A WORD or ADVlCE.—Parents desirous of
securing to their sons the best facilities for
acquiring a thorough practical Business Edu
cation are advised to send for circulars of the
Iron City College, which can be obtained on
application to the Principals, Smith k Cowley,
Pittsburgh, Pa.
WE would call the attention of our readers
to the advertisements of Seward k Bentlev,
which appear on the outside of our paper al
ternately each week. They are enterprising
Druggists, No. 180 Main street, Buffalo, and
are doing a big business in the Alisma for the
Hair, which has been tried and proven to be
the best in use. — SprinqrilU Tribune, Novem
ber 19.
NEXT week will be court week when many
of our subscribers and patrons will have an
opportunity of settling old accounts. We
greatly need all the money due us and hope
that even the smallest biils will not be neg
lected. Call and see us, we will be glad to
see you whether you owe us or not. It al
ways does us good to meet our patrons.
A BIG DELEGATION. —On Wednesday morn
ing last, J. Q. McAtee, Lutheran Minister of
Bedford Charge, was surrounded by a dele
gation of wood rargers from Dutch Corner,
Suake Springs and Friends Cove. The Bish
op and his wife, who are good manipulators,
opened on this solid phulanx about 12 o'clock
with a heavy charge of bread, butter, cakes,
and a lot of other good things, which riddled
the ranks completely, not a single man es
caping wounds.
After the retreat of the rangers we visited
the scene of conflict, and seeing a solin forti
-1 cation 80 feet long, 8 feet high and 4 feet
broad, concluded that there would be peace
iu that quarter the balance of the year, for
there is no force in the county that would un
dertake to latter down that wall —save the
Bishop.
TIMELY IIIXTS os THE USE OF COAL. —The
following timely hints on the economical use
i of coal, from the Scientific American, will be
fonnd worthy of a careful study by many of
our readers:
A common fault is to use too coarse wood
for kindling, and too much of it. This, while
it generally succeeds in lightning the coal,
leaves, a bed of ashes below the coal which
interferes with the draught unless raked out
—au operation which always retards the com
bustion of ignited coal- The wood should be
of grime rapidly burning variety which gives
a quick and high heat, and should be split
fine. It shonld be so placed that the coal will
remain on the top of it, and not fall through
to the grate, leaving the kindling on the top
of any part of the coal. The amount of kind-
I ling wood required depends much upon the
I size of the coal. A common mistake is to
use too large sized coal. A good rule, where
stoves or furnaces have a good draught, is to
use coal as small ah can be used without in
convenience from its sifting too freely through
the grate.
(1 rates should have their bars closely set
] for stoves that are cleaned out daily, and have
fires lighted in them each morning, while
those which are intended to have fires kept iu
them continuously for days or weeks will not
admit of fine grates, on account of the accu
mulation of ashes and small "clinkers."
There is much difference in coal in regard to
the formation in regard to clinkers. These
are nothing but vitrified, or partially vitrified,
earthy matters, and only can form when a
high heat is maintained; they are apt to be
troublesome when there is too great draught.
A coal stove or furnace should be so con
structed that its draught can be perfectly con
trolled. The bottom draught should admit of
being closed air tight, as nearly as is possible
to make it, and there ought always to be pro
vision made for a top draught. If, however,
the draught of a chimney should be so strong
that air in too great quntities is drawn in at
the bottom when the dampers are closed, a
damper in the pipe, which will close it par
tially, must be employed, though in sluggish
chimneys such a damper is apt to force the
gases of combustion into the room, and there
fore it ought always to be avoided when pos
sible.
The practice of putting ashes on the top of
a fire too keep it is very productive of clinkers,
although it answers the purpose very well in
other respects. Damp coal screenings are
better, and may be economically burned in
this manner. If a coal tire gets very low, the
quickest way to extinguish it is to rake it at
the bottom. To preserve tire under such
circumstances, a little coal should be placed
on ihe fire, and when it has caught more may
be added, and the raking deferred until it has
got well ignited. When the fire bricks have
become burdened with clinkers which have
fused and adhered, they inay be cleaned by
throwing oyster or clam shells into the fire
box when the fire is very hot, aud allowing
the fire to go out. The clinkers will generally
cleave off without the use of much force the
next morning. From two quarts to one half
a peek will be sufficient for most stoves, and
the operation can be repeated if some of the
clinkers still adhere.
