J. Griest aud H. C. Cimpbell. They have managed the county finan ces most excellently in all particulars, and have largely reduced the county debt, as will be seen when the forth" coming county statement comes out. Not as a mere matter of empty praise 1 and flattery, but in justice and candor it must be said that our commissioners deserve the thanks of the people of all parties and classes for the manner in which they performed their duties. LARGE YIELD.— The Bellefonte pa peis are giving the largo yields of wheat on the farms 0! some of our best farm ers In the county,among which are the following : Mr. Isaac Frain, Marion tow ship, 35 bushels to the acre, Mr. Fred Pecker, College township, 37 bushels to the acre.

Now it must be admitted that these are heavy crops, and we would like to hear from some of our farmers in this neighbor, hood how their crops compare with the above. We know of one case at least in Penns Valley that beato them all, but that was many years ago. A par ticular acre, measured by asurve)or,on the farm now occupied by Mr. Absa lom Musser,ln Haines township,prodit • ced foity-slx bushels, soma pecks and quarts of best oloaued wheat.

We are in possession of a basket full ot these potatoes and can give them a warm recommendation as the bett yielding potatoe in the market. It you are in need of any seed potatoes do not fail 10 call on him. tf lt appears that some people along the western end of our rail road want too much damages for their lauds, and this is a hindrance for the local c on iu it tee who have chat go of the matter in getting things into proper shape to begin work. President Du Harry sent the following telegram to the commit tee : * * * 4k \vill you please say to the people that no work will he done till the bond is executed ; if they want the work to go on promptly they must have it executed at once.

BUOAD AXE. 14 I'IIK BEE HIVE."— The meicanlile business has of late years been brought to a system that lacks but little of per fection. The buying and selling is so well understood by our leading mer chants as to insure the heat results to the public,the most and best goods for the least money. Among the best and most successful stores in this part of the state is the popular and widely-known BEE HIVE of Lock Huyen, Everett & Co. propria- Vtors. For many years this house bus (Mintrolled (he lolling dry Rods trade of Clinton county, hs Wl h us a large part, of Centre county, and even does a latc trade up the West Branch Cameron county. The teasons that the Bcc Hive dots such a 11 uirishing busi ness is apparent . The proprietors keep a full lino of all kinds and grades of goods and .so are able to suit all classed of people. They have but one price for all and that is Hie very lowest. Their clerks and salesmen are always clever and obliging to customers, whether they buy large or small bills. We can cheerfully recommend our readers who visit Lock Haven to go to the Bee Hive in making purchases, for theie they can always be suited. 2t XK wsp.V l* 15 It DI NS.— The Harris burg Patriot makes the following sensi ble comments on an old snbj ct: We presume that some people think that newspaper men are persistent duns ; let a farmer place himself in a similar position and see if he would not do tin* same. Suppose that lie raises one thousand bushels of corn and his neighbor should come and buy a bushel .and the price" was only the small sum of one dollar, or less- and the neighbor says "I will pay you the amount in a few days." As the far mer does not want to bo small about the matter be says, "all light." Anoth er comes in the same way until the whole of one thousand bushels aie trusted to one thousand different per sons,and not one of the purchasers con cerns himself about it for it is a small amount they owe the farmer, and of* course that will not help him any. He does not realize that the farmer has frittered away his large crop of corn, and that his value is due in a thousand little driblets, ami that lie is seriously em harassed in his business because his debtors treat it as a little matter. Just so with the newspaper business. A S2O Bible Prize. The publisher of Hiithtlyi.'a Monthly offer twelve valuable rewards in their Monthly for February, among which is tin following : We w ill give *20.00 to the person tell ing us which is the longest verse in the Old Testament Scriptures by February 10th, 1 s 4.

Addiess RPT- I.KDOK PriiLisiii.su COMPANY, Fasten, Pa. A sacrilegious, dastardly and villan ous act was committed at Arcndsville, Adams county, in the old grave yard | bordering on the square, on Thursday night, the loth ult. Some person or persons displaced nearly all the tomb stones, breaking a number off at the ground, others were broken into pieces. Two heavy posts were used in the de struction, as could he plainly seen. Those which were pulled out were car ried away and set up against the fences, thus rendering it almost impossible to replace many of them. This act of van dalism meets with the just condemna tion of the citizens and others. Quite a number of persons heard the noise; the time was about two o'clock in the night.— (httysburgCompiler.
