FIRE IN ALTOONA. —On Thnrsday night of last week a destructive fire broke out iu Altoona, Blair County. Seventeen dwelling houses wilh a number of stables and other buildings were consumed. The loss is es timated at $40,000.00. The fire is supposed to have been the work of incendiaries. AN exchange says that "some of the Democratic tax collectors in Schuylkill county are heavy defaulters and are skedaddling." N.thing strange in that! It is one ot the great fundamental Constitutional principles of Democracy. A very popular loyal Demo cratic lawyer skedaddled from this county a few years ago with a large amount of soldier's bounty and pension money in his pockets. CAN it be possible that over Five Million Bottles of PLANTATION BITTERS have been sold during the past year ? It is almost in credible, nevertheless it is absolutely true, and is the most convincing proof of their wonderful medicinal and health- restoring qualities. Every family should be supplied with these Bitters, at whatever cost or trou ble it may be to obtain them. Be careful that you get the genuine, aud that you are net im posed upon by a spurious article. THE improvements on Juliana street are under full head way now. The fine weather the last of last week, and the first of this week started the folks along the whole line to fixing up : hut for the intervention of rain on Tuesday, the pavements on the west side would be complete. The Mengle House is being remodeled inside and out: two large circle-head frames with receiving doors have been put in, in front, during the week. The house is to have, a new coat of paint and when finished will more than look cityish. AN INVALUABLE PREPARATION.—The atten tion of onr readers is directed to the ad vertisement of Dr. L. Q. C. Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cordial, for the cure of Con sumption of the Lungs, etc. This invaluable preparation has met with such an increased demand during the past few years, that the proprietor has found it necessary to increase the facilities for manufacturing, and has now one of the largest Laboratories in Philadelphia and has recently removed his sales-rooms to the large and commodious store. No. 232 North Second Street, Philadelphia. Some of the largest Patent Medicine dealers in the United States say the demand for H'ishart's l'ine Tree Tar Cordial is greater at the present time than any other Patent Medicine in this country. Ntxt week being court week many of our friends will be in town and we hope they will not forget the printer. To our many kind friends and patrons who have called upon us during several months past and settled little bills and spoken words of en couragement and approval of our effort to furnish them with a good county paper, we are heartily thankful. To those who are still in arrears we do not wish to he impor tunate, but our necessarily heavy outlay during the past year compels us to ask as many as can conveniently do so, to call and settle any old accounts that may be due us as we have need of money to pay our honest debts. If each one when he comes to Bed ford would bring us a new subscriber with the cash in advance, he would benefit the Republican party and receive the heartfelt thanks of the editor. STRING FLOWERS and singing birds come together. The birds can be heard every bright morning and violets, crocuses and hyacinths have made their appearance in our gardens. Perfuming the air with their sweetness, and making bright the earth with th< ir bennty, they well deserve the care twinlly bestowed upon them by our fair :' nus. Speaking of flowers we cannot re train from asking why we have so few ot them in our town; and why they are so often hidden away in back yards or gardens where none but the owners ever see them Bring them forward where they cau be seen aud enjoyed by every passer by. The sight of them will delight the eyes aud rejoice the hearts of many, who have not the means or ■acililies to caltivate them for themselves, and cannot rob you of your enjoyment but rather increase it by the reflection that you are able to afford pleasure to others who are •ass fortunate than youraelf. CORRESPONDENCE. SNAKE SPRING TP., April, 19 69. Mr. Editor. —The subject of the poor house of the County of Bedford, having be I eotue a matter of great, interest to the people of this county within | the last few years, 1 take the liberty of giving • my views to the people of this county in regard to it. In the first place, the dis graceful and unprofitable ninnner in which it has been conducted, has won for it, the disapprobation of nine tenths of the people of this county, outside of the borough of Bedford. The report o< W. M. Hall Esq., in his investigation