" MONEY IS SO SCARAE ; 1 wonder why ii
is?" Such is the expression heard daily in
our streets. Money is scarce in this commit
nity, but that people should wonder why, is a
mailer of surprise to us. It is rather a won
der that we have any money at all. What is
there to bring us money? We have no man
ufactures, we have no mines, we produce
uothing but grain and stock, and of these our
farmers have sold but little or none for almost
two years. In that time our merchants have
been bringing us goods and groceries which
we have bought and consumed, and the mo
ney we have paid for iheni has gone to the
distant cities. Is it any wonder money is
scarce under such circumstances? We see
axe-helves, wagon and carriage hubs,
spokes and felloes, brought from abroad ami
money sent out of the community to pay for
them, while as good if not better timber
for these purposes grows in sight of our own
doors. Why have we no citizens wilh indus
trial enterprise enough to erect manufacto
ries of various kinds whose product shall go
abroad and bring us a return in money. Until
such things are done here we will suffer from
scarcity of money, whenever our farmers are
dissatisfied with the prices of grain and stock
and conclude to hold their'sfor better prices.
Some one will say freights are too high here
to begin manufacturing for foreign markets.
Then let us build a railroad. It will reduce
the cost of freight and make a better market
for our farmers. After all a railroad will
cure many of our evils. So let us go to work,
aud when we have a railroad we will perhaps
be able to arouse such a spirit of business
enterprise as will cure the other evils with
which we are at present afflicted.
WHAT WE PAY. —Through the courtesy ot
Mr. Fulton we have been furnished with the
tonnage of freight delivered at and sbipj ed
from Mt. Dallas over the Huntingdon and
Brod Top railroad. The aggregate for the
past ten months is 2432 tons, or at the rate
of about 3000 tons per year. Now this freight
nearly all comes to Bedford in wagons at the
rate of from $2.50 to $o or $4 per ton. On
coal wc have to pay $2.50, and on almost all
other goods of a more bulky or valuable char"
acter we have to pay more. At $2.50 per
ton it costs us $7,500 per year to get our
freight from Mt. Dallas to Bedford. With
a railroad it would all be brought here for
SISOO, leaving the amount we are yearly pay
ing to do without a railroad at least a round
S6OOO, without including the enormous char
ges for'passenger fares. Now, $50,000 wift
get us a railroad, while we are paying SO,OOO
a year, or the interest ou SIOO,OOO, for the
privilege of doing without one. Can we af
ford such extravagance? Had we not better
subscribe the $50,000? We will save 12 per
cent, or SOOOO per year by it. In a little
more than eight years we would save all it
costs us to get the road and have our road
beside. Cau we under such circumstances
afford any longer to do without the railroad?
Let us go to work; we can make no better in
vestment.
TERRIFIC EXPLOSION.—A Cadiz Ohio pnper
says : "A vulcanizer exploded in the Dental
office of Mr. Wm. Cessna, of this place, on
last Tuesday morning. It was sitting on a
stove and hod become over-heated. The
stove was broken into fifty pieces and scatter
ed in all directions. A clock that was sitting
on a shelf near by was likewise demolished,
but a looking-glass hanging on the wall was
not injured. Pieces of the vulcanizer pene
trated the ceiling of the room, cutting through
the laths, aud the glass in the windows was
nearly all broken out. Mr. Cessna was sit
ting within four feet of the stove at the time
of the explosion, and wag tumbled backward
on the floor, but, strange to say, was not in
jured in the least."
The above Mr. Cessna is a young man from
this place, Bedford, and a son of John J.
Cessna Esq. A very narrow escape indeed.
SURGICAL. —Several weeks ago Drs. Wm.
Watson and J. R. Anderson of this place per
formed a surgical operation on a young man
named Oldham, of Somerset County, Penn
sylvania, by removing a fibrous tumor from
his neck. Mr. Oldham had been to Phila
delphia and Pittsburgh for the express pur
pose of having this tumor removed, and not
finding any one who would undertake the job,
came to Bedford on the 28th of Oct., and
applied to the above named physicians who
performed the operation in fifteen or twenty
minutes. Mr. Oldbum is uo*r getting along
fine.
