Juniata COunty.-From the Mif1intown
papers of last week we copy the follow
ing
The bodies of Tobias Kreider and Jacob
Wilson, who were drowned last week, have
been recovered.
The entire breast works of Robison's
mill dam, in Milford twp, was swept away
last week by the freshet in Licking Creek.
The festival given by the Methodist
denomination of Perrysville, was decided
success, netting them $115.
During the prevalence of the tremendous
rain-storm, on Tuesday night of last week,
fine young mare belonging to John p.
Kelly residing in Beale twp, was killed by
lightning. The mare was standing under
an oak tree in the pasture field. The light
ming struck the tree.
One can ride for miles without encoun-
tering fence along the small streams in
Juniata, so thoroughly have they been
washed away by the freshet. The damage to
any one individual is not very heavy, but
in the aggregate they amount to thousands.
We learn that Mrs Jane Orr, of Perrys-
vile, who claims to be a sister of John
Mcbride, who was recently murdered near
Williamsport, has fully empowered DR.. G.
nj. Graham, to prosecute the claim. The
Doctor returned from Williamsport on
Saturday last and says that scarcely a
doubt can exist as to the relationship.

IA Mystery solved.-A correspondent

T,A Mystery Solyed.-A correspondent
from Marysville sends the following re-
garding the finding of the skeleton Of
little girl in the Cove Mountain.
"Many of your readers no doubt remem-
Der the intense excitement created in Al
lens Cove, this county, some two years
ago by the sudden as well rs mysterious
disappearance Of a child aged about eleven
years, daughter of Mrs. Krounch, who
was at that time keeping house for a Mr..
Shoup, of that place. After the people
were apprized of the fact that child was
lost parties of men left their homes to scour
the country in all directions but all in vain
A few days since ION Tuesday 10th l
think the remains of child were found
by couple of hunters, concealed under
the rocks on the top of the Cove Mountain.
Its remains were brought TO Marysville,
where the mother now lives, and were rec
ognized by her as being her child by some
clothing yet to be seen. Some say the
skull is broken, others that the bones were
eaten away by squirrels; but one thing
think we can safely say, that without help
the child did not get there If it had been
found when they were searching for it,
nothing would have saved suspected per-
son from being lynched but now that this
length of time has elapsed many think it
would be best to let the matter rest. We
think not. Let justice be done, and if
the parties are guilty, which no doubt they
are, why should they not answer for it?
Again why should not the matter be in
vestigated An old but true saying is,
"Time will bring to light whatever is hid
den and surely time has divulged the
secret this time.
NoTE.-The child referred to in the above
communication was missed from home ON the
14th of July, 1871, and the Sunday following
several hundred persons were hunting over the
mountain for her, but no one went up to the
place where the bones were found as it was inn
possible for the child to have got up there
without help Ed -t
