Ask for Dry Measuri:. It is a fact worthy
of nolo that our people are imposed upon by
too many berry peddlers, in Ihe way of short
measurement that is, the berries are sold by
liquid measure. There is quite a difference be
tween liquid and dry measure, when you come
to measuro a bushel of cherries. When you
buy berries, sec that they nre measured by
"diy measure."

Experiment. 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. It Is intended to
repeat the experiment soon, with a somewhat
mproved application of the forces. Montour

WKIOHTS AND MKASUItKS.
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. This firm is doing an extensive
business, and their reputation as good drug
gists has become widely circulaled. .Mr. Law.
alt, the obliging and handsome clerk in the re
tail department is a "shining light" and has
hosts of friends. He knows how to make good
soda water.
On Sunday the family of Pat Heter, the
condemned Moll le, was in town and visited
him in jail.
The coal and iron police on guard about tho
jail discourse some very excellent vocal music
during the stillness of Ihe night, and their vol
ces can be heard at n great distance.
Mr. F. Cooley, for a number of years connec
ted with Ihe Columbian as edilor, has taken his
departure from Bloomsburg, fur Wilkes Barre,
where he will be engaged on the Daily Times
as an editor, Mr, Cooley is a good newspaper
man and Blcomtburg will greatly miss his
spicy articles as have heretofore appeared in
the columns of Ihe Columbian, The times is a
good paper and under his assistance we know
it will be better. We hope Mr. C. will like
his new "sit" and wish him a pleasant and
agreeable life in ilkesb&rre,

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.

Ayer's Cathartic Fills,
For all tbo purposes of a Family Phyalo,
nud for curlnc; Costlveness, JaundJee,
Indigestion, Foul Otonmch, BreattL,
Headacho, Erysipelas, Rheumatism,
Eruptions and Bkln Diseases, Bil
iousness, Dropsy, Turaors.Worms,
Neuralgia, as a Dinner 1111,
for .Purifying tho Blood,
Arc the most ef
fective and conge-
nia) purgative ever
discovered. 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.
