LOCAL ITEMS.
HiMlciDt B Johkstow.s. —The citizens of
JiibnNown where horrified, on Friday morning
jnsr, by the occurrence of a shocking tragedy in
their midst—the parties concerned being old and
influential citizens. The particulars of the tragedy
ate briefly these: Mr. Joseph Moore, auctioneer
of Johnstown, on his recent return from nine
month’s senrice in the army, ascertained that bis
domestic happiness bad been destroyed, It is alleged,
by Mr. Jordan Marbonrg, n wealthy merchant of
the {own. On bearing of the intimacy said to ex
ist during bis absence, between Marbonrg anu
Mrs. Moore, who is represented as prepossessingjin
appearance and of a gayand dashing disposition,
Moore called upon the former, and after an -ex
planation, told him he would shoot him. Mrs.
Marbonrg, bearing of Moore’s threats appealed to
him wd rotate her husband's life, but the outraged
husband would nut listen to her.
On Friday morning last, Moore arose early,
ami. leaving his house, visited a grocery store
■tear the Postoffice, where he remained until be
tween eight and nine o’clock, when Marbourg
passed by. Moore started out immediately, and
caught Marbourg by the collar, saying, 44 Get down
on your knees; I am going to kill you. My
Wire made a 4 clean breast of it 4 - last .night, tshc
ibid me all, and gave me a portion of the money
which you paid her.” Saying this, he drew a re
volver and fired—the first shot taking effect in the
region of tbe heart. Marbourg fell forward, and
Moore discharged two bolls into his head, and then
tired a fourth, which took effect in the left arm.
Marbourg fell over and almost instantly expired.
Moore walked to a magistrate’s office, surrendered
him-elf"and was committed to jail to await the
(wt ion of the authorities.
The deceased man leaves a most estiniahle wife
ind eight;or nine children—the oldest, a son,
twenty years old. The murderer has a wife
,snd one child, the tatter a promising boy of fifteen

Incohf. Tax—lnstructions have been issued
to U. S. Assessors that to : insure an early com
pletion of the annua) list for 1864, they instruct
their Assistants to begin at once the collection
of income' returns ;in their respective divisions.
That is the tax due on incomes for the year
ending December 31st, 1863. Persons liable to
an income lax should get their affairs in order at
once, to be able to make their returns without
delay, when culled upen. The statement should
be prepared with great care, and should set forth
the entire income for 1863, from all sources; with
the whole intimized statement prepared before
hand, and they can be aided by the Assistant
Assessor in putting them in proper shape id a- few
minutes. Returns will Wve to be made under oath.

Great News for, ■ Topers.—Whisky and
brandy can be made out of cool gas, which consists
of carbon and hydrogen, as does alcohol, with the
addition of oxygen. For several years past the
process of converting olefiant gas into spirit has
been talked of, bat now a French patent baa been
obtained for the purpose and sold to a company in
London. You take away one-half the hydrogen,
add a little oxygen, and presto! you hare.a bottle
of brandr.
A Curious Suit.—An action was recently
brought by a stage proprietor of New York against
the New York and Harlem Railroad, Company for
damages. It appeared that the defendants placed
in their sheds adjoining the plaintiff’s stables, some
glandered horses. From these the stage horses
caught the complaint, and no less than fifty of
them died. The jury gave fire thousand dollars
damages.
Homesick. —A letter from the Army of the
Potomac says : It is worthy of. notice that many
of the veteran corps return to the army before the
expiration of their furloughs. One of this class
gave as a reason for not remaining the fulltime,
that he was homesick, and so returned to his home
in the array
Good Custom.—ln New Zealand, a man who
neglects to provide for his wife and children' gets
properly punished. AH the women of the village,

lines, and he has to run the gauntlet between
them' until he is whipped into decency.
Death or a Centenarian.—Mrs. Margaret
Campbell died at the residence of her son, in Arm
strong township, Indiana county, a few days ago,
at the advanced age of 101 years. A relative of
this lady died a few years ago at the age of 101
years.
An exchange truthfully says: “You may

but just let a paragraph slip in even by accident

I wish all to understand that these prices are
for CASH ONLY—that they are made to accom
modate persons of small means, to whom it is an
object to purchase where the can save a tew cents
on each article—and that they will be adhered to
strictly for the present, and so long, in the future,
as my sales will justify. After making the reduc
tion I must double my sales in order to make as
much money as 1 did at the old prices. The pub

to extend me their patronage, thereby enabling me
to make still further reductions for their benefit.

