An exchange says : Some persons are in the -habit of punching or drilling holes through silver coins, whether for amuse ment or for what purpose we know not. Coin so defaced are not received by the Danks at their face value, but the bolder is obliged to Suffer a discount. If this were generally known we think there would be less number of coin thus defaced. Here is a bit of interesting information. The Indianapolis Journal says it had posi tive information, when party of Eastern delegate to tbe St. Louis Convention stopped at Indianapolis last year, that pledges were exacted and given that if Mr. Hendricks would accept the second place on the National Democratic ticket, he should have the first place in 180. Is this the secret of Mr. Hendricks' tremendous vigor ? A number of students attending Prince ton College were suspended for haling. It is said that President McCoah is deter mined to break np the habit. No school faculty should permit it, and where faculties fail to give protection to yonng men, the young men should protect themselves, even to tbe knocking of a bully or two into the "kingdom to come." Tbe country haa no respect for the assaults that are covered up under the name of "haling."

A. H. Parker's Churches -Bey- Mr- Folk, Bey. Mr. Berry and Mr. Boper off to the Moun tainsA Look in the Direction of the Promised Land, and Re turn. Speaking of recreation. Rev. E. E. Berry, of the Lutheran Church of this place, said : " I cannot say thst I believe in long jour neys and a continued season of recreation. I incline to the short periods of recreation, of few hours, a day. or a few days, in preference to the period thst embraces weeks of time. The Sweet loses when it comes in too large quantities, but when it is taken in small quantities, as desired, it is ever sweet. I am always refreshed for pastoral work, for preaching, by a ramble of a few hours in the wocds, in quest of game, or a quiet stroll by the water's aide to fish ; these things relresh me wonderfully and lighten my work Immeasurably ." Continu ing, he said, "I expect to go to Mifflin coun ty in a few days to fish to Bellet ilia, where Rev. Mr. Folk of the Lutheran church, Kev. Mr. Campbell of the Presbyterian church, and Mr. William Roper or the same village, will meet and join me in a trout fishing ex cursion in the country that liea off toward the Bare Meadows, and I would be glad, to have you go wi;h na " With pleasure we accepted the invitation to join the gentle men in recreation. Our outfit was complete, embracing old clothes to be used in traversing the bushes thai fringe trout streams among the moun tains, gum boots to keep feet dry in wading when such process should become necer sary, and fish-basket and section fish-rod, and a parcel of other things stewed away in a Valise-, large enough to begin a journey around the world with. t the day appointed, at the hour desig nated, S.35 P. M., We were at the station, each fully charged wiib enthusiasm for re creation, that the falling of a bri.ik shower of rain then, could not in the least dampen. it was the hour for the arrival of city paper. Mr. Berry invested in McClure's Timet, and to season np with, we bought a copy of Bennett's New York Herald. Three Turkish and Russian war maps gave it the appearance of a pictorial paper. We had scarcely got seated to trace out the intrica cies of the war situation, till a tonch on the arm, as gentle as frcm the hand of a woman, caused us to look whence it came. Our look encountered the full face of a medium sized dark-skinned man, wilh brown quiz- lical eye, turned -np nose, and unpleasant face generally. He wore a white plug bat, and fine clothe of the latest style. Said he, "Excuse oil-, but the newsboy has sold you mv Herald." With our experience in newspapers one glance was sufficient to con vince us that the paper in our poss ssioa bad not been Cut df the mwsooy's package till bought. It was smooth and niiruniple 1. The response wss, "No, sir; you never had this paper; but you and the newsboy for!t." However, not wishing to be short to the man, who still leaned from bis seat across the aisle toward us, we asked abera he had nserl iKe paper last. He said, "Down yon der,' pointing toward tbe front end of the car, and added, "I know the newsboy picked it up and sold it." We requested lain to go and look for the missing paper. He went, and soon returned, f ull of spology, h iving found it under a lady who sat in the seat he had formerly occupied. Just at thir juncture our eye caught sight of the name Seligmanj in the Herald tbe name of the Hebrew banker