SALE OF FARM. —On the Ith of December last, Jacob Fetter Esq., sold bis farm in Bed ford twp., to Joseph Sill Esq., of Union twp., for $8,600. THE attention of parties in want of a good farm is called to the advertisement of Henry Hershberger in our advertising columns this week. A fair trial only is needed to convince the most skeptical, that Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer will accomplish all tbat is claimed for it. "UNDER a distinguished professor, and with the best Chickering pianos, the pupils of Hollidavsburg Seminary enjoy special advan tages in music. ANTELOPES.— One day last week Messrs. Jacob Barnhart and Jacob Bolinger each re ceived an antelope by express, which was sent by some of their friends at Antelope station, Omaha. TRUE success results from true merit. Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer is placed before the public, resting solely on its own merits. Its success is already indisputa ble. Go to the INQUIRER Book Store for 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 harm done if you don't buy. WE always feel an interest in the welfare of the ladies, and are pained to see so many looking rle, languid and unhealthy. We are satisfied this might be remedied if they would only use the Constitution Bitters. They would goon bring the bloom of health to your cheeks, if used according to directions. WHO WANTS A SEWING MACHINE ?—We have a new $55,00 Grover and Baker sewing machine which we will dispose of on easy terms to any one who wants a good machine: and who does not want a good sewing ma chine ?

As ESTABLISH EH REMEDY. —Brown's Bron chaii Troches are widely known as an estab* lished remedy for Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Hoarseness, and other troubles of the Throat and Lungs. Their good reputation and ex tensive use has brought out imitations, rep resented to be the same. Obtain only "Brown's Bronchail Troches." BORNEO OCT. —We regret to learn that the office of the Fulton Democrat, in McConnels burg, was entirely destroyed by fire on the morning of the 23rd insf The fi r e is sup posed to have originated from a pile of ashes under the office. Almost everything was burnt. The forms were on the press, almost ready to go to work, and went down with the press. The proprietor, Smith Robinson, has our sincere sympathy in his loss. Although be prints wretchedly bad politics, he is a clever fellow, and we hope he. may soon get his office re fitted.— Star and Sentinel. AYES A AMERICAS* ALMANAC, for the new year, has arrived for delivery gratis by to all who call for it. This little annual has the largest circulation of any book in the world, made by the fact that it furnishes the best medical advice which is available to the people—enables them to determine what 1 their complaints are and how to cure them. It contains the startling announcement of the conflagration of a world, or the combustion of one of the stars in the firmament with all its attendant planets. LIST of unclaimed letters remaining in the Post office in Bedford, on the Ist of January, which will be sent to tbe dead letter office on the Ist of February next, if not called for previous to that time: Allen Hellen Miss Jackson I.evina Mrs. Cecil H.

