Door Gongs, which we will put up to
order —they pome cheap—all can now

A Mystery Solved,—On Sunday night
last, just as the heavy droppings from the
clouds had ceased, and the many lighted
chamber windows betokened that people
were seeking their couches for repose, and
one lone star peeped through the clouds
upon the affairs of men, and while hush
and calm pervaded nature, (except the
yelp of a troublesome canine) a myste
rious light, gleaming like a huge star, ap
peared nu the top of Ard's Hill, then
slowly descended, with all the grace of
t le wonderful ignis fatntis, to the base of
said elevation. Two ladies, out enjoying
the fresh air, or brought forth by instinc
tive fbrbodings of evil upon such dreadful
occasions, wandered up the dark street,
peering with curious eyes into the thick
blackness surrounding the awful appear
ance. They returned, however, shaking
their heads and wondering. This terrible
apparition, at such an early hour of the
night, proved to be—a man carrying a lan
tern.
Corn Planters Wanted.—Tlie protracted
rains have thrown back corn-planting in
this county; but fortunately all farmers
who hand in their orders soon, at Frvsin
ger's Agricultural Implement Agency,
can be supplied witli Corn Planters or
Droppers! whichever they want,) that will
do up the work in a few days.

scores out, plants, plasters, and covers, all
at the same time, liesides putting in pump
kin seeds, if desired. Also, Wanbaugh's
and Heidler's, which are both old and
popular machines.
He has also a capital little Corn Drop
per, with which one boy can drop corn in
hills as fast as four men. Price only $24.
Base Ball Match.—The game played in
this place on Saturday last, between the
Meteor Club, of Mifflintown, and the
Hope, of Lewistown, resulted in a com
plete victory for the latter. The score
stood, Hope 43; Meteor 22.
Foot Cut. —Irwin, a son of John Miller,
of this place, cut his foot badly witli an
axe on Monday last, whilst on the moun
tain across the river chopping. He was
brought to town on a horse furnished by
Mr. yager.
CSTThe G. T. District Convention held
here on Wednesday and Thursday last,
was not largely" attended, only 60 dele
gates having reported. Rev. J. S. Mc-
Murray, Grand Worthy Chief Templar,
was present, and at the public meetingon
Wednesday evening delivered a masterly
address. The next will assemble at Liv
erpool. Perry co., on the 7th August.

ever they may appear.

freight, had one of his heels seriously in
jured at Mapleton hist week. This is the
second time he has been hurt in a few
months.
Two or three dollars mysteriously dis
appeared from Yingling & Gruver's mon

A man named Bausman, employed on

drawing knife at a wagon body, inflicted
a deep gash in his knee.
A Word of Caution.—Our readers in hay
ing cheap Sewing Machines, should be
careful in making the selection. There
are but two low priced Machines made in
this country which are really PATENTED,
namely, the " BAUTLETT," of New
ork, and the "Shaw & Clarke" of Maine;
and the " BART LETT" is the only one
that is also fully LICENSED by the manu
facturers of the higher-priced machines. 1
\Ve mention this because those who buy
or xuse an infringing machine are just as
liable to prosecution, under the U. S. pat
ent laws, as are those who make or sell it.
WANTED.—A lot of ground, in or
near the borough, from Ito 2 acres. For ]
a suitable one, a fair price will be paid. !

REEDSVILLE, April 18th, ISG7.
Pursuant to a call of the Workingmen
of Brown township to discuss the proprie
ty of organizing a Workingmen's Party,
a meeting was called to order hy the elec
tion of J. F. McKinley as chairman, and
C. C. Burkholder, secretary. The subject
as aforementioned, was called forand'dis
cussed preparatory to submitting a vote,
which resulted in a unanimous voice in
favor of the organization.
Resolved, That we will withhold our
support from ail presses that will not en
dorse the (politic) interest of said organi
zation or Party.
Moved, seconded, and vote carried, that
the proceedings of this meeting be pub
lished in the county papers.
C. C. BURKHOLDEB, Sec'y.
RKKDSVILJ.E, April 25, 1567.
A second meeting of the Workingmen
was called for, and brought to order by
electing R. F. Cupples, chairman, and 1).
H. Bell, secretary. The following pre
amble and resolutions were submitted for
approval, and unanimously adopted.
Whereas, In our opinion, both the ex
isting political parties have become so
corrupt that they have lost sight of the
interests of the great mass of the people,
that the design of the government has
been egregiously perverted, and that the
exingency of the times demand that an
effort should be put forth to effect a change
in the political aspect of the government,
and we believe the power remains alone
with the working uiass of the people to
effect the desired reformation,
Resolved, That we, the Workingmen
of Mittiin county, will bend all our ener
gies, and use all honorable means to effect
the change contemplated.
Resolved, That we believe the time has
arrived that the working class should
select men from their own ranks to repre
sent them in our State and National coun
cils to the end, that we, the laboring men,
may have equal legislation with the capi
talist.
Resolved, That we will sacrifice all po
| litical predilections in order to carry into
j effect the foregoing resolutions.

DIED
In this place, after a lingering illness,
JOSEPH ALLOW AY, aged 26 years, a mem
ber of the 118 th Pa. Vol., known as the
Corn Exchange Regiment, and formerly
of New Jersey. This young man came
hero last fall, and was employed by C. M.
Skull, but soon fell sick. He was taken
to Mr. Shull's home, where lie was treated
with unusual care, and in Miss S —h
M e met with a "good Samaritan"
whose motherly care of a stranger de
serves far more commendation than is
here bestowed. Others too lent their
kindly aid, and did all they could to alle
viate "his sufferings, thus proving that
Christian virtues still occasionally shine
forth bright as one of those glorious stars
adorning the dome of heaven.
"Thou art gone to rest;
Thy toils and cares :ire o'er;
And sorrow, pain.and suffering, now
Shall ne'er distress thee more.'
