fc&tV The Senior Editor of the Gazette

Real Estate Agency.
Mineral Discoveries. —A few days ago
we were shown a specimen of iron (ire
from the mines of Mr. J. W. Boodey,
some four miles below Mount Union,
along the Juniata river, which contained
a considerable amount of golrl and also
some silver. Mr. Boodey's lands adjoin
those of the "Sugar Valley Ore and Ot her
Company," of which we made mention
a few weeks ago. Mr. Charles V. Trew,
the gentleman who showed us the speci
men, says the ore has been assayed, and
proves to contain twelve dollars and eighty
cents of goid and eighty cents of silver
to the ton. There are said to beamiliion
tons of the ore; also immense deposits of
oeher of every color, and clay suitable for
mak ing stone and china ware.—J it. Union
Times.
The lands spoken of above are located
in Miftliu eounty, in the Sugar Valley
region. The prevalence of gold and
silver in rocks and earthy matter is noth
ing new, as some can no doubt he found
in nearly every square mile in the State.
The misfortune however is that it costs
more to extract it than it is worth, though
the above, if correct, gives more gold to
the ton than is generally the case. The
clay we suspect will prove of more value
than the gold and silver.
Lewistown Academy- —At the recent elec
tion the following were constituted Trus
tees of the Lewistown Academy for the
ensuing year, viz: Wm. B. Hoffman,
President; Thomas M. Uttley, Secretary;
Wm. Russell, Treasurer; Joseph M. Cog
ley, X. .T. Rud is ill, John B. Selheimer,
Henry Zerlie, Amos Hoot, H.J.Walters,
John Hamilton, George Blymyer, H.
Frysinger, George W. Elder, John W.
Shaw, and F. G. Franclscus.
The attention of our readers is call
ed to the Advertisements in another col
umn of Messrs. Berger, Shutts & -Co.,
Chemists, Troy, X. Y. They are manu
facturers of, and agents for, some of the
most valuable Toilet preparations in use.
By their use all may possess a clear, smooth
skin, or a healthy and luxuriant growth
of hair upon the head or face. Those of
our readers having use for anything of the
kind, would do well to patronize them.
Killed in Saw Mill.—David A. Ludwig,
of Yeagertown in this county, a young
man about IS years of age, was instantly
killed, in Hale & Go's saw mill at Phillips
burg, Centre county, on Friday a week.
He was engaged, we learn from the Dem
ocrat, in sawing lath, and in attempting
to cross a shaft was caught by it, and his
body from his shoulders down literally
crushed. Death of course was instanta
neous. His remains- were buried on Sun
day following in Yeagertown Cemetery.
Do you know what that large pile
of i>oxes in front of Itittenhouse & Mc-
Kinueys' Store last week indicated? That
the Spring and Summer Stock had arri ved,
of course. Those goods were shelved and
marked extremely low. It is important
to know who selis cheap. Look at their
list of prices in to-day's advertisement.
Whisky Inspectorship.—Our readers will
remember that E. K. Locke, esq., was
last fall summarily removed as Inspector
at Locke's Mills distillery, and Capt. Seth
Benner appointed in his place. A week
or two ago Captain Benner went through
the same operation, Ner Thompson of
Armagh township having been appointed
in his place. Rotation in office we be
lieve is democratic, or at least used to be.
All in a blaze over our new Oil
Shades —we have from the most delicate
and fashionable colors, down to the com
mon brown 011 sale this week —they arc
very heavy and the most durable shade
you can buy; also, French Curtain Loops
and Hooks, Picture Nails, Shade Knobs,
&c.,ond a new lot of very handsome Pic
ture Tassels and Cord. Just opened an
other stock of very rich and heavy Tea
Tray and Waiters
AT THE BIG COFFEE POT SIGN.
Shows. —On Saturday Dan Rice's circus
exhibited here, and of course drew together
a considerable crowd, though the day
and evening were raw and cold for the
season. On Monday evening the Fakir
of Vishnu re-opened in the Town Hall
with a crowded house, and closed last
evening with another. To-morrow even
ing the Valley Vocalists will give a eon
cert in the Town Hall.
A district convention of Good Tem
plar® will meet here to day, and continue
in session until to-morrow. Rev. M<>
Murray will deliver an address this even
ing in the Town Hall, which of course
will be crowded to hear liim.
A new schedule went into opej'iltiori on
Monday last on the Pennsylvania Rail
road. No material change has been made
in the day trains. A fast line west leaves
the city at 7.H0 p. ni., passing here
about 2 a. m., and arriving at Pittsburg
between 9 and 10 a. m.
The Weather has again been quite va
riable during the past week. On Wednes
day morning last snow fell thick and fast,
continuing through most of the day. On
Friday morning we had a heavy frost,
which however did but little injury. On
Saturday a chilly air prevailed, and on
Monday and Tuesday wet, though but
little rain fell.
Conference Appointments.—The fiftieth
annual session of the African M. E. Con
ference was held at Baltimore last week.
The following are among its appointments
of ministem for the ensueing year :
Harrisburg—Rev. A. Wilson.
Cliambersburg—Rev. J. Tynes.
Lewistown —Rev. E. J. W. Hammond.
Williamsport—Rev. I. J. Pindel.
The next meeting of the Conference
will be held at Annapolis, in 1808.
Workingmen's Meetings, Reedsville. —We
have the proceedings of two meetings held
at Reedsville for the purpose of organizing
a Workingmen's Party. The Jirst was
organized by appointing J. F. M'Kinley
President and C. C. Burkliolder Secreta
ry. The only business transacted seems
to have been the passage of a resolution
to withhold their support from all per
sons that will not endorse them. [What
persons do they support?] At the second
meeting it. 11. Cupples was appointed
('hairman and 14.11. Bell Secretary. They
then proceeded to pass a preamble and
resolutions setting forth that they form a
political organization from which candi
dates are to be selected for all offices, end
ing with a request for the county papers
to publish them. As an item of news
they are too long for the room we have,
and besides we would suggest that as
printers are also working men, it is hard
ly fair to ask them to work for nothing.
Pictures.—James W. Smith has remov
ed his Photograph Gallery to the well
known stand formerly occupied by his
father, on Main street, near the Town
Hall, where he is now prepared to execute
all kinds of Pictures in the best style.—
Photographs from life size to the tiniest
gem can he procured at his rooms. With
facilities increased and improved —good
light and first-rate instruments —he feels
able to please the most fastidious tastes.
He invites all to visit his establishment.
Everybody Wants fine.
Every Family needs a good Sewing Ma
chine. With it a week's sewing can be done
in a day. Men buy various kinds of patent
ed Implements, sit great cost, to save them
selves labor or facilitate its accomplishment!
Why not occasionally buy one that will be a
help to their wives? Surely no good hus
band will refuse to buy his wife a Sewing
Machine, especially since a good, reliable
one can be had for the small sum of 52- >, at
Frysinger's Agricultural and Household Im
plement Agency. Call and see it work.—
You can't help being pleased with it. It is
beautiful, simple in construction, and war
ranted for live years.

NOTICE.
The beautiful Piano Fortes of GXOVESTEXN A Co. are
deemed by all good judges to be the Ultima Thulc of
instruments of the kind.
We cannot suggest what 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, they 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 butjustice to say tnat thejudgmenethus pronounced
has 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 ha been made. They have accordingly
achieved the paradox of making excellence more
excellent. Surely. after this, they are entitled to the
motto "Excelsior." novl4-ly
