LOCAL AFFAIRS.
Accidents. —Mr. Wm. Barr of Kishaeo
quilias Valley made a narrow escape or
Thursday last, at the crossing of the Mif
flin and Centre Railroad at Rind's mill.
He had been to town with a spring wag
on, on which a stove and some other arti
cles had been loudened, and supposing he
could make the crossing before the cars
reached it lie diove on, but from some
cause his horses almost stopped on the
track, and the locomotive struck tlie wag
jn, breaking it and most of its contents,
throwing out Mr. B. with considerable
violence. He was cut about the head and
face, but escaped with much less injury
than was at first feared. It cannot be too
strongly impressed upon all persons driv
ing horses that it is extremely dangerous
to attempt crossing a railroad track when
a train is under full headway, even if it
should he four or five hundred yards off'.
This can be best demonstrated by remern-
Ixring that a train running 20 miles an
hour makes a mile in three minutes, half
a mile in a minute and a half, or four hun
dred and forty yards in forty-five seconds.
Robbery.— The auction house of G. W.
Albright, in West Market street, was en
tered on Wednesday night last hy boring
the shutter and then pushing back the
bolt, and two revolvers taken out of a case.
An iiich-and-three-quarter auger was
used. The one was a Colt Revolver
which had been used, the other a new
large Remington Navy Revolver, shoot
ing 30 to the pound, with a double mould,
one easting a round the other a Minnie
ball. A dozen of fixed ammunition and
a box of eaps for this pistol were also ta
ken. As there is probably 110 other Rem
ington Navy Revolver of this size in this
part of the State, we request information,
should such a pistol have been or be offer
ed for saie or seen in the hands of any
person, be- given to the editors of the Ga
zette, who are the owners of said pistol.
The Colt Revolver was the property of J.
Stewart McEweu.
Church Improvement. —The official board
of the Methodist Episcopal Church of this
place we learn last week determined to
alter the present building according to a
plan submitted by Rev. Mr. Monroe, by
which it will be extended 23 feet, the front
improved, and the interior remodeled, so
that there will he an excellent Sabbath
S.-hool 100 m, a line lecture room, and an
audience chamber on the second floor am
ply sufficient to accommodate the congre
gation and general visitors. Class rooms
are also to he added. The cost will prob
ably be from s4oootos6ooo. An improve
ment has long been contemplated, anc
we are pleased to note that there is at la.-l
spirit and enterprise enough to undertake
it.
>t. Marks Episcopal Church has its new
stone front up, and the carpenter's are
now busy at the bell tower and interior.
Fish Dams. —We notice several Fish
Pains in the river between this place and
Newport which, according to the decis
ion of Judge Pearson ot Harrisburg are
illegal and the owners liuhle to prosecu
tion. There are some in this county,
.some in Juniata, and others in Perry; and
while but little objection can be urged
against catching eels in the full by this
means, yet it is a well known fact thai
large numbers of young shad and salmon,
as well as other fish, are annually de
stroyed in such basket". It is all idle to
talk about restocking our rivers with fish
unless means are taken to preserve them,
and we hope the Court at its next term
will specially instruct constables, super
visor-,, Ac., as to their duty in such cases.
The fifth meeting of the County
Musical Association held at Strode's
church, on Thursday last, was not so well
attended in the afternoon, but the evening
—ion gathered quite a number from tin
-urrounding neighborhood. The musk
Was not so good, there being few singers
p • -! nt. a number were there from
this place, some of whom met with the
unfortunate circumstance known as a
"break-down," but as none were hurt, all
enjoyed it. The next session will be held
at Newton Hamilton, 011 the 2d Thursday
of November.
A. L. S.—The Re-opening of the Ap
pren-jct-s' Literary Society will take place
011 Saturday evening next, in their Hall.
1 he exercises will consist of Essays, Pec
limatioiis. Readings, Ac., and music hy
the Mendelssohn Association. We hope
our citizens will show their appreciation
of this organization by a good turn out
on this occasion; and that our young men
will this winter avail themselves of the
advantage's resulting from an attendance
upon it" regular sessions. It is certainly
pnverful lever for good, if properly laid
bold of. All arc invited to IK- present.-
A Freak of Insanity. —The Miffiintown
bentiiud gives the follow'ng particulars of
a:i attempt at suicide at Manayunk bridge:
On si tt up lay evening, 25th September.
a> the Cincinnati Express train east pass
the Manayunk bridge, an unknown
") in was observed divesting himself of
hat, watch, Ac., and placing iiis hands on
"• 1.i.-ks of two seats, sprang out of the
Wiii-iow, feet foremost, taking the sash
% itb him. The train was immediately
k '"l|k--1. and on going back, he was found
•aiking toward the jiersons in search of
i'u. As soon as he saw them he feli up
' 1 bis knees and commenced praying for
l! '" r cy. ]£e W as placed on the train and
r "iL-bt to the Patterson House, and his
'• "in properly eared for. He has a cut
' 'he chin and is considerably bruised,
- 't is a miracle that he was not instunt
-1 ilied. He is a Frenchman by birth,
a Was on his way from the west to Phil
a '"lpliia. He had been lal>oring under
• l " attack of delirium tremens, and no
'-oubt jumped from the train to escajie tlie
1"' --Uicc of those dreadful phantoms seen
by persons in his situation. This is an
other warning to those who make too fre
quent use of intoxicating drinks.
MeKee's tannery on Water street we

