The impure, adulturated oil, containing as it does, gasoline, bemire, or other explo sive elements, will explode when used in lamps,uniess very great care is taken. The best way to avoid ail risks, is to buy the genuine article. The difference in urice be tween the best oil and the impure, is only a few cents per gallon. Wherever a dealer offers to sell coal oil at considerably cheap er rates than those asked by .reliable par ties. it is almost safe to set it down as an adulterated article. Don't buy it, and you will be on the safe side. STYLES AND FASII lONS.—T he latest "agony" in the make-up of a gentleman's wardrobe. according to style, is sada to be blue broadcloth snits, box-toed shoes, and flekh-colored gloves.

A few light-colored overcoats aro seen, but black or dark olive seems to be the favorite color.. Hats have wider brims, more of a curve,and not so tall as last season—" Bob" Fry has them. Neckties are worn of bright colors. The " Eureka Suspenders" are now worn altogether by the fashionable. They can bo had at the cheap dry goods store of I. 0. Bruner, Columbia, Pa., who is the only agent for these suspenders, in this part of the country. They aro a Yankee inven tion and the best ever Introduced.. A COLD WINTER. REMEMBER, TIIE POOR.—Winter is at hand, and it is said it will be an extremely "bard" one; no doubt it will be to some who have but a limited supply of the necessaries' of life. Wages are not so high proportionately us faunily ne cessaries are,utal the poor of course will be the sufferers. Now we believe there is not a render of our paper, iu good circumstances, who does not know of some poor family who would be saved the pangs of hunger and cold during the winter, by the timely donation of rent, fuel, food or money. Let this knowledge exhort those in com fortable circumstances to charity. We may not be able to give a great amount, but by carefully and kindly looking into the af fairs of those whom we know poverty has sorely oppressed, we can give our little at the right time, when it may be of service. There is more poverty and suffering from actual want, than our citizens know any thing about. • And now, as the winter approaches in severity, and this suffering promises to be greater and greater, let every reader of means make it his or her busi ness.to look after some poor family. Those whoie generosity Prompts them to do this, will 'certainly find deserving objects of charity- - ' CIIRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR.

COUNTY ITEMS.--A few days since, whilst Judge David lgewcomer was on a visit in the upper end of the county, and driving through Dillsburg, he was thrown from his buggy, causing a disloca tion of the shoulder. The following gentlemen of York county, are Notaries Public: Daniel .Q. Albright, Hanover ; John Wilson, York ; Philip Miller, Shrewsbury; Daniel Leese, North Codorus ; Robert Wilson, Wrightsville; N. E. Seitz, Glen Rock. The Wrightsville Star says: "A walk along the shore of the river, at this place, would soon convince any one of the activity and extent of the ore business, and the rich ness and greatness of this valuable mineral in York county. Daily, long trains of ears tilled with ore, are brought to this place from different parts of the county, and un loaded on the river bank. Largo quantities are also hauled in wagons, from mines in the vicinity of the town. During the past month five thousand, eight hundred and eight gross tons were transported in cars, which, added to the amount in wagons, makes over six thousand tons for the month of November. CHESTER. COUNTY ITEMs.—The last dodge of distillers for evading the revenue laws,is to ship whisky to market as "milk."

On two acres and a quarter of ground, Joseph Seal, Pennsbury, raised about two hundred bgshels of corn. A rich vein of iron ore has recently been discovered on the farm of .Tames Magraw, hi East, Nottingham township, Chester county, about two miles south of Oxford. The field has been leased lbr ten years, by a company in Berks county. Mr. Magraw granted them the privilege of opening for pits, and two have already been dug, in the second ofw•hich a vein of ore of the best quality has been struck. The West Chester -Record says : "We re gret to learn that the " conditions" upon which the Experimental Farm was located in this county, have not been complied with in full, and that there is great danger of Chester county losing the farm after all. It was supposed that the amount of money to secure the farm here had been actually subscribed, but it seems that such is not the case. COUNTY ITNatS.—On the 6th instant a large frame barn, belonging to Daniel Dan ner, in Manheim, was burned together with a horse, two cows, a steer, hay, grain, and Mrming implements. The well-known Litiz Springs Hotel, owned and kept for many years by Messrs.

The hap py recipients of the badges, for • superior playing, were Stockton and Spiece, of the eystone. and Minich and Sholl, of the Ex celsior, But we think the Committee ought to have prepared more badges, as Torring ton and Briche of the Keystone,and Shreiner, Stauffer and Mooney, of the Excelsior, also distinguished themselves as superior play ers. Henry Carter. of Fulton twp., this county, planted two and a half bushels of Harrison potatoes lastsp.ring, and had therefrom a yield of one hundred and seventeen bushels.

John East Sultzbach, of Marietta, was ar rested fur being concerned with others in the burglaries of Mr.Mehaffey and Du trey's houses in Marietta, on the morning of the 4th inst. The defendant was committed to the lock-up for a further hearing,and whilst there a telegram was received from Hurdle, Lantz, and White. of Williamsport., stating that the above defendant and others ob tained two hundred and fifty dollars from them under the following circumstances : About the 2'2cl ult.. the defendant and others came to Williamsport with a canal beat, (taken from the Tide Witter Canal.t he same having been abandoned us worthless,) and went to said firm and bad the boat loaded with lumber, and then drew two hundred and fifty dollars advance freight on the same. The bout was taken a short distance and then permitted to sink in the canal. The defendant and others then hastened with another boattbr Philadelphia. Whilst the party were at Middletown and Marietta, burglaries were committed. It is positive ly known that some of these persons. in company with this defendant, have been concerned in the robberies named. On Thursday last,Police Officer Lreisley,of Wit • liamsport, took the defendant to that place for trial. The officer arrived at Landis ville at noon on Thursday, having missed the Reading train ho walked from that place to Columbia, through the snow storm. Lie is a plucky fellow, and no doubt makes a good officer. He is a son of Daniel Heisley, of this place. Bartel Weitzel was arrested for malting threats to injure his frctu. It seems that a few months ago the defendant married Margaret Plumb,—the parties having seen each other but once or twice—and of course had no opportunity to judge whether their dispositions were or a congenial nature. They did not wait for the honey-moon to pass by, but commenced quarreling—and did so daily. The defendant left the corn plainantseveral times,' with the intention of staying away, but returned again with the expectation of renewing his love, but Margaret refused .to come, to terms,. and took the bed cover off`of Bartel, when he locked her out of the room; and that is the " way the fuss began."
