FOULK, Agent of the Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia Press Association, Is the only person in Pittsburgh authorized to receive agivertisoments for the JOURNAL. Ile has our best rates. LOCAL AND PERSONAL Brief Mention—Home-made and Stolen That was a stalwart chicken Railroad accidents are nninerous. English sparrow pot-pie is a Bedford county luxury. L. B. Kline was on the sick list sereral days last week. The fire laddies respond promptly to the tap of the bell. A general assortment of Almanacs at the Jo Mill. Store. The moss promises to be troublesome in the penitentiary reservoir. The Orbisonians are thinking seriously of starting a brass band. There were not many Barr-gains in this neck o' woods last week. Some weather prophet has predicted twenty four snows for this winter. A full line of Faber's drawing pchcils just received at the JOURNAL Store. We observed Rev. Hunter, of Lewistown, circulating about town on Friday. Clean up your shooting irons for the rifle match in this place on the 26th inst. Rev. J. W. Evans has accepted the pastorate of the Tyrone and Philipsburg churches. The weather for the past few days would have done no discredit to the first days of May. A beautiful nickel-plated microscope can be had at the JouaNAL Store for 30 cents. The best and cheapest Diaries in Hunting don county are to be bad at the JOURNAL Store. The farmers have bad favorable weather for husking their corn and housing their fodder. Chairman Mattern had the party well in hand, notwithstanding this was at. "off year." The cheapest and best Blank Books in/the county are to be had at the JOURNAL Store. A fine assortment ofbone and nickel whistlei at the JOURNAL Store. Just the thing for bunters. The "Doodle Bugs" crawled into their holes and pulled the holes in after them. Vale humbug. Johnny Barrick shot and killed a small doe last week, the first of the season for Hunting don Nimrods. Three feet make a yard, very true ; but two feet unmake it mighty quick, provided they are hen's feet. A deer was struck and killed by a train of care on the Mifflin and Centre railroad, on Wednesday last. On Saturday last the United States District Court discharged our townsman, Capt. Brice X. Blair, from bankruptcy. Isaac Crawford, at one time a prosperous landlord in Ebensburg, is now an inmate of the Cambria county alms-house. The next session of the Central Pennsyl vania Conference of the M. E. church will be held at Altoona on the 10th of March next. Dr. B. B. Hamlin, of Altoona, perambulated the streets of "ye ancient borough" on Friday last. The Doctor Las many warm friends in our town. The railroad ticket office at Philipsburg was burglarized, on Friday night, of $l3 in silver coin, four tickets to Harrisburg, and a few other traps. To preserve cider sweet and make it spark- ling, put in bottles, add a teaspoonful of white sugar to each bottle, cork tightly and tie down the cork firmly. Do not trifle with a cough, cold, or affection .of the throat, lungs or bronchial tubes. Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is a positive cure and pre -vents consumption. There are several persons in this place, we 'understand, doing business without having paid a mercantile license. The Treasurer .should attend to their case. Geo. Lang, of Williamsburg, whose arrest -we noticed last week, for violating the license laws, was brought to town and given quarters in Fort Irvin on Friday last. We want two or three loads of good kindling wood at this office, on sight. Now is the time for those persons who seemed so anxious to pay for their papers in this way. A seal skin cap on the head, and the feet dressed in cotton stockings and light shoes, with the extremeties bare to the knee, is what carries so many children to premature graves. Bedford county is ahead again. This time it is a radish, raised by one of its farmers, - which measures twenty-six inches in length and weighs eighteen pounds. What a whop- Ter—the radish we mean. We understand that C. & R. Knode of Porter township, are the owners of a very fine thor oughbred heifer calf, said to be the hand somest animal in the county. Her mother was the celebrated Kentucky cow "Lilly Hill." Our old friend, ex-sheriff Geo. W. Johnston, reached the seventieth mile-stone on life's race-course on Saturday last. The sheriff is well preserved, and from present appearances promises to live many years, and we hope lie may. There will be a formal opening of the new school building on Saturday afternoon, to which the public are invited. The exercises will consist of singing►, prayer, speechmaking, etc., etc. The