Como KILLEn.—On Saturday last, a child
was killed in Saxton—being run over by the
cars. We have not heard the particulars, but
understand that the head was severed from the
body.
IParßreathes there a man with soul so dead,
who never to himself has said, "I will my coun
ty paper take, both for my own and children's
sake I" If such there be, let hint repent, and
have the Journal to him sent; and if he'd pass
a happy winter, he in advance should pay the
printer.—ollice on Hill street, Huntingdon.
FRUIT hdlg.—Bodine & Brothers, Williams.

ted "Ne Plus Ultra Jar," which has been pro.
wen to be the best now in use. We cordially
recommend this article to the public, and hope
housekeepers will give it a trial, feeling sure
that it will suit them exactly. Smith has been
appointed agent for their sale, in this place.
giar At the commencement exercises of Yale
College, addresses were delivered before the
Alumni by Governor Chase, of Ohio; Senator
Trumbull, of Illinois ; Prof. Sill' man and others.
A large number of distinguished visitors at•
tended the exercises. In the list of those who
graduated with the highest honors, and on whom
the degree of A. B. was conferred, we notice
the name of our young friend and townsman,
Mr. Rudolph McMurtrie.
ser We neglected noticing the admiraLle
sermon delivered by Rev. Sarnia., in the Pres•
byterian church, on last Sabbath a week. His
subject was the ministry of Angels, and was
ably handled. It was, in fact, a gem.
How cheering the the% that the spirits of bliss
Will bend their bright wings to a world such as
this;
IV ill leave the sweet joys of the mansions above
To breathe o'er our bosom some messnge of love!
They come, or, wings of the mornit.g they come,
impatient to lead some poor wanderer home ;
Some pilgrim to snatch from his stormy abode,
And lay him to rest in the arms of his God.
ALL Anone Hosts.—Court commenced WI
Monday last, with a very limited amount of
criminal business to dispose of. The often•
dance is good.—The delegate meeting last
Saturday, reminded us of the palmy days of
the good old Whig party. Great interest was
manifested, and a very large vote was polled.

eeedings in out next is/inc.—Professor Owen 1
was seriously injured on Saturday last, by be•
log thrown from his . horse.—New corn is
flooding our market, and everybody is enjoying
the luxury of ''your nice hot corn." —Excel•
lent—that rebuff given to a couple of the `cod•
fish aristocrats' from the city, by one of our
town girls. Independent calico commands our
respect and admiration.—lt isn't all persons
who wear broadcloth and silk, that are ladies
and gentlemen. For the two "city" ladies we
met the other morning promenading our streets
and who were talking so loudly of " the awk.
wariness of country guts I" nn doubt live on
the sixth landing of some dilapidated rat har
bor, in none of the most respectable precincts
of New York.
!NTH/MAI/XL — This cursed, soul and body
killing monster, is rapidly adding conquest to
conquest, and extending the sceptre of hie
power over our land. We have daily instances
tr. the downfall of some, who, had they been
other than the yielding, frail mortals they were,
%night have been ornaments to society, sad the
pride of their friends. But last week, in our
neighboring county, a man comparatively young
with talents of no ordinary kind, and who was
respected by all who knew him, fell a victim to
the demon's influence. Young man, let that
awful death scene be a warning to you ; fur
"Death speaks, eh I reader• doss thou hour?
Haat thou no lurking cause for fear ?
Has not o'er THEE the sparkling bowl,
Constant, commanding, sly control ?
Beelines reflect, betimes beware,
Though ruddy, healthful now, and fair;
Before slow reason lose the sway,
Reform ; postpone another day,
Tim too may fill a drunkard's grave."
Who will deny that drunkenness is au evil—
s master vice—the prolific mother o? a thou
sand woes—the perennial spring of boundless
misery prevailing in the land ? And it can he
arrested only by the firm, persevering efforts of
the wise and good. It prevails to au unbound
ed extent, infecting all classes of the comma•
nity, from the humble cottage to the lofty dome
bringing in its trans moral depravity, di.ease
and death. By the influence of this contam
inating vice, the noble mind of man, that pla
ce:, Lim first its the sphere of created beings
and assimilates him to the image of his divine
maker, is dethroned. His immortal soul lade.
graded and prostrated in the dust, andhe sinks
below the beasts that perish. How true that
_ . .
"Vice is a monster of such frightful mien,
That to be hated, needs but to be seen ;
But seen too ott, familiar with her face,
We first endure—ther. pity—then embrace."
So, the habit of intoxication, like moat other
vices, is of slow and silent growth. A "bitter"
in the morning ; a glass of "lager" at eleven;
a little brandy to settle the dinner, r ncl a cup
with a friend is the evening, often repeated,
renders the practice inveterate. Liquor be
tomes a tyrant. The noblest mind sinks into
he degraded, resistless slave of appetite and
sdalgetice, and then—happy is the victim if
'ce does not tread fast ou the heels of folly,
.c 1 crimes foul and unseemly, blast the repute•
in of the man, who, but for intemperance,
tbht have proved an ornament to society, and
ttern to husbands, fathers and friends.
temperance peoples the abodes of indi•
g." and wretcheducas ; it is the source of
donlic infelicity. Ask the pale wife why she
vicePn secret ? Ask at the iron gratings of
your hone, teethe causes why so ninny human
being% sequestered from friends and liberty.
Go house and Hospital of your cit
ies, andtquire into the origin of so much
sieleneuenverty and wo, and you may trace
lin""tef ANN evils to intemperance.—
How common too are the instances in our
courts of justice, that the only apology for theft
and murder is the sense dreadful plea. Should
not the very seeds of a vice that produces such
effects, he rooted out from the earth ? It is
worse than all the plagues of Egypt. The cup
is more poisonous than that of Circe. It is
bitterer than the waters of Marah. It betrayed
Lot, and Alexander in his wine slew the friend
of his bosom I If disease may boast of hay.
log slain its thousands, Liquor may exult with
all the malignant joy of a demon, in slaying
its ten thousands. Young man, if the mon•
ster bath entwined you in his folds, break from
bins or you are lost forever. Shake off the vi•
per or your destruction is inevitable.
"To err is human, the common lot
Of frail mortals ; • and he alone
Is wise and happy, who, when ills-are done,
Persists not. but would heal the wound he made.
But eelfsufficient obstinacy ever
Is follys utmost height."
So said and so sang the old Grecian poetSo•
phocles, who had no means else of moral in.
etruction but from the light of nature. These
words convey a world of meaning to the young;
that is, let not the season of youth be barren of
im prove means; so essential to your felicity and
honor. Your character is now of your own
forming; your fate is as yet, in some measure,
put into your own hands. Tout nature is as
yet pliant and soft, Habits hove not established
their dominion. Prejudices have not pre.oe
copied your understanding. The world has
not had time to contract and debase your affse•
tions. All your powers are more vigorous,
disembarassed and tree, than they will be at any
future period. Whatever impulse you now
give to your passions and desires, the direction
is likely to continue. It will form a channel in
which your life is to run ; now it may determine
an everlasting ins.. Consider then the em•
ployment of this important period as the high.
est trust which shall ever be committed to
you ; as, in a great measure, decisive of your
happiness in time .d as eternity. As in the
succession of the seasons, each by the invaria
ble laws of nature, affects the production of
what is next in course ; so in human life, every
period of our age, according as it is well or ill
spent, influences the happiness of that which
is to follow. Virtuous youth gradually brings
forward accomplished and flourishing manhood;
and such manhood passes of itself, without un•
easiness, into respectability and tranquil old
age. But when nature is turned out of its reg•
illas cosine, disorders take place in the moral,
just as in the vegetable world. If the spring
puts forth 110 blossoms, in guanines there will Le
no beauty, and its autumn nofruit. So if youth
be trilled away, without improvement, man
hood will be contemptible, and old age misera
ble.