As UNFORTUNATE Att'Air. — We are pained
to give the details of an unfortunate affair
which occurred in this place on Monday night
of last weeic, re.*ulting in the death of a young
man named Miles Uampson, and the* im
prisonment of our young friend Howard
Crewitt, clerk in the hardware store of Whar
ton A Maguire. From the numerous con
flicting stories in circulation we gather the
following: It seems that llampson and
Crewitt had had some words on the street
previous to Monday night. On Monday even
ing Harapson entered the store of Wharton
A Maguire, and after getting what he wanted,
remarked to Crewitt that they had had some
difficulty, and invited him to go out on the
street, where he said he would "take it out nt
him." Crewitt refused to go to the street,
but consented to go into the yard back of the
store. llampson then went out, tollowed by
Crewitt, who immediately afterwards return
ed to the store. Uampson also returned in a
few minutes afterwards with his head badly
cut and bleeding profusely, alleging that he
bad been hit by some heavy instrument and
knocked down. He then walked to the office
of Dr. Druinhangh, and had his wound dress
ed, from which he appeared to experience
little inconvenience for a day or two. On
Wednesday afternoon, however, while on the
street in front of the Exchange Hotel, he was
seized with a fainting fit, and was immediate
ly afterwards removed to his lodgings at the
Jackson House. Delirium and convulsions
followed immediately afterwards, which en
ded in his death on Thursday night.
A post mortem examination revealed the
fact that his skull had been fractured and
that his death was the result of the injury
received.
Crewitt immediately afterwards gave him
self up to the authorities, and on Friday even
ing was brought before bis Honor, Judge
Taylor, on a writ of habeas corpus, and ad
mitted to bail on the sum of SSOOO tor his ap
pearar.ee at the coming Court.
Uampson was a young man of rather dt3
sipated habits, and when under the influence
of liquor is said to have been quarrelsome.
Crewitt has the reputation of being a sober,
inoffensive young man, and has the sympathy
of the community in this unfortunate affair.
The whole matter is now in the hands of
the proper authorities, and will of course un
dergo an impartial judicial examination. —
Huntingdon Journal and American.
HIGHWAY ROBBERY.—A gentleman named
Sarn'l Gamer, residing a short distance from
Gresncastle, was attacked oo Sunday night,
and robbed of nearly one hundred dollars,
and other valuables which he had upon bis
person. The particulars are as follows : Mr.
Garner went to Greencastle for the purpose
of making some necessary purchases, and
while in town, he met two persons—negroes
who asked him for some money due them,
for services. He immediately paid them,
and then proceeded to make his ] urchases.
The payment of the two negroes, it appears,
was observed by another individual —also a
negro —who was convinced that Mr. G. was
tlush of money—and then, no doubt the in
tention entered his mind to waylay and rob
him. Acting upon thi , the negro started
ahead of bis intended victim, and when some
distance out ol town, he came suddenly be
hind and felled him lo the ground, beating
him in an unmerciful manner until he be
lieved life was extinct, then robbed him, tak
ing also a pair of stockings which Mr. G. had
previously purchased. Mr. Garner lay in
sensible several hours, when upon coming to,
he dragged himself, to bis home. Awakening
the family, he was taken into the house, and
Lis wounds dressed. We understand these
are of a very serious nature, and some doubts
are entertained of his recovery.
The negro whose name was Evens, was ar
rested, and upon searching bis person the
stockings and the greater part of the money
was found—he having the stockings on his
leet. The prisoner a> brought to Chambers
burg on Sunday and lodged in jail to await
trial. Vhambcrsburg Public Opinion Nov. 2.

stock exhausted, and the new will be a fail
ure.
J irtue —Old growth nearly consumed:
young growth, prospect very unpromising.
Jlonesti/ None in the market.

holders, and held close.
Modesty— Stock badly managed—None for
sale to street speculators.
Vict— Market over-stocked.
Pride - Market glutted.
Politeness —Cheap. Holders unwilling to
dispose of any at present rates.
Scandal —Xone at wholesale, dealt in chief
ly by peddlars at retail.
Religion —A ery little of '.he genuine article
on band. Stock generally adulterated. Sev
eral heavy speculators have gone into bank
ruptcy.
Lore —None offered, except for green
backs/'
COLD WEATHER.— After a few fair days,
seeming harbingers of the delightful season
of Indian Summer, we were treated to cold
raw weather on Saturday, with a fierce snow
storm in the afternoon, continuing through
the night and nearly all day on Sunday.
Since then the mercury has dropped down to
the neighborhood of 20° with high wind more
suggestive of Feb. than Nov. Such intense
and continuous coldso early in the season has
not beeu known here for many years. It
really seems as if winter had set in, which
would be a grave calamity as the larger por
tion ol the corn crop is still in the fields and
our people ure generally unprepared for win
ter. The streams are also unusually low and
if severe cold should continue would almost
freeze dry. We hope to see more moderate
weather in a few days and perhaps some fine
Indian Summer yet. It is certainly greatly
needed to enable our people to make reasona
ble preparations for winter.
