TIIE FOURTH ATSCHELLSBUKG.— The Ninety-First anniversary of the sign ing of the Declaration of Independence, was celebrated in appropriate style, at Schellsburg. A large crowd from the surrounding country was in attendance. In the forenoon the Bedford Democrat ic Brass Band paraded the strets, play ing patriotic airs. Mr. Burton Edsall, of the Exchange Hotel, served up a magnificent entertainment which was partaken of by upwards of one hundred guests. The dinner was gotten up under the superintendence of Mrs. Edsall, as sisted by Mrs.Snively, late of the "Ex change," and reflected great credit up on theculinary education of those ladies. It was truly one of the best dinners we ever sat down to. Dinner having been discussed, the crowd assembled in front of the "Exchange," a large stand hav ing been erected there for the accom modation of of the speakers. After sev eral beautiful airs by the Band, the meeting was called to order by the ap pointment of CHARLES DANNAKKR ESQ., as President, Emanuel Statler, Esq., Vice President, Walter Garlinger ami , Secretaries. On mo tion of John S. Schell, Esq., the Declara tion of Independence was then read by Mr. J. H. Whetstone. After the read ing of the Declaration was concluded, B. F. Meyers, Esq., of Bedford, was in troduced as the orator of the occasion, and proceeded to deliver a patriotic ad dress, which was well received by the audience. On motion it was unani mously reso'ved that a copy of Mr Meyers'address be solicited for publi cation in the county papers, and a com mittee was appointed for that purpose. M. A. Points, Esq., was then called upon, and in some happily expressed remarks, referred to the appropriate and pleasing manner in which the cel ebration had been conducted, after which the meeting adjourned, all appar ently satisfied that they had once more beheld an old fashioned Fourth of Ju ly. _ PISCATORIAL. —A number of young "bloods" from this place (including our junior partner) went on a fishing ex cursion to the Alleghany mountains, one day last week. They had great luck. Two of the party lost themselves in the woods and were compelled to camp out. Their food was—not locusts and wild honey. They are supposed to have subsisted principally on birch bark and dried fish-worms. The re mainder of the party did all the dam age they could to their clothes and the pantries of the mountain people. The whole set returned some days after ward, considerably the worse for the wear. If they got any trout, the se nior saw none of them, and, therefore, further this deponent saith not. AGRICULTURAL MEETING.—A meet ing of the Bedford County Agricultural Society, was held in the Court House, on Saturday, June 2!), Hon. S. L. ltus sell, President, in the chair, and I. F. Meyers, secretary pro tern. On motion it was resolved to hold a County Fair on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the Second, Third and Fourth days of October, next. After the transaction of some other business the meeting ad journed. TIIE FOURTH AT SAXTON. —There was a grand and glorious time at Sax ton on the Fourth. The Odd Fellows had a large parade, making a beautiful display, and Dr. C. X. Hickok, of Bed ford, delivered an eloquent and interest ing address. We have not been fur nished the particulars of the proceed ings. FOR FRUIT CANS.— Take rosin, eight ounces; gum shellac, two ounces; bees wax, one-half ounce, and if you desire it colored, English vermillion, one and a half ounces. Melt the rosin, and stir in the vermillion, if used. Then add the shellac slowly, and afterwards the beeswax. This will make quite a quantity, and needs only to be melted to be ready for use at any time. HORSE AGE. —It is said that after a liorse is nine years old a wrinkle comes on the eyelid at the upper corner of the lower lid, and every year thereafter he has one well-defined wrinkle for each year over nine. If, for instance, a horse has three wrinkles, he is twelve; if four, he is thirteen, <£c. R. W.

