PAY THE PRINTER !
We have just sent a number of hills
to persons indebted to us for job work
and advertising. This kind of work
is always intended to be rash, but we
have waited for months <>n some of it
;:ul for years on others. If <mu d have
these bills paid. Had we no debts of
our own, we might give a hundred
years' grace to those who owe us. Rut
we must pay our debts, and, hence, we
are compelled to collect from those
who are indebted to us. The books of
U. F. Meyers are also unsettled and j
must be closed up. We are driven to
. nding bills to all, irrespective of per
„,ns, and we hope that we will not be
.oinpelled to resort to any thing more
stringent. But we must have our betolis
<r ured up, and a word to* the wise is
-efficient.

How TO MAKE 'MONEY.—A mer-1
chant, says an exchange, who goes in
to a certain line of business, does it for
the purpose of making money. The j
■Direr the list of customers, the better
it i- for the merchant. Ilow will he
• cure customers ? We answer, then, j
there are several ways,'but there.are
certain tilings indispensable to success. \
l-t. He must sell*agood article. If
he is a dry goods merchant his calicoes
must always wash when they are war
ranted ; if he is a grocer, his sugar and
hi-spices must be pure; if he is a hard- i
wore dealer, he must not sell iron for
•ttel. lie must, in fact, be honest, though
many a dishonest merchant has sue*
ee sled.
2d. He should sell at fair prices.
:kl. His stock should be full, of the j
st kind, adapted to the wants of the
public, and suited to every variety of
taste.
4th. Employing clerks or assistants,
me but gentlemen or ladies should
•wr be allowed behind a counter. Let
customer once meet with a curt an
•ui r from a clerk, and he makes nffi
avit inwardly that he will no more j
•nter that store while life is spared. No
matter how nice the goods, he will
make himself believe that some other
"Üblishinent sells jus, as good stuffs :
t- the gruff clerk exhibits. You have j
st that customer forever. Courtesy \
is a great card to draw custom. * i
fith. The arrangement of the estab-!
. shment outside as well as inside,
must be cheerful, attractive and conve-1
nieat. The number of the store, the
business, the name of the proprietor
all should be made prominent and,
clear.
After having fulfilled all these indis- j
pen-able pre-requisites, the next thing 1
to be done is to let people know that
you have done all these things. How
is that to be accomplished ? It can be '
done only in one way, and that is thro'
the medium of advertising. The i
business world acknowledged
this as one of the axioms of trade. To
-ucceed in business through liberal ad
vertising is a natural result—to fail
iroin neglect to do so is equally dem-1
1 nstrabJeas the result of business laws.
What merchant would fail to put up 1
his sign ? An advertisement is only a
-.gn of business, read by ten thousand >
hues as manv eyes as that sign over
door of the shop or establishment.;
. .he a weekly newspaper with one j
usand subscribers. Each paper is j
' ; 1 on an average by not less than five j
rsons every week. So that every I
ivertiser's newspaper is read weekly"'
y fire thousand people.
It is said, sometimes, that the great
•t humbugs are generally those who i
.-t rich by advertising a poor article,!
tainly an hone-t man who advert,!- !
-agood article will do much letter. !
-Tea have succeeded without adver
•mg much. True; but how 'one did it \
litem? Had they been equally
-••st d alers, and advertises I exten
■W, their business would have been
up in one-half the time.
Tiii- is an age of progress, and an age |
■hange. The popular notion is ca
y taken with what is new or novel. •
uiis is the reason that some firms,
a <■< meup, thrived and grown rich,
iieold established firms have stood!
• t'H-tiy quiet. This proves the tie- j
Ttv for even old firms to advertise, \
<■ the trading public will go with
rowd to that nlace which adverti

