ures have lately been frequent and that
there is somewhat unsettled state of
feeling between employers and the
wage class and 1t would be unwise to
ignore these symptoms. But whatever
tendency these facts may indicate, it
would bo an eXtrayagant Interpretation
to regard them as Implying any serious
unsoundness in the business Of the
country at large. There is far more
reason Tor regarding the general c0ndi.

Taking the coultry as whole, there
perhaps never was period at which
more was being done in the way Of
healthy developement of our resources
than at the present time. The fact
that prices are kept down to moder

for it implies that in the fact Of an un-
precedentCd consumption, we are keep

our capital to good purpose. Philips

Our board of County Commission
ers are taking NEW departure and
have decided to hold the appeals for the
entire county in Bellefonte, presama-
bly, on the plea Of economy. We have
no disposition to criticiSe the acti on
of the board, but only reflect the nearly
unanimous sentiment Of our people
in stating that this arrangement is very
unsatisfactory to the tax payers. Trien
nial appeals have always been held in
the respective boIodghs and townships
and ought to be. It gives all concern
ed Il fair and equal chance to examine
their assessments and valuation, VIII ere
us if the appeals be held in B-llefonte a
majority of the people residing at any
considerable distance are practically
barred from this privilege. Nor do we
see that anything will be saved in ex
pense. If an average Of but five men
a very small munber-from each town
ship would attend appeals i'll Bellefonte
their expenses would BE- much more
than that o: the board in going from
place to place. Other good reason
might be urged why the old custom
should bo followed and the JOURNAL
respectfully suggest to the board to re-
consider its action and decide TO hold
their appeals in the boroughs and town
ships as before. Any other system will
certainly cause much dissatisfaction.

ACCIDENT.-Last Thursday very
singular and well nigh fatal accident
happened right in the centre Of town.
Mr.. II. II. Tomlinson and Mr.. A. A.
Miller were coming from CJburn with
a load Of goods on one horse spring
wagon. They had placed the seat or top
of the boxes and were sitting on it.
MI. TomlinsOn who acted driver made
the turn at Alexander'5 corner a little
too fast and short which had the effect
to throw the men violently to the
ground. The matter looked badly and
it was at first feared by those who saw
it that both men might be killed. Help
was soon at hand and the sufferers
were carried away. Mr.. TOmlinsOn
was not much hurt and was out again
next morning but Mr.. Miller's injur
les were more serious and his case
seemed rather doubtful for a while
r. was unconscious for some hours and
bled profusely from the one ear, indica-
ting internal injuries in the head. He
is better however and at this writing
considered pretty we'll out Of dang er.

JOS. II. Feger, Proprietor.

A gain it becomes cur sad duty to
chronicle the death Of one oi our es-
teemed fathers. Mr.. Philip Stoyer de-
parted this life at the residence Of his
son-in-law, Mr.. Jacob w. Shook, Mill
helm, on Wednesday morning, the 23d
inst, at 8 o'clock, in the 72nd year of
his age. His sickness was caused by
urinary troubleS.at first, but other COM
plications were soon added and he suf-
fered much during the one weel; he was
confined to his bed. Before that time
he had always enjoyed excellent health,
being blessed with strong and sound
constitution.

whole lifetime in bis native township,

the first settlers Of eastern PennS Val

and industrious class of men. Their
numerous progeny us well as the entire
generation Of the present, owe them a
debt of gratitude which can be paid on

by their hard labor, their privations
and endurance, that this partof Centre
county was transformed from wilder
ness into one Of the most beautiful and
productive parts of the state-a very
garden spot of the earth.
Mr.. Slower was man of very kind
andgentle disposition. This happy trait
marked all his social intercourse with
his friends. In business matters he was
governed by those sterling principles of
integrity SO proverbial among the true
Pennsylvania Germans.
