Agricultural Land Scrip-—-As many per
sons do not seem to comprehend the ad
vertisement published for some weeks in
the Gazette relative to the proposals for
Land Scrip, it may not be out of place to
say that this presents an unusual oppor
tunity for procuring public or government
lands. Proposals will be received for a
quarter section (160 acres.) half or whole
section, or ten, twenty, fifty or more quar
ter, half or whole sections. This scrip
can l>e located on any public lands sub
ject to entry, in the United States, and
can no doubt be procured much cheaper
than it can IK* purchased from the govern
ment. The highest bids at the last sale
were 00 cents per acre, the lowest 55cents,
the latter probably for large tracts. The
proposals must l*i forwarded to the Sur
veyor General by Wednesday next.
Tire.— The large brick barn ou the farm
lately owned by John Brought, now the
property of Thomas Mayes, about a mile
west of town, was discovered to be on fire
on Monday morning, between four and
five o'clock. The live stock belonging to
Mr. Brought was still in the stables and
was with some difficulty got out safe, but
a quantity of hay, straw and corn, to
gether with a new spring wagon owned
by Robert H. Shaw of this place, were
consumed. The alarm in town was not
given until nearly five o'clock, and al
though a large number of jiereons repaired
to the spot, the file had done its work.
The morning fortunately was calm, with
showers of rain, or the house would
also have shared the fate of the barn. Mr.
Brought had removed a great part of his
personal property, as well as his son who
was lately, stabbed with a knife, and in
tended to leave finally on that day. The
hour at which it caught, with some other
circumstances, point strongly to incendi
arism. The barn was insured for $2500
in the Kensington Company, which will
cover the loss.

Sucker Pishing.— During the past win
ter an immense number of suckers were
• aught with hook and line in the Kisha
< oquillas dams, the fresh waters of which
make them an excellent pan fish. This
mode of fishing in the winter, although*
well known to old fishermen, was hut lit
tle praticed lately until again successfully
revived by Mr. Leper, whose unaccounta
ble "luck" stirred up a battalion of o'^
nd young in pursuit of the finny tribe.
' . .eat exertion was made to ascertain the
Cie "hexerei" he used, and the apotheca
ries sold lots of assafcetida, oil of rhodium,
■;! of amber, &c. to mix with the worms
Vxed for bait. Like ail other fishermen
"one Mere successful, others not. As
s pring came on fishing was transferred to
'be river, and thousands of suckers have
b en caught during the past two or three
\eeks, though mostly those known as
white suckers, a bony and much poorer
i di than those more closely allied to the
l.iiillet.

The best information about the most

journal, the American Agriculturist. Wc
have received the April number, ami it
fully carries out the publisher's promise
to always keep 011 making every number
better than the previous one. This, like
every other issue thus far this year, has
eight large pages extra. Thissingle num
ber contains between forty and fifty pleas
ing and instructive engravings, one of
them a full page, and several others very
large and beautiful. A full three-page
calender of Work to be Done will furnish
many useful hints for the farm, garden
and household. A slashing article on
Humbugs exposes by name a large num
ber of the swindlers of country people.
There are, besides, more than a hundred
articles and items full of instruction to
every cultivator of a garden plot, or a
farm. More than 150,000 j>eople now en
joy the advantages offered by the Agri
culturist, and everybody else, and his wife
(and children also,) should have it. Its

The beautiful Piano Fortes of GROVESTEEN A Co. are
deemed by all good judges to be the Ultima Thulc of
instruments of the kind.
We cannot suggest whsit is wanting to make a mu
sical instrument more pertect, although we are slow
to admit that the limit of improvement can ever be
attained.
Before they had brought their Pianos to their pre
sent excellence, thov had submitted them to compe
tition with instruments of the best makers of this
country and Europe, and received the reward of mer
it, over all others, at the celebrated World's Fair. It
is butjusticeto say tnatthejudgment thus pronounced
lias not been overruled by the musical world.
Still, by the improvements lately applied by them
to their Pianos, it is admitted that a more perfect in
strument has been made. They have accordingly
aclweved the paradox of making excellence more
excellent. Surely, after this, they are entitled to the
motto "Excelsior." novl4-ly

MARRIED
In Mount Joy, Pa., on the 26th ult., at
the residence ot the bride's parents, by
I Rev. J. p. Miller, MICHAEL HINEY, of
Lewistown, and Miss MARY A. KREINEU,
of Mount Joy.
By the above it will be seen that our
Register and Recorder, to whom be long
lile and happiness, has taken an assistant.
DIED
Communicated.
In Lewistown, on the 20th of March,
1867, Mrs. NANCY VINES, aged about 82
years.
1 he deceased emigrated to this country
with her parents probably in 1706. She
became pious when quite young, and was
tor many years a member of the Presby
terian church. After removing to this
place in 1841, she connected herself with
the Methodist congregation, of which she
had been since that time, a zealous and
efficient member. For several years she
was unable, from increasing infirmity, to
attend church, but was always punctual
and taithful in the discharge of her pri
vate religious duties. Her Master's sum
mons came to her suddenly at last, and
she died, giving bright evidence that she
has gone to be forever with the Lord.
On (lie 23d March, in Mechanicsville,
DASIE, daughter of Joseph and Rachel
Potts, aged 7 years, 3 months and 19 days.
Dear little Dasie has gone to rest. After
long hut patient sullering, death is over
and never will our loved one sutler more.
No, no; comforting thought in our sore
bereavement, her cherub face may now
forever wear asmile. But alas! how sadly
we shall miss our dear little sister from
our home-circle. We can scarcely realize
the pakiful truth that her place is vacant
there —that her angel voice will no more
mingle with ours in singing those infant
songs which she loved to hear and delight
ed to sing—that she will come no more
witli her little hands reverently clasped to
kneel at mother's knee to lisp her evening
prayer. Oil! how sadly we shall miss her,
only oar aching hearts can know. Her
sweet disposition endeared her to ;dl her
playmates, while to father, mother and
sisters she was a treasure of untold value.
Our lave was almost idolatry—and God in
his wise though mysterious way saw best
to remove our darling from us—to trans
plant our little ilower in the bright fields
of Paradise, where our Dasie is now a
perfect flower, of celestial fragrance, des
tined to immortal bloom.
