Some weeks ago the editora of the Dem ocrat and Begitter incurred expense in the employment of a special artist and engrjver to prepare a pictorial sheet on the announce ment of Mr. Tildt-n as President of the United States. But since the Great High Commission haa righteously declared Flori da and Louisiana for Mr. Hayes for Presi dent, our erring political brethren of the DtmvcTat and t.tguttr are disconsolate over the dead stock of artistic cuts.

L Guss , E-q , and published in bis paper, the Huntingdon Globe, will be read with interest by many who were acquainted with Mr. Augley du ring his lifetime, and will also be read with interest by those who bare no ao- quaititance with tbe condition of tbe ecuotry 70 yeara ago: DitD On the 8ihof February, 1877, ai his residence, iu Milfur.i township, Juniata eouuty, three and balf miles northwest of Mifatuiuan, llENBV Aiuair, at the age of 78 years, 10 mouth and 26 dya. Tbe deceased waa a brother of the mother of tbe Editor of tbe Globe. lie was born on Paxton creek, five miles from Uarrisburg, from whence his father removed, in tbe year 1803, to tbe place where tbe ann bas ju-t died. At that tiuij tbe country there was an a! must unbroken wilderness. There arere but eight settlers iu all that neighborhood, and no wagon road yet led iuto Licking Creek Valley. Tbey cut a road ont from tbe river at a point opposite Mif flintown. Grandfather Augbey was accompanied by John Farmer and family. As illustrating tbe life of our ancestors it n.ay be interesting to say that Grandfather brought with him, wheu he moved op, the first stove that was ever in that valley. It was a ten plate stove, cast by Curtis Grubb at rotuwell Furnace. People came tram miles around to see this atove as many ot them had aa yet never seen a stove. The flue limestoue laud was bought of fne MuCormick, wbo could not wake a living on it. He bad bought of one Calhoun, wbo bad bought it of old John McC:ellao, who about 1763 took np balf ol Milford township. McClellan once sold to John Hardy a tract of land extending west to a lne running Iroiu tbe creek to tbe moautaiu past tbe black burnt tree. Tbis included the Augbey farms, but McClellau manufac tured a bogus black burnt tree and sold the land to Calhoun. The laud, now in two farms, was not deemed worth at tbat time ibe trouble of a trip to tbe county seat to get tbe title secured. Uncle HeDry Aughey was man of great ene-gy and industry. He was one of the best and most substantial citizens in tbat section. He bad bis pecul arities, but thy were eccentrici ties rather than faults. He waa kind to-lbe poor, and honest in all bis deal ing. He was a rugged, hearty waa in bis youth, but the wheels of life worn out by age at last ceased to more.

