DIABOLICAL OUTRAGE!— A Kegro
attempts to commit a Rape upon a young
Ij(uly !—lleuses a Knife and threatens
to cut her heart out!— Great excitement
in this community !—On Friday evening
last, as Miss Nora Filler daughter of
Capt. Jos. Filler was passing from the
lower part of town to her home, a few
hundred yards distant, just as she
stepped from the northern end of the
"wire bridge," she was met by a negro
man, who walked past her, but imme
diately turned about, seized her, at
tempted to gag her, and threw her to
the ground. It was then just dusk,
but a cloud had arisen in the west and
a violent storm was approaching, which
rendered the evening rather dark.—
Still, there was sufficient light for Miss
Filler to recognize her assailant, and
she called him by name, begging him
to desist. He replied that he would
"cut her heart out," if she resisted, and
"would shoot her if she told on him,"
drawing a Knife as he said these words.
Though frightened almost to death,
the poor girl struggled heroically and
succeeded in keeping her tiendish as
sailant at bay until he heard the ap
proach of some students going to town,
which drove him away before he had ac
complished his purpose. Halfdead with
fright and terribly bruised, the young
lady went toward her home, shriek
ing and crying, and passed the night
in a state of distraction. Parties who
visited her the next day, informed us
that her face was much cut, and that
the marks of the negro's etforts to gag
her are left on her throat and cheeks.
Miss Filler, on Saturday evening,
made information before Esq. Nico
deiiius, charging John Brown, a negro
lately a hostler in the stable of Mr. John
Little, as the perpetrator of the crime.
There was unaccountable delay in
making the information and the affair
was kepi so quiet that but few persons
knew of it until Saturday evening.—
When it became known, however, there
was a universal expression of horror
and indignation*, and every effort was
at once made to arrest theeriminal. A
reward of SIOO.OO was raised by the
citizens, and squads started out in every
direction W> find Drown. At this writ
ing he has not been arrested. He is a
short, thick set, stoop-shouldered fellow
with a goatee, and is about twenty-five
years old. One of his hands was cut
in the struggle with Miss Filler.
A NEW RAILROAD PROJECT.—John
W.Duncan Esq., and other gentlemen of
Pittsburg, and James Madara, Esq.,
and other leading citizens of Morrison's
Cove, are agitating the building of a
rail road from Newry, byway of
Bloomfield Furnace, through the cove
to Ilopewell. This is a very impor
tant enterprise. It would develop the
large and valuable deposits of hema
tite iron and other minerals, along the
route. It would ofi'er proper facilities
to the farmers to transport their crops
to market, and put the people of the
Cove in more direct communication
with Bedford. We hope this enter
prise may be successful.
There is also another project sugges
ted, viz: the extension of the Holli
daysburg and Newry railroad to Cum
berland, Md. The people of Union,
St. Clair, Be iford and Cumberland Val
ley townships, would be greatly bene
fited by the success of this scheme and
there is no reason why it should not be
successful, if prosecuted with the prop
er energy. In the first place, we need
legislation ; there must he liberal char
ters for the companies that will under
take to build these roads. Much, there
fore, will depend upon the character
of our representatives at Harrisburg.
In view of these facts, we ask, ought
not every friend of railroad improve
ments, vote for Hon. W. P. Schell?
THE LADY'S FRIEND, for October,
is unusually interesting and attractive,
and cannot fail to please all who are for
tunate enough to possess it. Price
(witii engraving) $2,50 a year; Four
copies (with one engraving) $O.OO.
One copy of Lady's Friend and one of
Saturday Evening Post (and one en
graving), $4.00. Address Deacon & Pe
terson, 319 Walnut Street, Philadel

SABBATH SCHOOL Pic NlC.—About
four months since, a few persons, anx
ious for the glory of the Redeemer and
for the good of those around them, es
tablished a Union Sabbath School at
Maj. Burns' School House, in Juniata
Tp. Into this school about forty chil
dren have been gathered, many of
whom never saw such a school before.
Under the Superintendency of Mr.
McKinney, the school has pros|>ered.
The attendance of the scholars has been
regular and a good work is evidently
being done.
For the benefit of the scholars, a Pic
Nic was given on Thursday, Sept. 19th.,
in a shady grove, near the School
House. As the day was fair, the sur
roundings inviting, the scene novel,
: old and young appeared on the ground
| at an early hour, prepared for the en
j joyment of the day.
Seats were arranged for the School
and a stand erected for the Speakers.
The exercises soon opened with singing
and prayer. School addresses were
then delivered by Rev's X. H.Skyles,
and J. H. Donaldson. After which
those present gathered around the ta
ble so plentifully spread by the friends
of the school, and when all were fed,
there were taken up of fragments some
baskets-full.
When the provisions were discussed,
"the children of larger and smaller
growths," scattered about among the
trees to spend the day as circumstances
and inclination might suggest.

main are but "dust and ashes," it is sol

Resolved , By Saxton Lodge, No. 272
I. O. of G. T., of which the deceased

ity and ourselves.
Resolved , That the family of the de

pathy in 'his their bereavement, and

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.—The bank
barn of Mr. D. Gochenour, in Union
township, was struck by lightning, on
the evening of the 20th inst. It was
burned to the ground, with all Mr.
G's. grain and hay, a new buggy, and
all his harness. Loss estimated over
three thousand dollais. No insurance.
FOR SALE CHEAP.—Four large ten
plate stoves, suitable for Church or
School House. Inquire of John G.
Minnich, or 11. Nicodemus.
WE call the attention of our readers
to the advertisement of H. D. Slagle &

FAIR. —Persons who purpose attend
ing the Fair, next week, should re
member that at It. W. Berkstresser A
Co.'s, on Juiianna St., is the place to
purchase cheap and durable goods.
J. M. SHOEMAKER has just received
the largest stock of new goods brought
to Bedford this season. Read his ad
vertisement, under head of "New Ad
vertisements."
•
NEW DISCOVERY.—Our friend T. R.
Gettys has discovered a new process of
photographing which enables him to
take fine pictures for the low price of
25 cents. See his advertisement in an
other column.
GRAY HAIRS may not mar one's good
looks and in many cases even improve
the appearance, but as a general rule
are considered objectionable and many
devices are resorted to to prevent or get
ril of them. We know of no mode so
little troublesome or objectionable as
the use of Ring's Vegetable Ambrosia,
an article which of late has become so
immensely popular as a toilet article
and beautitier. It is easily applied, re
stores gray or faded hair, prevents, and
in many cases cures baldness, cleanses
the scalp and leaves the hair in splendid
condition for arranging.

pilgrim has reached her eternal home, and now

Thy head upon my breast."
