Dear*—Not the streets, but the church pews in or town. We have lately heard j complaints from various persons, that they get their "Sunday clothes" badly dusted when they go to church. We hope the sex tons of the various churches will see to it, that this cause of complaint shall no longer exist, and that no one hereafter shall be de terred from going to any church by the fear of dusty pews. Ss<w fell at Meadville. Crawford county, on Tuesday, the first in the State.—Harris burg Telegraph. Nov. 8. Not the first by a "sprinkle." Snow fell here on the night of the 30th of Octo ber, sufficient in depth to "make white'' the peaks of the "old Allegheny." For this manifestation, however, arc claim credit for no especial effort ca our part, only that we are a "few flake-" ahead of Meadville on that score. CHITIKE OF A WILD CAT.—Whilst Wm. C- ~ jr.. and a party of others, whoaenarces * - kave not learned, were "coon-hunting" i n" uight last week, their dog ""treed"—not a coos, —but an enormous wild cat, which, after a pretty severe tussel with the dog. they succeeded in capturing. He was rather a fierce looking animal, and judging from the si/.e of his claws, would make an ugly cus tomer iu a "rough-and tumble" encounter with any but an uncommonly "plucky" dog. WE are credibly informed that R. B. Lewis, the present Chief Engineer ot the Connells viile and Southern Penna. Kail Road, has been recently elected President of the Hun tingdon and Broad Top Rail Road Co. Mr. Lewis will make, we have no doubt, ap able and successful President and accomplish all that devotion to duty and a life long experience iu railroad matters can make out of the ma terial placed in his hands. May friend Lewis, long flourish and soon reach old Bedford via Huntingdon aud Broad Top and the Southern Penna. A Connellsville Railroad THE ADVENT OF WINTER. —Our first snow appeared cn the morning of October 31st when the mountains where white for a few hours, iln Tuesdsy last we were treated to a second visit of old //tents in the shape j of sundry snow-squalls covering the bleak ' face of old mother earth, for a brief space, j with a mantle of pure white. We soon may look for the stern old veteran to take up his : residence with us for the the coming 3or 4 months. The youngsters are alieadv on the lookout for him and will give him a hearty J welcome, despite his pranks of frequently pinching unguarded ears. CONSCIENCE MONET.—The Harrisburg l'el- I egraph notices the receipt of $6.00 "eon- . science money," by the agent of the Pennsyl vania Railroad at lhat place, which the wri ter. evidently a woman, had wronged the company oat of by smuggling her boy through without paying fare. This person must be ; credited with having considerable conscience, ' but we give the following as an instance we think, unparalleled in the history of troubled cot-ciences. The letter was received one day last week, by Mr. Mengel. proprietor of the j Mengei House, and explains itself: 1. MEXGLK, Esq.: Dear Sir —Inclosed find fifty-three cents which was wrongfully kept from you for a meal of victuals in Sepi. 1866. BOROUGH SCHOOL'. —The Borough Com mon Schools opened on Monday last, unde r the direction of the following corps of teach ere: Principal —John M. Reynolds. Room Xo. 2—Samuel J. Jordan. " " til—Samuel D. Middleton. " I—Miss Mary Holderbaum. " 3—Miss Jennie Smith. '* " 6 —Miss Maggie J. O'Connor. Iu our judgment these are very judieious selections, all being possessed of experience and the necessary qualifications for efficient teachers. LIKE AT LEAMEKSVU.LE, BLAIR COI STT Between tw„ and three o'clock on Saturday morning, the 2d ins:., flames were discovered issuing from the barn attached to the "Learn er-vi;!e Hotel." about five miles south west of Hoifidaysburg. Blair county, kept by Mr. ; Perry G. Trout. The tire was first discover ed by Mr. Trout, who was sleeping in a room, the -riudows of which overlooked the burning builting. and who promptly spread the alarm. • ■ t a strong wind blowing at the time, ren dered fruitless all efforts to save the build* ing<. and the barn, stable, wagon-shed and ; n-crib with their contents, together with three valuable horses aad two mules, were consumed. A very considerable amount of gram, bay, and rye was destroyed, involving i mis of about $5,000. The buildings and two-fifths of the grain belonged to the heirs i: Samuel Learner, dee'd. and the personal property to Mr. Trout, who feels his loss •erv severely. The origin ot the tire is be -yed to be the work of an incendiary. HI HOTI; 81-AMS. —Articles ot Agreement tween Directors and Teachers. Checks, Boudss of Collector*.

