ors are the most virtuous of men.

David Patterson, Esq., a highly re
spectable citizen of Bedford tp., died
last week.
It is almost next to impossible to get
coal -hipped over thisend of the Broad
Top road. Who's to blame ?
A neighboring editor lands a near
relative of bis who "once upon a time"
served as a county officer. It's all in
the family.
Simon says, "wiggle waggle," and
the members of the Legislature wiggle
waggle for John Scott lor I'. S. Sena
tor. Simon and the Central area pow
er in this state.
There are several schools in this
county in which the co-education of
the races is going on. Truly, we are
"progressing" according to the Radi
cal idea.
A lot of "manhoods" of this place
were determined to get up a razor row
the other night. Too much benzine
was the cause.
It is not correct, as is generally sup
posed, that publishers of newspapers
can live without being paid for their
labor. Neither do they all steal for a
living. We- hope our friends in arrears
will take the hint.
To be properly fitted with boots and
shoes, of the best makes, the place to
get them is at tho Regulator's, No. 2,
Anderson's Row: also the largest as
sortment of queensware, glassware,
groceries, notions, Ac.,always on hand
to select from.
There will he a partial eclipse of the
moon on the evening of the 17th of
January, which will be visible in the
United States. It will begin at 7 o'-
clock and 20 minutes, and end at! o'-
clock and 45 minutes.
An exchange says: Our jail is full,
and guards are on duty at night either
to prevent the inmates from escaping,
or to prevent others from trying to get
in." That must be a healthy place to
live in.
For good, cheap and a select assort
ment of ready-made clothing, cloths,
eat--i meres, vestings, hats and caps,
gents'furnishing goods, etc.,
W. Rerkstresser's clothing emporium,
one door wt -1 of the Washington Ho
tel.
PJ J. F i: Rixo P< IFETRV.— Thomas
Pales, a descendant of Ham, not hav
ing the fear of the Commandments be
fore his eyes, visited a neighbor's hen
roost with intent felonious. He has a
weakness for good conditioned poultry,
and, espying two plump ones, which
his eyes coveted and his stomach crav
ed, he converted them to his sole use
and benefit. This being contrary to
the act of assembly in such case made
aad provided, a constable visited
Thomas and asked liiin to appear be
fore a magistrate. Thomas, being a
little chicken-hearted, and expecting
new honors, kindly consented. The
J ustiee, with due deference to Thomas'
ingenuity, insisted that higher honors
awaited him. to reap which Thomas
gave his bond to appear before the
Honorable Court at the nest term.
MALICIOVS MISCHIEF.— David Iru
ler, Levi Imler, Ephraim Imler and
Henry Imler, four young men residing
in Bedford tp., were conceived of an
idea that it was th<-ir religious duty, as
good citizens, to throw stones at the
doraicil of their neighbor, Jacob Fritz,
and accordingly they set themselves
heartily to work at the aforesaid busi
ness on the night of the dUth ult. —
Fritz protested against such conduct,
and in due time, Constable Fetter
brought these stone throwing youths
la-fore Justice Nicodemus, who upon
hearing the ease, dismissed Ephraim
and Henry, and held David and Levi
in *doo each to answer at the next term
o( court. Throwing stones at an inof
fensive old man may be good pastime
in some localities, but the law arid or
der-loving citizens of Bedford town
ship will not permit the perpetrators
of such outrages to go unwhipt of jus
tice.
THE NEW FURNACE.— The work at
J lie new furnace at Riddlesburg is pro
gressing rapidly, notwithstanding the
unpropitioiu weather we have had.
Mr. Worden, the Superintendent, is a
gentleman of great energy and perseve
rance, and proves himself to he the
"right man in the right place."
DEATH OF DAVID POINTS, ESQ.—
We forgot to notice ihe sudden death
of this estimable citizen of Red ford tp.,
last week. Mr. Points was an honest,
upright citizen, and his loss will be
felt by the community in which he
lived. Jie was an acting Justice of
the Peace at the time of his death.
Is OFFICE.—The County Auditors
were in session last week and attended
to their yearly duties. M. A. iunter,
ESQ., the new memDer of the board,
was present. Mr. IfLUterisa shrewd
business man, and makes a splendid
officer.
A SHAW AND CLARK $2.7 Sewing
Machine (in good order) for sale. En
quire at this office. jul3tf.
FILUXFI THEJCHY WHEEL.— Last
week the Jury Coministiioners met to
fill the jury wheel for the year ISC9.
The Act of 1867 makes it the duty of
the "jury commissioners, president
judge, or additional law judge, of the
respective district, or a majority of
them, to meet at the scat of justice of
the respective counties, and thereupon
proceed with due diligence, to select
alternately, from the whole qualified e
lectors," such number as may be desig
nated by the court, of "sober, intelli
gent and judicious persons to serve as
jurors" during the year. Isaac Ken
singer, one of the commissioners being
absent, Judge King and William Kirk,
theother cotnmisioner, proceeded to fill
the wheel. Five hundred and two
names were placed in the wheel.—
These were apportioned among the sev
eral districts of the county, according
to the number of ekvtors at the late
election. Thus, Colerain with four
ti nies the number of electors that Schells
burghas, would get four times the num
ber of jurors, or 20 too. In drawing the
jurors the commissioners are assisted
by the sheriff. The first twenty four
names drawn are Grand Jurors, one of
whom is selected by the jury commis
sioners to act as foreman. Then thirty
eight arc drawn as Petit Jurors. Per
sons who prefer serving as Grand Jur
ors will thus see that the commis
sioners and sheriff cannot control tho
matter, but that it is all a thing of
chance as to who comes out first.

