SPe first and fourth pages fur interesting reading. Huntingdon is largely represented at the Newton camp. A great number of our farmers ara busy with fall plowing. Mary retnrns from her "trip over the moun tain" to-day, 15th inst. Dr. Crewitt, of Robertsdale, trod our boule ♦ards one day last week. Huntingdon has thirty three tent holders at the Newton Hamilton camp. It is claimed that spirits of turpentine is a sure remedy for snake bites. "Give some people an inch and they will take a mile" is an old but true saying. The Lewistown Sentinel has been reaching us on the half-shell for some time past. District Attorney Orlady suffered from a slight attack of "Juniata jigs" last week. If your tongue is coated and you have a bad breath, talc') a dose of Dr. Bull's Baltimore Pills. There is too much night street walking in dulged in by some of the young girls of this town. Ebensburg, Cambria county, is threatened with another Democratic paper in the near future. The coal miners at Robertsdale struck for higher wages last week, and at last accounts were still idle. Madam Rumor says that an empty house in the West End.is haunted by live ghosts al most every night. The examination of teachers, in this place, on Thursday of last week, was rather a dry affair for spectators. David Smith, a Perry county farmer, has two or three coffee bushes growing in his garden well laden with berries. We hear of one man spending all the money he had for a ticket to the circus whose little ones went to bed supperless. The Union temperance prayer meeting was held in the M. E. church, on Sunday after noon, and was largely attended. The Bedford county agricultural fair will be held at Bedford on the 6th, 7th, Bth, 9th, 10th and 11th days of October. The Ebensburg _Herald intimates that the Government will establish a signal service station in that place in a few days. Several persons bad their pockets picked, in the vicinity of the ticket wagon, on the day Cole's show exhibited in this place. The upper Spruce Creek Presbyterian church, which has undergone thorough re pair, was re-dedicated on Sunday last. The freight bills of the Cambria Iron and Gautier Steel Companies, of Johnstown, for the month of July amounted to $84,000. Said the Nurse to the Doctor : "Sure sir, I only know of one good medicine for the Baby, and.that is Dr. Bull's Baby syrup." The b'hoys are preparing for a "high old time" at the Newton Hamilton camp ou Sun day, and old Jimmy Squaretoes is correspond ingly happy. John Jacob Astor, the once famous New York millionaire, said : Success in business depends mainly on liberal patronage of print ing offices.•' Quite a goodly number of our citizens took their departure for camp on Tuesday morning. most of whom will remain during its ten days' continuance. The passenger coaches of the Penn. R. R., are supplied with gas from works recently erected by the Company near the Union depot at Pittsburgh. The man who has failed to try Allen's head bath has missed a rare luxury. It is just the nicest thing that has been introduced in this place for a decade. Country editors can console themselves with the thought that none of them will ever choke to death by attempting to swallow a twenty dollar gold piece. Mrs. David Stutzman, one of oar oldest citizens, died at her residence, near the first lock, below this place, on Saturday last, at the ripe •ld age of 83 years. Express Agent, K. M. King, esq., was on the sick list last week, and for two or three days was confined to his room, but he has re covered and is about again. Prof. J. Irvin White started on Saturday last for Pottstown, Montgomery county, where he will spend a brief vacation with friends. We wish him a good time. Jim Africa, who has been housed fur a week on account of having a gash cut in one of his feet, is out again, and by the aid of a cane can travel tolerably well. Don't forget to pay that little bill you owe the printer when you come to Court next week. If you are not coming yourself, send it with a neighbor who is coming. Miss Alice Werk, of this city, is visiting friends in Shirleysburg, Huntingdon county. There will be a lonely man in the motive power department.