Among the first "democratic" voters

that Third street was not wide enough for

It is said the engineers of the Middle

On Monday iast, I). Grove received a

An attempt was made last week to set
fire to Hamaker A Montgomery's carriage i
manufactory, by placing combustible mat-:
ter among the paints and oil and pouring |
coal oil on the floor. The latter was set 1
on fire, but fortunately did no injury be
yond burning a hole in the floor.
After threatening rain for several days
the clouds finally yielded a copious show
er oil Friday night and Saturday morning,
which gave the recently sown grain a fine
start. 1 lie weather, however, is again j
pleasant, with cool, frosty mornings.
Professor Clark opened his Singing;
School on Saturday evening at the Town ;
Hall with a fair attendance of principally
young ladies. Such schools ought to be
encouraged by parents, for while they are;
agreeable associations and singing a use
ful accomplishment, they have a tenden-1
oy to improve both the minds and morals'
of the young.
The tracklayers are at work between j
Reedsville and Milroy, and the cars will
run to the latter place on or before the Ist!
of November. This is another step to-1
ward the Snow Shoe region, and if Cen- i
tre county now wakes up, a few years j
will give its eoal, lumber, iron ami pro- j
duce generally the nearest and most di- 1
rect route to market.
The l r . S. officials have taken possession
of what is known as the Locke's Mills
distillery, with all tlie real estate pertain
ing thereto, on the charge of having de
frauded the government of revenue tax to
a large amount. There is something in
explicable in tliis transaction which we
must confess wc are unable to understand,
as it is well known that the owners have
been at different times during the past six
months borrowers of considerable sums
of money, and even hypothecated whis
ky. It may be unraveled according to
law, but unless the officers know a good
deal more than outsiders, appearances are
not in their favor.

CATTLE FOR THE EASTERN MARKETS.
FORT RILEY, Kansas, Oct. 5. —A dis
patch from Junction City states that thir
ty thousand head of cattle from Texas
and New .Mexico, bound for the E:istern
markets, are now at Abclene, ou the Union
Pacific Railway, Eastern Division, 105
miles from the State line. Buyers are
reported scarce. This trade in Mexican
cattle towards the United Btates is a new
thing on this railroad, and the suddenness
with which it has sprung up into such
magnitude is remarkable. "
THE ELECTION.
Tlie State in Doulit.
Bribery, Whisky, and the Pa. B. R. Again
Triumphant in this County.
The election yesterday was a repetition I
of tiie disgraceful scenes of last year.—
Bribery again stalked abroad undisguised,
and things in the shape of men fawned!
around the bankers like a set of hounds i
with labeled collars. The Pennsylvania
Railroad in Granville townsliipalsocamei
to the rescue, and in a district where the'
resident vote could not command 40, gave
100! We would by all means recommend
the Directors of that road to amend their
resolution respecting interference in elec
tions, so as to read that republicans arc
not to interfere under pain of dismissal,'
but give all good copperheads an indis-!
putable right to colonize Mitliin anil Ju- i
niatu counties whenever they see proper. 1
The greatest effort was made in favor of'
Mclntyre, the railroad candidate, and
was openly offered to vote for him alone!
A special effort was also made against
Col. llpbison and Capt. Wilson, two sol
diers on our ticket, they having been
guilty of helping to whip the rebels—a i
sin copperheads never forgive. And all j
this pandering to depravity and self-abase
ment, subjecting our elections to the pow
er of bribery, corruption, ignorance and i
drunken stupidity, is called DEMOCRACY. !

