RASCALLY.—A strenuous effort was made, y certain "narrow-minded" leatber-heads to : ring about tbe impression that the ceremo ny of decorating the soldiers' graves on last Saturday was to be a political affair! Ore or two "pap-suckers" were influenced to stay out of the ranks on this account. When, 0, when, will the "whelps" who aspire to lead the Democratic party leara to be honest? or cease to rob the dead of their glory for parti an purposes? A Si GGESTiox. —We would suggest that tbe Mrs. Surratt Nine," who made np acousid crable portion ot the audience at the "Kerr Hancock Fizzle" on la.-t Saturday night, be made a "Special Committee on Applause," and assigned to a position where they will not b an annoyance to decent folks. This is -uggested ut tbe instance of parties who were c| j used to the execution of MadameSurratt La! favor for President the man who acted as i:er executioner. AwErL.'—The Post of the G. A. R. at this place, with "its some half dozen mem bers, ali told," has become a source ot much ■ vance to certain Democratic orators, llec-on : the men who compose it are the ume who quashed the rebellion and smotb ■ red the hopes of the Copperheads to de trcy the I'nion. Further: none but such a- l ave honorable discharges from the Union > r :e can join. This provision excludes ; rheads. cowards and insubordinate ex army officers. "They made her a grave 100 cold and damp For a soul so honest and true." If they had been wise, the dire neccessity of opening the grave for"one so lovely might ' ten averted. Plantation Bitters, if :nu !y ...ed, are sure to rescue the young and I ovtly, the middle aged and the ailing, from confirmed sickness. Almost all diseases have their beginning in i.trc* iiiqht difficulty.of the Stomach, which would eventuate in Dyspepsia, Headache, Liver Complaints, Night Sweats, Consump tion, Death. Plantation Bitters will prevent these premonitory symptoms, aud keep the blood pure and the health good. LOOKOUT EOR SHAD.—The wisdom of the Legislature in passing an act authorizing the I destruction of chutes in the Susquehanna river and its tributaries has been most satis fuctorily vindicated. Do the 25th of May last Mr. Mitchell caught seventy shad, at a single haul, at Newport, on the Juniata, 28 miles this side of Harrisburg. We may expect them up this way if chutes are placed in all the dams belew us. Let tbe authorities see that this is done, and while we are waiting for them we would advise our friends to pay our •steemed friend, 11. F. Irvine, of the Regula tor, a visit and examine his extensive supply f boots, shoes, queensware, glassware, no i .-. Ac. Ac., just received from Philadel phia. Henry is ahead of the shad, may his 'ow never grow less. There is nothing shy in 'his. PITTSBURGH TO NEW YORK.—The distance fr- m Pittsburgh to New York byway of the nnelisville, Sherman's Valley aud Allen- n routes are as follows: ■l urgb to llarrisburg 270 ui Hen ri-burg to New York JS2 utiles. 1 :?':.urg to New York 452 miles The grades upon this route are consider v higher than on the Allegheny Valley f id, but greatly more favorable than those the Pennsylvania Central. Tbat part of the proposed line between Harrisburg and the Connellsville road was surveyed by James ■icirrall, Esq.. v. ho bas for twenty-five vears been one cf the ica ling engineers in Pennsvl vatna, and his report is perfectly reliable both as tc distance and the easy practicability of the route. His estimate of tbe cost in 18H3 was $45,000 per mile—distance by survey one hundred and thirty-five miles. JHtts burgh Commercial. "ABROAD EOR NEWS."—The Bloody Run l'. css "raps us over the knuckles" for cred g certain items of local interest to tbe itingdoa ( lobe, which originally appeared ■ n ,c l imns. We ate quite willing to uu..ie the amende honorable. We sugges d. at the time, that the items might have !l ! cared in the Press previously to their ap -.usii: i e ia tbe Globe, but the latter gave no ' ait, and the l*rest, not being at hand, we .ow, j our usual mode ot accrediting all -■•- v. cop:,-,! to the paper producing it as ■ r-irial. Here our responsibility ended, and re any breach of courtesy it was wtween the Globe and the P. ess' If we paid strict attention to tbe local columns the Press, the credit wonld doubtless have "D properly given. Bat this we failed to do, and consequently, we were obliged, i.he our neighbor, which this week accredits a stm.ii item to the Standard 'that appeared :A tbe INQUIRER several week* Stnqe. to go GRATUITOUS ADVERTISING —WBAT IS EX PECTED OP COUNTRY NEWSPAPERS. —Country newspapers, as a general tbiog, are owned by private individuals and conducted for the benefit of their proprietors, and the recipro cal effect which they produce upon those who subscribe for them. Their number is regu lated by the demand, and in this respect they are like any other business in the commuuity— the silversmith, the grocer, the merchant, the tinker, the tailor, all of which are gov | erned by the same inexorable rule. Printing material, to stock the business, must be : bought and paid for in the same way that the I conductors of any of the above named branches of business would be compelled to | pay. The labor which is necessary, in the prosecution of the business, must be hired aud paid for in the same manner that