FAT FACT.—In one of the enterprising
and pecuniarily fat townships of this
county, lying South of the Nittany
mountain, resides a thirteen-year-old
girl who has attained the remarkable
weight of 240 pounds. We editorially
attest and vouch for this statement, as

COMING Ts.—Our agricultural friends,
quite through with their fall seeding,
are doing a lively business in.threshing
and grain sales and shipments. The rul
ing price for wheat seems to measurably
satisfy our farmers; or is, at least, suffi
cient to induce an active transfer from
producer to buyer. The price, and indi
cations, are of an upward tendency.

New FIRM --It is with pleasure we
ea the attention of nor readers to the
advertisement of D. M Wagner & Son
Mr. Wagner is one of our oldest and
mist successful business men, having
done business in our town, for over thirty
years. and aninsQed a very h iml4nme for
tune. ITe says that he has been orie of
the most extensive arrin deal2rs in the
county. Delso says that he has, du
ring that time, employed some forty dif
ferent young men as clerks, and sent
them all out first rate business men, and
now, having associated his son, W. S
Wagner, with himself in business, it is
his intention to meke Lim, if possible a
better business man than the head of the
firm.
YOUNG MEN'S CITEISTIAN ASSOCIATIONS.
—The Second State Convention of the
Associations of Pennsylvania will meet
at Williamsport, on Tuesday, November
2, 1809, at 71 o'clock, and close on
Thursday evening. Delegations from all
the Associations are expected, and the
attendance of ministers and others inter
ested in the cause, from churches in
places where no such organizations have
yet been formed, is also urged. Chris
tian young men in these places are re
quested to consult together, and see that
representatives are appointed. A cor
dial Christisu welcome is assured to all
who come. Delegates should be pro
vided with credentials, and their 'names
forwarded to Thomas K. Cree, Pittsburg.
Arrangements for reduced fare on the
principal lines of travel will probably be
made.
DEMOCRATIC CALAMITY.—We learn
from our Centre Hall reporter that our
distinguished friend and reader, Judge
Hosterman, met with a decidedly aggra
vating personal and political loss, on last
Sabbath evening. It seems that a va
grant set of unfeeling and unpolitic de
mocratic scalawags, unborn of virtue,
and devoid of Republican decency, did,
with malicious aforethought and wicked
intent, enter, and forcibly seize and con
vey beyond personal or political usoand
application,ONE BARREL of prime Stover
distilled whiskey !! ! The Packer fund
should be drawn upon to supply this de
ficiency. It was money; it was votes;
it was Democratic whiskey. Judge, give
us the names of these party traitors and
nocturnal dispensers of the democratic
spiritual fund ? Be forgiving { Judge;
the party must steal about so much, if it
don't went.

IthusTßATtets: —Moyers, (lliosikleyer's
neighbors, tell this story of the distin
guished oil speculator: Long years ago,
before his oil speculations had been suf
ficiently remunerative to enable him to
huy farms or houses. or induce him to
change Lis name, be induced en old
friend in Miles townah!p to raise" hint
a singing class. The class was raised,
and Moyer held his friend responsible
for the fee. His friend remonstrated;
hut, at leng , h, paid him; a. considerable
portion being front his ono pocket.—
Some weeks thereafter, Moyer discover
ed a bogus quarter among the many
his friend bad paid him, and 'tis said
the grateful speculator rode six miles to
the residence of his benefactor, and in
sisted upon his friends' replac'ng the
amount with good specie. What wont
gratitude induce a man to do?
SERIOUS ACCIDENT.-011r Centre Hall
reporter writes: Mr. William Keller,
while on his way to this village, in a
buggy, was most severely injured. His
horse became excited at the antics of a
colt in an adjoining field, and, despite
Mr. Keller's endeavors to quiet him,
dashed off at a furious rate. Ou turn
ing the corner net.r Spangler's Hotel,
Mr. K. was thrown from his vehicle, and
striking the wheel of a sulky near by,
lacerated his face fearfully, and injured
his chest somewhat. He was conveyed
to Mr. Spangler's Hotel, and soon after
wards to the residence of Mr. Daniel
Keller, where he still remains under the
medical supervision of our most distin
guished physician, Dr. P. D. Neff. The
horse continued on his mad career a
short distance, tore the wheels from the
buggy, and nearly left it a wreck.
IT MATTERS not how many news
papers a man takes, his list is incom
plete without his home paper. If that
paper is not just such as he would wish
he should feel that himself and neigh
bors are responsible, in a measure, for
its shortcomings. Give a paper a lib
eral support, an active sympathy, and it
will instantly respond to such manifes
tations. Let an editor feel that his
efforts are appreciated, and he is the
most responsible being on earth; his
paper being a part of himself, he is as
sensitive to praise or censure as a dat-
ing Father.
Nothing can supply the place of a
home paper. It is the mirror in which
the town and neighborhood news is re
flected; in the social, political and relig
ious circle it fills a place no other paper
can. When a need of economy compels
you to curtail your newspaper list,
strike off every other one before you say
to the publisher of your borne journal—
"stop my paper."

GOOD HOUSE.—Those of our friends
desirous of whiling away their spare
time with profit and pleasure, will do
well to visit our friend Harter, who is
"boss" of Harter's House, between Har
tleton and the Narrows, on the turnpike
leading from Mifflinburg to the Old Fort.

