It will be one of the j 4 stupendous phenomena which it j Go the lot of man to witness. In j ■ ler that our readers may form some J aof its sublimity, we append a de- j .-prion of a similar exhibition during \)vember, 1866. on this occasion from two o'clock j ! broad daylight, the skv being per- 1 ;v serene and cloudless, the whole ■von - were lighted with a magnifi- , stand imposing display of celestial ; - works. Arago computes that no j - than 240,00(1 meteors were visible j ve the horizon of Boston on the j • .truing of the 16th of November, j . .. The display was seen all over j \.jth America. A similar display! - seen by Humboldt, at Cumana, I - ;:h America, in 1790. The com par- j .of the epochs of appearances of j . ... great showers has led to the dis- TV that they are periodical, their | -.'urns being separated from each oth- [ !, rby the third part of a century, or j multiple of this period, and are peri- j al appearances of one grand mete- ! -hower. Professor Newton, of j v College, who has devoted much j u - to the investigation of the period- \ character of these showers, rinds | j at the next return of this flight will n the night of the 16th or 14th of \ veniber. \Y( >x DERFU I- VA R R ETY.—Every ly should visit the Hardware Store Hartley and Metzg(tr to see the as- j - ing collection of goods therein alayed. It would more than fill our | unns to name each article. Such a i of useful ornamental and elegant j luctsof and ingenuity was nev- ! : fore seen in Bedford. It is almost .to a "Mechanics Fair."

There, too, is a i "or of oil lamps, beautiful shades, I speaking of lamps) their brand of ! Oil is really very superior and j iv> the same. ( )ur citizens and the j lie generally should not fail to visit j tley 4 Metzger's store as it is eer lv a credit to the town. Their 'as are "cheap for cash."

