Til K Inquirer of last week says of on r
Court meeting: "It was the most mis
erable failure we have ever known
them to have during any Court." A
little further on in the same article, it
says, "the meeting was held in the
Court House ; the room was full." A
"miserable failure" and a "room full"
wont harmonize. Do it some more so.
THE " water-melon shadow from
Sehellsburg" will prove to be the "sha
dow of death" to the Radicals. Look
out for the Democratic locomotive!
SABBATH SCHOOL CELEBRATION.—
Mr. Editor:— Asyou request local items
from different parts of the county, we
comply with your request and hope
this may find a place in your worthy
paper. On Saturday, Sept. 5, thecitizens
of New Paris held their first sabbath
school celebration, and it reflected great
credit on all concerned. At an early
hour thecitizens and children conven
ed at the church, which was beautiful
ly decorated with wreaths and ever
greens, and presented a pleasing sight.
All seemed deeply interested. The
school is composed of ninety sehol
lars and there were in all present at the
exhibition, over two hundred persons.
The officers of the school arranged their
respective classes in order, when they
were addressed by Rev. J. P. Tall helm
and Rev. W. J. Statler, upon the util
ity of sabbath schools, after which they
formed a procession, bearing banners
and other devices, to a beautiful grove,
where a large table groaned beneath
the weight of the comforts of life, ex
hibiting tire taste and skill of the la
dies of New Paris and vicinity, in
crowning the festal board with cakes,
pies, fowls and other edibles and del
icacies of the season. The people then
surrounded the table, and after invo
king the blessing of Almighty God,
partook with a hearty good will until
all were satisfied. Long live the ladies
for their hospitality on the occasion.

UNION SABBATIISCHOOL CELEBRA
TION' IN COI.ERAIN TP. —On Saturday
Sept sth, the parents and scholars of
our Sabbatii school, met at the Trans
Run M. E. Church, and after singing
and prayer, were formed into line by
their efficient superintendent, S. H.
Hunt, and marched in procession to
the beautiful sugar grove near the
house of Loenard Shatter. On reach
ing the grove our eyes beheld what we
never shall forget, namely, baskets in
profusion were filled with the choicest
delicacies; a table was there to receive
the bountiful provisions, and a large
vessel filled with the delicious com
pound of lemons, sugar and water to
slake the thirst of the multPude. Af
ter enjoying several excellent pieces of
music discoursed by the singing class,
we received the welcome plaudit,
"Come all ye to the table and partake
of the fruits of our labor," which we
did with a will. When the feast of
good things was over, the attention of
all present, young and old, was direc
ted to social games of enjoyment. All
went "merry as a marriage bell," un
til the bright sun nearing the horizon
gave warning of departing day, when
thecrovvd dispersed highly pleased with
the entertainment in which they had
participated. RURAL.
TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. —BURSTING
OF A BOILER.— Four men killed. —We
arc called upon to chronicle one of the
most terrible accidents that ever hap
pened in this county. On Friday last,
a.t cuaiuaie, as James L. Prince and
son, the engineer, the fireman and an
other man were about to get on an en
gine to go to Saxton, the boiler burst
and almost instantly killed four of the
party. Several of the unfortunate be
ings were blown quite a distance. The
son of Mr. Prince was seriously,
though not fatally, injured.
DEATH OF JAMES L. PRINCE, ESQ. —
We feel pained to record the sudden
and violent death of this esteemed
friend, by the terrible accident which
occured at Coal dale, last Friday. Mr.
Prince was a highly respected citizen
of Haxton, where he had resided for a
number of years. A true friend, a kind
father and a devoted husband, the
family circle from which he has been
so suddenly torn, will keenly mourn
his loss, and the community will real
ize that it has lost one of its most val
uable citizens.

FECI, IN A WELL.—On last Saturday
night a horse belonging to Mr. David
Gardner, of this place, fell into an un
finished well about twenty feet deep.
Strange to say the horse was taken out
without receiving any injury, except
a few scratches about the head which
he received in the descent. The lower
part of the well had caved in, leaving
ing a space of about twelve feet which
enabled him to move about. The ani
imal evidently hail been playing "fell
in the well," and got in so deep that it
required a good many to "help him
out."

The deceased had been insured for that
sum only one year. Thus, again, do
we see the great advantages arising
from life insurance.

