AIDTV4II3I 40D11111teis,T. ( 77, , • Ho cal Items I=l=l Destructive Fxbe —On the morning of Saturday, November 17, the now brick house of Christian Deitz, in Hamp den* township, near Sporting Hill, was totally destroyed by lire. Mr. Deitz and his family had gone from homo on a visit, leavingahlred man and woman in charge of the premises. Between ono and two o'clock in the morning, those in charge of the promises were awakened by smoke and flames issuing from the back-building of the house. They had barely time to save themselves, and in a few minutes tho entire building was in flames. The neighbors turned out and did what they could, but nothing of any value was saved. Tho lird is supposed to have orig inated from a board placed in tho kitchen chimney, to prevent the soot falling on the stove which was placed in tho chim ney place. This should serve as a warn ing to those who have their ohimnies Ax ed in a like manner. Tho property de stroyed was worth five or six thousand dollars, and there was an insurance upon tho house of SI,OGO. Mr. Deitz will suf £V;r aeveraiy Hum LUc inoonronicucc of being thrown out of his commodious and well furnished hohse almost in tho dead of winter. Bpaiie the Tubes. —Some country peo ple when they come to town hare a prac tice—and a very bad one It is—of hitching their horses to shade trees along our streets. Cases of this kind occur almost daily in our streets, resulting in injury to trees that are highly valued by their own ers, and which, when destroyed, are hard to replace. This is not right. The trees which adorn our town were not in tended for hitching posts, and when made such are soon ruined. Let it be re membered 100, that there is n Bolough Ordinance which imposes a fine of $lO on every one hitching a horse to a tree or sign post within the Borough limits.— This Ordinance has not been observed or enforced except in a few instances ; but hereafter it is the determination of the High Constable to arrest every horse found hitched to a tree or sign post, and to hold him until the $lO fine is paid. Fibst National Bank.— On Tuesday last, Charles H. Hepburn, Esq., entered upon tho duties of Cashier of the First National Bank, of Carlisle, in place of Joseph C. Hoffer, Esq., resigned. While the Bank has lost the services of a consci entious, high-toned and capable officer in Mr. Holler, it is fortunate in securing the services of Mr. Hepburn, who is a gentleman of education and culture, a well read lawyer, and brings to the dis charge of his duties a well-balanced judg ment and an extensive experience iu one of the largest banking houses of Phlia deiphia. He will prove a courteous, effi cient and reliable officer. Accident to Judge Newcomer.— We regret.to learn that Hon David Newcom er, one of the Associate judges of our Court, met with an accident on Monday the 2d inst., by which he was consider ably injured. While driving through Dlllsburg, on his way to visit his father in-law's family, one of the bolts of tho buggy came loose and lie was thrown for ward striking tho hard ground with his head and shoulders. One of his shoul ders was dislocated and he received a gasli on tho forehead, but otherwise his inju ries are not serious. Notwithstanding this, the Judge appeared on the Bench on Tuesday following tho accident, and took part in the business of the Argument Term up to the time of adjournment. We are pleased to bo able to add that ho is rapidly recovering.— York Democrat. A Valuable Book—Mr. Sumner Payne, is now canvassing tins county for subscribers to a new work by Charles Vv. Elliott, entitled: “ Remarkable charac ters and memorable places of the Ilotp Land." The work contains articles by Dr. Woolsey, of Yale College, Dr. Cum mings, Rev. "Dr. Clark, Henry Ward Beecher and other distinguished authors. It is n6t a work on theology, but of hu man life, full of remarkable characters, strange events, lofty poetry and startling history; The New York Observer, says : 11 This Book pursues a new and inter esting path. It does not attempt, in the vivid sketches which compose it, to deal with questions of theology or doctrine, nor to discuss, critically, the geography of Palestine and cognate countries. Its aim is to bring forward, in a distinctive and valuable form, the human nature and ordinary life of the wonderful characters which have lived in the Holy Land.— They are presented to the reader as they appeared In their own day, and among their own people. In connection with these characters, truthful descriptions are given of the places which they rendered illustrious by their deeds, and essays by distinguished scholars, upon patriarchal Jifoand subjects related to the general n)m of the work. The amount of Script ural and historical information conveyed to the reader in a very agreeable manner, is not the least of the excellencies of this Book. Twelve elegant steel Engravings, and a fine Map of the Holy land, in the time of David, embellish the volume.” It is an inviting, elegant, and useful book, and should And a place in every family library. A Good Idea.— Chief Burgess Camp bell has inaugurated a much needed re form lu the prison discipline of the “ bum mers.” In addition to prison fare, they will hereafter enjoy the invigorating lux ury of breaking stpne in the jail yard.— This new programme will not he very apt to increase the number of applica tions for admission to Fort Thompson, .and may prove a mutual benefit to town and county. Error.— ln our notice of the reward paid by the Home Insurance company for the capture of Henry Dixon, we were led into an error. Chief Burgess Camp bell, of course, got no part of the reword. The entire amount was paid to Police man First, and only passed through Mr. Campbell’s hands as Chief Burgess. Protracted Meeting.— The special meeting in the Bethel Church, on South West Street, is still progressing with in creasing interest. Preaching every night this week. All are invited to attend. Bale.— On Friday, December 13, the •executors of Philip Spangler, deceased, will sell at the late residence of deceased, in Dickinson township, near Barnitz' imill, a large variety of personal property. Shot Himself.—On Saturdaylast n, lad named Fisher, fifteen or sixteen years ofage, residing in York county, had pur chased a pistol in Harrisburg, and on his way home was loading Hut Bridgeport, when tin; load was discharged, lacerating one oi his hands terribly. If boys will persist in the reckless use of flrenmisthey must take the consequences. Tho Young Mens’ Christian Asso ciation hereby acknowledge the receipt of the following donations: PAPERS.