of New Tork, who was refused hotel accommodations at Judge Hilton's hotel at Saratoga, on ac count of being a Jew. Our intercourse with the stranCer across the aisle was quite suggestive, th.it bo was one of a class of men who jump at conclusions, Without first looking np proper evidence through w hich to reach a proper conclusion, and therefore he would be an index to the view of the class of his kind on tbe question of the right of the Jews. The pajer aaa held up and a finder placed to the name of Selig man, and he was asked, " What do you think of Seligman ?" Tbe answer wa not long Coming ; he went off a if touched by an electric battery. "Oh !" said he, "Selig man is nothing but a gluttonous Jew, a hog, and the reason Judge Hilton would not have him in his hotul, is found in the fact that the banter is such a glutton that be a ill rat fire or six times a day, and when he gets uncomfortably full he takes an emetic and vomits it out. It waa his vomit that that they could not stand at Die hotel." Of course all that was a fabrication, to let Hilton down from his unpopular and unju.-t position of race distinction in public houses, aud was evidence sufficient to t II where the traveler stood on the Hebrew question. Whether the story waa original with him, or whether he simply echoed it, could not bi learned, for the train reached Lewis town station about the time he closed bis remarks on the Jew. If the majority of people held his views, there would be many lion dens and fiery furnaces to destroy that peo ple. A Change of cars and a ride of seven miles brought ns to Reedsville, the end or our railroad journey. The objective point for the night was Belleville, a point eight miles up Kishicoquillaa valley. To get there we took a seat in a two horse stage, the only conveyance present to take passen gers from tba station to the village named. The man who runs it, doubtless never learned tbe process of packing sardine in sardine boxes, along the coast of the Mediterraean sea, but that's the business he should be at, or that of running a street car on acity pas senger railway. He packed eight passen gers and himself, bag and baggage, into the vehicle, and then Was on tbe lookout for more. Where he would have put others, one not possessed of his packing talent could not not even guess. The best farmer in the valley waa a pas senger. It is a source of regret that his name escaped our memory and cannot now be mentioned. A. L. Etnier, a Philadelphia shoe-dealer, a brother-in law of ex-Sheriff Loudon of this place, was passenger. Druggist Gibbony, of Bellevillej waa a pas senger. Three young ladies, who got out at Klshicoqnillas Seminary, a school four miles west of Reedsville, were passengers. There was quite a turnout at the Seminary as the stage drew np, and the ladie were heartily greeted. Every one about the in stitution seemed to be on the qui vtrc ; friends Were looked for j tbe great event of the season-Commencement day-was booked for the next day. Tbe place looked real attractive, and those who passed by were informed that the "latch-string hang out" by the Word "Welcome," that was inter woven in a handsome arch that was eon itrocted across the lower doorway: It U not much beyond hundred years since William Brown, the first actual settler In Kiahicoqnillaa, located at a point in the valley near Reedsville, ind built bis cabin at the edge of a piece of 60 to 100 seres of cleared land. When he staked or marked kis claim be did not know that be was pos sessing himself of the favorite haunts of the Cayuga Indian Chief, Loga, who waa so named after a white man who had been in the service of the Colonial governmant. Not rar fiom the cleared land that settled BroWa in KUhkoquiUas is a fine spring of water that Logan oltea frequented, which caused it to be named Logan spring. There is a great deal of legendary story afloat in tbe valley relative to Logan, but or the chief from w horn the valley is named KisbicoquillaS nothing but his name is known or said. Who was he 1 And thus among the Indians, as among the "pale faces," the deeds or tbe powerful may die out, and the deeds of weaker men may live to be talked of from generation to genera tion. It is said that Brown's first meeting with Logan took place about fire miles west of Brown's settlement, at a spring on tba property of Mr. Alexander, a man wlrt is represented to be worth a quarter of a million of dollars. l'-rown and Alexander, the father of the present proprietor hd gone up the va'.ley to locate land. Erly one morning a deer sprang up in front of them. Alexander