I TI
4 LL the important Stove Improvements
. TJL of the age can now be found at the Big
| Goffee Dot Sign. By looking o*i r our list
you can see that we have all the latest and
| choicest stoves of the day.
The latest and first Cookstove re bring to
your notice is
RBOUIAEC?.,
Extra heavy a- d large. The oven in num*
■ her 7 is as large as number 8 of any other
i stove, and it has no projection or low placo
in tbo front part of oven: it has also a retol
| ving top, by which means you can move
. your pots or boiler off or over the fire with
tout lilting them, and thereby prevent the es
cape of either gas or smoke in tl.e room.
|
But the greatest stove of the day, on acs
j count of the many "conveniences, is James
! Spear's
I
ANTI-DF3T, GAS BURNER *
Cooking Stove,
; which is preferred even before a range. You
| can have, by the hot water attachment, hot
laud cold water up stairs; it also separates the
! unhurnt coal from the ashes without dust or
I lirt in the house; the centre plates are all
double, with the air passing through them; it
is a perfect baker, and a tip-top stove in eve
ry respect.
Our next Cook is the REGULATOR,
plain top, with feeder front. 'lhis is the
same as the other except the top.
And last, but not least, is the
COMBINATION COOK,
a stove that we have been selling fir six
years, and the sale of thein is increasing ev
! ery day. 'Tis a stove we put against the
! world for baking purposes; it takes but little
j fuel, and is a plain, substantial stove,
i m FAiiiuii
! Aimost everybody has heard of Jas. Spear's
ANTI-DUST, GAS-BURNER, PAR
LOR STOVES.
; For beauty, economy, and durability they
stand second to none, and for cleanliness
there is none to equal them; they only need
to be seen to be appreciated We have also
Spear's Anti Du6t I'urlor EGG STOVE, just
' new, and pretty.
And we have the stoves that we suppose
; are going to set the world on fire, —the

AND TIIE ORIENTAL IIEATER
'j
Our stock of STORE and OFFICE STOVES
, is complete—new pattern, wood, etc., —and
. i in order that everybody can have a stove, we
are now manufacturing out of genuine Rus
"jsia Iron a new PARLOR GAS BURNER
stove, called the BON TON; and to nil those
| who wish to heat an upper and lower room
with one stove, I would say, call turd see J.
| IRVIN WALLIS'S
Parlor Heater.
I have now improved and completed my
Parlor Heater. With this stove you can per
! fectlv heat up and down stairs at will, and
j their cost is not one third tbat of any other
, Heater. There is no mistake about it. and 1
| ask no pay until you are perfectly satisfied it
' j will do as represented. And since lam de
i termined to render satisfaction to all my cus
| turners, I have brought from Philadelphia
j one of the best mechanics ir tke country, and
we intend this season to give special atten
tion to furnishing off and potting up all our
j stoves. We have been compelled, in order to
supply the increasing demand for our stoves,
I to Jea.se another building, on Brown street,
j in which we have a large- stock of STOVES.
P. S. We will receive in a few days a
j large stock of

Experience Proves thor 3 are only
Two VALUABLE
Machine Stitches:
'/us mm 4 mm
ELASTIC STITCH
AND THE
SHUTTLE OR LOCK STITCII,
THE Grovr 4 Baker Elastic-fltiteh Sewing Machines
are superior to all others for the follow mg reasons:
1. They sew tlireet from the spool-, and require no
rewinding of thread.
2. They are more easily understood and used, and
less liable to derangement than other machines.
3. They are capable of executing perfectly- w about
change of adjustment, a much greater variety oi work
i than other machines.
4. The stitch made tiy these machines is much more
fmn, elastic, and durable, especially upon articles
I which require to he washed and ironed, than any
. other stitoh.
5. This stitch, owing to the manner in which the
under thread is inwrought, is much the most plump
and lieautitu! in use, and retains this plumpness sad
beauty even upon articles frequent.y wu-hed '-"4
ironed until they are worn out.
6. The structure of the seam is such that though it
be cut or broken at intervals of only a fv.v stitches it
will neither open, run, or ravel, but remains firm and
durable.
7. I lllike other machines, these fasten bothcudsof
the scam bv their own operation.
8. With these machines, nbit silk is used upon the
right or face side of the eam, eotton may la* used
upon ihe other side without lessening ih- strength or
durability of the seam. This can be done on another
machine, and is a great sating upon all articles stitch
ed or made up with silk.
9. These machines, in addition to their superior
merits as instruments for sewing, by a change of ad
justment. easily learned and practiced, execute tho
most beautiful and perinaueut embroidery and orna
mental work.