J IT is estimated that seven-tenths of all adult ailments proceed from a diseased and torpid liver. The biliary secretions of the liver overflowing into the stomach, poison the entire system, and exhibit tbe above symp toms. After a long re search, we are able to present the most remarkable cure for these horrid nightmare of diseases the world has ever produced. Within one year over six hundred and forty thousand persons have taken PLANTATION BITTERS, and not an iu stai.ee of complaint has come to our knowl- j edge. It is the most effectual tonic and agreeable stimulant, suited to all conditions j of life. Inquire of your Druggists in regard! to it. SAB3ATII SCHOOLS. —On Friday Evening I Dec. 24th, the Lutheran Sabbath School held i a Jnbilee in the church, and an address was j delivered by J. A. Tomlinson. On Sabbath afternoon, the M. E. Sabbath I School held a Jubilee in their church, the exercises consisting of singing, speeches, ! recitations, readings und dialogues by the ; younger children, very appropriate to the j occasion. On Wednesday evening following, ; the school gave an ice cream and oyster festi j va! in the "little brick schoolhouse'' on Pitt St., and realized a handsome sum which we believe is to be appropriated to re- 1 pienishing the library. SHALL oca COMMUNICATION BE err OFF'; — The turnpike bridge at the narrows is not yet begun though we had the promise that it would ba finished by the first of January. It was somewhat delayed by a disappointment J in the delivery of lumber to tbe contractors, \ but we bardiy think that it should have j made so great a delay. The road by the I Dunniugs creek bridge is now almost impas sible and tbe bridge itself will scarcely eu dure the travel and heavy hauling that passes over it continually, until Spring; in fact we would not be surprised to hear of it breaking down at any time. We Lope the turnpike company will push forward their bridge with the utmost dispatch as our communication j with the outside world may be suddenly cut off at any time. Nov LI. AND INTERESTING INVENTION. — A i new Educational Invention, —* Eastman's Penman's Assistant," —is now creating no little sensation among Pupils, Educators and Business Writers. It has been used in the Penmanship Department of Eastman College for some time, and although recently given to the public it is meeting with an unpre j cedenteu sale. It is a novel, beautiful ■ instrument, so constructed as to change the i stiff cramped hand of an adult into an easy flowing one, and compels the pupil to acquire at once correct habits of position, movement, Ac., thus lessening the labor of teacher, and saving years of severe application to the pupil. It is an admirable Holiday Present, and is sold in a case, complete, for $1.50. Agents for its introduction and sale are wanted. Circulars describing the invention may be had by addressing Prof. EASTMAN, i Poughkeepsie, N. Y. THE HOLlDAYS. —Christmas was duly oh- I served by the citizens of our town. All stores i and business houses were closed. Tbe wel come dinners and festivities iucident to tbe day were generally indulged in. As sleigh ing was pretty good, every rig in town was oot, keeping up a continuous jingle of tbe merry bells from morning till late at night. About 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the Silver Cornet Band, mounted on a sled drawn by a span of spirited animals, entered the field, and discoursed some of their best music, as they passed through the principal streets. As they had not been out for some time, their appearance created quite a stir, showing that their music and their endeavors to make a merry Christmas were fuily appreciated. New Year's dav was not kept as a holiday, though we have heard of a number of mon strous turkeys tbat were consumed in our vicinity. The Bedford fantaatics were out on dress parade, mounted, and made several tours through the streets, creating quite an excitement for the time. After their exit, business was the word. DRTY TO CREDITORS.—A merchant is not honest if he endangers the loss of an smount of property, which, if lost by tire, or other wise, would disable him from paying his debts. It is unjust not to insure. Perhaps the majority of uninsured traders, if their homes and goods were burnt, wculd be una ble to pay their creditors. The injustice con sists. not in the actual loss which may be in flicted, but in endangering the infliction of the loss. There are but two ways in which, under such circumstances, the claims of rec titude can be satisfied: one is by insuring the property, and the other by telling its actual owner that it will be endangered, and leaving him to incur the risk—or not, as he pleases. If such is the value of insurance what must be the character of the company? For this reason insure in a company like the MTXA of Hartford, Connecticut, which has over srvs MILLION'S DOLLARS capital. Small companies invariably fail. Ont of the thousands ol companies in the country, not fifty are over twenty years of age—all the rest have failed. Then go to the which has stood lor fifty years and is stronger to-day than ever. M. A. POIKTS, Agent .-Etna In*. Co. Bedford, t'a.

