The Rebuilding of JohnstoWn,

JoHNsTowN, PENN, September 16.-
That Johns own will rise again there
seems to be no doubt. The enormous
task of restoring the Pennsylvania Rail
road tracks from South Fork to the
famous stone bridge continues day and
night. With all possible energy the
Cambria Iron Company is operating
those departments of its works which
escaped ruin. Its army of employees is
busy and hundreds Of men are engaged
in rebuilding the structures demolished
or damaged. Planning mills, gas works,
electric light works, and other minor in
dustrial establishments are being put in
working order. Stores have been re-
opened, and although the merchants are
only in temporary buildings they have
a good stock on hand and find an ample
demand for their wares. There have
been at least 1 900 places of habltatlon
erected during the last three months.
Of course the majority of them are
only temporary structures, but they an

buildings, however, are we'll under way

A BRAVE LITTLE WIFE.
She and Her Husband Haven't Any
Money, but They Have Pluck.


New YORK. September 1S.-A mild
eyed little Austrian and his gypsy-faced
wife, who was s.t;ired somewhat prls-
matically, were called before the En-i-
grafton Commissioners yesterday to give
an account of themselves. They arrived
from Hamburg yesterday without q cent
to start life with in the new world. But
the little man had trade (glazing) and
what was more important, very ener-
getic partner.
what are you going to do if we let
You in?" asked President Ridgway.
''Work at my trade" said the glazier
through Interpreter Silverstein.
Suppose you can't find work, what
then?'
The glaciers mild eyes assumed a
puzzled expression, and he turned ap-
pealingIy to his bright-eyed wife. She
became voluble right away.
':Oh," she said, she will get work. |
will help him to find it. And if he
doesn't get it, l will. am a seamstresS.
Never fear. we will lind work.
''But suppose neither of you should
find work, how are you going to get
along"
God will help us, then
"But," said Commissioner Nylie,
laughingly, "He has no Office here .
All" said the woman, with trl-
umphant smile, ''He is everywhere.
''You couldn't prevent that woman
from getting along" President Ridgway
remarked, admiringly.
The Commissioners decided to post
pone decision on the case of the glazer
and his confident helpmeet until the
Austrian Consul sees them.

Across the field as we idly strolled,
In the cloud'ess summer day,
Inc winds were waiting the rare perfume
From the meadows OF new mowr hay,
And our hearts We're still as our lips kept
time
To our steps on that pleasant day.
And down where the brook like wayward
child
Rushes on DER the pebbly floor,
And sprinkles the rocks with its diamond
spray,
And ripples along the shore,
We stopped at the crossing; gave him my
band.
And trustinely followed him DER.
And when, in the twilight, We came sgajn,
Our lips for the once were still,
And he held my h.nd as we crossed the
stream,
And hardly against my will;
For gave ny heart where gave my hand,
At the foot of the noisy ill.
And when in the shade of the vineciad porch
We parted, it seemed to me
The stars were twinkiipg in rare delight,
Though Pm sure no eye could see
If the 81 OF on my cheek had crimson blush,
And my heart an eStacy.

PEANUTS AS MEDICINE.
The Time Honored Goober Said to Pos
sess Rare Curative Powers.


The taste for the toothsome peanut is
a healthy one and the nut is coming into
favor on account of its virtues, aside
from its edible qualities. Of late years
it is boldly claimed for the peanut that
it has rare curative powers in certain
diseases now becoming frequent, espe-
cially among brain workers and high
living people-insomnia with the first
class and dyspepsia with the others.
A correspondent of Boston news
paper vouches for the fact that he had a
very bad case of dyspepsia, accompa-
MED by insomnia-that he had gone
seventy-two hours without sleep. was
badly wrecked physically and went to
eating peanuts, and, aftera short course
of this treatment, came out of it a per-
fectly healthy, hearty man, able to sleep
soundly under any and all circum-
stances.
In view of the revival of the peanut
on its merits it should no longer be
classed as an article useful only as an
aid in passing time at a dull circus. The
peanut, goober or groundnut, as it is
variously called, is taking 4 place in the
dispensary.
The day may not be far distant when
the physician will prescribe a pint of
peanuts and an hours practice on chew
ing gum.