TILE STOIOI.
Written while on a visit to Long Branch, N. J,
The air was still, the faintest moan not heard,
Lite was at rest, and not a leaflet stirred ;
Thick clouds impending—general gloom o'er.
spread,
While higher still, contending masses sped
fu inky pall—obscured old. Out an s breast,
And thick'ning yap. stole from East to West.
Portents of a storm were gath'ring all around,
Ceas'd the gay laugh, and huslid the sturdiest
sound.
A. moment's pause—all Nature fears the strife,
Blanch is the cheek—and stoP'd the pulse of life,
The wind now eddies and the storm comes near,
Fast flies the scud, and big round drops appear;
The rain descends, and bursting from on high,
It seems Heaven open the sluices of the sky.
Fiercely the torrent deluges the earth,
As in old days—befbre its second birth ;
And the tall verdant tenants of the wood,
Bow %lentil the fury of the raging flood.
Old Ocean heaves. and roars in sullen math,
As the waked whirlwind moves across her path;
And now Heaven's lightning cleaves the sable
cloud,
And metering thunder grows more harsh aid
loud ;
'Till the huge welkin echoes with the crash,
As peal succeeds to peal, and flash to flush ;
As If the grand artillery of the spheres
Were all let loose to harrow molts] ears—
Or teach how feeble is man's boasted might,
When tempest rages, or when lightnings blight.
In fitful gusts the wind doth storm and rave,
h,ad dashes high the foaming mountain wave,
Whose voice co.mingling with the furious blast,
And hoarser thunder, make all earth aghast.
Herds to their coverts fly, with fearful bound,
And-screaming-birds in terror seek the ground;
The pliant willows bend beneath the blow,
While giant oaks are prostrate laid and low.
Alarmed gay folly sinks its crested head
And pride's vain pomp and haughty spirit's fled.
The bloom of beauty shrinks in pale dismay,
E'en manhood trembles at the tierce display;
Nor thinks it craven to be moved by dread,
When Heaven—in thunder—speaks above our
head.
Yet storm and tempest rage but for a time,
Howe'er impetuous, and howe'er sublime;
As clouds obscure the cheerful face of day,
Or sorrows come—but transient—pass away.
More diet ai t now the muttering thunder growls,
The wind less wildly blows, lees fiercely howls;
Nor beats the rain with such terrific might,
Or heaves old ocean to such fearful height ;
The haze disperses, and our sight to cheer,
Again peeps out the clear, blue atmosphere;
Clouds roll away, in ranks embattled high,
And lo! bright Pho3bus gleams throughout the
sky,
Clewing with brighter splendor to our gaze,
That clouds and vapors had obscured its blaze.
All life's astir—and sunshine gilds the scene,
Where blinding rain, and toles, and storms
had been ;
And outward nature, cheerful, doth impart,
Her own bright aspect to the mind nod heart.
Give praise to Him, then, whose Almighty will
Math bid the raging elements 'Be still."
