UNDEMSIDDINO AT SALES.—The tbllowiwg ease, lately decided in Cheater County, be fore Judge Butler, will be interesting to the MIME .Toseph P. WilAon vs. Yerkes cued Jones. This is a snit to recover the sum of $1615.00, with interest front January, 1.867, the said note having been given us part of the pur chase money of real estate of Defendants. The question is one of underbidding at a public sale. The defendants were owners of the old Ellicott property at Avondale, Londongrove township. On December of 18116, they ex poseof it to public sale. It was best put up as one tract, lint failing to timid a buyer, it wet.,s then pat up in pewee!, Air. 'Xi Icon, the pled miff, had p ur ,oh :l , l ,l the mansion tract or • , ,',l-10 per aerie. Ile gave the note in question for part of the purehase money, and paid the same when it bacame due. Ile afterwards learned that three gentleman were present who bid at this and other tracts, and who, in fleet *wee 0 merely underbid ders " puf fers." (in learning thk, Mr. I,V. immediate ly gave notice Lind he would not take the property and Moneended to be repaid .the amount of the owe. On refusal he brought this suit. The low is well settled that if it party procures tutees to bid up a property, and the person who boys is deceived there by he cannot be held to his bid. It vitiates the sale and makes it void. The jury found n verdict for the plaintiff lot the full amount of his claim, A NEW WAY TO TELL To::.—An ex change gives the following singular method of telling the limo of day or night, which we copy for the benefit of those who wish to try the experiment : Scat yourself at a table. Attach it piece of metal, say a shilling to a thread. Having placed your elbow on a table, hold the thread between your thumb and forelinger, and allow the shilling to hang in the centre of a glass tumbler. The pulse will immediately cause the shilling to "vibrate like it pendulum, and the vibrations will increase until the shilling strikes the side of the glass ; and supposing the time of the experiment to be at the hour of seven, or half-past seven,the pendulum will strike the glass seven times, and then lose its mo mentum and _return to the centre. if you ho'd the thread a sufficient length of thine the effect will be repeated ; not until a suffi cient length of titne has elapsed to convince you that the experiment is complete. We need not add that the thread innst be hold with a steady hand, otherwise the vibrating motion would he counteracted. At what ever hour of the day or night the experi ment is made, the coincidence will be the same. W VAO,tnsss.—Tho weather for the past few ass hal been Very ehangable.

Witmer MIXED.—The Herald men are very sad ly mixed. On the question of syntax, the Classical Dictionary man asserts that we are right. The local editor, Secretary of council, &c., don't care, because he don't know. The Tariff man will not take issue with us, and produces no " author on syn tax" Unit will. He evidently realizes the untenable position he occupies, and of course we'll let him " back down," just to relieve him of the embarrassment. The tariff man has yet to learn that the use of words, phrases or sentences must often be justified by higher iauthority than some miserable author ou syntax, who compiles a book to sustain lite comfortably. There is not a page of Webster's Dictionary, which does not give numerous instances of the use of words, based entirely upon the au thority of distinguished scholars. There is such a quality as hypercriticism; to be guilty of that, indicates weakness. The occasional hurry, incident to all news paper offices, requires the greatest care hi order to avoid slight errors, as a plural for a singular verb. Such errors, together with such unfinished sentences as the fol lowing, ought not to be referred to Bullion: "Although it was made during the war ' when prices were inflated, and all of our city bithers belonged to the party of great moral ideas."—llcrald, Jan. 13th.

SPRINGS RUNAWAY.-" Ob server," our Silver Springs Correspondent, furnished us a communication last week in regard to the reported ungratefalness of Mr. John Moore,after the rescue of his horse by several friends. Mr. Moore has called at this office and desires us to state that though regarding the communication us the effu sion of some deliri 'us flip, he denies the al legations contained in it. Mr. Moore prompt ly thanked his friends fin• their kindness in arresting his animal, but declined to invite them into the hotel near by and help to snake hogs of men, who accept gratitude only in the shape of bad whisky. Mr. Moore feels grateful for all such ants of kindness, and will return similar favors whenever oppor tunities present themselves. His sense of duty and right, however, teaches him to de cline repaying kindness with whisky.

