SAD ACCIDENT. —Near Schellsbnre one day last week a son of Mr. Uriah Conley aged ten or twelve years, while on his way to chool in descending a hill which wa -■-ivered with ice and frozen snow, lost hi t-ting and in his exertions to keep from falling gave his body such an impetus, that he was unable to guide himself and unfortu nately struck his head against a -spline fr m the effects of which ho died in a few days.

PROGRESS OF OCR IMPROVEMENTS —Th> new Roman catholic church is progressing finely notwithstanding the inclemency of the season and bids fair to be ready for use in early Summer. The INQUIRER building has been under roof for some time aud the plas tering and inside fini-hing is being pushed forward rapidly. We hope to have i' finished and ready for occupation about the first of April. A number of new building will be begun as soou as the Spring opens. Altogether Bedford seems to have at la-t waked up aud to be about entering upon a new era of progress. , MANY rears ago the writer of this notice and an invalid physician, while visiting the nd of St. Croix for their health, expe rienced and witnessed many surprising and 1 eneficial effects of the Rom there produce') upon many of the invalids who were, like ourselves, seekiug health, and opor. inquiry a: 1 investigation obtained a full histiry of its medicinal virtues. He was delighted and 4 :rpri9ed, and determined to make it the basis of a Tonic and Restorative Medicine. i he result of his labors was a glorious success for himself and suffering humanity. Tbe celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS was thus made known to tbe world. Being an article of real merit, founded on new principles, and re'v ng wholly upon the vegetable kingdom tor its medicinal effects, it worked a rapid revolution in tbe treatment of physical de bility. To ova I'ATROXS. —We have a large amount of money charged upon our books, but we find the money in our pocket very scarce. Our friends have always responded liberally to our call and we trust that they will do so again. We have been building during the past season, and our carpenters, masons, lumbermen, painters, in short every one wt employ wants money. In fact money is the very thing we want ourselves. Now ail we ask is that every one who owes us. h,>wevet small the sum, will promptly pay us. Every dol'ar we get will pay two dollars of debt- We only waut those who owe us to pay, in order that we may pay our debts: and we are quite sure that all this class will cheerfully aid us in so laudable an enterprise. Every one can tell tbe exact amount he owes us tot subscriptions by examining tbe label that he finds each week on his paper. Geo. Giles Apl. 168 indicates that Mr. Giles has not paid in advance tor his paper but has been going it on tick. Now if he knows how to save money he will hurry up and pay us $2.50 before Api. 1. 69 for alter that lime it will be $3.00: if he had paid for it nine months age it would have only been $2.00 and he would have saved oOcts. In the same way each one can determine how much he owes, always re membering that it is economy to pay in ad vance. All who owe us for advertising if they have not received bills, can ascertain the amount by calling at our office, where we will at all times be pleased to see them, and to receive and receipt for all the little bills due Come along quick. Wc- want money badly or we would not ask for it. t. f. ANOTHER RAIL ROAI> WANTED! — A Cheap Rovte and a Good Owe .'—The Cumberland Civilian and Telegraph, in discussing the advantages of tbe various projected railroad routes to lead to and from the Cumberland coal region to tide vvater and the Eastern markets, after, re ferring to the Western Maryland Railroad Co. which is now in a state of suspended animation, and the Alexandria, London and Hampshire Railroad, which would lead the coal traffic away from Cumletland, thus speaks of the route by this place: "But there is another route which can be made still superior to this short line to the sea— a route which offers advantages that none other can offer. We mean the route via. Bedford, Huntingdon, Harrisburg, and so on. direct to New York city. By tbe con struction of barely thirty miles of road, over easy grades, we can establish a complete line of railroad communication with New York, as follows: From Cumberland to Bedford, 30 miles, there to connect with the Huntingdon and Broad Top road : from Huntingdon to Harrisburg, thence over the Lebanon Valley railroad to Allentown; thence by Easton and New Hampton to New York, over the New Jersey Central railroad. This route is known as 'the great middle route between New York aud tbe West,' and trains run over it daily without change of cars. The distances from Cum ber'and to New York by this route are a follows: Cumberland to Bedford 30 miles. Bedford to Huntingdon 49 " Huntingdon to HairLbuig US " Harrisburg to Ri-adinir 54 " Beading to New York 128 " Total distance 359 " The probable cost of constructing the thirty miles of railroad between this city and Bedford, necessary to complete the line the tfutire distance from Now Y'ork to our coal fields would be $1,000,000, that being the avarage cost of railroads built in country of similar nature. This sum is an insignificant one, in view of the tradt which it would secure. It would not only open an all rail route for our coal to New York, but would enable the people of this entire section of country to make use of hard coal for fuel at rca.