The first thing a young man does on seeing a friend a ith a new hat on is to take it off and serenely try it on his own head. When a young lady sees an acquaintance with Ler new bonnet on, ahe just lifts her nose serenely and wonders "where the thing got that fright." Between thirty and forty Snyder county people attended court last week. They were chiefly from SeKnsgrove, and came over on tbe railroad at excursion rates.

The policy of President Hayes has so be fogged the Democracy, that they do not know where to ster their political craft.

The Fish Commissioners of this State sent two thousand brook trout to Wm. M. Allison, Esq , last week, te be distributed at his discretion. The people of Mifflin and vicinity will be pleased tat he selected Lost Creek as tbe stream into which to put the 2000 young trout. He put them in that stretch of the stream that ia embraced in the distance between the Zook and Bergy mill dama. By ao doing, Big Run, an im portant tributary of Lost Creek, will also be stocked with "speckled beauties.' There waa an effort made last winter to prevent fishing for a period of years of time in all streams which bad been stocked with fish, and those who desire to angle la Lost Creek, had better acquaint themselves, as to whether the bill passed, so that they may not be caught in the meshes of the law. During the whole time of tho Com munion service of tbe Presbyterian congregation of this place, eonimeneing last Friday eveuing, Rev. Mr. Chiches ter, of tbe Seoond Presbyterian Church of Altoona, did the preaching. All the sermons preached were directed to professing cbnrob members, more than to non-professing people, eksepting tbe sermon on Sabbath evening-. It was the last sermon of the series, and was directly addressed to those outside the fold. The text for this ringing sermon was founded in '2d Samuel, 24f A Ch'pltr, all of which tbe 'reverend geutleman read. The field of tbe discourse cannot be mote full j stated than by quoting from the latter clanse of tbe 13th verse of the chapter just stated, which read: "Now advise, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me." It was a question put to King David by a prophet, as to which of three calamities then hanging over him, be would choose to have visited on him for Ibis stag against the Lord.

How do you ad vise Now, cn this blessed Sabbath evening, at the close of this impressive Communion season, is the Time At this point the preacher proclaimed his commission to ask for an answer, and with eagerness gleaming from his eves, and beaming from every linament of faoe, he shouted "Give me an answer."

Thb Newburyport Herald sajs a novel fight was witnessed In that city on Sun day between a rat, hen and rooster. A ben scratching near a water cask, was suddenly interrupted by a huge rat, and neither would give way. Finally the hen made a pass with be beak, wbich tbe rat dodged, and then tbe rat made a spring for her neck, which was not a success. At this juncture a cluck from the ben brought np the rooster, who, like a gallant cock, came into tbe ring to take a band himself. Then commenced a triangular scrimmage with teeth and beaks. Tbe ben bad lent him one right on the smeller, wbich seemed very much to anger the rat, who gathered for a spring on his antag onist, which was prevented by the cock lighting upon him and putting both spurs into his bodj, performing tbe sol emn tragedy of harikari.

" Missed again. The carrier had to bring it back to the office. It will not go till the next train eomes along." Tlml is what you can hear frou a number of Post-masters in the Juniata Valley anv wetk vou eboose to a.-k about the mail, and tt has been so r since the mails have been taken iS the Way Passenger trains, and put on t!a through trains, to be dropped of and taken on without stopping tbe caVs. Tfa-ire is a general eomplaiut against the Govern ment mail service for the way mails are carried, missed, nils-carried, and knocked about. Post offices are (or tbe people, tbe Whole people, and not for the Government Administration to sow the seeds of estrangement than to neglect the small things Tbe delivery of a letter, tbe delivery of officials, but to a reading and writing nf inti'.Is has there been radb an unpopular delivery as that now in use in the Juniata Valley. Who is to blame ? U'lil the Department at V ashingtnn remedy it, by delivering a mail bast and Wen on tbe mails may be decently taken, and on which mails may be decently put. The stop at but a few mail stations in the devised a craiy way rouatcb the mail company to stop. Tbe plaii i to erect alongside of the mail car track, a post with an arm to it, and a ataiiway up to a platform, on which the mail carrier stands to hang the mail-bag on the arm of the post, where it remains till the train comes along. There is attached to tl.e side of each mi.il ear, an arm, or crane, that is shoved out by the mail ageut on the cars, on tbe approach to every mail bag post, or sinticn, to catch the mail-bag hanging on ths sr;! of tbe post. When theie are only a few letters in the bag it is ofimi caught, but when there is anything lik a bulky mail, the bag. in the majority of cases is knocked off the post and sent whirling away, to fall on the ground, to be sjrsin taken up by tbe carrier, and returned to the office, whence it again is sent when the next mail train comes along. Some times the bag is not knocked to the ground so that the carrier can get it, being struck at sucb an angle that it is burled under the cars and torn to pieces. Wherever there is a dishonest n-an in 'he mail service, he tsk'-s advantage of such mishaps as are mentioned, to steal, or open letters and packages, and blame it on the defectie delivery system, a-.J tbu the evil of an outrageous mail delivery is multiplied an hundred-fold by opening the door to bad men to play their arts. In order to make it clear to all who have not the time to visit a mail bag post and see how a full bag is not taken in, but knocked off skyward and on it fall returned to the office, our special artist bas produced tbe above picture, tbe actual representation of which may be seen almost every day, somewhere in tbe Juniata Va'.lcy.