—Altoona Tribune. A singular and fatal disease is affecting the cattle of the farmers of Logan township, Blair county. It consists of a swelling of the neck, which closes the vi indpipe and causes death. Carpenters, plasterers, painters, steam fitters, masons, etc., etc., are hard at work in the new school building, and throughout that immense structure the hum of industry is heard. The children of Mrs. Senseny, of Chambers burg, were dangerously poisoned, a few eve nings since by eating chip beef for supper. The only cause given is that the beef was mouldy. A very light frost was perceptible along the foot of the Allegheny mountain, in Logan and Antis townships, Blair county, on Satur day morning, August 9th. This is a little previous. The "Climax Binder" is the neatest and headiest invention of the nineteenth century. We have purchased the exclusive right of its Fate in this county, and are now prepared to fill all orders. Call and see it. A trio of Tyrone's fast young men, a few nights ago, raided a bagino kept by a bevy of colored damsels, and after knocking in the windows by a shower of stones, found them selves in the hands of an officer. Jack M'Cahan has the "boss" field of corn in this region. If some of the stalks continue to grow as rapidly until "topping" time as they have within the past few weeks, he will have to use a ladder to reach them. The river bridge, at the foot of Fourth street, appears to be the rendezvous of all the drunkards in town, .judging from the large number of these poor misguided creatures as sembled there on Thursday evening last. The prettiest girl in Huntingdon didn't go to the show ; she says the collection of ani mals was not large enough to take away the sin attached to the circus. Lots of church members differed with her on this point. Altoona DIM military company has been duly officered, and assigned the place in the Fifth regiment formerly occupied by the company so mysteriously and unceremoniously disbanded in this place a week or two ago. We are in receipt of a copy of the Gospel Trumpet, a small paper issued once a month by "The Railroad Men's Christian Associa tion," of Altoona. It is neatly gotten up, and is well filled with interesting aid instructive matter. We will take two or three loa;ls of good kindling wood at this office on subscription. It must be straight, dry, yellow pine, or else we don't want it. Here's a chance now for those persons who want to pay for their paper in this way. The borough weigh scales broke down, on Friday, on account of some of the under timbers haring become too rotten to hold the rods running through them. "Honesty" put in new timbers, and now the scales are in first-class condition. Mrs. Julia Irwin, who figured in the recent Pittsburgh tragedy, a detailed account of which appeared in the JOURNAL of last week, has sufficiently recovered from her wounds to enable her to leave the hospital where she had been for treatment. In a match game of quoits, between Geo. W. Good, of Altoona, and Jaceb West, of Greensburg, for $lOO a side and the champion ship of Western Pennsylvania, pitched at Al toona on Saturday afternoon, the former gentleman was the victor. According to high astronomical authority there are to be showers of meteors some time during the present month. The number of these meteors are estimated at 300,000,000, and their size from an ounce or less in weight up to several tons each. Some of Altoona's lovers of the terpsicho rean art indulged in what they termed "the phantom hop," one night last week. They transformed themselves into "phantoms" by wearing white masks and encasing themselves in sheets and pillow-slips. We are indebted to Col. John S. Miller, one of the vice presidents of the State agricultural society, for a pamphlet copy of the list of premiums of the 26th annual exhibition of that organization, to be held at Philadelphia from the Bth to the 20th of September. On the first page this week we publish a full history of the case of Miss Root, of Reading, who started out to fast forty days and forty nights. Since we put the article in type the young woman has concluded to partake of food, and at latest accounts she bid fair to recover. The printers' picnic is the next thing on the tapis. It is the intention of the management to make it, so far as they can, legitimately a printers' picnic. Last season's gathering was a failure in this vell)ect. We hope they will be able to accomplish their design in this particular. The barn of David Weiler, in Belleville, Mifflin county, containing a number of farm ing implements, his entire crop of grain and hay of this year, and grain from last year's crop, was struck by lightning, Sunday night a week ago, and burned to the ground. No insurance. Some six or eight school desk manufactories were represented in this place, on Saturday last, on the occasion of the Directors select ing seats and desks for the new school build ing. There were all sorts, sizes, shapes