Bellefonte, Pa., Feb. 1. Chairman.
Local Department.
—Who ever experienced a finer day
than last Tuesday?
—Butter continues to be quoted at 25
cents per pound.
—Clothing is an indispensable article—
buy it at the Philadelphia Branch.
—Reynolds' liall will be crowded next
Saturday night to see the Berger Family.
—A new stable is in erection
on the rear of Mrs. Sussman's High street
property.
—lf you study about the lives of depart
ed heroes to-day, let it be of St. Patrick,
Ireland's canonized countryman.
—Monday next will bring to us the ver
nal equinox, after which the spring season
may be said to have fairly begun.
—This evening Colonel John W. Forney
will lecture in the Altooria Opera House
under the auspices of the Land League.
—An entertainment was given by the
M E. Sunday-school, of Milesburg, last
Saturday, by which about $22 was realized.
—At least one-half of Grant's fame is
duo to the fact that he smokes the same
brand of cigars as that sold by Harry
Green.
—Men and boys have reason to rejoice :
because they can dress economically and
respectably by buying clothing at the
Philadelphia Branch.
—lf you see a cigar that the side of a
house could fall on and not knock the nice
white ashes off, you may bo sure it was
bought at Wilson's. Hrockerhoff House
Block.
—The faces of the employes of the B. E.
\ . Railroad were illumined with a radiant
smile last Saturday. This was occasioned
by the monthly visit of the pay train of
that corporation.
—The meeting oi the Temperance Union
of Bellefonte, in the Y. M. C. A. room
this evening, should attract a large audi
ence. I). M. Keller, Esq., is chairman of
the committee on programme, and always
arranges an interesting outline of exercises
to occupy every moment of the time.
—"Oh, it is only a cold." H<>w often
we hear this remark, and yet there are
thousands all through the country in the
last stages of consumption, who, had they
taken heed to the "cold ' might havo been
in rigorous health to-day. There is no
better preparation for a cold or cough than
"Green's Syrup of Tar, Honey and Blood
root."
—Mrs. Gartield, wife of the President, is
said to be a lady who is much more inter
ested in domestic matters than in social
life, and it is now in order for her to buy
a large invoice of fresh groceries direct
from the store of Sechler A Co., to replen
ish the pantry of the White House. Sech
ler keeps the best groceries in the United
States and has the largest number of cus
tomers.
Before another issue of the l)zwo< HAT
the days will be growing longer than the
nights and humanity will indulgo in less
sleep than was the case during the winter
months. Thff longer people are awake the
more they must eat, and it is a comforting
thing to know that the very best place to
buy groceriea is at the store of Sechler A
Co. This is a fact which admits of no
question.
—lt Is said that the divine Sarah Bern
hardt is to exhibit at Bradford, Pa., tome
night in the near future. Well, the peo
ple of Bradford spend money freely, which
is an inducement to Sarah, but they do not
have a grocery store equal to that of 8. A.
Brew A Son, In this place. In that respect
Bellefonta stands without a peer, as all who
have ever bought groceries of 8. A. Brow
A Son can teatify.
—We observe that tbo following are
among the ministerial appointments of
local interest made by the Central Penn
sylvania Conference of the Evangelical
church, which assembled at Lock Ha
ven last week : Nilteny Hall, Revs. J,
A. Irvin and A. W. Hwengel ; Sugar
Valley, Rev. J. O. M. Swcngol; Centre
Hali, Rev. O. Hunter; Milesburg, Rev.
J. J. Lohr. The Presiding Elder is Rev.
A. L. Reeser.
PERSONAL* OF IMPORTANCE.—Mr. Jus.
► Williams, who is connected with tho
Thompsons' store at Lomont, Is now at
homo on a visit.
—Wo regret to hear that Mr. John Linn
is again quite ill. Ho had so far recovered
1 as to he able to rise from bed and dress
himself, but on Monday ho fainted, and
is now very feeble.
