AT IT AGAIN. Some two weeks ago, we
noted the fact that. Col. John S. Miller of
Huntingdon had leased the Exchange Hotel
in that place and was keeping a first-rate
hotel. Since then the Exchange has been
burned down, bat it has failed to stop Col.
Miiler from keepiug hotel. He has now
taken charge of the Morrison House opposite
'.he Pennsylvania Railroad Depot where he is
prepared to receive all his old customers ar.d
make them comfortable. We hope all cur
traveling friends will give him a call.
THE "Local" of the Somerset Democrat
charges the "Local" of the Herald with
being so eager to collect news that tbe ladies
ol the fown are afraid to wear their new
r.tjg dresses on the street for fear they
•id be mentioned in a local. The Democrat
evidently lacks in this particular as much as
its neighbor excels or it would not have
copied onr local of the previous week without
cui-cit and tacked two or three lines to the
end to give it originality.
A BIG TlMC. —Tuesday was a lively day in
| Bedford. Notwithstanding the good "plow
ing" weather, and the amount of farm work
| on hand, ~ie curiosity occasioned by the Odd
! Fellow's turnout and tbe XVth amendment
brought tbe people to town from all quarters.
We may fairly sfty licit.there has not been
| such a large crowd in Bedford at any one time
since last "circus day,'" and if the exercises
were not fully appreciated by all, ihey com
manded undivided attention. The Odd Fel
lows, consisting of Bedford Lodge, and En
jarnpment, in full, and very creditable repre
sentations from Bloody Run, Saxton, Wood
berry and other lodges, amounting to about
• hundred mud fifty members, formed in
procession in front of their Hall at ono o'-
clock P. M„ in full regalia, and headed by
the Silver Cornet Band, marched through
the principal streets, and proceeded to the
Cemetery where the dedicatory ceremonies,
which were very interesting and Bolemn,
were performed. Dr. C. N. Hickok and Mr.
John Taylor, made very appropriate speeches
which were warmly received by the Order,
and the large audiance present; after which,
(he procession marched back to their Hall
and dismissed.
The Colored Citizens who had made great
preparations for their Jubilee celebration
began at the break o'day by firing salutes in
bonor of the XYth Amendment. During the
forenoon, they held Divine Bervice in their
church and thanked God for the enfranchise
ment of their race, after which, they raised a
| pole about a in bight, with tbe
stars aud stripes floating at the top. At three
1 and a half o'clock they formed in procession
on Union Street, marched through Peon,
East. Pitt, and Juliana back to the Pole,
where they were addressed by Rev. John Fid
ler, William T. Barks, Colonel Frank Gordon
and Jacob S. Young colored, and Messrs. J. B.
Cessna and W. C. Holahan. The procession
was very creditable. They numbered about
150 and displayed a good deal of taste in get
ting up their arrangements. The quiet and
order which prevailed in their ranks aad their
whole proceedings, were commended by all.
Fins.—On Tuesday afternoon of last week
our citizens were startled by the cry of fire,
and almost immediately after the roof of the
Exchange Hotel, on Railroad street, the
property of Gen. A. P. Wilson, and occupied
by John S. Miiler, Esq., was in a blaze. The
engines were brought to the rescue as soon
as possible, and a large crowd ol citizens as
sembled immediately after the alarm was
given, but the weather being unusuailv dry
and windy the progress of the destroying ele*
meat was too rapid to be stayed in time to
save the two upper stories, which were en
tirely destroyed, together with most of thei r
contents. A large portion of the furniture
in the lower part of the building was saved
from the fire by the exettions of the bystand
ers, but was all more or less damaged in the
handling. A number of the adjoining build
ings were at one time in danger, but were
saved by the exercise of the necessary pre
caution. The origin of the fire is not known,
but it is supposed to have either been from
the attic, or communicated to the roof by
the sparks from a passing engine. The build
ing, we understand, was insured to the amount
of $400). The heaviest loss is incurred by
Mr. Miller, in the destruction and damage of
his furniture. Some of the boarders, and
domestics sustained severe losses of baggage,
clothing and other effects.
Mr. Miiler, was injured considerably in at
tempting to remove some of the furniture,
but is recovering. The building we under
stand is to be rebuilt and enlarged in a short
time.— Huntingdon Journal and American
April 20th.
