SAVE YOUR MONEY. —If our subscribers
who are in arrears for subscriptions to the
IVQUIKEK, desire to save money, they can do
so by paying up before or at the February-
Court, as we intend charging all who are in
arrears after that time $2,50 and those who
do not pay within the year, $3.00 while
all those who pay up at or before that time
will be left off with $2,00. We are compell
ed to this course because we are too heavily
involved to lay out of our money two or three
years. We want to do every thing for our
patrons that we can consistently and
in return they must pay up promptly.
Paper, ink, labor, rent, count up to almost
fabulous rates, and we must keep close ac
counts. Take our advice and save the EXTRA
DOLLAR. Two dollars per year to-day are
worth more to us than three can possibly be
three or four years after this even if we do
only make half a living, SAVE YOER MONEY.
OUR readers will find an interesting and
instructive Dialogue on the first page of this
paper, welworthy of perusal.
Rev. Barrow will deliver the fourth
of his sermons on the Women of the New
Testament at the Court Honse next Sabbath
afternoon. Subject: "The Woman that was
a Sinner." Services at 11 A. M. and 3J P.

A DWELLING HOUSE BURNED. —The resi
dence of Joseph Shirk, in Middle Woodberry

There was no insurance as usual. The fire
occurred from an imperfect flue. We have
heard very few particulars.

menced two suits, for libel, one against Mey

ult., Treasury Certificate No. 210,589 for
§500.20, in favor of Mary A. Beltz, widow of
Abraham Bcltz, late of Company G, 101 st
Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers, was for
warded from the office of the editors of this
paper, through the Bedford Post Office, to
Schellsburg, to receive the signature of the
claimant. We are informed that it never
came to hand. The clerk in the Bedford of
fice recollects, very distinctly, our mailing it
here, and the only manner we can account
for its loss, is that it must have been given
out at Schellsburg to some person not enti
tled to receive it. If any such person or per
sons have received it. they will please hand it
to Mrs. .Mary A. Bcltz, or to the editors of
this paper, immediately. Payment has been

llroad Top Correspondence.
HELENA, Pa., Jan. 26, 1866.
MESSRS. EDITORS: —Last evening, the 24th
inst., a goodly portion of the people of Broad
Top City, Fairplay, Dudley, aud other places,
in the vicinity of the Broad Top coal region,
were permitted, aud highly gratified to meet
at the new Methodist Meeting House, in He
lena for, the express purpose of listening to
the celebrated oratress, Miss Susannah Evans,
in the recital of her popular and entertainiug
lecture, entitled, "The Soldier's Empty
Sleeve." After due process of organization,
by the choice of Rev. Wm. li. Jones, as pres
ident of the meeting, assisted by a corps of
eight Vice Presidents, consisting of Messrs.
David Rowland, Richard Crook, Jno. Morris,
Jno. 0. Jones, T. D. Rees, D. W. Williams,
Thomas Swain, and O. G. McCrillis, and by
the choice of Mr. Silas Evans, as Sec'y to re
port proceedings to the Welsh press, and 0.
G. Crillis to report to the English press.
This much being done and the process of
organization completed, our first pleasure was
to listen to the discoursing of a splendid piece
of music by the Helena Choir, whose services
had been secured for the occasion, under the
direction of Mr. Silas Evans. We should not
feel justified by omitting to mention in this
place, that much credit is due this body of
singers, for the admirable manner in which
they rendered their several parts, as as a con
sequence, adding much to the pleasures of
the occasion. After which the President,
with a few preliminary remarks,introduced to
the audience the oratress of the evening. The
speaker after repeating the subject of her lec
ture. and mentioning its several synonyms,
among which were courage, fidelity, and oth
er cardinal virtues, convinced the audience
that she was mistress of her subject, mention
ing in their several connections, most prorai
inently, the gallant defenders of our country,
the officer and the common soldier —and ma
king favorable and eloquent especial mention
of our Grant, our Sherman and our Sheridan
. J
touching upon various interesting points in
American history, aptly delineating our du
ties as citizens, to the soldier, and no less
aptly portraying the duties of the soldiers, to
themselves, in resisting and overcoming the
vice of intemperance, and the other sordid
animal appetites of humanity, and the sus
taining of good characters ns citizens—advo
cating the erection of some suitable mouu
tnent in every county in our Union, to the
memory of our brave soldier dead, either in
shape of column, granite monument, or me
morial halls, with each and every soldiers
name of the county who may have fought for,
or lain down his life for his country and his
people, plainly and prominently engraved
thereon, that in addition to the already made
record inscribed upon the tablet of our hearts,
we may have still other monitors to point us
to our duty, and to the past, that succeeding
generations shall look upon them, and won
der of the great revulsion our country with
stood, and the fearless daring of its brave de
fenders —and closing with an eloquent tri
bute to our country, in view of its greatness,
the value aud superiority of its institutions,
its immense area, and last, but not least, its
genuine feeedem. We can, in this connec
tion, do no more than to repeat the expressed
sentiment of all, that the subject was well
handled. With a splended rendering of
"The Sword of Bunker Hill," by the choir,
the meeting adjourned, and the company,
fully satisfied, made their way to their res
pective hemes. We must not omit to men
tion that it is due to our esteemed citizen,
Thomas John, Esq., that it was mainly
through his enterprise and liberality, that we
were permitted to enjoy the rich treat. We
can only wish that we all may be witness of
many such recurring scenes of pleasure and
profit. ORANGE G. M'CRILLIS, Secy.

