GORDON A LANDIH.—This firm have recently removed into tho handsome pvvi building just completed for them next to McC'att'erty's block on Bail road avenue. It is painted on the outside a light drab and brilliantly lettered in red, bluo and Mack. The llnely-Unishcd machinery with in is handsome enough to ornament a par lor and makes tho interior bright and cheerful. Tho business office, to the north of the ware room, is also a pleasant apart ment. In brief, the building without and within is as neat a* the young fellow who goes for the first time to call on his girl. They are well prepared to exhibit, and sel' at the most moderate terms, all kinds of agricultural implements, and to do all kinds of work in the machinery lino, in a neat and workmanlike manner. Then, when we consider that both the proprietors are machinists of unequalled skill, wo can unhesitatingly recommend all to call on Gordon A Landis. —There is a wonderful amount of art and skill in shoomaking. The shoe maker, does as much to aid tho understanding as a full course in a popular college. Since tho time of common sandals to tho modern period of fifty-button ladies' boots he has been an indisj>ensable portion of civiliza tion. But never since the fairy god-mother created the little glass slippers for Cin derella has such consummate art been dis played in fashioning boots and shqca for the sons and daughters of men as is now shown by Mr. T. Noll, whose place of business is in tbe little frame building south of Deschner s gun shop on High street.

The officers and men of this com pany are hereby ordered to rejiort at their armory on Thursday evening, August lit, at 8 o'clock r. a., sharp, for the purpose of making final arrangements for the annual encampment at "Camp Alexander Hayes." No. 2. It is exjiected that the uniforms, arms and equipments of the company will be distributed at this meeting. Mr. .Samuel Van Tries, of this place, was the victim of misfortune on Wednes day of last week, in tho destruction by fire of the barn located on hi* I'enns Val ley farm. It was struck by lightning and burned with all its contents, including about eight hundrrd bushels of last year's corn of a superior quality. The building was valued at about $1,200; insured for SBOO. There was also an insurance on the contents, belonging jointly to Mr. Van Tries and to tbe tenant. Mr. George Swab. —Fathers sometime* complain of the expense entailed in providing for their daughters, esjtccially because double the quantity of goods is now required to make a dress that was formerly considered nec essary. But they forget that the item of groceries is less than it used to be, and if they will patronize 8. A. Brew & Son's store their daughters will always tie smil ing, healthy and handsome, and not need so many dresses. —As is well known, Dr. Tanner began bis feast on jieach and watermelon. Had hi* fast ended at a time when these fruits could not have been obtained, he would doubtless have sent to Sechler'* grocery for the food upon which to make his first meal, as that store is recognized through out the length and breadth of the land as tho place to buy the choicest, freshest and most digestible groceries. —So many of our friends have returned from the sea shore since our last issue that we can but mention them collectively.

A few Bollefontera are still sojourn ing there, but the cool weather will soon drive them home. —Julia Derry, a respectable colored woman of this borough, died last Friday afternoon . Sho waa burled on Sunday. GRAND DEMOCRATIC MAHK MEKTINII AND POLK KAUINU AT BOALSUURU—£X- Gov. A. O. CURTIN AND SKKATOR ALEX ANDKH ADDRENI TIIK PEOPLE.—The Han cock and English men of Harris township had a grand timo at Boalaburg on Tuesday afternoon and evening. In the afternoon they raised two line polot and flung to the bree/.o a large and handsorno flag and streamer bearing the names of the Demo cratic National candidates. The crowd in tho afternoon was large und enthusiastic, and when tho flag was run up it was greeted with grout cheering. Tho jades were erected in the Diamond, und the flag of a restored Union will greet the eyes of all who travel in the direction of Harris township's thriving villago. In the even, ing the gathering throng was marched to the Acudemy building where one of the largest meetings ever held in this part of the county was organi/.ed. Many were unahlo to gain admission to tho building, stunding room being at a jiremium. Hon. W. A. Murray was called to tho chair with a suitable number of vice presidents and secretaries. Immediately after the organi/.uiion was jierfected cx-Gov. A. G. Curtin was introduced. This was the sig nal for tho wildest cheering und it was with difficulty that the Governor was enabled to proceed. His sj>eech created tho greatest enthusiasm and he was constantly interrupted by applause. This was the first apjiearance of the Governor ujion tho stump and the warmth and cordiality of his reception was highly gratifying. He will bo heard from again. Senator C. T. Alexander followed in one of bis happy, eloquent arguments, at the conclusion of which the great meeting ad journed with cheers for tho sjieakcrs and thrice three for Hancock and English. It will be a long time before the warm hearted Democrats of that section forget the grand rally of Tuesday. It was a red letter day in the annals of Boalaburg, and the result of the outpouring of the masses will bo wen in the increased Democratic majority in November. HANCOCK VETERAN BATTALION,—On Monday evening a Hancock veteran club was organised in this place under most favorable auspices. Major It. H. Forster occupied the chair and C. L. Buflington, of Milesburg, acted as secretary of tho meet ing. Comrades C. Smith, M. D. Mc- Laughlin, Joseph Fox, K. Noll and W. 11 Blair were apjKiintcd a committee on organi7.alion.