and qualities on exhibition, any of which were superior to the old slab seats of a few years ago. We have o■ file, and will publish next week, a communication clipped from one of our ex changes, under the caption of "Reminiscence of Old Mother Huntingdon." The article makes mention of the names of many former old residents of this place who have longsince been called to their fathers. The inestimable wife of Wiu. A. Saxton, esq., died at Saxton, Bedford county, on Wednesday evening, where the family were visiting, during the hot weather, for the bene fit of Mrs. Saxton's health. Her remains will be taken to'her Washington home for inter ment. We sympathize with the stricken hus band and daughter in their sore affliction. Charlie M., eldest son of John R. and Mary Cunnicgham, of this place, died at Media, on Friday evening, where he had been spending some time with friends. His remains were brought home on Sunday evening, and in terred on Monday afternoon. We sympathize with the stricken parents in their sore afflic tion. On Sunday a box full of small bottles, con taining a mixture resembling chalk and wa ter, was found on McCahan's term. There were no labels to indicate what the preparation was made for. The bottles had stamped on them, "From John Reed & Sons, Druggists, Huntingdon, Pa."—Bollidaysburg correspon dence Altoona Tribune. Our ex-imp of darkness, and esteemed young friend, Harry W. Long, who represents the extensive tobacco house of Cunningham, Gleim dc Co., of Philadelphia, arrived at his home, in this place, on Friday, where he will tarry for a fortnight among his numerous friends and acquaintances. We hope his visit to his old stamping ground may prove a pleasant one. We understand that the friends of Conrad and Moore, the two men in prison awaiting trial for outraging the person of Miss Fry, are making strenuous efforts to have the case compromised. If this case does not come to trial we recommend the closing of the courts of justice, the liberation of every convict in our penitentiaries, and the destruction of our States' prisons. Judging from the account of the Gary tele graph machine, published in Friday's Altoona Call, the editor of that paper must have ex amined the improvement through our specta cles. It's all right, gentlemen, slash into the columns of "the handsomest and best paper in the county" just as much as you please; it shows that you are judges of good things when you see them. D. E. M'Murtrie, Mifflintown's popular land lord, dropped in to see us on Monday last, on his return from Bedford, and thrried long enough to obtain our autograph to a receipt for a year's subscription to "the handsomest and best paper in the county." Barring a slight rheumatic affliction, A leek is enjoying good health, and we were pleased to learn prospering financially. We see by the Carlisle Mirror that our young friend, Eph. Cornman, local editor of that paper, won a handsome gold medal, on Saturday last, in a target practice of a mili t try company of that town of which he is a member. Our young friend is not only skill ed in handling a "shooting stick" but is equally proficient in handling a shooting iron. Our congratulations, Eph. A rumor was current on Thursday morning that the night previous a man had been shot at a house on the opposite side of Stone Creek, but the rumor proved unfounded. A fellow by the name of Lightner, who was jealous of his wife, fired a shot or two at a matt standing at his front gate, but fortunately fur his neck the bullet went wide of its mark. Bad whisky anda woman were the causes of the disturbance. The young lady who married her father's coachman says that she was driven to it.— Seth Spicer. But hereafter she will hold the reins herself.—New York News. Wheel bet she will manage her hub.—Philadelphia Sunday Item. Spoke in like an oracle.—Lukens. What felloes you are for wagon your tongues.—New York News. And never seem to tire out.— Bellefonte Republican. We don't see why you felloes should cut such a dash about it. Our young friend, W. T. Bair, of the Mt. Union Times, in his last issue tells his readers that his paper has suspended for an indefinite period ; "it may only be for a week and it may be longer." The suspension was brought about by the failure of his delinquent patrons to pay him what is rightfully his own, and what he bad a right to expect from them. We sympathize with our young friend in his mis fortune, and trust that those indebted to him may come to his rescue, and by paying old scores enable him to again resume the publi cation of his paper. An interesting and successful surgical operation was performed at Dr. Dahlen's office, in this place, on Friday last, by which our old friend and patron, Samuel Morrison, esq., of Barree township, was relieved of a large tumor which had been growing on the side of his neck for the last twenty years.