From Rolirerstown. 1101IREItSTOWN, JAN. 12, IS7O. EDiTOR SPy :—Silica writing my last let ter the spirits of many of our citizens have been very much revived by the arrival of a company of persons from a distance, who intend leasing the large rolling mill at this place, and set it again in working order. The prospects of this enterprise are good, and if the persons succeed in closing it bar gain with the owner, Col. Patterson, we will have a very brisk time again. Then probably the railroad company will conde scend to build us a depot that will be res pebtable enough for persons to enter.as the cabin now used as a depot is certainly not, in the condition it is now kept. Our friend, Mr. Geo. Gish, who is now carrying on the retail meat business here, is always supplied with the choicest slices of that very nobessary article. Yesterday evening while Mr. Henry Musser was coming to this place with a porker for one of our residents, he bad the fortune of picking from the dust, on the Harrisburg pike, a ten dollar note. The owner can have the money by proving it to be his property, as Mr. Musser is a very honorable man. On Jan 10th, Mr. Daniel Haverstick of this place, slaughtered two very fine porkers whose combined weight was a little less than eight hundred pounds. These are the best we have heard f yet in our neighbor hood. On last Saturday night the secondary de partment of our school house was entered by some person. Nothing of any value has been missed by the teacher in charge, and the conclusion arrived at by him is that it was a person who had no better place to rest during the night. During the cold weather of the past week some of our citizens, who have large ice houses, were watching the ice very closely so as to procure it at the earliest moment, but the rain and warm weather of last night has caused,much doubt as to the winter's ice crop: The peace or our town is at present very much disturbed at night by a crowd of boys who are allowed to prowl about the streets and make night hideous with their inces sant yelling. We trust that the proper per sons will take the matter in hand, and pro hibit it in the future. GASPER. KENNET SQUARE.—Kennet Square has had a first-class horse story. It does not implicate any of the heroes of the "Story of Kennet;" but several neighbors figure rather conspicuously. A West Chester pa per tells the story thus : It seems that on Tuesday of last week a Mr. Jackson of East Marlborough went to Kennet Square and hitched his horse to a post while he attended to some business. On his return the horse was gone and no trace of him could he discovered. The emus ing feature of the scene now comes in. It appears that Mr. James Wilson, of New London township, was to get a horse from his brother Henry, who lives in-London grove township. The arrangement was, that the latter should bring the horse to Kennett Square, and hitch it at the corner, near Mr. Garret's shoe store. Mr. W. took his hired man with him to the borough,and upon their arrival instructed him to go to the point designed, and if a horse was hitched there to take it home. The man did so, but unfortunately rode off the horse belonging to Mr. Jackson, the other not having arrived. After transacting sonic business, in passing along the street, Mr. Wilson noticed his brother's horse—the same that was to have been sent him—stand ing at the place agreed upon. Fearing that his hired man might have missed the ani mal, or gone off without it, ho untied and took it along. He was not a little surprised upon arriving at home to find that his hired man had reached there sometime before him with a strange horse. The loss of Mr. Jackson caused considerable excitement in the - usually quiet borough of Rennet, but when the matter became known, all parties enjoyed a hearty laugh at the singular mis take that had been made. FROM TILE YORK DEMOCP.A.T.—Proceed lags were started in our criminulsmart last week against two of our commissioners, charging those officials with corruption in their office. The Grand Jury were occupi ed in investigating the charge, but there was not sufficient evidence laid before that body ~to authorize theta in finding a LW. We are told that the parties preferring the churches against those officials, are not sat isfied with the result and intend renewing their proceedings at another day, but in what shape or form remains to be seen. There are some honest conscientious demo crats, we find, in the county, who are dis satisfied with the manner in which the peo ple's money is expended and are determin ed, if possible, to put a stop to all extrava gance and' corruption even if in doling it they incur the displeasure'and ill will of their party. WE S:{ .4 - ,5.110 _7. I A young wan by the name of Peter Hel trick, train Heidelberg township, who was attending court last week end who stopped at one of our hotels, had his pocket book stolen out of his bed room on Thursday night. It WS taken, by some one, out of his rest pocket while he was asleep. It con- . 