A LARGE STEAM TANNERY. —Certain par ties from Huntingdon county have purchased a site for a large Steam Tannery at the Foot of Dry Ridge, on the line of the projected railroad, which they intend to erect during the coming season. This position has been se lected with consummate judgment; there is certainly no better site in the county. / l/ SHAD ON THEIR WAY UP.— Thomas Mullinix? of Suake Spring township, caught a shad at Hartley's Spring Run, about six miles below Bedford, ou Wednesday of last week. — This is the first shad that has been caught in the Raystown Branch of the Juniata since the completing of the canal. So much for the bill passed last winter to remove the ob structions in the Susquehanna and its tributa ries. An enterprising citizen has lately erected a very fine building in this place, which has attracted crowds of citizens to in gpect and feast their eyes upon the novelty. It is so long since the people of Bedford have had the pleasure of seeing a building erected, that it has been suggested, if the enterprising gentleman above alluded to were to charge a small fee a head for the permission to gratify the desire of the public to see and inspect, that the fund which would thus accumulate, would fully pay all the expenses incurred in the erection and construction of his edifice. A MISTAKE. —Michael Naugle, Esq., re quests us to say that he did not write, as ma ny supposed, nor had he hand in getting up the "Take Notice," calling for the "organi zation" of a "new party," at his house, pub lished in our last week's issue. On the con trary, he asserts and confidently assures us, that he has never even suggested the remo test sympathy for such a movement, and that his name was used in eounootLoi r l "' by some unscrupulous persons with au appa rent intention to injure him politically. We are compelled to say this much in vindication of a much injured man. BEDFORD COUNTY INDEBTEDNESS TO THE STATE CLEARED UP. —The readers of the IN QUIRER will remember that we, during the late canvass, exhibited to them the indebtedness of Bedford county to the State which was then some $16,742. Since then the Commis sioners have labored assiduously to pay up this deficiency. A few days ago their Attor ney, E. F. Kerr, Esq., handed us the follow ing statement from the office of the State Treasurer, which we publish with pleasure : Bedford county in account with the Cone monioealth of Pennsylvania. Tax on Real and Personal Estate. DR. To amount of said tax as fixed by the board of Revenue Commis sioners tor the year 1866 $3177 34 Deduct 5 per cent, for Col lection $l6B 86 Deduct Treas.

To cancel this formidable debt the Commissioners have been compelled to borow several thousand and to secure the passage of an act relieving the county from the penalty of five per cent, imposed by the Legislature to impel prompt payments. The Commissioners, or their subordinates, confidently assert that the county is not in debted above five thousand dollars, and that > they will be able to pay the last dollar of in- j debtedness by Court week. The Commissioners deserve great credit for I their prompt efforts to relieve the county of ' a debt, that was growing very rapidly and dis tressed our tax-payers, who can rest assured : they will have no State-tax to pay for the year 1867. We claim a little credit ourselves i for having aroused the people to the impor- I ance of making their representatives rid them f of the incubus which was hanging over them. | I. O. OF O. F. —The Independent Order of Odd Fellows, throughout the United States t and the Canadas, intend observing Friday the 26th of this month, (it being the forty-eighth r anniversary ol the establishment of the order in America) as a day of Thanksgiving for reasons set forth in the proclamation of its chief national officer, which we here publish : V I'ROC'LAM ATION APPOINTING A DAY OF THANKS GIVING. J W HEUEAS, the It. \V. Grand Lodge of the 1 uited States, of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, at its late September Session, 186G, in grateful 'recognition of the unerring hand of God in rescuing the genius of Odd Fellowship from the ruin which desolated so many of the benevolent and charitable insti tutions of our common Country, as the indis pensable effects of civil war, —and of the un mistakable prosperity which has crowned its labors during the year which has just passed,' did, by unanimous vote, direct the M. W. j Grand Sire to issue his Proclamation ap . pointing a Day of Thanksgiving for these and countless other blessings vouchsafed to our beloved order : Now, Therefore, I, James I'. Sanders, M. W. Grand Sire, do hereby fraternally direct that the twenty-sixth day of April, 1867, be observed by the Members of our Order throughout the general jurisdiction, as a day of Thanksgiving and Prayer, and that they do assemble on said day in such manner aud form of organization, with their families, as the I appropriate authorities in their respective s State jurisdictions may prescribe, to render I thanks to the ever-living God, for his mani i fest favor and protection to that Institution which we so much love and cherish, and es pecially for the preservation of its unbroken unity, through trials and perils of unparallel ed severity.