into the proceeds nfthe poor house mill, showed that it did not ex ceed thirty-five dollars a year over ex penses. To think that a mill with a good water power, and so favorably located for custom, has not produced more than thirtv ?ive dollars a year, is a matter that should the suspicion of every tax payer of litis county, in regard to the honesty with ••vhich it ha- been conducted. In view of ~h;s desperate state of things, the Poor directors made a report to the court, recom mending that the present poor house property be sold, and a farm purchased, which report, was laid before the grand j jury and approved by them. The grand ijury have disapproved of the building on the present property at different times, and never to my knowledge consented to build on it. But iu view of all this, the parti - that have been running this machine, have disregarded the report of the Poor directors, the grand jury, the people, and every prin ciple of justice and right. They have gone on iu their own way, and have paid seventy seven dollars for advertising for proposal? for the new house, and paid seven hundred dollars for a plan and specifications of the new house, where any of our best mechanic? could have given a plan anJ specifications for ten dollar*; and the mechanics that would have done the work would have un derstood it better, and would have saved six hundred and ninety dollars in that cue item. Then they contract for the buil ding of the new house at acost of over thirty thousand dollars, and the county to furni-b the brick, at what cost T do not know, but it is suppose 1, -that the whole i t of the house would not be less than forty-five thousand dollars. Now then could be a house built, that would be fuffi cicntly large to hold over one hundred pau pers, and with all the necessary arrange meuts for every grade and condition of them, for fifteen thousand dollars, which would save the couoty about thirty thousand dul lars, and have a good and substantial bull ding of brick. Now when this property ins been so unprofitable, why not purchase a farm, out in the country, away from the turnpike,and not he gathering up all the lazy stragglers that pass the road. There are quite a number of farm? for sale in the county. There is a farm in Snake Spring township, known as the Snyder farm, con taining one hundred and seventy acres, lime stone laud, with water and all the natural advantages, that could bo obtained any where. It is believed that all ibe bread, meat and vegetables, that would be consu med hv the paupers, could be raised on tiii.- farm one year with another. There are no buildings on it, which is an advantage, as there would be no buildings to pay for that would not answer the purpose; this farm can be purclia-id for about ten thousand dollars, and the cost of Tiuilding a house would be about thirteen thousand dollars, and a tarn about three thousand dollars; and one ill )uand dollars for other out buildings. Now the whole thing, farm, buildings, and all, would not oust over thirty thousand dollars. Now if all the necessary buildings would not cost over twenty thousand dollars what is the use of putting twenty or twenty five thousand dollars of the people's money, into a building in the shape of fashion and ornament d work, that would te of no real valui to any bo ly. Would it not be better to put that money into real estate or at interest, that the institution might be come self supporting? For as long as the institution is supported by taxation, so long will it he governed by fraud and corruption, to a greater or le-s extent. Then if the pre-ent property could not he sold to advan tage, it could be rented for five years, for nearly twelve hundred dollars a year, and be kept in repair, and that, would produce some of the cash, that would be required for the support of the paupers. GEORGF. BLACK BERN, AURORA BUREAUS. —The finest display of Aurora Borealis that it has ever been onr good fortune to witness occurred on Thursday eveni ig of last week. Early in the evening an unusual light was seen in the Northern sky but it was not until about half past nine o'clock thai the grand display began. From that time until eleven o'clock the whole Nor thern half of the sky was the scene of the most magnificent celestial phenomena. The points of greatest brilliancy were ia the North Fist and North West, whence rays of light varying from bright white tc lurid red were continually emanating shooting up to ihe zenith and quickly disappearing only to be repeated again and again. The most singular feature cf the display occurred about a quarter past ten o'clock, when rays of red and white light suddenly shooting up to the zenith and separating