IMPORTANT NOTICE. —AII persons knowing themselves indebted to the firm of Durborrow and I.utz. either by book account or note, are earnestly requested to settle their accounts at once, as the books must be closed. JOHN LVTZ. FALSE ALARM. —On Thursday evening of last week, the cry of fire raised quite a com motion on J uliatiaand Pitt Sts. As is usual on -ucb an occasion in this place, everybody ran the wror.g way, and nobody thought of the tv-eine or hose, neither of which, however, would have been of any use had the alarm proved more than a cbimuey on fire, for there is no water in our reservoir. It will be good by Bedford, if she ever catches fire. Some years ago with one reservoir wc generally had • -rplus water enough to extinguish a fire oc casionally. Now we have two reservoirs and can't get as much water as we can drink, b ho 8 to blame ? 1 HANKSGIYINU was unusually well observed in old Bedford ; business generally being sus pended, except the court, which also ad journed during the religious services of the morning. The congregations of the towu unitedly attended service at the Presbyterian church where an able and appropriate sermon was preached by Rev. J. Q. McAtee, the pas tor of the Lutheran church. After service the time honored custom of eatiDg roast turk ey was scruixulously observed by almost every household. The editor would have been en tirely forgotten in the general rush for turkey, but for mine hospitable host of the Washing ton, who thoughtfully provided a choice fat one, with which we were enabled to satisfy the wants of the inner man, and give thanks along with our neighbors.

"Ir I ONLY nxo CAPITAL." —If I only had capital, we heard a young man say a few days ago as he puffed away at a ten cent cigar, I would soon do something. If I only had capital, said another as he walked away from a dram-shop where he bad just paid ten cents for a drink, I would go into business. The same remark might have been beard from the young man loafing on the street corner. Young man with the cigar, you are smoking away your capital; you, from the dram-shop, are drinking yours and destroying your body at the same time, and you, of the street cor ner, are wasting yours in idleness and form ing bad habits. Dimes make dollars. Time is money. Don't wait for a fortune to begin with. If you had ten thousand a year and spent it all you would be poor still. The mil liounaires of our land began poor. Our men of power and influence did not start with for tunes. You too can make your mark if you will. But you must stop spending your mon ey for what you don't need and squandering your time in idleness. Go to work. Do whatever you can find. Refuse no useful or honorable work until you can get better. It is not honest work that degrades men. Make good use of your time. Save your earnings, and improve your leisure moments by storing your mind with useful knowledge. Be true to your employer. Care for his business and his iuterests as if they were your own. Such conduct will make you friends, aud a judi cious economy will accumulate you capital. Then you may begin for yourself whenever a favorable opportunity offers ; and the same, industry, economy and attention to business will give you a competence. This is the way you can attain to power and influence. If you get tbem any other way, your bad habits will waste your patrimony and destroy your influence. If you are unwilling thus to labor for them you are unworthy to enjoy them and will never get them. There still is no excel lence without labor. THE secret of the Alisma's success Ex plained. The hair is secreted by a little ve sicle or gland, and each gland is nourished and supported by a minute blood-vessel, and at long as these blood-vessels carry a suffi cient quantity of nourishment to these glands, the hair will grow : but if from disease or any other cause, these vessels become ob structed or torbid, so much so as not to carry to these glands a sufficient quantity of blood to nourish and sustain them, the bair will be come dry and fall off. The reproduction of the bair, therefore, depends upon the restora tion of these small blood-vessels to their primitive and unobstructed circulation, which indication the Alisma performs. It is abso lutely necessary, before new hair can be pro duced, to stimulate the scalp by the applica tion of the Alisma, which excites the blood vessels to an increased healthy action. Re member, it reqnires time; for if the bair were to start as soon as the tonic was applied, it wonld probably be five or six weeks before it would make its appearance through the skin. HINKLEY KNITTING MACHlNE. —Elsewhere will be found the card of Messrs. Straw A Morton 20th street, agents for the above machine. We have never had much confi dence in the statements made in regard to the capabilities of (he various Knitting Machines now before the public, but having personally examined the Hinkley Machine, we. find that it will perform all that is claimed for it in the advertisement, in a satisfactory manner. The agents are among the most reliable and en terprising of the business men of our city, and their names alone are a sufficient guarantee that anything that comes from their establish ment will be as represented.