READ! READ ! READ!—THE IKQIIBER
FOR THE CAMPAIGN.— An important campaign
is before us in which are to be elected a Gov
c-rnor, a Judge of the Supreme court, a State
Senator and two members of the Legislature,
a Sheriff and Prolhonatory beside the regular
county ticket. The best interests of our
State demand a continuation of Republican
rule and if there is ever to be any economy in
the expenditure of the hard earned money of
the lax payers of Bedford county it can only
come through a change from Democratic to
Republican management. That our people
may be iuformed upon these matter? and ena
bled to vote intelligently at the coming elec
tion, we will furnish the INQUIRE* at the fol
lowing rates for the campaign :
One copy 40 cts
Five copies 1 "•-
Ten copies " "0
Twenty copies..... 00
Let the active working men of the party go
to work at once and get up clubs at every
l'ost Office in the county and place the IN
QUIRER in the hands not only of every Repub
lican but of every doubtful voter. It will do
more good than days or weeks of talkiug and
electioneering just before the election. Cop
erheadism aims a death blow at the industrial
interests of our State and must be defeated.
Copperhead mismanagement of the finances
of Bedford county has loaded us with debt
and taxes from which there is no hope of de
liverance except in the election of Republic
an county officers. Now is the time to ac
complish our deliverance. Let no time be
lost. Get up your clubs and send in your
subscriptions at once. Address JOHN LCTZ,
Bedford, Pa.
'Jstal Jptos.
THERE will be regular service in the Lu
theran church on Sabbath morning next at
half past ten o'clock. Visitors and strangers
sojourning with us are cordially invited to
attend.
Ox Friday evening, the Republican Silver
Band discoursed some of their music from
the balcony of the Washington House for the
benefit of the lady boarders stopping there.
JACOB GARDENER has erected a smalt frame
building or, the Watson Extension, South Ju
liana street, which when rightly fixed up will
make him a comfortable, cozy home.

COMMUNION Service will be held in the Re
formed Church, of this place, on Sunday
next—service preparatory on Saturday pre
vious—commencing at half-past ten o'clock,
A. M. The Rev. Dr. Apple, of Mercersburg
College, will preach on both occasions.
ON Thursday evening the negroes of Bed
ford and those at the Springs had a torch
light procession at both places. Appropriate
speeches were made by men from their own
number, and good orderly conduct and quiet
prevailed during tbe evening, which was very
creditable indeed.
THE masquerade ball at the Springs the
other evening was quite a success. The
beauty and fashion of the various cities are
well represented, and whilst we would de
tract nothing from each one's share, we think
Bedford and those whom we claim as B< d
fordians will compare with any others.
WE have been advertising the Alisma for
the hair for some time, and our druggists say
that it is selling remarkably well, and what is
better, gives universal satisfaction —better far
than any other Hair Renewer in use.

and every thing else calculated to satisfy the
appetite always on hand. Come and see.