POCKET PICKED.—The keeper of
one of the "side shows" which were in
town last week, while under thestupe

OBITUARY—It is with feeiings of profound
sotrow we arc again called upon to notice the
death of one who was well known not only to the
citizens of this and the adjoining counties, bnt
throughout Pennsylvania, and to pay a small
tribute to his mem >ry. GEN. WM R SMITH
died at Quincy, Ills , on the 22nd ult., 'dull of
years and full of honours."—He was born at the
I'rappe. Montgomery Co., Pa., on the 31st day of
August, 1787. and consequently was nearly eigh
ty-one years of age. He was the grandson of
William Smith, I) D., the first Provost of the I'ni
versity of Pennsylvania, in Philadelphia, and by
whom Huntingdon was laid out. llis Father,
IVm. Moore Smith, an eminent lawyer of Phila
delphia. had been appointed to settlo some claims
under Jay's celebrated treaty with England, and
accordingly, in 1803, he accompanied him to that
country where he remained about a year.—After
his return ho studied law in Philadelphia, and
was there admitted to the bar. Here he also mar
ried. and in 1808, removed to the town of Hun
tingdon. where, by his talents, he soon distin
guished himself in his profession, and during his
long residence here was frequently called to till
places ot trust and responsibility. He represented
this county for many years in our State Legisla
ture, both in the House of Representatives and
Senate, and was one of the most efficient advocates
of our then projected system of State improve
ments—canals and rnilways. Ever devoted to lit
erature, fiis leisure hours were occupied by fur
nishing contributions which are to be found scat
tered in many of the publications of the day Fol
lowing the bent of his inclination, he commenced
in 1810, the publication of a literary magazine
called the '-Huntingdon Museum," which was ed
ited by himself and his friend, the late Moses Ca
uan, Esq. This was considered at that day quite
an enterprise, as it was the first magazine pub
lished west of the Susquehanna river, which, how
ever, was only continued for about a year, when
it was suspended, owing to a want of sufficient en
couragement.
He was a prominent member of the Masonic or
der, and. if we mistake not, was the first Master
of'Mouut Moriah Lodge," established in this
pi nee.
In 1827, Gen. Smith removed with his family
from this place to the adjoining county of Bedford,
where he still continued to practice his profession.
At the Presidential election in 1836, he wes chos
en one of the Presidential Electors for the State,
and in the following year was appointed by Presi
dent Van Buren one of the commissioners "to ne
gotiate a treaty with the Chippewa Indians, on
the upper Mississippi.
In the Fall of 1838. ho removed with his family
to Mineral Point, in the then Territory of Wiscon
sin Here his services were soon called into requi
sition as Adjutant General, in organizing the Mi
litia, and the duties of this office he continued to
discharge for several years. Eleeted as a mem
ber of the first convention to frsme a constitution
for a State Government, in 1846, he took a leading
and active part in its debates; but this constitu
tion failed in being ratified by the people, owing
t„ f..,; n it considered objectionable.
Subsequently another convention was called, and
a Constitution frame.', which received the appro
bation of the people in 1848, in which most of the
State officers were made elective by the people of
the State. Under it Gen. Smith ivas elected to
the office of Attorney General, the duties of which
he discharged satisfactorily during his term ot of
fice. Whilst engaged at the seat of Government,
he projected the formation of a State Historical
Society, which is now in full success and may be
considered firmly established. Already several
thousand books, pamphlets and paintings have
been collected, and as President of the Wisconsin
Historical Society, Gen. Smith was devoted to its
interests until the day of his death.
The Legislature of the State having also direct
ed that a history of Wisconsin should be written
ere the material now at hand should be lost, Gov.
Farwell, in 1852, accordingly appointed General
Smith to execute the task How laboriously he
applied himself to it, is evinced by the two vol
umes already published by the Legislature in 1854.
As age advanced upon him ho gradually retired
from the duties of his profession, and spent his
time in his library, surrounded by his books, or
enj tying the social conversation of his friends.
His reading extended through every branch of
literature, and being gifted with an extraordinari
ly retentive memory, and fine conversational pow
ers. he gave a charm to the social circle, and af
forded instruction and pleasure to both young
and old. His lnentai faculties remained clear and
unclouded to the last, and without disease he sank
to rest merely from old age, surrounded by a part
of his family and friends. He leaves a large num
ber of children and grandchildren in this State,
Illinois and Wisconsin.
His remains were taken to Mineral Point, Wis.,
and there interred by a large concourse of rela
tives and friends, and of the masonic order, of
which he was during life an active and honoured
member. W.

