LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
lifir It appears there is to be no Coroner
elected this fall. We have been authorized,
therefore, to omit the same, in printing the
tickets.
lOW The Vigilance Committee of the Peo•
plo's Party of Huntingdon Borough, in: no.
quested to meet on Friday evening, at Conte'
Hotel.
FANCY— ' The "Conservatory" which has been
erected on our neighbor Miles' premises. It
is a tasty building and confers credit on its
projector and builder—Mr. Elias partol. Why
don't more of our citizens manifest a similar
taste for the rearing and preserving of beauti
ful flowers.
*fir Our neighbor up town consumes so
much of his space in noticing "big pumpkins,
squashes," &c., &c., that he is compelled to let
politics go by default. $75 a month is too snug
s sum to ask a man to give up for opposing the
repeal of the tonnage tax I Eh? neighbor?
Tue ESCASIPMENTEL—Camp Logan will, no
doubt, attract a large body of people at Ty
roue, this week. We learn that about twenty
companies intend being present. There is
also an encanpment to be held at the same
time—from Monday till Friday—at Lewistown.
The cannon taken by the Americans at Cerro
Gordo will be there ; and we fell confident that
there will be a good time at both encampments.
ear We had the pleasure of a visit from
Our candidate for Auditor General—Hon. Tho•
mat E. Cochran—last week. Mr. C. is a pol
ished gentleman, and when he hears the then.
der from "Old Mother Huntingdon," r.ext Oc•
tober, he will know our honest yeomanry have
delight in honoring men who, like "honest Tom
Cochran," have risen toeminence from the hum.
ble walks of life, through their own exertions.
Put us down for 800 majoety for Cochran and
the whole ticket, sure.
CONCERT.—Prof 'HMI gave a concert, or
rather a concert accompanied with an examin
ation of the singing class composed of our
young folks, which he has heen teaching for
the past nine days, in the Court Home, on
Thursday evening last. The whole affair was
highly creditable to the teacher and pupils.
We have seldom seer. a class make more rapid
progress in the "divine art." The promptness
in answering questions and the clear enuncia
tion of the tcords in singing, prove that the
class has been properly taught.
Pio Nun.--A number of our young men
and maidens had intended Visiting Terrace
Mountain, on Friday last, on a pleasure excur
sion, and all the preparations fur a good time,
were made on Thursday ; but alas 1 for hu•
man projects ; Friday morning was ushered
in with lowering clouds, and driizling ram; pro
ving the truth of the old adage that
"The beet laid schemes o' mice and men
Aft gang aglee.''
We understand the party postponed their via.
it, and went to the Warm Springs, where they
enjoyed themselves hugely.
Goon Stamm—We had the pleasure of lie.
toning to another eloquent sermon from Rev.
Reid, last Sabbath, from the text "The Lord is
my portion." The subject was ably handled ;
the vanity of earthly things strikingly portrayed.
It awakened in many a bosom that sweet
enthusiastic melancholy that sometimes steals
aeon the soul—when even thought itself is for
a while suspended, and every scene in nature
seems to wear an image of the mind. A kind
of anticipation of those pleasures we are taught
to expect hereafter ; the soul seems entirely
abstracted from every earthly idea, wrapped up
in the contemplation of futlre happiness. Ask
yourself in one of these moments, what there
is in this world that is worth a thought ; and
you will answer nothing ; its greatest subluna
ry pleasure is but as a dream, and vanishes like
a shadow. This should convince us more than
anything, that them is a future state ; our souls
were formed to taste higher delights, more re
fined sensations, then anything in this life can
excite ; and something teem within tells us we
shall one day enjoy them—else why these ideas
--why these expectations—of what use would
be those noble sentiments with which the mind
to sometimes Impressed, if we were only to act
an insignificant part for a few years in this life,
and then sink into nothing Z No, there must
be a future state, and that immortal.
Reflect on this, and think, ere 'tie too late,
Row short a space may terminate your fate;
To-morrow—or to night may be your last,
Then stay the fleeting minutes as they pass,
Nor idly let them go neglected by,
For every one leads to eternity.
Torturous.—Thin delicious, wholesome vege
table is spoiled by the manner it is served upon
the table. It is not one time in a hundred