The names of 53 families, comprising probably about 00 individu als, are on their list of beneficiaries. Six of tlieso families receive a regular pension of $1 25 per mouth; six others. $2 00 per month, which amounts to $152 annually. The .remaining $229 20 were expended for fuel, flour and other neces saries among the whole number. Tho amount of collections is really inadequate to supply the demand. Tho Managers are qs careful ns possible in selecting only such objects ns their very judicious constitution specifies; and economize their funds more than feelings of humanity would dictate. They would .willingly increase the amount of pen sions to the sick and aged, did their re sources authorize such an expenditure. — The housekeepers must realize how much tho price of every article has increased within the last few years, and conse quently how much less can be procured for the same sum than formerly. The legacies bequeathed to the Society, viz: $5OO by Mrs. Andrew Carothers, and more recently, $3OO by Rachael Johnson, an old colored woman of this borough, have been carefully invested, and the in terest accruing therefrom is a considera ble addition to the funds.

They threaten to annihilate him politically before their nominating convention meets next summer. The Chase men are in ‘ high feather’ over this authoritative expose of the status of their most formidable rival. —The New York Tribune declares that the resolutions passsed by the assemblage which lately nominated Grant in that city “ do not contain a single distinctive Republican principle.” How could they, Indeed, when the subject of them has never uttered a single “ distinctive Re publican principle ?” —A Badioal organ says : “It appears that Gen. Hancock is determined to re store all the officers removed by Gen. Mower for disloyalty.” The “ disloyal ty” consists in not being Badioals, and in speaking against the forcing of negro governments upon the people. Such n disloyalty” wo consider as akin to god liness. —Thad Stevens is determined to push through a.blll for the division of Texas into four States, (to be controlled byEad icals and negroes, of course,) so as to se cure more “ perpetual supremacy” for his repudiated party.

Stimulants on ly afford temporary velitf, and have the same ef fect as giving a tired horse tho whip instead of oats. Tho true remedy Is to supply the blood with the necessary quantity of Iron. This can be done by using tho PERUVIAN SYRUP, a protected solution of the protoxide of Iron, which la so prepared that it assimilates at once with the blood, giving strength,' vigor and new life to tho whole system. To take roedicluo to cure diseases occasioned by a deficiency of IRON IN THE BLOOD, with out restoring it to the system, is-like trying to ‘repair a building when the foundation Is gone. An eminent divine says: “I have been using the Peruvian Syrup for some time post; It gives mo new vigor, buoyancy of spirits, elasticity of muscle.” ' ‘ , Pamphlets containing certificates of cures,’ and recommendations from some of tho most emi nent physicians, clergymen and oUiers, will bo sent free to any address.

There are evidently ma ny bonds duo by tlio Borough to dilleront per sons of which no record exists, except tlio min utes of tlio meetings of Council at which they were Issued and to trace thesopuf, would require more time and labor tlmii can reasonably be ex pected ola member'of Council. Those unregis , terod bonds however make Ihcir appearance mi ilually, when tho interest on them becomes due, and from'the payments*of*lnterest mado'ou them, their amount may bo approximated near ly enough Jor tho purpose of tills report. /Amount of Registered Bonds, £23,500 I'o • “ 11 Bunds not registered ai in • dlcated by payments of Interest, 15,2-10 oo Funded borough debt for borough pnr ■ poses. ,S3Si?5O 00 Bonds Issued for Bounty purposes and roma’lning unpaid, January Ist, lafl7, $21,300 o*l Note due Carlisle Deposit Bank, ‘ 0,000 ITJ Bountydehtdno January Ist, 1807,- $33,300 00 Estimated HouUiVg debt.

Th 6 Bounty bonds fall'duo yearly In amounts of $O,OOO each year until 1876. The note duo the Carlisle Deposit Bank, $O,OOO, has been over duo a considerable Lime. Tho Committee urge upon the Council tho ne cessity of obtaining legislation forth© purpose of Increasing Its revenue for Borough' purposes.— Wo. have .now. rebelled tlio Uniltof our taxing rate—O miyti pgr dollar of the valuation—and this 'affords scarcely half the amount required for the expenses'of tnoßorough us our duplicates do not realize qovf above 85,000.- After the first of April next, the interest yearly accruing on our Borough debt and tho tux paid yearly to the State on the bonds, will bo fully 83,000, leaving but 82,000 for tho current expenses of the Bor ough. To show how Inadequate tMq sum Is it Is only necessary to stale thutour streets, gas lights and police force, each consumed .this entire fund and much more.