—Among the many handsome nnd agree
able persons who tarried in town during
last Sunday, Prof, J. M. Duncan, of Men
toursvillo, and Mr. Willis Fleming, of
Altoona, were especially prominent. The
latter expects to reside permanently in
In Bellefonte.
Mr. Willintn Kurtz, tho youthful and
agreeable editor of tho Centre Hall lie
/Hirtrr, bestowed his presence on his friends
in this place last Monday.
Mr. Moran lliblor, of Bradford, is in
town, waiting at the bedsido of his brother
John, who is, we regret to say, now lying
at the point of death from tho ravages of
consumption.
—Miss Nesbitt, one of tho ablest of the
lady instructors who ever taught in the
public schools of Bellefonte, has been com
pelled by illness to withdraw from the
position which she has held so long and
creditably. Her placo will bo filled by
Miss Jennie Gohret, who is a ladv of
varied accomplishments and has had con
siderable ex|>erieneo as a teacher in some
of the best schools of tho country.
Mr. H. W. Foutz, formerly of this
place and n>w of Curweniville, spent Sat
urday last in town. While making his
homo in Bellefonte he was the proprietor
of a planing mill and is pursuing tho same
business in Curwensville, where ho is meet
ing with the success which ho so largely
deserves.
Mr. W. Huev, formerly of State
College, has removed to Warren, Warren
county, whero he will take charge of tho
farm connected with the asylum at that
place.
j
—Wo learn from the Lock Haven Daily
Journal that our valued friend, ex-Sheriff
Pie, of Osceola, will remove to the former
placo on tho first of April. Mr. Pio is ex
tensively engaged in the lumber business
and is preparing to build a circular mill,
'.Hi by 62, between Wilcox and Kane He
finds it inoro convenient to make Lock
Haven his headquarters in the future, and
that city is to be envied for receiving such
a valuable accession to its population,
—Mr. E<l. Muir, formerly a clerk in
/•••Her s drug store, of this place, i< now a
full-fledged pharmueit. He graduated yes
terday from the Philadelphia College of
! Pharmacy, and is prepared to enter upon
j the duties of his profession.
—•I 11. \ oeburg, Esq., who was former
ly a resident of this place ar.d at present is
living in Tyrone, i* announced to deliver
lecture in the Court House <.f this pi ncn
lon Tuesday evening, tho 22d instant. His
subject is "Poetry, Illustrated by Recita
tions of Poetical Selections.'' As Mr. Vu
burg is a veteran poet and a gentleman of
considerable literary culture, bis lecture
will doubtless afford much instruction and
be worthy of a large and critical audience.
Mrs. John Ardoll is at present enter
taining her cousin, Miss Dunn, one of the
attractive young iado-* of tho Empire
Stale.
Mi-s Maggie Snowden, one of Belle
' fonte's accomplished musicians, is enter
taining her sister, who is a very pleasant
, and agreeable young lady.
Mr. John Blanchard, of Princeton
] College, son of our townsman Evan
Blanchard, Esq., has been spending a short
time at his home in this place, but will re
turn to his school duties in a few day..
Mr. \\ . R. Teller, the popular pro
prietor of the Brockerhoff House, has been
offered the management of a hotel in Al
toona, which it is probable he will accept.
Should he conclude to do so the people of
that Railroad City can congratulate them
selves upon securing such a gentlemanly
and agreeable host to entertain travelers
in that direction. Since he has determin
ed to leave Bellefonte, we are glad that he
will not go any further than the neighbor
ing city of Altoona.
Mr. George P. Bible is delighting
large audience* throughout the county with
his select readings. At Zlon on Saturday
evening and at Milesburg on Tuesday eve
ning, his entertainments were crowned
with great success.
—The latest and best evidence we have
heard to prove that the Phllipsburg Jour,
nal is more prosperous than it* contempo
raries it tbo fact that Mr Webster T. Bair,
an attache of that office, was married, the
other day, to Mis. Annie M. Elliott, of
Shirloysburg. It i. not often a printer
can Bair tho expense of committing mat
rimony.
