Tlie members of the Democratic Stand
ing Committee, of Cumberland county,
are requested to meet in the committee
room, at Carlisle, on. Saturday, September

A full attendance is requested.

, Fun Ahead!— We understand that
the lecture committee have secured the
services of the celebratedQulntette Club,
of Boston, for one evening’s entertain
ment.during the course. The series will
therefore embrace five lectures and a
concert. The Quintette Club is spoken of
as the first concert troupe in America.—
Last winter, they gave an entertainment
in the Academy of Music, In Philadel
phia, in connection with Mr. Pugh's Star
Course of Lectures, and that immense
building was crowded from parquet to
—dome-with-a (foUghtcd_audjencei*_Some
"idea of IFo^lyuTaiTtyof
he formed from the fact that they are al
ready engaged for nearly every night
this winter at $250 a night. On the oc
casion of their visit here, we expect to
see the hall crowded with lovers of fine
music, not only from Carlisle, but from
the entire county.
We are informed that if a sufficient
number of course tickets are sold in Me
chanicsburg.HewvUle andShippenaburg,
extra trains will be run on the Cumber
land Valley railroad, at excursion rates.
As these entertainments will cost the
lecture committee an average of nearly
two hundred dollars'a night, the neigh
boring towns can haVe the privilege of
attending, at less cost than if they em
ployed the lecturers themselves. The
course will embrace lectures by Wendell
Phillips', Anna Dickinson, Petroleum V,
Nasby, Mark Twain, A, V. ParSona (the
Irish Orator), and the concert by the
Quintette Club. The order In which they
will appear will be announced as soon as
the dates of all are definitely determined
on.- Tickets for the course only $3.00.
Cumberland County Horticultu
ral Society.— The fall exhibition by
this well known Society, in “Franklin
Hall,” Mechanicaburg, on the last four
days of last week, was a most creditable
affair to the officers and contributors.—
Such an exhibition of various varieties
Of apples, pears, peaches, grapes, quinces,
wheat, corn, beets, pumpkins, potatoes,
honey, needle-work, <fec., &c., has never
been wltnessedin thissectlon ofcountry.
Indeed, it is wonderful to see the perfec
tion to which our farmers and trucksters
of the lower end of the county have
brought their vegetables, fruits, grains,
&c. Their success is evidenceof the ben
eficial tendency of a good Horticultural
Society. We are glad to add' that the
Cumberland County Horticultural Soci
ety is in a highly prosperous condition,
anil Is increasing in- usefulness every
year. It has a stimulating effect upon
the whole lower end of our farming and
trucking community, and should, and we
doubt not will, in . the course of time, xe
ceive encouragement and support from
all parts of our county. Its officers are
men of energy and enterprise, who are
well entitled to the thanks of our people
for the zeal they have shown in the
praiseworthy work In which they are
engaged..
A Child Burned.—On Sunday after
noon, Mrs. Hetty Ross, a colored woman,
residing in East Cbapel alley, left her
youngest child up stairs, and went down
into the kitchen to got dinner. Present
ly she heard the child crying out in an
alarmed manner; and running up stairs,
found' the (able .cloth on fire and the
child almost enveloped in flumes. Mrs.
Ross succeeded in extinguishimr the
flames, but, in doing so, burned her own
bauds and arms severely. The child was
so severely burned that it died on Mon
day evening. It is supposed the child
kindled the fire from some matches which
were lying on the table. This is another
warning to parents not to let matches lie
around where children can.get them.
Horse Stolen.—On Saturday night
last, a fine black mare, belonging to Mr.
-Benjamin -M. Jones, residing near-Sher
manadale, was stolen from the stable of
Hall's hotel, and was subsequently dis
covered in Major Bretz’s stable. The,
harness which was od the horse at the
time he was taken, was found in an ad
joining stable. Suspicion pointed to »
colored man as the thief, and it was sup
posed ho had concealed the horse until
he could take him out of town with safe
ty, and had accreted the gears to avoid
suspicion. We not learned whether
the suspected party has been arrested.
OiiUKCir Dedication.—The Central,
Presbyterian Church of Chathbersburg
will be dedicated on Thursday the 21st
Inst. The sermon will be preached at 11
o’clock, A. M'., by Rev. John L. Witii
erow, of Philadelphia, assisted by Dra.
Ersklne, Strong and Hays, of Washing

fered by Dr. Croigh. Interesting and
appropriate exercises will be held in the
church in theevoning, in which eminent
ministers from abroad are expected to
participate. Excursion tickets will be
sold from this place.
Go mmissioneu Appointed.—Od Thutb
• day last, at a conference,.between the
Court and the Commissioners, Moses
Bricker, Esq., was appointed Commis
sioner in place of John Harris, removed.
Mr. Bricker Is the present Democratic
nominee for that position, and will make
an excellent officer.
Entertainment.— A number of young
ladies and gentlemen propose giving an
entertainment at Bheem’s Hall* in ibis
borough, on Friday evening next, the
22d Inst. The performance will consist
of tableaux viyant, and music.
Prlceof admission,Bs cents. One ticket

