Li FE INSURANCE.— The Citizens' Co
operative Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany of Bedford, which was recently
chartered by the Legislature, promises
well. Our citizens are taking lo!d in
earnest and it Will prove one of the best
iustitutions of our county. It is truly
the poor man's friend, as its rates are
so low that all may become members
at but a small outlay. Ail who can do
so should join without delay.
lioth papers in Bedford, the Inquirer
and Gazette , have removed to a new
building, but the Inquirer is cross at
the Gazette , because it styles itserd the
"Gazette building," the editor of the
Inquirer having built the other end !
We commisserate the Inquirer in its af
flictions l—Hollidaysburg Register.
The fellows of the Inquirer are a
"lettle" jealous of our fine quarters in
the GAZETTE BUILDING. They can't
forget it. somehow. They'll get over it
by and by. Age and a little experi
ence will wear oiF that rugged edge of
unkind feeling toward their lucky
neighbors.
READER, THINK OF IT.— An ex
change aptly and truthfully says of lo
cal papers, that they enhance the val
ue of property ; they henetit particular
ly merchants and real estate owners
thrice the amount yearly they pay for
the support. There is nothing that
would do a place more harm than to
be without a newspaper. This every
sensible man knows. A local paper,
is a necessity. It is a sacred duty to
support your local paper. You need
not think that the publisher of a paper
can run it for your benefit and pay ex
penses out of his own pocket. Give
your home paper a good advertising
patronage and a respectable list, and
you will then have just such a pa
per as you wish.
PUMPS.— Messrs. Rohm A Shuck re
spectfully announce that they will re
ceive all orders for S. G. Mason's non
freezing pump, from this date till the
25th of August next. Those wishing a
good serviceable pump will do well to
send in their orders at once. They
have thirty five of these pumps in
wells in different, parts of the county,
and by all parties using them they ate
highly recommended. This pump is
now offered to the public at the follow
ing prices. There are two sizes, viz :
one inch and three-quarter inch.
Price list: Three-quarter inch pump—
from 7 to 10 ft., $15.00; 10 to 15, $18.00;

O
PLEA FORTH* BIRDS.— Don't kill the
birds. We scarcely ever bear a bird
sing ; in fact they dare not tune their
throats for fear of a brave man armed
with a gun, who prowls over a meadow
and mound, ready at the first gush of
music to tear the warbler to pieces with
leaden rain. We kill the birds and
then complain of the scarcity of fruit.
Let the birds live, and they will in
crease and protect our fruit crop; nay,
they will add to the production of all
crops, for we verily believe that, the
increase of pestiferous insects of all
kinds is owning to the decrease of
birds. When birds were plenty, we
never heard of great crop failures pro
duced by insects, such as now derange
the markets of the country, and im
pose heavy burdens on the people. It
not only fruit, but grain of ail kinds
is imperiled by the absence of birds to
protect it. Let the feathered inhabi
tants of our fields and woods live; give
them a chance to increase, and their
services will amply repay a brutal
man for the lives lie spares.
UNSEATED LANDS.—ANIONS the
bills passed by the Legislature is one
providing that the Treasurer of each
i county shall keep a book to be (-ailed
the "receipt book," in which shall be
recorded the receipts of all payments
made to him on account of taxes paid
lon unseated lands, designating the
number of acres warrantee passed, and
the name or names of owners or alleg
; ed owners of each tract of land, the
i towship where situate, and amount of
taxes paid and when and by whom paid,
a certified copy of which receipt, un
der hand of the Treasury and the seal
of the county, shall be the only
evidence of the payment of taxes
except where said receipts have
been duly recorded in accordance
with the provisions of the first section
of the act of March 9th, 1817 ; that the
owners of unseated lands shall have
two years from the passage of this act
within which to have their receipts
for taxes on unseated lands recorded
in said book, where the same have not
already been entered in a book hereto
fore kept by the Treasurer of thecouur
ty for that purpose; that no parol evi
dence shall be received to prove the
payment of taxes on unseatod hinds.