LITERARY. —We are informed by a friend, that the young men of South SVoodberry twp. organized a debating club in Pattonsville on Friday evening last, and elected tbe follow ing corps of officers: President, J. B. Fluck; \ . President, D. B. Armstrong; Secretary, •I. S. Biddle, and Treasurer, J. B. Butts. Tbe question, "Resolved that the United States should recognize the icdcpender.ee of Cuba, was discussed in the affirmative by Messrs. Dittmer, Armstrong, Riddle, Boner and Carpenter, and in the negative by Messrs* Huck, Zook, Butts and Lingenfelter,. De cision in favor of affirmative. The question for discussion this, Friday, eveuing is, "Re solved that women should have the right to vote." All persons interested in the cause of education are respectfully invited to attend. We are very glad indeed to see this move in South Woodberry. She has always been blessed with health and wealth, and to her honor, has always taken a firm stand in favor of education, and we have no doubt but that i it will meet with entire success. AN ITEM FOR PARENTS, YOUNG MEN AND 1 BOYS.— Prof. Eastman, the founder of the | celebrated Business College at Poughkeepsie, N. Y., offers superior advantages to those who attend his Institution this winter or the coming year. He positively assertß that he will make the timeand money spent there the best investment of their lives. He proposes to prove this (to all who will address him for the College Directory.) and also to convince them that bis original and pre eminent Course of Practical Training is the best ever devised for those preparing for active, successful life; and his efforts the most effective in providing situations for graduates. The short prescri bed Course can be completed in three months, I at a total expense for board and tuition fee of one hundred dollars. Full information can be had by addressing 11. G. EASTMAN, LL. IX. Poughkeepsie, N. Y. | ONCE MORE. —As tbe City Fathers seem to be hibernating, we feel disposed to make a last appeal to our citizens. Our pavements during holiday week, especially during tbe rain, were in such a condition, that no one, unless protected by gum boots aud prepared to wade, had any business to venture upon tbe streets. We bve ap pealed to the City Fathers to abate the nui sance of sloppy, slush-and-snow covered pavements, but in vain ; they are either of fenders against the law of cleanliness them selves or too indifferent to the good name and general health of the town to interfere. Now we appeal to the citizens. There is per haps no better criterion of the general char acter of the occupants of a house than the appuarance of the front yard and pavements, aud if we wish to preserve our reputation of a neat and tidy people it is high time to go to work and clean off snow, ice and slush. In front of half the houses in town the snow and ice lie until they melt away, and every passer by runs the risk of breaking his neck in cold weather, or catching his death of cold from wet feet in soft weather. It is a mailer of great consequence to all. It in volves the health of the whole community and the reputation of our town for general cleanliness and neatness. If every one will just muster enough industry to keep his own pavement decently clean, we can manage tbe whole matter independent of our hibernating council. Books anit Periodica is.

DKMOREST'S YOUNG AMERICA.— The Janu ary number of this beautiful Juvenile Monthly must prove a real prize to all the boys and girls securing it.

Every Saturday begins the new year with a change; from its former plainness it now as pires to become the first of Illustrated Amer ican Journals and in this it will at once be a formidable rival of the Harper illustrated publications. What Field & Osgood under take to do they always do well ; accordinely we find the initial number of Every Saturday, the size of Harper's weekly, with three full page illustrations. We confess that we are partial to the old form of Every Saturday as more convenient in size and more literary in appearance. As it is changed, we accept the change, confident that Fields & Osgood will make and keep it the leading illustrated liter ary magazine of the country and hoping to learn to like it as well in its new dress as we did in its old.

Does not reason tell us that judicious stimulation is required. To resort to violent purgation in such a ease is as absurd as it would be to bleed a starving man. Yet it is ' done every day. Yes, this stupid and un philosophical practice is continued in the teeth of the great fact that physical weakness, with all the nervous disturbances that ac i company it. is more certainly and rapidly re lieved by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters than by any other medicine at present known. It >s true that general debility is often attended with torpidity or irregularity of the bowels, and that this symptom must not be over ; looked. But while the discharge of the waste matter of the system is expedited or regu lated, its rigor must be recniiled. The Bit ters do both. They combine aperient and anti-bilious properties, with extraordinary ! tonic power. Even while removing ob strut-lions from tbe bowels, tbev tons and in vigorate those organs. Through tbe stomach, upon which the great vegetable specific acts directly, it gives a healthy and permanent im petus to every enfeebled function. Digestion is facilitated, the faltering circulation regu lated, the blood reinforced with a new acces sion of tbe alimentary principle, the nerves braced, and all the dormant powers of the system roused into healthy action; not spasmodically, as would be tbe case if a mere stimulant were administered, but for a con tinuance. It is in this way that such ex traordinary changes are wrought in tbe con dition of the feeble, emaciated and nervous invalids by tbe use of this wonderful cor rective, alterative and tonic. Let common sense decide between such a preparation and a prostrating cathartic supplemented by a poisonous astringent like strychnine or qui ilia.