the la i bor in any other business is paid for. In ' every respect, then, the publication of coun try papers is a legitimate business, conducted for the mutual advantage of those who sell and those who buy, or those who publish and those who subscribe. There appears to be no difference in the prosecution of this busi ness aud that of any other established occu pation. The man who buys a pound of cof tee, a yard of muslin, or a suit of clothes, pays a fair equivalent in money and he is re lieved from any further responsibility to the j tradesman from whom he buys, so it is with j the man who subscribes for a newspaper and i pays for it, he receives a fair equivalent for his mouey in half a hundred newspapers, which entertain him and his family night af ter night, week after weei throughout the twelve long months. Can any one suppose, for a moment, that the publisher who has received two paltry dollars, (or perhaps hasn't received them,) for an article which has cost him thrice as much, is under any obligations to his subscriber ? Or, is under any obligation to the merchant, or tinker who avails himself of bis published adverti zing rates to advertise his wares for his own special benefit? We say most emphatically j that he is under no more obligation to him ; than those who buy tbe wares of these trades- ; men at their counters and pay a fair equiva lent for them in hard cash or greenbacks. Tbe transaction is only tbe reciprocity of trade —value for value. Let us examine this matter. No man can do business in a community, successfully, un less Ihe community is made acquainted with the nature of his wares and his place of do ing business. This is settled beyond question; it is common sense. Now, then, there are various ways of advertizing. First and fore most is by judicious advertizing in the col umns of the public press. This is con sidered, by men who understand the success ful prosecution of business, as by far the best aud cheapest method, secondly, by a judi cious dbtribution of flaming placards, and thirdly, by the employment of "runners," or "puffers," which are, very -frequently, called "blowers and strikers." These are the t bree principal methods. Let us look at tbe cost of tbe two latter. The man who rides, or walks over the country, with brush and pot, must be paid a round sum. In ad dition to his wages, bis expenses, not a trifle, must be paid, and then it will take him an age to travel over the same ground that an edition of a newspaper will travel over in a single day; then, again, the man who designs the brands and stencils must be paid, well paid ; taking all together it is rather a dear way of advertizing. But suppose tbe person advertizing does not desire to advertise so extensively and he hires a man to write or paint liirn placards. He cannot even have an ordinary sign painted, which will be seen by few. for the same price that be' can have an advertisement inserted in a newspaper that will be read by thousands. As for the last class, it is equally expensive, as must be apparent to any reasonable man. But it is not so much the expense that we are at, as a desire to exhibit the feelings of the advertiser and the means employed. Here he employs his roan, pays his price, pays his expenses, and when tbe object is accomplished, each goes bis way. It is an ordinary business transaction. Neither the employer nor the employe considers himself under any ! obligation to ibe other. Each has rendered equivalent for equivalent. But not so, the country press, the poorest paid, at least this is our experience. Why is this? Our readers will excuse us for treating this subject at such great length,; but we desire, in an humble way, to insist upon the independence of our profession, | and to establish our claim to such independ- j ence. by such substantial reasons as will ap- I peal to the good sense of those whom we ad dress. We are free to say that we publish ! the INQUIRER for profit, consistently advoca- i ting the principles ot the party which we ! have espoused. In this we fill a position that is demanded by the necessities of the Be- j publican community surrounding us. We J claim that we give to every man, who deals with us, a fair and an honest equivalent. In other words, itntead of being under obliga tions to those, who see that it is to their ad vantage to avail themselves of our commodi ties, we contend that they are only paying us for what belongs to us and what they find it advanlageou, for them to-buy. And we ap peal to ar.y sensible man to say whether we ] have not as much right to be paid tor our means of advertizing as tbe man who carries his pot and brush, his placards, or posts his bills ? We make it a duty, aud believe it to be tbe duty of the local press everywhere, to spare no honest means to advance the local interests of the community in general. Tbe local press which docs not do this is greatly derelict in duty. This we have uever failed to do, nor have we spared friend nor foe who has stood in the way of tbe interests of this community, but while we have never failed to stand by tbe commuuity, and the best interests of the party, we insist upon being paid, for all labor and materials fur nished individuals or associations of individ uals. as much so as tbe merchant, tbe tailor, the tinker, and