small slice for the FREEMAN, though not too
small to forbid its exhibition for few days

The Altoona Sul, saws that meeting
of gentlemen interested in the projected
railroad between that city and Cherrytree
was held at the Logan House on Friday last.
Among those who are taking an active part
in the enterprise are Dr. Baker and Mr
Moore of the firm Of ID G c. Moore, of Al
tOona Hon. ID. j. MOTTell, of Johnstown,
F and Captain Buckett, DR.. Reed and MI
Martin, of Pittsburgh At the meeting III
question no business of importance was
transacted, but very general feeling or de-
termination to push the matter to success
full issue prevailed.
We are sorry to learn that 1t Is only a
question of time. and probably very brief
time at that. for our good old friend James
Condor, Esq, of Summitville, who for seY-
eral months past has been suffering from tle (
/ effects of paralysis and other causes, and .
who at latest accounts was in Seni-con- .
scious condition and evidently beyond the .
/ reach of medical aid That his death, winch 7
. seems rapidly approaching, may be happy .
one and we know of no reason why it .
should be otherwise, IS the heartfelt prayer F.
Of all who know him only to esteem illhl as .
. an honest man and deyOut Christian.
