Go to Green. —The finest stock of underclothing in the town can be bought tho cheapest at Lewin's, Philadelphia Branch. —Brilliantly colored forest leave* will be scarce this fall. The dry weather dried up tho sap in the foliage before the frost had time to get its work in. —Our merchants should remember that a few dollars spent in judicious advertis ing may greatly increase their trade and, consequently, their profits. —The standard rail used by tho Penn sylvania railroad company weighs sixty seven pounds to the yard on the main line line and sixty pounds to the yard on tbo branch roads. —The very best production that can be bad from first class stock and excellent workmanship in boots and shoes, at prices no higher than common eastern trash, are now open and for sale by 8. Sc A. Loeb. —Yennor is out with a prediction that a warm wave will generally prevail this winter, and he likewise prophesied four or five months ago that the coming December would be the warmest ever known in this country. —Call and examine the stock of ranges and cook stoves at Wilson, McFarlane & Co's ; also their lino of single and double heaters. They have for sale the Welcome Home double heater, which has been thoroughly and satisfactorily tested in this community. —Many persons iron towels, fold them and place them away before they aro dry. This is an error, and sometimes leads to re sults not expected. In this condition there U a mould which thus forms upon them, one-variety of which causes a skin disease known as ringworm. —An enterprising Altoona paper speaks of the new building of tho Centre County Banking Company here as being "nearly completed." The Altoona paper is entirely too rapid in it* conclusions, as the proposed building is not yet "nearly completed"— sot by a Dern-ed sight! —An exchange says that the soot falling on the carpet from open chimneys or from carelessly handled stovepipe* if covered thickly with salt can be brushed up with out damage to the carpet. As the season for putting up stoves has come the above may be of profit to housewives. —Mr. James A. Keller, secretary of Po mona Grange, requests u* to announce that • meeting of that organisation will be beld at Centre Halt on Thursday, Nov. 10, when and where everybody interested in. the affairs for the conduct of which the grange was organised can attend. —Traveling men, especially those whose route* lie through our Southern States, should always provide themselves with Green's No. 1 and 2 Liver Pills if they would keep clear of all malarial disease*. They are without exception the best family medicine ever offered to the public. —lt is not going to be very expensive to dress well Ibis winter. Ladies can no longer put twenty-five or thirty yards of •ilk into a dress, for they are to be very plain, mostly embroidered with chenille or beads, and must clear the ground several inches, according to the fool of the wearer. —lf the charges of "Horatio" against John I. Rankin, one of the Republican candidates for County Commissioner—ap pearing in our morning contemporary last Monday—are true there is certainly a foul weather look in the candidate's political atmosphere. "Horatio" predicts that Mr Rankin, If his party does what it should do, will not receive one hundred Republi can votes. —Our morning contemporary would knee the people believe thet by visiting the performance of Helen Potter's Pleiades they will enjoy n rare drametic entertain ment. The company gives nothing of the sort; It is, in feet, simply a refined variety •how, and, according to the statement of a Bellefonte gentleman who saw the Pleiades In Philadelphia last week, the Swedish la dies' quartette, advertised as a special at traction, was not with the company at all —at least be did not see or hear those I 'sweet singers." —Mr. A. A. Heuke, connected with the Fidelity Ufa insurance company of Phila delphia—an unusually inexpensive and eminently reliable organisation—was in town last week looking after the interests of his company with the idea of establisb lUhir.g an agency here. He is this week In Lock Haven and will spend next week In Bellefonte, when it is probsblh definite steps will be taken In regard to the agen cy. Hon. John B, Linn, of this piece, and General Jeaee Merrill, of Lock Haven, are Comprised In the membership of the Board of Local Trustees, which Is of itself a re commendation, —The little 3-year-old daughter of John Dunkelbarger, living at Plsasant Gap, while pitying the other day placed a grain of corn in hor mouth. Somehow it got into her throat, where it stuck, and before a physician could bo summoned the little jriri wii strangled to death. The parent' wero particularly affected by their unu'ual and peculiar bereavement. I*. B.—Since tho foregoing was written it ha* been learned that Mr. Dunkelbarger roasted ome corn for her children on Thursday afternoon, and tho child, whole name was Lucy, waa given a portion. Soon after be began vomiting violently and * thought to bo choking to death. The mother suc ceeded, a* *ho believed, in removing tho obstruction, but tho relief was only tempo rary. The child showed no symptoms of distress during the night, slept soundly and ate a hearty breakfast. Soon after vomit ing and coughing returned, and the spasms were so violent that the little girl died in a very short time. —Wo nro always happy to receive art works and appreciate a line picture wheth er it bo in oil or on steel. Hut the speci men sent us yesterday of what was no doubt a superior work on steel of tho engraver's art arrived in such a horribly dilapidated condition that no appreciative panegyric could in justice bo pronouncod_ Tho picture, which was doubtless of a very pretty subject—judging frotn the ragged portion received here—arrived with the wooden roller broken in two and but half tho engraving clinging to it. Wo are of course much obliged to tbo Messrs. Peter son, tho Philadelphia magazine publishers and booksellers, for their intended courte sy, but if this is indicative of the fate of succeeding works