THE BRITISH PERIODICALS.—' The attention of our readers is called to the advertizement on our first page of the reprint of the leading British Periodic als. They contain the most instructive, interesting and various information to be found in the whole cir cle of periodical literature. THE funeral of Maj. W. W. Anderson was attend ed last week Friday afternoon from his fathers house, by a large concourse of people- He was buried with military honors. Lieut, W. P. Barndol lar being in command. Dr. AV. Watson, son of Dr. W. H. Watson has lately been home on a s'asrt visit from tb army.— \\ e learn that he has a'.ready won an honorable dis tinction as a surgeon ond promises to stand among the very foremost of his profession. THE TRIBUNE AI/JIANAC for TBVJS has been sent us by the publishers. This almanac has become or ought to become indispensable in every well regula ted household, besides, those not so well regulated, as well as in every edfiee and counting-room. It contains a 1 sige awount of interesting matter of permanent value, handsomely printed for twenty cent. \ IS IT ORS.— —Mr. King, editor of the Fulton Re public aa, aa<d Mr. Fletcher of McConnellsburg, paid our '/iwn a visit last Thursday. We hope they ap- P r ' jciated the signs of thrift, progress and improve r jent, everywhere more or less apparent to the intel ligent observer. The editor was considerably car ried away with our new power press, but the thought •of an ancient Washington, in a snug office down the line, brought on a fit of extreme dejection. We sym palhiae with him on that subject. We were glad to knew that the Republican is flourishing and easy, as is patriotic and racy. GEORGE D. HALL. —From an advertisement ap pearing in another column, it will be seen that Mr. Hall, who is widely and favorably known among our business men, succeeds to the business of Lyon, Shorb k Co., in the manufacture and sale of iron, in this city. Mr. Hall has for nearly ten years been in charge of the business of the house in the \\ est, in whose hands it has greatly prospered, and no one who has had dealing with him will fear that, under his sole control, the high reputation which the house has achieved will suffer any domination.— St. Louis Democrat. FIRE IS Ai.rooNA.—On Sunday night a week, the store of John H. Fretchey was consumed by fire. The meat market house, adjoining the store, was torn away, thus preventing the fire from being com municated to Miss Jennie Scott's house. A slight snow, which had fallen in the early part pf the night, prevented the sparks from setting fire to the roof of other houses on which they fell. How the tire originated is not certainly known, but it is sup posed to be the work of an incendiary. There was no fire in the store on Sunday. The clerk, who sleeps in the store, was awakened by the smoke which came up through the floor at the back part of the building. He bad hardly time to get out through the window, with only his shirt and panta loons, as the floor was giving away when he was awakened. Almost everything in the store was burned. We have not heard an estimate of the loss, but understand it is fully covered by insurance.— Altoona Tribune. ASTHMA OR PHTHISIC.—A spasmodic affecton of the Bronchial i übes, "which are covered with a dry, tenacious Bronchial Troche*' j £ac cages givu immediate relief- The Souther* (hqrtloWnis Railroad. As the fertgineeirs have completed the survey and location erf this Hew road froita CohnetlsviHe ft> Bed lord, aid paused in their operhtidoi, h tumor has got afloat that the company dutl- not intend to build any more than that portion of the work. It is true that the company inteud to build, finish and put this part of the line in operation before attempting any other. But it is not true that the rest of the work is to be abandoned. The Huntingdon and Broad i Top Railroad extends to Bedford, at which place it ! will meet thus hew road aVid uohheet with it. From i Bedford to Oonnellsvjllle is a division of road, which cannot fee trfc&i without some very heavy tunnel-work through the mountains, and when finished it is obvi ously the best policy to put the road in operation by meansof the Broad Top connection. This would at oncemake a through route from Philadelphia, viaHar risburg, Huntingdon, Bedford and Oounellsvilta to Pittgbvrg, and would afford an opportunity for bring ing into market the valuable mineral lands of the Southern tier of counties. It would funiish also an avenue to market for thte oil of th'e Dunkarfi Creek region, besides increasing enormously the business of the railroad from Huntingdon to Bedford.— Phila Mwffc A**#rican of Tuesday. COMMON SCHOOLS IN PENNSYLVANIA. —The report of the Superintendent of Common Schools of Pennsylvania, for the year ending June Ist, 1864, contains much information in regard to the work ing of our school system, which will interest all who care for education and training of the youths of our State.

While in some respects there has been a falling off from the past year, on the whole the exhibit is encouraging, and shows that we have kept steadily increasing the means of educating our young people in all parts of the Com monwealth.

We have received the sorrowful intelli gence that our worthy Brother, Ephraim F. Bar nett, a private in the Army of the United States, lost his life by the ill-treatment of the enemies of our country while a prisoner in Georgia, therefore. Resolved. That we deeply deplore the sad fate of our deceased brother who had to endure so many hardships during his captivity. Resolved. That although our deceased brother suffered much in life, yet we learn, he bore all af fliction and persecution with resignation and for bearance, and we do now, as heretofore, esteem his conduct as becoming a good citizen and a true sol dier. Resolved. That although we mourn the loss of so kind a brother, who as a citizen and Soldier was re spected and esteemed by all who knew him, still we hope the change which is such a sad loss to us, was gain for him and that he receives the blessings that await every good pilgrim. Resolved. That the preceedings of this Lodge be published in the Bedford IXQCIRER and Bedford Ga zette. By order of the Lodge. JOHN I. NOBI.K, 1 GEO. R. HOLSIKOER, [• Committee.

For many years hate I suffered from one of the most an noting and debilitating complaints-that the human ami ly'wui be afflicted with, Chr. nie Diarrhea. During tbe long time I was suffering from this.disease, r was attended by regular physicians, giving me bat tem porarv rciief. The cause seemed to remain until I was induced to try Hooflund's German Bitters. After the use of a few bottles of that valuable medicine, the complaint appeared to be completely eradicated. I often inwardly thank yon for such a valuable specific and, whenever I have an opportunity, cheerfully recom mend it, with fall confidence in its reliability. Truly yours, John B. Wickershah.

Gentlemen: In reply to your inquiry as to tho effect produced by the use of Uoofland's German Bitters, in mv family, I have no hesitation in saying that it has been highly beneficial. In one instance, a ease of dyspepsia of thirteen rears' standing, and which had become very dis tressing,'the use of one bottle gave decided relief, the sec ond affecting a cure, and the third, it seems, has confirmed the cure, for there has been no symptoms of its return for the last six vetrs.

Jones k F vans— Gentlemen: ] I have recently been laboring under the distressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a prostration of tha nervue system, numerous re [bodies were recommended by riends. and some of them tested, but without relief. Your Hoofiand's German Bitters were recommended by parsons who had tried them, and whose favorable mention of the Bitters induced me also to try them. I must confess that I had an aversion to Patent Medicines, from the '-thousand and one" quack "Bitters" whose only aitq seems to be to palm off sweetened and drugged liquor upon the community, in a sly way? and the tendency of which, I fear, is to make many a confirmed drunkard. I pou learning that yours was really a medicine preparation, I took it with happy effect. Its action wns not upon only the stomach, but upon the nervous system, was prompt and gratifyiog- I feel that I have derived great and permanent benefit from a. .r >„.