the silversmith have a right to insist upon being paid for their wares upon w hic-h they make their profit. Let us illustrate this matter. Publishers are daily, almost hourly asked "to doso much in charity," and there are no five single oc cupations in the community which do so much in this way. It is needless for us to ! cite the numberless charitable, religious, and political objects which the press weekly fur thers without the remotest thanks. But there must be a line of distinction somewhere and we draw it right here. We hold that it is our duty to give our readers all the local general news, but the moment we are asked to further individual interests we want pay, just as much as any other tradesman insists upon his right to be paid for his commodi- ! ties. \\ hat objection can be urged to this? j If one individual is entitled to the benefit of 1 ourjmlumns. free of charge, every other in ; dividual in the community has a right to de mand as much. If (his is a logical conclusion where is the privilege to end? Must news papers be filled up with matter ot personal interest, at the expense of the publisher, to , gratify the whims of some one, whoif refused, j flies into a rage, and swears that he will j withhold his paltry two dollars a year from the paper that has been worth mora, in one ; month, to the community in which it is pub lished, than he bas been in ali bis life? But, i why ask the publisher to do that which no other tradesman is asked to do? If we desire j to replace a screw, the blacksmith asks pay; if we wish anew handle to onr mullet, the car- I peoter says only, a dime; if we require a yard of tape, the shop-keeper blandly s .diss and , says, "only live cents;" if we thirst for a i iaact:j of ice-cream, Uw Saloon Ixcopcr says "oniy a dime and a half sir," and we have seem the day when we desired to drive away Dull Care with a "wee drap of the 0 be joy ful, and when we did so, the obsequious bar-tender swept away the tenceut shinplaster with as much "pomp and circumstance" as if it had been an eagle. We never refuse to pay. These are small things but who would deny the right of any of the aboee tradesmen tochargel Be would be looked upon as an idiot who did. Then why is the publisher who pays cash for every sheet of paper, for every pound of ink, and for tbe setting of every type to be cried out of countenance because he wants to be paid for his products? Let those who seek complimeuts and free ad vertising answer! IN MEMORlAM.— Decorating the Soldiers' Graces. —Saturday last, the day previously designated for the strewing of flowers on the graves of deceased soldiers, was appropriately observed by a very respectable number of the surviving soldiery of the town and neighbor hood. At two o'clock in the afternoon, a meeting was organized in the Court House Hall, with Capt. ADAM WEAVERI.ISO, of Bloody Bun, as Chairman. The exercises were opened with prayer by Rev. Wilson, of the Presbyterian Church of this place. Lieut. ; John Keeffe aud Private George Stiffler, of j Bedford, and Serg't. B. A. Cooper, of Clear j ville, were made Vice Presidents, and Corp. WM. W. Barclay and WM. Bollinger, of Bedford, Secretaries. A committee consist ing of Corp. J. T. Keagy and Capt, Thomas H. Lyons, of Bedford, and Corp. JamcsOver, of St. Ciairsville, were appointed to report resolutions expressive of the occasion. A short address was then delivered by Lieut. J. H. Lougenecker, and the committee re ported the tollowing resolutions, which were adopted: 1. Resulted , That we look back with pleas ing recollections to our associations in the army; that from a condition of peace we are happy to behold the success of our military : labors; that w feel grateful to Providence for i our safe deliverance from the deadly shafts | of the enemy, tbe malaria of Southern camps, tbe stench and deprivations of the Southern prisons: that we sincerely deplore tbe fate that befel some of our comrades, whose names we love aud cherish, and to whose memory it is now our pleasure to bestow a meed of respect, by placing upon theirjgraves tokens of our appreciation, like which they came forth and were cut down. 2. Resolved , That as the sacrifices of our fathers in the war of the Revolution was the price of our national liberty, so the sacrifices of the nation's soldiery, to which the sleep ing dead contributed most, in tbe war of the Rebellion, is the price of its preservation, and together were gifts laid upon tbe altar of uor common country, for which, "God hath not dealt so with any nation," and which de serve to be held in memory by all who pride themselves in the greatness and glory of tbe American Republic. 