VISIT FROM IT. —The eastern journals ;
are tUspussinj* the probabilities of a i
visit from the Asiatic cholera during j
the eominff summer, and the corpora- J
lions of the respeetivesea-lioard cities,
•arc taking precautionary measures a-1
•r.unct the prospective attack of this .
deadly enemy to human life. The
quarantine oil' tli ports, is being rigid
ly enforced, with a special regard to
; 1 ■ danger of the introduction of chol- j
fr.t from foreign parts. In view ofj
th fact,-, it becomes our duty to call
■ ic attention of the community to the!
peri! in which our own town would be
p.nced, should the cholera break out in
the east. During the summer season. <
our aoteln are crowded with visitors
f: >:n all parts of the country, and there
i- danger enough that these may bring !
mong us. But the danger is equal
-1; treat that damp cellars, foul out
it i>e-, uuclean undrained
- •" •> and alleys, and other miasmatic j
•'.uise- may produce this disease in our
niiibt. Bedford i> comparatively a
inly town, yet iD cellars and streets
6 '.alleyscan be improved. The bor
" ;gli father- -hould see to thi< matter
" on Kvery cellar should be limed.
Every gutter should be open, so as to
'Jury oif the water and offal. To have
this done and to take general charge
■ r th. sanitary interests of the town,
*■ Borough council should appoint a
nmittee to make weekly examina
tion- of the condition of the streets,
■dieys, A-c., and to report all nuisances
'-v-vdiscover. If a little more atten
-1 were given to such matters, there
■viiuld !*• less dysentery and other dis
ea-s-s of a similar nature. AVe make
- -uggestions with the hope that
r ' only the attention of the Council,
' the interest of the citizens, may be
likened to the importance of some
*■ .un to preserve the health of the
aniunity from unnecessary expo
bire to disease.

ADVICE TO SPORTSMEN.—AS the
' duck sc*ason is now at hand, we doubt
not our sporting friends will be on the
qui rice along the banks of the "Blue
J Juniata." We advise them, one and
| all, not to shoot at any but fice ducks.
I "Don't waste your ammunition on dead
ducks!" As the poet has it:
There i* a golden motto
'that hiirdly needs debating
To guide us. while the tossing Sea
Of Life we're navigating;
Twill prove itself, by use.
To men of each condition ;
And thus it runs : "On Dead Ducks
Don't waste your ammunition."
Should fortune play yon false,
And every comrade leave you.
Why dwell upon the Past ?
W by let the Present grieve you ?
Make stepping stones ot ills.
To gain a proud position ;
Recall the rule ; --On Dead Ducks
Don't waste your ammunition."
W iiat says our noble chief,
The Nation's pride and glory !
Go. hear his lips repe it
The plain aul truihful story.
You've read his latest speech ;
You've seen his frsnk admission;
So, bear in mind : -On Dead Ducks
Don't waste your ammunition."'
On, STRIKE. —The Stump Islands
Oil Company, of Bedford, Pennsylva
ilia, have struck a "fine show" of oil
at the mouth of Ritchey Run, at 7-"><<fcct
depth, dividing stream of Clarion and
Venango counties. The well is now
undergoing the testing process. It i- a
flowing well of beautiful oil of light
gravity. Sometimes the oil is thrown
up with great force more than half the
height of the derrick. None estimate
I it at h-s~ than fifty barrels, with the
probability that it may be the largest
well fm the Allegheny. This company
also own the two islands at the mouth
of the Clarion, which they purpose de

RPO THE HONORABLE JUDGES;

1 county. Pi:
Th<> Grand Jury of Febmary Term. 1866, re
spectfully submit the fullownns: report After a
! careful inspection of the Poor Ibrm-e of the county
; aforesaid. We are of the opinion that the Build
ing in which 'he paupers are kept is iu a very bad
condition and totally unfit tor the purposes for
; which it is intended, because the bouse in addition
to the decay seems to be too small for the eom
! fortable quartering of the paupers and wayfarets
j tbat eontinnal'y crowd it It would doubtless be
beneficial to the poor (as it is essentially nceessa
r* that another house should be provided) and nl
' so to the tax-payers to have a location remote from
the Borough of Bedford and the turnpike. A
! Poor House whether it is to he brick or not. and
not only this, but in consequence of the filthy eon-
I conditon which the bouse always seems to be in. is
a very excellent source for Epidemics which would 1
I spread with great rapidity over this entire com- j
j munity.
| Ail of which is respectfully submitted, this 14th j
dav of February. 1866.

fJM> THE HONORABLE JEDDES
| of the Court of Quarter Sessions of Bedford j
county.-Pa.: .
The Grand Jury at February Term. 1566, re- j
spectfully submits the following report of the Jail j
of the county aforesaid as follows :
The Lochs and Keys in our opinion are insuffi- !
eient for the safe keeping of Prisoners. |
The Rooms also appear to be detrimental to the
health of the prisoners on account of the existence
of an offensive smell; insufficient and dirty Bed
clothing, and torn chaff ticks.
The rear wall of the Jail building on the outside
is being much injured in consequence of the bad
condition of the spouting, the wall receiving wa
ter from the roof, rendering it measurably easy i
for prisoners breaking through and effecting their j
escape t-
It is also noticed that one room is used for smo
king Bacon, rendering it extremely dangerous
from fire.
A coal house is also situated against the wall of
the Jail building in the rear yard, and other rub
hi.-h.
Al' of which is respectfully submitted, this 14tn
day of I'ebruarv, 1866.
