Address LITTLE JOUR NAL, Lewisburg, Pa. —The other day an agent tried to sell us a fire-pro6f, burglar-proof safe. The idea of trying to sell a poor printer a costly safe is so exquisitely droll that it makes us laugh even yet just to think of it. It would be like buying a fioouey purse on tick. —For beautiful styles of Wall Pape I .go to Musser & Smith's Hardware Store, corner of Maiu and Peun streets in Millheim. They have just received a large lot ot the latest patterns, and are selling it at the very lowest fig ures. 2t —lt affords us much pleasure to state that the second exhibition of the German Evening School, on Saturday evening, was even more of a success lhan the first. The spacious hall was well filled, the performances decidedly good, and the managers realized quite a snug sum for their labors. Bravo! —Saturdays are generally very bnsv days iu Bellefonte, and Lewiu al-ways comes in for his full share of trade.

Mingle, who for several vear3 past was tbe popular and ef ficient salesman in Bauland & New man 's Bee Hive Store, is going into business on his own book, .or rather into partnership with Mr. Louis Doll, la the shoe business. "Cap" has hosts of friends wherever known and we wish him abundant success in his new sphere. SEVERE AFFLICTION.—The family of Mr. John Gingrich, some miles a bove Bellefonte, is sadly afflicted with scarlet fever of a very malignant type. All the children, seven or eight in number, have been down with the ter rible disease and two of them have al ready died. The'neighbors are afraid to go to the house and it was with some difficulty that the dead children could be buried. t Amos Alexander.! Mr. James Alexander, father of Amos, emigrated from Maryland to Centre county, Pa., tu the year 1795, and settled on the farm of Wm. Pot ter, Esq., about a mile east of Old Fort. Here the subject of this notice was born, August 2nd, 1811; and here on the same farm the father and two sons—Francis and Amos—lived togeth er in peace and harmony fifty-two successive years. In 1854 Amos Alexander bought and moved upon the farm belonging to the estate of Judge Kryder, deceased, in Penn township, where for a number of years he was very successfully en gaged in farming. In 1851 he was elfcted to th* office of County Commissioner, which posi tion he very creditably filled for a term of three years. In 1865 he purchased the property of John Y. Forster, deceased, in Mill heim, and for several years was en gaged in the meicantilo business. Failing health however induced him to retire from all business pursuits and he lived a private and quist life for some sixty years prior to his death. In 1837 Mr. Alexander was united in Marriage to Miss Elizabeth Keller, daughter of Christian Keller, of Pot ter township. For forty-four years the couple lived together contentedly and happy. They had ten children, of whom four sons and two daughters survive their parents. Mr. Alexander was one of those few kind, g*ui\l natures that have only friends—no enemies. lie was a con stant friend and help to the poor, and his many quiet but effective deeds of charity will perhaps never be kßown on earth, but they are treasured up in heaven. He was an obliging aud help ful neighbor, ever willing to aid and assist others whenever his help was needed. He was an active and con sistent member of tbe church ever since we knew him, and probably for many years before. He adorned his profession by a chtistian walk and con duct. But he is no more on earth, lie is gathered to the fathers iu the better land above. 110 derai led in the full hope of a blissful immortality, March 15t,.1331, aged G9 years and 5 months. May his noble example be followed by many, and may his memory remain fresh and green in the hearts of his surviving family, relatives and friends. —From the lengthy and comprehen sive report of the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company wo clip the following short extract relating to tbe Lewis burg and Tyrone road: About sixteen miles of tho western end of the Lewfsburg and Tyrone rail road, connecting with this company's line near Tyrone, and developing an extensive iron ore district, have been completed, and a further extension will be made during the present year. Here then we have a positive prom ise in the highest official form that something will be done towards the final completion of our road, and judg ing from the highly prosperous condi tion of the Penna.

Wolfe & Hosterman, our enterpris ing merchants, have secured the ser vices of Mr. Robert Miller, cf Spring Mills as clerk. Mr. O. R. Spigelmeyer, who for a number of years has so satisfactorily administered to the necessities of this people in the mercantile line, is mak ing preparations to more to Spring Mills, where he will open a store at the old Duncan stand. May his labors in the new field be crowued with abund ant success. N. W. Eby & Co. have closed the whisky distillery. Nobody need be a larmed however, for there Is enough of the spirits on hand to repleulsh the private demijohn of every man within a radius of fifty miles. Mrs. Searle and her son James, who have been here spending the winter with Capt. VanValin's, have returned to their home at EagleviJle. James is a boy of no ordinary talents, of a kind and cheerful disposition, a careful stu dent, and excellent composer. If he does not turn from £his presSUt path he will certainly some day stand high among men. One of our citizens incited "Young America" tho ether day, whereat in dignant Young America replied with a volley of stones. This raised the ire of the citizen, who tried to collar Young America, but the latter prov ing their ability to hurl all kind of missiles with such mathematical pre cision, the citizen suddenly disappear ed around the corner and the fusilaile ceased. B>ys should not be encourag ed to whip big men; but big men should be encouraged to speak deceut ly to boys. JIM SCHRODER. —Mr. James Wall of Lewisburg, who for several years past was the right hand man of Smith & Co., grain dealers at Coburu, petitions tlie court of Union county for a license for a wholesale li quor store at Lewisburg. The signers of Mr. Walls say "that a wholesale li quor store is necessary iu said Boro' of Lewisburg," which if true, is a sad ne cessity indeed.

It would be well, after the hard siege of weather we have just passed, for every property holder to make an ex amination of the chimneys to his house. The terrible March gales will have a tendency to produce a conflagration of the soot which has collected' therein, which, with the inflammatory condi tion of roofs, might proyo very diaas trous.

A portion of a leaden bullet, which had been imbedded iu the skull of a Titusvillo lady for thirty year?, was successfully removed a few days ago.

LEGISLATORS ESCAPINO FROM THE WINDOWS.— St. TAUL, March I.—A bout 10 o'clock to-night, while both houses of the Legislature were in ses sion, an alarm of fire was sounded, which startled the members from their seats. Rushing from the chambers, they were confronted with a falling Are brand from the dome of the capitol, which Wiis already all ablaze. A hook and ladder company, with headquarters near by, hurried to the scene, and with the aid ot these ladders the members all escaped, some of theui slightly singed. The building burned rapidly to the ground, entailing ajloss to the state of over SIOO,OOO. .