The public are cordially invited to attend.-3t SAI.K OF A WIFE. —We complain of the Mormons for their plurality of wives, and of the Indians for their readiness to dispose of their wives at any time for a consideration, but we believe that Fulton county can beat both in disposing of a wife and children by regular article of agreement and bill of sale. Mr. Paul M. Dishong, of the classical town ship of Belfast, in Fulton county, and his lovely Mary Ann, certainly a fruitful and for aught we can see a faithful wife, mutually agreed that the said lovely Mary Anil should be sold to Mr. James Wilson, "which is the churn pedler," for the sum of seventeen dol lars in cash or approved country produce, and the churn pedlar and his newly purchased wife were to go away on or before the Ist of April last, and "to get away the best way they can," and said pedlar is further empowered to wal lop the children and exercise generally the rights and prerogatives of the first husband. We give herewith the article of agreement made and solemnly executed between the parties, and assure our readers that it is a true copy of the original document, made in good faith, and we presume carried out by the parties. Here it is : BELFAST TOWNSHIP, Feb. 14th, A. D., 1567 Artickle of agreement made and fully agreead upon this year and date above writ ten. between Paul M. Dighonar A- Wife and r olV)00 w itar/vi. tho conditions ol tllis agree ment are such : Paul M. Dishong doth agree to bind and obligate himself that he Will Not disturb his Wife, Nor Wilson (the churn ped ler) and is Willing that Mary An Dishong, his Wife, and children, go with James Wilson ; and Paul W. Dishong is willing to give her what Property she claims in the house, and also agree for them to get away on or before the first day of April. 1867, and also to get away the best way they can. Paul M. Dish ong is to have his oldest Daughter in the spring of 1866, when calling for her, Mary Catherine, and his wife Doeth agree to let him have her, & the afore said Wilson, is not to go so far away but what Paul M. Dishong can cum and see them, and Will Be treated with respect. Paul M. Dishong is to have seventeen dollars in money for a fore said Wife an Children, or the amount of a bill of accounts, or to have the Cow , and also to have his Bed, & Plate, & Bucket, it Lamp. And if the afore said Wilson Can manage the Children without abusing them, he has Privi lige to come and get them at any time aud is welcome to all of them. Paul M. Dishong doth agree that Mary Ann, his Wife, can sell the Cow to Enny one she pleases, only not to make sale to Enny of the Ilesses, in Presence of William Forhner. PAUI. M.

Aprill2:4t JOHN H. SHAFER. | f Consumption Curable by Dr. Schenck's i Medicines. , To cure consumption, the system must be pre , pared so that the lungs will heal. To accomplish . this, the stomach and liver must first be cleansed . and an appetite created for good wholesome food, which by these medicines will be cigested prop erty, and good healthy blood made; thus build ing up the constitution. Schenck's Mandrake Bill's cleanse the stomach of all billious or mucous accumulations; and by using the Sea Weed Tonic ' in connection, the appetite is restored. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is nutritious as well \ as medicinal, and by using the three remedies all impurities are expelled from the system, and good wholesome blood made, whieh will repel all dis ease. If patients will take these medicines ac cording to directions, Consumption very frequent ly in its last stage yields readily to theii action Take the pills frequently, to cleanse the liver and stomach. It does not follow that because the bowels are not costive they are not required, for s ometimes in dianhu-a they are necessary. The stomach must be kept healthy, and an appetite created to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to act on the respiratory organs properly and allay any irrita tion. Then all that is required to perform a per manent cure is, to prevent taking cold. Exercise about the rooms as mueh as possible, cat all the richest food—fat meat, game, and, in fact, any thing the appetite craves: but be particular and masticate well. Nov. 9, 2nd w. e&. mo. 1 yr. Strength for the Exhausted. Thousands die, as it were, inch by inch, ol bodi ly weakness: for debility will kill as certainly, though not so quickly, as a raging fever. Is it asked how the weak shall be made strong; the ■debilitated sustained and restored: the exhausted refilled with vital energy? We aver that of all invigorating preparations given by science to man, " from the institution of the art of healing to the present hour, not one has wrought such wonders in the way of restoration as HOSTETTER'S CEL EBRATED STOMACH BITTERS. This is in deed the tonic of tonics. As a revitalizing, strength-supporting, life prolonging agent, the like of it is not to be fouud in the catalogue of medicines. Among the various articles used to • arouse the dormant powers of nature, it stands ' alone—the great awakener of the paralyzed phys ique. It not only awakens the physical powers from a state of collapse and inanition, but it im parts permanent vigor to the muscular and ner vous systems—reinforcing, as it were, both the stronghold and the outworks of vitality. The aged, the deerepid, the nervous, the broken down of both sexes, are recommended to try it. They will assuredly find it a present help in time of trouble. April 1:1 m.

VIRGIL PORTER, (LATE OF NEW YORK CITY,) DEIVTIST, Would respectfully inform his numerous friends and the public generally, that he has located per manently in BLOODY RUN, where he may be found at all times prepared to insert from one tooth to a full set of his BEAUTIFUL ARTIFI CIAL TEETH on new and improved atmospher ic principles. The TRIUMPH OR MECHANICAL I)E A - TISTRY RVRRER for the basis of artificial teeth. This discovery which has met with such uni versal approval throughout this and other coun tries, has seemingly placed ARTIFICIAL TEETH at the disposal of all who require them. DR. PORTER is now inserting the most BE A U TIFUL and D CRADLE at prices ranging from Ten to Eighteen Dollars per set. Temporary sets inserted if desired. All operation warranted. ®@* Teetli extracted without pain by the use of NITROUS ON IDE or LAUGHING GAS. This is no humbug, but a positive fact. Has administered fresh every day. As the Gas ad ministered by Dr. Porter is prepared in accord ance with the ptirilying method of Dr. Strong, of New Haven, Ct., and Prof. Silimnn (late Professor of Chemistry in Yale College) he has no hisita tion in asserting that it is attended with no dan ger whatever. Persons desiring the services of a Dentist would promote their own interest by call ing upon Dr. Porter, as he is determined to spare no°effort to please the most fastidious. Dr. Por ter's mode of operating will at all times be of the mildest character, avoiding the infliction of the slightest unnecessary pain, and carefully adapted to the age, constitution, health and nervous con dition of the patient. Special attention is invited to Dr. Porter's scientific method of preserving decayed and ach ing teeth. Teeth blackened and diseased, cleans ed to appear beautiful and white. 11.