DONATION VISIT —The Reformed parsonage
of the St. Clairsville charge was visited by
many of the members and friend's of the
minister on tbe morning of the sth of April.
Although the weatbpr was very unpleasant,
yet they came from far and near in waggons,
and carriages and foot with many tokens of
love.
They fillec" the mow with bay and brought
corn and oats to supply the pastor's horse for
many weeks to come. They left a large pile
of wood, much of this already prepared for
the stove, in the vicinity of the wood house.
The chicken coop was well filled. The house
was made their special object to provide; and
this they did bountifully. After partak
ing of refreshments and thanks being re
turned to them by the Pastor, all returned to
their homes richer and happier than they
came. The gifts in all amounted to about
j $200,00.
OILDOM— Latest advices from the Oil re
gions show that on Stump Island the "Island
iving" well is pumping seventy eight barrels
per day. The "Island Queen" well which
was pumping thirty-two barrels, was torpe
doed a few weeks ago, and has since been
pumping from fifty to sixty barrels.
On tbw "Hartley and Shannon" farm, we
have the following reports. "Brady's Run"
, No. 1., forty barrels. "Miama" No. 1., ten
[barrels. "PeaNnt" thirty barrels, "Miama"
No. 2.. thirty barrels. We are glad to hear
of the continued success of the above wells,
as a number of our Bedford friends are inter
ested.
Two other wells are being put down on
Stninp Island by the company and bid fair to
be a success.
LITTLE THINGS— The Washington House is
being painted inside and out and Maj. Dibert
is making extensive preparations for Spring
Season- The Anderson How has received a
new coat of paint and looks well. A new
pavement has been made in front of Mr.
Brode's residence and new curb stone in front
of Dr. Harry's. Court was largely attended
this week. The Democrats have abolished
the "Crawford County System." On Monday
Tuesday aud Wednesday, the assignees of
Reed A Scheil auctioned off the dry goods be
longing to the Mill-Town store. The goods
were brought to the room lately occupied by
T. M. Lynch and sold by William Dibert auc
tioneer. John Bowers was sworn in on Mon
day and immediately after deputized Jacob
Fetter to act in his stead as Constable.
CONSTITUTION BITTERS. —This is the name
of one of tbe best preparations in the line of
Bitters now before the public. It is a perfect
aire for dyspepsia, fever and ague, acidity of
the stomach, loss of appetite, nausea, heart
burn, jaundice, and all diseases arising from
a disordered state of tbe stomach, liver or in
testines. They are a superior article, and
those in need of an invigorating tonic should
at once procure a bottle of tbe Constitution
Bitters. It is an invaluable preparation, and
its use never fails to be attended with the
happiest results. Oar readers should buy
this medicine in preference to all others. It
will be sure to do them good. Try a bottle
aad be convinced.— Jackson Citizen.
PROF. HOHMAN was in town several days
last week. The Silver Cornet Band gave
him a serenade on Saturday Evening and was
duly appreciated and reciprocated by him.
The Professor is now located in Lincoln, Ne
braska, and gives l * very glowing acconnt of
that- town. It is the capital of tbe State, and
ail tbe State Institutions are located there.
As a railroad and business center it bids fa r
to become the City of the State. Tbe Pro
fesser has our best wishes for his success in
his new home.
DURING the past week, Dr. B. F. Harry
has re-painted, re-shelved, re-labelled and re
stocked his drug Store on Pitt Street aud
now considers he has the best Store in the
County. Tbe Doctor is a man of taste, and
knows how to display it. He will be glad to
have bis friends and patrons call and "take a
look" at any time.

Woodbury Letter,
EDITORS Of TUB BEDFORD INQUIRER—
Gentlemen:— l nonce in your last issue that
your quiet town has, lately, been visited by
Gen. Geo. B. McCiellan who in company
with others is looking alter the Kail Itoad
and Mineral interest in Bedford and adjoining
township. I wonder if anybody was ''inter
rogated" dnring the General's stay? No
doubt there were a great many officers 'round,
about that lime. Engineers, I learn, are to
survey and locate the road (rom Mt. Dallas to
Bedford at an early day and, judging from
the men who are at the head of the move
ment, "the good- time coming," so long
looked for by your people, is near at hand.
