Ssow EXTRAORDIVARY.— February 2nd, Can
dlf- in as or Ground hog day wa* unusually
bright and the weather sages predicted six
weeks of rough cold weather. A the tradi
' Uon rung, the ground hog comes out of hi*
winter quarters on that day and if the weath
er is cloudy, he knows that winter i* over,
hot if it ia bright so that he can see his shad
ow, he knows that there will be cold weather
j and at ouce returns to his winter quarter* for
j six weeks. For several day* following the
| 2nd, the weather was unusually fine and for
! once it was thought the ground hog bad blun
dered. but Monday evening the sky was over
cast with heavy clouds and
"A chill no coat, however stout.
Of homespun stuff" could quite shut out,"'
prevaded the air, and
''The coming of the snow storm told,"
! By ten o'clock snow began to fall, and on
I Tuesday morning the snow was 22 inches
deep at daylight and at noon it had reached
ihe extraordinary depth of 27 inches. This
I is the deepest snow that has fallen ia Ibis
section for many years, and oar young frinds
-re anticipating fine sleighing in which we
hope they will be fully gratified.
The snow is said to be the deepest that has
fallen at one time in this section for 30 years.
Reports from the surrounding country say it
is over three feet deep in some places. The
telegraph, reports but four inches of snow at
Pittsburg, six inches at Johnstown and fif
teen inches at McConnellsburg and Chambers
burg.
THE Spirit of Insurance Is finellj illustrated
in the following language of tbe French
jurists at tbe close of their report to the
Council of State, in the Code of Commerce,
on the science of insurance:.
"Insurance may justly be deemed one of
the noblest creations of human genius.
From a lofty height it surveys and protects
tbe commerce of the world. It scans the
heavens: it consults the seasons; it interro
gates the ocean, and regardless of its terrors
or caprice, defines its perils and circumscribe
its storms. It extends its cares to every part
of the habitable globe, studies the usage of I
every nation, explores every coast, and sounds
every harbor.
"To the science of politics it directs a
sleepless attention : it enters the council of
monarch*, watches the deliberation, of s'ates
men, weighs their motives, and penetrates
their designs. Founding on these vast ma
terials its skillful calculations, secure of the
result, it then addresses the hesitating mer
chant. Dismiss your anxiety and fears;
these ere misfortunes that humanity may de
plore, but cannot prevent or alleviate, sncb
are not tbe disasters vou dread to enconnter.
Trust in me, and they shall not reach you.
Summon all your resources, put forth all
your skill, and with unfaltering courage pur
sne your adventures. Succeed, and your
riches are enlarged: fail, ar.d they shall not be
diminished. My wealth shall supply your
loss. Rely on me, and for your sake, at my
bidding, the arm of ycur enemies shall be
paralyzed, and the dangers of the ocean or
the flaming pile cease to exist.
"The merchant listens and obeys, and is re'
warded. Thousands, tempted by his success,
follow his example. Those whom it had
long separated the ocean now unites. The
quarters of tbe world approach each other,
and are bound by the permanent ties cf
mutual interest and mutual benefit."
Any one desirous of insuring in first-class i
Companies can not do better than to take a !
risk in the .ETNA of Hartford, or the NIAGARA !
of New York. M. A. POINTS, Agent,

BEDFORD, Feb. 8, 1870. — Messrs. Editors:
Will you allow u3 a little space to Dotice the
nuptial festivities of our Iriend D. S. Elliott, 1
Esq., which occurred in Bloody Run, on the
evening of the third ult. In the language of j
another it was a "decided success." The :
lucky fellow was declared duly elected ac
cordiug to law, and tbe occasion was one of
great rejoicing throughout the community.
The marriage ceremonies were conducted in
the M. E. Church, at 71 P. M., by the Rev.
G. W. \ an I i-ssen. in the presence of a large
and attentive audience. After the rites were
righted, the bride and groom, together with
about one hundred and sixty guests, repaired
to the residence of the bride's father, Mr. Jo
siah Harris, and betook of a most exquisite'
and delicious feast. Tbe spacious building j
was thrown open from roof to cellar and the j
windows were illuminated with six candles
each. It was a brilliant and happy time. j
Tbe bride and groom bore their honors
with becoming grace aud dignity. Indeed ail
seemed to imbibe the inspiration of the hour,
and even onr old bachelor friend who reports
for the Gazette talked freely upon the subject
of matrimony all the way home. I believe he
was deeply convicted. I should like to enter
into the detail of this magnificent repast but
will not impose it upon you.
Yours truly. Amccs.
NEW MCSIC. —We have just received from
the publisher. W. W. Whitney, "Palace of
Musk," Toledo, Ohio, the following beauti
ful song ; " you were ,'iecenteen Xtl
lie," by Frank Howard.
"Your cheeks were like the rose Nellie.
Your brow ne'er knew a frown.
Your voice was soft and low. Nellie,
Your hair was golden-brown.
Your blue-eyes like the stars. Nellie,
Their like was never seen.
When I was twenty-one, Nellie,
And you were seventeen.
This is tbe best home song we Lave seen.
The title is embellished with a fine portrait of
the author. We would advise ail our readers
woo can appreciate a good song to enclose
forty cents to the publisher and you will re
ceive a copy by return mail.
"CLKAXMSG THE BLOOD,"' upon which
charlatans bare harped so much, is not a mere
catch word and delusion. The microscope
shows that some diseases exist like parasitic
growths upon the globules of the blood, and
it is further known that some subtle sub
stances destroy or expel them. These sob
stances hare been combined to make Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, which does effectually expel the
disorders that breed and rankle in the blood
to rot out as it were the machinery of life. —

