The Parade at Xoretto,
Ths companies composing the Cambria Bri
gade assembled at Loretto, on Tuesday, for pa
rade. The following companies were present :
"Junior, American Highlanders," Capt. Hum
phreys, Lieuts. Gardner, Galy and Storm, mus
tered 20 muskets; "Cambria Guards," Capt
McDermit and Lieut. Blair, with about 20 men ;
"Quitman Guards." Capt. Alexander, Lieuts.
Barbour, Dunlap, and 20 men; "Allegheny
Infantry" Capt. Schnetberg, Lieuts. Little, Kay-
lor, Will, and 32 men ; "Montgomery
Guards," Capt. Stewart, Lieuts. Brophy, Stewart
Varuer, and 24 men; "Washington Guards,"
Capt. White, Lieuts. Fox, Sharp, Myers, and
45 men The "American Highlanders" was
the only company in the county not present ; be
ing detained at the Summit, on Tuesday, to at
tend a dinner given by their newly elected Cap
tain W. W. Ivory, but was expected at Loretto,
on Wednesday. The entire Brigade was under
Col. C. II. Heyer, who marched the companies
to the field in the afternoon, where, for several
hours, he employed them in Itegimental drill.-
We noticed Maj. McLaughlin on the ground in
the evening. Brigade Inspector Linton was in
attendance but not in uniform. Each company
bad with it a fine MartiaJ Band ; the "Washing
ton Guards" had the services of the Hollidays
burg Brass Band ; their music was excellent
and was highly praised. The weather was very
disagreeable, rain falling all the time and the
air quite cold. A dance was announced for the
evening but on account of the bad weather was
but slimly attended by ladies. The parade was
an excellent one, barring the awful weather.
A Perilous Situation.
A short time since, as a carriage containing
a party of Yorkers was crossing the suspension
bridge across the Niagara, and when about half
way over, the bridge was struck by a gust with
appalling fury. The wind blew a perfect torna
do, while the air was filled with driving hail and
rain, and so potent was the wind that the bridge
swayed literally to and fro, ten or a dozen feet,
making one giddy with its vibrations. So ap
palling was the commotion that the horses fell
upon their sides on the bridge, while the driver
in the extremity of his terror, seemed incapa
ble of making the least effort to move from the
perilous spot. The inmates of the carriage
could with difficulty keep their seats, and for a
short time expected nothing else but to be pre
cipitated into the surging waters below. They
got off, however, without injury.
Dreadfnl Accident.
A dreadful accident occurred on last Wednes
day forenoon at t?je Planing Mill of Carver,
Wood & Co., in Bridgeport. While Mr. Henry
Bulger was ripping lumber with a circular saw,
he undertook to oil a tightening pully under the
eaw bench, when it caught his shirt sleeve and
drew his hand and arm against the saw, cut
ting the arm almost completely off between the
wrist end elbow. The limb was successfully
amputated. Mr. Bulger is one of our most es
timable ciliz riS. Brvvvtrlllf Ctwf .. Prrxlyteri-an.
The October Election.
Four weeks from next Tuesday the citizens of
the State will cast their suffrages for State and
county officers. The democracy of the Union
look to Pennsylvania to do her duty by overthrow
ing the legions of Whiggerry. You have the
power, and you should exercise . it. Let every
man consider well the responsibility that rests
upon him at the October election and the effect
of his vote upon the interests of the country.
As goes the State in October, so in November.
Then, as you have a President and Vice Presi
dent, to elect, let each and every democrat lay
aside all personal animosity, all slight objections
to the ticket of October, and willingly go to the
polls to aid by his vote in the overthrow of the
Whig party. Let one great heart beat through
the entire party for the success of candidates
and the success of democratic principles. Let
the watchword be as heretofore "Principles, not
Men." Can you go to the polls and cast your
vote for the candidates of that party which sym
pathised with the Lion of England in the war
of 1812, and gave "aid and comfort" to the
Mexicans in the war of 1846 ? Can you assist
by your vote the party which desired to inflict
upon the country the detested Alien and Sedi
tion Laws ? Can you aid the party that would
make the rich richer and the poor poorer though
the operations of an exhorbitant protective tar
iff the same party which favored the Bankrupt
law and United States Bank Bill? Can you as
sistby your vote in keeping in power the present
extravagant whig administration at Washington
which is squandering twenty five millions of
dollars annually ? If so vote for the candidates
of the whiff Dart v. But you must remember
that in doing so you aid in crushing the energies
of a mighty, though youthful nation, and hasten
the day of its tribulation. The democratic par
ty presents for your support able and worthy
candidates. Men who have a perfect know!
edge of the duties of the station for which they
have been nominated, and, who in connection
with their solid attainments, combine a charac
ter for morality and integrity worthy of emula
tion. You cannot be too strongly impressed
with the importance of every Democratic voter
giving his suffrage to the Democratic state and
county ticket in October next. A victory for
our honored party over the whig forces will be
a glorious event, and will be hailed with delight
by the American people, as a victory not alone
of Tarty, but a victory for the perpetuation of
the American Union. The democracy gained a
bright name for the success of last fall and its
brilliancy can be increased by a repetition.
