’ .The Crops of the Country.— Wheat
and corn prospects, according to the'De
peritpent of Agriculture, are not flattering
fet jtfio country generally. The average
.appears to have been.somewhat increas
ed,'bub the crop will not increase in like
proportion, owing to a variety of causes,
the chief of which is the dry spring In
jnpst parts of the country. The largest
increase in the average of wheat is re?
ported from-the State of Kansas, where
It;.la 1 30 percent, greater than last year,
j.ipiie report on the whole is not specially
vdiscpuragiug, except as failing to show
ajipli.increase in the product over other
ggfyre as might be expeo.ed.
’ Ir'ijri Cumberland county, and, indeed,
tljfoughout the State, the wheat crop, os
far as we can learn, has not only been
tporo than an average one, but the qual
ity 1 Is superior to that of most years.
'Revenue Stamps.— The Internal Rev
enue Bureau will change all the stamps
oh or about August Ist, substituting two
kinds , one called sensitive stamps, so that
the use. of acids to remove cancelling
marks will destroy them beyond use. —
The other to he printed lu such colors os
to prevent Imitation by means ofphoto
, gropby. Much lime and attention have
been bestowed on this subject, and it is
. supposed the precautions against fraud In
!,..tbo re-issue of stamps will save a largo
sum of money to the Government.
~ 1 ■.’Another B^yiNunE.—The latest new
gcheme for swindling the farmers is on
the tapis. The article now offered is a
wrought iron plow point, fitting in to a,
hollow square, the economy of which is
wonderful. Those that have been bitten
.find that wrought Iron points coat more
apiece than entire shares of cost iron. As
. these plowpolnt swindlers are understood
to be making a hurried.sweep through
rfthe country, papers desirous of saving
“ their patrons’ pockets will direct atten
,.htlou to this swindling scheme. It cost the
of the West about two hundred
dollars.
By.MMEit Tbavel. —The season of travel
has come, and it is the fashion of the
times for even the humbler dosses of so
ciety logo abroad. There was a period,
and not very remote, either, in which
farmers, mechanics, and shop-keepers
never thought of such a thing as leaving
home on a tour of recreation and reou-'
peratio n, and men lived and died without
over having'been beyond the limits of
tbeirown county. But the multiplication
of traveling facilities has rendered an
excursion into the country, or even to the
distant city, almost a matter of necessity.
The locomotive has superseded the old
gray mare, 'and the man who has not
been out of his native State is regarded
with pitying wonder.
We are a progressive people, and we
need the lesson which travel affords, to
keep our eyes open and our understand
ing sharp. It costs time and money to,
k travel, but there is no recreation that
affords a better return for the investment.
It knocks off the rough corners of a man’s
provincialism, enlarges his views of man
aml of tho.world.amimakcs himabettor
citizen; a better husband and father, and, '
within reasonable Jlmits, we hope to see
tile custom become one of general pre
valence.
Railroad com panies would constiittheir
own interest by making special arrange
ments to accommodate the large class of
summer travelers who move about for
recreation. With them it Is a matter of
dollars and cents. They are hot com
pelled to go, as the man of business is,
and the first thing to be considered is the
cost. The practice of Issuing excursion
tickets would meet with general favor,
and a dozen or twenty per day, thus in
duced to travel, would not require an
extra ear. It would pay, and be a public
benefit beside.
Tjrn Dunn Season.—Many business
men grumble at the dullness of the times,
but such Individuals should remember
that the dull season for merchants is the
busy season for farmers and laboring
men. The present depression is merely
temporary, and means that those who
buy are engaged in securing the means
with which to purchase. In an agricul
tural country like ours, and where towns
like ourown are dependentfor their trade
and business, in a groat measure, on a
proper and successful development of ag
ricultural resources, the true basis of ail
safe truffle is agricultural. In the outlook
of crops there is certainly everything to
cheer, and but little to discourage. Ail
that is necessary in order that every
branch of trade may prosper, Is for busi
ness men. tp go alow and sure.
Mutilation .op Posters.—There are
some persons—either men or mischievous
boy s—who makeit abuainess to tear down
or deface handbills almost as soon as
they are put up. ' Whether they do It
through thoughtless ness,.malice or sheer
mischief we are at a loss to conjecture,
but this we do know that there is an Act
of Assembly which imposes a heavy pen
alty for this kind of work. It is certainly
annoying.. to business men and.otbers tp
have their handbills destroyed in a few
moments after they have gone to the ex*
pense of printing and posting them up,
and we should not be surprised if an oxj
ample should be made ere long, and thus
summarily abate the nuisance. Parents
would do well to remind their children
against defacing handbills, and thus
avoid any unpleasant consequences,
which might arise from prosecution un
der the aforesaid act.
Read This to Your Daughter.— The
character of a community depends much
on the young.women. . Jf the fatter are
cultivated, intelligent, accomplished, the
young men "feel the requirement that
theytheselves should be upright, gentle
manly, and refined; but if their .female
friends are frivolous and silly, the young
men will be found to be dissipated and
worthless. Biit remember always that a
sister is the best .guardian of abrother’s
integrity. She is the surest inbulcatator
of faith in female purity. As a daughter
she is the true light of home. The pride
of the father ofteuer ,is centered in his
sons, but affection is expended on bis
daughter. Bhe should therefore be the.
sun and centre of all.
Lien Law Decision.— According to a
Ihte decision of the Supreme Court of
Pennsylvania, a person furnishing sup
plies for a new building cannot secure
himself or obtain a lien on the building
unless be first has h distinct understand
lug with the builder and owner of the
piemises. Otherwise he cannot collect
one cent for whatever he may furnish
for the structure. It will be well for our
material men and mechanics to make a
note of the above and govern themselves
accordingly.
Slanderers would do well to peruse
the following aot passed by the last Leg
islature, as if may save them "coming.
to grief:”
Sec. 1. An action may be maintained
by a female, whether married or single,
to recover for words hereafter spoken
imputing unohastity to her, and it shall
not bo necessary to allege or prove spec
ial damages in order to maintain such
action. In such notions a married wo
man may sue alone, aud any recovery
therein shall be her sole and separate
property.
<Buo. 2. This act shall take effect imme
diately. , "
The President J udges throughout the
State now receive a salary of $5,000, as
provided by the iqw which went into
effect on June Ist. The associate judges
receive In lieu of the salary formerly al
lowed by law live dollars for every day
they may he employed in the discharge
oftheif official duties. The salary of no
associate judge shall be less than three
hundred dollars. The judges of the Su
preme Court have had their salaries also
increased to $7,000 a year.
The Harrisburg Patriot says: Our fish
eating readers will learn with pleasure
that the Legist ature finally passed a law
for the preservation of fish la the Dela
ware and Susquehanna rivers, and. their
tributaries. It is unlawful to put fish
baskets and fish dams in any of these
streams, and.it Is made the duty of the
sheriffs of the several'counties to abate
these dams and baskets under u heavy
penalty. Let the sheriffs watch the men
who destroy the flqh wlth these nuisan
ces, and let the people see that the sher
iffs sternly execute this saluary law.
More Tale Oats.— Mr. John Wolf, of
West Penusborougti township, placed up
onour table u few days since several stalks
ofaats, raessurlngflve feeteight and ahalf
Inches. This iqa little taller than any.yet
left with us.
Taller Yet.— Several stocks of oats,
from the form of Carey W. Ahl, Esq., east
of Carlisle, measuring five feet fen,lnohes
In height, have been left at our office—
Next! u!
Fell From a Barn —John Messlnger,
of Churohtown, who was building a barn
for John Evans, In York'county, fell from
the roof a few days since, Injuring himself
badly, but not seriously.
• High School Exhibition.—The an
nual exhibition of the Boys' and Girls’
High Schools of Carlisle, on Friday ev
ening last, was the most Interesting fea
ture of this season of literary entertain
ment. From the manner in which
Itheem'e Hall was crowded—many In
deed being unable to gain admittance—it
was evident that the cdmmunlty felt no
ordinary degree of pride In the acknowl
edged success of oar common schools.

