DARING ROBBERY.— On Thursday
night, 6th inst., the public house of Mr.
Joseph Cessna, at the "Foot of the
Ridge," several miles west of this place,
was entered and several hundred dol
lars in money taken therefrom. About
twenty dollars were taken from the
money drawer of Mr Cessna's bar, and
the remainder from the clothes of per
sons lodging at Mr. Cessna's house.
The robbers appear to have gone about
their work quite deliberately. They
entered Mr. Cessna's spring-house, re
galed themselves with the edibles kept
there, and pinned a Confederate note
to the wall of the house, with a fork (or
knife, we have forgotten which) used
in despatching their meal. No clue as
to who they were has yet been discov
ered.
LATE PLANTING. —Our farmers have
been considerably delayed in getting
their corn planted. Many of them had
been unable to prepare their ground on
account of continued rains, and they
had scarcely twenty-four fair working
ing hours during the entire month of
May. The close of last week witnessed
a general conscription of field hands
for dropping and covering throughout
the county, and the grains are germin
ating in theground. Theadage of better
late than never, has full force this sea
son in regard to putting in corn.
THE new liquor law in Pennsylvania
makes it the duty of policemen to ar
rest every person who is found in a
state of intoxication in the streets or
public houses, and orders that the in
dividual shall be taken before a mag
istrate and submit to an examination
there as to where he got the liquor,
which is to be followed by a strict
prosecution of the person who sold it
to the inebriate.
"TAX PAY ER."— A S^HE" "party sub
scribing himself "Tax Payer," in last
week's Inquirer , has not given us his
name, we don't know whether he is
one of the "tax-payers" whose name
stands on several of the old duplicates,
with taxes unpaid, or whether he is
one of the very few who pay their tax
es when they ought to, and thus re
lieve the people of the burthens contin
ually impose d upon them by the drones
and store-box loafers of the town, who
with hands in pocket, or whittling a
stick, offer their charitable criticisms
upon the actions of others. As he omit
ted to give, in his list of expenditures,
the S7OO or SBOO that were thrown away
a few years since on the street running
past Shuck's shop and Mrs. Brown's
residence, but which was done under
a different administration, we conclude
that he might have had a hand in that
wise expenditure, or is influenced now
by partizan motives. How easy it is to
talk instead of to do things. A scrib
bler, however, if he does want to scrib
ble, ought to acquaint himself with
facts, before he undertakes to write a
bout things he don't know anything
about. That the gutters he speaks of
are filled with small stonqs, to be wash
ed away with the first rain, &c., is not
true. The bottom of every gutter is
well paved with large stones, and the
smallerjones thrown on to fill up the
crevices. A heavy rain, filling every
gutter, has fallen since some of these
were fixed, and at points where they
were well tried, and they answered the
purpose exactly—not even a little stone
was washed away, and not a lot flooded
where it had been flooded before.
The Reservoir is not our making, and
we are not, therefore, responsible; but
like the gutters and everything else,
before our wiseacres opinionate too
much, they had better try it. We ex
pect to make it answer a very good pur
pose. If it don't, then it is time enough
to condemn it. If "tax-payer" and his
neighbors will just pay, the work will
soon be done, and if he and they don't
we have an improvement for him and
them to make—the ouly one we can
think of that suits them, and that is to
fence in the town and if they have en
ergy enough left, then whitewash it
and let it stand.

THE BEST. —We have seen WAR
REN'S PATENT ELECTRIC CHURN, pat
ented April 16, 1867, by J. A. Warren,
Gettysburg, Adams County, Pa. This
churn is the greatest success of the age.
Mr. Warren, we are told, has beeu
working at this lor some years, and af
ter years of labor, his work has been
crowned with success. We doubt not
that it defies the world. We have of
ten cautioned our readers to beware of
patent churn men, so we do yet—be
ware of those New England scamps
who make their living by cheating the
people—but we say to one and all buy
Warren's churn. It embodies all the
excellencies of the old dasher or box
churn with a great saving of from ono
half to one hour's time. It will posi
tively churn butter in from one to five
minutes. R. W. Berkstresser & Co.
have the sole right for this county, and
will give the churn a fair trial at every
farm house in the county.
"THE QUEKN OF THE MONTHLIES."
— A LADY friend styles Demoresfs Il
lustrated Magazine as the Queen of the
Monthlies, and it is not unworthy of
the title. The July number, which
has come early to hand, is as gorgeous
as the month is represents. It is brim
ming full of good stories, fine illustra
tions, household hints, and gay, season
able fashions. Notwithstanding that
this publication is issued from an "Em
porium of Fashions," the editors do
not disdain a glance at folly as she flies,
and some of the best hits at prevailing
frivolities which we have ever seen
were found in the pages of " Demorestf
To ladies living far from metropolitan
centres, it is especially valuable and
useful, and we are not surprised that
so many confess it "indispensable."
The subscription price is $3 per year,
with a handsome premium. Addrsss,

SALARIES OF JUDGES.— By the ap
propriation bill passed at the last ses
sion of our Legislature, the salary of
the President Judge of this district
was fixed at $3,500 for the present year.
The salaries of Associate Judges of this
Commonwealth were fixed at the sum
of five dollars per day for every day,
not exceeding fifty they may be em
ployed in discharge of their official du
ties and for every day in excess of fifty
the sum of three dollars is allowed; pro
vided the salary of no associate Judge
shall be less than three hundred dol
lars.
DEATH OF MRS. BAKER. —We learn
from the Fulton Republican that Mrs.
Harriet Baker, wife of Mr. Samuel Ba
ker, died several weeks since at her
home, in Ohio, from the effects of in
juries recieved by the running away of
a horse last fall in the vicinity of Mc-
Connellsburg, which at that time resul
ted in the death of Miss Laura Hassler,
of this place.

Machine.
SUIT FOR DAMAGES.—The proprie
