Quite an interesting experi ment was made last Monday, on the canal, with method of propelling boats by means of water ejected from a forcing pump. The Steam Fire Engine of tho Borough was placed on a Hat, the suction pipe was thrown over tho bow of the boat into the water, and ihe pipes through which the water was to be ejected were arrang ed on each side of the flat dipping into the wa ter several inches with a slight inclination downwards, at tho stern of the Hit. The water was thrown out witli a 601b force and moved the flat a little more than three miles an hour, with several tons weight and forty persons on It went to Northumberland and back. The experiment was an entire success and was conducted under direction of John Sperring and engineer William Young.

The State Legislature last winter passed an act empowering the Governor to appoint a seal er of weights and measurers in each county "where no such office now exists by law, whose term of service shall be for three years, and he Bubject to the laws now in force governing such oQiccs within this commonwealth." The act of 1845 6ays that il shall bo the duty of Ihe regulators of weights and measures at least once in every year to go to stores, house", stalls and offices of the makers, venders or pro prietors of beams, scales, weights and measures, and try and adjust all beams, scales, weights and measures, and seal the same with the ini tials of his last or surname, and the current year, for which trial and adjustment he shall re ceive tho following fees : For balancing every set of scales; 10 cents; patent balance, 20 cents; lay or coal scales, $2; yard meature, 0 cents; bushel measure, 20 cents ; quarter peck meas ure, 01 cents ; gallon, half gallon and quart measure, -1 cents; pint or less, 3 cents; for every weight, 2S pounds or more, 12 cents; weight less than 2S pounds, 4 cents each ; and an additional charge for lead, labor or other materials for adjusting said beams, scale, weights and measures, at the current value of labor and materials furnished, and no more ; "Provided, That for the sealing of such beams, scales, weights and measures as have been seal ed the previous year, he shall demand and re ceive only one-half of the aforementioned fees," None has been appointed for lids county. Our enterprising Commissioner, Mr. Sands rushed to Harrisburg some time ago to get his son appointed, but the Governor evidently knew Joseph, and thought one of Ihe family on the county was enough at a lime. Why next they will want Sandetone in the proposed jail. COMPLIMENTARY. The Mountiiin Wio' correspondent speaks thus about Bloomsburg matters. Bloomsburg looks beautiful. -The streets are nicely graded and paved, and the whole town as neat and clean as a pin. The council de servos praise for passing an ordinance prohibi ting the running at large of cows. This is one of the striking features of the good government of the town. Business for the piesent is very dull, and there seems lo be no prospect of its picking up for some time, but slill wo arc liv ing under earnest hope that a revival of busi ness may soon take place, so that our citizens may be induced to remain in town, although iose who .ire leaving do so reluctantly and with great rccret. Notwithstanding the hard times nnd adversities we are laboring under wo look forward, even if it is at a great distance to a time when Bloomsburg will rank on an equal footing iu business with any other town in the ,State say nothing about its being the most beautiful town. The jail question has at lat been definitely settled but not amicably, Tho commissioners have decided, since the injunction restraining them from accepting the Krug contract, to ac cept the gift of a lot from Mr, Waller nnd erect the necessary structure thereon. The new build ing will in all probability cost between sixty and seventy thousand. Before Ihe lapse of three years the question of building a new court house will be agitated. The vacant lot on the comer of Seventh andiron streets will be the mot desirable and convenient place for the building, being next tollie jail. One would naturally suppose that this lot was purposely left, with a view of creeling a court house not many years hence. Would it not be better for Ihe county if the jail was lo be erected upon Ihe site or the old one? e will refrain from say ing any more on this subject for Ihe present. Moyer Brothers have bought the old Rupert block which they intend tearing down and put in its place a large and handsome building for their own ue.

