•I \e days have brought its more sunshine,
and clear bright days now cheer the farmer's
heart, aud fields of waving grain give prom
ise of an abundant harvest near at hand. The
season, however, is nearly two weeks later
than usual: strawberries, which we usually
have about the 10th, will not be ripe for at
least a week yet and other fruits and vegeta
bles show the same backwardness. Of roses,
the glory of June, the buds only show them
selves as yet.
A FEW days ago a kind hearted citizen of
the borough 'probably a member of the so
ciety tor the prevention of cruelty to dumb
animals ) apparently much concerned for the
f'cty cf the men engaged in stoning the gut
tors on Penn aud Bedford streets, sugges
ted to ns the propriety of just hinting to the
City lathers that, on warm days particularly,
it would be prudent to employ a few additional
bands to hold umbrellas over the workmen in
order to prevent daDger from sunstroke, which
is likely to be induced by the excessive in
dustry with which the work is prosecuted.
We hope no time will be lost, hut that meas
ures will at once be adopted for the preven
lion of tiny such dire calamity as sunstroke re

DARING BFRGLARIKS. —The hotel of Joseph
I Cessna, in Harrison township, was entered on
i the night of the 6th inst., by some person or
I persons unknown, and a sura of money, in
the neighborhood of S2OO, taken therefrom.
There were several persons stopping at the
house at the time, among them Mr. Simon
Carney, who had his pocket book containing
5135 or more taken from under his pillow.
All of the rest lost to a greater or less extent.
The till in the bar room was broken open and
the change, araonnting to some S2O, taken
out. After having completely ransacked
the house, the spring house was visited, and
a feast made on the pies, cakes, milk, Ac.
Several empty pocket books were found in the
spring house and a Confederate ten dollar
note and a penknife, taken from the pocket
of one of the parties in the house, were stuck
against the door, showing that the booty had
beeu overhauled here. No clue is had to the
perpetrators. From the fact that no one in
the honse was aroused during the time of the
robbery, it is supposed that chloroform was
administered to the sleepers.
—On the night of the -tth the store of W.
W. Lane}', in Cumberland Valley town
ship was broken open, and a considerable
quantity of goods carried off. As in the
above case, a feast was held in a spring
house near by, and such as could not be used
destroyed and no clue left as to who the rascals
were. Thieving seems tobe in the rage in the
country just now, and we would warn the peo
ple to keep a sharp eye on all strange charac
ters that may be found hanging around their
premises:
—On Saturday night the spring house ot
Mr. John Davidson was "gone through with"
to the amount of sundry articles in the shape
of pies, bread, butter, Ac. "Pies-air-things"
seem to be common property just now, and
we would advise folks to keep a lock on their
spring houses and cellars in consequence.
BEDFORD Cot NTT MEN ABROAD. —WE clip
from the Daily Journal of Commerce, Kan
sas City, Mo., the following:
"Improvement —.l Raj/ci Mill. — Messrs.
Householder A Schell, of Bedford county,
Pa., yesterday purchased forty acres of land
from Mrs. Constantia Gibson, for the pur
pose of erecting an extensive paper mill.
The land lies two miles from the Levee, aud
has a splendid spring ot water on it. These
gentlemen are from Pennsylvania, and are
men of ample means and superior business
qualifications. It is their intention to put up
a large establishment, and employ a great
number of operatives. They came here first.
Then went to Leavenworth, Bt. Joseph, Atch
ison, Omaha and Lawrence, to prospect, and
finally came back, and selected Kansas City
as the field for their operations. We con
gratulate the gentlemen on the sounduess of
their choice. Mr. Householder has been
State Senator for several years in Pennsylva
nia. and Mr. Schell is a brother of Schell,
lumber dealer in this city."
The friends of the gentlemen above u amed
will be pleased to learu that they are wide
awake in their western home. The company
consists of Hon. G. W. Householder, J. 11.
Schell, I). F. Beegle and Samuel D. Williams,
all wide awake energetic business men, whose
names are a sufficient guarantee that whatev
er jthey undertake will be prosecuted with
vigor, l'he paper business has been a most
profitable one for some years past, and we
have no doubt the gentlemen above named
will find their investment a paying one. For
high moral character, indomitable energy,
intelligence, and perseverence in whatever
they undertake we can commend them wher
ever they may turn up, confident that they
will always acquit themselves with credit.
For their success in their present enterprise
they have the best wishes of all who have had
the pleasure of their acquaintance in their old
homes.
MARTINSKCRG TEMPERANCE CONVENTION. —
"JOHANNAS" furnishes us with the following
account of the proceedings of the Quarterly
Convention of the Good Templars, held in
Martinsburg, Blair Coutity, on the 21st and
22d of May:
"The Convention met at 2 o'clock, r. >i..of
the 21st, aud was called to order by Bro. J.
W. Schwartz, W. C. T.
The following officers were then announced:
W. V. T.—Sister Mary E. Aschom. 183; W.
A. S. —Sister M. J. Kennedy. 133; W. T. —
S. McCartney. 20!); W. F. S. — Sister Carrie