How TO KEEP GOOD.—NOW that the
warm weather is coming on, the anx
ous housekeeper, glowing before the
heated oven, will be glad to avail her'
self of any method of escape from its
fiery atmosphere. One refuge is open.
Mrs. 3. 8. Marvin, of No. 91 Liberty
street, Pittsburg, has earned the
thanks of the toiling and exhausted
housewife by providing for her a much
greater variety of superior cakes, bis
cuit and crackers, than auy ordinary
kitclied could turn out. Not only are
labor and fatigue of their preparation
thus avoided, but there is actual eeom
oitiy in procuring fr tin Mr. Marvin,
as often as required, his fresh, pa lata*
hie and wholesome small cakes and v?.
rious crackers; inasmuch as his ahum
daut facilities for their mauufacture on
a large scale enable him tofunish them
at lower rates than they wotrid cost the
private housekeeper to make them at
home. And yet he U scrupulously
careful not to secure cheapness at the
expense of quality- Jic makes it a
point to use only the l>ost materials.
We will not stop hare to enumerate
the different cakes he manufactures;
each description is excellent in its
kind. Let the purchaser who desires
a first class article of crackers, 1* sure
to nee that Mr. Marvin's name is
marked on the box or package. He is
always willing to let his work speak
for itself. Ask your grocer for them.—

POLITE LITERATURE. —Since the
time when the sublime effusions of the
Hard-Shell Baptists enlivened the
columns of the newspapers, the pub
lic has languished for that sort of liter
ary pabulum until Holahan, uninvited,
bursts upon the world. In lofty dis
dain, alike of point and punctuation,
he adopts no common models, but re
lies solely on his own unaided genius.
Neither His preceptor, "our"Congress
man, nor the Complete Letter Writer
could have been present when he in
dited the chaste epistle which appears
below. To the much-extolled Common
Schools of the Commonwealth, the
credit of this literary achievement can
not be given. Its author is a graduate
of the Agricultural College of Penn
sylvania, that noble institution which,
like a good foster-mother, laps and
paps, and then sends forth so much
perspiring genius to an admiring gen
eration.
It is impossible to refer at length to
the many line touches that are com
pressed in this elegant letter. To do
so would make the commentary out
swell the production itself. We, our
innocent selves, come in for compli
ment, and our amiable neighbor across
the way,is presented to the public in
the double and somewhat i neon JIB tent
character of "willing dupe and hand
maid of the GAZETTE." In addition
to being a dupe and handmaid, he is
further described as "oneattw/elher love
ly." The letting out of a little secret
that the Inquirer charged the party for
the printing of posters for public meet
ings may be of use hereafter to other
people. But to charge, and then "at
tack our public servants in a most un
friendly way" is more than the party ex
pected. The Inquirer editor should
have been m )re friendly in his attacks.
But, happily, Holahan rushes gallant
ly to the defense. After losing the
candidate of their choice for jKistmast
er, whose election was "void abinitio,"
"partial and by no means conclusive,"
the public will learn with delight that
the new postmaster of our village is
"ready to die like Aristiades " for his
office. He is willing to die, moreover,
with no more money than will war
rant a tragic burial with two rs ; just
as if a grateful government has ever
failed to inhume its patriotic postmas
ters. In these degenerate days it is
pleasing to know that Bedford at least
possesses a I'. M. who is willing to die
for the cause. With the radical wretch
es who are otfended at "our" Congress
man and our new postmaster, Mr.
Holahan has no patience. They are
"half-starved inconsiderate malcon
tents who want to be foremost or break
something." "The respected candi
dates" are "cat paws without their con
sent." But we are compelled to drop
comment, and admit the reader to the
perusal of this exquisite literary per
formance. Hereafter when Mr. Hola
han wishes to write to the radicals of
Bedford county, we tender him the
columns of the GAZETTE which they
read much more assiduously than the
Fulton Repubt'uxm. But he must
learn to spell better.
