A COWARDLY ASSAULT.—On Tuesday night
of last week, some cowardly, unmitigated
scoundrel entered the house of Patrick Kelly,
and beat him in a manner that would have
done credit to a band of hostile savages. Mr.
Kelly was sitting in his house at the time of
the attack, and was struck on the head with
some heavy weapon before he could make
any resistance. Ile was knocked senseless
the first blow dealt him by this inhuman and
out-lawed fiend, and in this condition, was
beaten'unmercifully. We doubt not but that
it was the intention of this scoundrel to take
the life of Kelly, as he was blacked and dis
guised. Mr. Kelly is pretty certain that he
knows the villain, and as soon as the neces
sary proof can be obtained, purposes having
the rascal arrested. He was accompanied
by a low, contemptible vagabond, who was
compelled to leave town last winter, on a
charge of theft, and who had better keep dark
or he will be sent to the State Institution in
Allegheny City yet. Kelly has not, as yet,
brought suit against the atrocious whelp, as
a few friends prevailed upon him to delay
the prosecution. We hope the leader of the
party may be arrested, and the law meted out
to him in a manner which he so richly de
serves. We think it is the duty of our citi
zens to assist Kelly in ferreting out the black
hearted wreath, and not let him go unwhip
ped of Justice.
BOLD ROBBERY.—We learn that on Thurs
day night last, a man in the employ of Mr.
James Myton, of Shaver's Creek, this coun
ty, stole from the pantaloons pockets of Mr.
Myton, forty-five dollars, and made good his
escape. The man (whose name is not known)
bad been in the employ of Mr. Myton only
three days, and on the morning in question,
it appears that he got up before day-light, to
make a fire as Mr. Myton supposed. Both
the men slept in one room, and when the
stranger arose, Myton observed him reaching
against the wall, where his pantaloons were
hanging, but took no notice of it, as .he
thought the man was looking for matches.—
When Myton got up he missed his pocket
book directly, and it then struck him that
that was the article the man was reaching
for, instead of matches, as he supposed. He
immediately instituted search for the rascal,
but he was not to be found. The thief came
to this place, got shaved at one of the barber
shops, and then left for parts unknown.
CIRCUS ITEMS.—The fellow that walked
fifteen miles to see the Circus, arrived in town
at 8.30 A. N., with a new quarter and some
odd change.
The attendance came fully up to our ex
pectations, taking into consideration the scar
city of odd quarters.
The whole concern was a Circus—the per
formance fair, and less rowdyism accompany
ing it than others that have visited our town.
Our town b'hoys were determined to outdo
the showmen in rowdyism, and they took the
premium—strychnine whiskey—which help
ed them to get into several "scratches" du
ring the day and night.
THE FASHION.--A city cotemporary, in de
sCribing the prevailing fashions for gentlemen
in that city, says there is an intensity of style
about Young America which is decidedly re
freshing. In fashionable parlance "there is
a change." Bloated beavers and shanghai
sacks are gone ; the latest in vogue is a wash
bowl head covering, a monkey-jacket, and a
pair of funnel-legged trowserloons. Whis
kers must be taken off and moustaches kept
on. Shoes are the rage. Gloves always are
worn, and sticks generally carried. To be
without a pipe or Meerschaum holder on the
promenade is most unbecoming and vulgar.
SUDDEN DEATH.—We learn that Henry
Houpt, one of the first settlers on Broad Top,
was found dead in his corn field on Monday
a week last. lie had went to work during
the day in his usual good health, being 72
years of age, and never having been sick, and
was found dead in the evening. An inquest
was held by Esq. Evans, and the verdict of
the jury was that he died of apoplexy. Mr:
H. was born on Broad Top, and lived there
all his life.
ANOTILER BOUQUET.—On'Triday last wo re
ceived from our neighbor, Mrs. Massey, the
most magnificent bouquet of the season. It
contains thirty-two varieties.
AND STILL ANOTHER.—Abeautifulbouquet
was left at our Sanctum on Friday evening
last, for our better-half, by a young lady who
neglected to leave her name.
A DEFENCE of ASUNIAGEDDON, or Our Great Co/entry
.Foretold to the Holy Scriptures. In two Discourses.—
Delivered in the Capitol of the United States, at the
Request of several members of Congress, on the
Anniversary of Washington's Birth-day, 1357.
This is one of the most popular books of
the day--just issued from the press, and for
sale at Lewis' Cheap Book, Stationery and
Music Store.
INKS AND FLOlDS.—Arnold's, Hodgson's,
and Harrison's Writing Fluids—Bussier's,
Harrison's, and Hoover's Black, Red and
Blue Inks, Copying Fluids, and Indelible
Inks, just received, and for sale at Lewis'
Boo)1 and Stationery Store.
MR. EDITOR : —As per announcement, the
Circus made its appearance in our town on
Thursday last. About nine o'clock, crowds
of country folks could be seen coming into
town, all bent upon seeing the "show."—
With no little impatience did they, as well
as your reporter, await the hour for the
"show" to commence. At last, the hour ar
rived, and the way the " quarters" had to
fly, was a caution to the "hard times" which
all complain so much of. Being a reporter,
and as reporters are " dead heads" to all such
places, I wended my way to the "big tent,"
paid my quarter (!) and went in. Of the mer
its of the concern, I shall not speak, but let
those who were present judge for themselves,
as I do not get paid for puffing . Circuses.—
Suffice it to say, they didn't do all the bills
called for. The man with nine small chil
dren and a. dog, and who don't take a newspa
per was there, and when " Pete Jenk ins" came
tumbling into the ring, exclaimed, " Oh, there
he's killed!" I turned and look at the man to
see whether he was in full earnest or not,
and found to my surprise, that he was.. I
gave the ignorant creature a pitiful look, and
then turned my gaze upon the inimitable
"Pete." In the evening I repeated the dose.
There were quite a sprinkle of ladies there,
anxious to see and be seen. No doubt, they
were very much pleased, at least, so they
seemed. After the "show" was out, then
the fiat commenced. Captain Whiskey then
reigned supreme. I witnessed no less than
about five little skirmishes, in about fifteen
minutes, which was disgraceful to the actors,
but fun for me. One poor fellow, in a skir
mish, lost his hat and watch. The hat was
recovered, but the watch is 11011, est. During
the day, I saw several men, if such they be,
stretched, full length, on their backs, upon
the pavement, dead drunk. I pity such crea
tures to the bottom of my heart. May they
see the error of their way, and repent, ere it
is too late. That's about all I- have to say
of the Circus. Perhaps I have said too much.
If you think so, don't print it.

