TEACHER'S INSTITUTE. —A teacher's insti
tute will be held in Bedford during the holi

Sufi/ Jice thousand dollars have been ex
pended on the house and grounds of the Hol
lidaysburg Seminar Y, and the result is one of
the most elegant educational establishments
iu the country.
I'ATTOSVII.LE. —A new tannery in the name
of the firm Geo. M. Bayer and Bro. and un
der the supervision of MR. C. J. Carpenter
has been put in operation at Pattonville and :
thus far proved a perfect success. The J
leather manufactured at this place has J
proven satisfactory in every particular. This j
is a decided improvement and a great ac- J
commodation to the people in that section of
the county. Tbe people of the Cove are
honest, industrious and enterprising and the
majority of them sound principled Repub- |
licans. We wish some of them would em
igrate to this quarter and assist us in our rail
road enterprise.
THE American Agriculturist is one of our
1 est Agricultural journals and should find a
place in every household. It is edited by
practical farmers who understand their busi
ness. No humbugs fiud a place in its col
umns—in fact it exposes more humbugs than
any other journal in the country. The De
cember number is one of the best containing
no less than forty six regular articles on vari
ous subjects, comprising farm, garden and
household, beside nearly fifty shorter or
basket articles. Its terms are $1.50 per year
iu advance, with liberal terms to clubs and
valuable premiums to all who wish to lend a
helping hand in extending its circulation.
The farmer can do no better work for his
community than spend a few spare days in
the winter in getting up a club for the Agri
culturist. Enclose 15 cents for a specimen
copy to Orange Judd A Co., 245 Broadway
New York.
DEDICATION - .—Messiah's Evangelical Lu
theran Church, Bedford township, Bedford
co., was dedicated on Sabbath morning, Nov.
28. The ministers assisting on the occaiiou
were Rev'ds. A. C. Ehrenfeld, Probst and
Benedict. A fitting discourse was delivered
by Rev. Ehrenfeld. The church is a fine
building, erected on a commanding site,
neatly finished, at a net cost of about $5,000,
of which $1,300 were raised on the occasion
named. Many feaied the result of that day,
out it proven to oe one wun wntcn many
pleasant recollections will be associated.
Notwithstanding the financial pressure, there
was but one sentiment, and that was, we have
built it and we can pay for it. Never have
we seen Christians face duty more faithfully.
We were favorably impressed with all the
exercises and in particular with the young
choir newly organized. They acquitted them
selves nobly. They have reared for them
selves a monument lasting and eternal.— COM.
THE Cambria Iron Company on the Gth of
November purchased 1700 acres of land near
and adjoining the town of Hopewell, and
known as the Hopewell property, from
Messrs. Cracroft, Paul and Christian for
$43,000. The same company also purchased
about the samS time and in the same locality
about 13 acres of coal land of L. T. Watson
ami the Buck tract containing about *220
acres, also coal land from Messrs. Paul and
Christian, the three purchases amounting in
the aggregate to about $05,000. We un
derstand the company contemplates the
erection of a couple furnaces on this prop
erty in a short time, perhaps the coming
summer. They will draw their coal snpply
from the above mentioned coal lands by ex
teuding a railroad up Sandy Run some three
miles. The extraordinary facilities possessed
by our county for the manufacturer are just
beginning to attract the attention of capi
talists. A fair trial will show that they are
second to none in the country.
MAGNOLIA WATER. —Superior to the best
imported German Cologne, and sold at hal
t'n price. ,f.
At.t. the Monthly Magazines, Periodicals
and daily papers can be bad at the Inquirer
Book Store.
BEHIND TI*E. —Why should we be continu
ally behind time? The difference between
our clock time here (as regulated by the town
clock) and the time of the Huntingdon and
Broadtop Railroad is just fifteen minutes.
Our neighbors north of os at Hollidaysburg
and Altoona have the game time. V horever
we go from Bedford we are too slow. We
do not know if our time is exact meridiau
time or not, but if everybody around us keeps
time fifteen minutes faster, would we not
greatly promote our own convenience and fa
cifitate our business transactions by adopting
; their time? An illustration of the annoyances
j caused by the present arrangement is found
i in the case of any one leaving here for
I the railroad. He thinks he has ample time
: and drives leisurely to Mt. Dallas, ten minutes
ahead of time ; he arrives at the station just
; in time to see the last whiff of smoke from
, the engine as the train passes out of sight.
| A delightful predicament certainly. He looks
at his watch and finds that the train has start
! Ed ten minutes ahead of schedule time ; but
the whole matter is made clear when he is
coolly informed that his time is just fifteen
minutes too slow. Now this does not actual
ly occur with parties going by the stage, be
cause they are then called for two hours be
fore train lime, but to tLose who are very
busy half this time may be saved by going in
their own conveyances, and these, unless they
bear in miud the difference in time are
nearly sure to be too late. Let us have faster
time and keep along with the rest of the
world.
HUNTINGDON AND BROAD TOP RAILROAD. —
"Country bondholder" asks ns for informa
tion concerning the payment of the interest
on the bonds of the Huntingdon and Broad
