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.
Ho converts tbe rudest and most un*haj>ely
leather into beautiful-fitting, serviceable
coverings for the feet. Ladies, men and
children should give bim a call.
—The time is drawing near when the
Bellefonte Fencible* < National Guard)
must depart for their annual encamj>ment
at Braddock'a. Captain Mullen has issued
the following order which will bo of inter
est to the members of the company :
(irneral (trder—
No. 1. 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.
Among them are: Mrs. W. P. Wilson
and Mist Blanche Hayes, Mr*. Gen. Beaver
and Mtsa Mollie Nesbitt, Mr. Isaac Mitch
ell and family, Miss Co be I and Misa
Thomas. They all report a delightful
time. 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

| —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

—We have information, iub rona, of a
marriage proposal in liellcfonlo which WM
a decided innovation upon all the recog
nised rules which have been [>opular)y
supposed to govern this delicate and solemn
ceremonial. We have been wont to think
of this matter with alt the amorous aeccs
sories of mellowed light, perfumed flowers
and witching solitude; but our hero,
goes the story, proposed Us his lady In the
cold, calculating light of day and in the
hearing of all the inmates of one of our
large hotels. If this thing keeps on there
is no telling where it will stop. We are
not informed what answer the fair damsel
returned to this novel oiler of a big heart
and larger band. We bope it was favora
ble. Much daring deserves reward.
—'l ho ltellefonte llrpubhcan is doing
itself no credit by the petty, personal war
it is waging on Mr. James Hchoflcld. It
appears that this gentleman's exhibition
of political independence ban brought down
upon hlrn the Ire of our contemporary. It
is a pitiable business for a newspaper to
engage in firing pnper bullets at a man
because he sees fit to disagree with tic;
sapient editor and his lurge and grown.;,
staff of gratuitous assistant*. .Mr. Scho

send in a right royal Celtic ballot for
