AT.ts.MA removes and prevents dandruff,
which is the result of a languid, unhealthy
condition of the surface vessels of the scalp—
a premonitory symptom of the falling off of
the hair. A daily application of the Alisma,
with a free use of the brush, will soon free the
h'-ad from dirt and dandruff.
REOPENING. —Mt. Smith M. E. Church hav

for the worship of God, next Sabbath (Dec.
12th), morning, at 10} o'clock. Several
ministers from a distance are expected to be
present. Ministers and people of neighbor
ing charges are respectfully invited.
Ist THE HARNESS. —Deputy Sheriff John A.
Cessna is already in the harness, doing things
in a very business like manner. John's father
was Sheriff some years ago, and consequently
John learned the run of the machine, and
now takes hold of the reins with no embar
rassment at all. Being a clever, obliging
young man, he will make an efficient officer.
THE RACE OF PROPHETS. —That the proph
ets are not all dead yet is a fact, though it
may be mooted by some. No better evidence
of this is needed than the fact that quite a
number of wise people bare already discover
ed ibat we are going to have a hard winter,
though there have not been more than two
months of unseasonably cold weather yet.
Isn't that something like prophecy ?
LIKE AT DUDLEY. —The Catholic chorch
near Dudley, this county, was totally des
troyed by fire on Sunday last. The loss is es
timated at over S7OOO. Insured SSOOO.
'he pastoral residence, adjoining the
<harch, was saved only by almost super
■' uman efforts, but the furniture therein was
damaged to a very considerable extent. We
have not learned how the fire originated.—
Huntingdon Globe.
DUTCH CORKER CBIVAI.KY.—A few days
ago & high toned, hot blooded, cbivalric genv
tleman, whose name we will not mention at
j present, had a "private difference," with an
other gentlemen, which eventually led to a
duellistic challenge, the substance of which
we will give as near as we can. though tee
didn't see the genuine document. It TUOB
something like the following:
BEDFORD CO. . Valley, )
Nov. —, 1861>. j
Jlr. : I hereby challenge you to fight
me a duel on day at at o'clock.
, We will use Colt's or Reminger's revolvers,
(six shooters) —distance to be twenty paces.
Each one to toe the score and shcot till all
the bairels are empty, nnless one of us falls,
in which case, if 1 fall 1 will forgive you, and
if you fail, you will forgive me.
Yours, Ac. .
P. S. \ou can have your friends on the
ground, and I will have mine.
Truly Bedford is a place of note, though
she has no railroads, no furnaces, no manu
factories, nor theatre. Pugilism iu all its pha
ses is exhibited on every public occasion.
Camp-meetings and even funerals are not ex
empt from these feats or th ? pugnacious in
dividuals. The list of causes at our last Quar
ter Sessions will compete with the lowest pre
cincts of New York, Chicago or St. Louis.
And now, the duellist, a true son of Demo
cratic Thunder, springs up in our midst, to
the terror of a fellow citizeu who thus far is
disinclined to enter the field. Enough to
excite jealousy in France, were it not that the
hero has totally disregarded all the rules of
that honorable field, such as choosing the
"weepins," Ac.
Now that the war is over, can't we have
peace and quiet? Or are there a few brave
soldiers who, having served their country in
her hour of trouble (in a horn), are still fascin
ated by the report of the gun and smell of
powder, and at every altercation presume
their opponents rebs, and open a fierce attack
at once. If so, forward march.
SBXDJSG LETTERS OUTSIDE THE MAIT..— By
a recent decision of the Post Office Depart
ment, "communications may be sent outside
the mail, if enclosed in stamped envelopes
(and being equal in value and amount in rates
of postage to which such letters would be lia
ble if sent by mail), and properly sealed so
that such letters cannot be taken therefrom
without tearing or destroying such envelope,
and the same duly directed and addressed,
aud the date of said letter on the envelope:
and it is not required that such letters and
envelopes be handed to the postmaster at the
point of destination. It is the duty of route
agents to receive letters written after the mail