If your raonied men will only make a united
effort, the road can be put under contract
during the present year, not only from Mt.
Dallas to Bedford, but through, loßridgport.
But my object in writing the present letter is
not so much to speak of your local interests
as it is to speak of the railroad and their
movements in Morrison's Cove. Several
mineralogists from Philadelphia, ar.d doubt
less in the employ of some eastern company,
spent a portiou ol last week with us, examin
ing the various mineral beds in the cove.
You maybe sure they were* interrogated, but
to little purpose. They were here on busi
ness and attended to that only. They ex
pressed themselves highly satisfied with the
minerals, and tell confident that at no re
mote day a rail road would be constructed
from tbo P. C. K. 11. through Morrison's
Cove. Some months ago two routes were
proposed; one from Hollidsysburg to the
"gap," thence byway ol Martinsburg to the
Leather cracker ore beds, three miles north
east of Woodbury borough. The other from
Newry to the "gap," thence by war of
Bloomfield furnace to Woodbury.
Two propositions were made by the Penn
sylvania C. E. It. company to the people of
Newry and Hollidaysburg. The first was,
that it the people of Newry raised $30,000
the road should be built from that point to
the gap; distance about three miles; the
other, asking the people of Hollidaysburg to
raise $50,000, and they should have the road
from their town to the Gap, a distance of six
miles. Both places raised the amount asked,
and the Pennsylvania C. It. R. company ap
pointed a committee to examine the routes
and report their choice. The one from
Hollidaysburg has been selected, and is oow
being surveyed. The P. C. R. 11. company
is to have exclusive control of the road, giving
bonds they bold againßta branch road leading
to Ebinsburg, for the amount raised at Holli
daysburgh. Said bonds will be due in 1881,
bearing G per centum interest.
So much of tbe road being established, it
remains to determine what route is to be
taken from the Gap southward. The survey
made by W. H. Whitehead, known as the
Whitehead survey, ccms to be the most
practicable.
The first seven miles of this survey, and |
the one likely to be chosen by the Penney!- j
vania central company, from Hollidaysburg 1
to Rodnum Furnace, he estimates at $7,000
a mile or at $40,000; the next four miles from j
Rodnum Furnace to mine bank or Bloomfield j
at $12,000 a mile or at $48,000: from Bloom- j
field to Woodbury, five miles, at $4,000 a j
mile or at $24,500: making the total cost of i
the sixteen miles $121,500. This survey \
runs through or close by the following valua- j
ble ore lands, viz.—Cowen's ore bank, \
Bloomfield, Lidy's Syster's, and the lately I
discovered rich veins in Leather cracker i
which alone, are estimated by mineralogists I
to contain over $7,000,000, worth of ore. ;
Nine miles of this route can be made without j
any damages, as the tanners, are willing to
give the right of way free.
The Martinsburg route is three miles longer, '
the damages heavy, grade more difficult, aud
no mineral fields until we reach Leather
cracker, and even this one can be reached •
cheaper by tbe Whitehead survey than by the
latter.
Tbe advantages of this road to the people
of Middle Woodbnrr, South Woodbury and
Hopewell, should the road be continued on ,
through the Pattonsville gap, are so many
and varied that time and space will not allow
an enumeration in this letter.
In conclusion, let me say, that "the rail
road, is all tbe talk in Woodbury, but it is by
no means "all talk." Our people are sub
scribing liberally and ere long the books, in
stead of being opened for subscription, will
be closed, and the opportunity to take stock
will be past. More anon.

WOMMAN'S MEDICAL COLLEGE or PENS
SYT.VASIA —We have Just received the vale
dictory address of Ann Preston M. D. to the
graduating class of the above named institu
tion. The address is a brave, earnest perfor
mance doing credit to the head and heart of
its author, and full of sound, sensible, prac
ticai advice to the graduating class. The
eighteenth Annual Commencement took
place March 13tb when fourteen ladies, con
stituting the graduating class received the
Degree of Doctor of Medicine. The cata
logue shows that fifty ladies have been in
attendance upon the lectures of the past ses
sion. We hail the steady increase of the stu
dents of this institution as an omen for good
and hope to see large and rapid accessions
to the ranks of the female physicians. For
the treatment of a large class of diseases pe
culiar to women and children none are so
well fitted as prudent, intelligent and sensible
women educated for their work. Thousands
of such are now needed all over the land and
their coming will be hailed with joy in every
community by hundreds of patient, timid suf
ferers. We are no advocate- of "Woman's
rights" in the shape of the ballot ana many
other things to which some of the coarser
kind aspire but we do wish abundant success
to womeu physicians and hope to see large
accessions to their number.