— Drs. Jackson, Ballantyne, and Jacob were present, and to their active assistance and co operation Dr. Da.hlen attributes the complete success of the operation. We congratulate our old friend in having been successfully treated for his long-standing ailment. To farmers the most pestiferous weed that grows, is the Canada thistle. On the 22d of March, 1862, the Legislature passed a law which makes it the duty of every person or persons, end of every person bolding lands, either by lease or otherwise, on which any Canada thistle may be growing, to cut the same under a penalty of $l5, one-half to go to the informer. Any one after having had five days' notice to cut, and refusing, can be compelled to pay for cutting at the rate of $2 a day, to he recovered from the person or cor poration. Now is the time to cut the thistle to prevent its going to seed. The Pennsyslvania Railroad freight shop of Altoona, says the Tribune of that city, has re ceived an order for the building of fifteen hun- dred box cars. This is additional to the eight hundred now in course of construction for the Car Trust Company of Pennsylvania. This order will req:iire a large amount of labor and material, and will necessitate some of the shops to work over time. The planing mills are now running fourteen lionrs every other day, with a large increase of force. The passenger car, cabinet, and paint shops, while the others have an abundance of work, seem to have a particular dearth. They go to work on nine hours to day with a large decrease of force. Joshua Saxton, esq., editor of the Urbana (O.) Citizen and Gazette, dropped in to see us on Saturday last. Mr. Saxton is a native of this town, but about forty-seven years ago lie went to Ohio, which, at that time, was con sidered the :'far west," where, a few years later, he established the paper over which he now so ably presides. He is one of the pioneer newspaper men in his adopted State, and al though his paper has almost reached the ripe old age of half a century, it shows no signs of decay, but is fresh and bright in every de partment, while its editorials in behalf of Republican principles evince all the vim and ardor of youth. Mr. Saxton was on his way to Saxton, Bedford county, where he ex pected to spend a few days with friends. Mr. Reuben M. Norris, of Dußoistown, a crippled soldier, wants information as to the whereabouts of his daughter, Hannah A. Nor ris. It appear! that about nine years ago she went to live with John and Elvira Snavely, they at that time having charge of the Wil wood Cemetery, with the understanding that she was to be treated kindly and not be taken out of the State. He left this section about nine years ago, and Mr. Norris has not heard anything about her or him since that time. Any one knowing anything about her or Snavely will confer a great favor by writing to Mr. Norris, as he is considerably troubled about the matter. Exchanges please copy.— Williamsport Banner. The Shippensburg Chronicle very sensibly , says : "Our farmers have not become suffi ciently aware of the fact that the only way to make money out of their wheat at one dollar a bushel is to thoroughly fertilize andcultivate it so as to increase the yield. • Uncultivated wheat may yield twenty bushels to the acre. This amounts to twenty dollars.' The total expense per acre of production reaches too near this sum to leave much profit. It has been practically demonstrated that an increase in yield of not less than ten bushels to the acre can be made by proper cultivation. The additional labor will not consume more than taeuty-five per cent of the increased yield. This shows kr itself that what is now a pecu niary advantage will become a necessity if the price of wheat goes lower." PRINTERS' PICNIC.