In consequence of the great scarcity
of money and our. inability to collect

been obliged to suspend. We believe
that we have good assets sufficient to
pay yur debts and hope that our credi

have arrangements made in a fyw days

The following interesting items we
clip from the Fulton Republican :
QUERY. —What has become of IK >L
AIIAM?
PERSONA L. —The Hon. Jobn T 'essna
and family, started last week, to.South
Carolina, and will be gone about one
month.
G. R. Osier A Co., are receiving and
opening daily the choicest lot of goods
ever brought to Bedford. It is aston
ishing to see how many goods this
firm is selling, all the time. Oster A
Co. always keep the best. This ac
counts for tiie large patronage they re
ceive.
INSTALLED. —Mr. George Elder, the
new Commissioner, took his place
in the Board on Monday, viie Mr.
David llowsare, whose term expired.
The retiring member, Mr Howsare,
has been a faithful servant of the peo
ple, during his term. The new man,
Mr. Elder, is one of the best men in
the county, and will undoubtedly
make an excellent officer. The Board
consists, at present of Messrs. Peter
M. Barton, Daniel P. Beegle and

DWELLING BURNED.— Last Wed
nesday morning, theowelling houseof
Mr. Joseph S. Diehl, of Colorain town
ship, was entirely consumed by fire.
Mr. Diehl was in Bedford at the time,
and there was no one about the house
but a few women. Tluough Uie aid
of several neighbors, a part of the
household furniture was saved. The
fire originated from the pipe of the
stove. '1 he loss is heavy. No insur
ance.
To-day, (Tuesday,) "It snows! It
snows! from out the sky, the little
feathered flakes do fly," and it looks
really as though we were in mid-win
ter. I'he prospects of a good fall of
snow are very flattering, and in a few
days we expect to hear the merry peals i
of the sleigh bells, and the gay and
joyous laugh of the fair belles who en
joy a drive over the smooth surface of
the bedded snow. Oh! what delight
ful sport is sleighing, especially the
upsetting into snow banks and other
et cot eras incident to that great enjoy- I
meat of winter.
FATAL. ACCIDENT.— WiIIiam Ing"
ard, of Puttstown, Huntingdon coun
ty, was killed at the water station, in
Saxton, on Monday last, by the passen
ger train running over him. The un
fortunate man attempted to step out lie
cars while in motion and fell on the
track, the trafn passing over him, cut
ting him in two, and killing him in
stantly.
RIOT.—A serious riot took place at
Meyers Mills, on the lineof the P. & C.
Railroad, in Somerset county, one day
last week. A number of the railroad
hands having indulged rath A freely
in benzine, undertook to "clean out"
the town with stones and other mis
siles. The citizens failing to appreci
ate this little diversion of the railroad
ers, armed themselves and drove the
rioters from the field. Several of the
latter were wounded,—one seriously.
CANNING EGG-.— The process of
"ea ining" eggs in their own shells is
something new. It was explained at
a late meeting of the New York
Farmer's Club. When two or three
dozen eggs are obtained from the nests,
place them in a dish and pour scalding
water over them, and immediately
turn it off. This process is repeated
three times, by which means the albu
men is fixed or coagulated, the pores of
the shells closed and the egg, as it were,
canned in its own covering. The eggs
thus prepared are then packed in salt,
with the apex downward, and they
are said to keep perfectly fresh for
many.months.
CHURCH DEDICATION.— On Sunday,
the 28th inst., the new Evangelical Lu
theran church of the Dunning's Creek
Congregation, will be dedicated to the
services of the Triune God. Religious
services as follows: preaching on Fri
day evening; preparatory services on
Saturday morning; preaching in the
evening; dedication on Sunday morn
ing and communion services in the e
