DEMOCRAT AND SENTINEL;
LOCAL ITEMS.
RoBBfiR at Johwstowx. Miles Ben ton, Con
stable of Johnstown borough, brought to our
County Jail ou Monday last, three lads charged
with robbery. A correspondent of the Daily
Union, says :
" " Three boys, probably 16 or 17 years of age,
came to Johnstown on New Year's day, and put
up at Magill's Hotel, registering their names as
Wm. Lendon, S. W. Townsend, and Louis Town
send, all of Columbia, Lancaster county, Pa.
They left there soon and went to Mr. Zent's tav
ern, and pledged a geld watch for their boarding.
On Sunday, the inst.. when Rev. J. Martin, Lu
theran Preacher, and family, were at Divine Ser
vice, these boys entered his house, and breaking
everything open, took away one thousand dollars
"in gold and silver, one set of silver spoons, and
" gold pencil, chain, &c, When Mr Martin re
nrned and found everything torn up, he made
inquiry, and founcLout that these boys had been a
feout the house. They were seen to leave it and
ascend the hill south of Johnstown, where it was
supposed they had concealed ihe money. They
were arrested and examined, but no racts were
elicited. On Monday, the 9th, the spoons, three
gold watches, several pencils, &c, were found on
the top of the hill, concealed in a hollow tree while
the money was found in the broken-off top of the
same tree, about fifteen feet up- They gained
this height by climbing a sapling close by. The
stolen property was all recovered, and three gold
watches beside. The boys were taken to Ebens
burgh jail. Mr Martin's dwelling is not more
than ten rods from the church- in which he was
preaching at the time. The money was not his
own, but the property ol a sisterin-law.
VTe would add that the youths are now here ;
they seem to be composed.
Melaxciiolt Accident. An accident of an
exceedingly distressing character occurred in
Clearfield township, on Thursday, last. Major
"Wharton, who had just returned home with his
sled, was in the act of detaching his horses, when
he rccvived -a kick from one of them, while, stoop
ing' which threw him with tiro buck part of his
.head against a stump, causing ieath in a very
short time afterwards, lie became perfectly con
scious, a short time before he breathed his last,
and bade farwell to his friends.
Major Wharton was one of our Tvortliiest citi
zens', and by Ins industry, had acquired a com.
fortab'e home, while his kindness of heart had se
cured him a host of friends. He leaves a devoted
wife, and five infant children to mourn his un
iraely end. . His remains were interred in the
CaUiolic graveyard, at the Loop Church, on Sat
urday, last, whither they were followed dy an
immense concourse f rolaticuS and friends. Al
itgheiiidii. New. Exglaxd CcLTivATOtt. This popular
weekly quarlo, of the largest size, is devoted to
valuable practicable information on Breeding,
Rearing, Managing and Fattening of Cattle,
Swine, Sheep and Poultry care and management
of Horses and B ccs ; Horticultural, Agricultural
and Mechanical matters generally comprising
all that may be of interest to our Farmers and
Mechaics. It will contain all the important news
of the week, markets, literary contrbutions and
choice miscellany making it a complete Agri
cultural Family paper; published at 2 a year;
tfbur espies 6; twelve copies, 14? strictly in ad
vance, and copy free to ny one getting up a
cJub. Address E. B. Fitts, publisher, Boston,
Mus.
Tn the present dearth of news, it is rather
heavy work to get up an interesting weekly ; oc
casionally however, something turns up to break
the monotony : for instance, in that delightful
publication, the Alleghanian," of this week, we
read tie following startling announcement :
. " In town. Abraham Kopclin, Esq-, on Satur
day, last."
- Shade of M elchisndec ! There is an item of in
telligence, calculated to -arouse the most indeffer
ent, and disturb even
' Midnight's fathomless profound."
We give in; we cannot match that; but will
endeavor to wait patiently until the next convoy
of Lager Beer arrives from Carrolltown.
t The new Church in Lorctto was solemnly con
secrated on Friday the 6th inst.
t ii ill Tlx Tl T:nt-An
tiign mass was ceieoraiea dv ru.. lvev. uisuup
Newmann, of Philadelphia ; a powerful sermon
was prcached by Rev. T. McCullough, and a dis
course delivered in German by Rev. Wimmer, of
Carrolltown. after which the benediction wtis pro-
nounced by Rev. Mr. Corbet.
N The building, although not quite completed, is
Tery imposing. .
"Sxaix ! Sxaix !" Mr. Jacob Campbell, who
Tcsides in Blacklick township, informs ns that on
Wednesday of this week, he found three large
snakes in a snow drift ; all of which be lost no
time in sending to another and better world : these
last Roses of Summer must have had a pictur
esque time, durin-r tire late cold " spell." We
anerer before heard of snakes being caught out so
late ; wonder what their anxious Mas think ?
We had the pleasure this week of meeting
with Messrs. Todd, Dougherty, J. P. and B. P.
Thompson ; they all complain of good health,
and think that they will realize their golden
dreams, and win a " pile" in the Quaker city :
we are glad to hear of the prosperity of our Ebens
burg boys, and are proud of the good name which
Jhcy have earned for themselves.

legislative speeches, the usual dryness of which
would render any little dampness impossible.