schools will open on Monday next, 17th inst. Twenty-two bushels of fish were taken from a dam in Woodbury, Bedford county, a few days ago, when the water was drawn off for the purpose of making some repairs. They were taken with a seine, contrary to the pro visions of the Game and Fish laws. Port is making things "boom" at his meat market, killing as high as five beeves jai on• slaughtering, besides innumerable smalrlTock. Good meat, at low prices, is bound to bring trade, for people will buy where they can get the most for their money, and Port's is the place to do it. Everybody knows the stupefying and deadly qualities of Opium ; still there are large quantities of this dangerous drug sold as a soothing medicine for children. Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup contains nothing injurious and will relieve your baby of pain and all disorders 43f the Bowels. Price 25 cents. The River Brethren or Dunkards do not in sure their houses and barns in any of the companies organized for that purpose, but Mould any of tham meet with a loss, by fire or otherwise, it is customary for each member of the sect to contribute his mite towards the serection of buildings thus lost.—Ez. A dispatch from Washington says : Pen sioners who believe themselves entitled to arrears of pensions, and who do not hear of the settlement of their claims by November Ist, can hasten settlement by writing a letter, giving again the number of their pension certificate and their present address. A new postal law is published which allows deeds, all legal papers being printed blanks tiled out in writing, way bills, bills of lading, invoices, insurance documents and policies, and the like to go through the mails as second class mail matter at one cent per ounce. That is, such matter in an open letter on a ohe cent stamp. An exchange says : "If you wish to die of starvation, advertise on a fence. If you de sire to live any get rich, advertise in a re spectable newspaper, that has a good circula tion among the people who buy your goods. Cats are the only legally authorized fence Advertisers, and their best friends always 'beat them down.' A terrible freight wreck occurred near Kit tanning Point, about 2 o'clock on Friday morning, occasioned by the parting of a train and the rear section running into the first one, by which two brakeman, named J. C. Cook and Jno. A. Mc'Dowell, lost their lives. M'- Dowell leaves a wife and four children to mourn his sudden and terrible taking off. Patrick Moore, an employe in the machine shop of the P. R. R. company, at Altoona, met with a horrible death, ou Thursday forenoon of last week, by being caught in some belting be was assisting to adjust. His body was twice whirled around, each time his bead striking some heavy timbers. He was released as soon as possible, but his death occurred soon after. Thomas C. Fisher, esq., purchased the M. S. Lytle property. from the BalhUn! , :vitt L , an Association, for which he paid the sum of 2,000. The property is situated on a high bluff on the outskirts of town, ettmluandin4 a fine view of the town and its surrountlieg , Mr. Fisher has a bargain. It is stated that the general deci,ion of all Courts has been to the effect that the owner of an adjoining property may cut otr the branches hanging over his land, and may des; ray the roots running into it : but that N all. Ile cannot claim the fruit on :la overlkati!ling branch, not even when it Valk oil' ou his property ; but the owner of the true has a right to gather it. W. G. Waring esti., the able stenographer for the Courts in this Judicial district, who spent several weeks in the mining regions of Colorado, is home a•;•ain, and at his post of ditty during the sittings of the present Court. Mr. Waring is highly pleased with the country and the people in that land towards the set ting sun, and it is his intention to again visit it in the near future. Mr. Kelley, who has the contract for the grading of the grounds and building of the foundation walls of the new penitentiary, is pushing the work along rapidly. It is his de sire to complete the walls before mid-winter, which he can do if the weather continues favor able, but the grading, of which there is an immense amount, will not be all done before some time next year. The walls arc first class, both as regards material and workman ship. Our friend, H. Runty], esq., a the Old-E3- tablished Clothing House, in the Diamond, having concluded to remain in Huntingdon, has just replenished his stock with a large as sortment of fashionable and seasonable goods, which he is prepared to sell at prices unheard