NEW PAPER. —The first number of

BEDFORD CLASSICAL SCHOOL.— The
attention of our readers is directed to
the advertisement of Mr. Frederick
Woods, Principal of the Bedford Clas

lie liberally patronized. Indeed, for

needed just such an institution as Prof.
Woods' Classical School, and now that
they have it, they should see that it is
properly sustained.
DEATH OF N. J. LYONS.— On the
night of tiie 13th inst., at his home in
this place, departed this life, after a
brief illness, N. J. Lyons, son of the
late Nicholas Lyons and brother of

of our young friend leaves a void in
the social circle which will never be
filled. He was a genial, gentle, big
hearted man, one whom to know was
to esteem and honor. We write these
words, not in the spirit of the maxim,
*le mortuu nil nisi hoi mm, but because
ihey are honestly due to the memory of
our late companion. But death comes
to us all. Pallida, mors aequo pulnat

"after iife's fitful fever he sleeps well."

TESTIMONIAL PRESENTED. —Our
friend, Capt. E. H. Turner, of Saxton,
was, on Monday afternoon last, the re
cipient of a valuable and well merited
tribute from the Masonic Order of this
place.
The Captain stands among the bright
est and most exalted in rank of the
Ancient Fraternity in this country, and
has done more than any other man in
this part of the state to improve and
elevate the craft. He had rendered
valuable service to Bedford Lodge No.
320, for which he had declined remu
neration.
By direction of that Lodge, a com
mittee, consisting of Dr. Ross Ander
son, Lewis N. Evan and J. R. Durbor
row, Esqs., had procured a testimonial,
and, on Monday afternoon the chair
man, Bro. Anderson, together with the
Master and other officers of the Lodge,
as follows, Dr. C. N. Hickok, Geo. H.
Mengel, Jacob Reed, Jrio. Blyinyer. J.
H. Hutton and A. B. Carver, made a
visit to Saxton, and in presence of the
family and several friends of Bro. Tur
ner and the committee, Dr. C. N. Hick
ok, the Worshipful Master of Bedford
Lodge, in a brief but chaste and appro
priate address, presented, in behalf of
his brethren, to Bro. Turner an elegant
watch and chain, which Bro.T. receiv
ed appropriately and with much feel
ing.
The watch is a fine American lever,
with heavy eighteen carat gold case
and chain to match. On the outer case
are the letters "E. 11. T." in mono
gram, and upon the inner ease, or
dome, is the following inscription
"To Past Master Ed. 11. Turner, from
Bedford Lodge No. 320 A. Y. M., in
acknowledgment of valuable fraternal
services. 1869."
After the presentation the company
were invited by Mrs. Turner to an
elegant dinner, to which they did full
justice. After a few hours spent in
pleasant, social intercourse with their
Saxton friends, the committee return
ed by the evening train to Bedford,
well pleased with their day's enjoy
ment.

It is estimated that seven-tenths
of all adult ailments proceed from a
dit-eased and torpid liver. The bilia
ry secretions of the liver oversowing
into the stomach, poison the entire
system, and exhibit the above symp
toms. After a long research, we are a
ble to present the most remarkable
cure for these horrid nightmare of dis
eases the world has ever produced.
Within one year over six hundred and
forty thousand persons have taken
Plantation Bitters, and not an in
stance of complaint has come to our
knowledge. It is the most effectual
tonic and agreeable stimulant, suited
to all conditions of life. Inquire of
your Druggist in regard to it.
MAGNOLIA WATER.— Superior to the
best imported German Cologne, and
sold at half the price.
THE NEWSPAPER CASH SYSTEM.—
The Wisconsin editors have been hold
ing a convention at which the proposi
tion was broached for establishing a
general newspaper system out there of
cash payments. Why not every
where? It is the only proper way.
Most of our country newspapers live
half-starved on the credit system when
they might get fat and saucy on the
cash system. Our war correspondence,
for instance, during the late rebellion,
cost us over half a million in cash.
We could afford it with our cash sys
tem ; but where would we have been
under the old stupid credit system?
Nowhere. Of all things in the world
newspapers call for the cash system,
and it is always best for buyer and
seller. "Mr. Speaker," once said John
Randolph, "I have found the philoso
pher's stone. It is pay as you go, sir,
and be paid as you go.—A r . Y. Herald.
MORRISON'S COVE RAILROAD.— The
stockholders of this road held a meet
ing in the Court House at Hollidays
burg on Thursday, July 15, and elect
ed a president and twelve directors.
The following persons were chosen,
President, S. S. Blair; Directors, Da
vid Watson, Hon. I). J. Morrell, C. 11.
McAlister, J. King McLanahan, A. S.
Morrow, G. W. Patterson, D. M. Bare,
John W. Duncan, James Medara, Jo
seph Smith, J. L. Morrison, and Jacob
Brenneman. The Hollidaysburg Reg
ister says:
The road has form and substance—
the right kind of men have charge of
its interest, and we hope from the rep
utation of their energy and business
capacity—the iron horse will soon greet
the "Coveites" with its accustomed
shriek, and bring the richest rewards
to such enterprising people. It is no
longer 'westicard the star of Empire
takes its way"—but "southward"— and
we feel hopeful that the road will be
eoutinued on to intersect the Broad
Top at Mount Dallas. It will open up
one of the richest agricultural and
mineral sections in the state. Now is
the time for the Bedford people to
strike and cease talking rail road. This
is their opportunity. We hope they
will see and appreciate it. A meeting
of the Directors will be called at once
■—then look out for doicn brakes!
THE GAME LAW IS BRIEF.— We

