How THE MATTER STANDS.— It is extremely
unplesant to dun but it is still worse to be
dunned. We are at present under tbe
necessity of doing the former in order to
escape the latter. Wont our patrons take
pity on ns in our dilemma and walk up and
fork over the aWount due us form each one?
It they do there will certainly be a large num
ber ot little accounts squared up pretty short
ly. If they don't there will be a considera
ble amount of rather importunate dunning
done before many weeks. A word to the
wise Ac.,

PLTTSBCRGH AND CoSS KLLSTILLE RAILROAD.
—\\ e clip the following report in reference
to the above mentioned road from tbe
Baltimore American of the 15th inst.,
The regular monthly meeting of the Board
of Directors of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road Company was held on the 14 inst., at
their office, Camden Station, John W.
Garrett, Esq., President, in the chair.
The President stated that ha had bees ad
vised by President Hugfeart and the Chief
Engineer, (B. H. Latrobe, Esq..) of the
Pittsburgh and Connellsville Railroad Com
pany, that the competition for the work
recently advertised for proposals bad been
very active, 173 bids having been received.
Awards have been recommended and con
firmed of contracts to parties who are reliably
represented to be able, experienced and
effective, for thirty-eight sections of the road
between Conitellsville and Cumberland, which
embrace all the heavy work on the line. The
work awarded is estimated, at tbe prices bid,
tc amount to $1,393,905.
The estimates upon which the financial
arrangements for this Company were made
were based upon the condition of the labor
and provision market when higher than at
present; and the Presideut had the gratifica
tion to state that the work, as contracted for,
would amount to $253,901 lees than those
estimates. The contracts were doubtless
secured at these prices in view of the certainty
of prompt cash payment tor the work as it
progresses. This reduction in the cost enables
the Pittsburgh and Couoellsviile Company to
decide to arch the tunnels upon its line
permanently as those works are constructed.
As the line is singularly free from water
courses, and those which are crossed are of
limited width, it has been determined that all
the bridges shall be constructed upon durable
masonry and of iron, so that the whole work
will be of first-class character.
The seven per cent, first mortgage bonds
on tbe Pittsburgh and C-onnellsville Road,
which are being sold at ninety per cent., with
the accrued interest, are proving a very
favorite investment, and the prospect is that
the entire amount will be disposed of in ad
vance of the requirements of the Company.
The contracts require the heaviest work to be
completed within two years, and the work on
sections of a lighter character will be con
tracted for in such time as to insure the
completion of the whole line within that
period.
Much interest and enthusiasm are exhibited
in reference to this work open the entire line
to Pittsburgh and in the Northwest. The
importance of the road to the interests of this
community cannot be overrated. Such was
the practical appreciation of the advantages
of the road to the region through which it
passes that the right of way has been granted
without charge, with trifling exemptions, upon !
the entire line.

Taose DESPATCHES. —Oa election night ex
tensive preparations were made, at a certain
Democratic eetablishment, for reading ont
the good news to the unteirified as the des
patches came in with the big majorities.
Lamps were hung and lighted in front of the
building ana the expectant leaders satin pa
tience awaiting the glorious news. Eight,
nine, ten, eleven o'clock arrives but no news.
| The readers begin to grow uneasy twelve
• o'clock arrives and still the glorious news
1 'ails to come. What can be wrong? The
lights grow dim and the watchers drowsy but
still no news? The wee sma" hours glide by
in dreary, ominous silence, daylight dawns,
the lamps have not been called into requisi
tion. The watchers have fallen asleep at
their posts only to wake up two days After and
inquire if the news has come yet. Surprise,
consternation, chagrin and mortification are
depicted in every countenance as they are in
formed that Peuosylvauia, Ohio, ludiana and
i Nebraska have all gone overwhelmingly lie
publican and worst and most intolerable of
ail, that renegade Cessna has gone and went
and done it, and got himself elected to Cou
j gress in spite of all their frantic efforts. Ihe
| chief mourners over the defunct modern De
I mocracy alias copperheads- alias rebels go
; about the streets for a day or two, with sad
dened, sobered and awfully elongated coun
\ tenances, then ticketed for Salt River they

Narrow Escape. —On Thursday the loth
I instant while engaged in threshing, with a
machine, at the barn of I)r. George Ander
i son, Mr. Jonathan Penuel narrowly escaped
a very serious accident. His clothes were
caught by the tumbling shaft of the machine,
and unable to disentangle himself be was
carried several times around the rapidly
revolving shaft nod his clothes completely
torn from his body. Had his clothing not
given way he would hardly have escaped
I with his life. As it was he escaped with the
, loss of a suit of clothes and a few pretty
severe bruises.
S.vow. —The first snow storm of the season
< ecu red on Saturday moruicg last. A few
miles from town the quantity was sufficient
to whiten the ground for a short time, but
with us a few flakes melting as they fell were
all the visible evidences of the first snow
; storm with which we were favored.
MARK (ST*.
Philadelphia, Oct. 19. —Trade is in sym
pathy with the weather, and has a downward
movement. Clover seed is lower,_and cannot
be quoted over $7 25(5;7 59- The season for
timothy being over there is no demand for
that article. There are private sales of flax
seed at $2 75 V bus. The flour market is
exceedingly quiet and dull, and the demand
is confined to the wants of the home trade,
and though there is a quo,able change from
•Saturday's quotations, it is useless to deny
that tor common grades the tendency is for a
| lower range of figures; small sales of North
western extra family at $8 50(" 9 p 1 barrel.
! winter wheat do do at $9 500' 10 50. and

at $2 50. Rye is in good request at $1 65.

