DISTINGUISHED AERIyAL.-Wo observe
that the crazy itinerant refomcr, whose
name is to us unknown, but whom the
boys, in consequence Of his devotion TO
tho tenets of one Of the religious socts Of
the day, aud which are the general bur
then Of his horrangues, have styled "old
seven day." is again following in the high
ways and at the street corners What
seems most singular to us, is that he re-
ceiyes more encouragement in his insane
and lawless vocation than many man
does in an honest and useful one. We
would recommend for him proiossorship
in some well regulated institution.
STORM AT LocEuAvEN. We learn with
regret that severe storm prevailed at
Lock Haven on the light of the 18th inst,
which has evidently inflicted serious loss
es upon several of our lumbermen. A.
bout an hour before day light on Saturday
morning, from twenty to twenty-five rafts
were broken from their iastenings at tho
above named place, and were all carried
over the dam. We have as yet been una~
bic to ascertain the extent Of the damage
done to the RATS, bat it could not well
help being serious, as the height Of the
dam is such thatrarts are generally entire
" wrecked to pieces in gong over it. Mr.
Jacob Irwin, a nd Mr.. Alexander Living,
ston are the only persons we have vet
heard named among the sufferer.
