CORR ESPONDJENCE
To tbo Editor of Tub Cardan Auvjcitk;
Deaii Sik : In your Issue of tho 8rd
Inst., there appeared a correspondence
headed "Dots from Parryvllle," by
one " Hnrpoerntes." To the last item
of that correspondence, with your kind
permission, I would respectfully reply.
The gentlemnn who sent the communi
cation, especially that part of It which
relates to the trio of ladles from
Parryvllle," has celtainly been "hard
up" for news, or ho would not have
been so hasty as to pen: to your spicy
little "Advocate" nn Item apparently so
unimportant. He speaks ot nn occur
rence which ho would lntlmatn as laugh
able, as though It had actually trans
pired, and yet he admits that his only
nuthorlty for tlio facts In' tho easels
Madam Rumor. Methlnks that .he Is
related to the old lady. At nil events,
the, whole affair seems to bear tho marks
of tinkering,- which fact leads mo to
wonder whether.. " n.iipocratoA" isiiol
a tin-Smlth, ov'somo other kind of a
Smith I The gentlemnn Is evidently
unacquainted witli the ladies of Parry
vllle, or he would not bu gut ty of such
an Intimation nslie lias made, viz: that
the ladies of Parry vlllo are not eques
trienne. And then ugnin, such a funny
way of putting it I Says he, " While
otio proceeded to turn tho horse tho
other two attempted to turn the carri
age" 1 1 As though the turning of the
liorso did not necessitate thu turning of
tlio carrlagu 1 It is really a novel thing
to hear such a rendering; of turning
horses. Thu who n'ffalr has thu appear
ance of a mere " get Up," and bears the
impress of. a joke- rather than a stern
reality. . I cannot, for a moment sup
pose that " Harpuciates'' is In earnest
in what he says,'n'nd hence trust that
he will not harp upon so trivial and un
certain a matter again, but rather that
lie may imltnto tho wisdom of Hippo-
cintes, nnd for thu future placo his
Harp upon tun willow.
Itespectrully,
Whip roon-wiLL.

Town Hall.
To thtl Kdltorof Tnc Camion Advocate
Silt I thank you for tho privilege of
sayhis n few words on tho above sub
ject, as jntlmated In your.Iast issue. To
begin with then, allow me to say that
I heartily agreo with all you nave said
upon the subject,-nnd I find that every
man with whom Ihavo spoken so agrees
with you. The only fault I 'find with
what ynu tald Is, that you did not say
moro and say It stronger.
The fact that we should havo been at
so much expeiiio in building so good n
school-house, and, before It Is finished,
have nn attempt made by a single Indi
vidual to monopolize any part of It for
his own benefit to tho exclusion of thu
many, when all alike, are paying for it,
Is simply outrageous. If the School
Board have any shadow of right to rent
the hull for private purposes, or If there
is money to bo made by so doing, let
them treat with tho Immediate parties
themselves aud make nil the money they
can tliey'need It. We want no specu
lating with public property In Lehigh-
ton there has been-enough of that sort
of thing all over tho country nlready.
But the very spirit and Intent ot tlio
School law denies ally such right to.niiy
School Board. I am Informed that our
School Board have assumed thlsilbt,
and actually passed a resolution to this
effect. Cleiitlemen, you have douo
wrong, and tho taxpayers won't stand
It " no Low you can tlx it." ! -
I havo also been Informed that Dr. .
Rtber.moved- this action of the Mcbool
Board.- At first I wot 'somewhat stir
prised at this, but when t Is considered
what a delicate position ho-was plncod
In, be cannot be much blamed ho had
a halt of his own to rent, nnd If ho had
shown tho least coolness towards thu
proposition bo would have appeared as
acting from personal motives. Yes,
tho pr. was excu-able, and Iho Board
to blame for entertaining tho aotloiiv
In this concretion, Mr. Editor," allow
on to be Utile person!-. It teems to
mo that whenever the School Hoard hn
seen fit to tskn any notion that happen
ed to meet with the dhnnprovul of thu
community, Dr. Reher hns had Itr
li"tiMeT tho lion's fhnre of the bin me.
Whether this Is rigid, nnd just I know
not, I only know tint if I could ny

P A I N- KILLER!
For Over Thirty Yours
Peny Davis' Vegetable Pain-Killer
Tins lieeji tested in every variety ot
cllimitc, nnd by almost i-very
nation kuown'to .-lmerlcnii.s.
It is the constant companion nnd
estimable friend of tlm nilssioinry nnd
thu traveler, lilt sea nnd Intnl. and no
out! should travel on our Lukes or
Rivers without It '
It has been before tho publlu over
thirty years, and probably has a wider
and better reputation than any other
I roprietary medicine of the prescntday.
At this period I hero are hut few unac
quainted with tho merits of the P.dn
Klller, but while some exlol it ns a lini
ment, they know hut litlluof its power
in easing pain when taken internally,
while otheiH u-c It internally with gieat
success, but nro equally iunor.ut of its
healing virtues -a hcunpplh-d externally.
Wo therelore wish to say to all that It Is
equilly sticce-sfitl whether ued Intern
ally or externally, and itstamls to-day,
unrivalled by all tho great eatalonnu of
liunily iiicdk'lues It Issiilllt-ientevideuco
of its virtues as a standard medicine, ,to
know that it Is now used in all parts'of
the world and that its sale is constantly
increasing. No curative agent ims had
such wide spread sale or giveii such
universal sallsfactsou. It is a purely
vegetable compound, nnd perfectly safe
in unskillful hands.
After thirty years trial, It Is still receiv
ing tile most unqualified tistimoiilals to
its vli tues, from persons of tho highest
character and responsibility. Physi
cians of tlio first respectability, recom
mended it ns ii most effectual prepara
tion' for tho extinction of imln.' It is
not only the best remedy ever Uliown
forBiulM's, Cuts, Burns; &c, but l'6r
Dysentery or Cholera or any sort of
bowel complaint, It is a remedy unsur
passed lor ellleiency anil rapidity or
action. In the -gteat cities of Inula,
and other hot climates, It has' become
thu Stamla il Medlvlho for nil Such
complaints, ns well as for Dyspepsia,
Liver Complaints, uti.t other kindred
disorders. ForCoughs aud Colds, Can

tles, it, lias been proved by the most
abundant nnd convincing testimony to
be an invaluable medicine.
