This is not the case. Oysters will live (with proper care,) from four to six days after being opened; and not only live but fatten nnd grow. OyBters, opened at tide, may be dark and flabby; by lho ttrao thoy reacli the consumer, tt is plump, firm and white. Further evidence that tho oyster Is alive, is ihat about one-third of tho re tail dealer's profits is from what the In crease in size. Take nine gallons oysters, put in one gallon water, let them stand over night, the water will be all gone and there will bo ten gallon oysters. Also, when an oyster is alive, it sinks In water, when dead it lloats and Is not fit to sell. Bad taste about tub oysters generally comes from the package not bilug sweet and clean.

IMcnxant IleaUinsr. We have received from Mr. J. M. Emer- of 111 Nassau street, New York a book en titled "New York to tho Orient." It Is written by hlmstlf, and Is the story of a trip to the Holy Land, of visits paid to many places ot historical fame, and of tho manners and customs ot races to which tlmoanncars to bring neither chance nor Improvement. It is really a reprint In col lectlvo form of a series ot letters contribut. ed to The Yonkat UattHe, and makes an exceedingly pleasant aud Instructive vol. umo of some 220 pages. The stylo of the author Is easy and flowing, the language well chosen and forciblo without any at. tempt nt word-painting, and details are given with far more than tho ordinary Judgment shown In books ot travel. Somo of the descriptive passages would not dis grace ihc pen of a Washington Irving, so grapulo Jand upprcclaltve are they. The author also possesses a certain quaint humor which seems to bo peculiarly his own. Without trying to uo lacetious, ue nevertheless brings now and then a quiet smile to the fnco ot the reader by a sort of good natured irony underlying allusions apparently made quito gravely and serloubly. Mr. Emerson was a passen ger homo on the ill-fated "Oregon," and the description be gives of a peril which was so near culminating In a hideous catas trophe, is thrilling and realistic In the ex. trcmc. The pages dovoted to this graphic chapter ot tho book would alone Justify the expenditure ot the modest sum at which "Now York to the Orient" can be obtained. Wo havo read thu book through with much Interest, and can cheerfully recommend it to all who are fond ot books ot travel. The price is ouly ono dollar, neatly bound lu cloth, and tho book Is for sale at G. A. Clark's book store, West, via Pittsburg or Erie tlckeU sold by Moyer Bros.

Co. has lately come to full life and financial health again, About 1809 there was quite an excitement nboutlhis Co, and considerable money wns spent. It died out after the failure of Jay Cooko. Iu 1875 It was revived ngntn only to gasp for breath and go back Into a comatose stato, but now it bus nil thu bloom of youth. Mr Day has ordered the survey completed with tho Instructions to proceed to the construction of tho road in the near future.

William B. Kestcr, a former resident of Columbia Co., this state, fell dead In the Third street market, Wilmington, Del., on Friday evening, December 3rd. nbotit six o'clock, from nu nttnek of henrt disease. Ho has stood on King street for about two years. That cveulng he drove down ns usual, and left his wagon on the street He walked into tho Third street mnrkct nnd stood chatting in a good natured way for about ten minutes with a neighbor, who has n stall in the market. Ho fell over suddenly against a chopping-hiocK and expired in two minutes. Coroner Bnmhill was it once notified, who took possession of tho body and placed it in the morguo uutll Saturday morning when an inquest was held. Ivcster leaves a widow nnd eight child red. He wns In the 07th year of his ngc, nnd has lived in Kennete township two years His horse and wngon were taken o ire of by friends. Ho has suffered from heart disease for years nnd predicted his death in the exact manner in which ll occurred. Rheumatism usually settles in the back or limbs, and often so completely over powers Its victims that all business and labor have to bo abandoned. Our readers should remember that Hood's Sarsaparilla is not recommended 03 a positive specific for rheumatism; its proprietors doubt 11 there is, or can lie, such a remedy. But many people who were most afflicted, state that they have been positively cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla. The disease Is often thu result of linpUro blood henco the power of this great medicine over It. Its success In many severe cases Justifies us in recommending its use to all sufferers tr0ln rheumatism. 100 doses ono dollar. s ,h prcttv vasC8 at Mercer's. We are offering great Sewing Machines.