That standing firm by the Bible truths, she cannot, she dare not take Elizabeth Cady Stanton as her type of a true wo man. He further argued that wher ever a teacher found under his care natural talents for special branches of study, he should give such the high est training. In short, he believed in the true woman living, loving and ever abiding in the sphere marked out for her by her Creator. Throughout the entire lecture the Prof, held his audi ence as one man ; thus showing the in terest all took in the discourse. Morning Session, Dec. 29.

Sec'v. i 1 congratulate the teachers who were present with us during this session of the County Institute. We have not been disappointed. In point of num ber enrolled ; regularity of attendance, and willingness on the part of our teachers to work whenever called up on. our meetings have been the most successful ever held in the county. Not a single teacher, placed on duty by the cominitteeon programme,failed. With but few exceptions, all were present at roll call and remained in session until the hour for adjourning, thus showing their interest in the work. Twenty out of the twenty-seven dis tricts in the county, were represented. Of these, Bedford Bor., Bedford tp., Broad Top, Colerain, Coaldale, Liber ty, St. Clairsviile, Snake Spring and Saston, had all their teachers present. Some had their time allowed them; others who were In attendance the whole week were not allowed a single day. We would here again repeat, what lias been embodied in a resolu tion, that all directors who had their teachers here in convention, should grant them the number of days pres ent. The roll has been carefully pre pared, and the attendance accurately kept, so that directors may know the exact number of days each one attend ed. We feel sure that some good must result to the schools through this con vention, and it is not asking too much when we call upon directors to reward their teachers for time spent here in further preparation for the work in the school room. The essays, orations and lectures pre pared by the teachers showed marked improvement over those of previous years. Among others, we recall with pleasure the oration, on the theme: "Stand like the Anvil," by our talen ted young townsman, John 11. Jordan. For force of diction and for true merit, the production had no superior on the programme. The young orator warm ing with his subject, grew at times, truly eloquent. We predict for him in his newly chosen profession a brilliant future. In conclusion, we return thanks to all parties who labored with us during the past week. H. W. FISHER, Co. Supt. MARKETS.

KIM> I'ai roxs : AH bail! once mora the Carrier Boy Attunes his harp to gong ; May each vibrating chord be strikes The dulcet strain prolong: He comes with gladness in his steps, And skips along the way To wish his patrons, one and all, A Happy New-Year's Day! 'TiB just a year ago, to-day, Since we together met; Our hearts were happy then, as now, O'er cares we did not fret, So let us on this joyous morn, Be equally as gay— Then here's to patrons, one and all, A Happy New-Year's Day! The year just closed auspicious was, Abundance crowned its flight; The waving grain, the tempting fruits Met everywhere the sight: The plenteous board ; abounding health Have blessed us all the way— So here's to patrons, one aud all, A Happy New-Year's Day! : 'Tis true we've bad some things to mar The pleasures we have had, But the cup of lite is ever mixed With good things and with bad : Our streets have been in horrid plight: Our hydrants dry, they say. But notwithstanding a!i of this — Here's a Happy New-Year's Day ! 'Tis queer that whiist we've waded mud, And soiled our dainty (?) feet, That water! water! is the cry Be echoed on the street. Strange anomaly! we re icel; we're dry, But still we will be gay, So here's to patrons, one and all, A Happy New-Year's Day ! Oh City Fathers ! where are ye? Where do you hide your faces? Can you rest easy when such things Your native town disgraces? Gird up yonr loins! and go to work, And for you we'll ever pray, And gladly shout for one and all, A Happy New-Year's Day ! Again, we've had some "broken banks!" In money quite a smash, But 'midst the din dissolving them We have withstood the crash ; To some, perhaps, 'tis dreadful quite : To some it does not "pay"— But here's again, to one and all, A Happy New-Year's Day! So much for local matters—let us turn To affairs about the nation, Or things in general "turning up" Within this broad creation. The " boundless Universe" we grasp; There's nothing in the way— So here's again to patrons all, A Happy New-Year's Day ! The President's Message—what of it? 'Tis sound as well as terse 'Tis first rate —ab'e —excellent! But would scarcely suit for verse : He talks of things affecting us As a Statesman only may, Then here's to Grant—to patrons all, A Happy New Year's Day ! Of Cuba now I'll say a word- Most nobly has she fought: We hope she'll get " beiligereut rights " As certainly she ought: The Spanish yoke she's thrown off, And from her cast away— Then here's for struggling Cuba A Happy New-Year's Day ! In Utah there is something up : Old Brigbam, the old cuss, 'Tis shrewdly thought, is fully beut On " kicking up a muss, " But if he does we'll thrash him well, And take his wives away — But here's to Brig and all his " frows " A Happy New-Year's Day ! But here I'll wind this medley up Lest I your patience tire : I hope that you, in reading it, Have seen much to admire ; And I will feel much gratitude If you'll fork o'er some pay, And in Stentorian tones I'll shout, A Happy New-Year's Day!