Determine then to go to the Polls on the sec
ond Tuesday of October, and, in defiance of the
military appeals of the whig leaders, give your
support to that party and its candidates which
alone is capable of controlling the destiny of the
Republic, and which alone has, upon all occa
sions, rendered itself worthy of the admiration
and adherance of the American People, by
course in strict consonance with the principles
of civil and religious liberty. Determine to ad
here to the nominees of the Democratic party
casting aside all rancorous feeling or animosity
against the individual, and rallying in defence
of the Principle involved as an indispensable el
c.-aent in the future prosperity and happiness
of the country.
An Armful.
Miss Rosina Delight Richardson, according to
a writer in the Boston Journal, is a delectable
armful, belonging to the State of New Hamp
shire, where she resides with her father, a sub
stantial farmer. She is thus described :
"Miss Rosina is nineteen years of age. is 5
feet 3J inches in height, measures 5 feet 4 J in
ches around the waist, 6 feet 2 inches around
the arm below the elbow, and 2 feet 10 inches
in a straignt line across tne snoulders. At birth
she weighed 6 pounds ; at 5 years, 148 pounds ;
at 10 years, 268 pounds ; at 15 years, 365
pounds ; and now, at 19 years of age, she
weighs 478 pounds. On estimating the quanti
ty of cloth in her clothing when dressed for a
ride on a winter's day, we found it to contain
98 yards of J yards wide cloth. She has brown
hair, dark blue eyes, is of a fair complexion,
and has what phrenologists would call a well
balanced head, the perceptive organs predom
inating. ne can Knit, weave, make a snirt or
a batch of bread, is a good singer, and phiys
the piano with taste and skill ; is "considered
one of the best scholars in the town where she
resides ; is courteous and affable, and lively in
conversation, and evinces a general knowledge
which might raise a blush on the cheek of some
of pur city belles."
Miss Rosina is assuredly "somebody."

Another Frightful Steamboat Disaster on
the North River,
New York, September 4.
Our city was again thrown into excitement
this afternoon, by the receipt of intelligence
that the fine steamboat Reindeer, on the line
between here and Albany, had burst her boiler,
killing and scalding a number of her passen
gers. At nrst the report represented that the
disaster occurred at Bristol landing, but by sub
sequent information, we learn that it tookpcei
abnut 1 o Clock, as the boat was leaving fcn lib
erties. The Reindeer was a first class boat,
and one of the fastest" on the river. She was
on her up trip, having left here for Albany this
morning."
Sacgertie, Saturday evening, 6 o'clock.
The accident occurred about half-past, one o'
clock. The Reindeer after landing her passen
gers, was going out from the dock, when the
steam connecting pipe burst with a loud report.
The steam rushed out between uecks, and pas
sing directly into the lower cabin, where ft num
ber of passengers were dining, all were cither
killed or badly scalded.
Among the dead are Frederick Morrell, Clerk
of the boat; Francis Dunn, deckhand; Edward

Important Decision.
In the case of Hammer vs. Freese, on Thurs
day, in the Supreme Court, a decision was read
by Judge Black, which will set aside the prac
tice under the "Three Hundred Dollar Law."
Heretofore, it has been supposed sufficient to
notify the Sheriff prior to a sale of personal pro
perty, that the benefit of the -law mentioned
would be claimed.' Thus, if the property brought,
sny $400, after the sale the defendant received
$300 of the money, and his creditors. But ac
cording to the present decision, the law is not
for the benefit of the debtor, but of his family.
When a levy is made, he is bound to give notice
that he intends to claim the benefit of. the law ;
and appraisers must be appointed, and he must
select, previous to the sale, the articles which he
chooses to retain. Otherwise, he receives so
benefit ; for if he suffers the Sheriff to proceed
to a sale, he loses the exemption, and the whole
proceeds enure to the benefit of his creditors,
in the ordr of their liens. Pitts. Union.-
Temperance Meeting.
Pursuant to notice a meeting was held in the
Congregationalist Church, in the borough of
Ebensburg, on Friday evening, September 10th,
for the purpose of considering the utility of a
dopting measures as to insure two members to
the Legislature from this district favorable to
the enactment of a law prohibiting the sale of
ardent spirits within the borders of our State
Xne meeting was organized by appointing
JOHN WILLIAMS, Esq., President, Stephen
Llotd, Esq. and M. S. IIabr, Vice Presidents,
John Lloyd, Esq., Secretary.