Where all did so well, it would be dif
ficult to select any for special praise.
“ Stay where you Belong," by John M.
Bentz, was a highly creditable effort, as
were also the addresses of Hary H. Hal
bert and Edwin Z, Dunean. In so large
an audience it was with great difficulty
wo beard the young ladies at ail. The
essays of Halile S. Hoover and Annie
.Weirich were more distinctly read than
the others —and from such portions as we
heard of all of them, they seemed to be of
a higher order than usual. . ■ .
After the degrees had been conferred
upon the Graduating Class, Henry 'Mew
sham, Esq., stated on behalf of t|ie Board
of Directors that forsome unexplained rea
son diplomas had never been conferred-’
upon the graduates of the class of 1848,
and the Board had determined that the
interests of education would.be promoted'
by conferring, those degrees now. He
then called the names of Miss R. Ed
munds, Prof, Davidson EokelS, Fred’k
Embiok, Bam’l H. Gould, Jos. C. Hofler
and C. P. Humrich, Esq.; and, after con
gratulating them that justice bad at last
been done them, he conferred the long
delayed diplomas upon them.
After the conclusion of the regular or
der of exercises,, Rev. Dr. Swartz was
called on, and'made some entertaining
and amusing remarks, contrasting the old
system of common school education with
the present—at the conclusion of which
the benediction was pronounced by Rev.
Mr.. Dong, of-the Bethel church. .
After the audience was dismissed, the
graduates, directors, teachers and invited
guests partook of some delicious ice cream
and cake, arid indulged in a pleasant.so
ciable chat for half an hour, to the mutu
al delight and edification of all concern