XX FUR PURIFYING THE BLOOD, Perhaps no one medicine is -o universally re quired by everybody as cathartic, nor was ever anv befiire so universally adoptod into use. in every country and among all classes, as this mild but efficient purgative PTLL. The obvious rea son is, that it is a more reliable and far more ef fectual remedy than any other. Those who have tried it, know that it cured tbem ; those who have rot, know that it cures their neighbors and friende, and all know that what it does once it does al ways—that it never fails through any fault or neglect of its composition. We have thousands upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable cures of the following complaints, but such cures are known in every neighborhood, and we need not publish them. Adapted to all ages and con ditions in all climates ; containing neither calo mel or anv deleterious drug, they may be taken with safety by anybody. Then sugar coating preserves them ever fresh and makes them pleas act to late, while being purely vegetable no harm can rise from their use in any quantity. They operate by their powerful influence on the internal viseera to purify the blood and stimu late it into healthy action---remove the obstruc tions of the stomach, bowl-, liver, and other or gans of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such derangements as art the first origin of dis ease. Slinnte -iirec ions are given in the wrapper on the box, for the following complaints, which these PILLS rapidly cure:—- For DYSPEPSIA or INDIGESTION, LIST LESSNESB. LANGUOR and LOSS OF APPE TITE, they should be taken moderately to stim ulate the stomach and restore its healthy tone and actior. For I.IVER COMPLAINT and iu various symptoms. BILIOUS HEADACHE, SICK HEACACIIE, JAUNDICE or GREEN SICK NESS, BILIOUS COLIC A BILIOUS FEVERS, they should be judiciously taken for each case, to correct the diseased action or remove the obstruc tions which cause it. For DYSENTERY or DIARRHCBA, but one mild dose is generally required. For RHEUM ATDM, GOUT, GRAVEL, PAL FIXATION OF THE HEART, PAIN IN THE SIDE, BACK and LOINS, they should be con tinuously taken, as required, to change the dis eased action of the system. With such change those complaints disappear. For DROPSY and DROPSICAL SWELLINGS they should be taken in large and frequent doses to pro-lore the effect of a drastic purge. For SUPPRESSION a large dose should be ta ken as it produces the desired effect by sympathy. As a DINNER PILL, take one or two PILLS to promote digestion and relieve the stomach. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and bowel? into he .'thy action, restores the appetite, and invigorates the system. Hence it is often advantageous where no serious derangement ex ists. One who feels tolerably well, often finds tbat a dose of these Pills makes hint feel decided ly better, from their cleansing and renovating cf f-ct on the digestive apparatus. DR. J. C.
