STREET PREACHING. —On last Sun
day afternoon, Rev. Bishop Gates,
(colored), held forth to a "large and
enthusiastic audi nee" in front of the
Union School house, on Juliana street.
The "extinguished privilege" of hear
ing the Bishop is not often enjoyed by
the good people of Bedford, and hence,
without much "previousnotice given,"
the novelty of an out-door sermon at
tracted quite a large crowd. Two of
the "Deacons" passed the hat, and as
the "stamps" dropped in, the voice of
the "old man eloquent" suddenly rose,
and in the midst of a beautiful pero
ration he exclaimed, "that's right,
help the old man along!" And the
"congregation" came down liberally.
After "renouncing the benediction,"
the Bishop that on next
Sunday week, his voice would again
be heard "at the usual time and place."
THE STING OF THE LOCUST.— There
is a difference of opinion among men
who profess to be familiar with the'ci
cada as to whether its sting is poison
ous. From the following article pub
lished in the Reading Daily Dispatch,
it would appear that the sting of this
insect is poisonous. On last Wednes
day Miss Elizabeth Gambler, residing
near the Temple station, on the East
Pennsylvania railroad, caught a locust—
the tirst she had seen—and was exhibit
ing it to her mother, when it stung
•her in the hand. The sting caused her
much pain, and its poisonous effects ran
through her whole system, from the
effects of which she died on Saturday
evening. Miss Gambler was a very
amiable young lady of eighteen years
of age.
The same paper from which the a
bove is copied contains the following:
"Mrs. Ream, wifeof Frederick Ream,
residing on Washington street, was
yesterday stung in the back of the neck
by a locust. The wound immediately
com menced swelling, and fears were
entertained for Mrs. It's life. The fol
lowing remedies were applied, and she
is now out of danger : A young chick
en was killed and gutted, and the flesh
applied to the wound. In about an
hour the poison was absorbed by the
flesh of the chicken, which presented a
greenish appearance."
THE new Pension bill, now before
Congress, provides that where a pen
sion is granted to the relatives of a de
ceased person, it shall he paid—first, to
the mother ; second, to the father ;
and, thirdly, to the orphan brothers
and sisters, who shall be pensioned
jointly, if there be more than one. In
the case of brothers and sisters, the
pepsion is to cease upon the youngest
one's becoming sixteen years of age.
In the case of the remarriage of a
widow or dependent mother, the pen
sion is to he paid from the death of
the husband or son up to the time of
the remarriage..
RUNAWAY.— One day last week, a
horse attached a to buggy containing
John C. Wright and another gentle
man, ran away on East Pitt street,
throwing out both riders, and travel
ing at a rate inconsistent with our bor
ough ordiuances"in such case made and
provided." "Nobody hurt" much,
except the buggy which insisted on be
ing in too close proximity to the
horse's heels.
NEW STORE ROOM AND NEW
STORE. —Fisher & Burns have fitted
up a large and commodious store room
in the old Postoflice Building, one
door west of the Bedford Hotel, where
they have just opened and have on ex
hibition a large aud varied assortment
of Dry-Goods, Boots and Shoes, No
tions, Groceries, Ac., Ac., which they
will sell at the lowest prices. See their
advertisinent in another column.

A FTNK SUMMER.— It is stated as a
proved proverb that "when the oak is
in leaf before the ash, it is sure to beto
ken a dry summer." This spring be
ing an illustration of the fact indicates
that our present sumhier wilPbe a fine
one; which will be consoling, as hav
ing been so near drowning out, it will
be a variety to endure a dry up.
LADIES' FASHIONS. —From various
Fashion reports we tind that a uni
form color is the great desideratum
now in a stylish costume. A costume
complete in one color, and not in one
color only, but in one shade of one
color, requires genius, patience, judg
ment, and tine artistic taste.
THE German Reformed congrega
tions of the Huntingdon charge, have
tendered Rev. Mr. Heilman, of Bed
ford county, the pastorship of their

IT has just been decided by the courts
of Pennsylvania that a rrftirried woman

REASONS WHY.
We are enabled to offer superior inducements to
purchasers of clothing, to which your attention
is respectfully invited.
We have n business experience of more than
years, have been longer established than any
house in our trade in Philadelphia.
We employ sufficient'cnpital to make ALL PUR
CHASES FOR CASH, which, together with the
fact that our large business enables us to buy in
large amounts in first hands, thereby saving all
profits of jobbers and middlemen, give us ad
vantages in purchasing at tbe lowest rates,
SHARED BV .NO HOUSE IN OUR TRADE.
We sell only for cash and having no losses from bad
debts to provide for, the paying customer is not
TAXED TO KELP PAV THE DEBT OF ANOTHER who
does not pay, as is inevitably the case in a busi
ness where credit is given.
We employ the best talent in all departments,
which, with long experience, enable us to man
ufacture garments SUPERIOR IN EVERY RES
PECT — equalled by fw —surpassed by none.
We have the largest establishment for the manu
facture and sale of clothing in Phila lelphia,
extending through from 518 Market street to
511 Minor street, occupied exclusively by our
selves, also a branch store at 600 Broadway,
.New York, and keep at all times of
MEN'S, YOUTH'S and BOYS' READY-MADE
CLOTHING, the largest stock and best assort
ment in the city, from which any person can be
accurately fitted at once, as well, orbetter, than
by garments made to order, our large stock
comprising every size of all styles of goods.
We have recently added to our previous stock a
full assortment of
CHILDREN'S GARIBALDI AND OTHER
SUITS, equal to any in the city in style, trim
ming, and make; whieh are sold at lower pri
ces than have hitherto been known in Phila
delphia. They, with all our Boys' and Youth's
goods, are kept on the first floor, nearest the
front, convenient for ladies. We have also re
cently opened on our SECOND B'LOOR A
CUSTOM DEPARTMENT for the display of a
choice selection of Foreign and Domestic Fa
brics in the piece, which will be MADE UP TO OR
DER, in the best style, by competent and skill
ful cutters and workmen. Tbe advantage of
dealing with a CASH HOJSK will be especially
apparent in this department, upon a compari
son of prices.
We guarantee our prices lower than the lowest
elsewhere and also guarantee full satisfaction to
every purchaser, and request, that should any
cause of dissatisfaction exist with a purchase
made, it may be reported to us, pledging our
selves, by exchange, refunding of money, or oth
erwise, to give full satisfaction in every case.
(Humpies and prices seat by mail when desired.)
An examination of our stock respectfully re
quested and your patronage, if the above state
ment of facts be satisfactorily demonstrated.
