A NUISANCE—The foot of the alley
on•SQooud Street,between Locust and Wal
nut Street. After every rain the dirt and
filt4,that accumulates in this alley is all
wasQ.d. down to Second Street and there
remains until shoveled away. It is not a
.very pleasing sight, or smell, to pedestri
ans br to persons residing in the vicinity.
There should have been a sewer under
.Second Street, so that the water and filth
could have been carried to the river, and
not loft in front of the bou'ses as it now is.
FOR Nzw YORS.—One of the best,
most pleasant, as well as the chehpest
route from this vicinity to New York,
is via Reading, Allentown and Easton.
Taking the 8.15 A. M. train here, which
connects with the Express train at Read-
ing, lands you in New York in "double
quick," without change of cars, and ma
lting but three or four stops along the
whole route. The cars are new, Clean
comfortable and pleasant, while the con-.
doctors are obliging and gentlemanly.

IMPROVEMENT.—Mr. Jno.
has put down a splendid pavement in front
of his properly, at the corner of Front do
Locust Street, for which he deserves the
thanks of all pedestrians. Let some more,
who have miserable pavements,in front of
their buildings, follow his example. It
would not be amiss if the pavement was
repaired in front of Pfahler's and Rurn
ple's.
ACCIDENT.—On Wednesday last, a
daughter of Mr. Jno. Wynn, residing near
the Rolling Mill, met with a sad accident
on the Reading d Columbia' R. R. She
was on her way home with a basket of
chips when she noticed a train coming and
sat down by the track to wait until it went
by, but she became giddy and fell over,the
cars passing over her left leg, severing it
below the knee. She also sustained other
severe injuries. She was attended by Drs.
Bruner & Craig, and is prospering finely.
LETTERS FROM NEVADA.—We have
received letters from our friend,J. A. Com
erford, Esq., dated at • Virginia City, Neva

but nevertheless they will lose none of
their interest to the reader. There will be
a series of them—probably five or six—and
we know they cannot fail to find admirers
among those of our readers who can be
pleased with incidents drawn from real
life, and narrated with spirit and sim
plicity; as the whole tone and feeling of
his letters are good and true—are well
written, and abound in interesting inci
dents, which constitute a pleasant history.
THE LADY'S FRIEND.—The July

Esq.
—Henry Reis, Constable of Washington,

MURDER IN YORK. COUNTY.—Cou
siderable excitement was occasioned in
our borough on Tuesday morning last, by
the report that a horrible murder had been
committed in York County, and it was
suspected that one of the guilty parties
was in this place. All were on the look
out to see if any man, with a countenance,
villainous enough to assault women, chil
dren and old men, was in our midst.—
Several were arrested bat the evidence not
being sufficient to hold them, they were
discharged.
It appears, that an old gentleman,named
George Sqnibbs, aged 71, with his wife and
grand daughter, were living in a secluded
spot in Warrington Township, and that
their house was entered on Sunday even
ing, when all were assaulted. Mr.Squibbs
had fourteen wounds in the bead, thirteen
of which penetrated the brain. The old
lady, at last accounts, was still living. She
was wounded in three places, all in the
head. The little daughter was killed in
stantly.
A correspondent, writing from the scene
of the murder, to the True Democrat says;
"The murder was undoubtedly commit
ted early in the Bvening, while the family
were making preperations tor retiring.—
Two persons at least, must have been en
gaged in this hellish work. Circumstances
go to show that Mr. Squibb must have
been calleu from the house, and was struck
by his assailant as he entered the porch.
Everything indic , nes that a severe and
desperate tight occurred before Mr. Squibb
yielded to the blows of the fiend who
sought his life."
One of the supposed murders, named
Win; Donovan,has been arrested and com
mitted to jail at York. The other is still
at large.
Money and revenge seem to have been
the prime motives of the affair. Of the for
mer, it is supposed, they secured about
four hundred dollars.
PARTY AT LITI Z.—On Thursday
afternoon last, a party left Columbia at
3.45 P. M., bound for Litiz. for the purpose
of having a lively tinge. Without any de
tention they arrived there at 4.15 P. M.and
found Keffer's celebrated Orchestra await
ing their arrival. After partaking of a
sumptuous repast at the excellent Hotel
of Lichtenthaler 4.t Sons, all adjourned to
the Springs and appeased their thirst with
some of the best water that flows in Lan
caster county. While promenading thro'
the park, Keifer regaled the party with
some good music. Who e'er beheld a sight
more grand than the sunset promenade?—
The Ladies, God bless them, decked in
angel robes,the gentlemen not eery angelic
and the music heavenly---it surpasses our
pen to give it the description it deserves.
Again tLey return to the Hotel,and find
the spacious dining room cleared, a perch
erected for the musicians, and everything
in readiness "to chase the glowing hours
with flying feet." Hark ! what do we
hear? Sanderson qt' the Intelligencer, and
doubly honored, by being Floor Manager
of the greatest' party of the season, culls
out, "Gentlemen, take your ladies for the
grand march !" Then came the auspicious
moment. The ladies, appearing on' the
scene transformed, as if by magic, in robes
more angelic than before, (for be it known
the party was so extensive, that each lady
had her trunk.) The gentlemen also went
through a transformation. In place of
black suits they appeared with white pan
taloons and vests, and black coats. The
scene on the ball-room floor was sublime.
The dancing was kept until the small
hours, when Mr. Gage, the accommoda
ting and gentlemanly Superintendent of
the R. Jr. C. R. R., accompanied by Messrs I
Rpever and Vanlew,arrived with a special°
typ. u, in which all well-disposed persous'
returned home.
We cannot close our imperfect sketch
without bestowing a few words upon the
Lancaster friends.. Their appearance in
goodly numbers was appreciated by all,
and gave zest to the entertainment. May
their shadows increase.
STOLEN.—Some villainous scoundrel,
not having, the fear of God or man beforA
his eyes, has stolen the iron dipper from
the pump in front of our office. A reward
will be paid for the arrest and conviction
of the thief.
GODEY.—Godey's Lady's Book for
July has just been received. It contains
a beautiful steel engraving, " Summer
Joys"," the usual double fashion plate,