Commissioner of Agriculture—
Judge Watts.— r l’he Philadelphia In

"Professor Frederick Watts, of Carlisle,
has accepted the appointment as Com
missioner of Agriculture.”
We never before heard Judge Watig
spoken of. as a “ professor," but we sup
pose we will have fo give him that tftle
hereafter. We are glad, too, to see that
he has accepted, the appointment of Com
missioner of Agriculture, for he has good
qualifications for that position.
Knights of Pythias.— The semi-an
nual session of the Grand Lodge of this
Order will be held at Allentown on the
fourth Tuesday in July. The members
look forward to the session with more
than usual interest. The action of (be
supreme body in removing the legisla
tion which caused so much feeling in
the Order has done much to bring about
unity and brotherly sentiment. The
session will be largely attended. From,
every section of the Bta te the most flat
tering reports are received of the pros
perity and usefulness of the Order.
A bill was passed by the Legislature
of New York making it a misdemeanor
to-jump upqn railroad trains whether
passenger or freight, punishable with a
fine-of not less than $5, and, in case of a
refusal, with imprisonment. In the
western part of Pennsylvania," about a
year ago, an engineer gave a youngster a
sound and well deserved ouffiing for per
sisting in thus endangering his life after
repeated warnings. The boy’s father
prosecuted the engineer, and succeeded
in baying him fined. When about six
weeks afterward, the lad had one of bis
legs taken off by falling under a train,
the sympathy bestowed uppn the afflicted
parents was not excessive.
Religious Service.— Quarterly meet
ing services will he held in St. Paul’s
Evangelical Church as follows:—Friday
evening, July 7, General Love Feast; Sun*,
day, July 0, at 11 a. m. preaching by Rev.
C. F. Deininger, P. 8., followed by the
Lord’s Supper. At 71 p. ji,, the preach
ing services will be continued.
This, is the time to prepare for fruit
preserving. No family should be without
a supply of vegetables and- fruit during

In winter
Our markets are well supplied of late,
aud nearly everything the housekeeper
wants can be purchased at reasonable

