been in progress for weeks, was rather a tame
affair, in tact it may he dubbed a complete

On Sunday a week, a photographer named
Sears, who for some weeks. past has been
stopping at Carothers' hotel in Orbisouia, dis
turbed that quiet community from centre to
circumference by attempting to make his exit
from this stage of action with a dose of poi
son. During the afternoon it was noticee that
he was suffering greatly from some cause,
when a physician was sent for, who gave
him the proper remedies which relieved him
of his sufferings. A letter notifying him of
the death of a sister is the cause given for the
rash act. So near death's door this time, it
is not likely Sears will pat himself in such a
Scar-ions predicament again.

services, but we think that they should be
allowed to go into the vestibule out of the
rain and cold, where they could remain until
the time arrived When they could go into
their respective rooms without creating any
disturbance or annoyance.
We think we have heard of the "boss" msan
man. A short time before the holidays a bu
siness firm of a town—we will not state the
namesent out to a man engaged in the same
business, but a small dealer, in a neighboring
town, a lot of finely executed illuminated Ad
vertising circulars, with the request that they
be distributed over his town, and that t he money
accompanying them was to pay a boy for doing
the work. Instead of doing as requested cud
as the children who came to his establish
ment admired them as pictures, be sold them
at a penny apiece to them, thus a
small sum of money, which he pocketed to
gether with that sent for their distribution.—

A correspondent in the Aituona Tit'Lune of
the 4th inst., says Libbie Stultz is six years
old and has been going to school only four
months ; she didn't know her letters when she
commenced, and is now ready to be set up
against any person of like age in the two
counties in reading and spelling. For enun
ciation, she can't be excelled in the State by
any children under ten years of age. So mach
for Miss Libbie. And now the Sun, not to be
outdone in the school prodigy line, marches
to the fore with Miss Annie Riley, who is only
six years old, and says that she will cotnpete
in the branches named above, and will not
only add music, but writing ; geography, arith
metic and politeness to them, and that l:er
grandfather is ready :it any time to 01 itch
her. Now trot out the Huntingdon prodicy !
The season of Lent bean on Wednesday a
week ago, and is observed by the Catholic and
Protestant Episcopal churches. With the
former church it puts an end to parties, halls,
fine dressing and show going entil Easter.—
Among the many rites practiced in the Cath
olic church during-'Lis season is the beautiful
ceremony of -The Way of the Cross," on every
Friday evering. This devotion is in• com
memoration of the sufferings of our Redeemer
and His death on the Cross on Mount Calvary,
and is participated in by the priest and the
sanctuary boys, who go all around the church,
stopping for a while before each of the pic
tures which forms a "Station of the Cross."
They then kneel and pray, the congregation
responding. While walking between the eta
tions of the cross a plaintive dirge is sung by
the choir and congregation. la the whole
the ceremony is very impressive.
Adjourned Court opened on Monday a week
ago, Judge Junkie of the Perry district, on
the Bench, and after a jary had been erupaeel
, ed, the case of J. Milts Green v , . Et tier
Foust and Amon Ilouck, ex sheriff, was ci..l;ed.
This case was an action of trespass brought to
recover the value of certain personal property,
consisting of P. It. R. orecars, stocks and other
furnace property, sold 1874, by Anion
Houck, sheriff of the county at the time, on
an execation issued by Diller & l'unst against
E. A. Greene & Co. At the time of the sale,
J. Miles Green, the plaintiff, notifi,..l the
sheriff not to sell the property, as he claimed
it, and after the sale this suit was brought to
recover its value. The trial was a long and
tedious one, lasting all of last week, and until
Monday evening of this week, when it was
given to the jury. The jury remained out all
night, and at ten o'clock Tuesday morning,
returned a verdict for the p . aiutiff in the sum
o f 1,013.02.
We were shown by Congressman Fisher. on
Tuesday, the three new coins now before the
coinage committee of Congress—of which Mr.
Fisher is a member—tor their approval or re
jection. The coins comprise one Steila $4
gold piece, and two silver dollars, called the
Metric silver dollar and the Goloid Metric
dollar, the former of which contains sixteen
cents' worth of gold an.i eighty-four of silver,
and the latter sixty-fivecents' worth of gold
and thirty-five of silver. These pieces are its
tended for general trade purpo-es, and it they
should be adopted will pass current for their
face value, in every market of the
They are the handsomest pieces of e,da that
we have ever seen, and the fineness of their
finish is unsurpa , sed by any vole in the world.
The silver dollars are remarkably lie:mtifat,
the gold iu them giving them a sell,
tinge that is pleasing to the eye. 11'e Belie
that they will he adopted and the different
mints put to working them as fiSt a, :heir
facilities will permit.
Concerning the payment of back siandi,g
subscriptions to newspapers, the 6,•rtilatalityll
Telegraph well says : •Why don't sol,..Feribers
pay up? Everything is now getting to be
prosperous. The great ftraning interest a:is
never better, all things considered. llecltanice
are flourishing. The industrial establisninents
are all in full flow, 'and there is no excuse
why the small aunts involved in a tcw to
subscriptions should not he promptly
met. Those in arrears, too, stolull pay a full
year in advance, to make amends fir their
shortcomings. Postollices are to be found
everywhere, and they are saf,r now than ever
before to transmit si . nall notes; besides there
are postal orders and the registered letters, so
that those who cannot call at the newspaper
offices have no excuse to delay lie . % meat. To
pay a collector to go alter subscribers and to
pay the postage in advance as every publisher
has to do upon every paper sent through the
mail, leaves scarcely enough money to pay
for the white paper before it is touched with
a type.
After the first of March next. our friend J.
W. Barndollar, esti., of Everett, will remove
to Bedford and take charge of the well-known
Cramer Cottages, having bought the property
some weeks ago. From what we can under
stand, Mr. B. intends to renovate all the build
ings, preparatory to the opening of the regu
lar spring season. which begins at that water
ing town about the lo'h of June. As Nese
Cottages have always been well kept, the new
proprietor will not only infuse new life, as it
were, in his undertaking by the addition of
important improvements, but will bring back
to them the 'life of the house" under the old
regime—which he took away several years
ago—in the person of his most estimable wite,
Mrs. Betty Barndollar. This fact alone we
know, will be hailed with delight by the elite
who have been in the habit of visiting the
Cottages year after year, as they know it
promises real comfort, pleasure and amuse
ment, as well as to the keeping up of the culi
nary department to the highest standard
known to the art. For a lively and cool re
treat during the summer solstice, give us the
Cottages under the management of Mrs. 8.,
above all others in Bedford.