A CHANGE.— Mr. Win. Dibcrt of the Wash
ington House has sold out to a Mr. Murray,
lately of New York, who took charge of af
fairs on Wednesday last. Mr. Murray we
understand is a clever, accommodating land
lord, and a good business man, having run
the Lochiel House in Hariisburg and the
Herdick House in Williamsport each a num
ber of yeßrs with suicess. We bespeak for
him the patronage which has so kindly been
extended to Mr. Dibert and also the patron
age of all who want number one aceommoda
tions' An anxiety for other business induced
Mr. Dibert to sell out at this time, though he
intended doing so in the Spring. He kept a
quiet orderly house, and plenty of good ra
tions which are requisites to success anywhere.
STOMP ISLAND.— A despatch from O. E.
Shannon, Esq., who is at Stump Island says
they have struck a fifty barrel well, and will
"have several other wells ready to be tested
in a lew days." There is a great deal of
Bedford money invested in Stump Island and
we will be very glad indeed to congratulate
our interested friends in an entire success.
We believe that one greut drawback to our
railroad enterprise has been the losses in oil
speculations, aud if our people are so fortu
nate as to make a big strike, it will ease our
money market, enlarge our railroad subscrip
tion. grease the wheels in every branch of bu
siness and thus benefit the towu aud people
generally. Let 'er come!
Go to the I NOOIREa Book Store fer station
ery, school books, miscellaneous books, news
papers, magazines, pens, pencils, inks and
every thing in that line. Don't be afraid to
go in and look around anyhow—No barm done
if you dou't buy.
CAX AXT OXB TUX? —The following per
tinent questions we clip from an exchange.
They will be found as applicable in this lati
tude as anywhere else in the country :
Can any one tell how men who absolutely
cannot pay small bills, can always find plenty
of money to buy liquor ami treat when hap
pening among friends ?
Can any one tell how many young men,
i who dodge their washwoman, and who are
always behind with their landlord, can play
billiards night and day, and are always really
for a game of poker or seven up?
Can any one tell how it is that some men
owe their butcher, owe for rent, owe tailor
ing, for shoes, etc, can yet have everything
that's nice, eat oysters at night, wear fine
clothes and have all the delicacies of the sea
son ?
Can any one tell how men live and sup
port their families who have no income and
don't work, while others who are industrious
ami always employed almost starve?
Can any one tell how a man who is too
poor to pay four or five cents a week for a
newspaper, can spend five or six times as
much for cigars ana tobacco to say nothing of
drinks ?
Til CUE is no mistake about it, PLAXTATIOX
BITTEHS will ward off Fever and Ague and
all kindred diseases, if used in time. No fami
ly need suffer from this distressing complaint
if they will keep I'I.AXTATJOX BITTEHS in the
house, and use it according to directions.
Hie most important ingredient of this
medicine is Calisaya or lVruvian Bark, which
is known to be the finest and purest tonic in
the vegetable kingdom. The extract of this
Bark is the active principle of all the good
Fever and Ague Medicines perscribed by in
telligent doctors. Calisaya Bark is used ex
tensively in the manufacture of PLANTATION
BITTEHS, as well as quinine, and we dare say
they owe their popularity mostly to that fact.
We can recommend them.
How llostcttcr's Bitters cure Dyspepsia.
THE WHOLE STOUT IX A NUTSHELL.
The office of the stomach is to convert the
lood into a cream like semi-fluid, called
CHYME. This is effected partly by the action
of a solvent, called the gastric juice, which
exudes from the coating of the stomach, and
partly by a mechanical movement of that
organ, which churns, as it were, the dissolv
ing aliment. The CHYME passes from the
stomach into the duodenum, or entrance tc
the bowels, where it is subjected to tbe action
of the bile, Btid the nutritions portion ut it
converted into a (laid called Chyle, which
eventually becomes blood.
Now. it is evident that it the great solvent,
the gastric juice, is not produced in sufficient
quantity, or if the mechanical action of the
stomach is not sufficiently brisk, the Jirst
process qf digestion will be but imperfectly
performed. It is also clear that if the liver,
which plays such an important part in chang
ing the nourishing portion of the chyme into
the mate Jul of the blood, is congested, or in
any unnatural condition, the second jirocess
will not be thoroughly accomplished. The
result of the tiro failures is dyspepsia , com
plicated with biliousness.
