THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE. Huntingdon, April 2, 1856. LOCAL & PiaIISONAL NEW CARD PRESS.—We have just received a new Card Press, made to order by Mr. Gil liard..Dock, Engineer and Machinist, Harris burg. Our job work custom has increased to such an extent that we found it necessary to procure a press with which to print cards, circulars, 'notes, etc., and we are now fully prepared to do all such printing, in the neat est style, at good paving prices, for be it un derstood that we pay no customer 20 per cent, for the privilege of doing his job ! We have a large quantity of work on hand, but this need not deter others from sending in their orders. We will try to keep up with the de mapti—if we fail, we'll employ more help.— Call in, gentlemen, and take a look at our new press. P. S.--You can walk in without knocking at the door. A. HANDSOME PRESENT.—We acknowledge the receipt of two lithograph pictures, by the hands of Mr. William Crawford, from Messrs. Norris & Son, Philadelphia, and also a num ber of the United States Magazine, containing an interesting descriptive and well illustrated article on the " Norris Locomotive WorkS.' , The pictures are fine and beautifully colored representations of the Engine which we no ticed two weeks ago as having arrived from Philadelphia for the Huntingdon and Broad Top . Railroad, and as one of the largest and best ever seen in these parts. _lt weighs 24 tor.s and cost some $BOOO. The establish ment of Richard Norris & Son is one of the largest and most perfect in all its appurtenan ces in this or any other country. DIED.-A pet squirrel which has been in the possession of our family about 14 years breathed his last a few days ago. To all ap pearance it was sound in mind and body, and ate nuts, until the last, when it died without a struggle. The opinion of Billy is that it died of a atroke of—old age ! MurrwooicAmm F v.—or several days past the 'eon I examination of the students at this Mallemy has been progressing. The exhibition takes place this evening. The next session. will open on the first Wednesday of May. This institution is fast coming into notice as one of importance, and will yet, if it does not now, rank with the first educa tional institutions of the State. We can re commend it without the slightest misgiving, and hope it will meet with the encouragement which its position and facilities for educating deserve and should receive. SHIRLEYSEORG FEMALE SEMINARY.—We invite attention, to the advertisement of this Seminary in another column. It has been in existence for several years and very hand somely patronized, and promises to arrive at still greater prominence. Among its students are several ladies from the adjoining States, and we hope it will be well sustained by our own. It has special claims upon our own county; and while the location and climate are in their favor we see no necessity in pa rents and guardians sending young ladies elsewhere, at greater cost, for less advantage. Mr. and Mrs. KIDDER enjoy the reputation of being excellent teachers—and in every other qualification requisite and necessary for the proper and successful instruction of youth, they have'few if any superiors in this locality. understand that Mr. 0. C. B. CAR TER will arrive in town the lest of this -week with his fine assortment of Pianos, /Melode ons, &c. He has sold in Hollidaysburg within fifty days from 25 to 30 Pianos, some of which were $5OO instruments. This speaks for itself. He has requested us to publish the following card : • A CARD.:--The undersigned has had his at tention. called to a efforts that have been, and are now being, mak, in Hollidaysburg and Huntingdon, by Petiick Brunker, to induce certain parties to whom he lately sold Pianos, purchased by bim of J. E. Gould, of Phila delphia, to return said instruments, promising to replace them with others to be obtained from some establishment in Baltimore. There will be no difficulty in understanding the motives which prompt Mr. Brunker to pursue this extraordinary course, when it is known that Mr. Gould was compelled to resort to ex treme measures to obtain a settlement of his account, which at this time is unliquidated. A due regard for the interests of the house of E. Gould, alone could have induced me to publicly notice the conduct of Mr. Brunker, and I leave it with a discerning public to draw their own inferences. AMERICAN HOUSE, Hollidaysburg, March 25, '56. 1 All of his Pianos are warranted to give en-, tire satisfaction, or else the purchase money, with all expenses will be refunded. SERiO EIS ACCIDENT.—On last Thursday evening, our young townsman, Mr. Uriah Lewis, met with a, serious accident on the railroad at the town of Saxton, by being caught between the bumping beams of a car and locomotive, which broke his left leg above the knee and otherwise bruised him. He is under the care of Drs. Luden and Dorsey, and is doing well. • LOCK HAVEN AND TYRONE RAILROAD.-.- We learn from the Bellefonte papers that Mr. FALLON, President of the Lock Haven and Tyrone Railroad, was in that place a few days ago, and that he is making preparations to commence the construction of the road as soon as possible. What is being done in re lation to the Lewisburg and Spruce Creek Railroad 1 Who can tell 7 0. C. B. CARTER. THE WEATHER.--During the forepart of last week the weather gave every indication of approaching Spring—the sun was shining —the air quite pleasant—and the birds sing ing. This state of things lasted but a few days ; when we were quite reluctantly 'thrown back into the everlasting winter'—hot. fires in-door and Roman's overcoats out-door, were as much as ever in demand. At the time of writing, however, all the aforesaid indications of Spring have returned, and hope is strong that we shall soon fully realize the universal wish. Then Come ! Oh, come ! thou bast tarried long ! Come with the glory of light and song': Earth pines for thee on a thousand shores Where the billow breaks and the wild wind roars; There's a voice of wail 'mid the ancient trees Torn and tost by the wintry breeze: Gloom bath shrouded our pleasant bowers, Death hath blighted our vines and flowers, And every hour on its fleeting wing Bears away a prayer for thee,,Oh Spring ! Come ! _oh come ! we pine for thee . As pines the wanderer forliome, at bet!. ! As the captive pines in his lonely cell For the dashing waters and the breezy dell f We sigh for the influence that life renews, - For the spell of soft sunshine and balmy dews, For the genial airs and the pleasant:rain, To waken our blossoms and streams again. " I come, I. come ; I am coming back !" Thus answered a' voice from the Sun's bright track.-- "I will cloths the heavens' fair 'face with smiles, I will call the birdS from a thousand isles, The streams shall Hugh where the violets blow, The trees exult and the laurels glow, There's not a beauty, nor bloom, nor hue, That the charm of my presence shall not renew." RELIGIOUS NOTICE.—The Quarterly Meet ing of the Methodist Episcopal Church for Manor Hill Circuit, will be held at Wesley Chapel on the sth and 6th of April, Saturday and Sunday next. The services will be con ducted by. the Rev. J. POISAL, Presiling Elder.