Top Railroad and Coal Company, and also as
to the value of the shares. The President
of the company has given the following in
formation : The coupuus of the first mortgage
bonds are being paid punctually when due at
the office, while those of the second mortgage
will be paid on and after the Ist cf November,
and punctually when due thereafter. The
business is rapidly improving under the
present management, and is fast clearing
itself from the difficulties in which it was in
volved some time ago New furnaces are being
erected for the manufacture of iron; the ton- ,
nage is increasing largely; the section through
which the road runs is rapidly improving,
and the prospects altogether are very flat
tering The value of the shares is nominal,
as there are none in the market for sale. —
Press.
The present and increasing prosperity of
the Huntingdon and Broad Top Railroad is
uo doubt largely promoted by the present
good management of its President, B. An
drews Knight, but its most promising pros
pective source of prosperity is in the devel
opment of the iniaing interests on the line of
the road, and its ;xtenion to the ore regions
of Bedford and beyond. The recent devel
opment of rich and almost iuexhaustiblc beds |
ot irop ore in this vicinity present great in
ducements for the extension of the road.
We know of nothing that would contribute
more to the pe-manent prosperity of this
road. It would at once develop large manu
facturing interests and greatly increase both
freights and travel over the whole length of
the road. We trust the President and Direc
tors will give this subject their early atten
tion.
FIRE IN HOLLIDATSBURG.—On Friday morn
ing last, between one and two o'clock, a fire
broke out in a frame building on the cornor
of Allegheny and Montgomery streets, Hol
lidaysburg. The building was known as
Moore's old store, and at the time of the fire
was occupied by Mr. Angus Condron as a
general variety store. Mr. Condron succeed
ed in saving the larger part of his stock, losing
probably a thousand dollars worth of boots
and shoes. Tbe fire was discovered and the
alarm promptly given, but owing to defective
fire apparatus and a scarcity of water, the
building could not be saved. The roof of a
large brick building adjoining, belonging to
the estate of the late Judge Rea, took fire and
was burned off, but by tbe strenuous efforts
of the citizens, who formed lines and carried
buckets, the building was saved from total
destruction. As there had been no fire in the
store during Thanksgiving day, the fire is
supposed to be the work of an iuceudiary.
The buildings were partially insured, as was
also Mr. Coudron's stock of goods.— Altoona
Tritrune.
PENNSYLVANIA RAIL ROAD COMPANY'S NEW
SHOPS. —The company are rapidly pushing to
completion their new shops in the north east
portion of the city, in what was formerly
known as Logan township. The Round
House, when finished, will be thirteen hun
dred and forty feet in diameter, with eighty
tracks; it is open centre, with turn table. It
will be used as a freight car shop. The
maintenance of way shops are two in number;
one building two stories, and one, one story for
carpenter and blacksmith shops, with engine
room attached. The foundations for four
more large sheps are about finished. We are
told they expect to occupy the freight and
maintenance of way shops about February or
the first of March. The building of these
shops has giyen employment to a large num
ber of bricklayers, masons, carpenters and
laborers, throughout the summer. Scarcely
one year ago, we remember seeing this same
ground under culture, and by the erecting of
these shops, our city, in two or three years
will have spread nearly two miles longer.
The land on both sides of the railroad, has
been laid out in city lots, and are now selling
rapidly, at high prices.— AUoona Vindicator.
'•WHERE is Drake S. T. 1800 X?" We
have heard this questioo asked many times,
and for all we knew for a year past he might
be dead. Recently, in New York, we called
at his Laborator in Liberty St., and there
found this gentleman barricaded behind a
tremendous pile of boxes, distributing funds
to a Sunday School Committee. Our busi
ness was to secure advertisements. He said:
"My dear sir, what is the use of advertising
tne r tarnation Dittcrar Tliey ocll better now
than when I advertised at such enormous
expenses, and now I have not made a con
tract for a year. I have all this amount to
give to the poor. To satisfy the Press, how
ever, who have always been my friends, I
thiuk I will givewou a little something to do
again, for I have improved the Bitters great
ly, and it may be welt -to have you let the peo
ple know it." And so he ran on in a happy,
cordial appreciative manner, showing the
wonders of his place and the cords of certifi
cates. Everything is on a magnificent scale,
and is done with neatness and promptness.
While there we saw at least forty orders come
in for these eelbrated Bitters. Cases were
being shipped to the four corners of the
world. Drake is not dead, nor bis Bitters
either.— Exchange paper.
OPENING OF A NEW BANK.— Wm. M. Lloyd
& Co., of Altoona on Tuesday last opened a
Banking house for loans and deposits in the
office recently occupied by O. E. Shannon's
Bank. The firm of Lloyd A Co., is one of the
best known and most substantial in the State
and [will at once command the confidence of'
the business community. Mr. Geo. F. huff
who is in charge of the bank is an ex
perienced banker and has been prominently
noticed and recom needed as a candidate for
State Treasurer.