THE ADDITIONAL BOUNTY,—In ra ses where the additional bounty, pro vided by the act of July 28th, 1866, is claimed by the widow ofa deceased sol dier she having remarried, it has been decided by the Second Comptroller of the Treasury, that if the remarriage took place before the passage of the act, she is not entitled to receive it. If remar ried after the passage of the act, then the widow would be entitled to the bounty. The Second Comptroller of the Trea sury has decided that the war ended on the2oth of August, 186(1. Soldiers there fore, who enlisted for three years or during the war, and were discharged since then, will he entitled to bounty as three vear soldiers. MRS. PARTINGIK>N ON FASHION.— There is one thing sure, said Mrs. Par tingdon, the females of the present re generation are a heap more independ ent than they used to be. Why I saw a gal go by to-day that I know belongs to the historical class of society, with her dress all tucked up to her knee, her hair all buzzledup like as if she hadn't had time to comb for a week, and one of her grandmother's caps, in an awful crumpled Condition,on her head. Why laws, honey, when 1 was a gal, if any of the fellows come along when I had my clotljes tucked up that way, and my head kiverecl with an old white rag, I would run for dear life, and hide out of sight. Well, well, the gals then were innocent, unconfiscatedcreatures; now they are what the French cail "blazes." WRITTEN NOTICES.—We notice occa sionally a written "Notice" stuck up in some obscure corner, as if the author is ashamed to post it in a more conspicu ous place. Any man who writes his notices for a public sale, or things of that kind and gives economy for a rea son, siIOWS a sad deficiency of knowl edge. He is "penny wise and pound foolish," as nobody but old fogies will stop o read written hand-bills ncw-a days. If a man has anything to sell and expects to get its value, he must let it be known, and Printer's Ink is the on ly medium. Hand bills neatly execu ted at the GAZETTE office. HANGMAN'S DAY.—Governor CUR TIN, has put an endtothe superstitious practice too prevalent in this country, of ordering public executions to t>e made on Friday, which day of the week is therefore kept in bad repute, as "Hang man's Day." A short time ago he or dered a criminal tobeexecutedonsome other day, Monday, if we are not mis taken. He has just issued another death warrant for an execution in Lycoming county, naming Tuesday as the day for the completion of the sentence. If the Governors of other States would com bine to discountenance the peculiar practice of choosing Fridays for execu tions, in a few years the ancient super stitions which assigns bad luck to that day, would bealtogether forgotten. POISONOUS GASES FROM < >IU LAMPS. —Many persons who use kerosene or coal oil lamps are in the habit, when going to bed or leaving a room for a short time, of turning the wick down low, in order to save a trifle of the con sumption of oil. The consequence is that the air of the room soon becomes vitiated by the unconsimied oil vapors, by the gas produced by combustion, and also by the minute particles of smoke and soot which are thrown off. Air thus poisoned is deadly in its effects, and the wonder is that more persons are not immediately and fatally injured by breathing it. Irritation and infla mation of the throat and lungs, bead ache, dizziness and nausea are among its effects. A HAPPYSIGIIT. —The "local" of the Lynchburg fVeu-s thus describes a happy sight which he witnessed on Monday in that city: "We saw a woman yesterday from the country, promenading Bridge street, underneath a new spoon-bowl hat decked with a rooster feather, inside of a tilting'skeert, before a huge wa ter fall, having in her mouth acorn-cob pipe, and lier arms a baby about two months old. She looked like she felt she was in Mahomet's Seventh Heav en, and wax ready to exclaim 'cut my straps and let megoto glory.' She was a curiosity." THE WEIGHT OP SHEEP.—A rule prevalent in England for ascertaining the weight of each dressed quarter will be one-seventh of the live weight of the entire sheen; that is, if a live sheep weighs 1 H pounds, the dressed carcase will weigh 80 pounds. This ride is said to he tolerably accurate for fair order and not very fat. <)v next Sabbath, at lot o'clock, A. AL, Rev. A. R. Miller will commence, in the M. E. Church in this place, a se ries of sermons on the "Centenary of Methodism." The subject for Sabbath will be, The Origin and Primitive Fea tures of Methodism. A REVIVAL of religion has been in progress in the AL E. Church, in this place, during the past month. Up to this time some thirty souls have been converted to God, and others are still inquiring, "What must we do to be saved." GOOD FOR OYSTERS.—By a recent de cision of the Treasury Department, oys ters and other shell fish, placed in cans in a raw state for the purpose of trans portation, are not liable to a revenue tax.

In consequence of the recent great improvements in our manufacturing facilities, wo have reduced ourprices toaslow a point as they can be placed WITH GOLD AT PAR. so that no one need hesitate to buy a watch now from the expectation that it will bo cheaper at some future time. The test of ten years, and the manu facture and sale of MORE THAN 200,000 WATCIIES, have given our productions the very highest rank among tim keepers Commencing with the deter mination to make only thoroughly excellent watch es, our business has steadily increased as the pub lic became acquainted with their value, until for months together, \vc have been unable to supply the demand. We have repeatedly enlarged our factory buildings until thev now cover over three acres of ground, and give accommodation to more than eight hundred workmen. We are fully jus tified in saying that we now make more than ONE-HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES sold in the United States. The different grades are distinguished by the following trade-marks on the plate: 1. -'American Watch Co." Wnltham, Mass. 2. "Appleton, Tracy A Co." Waltham, Mass. 3. "P.S. Bartlctt," Waltham, Mass. 4. "Win. Ellery." 6. Our LAMES 7 WATCH of first quality is named "Appleton, Tracy & Co." Waltham. Mass. ti. Our next quality of Ladies' Watch is named "P. 8. Bartlett," Waltham, Mass. These watches are furnished in a great variety of sizes and styles of cases. The AMERICAN WATCH CO. of Waltham, Mass., authorize us to state that without distinction of trade-marks or price, ALL the products of their Factory are FULLY WARRANTED to be the best time-keepers of their class ever made in this or any other conntry. Buyers should remember that un like the guarantee of a foreign maker who can never be reached, this guarantee is good at all times against, the Company yr their agents, and that if after the most thorough trial, any watch should prove defective in any particular, it may be always exchanged for another.