The mode in which HOSTETTEU'S IHT
TRRS operate in such cases is this: they in
vigorate the cellular membrane of the
stomach, which evolves the gastric juice,
thereby insuring an niriple sufficiency of ihe
fluid to completely dissolve the food. They
also act upon the nerves of the stomach,
causing an acceleration of the mechanical
movement necessary to reduce the food to a
homogeneous mass. They also act specifically
upon the liver, strengthening it, and so ena
bling it to produce an ample and regular sup
ply of bile, for the purpose of converting the
nutritions panicles of the Chyme into Chyle,
and promote the passage through the bowels
of tbe useless debris.
In this way, HOSTETTEII'S BITTERS
cure dyspepsia and liver complaint. The ex
planation is plain, simple, philosophical, and
true.
ONE of th• few really successful enterprises
of tbe day is Barker & Co.'s One Dollar Sale.
Their system offers a greater opportunity for
the purchase of the thousand and one useful
articles, at a price that comes will-in the
reach of all classes, than any other.
It is a will understood fact, that certain
classes of goods pay the dealer a very large
percentage of profit: This appears almost
necessary, especially in Fancy Goods, Jcwel
ij, Silver I'lated Ware. Ac., of which a deal
er docs not sell sufficient of any one article to
make it an object of trade, and is obliged to
purchase in small quantities ; and when the
goods are sold by three or four different
classes of merchants, and each charge a very
large profit, the price becomes double the
original cost of manufacture before reaching
tbe hands of the people.
It is in such goods Parker V Co., B8 & 100
Summer street, Boston, deal most extensive
ly. Their sales are so immense they make
each article a speciality, often buying alia
manufacturer can produce. Their system
gives universal satisfaction. Read their ad

Critical Notice of the Pre**
HARPER'S BAZAR contain?, besides picture?,
pattern?, etc.. a variety of matter of especial use
aod interest to the family; article? on health,
drear, and housekeeping in all i!a branches: its
cditofial matter is *pcci:tl!y adapted to the circle
if i? intended to interest and instruct; and it has,
beside?, good t ri- s and literary matter of merit l
It is not surprising that the journal, with such
features, has achieved in a -hurt time an immense
success : for something of its kind was desired in
tb usands of families, aod its publisher? have
filled the demand. The young lady who buys a
single number or HAULER'S BAZAR is TU NIC A sub
scriber for life.— New. York Evening Pott.
The BAZA it is excellent. Like all the Periodi
ca'.- which the Harpers Publish, it is almost
ideally well edited, and the class of reader? for
whom it is intended—the mothers and daughter?
in average families—can not but profit by its
good sense and good taste, which, we have no
doubt, are to-day making very many homes hap
pier than they may have been before the woman
began taking lessons in jersonal and household
and social man igemtnt from this good nature-!

It has the merit of being sensible, of conveying
instructions, of giving excellent patterns in every
department, and of being well stocked with good
reading matter.— Watchman and lie/lector.

THE ONLY RELIABLE CURE FOR
A DYSPEPSIA in the KNOWN WORLD.
DR. WISHART'B GREAT AMERICAS DYSFEF
SIA Piu-s and PINK TREE TAR CORDIAL are a
positive and infallible cure for dyspepsia in
its most aggravated form, and no matter of
how long standing.
They penetrate to the secret abode of this
terrible disease, and exterminate it, root and
branch torever.
Tbey alleviate more agony and silent suf
fering than tongue can tell.
They are noted for curing the most desper
ate and hopeless cases, when every known
means fail to afford relief.
No form ot dyspepsia or indigestion can
resist their penetrating power.
DR. WISH ART'S
PINE TREE TAII CORDIAL.
It is the vital principal of the Pine Tree,
obtained by a peculiar process in the distilla
tion of tke'tar, by which its highest medical
properties are retained. It iuvigoraies the
digestive organs aud restores the appetite.
It strengthens the debilitated system. It
purifies and enriches the blood, and expels
t.om the system the corruption whicb scrofu
lar breeds on the lungs. It dissolves the
mucus or phlegm which stops the air pas
sage of the lungs. Its healing principle nets
upon the irritated surface of the lungs and
throat, penetrating to each deceased part, re
lieving pain and subduing infiamatinn. It is
the result of years of study and experiment,
and it is offered to the afflicted with positive
assurance of its power to cure the following
diseases, if the patient has not too long de
layed a resort to the means of cure:—
Consumption of the Lungs, Cough Sore
Throat, Bronchitis, JAcir Complaint,
Blind and Bleeding J'iles,
Asthama, Whoop
ing Cough,
Dipth'e
via,