of art to our address through the mail we'd prefer to have them sent by freight. —The boy orator, Kalph Bingham, give# universal satisfaction. Bead these te-timo nials: New York (Upper, March 1, 1879: "Ilis versatility, memory and power of imitation would be remarkable in any one, arid it is truly wonderful that a lad of bis years should display talents and abilities that many a professional might well be proud of. If thero ever was a prodigy he certainly is one." Baltimore American : "Another century will probably go by be fore such another boy is likely to appear on earth." Washington Republican : "His genius is wonderful, and he will doubtless receive ovation* wherever ho goes." You will shortly be complied to buy your winter clothing. Before deciding on what you will buy see what the celebrated Rochester manufacturers, Messrs. .Stein, Adler & Co., have turned out this season, equal in fit, workmanship and trimmings to any custom made g laid of the boy orator, Ralph Bingham, by tho New York 7Vi bunt.- "A youth of only 8 yari, ha ilandi to-day among tho flnwl elocutionists In tho land, and hia wonderful delivery—clear, dlitinct and forcible—ha won for bint a reputation to be envied by all." You can hear him at the Court Houie on Tueaday evening nest. —Hecbler, the great Bub Houie grocer, la actually beginning to look a though be were on hia "lat toga" owing to the tre mendous ruah of business that keep* him and hia assistants buiy night and day and all the year round. It la to be hoped that Bechler will be preserved to aerve custom ers for a thousand years yet. —lt la impassible for a woman after a faithful course of treatment with Lydia E. Pinkbam'a Vegetable Compound to con tinue to suffer with a weakness of the ute rus. Inclose a stamp to Mr*. Lydia R- Pinkbam, 28# Western avenue, Lynn, Maaa., for ber pamphlets. —Lyon & Co. bave tbe beat medium weight farmers' dress boot, guaranteed; also nice light kip, heavy and light calf boots, heavy driving boots, lumberman's boots, with strap and buckles around top of leg. —ln addition to your county paper, which every cltiaen should take, you need a good city weekly. The Cincinnati Weekly Timet will cost you but one dollar a year, ■ —The most complete stock of boots and •hoes, the very cheapest and the very best ever offered, at Lyon A Co.'a. —Harry Green'a cigars still sustain their remarkable reputation. Buy no other. MORE AIIOUT THK NEW NITTAHY VAL LEY- RAILROAD.— The new Nittany Val ley railroad, to which alluiiun waa made last wook, la a fixed fact, a* a chatter waa granted on Tueaday laal and waa brought to Bellefonte by Mr. Adain Hoy. The road ia to extend a dlatanco of a little more thanithree tnilea from a point near (telle (onto to the Annealy ore bank, and privi leges to build varioua branchea to meet the wanla of the company are conceded. The capital atock ia S26,UCO, which ia expected aoon to be increaaed, and officers are a* followa: Preaident, Hobert Valentine; Sec retary and Treasurer, Harry 0. Valentine; Chief Engineer and Bu|>erintendenl,\V. J. Nichols; Directors, Jacob I). Valentine, George Valentine, A. S. Valentino, W. J. Nichols, Adam Hoy, John P. Harris. Our morning contemporary has the fol lowing as to the route: "Tbo survey for the new road has already been completed under the management of Superintendent Nichols, and as near as we can learn—and wu get our information from one of the di rectors of the company—will connect with the Uald Eagle Valley road at the meadow just below town,oppositeCowdrick's brick yard. From thia point the road starts, and a substantial bridge will span Spring creek and carry tho road over to Armor's mead ow, whence it will take up through tho ra vino and along a small stream of water running down through the hollow. The line will cross the Jacksonville road on tho farm of ex-Sheriff Kline, about a mile below town, from whence it again takes through a hollow and a strip of wood, coming out near the farm house of Mr. James Curtin and making straight for the Anncsly ore bank, a short distance beluw this point, and which fur the present will be the terminus of the road." Already money enough I* subscribed to carry tho road thui far, and it I* the inten tion to continue the line to llublersburg, which ia claimed to be in the heart of the richest hematite ore deposit in the Slate, juet a* oon as sufficient slock is subscribed to warrant the undertaking. Branches will be built connecting Curtin's, Hoy's and tho Itiillefonie Ore Companies with the main line, and also tho sereral banks of the Messrs. Valentine. It was the com pany's original intention t begin the con struction of the road at once, but as some very unexpected and annoying obstacles have been encountered within the past few days by the management it is not at all probable that the building of the load will be commenced until spring. The Valen tines appear to be the leading movers in this, new and very commendable enter prise, as they have important interests at slake. One of the members of that firm slated the other day that for years tbey had been greatly exorcised to know bow to get their supply of ore from their several banks. Hauling It with teams was both expensive and uncertain, but it is hoped that the proposed new arrangement will overcome this perplexing difficulty. Ho further elated that it should be understood from the outset that the new road was not to be built solely in the interest of any Arm or corporation, hut that it was intended to bo a public improvement for the public good, and that it was hoped the people of iieilefonte more particularly would reap a great benefit in many different ways. The new road, it seems, will not be used exclusively for carrying ore, but a passen ger car will be attached to all trains, and. as the road is to pass quite a number of vil lages in the valley, there is no doubt that the people thereof will take liberal advan tage of the new m-ans of transportation offered. We sincerely wish the new cor poration abundant success. Y. M. C. A. Ht't.t.KTlJ.