The different candidates for nomination in
the Opposition party, are waging war against
each other, and every one wants to know of
his neighbor, what claims he has on the peo
ple of the county, that he should ask for an
office. Every one has his just claims, no
doubt.
I learn that our friend, Mr. John A. Nash,
of the American, is also a candidate. Well,
I think John's claims are about as good, if
not better, than a great many I have heard
named in connection with the office of Coun
ty Treasurer. lie has served his party faith
fully, and has never, as yet, received but very
little compensation for his arduous labors.—
Should he - receive the nomination,, and be
elected to the office, I know of no other man
iu the Opposition party, who would make a
better officer. I don't wish to create the im
pression that I am "puffing" Mr. Nash, for
a consideration. I am not. It is public
opinion, and I do it because I think Mr.
Nash deserves the office. I don't wish the
other candidates to think that I am partial,
either. Their claims may be equally as
strong as Mr. Nash's for aught I know.
MILITARY ELECTION.—On the Gth inst., the
Companies in this county, elected the follow
ing officers :
Brigadier General—P. 11. Lane.
Brigade Inspector—Geo. W. Garrettson.
Colonel—J. S. Burkett.
Lieut. Colonel—Geo. W. Patterson.
Major—John S. Miller.
EXCELSIOR ICE CREAM SALOON.-Our friend
Shaw still continues to serve up Ice Cream
at his stand, in the most superb style. He
makes good Cream, and the quantity he
gives for a "picayune," is astonishing. Call
on Shaw, and try his deliciously flavored
compound.
THE CENTRAL BANS.—This institution is
located at Hollidaysburg, and has been for
several days closed to its noteholders. Some
few days previous to the Bank closing, the
Standard of that place, declared it to be one
of the soundest institutions in the State.
GOOD PICTURES.-W. J. Cunningham has
removed his traveling car from Smith street,
to the Diamond, where he is prepared to take
Ambrotype, Melainotype, or Photograph Pic
tures in a style equal to the best in the coun
try. Give him a call.
TILE F,ESTIVAL.—The Excelsior Brass Band
Festival at the Court House on Saturday
evening last, was reasonably well attended.
The good things all disappeared, and the
Band requests us to return thanks to all who
gave them a call.
LARGE RIIUDARB.-Mr. Jackson White pre
sented us with a specimen of mammoth rhu
barb, growing in his garden, which we think
very hard to beat by any of our gardeners.—
Two of the leaves weighed 2!l f pounds.
130" - Preparations are making to have a
burst-up in town on the 4th. Don't wait un
til the spirit shall move all—the young men
and young ladies must put and keep the ball
in motion.
Ile"' An old lady in town who read in the
papers that Jack Frost had destroyed a large
number of gardens, is still anxious to hear of
his arrest.

VEDICAL SCIENCE.
The history of "1100FLAND'S GERMAN BIT
TERS," the most remarkable medicine of the day, and
the many cures that have been performed with it in cases
of LIVER COMPLAINT, DYSPEPSIA, NERVOUS DE
BILITY, and diseases arising from a disordered liver or
stomach, place it among the most astonishing discoveries
that have taken place in the medical world. The diseases
to -which these Bitters are applicable are so universal, that
there are but few of our friends Who may not test their
virtues in their own families or circle of acquaintances,
and prove to their own satisfaction that there is at least
one remedy among the many advertised medicines, deser
ving the public commendation. It is a fact that, in the
minds of many persons, a prejudice exists against what
are called Patent Medicines; but why should this prevent
you resorting to an article that has such an array of teoc
timony to support it as Hootland's German Bitters? Phy
sicians prescribe it, Why should you discard it? Judges,
usually considered men of talent, have and do use it in
their own families. Why should you reject it? Clergy
men, and those the most eminent, take it; why should
not you, Let not your prejudice usurp your reason, to
the everlasting injury of your health; if you are sick, and
require a medicine, try these Bitters.
These Bitters are prepared and sold by Dr. C. M, Jack
son, Ice. 418 Arch street, Philadelphia, Pa., and by drug
gists and storekeepers in every town and village in the
United States, Canadas, West Indies, and South America,
at 75 cents per bottle. See that the signature of C. M.
Jackson is on the wrapper of each bottle.

Gents: I am requested by Mr. T. A. C. Cochrane, of this
place, to say to you that on the morning of the 4th inst.,
about 3 o'clock, his store took fire, and the entire stock of
goods was destroyed. The heat became so suddenly intense
that none of the goods could possibly be saved; but fortu
nately his books and papers, which were in one of your
Champion safes, were all preserved perfectly. And well
they may be called Champion, for during the whole con
flagration there was ono incessant pouring of flame direct
ly upon the safe which contained them. And still, upon
opening it, the inside was found to be scarcely warm; while
the outside was most severely scorched. Yours truly,
