A lady, on Hill street, was very indignant,
the other day, at some one for halloaing out
of a second-story window. She said she had
no idea the place was a stable until she saw a
calf's head pop ont of a window, and she
might even then have been mistaken if she had
not heard it bawl. It is a most unsufferable
practice.
Knots of boys, and sometimes men, get on
the corners and lounging places, and make
remarks about females that pass. This is a
a most reprehensible practice. No brave boy
or man will make a remark derogatory of a
female. It is downright cowardice to do so.
A boy or man could resent the insult, but a
woman is not expected to.

A GREAT CALAMITY.-1,000 lives lost through
sheer negligence, from the gffects of a very
slight cold; but which, in an incredibly short
time, turned to that fatal disease, consumption,
and ere the easy victims were aware, they
were hurled into Eternity. This might have
been averted by the timely use of Dr. Wen
gert's Memo BALM; for thousands, who have
been cured, are to-day living talking witnes
ses, testifying daily, to the great power and
abundant efficiency of this Medicine. By
curing coughs, the forerunners of more seri
ous and dangerous diseases, it saves unnum
bered lives and an amount of suffering not to
be computed. It challenges trial and con
vinces the most skeptical. Give it a trial ?*

COURT PROCEEDINGS.—CIVIL LIST--
FIRST WEEK.—Wood . Bacon vs. A. F. Wil
son's Adult's.
This was an action brought to recover twen
ty-four acres of land, being part of a tract
conveyed by A. P. Wilson, during his lifetime,
to the plaintiffs, for the consideration of $l,-
500, said twenty-four acres being held by title
set up by other parties. The case was com
promised by the parties, and withdrawn, after
proceeding a short distance with the testimo
ny, by defendants confessing judgment for
$1,500, with six months stay. Scott, Brown
& Bailey for plaintiffs; Speer, Petriken & Mas
sey for defendants.
Martin Weston, surviving Executor of Wil
liam Weston, dec'd., vs. William Johnston.
Action to recover on mortgage, given by de
fendant to plaintiff, for payment of a tract of
land in Warriorsmark township, April 16th,
1850, sold by decedent in his lifetime, but
never recorded by his executors until some
twenty years after his death. The prima facie
case of the plaintiff was made out by offering
in evidence the mortgage itself, and the de
fense consisted in the allegation that the en
tire debt had been liquidated and that the
mortgage was no longer a lien against the
property. To establish this a large number
of transactions were shown, in which it was
alleged the original owner had received from
the mortgage from time to time, certain
amounts of money and other considerations,
intended to be credited on the mortgage or
applied to the payment of the unpaid purchase
money for which the mortgage was given. A
very large amount of testimony was produced,
and the trial was tedious and protracted. Ver
dict for defendant. S. S. Blair and Petriken
for plaintiff; Speer, 31cAlurtrie & Fleming for
defendant.
Hannah Rudy for George Study vs. D. R. P.
Neely.
This was an action of trespass, brought to
recover the value of a mare sold by defendant
when Sheriff of this county, under an indem
nifying bond, on an execution issued by G.
Waller against Geo. Rudy, while claimed by
his wife, Hannah Rudy, as property inherited
from her father's estate. Verdict for the
plaintiff for $235.88. Speer for plaintiff ; Pe
triken for defendant.
Commissioners of Huntingdon county vs.
Jno. Nightwine and George Jackson.
This was an action brought by the Commis
sioners of Huntingdon county to recover a bal
ance on duplicate, of $125.50, with interest
from October 1869. John Nightwine was, in
1367, appointed by the Commiisioners, a col
lector of taxes, in Henderson township, and
had given a bond, with Geo. Jackson as sure
ty, in the penal sum of $l2OO, conditioned for
the payment of all moneys collected on his
duplicate. The aforesaid balance was alleged
by the plaintiffs to be due on the duplicate for
which judgment was entered, which was staid
and defendant let into defense on his allega
tion that it had been paid and receipted for on
the duplicate. The defense consisted in the
testimony of the defendant, who testified that
he bad paid the full amount which was re
ceipted for in the back part of the duplicate,
which had afterwards been destroyed andlost.
Mr. Logan, who was then acting as Treasurer,
testified that no such payment had been made
by him at the time alleged by the defendant.
This was about all the testimony offered and
the question thus became one for the jury a s
to the reliability of the witnesses, or the pos
sibilities as to either of them being mistaken.
Verdict for plaintiff for $152. Musser and
Speer for plaintiff; Woods & Williamson for
defendant.
This case affereds another evidence of the
importance of exercising proper care in the
transaction of public as well as private busi
ness, and the careful preservation of all pa
pers and documents, which may be regarded
as evidence of moneys paid or received. Mr.
Nightwine is one of our most respectable citi
zens, and is regarded, not only as a strictly
honest, but as a very careful and correct bus
ness man. If, owing to a circumstance entire
ly unseen and unavoidable, he has thus been
deprived of the evidence of payment, and un
justly compelled to pay it over again, it is not
only a hard case, but a manifest wrong, which
the Commissioners would do themselves credit
by examining into before enforcing payment.
Josephine Leeds vs. August Koehler.
This was an action under the Sheriff's inter
pleader act, to recover the amount of certain
personal property, levied on and sold by the
defendant, as the property of the husband,
while claimed by the wife under a deed of
trust and bill of sale, from the fattier of her
husband. Verdict for plaintiff for the greater
portion of the property. Speer & Co. for
plaintiff; Lytle, Petrikin and Calvin for de
fendant.
Jacob Hoffman vs. John Bare.
This was an action to recover damages for
taking the water by defendant, from its nat
ural channel above the tannery of the plain
tiff, at Mt. Union, and not returning it on the
premises of the plaintiff, by which he had
been deprived of a sufficient amount to run
his tannery, thus compelling him to reduce
his force of workmen, and incur heavy loss
and inconvenience, amounting to as much as
$lOO a week.
The defense was that by building the dam,
and husbanding the water he had made it an
advantage instead of au injury to the piaintiff.
This case involved a great amount of testimo
ny and occupied over two days. Verdict for
plaintiff for $554. Speer for plaintiff; Woods
and Petrikin for defendant.
John lleiffner vs. Daniel Flenuer and James
Watson.
This was an action for damages, brought
against the supervisors of Walker township,
for filling up and obstructing the water, in the
mill race of the plaintiff, at 31'Connellstown,
while making a new public road. The dam
ages were laid by the plaintiff at $2OOO. The
plaintiff claimed that the water was damned
back on to the wheel by the road having been
made on a different site from that fixed by the
viewers.
The defense was that the road was opened
on the proper ground; that no debris had been
thrown in the race, and that in construating
it they had afforded a better fall to the water
than it had before. During the trial one of
the jurors was, by consent of counsel, on both
sides, withdrawn from the box, he having pub
licly expressed his opinion in the case. The
remaining eleven jurors, after being out all
night, rendered a verdict for defendant.
The case involved a large amount of testi
mony, and elicited quite an interest on the
part of the citizens of the neighborhood.—
Woods and Petriken for plaintiff; Speer & Co.
for defendant.
Matilda Robison, Administratrix of Levi
Briggs vs. William Cisney.
This was an action in which the plaintiff
claimed to recover money belonging to the
defendant, her father, in hislifetime. The de
fense was that the money was received under
a contract with decedent—his brother-in-law
who had lived with defendant for a short time
previous to his death, by which defendant was
to take care of him during his life, and secure
in consideration of the same, all that he had.
The claim amounted to $646, it being the
amount of an order to the Lewistown Bank,
produced by defendant, after the death of
Briggs, and received by him. Verdict for
plaintiff. Petriken for plaintiff; Woods ! &
Williamson for defendant.