8. Resolved, That the lamented soldiers known to us, who breathed their latest breath upon the soil but lately so pregnant with strife, with disease and want, the place of some whose resting is au eternal secret hid den in the bosom of tbe Deity, and whom since we canaot honor as those whom the tide of events has placed amongst u, have as ever, a spot in our memory yet verdant with the dew that appeared with the dawn of peace. A procession was then formed under the command of Capt. Thomas H. Lyons, assist ed by Lieut. Levi Smith, Capt. R. W. Cook, and private B. M. Blymyer. The line of march was taken np for the Bedford Ceme tery, after which the various grave yards were visited. A wreath of laurel, emblematic of deserved fame, and a bunch of flowers were dropped on each grave, the whole being placed in the shape of a cross. Altogether, nine graves were visited, being those of Maj. W. W. Anderson, late of the 2d Pa. Cav., Private Watson King, of Co. "E," 76th Pa. Vols., Private Joseph Dodson, of the— In diana Vols., Private J. D. Saupp, of Co. "K," ,15th Pa. Vols., (the first soldier from Bed ford killed in action,) Corp. Levi Agnew, of Co. "E," 761h Pa. Vols., Private David Crane, of Co. "E," 138 th Pa. Vols., Serg't. Washington Herring, of Co. "K," 55tb Pa. Vols., Private Jeremiah Brown, of Battery "F," sth U. S. Art., and Privats Jacob Radebaugh, of Co. "K," 65th Pa. Vols. Ap propriate music was rendered during the ceremonies by the Democratic Brass Baud, | relieved by an occasional martial piece per formed by the Drum Corps under the super vision of Messrs. Lawrence Defibaugh and Josiah Haley. Upon returning to the Court House, it was stated that the custom thus in augurated was intended to be kept up from i year to year, so long as there was living one ' comrade to do honor to the memory of bis ; departed brothers. Altogether, the cere j monies were impressive aud of a solemn i character, although the number of ex-soldiers • in ranks was not as large as might have been expected on an occasion of the kind. ! BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE.for May contains j so many articles of interest, that we feel ! bound to call the attention of our readers to j it with more than usual earnestness. The first article is an historical sketch —"Lord Chesterfield, the Man of the World." Many have heard of Chesterfield's Letters, but few know anything of the -man. The present biographical sketch is very readable, and will give a more correct opinion of him than is j likely to be formed from reading bis book. "Horse-flesh" contains a few hints to those who are making up their minds to introduce a new article of diet. "Unlucky Tim Griffin, his Love and his Lock," is the commence ment of a new and lively story, which will cause this number to be much called for, and we advise auy one hesitating about subscrib ing to hesitate no longer. An article on tbe Odes of Horace appeared in the April num ber, and in the present issue the subject is contiuued, and illustrated with numerous translations and runniug notes on the best Odes. We wilt notice only one more article. Cornelius O'Dowd bas a couple of papers in his usual style. It is difficult to characterize this series, opinions arc so diverse upon its merits: au intelligent frked of ours styles it "unmitigated trash," another equally intelli gent calls it "immortal." Perhaps it is a lit tle of both. Published by the Leonard Scott Publishing Company, 140 Fulton Stree, N. Y. UNCLAIMED LETTERS, remaining in the Post Office at Bedford, Pa., June Ist, 1868. — J. M.

ESQ., AND A SOCTUKRN PBSNSTLVANIA TRUNK RAILWAY USE. —At a railroad Convention, held at Mercergburg, Franklin county, on Wednes day, May the 20th, 1868, for the purpose of organizing the Huntingdon, Fulton and Franklin Railroad Company, '"Agitation" John Dougherty, Esq., of Mt. Union, Hunt ingdon county, in the course of some remarks before the Convention spoke as follows of the adaptability of this route to a great National railway between the east and the west: Mr. Chairman : On the completion of the Central Pacific Railroad, the Atlantic Division thereof, in my opinion, should follow nearly on an air-line from the Missouri river, via Springfield, Indianapolis, Columbus, Wheel ing, Ilarrisburg and Trenton to New York. On this route the freight railroad, referred to in the report of the President of the P. R- R- Company, ought to be built instead of via Erie and Philadelphia railroad, on which burthen cars, running 6 miles an hour, and drawn by locomotives running over the line of railroad, would be enabled to compete with river freight lines via Mobile and New Orleans to New York, for the tonnage trade of the Ohio, Mississippi and Missouri val" leys. The line would run from Cowan's Gap to the base of the Alleghenies, a distance of about 30 miles, requiring short tuunels through the crests of Cove mountain, Side ling and Ray's Hills, Evitts', Dunniogs', and Will's mountains, aud thence by grades of, say 50 feet, to near the summit of the Alleghenies, where a tunnel, of less than a mile in length, would give an easy grade and adirect road to Wheeling, Virginia, much short er than the B. A O. Railroad, and turn the current of overland trade, forall future time t to Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington cities. The city of Philadelphia controling this high ridge would have the advantage in dis tance and grade over the B. A. O. Railroad following the valley of the Potomac. From the base of the Alleghenies, south of Bedford to Philadelphia, the distance, via Fort Louden, would be about 210 miles, whereas the distance to Baltimore by the B. & 0. Railroad from Cumberland, is 180 miles with 500 feet more mountain height to over come than from this water shed and grades of 120 feet, these advantages would give to Philadelphia the control of the tonage trade of the south west, as compared with the B. A O. Railroad route. But should the