of in this neck o' woods. Ilis reputation, as a fair dealer, is known far and wide, and his many friends and patrons will he glad to learn that he has stocked his establishment with the best and nobbiest clothing to be found in tht,i eastcrt, markets. Go and see him. An old man fell dead up the country, one Sunday night recently, while sitting in the parlor where his daughter and her young man were sparking. It may he that the conduct of the young couple biekened the old man and caused his death, but it will do no harm, and perhaps much good, to cut this paragraph out and show it to the old folks who are addicted to sticking in the parlor on Sunday evenings when their daughter's beau wants to tell tier a great many secrets, etc. There is a fellow named L. Lunn Smith, at 717 Sansom street, Philadelphia, who has more cheek than a Government mule. We received a printed circular from L. Lunn, the. other day, in which he proposed to give us a copy of one of the monthly magazines, costing at retail, 35 cents, in payment for the insertion of a7i inch advertisement. He says that, al ready some 2,000 editors have accepted his proposition, and if he tells the truth—which we very much doubt—there are just "about 2,000" more fools in the country than we thought there were. L. Lunn Smith will have to try some other print shop with his cheeky proposition. The Altoona Tribune has a potato which weighed four and a half pounds when taken from the ground, and at present weighs four and a quarter pounds, which is considerable of a curiosity in the tuber line, and in a de scription of it that paper says that this potato stands—or sits, if you please—just ten and a half inches in heighth. While its legs are lost in a big ball where the legs ought to be, at the first glance a person would detect a strong resemblance to a monkey. Then again it would be similar to a kangaroo in some respects, the short fore-legs of the animal being represented by two bunches of potato which have grown out at the shoulders. A swindle is being practiced on farmers in certain localities, as follows : "A sleek fel low calls at a farm house for dinner, and on payment for it asks the host to sign a receipt —so he can show his employers what the ex penses have been. The receipt is prepared in such a way that the signature is made on a paper underneath the thin paper on which it is written, and that on the lower sheet of paper is a note for a hundred dollars or some such matter, which the swindler sells before he gets out of the neighbortood ; and thus a piece of thin transfer paper, and that principle of law which holds the innocent purchaser harmless, arc used to deceive very successfully. Farmers should sign nothing presented to them by a stranger.—Ex. On Friday evening last, between 8 and 9 o'clock, some person stole several articles of clothing from the front of Samuel March's clothing store. Sammy displays his clothing on a couple of "dummies," which he stands in front of his store, and it was from these that the clothing was taken. One of the "dummies" was rigged out in a coat, pants, vest, ulster, and seal skin cap, and the other one with overcoat and slouch hat, all of which was taken. One of the "dummies" was stripped in front of the store, and the other was carried to the alley close by the store, where it was relieved of its covering. Sam my's loss will foot up about $2B or $3O. It was the boldest piece of rascality of the sea son, and must have been perpetrated by ex perts, for we think that no novice in the busi ness would have had the nerve to do such an act in the early evening and on the most public thoroughfare of the town. For the last three mouths we hare been publishing an advertisement for the New York Furnishing Company, 421 Broadway, in which they offered to sell a first-class shirt for the low price of $7.50 per dozen. Within the past week we have come in possession of informa• tion which satisfies us that this company (?) is a fraud of the first water, and we advise the readers of the JOURNAL to steer clear of it.— Through the advertisement in our paper a dealer in this place was led to send for a dozen of their shirts, and after a couple of weeks delay the shirts were received, but such shirts ! A whole car load of them would not be worth $7.50. We are sorry if any other reader of theJocaxAL has been swindled by this swindling concern. The scamps who are running the "company" (?) have advertised it extensively, and every publisher who in serted their advertisement has been swindled out of three months pay, and the sharpers are trying their level best to "set it up" on news paper men for three months more gratuitous advertising. But we won't take the bait. MAIMED FOR LIFE.