fired and wound ed it, and concluded to give pursuit. Brown, for sCme reason, did not join in the chase, but lingered a bunt the spot where the deer waa shot at, perhaps expecting it to return. The morning waa clear ; the sun was just shining over the low Hue of bills that border the stream that flows from the spring about whicb the land -seekers had been, and long shadows were Stretched out toward the West. Brown was thirsty, and went to the spring to drink, and there, to his consternation, was the image of an In dian reflected in its waters from the hill on the East. Brown grasped his rifle aud tread, but neither men had hostility in view. After a few friendly ej tculations and signs of peaceful intimation, they sbaok hands, and thus Brown and Logan, the new and the old settlers, met and became friends Other settlers the Campbells, Wilsons, Noriiscs, Millikcns and other families, chief ly of Scotch Irish extraction followed Brown in taking up land in this beautiful and productive valley. Descendants of the early settlers are Still flourishing in Kishi coquillaa, but the predominant number is no longer confined to the Scotch Irish. Tbe thrifty German, becoming lascinated by the natural beauty of the valley, and by the abundant fertility of the soil, Las invested largely there. A large population of Aymish people add to the value of the price, of lands by being ready and con stant purchasers. Their steady morals, and persistent industry make them a full match for the thrifty Scotch Irish element in the acquirement of the most desirable lands. A caiavan of men, womrh ind children was met on tbe road. The women and girls all wore white caps, and had their dresses fashioned as nearly as they knew after the dresses of Axniish women, and at first sight we mistook tbem for Aymish people, but when we came np to the-u the appearaace of the men and the general appearance of their bag and baggage, pronounced the first impression as not correct. They were Gyp sies. But !iy do (y psy women and (iy p sy girl dress like Aymish people V we asked. A passenger answered. He said it Was tt carry favor wilh the Aymish, who are close adherents to dress rules. They sought the good graces of the Aymish so that they might the better succeed in their begging lor victuals. The Gypsy knows thai tile house of a prosperous Aymishman ranks among the best victualed bouses in the world. The Aymish acquire large es tates and thus become heavy ta -payers, and important supporters ot township and State interests. No Avmishman ever be comes a charge on the public, and every man of them must pay such debts as be contracts. nce be fail to do so, or fails to make honorable effort to do so, be is no longer an Aymisliman. They never resort to the law iu the sc-ttlercent of differences, or disputes. AU disputes must be amicably settled. They are non-combatants, iai favor settlement by arbitration. When na tions adopt the Aymish way of settling dis disputes. the soldier's occupation will have gone 'orever, and the happy millennial pe riod, which orthodox people dream so much about in their wakeful hours, will have been ushered in. Charles Sumner was fhe advo cate of a system for the settlement of na tional disputes that partook largely f the system In practice among the Ayrnifh, and the settlement of the Alabima claims Is a practical illustration of their peaceable policy carried into national affairs. They are a highly social people among themselves. Their religious and social meetings have generally been confined to the houses, in ihe inter, and cleanly-swept bams in the summer-time, cf the membership. To these social and religious meetings ail go j all are expected to attend, and the man who has been informed that it costs nothing to belong to the Aymish church had better disabuse his mind and get an intelligent understanding of what be talks about. It is not a common sight to see an Aymish church ; a church owued by that people has been built not far Irom Belleville. Tbe Presbyterians iu this valley are nu merous. In the drive up tbe valley we caught sight of the two churches in which Rev. A. H. Parker, a talented young Pres byterian minister from this place, preaches. The first and larg-st one stands beyond Reedsville along the Bellefonte pike, and may be seen from tbe road, from the first bill-top beyond Reedsville in the direction of Belleville. The second church is situa ted beyond tb Seminary, not far from Mr. Alexander's Tbey are not lights under a bushel, for they each stand on the top of a bill. When abut midway between Reedsville and Belleville