citizens of Philadelphia be insane enough to attempt to compete with New York for the trade of the south west, via the Erie and Philadelphia railroad, as proposed by the lesees of that road, then the citizens of Baltimore would, no doubt, under our free railroad law, build their Connellsville and Pittsburg road along this water shed and cause this great trade to follow the most direct route to the city of Baltimore. Thus, from the water shed south of Bedford to Cowan's Gap, thirty miles, and thence via Mercersburg to Hagerstown, 28 miles, and via W. Md. Railroad, 78 miles to Baltimore, (total 136 miles), thus saving in distance and advantage in grades, as 50 is to 100 feet per mile, would enable Baltimore city to control the overland tonage trade and there build a commercial city on the Chesapeake Bay, the realization of more than Carthagenian, Phccnitian, Venitian and later dreams of commercial greatness. Mr. Chairman—l infer that the southern Pennsylvania freight railroad will ere long be put under contract, and that the Pennsyl vania Railroad company will aid you in building this link in the net work of Railroads by which the passenger travel from CLicago via Pittsburg, Mt. Union and Mercersburg to the capital of the nation may be carried at a saving of upwards of 80 miles, as compared with the route via Baltimore, and thus retain the passenger travel from Washington city to Chicago, and with her freight roilwoy com mand the tonnage trade frem the southwest. And as all these three railroad routes must occupy the same water courses, through the mountains of Franklin and Falton counties, here in your midst will grow up, ere long, workshops to make, and warehouses' to vend the wares and products with which you will be enabled to supply the citizens of every clime and nation more cheaply than perhaps any other people can do. Sir, this future pathway of nations was first trod by the red man, and followed by the trapper and trader. Fort Louden, Fort Littleton and Fort Shirley defended the pioneer trade and travel from the Eastern cities to the Northwest in the days of Wash ington, and indicate the most direct and practicable Railroad route from the Lakes to the Cbesapeak Bay, and Fort Bedford and Necessity indicate the route Col. Washington .led the army of General Braddock when Great Britain met her first, tbongh not her last defeat, in her contest for commercial supremacy in the Valley of the Ohio, then, as now, an outpost on the route to India.

SCICIDE. — On Friday Morning last the body of a man wag found, banging on the 1: tab of a fallen tree, about six miles east of Bedford, close by the turnpike. J. A. Gump, Esq., summoned a jury and held an inquest over the body. From papers found on his person, we learn that the man was from Prussia. His name was Frederick Kleinman, born, in 1821, and left his native country for America in November last. On Thursday he was at Bloody Run, had dinner at one of the hotels there, and afterward started on his journey westward. What caused him to com mit suicide no one will ever know. IMPROVEMENTS — BEDFORD LOOKING HP. —During the present Spring our town lias advanced considerably in way of substantial improvements,—more so than at any time during the past twenty years. Quite a number of new buildings, and additions to old ones, have been erected, and several others are in progress of construction. We have gone to some trouble to gather a list of the various improvements and their na ture, which we give below. It may be that we have overlooked or omitted to mention some in making up the list. Should this be found to be tl ; case, and our attention called to the fact, we shall gladly make amends by promptly giving a deserving no tice. One or two of the buildings we men tion below were begun last Fall, but were not finished until lately, consequently de serve a place among the late improvements: J. J. Shoemaker, proprietor of the Bed ford Hotel, is adding a story to his house, the structure and addition being of stone, and. when finished, will be three stories high. The improvement will add much to the api>earancc and comfort of the building, and make it one of the most desirable hotels in town. Jacob Bowser, of the firm of Miller k Bowser, merchants, has greatly enhanced the beauty and value of the "old Colonade" and "Reamer property," purchased by him this Spring, by enlarging and repairing the store room and otherwise improving the premises by the erection of additional build ings and reconstructing old ones, with re gard £o shape and convenience. The store | room promises to lie one of the finest in j town. B. M. Blymyer has erected a fine brick i dwelling on the lot owned by him on the ! corner of Bedford and John streets. This | is the first building improvement on the j "Watson Extension.'' but it is hoped that i it will be, as we believe it is contemplated, followed by others. The locality is alto gether a desirable one, and although but lately sold into lots, presents a progressive appearance, nearly or quite all of the lots being neatly fenced and planted with young trees and shrubbery, and in process of culti vation. A. J. Dishong has built a dwelling house on a lot in the "Shuck Extension," and we notice that the ground has been broken for several others in the same locality. J. D.