Dr. Gko H. Kkvske :—I became eflSicted with the Pile*
•bout twenty yeare and every year they were growing
norm, to m to trouble we very much, ao much to at times
mto unfit me for work. Sometime* T waa ao bad that I
could not do anything on account of them, they came out
on me as large ana hickory uut. 1 had tried a great deal
bi medicine tor them. 1 used to buy and take whatever I
could lour of or read of in circulars and pamphlets that
Ml in ihy way, but I could not gel cured, sometimes they
would do me some good for a little while, but afterwards
they would return again as bad aa ever. 1 alao ajppUed to
two Doctors who visited ms at my house and gave ms
stthe medicine but it would not do, I cculd not gt* well.—
Over a year ago I gut an advertisement of your Undsey’a
Blood Searcher, made by yourself—when you sold it to me
you told me one bottle would not cure me, and thst my
whole system would have to be renewed by the medicine
batons l' well. I bought one bottle and took It home
with me and uflefl it according to your direction*. I then
called to see yon again, when yon aald 1 could hot expect
much benefit from one bottle. 1 bought it ou, pne bottle
at a time, until I had used five bottle*. After thU quanti-
ty had been need. I was entirely well of the Piles, which
had tortured me for twenty year*. In other reepecU my
health I* improved, and I am an well aa could be expected
tor one of myage, being sixty year* past. 1 have been
well now for six months, and there le no appearance of a
return of the disease. l ean do any kind of farming
work now without the Pile# coming down and hurting me
I can pitch hay. chop wood. lift, or do any kind of work
which before used to hurt me. When I found out your
Blood-Searcher I kept on taking It until I got entirely
well. I consider It my duty to make my case known to
the country for the benefit of others who may be suffering
aa I was, and<*o not know the value of your medicine, —
Yon may publish this if you like—l live in HtUn'iu Jb«n

STOMACH
BITTERS.
A pure and powerful Took, corrective ud alterative, of
womlerfal efficacy in disease of the
STOMACH, LIVER AND BOWELS.
Cure* Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, Headache* General
lability, Nervousness, Depression of Spirits, Coatti*
, atioo, Colic, Intermittent Severs, Cramps and
Spasms, and all Complaints of either Sex.:
arising from Bodily Weakness, whether
inherent in the system or produced
by special causes.
Norms** that Is not wholesome, genial and restorative
in its nature enters Into the composition of HOSTKTTER’S
STOMACH BITTKES. This popular preparation contains
no mineral of any kind: no deadly botanical element; no
fiery excitant; bat Uis combination of the, extracts oi
rare balsamic herbs and plants with the purest and mild
est of Ml diffusive stimulants.
It is well to be forearmed against disease, and, so for as
the human system can be protected by human means
against maladies engendered by an unwholesome atmo
sphere, impure water and other external causes, HOSTKT
TEH’S STOMACH BITTERS may be relied on as a safe
guard.
In districts infected with Jbver and Ague, it has bee
found infallible as a preventive and irresistible as reipe-.
dy, und thousands who resort to it under apprehension of
an attack, escape the scourge; and thousands who neglect
to avail themselves of Us protective qualities in advance,
are cured by s very brief comae of this marvelous medi
cine. Fever and Ague patients, after being plied with
quinine fur. months Tu vain, until , fairly saturated with
that dangerous alkaloid, are nok>nnfreqnently restored to
health within a few days by tbo use of UOSTETThR’d
BITTERS.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated and the appe
tite restored by this agreeable Tonic, and hence it works
wonders iu cases of Dtspxpsia and in less confirmed ibrsuf
of J npxosstiox. Acting as a gentle and painless apperient,
as well os upon the liver, it also invariably relieves the
Constipation superinduced by irregular action of the di
gestive and secretive organs.
Versons of feeble habit, liable to A’ervout Attacks, Lowness
of Spirits und Fits <\f Languor, find prompt and perma
nent relief from the Bitters. Hie testimony on this point
is most conclusive, and from both sexes.
The agony of Oiluoub Couo is immediately sm’ aged by
a single dose of the stimulant, and by occaatonauy resort
ing to U, the return of the complaint may be prevented
As a General Tonic, HOSTKTTBH’S BITTERS produce
effects which moat be experienced or witnessed before
they can be fully appreciated, la casee of Omrittutfonat
Weakness , Premature Decay and Debility and Decrepi
tude arising from Ou> Aox, it exercises the electric influ
ence. In the convalescent stages of all diseases it oper
ates as a delightful invigorant. When the powers cjpa
ture are relaxed, it operates to re-enforce and re-estab
lish it.
KI.LIOTT DAVIS.
Last, but not least, it is The only Safe Stimulant, being
manufactured from sound and innocuous materials, and
entirely free from the acid elements present more or less
in all the ordinary tonics and stomachics of the day.
No family medicine has been so universally, and, it may
be truly added, deservedly popular with the intelligent
portion of the community, as HOSTETTER’S BITTERS.
