To FA KM Kits.—We call attention to
the notice of the officers of the Bedford
County Agricultural Society, published
in this issue. There appears to boa
good deal of apathy among the farmers
of our county, in relation to the pro
posed holding of a County Fair. Why
this is so, we are unable to conjecture.
It is certain that Agricultural Fairs
have always resulted in good to the
communities in which they have been
held, operating to produce better stock
and better grain, and to ameliorate the
hardships of agricultural labor, whilst
furnishing a most agreeable episode in
the yearly routine of the life of the
farmer. Why, then, not have a fair
this year in Bedford county? Our re
sources are ample to make a successful
exhibition, and all that is required to
put the matter through, is energy and
earnestness on the subject among the
farmers. We hope these will not be
wanting. Let there be a more lively
interest taken in the proposed Fair,
and let there be a full turn out on the
29th inst., the time fixed for the next
meeting of the Society.
WHO WANTS TO BUILD A RAIL
ROAD?—We find the following: in a re
port of some remarks made by a Mr.
Moore, of Pulton co., at the Railroad
Convention recently held at Harrison
ville, in that county:
"As to the possibility of a char
ter, he had visited Bedford in or
der to confer with Hon. John Cess
na, who is in the interest of the Pa.
Central, who had assured him that
he would not only give his lands (lying
along the proposed road) and take stock
iu the Co., but he pledged himself that
a charter should be procured from the
Legislature of Maryland."
So it appears that the "Hon. John
Cessna is in the interest of the Pa. Cen
tral !" Hadn't the Hertford Inquirer
better keep an eye on him? And Mr.
Cessna will give his lands and take
stock, and "pledged himself that a
charter should be procured from the
Legislature of Maryland." John must
own the Maryland Legislature that he
can pledge himself for its action. Who
ever wants to build a railroad, can get
the charter, stock, lands, <fcc., to do it,
from the "Hon. John Cessna." This
simplifies things amazingly. No need
of a "Free Railroad Law," now! "Up
on what meat hath this our Cesar fed,
that he has grown so great!"
RAILROAD-CONVENTION. —We learn
from the McConnellsburg papers that
a Railroad Convention was held at
Harrisonville, Fulton county, on Sat
urday, Bth inst., at which the follow
ing resolutions were unanimously a
dopted:
Whereas , this Convention regards the
development of coal at or near New
Grenada, one of the proposed termini
of the projected Rail Road, as a vital
condition to securing the completion
of said Rail Road; and Whereas, the
N. G. O. and M. Company is willing to
enter into practical effort to develop
said coal, therefore,
Resolved , That the Convention recom
mends to the citizens of this county,
and parts adjacent, interested in the
contemplated Rail Road, to subscribe
for shares of stock in the above compa
ny to the extent of three thousand dol
lars, the fund so raised to be applied
exclusively to shafting, or digging, to
develop the vein of Anthracite coal
alleged to have been penetrated in the
process of boring for oil at New Grena
da, Fulton county, Pa., and that the
President of the Convention name a
committee of one from each district in
the county and one in Hancock, Md.,
to carry out the purposes of this reso
lution.
SAD ACClDENT.— Matthias Ott, of
St. Clair tp., fell from the roof of a
building at Mr Wm. Oster's, near St.
Clairsville, a few days ago, and was
instantly killed, the fall dislocating his
neck and fracturing his skull. Mr. Ott
was about to fix a rafter in its place,
when he lost his equilibrium and fell
to the basement of the building. De
ceased leaves a large and dependent
family to mourn his loss.
FESTIVAL. —The Presbyterian Mite
Society of the borough of Bloody Run,
will hold a grand Festival and Fair,
commencing on Tuesday evening, June
25th. There will be a public dinner
on Wednesday noon. The society will
erect a large pavilion in the centre of
the town, and as the accommodations
will be ample, it is hoped there will be
a full attendance.
REMEDY FOR THE SUFFERING.— We
would recommeud all suffering from the
oppressive heat to buy a whole linen
suit at the Emporium of Berkstresser
& Co. Straw hats and linen goods in
abundance. Remember the place,
Julianna street.