age.
Fair.— The Franklin County Agricul
tural Society will hold its annual fair on
the 3d, 4th| sth and Otii of October, at
Chambersburg. The officers of the So
ciety are making vigorous efforts towards
making this exhibition the best of the
Soclety» and from all that we learn, they
will no doubt besuccessful. The Frank
lin county Fairs'have always been well
encouraged.
Railroad Extension.— The work of
laying the rails upon the extension of
the Cumberland Valley railroad, from
Hagerstown to Powell's Bend, on. the
Pulomao river, is being vigorously exe-.
outed, and workmen are preparing for
fha construction of the bridge across the
pqtomac river.
Resigned.— Rev. J. S. Woodburn baa
tendered his resignation as pastor of the
Dickinson Presbyterian Church.
What a Good Newspaper May Do
-•Show us mi intelligent family of boys
and girls, and we will show you a family
where newspapers are plenty. Nobody
who lias been without these silent, pri
vate tutors ,cau know their educating
power. How important, then, to secure
only those which tend to good I Any
thing that makes home pleasant, cheerful
and chatty,'.thins the haunts Of vice, and
the thousand and one avenues of tempta
tion, should certainly be regarded, when
wo consider its influence on .the minds of
the young, as a great moral and social
blessing.
The above we copy from an exchange,
and we ask public attention to it. How
many families arc there in Cumberland
county where not even the sign of a pa
per is to be seen? Can such people ever
expect to know what Is going on. in the
world round about them? It is absolutely
a shame for a father to permithiachildren
to grow up without evou reading a news
paper. We will go farther and say that
it is criminal. We say this, because if
the habltof reading is cultivated in youth,
vice has not so fair chance to*make, its,
deadly inroads upon the flnsuspecting. It
::la‘Jdl£u,ess:.whlcft,-^
fore If the youthful mind has wherewith
to Instruct or amuse it, it will, with rare
exceptions, seek gratification in forbidden
paths. Every father should have oue or
more newspapers in his house. The two
dollars, or even five, which he expends
for them, may save him in the end many
a scalding tear shed over the crime of a
neglected child.
The Cirous.— Friday was a moist day
for the Circus—or any other “ cuss’ 7 who
’ had to he out of doors. The street parade
was anything but lively.. The elephant
looked.as if bo had passed the uiglitin a
mortar box, and the camels, in mud to
their knees, sighed In vain for the sands
of Egypt. The noble “king of beasts’ 7
bad a draggled tail, and looked bored. —
Notwithstanding the hun
dreds of persons were in attendance and
enjoyed the “show.”
Robbery.— On Saturday night last,
some person orpersons entered the house
of Edward Potts, on the Harrisburg
turnpike, just below town, and stole
therefrom a shot gun, with shot punch
and powder born, a buckskin hunting
suit and a pair of boots.
. , Record Your Deeds.— T h e attention
of owners of real estate whose deeds are
not recorded, Is called to the following
Act of Assembly on the subject. Much
trouble and even loss of property may be
avoided by attending to the requirements
of the law, which provide that all deeds
“shall be recorded in the office for the
recording of deeds in the county where
such lands or hereditaments are lying
and being, within six months after tho
execution of such deed and conveyances;
and every such deed and conveyance that
shall, at any time after the publication
hereof [the act referred to] be made and
executed, and whiph shall not be record
ed as aforesaid, shall be adjudged fraud
ulent and void against any .subsequent
purchaser or mortgagee for valuable con
sideration, unless such deed or convey
ance be recorded as aforesaid, before the
proving and recording of the deed or
conveyance under which such subsequent’
purchaser,or mortgagee shall claim.”
Col. T. A. Scott, Vice President of the
Pennsylvania Central, passed over the
Cumberland Valley railroad in a special
train, lastThursday,to inspect the South
ern Pennsylvania railroad, in process of
construction. He was accompanied by a
number of other railway officials. The
party returned to Philadelphia the same
afternoon* . ■

Both false. John Smith lives in Bed

. Wrong again. Johnny Smith keeps a
restaurant in the basement of the Vol

Something that Every Farmer'
Wants.—-A copy of the American
Stock Journal.—The tfeptember num
ber contains the usual variety of valuable
information, written, by the best and
most, practical writers in the country. If
farmers would pay more atteqtiou to the
breeding and raising of stock, we should
hear less complaint about hard timesand
low prices of grain. We therefore urge
all to send for a free specimen copy. Ad

Dear Sir; In the year 1837 I was

the year 1801 I continued growing worse, and
was reduced from a strong and healthy man to
a more living pkcloton,'.weighing hut 118 pounds.
During thoso four years. I hail the ultontlon of

nally In despair gave up all hope of being curcil,
aud returned name with tho feeling that death
alone could alleviate my sufl’erlngs. In this ex
tremity, at tho urgent solicitation of my wife, I
began tho use of "Hoo/lund's German Jhifers,
although with no .more faith In Its efllcacy than
1 had In preparations previously tried. •
After using four bottles of tho Bitters, to.my
surprise 1 felt I was improving. My fbod taste

until I had taken sixteen bottles, and then, to

Since that happy termination of my affliction
I have notbougutflfly cents worth of medicine