Every citizen of our county should
read tbe interesting article on the 4th page
of the DEMOCRAT entitled "Old-time No.
tables." It was written by Hon. John
Blair Linn, of this borough. The subject
of the sketch, Andrew Gregg, was a very
prominent man In the council* of the
State and Nation in the days of "auld
lang syne."
—lf you want to enjoy yourself for
thirty minutee, buy your cigar* at Wil
son's, in the Brockerhoff House Block.
—Why buy a poor cigar when the very
beet may be obtained at the same price at
Oreen's drug store ?
—The Philadelphia Branch has a large
stock of clothing suitable for this season of
the year.

i I DEATH RECORD—Mr. Amos Alexander,
who died it Millheim on tho first day of
! this month, was a life-long resident of
, I Centre county. His father, Jame* Alexsn
, I der, witit bis uncle Francis, moved to this
county from Maryland in 17''5, locating on
f I what wa then known as the William l'ot
: ter farm, about a mile and a-half cast of
Centre Hall. There they continued to re.
side for fifty-two successive years. Amos
was born on the 2<l day of August, IHII,
and wa married to F.li/.abelh Keller,
, i daughter of Christian Keller, also of this
: county, on the 2>th of February, 1
| During the latter part of bis life he resided
in the vicinity of Millheim. II purchased
■ ! the Judge Kryder farm near that place,
residing there for several years, and after
wards bought the John F> ster property in
Millheim, where be lived, engaging in the
! mercantile business. From IWII to IW,
• ho fille.l the office of County Commissioner.
In his d'-alh the community lost a very
worthy member and useful citizen.
—The Watchman says .tame* Wallace
Duncan, Kq., formerly of Hellefonte,
died in Ixsuisiana recently. Mr. Duncan
was a lawyer by profession, the son of
James Duncan, formerly of Hpring Mills,
and the grandson of Thomas Duncan. Sr.,
formerly of Millheim. He was a broth
er of the late John 1. Duncan.
Mr*. Harry Teats it again mourning
the death of one of her siters, Mr*. Em
ms Warfel, of East Oermanlown, Indiana,
who died on Wednesday, the 2d instant,
only six months intervening between that
event and the death of another sister who
resided at the same place and which was
announced in the DEMOCRAT at the time.
We commiserate with her in the sad be
reavement.
Dr. John Harris, I'nited SUtes Con
sul at Venice, Italy, died at that place af
ter a lingering illness on the 21st of Feb
ruary, aged HH years, 1 month and 2#
data. His wife is also said to be in feeble
health. Hoth Dr. Harris and his wife
have an extensive relationship with many
families in this place and in Huntingdon,
to whom the sad tidings will be a source o,
profound sorrow. Of the many eminent
virtues and talents of the deceased 100
much cannot be said. He had Ailed the
position of U. 8. Consul to'luly during a
period of almost twelve years.
Mr. Joseph Cannon, of Port Matilda,
died on Monday morning last. He was 76
years of age and an exceliont citizen. The
community in which be lived and the
Presbyterian churcb, of which bo was a
member, have lost a valuable and faithful
friend.
—Mr. John Hour beck is bringing an un
usually large number of attractive shows
to our town this season. On Halurday
evening next the Berger family will give
i one of their line entertainments, which al
ways draw crowded houses, and on Wed
nesday evening of next week Howorths'
Grand Hibernica, a comedy company of
groat merit, will occupy the boards. Both
entertainments will be given at Reynolds'
Hall.
—W r hy do not some of the lady teachers
offer themselves as candidates for the office
of county superintendent 7 There are at
i least a half doaen who are the equals in
r intelligence of any gentleman who has yet
been mentioned for tbe position.
