ftjT~ We have received a letter from a friend
in the Miami valley, ohio, who stale, that
the grain crop has not looked as welt at this
-eason of the year as it does now for ten years.
The grain in this county could not be better

provement of your yard or garden. There is
a sovereign remedy, though very unpleasant—
shoot them—it has the desired effect.
|fgg"*The Hollidaysburg Whig scolds a mor
tal column over the loss of about fifty dollars,
or less, of advertising. A little advertising
must be a wonderful thing in that "neck o
woods." We have any amount of advertis
ing such as lottery schemes, patent medicines,
pills, Ac, on hand and for which we have no
use that we will dispose of cheap for cash.
Shall we send vou a few, friend Brotherline?
CHIB'.'H ENTERPRISE. —On last Tuesday
McKendre M. E. Church, Bloody Run
charge, was taken down preparatory to the
erection of a new edifice. This was among
the oldest church buildings in this part
of the state and possessed, of course, none of
the improvements of recent origin. Its
demolition, and the rebuilding of a neat brick
church is a credit to the Methodists of Brush
Creek Valley.
St'NDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION. —The Sunday
School Convention of the Juniata District,
East Baltimore Conference, M E. Church,
will be held in Bloody Run, to commence 1
o'clock P. M. May 2th. The Delegates to
the Convention are the ministers of-the Dis
trict. thirty three in number, afid two laymen
for each Sunday School. The annu.a! sermon
will be preached by Rev. J. S. McMurry, at
Tl P. M. of the first day.
Gooti TEMPLARS. —The following officers
were installed on Monday evening the 6th
inst. . to serve forthe ensuing term, for Bedford
bodge. No. 113, I. O. ofG. T. of Pennsylva
nia: W. C. T., J. Reed Yeager; W. V. T.,
Mrs. Annie D Shuck: W. S., W. T. Dough