IRON BRIDGE OVER THE MOUTH OF
STONE CREEK.—The Grand Jury having con
curred with the viewers in their opinion that
a new bridge should be erected over the
month of Stone Creek, at the expense of the
county, it only remains for the County Com
missioners to complete the structure should
they concur with the viewers and Grand Jury.
This they have done as will be seen by the
notice of letting the new structure.
A question here presents itself-I-of what
material should it be built ? wood or iron.
For durability and cheapness we say it should
be made of iron—when we say cheapness we
do not make it synoymous with lowest in
price—the best article is always the cheapest.
A wooden bridge will cost about one thous
and dollars exclusive of the stone-work or
abutments but is constantly liable to be burn
ed as was the old bridge—it must in the
course of nature decay, and need repairs or
re-building, and in case of a great flood might
be sweept away. Not so with an iron bridge—
s wrought-iron structure will last for ages—
fire cannot affect it—the floods may sweep it
for the time being from its foundation but it
can readily be taken apart and put up with
out any loss of material. The cost exclusive
of the abutments will not exceed two thous
and dollars. By all means the Commissions
should erect an iron bridge. Public opinion
will• sustain them. It would stand forever as
a monument to the immense, though as yet
scarcely developed, iron resources of Hun
tingdon county.
This is one of the wealthiest counties in
the Commonwealth in minerals—let the world
know it by seeing a magnificent iron bridge
close by the Penna. railroad, where thousands
of people pass every year. We think every
candid person will agree with us that in the
end an iron bridge will be the cheaper. Let
us progress.
How TO GO WEST.—This is an in
quiry which every one should have truthfully
answered before he starts on his journey, and
a little care taken in examination of Routes
will in many cases save much trouble, time
and money.
The "C. B. & Q. R. R." running from
Chicago, through Galesburg to Burlington,
and the "I. B. & W. Route," running from
Indianapolis, through Bloomington to Bur
lington, have achieved a splendid reputation
in the last two years as the leading Passenger
Routes to the West. At Burlington they con
nect with the B. & K. R. R. and form the great
Burlington Route, which runs direct through
Southern lowa to Nebraska and Kansas, with
close connections to California and the Terri
tories ; and passengers starting from Hun
tingdon county, on their way westward, can
not do better than to take the BURLINGTON
ROUTE.
This Line has published a pamphet called
“How to go West," which contains much valua
ble information ; a large correct map of the
Great West, which can be obtained free of
charge by addressing the General Passenger
Agent, B. & B. It. R. Burlington, lowa.
ONE-HALF the people cannot take Cas
tor Oil from its terrible nauseating taste, and
recoil in the throat. The Castoria prepared
by Dr. Pitcher is purely vegetable, perfectly
harmless, pleasant to take, and more effective
than Castor Oil. It does not distress or gripe,
but regulates the system, and operates when
all other remedies have failed. It acts like
magic for Stomach Ache, Constipation,Flatu
lency, Group and Worms. It contains neith
er, Minerals, Morphine nor Alcohol. Its
soothing, quieting effect, produces natural
sleep, and particularly adapts it to crying
children. No article hews ever met such un
qualified endorsement by the Physicians. Take
no more Bitter Pills, Narcotic Syrups, Grip
ing Purgatives or Sickening Oils. The Cas
toria costs but 35 cents, and when once tried

Dr. Wengert's Family Medicines
are becoming popular all over the country.

them, we would say if you have Fever and Ague
you cannot do better than uso

for it." I tried every thing that was reecommended ; but
nothing helped ma. I saw your Reselvent, and thought
I would try it ; but had no your

vent, and one box of Radway's Pills and two bottles of
your Ready Relief ; and there is note sign of a tumor to
be seen or felt, and I feel beter, smarter, and happier than
I have for twelve years. The worst tumor was in the