—The Juniata Val ley Printers' Association have issued a circu lar giving some particulars of their second annual picnic, to be heldat Cresson, Saturday, September 6th. The committee of arrange ments consisting of Messrs. E. Conrad, McVey town Journal ; A. G. Bonsai, Mifflintown Dem ocrat and Register; H. C. Dern, Altoona Tri bune ; H. A. McPike, Csmbria Freeman, and N. C. Barclay, Altoona Sun, have secured all necessary transportation (free) over the sever al lines of railroad, and also the use of the grounds at the Mountain House, at Cresson. Although all who desire, can provide them selves with the necessary lunch for the day's necessities, yet to accommodate others, those who prefer can take their meals at the Moun tain House, at the following rates : Dinner and supper $l.OO. Dinner only 75 cents. The qualifications necessary to secure tickets for this picnic is, that the applicant shall be a member of the Association, and article fourth of the Constitution says: "All persons who are editors, publishers, com positors, pressmen, or in any way connected with the fraternity of printers, within the territory named, can become members of this Association upon the payment of an annual fee of fifty cents." Transportation tickets will be furnished to beads of families for the immediate members of the family, except males over 15 years ; and to each single man, whether journeyman or apprentice over 15 years, tickets for himself and one lady. Each lady employed in an office will be furnished with one ticket with out the payment of the membership fee. All orders for tickets must come from the editor or proprietor of each office, on blanks furnish ed for the purpose. All applications must be made to the Secretary of the Association, on or before the 18th of August. A brass band and orchestra band will be provided by the Committee. The extensive grounds, lawns and appurtenances of the Mountain House fur all manner of amusement and enjoyment, hare been freely tendered to the use of the pick nickel's, by the gentlemanly proprietor, Col. E. J.Unger. An address on "The History of the Newspapers in the Juniata Valley," will be delivered by A. L. Guss, esq. The Pacific Express (west) will arFive at Cresson, at 9.48 ♦. m., and the Atlantic Express (east) will leave Cresson at 5.08 P. x. The committee have left nothing undone to make this re union of the printers and families a day of unalloyed pleasure and delight. NEN ARE WANTED TO WORK AT TILE PENITENTIARY, And we want to supply th• same men with overalls at 35 cents, working shirts at 35 cents, good brogans at $1.25, and everything else at small profits. Measures taken for clothing, which can be delivered at four days notice, with assurance of good goods and neat fit, and for less money than at any other clothing store. We will not sell them at cost, but only at small profits. Give us a call. Wm. MARCH & BRO. aug.ls-2t, WHAT WILL BECOME OF TIIE TRAMP ? —To-day the new law in regard to tramps goes into effect. Nearly every tramp on the road has read its provisions and all know what the consequences will be if they are arrested in this State after this date. Many of them have already left the State, the majority having gone to New York State, where the law so obnoxious to them was vetoed by the Governor, and where they can roam the road at will. About ten days ago a meeting of these nomads was held at some point in Berks county, which was presided over by a German, known to the fraternity of professional tramps, as "Blitz." He produced a copy of the tramp law, and after reading it to his comrades, denounced it in the bitterest terms. The % representatives indulged in a talk, some saying that they would go to work, but the majority did not think they could do that. One big fellow made a speech iu which he stated that the cost would be very high on the different counties if the police officers would ins'st on arresting every tramp. They talked of the different jails in which they had been and upon other subjects, and adjourned finally without nominating a candidate for State Treasurer or adopting a platform. NOTICE TO ALL—Goods have advanced but Wm. March & Bro., are offering their large stock to the public at the old prices. Go and see them. It will pay you. [aug.ls-2t. THE GAME J.JAW IN A NUT SHELL— There seems to be great diversity of opinion, among sportsmen regarding the Pennsylvania Game Law, hardly any two of them agreeing as to the time at which the killing of certain kinds of game is sanctioned by law. For the benefit of such persons we have looked over the law, selected such game as abounds in this section, and give the result of our re searches, in a nut shell, as follows : Rabbits may he killed from October 15 to January 1. Squirrels, from September 1 to January 1. Partridges or quails, October 15th to Janu ary 1. . . Pheasants, October 1 to January 1. • Trout, during April, May, June and July, with rod, book and line only. Bass, from June 1 to January 1. All kinds of net fishing is prohibited except for bait fish. The above dates are correct, and those interested in such matters can save time and trouble by cutting them out and pasting them up for convenient reference. Housekeepers, tin cans G 5 cents per dozen; glass fruit jars, 70 cents per dozen ; the Mason self-sealers, 90 cents per dozen, at Wm. MARCH Bao's. [aug.ls 2t. CIIEAP DISINFECTANTS.