PRISONERS PARDONED.— Among the
list of pardons, accompanying the Gov
ernor's message, we find the following
cases from this county. The reasons
assigned by the (Governor were no
doubt set forth in the petition to "His
Excellency," and upon these the par.
don was granted:
Jam?* Key , Bedford county, Feb. 10,
1007. "Assault and Battery.'''' Three
years and one month in the Western
Penitentiary. Pardoned March 29, up
on recommendations from Hon. John
c„"na, S. L Russet!, J. Mower,
Thomas Hughes, F. Benedict, M. A.
Points, John Harris, and many others,
who aver that the testimony did not
justify the conviction ; the prisoner had
previously sustained a good character j
and having suffered an imprisonment
of more than a year the ends of justice
had been achieved.
Isaac Sha/cr, Bedford county, Sept. •">,
18(57. " Larceny ." Five years in the
Western Penitentiary. Pardoned Feb,
27. Recommended by the president
judge and district attorney, Hon. John
Cessna, E. F. Kerr, A. IJ. Ivoontz, S.
M. Barclay, A. S. Russell, O. E.
Shannon, and many more. Reasons:
Shafer was seventy fiveyearsold, and in
declining health ;a monomaniac on the
subject of horse stealing and promised,
if released, to ex pose an extensive gang
of horse thieves, and make other im
portant disclosures.
The promise to "expose and make,
other important disclosures" has never
been carried out. Why this hits not
been done we are unable to say.
A SCHOOL MONTH.— The Pennsylva
nia School Journal gives the following
as the law fixing a school month :
"That twenty-two days shall be held
to l>e a school month, and that two
.Saturdays in each month, as the prop- j
er board shall designate, which two
Saturdays shall be held to be a part of
the school month, may at the discre
tion, and by an affimrative vo e of a ma
jority ofall the members of the Board
of Directors, or Controllers, be appro
priated to institutes for the improve
ment of the teachers of the said district:
Provided , That in districts in which
the schools are, or shall be, kept open,
and in operation, the maximum term
now allowed by law, and the teachers
employed by the year, the foregoing
clause as to the number of days in the
school shall not apply any further than
that the reports and statistics of the
school shall be kept in accordance there- j
with, and that District Institutes may
be held as thereby directed ; all acts or
parts of acts, inconsistent herewith, be
and are hereby repealed.
THE PUBLIC DEBT INC REASE.— The
statement of the public debt on Janua
ry Ist, just issued by the Secretary of
the Treasury, compared with the previ
ous statement, rendered December 1,
shows an increase for the month of De
cember last of I ,GG7,3*>7. The total
debt, less cash in the treasury, is given
at $2/> 10,707,iXi1. The cash in the treas
ury stood : coin, ♦fis,76#,3Cß; currency
Total cash on hand, #lll,-

