TERMS OF SCBSOHIPTIOH. TWO DOLLARS PER AHSCM. LOCAL AFFAIRS. Accidents. —Mr. Wm. Barr of Kishaeo quilias Valley made a narrow escape or Thursday last, at the crossing of the Mif flin and Centre Railroad at Rind's mill. He had been to town with a spring wag on, on which a stove and some other arti cles had been loudened, and supposing he could make the crossing before the cars reached it lie diove on, but from some cause his horses almost stopped on the track, and the locomotive struck tlie wag jn, breaking it and most of its contents, throwing out Mr. B. with considerable violence. He was cut about the head and face, but escaped with much less injury than was at first feared. It cannot be too strongly impressed upon all persons driv ing horses that it is extremely dangerous to attempt crossing a railroad track when a train is under full headway, even if it should he four or five hundred yards off'. This can be best demonstrated by remern- Ixring that a train running 20 miles an hour makes a mile in three minutes, half a mile in a minute and a half, or four hun dred and forty yards in forty-five seconds. Robbery.— The auction house of G. W. Albright, in West Market street, was en tered on Wednesday night last hy boring the shutter and then pushing back the bolt, and two revolvers taken out of a case. An iiich-and-three-quarter auger was used. The one was a Colt Revolver which had been used, the other a new large Remington Navy Revolver, shoot ing 30 to the pound, with a double mould, one easting a round the other a Minnie ball. A dozen of fixed ammunition and a box of eaps for this pistol were also ta ken. As there is probably 110 other Rem ington Navy Revolver of this size in this part of the State, we request information, should such a pistol have been or be offer ed for saie or seen in the hands of any person, be- given to the editors of the Ga zette, who are the owners of said pistol. The Colt Revolver was the property of J. Stewart McEweu. Church Improvement. —The official board of the Methodist Episcopal Church of this place we learn last week determined to alter the present building according to a plan submitted by Rev. Mr. Monroe, by which it will be extended 23 feet, the front improved, and the interior remodeled, so that there will he an excellent Sabbath S.-hool 100 m, a line lecture room, and an audience chamber on the second floor am ply sufficient to accommodate the congre gation and general visitors. Class rooms are also to he added. The cost will prob ably be from s4oootos6ooo. An improve ment has long been contemplated, anc we are pleased to note that there is at la.-l spirit and enterprise enough to undertake it. >t. Marks Episcopal Church has its new stone front up, and the carpenter's are now busy at the bell tower and interior. Fish Dams. —We notice several Fish Pains in the river between this place and Newport which, according to the decis ion of Judge Pearson ot Harrisburg are illegal and the owners liuhle to prosecu tion. There are some in this county, .some in Juniata, and others in Perry; and while but little objection can be urged against catching eels in the full by this means, yet it is a well known fact thai large numbers of young shad and salmon, as well as other fish, are annually de stroyed in such basket". It is all idle to talk about restocking our rivers with fish unless means are taken to preserve them, and we hope the Court at its next term will specially instruct constables, super visor-,, Ac., as to their duty in such cases. The fifth meeting of the County Musical Association held at Strode's church, on Thursday last, was not so well attended in the afternoon, but the evening —ion gathered quite a number from tin -urrounding neighborhood. The musk Was not so good, there being few singers p • -! nt. a number were there from this place, some of whom met with the unfortunate circumstance known as a "break-down," but as none were hurt, all enjoyed it. The next session will be held at Newton Hamilton, 011 the 2d Thursday of November. A. L. S.—The Re-opening of the Ap pren-jct-s' Literary Society will take place 011 Saturday evening next, in their Hall. 1 he exercises will consist of Essays, Pec limatioiis. Readings, Ac., and music hy the Mendelssohn Association. We hope our citizens will show their appreciation of this organization by a good turn out on this occasion; and that our young men will this winter avail themselves of the advantage's resulting from an attendance upon it" regular sessions. It is certainly pnverful lever for good, if properly laid bold of. All arc invited to IK- present.- A Freak of Insanity. —The Miffiintown bentiiud gives the follow'ng particulars of a:i attempt at suicide at Manayunk bridge: On si tt up lay evening, 25th September. a> the Cincinnati Express train east pass the Manayunk bridge, an unknown ") in was observed divesting himself of hat, watch, Ac., and placing iiis hands on "• 1.i.