DEATH OK MRS. WHARTO.V. —We were pained
to learn, on Tuesday evening last, of the
death of Mrs. Anna Wharton, wife of Henry
S. Wharton, Esq, of this borough. Mrs.
Wharton, by numerous acts ol' friendship,
combined with all Hie graces and accomplish
ments of a true, noble and refined lady, had
drawn around her a large circle of friends
who ware wont to bak in the sunlight of her
society, and had so endeared herself in the
affections of our town people generally, that
the intelligence of her decease caused the
deepest regret which has been manifested in
our town for years. She leaves, behind her,
besides her husband, five small children, the
youngest of which Lad scarcely seen the light
of this world eie its mother's spirit fled from
earth. Having in our youth experienced a
similar loss, we can feelingly sympathize with
these little ones in their desolation, and the
father iu his bereavement. May they not for
get that ' whom the Lord loveth hecbas
teneth," and that their mother awaits their
coming in a brighter and better land. — Hun
tingdon Monitor.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.— On Monday night last
about 10 o r clock, afire broke out, in the Har
nc- and Sadlery shop of Cook A Zimmer
man, on Allegheny street, this place, which
wa burned to the ground. The fire rapidly
communicated to the residence and lager
beer saloon of Jos. Sanker, and another
frame tenement on the North, and to several
mall frame buildings on the South, all of
which were totally destroyed. The buildings
being of frame, the fire spread with great ra
pidity, and the exertions of the firemen and
citizens were mainly directed to saving the
surrounding properties, which, thanks to the
stillness of the night, they were enabled to
do. Most of the occupants of the burned
buildings succeeded in saving all their effects
though in a damagad condition.
It is not positively known how the fire orig
inated. Messrs. Cook A Zimmerman we
understand, were fully insured in one of the
companies for which Mr. Kerr, of Altoona,
is the agent. Corporal Sanker was insured,
we believe, in the Blair County Company.
The balance of the buildings were not of
much account, pecuniarily. — Jlol. Standard,

WHAT NEWSPAPERS no FOR Norm NO. — the
following article should be read and ponder
ed well by every man who takes a newspaper
without paying for it : My observation ena
bles me to state, a* a fact, that publishers of
newspapers are more poorly rewarded than
any other class of men in the I ntted States
who invest an equal amount of labor, capital
and thought. They are expected to do more
service for less pay, to stand more sponging
aud '-dead heading," to puff and defend more
people without fee or hope of reward,
than any other class.
They credit wider and longer, get oftc-ner
cheated, suffer more pecuniary loss, are of
tc-ner the victims of misplaced confidence than
any other calling in the community. People
pay a printer's bill with more reluctance than
any other. It 'roes harder with them to ex
pend a dollar on a valuable newspaper frhan
ten on a needless gewgaw ; yet everybody
avails himself of the editor's pen and the
printer's ink.
How many profe: iouai and political repu
tations and fortunes have been made and sus
tained by the friendly though unrequited pen
of the editor. How many embryo towns and
cities have been brought into notice and puff
ed into prosperity by the press ? How many
railroads, now in successful operation, would
have been foundered but for the ; 'lever that
moves the world V In short, what branch
of industry and activity has not been promo
ted, stimulated and defended by tne press ?
And who ha: tendered it more than a mis
erable pittance for its service ? The bazaars
of fashion and the haunts of dissipation and
appetite are thronged with an eager crowd,
bearing gold in their palms, and the commod
ities there vended are sold at enormous
profits, though intrinsically worthless, and
paid lor with scrupulous punctuality ; while
the counting room of the newspaper is the seat
of Jewing, cheapening trade, orders and pen
nies. It is made a point of honor to liqui
date a grog bill, but not of dishonor to repu
diate a printer's bill.
DEATH OK GEORGE A. BUCHANAN. —Another
brave man has gone to his rest. It is our
painful duty to announce that Sergeaut Geo.
A. Buchanan is no more. This noble young
man died, on the Istinst., of Tyohoid fever,
at lyler. Smith conuty, Texas. Sergeant
Buchanan was born and raised near Hope
well, Bedford county, in this State, and pre
vious to the breaking out of the rebellion
located in New Orleans. While the war was
in progress he was forced to enlist in the reb
el army or be conscripted. Preferring the
former, he volunteered as a private in the
First Louisiana rebel regiment, intending to
desert at tie first favorable opportunity. lie
finally accomplished this purpose, and was
one of three who escaped from the Southern
army, and by means of a skiff reached Fort
Pickens and surrendered to the Union forces
there, from whence he came North.