AND he did wonderful works, insomuch
that his name was pronounced in many
tongues. And there came unto him Judith,
from the seaport of New Bedford, who had
been sick for many years; and after some
days ber pains were gone. She slept soundly,
and did rejoice in eating her food. And Asa,
from those which are called Quakers, in the
great city of Philadelphia, wrote an epistle
saying; O, Doctor! accept thou this money,
which is called greenbacks, and hath the pic
ture of Abraham, thy friend, on one end.
For verily I was weak, exhausted and despon
dent ; I ate but little, and suffered many pains,
and thy Pt.AXTl.ltox BITTERS gave me health,
likened only unto the vigor of youth. And
upon such as are afflicted with liver com
plaint, with sour stomachs; with general
debility and dyspeptic pains, in all parts of
the laud did these Bitters produce astonish
ing cures.
THE LIVER. —Its office is to separate impu
rities from tire life current, the blood, and to
secrete bile. How apparent the necessity for
health's sake is the proper performance of
its functions. If diseased, it cannot purify
the blood, which, it sent to the lungs, brain
and every part of the system, in a morbid
condition, will produce jaundice, insanity,
consumption, etc., etc.; and by withholding
the stimulus from the intestines, produces
dyspepsia, piles and many other disorders.
Delicate females and weak children are made
strong by the use of the Constitution Bitters.
In fact, they are a family medicine : they can
be given to the child of three months old, the
indisposed female, or a person of three score
and ten.
AVuo that has seen a dangerous disease ar
rested by an able physician or a good medi
cine but values both? Be it your family
physician to whom you owe so many escapes
from aches and ails, or Dr. Ayer's inimitable
remedies:—his Sarsaparilla that renewed
your vitality or Cherry Pectoral that cured
a painful cough, or his Ague Cure that ex
pelled the freezing ague and burning fever
from your blood. Who that has been re
lieved by any of these agencies but feels
grateful for them all?— Bangor Times.
The (trrnt Pictorial Annual.
Hostetter's United Slates Almanac for

cal treatise on the causes, prevention and
cure of a great variety of diseases, it embraces
a large amount of information interesting to
the merchant, the mechanic, the miner, the
farmer, the planter, and professional man;

THE NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW for October,
has been on our table several days. Its first
article, The Genesis of Language by John
Fiske is a learned investigation of tbe princi
ples of derivation in language. George P.
Fishe in an appreciative article discusses
The Writings of Mr. Rowland G. Hazard.
Indian Migrations is the subject of an essay
by Lewis U. Morgan in which a good deal of
speculation is indulged in without any defi
nite result: but as he promises another pa
per on the same subject it may yet result in
something valuable to tbe ethnologist. Hen
ry Brooks Adams contributes another paper
on Civil Service Reform, in which though
strongly advocating Reform, h3 expresses
grave doubts as to the ability of Congress to
accomplish it. He finally suggests that the
work is more likely to succeed if entered up
on gradually, beginning with competitive ex
aminations under the direction of the Presi
dent and a recommendation from Congress
to the executive of a return to the early prac
tice of the government. We are far from
sanguine in the expectation that the change
can he effected gradually as it would enable
the whole horde of place seekers to concen
trate their effoits upon whatever point might
he chosen for inaugurating the work. We
have more faith in something so sweeping id
its character as to leave neilLer standing
room nor foot-hold for the army of office
seekers. In The Coast of Egypt and the
Suez Canal Henry Mitchell cont.-ibutes a
large amount of accurate, and interesting in
formation of a most seasonable character.

FOR THE RENOYA fION OF THE HAIR.
THE ORE AT DB SIDE 11A TVM OF THE AGE
A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy,
and effectual for preserving tbe hair. Faded or
gray hair it toon rettortd to itt original color and
the glott and freehnct of youth. Thin bair is
| thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness
j ifun, though not always, cured by its use.
1 Nothing can restore tbo hair where tho follicles
j are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decay
ed. But such as remain can bo saved for useful
| ness by this application. Instead of fouling the
lair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean
and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the
bair from turning gray or falling off, and conse
quently prevent baldness. Freo from those dele
terious substanees which make some preparations
dangerous and infurious to the hair, the Vigor
can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable. Contain
ing neither oil nor dye, it docs not soil white
cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving
it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