THE
NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
1886-
Our uioet Momentous, arduous straggle baring
resulted in the triumph of American Nationality,
the utter discomfiture and overthrow of Secession
and Slavery, Taa Tribini, profoundly rejoicing
in this result, will labor to conserve the legitimate
fruits of this grand, benignant victory by render
ing Liberty and Opportunity the common heri
tage of the whole American People aow and ever
more.
Discountenancing ail unmanly exultation over
or needless infliction of pain or privation on the
upholders of the lost cause, it will insist on the
earliest possible restoration of the Southern State?
to their former power and influence in our Union
on the basis of All Rights for All their People.
It will labor in hope to prove that the substitu
tion of Free for Slave Labor must inevitably and
universally conduce to the increase of Industry,
Thrift, Prosperity and Wealth, so that tbe South,
within the next ten years, must look back amazed
on her long persistence in a practice so baleful as
the chattelizing of Man.
It will labor for the diffusion of Common School
Education, Manufactures, the Useful Arts, Ac.,
Ac., throughout every portion of our country, but
especially throughout the sections hitherto devoid
01 them, believing that every good end will there
by he subserved and the interest of every useful
and worthy class promoted.
It will urge the Protection of Home Industry
by discriminating duties on Foreign Products im
ported, with a view to drawing hither the most
capable and skillful artificers and artisans of Eu
rope, and the naturalizing on our soil of many
branches of production hitherto all but confined
to the Old World, while it would strengthen and
extend those which have already a foothold
among us.
It will give careful attention to progress and
improvement in Agriculture, doing its best at
once to bring markets to the doors of our farmers
and teach them how to make the most of the op
portunities thus afforded them.
It will devote constant attention to Markets, es
pecially for Agricultural Products, with intent to
save both producer and consumer from being vie
timized by the speculator and forestalled
And, giving fair scope to Current Literature, to
the proceedings of Congress, and to the general
News of the Day, it hopes to retain its old patrons
and attract many new to bear them company.
\\ e rarely employ traveling agents, as so many
impostors are habitually prowling in the assumed
capacity of solicitors for journals. We preferthat
our subscribers shall pay their money to persons
they know and of whose integrity they are assur
ed. Any friend who believes he will do good by
increasing the circulation of the Tribune is author
ized to solicit and receive subscriptions. Speci
men coyiea will be promptly sent without charge
to those requiring them, and we trust many friends
will be moved to ask their neighuors and acquain
tances to join in making up their clubs.

This Company has been organized for the pur

six (8) separate, distinct, Silver-bearing Lodges
or Lodes in San Antonio Mining District, Nye