to pay the fiuegoes to jail for ten days.
PITTSBURGH FEMALE COLLEGE. —
We are in receipt of the catalogue of
this sterling Institution. Two hun
dred and ninety-four young ladies have
been in attendance during the past
year, gathered not only from promi
and influential families in Pittsburg,
but from Philadelphia, in the East, to
Kansas and Nebraska, in the far West.
The Faculty embraces upwards of
twenty picked teachers, selected on ac
count of their known ability and suc
cessful experience in teachiug. The
course of study is extensive and select
ed with great care. Those who have
attended the examinations at the close
of each term, conducted frequently by
teachers not connected with the Col
lege, will need no endorsement from
us as to the thorough method of train
ing pursued.
Thorough as is the literary depart
ment, the facilities in the ornamental
branches are unusually fine. Any
braeh of a thorough solid and orna
mental education is here taught by ex
corn pi islied teachers. The college may
justly challenge comparison with any
ladies' school in the land.
The building are located in the most
quiet and beautiful part of the city,
and yet within a few minutes walk of
all its important centres. Workmen
are busily employed making import
ant improvements. These improve
ments will soon be completed, and the
College thrown open for the inspection
of visitors. Every private room, and
hall, and schoolroom, will be covered
with carpets and matting. It is a real
luxury to visit such a school, and our
readers, we doubt not, will appreciate
such effort for the improvement- of
their daughters. All honor and suc
cess to the Queen of Western Ladies'
Schools. The Fall term will open Sep
tember, Ist. Send to the President,
I. C. Pershing. I). D., for a catalogue.
The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper
will be administered in the Presby
terian church, in this place, uext-Sab
beth. The Pastor, Rev. R- P. Wilson,
expects the assistance of Dr. W. D.
Howard, of Pittsburg and l)r. I. Ed
wards,* of Baltimore. Service on Sat
urday at 24 P. M., on Sabbath at 104
A. M. and at 74 P. M. Strangers and
others are cordially invited.
THE OLD GUARD for August has
reached us. Among the contents are
the following : "The Fall of Liberty
in Rome," "Adam's Creation," "The
Cub of the Panther," by W. Gilmore
Sinims," "What the War Settled."
The articles in this periodical are all
written by abble minds, and are full of
life and vigor. As the GUARD is the
only democratic magazine published
in the United States, it should bewell
supported by the party. Van Evrie,
Horton & Co., Publisher, 162 Nassau
Street, N. Y.
PACKARD'S MONTHLY for August is
on our table. This magazine is grow
ing more popular with each issue. It
is the livest, cheapest and most reada

AN APPEAL.— We clip the follow
ing "touching appeal" from an Eng
lish paper, and commend it to our own
subscribers, who are in arrears , for
their consideration:
'• Withhold not good from them to whom it is
due, u-hen it is in the power of thine hand to do
it.'"
"We are greatly in need of money
just now in order to meet our paper
bills and other liabilities, and as there
are thousands of dollars due the
office from subscribers, we would kind
ly, but earnestly, ask all who are in ar
rears to remit immediately , if possible, a
part at least of their indebtedness."
"Say not unto thy neighbor, L lro and come a
gain, and to-morrow I will give thee; 1 when
thou hast it by thee. 11
How MUCH GWEST THOU?— The
date opposite the name on the paper is
the time to which the subscriber has
paid ; and means that the subscription
year expired with that date (whatever
the date may be), and as our terms are
two dollars a year in advance, or with
in six months, and two dollars and fifty
cents if not paid within six months,
each one can thus easily determine the
present condition of his account with
this office. How much owest thou?"
"Woe unto him that useth his neighbor's ser
vice without wages, andgivtth him not for his
work."
Francis Marion West, charged with
murdering and robbing William Wal
lace, a farmer of Davis county, lowa,
in 1864, was arested the other day on
a farm near Mexico, Andrian co., Mo.
Several other serious charges are pre
ferred against him.
A passenger train on the Union Pa

REMEMBERED FRIEND —I thought it well to wait
another week before writing, to see if I continued
to improve, as I have been doing for some time,
under the treatment of the new medicine, and I
am happy to tell you when you that I am get
ting better—oven faster than when you were here.
I commenced the use of DODD'S NERVINE with
out anybody advising me to it. When I began
with it I could only walk from my bed to the
chair My trouble has been extreme pain in the
head, and has lasted over three years. All the
medicine I have heretofore taken has failed to
give any relief lam now able to go up and
Sown stairs, and daily improving. I consider
the NERVINE the best medicine I ever found,
and shall continue its use, for lam confident of
entire recovery. I have taken only three bottles,
and would not be without it on any account.
Very truly, MRS I. S. NUTE.

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, 1869, I will
sell goods EXCLUSIVELY FOR CASH OR PRO
DUCE. No doubt some customers may be lost to
me, but I flatter myself that it will be only those
from whom I cannot collect present aocounts.
All goods will be sold at about one half the
profit now pa'd by consumers. The people often
complain of Bedford prices being higher than else
where, and 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 lEN
TO FIFTEEN PER CENT. ON EVERYTHING
THEY CONSUME.
