BEDFORD, PA., FRIBIY, NOV. 0. 1866.
THEFT. —Samuel Stakl, of the Bedford Ho
tel. bad, one day last week, a new suit of
clothes taken from his room by some unknown
thief.
lfWOn next Sabbath at 101 o clock A. M.
Rev. A. H. Miller will commence, in the M.
K. Church, in this place, a series of sermons
on the Centenary of Methodism. The sub
ject for Sabbath will be. The Origin and
Primitive features of Methodism.
We learn with pleasure that Eby,
Morrison & Co. have their paper mill partly
up again and that they expect it to be in run
ning order by the first of January. These
gentleman have been most singularly unfortu
nate, but with all their misfortunes they have
manifested a spirit of enterprise that is most
creditable.
BOUNTIES. —The act equalizing bounties ha
become a law. Persons who enlisted in 1861-
'2, and who were only entitled to, and receiv
ed $lOO, are now entitled to another $lOO in
addition. The heirs of all deceased soldiers
of this class are entitled to $lOO. All appli
cations to DURBORROW & LUTZ, Bedford, wil
promptly attenden to. ♦<"-
t$5L>A revival of religion has been in pro
gress in the M. E. Church, in this place, du
ring the last month. Up to this time, some
thirty souls have been converted to God : and
others are still inquiring "What must we do
io be saved."
I NSTAI.I.ATIOX. —The Rev. A. It. C. Schenck,
Pastor elect of the Presbyteriau church of
this place, will (D. V.) be installed on Sun
day the 18th inst.. by a committee of the Gar
ble Presbytery. Services to commence at 11
n'clock A. M.
The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper will

PAY UP ! PAY UP! ! —We are compelled to
ask those indebted to us for subscriptions,
advertising, job woik. &c., to pay up, as we
are very much in need of monßy. Court
veek will be an excellent time to discharge
ail such small obligations. Those not com
ing in themselves can send iuthe amount due
with their neighbors.
THE CORN CROP. —The Cincinnati Price
Current states that, notwithstanding the con
tradictory reports about frost and floods, the
corn crop will undoubtedly be a large one,
although a small portion of it will be unsound,
ihe general estimate of the aggregate corn
crop of the United States for 1800 is over
1.050,000,000 bushels.
BURGLARY. —The Confectionary of George
Mardorff was entered one night aw eek or two
ago by breaking open a back window. The
burglar appropriatad a large number of nickel,
a dollar or two of scrip and a twenty dollar
bill on the Petroleum Bank. On last Satur
day a negro named Barnes presented a twenty
dollar bill, answering the description of the
bill taken, at the Banking House of Reed A
Schell, but before he could be arrested he
fled the country.
A Goon SUGOKSTION. — "A Travelled Par
,-on" writes to an Knglish paper: l, ln some
parts of Germany every bottle containing
poison is labelled with a death's head and
cross bones, as black as printer's ink can
paint them. Every parcel of poisonous medi
cine scut to the patient has a similar label
cverthe address. Pray help me to urge upon
our chemists and druggists the adoption of
this very simple method, which is plainly
within the comprehension of the dullest boy
that ever handled a pestle and mortar."
RAISING RADISHES IN WISTKR. —If it be re
quired to get good radishes in winter during
the severe cold, an old cask should be sawn
; nto two, and one half of it filled with good
earth. The radish seed, beginning to shoot,
must be then sown in it, and the other half of
the barrel put on the top of the full one, and
then placed in the cellar. For watering,
lukewarm water should be used. In the
courie of a few days the radishes will be fit to
The following is a method for raising
radishes early in the spring:
Let some good radish seed soak in water
for twenty-four hours, then put them in a bag
and expose to the sun. In the course of the
day germination will commence. The seed
must then be sown in a well-manured hot bed
and watered from time to time with lukewarm
water. By this treatment the radishes will in
a very short time* acquire a sufficient bulk,
and be good to eat. — GalignanV s Messenger.
A FIENDISH ACT BY A DEVII. INCARNATE.
—the barn-of Win. J. Goshorn of Tell Town
ship, Huntingdon county, was utterly con
sumed with all its contents on ihe morning ol
2-ld mst.. by being set fire to by a desperado
named Joseph Matthews. Matthews, who
resides in Blacklog Valley, approached the
premises of Mr. Goshorn on the morning
aforesaid, making demands of Mr. Goshorn
which he refused to concede: whereupon
Matthews entered the barn, and deliberately
set fire io the hay: all the while holding Mr.
Goshorn at bay from extinguishing the (lames
with rifle and pistols with which he was arm
ed, until the fire had full sway. He then
wade for Shade Mountain across the fields of
Mr. Goshorn, shooting and killing three of
his horses to complete his fiendish deed.
Matthews is still at large. One hundred dol
ars are offered for his arrest. The barn was
a new one yet unfinished. No insurance.—