SPECIE PATH EXT. —Mr. Joseph Whetstone,
an old subscriber, called on us one day last
week and paid his subscription to the Ix-
QVIBER, in advance, in solid silver quarter
dollars. We hope a great many of our sub
scribers will imitate his good example. If
they don't jus: bare the specie we will gladly
accept greeebacks.
NOTICE. —AH persons knowing themselves
indebted to me, either by Note or Book ac
count, are requested to call and settle soon,
as I need money, and money I must hare.
Those who give this their immediate atten
tion. will confer a great favor, and those who
neglect complying with this request, can
blame ouly themselves if costs are added.
Please remember this and do as you wish to
be done by.

chine ?

column are to be bad at tbe IxqciaEß BooH

How TO *NT THE FAB* PAT.— We hare
just received a copy of tbia valuable book
from Zeigler, MeCurdy A Co., Philadelphia.
It treat* at great length on grain growing and
special crops, Stock raising, Poultry, Bees,
bruit culture, Gardening Ac., with over 100
pages of valuable recipe*. It is a book for
the practical farmer by whom it will be found
of daily use.
THE NORTH AMERICA* HEVIEW for January
has been on onr table for several days. It has
been reduced in size and we miss tbe ma<s of
fearless, trenchant critical notes that have
heretofore been a peculiar and attractive fea
ture of the North American. The Let-Alone
Prtnciple, by Simon Newcomb, is a plea for
less government. The article is ably and in
geniously written and presents some valuable
thoughts, but it is a question having two
sides and tbe truth we predict will at last be
found to lie between the two extremes. A
second paper on Indian Migrations is contrib
uted by Lewis H. Morgan, in which he under
takes to prove that the North Ameiican In
dian came from North Eastern Asia: the ar
ticle is cleverly written and will be found of
interest to the ethnologist. Karl Blind treats
as to a wordy article on An Ancient Creed
that will find few readers. To those who are
interested in the English Ecclesiastical Crisis
Goldwin Smith gives a large amount of valu
able information in regard to tbe Tractarian
and Puseyite movement in the English
Chorch. In the Treasury reports Gamaliel
Bradford discusses financial and banking
matters in a style indicating a familiarity with
the question that commands a hearing. Oue
of the strongest points he makes is that tbe
beads of Departments should be admitted to
tbe floor of Congress, there to explain and
defend their management and estimates, that |
the whole country may bear and understand. )
This is a custom of the British Government
• which we believe we might adopt with deci
ded benefit. Charles Francis Adams, Jr.,
contributes a paper ou Railway Problems in
1509, in which he points out vividly the
breakets ahead in our contest with huge, i
overgrowD corporations, but like many anoth
er alarmist he points ont the danger but
shrinks from attempting to cope with the huge
monsters he has conjured up. We hope if i
Mr. Adams treats us to any more railroad ar
ticles be will address himself to tbe task of j
devising a remedy for tbe evil he complains ;
of: unless he can do that be is no further ad- J
vanced than the ten thousand, yea a million,
others who see the danger as well as he. He j
-ays: '"What is the aspect of the present? j
Tbe States c-f New-Jersey, Pennsylvania, and
Maryland are respectively owned by corpora
j tions within their limits. New-York is gov
erned by two corporations, acting in concert
with one corrupt political ring. Tbe I'uited j
States is struggling with half a dozen great
combinations of private and corporate inter
ests, and no well informed man doubts that
to day it is in the power of tbe national bank
ing system alone to dictate to the National
Government any financial policy it may de
sire. and to compel its adoption. The simple
fact is, that on the people, who with us are
the source of all power, these combinations, 1
through their material influence and their
power to create and allay disturbance, exer
cise more control than officials and reformers
combined. How indeed could it be otherwise?
Compare the things of to-day with those of •
yesterday. The United States Bank, ir. the
days of its greatest pride, boasted a capita! of
$35,000,000. The slave power" was welded
together by $900,000,000 of property, but i
controlled only one section of the country
ai d could be combatted in another. Tbe
bank was overthrown through its own folly,
after a nine years' struggle: the destruction of
Slavery was accomplished after 25 years of I
agitation and four years of civil war. The j
present banking system consists of one com
pact organization, sensitive to the common ;
interest, subject to a common control, which ;
now er.j ivs, §420,000,000 of wealth, and $50.-
000,000 of income, and is distributed all over
the country. The railroad system dwarfs
even this. Single members of it control two
hundred millions of capital ar.d employ tens j
o! thousand- of men. As a united influence
it shoots out its ramifications into every State
and county and town of the whole L'nion. and
represents ar.d wields all the power contain
ed in $2,000,000,000 of wealth. These arc
the disturbing forces now called upon to take
part in a scc'a! system which grew up under
a government created in 1759. What will he
tbe limits cf their action?
Irritable Invalids.
Indigestion not only affects tbe physical i
health but the di-positions and tempers of its
victims. Tbe dyspeptic becomes, too, in a
mrsf ore demoralized by his sufferings. He is
subject to fits of irritation, sullenness, or des
pair, as the case may be. A preternatural
sensitiveness which be cannot control, leads
bim to misconstrue the words and acts of
those aronnd bim. and his intercourse even
with those nearest and dearest to bim is not
unfrequently marked by exhibitions of testi
□ess foreign to his real nature These at*
the meutai phenomena of the disease, for
which the invalid cannot be justly held re
sponsible, but tbey occasion much household
discomfort. It is to the interest of tbe home
circle it is essentia! to family harmony as
well as to tbe rescue of tbe principal sufferer
from a state not far removed from incipient
insanity, that these symptoms of mental dis
turbance be promptly removed. This can
ouly be dona by removing tbeir physical
cause, a derangement of tbe functions of the
stomach and its allied viscera, the liver and
the bowels. Upon these three important or
gans Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters act simul
taneously, producing a thorough and salutary
change in their condition. Tbe vegetable in
gredients of which the preparation is com
posed are of a renorating. regulating and al
terative chaiacter and the stimulant which
lends activity to their remedial virtues is tbe
purest and best that can be extracted from
the most wholesome of all cereals, viz .- sound
rye. No dyspeptic can take this genial
restorative for a ringle week without ex
periencing a notable improvement in bis
general health. Not only will his bodilr
sufferings abate from day to day, but his mind
will recover rapidly from its restlessness and
irritability, and this happy change will man
ifest itself in his demeanor to all around
j aim. lFeblm