Editor Sentinel tnd Republican : After long silence I will endeavor to pen a few items of news from tbis neighborhood Business is d'oll in every depart ment, and pvopie generally seetn to be of the opinion that if money does not get plentier, there will be bard times, and your correspondent rather coincides with that opinion. As to that article getting scarcer, we have no fears, because there is none circu lating now. Notwithstanding all this, people manage to keep in mo tion, but mostly on more economical plans than heretofore No doubt the lessons learned by the present strin gency in financial matters will be fol lowed by results which will be bene ficial to all those to whom eiuoation will do any good. We are now being educated in the school of economy, and, no doubt, the lessons learned will in many cases prove to be lasting ones. Oriental will have a change in the location of the Post Office shortly, ilr. Augustus Dinger has been ap poinied Post Master in place of II. K. Frymoyer. This will cause a re moval of the office to a point better calculated to accommodate the com munity for which it was established. The change is approved by the peo ple of the neighborhood generally. Mr. Abraham Stroup met with a serious accident the other day. He cat one of his fett with a hatchet that flew out of his hand while using it, making an ugly gash across the instep. lie is doing well- Mr. Fredetick B. Stroup, formerly a citizen of Susquehanna township, and at one time engaged in the mer cantile business, died a few weeks ago, at Downingtown, Pa. Our new Sheriff, "V. D. "Walls, Esq., was down here a few weeks ago, hold ing an inquisition on the lands for merly owned by Ephraim House, de ceased, to appraise the dower award ed by the Court to Margaret House, one of the widows of said deceased. The Sheriff was engaged in the inqui sition for three days, and during that time a goodly number of our citizens had an opportunity of becoming ac quainted with him. He made quite a favorable impression among our citizens. They do not now hate him any more than sheriffs are hated gen erally. In the proceedings of our last term of court I see that the Grand Jury recommended to have some kind of work prepared for ''tramps," who are now flocking in without number, to be fed at our county jail, at the ex pense of the tax-payers of the coun ty. In my opinion it would have been better if the Grand Jury had said, "Stop feeding them." These arrangements are all calculated to encourage vagrancy instead of dts couraging it It is not at all amaz ing to see the country overflowed with such characters, when it i.s a no torious fact that perfect chains of institutions are prepared throughout the length and breadth of the coun try, where they will be fed at public expense. The only wonder about the matter is that there are not more of them. In 1875 the tax-payers of the county paid $750, and last year $89G, for feeding tramps. But Juni ata county is not an exception, for so it is in all the counties through which main lines of travel pass. It is an outrage on the people of the whole State. Why is the tramp law allow ed to lie a dead letter on the books ? Why do not some of your Justices and Constables, who are sworn to maintain the majesty of the law, ar rest the tramps and hire them out, as the law provides ? If any tramps come around in the countrv, and are fed, we are told that we have no right to collect from the county; neither would it seem rijrlit to send them a distance of twenty-five miles to the county jail to get a meaL If they are worthy at all of our charity as a few no doubt are let them be fed wherever they call at meal times ; but I am speddng of that innumer able host who are induced to a life of vagrancy by tbe aforementioned ar rangements. As long as the Scrip tural injunction holds good that those " who will not work should not eat," just so long these arrangements are, in forty-nine cases out of fifty, an ill bestowed charity. Stop this at once, and those who are worthy will be taken care of in the districts where they properly belong, and those wbo might be more appropriately termed tcampt than tramps, would be com pelled to find a more honorable means of livelihood, or be taken care of by some other means. Make more ar rangements to feed them, and the number will increase daily. Stop it, and they will stay at home. Yours, &c., Amicus.

STO.VB, Ph. D., ' Feb-1 Principal. Phases of the Political iLrena Prisoners oat of Jail on Short Sentences or by Breaking Jail. In giauc.Dg over the. various phases tbat the political arena preseuta to tbe observiug cttiien, be ia surprised to bear how some men talk. There are men to be found in almost every com munity, at preseut, who seem to bare about as much principle as tbe average mule. We all know what tbat principle is, be seems to think no man bas a right to come into bis stable; if be does he is like'y to be greeted by a pair ol hoofs, no matter wbat the object of the man nisy be, even if it is to feed him, tbe mule invariably thinks himself aggrieved and presents his hoofs. Just so with seme of the men of to dav. (This principle is no better illustrated tbsn in the Democrat to party. Jhfj were over anxious to have route other method of learning which of the elec toral college rem rue in dispute isregn lar, than that heretofore observed now tbat tbey have had their way, they are still diati6ed. The Com mission is their child, born to satiaf; their clamor, !o satisfy their whims. Men rhoulj bi visited with severe pen alties for talking as some of theiu do. Men wbo talk of war in Congress should be called bouie by their constitusnts, they were not elected on a war platform. They have not been sent thi-ra to stir np a war. Every man tbat talks that wav. and in favor of aaasBinatine the President, if be is not the m&h he voted for is a coward in daylight, and an as aasin at night, and if war should come they would carpet bag it to a safe place. Tbe brave men are those who have little to say about war, and who have the greatest re'pect for the laws of the land. Those who talk of war, are tbe f.Kils and scalawags of the land, men of no principle, mon who are fit for everything mean, dirty, and corrupt. It is reported in for part of the county that all the ennrietn, and pris oners in tli jil in Mffilinfnwn have escaped. Why it is seareelv worth the trouble to put a man in jail, for in a day or two he ia sure to be at large seain, either under a abort sentence or by bresking jail. DonaLI. Cocolamus, Feb. 19, 1877.