A notable instance of the capacity of
tin-colored man for civilization is found in
the statement that the negro barber of the
Ottawa House, Montreal, absconded last
week, taking with him from $lO,OOO to $14,-
000 in borrowed money, $7OO in jewelry,
and sNtto in clothing. He was traced into
'rm lit. by one of his creditors, but the
"harp thief s wife had tak'-n another track
with ail the plunder in her possession.
A POLITICAL MEETING.
LETTER FROM PILKKIM.
Pilgrim does not profess to be a politician.
He claims the privilege of doing justice to
all, of loving every body and of standing
upon his own platform. Having familiarized
himself wiih the past history of our country,
and with the maneeuvreing of party tacticians
for some years—the instincts of patriotism,
of morality and of virtue, prompt hiin to be
true to the flag of our country, and to affiliate
with the men who adhere to the principles of
democratic representative government as
taught by our revolutionary fathers, and pro
mulgated by Washington, Jefferson, the
Adams, Webster, and the gallant Harry Clay
in the palmy days which are past. Hence
Pilgrim shrinks from Secession, Treason and
Rebel rule as from the blighting simoom of
the desert, or the death-distilling shades of
the upas tree. Let not the readers ot the
INQCIKER be alarmed. It is not the writers
object to bore them with a dull and prosy
article upon the abstract questions of Govern
ment, State Rights, and Constitutional pow
ers. He simply designs to relate an incident
or two, and then take his staff and hasten on
his pilgrimage. During the late canvas in
the good old Keystone State, he chanced to
be in a small village, not one hundred miles
distant from the celebrated Bedford Springs.
The dim twilight of a calm autumnal evening
4md spread its magic charm over valley and
mountain. The usually quiet village was a
stir 1 "My Policy'' men —a small division
of the bread aud-buttcr-brigade, were to have
a meeting in the dingy dilapidated old school
house on the out-skirts of the village. Pil
grim was caught in the motley stream of min
gled humanity flowing toward the place of
meeting. It seemed as though the Prince of
Pandemonium had given holiday. Oaths
and imprecations burdened the eery air. Had
any pure spirits been hovering round, they
certainly spread their bright pinions, and
soared away from that scene of darkness and
of sin. Reaching the school house, he did
not realize what he had anticipated, "A feast
of reason, and a flow of soul." The young
orator might possibly have done better with
abetter cause. He stated .that the l 'Xegro
was the issue," but beyond that point he ven
tured not. Pilgrim was satisfied that party,
not patriotism, was his motive power. An
exploring expedition on the coast of Africa,
would doubtless be of advantage to his rising
genius ! The next speaker was a plain man,
said to be from the county-town. He looked
as though he had seen better days, and min
gled in better society. Tn his opening re
marks he informed the audience that he had
formerly been an "old-line whig." We al
most involuntary exclaimed. "Poor sinner,
he has fallen from grace, and is in a back
slidden state !" What a sad sight to see a
former follower of the gallant Clay affiliating
with the clan of political non descripts, who
stood not firmly by the flag of their country
during the dark days of sorrow and trial.
The inexperienced speaker soon encountered
the ghost ofSambo. Nervousness succeeded
confusion was worse confounded, and the
crest-fallen orator took his seat, apparently
overwhelmed with au unpleasant conscious
ness of having made a splendid failure.
Leaving the place, and passing through the
swearing, bellowing crowd# we inwardly
said Alas ! for "My Policy !" and resolved to
standby Geary, Congress and the Union !
Nov. 8, 18G6. PILGRIM.
N. B. Pilgrim has just learned from the
Gazette , the gratifying fact that a literary
comet has made its appearance just above the
horizon in the "New State of Southampton!"
We bespeak for "HOMKSPCK" akindrecep
tion in—in refined circles. Proper allowance
should be made for his uueouthness. He may
improve by application. His undue nervous
nesss is much to be regretted. As South
ampton has no resident physician, we would
suggest in his case, lihubarb and mandrake,
to be taken in small quantities, as occasion
may require. Should symptoms of - te
intellectual effervescence manifest themselves,
cold applications may be used to advantage.
Prompted by pure sympathy, we give medical
advice gratis.
Cheering Facts for the Billious
Evciy day demonstrates mure clearly that Riv
er Complaint, in all its distressing forms, can he
controlled and c'ured withrmt difficulty or inconve-
nience. It is an obstinate disease, hut its obsti
nacy is not proof against the pertinacious, reme
dial and restorative operation of HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS. That genial corrective
compels the organ todo its duty. It must ccrete
regularly and healllifuly under the 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 costivcness, it disap
pears. if there is side ache or hack-ache it ceases:
if the skin and the whites of the eyes are tinged
with euperflous bile, they recover their natural
hue: if the appetite is gone, it returns: if tne di
ge-tion is impaired, it is restored: in brief, what
ever the symptoms of the complaints may he, and
whatever the phase it has assumed, a cure is. cer
tain. -u-.-h are the uniform effect* of this prepa
ration where bilious disease ha been already de
veloped; hut in ca?< - where there is merely a con
stitutional tendency to liver complaint, it may he

small quantities, of this palatable antidote.