vening. The President of the Alle
gheny Synod, Rev. It. A. Fink, and
several other ministers will be pres
ent. All the neighboring ministers,
and the public generally, are cordially
invited to be present.
CHURCH DEDICATION AT NEW
PARlS. —Trinity Reformed Church,
built (luring the summer and autumn,
in the village of New Paris, in the
western portion of this county, was
dedicated with suitable solemnities to
the worship of the Triune (iod, on
Saturday, November Oth, 1809. The
pastor, Rev. N. H.Skyles, was assisted
in these interesting servicebys the Rev.
W. M. Deatrick, of Friend's Cove, who
preached the dedicatory sermon. The
building is a neat, plain, and comfor
table one, costing about thirteen hun
dred dollars. Its dimensionsare forty
five feet in length by thirty feet in
width. About six hundred dollars
were raised, at the time of the dedica
tion, towards the debt still resting on
the church.
A LIVELY WOOD SCENE.— The
Lutheran parsonage was completely
surrouuded by a large party of wood
haulers, on last Wednesday. No doubt
the good pastor, Rev. J. Q. M'Atee, is
prepared for almost any emergency,
but this large army of stalwart men
from the hills and valleys about Bed
ford, coming as they did with their
wain completely loaded and "ready for
fire, took the Bishop by surprise, and
the best thing he could do was to sur
render at discretion which he did grace
fully, and even treated the besiegers to
the best his larder could furnish. Af
ter all it was a pleasant affair, and the
more the event of that day is discussed
during the cold wintry weather, the
warmer will the folks at the parsonage
become on the subject.
#
IMPORTANT DECISION.— We are in
formed that the Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue has decided that Farm
ers who peddle and sell Flour, although
made of grain raised on their own
farms are liable to pay a special tax as
peddlers. This decision, however we
understand does not prevent farmers
from selling flour, made of their own
grain, at their residence, provided the
sales do not exceed SI,OOO annually.
Nor does it prevent farmers from de
livering such flour where ordered,
when thus purchased. The law is in
tended to prevent the solicitation of
orders or peddling.
AX EXCITING SCENE INT THE COURT
ROOM.— A Woman Seeks to Avenge her
wrongs. She Throws Sulphuric Acid into
the Face of her Betrayer ! —The court
room, on Monday afternoon last, was
the scene of an unusual and exciting
occurrence. A young lady who had
been cruelly wronged, and who had
sought redress through the strong arm
of the law, and finding that process a
rather tedious one according to her no
tions, undertook to take theeaseoutof
the hands of the court and jury, by in
flicting a sudden and terrible punish
ment on the young man who had rob
bed her of all that is dear to woman's
heart—a virtuous name. Several
hours before the tragic scene in the
court room, the young lady in ques
tion had procured at one of our drug
stores, a quantity of sulphuric acid
which she put into a common tin cup
and carefully concealed the same un
der her shawl. She took a chair in
side the bar with her attorneys, and
when her betrayer came into her pres
ence, she motioned him to come to
her, and when he had reached the
proper distance she threw the contents
of the cup at him, intending to strike
him in the face, but as he dodged, the
greater portion of the acid was receiv
ed on his head. This scene created
quite a buzz in the court room. Law
yers in the vicinity of the affair had
their broadcloth ruined, for wherever
the acid touched, a brilliant scarlet
wa> produced. The young lady was
immediately arrested and sent to jail,
while the injured youth was placed un
der medical treatment, and is now
doing well. Subsequently the woman
was taken out of jail and held in £I,OOO
bail for her appearance at the Quarter
Sessions.