9CI trained a Considerable sons of money in cur rency, a promisory note of one hundred dollars:in:l a check ibr his overcoat which had been left in charge of the clerk of the hotel. There were three other persons sleeping in the room, at the time, but as they are well known to be respectable, no suspicion attaches In that quarter. One of the doors leading in the Ithlt her was not locked and it issupposed that some night, prowler entered there and did the robberjr, and then escaped. AN ODD WAY OF MAKIN° Burrutt.—A singular method of making butter has late ly come into quite extensive uss in France, based upon the observed fact that cream is changed into butter by being simply buried the earth. The theory Of this result is not very intelligible, though the fact is s'ated to be beyond question ; and in Nor mandy and other parts of France butter is actually , prepared on a large scale in this way. The process consists in placing the cream io it linen bag of moderate thickness, which is carefully closed ; then burying the b ag a bout a rout and at half deep in the earth, mul allowing it to remain from t wen• tv-four to twenty-live hours. After the ex piration of this period the cream is found to have become hard, and it is then broken up by menus of a wooden beater, into small pieces, and enough w ter poured upon it to wa s h out•t he buttermilk. To prevent any mixture of earth it is advisable to enclose the bag in a second one of larger size and coarser quality. This method of making butter saves a great deal of labor, and sop crates the butter more perfectly than the ordinary process, and it is said that butter thus prepared Is of roost excellent quality.

The Americium Life Insur ance Company of Philadelphia is a coin .pany reliable and well managed. Fran a letter by our correspondent, Frank, written some time ago, and received too late for publhiation in current nu in ber of the SPY, we take the privilege of ex tracting the following : Building operations are still going on, not even the hardships of winter are severe enough to check the indomitable will and energy of some•of our enterprising citizens. The cellars for two new buildings have been dug within the month.• The demand for houses is so great that it seems neces ary to have now ones ready for spring. The parsonage of the Presbyterian church has been pushed forward with astonishing vigor; it is now ready for the plasterers, and is fast approaching completion. A gay and festive time was enjoyed dur- ing holiday week. The ladies of the borough and vicinity held a grand fair and festival in aid or the Presbyterian parsonage. On Thursday evening, the 23d ult., the fair opened- Ex tensive preparations were made to make the occasion as attractiye as possible, and right well they succeeded. The large room in‘Massasoit Hall, in which the fair was held, was handsomely decorated with flags, garlands and wreaths of evergreens. Many useful and fancy articles were offered for sale, thus affording persons an excellent opportunity to purchase christmas presents. Supper was provided each evening, for the trilling sum of twenty-five cents, when the palate of the most devoted follower of ]_•`pi curus could be tickled with the choice vi ands that graced the table. Hot cofiee,l'a w and stewed oysters, and ice cream, were served at all times during the continuance of the festival. The kitchen and cooking department wore under the supervision of the matronly ladies of the society, and the tables for the sale of useful and limey arti cles, toys, confectionaries, Cc., were pre sided over by the single ladies, whose youth and beauty was a sure guarantee of their magnetic power to attract the greenbacks from the pockets orthe sterner sex. Tae fair closed on Satur.lay evening. On Mon day afternoon, Dec. 27th, the Superintend end and teachers of the PreshSferitln Sab bath School gave the children of the school an entertainment, after which the articles remaining on hand, unsold, were disposed of at auction. Music was furnished each evening by the Harmonic Society of Stras burg. A prominent feature of the fair was a daily paper, edited and published by Geo. B. Eager,of this place,who gratuitously ex - hibitedeach evening the celebrated elephant, " Romeo." The "side shows" were also under the efficient management of Mr. Eager, whose mirth-provoking and side