If you wish to keep your town from thriving, turn a cold shoulder to every young mechanic or beginner in business —kill him off if. you can. Look up to every new comer with a scowl and discourage all yon can; if that won't do decry his work and go abroad for wares of his kind rather than give him your money, j Last but not least refuse to patronize the vil lage paper. "Then go to seed." There is no more effectual way to retard the growth of a town than this. NORMAL SCHOOL.— This institution will soon close its most prosperous session it has had for years.

PmsTtuxusi Goixo TO VIRGINIA. —The Hagerstown Mail, of this week, says: For several days past there have been a great many arrivals in Hagerstown, of Dauphin, Lancaster and York county farmers, on their way up the Valley of Virginia, in search of farms. They are all of that substantial, in dustrious and intelligent- class of agricultur ists who have made the eastern part of Penn sylvania a garden spot. Many of them are accompanied by their wives, whose judgment in the selection of a farm they very justly place a high estimate upon. The great pro portion arrived in the cars of the Cumberland Valley railroad, but on last Friday a large wagon, expressly gotten up for the occasion, and drawn by six splendid gray horses, passed through town with about a score of purcha sers and their wives aboard. Virginia will be benefited by the introduction of this popu lation. SAI.K OF PROPERTY. —George Blymyer A Son have sold out their large hardware store to Mr. T. M.