— Pittsburgh Christian Advocate. GAME. —This is the time of year our sports men enjoy themselves. Already we hear the report of the hunter's rifle in every "neck of woods" Already have we seen some of our townsmen return from a bunting ex cursion with game, traps and dog and a brace of turkeys, a deer or a bear. On Friday last our friend 'Squire, E. M. Alsip, shot a turkey which weighed 18 or 20 pounds. His father John Alsip, Esq , the next day killed two deer. A Mr. May and two other gentlemen of Londonderry town ship killed two deer and a bear a few days ago. Concerning the last, a very interesting, thrilling and exciting story is afloat, bat as we bav'nt got the particulars from reliable sources, we retain from giving it. MURDER IS HPKTIKGDOS CODSTT.— On Wednesday evening the 17th inst., the most atrocious murder, it has ever been our duty to record, was committed near Eleasant Grove, a station on the Huntingdon and Broadtop Railroad. The victims, three in number, Mr. John Pechtel, bia wife, and a boy named Scott Garner, were sitting at supper, when all three were shot. Mr. Pechtel and Gar ner were instantly killed and Mrs. Pechtel being only wounded was afterward killed with a hatchet. The object of the murderers was to obtain several thousand dollars of money which Mr. Pechtel was supposed to have, and which they obtained. After plundering the house the 4ead bodies of the murdered par lies were placed on a bed and covered over and the bed set on fire. The design was evidently to burn the house and dead bodies so as to convey the idea that the house bad burned and the inmates perished in the flames. This occurred between seven and eight o'clock—about nine o'clock two men passing by, discovered the light and the smoke issuing from the house and at once entered and extinguished the fire without much difficulty. They then found the vie tims paitially burned, but not enough to pre vent identification. The alarm was at once given and messengers dispatched to Hunting don. The murderers in the meantime bad reached Huntingdon, and entered an oyster saloon uear the depot, evidently trying to conceal themselves or attract as little atten tion as possible. They spent about three hours at Huntingdon, when they took the 31 a. m. train for Altoona. Shortly after their departure the parties from the vicinity of the murder reached Huntingdon; where they were informed of the sucpicious looking couple referred to. A telegram was imme diately sent to Altoona, and on the arrival of the train, the murderers were arrested. They were returned to Huntingdon Thanksgiving day. Great excitement prevailed on their arriv al and the excited populace threatened to lyDch them and hang them on the spot. The murderers are Germans named Oliver Bod enbnrg aud Gotlieb Bohner. The latter is said to have been convicted of larceny in Huntingdon some three years ago and sent to the penitentiary. Mr. Pechtel was quite old, about 65 years of age, and his wife CI, the boy was about ten. The money obtained was about S2OOO. When arrested S2OO of greenbacks were found on the murderers and s6oo'were afterward found in the lockup at Altoona, where they were kept. Some S2O in gold were afterward obtaiued from one of the prisoners, who bad attempted to conceal it in his mouth. Bohner has since confessed as follows : I was born in Wurtemberg, in May, 1827, aud came to this country in 186F, I was never married. I served as a private in Co. C, 70th New York Volunteers, for two years and two months. After being discharged from the army I lived first in New York, then in Huntingdon, and lately at Altoona. 1 worked in the coal mine on Broad Top a couple of months for Robert Hare Powell. I was never acqaainted with the family of John Pechtel; but passed there once and asked for work. I first became acquainted with Oliver [Al bert] Bodenberg at his Loaiding-house in A1 tooua in September last. We slept together and boarded at the same house. Soon after I got acquainted with him, be told me that Pechtel had money, lie said that he had slept there twice. He asked me to go along and stay outside, and said I need not know what be did inside. We came down on the cars on Monday evening from Altoona, and walked from Huntingdon byway of M'Con nellstown to Pechtel's that evening; and slept all night in his (Pechtel's) stable loft. On Tuesday we walked over the neighbor hood and inquired for work, and staid all night in barn further down the road. On Wednesday morning we came to Huntingdon, and I did not want to go back [This was on the morning of the murder.] Oliver [Albert] said if I did not go back he would shoot me. We started back after dinner and walked by Pechtel's; but went by the Broad Top to avoid getting there too soon. We stopped a while at M'Connellstown station, and a while at Pleasant Grove. We reached Pechtel's about 7 o'clock. I staid on the railroad and Oliver [Albert] went to the house. I heard only one shot. The wind was blowing very hard. He was in the house about one hour. He brought out the bags full of gold and sil ver. He gave me one of them, and said, "Now, let's go." I think Oliver [Albert] had about twice as much money as 1 had. He told me in the lock-up at Altoona that be had put the money away while he was down in the privy, by digging a bole with his hand and burying it. Bodenberg, corroborates this, with this ex ception—He alleges he staid on the railroad while Bobner went to the house. Bodenberg also alleges that they got a bot tle of liquor at M'Conuellstown, but that he had only two drinks. UNSEASONABLE POETRY.