a brisk shower of rain fell, whicb almost washed our enthusiasm for fishing among the mountains away, but Mr. Berry waa proof against it all. Nothing short of a small deluge would take away hi proclivity for that which Isaac Walton loved best. By the time that Belleville was reached, !ntormation had been received that heavy showers bad fallen in that section of Country fbat day, aud that assurance caused ua to realise that on the morning of the neit day we conld not do more that look in the direction of the "Premised land." In getting out of the stage at Belleville we fell into the charga of Mr. William Ro per, wi h whom we remained till the next morning. Rev. Mr. Folk, Lutheran minis ter t that place, was ready for the excur sion. Hev. Mr. Campbell was also ready, but that evening was unexpectedly sum moned to appear at Lewistown, without fail, the next day. Belleville has a population of about 450, with all the elements that enter into town Of that n timber of population, with two handsome churches, the congregations of which are regularly preached to by the Rev erend gentlemen mentioned above. Tbe next morning Rev. Mr. Folk, Rev. Mr. Berry and Mr. Roper tarted for tne mountains. We saw them off,, took one long look ia the direction of the promised land, stepped into the stage at 7 o'clock, and by noon bad arrived here at l-'fKin, all tbe better for the recreation. Two day afterwards Rev. Mr. Berry returned with hi basket full of trout. Torso men from Patterson displayed their talent for comedy on the 4th, by ap pearing on tbe street of the town in full Indian costume, on BorSe-back, and on fooC Their programme consisted in a running light through the streets, beginning on Tus carora street, Patterson, where the first bat'Ie between Sitting Bull's Albert Hack enberger'a horsemen and tbe footmen of Spotted Tail Julius Derr took place. The whoops, yells, flourishes snd imitatory fight were a great deal Iodiau like, and were kept np through Patteison till th river bridge was reached. Hostilities ceased there. After crossing over to Mifflin, Spot ted Tail's crowd passed np Bridge Street, while Sitting Bull's party passed up Water street to Cherry, to Third, down Third to Bridge to the jail, where the parties met and there tbe fight between then! was re newed with great animation. The result or it all was, Silting Bull was captured and securely kept for a jollification by the Uorsehead men, in the evening. The Horse bead luen paraded iu Patterson in the even ing, and just about the time Sitting Bull was to be executed he became obstreperous, broke from his csptors, and after receiving two shots escaped. The Tub Race was also an entertainment by Patterson youths. A great many people turned uit to witness it. Crowds stood in the river bridge, and on tbe arches of the same structure, and on tbe hoiks of the Stream. About half-past t o'clock P. M., the contestants, four in number, appeared at a point or rock j itting from tho Patter son shore, opposite ihe deep cut above town, and allowed their crafts to float down with the current. A boat accompanied them, as a matter or safety against accident. The four tubs bad been fastened together in the shape of a square, but tbat was not seen until tho point of the Island was nearly reached, and not until the contestants sprang into the wat. r and took off the fastenings, uncoupled the tubs, and each manned his own by turning it upside down and lying across it, propelling it by the same motion as used in swimming. Two others joined the racers at this point of tbe Island, and away tney all went with a splash and fuss that was real humorous, down to tbe ford ing, which was the goal. Albert llackenber ger waa the victor. Jeff. Oelluff, W. H. Go shen, Albert Poughmsn, Frank Swarts anil Harry B iker were the other contestant. Pexsox l Rev. !tIorhnn Siober, of Thompsontown; was present during the last hout-s of John Layer. Joseph Lnmbard, editor of the Selins grove Tribune, bas been nominated by the Republicans of Snyder county lor the office of Associate Judge. The pastors ol the Protestant churches of Washington have invited Moody to visit that city next winter. The New Yolk Bar Association, the other day, refused membership to a man because he was a Jew. Judge Hilton's rule is there fore supported by the bar. Bulj of course when we need ducats, We always go to the Jews ; and ail this inclination to proscribe' certain classes of men brings np the ques tion ss to whether we s s people have reached our highest point of liberality and toleration of all claSes of men who are well behaved.