The new road fnom the ci'y of Cninbeidittni
to the Mate line was fluished.and odeaed
December last, and has since been in very
successful operation. An extension of the
road is being rapidly 4inalied into the Cum—
berland coal fields, and this is expected to add
large :Y to the income of the road, and, taken
in conjunction with the general improvement
inn coal and iron iuteres, gives good grounds
for anticipating that the profits 01 the cool
pany during tine coming year will be er.cep
tionally large. It further stated that the
fl satin g debt wits last year reduced by over
and that, anticipating the liquidation)
of the balance of tine indebtedness, SlOo.ono,
bei'dre the next annual meeting, the directors
would then endeavor to take action toward
I.:lieving the consolidated mortgage holders.
Edward Wain, esq., imoired as to the right
of the holders of the floating debt to tale
precedence of the first, second and thii:d mort
gages.. He did not think there was any legal
right in the premises.
An explanation by one of the directors was
to the enct that this dent was incurred when
the road was inn tivuble, and that it was nsces
sery to create the loan to prevent foreclosure
and the ruin of the road.
Mr. Wain voted against the adoption of the
report, but lie as alone in his opposition.
Tile reports of the superintendent and
treasurer were taken as read.
A YOUNG man by the name of Wiiliam
Kotz, coachman for Mr. Charles McClellan,
came to my store one morning complaining
that his feet hurt hint very badly, and ex
pressing fears that they were frost-bitten. Ele
had in vain tried to get relief by consulting
physicians, and bad endeavored, without sue
cess , to ease the pain by rubbing his feet with
snow and ice, the remedy applied in suc:i
cases. Being exposed a great deal to the cold
by his occupation, his feet got worse daily,
until one day . he fainted in the street. A few
days after he again came to my store aul
showed me his feet. I have seen a great many
sores in my life, but nothing to equal this,
and was afraid the poor fellow would lose his
limbs. Ile asked me for Sr. JACOD9 Ott ; but
at first I refused, as I did not wish to take the
responsibility upon myself, not being a great
admirer of so called Patent-Medicines. Bow
ever, some friends, who happened to be in the
store at the time, begged me to give the ST.
JACORS Ott to the sufferer ; so we rubbed his
feet well with the Ott, and he took the re
mainder with hint. After nine days the same
man again came into my store, perfectly well,
and requested me to write to you of this most
wonderful cure ; he also stated, that two other
persons bad been cured of Rheumatism by the
same bottle which helped him. JOHN LESZEN

THE FIRST NAIL WORKS.—Dune 3 US
ville and Alexandria are having a hide dis
pine as to which of the two places first man
ufactured cut nails in Central Pennsylvania,
the latter claiming to have been in that busi
ness sixty-eight years also. We don't like to
spoil titer preteutions to ancient greatties3,
but to put the matter to rest, we may as well
teraind the Blair and Huntingdon rivals, that
about the year 1794, the Messrs. Philips came
over from England and laid out the town of
Moshannon, now Philipsburg, in Centre coun
ts, and soon after--.3ay about six years-2a
tablished nail works in that tOwn. lf the
rival claimants above referred to, can go
behind their former returns, and scare up a
record extending back more than eighty years,
they may find some consolation in working up
their respective cases. We dislike to see our
own county denuded of its honors, so far as
the cut nail business is concerned, but at the
same time, rather than see that little town
down the river become the conquering victor,
it is better to heed that old adage about giv
ing the devil his due.—Tyrone Herald.
- Eight here we will remark that we ail]
stick to "that little town down the river"
until it is proven that Philipsburg had hand
machine made nails cut within its limits as
early as 1800, then we will give "the devil his
due." Guess work won't du.
