The American Senate, Down in a Coal Mine, Black Sheep, Foreign Notes, New Year's Eve. ANOTHER DUN. —Dunning is something that we are very loth to do, yet, judging from the appearance of our subscription lists and the unsettled charges upon our books, it ap pears to be absolutely necessary. People who make it a point to pay promptly do not relish our dunning, but our duns are not in tended for this class, they arc intended for those who never pay without being dunned. We have several thousand <lollv do* i, which we stand in need of very much,and which tee hope our friends tr ill not fail to pay over at the approaching weeks of Court. If you who are indebted to us, are not coming in yourself, hand the sum due us over to your neighbor, who is coming and leave him take our receipt for it. We are endeavoring to give our readers a good paper at nearly twice the expense that was incurred in printing the same paper four years ago, and while we ate under many obligations to the people through out the county for the hearty support which they have given us ; (there are very few pa pers in the country more liberally supported in proportion to the number of inhabitants than the INQUIRER ;) ice must have the mon ey promptly to continue our business and to do justice to those who expect us to press for " d th; good work which we have begun.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE IS JOHNSTOWN !—At two o'clock on Sunday morning last occurred one of the most destructive fires that ever visited Johnstown. Some gentleman passing up Main street at that hour discovered that the hat store of George Turner, three doors from the north-east corner of Main and Franklin streets, was on fire, and at once sounded the alarm. In a few minutes sever al persons were on the ground, and the store room was broken open. It was found that the flames had enveloped the counters and the goods upon the shelves, and that it was impossible even to enter the burning building. Water thrown upon the flames failed to quench them or even to stay their progress. Then the truth flashed upon the minds of the persons present that the entire row of build ings of which the hat store formed a part would probably be involved in the conflagra tion, and efforts were promptly made to arouse the whole town to fight the devouring clement. And the flames did spread, until they enwrapped the grocery store and dwel ling of Fredrick Border, the drug store of C. T. Frazer, the book store of Alexander Montgomery and the iaw office of John Barnes, Esq., overhead, the saddle and har ness establishment of H. M. Lewis, the la dies' dress goods store of Miss Mary J. Parke, the clothing store of Isaac E. Chandler ana the adjoining residence of James Williams, all on Main Street, and the grocery store and residence of David Creed on Franklin street. As usual, although a vast crowd soon as sembled, great difficulty wa3 experienced in forming lines to the nearest pumps. Some time was also lost before the Vigilant fire-en gine was brought on the ground. When it came it did good service, and we think is en titled to the credit of preventing the fire from spreading beyond the limits it attained. In perhaps naif an hour after the discovery of the fire in the hat store, all the buildingß above named were at its mercy. But the half hour had been well spent in the remo val of goods in the burning buildings, a large proportion of which was saved. Nothing was saved from the hat store, and John I. Barnes, Esq., lost all his extenstve library and accumulated papers except eight books, but with these exceptions, all involved in the disaster were fontunate in being able to save the most of their goods. The fire was not subdued until abont four o'clock. On main street it was stopped be fore it had been communicated to the store of Henry Walters, but not until Mr. Walters had removed a portion of his stock. On Franklin street it was checked by the brick front of David Creed's grocery store, the frame extension of which, however, it licked up, with some household furniture and a portion of Mr. Creed's goods. The buildings occupied by Frazer, Border. Turner, Mont gomery, Barnes, Lewis and Miss Parke were entirely consumed, and that occupied by Chandler and Williams was so badly burned that what is left of it will be torn down. THE LOSSES. Captain Thomas Gore owned all of the buildings destroyed except the one last na med. Ilia loss is not less than $9,000 upon which he had an insurance of $1,400. The other building wns owned by Miss Kitty Ham ilton and James Williams —loss $3,800 —ful- ly insured. Mr. Williams lost $250 in furni ture, on which he had no insurance. The Other losses are about as follows : C. T. Fra zer $2,500 —insured ; F. Border, SI,OO0 —no insurance ; George Turner, $3,200 —insured for $3,000; A. Montgomery, s4oo—insured ; J. F. Barnes, Esq., sl,ooo no insurance ; Isaac E. Chandler, from SSOO to S7O0 —in- sured : David Creed, sl,Boo—insured ; Hen ry Walters, goods damaged and lost, value not ascertained —insured ; John Benton, heavy glass front in the store room of A. J. McKinney, on the opposite side of Main street, broken by the heat, sll5 —no insu rance. The Lycoming Fire insurance Com pany loses more heavily by the fire than any other company. Its loss will be over $9,000. The other companies which suffer are the North American, Blair, York, Cumberland, Cambria and Merchants' Mutual of New Jer sey. The cause of the fire is a mystery, and we will indulge in no speculations concerning it.— Johnstown Tribune. "OUR YOUNG FOLES." —This lively young monthly is not only prosperous but improving.

Sister Collins, in early life, became a convert to the Christian faith and connected herself with tho M. E. Church in which she lived a worthy mem ber until tho Master called her from labor to re ward. For many months previous to hor death, the fatal effecLs of pulmonnry disease casta gloom over all her earthly joys and prospects. At times her sufferings became intense, yet she was able to say, with an air of Cbiistkn triumph, "Our light affliction, which is hot for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory." In the last hours of life, she repeatedly express ed an unwillingness to remain longer in the flesh; for the spirit was anxious to depart aud bo with Christ, and, "While faith, endued from Heaven with power, Sustained and cheered her languid breast," She shouted, Glory, Glory .'! until she fell asleep in Jesus. PASTOR. The Great Acclimating Tonic. Wherever Uostetter's Stomach Bitters, the cel ebrated American prevention of Climatic Disea ses, have been introduced into unhealthy regions, their effects in sustaining the health, vigor and animal spirits of those whose pursuits subjected them to extraordinary risks from exposure and privation, have been wonderful. In the Army the superiority of this article over every other invigorating and alterative medicine has become so manifest where used, that it is relied upon, ex clusively, as a protection against Billlous Fever, Fever and Ague, and Bowel- complaints of every kind. The soldiers say it is the only stimulent which produces and keeps up a healthy habit of body in unwholesome locations. For the unac climated pioneer and settler it is the most relia ble of all safeguards against sickness. Through out the United States it is considered the most healthful and agreeable of all tonics, and alto gether uneuualed as a remedy for Dyspepsia. The medicinal ingredients are all vegetable, and are held in solution by the most wholesome stimu lant known—the Essen ce of Rye. "Uostetter's Bitters" are manufactured at Pittsburgh, Penn sylvania, and no less than 50,000 dozen bottles are sold annually by druggists. Fab. 1:1 m. Scbcnck's Seaweed Tome. This medicine, invented by Dr. J. H. Scbenck of Philadelphia, is intended to dissolve the food and make it into chyme, the Erst process of diges tion. By cleansing the stomach with Schenck's Mandrake Pills, the Tonic soon restores tho appe tite, and food that could not be eaten beforo using it will be easily digested. Consumption cannot be cured by Schcnck's Pulmonic Syrup unless the stomach and liver is made healthy and the appetite restored, hence the Tonic and Pills are required in nearly every case of consumption. A half dozen bottles of the SEAWEED TONIC and three or.four boxe* of the MANDRAKE PILLS will cure any ordinary case of dyspepsia: Dr. Scbenck makes professional visits in New Yark, Boston, and at his principal office in Phila delphia every week. See daily papers of each place, or his pamphlet on consumption for his days for visitation. Please observe, when purchasing, that the two, likenesses of the Doctor, one when in the last stage of Consumption, and the other as he now is in perfect health, are on Government stamp.