ED. GAZETTE For a long time Rase
Rail has been the national game. Hav
ing its birth in our cities, it flourished,
then spread through every town and
village where eighteen young men
could be found. The fever reached the
Alleghenies, and seated itself in Red
ford. Mere it prevailed (or a time. The
game was played in cold and dreary
winter months, oftentimes when snow
was falling, then in the sultry months
of summer, when the heat was intense.
Many are the pleasant remembrances
of the match games between the "Ju
niata" and "Mineral the
"Eats" ami" Leans,""the "J uuiata" and
"Rosolutes," but not so jHeasant the re
membrance of the game between the
"Juniata" and the "Social" of Hunt
ingdon. Now, while we are enjoying
beautiful weather scarcely ever is Base
Ball thought of. Occasionally a feeble
game is attempted. What's the mat
'tcr ? 1 he only reason that can be found
is, that "Croquet" has superseded Base
Ball. This may be rightly termed a
ladies' game, though young men often
join, thinking it pleasant, no doubt, to
engage in a game with ladies. It is the
only game young ladies have which
gives thein out-door exercise. I think
there are at least twenty-live different
sets of "Croquet" in Bedford. Walk
ing to-day in the suburbs, I saw chil
dren in great numbers, playing the
game, the mallets were rude, made from
ribbon.sticks, the arches still more rude,
but the players enjoyed the game none
the less for that. Happy game! happy
children! At the Union School House
we saw young ladies attended by young
men, enjoying the game, their set be
ing a neat one, but the balls showing
much use. Then, on the common,
another party with their smiling faces
are croqueting and roqueting.
"Very, very famous is the game they play
In the pleasant sunshine, whiting hours away.
See the balls are rolling swiftly o trthe grass,
Green and blue and scarlet, through thenoopg
they pass."
Hoping that the ladies may have pleas
ant weather in which to enjoy the
game, your correspondent would urge
the young men to resume again the
game of Base Bull. DOT.
GETTYS' NEW PHOTOGRAPH GAL
LERY.—We had the pleasure, the oth
er day, of being shown through Gettys'
new Photograph Gallery, three doors
West of Dr. Harry's Drug Store, on
Pitt street. We do not hesitate to pro
nounce Mr. Gettys'room-to be supe
rior to any we have seen outside the
cities. His apparati are all new and of
the best sort. His pictures are tasteful
and correct and we recommend him, as
an artist, to all who would have their
"counterfeit presentment" accurately
made, and in good style. Persons at*
tending Court will do well to give him
a call.
THE GARDEN.—Now and then a
pleasant sunny day Iri late Antunin
breaks in upon us, as if to admonish us
not to leave many such go by without
performing the numerous outdoor fall
labors. They cannot he better employ
ed than by clearing the yard and gar
den of whatever rubbish may have ac
cumulated in the summer months.
There arc tomato vines, stumps of cab
bage, some late weeds and other useless
plants, all of which should lie cast out,
root and branch. It will not be regret
ted when Springopens to find your gar
den clean and inviting—ready for spade
and rake.
ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING.—On Satur
day oflast week, while on a gunning
excursion in Blackleg Valley, a son of
Mr John Shope, a lad of about twenty,
was shot by the accidental discharging
of a gun in the hands of a son of Ed
ward Zurner.
Zuruer, while capping his gun rest
ing aero-- his arm, let -lip the hammer,
discharged the load the wholeof which
entered the arm and side of young
: Shope, who was standing closely in
I range of the muzzle and was seriously,
though, it is thought, not mortally
wounded. Four or five shot entered his
body, and it is supposed entered his
lungs. This is another result of the
careless handling of firearms, and should
serve as a warning. — A ugh wi<-k lit raid.
PRESERVING APPLES. —A- this is the
i season for packing apples, whatever is
new and practicable relating thereto
will be of interest, not only to produc
ers, but to our town readers, who con
j template providing a quantity of this
fruit for winter and spring use. Here
: is what a gentleman contributes to an
agricultural journal:
! "A layer of dry saw dust wassprink
| led at the bottom of the packing box,
and then a layer of apples placed in so
that they didnottouch each other. Fit
on these was placed a layer of sawdust,
and so on until the box was tilled. The
; boxes, after being packed in this way,
t were placed on the wail in the cellar,
i up from the ground, where thy kept
! perfectly sound? retaining their fresh
ness and flavor, brought out andexhibi
i ten I at the fair."
DEER KILLED.—Our young friends,
\V. C. Schaetfer and John Lee, of this
j place, made a hunting excursion !ast
■ week, through Southampton tp., and
j succeeded, by the help of some of the
hunters of that region, in bringing
j home a fine deer, also a number of
| wild turkeys, pheasants, partridges,
; <fcc. Pretty welll done for our young
i hunters.
HALT AND ASHES FOR HORSES.—
Those keeping horses should, twice a
week, throw in a handful to each, of
salt and ashes. Mix them by putting
in three parts of silt to one of ashes.
; Horses relishthis, audit will keep their
hair soft and line, it will prevent hots,
colic, Ac. -V littleground sulphur mix
led with suit and ashes and given once
in two or three weeks, isalso beneficial.
All domestic animals will be thusbene-
I fited.
VISITORS. WO had the pleasure of a
call, the other day, from Senator C. M.
Dur.can and John R. Orr.Esq., ofCham
bersburg, and also from lion. P. Ilam
ill, one of the Delegates elect from Alle
ghany co., to the Maryland Legislature.
1 hev are all agreeable gentlemen and
excellent Democrats. Success attend

J IOME-MAI>E VINEGAR.—Every
family ma 1 * make its own vinegar. The
Maine Fanner publishes the recipe for
making it, furnished by a lady. She
took the parings and cores of apples,
poured on boiling water, with a little
molasses and yeast, put all in a large
stone jar and kept it where it was mod
erately warm. In three weeks it was
good, sharp vinegar.
Mftrra WHO.—-The meteoric shower
promised us for last (Tuesday) night,
did not "come off. 1 There was great
watching, on the part of the good peo
ple of our town, hut they "couldn't see
it."
THE REGULATION SUIT.—If you
want to enlist in the army of well
dressed gentlemen, you can get your

IT is thought that the corn crop of
Pennsylvania for this year, will reach
to about 510,000,000 bushels—being an
average yield of :>4 bushels for each acre
planted.
ADv ERT is I-:. —The Holidays are com
ing ! Business men should remember
this fact, for now is the time to advertise
largely.
THE largest Buckwheat crop ever
raised in Pennsylvania, has been liar
vested this autumn. This is the opin
ion of knowing agriculturalists.
THE demand for laboring men in all
parts of the State, is said to have never
been so great as it is at the present time.