-onable rates. It has long been a source of grievance to our coal dealers that by the time our soft coal has been handled two or three times in its transfer fruui cars to vessels, &c., it becomes 0 pulverized as to involve serious l.os. L t;i in quantity and quality. By the present method coal is dumped at the mines into hoppers, carried to Bal timore, there dumped into vessels, taken thence to New York, there shoveled and lifted on the wharf, and then carted away. If the shipment is by canal it receives one more handling at Cumberland, when placed in boats. This repeated handling of the article increases its cost and depreciates its vaiue—which is quite a serious matter. If this connecting link should be built, and the all rail route to New York aud Philadelphia adopted, the coal would re main undisturbed in the car from the time it left the mine until delivered to the con signee. The re-uit would be a great -a vine, by avoiding frequent handling, and an increased value of at least #1 per ton in the qualify of the coal. These facts are so apparent that we wonder that this matter has not long since been decided by a practical test. In addition to this, Bedford county is rich in productions which would make easy communication with this section a iuattei of mutual benefit, and her people art anxious to have a road. The line being short and cheap, and there being acer tainty that it would be from the start a paying road, we trust we may find tho-e interested waking up to the matter." A C.A-11 Brsisiss. —We call the special intention of our readers to the advertisement of J. B. Williams of Bloody Hun in another column. Mr. Williams is one of the most ,-nergetic and enterprising business men in our county and well deserves the success with which his business tfforts have been ■rowned. He proposes to adopt a stritt cash system on the first of April next. We •re glad to see this movement on the part of Mr. Williams and would be pleased toseeii followed by the business community gener dly. It would largely promote the welfan tnd prosperity of both buyer and seller. He who sells for cash can always soli cheaper for he has no bad debts to be made up "ff hi paying customers. It has always seemed t<> is that the buying community have never viewed ibis subject in its true light. Every merchant or retailer who does a credit busi ness loses from ten to twenty per cent on all that he charges. His profits on what h -(lis to good paying customers, must he in •rt-ased sufficiently to cover his losses hy bad debts. In this way the man who buys on credit and intends to pay, is made to pay hi- share of the debts of his less honest or les able neighbor. The man who sells for cash has no los-es of this kind with which to 'ax his customers and can always sell just so much cheaper. In addition to this he ba the money and buys his goods for ca.-h and gets them cheaper thereby and this again enables him to sell at lower rates, This i the pure business, dollars and cents view of the question, leaving out of the account the bankruptcies, duns, law-uits, ill feeling and n thousand minor troubles arising from an indiscriminate credit businesf. It is never oosoon to begin a good work, and we hope many will see the adTautage of and enter upon this c-a h system. STICK TO TOUR BUSH. —We remember well our earliest lesson when we first ven tured to the mountains huckleberrying. It ■ame from an old expert at the business and was brief and laconic—"stick to your bush." When you find berries reasonably plenty don't run around looking for a better place but "'stick to your bush." We have often since thought, many people and particularly voung men would do well to heed that homely h -son. The sea.-ou of the year has come around again when our voung men are attacked with the periodical fever of going w< -f and hundn ds. dtsaf-s>d with a ea-onabb: degree of prosperity, arc looking • est for a fader bush. Stick to your bush , uung (Han and when evening comes, patient adust y a i.l have enabled you to far out trip the great majority of those who have sfient the noonday of th ir lives looking, but in vain, for the full places. Patience, in dustry and intelligence will bring their sure reward in due time, here a well as further west and without them success can be at tained nowhere. The home of your child hood, the land of your fathers, has plenty tor you to do, and will well repay your toil. "'Stick to your bush." As there has been considerable inquiry as to the time of our delegate elections for the present year, and some hare even gone so far as to urge holding them at the time of the Spring elections it may be well enough to state, that the last county Convention, at the same time thjjt the Crawford County Sys-tem was adopted, fixed the first Saturdav of June of each year for the holding of the delegate elections. Thus it will be seen that the time is fixed and that the County Committee have no power to change it. DID TOC EVER THINK ?—The Montour American pertinently gays. Every towu possessed of a newspaper, owes more to that paper, than it does to any thing else, for its advancement and its prosperity. The brains and capital of its citizens are well enough; but to the brams and labor of the editor they are indebted for acquainting the outside world with the advantages of the place, for settle ment and for business. Your local news paper is the power that not only attracts wealib, labor, and enterprise to your place, but it u the power that moves the car of pro gress, and invites the sun of prosperity to shine upon those around it. There is no in fluence so potent as your local newspaper, in building up a town: whilst it is a notorious fact that those who enjoy the benefits, are usually the very last to acknowledge ib power of "Printers' Ink." Just as the rider forgets the stepping-block by which he moun ted, so does the prosperous man forget the newspaper by which he rose to independence. Others affect to sneer at the influence of the paper, and would not advertise; not they. But they take good care to squat beside a business house that does advertise, iu order to share the advantages of the custom brought to the locality by their neighbors. What would the business of such mortals amount, to it their neighbors did not adveiike ? And what would the towu be if it had no newspa pers ? Nothing, absolutely nothing. It would be avoided as a plague-spot by every intelli gent worker, and every mau of capital aud enterprise. Have you ever thought of these things And are you aware that every town is judged by its newspapers aud the evidences ! of life and prosperity, are sought for in its ad- ; ierti. iag Columns ? if you have not, think of I it now. Do not meanly depend on being car- i ried along on the current of trade, at tbe ex- i ponse of others. Do uot pitifully conclude to j hang to the skirts of your more enterprising; neighbors, and clutch a part of the cuatom he brings wuhiu your reach. Do uot steal the reading of a paper. You might as well steal a sheep. Resolve from this day, you will act ■he man and contribute your share iu sustain ing that which is a common benefit. LIST OF MEMBERS OF CO. F. BTH REOT. PA.