The Notorious Adventures Sentenced to
Two Years in States Prison.
NAYS LANDING, n. j., September 19.-
Court did not open this morning for the
continuation of the trial of Mrs Eva
Hamilton for atroci"us assault upon
Nurse Mary Donnelly until 10:40 O'Clock.
The delay was caused by the detention,
through an accident to another train
from Atlantic City upon Which were the
Judges, attorneys and others officially
connected with the case.
When the jurors had taken their seats,
Judge Reed said: ''Sheriff, bring in the
defendant :"
The Sheriff stated that the defendant,
Mrs. Hamilton, begged to be excused
from appearing, on account of serious
illness, and the Judge allowed the case
to proceed:
Then Captain Perry, counsel for the
defense, began his argument. He said
he hoped the jury would frame their
verdict according to the testimony, in
dependent Of newspaper reports or other
influences. He closely reviewed the cir
cumstances which led up to the assault,
a:4d argued that the testimony showed
clearly that Mary Ann Donnelly, the
nurse, was the first aggressor, and that
she forced Mrs. Hamilton to pick up the
knife in self-defenSe. She had threat.
eneG to kill her mistress: she was hot
tempered and fronzied with brandy, and
she asSaied Mrs. Hamilton with murder
ous intent.

jury, after being out az hour and "a

verdict of guilty as indicted" (of afro

Mrs. Hamilton was led into the court
room by the Sheriff, and when the fore

tears to almost every eye in the court
room. She was sentenced to two years

SARAH ALTHEA.
Still a Handsome Woman, Tremendously
Clever and Very Fascinating.

Californians say that Sarah Althea
Hill has not yet finished all the mischief
she is capable of. She is still a hand
some woman, despite her years and the
reckless manner in which she has given
herself up to her passions, and even yet
she has a marvellous attraction for
certain sort of man. Old Sharon Was
her dupe and Terry was completely
under her thumb and they are only the
most conspicuous among Il long process
sion of men who have found her at
tractive and dangerous. She has tre-
mendous courage and vitality, and,
while very passionate, can be as cool
and sharp as steel when she is playing
game with circumstances. She comes
of good family "a family that had no
money, however-and her passion
for intrigue, excitement and adven-
ture has induced her to break with
all the traditions of her station, and has,
by the way, succeeded in keeping her
pockets filed in one way or another ever
since she began her career. She is about
5 feet in height, extremely well made,
and is still graceful, 1.-the and slender.
She has pale, olive countenance with
delicate features and pair of starry
brown eyes, and her thick, wavy, brown
hair has never been cut in bang, but
is brushed loosely back and ripples
around her brow and ears. Her eye
brows are very black and arched, and
her lids white and dropping, but her
mouth shows the result of the life she
has led, and has grown coarse and hard.
However the rest of the face may es-
cape the lines plowed by passions, the
mouth always reveals what the life has
been, and hers is not a pleasant or a
Trustworthy mouth. She is tremendously
clever, and no man who talked to her
half an hour could believe anything
against her unless he had previously
steeled his heart against her plausible
manner.

STILL SEEKING BLOOD.

Efforts Being Made to Prevent It.

Huff and Patterson May Fight, but
Efforts Being Made to Prevent It.
MACON, Ga, September 1G.- have
had long hunt over the State to catch
up with the Legislative Huff Patterson
duel. Huff was at his home here this
morning away from the Legislature,
and Patterson spent the forenoon in the
Atlanta Assembly.
The fight is still on hot and heavy, but
the most influential men in Blob County,
including a prominent minister OF the
gospel, DR.. E. W. Warren, have taken
the matter sternly, and before daylight
one or the other course must be reached.
The seconds are not recognized. The
committee of twenty-five drew up a
communication addressed to both the
duelists asking that a conference be bad.
Huff consented, but declined to commit
himself to anything. Patterson has
just arrived from Atlanta and 4 final
effort is being made to settle the dilli-
Guilty. The committee are with him.
Agree to Submit Their Differences to
Arbitration.
MACON, Ca, September 1.-THE
peace committee of twenty-one, ap-
pointed at the public meeting yesterday
for the purpose of effecting an amicablc
settlement of the Huff Patterson matter,
met Messrs. Huff and Patterson again
this morning at separate conferences.
Messrs. Huff and Patterson finally
agreed to submit their differences to the
committee for settlement, and each
made a written agreement to be bound
by the decision of the committee, and
that the one on whom the blame is put
for the trouble Will have to retract or
make amends honorable to the other one.
The joint committee Of merchants,
lawyers, and commercial men generally,
agreed that the three preachers OF the
committee shall be constituted sub
committee, who shall make thorough
investigation of the entire matter from
the beginning; shall examine all papers,
evidence, etc., in order to arrive at the
truth of the affair, and find on whom
the fault should rest. This sub-com-
mittee is composed Of Rev. E. W. War
rem, pastor of the First Baptist Church;
Rev. 7. R. Kendall, pastor Of the Null
berry Street Methodist Church, ,iand Rev.
W. B. Jennings, pastor OF the First
Presbyterian Church. They will no
doubt consume several days in the III.
vestigation.
The people of Macon are delighted
that the matter is nearing adjustment
without bloodshed, and that it. will be
settled ,honorably and satisfactorily to
both gentlemen.

The South's Opportunity.