MORE UOKSE THIEVES. TWO fellows who
gave the rmrr.es of Mcßride and Hoover
were arrested here on the 27th, on charge of
horse stealing. It appears that they had ta- j
ken a horse, buggy and harness from a barn
at Meyer's mills and came on to Bedford.
They had driven out to the Springs and were '
wending their way toward Cumberland, when
the authorities here were informed of the
theft, and suspicion resting on the abeve
characters, J no. A. Cessna was senlafter them
to purchase the whole rig, which ruse suc
ceeded admirably and led to their arrest.
They were shipped to Somerset county jail.
ANOTHER. —A young man, Zeigler Karns,
was brought to town and lodged in jail on
Sunday last by G. Beegle and David Irnler.
It is alleged that he stole a horse from D.
Imler. He was arrested in Cambria county
with the horse in his possession. The boy,
for such he is, denies the charge, and wept
bitterly when he was taken to jai'.
CRIME appears to be gaining headway with
a fearful rapidity. It must be checked or the
whole country will go to rnin. Murder and
tbelt have become an every day occurrence.
The people have become so used to it, that
nothing but a crime ot the most shocking ua
ture, will create a sensation. Every paper
we pick up teems with recitals of the darkest
crimes and it is astonishing, the number of
rascals who go unpunished. It is a fearful
fact, that these murderers, thieves and ras
cal 9 are bound together by the strongest ties,
and leagued with the Devil to thwart the law
and justice. They exert a mighty influence
over the whole nation. They figure conspic
uously in all grades and shades of society.
Tbey have their influence and their represen
tatives in every community. They have
money : and with money, they have all, for
character, honesty and virtue sink in their
track? at the approach of this King. They
are strong enough to defend themselves, in
almost any situation. They have no horror
or dread for the prison or even the gallows,
for it is an easy matter for them to decamp
at will, and no matter how gTave the offense,
if a convict escapes his just deserts, there are
always those on hand (of influence, aristoc
racy and money) to eulogize his craft, cun
ning, and chivalry. Indeed public opinion
or condemnation of such atrocities is so mod
ified, that the young ambitions scoundrel
seeks honor, renown, and notoriety in the
field of vice, feeling that, though the laws of
the land and the true citizen are against him.
yet there is a strong under current of appro
bation for every daring feat, or cunning de
vice, and that this current shields him from
punishment and makes law a mockery.
Every man should have a fair trial, but if he
is convicted he should suffer the full penalty
of the law, for at this day, it is a notorious
fact, that Executive clemency to criminals is
a direct aid to crime.
BIOBMSSBVBO MJ.II. ARRAXUKMSKTS. —The
management of the mails from this point to
Riddlesburg is just the worst posssibie. In
fart if we had not been positively informed
by the post master himself we conld scarcely
have believed it so bad as it is. A letter sent
by mail at eleven o'clock of one day from Bed
ford to Riddlesburg is, by the present arrange
ment sent to Huntingdon, (passing within
twenty feet of the Riddlesburg office) and
does not reach Riddlesburg until the next
day at the earTiest arid sometimes not for two
or three days. Snch things as this should not
be. Why cannot the mail be left, as the train
goes down, on the same day it leaves Bed
ford ? Will not oar postmasters or the rail
read officials see that a change is made ? The
new furnace at Riddlesburg employs a con
siderable force of bands who should be af
forded as good facilities as their neighbors
tor communicating with the county seat and
net have their mail matter sent to Hunting
don to be there two or three days before they
get it. Some one is responsible. Let him
wake up and remedy this evil at once and he
will receive the thanks cf the business men
of Bedford and the people of Riddlesburg for
simply doing his duty.

THE LATEST AGOXT.— One day last week
our attention was directed to a few woe-be
gone looking Packer-iles, who were being
transported through the principal streets of
our town, in an old dilapidated cart, attached
to an old, played ont ox, (a successful candi
date for the bone-yard) and driven or led by
one of the blackest sons of—"Ham" we have
ever seen. Surely the last change of the
Moon wrought wonderful effects in the minds
and tastes of a Democratic lawyer, a doctor
and a Philadelphia salesman. So much so
that, disregarding the protestations of the ne
gro, who plead that his ox had already been
driven a long distance, and notwithstanding
the excessive warmth of the weather, and the
surplus animal heat in the scat of the cart,
which had .just been vacated by Sambo's ole
woman, a shining, buxom, ebouistic dame
who'd weigh bout six handr'd pound, this
nigger-hating, Packer trio mounted the cart
at the express office on Juliana street, and
completed their trip on Pitt street, opposite
an alley, to and through which they cut a bee
line for the back doors of their respective
offices, where an application of soap and hard
water lulled the tremors of the system, caused
by the sudden realization of their humiliation.
It is needless to say that the darkey received
no dimes for his team, "Money makes the
mare go," but a blind ox beset with snakes
hath a hard road to travel.
CAN'T AFFORD IT. —The Erie lleimblican
has seen the man who couldn't afford to take
a paper. It gives his history as follows. He
has his connterpart in this vacinity.
There are men who don't take a paper be
cause they "can't aObrd it', —they are too
poor—they reqnire all their money to keep
up their family expenses "these bard times."
We met one of them the other day, and we
said to him he ought to havs the Republican.
"Well, really," said he, "1 would if I could
afford it. Would like to oblige yon, but
things are so very tight just now that it is
hard to make both ends meet." We did not
press the matter upon our hard up friend,
but knowing his habits we made the following
calculation, based on that knowledge. Two
glasses of ale a day at ten cents: seventy
three dollars; three cigars, one after each
meal, one hundred and uine dollars and fifty
centy : board for a big dog, thirty dollars—all
in one year, two hundred and twelve dollars
and fifty cents—sufficient to buy i.w barrels
of floor, one barrel of sugar, one sack of
coffee, a good coat, a respectable dress, a
trock for his baby and a half a dozen pair of
shoes and all the daily papers in the city, to
say nothing about magazines, books, Ac.
lousee the point—the man couldn't afford
it, and there are thousands just like him for
the same reason.