—ANOTHER PLEA FOR TESIPERAXCE.-About six o'clock en Fri day evening last, a young man named W. E. Port, while walking on the track, in the vicin ity of the viaduct crossing Stone Creek, was struck by the engine of an eastward bound freight train, and received irjurics which will render him helpless for life. His left leg and right foot were crushed S 3 terribly that am putation was imperative, the former of which was taken off between the knee and ankle and the latter at the instep. The unfortunate man resides at Warrior Ridge Station, three miles west of this place, where he made rather a poor living for his wife and four little chil dren by fishing and peddling sassafras and horseradish in season, He was in the habit of drinking more or less every time be came to town, and when he met with this terrible accident he was under the influence of liquor. Had he been a sober man, he would not to day be languishing on a bed of pain, from which he will arise a cripple for life, unfitted to supply the wants of those dependent upon him for support. MORE OF RI: WORK.—On Saturday last, Wm. B. Koon, of Duncansville, Blair county, visited Hollidaysburg, and while in that place drank to excess and became intoxicated. In the evening he started to walk home on the railroad, but bad not proceeded far before he lay down to sleep off the effects of his de bauch, and in doing so he laid his bead on one of the rails. The passenger train on that branch of the road came along a short time after, ran over the unfortunate man, almost severing his head from his body, cutting off his legs and arms. and grinding his body into a shapeless mass. The deceased leaves a wife and three children to ioouru his terrible death. These accidents are a stronger plea for temperance than anything that could he said or written. HUMBUGGED AGAIN.—I saw so much said about the merits of flop Bitters, and my wife who was always doctoring, and never well, teased me so urgently to get her some, 1 concluded to be humbugged again ; and I :int glad 1 did, for in less than two months use of the Bitters my wife wag cured and she has remained so for eighteen months since. I like such humbugging.—H. T., St. Paul. nov. 14-2 t. "Mr TCHMENTED BACK," is the excla mation of more than one poor hard working man and woman ; do you know why it aches? It is because your kidneys are over tasked and need strengthening, and your system needs to be cleansed of bad humors. Kidney- Wort is the medicine you need. "It acts like a charm," says a well known physician, "I never knew it to fail." All wool Cassimeres, black sad other late shades, very cheap at Wm. March & Bro's. nog'. 7-21. COURT PROCE: , :DINUS.—After the usual preliminary proceedings, the following cases were disposed of in Court this week, up to the time of going to press : Commonwealth vs. Scott S. Stairs. This was the first ease tried on Monday afternoon. It was an indictment for fornication and bas tardy, upon the oath of Miss Emma l'onrnd, and hos been continued over since last Aprii. Verdict guilty. IV. Dickey & Co. w Jno. Garman and wife. An action of debt, in which Itickey Co. seek to recover against the reparate estate of Mrs. Grrnian :t balance of n:arly it'2oo groceries, tic., furnished to defendants at Houtzdale, while they kept a boarding house. Carman having failed once in business in Ju niata county, conducted his boarding busi ness in Houtzdale in the name of F. L. Gar man, (his wife's name being Flora), and fail ing again in Houtzlit!e he removed to Hun tingdon county-, since when Mrs. Garman has come info possession of real estate; and the plaintiffs alleged that she became personally responsible in Houtzdale for the goods fur nished to Garman. The Court held that Mrs. Garman could only be held liable for neces saries for the use of the family, of her hus band and herself,which she herself contracted to purchase, or had purchased by her orders; that subsequent ratification by her of pur 'chases made by her husband could not render her responsible ; and that supplies for a boarding house could not be construed to come within the meaning of "necessaries." The jury found a verdict for the plaintiffs against the wife for $195.84. Commonwealth vs. David Butler and Laura Butler. The trial of this occupied the most of Tuesday morning. 