— In looking over our exchanges we are sometimes struck with the extremely unseasonable character of po etical selections. This year wiuter begun in this region aboat the middle of October and verily seems to have fastened on us with such a firm grip that there is little prospect ot his relaxing it until April. Notwithstanding this fact we find in about one-half of our ex changes that Just after the death of the flowers, And before they are hurried in snow There comes a festive season When natnre is all ag'ow— Ac., Ac. In those smoothly flaming stanzas we admit that Indian Summer is beautifully portrayed, but then Indian Summer has obstinately re fused to respond to all this flattery and has not deigned to show ber face or give us the faintest glimpse of her gorgeous raiment. On the contrary tierce, cold, unrelenting win ter close clasped in his robe of SDOW greet 6 us ere we bad fairly passed the portals of summer, and the flowers are buried in snow almost before their death and instead of In dian Summer, "The comir.g of the snow storm" would make more seasonable reading. FIRE IN THE ALTOONA R. li. SHOPS. — About eight o'clock on Tuesday night fire was discovered issuing from the planing mill connected with the Railroad Shops in this city. In a short time the whole building was enveloped in flames and the fire communi cated to the tin shop adjoining. The planing mill was a frame building and contained a large quantity of finished and rough lumber. The entire building and contents were con sumed. The tin shop was partially destroyed. We have no estimate of the loss, but have understood it is at least $25,000. The fire department were promptly on the ground and by their efficiency, (aud they labored at great disadvantage on account of the scarcity of water) the main buildings of the company were saved from ruin, although one of them was several times on fire. The origin of the fire is unknown, but there are no grounds for supposing it anything other than an accident. It is estimated that fifteen or twenty bands are temporarily thrown out of employment, but no doubt the company will give them other work until the buildings burned, are replaced, which, we understand, will be done at once Blair Countv Radical. WE are glad to learn of the succss of our friend John W. Shuck who has been elected Clerk of the Cosnty Court of Champaign County, 111. by an overwhelming majority. John always was a good Republican, true to his country in time of her trouble, having served a number of years in the late war, and justly deserves the honor the people have conferred upon him. DUNNING.— One of our exchanges, hard np for tnouey to meet expenses, has been com pelled to dun pretty sharply, and ingeniously puts in rhyme the apology therefor—which we commend to the attention of onr own read ers: "Should you ask why this dunning, Why these sad complaints and murmurs, Murmurs loud about delinquents Wbo have read the paper weekly, Read what they have never paid for, Reed with pleasure and with profit, Read of State affairs and prospects, Read of news both home and foreign, Read the essays and the poems, Full of wisdom aui in true to i, Read the table of the markets, Carefully corrected weekly? Should you ask us why this dunning? We should answer, we should tell you, "From the printer, from the mailer, From the kind old paper maker, From the landlord, from the carrier, From the man wbo taxes letters, With a stamp from uncle Samuel— 'Oncle Sam the rowdies call him; From them all there comes a mesrage, Message kind and firmly spoken, 'Please to fay us what you owe us.' "Sad it is to hear such message, When our funds are a'l exhausted, When the last bank note bos left us, When the gold coin all has vanished, Gone to pay tbe paper-maker, Gone to pay the toiling printer, Gone to pay the landlord tribute, Gone to pay the nimble carrier, Gone to pay the taithfnl mailer, Gone to pay our Uncle Samuel— Uncle Sam the rowdies call him — Gone to pay for used up paper Ten and twenty hundred dollars! ' 'Sad it is to turn our ledger, Turn the leaves of this old ledger, f urn to see what sums are due us, Due for volumes long since ended, Due for years of pleasant reading, Due for years ef toilsome labor, Due despite our constant dunning. Due in sums ftom three to twenty. "Would you lift a burden from us? Would you drive a specter from you ? Would you taste