More than halfa century passed away,
Tho aged and faithful pastor was long
dead. though his memory still fingered
in many retired glen. His son, whose
locks Were white with age, was preaching
to congregation of Aighlaudors in one
of QUE great cities. 1t was a communion
sabbath. The subject of discourse was
the love Of Christ. In illustrating the
sclfsacrifcing nature of "that love which
Seeketh not her own" he narrated the
above story ofihe Highland widow whom
he had himself known in his boyhood. -

The FAIR.-The sixth annual exhibi-
tion of the Cambria County Agricultural
Society, which was held on the Sd, 4th
and 9th inst, was quite success. The
weather was propitious, and the number
of articles on exhibition was quite large
The crowd Of people in attendance, how
ever, was small.
The exhibition in the stock department
was magnifcent-indeed it is seldom that
one sees better horses, cattle, &c, than
were there collected. The array of fruit,
vegetables, &C., could not be surpassed
1t was in the ladies' department, howev-
er, that the finest display was made. This
room was crowded with specimens of plain
and fancy needlework, embroidery, pain
tings, bouquets, and other elegant ct Get
eras, while preserves and jellies of all kinds,
bread and butter, and hundred other
Of the solids and delicacies of life filled
| up the interstices. There were numerous
articles in this department that did not
| obtain premiums which we're well deser-
wing thereof.
Friday was the principal day. A lar
ger crowd visited the grounds on that day
than on the other two combined. At 10
o'clock, A. NJ, grand foot-race for two
purses Of IS and $3.50, was run. a large
number of competitors entered the ring
| but the prizes were carried off by j ohm o
Evans and NJ. Downey. The ladies
equestrian match came off at o'clock, P
VI. Six ladies competed for the honors
namely, Mrs Geo Barrett, Mrs. DIR. Low
man, Mrs. l. Crawford, Miss Nef, Miss
Gurley and Miss Magellan. The frs
premium was awarded to Miss NefT anC
he second to Miss Magellan. At , y
NJ, another foot-race came of. The lucky
individuals this time were Hugh Jones
first premium of $4 c. I. Lawson
second premium of 50; and Patrick Do
ran, third premium of 81. At + 2. NJ.
the Fantasies held their parade. Thi
was company of grotcsqlely arrayeC

THE PRINCE OF WALEs.-This some
what celebrated gentleman, it viii be re-
membered, after short stay at Pittsburg,
proceeded to Harrisburg uia the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad. In doing so, he unavoid-
ably passed through portion of Cambria
county. A reporter of the New. York
Tribune, who accompanied the Prince,
thus speaks Of that portion of the trip
which will most interest our readers
''The passage to Harrisburg was through
the most remarkable country yet traversed.
At Gallitzin, upon the summit of the Allie
gheny Mountains, the Prince and his suite
including Colonel Grey, Major Treesdale, Sir
Henry Howard, and others-left the car and
mounted the locomotive, upon which they
rode as far as Altoona, gaining the freest
view of the remarkable railway descent around
kittanning Point, and of the wonderful scene
ry hereabout revealed. At Altoona the
Prince resumed his car, leaving it only at
Harrisburg"
There, deniZen of the mountain ! Since
you have ascert inod that Prince has
even suffered himself to feel an interest in
your matchless scenery, won't you have a
more exalted opinion Of your Mountain
Home We will-yery much so.

Horse THIEF ARREsTED.-On Sunday
before last, man calling himself Schriver
was arrested on suspicion of being engaged
IN horse thieving, and lodged in our coun-
y jail. The circumstances which led to
his arrest are as follows: He was travel
ing westward, and when a few miles east
Of this place he fell IN with two boys who
we're going the same direction. Being Of
a communicative turn Of mind, he made
confidantes Of them, and, among other
things, he told them that he had assisted
IN running a horse from Indiana county
down the country. After they had pro-
ceedc1 2 few miles west Of town, Schrivcr
on some pretext gave the boys the go-by,
and took to the woods. The boys contin-
ued on their way, and meeting with MIR.
Thomas r. Davis, of Jackson tp., they
rave him a detailed account of Schriver's S
anteccdents and also full description Of
him. Mr. D. determined to keep look
out for the chap, and towards evening he
came along, when he was unceremOniously
stopped and brought to town and commit
ted to jail. He subsequently, gave such
information as resulted in the finding OF
the horse in Clearfeld county. The horse
belonged to Thomas Sloan, Of Indiana
county. Schriver was taken to the Indi-
ana Jail on Friday.
We may here state, by the way, that
| this Schriver is the identical parsonage
who has travelled so extensively over the
country for some time past, and entered
! into contracts for the purchase of innu
merable farms-contracts which he ha:
not and never intended fulfilling. From
all accounts he may safely be set down a:
an unmitigated villain.

discussion at the "Ebensburg Literary As
