so much sought after,:bas already a fine
lot of early eabbase plants ready for

plants are the finest in this section of

—That enterprising and good-na
tured gentleman, Mr. George Pifer, has
emerged into a full blown auctioneer
since he began to sell his goods oft at
public sale. Mr. Pifer now cries his

—Last Saturday night some hun
gry thieves circulated around town and
committed depredations upon a number
of collars. Mr. George-O'Bryan lost.
lot of butter and bread, Messrs. 1111111
& Galt a ham apiece, and our individu
al and humble self the last morsel of
meat we had on the premises, together
with a lot of cakes. They were a de
spicable set of thieves, whoever they
were, and wo think their conduct show
ed it. To steal front Rohl & (lilt was
bad; to rob our coffin-making friend
O'llryan,was worse, hut to 'go through'
us—a printer—was the very height of
Meanness. Really, we shall feel ju,di
fled, hereafter, in pronouncing against
the generally accepted belief that there
is honor among thieves.
On the following Sunday night, we
presume the same party or ',trues,
broke Into Burnside ( Thomas s store
and robbed the Lill of about eight or
nine dollars in change that had been
left in it from Saturday, taking, besnli4
It revolving pistol and a watch. They
got into the store by breaking the glms
out of the window abote the door and
pulling down the top bolt and then cut
ting a hole through the lower part of
the door, reaching through nod pulling
up the lower bolt. Evidently, the work
wits done by some person or persons /le
111111110A with the way in which the,
door- were fIIbtVIIIId, and It IS supposed
that the rea.,,,n why they did not take
noire than they did was that they were
frightened from their Purpose by the
passing by of some late pode , drianc,
It might ho well for our police to
keep their e)es open for future opera
' eons of this kind These fellows may
be strangers here, but it is quite as like
ly that they are to the manor born. At
all events, a little wholesome discipline
In the county jail or the pewtentiary
might be beneficial to their moral
health. They have evidently boon
badly raised, and don't know much
about the ways of the world, else they
would never have thought of going to
our cellar to steal meat It was only
by an extraordinary streak of good luck
that they found any there, for we think
that was about the only time we over
Lad anything ahead of us in the provi
sion line. Those light-fingered gentry
might visit our cellar every night fur the
next six months, but we don't have any
idea they would find the like again.
How did we make out for something to
cat on Sunday, did you ask 1 Oh, we
made a breakfast on scraps in the morn
ing, and gime ourselves a very polite in
vitation to take dinner with a friend.
—Hand organs are flourishing now
a-days. Several spommedill were in
town this week, a couple accompanied
by monkeys and one or two by women

—Sheriff Woodring, on Monday
night, left this place with Charles But
ler—the rape-committing :negro--fur
the Western penitentiary at Allegheny
city, to which institution he was sen
tenced for two years. The Sheriff do
livered his prisoner the same night,
about two o'clock, to the authorities of
the penitentiary, and returned home on
Wednesday. This penitentiary has
now 363 inmates, eleven of whom aro
women. The penitentiary is in good
condition, and the officers are kind and
attentive to prisoners newel! as stran
gers. The system of solitary labor is
not practiced in this institution, the
convicts working in squads in shops in
the building. A more merciful and in
finitely bettor system, we think.
—The editor of the Tyrone I feraki
we are told, has chanted his residence
and adopted a new business—that of
raising pet rabbits. He has about a
dozen on hand and more scorning. His
greatest delight now is to stand in front
of the cage in which his pets aro confin
ed, and feed them spearsof grass through
the bars. Innocent rabbits I Happy
Brainerd. Surely, the millennium can
not be far distant.
—Amos Mullen & have pur
chased the "Bellefontei.eat Market"
on Bishop street, from Mr. B. V. Black.
and will hereafter run that institution
in lively style. Those gentlemen have
purchased alforMr.M. N: McAllister's
grain fed cattle, and say they will furn
ish meat of a bettor quality and Ml*
less price than can be had anywhere
else in town.
--The District Convention of the
Young Mons' Christian Association,
which was in session in this place on
Wednesday and Thursday, gave n street
meeting on the evening of each day.
The first was held at the junction of
Allegiiky'aVinlishop streets, more fa
miliarly known as "strychnine corner,"
at which the exercises consisted of sing
ing and prayer, with addresses by Gen.
Beaver, of this place, Mr. Morrow, of
Pittsburg, and Mr. Burnell, of Chicago.
Tho novelty of street preaching gather
ed quite a large crowd of people of both
sex es,till of whom listened attentively and
respectfully to the several discourses.
Later in the evening the convention re
assembled in the Methodist church,
where other exereisels took place. •
As we go to press another open-air
meeting is about to be held in front of
the Bush House, to which the people
are begining to gather. As we presume
the mode of proceedure will be about as
boor., we do not deem it necessary to
await its close. The sessions of the
Convention have been well attended,
and con interest manifested by
our people.

---The eccentricities of distinguish
ed men are unaccountable. A case in

zens attended a funeral on Sunday:last,
and while the services at the grave were

that it will one day be our sad duty to
chronicle the killing of one or more
small boys, so many of whom are in the
habit of collecting around the depot
when the cars arrive. Parents should
see to their children so that they may
not be called on to mourn thu death of
some beloved one.

the Tint that would attach to it Am
the commingling of northern, routhorn,

with the abilitity and fitness of the corps

comes around, when each one will de
cide it for himself. We shall be able to
give the result next week.
—The regular trains on the Bald
Eagle Valley railroad will resume run
Iling to this phew on or about the 15th

hero and Milesburg will be only 17
minutes, instead of 24, as formerly.—
This will do away with the dummy train
and restore matters to their former sta

now, wo wonder, for something to talk
about? Bellefonte is the place after all,
old Ganderlegs, isn't it

World Famed Zoological and Eques
trian organization will gratify the pub
lie of this place by giving two exhibi

This k really the "biggest thing on

in organizing and equipping it; 375
men and horses constitute the working
force; two monster tents around to ex

similar establishment in the world:pos

of wild apimals; and the circus is one
of rare excellence, and is held beneath a
tent en separafrd from the Men
agerie. One ticket for fifty cents, and
children twenty:live cents, admits to
both exhibitions.
The following statement of the num

—Below, we publish a letter from
Mr. J S liuhl, the individual of whom
we spoke somewhat disparaginlyi last
week, in regaLjj, to his leaving Ills wife.
Since then, 141 e have soon and conversed
with the gentleman, and are free to say
that he has been, perhaps, more sinned
against than sinning. It seems his
troubles have been mote the work of
mischief-makers than any fault of ~his
own, and if these meddlers would but
keep there mouths shut and attend to
there own business, the probability is
that he and his wife could arrange the
matter satisfactorily. We aro confident
that Mr. Rohl has been undeservedly
abused in the premises, and are:glad
thus to correct whateter (else mires-

Apparently, Mr Ruhl is an honora
ble young man c anxlous to do right, and
not willing to be unjust toward any one,
but just now is somewhat uncertain as
to what is the right thing for him to do.
His presence in Rebersburg now, is evi
dence that he has not run away, and he
expresses himself as determined to do
right if he can have half a chance. In
the meantime he trusts all busy-bodies
will attend to their own concerns.
