The nominations arc over, and the
excitement has ended, and every body
knows who "made it." The next thing to
know is where to get your groceries cheap
est and of best quality. That place is at
SechJerA Co's, in the Bush house block.
They are tamou* for selling cheap. AW
understand that tbe detested candidate?
bare made up their minds to get back the
money spent in seeking tor a nomination
by purchasing their groceries of Sechler A
Co. Sensible indeed, for they will makt
it the re sure, and if they keep on dealing
with that firm they will find out before a
twelve-month, that they save more by it
than if they had obtained the be? t county
office.
Last Saturday was a "big" day for
Pie *ant Gap.
The Third Nines of Centre Hall,
With bat and ball,
looted it over the mountain, to try their
hands against the Pleasant Gapers. We
suppose they met with a grand reception,
finding houses decorated, and the people
in their Sundy-go-to-moctin§. Using, thi
hotel man, has an account in bank since,
and no doubt the close of the day saw
more empty beer kegs in his yard than
ever before- The Centre Hall Nines cann
off victorious, and returned in good glee,
much to the relief ol their anxious mamas
as their ages ran from C to 13, and there
was no tellen what might happen. How
ever, the little ones returned safe and sound
and in seasonable time to bavc their face*
washed and he put into their little bed*,
and dream of the great event.

We are glad to notice that Win. P.

Complaint has been made at this of

Q.J Fort to Union county. Come, gentle
men, give the people good roads, you have
collected enough tolls off the candidates

The heavy rain ste m which,passed
through our valley on Wednesday night,
4th inst., raised the tributaries of Penn
creek so suddenly that several bri-Jge.-
were swept away in Gregg township The
garden of Jonathan Condo, at Penn Hull,
was inundated ; the water carrying away
the fence and almost totally destroying its
contents. Frank Hosterman of the same
place, also suffered considerable damage
from the fences around his residence,
which were carried away. One of his out*
buildings was carried quite n distance into
in adjoining com field ; while tome of his
potatoes were found the next morning
hanging on the fences in the neighboring
fields.

COUXTKUKUTIXO IN Mi.-SOl'"Hl.—Some
eight years ago. Brown Weber and Gra
ham, wholesale druggist* in St. Louis,
were doing tho largest business in the
-State of Missouri. Among other goods
they sold large quantities of Specr's Port
Grupe Wine, which is pronounced the
pure t wine in the market. In 1868 one or
two members of the firm conceived the
idea of getting up a counterfeit of this wine
by making a cheap mixture of flavoring
ingredients with whisky and water, and
called it wine. With this itqff they filled
several thousand bottles, put on an a coun
terfeit lube! ofSpeer's wino. a coun .
torfeit of Mr. Alfred Speer's signature
over the cork, uud supplied a majority ol
the retail druggifrs throughout the coun
try west of the Mississippi River, who
purchased it of R. W. & G. as Speer's
genuine Port Grape Wine. The triok wtu
not discovered until the consumor*
turned tho fluff to their druggists as net fli
for use. Hearing of this in 18C9, Mr. Speer
at ,01106 went from New Jerse/ to St. Lou
is, employed detectives, and traced the
! head quarters for dealing in this iniitalior
of his wine to the pin. oof Brown, \\ ebet
and Graham. He commenced suit lot
$30,000,00 damages In the United Statei
Court Such deception on the part of this
house caused tjjem to loose their business,
and before the tri.il canui off the tlrm fail
ed. and became worthies*. This *tutl i
now out of existence, having spilled and
httr-t the hottlis, so that none U now
to le found in the market. The large
yield from the New Jersey vineyards the
last few years ha- enabled Mr Spoer tore
duce the ptice • I his wine His New Jcr
•e\ l*i .11 far-upcrior to any heretofore
put in market ; none of which is bottled
until four years old. It Is prescribed by
physisnu - a the bc-i and most reliable
wine to be had. Most Druggists through
out the country sell Spoer's Fort Grape

signi tied his readiness.
Mr Le-ley' experience has been that
six months' held work require* at least six
month s office work ; but publishing add
still more to the required time. We were
for: natc in gUi->g s > much office work
done last winter, so t..it the crops could
be left free as early as May to take the
field again Next winter the amount of
■ ffice work ought to be greater; anJ it
will rcouire both skill a>td judgment to
prepare the work <•' 1p75 for speedy publi
cation in 1876. We had only four months
of lield work lust year. This year wre will
have six and it is to bo hoped seven. Last
rear we had tut fife districts occupied. .
This year we have virtually ten; as will
appear when the details are stated.
Finances of the Survey.
But ihivji Tease of work involves art
ir. rc.i-o of expenditure, the continuance
of the pre-ent force next year will be im

of such a lutvev. The slate of the financ

The details of the work accomplished'
this season thus fur is, shortly, as follows :'
Mr. Prime has surveyed the limestone
country lying between his mapof last year
ind the Lehigh river, and if commencing
his .-urvcy of Northampton county, which
he hopes to complete this fall, so much o<"
it as lies between the edge of the slato and
thegnci>. Mr. Frazor has added to bis'
last year's map of the ore belts of York
and Adams, and has mapped a good deal:
of the north border of new red and south

this belt to the Maryland line. Mr. De

work has been in the Trough creek coal
basin. They have discovered eleven small
coal beds, of no practical value, in Side- 1

He has superintended Mr. Sanders map-!

and Morrison Cove, which will bo finished
this season and Mr. Fagen's observations
of the iron and zinc ores. Mr. Piatt has
also superintended Mr. Young's' statisti

geology perfectly plain. The rest of the
season they will survey Washington coun

Much inquiry has been made for tbc

pointed, coutpored of Jan. Unit liatn and T
C. Hippie, Kr,j., and Dr. Larimer, in i

They have not yet made their report.
Stone hat been a hard drinker, and th< i

that affects him, instead of some otber kind ,
of lunacy. Stone denies that he is married <
