Dysentery is prevailing among the children at Miilheim t> an alarming ex tent. tjuile a number of deaths have oc curred in comoquonee, inside the last two week*. Mr. Michael Gophart, an old and re sportable eitiren of Miilheim is danger ously ill. I*ater—Mr. Kephart died on Wednes day morning. His age i* about 72 year* The literary entertainment held by the members of the "Excelsior Society, of the Co. Nerusal School, on Thursday evening last, was a success in every parti cular. The entertainment consisted of pa per reading, interspersed at intervals with music The house was crowded to it* ut isom capacity, and the rounds of applause that attended each successive reading, proved that the paper wa* edited with more than ordinary ability. The paper was gotten up by the male -tudenls, and consisted of a variety of interesting matter —the comical, however, taking the lead. Huge jokes were gotten off on the tudents of the school, many of whom were made to tremble, by the exposure of tricks ami deceptions practiced by them upon the Professors, and ot which they supposed no one ever dreamed. But "murder will out. and the argus-eyed editors hrewdly ta tght them up, and dragged them before the public. It wa* amusing to ee bow some of those who were severely lam pooned, tried to laugh it off ; while other* looked as though they were attending their great grand-mother'* tuncral. Ta king all in all, the entertainment eclipsed any thing of the kind ever held in this place, and too much prai#e can not be giv en in honor of all concerned. SL-KCTZTO*. The Nursery t* a very pleasant magazine for the children, and its emiucnt success shows that it meet* a want which , i * commonly fait. The September nurn- j ber is an excellent .one. The wall* of a new stone building, which wa* in progress of erection, adjoin ing the new bank edifice at Bellefonte, gave way and fell into the street on last I Thursday night. The cause we believe, was that these walls were too tiny on ac count of the costliness of the stone. Where the saving it now, we can't tell,' but this thing of putting up houses with outside elegance, but which are mere egg shells in strength, should he prohibited by law. There is too much of that kind of building done in these days and the sad results are getting to be frequent and come to us under the head of "House Caved hi, and Lives Lost.' * In erecting houses the substantial is needed before the ele gant learn that Dr. P. R. Wagenseller, of Selingsgrove, was so badly wounded with a knife oa Saturday evening that he died in 34i hours afterwards. The statement of the affair we have heard.is as follows. Dr. Wagenseller employed a man who occa sionally got drunk. On Saturcay this man in company with a joung man named Wenrich. nineteen years old, got on a spree. In the evening Dr. Wagenseller met Wenrich and charged him with get ting his hired man drunk, when Wenrich called him a liar. Wagenseller told Wenrich if he would call him that again he would strike him. Wenrich repeated the lia,and Wagenseller struck him over the mouth; Wenrich immediately drew a knife and cut Wagenseller across the stomach, from which he died 'on Bunday evening. Wenrich has been arrested. Dr. Wagenseller was one of the Republi can candidates for the Snyder caunty notniration for Senator ; but his brother, Dr. B. F. Wagenseller, was the success ful candidate. The deceased was one of the leading men of Snyder county, and the sympathies are with his family. The Lock Haven Republican says: A lad named Burke, five years old, ac cidentally* shot himself on Men-Jay, and died on the following day. His father, who works in the woods, bad been home attending the funeral of his oldest boy, and while che.nging his clothing prepara tory to returning, laid the pistol upon a chair. The mother, fearing that the child, would pick it op, removed it to anotherfplace. But this excited the little fellow's interest, and he reached for the weapon. In taking it down it was dis charged, the ball entering his side, pass ing through bis stomach and lodging in bis arm. This sudden and second afflic tion of the parents excites much sympa thy. A VERT SAD CASK.—There are some persons, says the Clinton Democrat, whose fate runs in the line ef continued pain and sorrow—they seem to be singled out—and of thase appears the lad who had the misfortune to become the subject of this notice. Mr. James Nichols, of Pine Creek township, has a son about twelve years old, named Joseph. A year or so ago, this lad unfortunately ran a fork into one-of his eyes and put it out. Since then he broke his leg above the knee and re covered. Friday Joseph was chopping wood. At the same time and place bis father undertook to chastise another son, for some misdemeanor, and struck him with a switch. The swith broke, and the flying piece struck poor Joseph in the other eye and put it out I Dr. Schneider was called in, but be declared it a hopeless case, and the poor lad is blind for life. It is hard, indeed, for his father, of whom the neighbors speak as a poor, but worthy man, and for whom they express their special sympathy, owing to the circum stances of the case, which appear to have been purely accidental, the injured lad be ing some fifteen feet distant from the one being chastised. The following "ten pins" have .been set up by the radicals of Clinton county, to be knocked down by the democrats; For Assembly, R. B. CALDWELL, of Renovo. (Subject to the decision of the Leg. Con.) For Prothonotary, WILLIAM FEARON, of Lock Haven. For Register and Recorder, JOSEPH R. KINDIG, of Renovo. For County Treasurer, REV. J. R. KING, of Woodward. For County commissioner, WILLIAM A.