Mr. Editor:— l have this moment
read an article published in your "Re
publican" of last week headed "Things
we don't understand" Being a stran
ger it is not lor me to say how much
you do understand or to test your un
derstanding in anyways but in justice
to you i think you have written that
article under the proper caption. You
have evidently permitted yourself to
be imposed upon by designing narrow
minded men of this section, when you
speak of the Bedford P. O. Ordinary
sagasity <>n the part of a Republican
editor should have satisfied him that
there was something rotten in the
i statement of the Bedford Inquirer, the
willing dupe and handmaid of the
Bedford Gazette, with reference to Mr.
Cessna. In the first place the inquirer
has never been friendly disposed to
ward Mr. Cessna, nor towards our rep
resentative, nor towards any but John
Lutz and him altogether lovely. It is
well worthy of observation that from
the beginning of the contest for the e
lection of a congressman, the Inquirer
has never refuted a single ealumny
fulminated by the Gazette, upon any
of our candidates, nor vindicated the
party beyond what would naturally
have been expected of a neutral paper.
Its object seems to have been to do as
little as it could in the least way it
| could without exciting the popular in-
I dignation. It has been of but little
service to us, except to publish some
| bills for a consideration , while it has
never allowed an opportunity to pass
to attack our public servants in the
most unfriendly way, not so much for
the purpose of exposing faults as to
show its own importance, which I feel
safe in saying is not generally realized.
It is true that Mr. Russell and his
friends called an election in which the
subscriber was pleased to participate for
the purpose of supporting him, hut,
when it is well known that the whole
transaction was informal and void
abinitio anil that other candidates
equally meritorious whose callateral
claims were beyond all question
broughta just influence to bear fully '*n
titled to the same consideration. The
popular vote as it is termed was par
tial and by no means conclusive. It
was therefore found expedient to com
promise the matter by the appoint
ment of a new man one who although
it is true he has filled many positions
of public trust is unquestionably one
of the best men in the party 5 and so
scrupulous in his integrity its to be
ready to die like Aristiades, with no
more money than will warrant him a
respectable burrial. Mr. Itussel lias
accepted an appointment in Philadel
phia and is perfectly satisfied. The
great ado is being made by the Cop
perhead papers and their republican
conscripts who like half starved, in
considerate malcontents want to be
foremost or break something. All men
cannot be supplied with offices and it
is a shame for our party that so many
persons whose sole consideration is
that they have carried a coffee-pot to a
township meeting now feel themselves
entitled to a post office or a revenue
assessorship or to some other position
for services rendered, Mr, Cessna lias
never yet turned his back upon his
friends but in the distribution of pub
lic patronage be seems to hold the
claim of the position and the interests
of the party paramount to any persona
constUe*atjoiiB of his own, it is due to
the respected candidates for the post
office here to say that they have been
used as oat pi it's without thejr consent
for the purpose of getting up a disrup
tion in the party and it is highly im
portant that persons should be made
to understand these facts before they
attempt to mould pulic opinion,
Yours Respectfully

It EA I) THIS!
Their own interests are at stake in
this matter. Everybody has suffered so much
from the accursed CREDIT SYSTEM, if system
it can be called, that I intend to offer to every
body a panacea for the evil in the future.
On and after the first day of June, 1569, I will
sell goods EXCLUSIVELY FOR CASH OR PRO
DUCE. No doubt some customers may b lost to
me. but I Ratter myself that it will be only those
from whom I cannot collect present accounts.
All goods will be sold at about one-balf the
profit now pa ! d by consumers. The people often
complain of Bedford prices being higher than else
where, ad It Is doubtless true, to some extent, for
the reason that good customers have had to pay
for others goods with an additional profit on their
own.
Let an Intelligent community sustain me in this
enterprise and they WILL SAVE FROM TEN
TO FIFTEEN PER CENT. ON EYERYTHINO