PITTSBURGH AND COXXELI.SVII.LE IiAILROAD.
—Yesterday morning at ten o'clock an extra
train on the Pittsburgh and Conttellsville
Railroad took out a force of Canadians, im
ported by the company to work on the
eastern extension of the road, principally on
the Sand Patch lunuel. They arrived in the
city on Saturday, and during Saturday night
j slept on the floor of the waiting rooms at the
depot. Some of them were accompained by
their children, but none of them had their
wives with them. President Hugart con
fidently expects that the road will be com
pleted and in full running order betfceen this
city and Baltimore in one year from this time.
—Pitts. Ere. Chron., Nov. 22.
A THANKFUL EDITOR.— The editor of the
Mantorviile Express was in good condition to
enjoy His sermon for the day
commences thus : To-day (Thursday) is
Thanksgiving. For our part we are always
thankful. Blessed as we are with a com
fortable house, in our wife's name, and five
children in oar joint names, with the wood
bouse full of well seasoned maple stove-wood,
with potatoes and cabbage in the cellar in
abundance, with no cares of the probable
office, with malice toward none and love for
all—the ladies in particular—with health and
happiness, why shouldn't we always be thank
ful?
THE PAVEMENTS.— On Monday last, we were
visited with a snow of some three inches in
depth. On about three-fourths of the pave
ments of the town the greater portion of the
snow still lies, making ice endangering
the life or limbs of every one who ventures
on it and makiug mud and causing wet
feet, whenever it thaws. Will not our coun
cil pvss and enforce an ordinance compelling
property holders to remove snow within a
limited time, so our people can walk the
streets with comfort and safety ?
FLITTING. —WiIIiam Keyeer, Esq., the new
ly elected Sheriff, on Tuesday last moved his
family from Benna Vista to Bedford which he
intends making his home for a period of three
years at least. Mr. Keyser is a clever, social,
enterprising business man, and we are glad to
welcome him as a citizen of our town, and
the only objection we have to him, is his pol
itics. We have no doubt at all but that he
will make a good officer and that in the per
formance of his duties as Sheriff, he will
know no party.
BADLY NEEDED. —A pavement is badly
needed in front of Mr. Wm. Scbaeffer's in
Juliana street. The pavement was taken up
for the purpose of giading and bad weather
has prevented the re-laying of it. It is not
likely that it will be possible to re lay it now
before Spring. We therefore hope the pro
prietors or the borough council will take
measures to have it planked or repaired in
some way so as to enable pedestrians to pass
without wading knee-deep through tnud.
BUY of the men who advertise. Always
examine your newspaper and buy of the larg
est advertiser. You maybe quite sure that
the man who don't advertise, sells but little
and must have large profits on that little to
enable him to live, while he who advertises
largely also makes large sales, and is conse
quently able to sell bis goods at a very reas
onable profit. This is an unfailing rale that
purchasers will do well to remember.
W e have just received a neatly printed copy
of the "Proceedings of the Chester County
Teachers' Institute," held at West Chester,
Pa., during the week commencing Oct., 2orti,
1869. The pamphlet contains 72 pages. A
lectore by Theodore Tilton, of New Y'ork,
and one by Dr. 1. I. Hants, the Arctic Ex
plorer, are alone worth the price of the book;
it contains besides, several Essays in full,
and a complete list of all the teachers in the
county. Any teacher desiring a copy can ob
tain it, by mail, by remitting 25 cents to
GEORGE F. WORRELL, West Chester, Pa.
Ws would call the particular attention of
readers to the advertisement of the American
Knitting Machine Co. They offer a splendid
opportunity to almost all classes to make
money ; particularly Farmers, who can get a
great deal more for their wool by having one
of these Machine in the house, and knitting
their wool into stockings, Ac.
1 THE BEST ASK CHEAPEST ORGANS. —An
■ illustration of the advantages of a large pro
■ duction of any article, enabling the manufac
turer to avail himself of the aid of machinery
and most complete division of labor, and so
to produce the best work at lowest coat, is
afforded by what the MASON A II AM LIN
ORGAN CO. are now doing. It is well
known that the Cabinet Organs of their man
ufacture hare for 6ome time enjoyed the
reputation of being the best in the world ;
and the demand for them from ail countries
has so increased that the Company have now
occasion to produce one hundred and fifly
organs per week.
This has enabled them to introduce a varie
ty of ingenious machinery lor the production
of the various parts of the instruments, by
which they get increased perfection in their
work, and make a considerable saving in the
cost. It is a part of their system to sell al
ways at least remunerative profi', depending
on increased amount of business for a satis
factory result to themselves. Accordingly,
they have recently reduced prices, and it is
said, are now selling their famous organs at
even less than it costs a small maker to pro
duce inferior instruments. The public are
thus the gainers by getting the best article at
less than, without such advantages, they
would have to pay for inferior work. This
Company will not make the so-called "cheap"
organs at any price. All their work is of the
very best.
Ir the ladies hut knew what thousands of j
them are constantly relating to us, we candid- ;
ly believe one half of the weakness, prostra- 1
tion aad distress experienced by them would !
vauisb. James Marsh, Ksq., 160 West Mtli
St., N. V., says, "he has three children, the |
Grst two are weak and puny, his wife having :
been unable to nurse or attend them, but she '
has taken PLANTATION BITTERS for the last
two years, and has a child now eighteen
months old which she ha 3 nursed and reared ;
herself, and both are hearty, saucy and well.
The article is invaluable to mothers," Ac.
Such evidence might be continued for a ,
volume. The best evideuce is to try them. '
They speak for themselves. Persons of
sedentary habits troubled with weakness,
lassitude palpitation of the heart, lack of ap- ,
petite, distress after eating, torpid liver,
constipation, diabetes, Ac., will find speedy j
relief through these Bitters.
THE Universal cry, "What shall I buy for ,
Holiday Presents" can be answered best by
Parker A Co., 08 A 100 Summer St., Boston, !
who hare an immense variety of Holiday and
useful articles, such as all kinds of Fancy,
Boxes, Writing Desks, Glove Boxes, Albums \
in Morocco aod Gilt and Velvet bindings, j
real Morocco Shopping B. gs, Furnished Ret
icules, Silver Plated Ware, and Cutlery of all
descriptions, Jewelry imitations of the latest
styles of solid gold, wfcich cannot be distin
guished from the real, Ac., Ac., and hundreds
ot the latest and most entertaining Books.
Their stock contains almost everything nec
essary to stipp'y the wants and gratify the
tastes of everybody, and they claim that their
superior facilities lor buying these goods en
ables them to sell at very much under the
regular prices paid for such articles. They
want Agents everywhere, to whom they offer
most liberal inducements. We call attention
to their advertiesment in another column.

2. THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,

appeals to a wider range of sympathies and a

PITTSBURGH COMMERCIAL.
DAILY AND WEEKLY.—IB7O
As a thorough newspaper, sparing neither la
bor nor expenses to lurnish the fullest and most
reliable intelligence ; as the fearless, consistent,
and persistent opponent of corruption in office
and advocate of Honesty, Economy, Retrench
ment anu Reform in public affairs; as the sworn
foe of "Rings" and every description cf dishonest
combination,—just as ready to expose their prac
tices in the Republican as Democratic party, and
even more eo, because it holds that a party that
will cast oat offenders of tbla description entitles
itself to the confidence ef the people—as an Inde
pendent Republican journal, the advocate of the
rights and interests of the people,—THE PITTS
at'ROH COMMERCIAL needs no new introduction to
the reading public.
IT IS A PROGRESSIVE PAPER, and keeps
up in the march of improvement and the develop
ment of ideas. Thoroughly alive to everything
that is valuable or interesting, it identifies itself
at once and heartily with whatever seems calcu
lated to improve mankind and eicvate the stand
ard of intelligrnoe and morality. As a Republi
can journal of the strictest sect, it deals with
noliticai questions with an far nest wish to gel at
tbo truth and place only good and capable men in
ofli'-e.
IT IS A PEOPLE'S PAPER, and relies on
their support and good opinion rather tbau the
favors of political leaders. Nor has it done so in
vain. Its independent course---more especially
in denouncing legislative corruption and expos
ing the practices of thieves in office- -has made
it the favorite of the masses and the feared of
dishonest aspirants and debauched party leaders.
Of the reputation it has earned in this respect it
is riffcereiy proud ; and it wishes no different
standing in the field of jonrnalism in this rtgard
than a discriminating public promptly accord to
It. To prove faithful to their confidence and
good opinion will be its constant endeavor.
IT IS A LIVE PAPER, and ranks with the
loading journals which arc thoroughly awake to
all that is going on. Its News Department is al
ways fresh and full. Its editorials are written
with purpose in view. Its Market Reports and
Commcrcal News gatherings are meant to supply
the most exacting demands of the business public.
IT IS A PROSPEROUS AND GROWING PA
PI.R, having from the start gone ahead, outstrip
ping older occupants of the field of journalism ;
and it has attained to a prosperity and come to
exert an influlnce second to no paper in the
State. That it has fairly won the rank of the
first paper in Pennsylvania is the verdict of news
paper readers in general.
IT IS A PAPER OF INFLUENCE, it being
read more generally than any ether Pittsburgh
paper by the bnstuess, professional and thinking
classes. It is always found where the latest and
fullest news is sought, and an independent paper
prised,---in Banking llouees, Gountiag Rooms
and the Family Circle, where it is welcomed as a
business and intellectual necessity, and where its
influence is oonstant and increasing.
ITS PAST COURSE IS ITS BEST RECOM
MEXDATION, and it is felt that there is no nec
essity for indulging in new proftssions or making
fresh promises. It means, while adhering to its
standard J0 politics and morals, to improve as it
progresses, and omit nothing that will add to its
strength or increase its usefulness.
THE NEXT YEAR.
Tnv. COMMERCIAL enters on another year strong
and hopeful, and with a deliberate purpose con
sistent with what b&s been said above. And it
docs not hesitate to ask the co-operation of all
who approve of that purpose. No hesitation is
felt in saying that it desires this support in in
cieasing its circulation and enlarging the sphere
of its usefulness. The season is at hand when
Congress and the Legislature will be in session,
and stirring events at Both the National and
State Capital will he transpiring. The measures
of the splendid administration of General Grant
will soon be before the country—embracing ques
tions of tho deepest interest to every rtadt-r and
tax-payer. The Slate Legislature, too, will pre
sent matters of iulereet. Abroad, the signs arc
animating; and at home in the field of politics,
popular movements relating to education end reli
gious questions are appearing, of which no one
should permit himself to be ignorant, and con
cerning which al! is essential to be known will be
the aim of the COMMERCIAL to give.

