IV. Maclay Hall's letter to W. Mac

W. Maclay Hall's letter can tie seen in
last week's Bedford County Press.
The correspondence is mutually inter
esting to'both.
Two young men of this county, were
placed in "durance vile" the other

might have "saved their bacon" by
letting that of their neighbors alone.
The Blair county Radicals voted on
the "Crawford County System" last

On the second page of our paper
will be found another interesting letter
from our Philadelphia correspondent.
"Linden" promises to treat our read

A lady toid us, the other day, that

No wonder. She is now anxious to
hear "Mistress Jenks of Madison

The hog nuisance needs abating in
this Borough. We learn of a uurnber

March seems determined to keep up
the reputation of being a stormy
month. The wind whistles wildly
round our ears, making frail humani
ty, and in fact, frail structures of every
description, tremble. According tothe
old theory, if March comes in like a
roaring lion, she'll go out calm as a
calf.
NEW CHURCHES.— Last Wednesday,
at a meeting of the members of the
Reformed congregation of Fiahertown,
they resolved to build a new church at
that place.
Ou last Friday at a similar meeting
held at St. Clairsville, a resolution was
passed to build a new Reformed church
near the old Union church.
Tiiere are also efforts being made to
build a Lutheran church in Union tp.,
on the lands of Moses Goughenour.
The best place to buy boots and
iiioea, is at the Regular's, No. 2 An
derson's Row—also queensware, gro
ceries, notions, Ae., together with an
assortment of nice things not necessary
to mention.
CANARY BIRDS, (good singers; cages,
seeds, Ac., for sale at Heckerman's drug
store.
THE RAILROAD.—WO cannot urge
too strongly the importance of speedy
action upon a subject so vital so the
interests of this community. All
around us the country is grid-ironed
by railroads, followed by enterprise
and improvements, while we are left
to linger in the slow old method of an
age gone by. We have nobody to
blame but ourselves. It is said that
Providence only helps those who help
themselves. Let us show by our ma
terial aid in the shape of handsome
subscriptions, that we are in earnest in
this matter and the road will be built
beyond a question. A number of our
citizens have subscribed liberally.
Let others do likewise, and the work
will go on.
FIRE COMPANY.— At last we are to
have something tangible in the shape
of a Fire Company in this town. The
young men have taken hold of the
matter. On last Monday evening a
meeting was held in the Grand Jury
room, aud the Vigilance Fire Compa
ny was brought into existence by
the election of H. J. King as President,
J. A. Nicodemus, Vice Presideut, J. N.
Alsip, Secretary and J. K. Smith,
Treasurer. Subsequent meetings will
be held to perfect the organization of
the coin puny. The young men at the
head of this movement are determined
that tiie thing shall be a success, and
we hope erelong tube able to chronicle
the fact that we have an efficient fire
company in Bedford.
THE LATEST FASHIONS. —March first
was "opening day" ill New York with
the Milliners and modistes and the va
rious establishments are thronged ac
cordingly with fashionable fair ones in
pursuit of new styles, Ac. The bonnet
of the coming season, it seems, is to be
smaller than the one now in vogue,
with little trimming at the sides, and
no striugs. A new style of round hat
Is called the Roseland. It is made of
fancy straw without a brim, high in
the centre with a loop of green satin
on cne side, and white lace, edged with
greet, satin ribbon, falling at the back.
Prices take a wide range, say all the
way frcrn $lO to $45. Small capes are
to be th* prevailing style. Black silk
saeques br street wear areloosly fitting
in the back, extending a little below the
belt; thefrut is a trifle deeper, while it
is narrow 01 the shoulders and open un
der the arm,being joined by the belt.
The trimming is of satin folds and
black lace edgng.
BEDFORD HA L ROAD,— The under
signed eominitte°, appointed to obtain
subscriptions, have done up to this
time, what they deemed test to accom
plish their work. Some citizens have
. done their duty ; some have half done
it, and others have not done it at all,
Upon this latter clas. particularly, the
responsibility rests of defeating, what
they all acknowledge to be, otr only
help as a thriving community. No
more persuasion is to be made se of
with those who ought, af once, to em
brace the only opportunity, perhaps,
they will ever have, of making their
own neighborhood what it ought to
be. The grading and bridging will
not cost above $70,000.00, as ascertained
by actual survey and calculation. One
half ofthis sum can be easily raised by
the people of Bedford. If this is done,
the other half can be raised outside of
Bedford, and the road put under con
tract this coining spring. The com
mittee are no more interested in this
than any other individuals. The books
are still open at the Prothonotary's of
fice, and it remains to be seen whether
our citizens will allow our town and
vicinity to become dried up, and the
Bedford Springs get to be nowhere , or,
whether we shall rival Altoona and
Saratoga. Upon our own people, at
this particular time, these things de
pend.