The present year will be memorable
for its blessings to the farmers. The
South has produced the largest crops Of
vegetables, fruits, hay, forage and grain
that have ever been known. Unless
there is some general misfortune to be-
fall the cotton crop, the present will
be the largest ever produced. In ali the
history of the South, the abundance and
money value of its agricultural produc-
tions have not been equalled.
With the start given to the farmers
by the proceeds of this years crops.
they ought to be in position to be in
dependent. They will become so, if
they will only resolve to live at home by
raising their own provisions for the sup
port and maintenance Of the household
and farm.
The weld of corn has been so prolific
in the South that there never was a
more opportune time for the farmers to
raise their own meat. With cotton
crop of money value this year of
from $3.50, 900 to s4O0,00O,OOO, the
South will never be in a better condition
to pull itself out of the thraldom of
debt and dependence. In the greatest
money producing crop Of the world, the
South stands practically without a sue
cessful competitor. God so made our
soil and climate as to make it the home
of the cotton plant which yields its
snowy staple in such excellence and
abundance as to be nowhere else
equalled. With food crops in quantity
sufficient for domestic consumption, the
South would be the garden spot of the
Union and our people the most inde-
pendent and prosperous in the world.
= = The Confederate government enacted
a law to restrict the production of cot
ton. If the Farmers Alliance, which
has already accomplished so much in
its fight with the jnte trust, would insist
that the farmers and planters of the
South shall raise corn and meat enough
for their sustenance, the South will be
independent and prosperous.
Let the Farmers Alliance do this and
the great battle against trusts and
monopolies will have been fought and
won.-Augosta Chron Gle.

Alteration.

Let us not pray as to some distant God;
Always imp!oring palms We stretch toward
heaven,
AS though we drew the conservation down,
And miss the sacred wells that gush hard by,
So men mistakenly look up for dew,
The while its blessed mist imbathes their
feet.
Therefore, if any radiant message come
To make existence gentle and sublime:
If Spring airs glad thee, if the sunset bring
Into thine eyes the tears of solemn JOY;
If the fine wandering odor OF flower,
The lamenation of the twilight waves,
Full breasted warblc of the birds of dawn,
The liquid chant of cuckoo floating smooth !;
Through the bright solitudes Of leafy May.
The first sight of the wonder OF the peaks
HAT on The wide, far-off horizon lift
Their pallid ridges Of unearthly snow;
If the caresSing clasp of tender hands,
The undyipg charm Of pure woman's love,
The smile of comfort in in< piring eyes;
If infinite chords from the deep world OF
sound,
EXhilaration bloom and fire of song,
An angel from the pity Of tale,
The lofty sadness of evanish'd hope,
The lingering pathos of an early dream,
Regrets and doubt. the hunger Of desire,
lmpasslond abnegations rcX'd and vain.
The anguish Of life's evermore Too Late
If these 1hirgs move thee, know that thou
hast touched
The hem Of the holy garment OF the Lord,
And art not from the heavenly kingdom far,

Gus attention; and he quickly turned
back to the reading every time. In this
way he read paragraphs and even pages
of NaSby, until finally dispatch was
brought in of more important nature,
and he laid the pamphlet down to at
tend to it.
While he was thus engaged MIR.
Stanton motioned to ME to come with
him into General Eckert's room, and
when the door was shut he broke out in
fury: God damn it to hell, said he.
Was there ever such nonsense? Was
there ever such inability to appreciate
what is going on in an awful crisis:
Here is the fate Of this whole Republic
at stake. and here is the man around
whom it all centres, on whom it all de-
pends, turning aside from this moment
Gus, this incompatible issue, to read the
God damned trash Of a silly mounte
bank.
This fiery speech of the enraged
Secretary was interrupted by General
Eckert, who had another telegram which
he showed to him, and with which we
all went back INTO MIR. Slanton'S own
office, in order that the President might
see it.
Hardly had he began to read it, how
ever, when new occasion of irritation
arose The messenger brought in d
card and handed it TO the President.
who S;ld at once, as he passed the card
over to the Secretary Show him in
Stanton read it and turning to me, eN
claimed in low voice: God in heaven,
it is Whitelaw Reldr understood the
point of this explosion at once. Mr..
Reid, VINO was then the correspondent
of the Cincinnati Gazette and d great
friend of Secretary Chase in Washing
ton. was not liked by the Secretary of
War. This dislike had gone so far that
the doorkeeperS at the Var Department
had received directions that Mr.
Reid was not to be admitted. But
when he sent his card in to the
President they could not refuse it. Mr..
Reid came in and was greeted by Mr..
Lincoln, but not by the Secretary. His
purpose was merely to obtain from
headquarters aud from the highest
authority the assurance that the
election had certainly gone in favor
of Lincoln; and after expressions of
thanks and congratulations he with
drew. Just then Judge David c. Car
ter came in with two or three other gen
tlemen, among them Mr.. Fox of the
Navy Department, and the reading of
Petroleum V. Nasby from the Con-
federate Cross Roads was not resumed.
These incidents of memorable his
torical event are not recorded in any
annals of the time that | have seen; and
yet they appear to me interesting and
characteristic enough not to be forgot
ten.
