Measures have been enforced in

Our authorities should enforce the

with which our (,owes and cities arc

er and sold, and the proceeds divided
among the , Sanitary and Christian
Commissions, tho SubsisteneOCommit

would be a very judicious and praise
worthy-manner in which to dispose of
the drapery, and no objection should
beraised against it.
The Advance of Improvement.
Apathy sometimes receives a good
lesson from industry, as, is evident in
the signs of things in this place. No
prig was over to our knowledge put
to as profitable advantage in the build.
I tng and improvement line as the pres
ent; dilapidated structures have been
tom down or removed to give place to
palatial residences, and beautiful and
ornamental fences now'adorn places
where crooked and rotten post and
,railings were once to be seen ; and we
must .commend the .enterprise of car•
thin of our ;nerd:lents in making iM
proven:lents in and about their places
of besiness. 'The spirit of neatness,
.order and improw.ements, has pervaded
;to a general extent here, and the ap
pearance of the-town will show to a
hotter advantage. - • =
There is however, one great draw
back to-the more rapid and general
: advance of improvement, and that is
;the extreme scarcity of laboring hands
.—hoth mechanics and artisans. Money
is no object to the builder if ho can
only secure the labor, and in coase
ancece high prices aro demanded and
reh'el:Ved by the laborer. •A. very fit
'vorable chance thus presents itself to
distant workmen who are out of em
ployment.

Talton for Booth.
The following paragraph we clip
from the - • Ohambersburg Repository.
Of the truthfulness of the statement
ate are ready to vouch, having dropped
into the "barber shop," which, by the
way, is on Railroad Street,' arid heard
the description given of the supposed
Booth, and many speculations as to
where ho was and what he would do.
Not desiring to create any unnecessary
excitement , we forbore' saying any
thing in relation to it; but now time
reveals the circumstance, and the story
speaks for itself. We understand, so
high was the excitement occasioned
by the excited barber that men imme
diately went into the country to'seirch
for the supposed assassin, and obtain
the high reward offered for his capture:
To tell the truth, tho manner, in which
the story was told by the barber at
the time, would hero caiscid th 4 - most
incredulous tobelieve hill], and NV . O are
not surprised to hear that men went in
search of him
"Our townsman J. Allison Eystor,
Esq., narrowly escaped` arrest in Hun.
tingdon last week on the suspicion
that ho calls the veritable J..W. Booth,
the murderer of the President. He
had gone there on a visit to his broth
er.in.law, Hon. John Scott, and went
into a barber shop to get . shaved. He
ordered the barber to shave off .his
moustache, which was done, and after
the operation was performed Mr. By-•
ster walked out to the house of his rel.
ativo. ks soon as he left the shop, the
barber declared that he was Booth;
that he knew Booth well and had sha
ved him in the oil regions. Of course
an intense excitement was aroused.
The news spread through the town
with lightning speed that 'Booth had.
been in the place. The•hotelS•Were all
examined,' bdt •no such person lied
stopped at any of them, and suspicion
was confirmed by the fact that the
suspected individual must bo seereted
somewhere about the town.. Mr. By.
stcr was not out of the house during
the evening, and therefore ignorant of
the excitement he had created ; and it
was not until the next morning when
be appeared on - the street with Mr.
Scott, that the blunder vas disoavered.
Now that Booth has been 'captive&
and killed, we presume that Mr. By
ster will- feel:safe in venturing frond,
home again." • •

Ceased Shipment
The Broad Top, coal operators haVe
ceased shipping the product over the
railroad in consequence of the high de
mands of freight carriage. This is a
serious occurrence, and we know not
how long it will continuo, as the opera
tors are detomined not to ship until
the price of freight is reduced. .
The present chitrges for transporta
tion of coal on the 11.A.8. T. R. R. is
as follows : In H. &B. T. Cars, 2000
Ms, $1,10; in B cars for Reading and
points beyond, 93 cents; in ditto for
points in Lebanon Valley R. R. $1;
in Penna. and other cars for way trado,
$1 Threo cents per ton, additional, is
charged on coal from the 'three loWer
Switch Backs, and five cents per ton
on the : two upper Switch Backs, and
from the now road on Six Mile Mir'.
The U. S. tax of two and a half per
cent is added to all freight bills. These
charges connected with those on the
Pennsylvania Contral has produced the
suspension of shipment.
A Commendable Purchase
Prof. 11. Coyle last week purchased
one of the celebrated Piano; manu
factured by Steck & Co., New York,

Prof. Coyle. has been a resident of
this place for six years or more, ,dur
ing which time ho has beenr . highly
successful in his profession but never

An Item for Boys.
The following item is ono of pecu
liar bearing and interest to the boys in
our midst, and it
. would be well for
their welfare if they would heed it :
"A pretentious boy's character is
soon revealed by his boisterous speech,
empty:headed - noisy foot
steps, and noisy conduct in general
wherever and whenever ho moves for
the purpose of discharging the service
required of him. Such a boy, when
known finds it difficult to get a place,
and stilt more difficult to keep it after
he get - s it. so diss , .reeable does he.
Make himsolf to all Zim he is brought
in contact, with. Boy should, there
fore,:remember this,
t 9 wit: that much
of the capital whieh secures success in
business, consists of good brooding,
affable pleasant manners, unostonta
tions and orderly deportment."
Accident.
Mrs: Peightal, of Woodcock valley,'
while in Henry's store on Saturday
last,engagod in looking at goods, came
in contact with the movable hatchway,
and immediately descended to the low
er floor. In the passage down she ba'd
her right arm.dislocated and'her left
hand injured. She was carried to
Dcan's hotel where medical attendance
Was ordered; and so far
_recovered as
to leave for her home the same day.
We understand 'that the hatchway
alluded to is' a dangerotisonejut we
believe since this occurrence proper
steps will be taken by. the firm to pre
vent future mishaps.