At a subsequent period the subject of this
notice, enlisted uff a private in Co. C, 133 d
Penn'a. regiment, a nine months organiza
tion, and before the expiration of the term
ot service he was promoted to a Lienteuant
cy. At the battle of Fredricksburg, the 133 d
became engaged with the first Louisiana reb
el regiment, and Lieutenant Buchanan rallied
his men and fought desperutely against that
body, knowing that if defeated or captured
he would be put to death. Fortunately he
did not fall into their hands. When the
194 th Penn'a regiment (one hundred day
men) was organized Mr. Buchanan became
First Scigeant ofCo. D, commanded by Capt.
George Boss, of this city, and was with bis
c-ompany in Maryland. Before his time ex
piled he re-enlisted, going into the Ninth
Pennsylvania Cavalry, with which he served
until it was mustered out. He subsequently
entered the regular army, becoming Quarter
master Sergeant of Co. F, Sixth I. S. Caval
ry, with which he was connected at the time
of his death, on the Ist inst., the company
being on duty at Tyler, Texas. From a let
ter written by a fellow-oflicer, we learn that
the remains of deceased were placed in a neat
coffin, and interred with the usual military
honors. The death of Sergt. Buchanan is
deeply lamented by all the members and
oflieers of the company, as he seems to have
been a favorite of all.
Sergt. Buchanan sojourned in Harrisburg
at intervals between his enlistments, and
made many acquaintances here. All who
knew him will deplore his death. He was a
most estimable young man, true to his friends
exemplary in his conduct, patriotic in the
fullest sense of the term, and one of the bra
vest soldiers in the service. During the bat
tle of l-'redricksburg he received a bullet near
bis abdomen, producing a wound that would
have exempted him from further service,
andj which would have caused almost any
other person ta have applied for a discharge.
But Buchanan continued in service, and bore
his wound until his death. — Jlarrisburg Tel

Cheering Facts for the IJillious.
Every day demonstrates more clearly that Liv
er Complaint, in all its distressing forms, can be
controlled and cured without difficulty or inconve
nience- It is an obstinate disease, but its obsti
nacy is not proof against the pertinacious, reme
dial and restorative operation of IIOSTFTTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS. That genial corrective
compels the organ to do its duty. It ir.uit secrete
regularly and healthfully under tlic influence of
the Bitters. Their action brings it back from a
state of rebellion into perfect harmony with the
laws of health. If there is costive;,c s, it disap
pears, if there is >ide ache or back-ache it ceases:
if the skin and the whites of the eyes arc tinged
with supcrflous bile, they recover their natural
hue: if the appetite is gone, it returns: if tfte di
gestion is impaired, it is restored; in brief, what
ever the symptoms of the complaints may be, and
whatever the pha;,: it has assumed, a cure is cer
tain. Such are the uniform effects of this prepa
ration where bilious disease has been already de
veloped: but in cases where there is merely a con
stitutional tendency to liver complaint, it may be
prevented throughout life by the regular use. in
small quantities, of this palatable antidote.
These are proven facts, and should be seriously
pondered, or, rather, they should be promptly
acted upon, by perrons of bilious habit.
Sehenck , s Seaweed Touic.
This medicine, invented by Dr J. 11. Sctcnek,
of Philadelphia, Is intended to dissolve the food
and make it into chyme, the first process of diges
tion. By cleansing the . tornaeh with Schenek's
Mandrake Pills, the Tonic soon restores the appe
tite, and food that could Hot be eaten before using
it will be easily digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenek's
Pulmonic Syrup unless the stomach and liver is
made healthy and the appetite restored, hence the
Tonic and Pills arc required in nearly every case
of consumption. A half dozen bottles of the
SEAWEED TONIC and three or four boxes of the
MANDRAKE PILLS will cure any ordinary case
of dyspepsia.
Dr. Schcnck makes professional visits in New
York, Boston, and at hi principal office in Phila
delphia evevv week. See daily papers of each
place, or his pamphlet m con umption for his days
of visitation.
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two
likenesses of the Doctor, one when in the la.-t
stage of Consumption, and the other as he now is,
in perfect health, are on Government stamp.
Sold by all Druggusts and Dealers' price $1.50
