One of the most singular freaks of nature that ever came, to our knowledge was to be seen on Tuesday at the stable of Mr. E. E Evaus, in this boro., An the .shape of a deformed calt, all the Tegs of which had been inverted, as if by extension, parallel with the body, so that while the proper sides of the flanks were outward, the legs were pointing upward over the back. As a consequence, the bind parts-were thrown forward, so that the rump was nearly mid way between the fore and the hind legs. The ribs, the stomach, ' and the entrails were thrown ash were on the calf's back. What was properly the inner side of the ribs was outward, and between the ribs, and hanging over them, was the viscera enclosed in the usual sao or pouch. The head was perfect, but thrown down be tween the fore legs. In case the calf would have walked, the head would have been in the position described, the ribs would have stood on the back, somewhat like the hump of a dromedary but with out any hide or covering other than the sac that enclosed them and the viscera, the fore part of the hind logs would have been to the rear, and the rump would have been under what should have been the body. This singular deformity was living until a short time before it was calved. The cow that gave existence to it is "doing well." A Case of Conscience. There is a story afloat with reference to a singular case of conscience which may, and again which may cot, be true. We give it as we heard it. It will be remembered that three or four weeks ago, an old man named Bryan, residing in Munstcr township, this county, was robbed of a considerable sum of money by five rufSans. The circum stances attending the robbery were pecu liarly aggravating, a system of torture having been introduced in order to com pel the old man to disclose the where abouts of his money. Though diligently sought for, no trace was ever fouad of the robbers. The other day, nearly the en tire amount of money stolen was placed in bank in a neighboring towu to the credit of Mr. Bryan. The story goes that one of the r obbers divulged the secret of the robbery in the confessional, and that the Holy Father rtfued to grant him absolu tion for his sins uu'less he made restitution of the money stolen. Believing it better to icrego the money and the pleasures it would bring than to lose his own soul, he acted on the suggestion of the priest, with the result above stated. Strict Enforcement of i'hb Law. Some time ago, a citizen of Carbon tp., Huntingdon county, brought five" hun dred suits for his use and the uso of the Directors of the Poor of Huntingdon county against the Powelton Coal & i.'on Co., together with some one hundred ana forty suits against Wm. A. Orbison, for making and passing shinplastcrs in viola tion of law. The suits were lately tried before a Justice, and, a clear violation of law having been proven, judgments were entered against tho defendants for five dollars and costs in each case, amounting in the aggregate to $3,200 and costs. A Fugitive. One day last week, a girl named Elizabeth M'Cune, oged six teen years, left the home of her adopted mother in Altoone, and went to Pittsburg. The cause of this step i? not given, but is probably to be found in the fact that Liz zie is a romantic girl, and wanted to have an adventure. Tho adopted mother fol lowed to Pittsburg and put the police on her track, and Saturday she was discover ed living as a domestic in a private house, and was arrested. She was handed over to her mother, who carried her back to Altoona. What is its Tendency ? As various exchanges have been from time to time discussing the state of our country's mor als, and have intimated the increase of the most horrid of crimes by giving statistics to show that the ratio of births is alarm ingly on the decrease, we would respect fully inquire as to the tendency of all such advertisements as the following : "Janitor Wanted. A man and his wife, who have no children, to do Janitor work in the College, Pittsburg. References requi red," ic. Trouble among the Colliers.- The coal miners at Gallitein, like the coal mi ners at Lily's and other places in this county, have been on a "strike" for high er wages for some weeks past. Serious disturbances growing out ot this state of affairs have occurred at the former place. In a personal difficulty between two op eratives, pistols were used, with the re sult that oae of the parties was shot thro' tho hand. The Rev. Wm. Lloyd and family de parted hence on Tuesday for Library, Allegheny county, where they will ia fu ture reside. Mr. L. has accepted the pastorate of a ehureh ia that place. LO CAL CORRESPONDENCE. STAQHATIOH IN COA1 -AOTIVITV IS X.CHBX---MAPLB SUGAR. TIRI COLD WIAIBIK, C.-' Hemlock, April 1, 1867. To the Editor of The-Alleghahiaii: ; . " " Notwithstanding the stagnation in coal here, business is looking up. Thp lum bermen are becoming very active. Messrs. Frank Conrad & Co. in town, John Wil kin below town, and Johu Hamilton above town, are all doing a good business, while Messrs. Miller & Boice, of Indiana coun ty, are erecting a steam saw-mill a short distance from here, which is expected to be put in operation in a few days. Our neighbors, the farmers, have turned their attention to making maple sugar, with rather good success. ' Quite an excitement was created on Saturday by the kitchen of tho Laurel Run Exchange taking fire very mysteri ously. The flames were extinguished, however, before any serious damage had been done. Yesterday was a pleasant day, but this morning is cold and blustry. The robin and. bluebird have disappeared, and of spring's feathered choristers there remains to us only a single woodcock, whose me lodious warbling is heard all day long. "Moving day" to-day, and everything topsy-turvy. O. For many years there has been an urgent call for a reliable Live Stock Insurance Company '; but the difficulties which always stand in the way of establishing a new insu rance system seems to have precluded all respectable attempts to establish a substan tial office of this kind. At length attention has been turned to the matter in the right quarter and Hartford has started an office partaking of the solid features which charac terize that great insurance centre. The Hartford Live Stock Insurance Com pany originated with Qeo. D. Jewett, and its management will be guided by a divers and enlightened insurance experience. The his tory of the business in England for half a century has been thoroughly investigated, and the rates hive been calculated from ex tensive data. It is scarcely necessary to urge upon the reader the utility of such an office. To numerous cases it will , before long be found an indispensable safeguard against loss wmcn mignt be irreparable, lo tue poor teamster, farmer, &c, all the reasons which enforce fire insurance apply with two-fold force to live stock insurance. The company insures against loss by death from any cause, and also against loss by theit. The list of as3ets affords ample guarantee for certain indemnity in the event of loss. As might have been anticipated, the bus iness of the Hartford Live Stock Company has rapidly extended west and east. A large relative proportion of the policy holders are wealthy owners of most valuable animals. Dexter, Dan Pice, Lucy, Stonewall Jackson, and many other of the most noted horses in the country are insured in this company. The owners of such horses are congratulating themselves that t last an office has beea fouud with whose security they could be sat isfied. American Exchange and Review Characteristic. C. T.