Court was well attended this week. Judge Mayer, we are pleased to say, was able to preside and appears to have im proved health. Many cases for violation of the local option law were befoio court this week, some 30 indictnlents all from the other side of the county. Two cases were dis posed of on Tuesday, parties from Belle fonte, who were sentenced to SIOO fine, 30 days in the county prison, and costs. Tne other cases will receive the same sen tence.

It i* of the utiuoei practical importance, then, in the wintry weather, to know noise much how to cure a celd as to avoid it. Cold always come* from one cause—turns part of the body be ing colder than natural .for a time. If a per*oii will keep hi* feet warm always, and never allow himself or herself to be chilled, ho or she w ill never take cold in a lifetime ; and thi* can only be accomplish ed by due care in warm clothing and avoidance of drafts and exposure. While multitudes of cold* come from cold feet, perhaps the majority arise from cooling off too quickly after becoming a little warmer than is natnral, from exercise or work, er front confinement to a warm apartment.

Yesterday one of Mr. * Wine's daughters couoluded to put r some butler down in tlie well to cool, aud persuaded Iter brother to let her 1 down iu the well for amusement, which bad been frequently done be j i fore, lie finally concluded to let her ! down, and waa drawing her up, and when near the top the foul air that \ was iu the well made her insensible, and she fill out of the tub to the hot ' torn, ller father, as soon as the ac ' cident was known, came out and let !' his son down to bring her up. lie lis.l hardly reached the bottom before be became insensible from tlie foul air or damp. No other help beiug near Mr. Wino raised un alarm by ringing the bell. The neighbors came 'iu from all quarters. Among the first j there was a young man uamed Wiu-| . tield Hanks. Without stopping to „ inquire about the condition of the . well he was let down with a r°| )0 j bring up ouo of tlio bodies, wu while; | euguged in tyiug the rope he became insensible. The excitement by this time became intense. A little more i precaution was now manifested.

No oue else daring ' to go down, a grappling-book was at tached to a rope aud tlie bodies of the ; other two were brought out, Ijile being j extinct, lly this time a large crowd of people had arrived, and gave deep: expressions of sympathy for the, friends of the dead. It was oue ol lhi-j most heartrending scenes ever wit nessed iu this neighborhood. Miss Wiue was about eighteen years of age, an accomplished young lady.. Her brother, about twauly-oue, had just returned from college to speud hisj vacation, but he was destiued never, to return. Young Mr. Hanks was a son of our townsman, J. D. Hanks, about twenty-two years of age; a young mau of bright prospects. He iiad been married just two weeks be-] fore the sad calamity occurred. His voung widow is heartbroken, lbc grief of the frieuds cannot be express cd. A gloom it cast over our commu nity which we hope never to witness again. • ♦ • [From the Sau Diego World, Aug. I.] From our friend Captain Bailey wc gel the following horrifying particu lars of the danger of attempting to cross the Colorado desert without at -utiicient supply of water: A few days! before the James surveying party reached Coyote Wells, the driver of ( the Yuma stage brought word to: Charley Ellis, keeper of the that he had seen a man on the desert who seemed to be bewildered and was,< wandering about without purpoac. Ellis at once mounted his mule and started in search of him. Almut a , mile and a half from the \N ella he found the man lying on the sand • sucking the blood from his aim, which he had lacerated horribly, for the pur- i pose of quenching his thirst Ellis brought him ioto the station aud gave him all the attention his case demand- i ei. The intense suffering he bail undergone had affected his mind, and although bis physical health was fully restored liy the care bestowed on him | by Mr. Ellis, his tniud was still affect ed, and it will probably be some time before he recovers the use of his facul- 1 tics.
