A New Court. The Johnstown Tri-
lune last week published the draft of a
bill which has bean "prepared and will be
immediately presented to the Legislature,
providing for the establishment of a Dis
trict Court in Johnstown. The bill pro
vides that the jurisdiction of . the said
Court shall extend to and embrace the
boros. of Johnstown, Conemaugh, Mill
ville, Cambria and Prospect, and that the
Court 6haH be one exercising all and sin
gular the powers and jurisdiction of the
Quarter Sessions and Commou Pleas of
Cambria county. Sections one, two, three,
four, five, six and seven of the bill estab
lish the Court, give it a name and juris
diction, and define its powers; section
eight provides that the powers of said
Court shall be vested in and exercised by
the President Judge and Associate Judg

belong to and constitute part ot the West
ern District cf the Supreme Court of
Pennsylvania; section twenty-two makes
it the duty of Justices of the Peace and
Constables within said district to make
returns to said Court of things return
able, &c.
This "New Court" question is a cheap
species of local excitemeut which Johns
town indulges in at least onco a year. It
appears to be as essential to the happiness
of the people of that eection as the daily
recurring drachm of poppy -juice is to the
opium-eater, or the frequent tod is to the
confirmed inebriate. The comparisou
might be further extended by tayicg that
the agitation of the "New Court" ques
tion, as in the case of the poppy-juica and
the tod, is intended only as a mere
temporary stimulant, under the influ
ence of which much superfluous froth,
and bombast, and bad blood may be safe
ly thrown off. Except on the broad
ground that all excitements and stimu
lants are hurtful, we do not see that ob
jection can reasonably be taken to the an
nual state of delightful agitation into
which the folks of Johustown work theni
eelvei upon the "New Court" question.
To be sure, a reaction must come, and this
plunges one into deeper depths of dullness
and inanition than before the excitement
but that is the concern of the Johnslown
ers. If -they can stand it, wo can. So
Ions as the county-seat of Cambria coun
ty remains within a short two-hours riue
of Johnstown ; so lorg as it contains a
court house large enough and well enough
conducted to accommodate all Johnstown
without detriineut to tle balance oi the
county, and the balance ot the county
without, detriment to Johnstown ; and so
long as the jail is kepc strong enough to
retain within its walls' any criminals thai
may come from Johnstown, so long will
the "New Court" excitement be harmless
and of no effect, except in'sofar as relates
to the reaction before spoken of.
Chapped Hands. Chapped hands ;
are always annoying. . They may, in a
great measure, be prevented from chap
ping by using very little soap, if any,
keeping it on as briefly as possible, wash
ing it off clean, and then finishing in
water to which a little vinegar is added
a teaspoonful to a pint of clear water will
answer. This neutralizes any alkali in
soap left on the skin, and gives a soft feel,
while it 6tops the destruction of tho cuti
cle, and saves chapping. The diluted
vinegar is also good as a Snal washing
after shaving the face, as it both saves
the skin and prevents the alkali from
bleaching the whiskers. A little tallow
or even thin lard, thinly applied at night,
or when going out into the cold air, to
the hands and face, if ofcapplug, (and well
rubbed off if necessary; goes far towards
preventing further chapping, and pro
motes- the healiner of cracks alrea
formed.
IIowser and Buser. A special
dispatch to the Pittsburg Dispatch, dated
Harrisburg, January 25, and published
in that paper of 26th, stated that the death
warrants of Howser and Ruser, the two
men lying in our county jail under sen
tence of death for the murder of Misses
Polly Paul and Cassie Munday, had been
signed by the Governor- This is uutrue.
The warrants have not yet been signed,
and it is more than likely that they will
be permitted to remain unsigned until af
ter the 15th in?t., on which day the writ
of error granted in the case is to be ar
gued before the Supreme Court.
Died On Saturday, 27th ultimo, at
his residence in Ebensburg, Mr. William
G. Williams, a much respected citizen,
aged about G5 Years. j
On the 24th ult., at his residence in
Munster township, Mr. James Parrish,
aged about 70 years.
On the 2Gth ultimo, Howard M., son of
Rev. T. M. and Elizabeth Wilson, of Eb

Convicted. We learn that Nicholas
lleilly, who was tried in the Blair couuty
Court last week for killing young Craw
ford, a clerk in a store in Ilollidaysburg,
was fcund guilty of murder in the first
