One of the cold days of last w«ck a
german, whose name wedid not learn.was j
hauline a barrel of water, with a horse
and cart belonging to Mr Zimmerman.
T*T fStlir ****!>»«"■«« eart. and dri- J
rer. all tumbled over of the ,
bridge, south of this place. The hors
had his letr badly fractured and had to be >
shot, and the driver was very badly injur
ed.beingcut and bruised severely about the 1
head and face. We presume his injuries
will not prove fatal however.
Lceture.
Wo arc requested to announce that
Itcv. •> . li. Brougb, present teacher in
the SVithcrspoon Ir.vtitutc, will deliver n
lecture in the Courthouse on Thursday ,
evening, tho 28th at OJ o clock, i
subject. "Agriculture." We bespeak for j
this gentleman a full attendance. The I
more so, as we learn that this is a subject
to which the Professor has niven much j
attention. Let our farmers from tbesur- j
rounding neighborhood, come out, as we
will have good moonlight. The lecture
is free.
I*®- We are in roccipt of two sermons
delivered on Thanksgiving day, by Itev.
Kean of Frecport. and Bov. Sarvcr of
respectively. Had they came
to hand a couple of days curlier, they
could have been published lit once, com
ing at the time they did tbis is impotsible.

cer.
R. M. M'Lure Esq. the retiring
officer, carries with him tho good will of
all. It is all the-praise a faithful officer
could desire, to Uave Siiid of him as we
can say of Mr. M'Lure, that during bis
term of office, we'never heard either par
tics or concil comfitlin of his conduct in
any rc<|icct. While wc have no doubt
he guarded the interests of the common
wealth, be at the samo time, never stood
in the way of such a settlement as the
best interests of society scorned to re
quire. , ,
SSaT" A sad accideut occurred recently,
in the oil regions, tho particulars of j
which are not'known to us; but according j
to our best information. Mr. Billing&ly, I
son-in-law of .Mr. John Gi 1 ot Slippery
rock township, this coynty. was driving a j
team and wagon across the tailroad track
—other teams were before liiui so that
he coul3 not ibove forward as fast as he
otherwise might—the train cauie along, 1
his horses ■.became frightened, and, in
some way, failed to got off the track.—
The train passed over the wagon, smash
ing it completely, fcilliug one of his horses
instantly, and iujuring hiui so seriously
that he died in a tew hours. His remaios
was brought home to his family in this
county, who4iad, but a short time before
their arrival learned the sad news.—
The sorrow inflicted by this sad (ii p?n
saiion of Providence, is easier imwagiu
od than described.

While all our exchanges arc welcome
visitors ; there are some that seem more
like iudispensablcs than others. While
there is much in the New York Tribune
for instance, that we do not approve.—
Still we would feel lost in the political
world did we not read its political "l«ad

us in the political wovl I,I tho Journal
is iu the business and Gnnncial world.—
From its columns we have not only the
commercial and fiinanuial interests and

examined, their defects exposed and im

Murderers Coiivleted.
The trial of Hnwser and Bowser, at
F.bensburg, Cambria county, for the mur
der of Pjllie l'aul and Cassie Munday,
on the 7th of June last, has been brought
to a close, and resulted in the conviction
of the privmers, and their sentence to bo
| hung Tlic murdar was one of the most
brutal and hor.iblo ever perpetrated, and
] for a time seomed involved in iinpenetra
| ble mystery. The defendants had served
' a term in tho penitentiary, for a burgla
:ry committed in A'legheqy." and while
there they made the acquaintance of twu
; other prisoners, who know old Pol ie Paul
' and believod that she had consideiable
tuonej - . The lonely mountain hut ot tho
defenceless old woman, was a place which,
i i" the opinion ot these daring burglars, j
; »obberg and (if najjjJ be) murder could !
bo committed with unpunity. They plan
' ned the robbery before gettiug out of j
prison, and consummated the murder in
a few days after visiting the neighbor
-1 I hood. Tliey then returned to Allogheny,
1 aqd doubtless felt secure—but one of
' those, trifling circumstances woiph so fre
quently lead to the detect.on of murder,
bad occurred in this case. A negro con
fined in an adjoining cell iu the peniten
tiary, had overhead the conversation
which passed between Muwser aud Bow
ser. and after hearing of the murder, he J
made kuown this fact, which led to their
arrt-ct aud posyiction. Another remark
able fact is reported in connection with
. this ci<o. The mother of Miss Mun lay,
, i an aged lady, states that soon after the
commitment of Howser and Bowser to
the Ebensburg jail, she had a drcaiu, in
whip); she plainly saw her daughter strug
gle with her murderer, aud heard har
1 cry'-help," "mother." She could reuiem
l ber the features of the man whom she
: saw in the bloody t act. and the dream'
' made so deep an iuipressiou on her mind
;' that she determined to visit the prison
, ers in the jail, and see if she could rec
| oguiso the murderer of her daughter.—
. The inmates wero all placed in a row, and
( tlte ol<j lady closely scrutinised them,one
after another, yntil her eyes fell upou
' Bowser, when,stating buck, she exclaim
|«d : " l r ou are murderer of my child."
