A BOLD BURGLARY. —The treasurer's
office was broken into on Sunday
morning about one o'clock, by prying
the shutter on the alley adjoining Alex
ander's, and the safe door blown off
with powder, a considerable quantity
of which must have been used, as it
forced off the door from its fastenings,
threw down a stove several feet off,
and sprung the walls. The explosion
was heard by several persons in the
neighborhood. It is supi>osed the par
ty or parties who made this attempt i
at robbery, were present on Saturday j
in the Commissioners' office when the
treasurer received nearly a thousand
dollars, and under the impression that
it was kept in the safe, went to a great
deal of trouble for nothing. Besides
the books some orders and pennies
werein it,but they appeared tohavebecn
undisturbed. The books were some
what injured by tho powder, and were
lying on the floor. The powder used
was apparently wrapped in pieces of
the Budget of Fun, Comic Monthly or
Yankee Notions. If any of the store
keepers sold powder last week wrapped
in such paper, it is hoped information
will at once he given, as it might afford
a clue to the burglar. It is a wonder
the building was not set on fire, as
some pieces of cotton, &c. bear strong
marks of having been on fire.
ACCIDENTS. —On last Thursday, at
shaft No. 1 at Banks' ore mine, Wm.
Beatty, sen.,met with an accident which
might have been fatal. Mr. B. while
descending said shaft in the bucket,
fell out while sixteen feet from the bot
tom, breaking his arm, besides being
bruised internally. He was at first
thought dead, but being lifted to a sit
ting posture revived. Simon Yeager,
of this place, while standing at the
bottom was struck by tho bucket on
the top of his head, knocking the hair
off. . j
flsfThe School Journal for January
pays the following well-deserved tribute
to Azariah Smith, formerly of this
county:
"This gentleman, so well known to the
readers of this Journal and the Teachers
of the State some years ago, as the able
Superintendent of Mifflin county, after a
tour of duty in the South-west—in what
capacity we are not exactly informed, but
no doubt doing good*—is now in Boston,
connected with the publication and circu
lation of "Our Young Folks." We arc
glad and sorry for this; —glad, that he is in
a department of usefulness still pertaining
to the interests ot youth, and sorry to have
lost him from our own State.
"No more genial nature, riper scholar,
more accomplished teacher, or better
equipped man, ever held the office of
County Superintendent in Pennsylvania;
and we did hope, till now, that again be
might he found at what always appeared to
us to be his proper post, amongst her blue
hills and ciear streams. But it seems to
have been otherwise decreed; and we can
but wish him abuudaut success ia his new
field of labor.
"As to that field we have a word to say.
Higher and more influential, for the good
ot the rising generation, should be the po
sition of Mr. Smith, than that of attending
to the material iuterests of any work as an
investment or mere book selling publica
tion. We never met, in Pennsylvania,
and we question if there is even in his own
New England, a man more adequate, by
gitts ot nature, knowledge and experience,
to take the editorial control of such a work
d-an he Good as "Our young Folks" is,
wc teel very certain that in his controlling
hands it would still become better and soou
he recognized as one ot the moral forma
tive agencies of the present.
"Our frieud will excuse these words.—
Ihey could not be withheld, and are quite
much in sorrow at losing him, as in that
commendation which all here concede."
* Mr. 8. was connected with the telegraphic depart
ment of the armies of the CumVx-rlitiid. and was sta
t.MUci a: Nashville, Tennessee, until the close of the
where himself and lady acquired the noble title
the soldiers' friends, as we have abundant testimo
from the lips of numerous men who were in the
s- rvice of their country during those trying limes.—