It opens with an article entitled "George the third and Lord Xorth ," in which the long popularly received opinion, that Lord North and not the King was res ponsible for the tyrranny and mismanage mefit that eventually alienated the American Colonies, is controverted and the ignomioi j ooa burthen laid npou the shoulders of the King. "'The United State* Xaral Obserrato- J D gives an account of the conduct of this national institution by no means flattering to j American ideas of progress even in Astrono my. The rebel Maury comes in for a large 1 share of the responsibility for the neglect i and mismanagement that have characterized the establishment almost from its foundation j i© the breaking out of the rebellion, when the ! institution was reliered from his apparently worse than useless presence. The work of j the Observatory during the first four yaars j and the last four is pronounced by the writer highly creditable to the country. In "The Bank of England Restriction' is given a brief history of the financial difficulties which ; called forth the Restriction of hill 1797, and i which continued to disturb the British finan' | ces for a long succession of years. The re | view of " The Letter* and Remains of At- I thur Hugh Plough" is an nppreciatire sketch of the Life and works of this English scholar and poet. A high and deserved tribute is paid to his honesty and independence of "hought. in his lite at Oxford, where the nearest way to promotion lies through the adoption of the fossilized ideas and walk ing iu the beaten ways of a past age. Cast ing off the shackles of em ply forms and hol low professions, he chose for his portion lib erty of thought and moral independence, rather than the comfortable offices that reward the sacrifice of intellectual and moral independence. I'M Citil See-rice of the United States, is a discussion of a subject, of deep interest to tvery good citizen: and in view of the appaling corrup tion in almost every department and the de plorable incompetency of many of our high officials, independent of party, there are few who will not heartily concur in tne humilia ting but true declaration contained in the opening sentence, that "the condition of the civil service of the United States is deplora ble." The writer takes strong ground in favor of competitive examinations for all offi ces in the civil service except such as are ap pointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. The passage of the bill of Jenckes from Rhode Island, introduced in the last Congress, is strongly advocated, with an extension so as to embrace the for eign service. May the day -oon dawn that shall see some such system adopted and the tide of political corruption now prevailing with such lamentable consequences through out the service, at leas: checked,if not finally stayed. "Our Xatioruil Schools of Science." "Keg and Oppert on Indo-European Pkilolo gy," "The Reformation of Ihrison Ihscip liue,'' and "The Winthrop Papers" bring us to "Critical Sotices" in which we find a very severe but doubtless just criticism of "Dra per's History oj the American Cicil ICar," his contradictions and inconsistencies are shown up in a manner not the most credita ble to the Doctors integrity and ability as a philosopher. We would commend a careful perusal of it, to the admirers of the learned Doctor.

[VVe are pleased to give the following local correspondence a place in our column*. This is what we desire from our friends in the country, and more especially from tbe thriving towns—such as Bloody Bun. Our columns *re open to any thing of local inter est that is brought to our knowledge.—Eos.] BLOODY Rex, Nov. ytb I*o7. EDITORS Ixqt IRER: Once in a while we m*y with strict propriety indulge iu a few jottings by the wayside, and chronicle a few items that come under our observation, and classify them according to their several merits. The people abroad, who know but little of the local affairs of Bloody Hoc, might be sur prised upon visiting it, to see the unparallel ed activity and vivacity in improvmeuts and business transactions here. It is fair to pre sume that a correct index of the prosperity of a place is its rapid growth, and this .we as sume to be sufficient testimony that Bloody Uau may now be classed as the centre of trade, and the convolving point for a radius of sev eral miles of country, inhabited by a thrifty, prosperous, and peaceful population. Xo adequate idea cau be given within the com pass of a sh„rt article, of the extent of trade carried ou here; it must be witnessed to be fully realized, and the busy hum of every day is ample evidence that energy and capaccity are characteristics of this people. The prin cipal business places of the town are the tirms of J. B. Williams 4 Co., J. M. Barudollar 4 Son. Gump. Baugbman 4 Co., F. M. Masters, J. Bamsey 4 Co. C. F. Biake, Jacob Barndollar 4 Son, besides many other places which for want cf space we cannot now men tion. # lite late building improvements are those of J. Harris, J. Baughmau, and F. Snider, all elegant and of the most approved modern style, nearly completed, and those just com menced are Daniel Ott's, A.J. Nycum'sCapt. States, William Wisel's, and others, all of which will add much to the beauty of the town; and evince a spirit of enterprise on the part of the citizens that is certainly commend able. The Lutheran congregation here, have also under course of construction a large church edifice, which, when completed will be an or nament to the town, and an honor to