Y. M. C. A.—This Association is doing
a vast amount of good, and every Sunday
their open air services are attended by
large numbers of persons, old and young,
many of whom seldom or never enter a
house of worship. On Sunday evening
last, anotherof these interesting meetings
was held, at the corner of Porafret and
Bast streets, which was . very largely at
tended. The exercises consisted of pray
er, ihusio, and forcible addresses by Revs.
Noroross, Smiley, and Fletcher, of Look
Haven. ,
The next meeting will be held at the
corner of Pom fret and West streets, on
Sunday evening, October Ist, commenc
ing at 5 o’clock.;
Arrested.—A young man
named Blucber was arrested on Saturday
night by John Green, private watchman
at the. Second Presbyterian church, in
the act of leaving the building with sev
eral sheets of tin under his arm. Tools
and other articles have recently been
missed from the building, and Green saw
this young man cross the street and en
ter the church by. means of one of the
windows on. Pomfret street. He waited
patiently until ,tho thief came out, and
caught him with the tin In bis posses*
■lon. Blue her was committed to prison
by Justice Bhryocki -
Suffocated in a Well.—We learn
the Shippensburg News , that John
Summerland, well known in Qariisle,
met with bis death undersomewhat pecu
liar circumstances, while in the discharge
of hia duties. We learn that he had been
working in, or cleaning, a well belonging
to Mr. Joseph Miller, near Jacksonville,
aud upon descending the last time, either
fell from the bucket, and was killed' by
the fall, or was overcome with the foul
gasses usually found in wells that have
been in use for some time, and died from
the latter cause. It Is said that when the
body was brought to the surface so strong
were the fumes of sulphur emitted from
It, as to be almost unapproachable. It Is
also said that a few days previous to bis
death, while walking in.his garden, he
was prostrated from paralysis; so taking
all the surroundings iiuo consideration,
some mystery envelops the cause of his
death.

Sunday School Convention.— The
Sunday Schools of Churohtown, in this
county, will Jointly bold a Sunday School
Convention in the Lutheran church of
that lilaco, on Sunday the Stb of October,
ex ctc Inline ommen c 1 u g the even Inc pre
vious. Kminent Sunday school men are
expected to be present and deliver ad
dresses, and no pains are being spa red to
make the occasion an interesting and
profitable one to all. The friends of the
cause ore cordially invited to attend.
Fine Tomatoes.— Our townsman, Mr.
John Spahr, placed upon our table a day
or two elncei nine enormous tomatoes.
The nine filled a peok measure, and their
weight was thirteen pounds. Mr. S. has
had great success with bis tomato crop
this season, and has realized a handsome
sum from the sale of bis excellent vege
tables. /
The Shoe Factory of Messrs Neldlg,

desirable style of ladles’ and children’s
dresses. Each pattern is put up In an
envelope, with fall instructions how to
out, make and trim the garment. Two
large fashion books are to be found on
his counter, from which customers may
select the patterns which best please
their fancy. This is a much needed in
stitution,-and we feel satisfied It will be
liberally encouraged. Heretofore ladles
either had to employ dress-makers, or
send to the olty for patterns ; now they
can get all the latest s tyles at the trifling
cost of from ten to sixty cents each.
Revive Yodb Judgments.—lt would
be well for those of our readers who are
eo fortunate as to hold judgmenta,.en
-tered upon out.countyjdpflketi.tp.ramqm
ber that said judgments cease to be liens
on real estate, unless revived by scire fa
cias, within five years from their dates.
We are aware that this fact Is general
ly known, but an erroneous impression
prevails with many persons, that their
judgments are kept alive and retain their
places upon the docket by the payment
of Interest; and therefore do not need
revival.
To all such persons we would say, be
careful to keep your judgments regular
ly revived; and thus prevent the loss
that may follow the neglect of this ad
vice.
Prevalence of Ague—Fever and
ague along the Susquehanna river, says
the Harrisburg Patriot, Is unusually pre
valent this fall, thousands of people being
afflicted with It in the different towns
from Middletown to Milton. There are.
800 eases in Sunbnry and 300 in North
umberland. In Milton, on Bunday last,
one physician is said to have visited 90
patients down with the disease. Ague
also prevails to a certain extent in the
city of Harrisburg, at Dauphin and other
towns In Dauphin county, At Baldwin,
a few miles below Harrisburg, nearly.one
half of the employees of the steel works,
numbering over one hundred persons,
have been under the influence of “ the
shakes" the past few weeks.

Court House, on Saturday evening, Octo
ber 7th, We understand a number of

sult in the early establishment of iron
works at this place.

