about four tons of honey on his premises
in Cambria township, nearly all of which
will reach market in the due course of time.
He also has on abundance of italian bees, to
whose industry the above immense crop of
honey is due, and has several queens of the /
same variety, guaranteed to be pure, which /
he is prepared to sell and introduce to any |
body's hive for SO per queen Who wouldn't |
have a queen of his own at that price ,
Think of it, Chaplain. ..,
-''Gidcon's Band' party of nocturnal
nuisances who need knocking on the nod |
dies very numerously, gave US, for the first
tine, a heariug-of their vocaiistic and /
shoutalistic powers-between two and
three o'clock yesterday morning, and we
must say for them that as dispensers of a
double-distilled decoction of diabolical dis !
cords they certainly remove the dilapidated
6rapery from off the shrubbery. May Cas-
tie Banner soon be the pent-up Utica to con-
fine their powers and improve their morals
A charge of powder which was being
tamped yesterday Thursday afternoon by
an employee in p. NJ. & j. Browns stone
quarry, at Summerhill, this county, sudden
ly exploded, throwing out the tamping bar,
completely destroying the eyes of the work
man, and otherwise injuring him beyond re-
covery, besides almost tearing off one of the
hands and badly. mutilating the person of
another employee named Jacob Popp, and
fracturing an arm and injuring very severe
ly the head of still another one named Gala
han. The first mentioned, whose name we
tailed to learn, was from Gailitzin.
We were no little surprised last week
on oDeoi,,p one of Our eychanpps tO Fl nd thar
1t had not only changed its name, but that
our friend Joseph Bardne, Esq, formerly
of White township, more recently of Loretto
Springs, but now of Mt. Union, Huntingdon
county, had got up on his Era--the Peoples
Erd-and revolved himself into the chair
editorial The paper is the outcome of
the Mt Union Times, purchased by the pres
ent firm, of which, however, the Squire is
not member, provided of course that our
eyes do not deceive our ear-sight. Be that
as it may, we hope he has a Iice thing of it
and that the Era may live long and prosper.
"A little son of Mr. David Reed, of
Johnstown aged about seven years, fell off
a wall in front of DR.. Lowman's residence
into the Stony Creek, on Tuesday morning
last, and was drowned before aid could
reach him, the water being exceedingly
high and the current as consequence very
rapid. Several persons standing near wit
messed the sad calamity, but were unable to
extend a helping hand. His body had not
been recovered ut latest accounts. Two
daughters of the same gentleman are lying
seriously i'll, and the grief occasioned by the
tragic death of their little brother has rem
dercd their recovery somewhat doubtful.
Verify, misfortrnes never come singly.