J_JARPER"S BAZAR.
"A repository of Fashion, Pleasure and In
struction. "
A supplement containing numerous full-sixed
palems of useful articles accompanies the paper
every fortnight, and occasionally an elegant
Colored Fashion Plate.
HARPERS BAEAR contains 16 folio pages of the
sire of HARPER'S WEEKLY, printed on superfine
calender paper, and is published Weekly.
Critical A'otice* of the Crete
HARPER'S BAEAR contains, besides picture.-,
patterns, etc., a variety of matter of especial use
and interest to the family; articles on health,
dress, and housekeeping in all its branches; its
cditofial matter is specially adapted to the circle
it is intended to interest aud instruct ; and it has,
besides, good stories and literary matter of merit*
It is not surprising that the journal, with such
features, has achieved in a short time an immense
success; for something of its kind was desired in
thousands of families, and its publishers have
filled the demand. The young lady who buys a
single number or HARPER'S BAZAR is made a sub
scriber for life.— Netc York Evening Poet.
The BAZAR is excellent. Like all the Periodi
cals which the Harpers Publish, it is almost
ideally well edited, and the class of readers for
whom it is intended—the mothers and daughters
in average families—can not but profit by its
good sense and good taste, which, we have no
doubt, are to-dy making very many homes hap
j pier than they inay have been before the woman
| began taking lessons in personal and household
and social management from this good-natured
mentor. — The Ant ion.
It has the merit of being sensible, of convey ing
instructions, of giving excellent patterns in every
department, and of being well stocked with good
reading matter.— Watchman and Reficctor.

The most popular Monthly in the World.—Neie

Wc must refer in terms of eulogy to the high
tone ami varied excellence of HARPERS MAGA
ZIXE—a journal with a monthly circulation of
about 120,000 copies—in whose pages are to be
found seme of the choicest light and general
reading of the day. We apeak of this work as an
evidence of the culture of the American people;
and the popularity it has acquired is merited.
Each number contains fully 144 pages of reading
matter, appropriately illustrated with good wood
cuts ; and it ccmbines in itself the racy monthly
and the more philosophical quarterly, blended
with the best features of the daily journal. It
has great power in the dissemination of a love of
pure literature.—THPßXEß'S Guide to American
Literature, London.
It is cue of the wonders of journalism—the edi
torial management of HARPER'S. • • • All the
periodicals which the Harpers publish are almost
ideally well edited.— The Motion jf. Y.

simple faqj that it meets precisely the popular
taste, furnishing a variety of pleasing and in