HEAVY STORM.— Struck by Lightning. —On Wednesday afternoon of last week, a heavy rain and thunder storm passed over this section. The storm commenced about three o'clock and continued with unabated fury until after six in the evening. During its prevalence several accidents occurred from lightning. The house of Mr. Charles Stuckey, a few miles west of town, was struck and somewhat damaged. The fluid passed down the chimney into the rooms below, shocking C'apt. Simon Dickerhoof, who was at work in the building. The house is a new one, not yet finished, and consequently not supplied with lightning rods. —Mr. Joseph Gohn. an esteemed citizen of Juniata township, was out during the storm with his team, when the lightning struck and instantly killed the two horses he was driving, and seriously injured him self—the lower part of his body being com pletely paralized. At last accounts he was scarcely expected to survive. —Mr. James Corboy, of this place, while engaged in his stable, with a shovel in his hand, during the passage of the storm, was knocked down by a stroke of lightning and, for a time, rendered helpless. We arc pleas ed to state that but a temporary lameness resulted from the stroke. A NUMBER of persons are availing them selves of our proposition to furnish the Is yi iREii and New York Tribune for one yeai for THREE DOLLARS. They will please re member that we want the money in advance —s2 for the IsqcißEßand $1 for the Tribune, The liberality of the proposition must be ap parent to all and unless we have the money for both papers is ADVANCE, we cannot do it.

Mental depression is a disease of the nervous system, and, of all tbe ills flesh is heir to, it is the one that excites the least sympathy. It is a subject of frequent jests, and is called by various derisive terms: but, although it is often laughed at, it is not easy to laugh the patient oat of the belief that bis ills are real, for it is a real ditorder —the general features of which are constant fear, amiety and gloom. The externa! senses, as well as the mental faculties, often manifest symptoms of derangement. Noise, as of falling water, and ringing in the cars are complained of, while black specks and fiery sparks frequently flit before the vision. Admonitions like these should not be disregarded, as they may, if neglected, terminate in insanity. The seat of the disease is in the brain and nervous system, and to control the mal ady it is necessary to use a powerful tonic and alterative, whicfi will correct and tone those or gans without inflaming the brain. This is the secret of the success of IIOSTETTER'S STOM ACH BITTERS in eases of this kind, for which it is the safest as well as the best of restoratives. In fact it is the only pare and reliable tonic stimuient known. Many nostrums, purporting to be tonics, are puffed up from time to time in the newspapers, but the sufferer had better let tbem alone. IIOSTFTTER'S STOMACH BITTERS has proven itself, by many years of trial, to be in every respect what it is represented to be. On the 23d nit., by the Rev. J. Q. McAtee, Mr. SAMUEL BARCLAY to Mies HENRIETTA BEEGLE. DIED- On the 23d ult., at his residence, in Bedford, after a painful illness, Me. WILLIAM MIL BURN, Sr., aged 84 years, 6 mos. and 16 days. In Rainsburg, April 38, 1863, SUSAN AMAN DA, daughter of Philip Harklcroad, aged 13 years, 3 months, and 18 days. In Snake Spring tp., on the 30th ult., Mrs. MARY KOONS, wife of Peter Koona, aged 37 years. In this place, on the 15th ult., Mrs. MARGA RETTA T., wife of Mr. William P. Schall, aflei a lingering illness, in tbe 39th year of her age. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church. Her sickness, by God's grace, ripened her spirit ual life, BO that her meditations touching spiritual things were sweet, and her resignation to His will increasingly perfect. Calmly and peacefully she fell asleep in Jesus. An affectionate wife, a devoted mother, and a kind friend, leaves an at tached husband, six loving children, and many warm triends to mourn her loss. But God doeth all things well. JTCUJ All advertisements, except public sales and legal notices, will be inserted three months and charged accordingly unless otherwise ordered.