I UNDER THE CONTROL or THE PERK-
I HTI.VAKIA RAII.ROAD.—The wonderful in-
P croaso In power and Influence of tho Penn
sylvania Railroad Company is causing the
i unflaging energy of that mammoth corpo
ration to be felt In every part of the Htato
and Nation. The final arrangements re
lating to the transfer ol tho Hellefonte
A Hnow Khoo railroad to the former cor
poration were to have been completed
during the early part of this week, arid by
this time, doubtless, the property of the
H & S. S. company is in the possession of
it* new owners. This but marks a slight
advance in its already extended power.
Several otfii in Is of the I'ennsyl vania rail
road have been spending some time in ibis
place inspecting their new purchase and
attending to the details of the transfer.
While tho rnilroad properly of tho B. &
S. S. company is now owned by the Penn
sylvania railroad, the coal mines at Hnow
Shoe will continue to be operated under a
separate and independent company. This
change will insure a great increase of busi
ness over the railroad and throw more
capital into the management of the mines.
Of course, tho business of the railroad and
the mines will receive a new impetus,
which will have a wonderful effect on
Hnow Shoe and will be felt to some extent
in Hellefonte.
FLOWERS OK SI'HIKO.—Tbe mild weath
er of early spring and the powerful rays of
the sun together conduce to revive the
house plants which, during the winter
months, were kept alivo with difficulty.
Scarlet and white lilies unfold their grace
ful petal* in many windows, while more
modest, but equally beautiful blossoms,
appear to be quite profuse. Conservatories
connected with the residences of On. Jas.
A. Heaver and Mr. Ahram Valentine pre
sent an attractive picture. Lilies are
visible in the windows of ex-Governor
Curtin's residence, and al<> those of Mr.
Thomas Keynold* and Dr. K. \V. Hale.
Fine and varied collections of flowers dec
orate the windows of Dr. Dorworth's resi
| dence , on High street, Mr Montgomery s,
on Allegheny street, and Mr Harry Teats',
on Howard. There are, doublle-s, many
others ol equal beauty in other portions of
: the town, and those who have them are
well repaid for the trouble require! in
j their cultivation.

A GOOD Hot TW IKK The good house
wife, when she is giving her house its
spring renovating, should tx-ar in mind
that the dear inmate* of her house are
more precious than many houses, and that
i their systems need cleansing by purifying
the blood, regulating the stomach and
bowels to prevent and cure the diseases
arising from spring malaria and miasma,
and she must know that there is nothing

HARD COR- ERT.—The Cornet
Band will give nneof their very entertain
ing and amusing concerts in the school
house at Shingletown, Harris township, to
morrow, t Friday I evening. The band will
be assisted by Prof. Williams. As a mus
ical organization the I*emonl Rand has
no superior in the county, and those who
shall attend this concert will be excellently
entertained. We hope to hear that the
attendance was large.
—lt is unofficially announced that the
concert by Miss Ohnmacht and her pupils,
which has for some lime been the engross
ing theme of conversation in the musical
circle* of this borough, will be given dur
ing the last week of this month. Of
course everything in the musical line with
which Miss Ohnmacht is connected i so
superior In excellence that the confirma
tion of this announcement will be looked
for with impatience.
—The Bellefonte Jubilee Hingers were
very succeesful with their concert given in

previous occesion this spring.
Men and boys should purchase spring

AMOKU THE POET*.—At tho request of
J. U. Vosburg, Ksq., wo tako pleasure in
calling the attention of our readors to tbe
very rich literary treat which he will give
to tho people of this place j n t ho Court
1 House next Tuesday evening, tho 22d
instant. It Is a fact patent to all students
' that Mr. Vosburg is a gentleman of extra
ordinary literary culture, and a literary
taste is inherited by all the members of bis
very interesting family. W. have never
had the pleasure of perusing any of the
special contributions to poesy of which ho
t the author, but have frequently heard
them lauded as very fine productions. His
deep researches into tbo golden sea of poe
try will enable him to reclaim from its
depths some of tbo most exquisite gems
to which the jioct's lyre was ever tuned,
and will be embodied in his lecture under
tbo title, "Poetry, Illustrated by Recita
tions of Poetical Selections." Mr. Vosburg
ha* given considerable attention to the
study of elocution, and ha* bad previous
experience as a public lecturer, lie desires
to practice bis profession—the law—at
Tyrone, and the object of the present lec
ture is to provide biin with a suitable lib
rary. Wo have no doubt tbe bar of this
place, of which Mr. Vosburg was once a
member, will willingly aid him to the ex
tent of their power to make tho lecture a
success. Ihe lii kets of admission are only
' 2's cents, and there will doubtless !*• a large
attendance, as we have already beard
several persons express their intention
to be present.