-ks of two seats, sprang out of the Wiii-iow, feet foremost, taking the sash % itb him. The train was immediately k '"l|k--1. and on going back, he was found •aiking toward the jiersons in search of i'u. As soon as he saw them he feli up ' 1 bis knees and commenced praying for l! '" r cy. ]£e W as placed on the train and r "iL-bt to the Patterson House, and his '• "in properly eared for. He has a cut ' 'he chin and is considerably bruised, - 't is a miracle that he was not instunt -1 ilied. He is a Frenchman by birth, a Was on his way from the west to Phil a '"lpliia. He had been lal>oring under • l " attack of delirium tremens, and no '-oubt jumped from the train to escajie tlie 1"' --Uicc of those dreadful phantoms seen by persons in his situation. This is an other warning to those who make too fre quent use of intoxicating drinks. MeKee's tannery on Water street we learn bag been disposed of to Messrs. Bpanogle <fc Co. for S3OOO. Among the first "democratic" voters yesterday morning was a man so drunk that Third street was not wide enough for him.' It is said the engineers of the Middle creek Railroad have been examining the | Susquehanna river at Selinsgrove for a suitable site for a railroad bridge. On Monday iast, I). Grove received a fine lot of large mess had and Mackerel; I also, Groceries, Cheese, Hams, Sides, etc. Give him a call and see for yourselves— you cannot help but be pleased. An attempt was made last week to set fire to Hamaker A Montgomery's carriage i manufactory, by placing combustible mat-: ter among the paints and oil and pouring | coal oil on the floor. The latter was set 1 on fire, but fortunately did no injury be yond burning a hole in the floor. After threatening rain for several days the clouds finally yielded a copious show er oil Friday night and Saturday morning, which gave the recently sown grain a fine start. 1 lie weather, however, is again j pleasant, with cool, frosty mornings. Professor Clark opened his Singing; School on Saturday evening at the Town ; Hall with a fair attendance of principally young ladies. Such schools ought to be encouraged by parents, for while they are; agreeable associations and singing a use ful accomplishment, they have a tenden-1 oy to improve both the minds and morals' of the young. The tracklayers are at work between j Reedsville and Milroy, and the cars will run to the latter place on or before the Ist! of November. This is another step to-1 ward the Snow Shoe region, and if Cen- i tre county now wakes up, a few years j will give its eoal, lumber, iron ami pro- j duce generally the nearest and most di- 1 rect route to market. The l r . S. officials have taken possession of what is known as the Locke's Mills distillery, with all tlie real estate pertain ing thereto, on the charge of having de frauded the government of revenue tax to a large amount. There is something in explicable in tliis transaction which we must confess wc are unable to understand, as it is well known that the owners have been at different times during the past six months borrowers of considerable sums of money, and even hypothecated whis ky. It may be unraveled according to law, but unless the officers know a good deal more than outsiders, appearances are not in their favor.

FORT RILEY, Kansas, Oct. 5. —A dis patch from Junction City states that thir ty thousand head of cattle from Texas and New .Mexico, bound for the E:istern markets, are now at Abclene, ou the Union Pacific Railway, Eastern Division, 105 miles from the State line. Buyers are reported scarce. This trade in Mexican cattle towards the United Btates is a new thing on this railroad, and the suddenness with which it has sprung up into such magnitude is remarkable. " THE ELECTION. Tlie State in Doulit. Bribery, Whisky, and the Pa. B. R. Again Triumphant in this County. The election yesterday was a repetition I of tiie disgraceful scenes of last year.— Bribery again stalked abroad undisguised, and things in the shape of men fawned! around the bankers like a set of hounds i with labeled collars. The Pennsylvania Railroad in Granville townsliipalsocamei to the rescue, and in a district where the' resident vote could not command 40, gave 100! We would by all means recommend the Directors of that road to amend their resolution respecting interference in elec tions, so as to read that republicans arc not to interfere under pain of dismissal,' but give all good copperheads an indis-! putable right to colonize Mitliin anil Ju- i niatu counties whenever they see proper. 1 The greatest effort was made in favor of' Mclntyre, the railroad candidate, and was openly offered to vote for him alone! A special effort was also made against Col. llpbison and Capt. Wilson, two sol diers on our ticket, they having been guilty of helping to whip the rebels—a i sin copperheads never forgive. And all j this pandering to depravity and self-abase ment, subjecting our elections to the pow er of bribery, corruption, ignorance and i drunken stupidity, is called DEMOCRACY. ! COUNTY RETURNS.

