GREAT WANTING hear the ladies of
this place complaining greatly of the
scarcity of domestics. Large numbers of
houSekeepers have no help, and tho the
full price for such services is offered, and
Of course would be promptly paid, girls
are not to be had. If there are any in the
country or neighborhood, or in the adj
joining villages or towns, who understand
the ordinary duties of domestics, and de-
sire good places and fair wages. let them
come to HOliidaysburg and we have no
doubt they can secure for themselves good
employers and good homes. Fifty, at
least, are wanted at present.-HOUidays
6urg Standard.
Domestics are also scarce here, though
hundreds of girls from twelve years up
are daily running about the streets, who
do not earn the salt they eat at home
When we were boy, the rule among all
classes was that each boy was to earn his
spending money for the year during corn
planting, haymaking and harvest. If pa
rents here and elsewhere were to compel
girls to earn their dresses, ice cream, cake
and candy money by honest labor they
would spend less, dress less, and make
better wives than most of them do. AS
1t IS, thousands of fathers and mothers
are mere slaves to the vanity and pride
OF their children, who think it dishonor-
able and disgraceful to do that which
their parents do daily.

ACcIDENTs.-A COW owned by Robert
" Shaw was run over by the cars on the
M& c. R. r. on Wednesday last, and
had both its hind legs broken, and was
otherwise bruised.
A cow belonging to Judge Woods
ehoked on All apple on Monday night
last, and was found dead in the field next
morning.
The Miffiin and Centre train ran off the
track the other day at Mann's Axe Fac
tory, but all hands we believe escaped
without injury.
We hear it stated that Gabriel Lehr's
family, at Mt. Rock Mills, were poisoned
by eating rice soup. All the family We're
taken sick, as well as a Mr.. Emory who
boards there. The mere eating of rice
soup could not produce such an effect,
and it was probably caused by something
mixed in the rice, or the utensil in which
it was cooked.
IcE.-During the hot days of last week
many no doubt felt the want of ice, and
those who have it appreciate it as sum-
ner luxury. Peter Ort continues to sup
NV our citizens, and all who do not take
il should engage at once.
RoBBERY.-Loop's shoe store was en-
tered on Saturday or Sunday night, and
things generally thrown about the shop.
Some of the goods were removed, but
what quantity we did not learn.
On Thursday night week, we learn
from the Democrat, some persons entered
the dwelling house of John Hays, and
stole a valuable gold watch and $500 in
money. The watch was taken from un-
der Mr.. Hays pillow. The same night
R. NJ. Kinsloe's house was entered and
$50 taken therefrOm.
DEATHs.-George Sigler, Esq, of De-
catur township, died quite suddenly last
week while sitting in chair.
Matthew B. Taylor, of Brown town.
ship, who visited Minnesota lately for the
benefit of his health, died at Lake City
fewweeks ago. His remains were brought
home for interment.
BAD BoYS.-A few weeks ago eight
lashes were cut off of a new fly net on
horse hitched at Franks store. 1t be-
longed to Mr.. Huffnagle of Derry town
ship, and we hear he is willing to pay
reward for the rascals who did the mis-
chief. The House of Refuge ought to
have at least dozen of young scamps
from this town in it, in which case there
would be less malicious mischief carried
on.

DECETrFUL APPEARANCES. - Nathan
Longfellow OF Machias, is one of the richest
men, ii not the richest man in town.
His dress, and personal appearance however.
do not indicate acedlth, but impress you with
the idea, that he is man of very moderate
circumstances: lie is large real-estate own
er, and extensively interested in navigation.
A few years ago, one of his vessels arrived in
port al Machias-a fine brig commanded by
CAPT. Spencer, of which Mr.. L. was sole
owner.
On the day OF her arrival, Mr.. L. went on
board and had an interviewwith his favorite
captain.
The day following he went on board again.
and the captain being absent, he walked
leisurey about the vessel examining careful
ly all upon her deck, and taking hold first of
one thing and then of another, as though he
had right to do so.
The mate OF the brig watched him closely,
and was By no means pleased with his appear
ance or movements. He thought Mr. i. was
some loater who had come on board for the
purpose OF plumber.
Being the proper guardian of the vessel for
the time being, he walked along, and TAKING
DIR. Lily the collar, said: sold telloso, uoa
tea0e tbs vessel quick; L hauc seen goa here be-
fore; ytu soant to steal something; go on to the
aoharJ quick, and don't let me see you on board
~ UtLS UeSSet UyutH. "! yes, SAID Mr. u.
Il will co." and he started Immediately for
the villsge, and on the way he met Capt. Spen-
Ger. "You have got smart man for mate,
Captain" said Mr.. L. "Indeed 1 have" re-
piled the Captain, IL guess he takes good care
of things" said Mr. L. The Captain was
much pleased that Mr.. L. had formed SO fav-
orable an opinion of that officer, and after a
little more conversation they parted
The next day he met Captain Spencer, and
again remarked, 81 am much pleased with
your mate, guess he would not let any body
steal anything. He would not let me steal any,
thing the other day" said Mr.. L., "and L adj
wise you to keep him as long as you cam"
When the mate learned that the sold fellow"
whom he ordered or to the wharf, with Or
ders not to return again, was the sole owner
ofthe brig, and also several other large vessels,
he was somewhat astonished.
Mr. Longfellow enjoyed the joke, and often
speaks of it, commencing the mate tor his
jaithfulness.
We may learn from this incident, that
man'sdress is but poor evidence of his acealth
or ooisd0m.-ElLs,oOrth american.

A SHREwD FEMALE SpEoULAToR.-The
Amador (Cal) Ledger tells the subjoined s.
short time ago widow lady, residing in a vii
lage not thousand miles from here, put her
house up at rattle, and very soon disposed
of the tickets-all feeling disposed to assist her.
The evening arrived for the rattle to come off,
and the house was won by gentleman who
thought himself fortunate in obtaining a
homestead so cheap. The next day he APP
piled for possession and title to the properly.
formed that it was unnecessary to give any
written title to the house-that there it was
and to take it; and the sooner the better, as
she was anxious to build another on the spot
where it stood. The winner discovered that
he had drawn an elephant-he had house,
but no lot"

The Spring that is Coming.

The sweet Spring has come again
With its beauty and its cheer;
The winds are whispering loyer-lke
What the young leaves thrill to hear.
There are blooms enow spray and Dough.
There are flowers on hill and lea
Yet well know that Spring is coming
With never a bloom for me.

Frolicking down the hill,
And all the day his roundelay
The wild bird singeth still;
A pleasant, pleasant sound to hear,
And CHEEKY singer he,-
All well, but Spring will surely come,
With never song for me.
o, sweet is the air censer's breath,
1t thrills my heart like wine:
And down from heaven like Gods sweet smile.
Cometh the etsunshine.
o life is sweet, o life is dear,
And the grave-it is dark and dree
All !well-a-day for the Spring that's coming
Coming-but not for me.
Yet shall my heart take hope and cheer;
There soon will come Spring,
with songsa thousand times more sweet.
Than any the birds can sing;
With flowers a thousand times more fair
Than any atield may be-
God send that Spring may come and abide
For ever with you and me-