HUNTINGDON COMMERCIAL SCHOOL.—SinCe the opening of the " Huntingdon Commercial School," some students have gone through a course, and are fully satisfied with their pro ficiency in the Science of Book keeping, and also with the system, Duff's "North Ameri can Accountant and .Commercial Calcnia tions," used here. This system seldom, it ever, fails to give complete satisfaction, as will appear from the following, tone of ex pression respecting, it : "No additional books, nor writing, are re quired by . this method; but, on the contrary, less writing and posting, with the satisfaction of knowing that no true balance can be had from the Ledger, so long as errors or omis sions exist between it and any of the minor books; and when errors exist they can easily ba detected. Your committee are so favor ably impressed with the proposed improved method of Mr. Duff, that they unanimously concur in the opinion of its utility, and that the public would be benefitted by adopting it." —Amencan Institute, N. Y. City. The Pittsburg Daily Union 'says: "Mr, Duff has for many years, been the acknowl edged head of his profession, the author of the most popular system of Bookkeeping in our language, and as a practical accountant, he has earned his title to that measure of pub lic confidence which he enjoys." The Wheeling Times says "This work is the production of a master hand, khe result of no ordinary experience in various departments of commerce." John B. Shepherd, Teacher of Bookkeeping, Columbia College, N. Y., after a year's trial of it in his class room, says : "The instruc tion conveyed by your book is more complete and practical than from any other book I have ever used;; The Journal of Commerce says : " Evi dently the production of one thoroughly vers ed in the alt and science of accounts, and artistic in his views and manners of elucida ting them." Although the number of commendations have been swelled to several hundreds, or per haps thousands, the above Will suffice to Chow the merits of Mr. Duff's " North American Accountant." It must - not, however, be sup posed that this system is only applicable in large business, or- that it requires more books and labor than single entry. This is thought by some. The fact is, double entry is the only system by which we can be sure that our books are correct, and it is applicable in large or small business, wholesale or retail, manufacturing or professional, mechanical - or farming—it is adapted to all, and requires no more books or labor. Every young man, whe ther he intends to become merchant, me chanic, farmer, or' professor, :should make himself acquainted with a thorough system. of Bookkeeping. It will save him many dol lars, prevent many perplexing settlements, charges of unfair dealing, and many other things which can better be imagined than de scribed; and last, though perhaps not least, he will have but little to fear in case of litiga tion. This system has been adopted in a number of instances in this place, and is giv ing entire satisfaction. P. MARRIED, In this borough on the 27th ult., by Rev. A. B.

LE.wisTowN.—Au anti-administration fiz zle came off at Lewistown-.on the 19th ult. A call issued to " the opponents of the" N ational Administration" brought together an immense crowd, variously estimated at from 25 to 50 men. A president was chosen, when E. E. Locke was appointed representative, and Reverend Thomas Stuart senatorial dele gate to the Rag-Tag Bob.:Tail Convention at Harrisburg. The meeting was compoSed en tirely of Dark-Lanternites--no Whigs par ticipated in the proceedings. Wm. H. Irwin, according‘o the Democrat, " arose and deliv ered himself of a speech, vvitiCh, in sentiment, was about half-horse and half-alligator. The " locofocos" he pitched into right and lat— he declared President Pierce had ruined the country, and if the people desire this glorious fabric of our fathers to hold together= another year, they must elect they nominees of the Rag-tag Bob-tail Convention." At this junc ture the crowd began to disperse, when some one moved for an adjournment. The Presi dent refused to put the motion, thinking prob ably that it had thus far been rather too small an affair for a Grand County Meeting of all " the.opponents of the present National ad ministration." A moment of profound silence ensued, when suddenly all arose, and quietly walked out ! I not even going through the usual form of adjournment !--The Spring election came off in Lewistown en Friday a week. The Democrat says it was amusing to see the energy and excitement manifested by the Da . rk Lanternites. Such a running around, drumming up of the tardy, and coaxing for votes was probably never before witnessed at a Spring election. Yet with all these extra ordinary efforts they did not gain an iota over previous elections; and in the West Ward they were completely routed ! In Decatur township the Democratic ticket was elected —last fall the K. N's had a large majority.— The protracted meeting in the Lutheran church has at length concluded. The whole number of souls converted during its progress was upwards of one hundred. HOLLIDAYSBURG.—The Standard says:— The tickets in Murray's Art Union are going off with great rapidity. Col.
