The laying on of n fatherly hand, pos
teriorly, on Saturday evening last-a proceed
ing which was supeTinduced by slight act
of disobedience on the part of the juvenile
for r short time threatened serious results
to little boy in this place. inasmuch as the
shock caused crumb of sweet cake which
the urchin, unknown TO his father, was
munchiug at the time, to Obstruct his respi-
ratorv organ, otherwise known as the wind
pipe, and strangulation followed as matter
of course. The lad become black in the face
in few moments, but all efforts to relieve
him proved futile until the father thought
of inserting one of his fingers into the
chiId's throat. which fortunately disIodged
the crumb and brought relief to the little
sufferer. Moral-Don't chastise child at
one extreme until you are sure that there is
no danger OF strangulation at the other.

picnic for the benefit of the Loretto Cornet
Band came off in the grove convenient to our
readers of the FREEMAN respecting ii may be
state the following particulars: The Loret-
to COrnet Band, although but comparatively
short time in existence, has made astonishing
progress under the competent instruction OF
Prof. p. J. BraddOck, and when experience has
developed the musical talent which this band
is known to possess, there is reason to believe
that they will bear successful comparison with
any band in our larger towns and cities The
occasion which called together the good people
of LOretUO and other localities, on Wednesday
and Thursday last, was one which afforded in
nocent recreation exceedingly enjoyable under
the cool and refI eshing shade of the lofty oaks,
whose foliage constituted a natural canopy
against the rays of a SOsttial sun, To the
sweet strains of the violin many gay-hearteG
votaries of Terpschore moved gracefully on
the light fantastic toe" the spacious horizon
tai surface of the platform affording ample ac-
commodations for the exercise of those evolu-
tions in the lively cotillon. Tue Band played
gratifying and congenial to our Irish element,
''St. Patrick's Day" and the wearing OF the
Green Everything passed of pleasantly, for
good order, cheerfulneSS and the utmost enjoy
ment were the characteristics of the nice and
neat picnic for which the Loretto Cornet Band
is entitled to a large need of praise from their
many generous friends in and around this sec
ton of the AiIeghenies. VERTTAS-