In regard to that, there Is no occasion lo givo you special instructions, further than to inform on In a general way of tho outline of the law upon that subject. The term homlcldo means tho killing of a human being that may not bo murder, may not be man. slaughter) It may bo n lawful killing, or it may bo felonious, according to tho facts i tt Is ho.ntclilo fur the sheriff to hang a man undor n decree ot court after trial j that is a homicide, because it lakes tho life ot a man j but it Is not mutdor nnd It Is not manslaughter, because it is tho taking ot life in accordance witli la?. Murder Is tho felonious killing of any human being, with mallco aforethought, either express or Implied It la this Ingred ient ot malice which constitutes murder, when human life Is taken. Malice is ex. press when ono person takes the llfo of another nut of Bpito or revenge j when Hint is the motive, tho malice is express t but that Is not tho only kind of mnllcu of which the law takes notice. Matlce, in law, exists when nn net is done out of u wicked and malicious icartj when a per. eon, regal dless of the rights or others ;and regardless ot his duties as a citizen, his mind bent . n mischief, docs n heartless nnd cruel act, the law then Implies mallco so you havo In this definition what is express mallco and what Is Implied malice: if till Ingredient of malice is lacklng'nany case where n human llfo Is taken, tho tnk, ing is not murder) mallco Is essential to constitute that olfense. Manslaughter is tho unlawful killing of a person without malice ; that Is where thcro is a provoca tion, passiou engendered, nnu, by reason of that provocation, the person who Is in- censed, before there Is room for passion to cool, whllo yet smarting under the prova tlon, takes llio : here tho law, making al lowunce for human passion, reduces tho grade of tho homlcldo to manslaughter that which would be murder If prompted by malice, when the net Is committed on tho spur of the moment, not prompted by mallco but brought about by previous pasj slon. Weighing the facts of a given case, It is frequently somewhat more difficult to de termine whether or not they make out an offense amounting to manslaughter than to decide between murder and not murder, the line of distinction in the latter question being more sharply drawn. Two persons may fight by agreement, when onedocsnot Intend to kill tho other; yet, If he does take life, his act is mnnslnugli -r. AVhcthcr a felonious homicide is m inslaughtcr or murder, and, if murder, In what degree, is commonly for the traverse nnd not for the grand Jury, who. If they find tho bill true, usually return a general indictment. The law holds tho lives of citizens so sacred that whenever death is caused by violence It requires that the matter should bo thoroughly and carefully looked into. Often ono inquiry Is, who began tkcntlray? and, If tt bo settled that tho accused did not, then Ihi Inquiry is, Did ho go beyond what was necessary in order to protect him self ? Lawful homicide Is cither justifiable or excusable : Justifiable homicide is the tak ing of human life In pursuanco of sentence of law, ns when a shcrilf executes the denthwnrrnnt upon a convict properly con demned by a court of competent Jurisdict ion ; excusable homlcldo Is the taking of human life in selfdefeuse. The law undoubtedly is that when one person is wrongfully assailed by another, and tho person who Is assaulted avoids fighting so tar as he can do so with safety to himself, but finds it necessary or appar ently necessary for him to inflict nn injury upou his assailant, he may so protect him self from great bodily harm or from being slain by tho hand of another. This qucs. tlon of fact Is ono that properly can bo tried only when the person accused makes his defense. It is true that If the ovldcnco on the part ot tho commonwealth satis factorily shows that the accused acted In selfdefense, tho grand Jury nre not boand to return a true bill even for manslaughter; but I feel Justified In saying that whenever a death has been caused by tho uso ot a deadly weapon or by violence, whatever may be tho circumstances, it is right that there should bo a full investigation where both sides are represented. Beforo the grai.d Jury there aro no counsel to ex amine witnesses, no counsel to crosscx amtno witnesses, no court to give instruct ion in regard to questions of law arising GBE AT inducements to persons desiring are 1 mi. ..11 nnr; .ll.' j'l'"a5vr tho celebrated ESTEY.

Institute IiiHtructoru, Rev. Theo, S. Cuylcr of Brooklyn said July 27 1880 : I am happy to learn that you nre Intend ing to gtvc to a wider public next winter your instructive nnd delightful lecture on Siberia, nud your racy adventure among the Arctic snows- It Is one ot the most capital treats I have ever enjoyed from tho lecture platform. Tho many who have rend your volume "Tent Life in Siberia," will be eager to listen to Its author, and the many men who have not read It will have a new chapter of life unlolded to them. May you and your bear skin cos tume be greeted by thousands of delighted auditors. St. Manayunk Chronicle, Pa., says of Col. Conwcll : A perfect ma'ter of tho orator's art; brilliant, Incisive, overpowering, elo qucnt words are so linked with vivid ges ture, that he seems tho born throll of tho rclgnlug, emotions and wit never so keen, humor never bo refined, yet broad aud gen ial, pathos never so genuine and deep, make everything ho touches patt of a grand procession wherein axiomatic through and pertinent nnccdoto not only point to Hea ven, but lead the way. Almost every sen tence is an Inspiration, and tn closing his Jules -Verncish grasp on the trend of scientific achievement, seems to send an electric illumination to the very verge of the mlllcnium. As an author and orator, Col. Conwcll won high honors. N. Y. Tribune. 2t Dr. Buckley's lecture on "Cranks, or how not to go mad" is a good lecture, but not a humorous one. The latter part of its title gives n clue to Its general drift. It is really an exhaustive discussion ot the sub ject ot lnsrulty, treating upon all Its phases and freaks ; how to handle and help its victims : how to ward it off when there seems to be an hereditary tendency to It and how to live so as not co mad. Tbo IccMirc is an able and very Interesting dis cussion of tho whole subject, occasionally witty, but not humorous, and the person who goes with the expectation of laughing or who cannot rise above that plane in the scale of entertainment will bo greatly dis appointed. Tho Dr. speaks rather pleas antly, with force and precision, but with no effect at oratorical display. 3t. Peof. S. V. Foose, narrlsburg.