gie Deal. 131: W. L. 11. S.—Sister Amanda
Davis, Johnstown.
The following preamble and resolutions
were offered by the Business Committee, ta
ken up severally, discussed and adopted :
WHEREAS, The Order of Good Templars is
organized for the special purpose of advan
cing the interests of Temperance in all legiti
mate ways, and the success of our cause re
quires the suppression of the liquor traffic by
legal enactments. Therefore , Be it.
Resolved, That we are contending with the
greatest evil that now exists in our country,
an evil that has for its support the long es
tablished customs of society, the selfishness
and cupidity of a large class of our citizens,
and the insatiable appetites of the unhappy
victims cf Intemperance.
Resolved, Thai we deem it of the utmost
importance that special efforts be made by
all our Lodges to bring the subject of Total
Abstinence to the attention of Sabbath School
Superintendents and Teachers, aud request
them to co- operate with U3 in securing the
pledges of the children under their charge to
a life of Total Abstinence.
Devolved, That as Good Templars and
worthy citizens, as well as members of the
several Lodges here represented, we pledge
ourselves to labor for the suppression of in
temperance, manfully, wisely, and energeti
cally, in any sphere in which God in His
providence may appoint us to work.
Resolved, That this Convention recommend
to all the Lodges in this District, total absti
nence from all medicine commonly called
"bitters," as the least hurtful, by chemical
analysis, contains nine per cent, of Alcohol.
Devolved, That as Good Templars we will
never cease our efforts to bring about such le
gislation as will sweep the monster iniquity
from our land.
Resolved, That PROHIBITION shall be the
motto of our banner.
The exercises of the evening were particu
larly interesting and entertaining. Bro. J.
H. Keatley, who was, by previous arrange
ment, the speaker for the evening, addressed
the large and attentive audience with credit
to himself aud great honor to the organiza
tion. The order should be proud of so able
i and so bold a defender of the noble cause,
j No better appreciation ol his worth-could be
given than a hearty support, from ali our
Lodges, of his ably conducted paper —the
Leader. The music by the Glee Club, led by
Bro. Schwartz, was the finest we have ever
listened to.
WEDNESDAY. —The following, from the
Business Committee, was adopted:
WHEREAS, It is a palpable, although a
painful truth, that professing Christians do
not give this subject the attention which, in
our opinioil, they should, and which is re-
quired of them, both in the Bible and the dis
cipline of the Churches, Therefore, Be it
Resolved, That re recommend to the sub
ordinate Lodges throughout the District, the
appointment of a committee of two Brothers
and three Sisters, whose duty it shall be to
call on members of churches, and earnestly
request them to become members of our be
loved order.
The afternoon was principady taken, up by
the reports from the various Lodges repre
sented. Hopewell Lodge was, by resolution,
declared the banner Lodge until superceded.
Johnstown, Cambria county, was fixed as
the next place of meeting—time, 2nd Tues
day in August, next
The following was then passed :
Resolved, That each Lodge be requested to
send a list of the names of delegates and visi
tors to the IV. S., of pe'-.iCouventiou, at least
two weeks before the time of meeting, and
that ail the delegates aud visitors take with
them regalia.
After the customary resolutions at the
breaking up of Conventions, the Convention
adjourned to meet at 7 o'clock, r. M.
EVENING SESSION. —The large audience was
very ably addressed by Rev. Moorchead of
Martinsburg. and Rev. Guiwn of Williams
burg.
Notwithstanding the weather was very un
pleasant, a goodly number of delegates were
present and we shall ever remember, with
pleasant thoughts, the kindness of the inhabi
tants of the goodly Borough and "ye Coriles"
in general.
CORRESPONDENCE.
HOPEWELL, BEDFORD Co., PA., )
June 3d, 1867. J
Messrs. Editors —lt affords me much pleas
ure to say to you in relation to your inquiry
in regard to the success of our experiment in
making coke metal at this place, that it has
been a perfect success, as far as demonstra
ting beyond the shadow of a doubt, that we
have all the requisite material herd for the
successful manufacturing of pig metal with
coke. The only difficulty we encountered
was the want of sufficient blast —as it takes
a much stronger blast to smelt iron with coke
than charcoal. It appears to have been a
mooted question up to this time as to whether
the coal in the Broad Top coal region would
make a coke suitable for the manufacture of
pig metal. But now, lam happy to say, all
doubts of that kind may be safely laid aside,
and the position assumed, that we have a
valley here, that in mineral wealth and natu
ral advantages for the manufacturing of iron,
is second to no other locality in our State,
a fact that the capitalists of this great manu
facturing State will not long remain ignorant
of. The great mistake that was made in the
early development of this region, was the fact
everything else but coal lands were lost sight
of, instead of the pioneers ot this valley
securing a proportionate amount of iron ore
lauds with their coal lands, which would have
rendered them independent, in the event of
a stagnation in the coal trade, Laving the
facilities at home for the consumption of their
raw*material, which would enable them to
ship the manufactured article to market and
still be able to realize a handsome profit. I
venture the prediction that within five years
you will be surprised at the progress that will
have been made iu this valley. All that, in
my opinion, appears to be necessary is the
capital and enterprise to convert this entire
valley into a busy scene of industry and pros
pcrity. Very truly yours,
JOHN F. LOWRY.