Drug House of French, Richards & Co.,
of Phil'a, in a letter to Dr. R.V. Pierce,
of Buffalo, N. Y., says: "Within the past
few months Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy
has found upon my list a most promising
place. There is in one good snuff of it
more virtue than is contained in a dozen
gackages of its worthless rivals that flood
tho market. Rest assured,DocLor,that my
appreciation of its merits, as realized
personally in my own case, will urge me to
use my best endeavors in introducing its
sale through our house.
Yours faithfully.
WALTER MUIR."

most Druggists everywhere. Sent. by mail

SEVERE ACCIDENT.-012 Saturday last,
Mr. Henry McCloskey, wife and child,
of Sprucoto WO, one mile below Potter's
Bank, started across the Seven moun
tains to visit friends at Reedsville, Mif
din county. Near the foot of the moun
tain, at the short turn, known to travel
lers ever that route, Mr. McCloskey's
animal became frightened at an upturn
ed cart left by the road-workmen, and
clashed off at a frightful speed, Mr. McG%
being unable to restrain the excited
beast. A short distance beyond the cart,
Mr. and Mrs. 'McCloskey and child were
thrown from their vehicle, and the pa
rents were rendered unconscious by the
shock received in contact with the stones.
The babe, most miraculously, escaped
any material injury. Mr. and Mrs.
McCloskey were discovered soon after
the accident, and were conveyed home.
Their injuries are not such as to pre
clude a belief in the recovery of the suf
ferers, but yet are of a serious and
alarming nature.
THE LOCAL Passe —The following very
sensible remarks in reference to the
value of the local press recently appear
ed in the columns of the Chicago Trib_
tine: "What tells us so readily the stan
ding of a town or city as the appearance
of its paper ? And its youth or age can
as well be defined by the observing as
by a personal notice. The enterprise of
its citizens is depicted by its adver
tisements, their liberality by the looks
of the paper. Some paper.show gond
solid, healthy foundation, r•le!horic pur
se., and a well-to-do appearance gen
erally; others show a striving to contend
with the grasping thousands around
them, trying hard to eke out an exist_
ence from the close fisted community
around them. An occasional meteoric
display in its columns of locals and edi•
torials, shows whit it can do if it. bad
the means, hut. cannot, continue in the
expensive work until support. comes ,
which ought to be readily granted. A
newspaper is like a church: it. wants
fostering at the commencement, and for
a few rare; then, as a general thing, it
can walk alone, and reflect credit upon
its location. Take your home paper; it
gives you more news of immediate in
terest than the. New York or other papers ;
it talks for you when other localities
belie you; it stands up for your rights:
you always have a champion in your
home paper; and those who stand up for
you should certainly he well sustained.
Your interests are mutual and you must
rise or fall together. Therefore, it is
your interest to support your home
paper, not grudgingly, but in a: liberal
spirit; as a pleasure, not as a disagree.
able duty; but as an investment that will
amply pay the expenditure."

REPUBLICAN MEETING.-A. large anti
enthusiastic meeting was held in the Re
publican Club Rooms, on Saturday night
last, in which there was more real genu•
hie enthusia-m manifested, than at any
previous meeting since the opening of
the present political campaign. The
meeting was called to order by our able
and efficient President, John Irwin, Jr.,
who followed in a brief and effeetive
speech as to the issues involved in the
present campaign, and the importance
of immediate and energetic action on
the part. of all good Republicans. Mr
Irwin closed his remarks by referring to
the national government at Washington,
its strict economy, and the rapidity in
which it was paying off the national
debt.
At the close of Mr. Irwin's remarks,
Col. W. W. Brown was loudly and re
peatedly called for, and favored us with
one of tho:e telling speeches for which
be is so kr-fly famed. Re rehearsed the
political history of the Democratic party
for the list eight years, and proved, to
all present, beyond a reasonable doubt,
that no political party could produce a
more unenviable history. That their
history was, in part, a history of arson,
robbery and murder, to whose cruelty
no parallel could he found among the
civilized nations, and to the most bar
barous and half civilized nations of the
East, we must turn, in vain. In alluding
to the finances of the Commonwealth,
Col. B. said, proving, by correct figures,
that they were never in a more healthy
condition, and the national debt was be
ing very rapidly reduced under the pre
sent administration—that it was the
duty of all good citizens to support the
Republican ticket at the coming election
—which would tend to strengthen our
national credit, and renew confidence in
the party which had so successfully car
ried our country through its late trouble.
On motion, a meeting was called
on next Tuesday night, for the purpose
of organizing a companyof Wide awakes,
and on next Saturday evening for the
purpose of nominating a borough ticket.

To our Patrons and the Palle Generally :
We hereby very respectfully give notice
that on Monday, Oct. 4th, 1.869 our mode of
doing businces will be changed from a
mixed credit and cash, to a strictly cask and
produc. system, and that on and after that
date we will positively sell no goods whatever
on credit.
Having tried the credit system for nearly
three yearsove found it both unpleasant and
detrimental to ourselvesand our customers,
we have concluded to try the cash system,
knowing that it will be beneficial to both
parties, as it must be plain to everybody
that goods sold for cash only can be sold
cheaper than if sold on credit. We there
fore propose to sell our goods cheaper than
heretofore, and, as usual, to treat all who
may give us a call as pleasantly as possible,
promising to always have on hand a com
plete stock of the most clisirable goods in
the market.
Thanking you for your liberal patronage
we give you a cordial invitation to continue
the same.
Yours Very Respectfully

And wore out all their clothing.