more than half cooked. It ie simply scalded,
and served as sour porridge. It ehould be cooked
three hours—it cannot be cooked in one. The
fruit should be cut in halves and the seeds
Scraped out. The mucilage of the pulp may be
saved it'd:sited, by straining out the seeds, and
adding it to the fruit, which should boil rapidly
for an hour. and Ammo* three hours more until
the matter is dissolved, and ti,z, contents of the
saucepan a pulpof mucilaginous ma;ter, which
is much improved by putting in the pan, either
before patting in the fruit or while it is cooking
an ounce of butter and half a pound of fat ba
con cut fine, to half a peck of tomatoes and a
small pepper pod, with salt to suit the taste.—
The fat adds a pleasant flavor, and makes the
dish actual food, instead of a mere relish. The
pan must be carefully watched and but little
fire used, and the mass stirred often to prevent
burning toward the last, when the water is
nearly all evaporated. The dish may be render
ed still more attractive and rich as food by
breaking in two or three eggs, and stirring
vigorously just time enough to allow the eggs
to become well cooked may he put in tight
cans, and kept any length of time ; or the
pulp may be spread upon plates and dried lee
the sun, or a slow oven, and kept as well as
dried pumkin , dried apples, peaches, or pears,
and will be found equally excellent in winter.
For every day use, a quantity sufficient for the
use of a family a week may be cooked at once,
and afterwards eaten cold, or warmed over.—
We beg of those who use this excellent fruit
to try what cooking will do for it. It has been
eaten half cooked long enough. It never
should be dished until dry enough to be taken
from the dish to the plates with a fork, instead
of a spoon.
Nervous Diseases Controlled and
Conquered.
Of all the various ills that detra et from the
enjoyment of human life, most of them may be
traced to a disordered condition of the nervous
system. The horrors of Epilepsy, or Falling
Sickness, arise in most cases from this cause.
Our readers may remember, on several occa
sions before, we have alluded to the wonderful
cures, or modifications of Fits, made by the
Vegetable Extract Epileptic Pills, invented
and prepared by Dr. Seth S. Hance, of 108
Baltimore Street, Baltimore, Ed. We feel
fully satisfied that these Pills have cured some
of the most stubborn cases of Epilepsy, as
well as the milder forms of Fits, such as severe
Cramps, Spasms, Ste. We now record the
fact, that persons will find these Pills equally
efficacious in curing every form of nervous
debility;—no matter whether manifested in the
acute nod excruciating form of Neuralgia, Tic
Doloreux, or Nervous Headache, the misery of
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, the sufferings of
Rheumatism or Gout, the melancholy halluci.
nation of depressed spirits or hysteria, their of.
facts will be equally happy and certain.—
Persons in the country can write to the lave',
tor, and have the medicine forwarded to them
by mail. The prices are, one box, $3; two
boxes $5; twelve boxes $24; and sent to any
part of the country, free of postage. Direct

The importance of this invention will be
readily appreciated, as it is well known that
children invariably wear out their boots and
shoes

ernge wear at least two to three times as long
as the old style, while the expense is but a trifle
more. . . . . .

County Fairs (the only fairs at which they
have been yet exhibited) in competition with
the Wheeler & Wilson, Singer, end oilier ma
chines, and are offered to the public with con—
fidence as being the cheapest and beef ma
chine in the market. They are now in exten•
sive use and have met the unqualified appro
val of all who have tried them. They are
strong and simple in construction, and are not
liable to get out of order, as an examination
will fully satisfy every one. They will do as
great a variety of work, do it as well and do
as much of it as the high priced machines can
do.
FAMILIES, TAILORS & SEAMSTRESSES

purposes they are unequalled. By a simple
adjustment of the tension, a stich is made
which gathers beautifully. The stich is the
Double Lock Stitch, strong and elastic, and
will not unravel or draw• the goods when washed.
The thread is used from spools of any sine,
as purchased at the stores, without re-winding.
Instructions in operating the machines given
to purchasers. Each machine is accompanied
' with directions, which ore very explicit, and
contain all the information necessary to 1. p