ties of Adams, Franklin, Fulton, Bedford.
Somerset, Terry. Cumberland and York.
I Gentlemen ■
I As I am about to prosecute the claims
for confiscation at the next session ot Con
gress, if I should be permitted to appear
there. I desire to ascertain certain facts.
| Will you aid me in procuring them in a small
i part ot our own state? Invite returns from
all the people in each township of the amount
of pfopcrty which the rebel raiders or the
armies of the so called "Confederate States"
j destroyed or appropriated to their own use
during their several incursions into Penn
! sylvania, and hand the same to the Assessors
j ol the different townships who are requested
| to return the aggregate for each township to
j the Chairmen of the respective parties of the
! different counties. May I here ask that the
various newpapers of the counties above
, j named, publish this notice for a few weeks in
i aid of the object specified as I intend to press
the payment of the damages doilc to loyal
i men, out of the confiscated property of the
' conquered belligerent. I desire eah arid
! every person who resided in the above named
| counties to make out a list of the amount ol
j all property of which he was despoiled by the
j rebel raiders or the rebel Government, and
; return the same to the assessors of his town
| ship. who. 1 hope will forward the same to
I to the Chairmen of the County Committees of
j each party, who 1 hope will take the trouble
jto aggregate the same and return it to me. I
desire a fair valuation to be placed on all the
: property, whether personal property ah
| stractcd, or real property destroyed, except
j Caledonia Iron works in the County of
j Franklin, which will not be appraised as no
| remuneration is claimed for it. This may
! seem to be asking our friends to take con
-1 siderable trouble, but as a small part ot the
| labor only falls to each person it will be found
j light. I hope it may finally prove profitable
j to the injured people.
Yours, THADDKUS STEVENS.
| P. S. Were it not presumptuous in me.
• I would invite all the loyal men of all the
j states who have been plundered by rebel
I raiders or confiscated by the Confederate
| States or either of them, to form associations
j and furnish statistics, such as are above so
j licited. Claims so imperatively just, muit
| be finally allowed and paid, but the funds to
pay the same will certainly be raised nowhere
j except out of the fines and confiscations of the
j richer and more atrocions malefactors.
| Feeble as my powers are, if I had five years
| more added to my life, I should not doubt but
j that this would become an accomplished fact,
j Such justice urged by a determined will,
i though feeble intellect, cannot tail.
If I should be denied that extension of
life, Providence will raise up to the work,
some younger and abler man to whom these
tacts would be of great assistance. I trust it
j will not be supposed that I have abandoned
the determination to procure small home
steads for the freedmcn, to be furnished by
i .he rebel masters whom they conquered at our
request. Homesteads earned by the late
j slaves and annexed to their master's es
j tates. Let them now be severed by partition.

Fever and .Ague Evt.nguished,

j you. The rcspcnsibUity for your suffering rests
upon yourselves. Just as surely as you shake to

CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTERS will ex
tinguish Ihe disease under which you labor. Had
you taken this genial tonic as a preventive, you
would have no need of it as a cure, for it renders
the system impervious to all miasmatic fevers.
But since you neglected tho precaution, rid your
selves without delay of the complaint by resort
ing to the only rcliahle remedy. Break the chills
with HOSTETTER'S BITTERS, and they will
return no more. This is the experience of thou
sands. and it will be yours. Quinine is a slow
means of relief; it is nauseous to the last degree:
it is more dangerous than the malady itself; in
many ca?>.? it utterly fails, flow different is the
effect of the Bitters. Tbeir curative action is
rapid: they are agreeable to the palate; they are
not only entirely harmless, but tend inevitably to
strengthen the constitution and prolong life: they
net . -r hac< jailed, and it is confidently assumed
that I bey nerer can fail in any case of Fever and
Ague, however inveterate in its character. To be

Consumption Cnrable by Dr. Schenck'w
Medicines.
To cure consumption, the system must bo 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 medicine? will be tigested prop
erly, and good healthy blood made: thns build
ing up the constitution. Sebenek'? Mandrake
Bill's cleanse the stomach of all billions or mucous
accumulations: and by using the Sea Weed Tonic
iu connection, the appetite is restored.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is nutritious a? well
a* medicine!, 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 patients will take these medicines ac
cording to directions, Consumption very froqucot
ly 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 arc necessary. The
stomach must be kept healthy, and an appetite
created to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to act on the
expiratory organs properly ami 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 as possible, eat all the

thing the appetite craves: but be particular and