Sellinh Liquor to Minobs.—lf
there is a law [upon our statute books
which should be of a strong and binding
character, it is that prohibiting hotel
and saloon keepers from selling liquors
to persons of tender years. Liquor'ls
terrible in its effect when ( indulged in
by men grown to but
upon thp young it is still more terrible,
and the law wisely steps in and punish
es by fine and penalty any one engaged
in the.traffic so doing, and holds them
responsible to the law. It sometimes
seems to us as if the law was a dead
letter. It is a common occurrence to
see boys of fifteen and sixteen reeling
drunk on the streets and in thoplaoes
of public resort. Aye, boys who have
not earned a single mouthful of the
bread they eat, bring sorrow and shame
upon their aged parents by their dissi
pation. -' |l ' '

The Safest Position in a Thunder
Storm,—A writer in Harper’s Monthly
says: To stand by the side of a continu
ous conductor, of sufficient conducting
capacity to afford free transit to the elec
tric charge is the safest position a per?
son can take. A home with a good light
ning rod passing down its wall is exactly
in that condition. But to be near an im
perfect conductor, as a tree for example,
or form part of a broken chain of conduc
tors, Is on the other band the most dan
gerous. In a house, which is not pro
tected by lightning rods, Prof, Wells says:
"The safes t position a person can occupy
istolie uponabedofhairorfeathersin the
middle of a room. The middle of a car
peted room does tolerably well, provided
there is no lamp banging from the ceil
ing. It Is prudent to avoid the neighbor
hood of chimneys, because lightning may
enter the room by them-soot being a
good conductor.

History op the War in Europe.—
The National Publishing Co. of Phila.,
have just issued a very valuable history
of the late War between Germany ami
Franco,'from the pen of one of our moat
popular writers, Mr. James D.MoOabb,
In a largo volume of 800 oolavo pages,
the anther tells a wonderful story—all
the stranger because of Its truth. He
■tells of battles which have shaken Eu
rope to Its centre, and the consequences
of which,'even we df the Western World
must feel; of patriotism, heroism, milita
ry skill and statesmanship, never sur
passed in history. The author writes
with the weight and force of truth, and
the great merits of his book are its relia
bility and strict impartiality.
TbC book Is complete in every particu
lar. It describes the causes of the war,
and the events which preceded it; the
opening campaign, and the first reverses
of the French; the effects of these rever
ses upon tbe French people;-the frantic
effort to rescue the beaten army, aqd the
terrible disaster of Sedan; the capture of
tbe Emperor Napoleon, and an entire
army; the Revolution in Paris; the rise

the naval history of the war; the diplo
matic history on both the German and
French sides, the history of the forma
tion of the great German Empire; the
proclaiming of King William Emperor,
i»nd thq realization of German unity; tbe
events of tbe civil war and second siege
of Paris, its terrible scenes of bloodshed
and vandalism, with a minuteness,
graphicness and brilliancy, which leaves
nothing to be desired. No intelligent
person can afford to bo uninformed as to
these events which have left so deep an
Impression on tbe world’s history, and
few will fall to read this splendid work ;
or, having read it, to endorse it as the
&tandard American History of the War.
In this age of sensational literature, we
cannot too highly commend this bril
liant and thoughtful -narrative to our
readers. The book Is handsomely bound,
and illustrated with 150 maps, portraits,
battle scenes, and views of tbe principal
localities connected with the war. No
expense has been spared by the publish
ers to make it worthy of the support of
the public, and we predict for it an im
mense sale, especially as its low price
brings it within the reach of all. It is
published in both English and Gorman,
sold by subscription'only, and the pub
lishers want agents in every county.
On Time.— lf tailors, bootmakers and
tradesmen generally did but know it,
the public hold'punotuallty In as high es
timation as perfect fits. ’ As there is
nothing more annoying than, repeated
delays after a till ng has been promised, so
there Is nothing more satisfactory to the
customer than to be served according to
agreement. Those tradesmen • make a
mistake who. habitually promise what
they know themselves they cannofper
form. A purchaser, after being disap
pointed two or three times, seeks some
otiiet establishment. It.has been truly
observed that men i* who are habitually
behind time are habitually behind suc
cess.” They are always losing customers,
never contrive to establish- permanent
relations with buyers, and make no
headway, while others who are prompt
and do as they agree ,to dp, extend the
number of their patrons and acquire
wealth. An inquiry into the records of
all successful business men will show
that punctuality has been one of their
virtues. No one has or can succeed with
out it, however superior their qualifica
tions in other respects, '
Tombstone Warnings.— l Two thirds
of the epitaphs we read are those of the
young and middle aged. Why is this?
It is because the present system of
practice tends to shorten-life, by de
pressing the vital powers. Away with
violent purgation I Away with sali
vants! Away with poisonous alkaloids,
that sap up the springs of life. Hoofr
land’s German Bitters, charged with
strength sustaining, purifying, regula
ting vegetable extracts. and Hoofland’s
German Tonic, combining with these a
genial stimulant, are the true and sov
ereign specifics for all complaints of the
stomach, the liver and the nervous
system. Graves would be fewer and
health more general, if they were in
universal use. Principal Depot 631