aud 27 days.
Oh ■ h„w the heart sinks when the Death Angel
sweep-athwart the household and bears away a
darling cliiid, and more especially oor first-ion i
! a d only treasure. But. perhaps, 'tis well.
The little flower is onty plucked by that unseen
; band that "doe'h ail thing- well," to be added to
the rich boquet made up of Heaven * choice exot
ics. sfce i- gone; her prattling tongue is at ill:
her voice is hushed, and in the sadness of oar
hearts, we can only sigh in the language of the
poet.
"Death lies on her like an untimely frost, upon
the sweetest flower of all the field." 11.
September 13tb, CHARLES M. LYNCH, aged

li'ib, Sl'E LYNCH, aged 4 vears. children of
THOMAS and MARG ARET LYNCH.
Truly mysterious and sad are these prov
idences of God. The unseen band has again
glided in and removed beautiful flowers from
the family circle. Their little bodies test
| side by side with those dear ones that have
, gone before —but their spirits have entered the
wot Id of bliss. '"What I do thou knowest
not now, but thou shall know hereafter."
On Oct 13, MA CD SCIIAFFER, daughter
.of WILLIAM and MARGARET BOHAFFER .
agd 15 years, t mouth and 7 days.
The silver cord was at last snapped assun
der and the golden bowl broken. A lovely
daughter just entering the bloom of woman
hood, fell a victim to the relentless foe,
consumption. She patiently awaited her endj
and it came not unexpected to her, nor she
unprepared for it. Sad U) our mourning
be.-trts to be called to part from her, yet her
parting words should cheer and comfort us,
aui turn our roourniug into joy. "'Yea tho'
I walk ihrough the dark valley of the shadow
of death. 1 will fear no evil; for thou art with
me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."
"How Chilly >he Evenings in October!"'
Tiii- is a common remark, yet how few think of
the danger of expo-leg themselves to their influ
ence? In ail low. marshy localities Ague and
Fever prevail at this season of the year. lathis
defease there is invariably more or less derange
ment of the liver and dige-tive organs. The
remedies usually re-oried to have reference to
preventing the paroxysm or breaking up the
chilis. II this is ejected without removing tho
cause, a relsp-o is inevitable. HOSTETTEP-'S
STOMACH BITTEH9 strike diiectty at the foun
dation of the evil, by acting on the liver and cor
recting digestion. The cause being removed, the
paroxysm will cease, ana the chills ear nut retnrn.
When the patient is weak and debilitated, the
BITTERS should be resorted to, as tbev will
strengthen and tone the stomach, allay all nervous
irritation, and infuse renewed animation into the
hitherto drooping spirits, without entailing the
danger of reaction.
nOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS is truly
a preventive medicine, rendering even the feeblest
frame impervious to all malarious influences: and.
as a stomachic and anti-billion* medicine it is
incomparable, and no onewho values bis heubhean
afford to do without it. Fortify the system wi,h
this inestimable tonic and invigorant, and the
"Chills of October Evenings will havo no terror
for yon.

QUR NEW FAMILY
SINGER SEWING MACHINE.
The superior merits of the "Singer" Machines
over all others, for either family use or manu
facturing purposes, are so well established and
generally admitted, that an enumeration of their
relatire excellence is no longv considered nee
essary.
OCR NEW FAMILY MACHINE,
which has been brought to perfection regardless
of time, labor or expense, is now confidently pre
sented to the public as incomparably
THE BEST SEWING MACHINE IN EX
ISTENCE.
The machine in question is
SIMPLE, COMPACT, DURABLE A BEAU
TIFUL
It is quiet, light running, an-1 capable of per
forming a range and variety of work never be
fore attempted upon a single machine, -utxng
either silk, twist, linen or eotlen thread, and sew
ing with'equal facility the very finest andcoarsest
materials, and anything between the two extremes,
in tbe a it beautiful and substantial manner. Its
attachments for Hemming, Braiding, Cording,
Tucking, Quilting, Felling, Trimming, Binding,
etc , are novel and practical, and have been in
vented and adjusted especially for this machine.
New designs of the unique, useful and popular
folding tops and cabinet cases, peculiar to the
mach.nes manufactured by this Company, hare
been prepared for enclosing the new Machine.
A faint idea however, ean at best be given
through the medium of a (necessarily) limited ad
vertisement; and we therefore urge every person
in quest of a Sewing Machine by all means to ex
amine and test, if tbev can p<>--:.iiy do so, all the
leading rival machiaes before making a purchase.
A selection can then be made undcretaudingiy.
Branches or agencies for supplying the "Singer''
Machines will be found in nearly every ei;y and
town throughout the civiliicJ world, where
machines will be cheerfully exhibited, and any
information promptly furnished. Or communi
cations may be addressed to
