late liquor laW.

handsomely. fitted up his establishment for
the accommodation of visitors. ice Cream
can be had at his saloon every evening—and
the choiCest sweetmeats, at all times.
IN DEMAND—Mechanics and Laborers.—
The hundreds and thousands out of employ
ment in the cities, could find constant employ
ment at good wages, if they would go where
they are wanted.
SNARES JEWELRY ESTABLISHMENT .-A
larger assortment of Jewelry, Watches, Fan
cy Articles, &c., than usual, now on hand.—

filled with one of the finest stocks of goods
ever brought to the " ancient borough." The
ladies will find everything that is beautiful
arid fashionable in his selection—and gentle
men have not been any less provided for.—

Miscellaneous Works of Richard Penn Smith,'
is upon our table. It contains 326 pages of
literary -reading in prose and poetry of the
highest merit. For sale by Wir. COLON, cor
ner of Montgomery and Railroad streets.
HUNTINGDON AND BROAD TOP RAILROAD.-
This railroad is doing a big business—an im
mense amount of coal is being daily trans
ported to the east; but owing to a scarcity
of miners it falls far short of supplying the
demand. Several new mines will be opened
as soon as the hands can be procured.
The railroad track has been completed to
their station house on Railroad street.
Under the superintendency of Mr. JAMES
BOON, the motive power of the road is being
managed to the entire satisfaction of all con
cerned, while the other affairs of the Com
pany are rapidly approaching to a complete
and thorough organization. Much credit is
due that gentleman for the efficiency and en
ergy with which he has discharged the duties
appertaining to his appointment. He .is the
very man for the place.
A BREAK.—The basin at this place was
suddenly- emptied on yesterday morning.—
The water found its way thiough the bottom
of the basin into an old culvert, which, with
about 20 feet of the towpath bank was wash-
ed into the liver.
PERSONAL.-NOTICE EXMAORDINART
On a former occasion we gave warning to the
individual .who, on every oppportunity, pock
ets the Hollidaysburg Standard from our news
table. The game was repeated three weeks
ago and last week. Several other important
and interesting exchanges also disappeared
last week as mysteriously, before we had the
time to open them. It is an act of kindness
We delight in to afford an honorable neigh
bor the privilege of perusing our exchanges,
but we give no one a license to commit petty
larceny. We plainly tell you, whoever you
are, our patience with you is entirely, ex
hausted; and if the theft is-repeated and we
discover you, your name will appear in print
without our . compliments. Now, in order to
save you, this mortification as well as ourself
that last resort for protection from your light
fingers; we will instruct you how to proceed;
After reading this notice, procure a'slip . of.
paper, pen and ink, and set down, or if you
are not too lazy you may stand up, and write
as follows:
BuyrnacnoN, April 30, 1856..
0. AI TuAuon, Esq.—Dr. Sir : I enclose
one dollar and fifty cents, for which please
send me a' copy of your paper for one year,

U' We learn from the " Journal" of this
week that A. W. Benedict, Esq. and: Col. S.

delays are dangerous. See advertisement in
the columns of this paper. •
HARDWARE STORE.—The Hardware Store
of Messrs. JAMES A. BROWN & CO. is one of
the most extensive in this section of the State.
You can get any article from them in that line
of business, besides many others not classed
as Hardware. • A general hardware store was
much needed in this community---they have
supplied•the deficiency, and should be well
patronized.
A New Song
After. the terrible long and severe winter
through which we have just passed, the few
genial spring days which have visited us,
make us join with more than usual good-will
in the following hymn of thanks for '• pleas
ant weather," written by Gen. Geo. P. Ador
ris, of New York. :
Thank God for pleasant weather !
Chant it, merry rills !
And clap your hands together,
Ye exulting hills ! -
Thank Him, teeming valley !
Thank Him ; fruitful plain !
For the golden sunshine,
And the silver rain !
Thank God, of good the Giver!
Shout it, sportive breeze !
Respond, oh tuneful river !
To the nodding trees.
Thank Him, bud and bird ling !
As ye grow and sing!
Mingle in thanksgiving
Every living thing !
Thank God, with cheerful spirit,
In a glow of love,
For what we here inherit,
And our hopes above!—
Universal Nature
Revels in her birth,
When God, in pleasant weather,
Smiles upon the earth !
S. of T.
At a regular meeting of Keystone Division
No. 48 S. of I'., held April 26, 1856, the fol
lowing preamble and resolutions were adopt
ed :
Whereas, It has pleased an All-Wise Prov
idence to call from life, usefulness, his friends
and associates, our beloved Brother, P. W. P.
ARTIIUR H. CLARK . ,-and while we bow with
reverent submission to the will of Him "who
doeth all things well," yet we deem it right
and proper for the sake of theiiving to give
a considerate and sober expression of our
heart-felt sorrow for his loss, therefore
Resolved, That in the opinion of this Divis
ion, by the death of Bro. A. H. Clark, the
community has lost an enlightened, patriotic,
upright and useful citizen, and the Order of
the Sons of Temperance an able, zealous, and
consistent advocate.
Resolved, That we respectfully tender to
the family and friends of our deceased Brother.
our sympathies, on account of their afflicting
bereavement, with the expression of an hum
ble hope that He who has thus seen fit to
afflict may also see meet, when his time shall
arrive, to administer sustaining consolation.
Resolved, That-a copy of these resolutions,
attested by the R. S. under the seal of the Di
vision, be sent to the widow of our deceased
Brother, and that they be published in the
Mifflin and Huntingdon County papers.