"BOTH SIDES OK LIKE. '—A lecture on
the above subject will be delivered in the '
Court House, of this place, next Monday ,
evening, the 21st instant. Tbe lady who J
is to deliver tho lecture is Miss Anna M
Baker, a niece of Squire Baker, of How- .
I ard, this county. She is considered "ne of j
the best lady orators in the country and
has received tbe unqualified endorsement
of i ritics wherever she has apj-eared. Hhe
i* not a stranger to the platform, her
experience as a public lecturer having been
quite extensive and successful. Those who
attend will hear an interesting topic dis- i
. cussed in a thoroughly conscientious and
brilliant manner by one who has devoted
much thought to its consideration. The
following comments of the Clearfield He
publican are but the echo from a neighbor- I
ing contemporary of the sentiment ex- ;
pressed by the press in all parts of the
land .
The lecture of Miss Baker, entitled
"Both Hides of Life,' was delivered to a j
highly appreciative audience in the court I
"m.on Tuesday evening of last week, j
Her language was well selected and her
delivery was eloquent, graceful and pleas
ing. Hhe has none of that ' stage style
which ,s apt to overtake and cajptare the
lecturer of the p.esent day; but handled
her subject in a masterly manner. Hhe
combine* eloquence, wit and grace to a
degree •-•],),,(„ found in any one jx<rsc>n. I

platform at the present time
PUBLIC SAI.E*.—D. G. Knox, Ksq., of J
Benner township, will sell some farming j
implement* and stock at hi* residence on
Friday, the 2*>th instant. Three horses, j
• no 2-year old colt, five milk cows, three
yearling calve* and a threshing machine ,
are tbe principal item* enumerated in the
printed bills, In addition to these there
i are pigs, wagons, mowers, fanning mills, j
bay rakes, Ac. Sale to begin at 10 A. M
—On Friday, the 2-'lh instant, Mrs.
Kllen Ryman will expose for sale at the
; late residence of Mr, Jacob Ryman, de
-1 ceased, at Milesburg, some very desirable
article# of personal furniture. Twenty- j
, four yards of parlor and fifty yard# of
bedroom carpet are upon the list. There
, I is slso a cook stove, a parlor stove and that
sine 9 1JO n-<s of household convenience, a
corner cupboard, together with everything
that belongs to the furniture of a well
regulated household. The sale will begin
at one o'clot k.
—The article that appeared in the local
columns of the Watchman last week, in
relation to the appointment of a detective
for the District AtUrney'a office, we are
reliably informed is based upon an entire
misapprehension of the fact* in the matter
and does injustice to all the parlic* named
by the writer. There ha* never been a
question between the Court and the District
Attorney in regard to the appointment,
i and consequently "no difference of opin
ion." The District Attorney never made
an appointment which the Court refused to
confirm, and the Court never suggested
one which tbe District Attorney declined
to make. The simple truth ia that both
agreed in opinion, that in consequence of
our present freedom from crime, and the
consequent decline in the criminal busineas
> of our court*, such an officer as a detective,
though provided for by law, was, for the
time being at leaal, unnecessary and that U
would therefore be unadvisable to make
an appointment. This is tbe reason why
no appointment has been made and not be
cause of any disagreement about a person
to fill it.