—An exchange gives the following. Let ourpeople use them: No. 1. Quicklime.—To absorb moisture and putrid fluids, use fresh lime, finely broken ; sprinkle it on a place to be dried. White wash with pure lime and not with kalsomine. No. 2. Chloride of Lime.—To destroy the putrid effluvia, and to stop putrefaction, use it as lime is used, and if in cellars or in close rooms the chlorine gas is wanted, pour strong vinegar upon plates of chloride of lime. No, 3. Sulphate of Iron (copperas.)—To disinfect privies, cesspools, drains and sewers, dissolve eight pounds of copperas in five gallons of water (if at hand add a half pint fluid carbonic acid) ; stir briskly to make a complete solution, and use as follows: Pour four quarts of this solution into every privy, cesspool, drain and sewer, the first time ; afterwards one quart three times each week. Shoes I Shoes! of all kinds. A large stock and well (made, and sold very low, at \VM. IlAacit & BRO'S. Laug.ls 2t. THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.—For a week past there has been a stir among the School Directors, teachers, agents of school desks, etc. As previously announced, Superintendent Baker held an examination on Thursday of last week, at which twenty-one applicants were present and examined, which consumed the entire day. A great many spectators were present, but as oral examination was dispensed with the exercises did not prove interesting. The Directors met on Friday, and after a careful examination of the certificates pre sented to them, made the following selections of teachers : NEW IIuiLDING Nu. 1. Miss Mary McCoy. Maggie Strickler. 4l 2 3. " I(.t . t• iie Shaver, " 4. " Maggie Miller. " 5. " Estella Myers. C. " Emma NitCauley 4 . 7. ~ Belle Kelley. , Mattie McDivitt " 8. 9. Mr. Wilson Evans. "10.

H. Sheeder. COLORED SCHOOL No. 1. 31r. S. C. Peightal The schools are now all supplied except NG. 11, a selection for which will not ho made un til the let of September, at which time it will be filled by the best teacher that can be ob tained from the large number offering their services. The salary of Prof. White has been reduced from $lOO to $OO par month, and, we believe, the school term has been fixed at seven months instead of nine as heretofore. The salaries of the other teachers will be fixed at the meeting of the Board of Directors in September. The Directors held a business meeting on Saturday for the purpose of examining and se lecting desks and seats for the new building, and after carefully examining seven different patterns, and listening attentively to explana tions of their good points from the agents present representing them, they concluded to purchase three hundred and fifty desks, half of which will be furnished by the Keystone School and Church Furniture Company of Philadelphia, and the other half by a firm in Clinton, Ohio, who manufacture what is known as the "Fashion Desk." As far as our judg ment goes we think the Directors made good selections and that the desks will give satis faction in every way. When screwed to the floors, ready for occupancy, tbeir cost will be $2.73 per desk, which we consider very low for desks of their style and finish. Ladies, great reduction in summer goods, such as lawns and percals. Go for them to Wm. MAncu Sc Boo's. [aug.ls-2t. LET JUSTICE BE DONE. To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL.— Sir :—The board of School Directors of this borough was in session a number of days last week attending to various matters of business in connection with the completion of the new school building and the re-opening of the schools. They employed a teacher for the colored school, which has heretofore been located in a swamp, over looking Muddy Run, and in a building entirely too small for the purpose, illy-constructed and without ventilation. The Directors should have provided for the removal of that school to a room in the now building, where it could have been provided with all the comforts and facilities fur nished to the other schools. In this matter there should be exact justice and no distinction on so. count of race or color. Besides there will be va cant rooms in the new building and there can be no shadow of a reason for •retaining the little hut on Muddy