THURSDAY;:-
Maple Sua ah. In consequence of
the openness of the weather for the past
week or so, the manufacture of maple or
"homemado" sugar has already been com
menced in this vicinity. This branch of
domestic manufacture is a big thing in
Cambria county, almost every farmer en-
crajrinir in it. We are not advised a3 to
the quantity of the article annually turn
ed out, " neither will we hazard a -guess j
but wc do know that it nmounts to a large
figure larger than many have any idea
of. It meets with a ready sale at ten and
twelve cents per pound.
Talking of maple sugar, we are re
minded of a little incident that occurred
some years ago, which comes in good sea
.son : Several ivild youths, each of whom
was possessed of a sweet tooth, were seized
one ne Sunday with a desire to have
some saccharine refreshment. Knowing
that the good old settlers in the country
were strict church-going members, they
thought the coast would be clear and they
would have a sure thing of it. Accor
dingly, they wended their way tj the
"camp" of astauneh old farmer, and after
considerable searching, were fortunate
enough to draw from its place of con
cealment the kettle containing the half
made sugar. All hands immediately
went in, and the syrupy liquid diminished
at a fearful rate. Their pleasant pastime,
however, was brought to an un looked for
conclusion' by -the sudden appearance in
their very midst of the lord of the manor,
who bore every indication of rage in his
countenance and likewise a good sized
switch in his hand. The boys made a
rush and vanished all save one. This
unlucky one was grabbed ere he had time
to put a fenee betweeu himself and pursu
er, and heavy and fast rained the blows
on his devoted head, shoulders, and else
where. "O-oh, do-o-o-nt !" yelled he,
"please don't lick me I lem'me go and
I'll pay you for all the sugar I took!"
The old gentleman paused a moment:
"Diaovl penvccdJiih ! I not want you to
pay me ; I want to pay youV And the
birch again rose and fell in measured
beats cn that peaceful Sabbath day.
Whereupon our informant left.
I1ailro.ai Watchman Killed. The
Pittsburg Dispatch states that on Saturday
evening of last week, John Fitzgar, a
watchman on the Pennsylvania llailroad,
was killed by being run over by a freight
train at Whipporwill straight line, live
miles east of Gallitzin, this county, under
circumstances that give rise to suspicion
that he was foully dealt with. It was
Fitzgar's duty to watch and keep the track
clear, and he wa3 in the performance of
this dutv a few minutes before his death,
a woman having observed him walking
along the road withji lighted lamp in his
hand.
A small wouud, supposed to have been
inflicted with a sharp instrument, and not
by anything about the train, was observed
in the center of his" forehead, while his
head rested on one rail, his feet on the
other, and his lamp, with the light extin
guished, was fouud on the end of a tie on
the other track these facts creating the
opinion that the man was first killed and
then placed between the rails, to cover up
the deed.
The deceased resided at Lock port, and
leaves a wife and four children. A cor
oner's inquest was to have been held on
Monday morning.
Steam Saw-Mill Burned. On Sat
urday night last, the steam saw-mill in
Summcrhill township, about two and a
half miles from Portage station, owned by
Jonathan Robinson, of Altocna, was com
pletely destroyed by fire. The fire occur
red about two o'clock, A. M., on Sunday
morning, and as the fire in the engine
room had been extinguished at three
o'clock on Saturday afternoon, it is pre
sumed to have been the work of an incen
diary. We undei-stand that threats to
burn the mill had been made during the
week. The property destroyed is estima
ted to have been worth 2000. The ma
chinery was much damaged. The mill
was a new one, Mr. Bobinson having just
completed the erection of the machinery.
No arrcst3 have yet been made, butit is to
be hoped that the perpetrators of the das
tardly deed will be brought to justice.

Irish Wit. A sturdy son of the Em
erald Isle, a day or two since, Wended his
wav into a certain store, and gracefully
doffing his tile, politely eolicited the at
tention of the proprietor for a moment.
After making known his inability to read
writing, he said, "Yer honor, I hould in
my hand a letther from the girl o' me
heart, and would yez be pleased to make
known til me its contents V The propri
etor began to read, when Patrick, with
extended hand, exclaimed : "Will yer
honor plaze put this bit of wool in yer
cars, so that ye can't hear the contents ?