• Hale’s Vegetable Sicilian Hair Re
newer now stands among the first, and
at the head of all articles for a similar
purpose. The testimony of our physi
cians is conclusive ns to its value; and
we are personally acquainted with
scores of cases where it has been used
with the best of results. It will restore
gray hair to its original color, and leaves
it glossy,and in a healthy condition;
while, for heads troubled with dandruff,
or any disease of the scalp, it acts like a
charm in cleansing them. Try it, and
you will not be disappointed. —Lowell

MEDICINES. Hls certificate 1s vouched for by

Dn. c. il. Evans.
Dear Sir; In the year 1857 I was
attacked with Dyspepsia. .From that time until
the year 1801 I continued grjwlng worse, and
was reduced froifi a strong and healthy man to
a more living skeleton, weighing but 11U pounds.
During those four years 1 had the attention of
the most celebrated physicians In New York,
Philadelphia and Baltimore. 1 also visited the
watering places, and tried every remedy I could
hoar of for the cure of Dyspepsia, without ex
periencing any relief whatever, and I finally In
despair gave up all hope of being cured; ana re
turned homo with the feeling that death alone
•could alleviate my sufferings. In this extremi
ty. at the urgent solicitation of my-wife. I began
the use of “HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS,’ 1
although with no more faith in its eilloacy than
I had la preparations previously tried. %
After using four bottles of the Bitters, to my
su-prlso I felt I was Improving, My food tasted
well, and there was a very marked change for
the boiler. I continued the use of the Bitters
until I had taken sixteen bottles, and then, to
my inexpressible gratification 1 found myself
perfectly cured. _
Since that happy termination of my aflllctlon
I nave not bougut fifty cents worth of medicine
of any kind, and to-day i weigh two hundred
and two pounds. ....
I make this statement voluntarily, and bun
• dreds of the residents of the Cumberland Valley
who knevfr my condition will vouch for It. lam
satisfied 1 was thoroughly and permanently
cured by the use of HOOFLAND’S GERMAN
BITTERS, and I take especial pleasure in rec
ommending it to l all Who may be saflerlng from
pewitien pecuniarily Is so well known to
citizens in Carlisle, and to numerous persons oat
of the borough, that I cannot bo charged with
making this statement for pay. My only mo
tive is to Inform all.who may be suffering os I
did of the wonderful cure performedda my cose,
I honestly believe; had it not been for HOOF
LAND'S GERMAN BITTERS,.! would have
gone to my grave long ago.
Wllh the hope that I may be the means of
bringing those Bitters to the notice of all who
may do suffering as 1 did, I give this certificate
Gratefully, Yo urs,
