Cumberland claims a population ol
15,000.
Go to Grouse's for a mixture to keep
moths out of woolen goods. It does
not soil them.
The events of to-day have more in
terest than those of yesterday. For this
reason men are fast giving up books for
newspapers.
The Times, of Cumberland, says that
it is expected that the whole of the
Pittsburg A Oonnellsville Railroad will
be completed the coming summer.
On last Saturday the Free Masons
*old their house and lot, on the corner
of Pitt and Richard streets, to William
Hartley, Esq., for $3,151.

Two of the typos of the Somerset
Democrat office got on a "high," one
day iast week, armed themselves with
guns and struck for the woods in search
of game, a la Nimrod. They were
promptly dismissed by the editor.
Served them right.
The graduation, masonry and ballas
ting of the remaining 47 sections of the
Pittsburg it Conneilsvilleßailroad, sit
uated at intervals upon the 90 miles be
tween Conneilsville and Cumberland,
will be let on the Ist of May next.
NEW HARDWARE STORE.— John F. j
Blymyer has opened a hardware store
in Blymyer's Row, next door to G. R.
< ister A Co.'s store. John is a clever
young man and deserves a share of
public patronage.
HORSES STOLEN.—A raid of horse
theives was made on McGonnellsburg
and vicinity, one day last week.—
Three valuable horses were captured, j
two of which have since been recover
ed. The theives made good their es
cape with the other one.
p. "VV. CROUSE lias the largest assort- |
mentof tobacco and cigars ever offered
to the people of Bedford county
to make selections from, and as for
quality and price are unsurpassed.—
We therefore advise our readers to
give Dan a call and try the weed.
a ,
WAIN RIGHT A Co.—The attention
of our mercantile friends is called to
the card of Wainrlght A Co., Whole
sale Grocers and Tea Dealers, corner
Second and Arch streets, Philadelphia.
They are first rate fellows and first
class merchants.
Henry Crawley lias removed his ton
serial establishment to the room form
erly occupied by I)r. Marbourg. on Ju- j
liana street, directly opposite the Pos - j
office. Shampooning, hair dressing, j
shaving, Ac., done in a manner that :
will give satisfaction to all.
EDITORIAL CHANGE.— John R. Don- 1
ehoo, Esq., who for four years, has so
ably edited the Fulton Democrat , has ;
retired from that paper, and Smith M. :
Robinson, Esq., has assumed the man- |
agement thereof. Our 0®" to both of 1
you, gentlemen.
Smokers and chewere should make
it their business to buy cigars by the
hundred and tobacco by the pound at 1
Crouse's "Resort,"Cam's Row, it being
tiie only exclusive tobacco and ci j
gar emporium in Bedford. By so do- j
ing, you can buy cheaper and lietter
than anywhere else. Dan trys to j
please.
POOR PAVEMENTS. —'There is a num- !
her of pavements in this place that j
need reconstruction badly. There is j
one east of Bedford street, which is in ;
such miserable condition that it should j
at once be abated as a nuisance. After j
a rain it is almost impassable. Will
property holders take the hint, or shall
the matter be looked after by the bor
ough authorities ? We shall see.
The first number of tho "Mountain
City Times,"published at Cumberland,
has reached us. The copy before us Is
a fine specimen of typographical skill,
and the original matter evinces consid
erable editorial ability, in politics,
the Times is sound to the core, beiug
thoroughly Democratic. We wish the
proprietors unlimited suceess in their
new enterprise.
Hoffman of tho Somerset Democrat
advertises for a "good smart boy" to
learn the art of printing. He says,
"Boys that smoke, swear or spend
their evenings on the street, need not
apply." We are afraid that he will
huve some trouble to get one to suit
him. Unfortunately for the good of
a K-iety, hoys are not considered"smart"
these degenerate days without the a
bove "accomplishments."
Huntingdon has gone wild over the
velocipede. Mercenary merchants,
big-bellied bankers, audacious attor
neys, generous gentlemen and chival
rous clerks, as well as fancy young
men, are exhibiting their sprawling
powers at National Hall. The mania
has reached the editors, too. The Mon
itor proposes to secure velocipede, get
astraddle and skedaddle after its delin
quent subscribers, even at the risk of
having its mangled editorial self bur
ied at the expense of the county. Poor
fellow!
RESIGNED. —The resignation of Hon.
William McSherry, as Revenue As
sessor of the 16th District of Pennsyl
vania, was accepted by the President
of the United States on the 23d of
March. Mr. McSherry is one of the
most correct and faithful officers in the
State, and his services will lie missed.
It is generally understood that Ed
ward Scull, of Somerset, will succeed
him. "Somerset was to do a big thing
for Cessna at the election, and then
Cessna was to give Somerset the Asses
sorship," is the way in which the sup
posed bargain is sometimes stated.
One day last week we dropped into
the mammoth store of J. B. Williams,
Bloody Run, and were surprised to ce
how busy the enterprising proprietor
and his gentlemanly clerks were kept
selling goods to cash customers. Mr.
Williams adopted the cash system on
the Ist of April, and the thing appears
to work like a charm. People buy
for cash what they need, especially
when they can get it for 20 per cent
less ttian under the slow and circuitous
method of long credits. It really
astonishing to note how cheap Wil
liams is selling goods, and we are sur
prised that both merchants and custo
mers are not everywhere in favor of
the cash system.
THE WEATHER.— The weather has
been April-fooling everybody com
pletely.
Instead of Spring, with her genial in
fluences on everybody and everything,
old Boreas pays us a visit every few
days. This is attributed, by many, to
the fact that the ground-hog made a
mistake this year.
The ground-hog has proved himself
a poor prognosticator of the weather.
He is a mendacious cuss—an unreli
able underground weather-cock.
He's too slow for this age.
Even the weather itself gets ahead of
him, while the Ilagerstown Almanac
beats him two to one.
He had better emigrate to Alaska at
once, via Boher's Landing.
But Spring like Christmas, is "com
ing to come" if we have patience to
wait. We must wait.
The buds are beginning to swell and
the trees are filling their trunks with
sap and getting ready to leave.
After which "the spring time will
come, gentle Annie!"
QUITE HAPPY.— The editor of the
Inquirer seems to be over-joyed at the
fact that he is to be our near neighbor.
If our propinquity to the Inquirer will
make it a decent newspaper, or im
prove its editor's "character for truth
and veracity," w*e shall be highly grat
ified. There is only a brick wall be
tween the GAZETTE BCLDING and the
rooms occupied by the Inquirer , but |
we remember "draft" times and are
not afeared. By the way, we do think
that we have now the prettiest print
ing olfice to be found lu any county i
town in the state. Mr. Spang deserves
great credit for his enterprise in j
erecting so beautiful, substantial and
useful a structure as the GAZETTE
BI N.DING. Mr. Lutz of the Inquirir
merits praise for trying to keep pace
with us, and has erected a very fine
house in which he will keep his book
store, printing office and parts of which
he will rent out. But for eligibility
of site, handsomeness of construction,
convenience of arrangement, and above
all, light , the GAZETTE BUILDING I
is incomparable. Nevertheless, we are
not so proud of our new office, that we
cannot fully appreciate the joy which
Mr. Lutz seems to feel in becoming
our close neighbor.
THE PITTSBURG AND CONNELLS
VILLE RAILROAD.— During the past
winter several of the contracts on this
road were thrown up by the par
ties who had undertaken them, they
averring that they had already lost
large sums, and would lose more
should they continue the work. This
of course checked the progress of the
work somewhat. Last fall for
ty three sections were let, and
forty-seven remained unlet, between
Cumberland and Connellsville, a dis
tance of ninety miles. Those sections
which were let at that time comprised
the heaviest work on the line of road.
The company have now, says the Cum
berland Civilian, determined to put
the entire work under contract; let all
the sections which have not been here,
tofore bid for, as well as to relet those
which have been thrown up during
the winter. The specifications will be
rt-adv for distribution at their office by
the 9th instant. The work will he put
in hands at once, and the officers of the
company will make every effort to
: have the road opened and cars run
ning between Pittsburg and Cumber
land by the fall of 1370.
TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS FINE FOR.
KILLING A SMALL BIRD.— By an act
of the General Assembly of Pennsyl
vania, approved the 31st of March, A.
D. 1809, a penalty of twenty-five dollars
is imposed for the killing of any in
sect! vorus bird; one half oi this fiue
to be paid to the informer. Here is
an opportunity to make twelve dollars
and a half, and render the community
effective service. There is no practice
so inhuman as the killing of the pretty
littie songsters that warble beneath our
windows and gladden our hearts. It
is the duty of every good citizen to
prevent their destruction ; and this can
only be (Jorje by prosecuting those who
violate the law. The birds that are
classed undep the head of Insectivor?
ous birds are robins, martins, swal
lows, blue-birds, woodpeckers Ac., Ac.,
in fact all the various small birds geu
; erally seen in this latitude.