GONE WEST. -Rev. A. J. Barrow,
Rector of St. James Episcopal church
of this place, has received and
accepted a call from the church at
Evanston, III.' He preaced his farewell
sermon in the court house, on last.
Sabbath evening. Mr. Barrow has
been in Bedford ever since the estab
lishment of the Episcopal congrega
tion at this place—four years ago,—
and has labored assiduously for the e
rection of a neat church edifice which
is now partially up. The many
friends of Mr. Barrow wish him suc
cess in his new field of labor, 'the
parish will be left without a Rec
tor for the present, but we learn will
be supplied in a short time.
FIRE.— We learn from the Somer
set Democrat , that on Friday afternoon,
the sth inst., a stable belonging to Mr.
C. Krissinger, at Berlin, took fire from
the sparks from the Berlin Foundry,
and burned, with all its contents. It
being a very windy day, the fire was
communicated to the stable of Mr. Jo
siah Donner, which was al-.o consumed
with the entire contents. These sta
bles were filled with hay, straw, &c.,
and the latter contained thirty-five
bushels of wheat and a fat hog which
were burned. Some of the dwelling
houses in the vicinity had several times
caught fire, and but for the coolness
and almost superhuman work of the
citizens, a general conflagration would
have been the result. Among other
incidents may be mentioned the fact
that Emanuel Meyers came very near
falling from the top of Mr. Krissing
er's new building. While engaged on
the roof, he lost his balance, and caught
at some bricks in the chimney ; the
bricks came out, and he caught, by
lucky chance, on the eave of the roof,
and thus saved himself from a fearful
fall and almost certain death.
ADVERTISEMENTS FIRST.— When a
young lady takes up a paper, she
glances first at the marriages and "per
sonals;" an old lady at the deaths; a
boy at the stories; the average man
the news. It is only the shrewd young
business man, remembering the adage,
"business before pleasure," who com
mences in the right way, by reading
the advertisements first. This, indeed,
is putting a newspaper to its best use.
A man who so uses it is sure to keep
"posted"—to know what is going 011
in the busy world around him—to
know where he can dispose of what he
has to sell. And there is no fear but
what he will get all that is valuable in
the paper besides. We have heard a
businessman say that he thinks fifty
percent, better of a young man when
he sees him, after taking up a paper,
dive first into the advertising columns.
It is certainly an invaluable habit for
man to form—and woman, too, for that
matter. If everybody who takes a
newspaper would make it a point to
study the advertisements before being
led away by the other attractions of
the paper, he would immensely bene
fit advertisers, immensely benefit
newspapers, and immensely benefit
the community. Newspapers act, like
money, the part of lubricating oil to
the machinery of business. They aid
it to run smoothly and lapidly, and
the more people make use of them,
the more use they can be to them.
PITTSBURGH FJMAJ.E COLLEGE.—
The present term of this sterling in
stitution will close on the 3d of Decem
ber, and the Winter term will open on
the morning of the 6th. We are pleas
ed to learn that the term now draw
ing to a close is even more prosperous
than the corresponding one of last year.
A large number of now pupils from
the city and from distant points are in
attendance, and the propects for the
coming term areexcellent. The gener
ous outlay of the Trustees during the
past summer is meeting with a hearty
response. Its excellent and well fur
nished buildings, largeand accomplish
ed Faculty, and its superior facilities
for imparting a thorough, solid and or
namental education ; as well as its ex
cellent dicipline and high moral tone,
commend it to all who have daughters
to educate. It is in every way worthy
of its large and select patronage, and
we heartily commend it to our read
ers. Send to the President, Rev. I. C.
Pershing, for a catalogue.
POISONED.— Two farmers in Hun
tingdon county, were poisoned one
day last week, by eating a root which
they thought was spikenard, but
which was aconite, or wolf's bane,—
Shortly after eating it, they were at
tacked by violent pains. The one
drank water and almost instantly ex
pired. The other drank milk, which
acted as an antidote, and recovered.

In a forest tree lately cut down in
Wisconsin was found an Indian arrow
head, completely embedded and grown
over. It appears from counting the
layers of wood over it, that ninety
years have elapsed since the arrow
which it tipped was shot at t-he tree.
Mrs. ilryant, of Freidom. Ohio, made
p suit of gray clothes for herself fifty
years ago, and never used them till
last week. And yet her son-iu-law

The Seneca tribe, near Buffalo, have
just lost, by marriage to a young pale
face, their favorite adopted white
daughter, of 17, whose Indian name
means "blue sky tilled with music."
The bride wore white lace and orange
flowers. The civilized ceremony of
matrimony was followed by coppery
speeches a ml congratulations.
The skeleton of a man was found in
an old mine, near Scranton, by a sur
veying party. It proved to be that of
Martin Cain, \\ ho has been missing for
months past. The skeleton was found
near an air shaft, but how it came
there is a mystery.
A young lady while going to her
wedding in Roundouton Sunday was

to a physician and have her limb set,
but she refused, saying she was going
to be married first. And, as usual, she
had her way.