The object of the meeting having been stated
by the President. On motion a committee was
appointed by the President to draft resolutions
expressive of the sense of the meeting, as fol
lows : James S. Clark, M. S. Harr, Isaac Evans
and Evan Morgan. During the absence of the
committee the meeting was briefly but ably ad
dressed by J2. J. Mills, liie committee repor
ted the following preamble and resolutions :
Whereas, Intemperance i3 acknowledged by
all to be an impending evil, destroying the minds
of our most eminent citizens, corrupting the mo
rals of our youth, making peace and happiness
strangers to our firesides, and in their places
sowing the seeds of poverty, wretchedness, and
crime ; and Wliereas, we believe those laws
granting the sale of ardent spirits within the
borders of our State, the most damning enact
ments that ever emanated from the Halls of a
free and wise Legislature ; Therefore
Resolved, That in viewing the past and present
evils it is our duty to future posterity, to devise
some means of banishing the monster intemper
ance from our land.
Resolved, That in our opinion, the only way
this can be accomplished is to have a prohibito
ry law similar to the "Maine Law" enacted in
our State.
Resolved, That for the purpose of accomplish
ing this end, a committee of three by appointed
to interrogate tha candidates for assembly on
this subject, and in case they refuse to pledge
themselves for a prohibitory law, the said com
mittee are hereby empowered to confer with
similar conferees from Bedford and Fulton coun
ties, and put in nomination candidates who will
be willing and able to defend a prohibitory law.
After some discussion, in which E. Hutchin
son, Charles Albright, Esqrs., E. J. Mills, A. J.
Rhev and M. Hasson. Esq.. participated, the
resolutions were adopted as reported.
The meeting appointed the following commit
tee to act under the instructions of the last res
olution Wm. It. Hughes, Andrew Lewis and
John Lloyd, Esq.
On motion the papers of the county are re
quested to publish the proceedings.
On motion the meeting adjourned.

The German Celebration in Baltimore Riotous
Proceedings.
Baltijiorr, Sept. 13.
The Grand Turner4Yerien Association of this
eity, have made the most extensive arrangements
for the grand celebration fixed for to day. At an
early hour this morning, they mustered for the
purpose or proceeding to the spot agreed upon
to pass the festivities of the day. Among them
I particularly noticed from your city, the Phila.
delphia Society, and the Social Democratic As
sociation. Interspersed throughout the proces-
l&ion was a number of flags, evergreens, wreaths
mottoes and steamers. They marched thaough
several of the principal streets, and then went
to the ground of the agricultural society.
They had in the line several excellent bands
of music. As soon as they reached the grounds
an eloquent address was delivered and severa1
German songs sung. The Germans then went
Kmiisrh their usual cvmnastic exercises. At
this time a party of rowdies, who had followed
them to the grounds, created a disturbance. A
fight followed, which at one time threatened to
be of a serious character, knives, pistols, clubs
and stones were freely used ; 6ix or seven per
sons were seriously injured, one of whom it is
feared fatally.
The Germans engaged in the festivities had
conducted themselves with the utmost decorum,
and the attack was mainly commenced by some
Germans who was opposed to them. The fight
lasted nearly the entire day, and towards even
ing the whole affair was nearly broken up by
the riotous proceedings of the outsiders. At
length order was restored, and the Turners
marched to their quarters. They behaved very
orderly, and it was a source of regret that their
enjoyment had been thus rudely interfered with.
What Barnum and Jenny Lind made.
The following note to the New York Musical
World, said to be from a reliable source, gives
the sum total, in round numbers, that the two
personages whose names head this article clear
ed over all expenses during their connection.
It seems that they averaged a trifle over $3,000
a piece on eacji concert :
Not long since, Mr. Barnum exhibited to me
the account current between himself and Jenny
Lind, and a truly marvelous document it is.
He ought to publish it entire for the astonish
ment and edification of the world generally and
singers particularly. According to the footing

More Fishery Difficulties.
Bostos, Sept. 10.
A correspondent of the Boston Atlas writes
that the commander of the English cutter Net
ley continues to annoy American fishermen.
On the 20th ult. she boarded the schooners Pow
tona and Leader, between Campo Bella and
Grand Mener, where there were no fishing
grounds ; after searching the vessels he endor
sed on the licence "found under suspicious cir
cumstances." The commander of the Netley
told the captains that he observed the Yankee
paper3 had, stated that there would be no more
trouble to the fishing vessels, and he would like
to know where they got their information. He
told them that they would find him doing in the
future just as he had always done.
Forrest's Mansion.
