| Nearly 2 years ago. a son of Porter
Deviney living in Little Horse Val
10y, Franklin county, disappeared.
About that time newly made grave
in the mountains above Concord was
discovered. People talked awhile
about the new grave, and then had
it opened, but it was empty. Some
days ago the finding OF human bones
in the mountain near to Concord
brought to mind the missing Deviney
and the grave. The conjecture nowi is
that Dsviney was killed and placed
in the grave, but after the grave was
discovered, the murderer took the
body out. 1t is reported here, that
a Huntingdon county blacksmith has
been arrested, and that his arrest has
resulted in the arrest of a Franklin
county man.
Young Hostetter McGinnis, one of
the fashionable young bloods of Aus
tin, took yourg lady to church last
Sunday evening. As he had been up
quite late the night before, he was
very sleepy, consequently he did not
firt with the fashionable young lady
as hs h.d heretofore beel in the
habit of doing in church. "What is
the matter with yous" she asked in
a whisper. Il am not feeling well,
he whispered back. You wake up
and giggle little, anyhow. If we
don't misbehaye ourselves in church,
people will think we are married,
and want you to understand I've
got a reputation to sustain" After
that Hostetter McGinnis and the
young lady acted SO improperly that
the sexton had to go and whisper to
them to keep quiet.-7sras S,ftings.

This is truly sad bereavement |
Comparatively few families are called |
upon to undergo like visitation of
the hand of our over-ruliug Provi- /
dence. One little daughter is left as |
comfort to the deeply afflicted pa |
rents. May God preserve her rs o
monument of his mercy
Wagner, & Robson, the enterpris- |
ing young carriage makers had a
horse to run away from them last |
Friday evening, after night fall.
They had hitched a colt to an open
buggy, and drove to the country, on
their return, short distance beyond
East Point, bush got into a wheel
of the buggy, and as the bush was
broken the cracking noise, caused
the horse to jump forward and side
wise by which sudden jerk both
Wagner and Robson were thrown
out of the vehicle. Robson held
to the lines and was dragged
quite distance on the road, but be-
ing dragged on the road was a dan
gerous and unpleasant way of trav
cling. and safety to himself required
that he should stop, which he did by |
leaving go the hold that he had on
the lines. His coat was badly torn
but he was not hurt. Wagner was
not hurt. The animal came to town |
at furious rate of speed, but slack
ened its rate of running so gradually
till at last it came to stand still in
"Cox's hole" by Frank Mobiles sta
BILE. The colt was not hurt and did
not seem to be frightened. The
buggy was uninjured; taken all in
all it was remarkable accident in
this, that no injury was sustained.
The Huntingdon Journal, OF last
week says; Our readers will remem-
Der having seen in these columns
within the past fortnight notice OF
the killing on the railroad, at Johns
town, of boy about sixteen years of
age, whose identity was q mystery
until the arrival in that place of a
Mr.. Woodhead, of Baltimore. Tho
coroner who had held the inquest on
the unknown boy was shown a pho
tograph by Mr.. Woodhead, and after
careful examination of it declared
that the original of it had been killed
and buried ten days previous. Mr..
IW,odhead, after obtaining perniss-
