TAKING SToCK.-Frank w. Hay was
busily engaged on New Years day in taking
an inventory of his remaining stock. after
which he intends TO run the new year harder
than he did the old one. One would think,
from the rushing business that Mr.. Hay does,
that the world would long ago have been sup
piled with cooking apparatus, but folks are
always getting married, setting up house, or
moving from one place to another. and stoves
are demanded every day. Mr.. Frank Hays

Dear Freeman-T The Old year passed away
here, amid voleys Of musketry. There was
not piece of ordnance about town that was
not called into requisition, and the people
who intend to live another year had a gay
time generally.
The holidays. however, would not have
been so gay had it not been for the Catholic
fair, which has already been open for ten
days. There was an immense crowd of Peo.
pie in the Hall every evening, and terpsicho-
rean amusements were INDUCED in hugely.
On Christmas day 500 were taken in, and
thus far about 81 500 have been realized.
The amount will reach three thousand dol
lars before the fair closes but expenses must
be paid out of this. Thirty dollars per day
are paid for the Union Hail. and then the
large bills for items furnished for the fair
will run up to $500 or 5000. Owing to the
fact that the District Court opened here to-
day the fair vas removed 10 the Zouave

HUNTLEY What shall we say of
Huntley that has not been said over and over
again ? That he has the largest store, the
biggest stock and the greatest variety of hard
ware, tinware, stoves, ETC., in Cambria county,
is known of all men. and women too for that
matter, and that he sells at prices which no
dealer pretends to surpass for cheapness is
iact equally patent to all. Still these truths
cannot be repeated too often, and then repeti-
tion should have the effect of inducing people
to buy where they can always buy or the best

Dear Fi'eeHlan-The events of the past
year, although of peaceful character, are
destined to exercise an influence on the world
OF the most momentum import. The COM
petion of the French Cable, the Suez Canal
ard the Pacific Railroad, with the assembly
Of Ecumenica Council, will form landmarks
in the history of the world. In tho materi-
al world, our elder brother of the East has
been suddenly awakened from his dreamy
and Leathcuish civilization, numbering its
history by thousands Of years, to confront
his Younger brother of the West. French
enterprise aud engineering skill have tri-
IMPLIED on the historic shores of the Red
Sea /; American enterprise and skill have
triumphed over tie snow clad sierras and
alid plains of the western continent; so that
in the far old East and on the shores of the
Pacific the power, vigor and energy of the
western nations are invading the weak and
effete civilization Of the Orientais.
The roll of distinguished dead" for the
past year is unusually large, especially IN
our own country. Many men who Fave
left their impress upon the age in which
they lived, have gone to their reward.
The dying year left US with a smile on
his counterance, and his last hours were lit
up by radiant sunshine, worthy Of April or
May. Twas fitting termination of most
fruitful season-perhaps the moet fruitful