It's private, yer honor knows I" The let
ter was read wi'h becoming gravitj', and
with seeming ignorance of its contents j
but Patrick himself let the cat out of the
bag by exclaimiacr, "By jingo, and it's
myself that'll marry her, and yez can fur
nish the wedding suit as soon as yer honor
pleases' Patrick was suifed, and so any
other person can be, at a low price, by
calling at C- 11. Jones' store, one door east
of Thompson's Mountain House.
The Treason of Gen. Twiggs.
Dispatches reached the War Department
this morning, announcing t hat u en. I wiggs
had dismissed and disbanded his whole
force iu Texas, consisting of nearly 2500
men, and left them unprovided with means
of transportation. Several officers had
started for home with nothing but their
side-arms. This act of treasoi has not
excited any great surprise, as Gen. Twiggs'
disaffection has long been suspected, and
his recent appointment in the Georgia
Army justified the reasonable expectation
that he would betray his trust, at any fa
vorable opportunity. lie had obtained
leave of absence tome time ago. Xo
doubt is entertained that this was the
result cf an understanding with Jefferson
Davis, and was superinduced by the belief
or knowledge that the troops in Texas
were to be ordered away. lie intended
to deprive the Government of their use
at this time. It is unfortunate that he
was not taken prisoner by some gallant
and daring ofheer, and consigned to the
doom of a traitor.
Gen. David E.Twiggs was Lorn in Geor
gia, and entered the U. S. Army in 1842.
He fought with distinction . throughout
the Mexican war. He has been in com
mand of the Texas Department for seven
or eight years, with occasional absence on
leave. It is stated at the head quarters
of the army in New York, that be had
about oOOO men under his command.
An olhcial letter was received at the
Quarter-Master's ofnee in New York, three
days ago, which stated that Col. Waite,
who was then at Camp Verde, in Texas,
would immediately relieve Gen. Twiggs
when he should reach San Antonia.
The cause of Gen. Twiggs' removal was
said to be his supposed disaffection to
to the Government of the United States.
The shock of such a surrender of the
Army property by so leading a General
has been great, among military and naval
men in that quarter, and is ill-contrasted
with the course cf Maj. .Anderson, the
Kentuckian, who has the same political
sympathies as Gcueral Twiggs. The
fact that Gen. Twiggs, is thu3 derelict,
in order to win :t Georgia commission,
aggravates his insensibility to duty and
honor.
Parson Brown low continues to up
hold the Union, in spite of the threats of
Secessionists, who have declared that they
will hang him. The Parson has designa
ted the day he prefers for the hanging,
and invites the public to witness the ex
hibition, promising to make a Union
speech under the srallows. A late number
of his paper, the Knoxville Wit'y, contains
the following :
"God be praised for the odium already
attached to secession and its advocates,
and for the certain prospect of their de
scending to a traitor's grave, and finally
to a traitor's hell 1 The Senators of seven
States have been sitting in their seats as
Senators, sicorn to support the Constitu
tion of the United States, and to act a3
the privy counsel of the President, and at
the same time they were holding secret
meetings, plotting the overthrow of the
Government and Constitution they had
sworn to sustain and support. I consider
Benedict Arnold and xaron Burr patriots
and honest men compared with these
traitors and perjured villains. I certainly
have no desiic to live under any Govern
ment organized by such corrupt, wicked
and hell-deserving men as these I This
whole scheme for dissolving the Union
was originated and carried out by corrupt,
designing and disappointed Southern pol
iticians, who, failiug to control the Gov
ernment, resolved upon its ruin. There
are better men iu hell, suffering the ven
geance of eternal fire, than the Southern
leaders in this secession movement. This
T say as a Southern man, one bora and
raised here, and intending to live and die
here. All this I will continue to say as
long as I have breath to speak, or strength
to write."
Wants to Secede Again. The Rich
mond Whig eays that nothing but the blast
of ridicule which would follow, prevents
South Carolina from seceding from the
New Somthern Confederacy. It finds it
self in the position of the pig which tried
to break out of the field, by going through
a crooked, hollow log in the fence. Both
ends opened inside the field, and its swi
nish amazement at finding itself still in
confinement, was not more amusing than
the present attitude of South Carolina.