THE GHOSTS. — Wonderful stories are
afloat concerning ghosts tbat are seen in an
old dilapidated bcildiug in St. Clair township.
Crowds of people assemble there daily to
witness the phenomenon. A number of
visitors attending the Springs, have gone out
to see, and curious as it may seem, testify to
the reports current, "tbat buman forms are
seen at all hours of the day, and though they do
not talk, they assume menacing attitudes, and
gesticulate with a stick or cane." A strange
feature of the affair is, that these aparitions
are only seen in day time and that all persons
cannot see them ; of this class, are persons
of blue eyes. The house is inhabited by an
old ladv and her daughter, who though terri
bly affrighted at the spectres, have not de
camped. We will not attempt to explain the
cause of this phenomenon, for we have not
seen it, and though our eyes are black, we
think we would be classed with the blue,
tor our faith in ghosts is ghostisb-
THE Alioona Incendiaries were tried last
week : Indictments were found on Monday,
and on Tuesday Thos. A. Beats, John B.
Campbell, and James McConnell were ar
raigned. The two latter pleaded guilty, and
the former not guilty to firiug the lumber
yard of I). & C. Moore, on the night of June
t. The District Attorney, Mr. John Dean,
under these circumstances, asked the Court
to order a nolle prosequi in the case of Camp
hell and McConnell, to enable him to nee
them as witnesses. The request was graut
< d, and the result was the conviction of Beale,
the trial occupying two days. Tuesday and
Wednesday.
Ou Thursday Thomas A. Bealii and Thom
as Duke were put on trial. In this case the
evidence was entirely circumstantial but very
strong. The case was given to the jury on
Friday afternoon. They remained out all
night and until nine A. M., cn Saturday,
when ihey returned a verdict of guilty.
PEDAGOGICAL. —The Normal school opened
this week very auspiciously. There were
over sixty students present on Monday, and
quite a number have come in since. The
Superintendent it making every effort to
make this session as good if not snperior to
any one, in the past. These exertions on his
behalf ar.d the favorable response of this large
class of young ladies and gentlemen, repre
seutativesof the school interest in our county,
speak well for the progress of the educational
cause. Our educational standard in this
county is growiug higher each successive
year. We can now compare creditably with
any other county in the State, and we hope
before long to be able to prove to the world,
that though hemmed in by mountains on all
ridoe and deprived of railroads and canals,
Minerva lias scattered her seed uu rich soil,
and that heavy crops have been garnered.
WHO WAKYB A SOWING MACHINE? —We
have a new $65,00 Grover and Baker sewing
machine which we will dispose of on easy
terms to any one who wants a good machine:
and who docs not want a good sewing ma
chine ?
Ai.so a new Singer Sewing Machine for
sale as cheap as can be sold in the com
munity and oo the best of terms.
Alio a Seventy five do'iar Machine of the
American Buttonhole and Overseaming
Sewing machine Company's Manufacture on
the most favorable terms.
Either of the two last named machines can be
seen in operation in town, where they have
given the most complete satisfaction. Fur
ther particulars can be had by calling at, or
writing to, the INQUIRER Office Bedford Pa.
AN ACMCUI.TCRAI. FAIR will be held in Bed
ford on or about the first of October next.
We are authorized in the absence of the
President of the Agricultural Society to an
nounce that a preliminary meeting for ar
rangements will be held at the Court House
on Tuesday eveuing next at 8 o'clock. All
parties interested are urged to attend. A
time will then be fixed for a regular meeting
of the Bedford county Agricultural Society.
It was the intention on the re-organization of
the Society two years ago to have annua!
fairs thereafter, but for some teason, un
known except to the officers, no fair was held
last year. The present season has thus far
been a most favorable one for all agricultural
productions and we can make the fair a grand
success.
BROKE JAIL. —On Saturday afternoon last,
three prisoners ieL our county jail managed
to effect their escape. One of them Robert
H. Foster had recently escaped from tbe
Bedford jail, where he had been incarcerated
on a charge of cattle stealing. He was the
leader in this movement, and although heavi
ly ironed succeeded in climbing to the roof of
tbe iail by means of a blanket, nt'cclir.J in
the window of the wash room, and thence to
the wall surrounding the yard, from which
they got into an out house in tbe Academy
grounds,, and then to the sidewalk. Foster
has had a great deal of experience in this line
and boasts that he has already broken eight
jails before. Oue of the parties Las been
caugbt.— Cumberland Civilian July 28.
THE ECI.IPSE.— Look out for the eclipse on
Saturday evening. It begins at 5 o'clock and
ends at 7. llave your smoked glasses in
readiness and a good point of observation ee- I
lected. About live sixths of the sun's disc
will be hidden at the moment of greatest ob
scuration here. At Beaufort North Carolina
the eclipse will be total and will pass in a
North Westerly direction across the conti
nent of North America and the Pacific ocean
into Asia. It will be visible around about one
quarter of the Earth. A total eclipse of the
Sun is very ware at any particular spot on the
Earth's surface. At London there bss been
but one total eclipse in the past 025 years,
and they are as rare in other places.
CSMP MEETISO.— 'The Methodist of Schells
bnrg charge will hold their Camp Meeting
near Hull and Deaner's Mill in the same
grove where it was held last year, to com !
mence August I3th 1869. Camp arrange
ments are made for boarding and horse feed
on and near the ground. Persons wishing
to Lfave tents put op will pleas address either
of the Pastors at Schellsburg. The Ministers
and members of all adjoining charges and
sister churches are cordially invited to tent
with us in our Feast oi Tabernacles.

