We take pleasure this week in call

Bitters." It is the only Tonic for the
Invalid that commends itself. Our
Druggist, E. Van Wagenen;in this

months, and in every instance it gave
satisfaction. Now is the time to use
tho Bitters.
Hooflani's Bitters is entirely free from alto

Is a combination of all the ingredi•
cute of the Bitters, with pure Santa
Cruz Rum, orange, anise, &e. It is
used for the same diseases as the Bit

of rare medical value, and most agree
able to the palate.

BANKRUPTS AND BANKRUPTCY —Since
the passage of the Bankrupt Act eleven
hundred and one petitions 'in bank
ruptcy have been filed in the United
States District Court for the Western
District of Pennsylvania, and five hun
dred and seventy-four discharges have
been granted. So, but a little over
one half of the applications have, to
use a common phrase, "got through."
The reason of this in nearly every
case, is the neglect of the applicant, or
his inability to pay the necessary
charges. in this district, wo are in
formed, a number of discharges aro
withhold on account of the fees not
being paid. We advise such and all
others who intend availing themselves
of the act, to do so without delay, as
the present law, or at least tho mate•
rial section of it, will expire with the
present year.
To The Purchasing Public
A call is extended to visit McNeil's
Ladies' and Gents' Furnishing goods
establishment, corner of the Diamond
and acquire satisfaction by inspection
that nothing in his line can be found
better or cheaper elsewhere. Why, a
man can go there and array himself
from top to toe in underwear that fits
to a T. and deck himself with the
prettiest of neck-ties, collars, cuffs and
gloves. A lady can do the same in ar
ticles pertaining to feminine use, and
render herself sweet and pretty in col
ors of the rainbow, or others more
quiet.
The Temple of Fashion now oon•
tains a heavy and handsome stock of
good; is just the place to purchase holi•
day presents, and articles can be found
there to suit the length of any purse.
December 23-Itl
Teachers , Institute
We . publish the proceedings of the
Teachers' Institute which assembled
last week in this place, in another col
umn. There was a very good atten
dance of teachers, and their meetings
from day to day wore interesting and
productive of much good to the teach
ers and our citizens who attended.—
The Readings of Miss Haley and
Mrs. Randall wore universally admir
ed, .and the instruction imparted by
Profs. Fisher, Boyd and others, was
rich and rare. The exercises of the
pupils of the Soldiers' Orphan School
added greatly to the pleasure of all
present. The teachers were no doubt
all pleased with the Convention as it
is a means of bringing them together fur
social greeting and mutual instruction
in their profession. The Institutes ac
complish but little in our estimation if
.they don't do this.
STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.—[Ion.
Thomas H Burrowes has accepted the
Presidency of this College tendered to
Mai by the Trustees a month or so
ago, and has submitted a plan for its
re organization embraeing, among oth:•
ere, the following features: One stu
dent to be admitted from each county
of the State, free (except board) and
one from each county for every twelve
thousand of its population. The Col
lege will accommodate' four hundred
students, and will be supported by the
interest of the proceeds of certain laud
scrip donated by , the United States.
The plan was approved, and will bo
carried into execution as soon as the
details can be arranged.
m.Another change of nickel coins
has been inaugurated. The new coins
are fa be composed of one-fourth nick
el and three-fourths copper. The ono
cent coin weighing a grain and a half,
is about the size of the old silver five
cent pieces; the three and five cent
pieces, about the size of the coins that
are now in use, are to weigh three
and five grains respectively. We aro
opposed to such a system of experi
meriting and would greatly prefer
something etable to something elegant
in the way of small coins.
Church Reopening
The M. E. Church in Cassville, hav
ing been remodeled, repaired, and en

&petal Correepoodence of Pltteburg Commercial
HUNTINGDON, PA. Doe. 14, 1868
This is one of the eldest settlements
in the interior, and, the population
consisting mainly—until within the
past few years—of old families, nearly
all connected with each other by in
termarriages, possessed with little or
no enterprise; the town was consid
ered as finished, being as was sup.
posed as large al it could be built, up
on the level ground extending back
to the hills.
J. Edgar Thompson, (the President
of the Pennsylvania Railroad and now
candidate for United States Senator)
saw ate° early date after the completion
of the road, what the people here were
too dull to perceive, that the town
must necessarily increase, and as it
could not well climb the hills, it must
extend westwardly; and so he pur
chased a largo farm immediately ad
joining and fronting along the rail
road, which lie laid out into lots, and
Within the last few years aided by an
impression which obtained in some
way, and which was uncontradicted
by him or his agents, succeeded in sell
ing them for a handsome profit on his
investment. The impression was that
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
would erect large repair shops at this
point, and that the shops at Mifflin
would be removed to this place, cer
tain largo reservations having been
made in the sale of lots, which wore
said to he for the site thereof. Possibly
something of this kind was needed to
stimulate a dull population into activ
ity; the result is that the population
has nearly or more than doubled with
in a few years, and the demand for
houses has stimulated a further specu
lative purchase still westwardly of
Mr. Thompson, which is now being
sold oat in lots with a fair-prospect of
success.
This latter is a domestic enterprise,
and is somewhat_ stimulated by the
erection of a factory for carriage work
and furniture, and the prospect of a
similar one for making stoves and oth
er castings. I hear also of projects fur
nmanufacturing•glass, the materials for
which aro convenient. ' Also, iron
works are spoken of, and I can readi
ly see for myself the feasibility of this
latter project, as the raw materials in
the shape of ore and coni, aro constant
ly passing through here, destined for
Danville, for Johnstown, for Hollidays
burg, and other places, where they are
made into iron. The saving of freight
by stopping them here would alone be
a good profit. Coal is rather cheaper
here than in Pittsburg; the quality
is different, however, but it is elaimOd
to be much hotter for manufacturing
purposes—certainly this is not the
case as a fuel.
,Rents and living aro decidedly
cheaper; in regard to the former, the
laboring class mostly own their own
dwellings, as lots;•50 by 150, are sold
at $2OO, and on credit at that.
Huntingdon, find, intends to insist
on the Hon. John Scott for United
States Senator, and a large delegation
of his friends will visit Harrisburg to
urge his claims. Teey will insist that
the State shall be represented by at
least one roan of a high order of talent,
able to make an imptession upon Con
gress by eloquence, legal learning and
unimpeachable inte'grity.
Much more did I learn during my
forced though not unpleasant stay
here, which I may write of again.
Ile—Con it be possible that over Five Mil
lion Bottles of Pfahtation Bitters have been
sold during the past year? It is almost he
credible, nevertheless it is absolutely true,
and is the most convincing proof of their won
derful medicinal and health-restoring quali
ties. Every family should be supplied with
those Bitters, at whatever cost or trouble it
may be to obtain them. Be careful that you
get the genuine, and that you are not impos
ed upon by a spiarious article.
