alo.it a poisoning case in Hartley twp ,
we are pleased to learn that the parties
accused arc again released. The L-wi--
burg Journal says, the parties were brought
before court on 29 ult., where I>r Loom is
and Prof. Tustin presented a j-cport to the
effect that they made a thorough analysis
of the stomach of the deceased, and that
there was not the lea.-t trace of poison to
be found. This report will of course be
proof sufficient that Wm. Kline did not
die of arsenic. Altogether, though it was
very unpleasant for them to be in prison,
it will be better for them in the end ; for
if there had been no examination the sus
picion against them might have lived for
years.
James A. Bryan, a native of this

Jackson county, lowa, ha* come to grief
for embezzling to the amount of $41,000
We make the following extract from the
Maquokcta, lowa, Sentinel:
The long agony is over ! The defaul
ting treasurer of this county has been ad
judged guilty of embezzlement Official
thieving has received a stinging rebuke,
outraged justice has been vindicated, and
tho people breathe easier. On Monday
morning last the jury in the case of the
State of lowa vs Jas. A. IJryan , late trea
surer, brought in a verdict of guilty, sup
lementcd by the sentence of the court to
three years imprisonment in the State
penitentiary and a fine of $41,000.
James A. Bryan, the subject of this ar
ticle was born in Centre county, Pennsyl
vania, and is about 42 years •of age. He
came to this city and county some eigh
teen years ago, having a jewelry store on
Main street. The panic of '57 used him
up, however, and in 1860 he removed to
Andrew, where he engaged in the mer
cantile business in a small way, and laid
the groundwork of that personal popular
ity which induced his fellow citizens to
honor him with three terms in the county
treasurer's office by large majorities.
A malicious act was perpetrated by
some person at the Trout Eishery of Hon.

running into the Fishery, which soon left
them without water and caused the death
of thirteen hundred and eighty-three trout,
some of them weighing over three and a
half pounds.

MULUKIU. Aug. 3rd, IS7L
MX. EDITOR:— The good people of the
county, and especially those from our
side seecm altogether unconcerned about
a candidate for County Commissioner.
It is an offlce'of vast importance, and
should be filled by honest, reliable, hard
working men—men who earn their bread
by the sweat of their brows, and know
how t > dispose of the county money, as :t
should be, and not squander it, as is some
times the case. In presenting a man to
the people, who is fully worthy of a liber
al patronage, aud one who would make a
good officer as well as a shrewd business
man, 1 could think of none better quali
fied nor none more werlhy t than Mr.
F. F. Jamison, of Gregg. Mr. Jamison
has not said anything as regards tbe| nom
ination whatever, but 1 trust, if the citi
zens of Centre county would see fit to
nominate him, he would not refuse to
serve them if elected He has never held
any office of interest in the county, not
withstanding he.has done more for the in
terest of the party, than the majority of
those who hold office have, and aside of
atl this he is a man that make* his living
by laboring hard. We ask nothing more
than our right, nnd if that is looked to as
it ought to be, wo feel sure that such a
man will receive more than passing no
tice. PENS.

I*. S- Fisher—Legislature.
In the selection of candidates for Assem
bly the Democrat.c party of Centre coun
ty determines the men who are to repre
sent the county in the Legislature the
coming two years. Not only will our
representatives exert an influence on the
legu- latum of this Stale but Will help to !
select a man to represent Pennsylvania in
the U. S. Senate.
Out of the long array of candidate* cer
tainly two good ones eau be found. We
recommend the claims of but one- -Dr.
Puilip S. Fisher. Young and vigorous,
ardently devoted to his county, a friend
and pfitriot of the people, watchful and
honest, he should zealously guard the in
terests ct his constituent*. He is a strong
advocate of the Lewisburg, Cenlte Jc
Spruce Creek Railroad and of all measures
tending to promote the moral and ma
terial interests of the people. It is true in
the Legislative halls we need the presence
of hoary-headed sager who will bring
forward wise coun-els from the history of
the past. But we also need tberu the
"fiery heart of youth" whose eye is fixed
on futurity and shapes his course accord
ingly. Such a one is Dr. Fisher. Filled
with the spirit of the age he would be
equal to the times und reflect honor on
Centre county. Give him a hearty sup
port. G. D. <.

SPAWLS FROM I'KNN.
The whooping cough has laid hold on a
good many grown people in our section ot
this county, and n* a general thing bear*
very hard on them as well at on the little
folks.
"Shakespeare," in last week's Beiichter
was very inquisitive. I think his thoughts
run in a somewhat different direction, to
what they did when he expressed hi* only

A party from Milesburg made their ap
pearance in Millheim on Saturday, taking
for a come off, that they had come to play
baso-kall with the Millheim club, but the
rain spoiled their game, consequently
they remained until night, and instead of
base ball had a grand hop at Sheriff Mus
ser's. The occasion was a—well, it was so
so, a little too wet for some. Ceal-ilo.
Candidates for delegates to he elected
on Saturday are not quite so numerous, as
they are for some of the other offices.
Nevertheless they should he ab'e men,
such that can he relied on, and will fill
their offices unto the end desired.
Cutting oats, heads the farmers' pro
gramme, but will soon be struck off. and
something else inserted instead. Not
withstanding the injury that the oats re
ceived during the dry weather in the fore
part *f the summer, it is doing well.
Some fanners have better crops in this
line, than they had last year.
The Aaronshurgers had a celebration on
last Saturday. The affair was an enjoy
able one, though the rain slightly marred
the general festivities of the day.
Stones are good in their places, but when
a vicious female gathers a handful to hurl
at your head, they are unquestionably out
of place. We recently saw a wralhy
feminine gather a fistful, and then tell a
certain fellow to "dig out," and he dug
out in hot haste.

GRASSHOPPERS GOING EAST
St. I'aul, Minn., July 31.—The grass
hoppers are rapid y moving eastward in
myriads and will doubtless reach Wiscon
sin, perhaps Illinois, before the flying
season is past. They arc reported to day
very abundant at a number of points far
cast at the former scene of activity. Even
in this city several gardens arc overrun
with them. All the damage late comer*
can now do is to deposit eggs which will
hatch out millions of devastating insects
for another year. It is now absolutely
certain that other Slate* than this will
complain of the scourge next year, and if
the clouds of insects continue the present
movement even central and eastern Slates
will not escape.

There were in the magazine at the lime