AMONG THE INDIANS. —Lieut. Herndon tells
us that no tribes of aborigineos are found in
the deepest toresls of South America, from
the Andes to the Atlantic coast, that do not
have and use Doct. Ayer's medicines and
Lowell cottons. "Tremont," "Suffolk,"
"Boott," are seen stamped in large red and
blue letters upon their garments, while Ayer's
Pills and Cherry Pectoral are among the
treasures of their habitations. The native
soil furnishes them all their food and most of
their remedies, but they suffer from some
afflictions which roust have the interposition
of higher skill.— Sentinel, Liberty ,Ya. lm
Occupaiioual Ailments.
Fresh, pure air is a vitalizing elixir. Who- .
ever is debarred hy circumstances from un- 1
restricted access to this invisible, but power
ful stimulan', needs a medicinal invigorantof
Borne kind. The great object should be to
choose the best. Popularity is a pretty good
guarantee of merit in this scrutinizing and in
telligent age, this criterion, Hoa
tetter's Stomach Bitters stands first among
the invigorating and regulating medicines of
the present day. To the wants of persons en
gaged in indoor employments, especially in
crowded factories where even with the best
possible ven ilation the atmosphere is always
in some degree polluted, this salubrious
vegetable tonic is peculiarly adapted. The I
nature of the ingredients is no mystery. It
consists ot an absolutely pure diffusive stimu
lant, tinctured—or rather surcharged—with
the fluid extracts of sanatous roots and barks
and herbs. The pharmacopoeia has its
tinctures, but what are they? The juice of
only asiogle root or bark or plant is present
in each. Not one of them combines the three
properties of a tonic, an aiteralive, and an
aperient. All these elements are blended in
the Bitters; nor are these the sum of its
medicinal recommendations. It is also a
blood depureut and an antispasmodic.
The baleful effect which air that bas been
partially exhausted of its oxygen by frequent
breathing produces on the vital organization,
is notorious, and when this devitalized at
mosphere is superadded the mephitic vapor
of Lot air furnaces, it becomes deleterious
and depressing in the extreme. To enable
the system to bear up, even for a few hours
each day against the debilitating influence of
a vitiated atmosphere, a wholesome tonic and
alterative js urgently required. This grand
desideratum is supplied in Hostetler'sßitter?,
which as a strength sustaining, health-pro
tecting agent has no rival either among offic
inal or advertised medicines. laprlm

JJOW TO CURE CONSUMPTION.
THE PHILOSOPHY OF DR. SCHENCK'S
GREAT MEDICINES.-Will people never learn
to know tht a diseased liver and •tomnch neces
sarfly disease- the entire system? The plaices'
Principle of common sense teach thie, and yet
there are hundreds who ridicule the idea, and
continue in the eonrse which almost inevitably
brings them pretnrturely to the grave. Living
as the majority of people do at complete variance
with the lawe of nature, it mast be apparent to
all, that sooner or later, nature wilt revenge her
self. Hence we find that persons who indulge to
excess in the use of very rich or indigestible food
or intoxicating drinks, invariably pay a heavy
penalty in the end. The stomach becomes disor
dered and refuses to act; the liver fails to perform
its functions, dyspepsia and its attendant evils
follow, and stiV. the suffering individual* persist
in clinging to the thoroughly exploded idees of
the past. Dr. SCHENCK'S medicines are recom
mended to all such. They bring sure and certain
relief wherever they are used as directed, and all
that is necessary to establish their reputation
with every ailing man or woman in the land Is a
fair and impartial trial of them. Let those who
are skeptical on this point, and who have permit
ted interested persons to prejudice them against
these now celebrated remedies for Consumption,
discard their prejudices, and be governed by the
principles of reason and common sense. If the
system is disordered depend upon it, in nine cases
out of ten the seat of the disorder will be found
in the stomach and liver. To cleanse and invig
orate the stomach and to stimulate the liver to
healthy action, use
SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS.-Thedai
]y increasing demand for these pills is the be.-t
evidence of their value. Thousands upon th -u
sands of boxes are sold daily. Why? Sini|ilv
because they act promptly and effi i'ently. In*
valida who may not find it convenient to call on
Dr. SCIIENCK in person are informed that full
and complete directions for use accompany each
package of the
MANDRAKE PILLS, PULMONIC SYRUP
AND SKA-WEED TONlC.—These medicines
will cure consumption unless the lungs ere s< far
gone that the patient is entirely beyond the reach
of medical relief.