We extract from a letter to the Cincinnati
Times, the following squib in relation to For
rest's Castle:
See there is Forrest's mansion, we heard
echoed from every portion of the boat, and look
ing, we saw it towering ifl lonely 'solemn gran
deur among the lofty forest trees. The build
ing has the appearance of A number of spires
placed in juxtaposition. It is composed of a
dark, sombre-colored marble, and its highgoth
ic windows gives it the appearance of some Ital
ian castle, half dererted and discolored by time
It looks as though the sounds of mirth or music
never rang within its stately walls. The
grounds are not laid off and decorated so taste
fully as I imagined. I 6aw nothing that looked
like a flourishing shrub or plant not a flower
of any kind in bloom on the place that I could
see. But very few shade or ornamental trees.
The evergreens were a tall, stiff, slender kind of
cedar, which looked to me like so many grim
sentinels watching, and expecting every mo
ment to see a troubled spirit issue from those
silent looking portals. But, if the mansion
looks cold and cheerless, it at least contained
one noble and generous heart at the burning of
the Henry Clay. The great tragedian was at
home at the time of that fearful catastrophe,
and, utterly regardless of 6elf, he sprang into
the water and rescued one after another from a
watery grave and deposited them in safety, till
nature was exhausted and he could go no more.
I understand that he is about to be presented
with a handsome silver pitcher for his invalua
ble services on that occasion surely such he
roic deeds deserve a generous tribute.
The Earthquake In Cuba Movement
of
Troopt,
Baltimore, Sept. 11
jjota tae oacK isew uneans mans came iui
. . -V 1 . . V A.
hand this morning. The Picayune contains some
further particulars in relation to the earthquake
in Cuba. It appears that there were five dis
tinct shocks. Many of the churches were so
injured that they had to be closed. Altars were
erected in the streets, before which the excited
crowds continually prostrated themselves.
Several shocks of an earthquake were also
felt in the village of Saltradero, but the dam
age is unknown. It is supposed Baracoa also
suffered severely.
The shock occurred about 3l o'cock in the
morning, and the intense darkness added to the
horror of the scene. Crowds of men, women
and children, ran frantic through the streets.
It is estimated that at least twenty lives were
lost, and property to the amount of nearly $2,
000,000 sacrificed.
The excitement existing in that city had been
increased by a report that large bodies of arm
ed men were already collecting and organizing
in Florida, and below New Orleans, for the inva
sion of the Island.
The persons who had been arrested for being
concerned in the publication of the " Voice of
the People" were not garrotted on the 20th, as
reported that they were to be. Their sentence
had not yet pronounced.
An additional force of 2000 men was shortly
expected from Spain, when the most rigid police
would be established throughout the whole Isl
and. Xew Suspension Bridge at Niagara.
It is designed to construct a new suspension
bridge over the present one at Niagara Falls, to
be a railroad bridge capable of carrying heavy
trains.
The bridge will form a single span of 800 feet
in length. It is to serve as a connecting link
between the railroads of Canada and New York
and to accommodate the common travel of the
two countries. The upper floor, which supports
the railroad, will be 24 feet. The anchorage
will be formed by sinking eight shafts in the
rock, 25 feet deep, at the bottom of which will
be massive cast-iron plates, firmly held down
by solid mason work. Saddles of cast-iron will
suport the cables on the towers, capable of sup
porting the pressure of G000 tons. The towers
are to be 60 feet high, 16 feet wide at the base
and 8 at the top. Weight of timber in the
bridge, 910,130 lbs.; wrought-iron and suspen
ders, 115,120 lbs.; castings, 44,333 lbs.; rails,
66,770 lbs.; cables between the towers, 335,400
When the whole is covered with a locomotive
and train of cars, it is estimated that it will
have to sustain a weight of 1,273 tons, which
amount of burden, though not likely often to
occur, is less than is provided for. It will be
the longest railroad bridge between the points
of support in the world.
American Heroism.
An instance of that unflinching fortitude, which
characterized so many of . our troops during the
late war with Mexico, and whih contributed so
largely to the prestige of our arms, was related !
to the editor of the Journal of Commerce, by
Col. B , of the Artillery. His regiment
was ascending the principal hill at Cerro Gordo,
under a tremendous fire from the Mexican
batteries, when a private soldier of the rifle re
giment near him, was struck by a nine pound
ball, which carried away hij right arm. As the
Colonel passed, he heard him call with unfalter
ing voice to his comrades, extending the shat
tered stump upwards, while ibe blood gushed
copiously from the torn arteries, "Hurrah boys I
we'll have the hilL"
Arrival of Madame Sontaff.
Madame Sontag, (Countess Rossi.) the illus

who shook hands with him were hooted at. At
night, an immense crowd collected in front of
his hotel, in the Place Royal ; groans, yells,
hootings, and cries of "Tiger," "Hyena," and