MANUFACTURING. —Our remarks las
week OH what our community ought
to rely For prosperity, have elicited
the following communication from a
basiness man, which will commend it
self to our readers. Besides the busi
ness he speaks of there are several
others which might either be urged
with it, or to follow it, as sound policy
would perhaps dictate the propriety
of carrying out one at a time. Among
these, we know of none more likely to
pay than a paper mill, an institution
long wanted in the interior, the merits
of which it is unnecessary to discuss,
as they are self-apparent. Between this
and Huntingdon there is also open one
of the finest opportunities for estab
lishing a glass manufactory to ie found
anywhere. Persons traveiin .j on the
railroad may have noticed a ridge com
posed of white sand and rock on some
bluffs not far from Mill Creek, which
is said to make the finest quality of
white glass. This sand, it may not be
generally known, is now taken to
Pittsburgh, a distance of about one
hundred and 6ixty miles, there manu
factured, and thence sent off over the
United States.
LEWISTOWN, Jmuary IS, 1866.
MR EDITOR .* —I notice in vctr is
sue some truthful s;int* relative, u, ,ar mL
of capital. There is nothing more ccttatc
than that something beside the buying
ot grain and selling of dry goods must be
resorted to by the moneyed men of our
town if we wish to keep above the grade
of a one horse place. Lewistown is most
favorably situated as a business centre, and
if the natural advantages surrounding us
are improved, instead of being dependent
upon grain alone lor a business. Mcnnfac
tories of all kinds will spring up and the
capital turned into a different channel.
The railroads springing up in this and
surrounding counties are sl->wiy but surely
cutting us off as a grain market, but they
are at the same time increasing our facili
ties for engaging profitably in manufac
tures.
It is proposed by some of our citizens to
establish a Shoe Manufactory here The
capital to successfully start a concern that
would manufacture from 150,600 to 200,-
000 pairs of shoes per year would be from
soo,ooo to 50,000, and these it sold at a
single profit of 10 cents per pair clear of all
expenses would amount to $15,000 or a
profit of 50 per cent, on the capita! invest
ed It might be possible that so much
could not be realized the first year, but if
even the one-half were made it would yield
25 per cent, on the investment, which is
far more than is made by any investments
in seenrities. But the advantages would
not be confined alone to the manufactory
To make that number of shoes per v
would require from eighty to one huudr
operators, thereby securing a steady un
profitable employment to men, women and
boys. The community would then be re
lieved in a great measure from the evils of
an unemployed population who., through
want of anything be.ter. are nlv. ays eogag
ed in some mischief or other "Satan finds
some mischief still for idle hands to do "
And many women now scare lv able Iron;
the sewing they get to live, would tie able
iu a short time to m ike a r> spec ble live
lihood, with an occasional r- ; it- from a
bor, a thin, they much require I w no-',
never get. The Shoe Manutact. r, tv
necessarily introduce u w c riz-n- '.r
would be impossible to get all our labor at
home,and these must have houses, and from
the scarcity now felt by those in want of
homes for the coming year, it is appareutthat
houses would have to be built which iu
turn would employ the mechanics in the
several branches of trade, so that I can
conceive if this were gone into, that there
would tea resurrection of the good old times
we often talk about. It may be asked, can
a Shoe Manufactory be conducted to com
pete v.th Etcfern made work ? Why not?
We c.-.n have the sain:, machinery and the
benefit of their experience. The Leather
is now ma LU factored here, and 3eut to
Philadelphia or New York, to the c ra
mission men, who sell at a 5 per cent, com
mission to the shoe men in Massachusetts,
the leather is then taken from these places
to the manufactory, and in due course of
time is returned to the Wholesale Mer
chants of Philadelphia, New York and
Boston, in the shape of boots and shoes,
where they are again sold to tho country
merchants at an advance of from 20 to 30
per cent., and the country dealers again
sell them to the couisumer at an advance
of from 30 to 50 per cent.
I feel satisfied that a saving of freight
and commission could be made by our buy
ing our stock from the tanners in this and
the adjoining couuties, and after being
made into 6hoes, if we secured the home
custom to ourselves, we woull save the
wholesale profit in the cities and the trans
portation from them to the consumers. If
men can come from Massachusetts to Phil
adelphia and buy the leather made in Mif
flin and adjoining counties, at the market
rate, with 5 per cent and freight added,
take this leather to the East, manufacture
it into boots and shoes, and send it again
to Philadelphia to be sold wholesale and
shipped through the country, why cannot
we in Mifflin couDty buy our leather at
home, less the freight and commission, and
manufacture shoes at a less rate than our
Eastern shoe men ? There is no establish
raent of this kind in Huntingdon, Centre,
Juniata, Snyder and Union counties, and
estimating the amount of trade iu thc
counties by the amount of machine m
work now -old in Mifflin county per year,
we can have <obt of there being *n
ample oj-trket f a:i we cou.d make. It
ia estimated by those in the trade that at
least $50,000 worth of this kind of work
is sold in this county alone in one year,
and putting the other five counties down
at the same late we have a home market
of $300,000 worth of shoes per year, with
very little transportation to contend with.
I hope the men of capital who desire, not
'■nly to make good investments, but to
uild up the town, will give this subject a
serions consideration. Depend upon it
the scheme is a feasible one, snd if we do
not move in it some Eastern capitalists, at
tracted here by our natural advantages,
will invest their money and take the op
portunity from us.

