MOSEY WASTED. —We believe we have
as prompt paying subscribers and patrons as
any newspaper iu the country can boast of.
and we are therefore not inclined to com
plain. But not being able to go oat among
our people to collect, when we are in need ot
money we are obliged to call on them through
the columns of our paper. The books of the
late firm of Durborrow k Lutz are in our
bands fur settlement and on them we find a
large number of unsettled accounts for ad
vertising and subscriptions, amounting to sev
eral thousand dollars. There are outstanding
debts of the late firm which must be met and
paid, and to enable us to do this we must rely
upon our patrons for prompt payments. They
have never yet failed ns when called upon and
we are confident that they will not now. But
ai a further inducement, we will accept, from
all who are in arrears for subscriptions and
who pay for the past year and the year in ad
vance, before or during September Court, $2
per year, the same as if they had paid for all
in advance. We have greatly enlarged and
improved our paper, at a heavy expense,
without any increase in its price, and the lib
eral terms now offered cannot be extended be
yond September Court. All parties not pay
ing up at that time will be strictly held to the
advertising rates viz; $2 in advance, $2.25
if not paid in advance, $2,50 if not paid with
in six mouths and $-1.00 if not paid within
the year. Call and settle. Now is the time
to save money by prompt payment.

Another large Grant and Colfax Campaign
Club meeting was held in the Court House,
on Saturday evening last.
The Silver Cornet Band was in attendance
and entertained the audience with their
choicest patriotic airs. The meeting was du
ly called to order by Jacob Barohart, Esq.,
President of the Club, when, on motion, the
following officers were elected for the ensu
ing term:
Indent— SlMON NAUB.
Vice Presidents —WlLLlA* KISER, VACHEL

Y ONDKRSMITH.
Recording Secretary —D. S. ELLIOTT.
Corresponding Secretary— Captain R. W.

Treasurer— JOHS LUTZ, Esq.
The following resolutions offered by John
T. Keagy, Esq., were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, Divine Providence has bereaved
us by death of the services and usefulness of
one of our patriot Statesmen, the Hon.
Thaddeus Stevens, in whose wisdom and skill
in the management of National affairs we re
posed the greatest confidence, and
WHEREAS it is fitting that we should ex
press our sense of the loss which the country
has sustained in his death, therefore
Resolved. By the Grant and Colfax Club of
Bedford that we deeply regret the removal
from the field of action of one who labored
so zealously, honestly, wisely, and patriotica!
ly for the good of the land.
Resolved. That we shall ever cherish the
memory of the true courage and firmness wiih
which he labored to deieud the rijriit and ad
vance the good.
Resolved, That in the recent great national
contests, in which he contended with the ene
mies of the county to the last, we behold an
example of undying devotion to the Fnion,
which should nerve us to renewed efforts to
secure for our country the blessings for which
be sacrificed rest and health, and finally life
itself. ew
Hon. T. J. Coffey, latlf assistant Attorney
General of the United States was then intro
duced and in a speech of an hours length
logically treated the questions now affecting
the people, examined the status of the iate
rebellious states, referred to the provisional ;
governments established by Congress, iht
rights of the conquerors, the duties of sub
dued belligerents, and the relations now sub- j
sisting between these territories and the
legislative power. At the conclusion of his 1
address Mr. Coffey made an earnest appeal to
the people of this District to elect their local
standard bearer, the Hon John Cessna to Con- ,
gress. showed the interest manifested in our
success in Philadelphia, and in all portions of
the country. His allusions to Mr. Cessna
were greeted with tremenduons -cheers.
Col. Geo. F. McFarlaud, known and be- i
loved throughout the Commonwealth as the
Superintendent of the Soldiers' Orphans'
Schools, was rapturously applauded on ma- 1
king bis appearance, supporting himself on
his remaining shattered limb, having lost the j
other on the field of Gettysburg. Right nmn- j
fully did the brave soldier plead in behalf of
General Grant. Standing there a monument '■
of rebel inhumanity and butchery, who could
withstand his doubly eloquent appeals to his
late comrades in arms to rally round the ■
standard of Ulysses S. Grant. The appear- i
ance of such a gallant citizen was a stinging '
rebuke to the miserable rebel crew that yell
ed obedience to the picked beauties from Ma- •
ryland, and cheered the Louisiana Tigers that
cracked their whips over the tender backs of
fiunsy Democrats in our town at their recent
gatherings.
Hon. John Cessna being loudly called for
made a brief, earnest speech, planting him
self squarely on the principles for which all
loyal men are now battling.
CAMF MEETING. —A camp meeting'ol con
siderable interest has been in progress since
last Thursday, on the Schellsburg Circuit near
Hillegas' Mill in Nspier township. The lo
cation of the camp is a beautiful one, and
there are twenty-four tents erected on the
ground. On Sabbath there was between three
thousand and four thousand people in atten
dance. The utmost good order prevailed
throughout the day, a fact which speaks
creditably for the large and promiscuous
crowd present. The Rev. McMurrar, au
eminent Methodist minister from Altoona
preached an able and impressive sermon on
Sabbath morning. Rev. B.G.W.Reid, ol Bed
ford. conducted the afternoon service in a
most affecting and powertul discourse. Rev.
Hyde, of Holiidaysburg, preached an eloquent
and effective sermon in the evening, followed
by an exhortation by Rev. Barnhart, Presi
ding Elder of the District. A number
professed conversion during the progress of
the meeting.

The Heated Term.
Augns' is invariably an unhealthy month, and
the dog-days are aniverjally quoted as an un
healthy reason. Diseases more frequently ter
minate fatally at- this time than at any other, ow
ing to the relaxation of the system. This is,
therefore, the proper time to use a remedy that
will recuperate the strength and fortify the sys
tem against the attacks of disease. Experience
has demonstrated the fact that HOSTETTER'S
STuMACH BITTERS is the best medicine used
to accomplish this desirable object. By its use
the appetite is increased, digestion promoted, all
feelings of depression removed, and the vital
functions restored. The afflicted should avoid
all pernieioas alcoholic preparations purporting
to be tonics and restoratives, as they only afford
letnporary exhilirafions, and eventually entail i
dangerous, if not fatal, results. This fc never the
ense with HOSTKTTER'B STOMACH BIT
TER'S. They afford permanent benefit and
soot ha the nerves without reaction following their
use. The weak and debilitated, by ite aid,
awake tc a sense of the enjoyments of life, and
they are enabled once more to lake their accus
tomed position* in society. HOSTETTER'S
BITTERS are now considered the standard rem
edy for all diseases arising from as impurity of
the blood. They are manufartared in great quan
tities, and there is scarcely a city or hamlet on
he habitable globe where they may npt be found.
