Appoint*!- —The Director* ofthe Poor met
on Tuesday last and made the following ap
pointments :
Physician, Dr. KC. Reamer.
Steward, iliiam I.eary,
Treasurer, George VV. Blymire.
So far as we have heard, these appointments
o-ive great satisfaction, the appointees being all
well qualified to discharge the duties pertaining
lo the several offices which they have been se ;
lecled to fill. Dr. Reamer. is well known as a i
skillful and attentive physician, and his ap-|
pointment cannot fail to elicit the approbation!
of all who are acquaint .] with him. Mn. '
Learv we have always heard spoken of as a man j
of crood character, ot sober, indutrious baiiits, i
and we have not the hast doubt that he will '
make a model Steward. Mu. Biamikc, the I ir- j
mer careful au<i efikb nt Treasure!. has been re- j
lained in office, as he should have been, being a |
man ol strict and unimpeachable honesty—and I
swh a one as the people need in the capacity'
which he Si Is. His re-appointment will give I
entire satisfaction to everybody, unless it be a
few narrow minded bigots who cannot forgive;
him because he acted like a man and did what !
they hat e not the courage to do.
i
More Imr-ron-ments. —The large brick build- j
ing about being erected hy Co!. E. E. Anderson I
immediately in ft out of our office, is going up ,
6sl. When completed, it will he a great ad- [
ditionto the part of the town in which it is j
located. It will, also, be a barrier to theStoru s j
that come charging down the valley on the j
"North of it an I make our window shutters rat- j
tleand clang and "ye ediloi to shiver and
shake, and, therefore, we hope it may be finished j
ere the "surly blasts" of Winter howl around j
us in their fury.
Ma. \Vh.lu m Hartley has, also, erected an j
elegant iron verandah before his dwelling house,
which adds materially to the beauty of the j
building.
viiii' Da y. —The citizens of our hor- ;
OUgh observed Thanksgiving day with a general j
suspension of buismss- and by attending public j
worship in the different churches in which
services were held on that day. Sermons were ;
preached bv Revs. Sample and Spottswood: bv j
the former in the German Reformed Church and j
bv the latter in the Lutheran.
Sworn In. —On Tuesday afteruon, M.u.
Samvi.i, H. Ta ie, the new Prothonotarv, .Xc.,
ot Bedford county, took the oath of offic, and
began his official career. The Major will make j
a good Prothonotarv—as good a prothonotarv as j
he is a "good fellow," and that by the way, is J
saying a "good deal." We hope the office may j
prove to hnn one of profit, as u ell as of plea- !
sure.

THE LAST NOTICE.
I am in earnest in saying that I want to settle
-with all the old friends and patrons oft he
far 4 Gazette: in town as well as in the country.
Many have manfully responded to my former
notice, a-nd I have faith to believe that all will
m a short time. As money is scarce, I will
give %ny reasonobie indulgence to those who
desire provided they settle at once. I will
attend in person at the office of Heniv Nicode
tnus, for a short time yet, probably until
the Ist of January, alter which I w ill place all
unsettled accounts in the hands of Esquire Nico
demus for collection, without respect to persons
—and I mean just what I say.

greatest misery: mv face was almost iuii-tantly run

near two month-, without the least b-nefit, 1 was in.
dured to make a trial of Lindsey's Blood Searcher,
and the result was that'in using one bottle and a hall
i found a perfect cure, i may aiso-ay that I eagerly i
CrifU \MtUiC\ti was iri'ummfndpcl a cure.—
S-ich was my wretciiediie - that ! even matted to I
the dangerous experiment of pouring pare Creosote
on my lace and neck, hut ali to no purpose—the
Blood S. uicher was the lir.-t anu onlv th. g that did
me any good. As a blood, purifier it is u: quailed; &:
