pleasantly among these wild-wood beauties.

The Directors of the Bedford and Bridge
port Railroad Company met, in Philadelphia,
on Thursday of last week, and arranged to
extend their road from its present terminus at
State Line to Gatuberland. The estimated
ec•st $150,000, which is to be borne by par
ties not connected with the road. It is to be
to!Ilploted by 1979. Tiiis will give Cumber

the Qteen City *hat Bedford would have
been if the policy of the editor of this paper
bed been pursued, but a few of Bedford's
representative citizens preferred a few trifling
scifish advantages and the prospects of Bed
ford were blighted forever.
Philip Gilbert flamerton, in his admirable
papers on "Intellectual Life," thus talks to
the wan who "stopped his paper :" News
papers are to the civilized world what the
daily house-talk is to the members of the
family—they keep up our daily interest in
each other, they save us from the evils of
isolation. To live as a member of the great
white race that has filled Europe and America
and colonized or conquered whatever territory
it has been pleased to i pccupy ; to share from
day to day its thoughts, its cares, its inspira
tions, it is necessary that every man should
read his paper. Why are the French peasants
so bewildered and at sea? It is because they
never read a newspaper. And why are the
inhabitants of the United States, though
scattered over a territory fourteen times the
area of France, so much more capable of con
.certed action, so much more alive and modern,
so much more interested in new discoveries
of all kinds, god capable of selecting and
utilizing the best of them ? It is because news
papers penetrate everywhere, and even the
lonely dweller on the prairie or in the forest
is not intellectually isolated from the great
currents of public life which flow through the
:elegraph and press." ,
ANoTHER NEW SWINDLE.—Several of
our exchanges are cautioning their readers to
he on their guard against the "fence swindler."
The pica is to offer to give the farmer 50 rods
of new fence, if he will put it along the road
where it will be seen, and serve as an adver
tisement, and the farmer is to have the sole
agency for the town, and to be paid a hand
some commission upon all orders he may
take. The farmer accepts the proposal, and
the agent tells him that it will take two coils
of wire, for which the farmer willingly signs
an order. In a few days a stranger comes
along to collect a bill for wire fencing, and
wishes immediate payment. The farmer
explains that be put up the fence as an adver
tise-mew. and was to have it free. He is told
that he was to have 50 rods free, but be has
ordered outright 150 rods, and must pay for
this at four cents a foot. If the farmer is
timid, he settles with the chap somehow, per
haps gives his note for $2OO to pay for the
wire he did not Order. When he comes to
examine his wire, he finds that he has 200
rods of wire, which will only make 50 rods of
fence, four strands high, and in due time learns
that his note has been discounted at the bank
in the nearest town.
PloEoN 31ATut.—A pigeon-shooting
match, between Mr. Roush, of Saxton, and
Mr. Conrad, of Norristown, but for some time
past a resident of Huntingdon, came offon the
fair grounds, on Monday afternoon last. This
was the first match ever shot in Huntingdon,
and as a coosequence a large crowd was
present to witness the sport. The birds were
liberated from a trap-box twenty-one yards
distant from the trig, and any bird falling
more than fifty yards from the trap was not
counted. The usual. distance, we understand,
is eighty yards, and had the letter distance
been settled upon our friend Conrad would
have carried off the lue ribbon, as three of
his birds fell within the professial distance of
eighty yards. The following is the score :

KEEP Wlt'T YOU'VE GOT.—An
eliatwe gives the followin;! sensible advice on
a sttl , .V , et of great interest in the future : Since
the law allows every Married woman to con
trol her own money :and property she may
have at the time of it.er marriage, or that she
may afterwards acquin by inheritance,
every married weurtn ahould refuse to part
with her lawful right to ow and control her
own means. There are thousands of women
in the laud to-day vho inhorited or otherwise
acquired ILCAM3 that •woul.! have been a help
and hlessini;• to them if under their own
control, but which having I.wen loft or squan
dered by their they an now in low
circumstances and even in destitution. A wo
man should always keep control of or at least
a firm hold of her own money and property,
so that if raL , fortunc overtakes her husband
she may have something she can safely fall
back on in her hour of trial and tribulation•
We could point out a dozen of such unfortu-
Ve women in a small circle, and such is the
ease all over the land. With confidence in
their husbands daring seeming prosperity,
they gave every dollar, and some now have
families to rear at a time when they can least
affOrdit. We caution every woman in the land
not to part with the title to her own money
and property, but to hold it in safe keeping for
a rainy day.
A NEWBPAITIefi FUNCTION. —Tn a recent
speech of an attorney in a libel suit, the fol
lowing language occurs : "There has grown
up a sort of common law ofobligation, recog
nized mutually by the press, as distributors
of useful intelligence, shall inform them, as
well what is to he avoided as what is to be
sought, as well who is to be suspected as who
is to be confided in. And a newspaper, as a
gather and distributor of news, is a public
monitor, and it is its duty to admonish th
people against. frauds and shame, and impos—
tures and dishonesties. It is to be a beacon
as well as a guide ; and whenever a public
newspaper, through its diversified appliances
for the collection and distribution of informa—
tion, discovers anywhere in public life and in
public avocations whether it be a lawyer or a
clergyman, or a physician, a man who, instead
of securing the public welfare by honorable
mithods and practices, simply prowls around
in the back yard of his profession, and uses
the means and instrumentalities which honor
able title gives him to pander to his own lust
of avarice, or any other file passion, and that
paper fails to send out some admonitory voice
and sound some signal of warning, it is recre
ant to every principle of duty and responsibil
ity, and should be stigmatized by the public
it pretends to represent and serve."
Johnstown Tribune, Tuesday.]
RIOTERS CONVICTED.—The jury in the
case of the Commonwealth ,s. William Hilde
brand, Thomas Parfit, Frank Vanormer, Wil
liam Quinlan, John McLaren, and Andrew
Crouse, tried yesterday in court on a charge
of taking possession of Railroad property
ha
longing to the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, on Sunday, the 22d of July last, brought
in a verdict at 4 o'clock this afternoon.
Ifildebra.ml, Parlit, Vanormer, and McLaren
were found guilty in manner and form as in
dicted, and Crouse and Quinlan were found
not guilty as to the first couat, but guilty on
the second. Imme'diately after the verdict was
rendered his bunor, Judge Doan, called up
the convicted parties for sentence, and the
first three named were notified that a tine of
$l5O must be paid, and that itnprisontnentfor
one year in the county jail was the limit of
their location in dut once.
The sentence accorded Quinlan and Crouse
was $lOO fne, and a committal to tlic county
prison of six months each.
Immediately after sentence was imposed
Sheriff Ryan removed the individuals named
to jail.
EAT THE SAMPLES.—A townsman re
cently in Huntingdon reports the following as
having occurred at oue of the principal hotels
up there : A guest called after the dinner
hour and asked for dinner. He was taken to
the dining room, seated, and told to give his
orders to a waiter who would tie in attendance.
One was summoned whom he told he wanted
a good square meal, for be was hungry. The
waiter retired, and soon returned with a vari
ety of dishes, each particular comestible on a
separate dish, sA them on the table and dis
appeared again. The guest waited a short
time, then attacked the "vituals," exhausted
the supply, and went in search of the landlord,
to whom we said, "Here, landlord, I'm tired
waiting for dinner. I've eaten the samples,
and I want you to hurry up the dinner." Mine
host was, naturally, taken aback, but re-seated
his guest, and went again to the - kitchen and
ordered on a fuller supply, enough to satisfy
his famished visitor, it is supposed, for in due
time he returned to the office, settled the bill
and departed.—Leiciatown Sentinel.
A CAMP MEETING will be held on the

cient number of other ministerial brethren.
God's people everywhere, without distinction
of sect, are cordially in7ited to come and
worship in this "Feast of Tabernacles." The
lairs of the Commonwealth, in reftrence to the
holy Sabbath, mast be observed.

A Result of Obstructed Dig estion.
Among the hurtful consequences ofobstructed
digestion, is the impoverishment of the vital
fluid which not only produces dangerous organ
ic weakness, but according to the best medical
authorities, sometimes causes asphyxia, it is
apparent that to improve the quality of the
blood by promoting digestion and assimilation,
is a wise precaution. Ilostetter's Stomach
Bitters is precisely the remedy for this purpose,
since it stimulates the gastric juices, conquers
those bilious and evacuative irregularities
which interfere with the digestive processes,
promotes assimilation of the food by the blood,
and purifies as well as enriches it. The signs
of improvement in health in consequence of
using the Bitters are speedily apparent In an
accession of vigor, a gain is bodily substance,
and a regular and active performance of every
physical function.

INDEPENDENT GREENBACK PARTY.—
At a meeting of the Independent Greenback
Party held and organized in the Court House,
on Wednesday evening, August 29th, among
other things the following preamble and res
olutions were adopted :
WIIEIIEAR, The existing political parties have utterly
failed in their duty to the great mass of the people • have
neglected the interest of the Working Claes, an d
failed to legislate in their behalf. Therefore,
Resolved, That we, the people of Huntingdon county,
representing the farmer, the mechanic, the laborer, the
merchant, the business and professional man, and every
one claiming a pare and honest administration of the
affairs of this nation ; and demanding legislation in the
interest of the whole people, such legislation as will bring
about the greatest good to the greatest number, protest
ing against any further legislation in the interest of the
National Banks and the Bond-holders ; and knowing and
believing as we do that we cannot secure wholesome lee-
I lation so long as we continue to elect, and are entirely
represented by men in the Federal Congress and the Leg
islative Halls who are owned and controlled by such in
stitutions, and mono, ed aristocracies, do hereby combine
and organise ourselves into a Political Party, separate
and distinct from ali political parties now existing, adopt
ing the name of "The Independent Greenback Party."
The object of our banding together, is, both by combined
and individual action, to secure such monetary reform as
shall Eros us from the financial evils which have been the
rein of the country and the degradation of labor. We
hereby bind ourselves to each other and to the Declara
tion of Principles herewith, for the successful prosecution
of work, of organization and education; promising to use
our best endeavors to secure the success of the Indepen
dent Party in the control of the affairs of our County,
State and Nation.
Resolved, That the "Independent Greenback Party"
pledges its loyalty to the Constitution of the United
States and to all its amendments ; the equality of all cit
izens before the law, we hold to be the cardinal principle
of the foundation of a free government; liberty of speech
and action as gnarantecd by the Constitution, should be
bold sacred by all the people and represented by the au
thority, which in their agent.
litssolred, That we recommend to the indantrial classes
of the county, whether agricultural, mechanical or com
mercial, iu fact ,to every man who labois in Whatever ca
pacity, and to every merchant, business and professional
man, who 10TC.9 good government and who sympathizes
with its in our efforts to secure good government, that
titers be an immediate organization throughout the coon
ty;to promote the general welfare, and to shape hence
forth the true policy and legislation of the country, basing
our actions upon the following principles and purpose, :
First. The Greenback dollar nitist ho a legal tender for
the payment of all debts, and, by the government Issued,
protected and received at par with gold.
. . .
- Second. The Gm:aback io be the regal tender money of
the country, and to be iesned by the goverr.mgpt.
Thirst. The General Government alone to iesne money,
and this for the benefit of all, and not to, through, or fur
the enrichment of National Banks.
Pourth. All kinds of property owned by individuals or
corporations to be taxed alike. _ _ _
' , Va. The immediate calling in of all United States
bends and the payment of them principal and interest, in
legal lender lawful greenback paper money of the United
States, and that every dollar of such Issue of legal tender
lawful money to be protected by the Government as at
par with other lawful money in gold or silver coin, never
to be converted into bonds of any rate or class.
Sixth. Honesty and economy in the adminiatrat ion of
public affairs.
Seventh. Legislation in the interest of the laboring man
—such legislation as will provide homes and comfort, and
give constant and profitable employment to the many
idle hands in our factories, workshops, coal mines, etc.,
Eighth.. Capita I should not be permitted to combine
Leber, bet the two should work together and in
harmony.
Ninth. A return to early priqplplos, by letting the office
seek the man and not the man the office.
Restfral. That the Charirman — of this organisation be
and is hereby dlreeted to issue a call for a county conven

district in the county, to meet in Huntingdon on Thurs

PENNY WISE
AND
POUND FOOLISH
In nothing is the above more illustrated than in the
course many pursue in certain kinds of disease. In order
to save a few cents they have what they call their own
prescriptions, such as Balsam Copabia, Turpentine, &c.,
little knowing the baneful influence these drew: have on
the constitution, the disgusting smell from the breath,
and, with all these disadvantages, there is no saving of
money, as the dose has to be renewed over and over again
until at last the condition of the patient becomes alarm
ing: then other moans have to be resorted to. Read the
words of a sufferer :
Desmond & Co., 915 Race Street, Philadelphia : I appeal
to you, and if there is any earthly relief for me I wish
you would do something for me. About eight monthsago
I got into trouble. I took capsules, went to doctors, and
it has cost me one hundred dollars—first for this medi
cine, then for that—without any benefit. A few days ago
a friend told me of the Samaritan's Gift; he said it would
certainly cure me. This is why I address you for advice.
Let the above be a warning to others. When you get
in trouble procure at once the Samaritan's Gift, and you
will be all right in two or three days, for remember the
bed effects that fallow the use of these injurious drugs are
often worse than the original trouble. Price—Male pack
ages $2; Female $3. Sent by Mail in a plain envelope.

MOUNT DE CIIAUTAL
ACADEMY of the VISITATION,
NEAR WHEELING, W. VA.
Parents in quest of a flmt-class school for their daught
ers will do well to investigate the claims of this celebra
ted Academy.
For thoroughness in every department of female educa
tion, Mount de Chautal ranks pre-eminently high,
Great attention is given to perfect the pupils in writing
and speaking French with fluency. For those sufficiently
advanced it is the language of their recreation hours.
The purity of accent and correctness of pronunciation
acquired in this Institution have long been a subject of
surprise to the native Parisian.
The renown for superiority in music is so wide spread
as to have made this Academy almost a native one.
One feature in particular, that should recommend Mount
de Chautal to the sensible parent, is the influence exercis
ed to form the pupils to views and habits of economy and
to render them really practical asii useful women of socie
ty in atter years. Simplicity of dress is enforced by rule.
These facts united to the exceedingly moderate rates
for board and tuition, will, we trust, secure to this acbool
n s large and desirable a patronage in the future as it has
enjoyed in the past.