splitting abilities are well calculated to make him popular among those whd are fond of indulging iu a hearty laugh. The season fin• butchering fat hogs is nearly past. Titus far the heaviest one slaughter ed was litttened by Geo. B. Eager, it weigh ed when dressed 511 pounds. Mr. John Horner killed one that dressed about 535 pounds. Fat turkeys were in demand for Christmas dinners. One of the ways of elis posing of them here, is by .gettin g up shoot ing matches at twenty-five cents a shot, the the best shot taking the fowl. IL sometimes happens that one turkey is put up several times, thus realizing a profit each time to the owner,ltuti in the end, perhaps, costing the ott• who last wins it as much as if he had bought one in a regular way. A. very tine improvement made here with in the last year and worthy of notice is the dwelling house and drug store owned and occupied by Dr. J. E. Weaver. The old brick front of the store room has been torn out and a new wooden one put in. Instead of ono door and a window, there is now a window on each side of the door, a neat, handsome and permanent awning support ed by an iron frame, extends over the front of the store. The alterations have greatly added to the light inside of the store, and when lit up at night shows to a very great advantage. The whole building has l:.'en freshly painted. The Doctor is one of our young and enterprising citizens, and being unmarried is deserving of a good wife and %Wend patronage. It.tiv. IV. IL STECK IN KANSAS CITY. —We clip the following from the Kansas City Evening Bullet in of the third inst. It will he read with interest by the many friends of Mr. Sleek in this community: " We are grat flied to leant that the Eng lish Lutheran Congregation on New Dela ware street have at last secured the services of a minister in the person of the Rev. 'Arm. H. Steck, recently of Columbia, Penn. Yesterday morning and evening, services were held in their church, of a very inter esting character. The congregation seemed toappreciate deeply the occasion and tho discourses, which were both able and thor oughly practical. This congregation has been without a pastor since last April, yet notwithstanding this, they have kept to• gather, holding their regular Wednesday evening prayer meetings 'and Sabbath schools, lacking none of the interest, com mon to a regularly supplied congregation. They have now secured a pastor—a man 01 considerable ability as it preacher—and as a theologian mid one who has heretonne met with great success as a pastor. la tak iug charge of this congregation he has doubt less sacrificed many of the comforts inci dent to the pastoral life in the East, where the oho reh to which he belongs, is lar sand wealthy, but being fully Feasible of the wants of the congregation !Jura, their a hr,o lute need of a pastor, and the importune, of the task before him, he accepted the call unanimously extended to him, :lad is al ready in his field of labor. It is to be hoped that Rev. Mr. S. will re ceive the cordial support and - hearty co-op eration of his members, his ministerial brthern and the public gererally. The field in whic:i he is called to labor isii gre_at one. All over this western world it is ripe fur the harvest. The province of the Church to Which be is attached is peculiar, owing to its German origin, and thon , ands—and we might soy hundreds of thousands of German _Lutherans are scattered over on r broad acres, whose children become angli,:- ised, adopt our language and naturally seek tho church of their lathers. We doubt not. that Mr. S. will find much to do in our city; in that particular it will te , at his ice:torn! skill and his ability to collect together "the lost sheep the house of Ifr..trrimmi NoTnim.—We clip the fol lowing from the :Nfeehanicsburg Valley Democrat of the sth inst. Alter referring to he musical soiree, by the Female Institute it that place, the paper says : " The musical performances during the evening contributed in no small degree to the success of the soiree. As all the young ladies who participated in these exercises did well, we will mention but a few whose performances and vocalization entitle them to special notice. In our judgment, the best vocal solo was " Come E Bello," as r, •entlered by Miss Lizzie Hess. The vocal duet, "Two Forest Nymphs." by Miss M. Bird ond Mis's Lizzie Hess was exquisitly sung. Miss Maggie Hess gave the best in strume•ntal solo—Marche de Concert—of the o%ening. intovAr. or IMMAINS.—The work of re moving the remains of those buried along the North side or what was known as the Mifflin Cemetery, and now terming a part, of Mount Bethel Cemetery, will be com menced in a day or two.