The latest ring is the ring of the !
Mexican dollar. Juarez and his Con
gress are not sitting with closed doors,
and Rosecrans in the midst of them for
nothing. Our peace man is going into
real estate, but considering the low
state of the finances and what hard
work Russia had to shame the Alaska
money out of us, and how Denmark
hasn't been able these throe years past
to get within gun-shot of the seven
millions and a half promised for St.
Thomas, it would he as well to in
termit this business till we have our
accounts all straight and can pay for

7, lsS9. after a somewhat protracted illnesq David
Patterson, Esq., aged 73 years, 4 months and 24
days. For So years he had been a member of the
Presbyterian Church, of this place, which he liber
ally supported, and regularly attended, when
health permitted. He was kind to the poor, a good
neighbor, a worthy citizen, and an humble chris
tian. A son and three daughters, all married, sur
vive to mourn his departure.
LYONS—After a protracted illness, borne with
the most saintly patience, Mrs. Mary C. Lyons,
nee O'Hara, consort of the late Nicholas Lyons,
merchant of this place, departed this life on the
morning of the .'ird of January, 1569, at her resi
i dence in Bedford, in her 6*tb year The deceased
was born and raised in Pittsburgh, but spent all
her married life in Bedford She was a member
' of the distinguished O'Hara family, so connected
with the beginnings, growth ar.d prosperity of
Pittsburgh. Mrs. Lyons was a christian lady in
tbe most exalted sense. Her appearance and gen
eral manner were truly dignified—and indicated
a noble and lofty soul; but her moral virtues were
her brightest ornaments. Whilst she charmed,
by her grace, people of the world, the pious found
in her unostentatious virtues, matter of edification
and example. She was profoundly religious— de
vout without affectation. She was respected and
loved by all ber neighbors. She was Itind gnd
merciful to tbe poor, tbe widow and the orphan.
No one was more beloved by the members of ber
household —her domestics—and sueh was her chari
ty that she had always on hands some poor friend
less one to maintain in her house, for whom she
: src'l provided, both temporally and spiritually.
She is goiu t.. receive her exceeding great reward
from Him who acknowledges as done to Himself
whatever His charitable disciples do for their
needy fellow-creatures.
••Then the just will answer Him ; when did we
see Thee a stranger and take thee ID ?or naked
uud did cover Thee ' or when did wc see Thee
sick ( And the Jvtng will answer; as long as you
did it to one of the least of these my brethren,
ye did it to M E - : M ATT -37 v. It n from the
recollection of these high christian virtues and
from her pi >u* and happy death, she having re
ceived most seasonably and fervently all the rites
and sacraments of the Church, that her bereaved
children and numerous sorrowing friends draw
tboje ...or. es of .hope and consolation which must
dry up their tears; and make thorn teel a well groun
ded assurance that God hath only taken back his
own. lent to us on earth, for a time, and that her a
bode this day is in Zion and that the beautiful pray
er of the Church, at her obsequies, will be heard in
her regard. -'.May the martyrs receive thee at
thy coining and bring thee to the Holy city of
Jerusalem and mavest thou have eternal rest

MCSICAT. Dotsos.—Since Mr. Waters gave up
I publishing sheet music, be has devoted his whole
capital and attention to the manufacture and sale
of Pianos and Melodeons. lie has just issued a
catalogue of his new instruments, giving a new
scale of prices, which shows a marked reduction
from former rates, and bis Pianos have recently
been awarded the first Premium at several Fairs.
Many people of the present day. who are attract
ed, it not confused, with the flaming adeer'.ise
mentsof rival piano houses, probably overlook tbo
modest manufacturer like Mr. Waters; but we
happen to khow that his instruments earned him a
good reputation long before Expositions and "bon-,
ors" connected therewith were ever thought of;
indeed, we have one cf Mr. Waters' Pianofortes
now in our residence (where it has stood for many
years.) of* which any manufacturer in the world
might well be proud. We have always been de
lighted with it as a sweet-toned and powerful in
strument, and there is no doubt of its durability ;
more than this, some of the best amateur players
in the city, as well as several celebrated pianists,
have perroriacd on the same piano, ami all pro
noun,.e it a superior and instrument.
