Ex< ELLENT I KOX ORE. —The Cham
bersburg Valley Spirit says:
"Some weeks ago, Mr. J. M. Coop- !
er sent to Lancaster city, for examina- \
tion, specimens of what he believed to j
t>e iron ore, taken from his farm near \
Bedford. The iron manufacturers to
wlioin these specimens have been sub- 1
nutted pronounce them hematite and !
pipe ore of the best quality, which they '
say, will "melt like butter in a fur- j
naee."
Bedford county teems with untold !
mineral wealth, and all that is needed,
is n little enterprise to develop the !
same. vV hen once we have a railroad I
. through our county, furnaces and red
ling mills will spring up like magic,
| and the inexhaustible beds pf ore that
f are found in every direction will be
i converted into the best ofJqrou. But
| so long as we are without' the facility
of conveying these ores-^-either in their
raw or in their manufactured state—
into market, they wfii be of no earth
ly netoent toany6ne. What we want
and We must have, is a railroad. ]

GREAT GATHERING OF RAD
ICALS!
Tlie Juniata oil Fire!
DIG SPEECH BY BIG-HAM!
Granny Govode, at the instance of
Gory Geary, had issued his "supple
mentary" to the Radicals of Bedford
county to assemble in mighty "Mass
Meeting;" courriyrs had hastened on
swift steeds to the hamlets of the faith
ful ; flaming placards had been scatter
ed to the four winds of heaven, invi
ting the people to come to this place
and hearken to the champions of the
"humbugged est."
Tuesday evening came, and with it
the most miserable failure of a "mass
meeting" ever seen in Bedford. The
"big injun" of the evening was a paid
slanderer of Asa Packer, surnamed
Big-ham—Durham —or "any other
man," who boasted that he was a rel
ative of John A. Bingham of Ohio.
(We pity the Ohio fellow.) Our spe
cial reporter took down bis speech on
the spot, and we give it below for the
benefit of those who had not the pleas
ure of hearing it:
" Mr. President—fellow citizens of
Bedford co.—l'm no stranger to you—
though we have never seen each other
before- my name is Big-ham—in the
first place—Asa Packer—Registry law
—Revenue tax—copperhead—silver-
plate—door k nob —$8.95 —dem —dem—
copperhead—fraud—tax—copperhead
—Grant— copperhead—rebel —Geary—
Kansas —Mexico —ditch—Jonn Cessna
—Patriot— Schuylkill county- Gazette
—J oh n Cessna—rebel —Bigham —cop
perhead-—Asa Packer—sB.95 —2 gold
watches—ah—ah —I almost forgot 15th
amendment—(Here the speaker in a
very boisterous and blasphemous man
ner shouted, "By God, 1 would rather
vote with a black man than with a cop
perhead."
The speaker then took his seat in a
"lather of sweat," and his hearers has
tily adjourned in disgust. "Our mem
ber" who had been sketching the out
lines of a brilliant harangue on the
crown of his shining beaver, was left
"alone in his glory," and the other
speakers will be obliged to reserve
what they had intended to say on this
"big occasion" for some other day.
We would advise our radical friends
when next they import a speaker, to
secure the services of one who uses de
cent language and knows how to ad
dress a Bedford county audience. Let
Big-ham do it "more so." He can't
swallow more than one "copperhead"
at a gulp.
IN A BAD CONDITION,— The Lu
theran and Reformed grave-yard
which has been used for many years
by the Reformed and Lutheran con
gregations of this place and the sur
rounding country, is at present in a
disgraceful condition, and should re
ceive immediate attention from those
who have friends or relatives buried
there. The fences are bokeu down,
and by night and by day, this hallow
ed spot is a rendevous for all the cat
tle and hogs that are runningat large.
If this matter is not speedily attended
to, there will be nothing left to mark
the resting place of those who are
sleeping silently in the "city of the
dead." If those interested would con
tribute a small amount, eitherin mon
ey or lumber, the place would soon a
gain look as itshould. Respect for the
memory of the "departed ones" should
prompt immediate action.
Persons wishing to contribute to this
laudable object, can do so by calling on
Rev. F. Benedict.
I A WORD FOR LOCAL NEWSPAPERS.—
: We clip the following from the New
| York Tribune. It is true, and we com
| mead it to every one who has an inter
j est in where he resides :
Nothing is more common than to
\ hear people talk of what they pay
newspapers for advertising, Ac., as so
much given in charity. Newspapers,
by enhancing the value of property in
their neighborhood, and giving the
localities in which they are published
a reputation abroad, benefit all such,
particularly if they are merchants or
real estate owners, thrice the amount
yearly of the meager sum they pay
for their support. Besides every pub
lic spirited citizen has a laudable pride
in having a paper of which he is not
ashamed, even though he should pick
it up in New York or Washington.
A good-looking, thriving sheet,
helps property, gives character to lo
cality, and in many respects, is a desi
rable public convenience. If from any
cause the matter in the local or edito
rial column should not be to your stand
ard, do not cast it aside and pronounce
it good for nothing, until satisfied that
there has been no more labor bestow
ed upon it than is paid for. If you
want a good readable sheet it must be
supported. And it must not bo sup
ported in a spirit of charity either, but
because you feel a necessity to support
it. The local press is the power that
moves the people.
The Orthodox Quakers of this
country number 54,000. They have
755 churches that furnish sitting for
| 259,000 persons.
Isaac Fowler, the defaulting New
York postmaster, has arrived at San
Francisco. He has been an exile from
his country nearly twelve years.