a pleasant slumber? Would you have a quiet conscience? Would you read a paper PAID FOR? Send u- money—send ug money, Send us money— send us money— SEND t-S.MO.VHV THAT YOU OWE US!" ANOTHER MURDER IN HUNTINGDON COUNTY. —At Broadtop city one day last week aMr Cassiday murdered his son, a young man, under the following circum stances. Mr Cassiday it seems was iu the habit of getting iDtosicatcd and abusing his family, when tbeyouug man would be oblig ed to protect the family from his violence and sometimes was compelled to turn hint out of the house. On the day of the mur der Cassiday overto k his sou some distance front the house, and attacked him with a club, ODe report says, and another with a knife, and killed him. Young Cassiday is reported to have been a steady yoong man who by work in the tuincs supported the family of bis dissipated father. The mur derer was arrested and lodged in the Hunt ingdon jail. Cot.-RT.—The attendance at Court last week was uuusually small for a regular session. The whole week was occupied with the quar ter sessions, not a civil case being tried. It is indeed a sad commentary upon the moral condition of our county, that a whole week should now be occupied with criminal busi ness when a few years ago but a couple of days were required to dispose of nil Com monwealth business. Is it the fault of our pablic officers? BANKING. —Mr. George F. Huff, agent of Wtu. M. Lloyd of Altoona paid a flying visit to our town on Thursday, at tho solic itation of a number of our citizens, with a view to making arrangements for opening a banking house. Banking facilities are greatly needed and we have a reasonable as surance that the above named parties will open business here within a week or two. ONE of the few really successful enterprises of the day is Parker & Co.'s One Dollar Sale. Their system offers a greater opportunity for the purchase of the thousand and one useful nrticles, at a price that comes within the reach of all classes, than any other. It is a well understood fact, that certain : classes of goods pay the dealer a very large ; percentage of profit: This appears almost necessary, especially in Fancy Goods, Jewel ry, Silver Plated Ware. Ac., of which a deal er does not sell sufficient of any one article to make it an object of trade, and is obliged to purchase in small quantities ; nod 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 , the hands of the people. It is in such goods Parker A Co., 98 A 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 vertisement. snov:lm. How Ilustcttcr's Hitters cure Dyspepsia. THE WHOLE STOBV IN A NCTSUELL. The office of the stomach is to convert the food 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 to the bowels, where it is subjected to the action of the bile, and the nutritions portion ot it converted into a fluid cailed Chyle, which eventually becomes blood. Now, it is evident that if the great solvent, the gastric juice, is not produced in sufficient j quantity, or if the mechanical action of the stomach is not sufficiently brisk, the first process of 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 i the n>ate:ial of the blood, ie congested, or in any unnatural condition, the second process will not be thoroughly accomplished. The result of the two failures is dyspepsia, com plicated with biliousness. The mode in which HOSTETTEICS BIT TERS operate in such cases is this; they in vigorate the cellular membrane of the stomach, which' evolves the gastric juice, thereby insuring an ample sufficiency of the fluid to completely dissolve the food. They al3o act upon the nerves of the stomach, causing an acceleration of the mechanical movement necessary to reduce the food to a homogeneous mass. Tbey 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 nutritious particles of the Chyme into Chyle, and promote the passage through the bowels of the useless debris. In this way, HOSTETTER'S BITTEKS cure dyspepsia and liver complaint. The ex planation is plain, simple, philosophical, and true.

Tbe thousands who have read Linda will make haste to procure a copy of Robert Graham, which is a sequel to that colebrated work, aud h also the second volume issued of Peterson's new and beauti ful edition of the complete works of Mrs Car oline Lee Hentx.

How to Do It, by Edward E. Hale, makes some suggestions that are perhaps as apropos for the elder as for the younger members of society. Christmas Tide, by A. W. Bellow, and Johnny Tearful, by George Cooper, are the poems in this number. Hot Buckwheat Cakes, is by H. L. Palmer; Carl's Christmas Carol, by Mr. W. McLain; Le l>(cuf Gras, by Mrs. Craik; how Battles are Fought, by Major Traverse, and how a Ship is Modeled and Launched, by J. T. Trow bridge, convey useful information in a very pleasant manner. A December Charade, is by Mrs. Daix, Round the Evening Lamp, and The Letter Box, are indeed treasuries of en tertainment for the long winter evetungs. There are promises of many good things for the coming year, and we wish The Young Folks a largely increased circulation.