There is plenty of material to make the remedy

" The New Inn." ": -
" Rare Ben Jonson" once delighted apprecia
ting audiences with the wit, the iearhing, the
genuine poetry of a play bearing the above capti
vating title; in xur degenerate days the legiti
mate Drama has fallen sadly into disrepute; yet
although 'The New Inn" never more graces the
boards of national and capital Theatres, the scho
lar, the man of taste, always peruses the play
with feelings of refined pleasure . ... -.... .
But it is of another creation of mingled Ro
mance and reality we must now speak : to wit,
the new Inn of Robert Smith. .
The Smith family is one which during ages has
been prominently before the public ; from time
immemorial there have, been Smiths who tow
ered above the common herd, -
" In shape and gesture proudly eminent." 4
We have not space enough to widen upon them
all we cannot "expatiate upon the bright deeds,
the shining virtues, the commanding talents
which may have distinguished individual Smiths,
from the time of John the adventurer,' who made
love to. Pocahontas, down to Joseph the Mormon,
who was disposed to make love to every body ;
we are even compelled to take Alexander at his
word, and let him,- .
"Love and flush and thrill;
Or let him die." ' - -
Our business is with Robert, who' having bade
adieu to the aesthetics and the angels, is disposed
to find " that tranquility which passeth all un
dcrstftMJJng," cts or itie merest philanthropy',
in the common, every day charities of a cup of
cold water to the thirsty, and a crust of bread to
the hungry. .
Abandoning " star eyed science," turning
away from the court of the Muses, he will preside
in his new temple of the Actual ; and as Prophet
and Priest of the new Philosophy, will teach man
kind to turn the cold shoulder upon the Mystical,
the Abstract.and enrapture them with all that is
Transcendental in common provender, and all
that is Idyllic in three cent whiskey. v
So now for Robert's first " utterance." -
laurel swamp ixxV
IN the Laurel Swamp is now ready to take in
any person that may wish to be " taken in."
The Human race have been wondering why this
Tavern was not finished long ago. This is not
at all surprising, as it has been nine weeks, six
teen days, and six hours longer building than the
Tower of Babel and caused more swearing, and
confusion of tongues, undoubtedly than that same
venerable edifice, t Let good men all pray that
the same calamity the curse of God, may not
follow this feeble effort of one poor man to get up
a shanty for the protection of his fellow creatures,
which was inflicted upon the proud and ambi
tious ones of old who wished to get to Heaven
on Stone and Mortar, instead of by Good Works
and by Grace. This House and surrounding
Swamp have been a taking in concern from the
first on account of the nature of the soil. Title
quick sands, glorious legal uncertinties,and eter
nal delays. In the first place the title of the land
lias been in a state' of BornaT'wn,f (Cambria
County named for birth)' for te years. This
has been caused by a "baleful enchantment"
and the influence of Mt phistophiles.
Although seventeen scientific legal Midwives
of the most undoubted genius and reputation as
land Lawers have been at work all that time, no
title can be found.
Five Supreme Beldams are now at work with
legal forceps' and scissors to finish this " Jl or na
tion" team the forlorn mullier., of . legal, abstrac
tions, and whom it is hoped by book or by crook
by right or by wrong, will liave it accomplished.
The walls of the house itself have taken in more
Whiskey and money to build them, than any
ton Barns in Cambria county. The timbers of
ships to last forever and then make good oven
wood are boiled in Oil. From hili price and
scarcity of grease, the proprietor of the Laurel
Swamp Inn thought it best to boil his timbers in
Whiskey. There were also other considerations
of a Scientific or Chemical character. For al
though the Whiskey element will rot the human
gut, it preserves Timber, Peaches, and dead ani
mal matter from decay. His Bar is only tolera
ble, Whiskey predominating ; but his greatest
trouble is that he can only sell by the Barrel or
Butt, having no lisencc, as a compensation to the
human soul for the want of " the Music of the
Spheres" in the shape of three cent drinks. The
Proprietor will supply fiddling gratis, and every
man can have the piiviledge of drinking thirty
two gallons or a common barrel. The nineteen
gallon law of Massachusetts beingconsideredatoo
puritanic and contracted arrangement for the
Stomach of man in these mountain parts.
His Table is the ordinary mountain grub, com
mon shanty cooking, hard enough, but suitable
to a region near the Xine of enternal snow, where
the human nose is required to be pickled in
Whiskey or drop oft with intense frost.
The Inn is situated in the Swamp one half mile
west oTCnkation, at the crossing of the three Al
leghany Mountain roads, near a large sand rock
Spring, which has its " Bornation" from the roots
of a venerable Pine Forest.
-The building itself is of the Egyptain order of
Architect e, that is, after the first formula of a
human habitation or Temple for the household
Gods, wigwam or tent like; in short the aborigi
nal shanty of the biped man, low and cavernous:
simplicity and want having cut the graces en
tirely. . "
Hoping to have some custom, the Proprietor" is
happy to inform the public, that this resting
place for the weary laden is now arranged.
1 ROBERT SMITH.
The Proprietor would inform the public that
Dr. Jackson, of the fiiw of Jackson & Howe, has
rooms in his house his office being in the origi
nal Squatters Log Cabin, opposite. The Dr. is
well known to be sound on. fits, and common
snakes in the hat. His services can be obtained
at any time.