CLOSE OK THE ST. CLAIRSVILLE
SCHOOL.— The winter session of the SI.
Clairsville school, under the manage
ment of S. W. Keyser, dosed on Friday
March 20, and we cannot permit the op
portunity to pass, without expressing
our conviction that the school has
proved a decided success. The session
was closed with an "Exhibition,"
which we must in nowise neglect to
speak of. The closing exercises took
place on the evening of the 26th., in the
presence of a large number of ladies and
gentlemen, patrons and directors.—
After prayer by Rev. C. U. Heilman,
the audience were favored with a song
called, "Good Evening." This was fol
lowed by an address, subject, "Each a
duty to perform," by Mr.S. W. Keyser,
was ably written and well delivered.
The exercises were then continued by
quite a number of Essays, Select Read
ings, Declamations, and Dialogues.
The audience were occasionally favored
by a number of comic songs by 6. W.
Grove, which received much applause.
The exercises throughout were a com
plete success. 31 r. S. W. Keyser de
serves great credit for his assiduous at
tention to the duties of his profession,
and for the careful attention to the ad
vancement of his pupils during the
session. He, like all earnest teachers,
has a desire to see the teacher elevated
in his position, and not trampled un
der the feet by ignorance and vice.
The true motives, which should ani
mate the teacher are a love of (he pro
fession for its own sake, a firm and un
yielding devotion to the interests of
the common schools and popular edu
cation, and a pure and unselfish desire
to seek the highest good of those young
minds he is to assume the responsibili
ty of leading into the pathsof know ledge
and virtue. I hope that all teachers,
who have this desire, will not cease
until the profession of teaching is ele
vated to that high position, from which
will emanate those, influences, which
are to lead future generations into the
paths of Virtue and Knowledge.

WONDERFUL.— Henry W. Burr, No.
49 West 14th Street, while on a visit to
the West, was attacked with severe ill
ness from drinking impure water. —
Life was despaired of, and it was
thought that he must die. His wife
was immediately sent for, and in a day
or two was at his bedside. Having
herself seen the beneficial results from
the use of Plantation Hitters, she in
sisted upon their being administered
to him, which was done, in quanti
ties prescribed by the attending physi
cian* The result was almost as if by
magic, and in one-half hour from the
time they were given her husband was
out of danger, and by a moderate use
of them three or four times a day, he
was soon able to resume his journey to
his home. This is but one case of
many thousands that we know of.
MAGNOLIA WATER.— Superior to the
best imported German Cologne, and
sold at half the price.