row were elected representatives to the Grand
Lodge, which holds its Annual Session in
Allegheny city on the Pith day of June next.
The I.odgu is in a most flourishing conditiou
and rapidly increasing in numbers. On
Monday night last there were sixteen propo
sitions. three of whom are clergymen, consist
ing of our most substantial citizens. Lodge*
are rapidly being established throughout the
county until we hope the day is not far dis
tant when every towuship in the country will
have one.
XEU NITIM THE NEWS BOY, or Street Life
\ in Morton, is the title of t. book written by
Rev. Henry Morgan, which is Milling very
rapidly, most of the first edition being nold
wholly in Boston, and within a few days of
its publication. It reveals much of the life of
the "dangerous classes," as they are termed
in England, or the poor and vicious, as they
are generally spoken of in this country, Mr.
Morgan is at the head of the mission enter
prise established in Franklin Building, near
Dover Street, and has devoted himself to the
work of reclaiming and benefiting the lower
classes of our population with great earnest
ness and much practical wisdom, and. there is
reason to believe, is accomplishing great good.
This book of his is deeply interesting, as it
presents in vivid colors the daily life of the
juvenile outcasts of the city, and their meutal
and moral characteristics, as well as the cau
se" which lead them into vice and crime. It
is a book that all may read with profit, and
especially tho3e who take an interest in re-,
formatory movements.
Agents wishing to secure good territory
should vpply at once to Rev. Henry Morgan
9 Groton street Boston, Mass.
THE congregation of the Evangelical Luth
eran church, of this place, was pleasantly
surprised a few Sabbath mornings ago to find
upon their pulpit a very elegant cushion, the
gift of thei Episcopal congregation. The
cushion is one of the most elegant we hare
ever - seen, being of purple silk-velvet,
trimmed with gold cord and fringe. At the
time of the organisation of the Episcopal
Congregation they had tto place of worship,
and were tendered the use of the Lutheran
Church, where they worshipped statedly for
several months until they were provided with
their present place of worship. It was in
acknowledgement of the courtesy thus ex
tended to them. that this token of their ap
preciation of the act was ( prepared and pre
sented. It always gives Ms pleasure to record
such evidences of reciprocal good feeling be
tween the various Christian denominations,
as they are the outward demonstrations of
that charity and benevolence, which should
always exist between them. May the kindly
spirit evinced in these friendly acts long con
tinue to exist between the churches of this
community.
PITTSBURGH AXD CONXELLSVILLE RAILROAD
CASE. —This case was set for trial in the Cir
cuit Court of the United States on Monday
last, but by some means the Pennsylvania-
Railroad Company have succeeded in having
it continued until the December term. The
court once refused on application to this effect
but upon a new application granted it. We
had hoped, says the Cumberland Civilian,
that this matter would be finally decided at
this term of the court, but we are doomed to
disappointment. We must now look to the
Supreme Court of the State of Pennsylvania,
at present in session at Harrisburg. The case
of the people of Baltimore city and the State
of Maryland against the people of Pennsylva
nia—that is the Pittsburgh and Connellsville
vs. the Pennsylvania Railroad —will come be
fore the court on Tuesday next, the 14th inst.
If decided in favor of the Pittsburgh and Con
nellsville Road, the decision is final; ifagainst
the Pittsburgh and Connellsville Road, an ap
peal may be taken. Inasmuch as the courts
of Pennsylvania have already three times
given decisions favorably to this road, we
may reasonably anticipate another of like
character, and thus have our interests in this
very important wort secured.
STREET IMPROVEMENTS. —The Tow I Coun
cil has zone to work in earnest and is doing
what should have been done twenty years ago.
They deserve all praise for their inflexible
determination to make property holders im
prove their side walks. In this connection
we would ask whether there is any thing to.be
done for Juliana Street? It is high time it
was. macadamized and the gutters opened.
In Winter and Spring it is covered with six,
eight or ten inches of mud and in the Summer
and Fall with the same depth of dust. All
the travel to the Springs passes over this
Street and it is no more than proper, in jus
tice to the visitors as well as to the persons
owning property on it, that it should be put
in as good a condition as Pitt Street. It is
hoped that the Council will not long neglect
! this important Street and have it improved
before Spring Season commences.
New LODGE OF ODD FF.LI.OWS. —On Mon
day evening last, D. D. O. Master, Hickok,
assisted by several Past Grands of Bedford
Lodge, No. 202, organized a Lodge at Bloody
Run this, county, called Bloody Run Lodge,
No. FIFLO. The new Lodge started under unu
suallv favorable circumstances, and bids fair
to be very prosperous and useful.
The officers installed for the present term
are Samuel Jaffa, N. G.. William Masters, \ .
G., J. C. Hawmaii, Secretary,|H. M. Gibson,
A. Secretary and A. S. Ritchey, Treasurer.