It may be asked by those who are not familiar
with the virtues of these great remedies. "Jlow do
Dr. SCHENCK'S medicines effect ibeit wonder
ful cure* of consumption?"
The answer is a simple oit. IK,; Uiln vWi,
work of restoration by bringing the stomach,liver
and bowels into an actire healthy condition. It
is food that cures this formidable disease.
SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS ant on the
liver and stomach, promoting healthy accretion,
and removing the bile and slime which have re
suited from the inactive or torpid condition of
these organs, and of the system generMly. This
sluggish state of the body, and the consequent ac
cumulation of the unhealthy substances named
prevent the proper digestion ol fo d, and, as a
natural consequence creates disease, which results
in prostration and finally in death.
SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP A SEA
REED TV,NIV", when taken regularly, mingle
with the food, aid the digestive organs, make good
rich bluod, and as a natural consequence, give
flesb and strength to the patient Let the faculty
say what it may, this is the only true cure for
consumption. Experience has proved it beyond
the shadow of a doubt, and thousands are to-day
alive and well who a few years since were regar
ded as hopeless eases, but who were indooed to
try Dr. SCII ENCK'S remedies, and were restor
ed to permanent health by their use.
One of the first steps the physician should take
with a consumptive patient is to invigorate the
system. Now how is this to be d -ne Certainly
nut by giving medicines that exhaust and ener
vate—medicines that impair instead of imnrove
the functions of the digestive organs. Doctor
SCHENCK'S medicit.es cleanse the stomach and
bowels of all substances which are calculated t,
irritate or weaken them They rrevteaoappe
tite—promote healthful dige-tion— make good
blood, and, as a consequence, they invigorate and
strengthen the entire system, and'more especially
those parts which are disea.-ed. Ii this a uuotbe
done, then the case must be regarded as a hope
less inc.
If the physician finds it impossible to make a
PATIENT FEEL HI NCR v, if the diseased person
cannot partake of good nourishing food and prop
erly digest it, it is impossible that he cn gain in
tlcsh and strength: and it is equally impossible to
bring a patient to this condition so long as the
liver is burdened with diseased bile, and the
stomach laden with unhealthy slime.
Almost the first reqnest made to the physician
by a consumptive patient is that he will prescribe
medicines that will remove or allay the cough,
night sweats and chills, which are the sure atten
dants on consumption. But this should not be
done, as the cough ie only an effort of nature to
relieve itself, and the night sweats end chills are
caused by the diseased lung*. '1 he remedies or
dinarily prescribed do more harm than good.
They impair the functions of the stomach, ici
pede healthy digestion, and aggravate rather
than cure the disease.
There is, after ail, nothing like facts * itb which
j to eub-txntiate a position and it is up> n facts that
i Dr. SCHENCK relies. Nearly all who have ta
ken b;s medicines in accordance with bis direction,
have not only been cured of consumption, but
from the fact that these medicines act with won
derful power upon the digestive organs, patients
thus cured speedily gain flesh. Cleansing the
system of all impurities, they lay the loundation
for a solid, substantial structure. Restoring the.-c
organs to health, they create an appetite. l'!,e
food is properly assimilated; the quantity of blood
is not only increased, but is made rich and strong
and in the face of such a condition ol the system
all diseases must be banished.
Full directions accompany each of the medi
cir es, so that it is not absolutely necessary that
j patients should see Dr. SCUFNCK personally,
unless tbey desire to have their lungs examined.