The literary articles are unexceptionable.
Tao book is furnished at Hess' book store,
at the low price of $3 per annum.
BEADLE'S MONTHLY.—The num
ber opens with an 'lllustrated article on
Utah, showing Mormon life, customs, &c.,
by A. D. Richardson. It has cther very
interesting papers which may be read
with interest and profit. This periodical
has become deservedly popular in literary
circles. Published by Beadle & Co., 118
Wiliam St., New York, 83 per annum.

THE GREAT
ZING,.
Iti
A Sure Preventative of
THIS \k , W.:Lk:M.I I B REMEDY was discovered
and intioduceci about twenty years ago by Dr.
S. uheoplis, an eminent Egyptian physician.
lie had long scan and felt the want of some reme.:
dy which would strike at the root of disease, and so
prevent much of the suffering Which the human
family was then compelled to endure.
'1 ho great question was presented to his mind
every day in vivid colors as he moved among the
sick and dying, and observed the inefficiency of
nearly all the remedies then in use. Thus he was
lend to think and experiment; and after ten years of
study and labor, he presented to his fellow-man the
wonderful Zingari Bitters. The effect of this prep
aration in Vie prevention and cure of disease, was
so marteflens and astonishing, that the most flat
tering marks of royal favor were bestowed upon
him who discovered it. His name was placed upon
the Roll of Nobles, and a gold medal with the fol
lowing inscription—Dr, Cheapens, the Public Bene
factor—was presented to him by the Viceroy.
The preparation has beau used in several epidem
ics of choleta, both as a preventive and curative
measure, and with such great success, that it has
been introduced into nearlyall the general hospitals
of the old world.
The olu saving that an ounce of prevention Is
worth a pound of cure, applies with marvelous force
to cholera, and therefore any remedy that will pro
tect us against this terrible disease should be freely
and persistently used.
All pathologists now agree that the cholera poison
acts on the excretory organs, and keeps them In
working order, must prevent a sufficient accumula
tion of the poison to exert its terrible effects on the
organism. This is true not only . of cholera, but of
nearly all other maladies, especially the different
forms of fever.
The Great Zingari Bitters is just sucha remedy
"as the ab .vo conditions require. Its acts on the
organs of excretion and secretion,keeping , up a per
fect belence between them. This Bitters is com
posed entirely of roots and herbs. so nicely con
cocted that every organ is acted upon and put in
tone. Its taste is pleasant and its effects prompt
and lasting.
Numerous cases of the following disease have
been cured by it: Cholera, Diarrhcca, Dysentery,
Typhoid and Typhus Fever, Fever, Ague, Nervous
Debflity, Anaemia, Female Irregularities, Dyspep
sia, Flatulency. Co;ic, Scrofula, .Ic.