HEAVY FJIIP, IN Jllt.TONI tOS3 rORtV THOUSAKD COLLARS I On Wednesday last, about noon, an alarm of fire was sounded and the steamer was got nut a oon ns possible. The flrp proved lo be al Ihe saw mill of McCleery, Ncwlraid it Co., nbove town, and beforo tho steamer could reach tho spot the mill was one sheet of flames and be yond the hopo of saving, Tho attention of tho firemen was then turned to the largo plies of lumber stacked up in tho yard, and an cflbrt was made to stop the progress of the flames in that direction, but it was a vain effort. The wind blew directly toward the lumber from tho mill, and though the firemen worked hard for hours yet they were unsuccessful, and the lum ber was all consumed. In the meantime tho Fisher Hook and Ladder boys (who wcro first on the ground) had not been idle. They had their ladders up at nil the exposed houses on Lincoln street, and worked manfully in connec tion with the citizens in carrying water and preventing the houses and stables from catch ing. It is estimated that there was nearly twenty thousand dollars worth of lumber destroyed and tho mill and machinery wns worth twenty thousand more. On the mill there was an in surance of only eight thousand dollars, and there was no insurance at all on tho lumber. The loss falls heavily upon McCleery, Newhard it Co., especially at this time when Ihey havo passed through n long season of dullness, and when the fall trade was just about commencing wherein they hoped to dispose of a largo part of tho accumulated lumber. Miltoniun. How to Catch Black Bass. An old At lantlo City fisherman tells in the following way how to catch black bass. Black bass, he says, "will first nibble gently at the bait nnd will frequently draw your float under water. But wait the float comes back suddenly he seizes it and darts off, Don't pull ; give him play. Suddenly ho stops ; he swallows the bait slowly. Now a quick pull and you have him." Hanged at Rlmira. Peter II. Penwell, was hanged at 11:35 o'clock July 20 in an enclosed spaco be tween the old and new jail buildings in Elmira. An immense crowd gathered around the buildings at an early hour, and the military wcro brought into requisition to disperse them. Gov. Robinson's letter de nying having expressed tho opinion attri buted to him about tho duties of a Judge in the case, destroyed the last hope of re spite. I'cmvcll spent tho morning iu prayer nnd conversation with tho clergy. I to showed not the slightc-t tremor of weakness to the last, and was very anxious to bo taken down and shown tho scaffold and its work ings. When placed tinder tho noose he thanked the Sheriff atid the people generally for their kindness to hiui. Then ho knelt down witli the Rev. Hoar,and the latter prayed fervent ly. When his arms and legs wero tied. Penwell said: "1 hope all tho gentlemen present will tako warning by me." There wero about 300 spectators, and soldiers had to he posted 011 neighboring housetops to control the clamorous crowd. Tho drop fell. Scarcely 11 tremor passed over Pen- well's body. In thirteen minutes ho was pronounced dead. The gash on his throat inflicted by himself with tho razor after he killed his wife, was torn open by tho rope, but the blnck cap hid it from the specta tors. Penwell mado a long confession before go ing to the execution. Ho reiterates his as sertion that it was agreed between him and his wife to kill themselves. After the failure of the poisoning his wife said : "Wo are to die together any how, and I don't care how." 'This was on tho day of the murder. Penwell says : Then it was that I llrst thought of tho axe. In the afternoon of that day (Satur day, March 10,) at about half past 3 or -1 o'clock. I went in and asked Henry White head if ho had a razor, and lie replied that io did have ono somewhere around, and he looked and found it. I took it into the room and my wifo asked me what I was. going to lo with it. I told her that she knew. I do not remember whether I got the axe from tho house or from out of doors. I remem ber having it in my hand and that she said, !ov is the time for 11s." I remember her saying 'Rosanna" beforo I s-truck her, and also ol cutting my throat. I do not re member anything more until in the night when there wcro people in the room I do not remember how many times I struck her. In the morning I raised up from where I was lying, and where I had lain all night iu tho t-amo room where tho corpse of of my wifo was lying, and looked up on her face, and realized for tho first timo what I had done. She seemed to look to me very natural juat as if alio was asleep. As soon as I saw her, I fell back and re mained there until the officers came and re moved mo to prison. Through the night, some time after tho crime, some of the doc tors came and dressed my wound. I did not realize anything until after I had been iu prison for nearly two weeks. Penwell wus buried nt the expense of the city. This is tho second hanging in Chem county. The first was in ISC". Chief Juslico Agnew, in company with Dr. McKenny, Chnrles Townsend and other gentlemen, of Beaver, went out gunning on the Fourth, and prepared themselves for a good day's sport in bagging woodcocks. But it seems that this variety ol "game" did ifbt exist in the locality traversed, and some of tho party fell to, bringing down pheasants, forgetting for tho time, that to do so at this season was unlawful. Between twenty and thirty of tho birds wero "bagged" and brought home, and all hands seemed well pleased with tho day's enjoyment. The Chief Justice and ills companions were.how- ever, somewhat astonished a few days after wards upon receiving a summons from 'Squiro Glass, of New Brighton, to appear before him on Thursday next to answer a suit of the Sportsman's Association for vio lating tho gamo laws. The affair hns crea ted a sensation iu Beaver county, tho home of the Chief Justice, and although some are disposed to think the prosecution malicious, they still regard it as a pretty good joke on the Supreme Court. It is understood that at the hearing the Chief Justice will plead guilty as accessory before and after the fact. lltt. Commercial Gazelle, DOBBIN'S ELECTRIC SOAP.

They nro mild, but ef fectual in their operation, moving tlio bowels surely nnd without pain. Although ccntlo in their operation, they aro still the most thorough and searching cathar tic medicine that can bo employed : cleans ing the stomach and bowels, and even the blood. In small doses of ono pill a day, they stimulate tho digestive organs and promote vigorous health. Ayer's Pills have been known for more than a quarter of a century, and have obtained a world-wide reputation for their virtues. They correct diseased action in the several assimilative organs of tho body, and aro so composed that obstruc tions within their range can rarely with stand or cvado them. Not only do they euro the cvery-day complaints of every- body, but also formidable and dangerous diseases that have balllcd tho best of human skill. While they produce power ful effects, they are,' at the same time, tho safest and best physic for children. By their aperient action they gripe much less than tlio common purgatives, and never giva pain when the bowels arc not inflamed, Tlicy reach the vital fountains of the blood, ana strengthen tne system oy ireeing It from the elements of weakness. Adapted to all ages and conditions in all climates, containing neither calomel nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may be taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar-coating preserves them ever iresn, ami makes them pleasant to take; while being purely vcy etablc, no harm can arise from their use in at.v quantity. niEi'.iKED i:v Dr. J. C.
