The bidding for the money, every month, is quite
Spirited. The Association Is In ft most flourishing
Condition, considering the short time it baa been in
existence, which is to be attributed, in a great mea
sure, to the exoellent manner In whioh its) affairs
have been managed by the officers. ' Onr oltlteaa

tending Its meetings and acquainting themselves
with Its workings, and they should also give overy

The Late Arrests. Our Borough Council, at
a special meeting held on Wednesday night of lait
week, voted Wm. C. Smith and James Melloy, the
two dctsctives who caused the arrest of several bur
glars in this place last week, one hundred dollars,
as a part compensation for their service. In case
the parties arc convicted the detectives will be fur
ther remunerated by the Borough. It is but just
that they should bo well paid for ferreting out and
arresting the organized band of burglars and thieves
who hare hitherto infested our Borough. Our oiti
sens certainly cannot object to paying so small a
rum for the great amount of good that will result
from the arrest and oonviotion of the rascals.
A New Fire Cohpaxv. A new fire company
has recently been organized in Sunbury, which ia

will soon bo erected by the company in which to
keep their engine. These young men are entitled
to a great deal of credit for their efforts to revive
tho fire department of this placo.

Another Railroad Accident at Milton.
Mr. William Reed, nn cmployeeof the Thila. A Erie
R. R. Co., was instantly killed at the lower depot,
In Milton, on Saturday, 21st ult While watching
a passing train on the P. A E. road be stepped on
the Catawiasa track, and an engine backing np on
the latter track struck him, knocking him down,
running over him and killing him almost instantly.
Mr. Reed was an industrious man and good citizen,
and leaves ft wife and several small children to
mourn his loaf.
TrtE mountain on the north side of this borough
was set on fire by some boys on Tuesday afternoon,
near the Ceutral Sohool House, and the wind being
fresh at the time, the flames spread with great ra
pidity, threatening serious damage, and enveloping
tho town in smoke. By considerable exertion on
the part of ft number of persons engaged in combat
ting tho destructive element, it was prevented from
reaching the town or doing any serious damage, and
by evening its further spread was arrested. Sj a -molin
Herald.
A Fatal Sror. Tho junction of the P. A E.
and Catawissa Railroads, at this place, appears to
be a very unfortunate spot fur railroad men. The
numbers that are killed and wounded there every
year make a frightful catalogue of accidents for one
looality. We presume, however, that our oft re
peated caution to "be careful" will be of no avail.
It would seem that we should learn wisdom from
the sad experience of others. Miltvnian.
Important to Bankrupts. After the first of
June next every applicant for the benefit of tbo
Bankrupt aot must show that he has property suffi
cient to pay fifty cents on the dollar, or that he has
obtained a release from enough of his creditors to
pay fifty cents on the dollar to the remainder. All
who expect to apply for certificates of bankruptcy,
ithoot property sufficient to comply with the above
condition, should hurry np or they will be counted
out.
The West Branch Canal was injured to a much
greater extent, by tbe late freshet, than was at first
supposed. There are three or tour breaches bolow
tbe Muncy dam which will require several week
yet to repair. There are also several breaches be
tween that place and Williamsport. It is not pro
bable that the canal will be ready fur the passage of
boats much before the latter part of April.
Accident at a Coal Breaker. On Saturday
last, while Jacob Rumbergcr was running some
loaded drift cars to the Bear Valley breaker, near
Shamokin, he was thrown upon the track ia front of
the cars by hie foot catching in one of the wheels.
Several of the ears passed over him, but be escaped

known that it is justly regarded in many countries
as a medicine of indispensable necessity, Ia Uront
Britaiu, France and Germany, wlioro mediunl sci
ence has reached its highest perfection, it is pre
scribed in domestic practice, and constantly used
in the armies, in hospitals and other public institu
tions, where it is regarded by tho attending physi
cians as the most speedy and agreeable remedy that
can be employed. Scarcely any neighborhood can
he found where well known cacs of diseased lungs,
which had bullied the effort." of the most skillful and
experienced doctors, hnve been permanently cured
by it. Those results arc tho mnxt convincing proofs
of tho superior curative properties of this prepara

satisfaction. Whilo it is most powerful against con
tinued diseases, it is oxtreinuly eeullo as a medicine
in infancy and youth, being ijiiiie harmless to oven
the youngest, when administered judiciously.
This health-restorer accomplishes even mora by
prevention than cure. If taken in reason it heals
all irritations of the throat and lungs, whether ari

thus prevents that long train of painful and iucurable
diseases which would arise from the neglect of thetu.