The fame of the celebrated PLANTATION
BITTERS bas no paralled in the history of
Medicine. The thousauds upon thousands
of bottles that are made and sold daily is but
proof positive of tbeir wonderful virtueß.
Thousands of Certificates can be produced
showing the efficacy and certainty of the
cures which they effect, and the Medical Fra
ternity, usually so jealous of anything which
causes persons to think and doctor for them
selves, are compelled to acknowledge their
wonderful virtues, and prescribe them-under
other names. They are sold by all druggists.
.STEALING FRClT. —Complaints are already
heard around our town that small fruits from
various lots are stolen by vicious boys. The
stealing of fruit and destruction of trees and
shrubbery is now punishable with fine aud
imprisonment. The best way to manage the
parties engaged in small pilfering will be to
watch Ibem closely and punish every offender
detected, to tbe extent of the law.

The Great Medical .Mistake.
Of former days wag an utter neglect of saui
lary precautions. No efficient means were
adopted for the prevention of sickness.
Sewerage was unknown in cities; drainage
was rarely attempted in the country. Heaps
of oflal were left to rot in the public streets,
aud domestic cleanliness, the great antidote
to febrile diseases, was sadly neglected. It is
not so HOW. Wise law, philanthropic in
stitutions, and a vigilant sanitary police, have,
to a great extent, remedied the evil. Nor is
this all. PREVENTIVE MJUDICATION has helped
materially to lessen the rates of mortality. It
iaot too much to say that TENS OF THOU
SANDS escape sickness in unhealthy seasons
in consequence of having INVIGORATED THEIR
SYSTEMS IN ADVANCE by a course ot HOSTET
TER'S STOMACH BITTERS. This pure
and powerful vegetable tonic and alterative
comprises the extracts aud essences of a
variety of roots and herbs, renowned for their
strengthening, soothing, vitalizing and purify
ing properties. 1 hese medicinal agents are
incorporated with a npirit absolutely free from
the acrid poison which defiles, more or less,
oil the liquors of commerce, and their effect
is diffused through the whole frame by this
active, yet harmless stimulant. The result is
such a condition of the system as renders it
oil but impervious to the exterior causes of
disease, such as damp, fog, sudden alterna
tions of temperature, Ac. Strength, and the
perfect regularity of all the functions of the
body, are the best safe-guards against atmos
pheric poison and the effects of unwholesome
water, and IIOSTETTER'S BITTERS are
the best strengthening and regulating medi
cine at present stiowu. For dyspepsia and
biliousness they are a SPECIFIC ABSOLUTE.
All advertisements, except public sales and
legai notices, will be inserted three months and
charged accordingly unless otherwise ordered.

We beg leave to announce that we have accept
ed the agency of the
KANSAS PACIFIC RAILWAY CO.,
For the sale of its
New He-ten Per Cent.
Thirty Year Gold Loan, Free, from Tax.
This Loan amounts to $6,500,000.
First Mortgage Land-Grant and Sinking

More than the Interest upon tin's neic Lfjan.
In addition to this the Bonds are also secured by
& firs*-of tbe
Government Land Grant of Three Mil
lion Acres,
extending in alternate sections on either side of
the track, from tho 391 th mile post in Kansas to
Denver. The proceeds of tbe sale of these lands
are to he invested by the Trustees in the 7 per
cent Bonds themselves up to 120 or in U.S. bonds,
as
.1 Sinking Fund for the Redemption of the
Bonds.
The lands embrace some of the finest portions
of the magnificent Territory of Colorado, inclu
ding a coal field and pinery. The company also
hulas as an asset another tract of
Three Millions uf Acres in the State of
Kansas,
and although not pledged as a security for this
Loan, their possession adds largely to 'he Com
pany's wealth and credit. We estimate the
Value of the Company's property, covered
by this mortgage, at $23,000,000 net,
while the Loan is merely
$6,500,000.