Dickinson College.—We are pleased
to learn that the fall session of Dickinson
College has opened under favorable aus
pices. Fifty new students are in atten

and do what lies id our power to promote
its success.

new two story frame building has been
erected on the fair grounds, for the exhi
bition of ladies’ fancy work, and miscel
laneous articles, which is a vast improve--
ment on ttie dingy old sheds formerly in
use.
Another Warning.—Yesterday, a
young man named Alexander Phillips, of
Bridgeport, on the opposite side of the
river, lost his life, it is almost certain,by
jumping off a train while it was in mo
tion. He was found at Bridgeport early
in the morning mutilated in the most
sickening manner—his left arm and leg
nearly severed in several places, his
right leg broken and other portions of
his body seriously injured. When found
life'had not yet fled, but he was so far
gone that no medical skill could save
him. He died soon after his condition
was discovered. The 111 lated man was
seen in this city on Monday night, and
the supposition is that he.crossed the
bridge on the Buffalo express at 2:10 in
the morning, and was thrown under the
cars while attempting to alight. The
deceased was well known In this city as
a violinist,— Harrisburg Patriot.
Good News for Soldiers.—The Com
missioner of Pensions bat revised the
bounty laws, and decided that all persons
who have served in any of the wars in
which this country has been engaged
since 1700 and prior to March, 1855, are
entitled to IGO acres of land. Those net
having received that amount will be en
titled thereto without regard to length of
service, provided that they were regularly
mustered into the United States service,

■Congress one year ago passed a law
not requiring a stamp on notes under
$lOO. The following Is the ruling of the
Commissioner and explains itself: “That
where the clause is inserted 1 without
defalcation,’ it is an agreement, and the
note requires a stamp.”
There is a man at Omaha who has
tried to kill himself by hanging, drown
ing and cutting his throat, and failed in
each case. We would like to bet him a
trifle that an attempt to kindle afire with
non-explosive coal oil will do the busi
ness for him.

Mvannooai Medicines.— During the thirty
flve years that Soqfland’a German Biller* has
been the Standard Household Specific of Amer
ica, for Dyspepsia, Billion* complaints and
Nervous Weakness, hundreds of Nostrums pur
porting to cure these disorders flashed up and
and faded Into obscurity. The time-honored
remedy still maintains Its place, and - with
Hoofland’s German Tonic (which only differs from
the Bitters In its stimulating basis) enjoys the
full confidence of a thinking public. Sold by all
druggists.
AiiCopoLicßnTKßs.—All alcoholic bitters In
market, without a single exeeptlon, are exolt
and every dose is bu a dram under the dis
guise ot medicine. The only pure medical tonic,
without the admixture of alcoholic stimulus, Is
Dr. HOOFLAND’S GERMAN BITTERS, which.
Instead of creating a morblt appetite for liquor,
will Invariably cure It. They have never failed
to cure dyspepsia In all its various forms, when
taken according to directions. The leading
medical men of the country are discarding os
dangerous; all tho spirituous bitters, and recom
mending Dr. Hoofland’s for oil diseases of tho
digestive organs, such as Constipation, Heart
Burn; Want of Appetite, Headache. Yellowness
of the Skin and Eyes, Weight In the Stomach,
Depression of Spirits, Impure ( Blood, &c.. &c.
Wherever there Isa sick feeling—which Is a
sure Indication of approaching disease—a few
doses of Dr. Hoofland’a Bitters will prove a sure
means of protection against an attack; and for
any disease of the digestive organ* above men
tioned, after they have become fast upon the
•ystem, can be cured by a proper use ol Dr.
Hoofland’s German Medicines, as follows:
At night on going' to bed take two of the POD
OPHYLUN PlLLS—Which Is a full dose—for 3
consecutive nights; after that ono or one-half'
of a pill, as the case may require, to keep th©
bowels open ; at the same time take the bitters
three times a day until the disease entirely dis
appears. In extreme cases of dlblllty the Tonic
may be used instead of theßitters, and in many
coses the Bitters and Tonic taken alternately
has proven beneficial.

Db. C. M. Evans
Dear Sir; In the year 1867 I wa
attacked w Ith Dyspepsia. From that time until
tho year 1801 I continued growing worse, ond
was reduced from a strong and healthy man to
a mere living skeleton, weighing but 119 pounds.
During those four years, I had the attention of
the most celebrated physicians In New York,
Philadelphia and Baltimore. I also visited the
watering places, and tried every remedy I
coaid bear of for the cure of Dyspepsia, with
out experiencing any relief whatever, and I fi
nally in despair gave up all hope of being oared,
and returned home.with the feeling that death
alone coaid alleviate my ln this ex
tremity, at the urgent solicitation of my wife, I
began the use ot >l Hoof!ahd’s German miters
although with no more faith in its efficacy than
I had in preparations prevlonslj^trted.
After using four bottles of the Bitters, to my
surprise I felt I was improving. My food taste
well, and there was a very marked change fo
the better* I continued the use of the Bitters
□ntll I had taken sixteen bottles, and thou, to

And u'hcreas, Tho Congress of tho United

zens oj the Untied States to vote in tho several
Slates of this Union, and for other purposes,”
tho first ond second sections of which arc as

SECrioN 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and House

otherwise qualified under existing Jaws, bo en
titled to vote at all general andspocial elections
in this Commonwealth.”
And whereas, it Is ray constitutional aud offi
cial duty to ”tako oaio that the laws are faith
fully executed; and It has come to my knowl
edge that sundry assessors aud registers of vo

and wtiyhed before delivery,-call at- either yard
of tho subscriber, where your drders will be
