when the Mail Express was leaving
Cresson and the Mail west pulled up at the
same station on last Saturday evening, the
engineer OF the latter train noticed a man
lying at the side of the track, and when pick
ed up blood was gushing from his nose and
mouth, He was taken to Altoona, where
the company physician failed to find any
marks Of violence on his person, though be
seemed to be suffering great pain. He gave
his name as Stout, his age as 10 years, and
his home in Lehigh county, and said that he
had been struck by one of the two trains
named. He was sent to the Blair county
almshouse for treatment.

Soon after we entered the old Standard
Office, in HOlHdaysburg, many years ago, to
wrestle with the ''art preservative, J" we took
a'fancy to the Franklin (Pa. Spectator, then
as now, we presume, one of its most vel
come weekly visitors and we seldom failed
to cOnfiscate it for our own entertainment.
This admiration for that venerable and ably
conducted Democratic paper has '' grown
with our growth and strengthened with our
strength" +" and now that It has Just entered
or the thirty-fifth year of jts long and pros
porous career, we bid it hail and trust that
its DAYS in the land and the dollars in its
treasury may be next to innumerable.
New and latest style gossamers at Bar

An exchange says that q" a new railroad,
be built, beginning at JohnstOwn and con-
ueoting with the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
at that point, thence by the Conemaugh and
KiskemiDetas rivers, and it is said will fol-
low the bed of the old canal, as the Z. X. X.
does not occupy it, through Apollo and
Leechburg, down to the Allegheny river,
crossing and going through FreepoTt, thence
up the Big Buffalo 20 Butler, and connecting
with the Pittsburgh and Western, thus giving
the Is. & O. r. r. an outlet to Pittsburgh,
east and west. Engineers are already en-
gagged surveying and laying ont the road. :
Your brother wants a gOssamer from Bar
kers'
A kindly act was done in Blacklick
township few days ago, and we only re-
gret that our correspondent did not furnish
us with the names of the gentlemen who
performed the generous deed as we would
have heen glad to publish them. 1t seems
that Mr.. w Fl. Wilson, the Young man who
had his leg fractured in two places while at
work in Henderson and Bakers timber
camp some time last fall, was visited by
number Of men from said camp on Sunday
last, who made him present of a check FOR
S37.55 as an evidence of their sympathy Tor
him in the misfortune which has so long
rendered him incapable of earning living.

"A number of the leading Republicans OF
this place, not wishing to allow Mr. d. II.
Kinkead. late Deputy Sheriff, to take bis de
paTture for Johnstown, whpTe as we have
already SAID, he has secured first class clerk
ship, and for which place he left on Saturday
morning without cOmmemOTatiug the event
in some wav-not because they were re-
jOiced at his epaTtuTe--cOucluded to have
sort Of political love feast on Friday evening
for that purpose. Supper was served at the
Cambria House, and later in the evening
they met at the Office of A. Y. Barker, ESQ,
where and when. after several speeches, hT.
X. was presented with gold pen, box OF
cigars, and several other articles Of lesser
value--all presents from his fellow assOci-
ates. IT is proper 10 add here that Lem.
Davis, Esq, was at the same time and place
made the recipient of a handsome % sword
and sash, his friends not knowing but what
he might need them IN the position TO which
he has recently been called-that of Ser
geant-at Arms Of the Senate at Harrisburg.
If we had been Lem we would have sJCOrd
that we didn't seythe after any accoutre-
meutS of that klnd.