Run. If the groun I and building were sold, something could be realized therefrom to wards paying for the elegant and expensive struc ture on the hill. It has been said by some of the Directors that the colored children do not attend regularly at school, some of them not at all, and that therefore the building now provided for them is sufficient. It is not strange that they do not attend. If a white school were placed in that building, situated as it is, I dare say there is not a parent in the borough who would permit his children to go to it. The colored people have a right to be just as fastidious in regard to the mat ter as their brethren of a lighter shade, and show their wisdom by being dissatisfied with accom modations which the Directors would not think of offering to white children. If we are ever to expect the education of the colored people of the South we must set no ex ample in the North which can be pointed to as one of discrimination and injustice. EQUALITY. NEW ARRIVAL —lOO pieces new prints and dress goods of the latest styles just opened and offered at small profits by WM. MARCH Sr BRO. [aug.ls-2t. CURE FOE CHOLERA MOELBUS.—TiiIet. opii, capsici, rhei co., menth pip., campho. Mix the above in equal parts; dose ten to thirty drops. In plain words take equal parts of tincture of opium, red pepper, rhubarb, peppermint and camphor, and mix them for use. In case of diarrbma, take a dose of ten to twenty drops in three or four teaspoonfuls of water. No one who lias this by him and takes it in time will ever have the cholera. VALUE OF THE Cues.—The New York Jour nal of Commerce commenting on the value of this cure says that "more than forty years aco, when it was found that prevention for Asiatic cholera was easier than cure, the learn ed doctors of both hemispheres drew up this prescription, and it has been in constant use ever since that time. It is the best remedy for looseness in the bowels ever yet devised, and it is to be commended for several rea sons. It is not to be mixed with liquor, and therefore will not be used as an alcoholic beverage. Its ingredients are well known among all the common people, and it will have no prejudice to combat ; each of the materials is in equal proportion to the others, and it muy therefore be compounded without professional skill ; and as the dose is so very small, it may be carried in a tiny plii9Ll in the waist coat pocket, and be always at hand. Ladies, all kinds machine needles, 4 cents; machine oil, 10 cents ; 0. N. T. spools, 5 cents, at Wm. MARCH . Bao's. [aug.ls-2t. TO THE PEOPLE OF HUNTINGDON AND HUNTINGDON COUNTY. About August 25th I will open in Mr. S. S. Smith's room, (the one formerly occupied by T. J. Lewis), an exclusively cash Dry Goods, Notion and Trimming Store, which it is my intention to keep a good store, to carry a stock of good goods, and I will sell the same as low as they can be bought anywhere in Pennsylvania. Coming with a view of locating permanently in Huntingdon, I hope, by strict and careful attention to business, to merit a fair share of your patronage. Please give me a call. Respectfully Yours, WM.

WICKED FOR CLERGYMEN.—"I believe it to be all wrong and even wicked for clergy men or other public men to be led into giving testimonials to quack doctors or vile stuffs called medicines, but when a really meritorious article made of valuable remedies known to all, that all physicians use and trust in daily, we should freely commend it. I therefore cheerfully and heartily commend Hop Bitters for the good they have done me and my friends, firmly believing they have no equal for family use. I will not be without them." Rev. , Washington, D. C aug.ls-2t WATER IS FREE.—That's so, but in most patent medicines you pay for it at the rate of a dollar a pint. Kidney-Wort is a dry compound and one package is enough to make six quarts of medicine without addition of any poisonous liquors. It is nature's remedy for Kidney-Diseases, Liver Complaint and Piles, for it is both diuretic and cathartic, tonic and healing. CAUTION. All persons are hereby notified that S.

ANT OLD DOCTOR'S ADVICE.—It was this: "Trust in God and keep your bowels open." Fur this purpose many an old doctor has advised the habitually costive to take Kidney-Wort—for no other remedy so effect ually overcomes this condition, and that without the distress and griping which other medicines cause. It is a radical cure for piles. Chew JACKSON'S BEST Sweet Navy Tobacco N0v.15-1y M'CONNELLSTOWN MITES.— Fanners are busy threshing their grain and plowing fur another crop.