IRON MOUNTAIN
RAILROAD COMPANY'S Seven per cent,
first Mortgage Bonds. February and August
Coupons. The earnings of the completed road to
Pilot Knob arc now more than the interest on the
entire mortgage. The proceeds of theso bonds aro
adding to the security every day. Over $8,000,-
000 have been spent on the property, and not ov
er $2,000,000 of bonds issued thus far. The con
stantly increasing traffic of carrying ore, with the
prospect of controling all the travel from St. Lou
is to the Southern States, insures an enormous
revenue. The Directors own 8-10 of the stock for
investment, and are interested to enrich the prop
erty as well as to economize its expenses.
THOS. ALLEN, President, St. Loui3, Mo.
Wo, the undersigned, cordially recommend
these seven per cent, mortgage bonds, of the St.
Louis and Iron Mountain Railroad, as a good se
curity. The revenue of the road will be large,
and the administration of the affairs of the Com

entitled to the greatest confidence of the public.

What a wonder
That the doors
Are open wide;
Ever since the
First of August
Thousands have
PaiD Paint applied.
Those who lie.
Or call it humbug,
Are the doctors,
Not acquaint;
For they always
Have becu jealous
When their patients
Use Pain Paint.
Pile up facts
As high as mountains,
Flash the truth
Before their eyes,
But the cry
is always humbug,
Men of science
Full of lies.
People know that liniments composed of Cay
enne pepper, turpentine, hartshorn, ether, Ac.,
will produce inflammation and pain To purchase
such trash to stop Pain and Inflammation is ridicu
lous. Fire will not stop heat; a dumb bruto
shuns the beat, and knows enough to wade in a
pond of water, when wounded, to reduce, cool,
and euro Inflammation and Fever
Pimps and gamblers try to look honest, but
folks can read tho face too plainly. Some try to
persuade the ignorant that pills, physic, Ac.,
cleanse the blood, purge the system, and do a
hundred other rhings equally absurd. Every
body knows that it is false, and that no medicine
can purify or increase a drop of blood. Food
makes blood, bone, and muscle, and is the Staff of
Life. Every dose of medicine swallowed is reject
ed. and hurried out of the system as quick as pos
sible. It is an enemy ; yea, a deadly foe. Con
stipation, ill health, and weakness, are tho result
of dosing, dosing, dosing the stomach.—The living
system has enough to do without working herself
to doath in expelling and kicking out tho perni
cious nostrums poured down tho throat. Food
she welcomes when she needs it; yea, asks for it.
Let pill makers and physic venders stop eating
food, and see how long they can subsist on tbeir
blood-purifying, invigorating, health-giving med
icines and cordials. What humbug is more trans
parent ? A dog would feel so insulted, if offered
a doge, he would curl his tail downward in scorn,
and run away in utter disgust. All physical pain
arises from inflammation. Put out the fire and you
stop pain absolutely. You can stop pain as easy
as you can quench fire with water. WOLCOTT'S
PAIN PAINT suldues inflammation, heat, and fe
ver one hundred times faster than ice. Thousands
have had a practical test of its merits at the very
moment o*'most extreme pain and they can testi
fy that it has not failed in doing its work. It is
simple ;it is harmless, it has no stain ; it gives no
smart; it is for sale by Druggists everywhere ; and
it is tested free of cost at 170 CHATHAM SQUARE,
N. Y., and 622 Arch Street. Philadelphia
My wife had an ulcer on her leg for thirteen
years, caused by varicose veins, ulceration extend
ing from her ankle to her knee, some places eating
away to the hone. I have employed over twenty
physicians at vast expense during this period.
But all attempts at cure proved utterfy abortive
until I tried Dr. Wolcott's Pain Paint, wbieh the
doctors told me was a humbug. But humbug or
not, it has done the work completely in less than
one month, removing the pain at the first applica
tion. I kept her leg wet with Pain Paint con
stantly until healed. I wish we had more hum
bugs as usetul as Dr, Wolcott's Pain Paint. lam
well known in this city any person who wants to
make further inquiry will call at 101 West Street,
New Y'ork. at the Hanover House, of which I am
the proprietor, and I think I can satisfy them as
to the benefit derived by the use of Pain Paint.
May 12, 1868. PETER MINCK.
I am selling Wolcott's Pain Paint and Annihila
tor, and it certainly gives satisfaction to my cus
tomers.