MR. PEAI.E SXII TUB LIHEL SUIT.— The U'alrhtnan of last week took occasion to arraign the DEMOCRAT for its article on tho Peale-Humet libel suit, and it endeav ors to convey the idea that what was said by this pajw-r did great injustice to Mr. l'ealn. Whether it did or not is of but minor consequence, inasmuch as the report waa not printed as the opinion of the DEM CHAT, which would require only ordinary intelligence to observe. The affair wa called to tho notico of our reporter and prepared for publication ns an item of news, and not for tho purpose of creating an opinion favorable or unfavorable to either side. The l l'afchtnan, however, avoided presenting any aspect of the case, contenting itself with an attempt to place tho DEMOCRAT in a questionable position. If our reporter had aeon Mr. I'eale at the time the Humes aspect of the suit wna ob tained last week he would havo endeavored to secure Mr. I'eale'* views in reference to tbe matter for publication in connection with the story printed in our last edition. Mr. I'eale arrived in town on Monday of this week and the same evening our repor ter called upon him at the office of I'eale & McKco to learn if he desired to make arty statement in connection with tbe pending suit. The gentleman said he had fell considerably aggrieved at the lone of the article in some respect*, par ticularly with the assertion that he had instituted a libel suit without knowing whether tho charges of the defendant could bo proved or not, but he bad after reflection decided that he would say noth ing upon the subject for publication, and he requested that nothing further be printed bearing on the subject of tho libel suit, although he had no objection to the publication of the substance of the conver sation taking place at tbe time. He said ho was perfectly content to abide tho result of the trial of tbe suit (in a confident tone;, which will come up at the next term of court. Mr. I'eale, it is a pleasure to say, is a gentleman of high standing and acknowl edged ability in his profession; has always commanded the respect and confidence of every one who knows him, and nothing could have been further from the intention of the DEMOCRAT than to do him an injus tice, or in any way to create prejudice against him in the suit he hat teen proper to bring against Mr. Humes. GOVERNOR Ct'RTIX AT Tin FofR TKKXTII CAVALRY KKINIOK.— The sur viving members of tbe Fourteenth Regi ment, Pennsylvania cavalry, held a re union at Eiixabeth, Allegheny county, on Wednesday, the 1 Oth instant. The attend ance of veterans was not as large as it might have been, the regiment in the war consisting of twelve comjianies, owing to the distance from the place of meeting at which so many of the soldiers retid put up a flrat claM building fur bii #toek. Accordingly, that prince of carpenter#, William MrC'ormick, wat called upon to plan and build a barn that will, wberi com pleted, be Mjcond to none In the valley. .Several prominent character* graced the railing with their pretence. Notably aiming lhe*o wa Faquir" Thornpton, of Potter* Mill*, who did tome tall lifting not only at the barn but afterward at the table. Another prominent character u Tuten'* Agent, who wu trying to kill two bird* with one tone. He wu ranvaiting for lubm.riber* for the Itrpuitliain and elec tioneering agairikt John 1. Ken kin. A meeting of the citizen* wa* held on lait Saturday evening to consider the tub ject of petitioning the court for a county bridge acroit I*-nn't creek, near Henry Krumrinet. The tchool* of Gregg opened lait Mon day with the exception of the Spring Milla Grammar tchool, which will open on the HI at initant, under charge of a teacher whoe name I have not yet learned. The Democrat* on thi* wide are *olid for their ticket. No acrak-bing with u* I I hope the Democrat* throughout tba county will lick U> their ticket Don't give the Republican* any foot bold.