INFANTICIDE. —Some dogs uncovered
a young child on M'Kee's tan bank on
Monday last, over which an inquest
was held by Coroner Miller, and a ver
dict rendered that it came to its death
at the hands of some person unknown
to the jury. A woman has left fur

CANCER CAN BE CURED.
Dr. Hebern, of' Quincev, Illinois,
cures cancer without knife, pain, or
loss of* blood, in from four to twenty
f'our hours; also treats consumption
successfully. lv.
IT LOOKS LIKE CONSUMPTION
Never neglect diseased lungs until con j
sumption sets in and you are pronounced in
curable. Always attend to a complaint at
once "A stich in time saves nine." is an |
adage quite as applicable to bodily ailments 1
as'to business transactions. Remember that
your life is in danger, however insignificant i
may seem to be the malady in is first ap !
proaches; and. as it is "the best life you got, j
and you may never get a better," (to use John
Wesley's quaint language,) take care of it. j
The use of Had way's Ready Relief in the
incipient 6tages of consumption will always I
avert the grip of that fatal affliction. We j
bate personally known cases of diseased lung
abicb looked just like consumption, and j
which had many of the symptoms accem j
panying it of confirmed consumption, that j
gave way immediately to Radwav's Ready
Relief taken as a stimulant, in hot sweetened
water on going to bed at night. The perspi
ration occasioned by it was copious and ex
tremely offensive, but it carried ff ili tr •
dangerous symptom®, and a

arterial circulation, and the Ready Relief is I
certain to effect such a wholesome change if
its application be persevered in. Not that we
assert it to be a remedy for any decided case !
of consumption. We cannot conscientiously ;
aver that. But we do say, we utter it with j
confidence, that it has cured, aod that it will ;
cure, many cases which look like consump |
tion, and may be called consumption in its j
incipient state. That may be depended upon. !
The Ready Relief is sold bv druggists.
N B.—As an evidence of the importance
of Radwav's Ready Relief, in the treatment
of weak iuugs, colds, and premonitory syrnp.
turns of consumption, we present the follow
i' " *cr from a well known citizen of Mich
MEMPHIS, Macomb co., Mich.,)
September 4, 18G2. j
"1)R. RADWAY :—Dtar Sir —About four;
years since 1 was very much affected with
DISEASED LCXGS. My friends thought I had !
the Consumption. I was entirely unfit for
business,raised blood, arid had every symptom
of the above disease- One night, on going to
bed, I thought I would take a sweat, and
took your Ready Relief (in hot water) as a
stimulant to sweat me, It did so. The per
spiration was of a slimy substance, and offen
sive smell. I followed taking the Ready Re
lief every other night for four weeks, and at j
the end of that time was entirely well This
is a true statement of facts, which 1 wili tes

Lewistown, Jan. 10, 18G6,
OF THE
G-reat Rebellion.
TIIE late Rebellion stands out peculiar
and extraordinary in human events; and
the magnificent scale upon which the war has
been conducted, constitute it one of the
GRANDEST AND MOST BRILLIANT CHAPTERS OF
THE WORLD'S HISTORY.
Mr. Ileadley, of all writers, is perhaps best
qualified to portray the stupendous features
!of the mighty contest. His previous works
; on less momentons themes have placed him
in the first position, as a graphic and power
ful delineator of war scenes and characters.
aUd tbe magnitude and grandeur of the j r<--
enV subject, impart to his pen the fire „ud
vigor of a yet more exalted inspiration od
furnish ample scope for the highest exhibition
of his peculiar genious for military deeerip
tion. Under his powerful pen the stirring
scenes of tbe War pass in review with the
vividness and distinctness of a present and
living reality, while his great talent fur con
j densatinn enables him to embody everything
I of importance in a compass just suited to the
pjl.lic want. From no other source can so
i clear a d comprehensive an impression of
the grand march of events be obtained, so
easily and agreeably, as from Mr. Headley's
work. Other histories have been issued be
fore Grant's Report and other Official Docu
ments were submitted to the Government,
i and are therefore unreliable. Mr. Ileadley
has delayed the completion of this till those
documents so essential to authenticity and
correctness could be obtained.
Tbe second volume, completing this work,
will be issued in March, 1866. Agents want
ed to engage in its sale in every town and
county in the United States. Liberal induce
ments offered. For particulars apply >u or