FORCE rCMI\
This Pump btf bfen awarded tbe PIRBT PRE
MIVM at tbe New York, Ohio, and Pennsylra
i tiia State Fairs.
This Pump nearer frceses, from tbe feet that ttie
■ moment you atop pumping, the water gradually
j drops back to a level with the water in tbe we'd;
consequently Ton always get PI'RE COLD
; W ATER. It will foree water any distance through
. pipe, and in case of FIRE, ia valuable, as water
may be thrown to the distance of from fifty to
six'y feut from its mootb, by attaching 3 or four
feet of small hose. It is DOUBLE ACTING,
j and can be worked with ease. It is just the
thing >o wash wagons, buggies, and water gar
: .iens. Ac., and every farmer and mechanic should
have ine of these pumps. As for Health, this
Pump has been pronounced by our leading Phy
sicians a* being one of tbe very best pumps now
in use. It is generally known thvt wooden pumps
hold tbe water in the stalk, and ol course it tastes
more or leas of the wood. This i'ump leaves all
the water drop hack just as soon as you stop
pumping, to the level of the water in the well.
So you get PURE COLD WATER from tbe bot-
Itom of the well every time you draw a backet
full. There are about 92 of these pumps now in
use in this county, for one and tw., years, and
| they have ALL given perfect satisfaction. Not
one of these has fruien since tbey have been put
in. *For reference I can give some of the very
j best men in our town and twenty. Call and see
this pump work before purchasing any o'her.

\ YER'S CATHARTIC PILLS,
-fA FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD,
Perhaps no one medicine is to universally re
quired by everybody as cathartic, nor was ever
any be'ore so universally adoptod into use, in
every country and among all classes, as this mild
but efficient purgative PILL. 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 them: those who have
not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends,
and all know that what it does onee 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
ant to lake, while being purely vegetable no harm
can ne from their use in any quantity.
They operate by tbeir powerful influence on
the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimu
late it into healtby action— -remove the obstruc
tions of tbe stomach, bowls, liver, and other or
gaxis of the body, restoring their irregular action
to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist,
such derangements as are the first origin of dis- ,
ease.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper on
the boz, for tbe following complaints, which
these PILLS rapidly cure:—

As a DINNER PILL, take one or two PILLS
to promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite,
and invigorates the system. Hence it is often
advantageous where no serious derangement ex
ists. One who teeis tolerably well, often finds
that a dose of these Pills makes him fee! decided
ly better, from their cleansing and renovating ef- j
fect on the digestive apparatus.