Herald please copy.
POUR DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE
NEW YoilK, April 23.—The steamship Ara
go, with H'vre and Southampton dates to the
9th inst., has arrived.
Nothing has been heard of the missing
steamer Pacific, and the report made by the
vessel that arrived in Spain from Newfound
land, in regard to lights of a steamer seen in
the ice, is not regarded as furnishing any clue
to her fate.
Flour is unchanged as regards. good brands
but inferior Western is' neglected, and prices
have declined.
There has been heavy arrivals of bread
stuffs, and wheat and corn are easier, with a
slight decline.
The Peace Congress continues its sessions.
It is said that Austria gives trouble bpper
sisten tly refusing to fix the day for evacuating
the Principalities. Austria's pretext is the
necessity for 'protecting the country against
disorders, until the regular administration is
established, though bound by treaty' to quit
the Ottoman territory on the conclusion of
peace.
Russia is strongly opposed to the position
assumed by Austria. Further intelligence,
however, states that the Austrian troops were
leaving the Principalities.
- The Opinione of Turin gives, upon good
authority, the conditions contained in the
Treaty at Peace lately concluded at Paris.—
They are affirmed to be as follows:
First.—The Neutralization of the Black
Sea; Russia not to keep more than ten ships
of war armed, fur the defence of her coasts.
Second.— Nicolaieff ista be reduced to a
merchant port, with an engagement that no
ships of war shall be constructed beyond the
number agreed to as above.
Third. —Russiais to"allow consuls from all
the Powers in the ports of the Black Sea and
the Baltic.
Fourth.—The fortifications of Bomersund
are not to he reconstructed.
Fifth..—Russia cedes part of the territory
of Bessarabia, comprising the fortiess of Is
mail. '
Sixth.—Russia renounces the exclusive pro
tectorate of the Danubian Principalities.
Sevcntn..—Russia equally ren ouneess the
Protectorate of the Greeks in the Ottoman
Empire.
Eighth.—The free navigation of the Danube
is guaranteed to all the States, with Out excep
tion.
Ninth.—This article refers tb a commission
which is to be sent into the Principalitios to
study, the question of the frontiers and the
mode - of government:. •••
The Opinione denies that any stipulation
has been made in favor, of Sardinia, and that
the Italian question will be discussed at large
by the Plenipotentiaries in their supplemen
tary sittings.
Russia will, it is said, send an ambassador
to Paris, after the ratification of the treaty.
A PEEP AT nrats.sra".—Fanny ,Fern, in her
Peeps from tender a Parasol, which she con
tributes to the New York - Ledger, has taken
a peep at herself. 'Hear her rattle : •
"And here, bythe rood, comes Featly Fern!
Fanny is a woman. For that she is not to
blame, though, since she first found it out, she
has never ceased to deplore it. She might
be prettier, she might be younger. She might
be older, she might be_uglier. She might be
better, she might be worse. She has been
both over praised and over-abused, and those
who have abused her worse have imitated
and copied her most.
"One thing may be said in favor of Fanny;
she was not, thank Providence, born in the
beautiful, backbiting, sanctimonious, slander
ing, clean, contumelious, pharisaical phid
dlede-dee, peck-measure city—of Boston."
SEVERE REsumE.—The determination of
Henry Ward -Beecher and other bullies to get
up a civil war in Kansas, by putting Sharpc's
rifles in the hands of silly emigrants, calls
forth the following notice from the lowa State
Democrat :
"When, 'in the name of God Almighty,'
the thirty-five hundred Protestant clergyman
clergyman demanded of Congress a repeal of
the Nebraska act, we did not dream they
would dare disgrace their heavenly calling by
openly advocating civil war, butchery, and
bloodshed."
Riots in Erie !
ERIE, April 25.—A street fight occurred
between young Walker and a Mr. Cochran.—
Cochran was whipped, and from this grew a
general row,. the 4 Constitution" newspaper
office being gutted and burned. The rioters
are firing a cannon, and it is proposed to de
stroy the houses of the Railroad men. -
More Troubles in Kansas
CHICAGO, April 26.
A dispatch frown Leavenworth, states that
on the 22d, Sheriff Jones, while attempting
to arrest a man who was implicated in the
late difficulties, was resisted by a body of
300 armend men. Govenor Shannon had or
dered out the military.
Forged Land Warrants
WASHINGTON, April 26.
The amount of forged land warrants alrea
dy discovered exceeds one million of acres.—
The investi g ation is still in progress, and new
frauds are daily coming to light.