WE have never known an instance of
the failure of any one who advertised
freely in order to extend his trade.
OUR fanners are having a jolly good

their corn crop.
WHAT fruit does a newly married
couple most resemble? A green pear.
It is estimated that the grain crop of
IBM is worth 8 l,n( 10,01)0,000.
THE SOUTHWEST.—An old planter
in Vicksburg writes that the present
winter is destined to witness the most
severe distress throughout all the
Southern country.
In that region the crops have failed
to such an extent that it has taken all
the product of the cotton crop to pay
the rent, leaving the merchant who
funnelled the supplies to the planter,
and the planter himself, without a
cent.
A planter or. the Yazoo who put
three hundred acres in cotton hail only
a dozen bales as the result in crop, and
this, with his mules, was seized for
dqbt.
Another planter, also on tlp> Yazoo,
had 8<H) acres planted, and his yield
■ was twenty bales. The very best crop
on the Yazoo will not produce this sea
son, more than one-third of a hale to
the acre, while the crop of the entire
State is put down at only 1(1(1,POO bales,
against l,(Hsfl,txH) in 18->'l.
Despite these drawbacks, however,
most of the lessees of plantations from
the North had concluded to remain for
another year, believing that the fail
ures just witnes-ed have been caused
by circumstances beyond human con
trol, and that next year there will be
a better chance of success.

NEW YORK, November G. —The

says: Maximilian appointed Marshal
Bazaine temporary Recent, and took
his departure for Vera Cruz, on the 21st,
going around about way, toavoid meet
ing General Casteinau, who was at the
same time en route from Vera Crux to
Mexico. The Ministry upon hearing
of the appointment of'Bazaine imme
diately resigned,
Casteinau arrived at the Capital on
the 23d, and took on himself the ad
ministration of the government."
An Austrian frigate at VeraCruz was
awaiting Maximilian's arrival to de
part for Europe.
General Casteinau, it i- understood,
brought orders to Maximilian to turn
iiis empire over to Bazaine.
A DISPATCH from Washington says:
It is not jirobable that General Sher
man's letter will be made public, but a
gentleman who has seen it, says it is a
Brief but -cordial indorsement of the
President. It was written on the last
day of last February, and is a volunta
ry acton the part of the General. In
opening it he informs the President
that he does not feci like having Wash
ington without informing him of his
indorsement of the course of the Execu
tive on the great question of restoration,
and he then proceeds to denounce Thad.

END or NATIONAL, BANKS.— The
Comptroller of the Currency announces
that bonds have been received for de
posit with the Treasurer of the United
States to an amount sufficient to secure
the entire three hundred millions of
National circulation authorized by law,
and no more can lie received after this
date. Tim limit lias been reached, and
hereafter it will be useless to forward
bonds or to apply for an increase of cap

meekness and sincere piety of this good Mother in

large cirele of her acquaintances. And though
the loss they sustain in her death cannot be re

many acts of love and charity, and also in the "re
collection of her many virtues, they have a never
failing source of comfort. "Blessed are the dead
which die in the Lord."

AME RI CA N WATCHES,
MADE AT WALTHAM, MASS.
In consequence of the recent great improvements
in our manufacturing facilities, we have reduced
ur prices to as low a point as they an be placed
WITH GOLD AT PAR,
so that no one need hesitate to buy a watch now
from the expectation that it will be cheaper at some
future time. The test often years, and the manu
facture and sale of
MORE THAN 200,000 WATCHES,
i have given our productions the verv highest rank
among tint 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, we have been unable to supply
the demand We have repeatedly enlarged our
factory buildings until they 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." Waltham. Mass.
2. "Appleton, Tracy A Co." Waltham, Mass.
3. "P. S. Harriett,' Waltham, Mass.
4. "Win. Ellery."
5. Our LADIES' WATCH of first quality is named

Factory are FULLY WARRANTED to be the best
time-keepers of theirelass ever made in this or any

like the guarantee of a foreign maker who can
never be reached, this guarantee is good at all
times against the Company or 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. As the Ameri
can Watches made at Waltham, are for sale by
dealers generally throughout the couu.ry, wo do
not solicit orders for single Watches.