Any person acquainted with the tacts in the case will confer a great favor upou his widow and orphans by communicating them to the editors of the INQUIRER. tf. INJURED. —An aged gentleman, residing with and a relative, we believe, of Dr. Geo. Anderson, was thrown from a wagon in the vicinity of "The Arandale," on Monday and pretty badly injured. His face was badly cut, but as tar as we can learn, nothing serious is apprehended. THE BEDFORD LTCEUM. —The punctual at tendance of all the members of the Lyceum, together with those who desire its success, is requested on Saturday Evening at §4 o'clock, at the Court House. Let all come. For the hujuirer Autumn. There came the autumn, all in yellow clad, As though he joyed in his plenteous store, Laden with fruits that made him laugh, full glad. That be had banished hunger.— Spencer's Fairy Queen. Yes. Autumn is here: bright laughing, gor geous sky appanelled autumn. Here in his pride and glory. Here with his frosty morn ing and sun shiny days. Here with his fruit ful orchards, richly colored forests. Here to be welcomed by young and old. A sound breaks upon the car. It is the noise of children. Wild with excitement they roam the woods in search of nuts. The farmer is storing away bis golden apples and the vint uer gathering the fruit of the vine. Here the piece of the one is expressed for a grateful beverage, there the colored liquid, the life of the other flows into the vat. Boon it will And a place in the dark cellar. It may yet strengthen the weak or perhaps be served on the sacramental board at some future day. Yes, Autumn "is here, and what a feast the eye enjoys ! How richly the forest is clothed! How delicate the coloring of its robe! How pleasing the variety which appears! There is beauty, beauty all around. But while this season brings so much to please, it also suggests sober thoughts. The beauty nature wears is fading beauty. Soon the leaves shall fall and the chill winds whistle through the naked branches. The season suggests thoughts of the change that awaits us, awaits us all, and may not be far off. It speaks solemnly of the time when beauty shall fade from the cheet, when light shall vanish from the eye, when strength shall fail the active limb and we lie down in the dust. When the spring time comes again the for est will be clothed afresh and the birds sing as sweetly as ever. To which shall we awake from the sleep of the grave? And how shall we appear on the resurrection morn? Shall it be in "clean robes, white robes, washed in the blood of the Lamb ?"' 'When I gaze on the valleys of death. On life and its varieties, which all are so brief; "And think that poor mortals but vapors ot breath, An falling to moulder like antumn's blight Leaf. On faith's burnished mirror, reflected afar, I see a new life—God giveth the soul: And as death drawetb near, so brighten the star. Becometh that leads to this life's precious goal," H. J. Meicutio said ofbis wound, *' It teas not as deep as a treU, or as i ride As a gate, but it wouid do." PLANTATION BITTERS will not raise the dead But they cure the sick, exalt the depressed, And render life a thing to be enjoyed. We believe there are millions of living wit nesses to this fact. Dyspepsia is a horrid disease, bat Plantation Bitters will cure it. It is a most invigorating tonij, for weakness and mental despondency. Those who are "out of sorts" should try Plantation Bitters. The Truth about Dyspepsia. Whoever says that dyspepsia is incurable, tells a—that is to say, makes an egregious mistake. More than ten thousand aggravated cases have been cured by HOSTRTTKR'S STOMACH BIT TEKS, while the number that have been prevent ed from coming to a head, by the same means, is incalculable. In this season of the year, when the appetite is sometimes too vigorous for the comfort and safety of the stomach, indigestion is most prevalent and most distressing. Is the appe tite to be balked to accommodate the digestive or gans ? Not so: for then the frame would lack its due proportion of nutriment. The thing to be done is to STRI-RUTHEX THE STOMACH, tone the liver, and put the bowels in perfect order. Noth ing will do this so effectually, so rapidly, so qui etly, so pleasantly, as HOSTETTEK'S BIT TER'S. This potent preparation trims and bal ances tbe system, and clothes it as it were, with defensive armor. Chronic dyspepsia, liver com plaint, and fever and ague are never known to at tack those who are wise enough to invoke the aid oftbis great preventive. oct-t Dr Schenck'* Pulmonic Syrup. Ttis great medicine cured by Dr. J. H. Schenck the proprietor, of Pulmonary Consumption, when speedy death appeared to be inevitable, liis phy sicians prononnced bis case incurable, when be commenced tbe use of this simple but powerful remedy. His health was restored in a very short time, and no retnrn of tbe disease has been appre hended, for all the symptoms quickly disappear ed and bis present weight is more than two hun dred pounds. Since his recovery he has devoted his attention exclusively to the cure of Consumption, end the diseases which are usually complicated with it, and the cures effected by his medicines have been very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr. Schenck makes professional visits to several of the larger cities weekly, where be has large concourse of pa tients, and it is truly astonishing to see poor con sumptives that have to be lifted out of their car riages, and in a few months healthy, robust per sons. Dr. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are generally all re. quired in curing Consumption. Full directions accompany each, so that any one can take them 'without seeing Dr. Schenck, but when it is conve nient it is best to see him, Re gives advice free, but for a thorough examination with bis Respir ometer his fee is three dollars. Sold byjall Druggists and Dealers' price $1.50 per bottle, or $7.50 the half dozen.

DIED IN MF.UORIAM. —On Wednesday, Oct. 16, 1867, in the town of Bedford, at the residence of her son, Isaac Mcngel, Mrs. ELIZABETH MENGEL was translated by sndden death from the trials and j conflicts of earth to her happy and peaceful home in heaven. The cause of her death was a sudden visitation of apoplexy, enjoying good health nntil within two hours of her death. She was a con sistent and much beloved member of theEv. Luth. church, into which she was baptized in infancy. At an early age she confirmed those vows in York, Pa., and united with the church under the pastoral earc of Ker. 3. G. Schtnucker, Sen., D. D. She was sixty-seven years, ten months and ten days of age. Her religious experience was ofthe ripest and deepest kind. Her jidrlity and humility were well marked. Her greatest joys were to read her Bible, and faithfully attend upon the ordinances of God's house, to refresh and invigorate her christian character and graces. To the day of her death she was faithful to her master and religious duties. She leaves many mourning friends and acquaintances. " None knew her, but to love ber, None named her, but to praise " We sorrow for her departure : but our consola tion is that our loss is her inexpressible gain. PASTOR. A NOTHER VETO ON HIGH PRICES.