REGULATOR.— Unparallelled attrac
tions at Irvine and Statler's Regulator.
Boots, Shoes, Fancy Articles, Queens
ware, Cigars and Tobacco, cheap and
good. Call and see.
REMOVAL.— The office of Meyers &
Dickerson, Attorneys at Law, has been
removed to the rooms formerly occu
pied by Hall and Palmer, on Julianna
street.
GOOD TEMPI,AKS ATTENTION!—
Cold Sparkling Soda Water, fivecents a
glass, at Lewis' JDrug store.
APRID REPORT OP THE AGRICUL
TURAL DEPARTMENT.—The report of
the Agricultural Department for April
says—"Never has there been so general
an expression of encouragement in view
of the tine condition of winter wheat
since the establishment of the present
system for the collection of crop statis
tics. In more than nine-tenths of the
returns received the condition of the
crop is reported favorable and promis
ing. From the South the returns are
as cheering as from the West. Here
and there it is stated that a smaller
breadth, from the lack of labor, or from
bad weather in the fall, was sown or
drilled. In a few places winter killing
is reported."
•
EDS. GAZETTE:—Some of the "suffer
ers" that work at the "gutters," ask
you to return their devout thanks to
the "Friend" who put it into the phil
osophical noddle of the active, little
junior editor of the Bedford Inquirer,
to recommend umbrellas, and umbrella
holders for them. They are very grate
ful for the kindness , and several days
before the friendly notice appeared, had
an idea of getting the aforesaid editor
No. 2, to hold the umbrellas for them,
but, owing to his bad health during the
war , and the exertions he makes car
rying that stick, they had not the heart
to ask him to "carry arms' I '' so heavy as
an umbrella.
They also had that other "bold sol
dier," the editor's "friend," in view,
but they did not ask him, because ev
ery body says, the laziest brute in all
the town is the " Gravel Hill Calf." *
FARMERS who sow early and drill in
their grain scarcely ever miss a wheat
crop. Some of our farmers in order to
save expense as they think, in buying,
depend on their neighbors for a drill,
and of course, must wait their neigh
bor's time. Men who manage thus
never amount to much, as farmers or
citizens. Own your machinery! Ev
ery farmer should own a drill, then he
can sow when ready. We are glad to
learn from Hartley & Metzger that
they are selling so many drills— but
they assure us, that unless farmers en
gage them soon, they will not be able
to procure the Gum Rubber Drills, as
the demand for them is increasing ev
ery year.
MEINHEHR GAZETTE:—I am sorry
to say that the "city fathers" of our
Borough, have not yet complied with
the requisition of that far famed sheet
the " Bedford Inquirer ," a model of
purity, wisdom and honesty, in that
they have failed to procure additional,
help to hold umbrellas over us while
paving Penn and Bedford Streets.
Being iu danger of being sun-struck I
informed the aforesaid "city fathers,"
that I would stand it no longer, when
they promised a little shade on the
subject. I have been informed that
every effort has been made to effect that
purpose, but without success. 1 was
hoping that some of our friends, who
seem to take such a deep interest in our
welfare, would invent some economical
means to shield us from the threatened
calamity, but it seems that they have
110 more brains than the laws of the
land allow them, and are minus any
inventive genius. Could notoneofthe
Editors of the Inquirer, or V. V. Esq.,
invent some such commodity in order
to relieve us? We would remember
them forever and a day longer. We
hope that this matter will be attended
to soon, that our lives may be prolonged
for the benefit of such lazy louts as the
Inquirer fellows and their friend. Very
Respectfully, J. C. BOWERS.
Bedford, June 18, 1867.
—The local elections in West Vir
ginia, which have recently taken place,
show large conservative gains, and
many counties have been completely
revolutionized. Every county in what
is known as the Panhandle has given
large conservative majorities, and the
great diminution in radical strength
is said to be noticeable everywhere.
—Ben. Butler says the diamond pin
that Booth wore when captured cannot
be found. We are astonished. It could
not be that Baker or anybody connect
ed with the party that hunted him
down could have stolen it. We should
1 as soon suspect Butler himself.
