tetfgeneer says; Miss Hoy, young lady who ha,
been a student at the Millcrsyille Normal School
for some time, was taken from that place recently
by her friends in condition which awakened
much sympathy among all who knew her. She
was very close student, and cIccllcd in all she
undertook, being fine musician and showing
great skill and taste in drawing She kept in ad-
vance of her elnsses in other severe studies, and
her intense application prostrated her system and
unsettled her reason. 1t is to be hoped that she
may soon be restored to health and soundness Of
mind. Miss lIoy's people live near Bellcfonte.

FIHED.-Parties have been in the
habit of trOtting and running horses and cattle
across the bridges on the west side Of the borough,
contrary to the act of Assembly in such cnses
made and provided. The officers of the bridges
have made information against some of the offend

1t is much against the law, to drive horse

horses Hence, all should respect the law if they

A SroRM.-Our village was visited
on Sunday last by storm of wind, hail and rain,
doing considerable damage. Shade and fruit trees
were uprooted and tops twisted of, 10 the great
alarm Of old and young. A new dwelling house
on the other side of the river just ready for the
roof was badly twisted out Of shape by the wind,
and carriage in the upper portion of the borough
was turned over and over, sustaining considerable
damage by this new system of propelling vehicles.
Houses with open windows on the west and north
were completely drcnchcd, and in number oi
instances the windows were blown out.

the Jail of that county demand a bible. Such
enterprising individuals should certainly be en-

OF all the familiar features of the family
there Is none that possesses a greater inter
est or a greater capacity OF contributing TO
the household happiness than the table. II
is the prime unifier-the first and chief
promptcr of that unity which makes the
family the integer OF all human organization.
IL yields more than patriarchial authority.
The fathers commands may be forgotten (:
the mothers wishes thoughtlessly disregard
ed, but with it, white cloth is power which
il never resisted or sighted.
The members of the family may be scat
tered in different Flaces--some at the count
ing-house, some at the workshop, some In
the forest. In pursuit Of pleasure, or prose-
cution OF duty. The magic of the white
cloth reaches them wherever they are, aud
its mute invitation summons them home.
Aud even when the family Is shattered 10
fragments and scattered over the whole
earth--when each departing member has
become the head of different family, that
unforgOttcn picture OF "A white Goth and "a
tea urn will still assert It's power and gather
the wanderers from distant lands " Joyous
thanksgiving under the old root tree.
The family board should be hOnOrcd Of all,
with joy, peace and love. IL Is a shrine
where churlshncss, GOODNESS, silence and
frowns should have no place. IL may be-
made thrice "A day the scene Of "A festival
richer and rarer than picnics In wooded
groves, or sumptuous feasts In gilded ga
looms. Its offerings may be frugal aud
humble-but no matter; better T. its dinner
OF herbs, If favored with love and spiccd
with vivacity, than the rich courses Of
grand hotel. where strange hundreds swal-
low and gulp amid clatter Of dishes, re-
gardless of each others presence--Or the
weary and mOnotonous meals OF the board
ing house, where the people know each other
too well to be entirely reserved, and too
little to be familiar. Each Assemblage round
the family table has its peculiar charm, aud
each may be made feast.
The table Is no place for stif dignity, or
austerity. Biting bread and butter, and
taking soup from aspOon may be done pleas
antly and gracefully; but tO'infuse dignity
into the operation i ineXeusably ridiculous.
Hunger Is "A levelleT, and eating aud drink
ing is one Of the most delightful pleasures.
No one has a right 10 disguise the innocent
satisfaction Of IL at the family board, by the
atiectatiOn of an exemption from 30 human
weakness ~ an appetite or disdain Of the
viands set before him. The pleasantist fam
lily pictures are those cheerful dining groom
assemblages, where father, mother, brother,
sisters eat and drink cheerily, as though II
did them good, and cloth, urn, dishes and
spoons seem to look happy in general joy
ErchauQe.