1 t was an indict ment for forcib!e entry and detainer. In 1864 Wm. P. Orbison brought an action of eject ment against John Butler, to recover posses sion of some 400 acres of land, situate upon the top of Jack's ,Mountain, in Cromwell township, upon which Butler was residing with his wife Laura and family—David being one of the sons. Pending the litigation, Or bison sold to Geo. A. Parks, the prosecutor in this case. Last year John Butler confess ed judgment to Parks, who then obtained a writ of habere facial posse.ysionem, under which the Sheriff placed him in possession, ejecting Butler's family. Butler, it appears, deserted his family about the time he confessed judg ment to Parks, and Mrs. Butler and her chil dren !made a determined struggle to retain the possession which they believed was their right after 17 years occupancy, and it was not long after they were ousted until they regained possession of the house, hence this prosecution. The defense relied upon the entry not being forcible ; that the door of the house being fastened with a button, which was heavier at one end than the other, upon their pulling the door tight to the jamb the button revolved and the door was open. The Court held that this did not relieve the act from being unlawful, and the defendants were convicted. They did not select the proper forum in which to try their land titles. Commonwealth vs. Ephraim Yingling. This was an indictment for assault and battery, in which the defendant, a man nearly 60 years of age, was charged with enticing a little daughter of his sister's, Mrs. Rachel Bollinger, into his own barn and making as indecent assault upon her. The trial occupied the whole of Tuesday afternoon, and involved a great mass of contradictory details. The de fense is based upon the blackmail theory, tending to show which a great deal of testi mony was adduced. The jury returned a ver dict of "not guilty," and divided the costs equally between the prosecutrix, Rachel Bol linger, and the defendant, Ephraim Yingling. Commonwealth vs. B. F. Clark. This was an action for assault and battery, brought by the wife of the defendant, who testified that at various times within the past two years her lawful lord laid violent hands upon her person. There was some contradictory swear ing by the plaintiff and the defendant, each trying to present as good a case as possible. The jury returned a verdict of guilty, and the Court sentenced Benjamin to pay a fine ofslo, the costs of prosecution, and undergo an im prisonment of sixty days. Commonwealth - vs. - Robert Yocum. The prosecutor in this case was Martin Luther Rex, who alleged that Mr. Yocum committed an assau!t upon him. The jury so believed, found him guilty, and the Court sentenced him to pay a fine of $5O and the costs of pros ecution. SHOOTING MATCH.—On Wednlsday, 26th inst., a shooting match which will be under the supervision of Col. John S. Miller, Andrew Decker and Isaac Long, will come off in this place. A number of prizes will be con tested for, the first prize being a patent-muz zle target rifle, valued at $75. It is a beau tiful piece and a first•class shooter from 100 to 1,000 yards. The second prize is $4O cash ; third, $25 and the fourth $lO. This match has been gotten up simply to settle the ques tion as to who is the best marksman in Hun tingdon and adjoining counties, and it is to be hoped that there will be a fair representa tion of the best marksmen far and near. Cam bria and Blair county have some elegant "shootists," who will most likely be present. The gun mentioned for the first prize, is worth contesting for. A cordial invitation is ex tended to all marksmen. We give below the CONDITIONS OF THE MATCH Ist. Distance, for off-hand shooters, 100 yards; and for those preferring to shoot with a rest, 150 yards. 2d. No restrictions as to weight or kind of rifles, nor as to sights; except to exclude tel escope:.. 3d. Match to consist of 5 shot, strings, to be measured from a given centre, which must be designated by a cross (X) before the firing begins. 4th. Tickets one dollar each. Each ticket entitles the holder to make one string of 5 shots. The holder of a ticket may shoot the string himself or select another person to do the shooting ; provided, however, that no one per son shall shoot more than 5 strings. The best string either distance wins first prize ; and so of the next three in their order of merit. Judges to be chosen by the marksmen on the grounds and their awards to be final. Each marksman to provide his own Rests and Targets ; no restrictions as to size or form of Target. All money received as entrance fee will be distributed in prizes. The rise will be a free gift.—.lknitor. GARY'S MAGNETIC RAILROAD SIGNAL —IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM.—On Saturday afternoon last we had the pleasure of witness ing the practical working of Mr. Gary's mag netic raiiroid signal, one of which had been put up at Henry & Co.'s crossing on that morning for the purpose of testing its utility, and the experiment was highly satisfactory to all who witnessed it. •The signal is simply a bell—this one quite small, but any sized bell can be used—the hammer of which is operated by electricity, generated by one of Gary's magnetic machines, without the aid of a bat tery. The alarm bell iu this instance was connected by wire to a magnetic machine thirteen hundred feet distant, which was so arranged near the track that the wheels of each car passed over a piece of iron or lever, and every time that the iron or lever was touched the signal was sounded, thus giving warning of the approaching train. The dis tance can be increased or lessened, as desired, without in any way interfering with the work ing of the machine. Mr. Gary is well pleased with the success which attended the erection of this, his first magnetic signal, and he has just cause to be elated, for without doubt it is the best and cheapest signal ever presented to the public, and its superior excellence over all others is bound to bring it into general use, and ere long one of "Gary's magnetic signals" will be found at every dangerous railroad crossing in this and other lands. A SMASH UP ON THE RAIL.—On Mon day forenoon, when the eastern bound Union freights were passing through this place, one of the couplings broke and detached a number of cars from the train,and another train, which was following closely, ran into the detached cars, demolishing the "caboose" and wreck ing a car ladened with crude coal oil, some six or seven barrels of which were smashed and their contents spilled upon the track. The engine was considerably damaged, the smoke-stack, head light, cow catcher and other figings on its front being entirely torn away. Fortunately there was no one in the "caboose" at the time of the collision, and the engineer and fireman, when they discov ered that they could not prevent the colli ding of the trains jumped from the engine, and escaped without injury. In a gutter at the side of the track, the coal oil had gathered to the depth of three or four inches, and it was feared that a spark from the ash-pan of the disabled engine might ignite it, but great care was exercised in drawing the fire and this danger was averted. The wreck was soon cleared away, add as the track was not dam aged trains were passing half an hour after the accident. A hundred or more sight-seers lined the railroad tracks in the vicinity of the wreck. NOTICE TO ALL WHO WANT TO SAVE MONEY. —Come and see the fine lot of goods, and low prices at Wm. March & Bro's., before pur chasing any other place. [nov.7-2t. WONDERS OF MECHANISM.—A few weeks ago the Altoona Tribune published the following description of a curious and costly clock, the property of Mr. Adam Gable of that city : This curiosity stands nine feet high, is three feet wide and weighs fire hundred and forty pounds. It was brought to this country from Germany five years ago, and Mr. Gable first ol,s , rved it at Allegheny City, where it was in the ti:)ssession of a German who wanted to sell it to enable him to return to "fatherland." It co.l the German originally $5OO, and was built t Joseph Fridle at Schwartzw•eld, Ger many. Mr. Gable obtained the clock at a sac rifice, paying $l5O for it. The music is pro duced by winding it at the left side, which sets the machinery to moving a large roller placed in the box of the clock, on which are the notes to furnish nine different airs. There are four of these rollers, and the total num• ber of airs the clock will perform is thirty six. There has been considerable ingenuity displayed in the clock's construction, as there are a number of figures, which can be seen through the glass door perched on two sepa rate shelves, which keep time to the music. A party of dancers on one shelf indulge in the waltz's giddy whirl while the music proceeds, and one of the dancers frequently stops and "pats" to the air that is being rendered. On this shelf are also represented many industri al occupations, and while the dancers are en joying themselves as well as automatons can the automaton mechanics are busily employ ed at their work, the weaver, the cooper, the scissors-grinder and the wood-chopper being noticeable. The German maker of the clock of course would not forget to advertise the national beverage, and a jolly party are seen enjoying themselves drinking beer. On an other shelf the angel Gabriel is about to startle the wicked world