RESCLT OF PRIMARY Ei.KCTtos.—Tbe Re
publican Primary Election on last Saturday,
resulted lis follows: For Legislature—Col.
John Wt-ller, County Treasurer—Capt-
Adam Grim. For Commissioner—Peter
Auman. For Couuty Auditor—Philip F.
Cupp. For Poor House Director—Tobias
Meyers — Somerset Democrat.
THE BASE BALI, KVISAKCB. —The season
for this game has again opened, and we may
expect the usual complaints from persons
who have young men and boys in their em
ploy. Amusement and exercise should be
encouraged, but when base ball playing
is "run in the ground," as was the esse al
most everywhere last year, it be.-omes a
nuisance.— Huntingdon Globe.
IMPORTANT TO HCCSCSTERS. —Among the
bills passed by the Legislature, and approved
by the Governor, is one repealing the first
section of the act relative to huckstering in
Bedford, Cumberland, Fulton, Franklin and
York Counties, as discriminates against non
residents of those counties, and compelling
the Treasurers to refund to non-residents, who
have paid liceuses imposed by this act, the
excess so paid over and above the licenses
imposed on residents.— Mercer sbwrg Jour
nal.
AT the early hour we are compelled to go
to press, the returns of the Primary election
are not alt received. Col. Weller is of
course re-nomiuated for the Legislature—
Capt. Grim for Treasurer, Peter Auman for
Commissioner, Tobias Meyers for the Direc
tor of the Poor, and Philip F. Cupp. are all
unquestionably nominated, by decisive majori
ties. We will publish the returns iu full next
week.— Somerset Whig.
PASS HIM ROCKD. —A follow by the name
of Wm. H. Florence, agent for tho sale of a
patent churn, is traveling the country, coming
the confidence game over printers. He got
bills printed at this office, and suddenly
"skipped out" without paying for them. We
warn our brethern of the press to be on their
guard for the aforesaid Mr. Florence, and re
quest that they republish this notice in order
that the craft may not be imposed on by him
or any other scoundrel yrho may try a similar
dodge.— Gieensburg Argus.
BE PREPARED FOR THE CHOLERA. —Now that
the cholera season is approaching, the citi
zens of all tha towns in the country should
thoroughly cleanse all alleys, Ac., near their
residences, and burn and burrv all rubbish.
It is expected that the cholera will prevail
extensively this summer, and the Surgeon
General of the United States army has or
dered preparations to be made for it at all the
military posts in the country. With proper
care the people outside of the large cities and
town 3 will have little to fear from it. Filth,
however, will breed pestilence anywhere, and
it is best to prevent its ravages by proper
sanitary precautions.
RERIGXED. — Our jovial friend Mr. John C.
Carroll, who, for two years past has been em
ployed in responsible positions on the Broad
Top Railroad, and latterly as Conductor, has
resigned, and. we understand, has been em
ployed as brakesman. on anassenger train on
the Pennsylvania Central. We regret to part
with John, but we hope that his most sanguine
expectations in the way of success will be
more than realized, as he is in every way dc-
serving. We expect to hear from him often,
which announcement will please many read
ers who admire his literary productions.
Mr. John Rahm has been appointed Con
ductor in lieu of Mr. Carroll. — Huntingdon
Globe.
RECORDING OF SOLDIERS' DISCHARGES. —
The last Legislature passed a law requiring
the Recorders of the several counties to place
on record the discbarges of soldiers, so that
in case of their being lost or distroyed, the
proofs will still remain on the county records
It is as follows:
SECTION' 1. Be it enacted fir.. That tl
Recorders of Deeds in the sev, i., co.iui •* i

and required to record all final discharges of
commissioned and non-commissioned officers
and privates, upon application being made to
them by the holders of the same, and that tho
recording of the same shall not be subject to
tbe payment of the State tax.
THE Bedford Inquirer of last week asks .
"Did not Mr. Scull favor the repeal of the
Connellsville charter, and uid not he. with
several hnndred influential citizens of Somer
set county, sign a petition for its repeal at the
time our Senator, Mr. Householder, voted for
Mr. Scull did not favor the repeal of the
Connellsville charter, nor did he sigr. a peti
tion asking for it. On the contrary, be
signed a petition against its repeal, and the
first knowledge he had of a petition being
forwarded from this county favoring it, he
derived from the above article. — Somerset
Whig.
THE BIRDS.- —Boys of all sizes and ages
may not remember that there is a statute
prohibiting the killing of insectivorous birds.
The tribe of insectivorous birds embraces
robins,'wrens, blackbirds, wood-peckers, wag
tails, ebipping-birds, yellow-birds, cat-birds,
swallows, martins, sparrows, and almost every
kind, save the hawk, owl, eagle, and so-forth.
Don't kill the birds, boys. You should treat
them so kindly that they will nest in the trees
in your yards, and pick tip the crumbs at the
kitchen door.