entirely from the lower light formed a nucleus immediately overhead from which rays of light extended in every direction, while sheets of pale white light, appearing like tain white clouds, quivered and flashed back and forth contin ually. This extraordinary phenomenon con tinued lor several minutes, when quick as thought it parted, as though the heavens themselves were opening, and the whole *ky was filled with Hashes of red and white light, fhe sudden, singular and startling breaking up of this nucleus caused a general dodging and shrinking ou the part ol the astonished observers, but finding the sky was not yet falling, they soon regained their confidence and continued their observations. This sin gular phenomenon of the formation of a nu cleus in mid-heaven front which rays and Hashes of electric light emanated in every direction as from a battery, was an enlirely new feature in Aurora Borealis of which we have never before evea heard. It was repea ted several times, but each successive one was less vivid than the preceding until they entirely died away and the aurora grad ually disappeared. The first and most brill vint seemed to mark the culminating point of this most brilliant display of nature's fire works. Below- we give the newspaper reports j from various parts of the country where the i display was witnessed. RICHMOND, April 15.— T0 night at 8 o'clock a belt of light, about six feet wide, appeared across the sky from east tc west. It drifted north, crossing, and to some extent, obscur ing the moon, and then gathered as a fan closes, and disappeared. The aurora borealis is now visablc in the northern horizon. 'Die population has generally turned out to w it- i ne-s the phenomena. IXDIASACOLII, April 15. —The aurora i borealis was seen here about BP. M. It ap peared as though light clouds were blown by i the winds, while to the south a beautiful Imw \ was formed. About 9 P. M. the sky again lighted up, first at the north and then at the 1 west, and then veered aroaud to the east, darting out boge sheets of light, which cbao ' ged to a reddish color, and then faded away. The display lasted about half an hour. PITTSBURG, April 15. —The telegraph wire.? iat (his point were seriously affected this | evening by the aurora current, although ibe ; aurora borealis was not risible in the heavens, j being probably hidden by smoke. LOUISVILLE, April 15.—Between the hours j of 7. 30 and 10 P. XI.. northern lights were j slightly visible hare, but their effects on the I telegraph wires were very perceptible, and j all communication was at limes interrupted. NEW YORK, April 15. —The most briiliant auroral display for years took place ibis evening. The auroral current affected the wires oast and west, almost suspending operation-. For a time the current was very heavy, and the wires to Boston were worked I with the auroral current alone. BALTIMORE, April 15.—The entire northern j hemisphere from east to west, to ihe zenith, | was brilliantly illuminated by an unusual dis : play of the aurora to-night. For several hours fla-hes of pale light have been con tinuous. At this hour, II P. M. the light has almost entirely disappeared. Books and Periodicals.

A single spark may kindle a Itaine that will eon sume a city, and small ailments neglected, niiiy end in fatal disorders. Rearing this fact in mind, let the fir.-i symptom- <.f debility or nervous pros tration be met promptly with invigorating treat ment.

Some time- it happens that ibe appetite dcoiands more food than the stomach can digeet; though not more, perhaps, than is required to keep up Ihe full strength of the frame. The object, under eueii cin emstances, is to increase the digestive capaci ty of the assimilating organ, so ns to make it equal to the duty imposed upon it by the appetite, and capable of supplying the bniUti uj material of the*y*lcm as fast as it is required. This ohject is fully accomplished by the urc of the Bitters. They tone and gently stimulate the cellular membrane which secretes the ga-tric juice, and the result is that the solvent is mingled with the food in suffi eien' quantity t > cmive-t all its nourishing parti cles into pure and wholesome element. If, on the other hand, there is a deficiency of appetite, with out any correspondent deficiency of digestive puw cr. the effect of the tonic is to stimulate a desire of food. In nineteen esses out of twenty, head ache. nausea, nervousness, fainting-fits, spasms, and, ind ed, most of the casual aches and pains ' to which humanity is subject, proceed primarily from indigestion complicated with biiiousucss: and for both these complaints lIOSTETTER'S STOMACH HITTERS are recommended as a speedy and certain remedy.