with the last trump on his born and an old lady is seen spinning and another old lady is grinding coffee, evi dently not caring a cuss whether Gabriel toots or not and appearing very much unconcerned about the impending destruction of things sublunary. Performing birds of rare plumage lend variety to the scene. Lower down is the dial, around which are the pictures of a group of noted personages—Christoper Columbus (whom it has recently been asserted did not discover America), General George Washing ton and General Nathanial Greene, of revolu tionary fame. The keen German manufac turer had evidently prepared this clock for the American market. Eli Green's photograph also graces a modest corner. Two pieces of music are rendered every day five minutes be fore the hour is struck. Altogether the clock is a great curiosity and is well worth a visit to see. INTERESTING LECTURE.—Rev. W. L. Jones, of :►lechanicsburg, Pa., entertained a small but very appreciative audience, in the Baptist church, on Wednesday evening of last week, by a lecture on the subject, "My Tramp Through Mexico," or incidents in the history of a wayward boy who ran away from home and enlisted during the war with Mexico, in 1847, consisting of hair breadth escapes and adventures by sea and by land. As a public lecturer Mr. Jones seems to be possessed to a very great degree, of the happy faculty of telling what he has seen in such a manner as to make it interesting, his descriptive and oratorical powers being of the Lighest order, and his remarks being freely and judiciously interspersed with moral lessons drawn from the subject of which he treated, and for the space of an hour and a half he held his audi ence literally spell bound, the unanimous conclusion at the close of the lecture, being that those who were not present had missed one of the finest intellectual treats ever offered in this town without money and without price. We hope he may find it convenient to visit us again in the near future, and have no doubt of his being able to draw a crowded house. MAIL MATTER AT THE HUNTINGDON POST OFFICE.-By an order issued from the Post-Office Department at Washington post masters throughout the country were com pelled to count all mail matter originating at their offices during the first seven days in November. The following are the figures for this office : Number of letters mailed 2,827 Number of postal cards mailed. 1,120 Total first-class Number of newspapers by publishers... 13,325 Number of transient newspapers, books and :circulars Number of packages of merchandise Total pieces of mail matter 18,703 We see Altoona, and go 5,134 pieces better, and we are nothing but a "fossilized" country town at that. NEW YORK BUTTER MARKET.—In reporting the market prices for butter, the New York Tribune, of May 20th, said, "choice packages to the retail trade reach 19 to 20 cents, but light colored goods are hard to dispose of, and several lots were thought well sold at 8 to 10 cents. This stern logic of dollars and cents is rapidly convincing diary men that they should use the Perfected Butter Color made by Wells, Richardson & Co, Burlington, Vt. It gives the perfect June color the year round and dairymen that use it never send light colored goods to market." Kidney-Wort will cure Kidney and Liver diseases and worst cases of Piles. ANSWERS TO MANY CORRESPONDENTS —ln reply to numerous inquiries from our readers, concerning the wonderful qualities of the Great German Remedy, St. Jacob's Oil, —mentioned in our last issue,—we would inform them that the article may be obtained from our retail druggists, or by their aid. Ask for St. Jacob's Oil, and if the dealer does not keep it in stock, he will be able to procure it in a few days from the wholesale houses. We understand there is already an immediate demand for the remedy, which is not so very surprising when it is considered, what it is daily accomplishing in the way of relief and cures, bordering, in some instances, on the miraculous. THE LAST CHANCE.—As the _lndepen dent of New York will withdraw all its pre mium offers Dec. 31st., 1879, only a short time remains in which any one can get a WORCES TER'S UNABRIDGED PICTORIAL QUARTO DICTION ARY (retail price $10) and 3 years' subscrip tion to the Independent for $9, the price of the subscription alone. The Independent claims to, be the largest, ablest, and best religious newspaper in the world. It has bought the copyright of Rev. Joseph Cook's famous Boston Monday Lec tures and is publishing one each week. To tell all of its good things would occupy too much space. See advertisement in this paper. .