By looking o*i r our list you can see that we have all the latest and | choicest stoves of the day. The latest and first Cookstove re bring to your notice is RBOUIAEC?., Extra heavy a- d large. The oven in num* ■ her 7 is as large as number 8 of any other i stove, and it has no projection or low placo in tbo front part of oven: it has also a retol | ving top, by which means you can move . your pots or boiler off or over the fire with tout lilting them, and thereby prevent the es cape of either gas or smoke in tl.e room. | But the greatest stove of the day, on acs j count of the many "conveniences, is James ! Spear's I ANTI-DF3T, GAS BURNER * Cooking Stove, ; which is preferred even before a range. You | can have, by the hot water attachment, hot laud cold water up stairs; it also separates the ! unhurnt coal from the ashes without dust or I lirt in the house; the centre plates are all double, with the air passing through them; it is a perfect baker, and a tip-top stove in eve ry respect. Our next Cook is the REGULATOR, plain top, with feeder front. 'lhis is the same as the other except the top. And last, but not least, is the COMBINATION COOK, a stove that we have been selling fir six years, and the sale of thein is increasing ev ! ery day. 'Tis a stove we put against the ! world for baking purposes; it takes but little j fuel, and is a plain, substantial stove, i m FAiiiuii ! Aimost everybody has heard of Jas. Spear's ANTI-DUST, GAS-BURNER, PAR LOR STOVES. ; For beauty, economy, and durability they stand second to none, and for cleanliness there is none to equal them; they only need to be seen to be appreciated We have also Spear's Anti Du6t I'urlor EGG STOVE, just ' new, and pretty. And we have the stoves that we suppose ; are going to set the world on fire, —the Morning G-lcry, Be ORIENTAL, AND TIIE ORIENTAL IIEATER 'j Our stock of STORE and OFFICE STOVES , is complete—new pattern, wood, etc., —and . i in order that everybody can have a stove, we are now manufacturing out of genuine Rus "jsia Iron a new PARLOR GAS BURNER stove, called the BON TON; and to nil those | who wish to heat an upper and lower room with one stove, I would say, call turd see J. | IRVIN WALLIS'S Parlor Heater. I have now improved and completed my Parlor Heater. With this stove you can per ! fectlv heat up and down stairs at will, and j their cost is not one third tbat of any other , Heater. There is no mistake about it. and 1 | ask no pay until you are perfectly satisfied it ' j will do as represented. And since lam de i termined to render satisfaction to all my cus | turners, I have brought from Philadelphia j one of the best mechanics ir tke country, and we intend this season to give special atten tion to furnishing off and potting up all our j stoves. We have been compelled, in order to supply the increasing demand for our stoves, I to Jea.se another building, on Brown street, j in which we have a large- stock of STOVES. P. S. We will receive in a few days a j large stock of Housefurnishing Goods, At the Big Cotfee Pot Sign. Lewistown, Sept 25, 1867 Experience Proves thor 3 are only Two VALUABLE Machine Stitches: '/us mm 4 mm ELASTIC STITCH AND THE SHUTTLE OR LOCK STITCII, THE Grovr 4 Baker Elastic-fltiteh Sewing Machines are superior to all others for the follow mg reasons: 1. They sew tlireet from the spool-, and require no rewinding of thread. 2. They are more easily understood and used, and less liable to derangement than other machines. 3. They are capable of executing perfectly- w about change of adjustment, a much greater variety oi work i than other machines. 4. The stitch made tiy these machines is much more fmn, elastic, and durable, especially upon articles I which require to he washed and ironed, than any . other stitoh. 5. This stitch, owing to the manner in which the under thread is inwrought, is much the most plump and lieautitu! in use, and retains this plumpness sad beauty even upon articles frequent.y wu-hed '-"4 ironed until they are worn out. 6. The structure of the seam is such that though it be cut or broken at intervals of only a fv.v stitches it will neither open, run, or ravel, but remains firm and durable. 7. I lllike other machines, these fasten bothcudsof the scam bv their own operation. 8. With these machines, nbit silk is used upon the right or face side of the eam, eotton may la* used upon ihe other side without lessening ih- strength or durability of the seam. This can be done on another machine, and is a great sating upon all articles stitch ed or made up with silk. 9. These machines, in addition to their superior merits as instruments for sewing, by a change of ad justment. easily learned and practiced, execute tho most beautiful and perinaueut embroidery and orna mental work.