BUPMNOTON, Secretary. | —township was agitated on last Thursday evening by two political meet j ings— Republican and I>cmocratic. Tho | iicpublican forces were commanded by , Gen. James A. Beaver, and in addition to the eloquence of tho General, had the in ; spiring strains of the Pleasant Gap Cornet | Band to give animation to the occasion. The Democratic hosts, in that sturdy stronghold of the party, were under the I leadership of Mr. William Kerlin, the ; President of the Hancock and English Club, of tho township. Tho meeting was addressed in a sound and forcible manner by Mr. Kerlin, and tho Centre Hail Band furnished the music. We have heard several accounts of both meetings which conflict considerably with each other, but after summing up the net result, without resorting to the "counting out" method, as practiced in the late Alabama election which so much vexes the soul of our friend Gen. Beaver, we are reluctantly comjtelled to say that wo think the plain,'hard work ing miller is ahead of the astute lawyer politician by several well earned points' —The Hancock and English Club of Bellefonte held its usual weekly meeting on last Saturday evening. The attendance was very Urge, the club room being pack ed with enthusiastic Democrat*. Shortly after 8 o'clock ex-Gov. A. G. Curtin en tered the hall and was vociferously cheered. Adam Hoy, Esq., introduced the Governor in a few well chosen words, and as tho tall, imposing form of the great War Governor was seen close by the president's chair tho entire audience rose to their feet and cheered again and again. The Governor was in excellent spirits and delivered one of his old-time, eloquent and inspiriting speeches. He was frequently interrupted by applause, and bis closing words, in which he pledged his best efforts to the cause of Hancock and Democracy, were tbe signal for renewed cheering which lasted several minute*. The Club then adjourned to meet again next Saturday evening. —The Democracy of College township met at Lemont on Monday evening last and organised a Hancock and English Club with tbe following officers: Presi dent, James Patterson; Vice Presidents, Jonathan Kreamer and William Foster; Secretaries, Samuel Wilson and Jacob Bottorf; Treasurer, F. P. Taylor. The meeting was then addressed in an able and acceptable manner by 0. M. Bower and Geo. R. Barrett, Esq'a. Everything prom ises well for the Democratic candidates in College. STAT* FAIR AT PIIILAI>KL>'IUA.— On Monday, September Gth, the Twenty-sev enth Annual Exhibition of the Pennsylva nia State Agricultural Society will open at the Main iiullding, Centennial Grounds, Pairmount Park, Philadelphia, and con tinue eighteen days, closing on Saturday, September 26th. The last week of which jieriod, viz : from September 20th to 26th, will be devoted to the International Show of Sheep, Wool and Wool Products, for which purpose the liberal sum of SK,:iOO in cash has been appropriated. During this week, however, all other exhibits, with the exception of Horses, Cattle, Swine, and Poultry, will remain on display. Prom present indications this exhibition of the Society will be the largest, grand est, and most varied that has ever been held by any State Society, and will be second in numbers and merit only to the ever-memorable International Exhibition, held at the same place during the Centen nial year. The premium list, which can be obtained from the officers of the Society, at their office, North-west corner Tenth and Chestnut Streets, Philadelphia, is the most complete and thorough that has ever been presented by any similar organization, and offers for competition in the Live Stock Class alone the handsome sum of $2-1,-51 &. In the Hairy, Fruit, Vegetable, and Floral Departments, the further sum of sfi,ooo is added, besides a large number of elegant and valuable gold, silver, and bronze medals, whose intrinsic value will abrogate tho entire sum of more than S■IO,GOO in actual each. The display will include a large number of Imported Thoroughbred, Fine Bred, and Draught Homes ; herd* of Short Horn, Devon, Holstein, Jersey, and Guernsey Cattle j the choicest breed* of Sheep, Swine, Jttc., together with a Mechanical, Vegetable, and Manufacturing collection seldom, if ever, brought together in any community. Excellent and commodious stabling has been prepared within the building for Horse* and Horned Cattle, and a suitable space assigned on the grounds adjacent for the accommodation of Swine. The Machinery, Dairy, Fruit, Floral, and Domestic Department* are all provided under cover, and will undoubtedly prove attractive and instructive feature* of the Fair. A space hat also been assigned for the exercise and display of ail the entries in the Live Stock Classes, but no racing will be j>ermitted. Green food will be supplied all the Milch Cow* on exhibition, and hay and straw furnished all entries gratis.