IN A TRANCE.—For *ome weeks prior to Jany. 22 a revival had been in progress in the village of Rains-burg at which among others a Miss Barbara Hart sock professed conversion. On Friday evening Jany. 22, while at a prayer meeting in Rain? burg she became much excited and while shouting fell in a trance and was insensible and lay as if asleep, breathing naturally bat uncon scious, frotn that time until the morning of the 2!>th, a period of 157 bonrs, during which time she took no nourishment what ever. On reviving she began tdiouiiug the i -ame as at the time she fell in the tranoe, but soon became quiet arid collected as usual. At tli-a latest accounts sbe was in her uua] health and showed no signs of any evil effects from this singular suspen -ion of the mental and physical lunations, except the weakness necessarily attendant upon so long a last. TUB BOOK BCMXBSS. —But few persons have any proper comprehension of how vast is the book business in this country. Take one "item." fur instance, as illustrative: Matthew Hale Smith's "Sunshine and Shadow in New York." which is the exciting work of the day. has already reached the enormous sale of 25,000 copies within thirty days. The publishers (J. B. Burr A Co., of Hartford, Conn), use two tons of paper a day and run six large roller presses con-tamly tc supply the current demand. This is doing a whole sale business with one book alone. This is a large work too, it must be remembered be tween seven and eight hundred pages royal octavo: a id yet it is said to rival in rapidity of sale "Uncle Tom's Cabin" of old.

The drafts which searching cold makes up on the vital powers of the debilitated and del icate are not less severe than the drain upon their strength caused bv excessive heat. The vast disparity between the temperature of over-heated rooms and offices, at this season, and the frigidity of the outer afr, is a fruitful source of sickness. To fortify the body against the evil consequences of the sudden alternations of heat and cold referred to, the vital organization should be strengthened and endowed with extra resistant power by the use of a wholesome invigorant: and of all preparations for this purpose, (whether em braced in the regular pharmacopoeia, or ad vertised in the public journals,) there is none that will compare in purity and excellence with HOSTETTERS STOMACH BIT TERS. Acting directly upon the organ which converts the food into the fuel of life, the preparation imparts to it a tone and vigor which is communicated to every fibre of the frame. The digestive function being aceel erated by its tonic operations, the liver regu lated by its anti-bilious properties, and the waste matter of the system carried off punc tually by its mild aperient action, the whole organization will necessarily be ia the best possible condition to meet the shocks of wia ter and the sudden changes of temperature. The weak and sensitive, especially, cannot encounter these vicissitudes with safety, un less their tender systems Rre strengthened and braced by artificial means. Every liquor sold us a staple of trade is adulterated, and, were it otherwise, mere alcohol is simply a temporary excitant, which, when its firßt effects have subsided. leaves the physical powers (and the mind us well.) in a worse condition than belore. HOSTE ITER'S BIT TERS, on the other hand, contain the es •ential properties of the most valuable tonic and alterative roots, barks and herbs, and their active principal is the mellowest, least exciting, atidj most innocuous of all diffusive stimulants. ofebltn OHITL'AKY. JOHN MCCUNTIXK was born near Harris burg Fa., August 2d 1782. lie lived in Chambersburg about 70 years, and in all the various relations of life showed forth sterling integrity. His christian life was of a high and noble order. It commenced in eariy life, and throughout his entire course, he kept the prize in view. He read his Bible ihrough in consecutive order 28 times; and prayed in his family morning and evening, allowing nothing to interfere with this sacred obligation. He loved the doctrines, discip line and usages of the M. E. Church, and could say with the Psalmist, "One tiling have 1 desired of the Lord: that will 1 seek alter, that 1 may dwell in the House of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord and enquirein his Temple." Trials and afflictions however awaited bitn. His wife, who shared with hiui the joys and sor rows of a long life, was laid iu the silent tomb on the 23d of .luly 18t>4, and on the SOlh his property was destroyed by fire, in the burning of Chambernburg by the rebels. This was the occasion of him making his home with his son in-law. G. Blymyer, in Bedford, where on the 22d ult., he sweetly fell asleep in Jesus in his 87th year. Just befoie he bade farewell, he exclaimed, "Oh Death where is thy sling? Oh grave where is thy victory? Thanks he to God. who giveth us the victory through our Lord desus Christ.' "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from henceforth; Yeasaiih the spirit that they may rest from their labors; and their worse do follow them."