GEISENHAINER, of Bethle hem, Pa., will preach in the Lutheran church, on next Lord's day morning, at 10 j o'clock. EDS. GAZETTE.:—UIe of the April numbers of your paper, contains an ar ticle in which the writer denounces the action of the Board of Directors of. Bloody Run, upon the question of rent for School House, for private Schools. The writer's statements are very plausi ble to all unacquainted with the facts; but, as we ciaim as much intelligence for our Board, as can be found among the petitioner and his friends, we shall venture a reply. Your columns were offered us at the time of the publication of "Petition er's" article, yet we preferred waiting for the advertised Report of the Board for that school year. We believed, then, that the Board was not disregarding the interests of the Borough, in order to favor the teacher, and if those who were then disposed to censure and threaten will read the report, they must conclude that their demands had been met by the Board, and, that our confi dence was not misplaced. It is very uncharitable, to denounce the action of any one, without positive assurance that such denunciations are merited. School Boards have very of ten the most perplexing questions pre sented to them, and without an ac quaintance with all the facts, their de cisions cannot be fully understood. But, nearly all localities contain a class of citizens who are eternally clam oring about the schools. They claim to favor public schools, yet are never pleased with the official conduct of their Directors, and will charge, accuse and lampoon, in a most unchristian man ner, without asking a single question as to the causes of the action of their respective Boards. Directors receive but few thanks for the performance of their duties, at best; yet, when citizens are disposed to cir culate remonstrances in opposition to their decision, and publish charges in the county papers that have not a shad ow of truth in them, how futile seem the anxieties and labors gratuitously bestowed by them, for the benefit of the young, when a few demagogues will do their utmost to defeat every good measure. Could those persons be in duced to exhibit as much interest in the intellectual welfare of their children, as they at all times show for their hors es or poultry, their own and their children's appearance and enjoyments, we should have a different state of af fairs. The comfort of children in the school rooms, is of no consequence to them. The encouragement that the teacher should have to enable him to discharge his duties so as to benefit all, is never given by visits to the school, or by words or looks elsewhere. But on the slightest intimation of neglect or mistake on the part of those who do their utmost for the advancement of education, no effort seems too great that will magnify and give publicity, to that for which generosity should de mand forbearance. The charge against the Board of this Borough, was exceed ingly ungenerous, for they not only exercised the most scrupulous care of the property of the public, but did the best they could for the children of the dissatisfied. The rent question is answered in the Report in a satisfactory manner. We think it should satisfy the most exact ing, for it is there shown that they re ceived an amount not less than $G<) for the use of the house for G months. Will "Petitioner" read that report and re lieve his credulity? We hope he may be relieved, and hereafter give his in fluence in favor of every measure that will tend to advance the interest of our schools, until they stand first in the County. CITIZEN. Bloody Run, June 24, 18G7. We gather the following particulars , from a Philadelphia contemporary in regard to the liiver-side Institute, the advertisement of which appears iu our columns:— This Institute promises to be one of I the grandest and noblest institutions of its kind ever organized. In order that money may be speedily raised for the maintenance of the Home, the Wash ington Library Company has organized and adopted a plan which will meet with a hearty approval and earnest sup port from all. This Company knowing from the past that to raise funds by ap peals to the charitable public is Slow and uncertain work, oftentimes result ing in total failure, have adopted their present method for accomplishing this much-desired result. Their plan is to issue stock at one dollar per share, each share of stock entitling the holder there of to one finely-executed steel plate en graving, which at retail could not be purchased for this sum. In addition to this, presents consisting of several thousand dollars in greenbacks, real es tate, horses, jewelry, silver ware, sew ing machines, pianos, melodeons, and hundreds of other valuable articles a mounting in the aggregate to $300,000, will also be bestowed among the stock holders. Every stockholder not only receives his engraving at the time of purchase, but will also receive a pres ent at the distribution, there being no exceptions. The Company are enabled to act thus liberally from the fact, that making their purchases of engravings, and of the presents to be given away, in such enormously large quantities, the cost per single article is greatly re duced to what would be the price were the purchase of the same made at retail. Besides this all the presents, such as ri - al estate, etc,, have been handed over to the Company by the original owners at their lowest market value. On this account are the Company enabled to of fer such great inducements to those who would interest themselves and aid in alleviating the miseries and distress of the hundreds and thousands of poor and forsaken orphans who are now daily seen in the lanes and thoroughfares of our large cities.

GOOD SENSE AND ONE PRICE, — Good Judgment in the selection of Farm Mu ch inert/ and Hardware —one price to all —and .fair, reasonable Profits, are the secrets of the success of thefirm of Hart ley & Metzger. It is astonishing to see the business done at this store. Great piles of Reapers, Mowers, Horse Rakes, Cradles, <Src, melt away, to make room for long trains of the world renowned Gum Roller Grain Drills, of which they expect to sell a mile this season, and no wonder at this, for they are certainly the best farm machine ever invented. Go in time if you want one. CURE YOUR CORNS.— An exchange says: Put the feet for half an hour, two or three successive nights, in a pretty strong solution of soda. The alkali dis solves the indurated cuticle, and the corns fall out spontaneously, leaving a small cavity, which soon fills. This re ceipt is vouched for as a certain reme dy.