THE Johnefotrn Tribune says that a most
fiendish attempt was made to throw the Phila
delphia Express from the track, on Thursday
evening last, a short distance east of the
passenger station at that place. A piece of
iron bar was placed in the frog at the switch,
and was secured in its place by ballast collect
ed from the road. In crossing the switch a
severe jar was given to the tram, which, how
ever. was not thrown from the track. On
stopping and going back with lights, the ob
structions were discovered.
; JOHX PAI.MER, District Attorney of Bedford
county, is charged by the Bedford Inquirer
with having collected several thousand dol
lars of back pay, bounty and pensions for dif
ferent persons, among them a number of
| poor widows, and then left for parts un
known. John is a pure Democrat—as pure
as Meyers of the Bedford Gazette , and of
I course he could not help cheating when he

IMIKPEKDBKT ORDER OF GOOI, TEMPI-SRS.

for the past twelve year* iu progress has
been steadily onward, until now ft has 0..... j
Lodges in all the States of tie Union bat
five, and a'so is all the Eriish Provinces,
with upwards of one members, all
pledged to total abstinence aid prohibition.
As an instance of the growth of the Order,
we may mention that in IW3 there were less
than thirty Lodges iuPennsyl-ania, now there
are three hundred, and thjre are but six
counties at present in our Stfte without any
Lodges, and to these the Grind Lodge lec
turorg have been directed to o and organize
Lodges, so that the annual session of the
Grsnd Lodge, which is to be held in Alleghe
ny City, commencing Jin* 13th. the Grand
Lodge officers may be able to report the Order
established iu every court y. Rapid as has
been the increase of the order in Pennsyl
vania, it has been equally'successful in other
States from Maine to California. The next
session of the Grand Lodg> will call together
not less than five hundred delegates from the
various Lodges of the Stae. Every Subor
dinate Lodge is entitled tosend one represen
tative, ana every trudge Utfdng erne bundled
members on the 30th of April two, and one for
each additional fifty members. The coming
Grand Lodge session, owing to the great in
crease of the Order duringthe past year, will
be one of great important".

Jay 6, IMI. /
Dr. Hostettkr—Sir : I have long delayed
writing to you my sincere th.nks for the good you ■
hare done my daughter. I ean truly lay that
nothing but the kind hand of Providence and
your Bitters have saved her l-om en early grave.
For three years I have been doctoring her with
syrups and all kinds of bitter* that have been
recomended to rue for her, houides having two
first rate physicians, but ail swtned to do her no
good, while I was searching he almanacs and al'
the newspapers that I could jet hold of, in hopes
of finding something that eould suit her case.
Accidentally there catnr jart of a newspaper
around some goods that I hmght at the Spa. In
looking over it I saw at a gance that your fit
ters was just what she need*!, I sent the next
day to Ballston Spa and got* bottle ef your Bit
ters. She commenced taking them, and such a
change in one week with her appetite and the
distress that vietuals occasimed, and that bant
ing in the Stomach, I never saw in my life, as
there was in her. She has taken three bottles and
is now able to work all the time. I think there
is a little derangement of the Livsr. Please send
me three bottles more, which I think will cure her
-entirely. We and others thought she had a dis
ease of the heart, but that besting and fluttering
that would almost stop bcr from breathing at
times, is all gone.

May 10. Mrs. Ama.vda MThersos.
Consumption Curable by Dr. Schenck'*
Medicine*.
To cure consumption, the system must be pre
fiaaad *• the lUMge WDI Aw bawrt.■a.yllwk.
this, the stomach and liver most firat be cleansed
and ;vn appetite created for good wholesome food,
which by there medicines will be t igested prop
erly, and good healthy blood made: thus build
ing up the constitution. Schenck's Mandrake
Bill's cleanse the etomarh of all billion? or mucous
accumulations: and by using the Boa Weed Tonic
in connection, the appetite is restored.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is nutritious as well
a? medicinal, and by using the three remedies all
impurities are expelled from the system, and good
wholesome blood made, which will repel all dis
ease. If patient? will take these medicines ac
cording to direction?, Consumption very frequent
]y in its last stage yields readily to their action
Take the pills frequently, to cleanse the liver and
stomach. It does not follow that because the
bowels arc not costive they are not required, for
sometimes in diarrho*a they are necessary. The
stomach must be kept healthy, and an appetite
created to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to act on the
espiratory 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 much a- possible, eat all the
richest food—fat meat, gaiur. and, in fact, any
thing the appetite craves: but be particular and
masticate well.