them. The population of Bloody Run at the pres ent time is about six hundred. Four Chur ches, (including the one now building,) and a large brick school houso are conspicuous monuments of the intelligence, perseverance, and morality of this community. The town contains many handsome dwellings, adorned with choice shrubbery which gives them a beaatifal and attractive appearance. Bat the name of the town seems to sound so harshly abroad that many might suppose it to be some obscure and uninviting spot among the Alle ghanian hills, where terror lurks in erery nook. It was doubtless an applicable one when given to the stream from which the town derives its name, because its bosom was crimsoned with the blood of the white man when in deadly conflict with the Indian, while yet a wilderness; but tbe war path has given place to broad roads, and the huntiuggronnds to cultivated fields, and tbe Run is a beautiful and silent brook: gliding gently along for a mile, passing through the town beneath the drooping branches of the weeping willow, and in the precincts mingles its crystal stream with tbe ruffled waters of Juniata's principal tributary. This view wonld therefore suggest a more pleasing and appropriate name for the town now, which might and should be Belle brook. That would, iu the minds of those who hear of it but have not seen it in spire a better opinion of its character. It is indeed no isolated locality: but has advantages for those who seek wealth, tran quility or pleasure. J. E. SATTEBTELD. Tut DIAMOND DICKENS. —LittIe Dorrit. the eighth volume of the dainty littla "Dia mond Edition'' of Dickens is now out, com pleting nearly two-thirds of the whole series. The same merits that we have admitted for the former volumes of this edition mark the present volume, namely, compactness, beauty of typography.substantial paper.characteristic illustrations, handiness of size, elegance of appearance and remarkable cheapness. It slips easily into an ordinary coat pocket, tak ing up bat little apace, whilst it is handsome enough, inside and out, for tbe library shelf or the parlor table. — Cleveland Herald. Tbe probability that Dickens will shortly come to this country to give readings from his works makes it desirable for all who hope to hear and thoroughly appreciate him, to be acquainted with his wondertul writings. Tb" Diamond Edition renders this practicable for all. The cost of each volume of the beautiful Illustrated Diamond Dtckens is only 31 50; plain edition, sl. 'Jo. It can be procured of any bookseller, or will be sent postpaid by the Publishers. Ticknor and Fields, -Boston. Consumption Curable by Dr. Sthcnck's Medicines. To cure eonsumption, the system must be pre pared fo 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 i igeated prop erly, and good healthy blood made: thus build ing up the constitution. Schenck'- Mandrake Bill's cleanse tbe stomach of ail billions or mucous accumulations: and by using the Sea Weed Tonic in connection, the appetite is restored. Schenck'* 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, which will repel all dis ease. If patients will take the-e medicines ac cording to directions. Consumption very frequent Ily in iu last stage yields .readily to theu 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 sometimes iu dianbtea tbey 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 as possible, eat all the richest foo l—fat meat, game, and, in fact, any thing the appetite craves: but he particular and masticate well. Please observe, when purchasing, that tbe two likenes-es of the Doctor, one when in the last stage of Consumption, and tbe other as he now is in perfect health, are on Government stamp.

Mure than FORTY MILLION DOLLARS IN MONEk have already been expended by the twopowerfu companies that have undertaken the enterprise and there is no lack o! lands for its most vigoroui prosecution. When the laitel States Govern ment found it necessary to sactiie the construc tion of the I. nion Pacific Railroad, to develop sill protect its own interests, it gave the Companies authorized to build it such ample aid as shouh render its speedy completion beyond a doubt The available means of the Vnion Pacific Rail road Company, derived from the Government an-: its own stockholders, may be briefly summed ui as follows: I.—UNITED STATE- BONDS Having thirty years to ran and bearing six < ei cent, currency interest at the rate of $16,000 pe; mile for il7 miles on the Plains; then at the rati of SIB,OOO per mile for 150 miles through thi Rocky Mountains; thence at the rate of $32,001 per mile for the remaining dsztance, for which thi United States takes < second lieu as security. Thi interest on these bonds is paid by the Unitec States government, which also pays the company one-bait the amount of ita bills in money for trans porting its freight, troops, mails, Ac. The re maining half of these bills is placed to the com pany's credit, and forms a sinking fund which may finally discharge toe whole amount of this lien. The claims against the government sines April of the current year amount to four and one half times this interest. 2—FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS. By its charter the Company is permitted to is sue its own First Mortgage Bonds to the same amount as the bonds issued by the government, and m more, and only at the road proyreeeee. The Trustees for the bondholders are the Hon. E. D. Morgan, l r . S. Senator from New York, and the Hon. Oakes Ames, Member of the I*. 8.
