By a report of the re ceipt for premiums of nine of the principal Insurance Companies in Hartford, Connec ticut, wo seo that the receipts of the .Etna are nearly equal to all the other eight put together, thus showing how popular that company is. Lewis Potter, of this bor ough, is their agent, and if in want of in surance for any kind of property, call on him and ask for a policy in the vEtna Insu rance Co., of Hartford. PThfi Storm of last Tuesday night was the most severe of any we have had during the winter. On Wednesday morning the large quantity of snow that had fallen was tcrri- I bly drifted, making travel almost impossi- ble, and for several days some of tho roads j were nearly impassible. The quantity of snow that fell was enough to cover the ground to the depth of about 17 inches on a level, but the warm sun of Thursday and Friday took it away so rapidly that by Sat urday last, sleighing was "played out," and traveling on wheels was anything but agreeable. Iiloomfleld Academy. The present pro pi letor of this institution seems determined to meet the demands of the public in every particular, and to offer all pos sible inducements to parents to depend up on this school for the education of their chil dren. After the first of April, music, draw ing and oil-painting will bo taught there. The department being under the charge of Miss Lottio E. Dodge, a graduate of Gene see Musical Institute, and a young lady who has had some experience and comes highly recommended. Wo trust the citi zens of this county will give Mr. Grier their hearty support. Coal Oil Explosions. Hardly a day pass es without some person being injured by tho explosion of coal oil lamps. These ac cidents are always caused by carelessness, or poor oil. To guard against tho laltor cause is very easy, by testing tho oil in tho following simple manner : Put a little hot water in a vessel and then let it stand until when tried by a thermometer, it indicates a heat of 1 10 degrees. Then pour a spoonful of oil on the water and touch a match to it. If tho oil instantly blazes, it Is not safe to use, and is of a quaility no person has a right to sell. Use oil that will stand this test and 1111 your lamps every morning, and coal oil ' it as safe an any other light. The IlodlcH of the Condemned. The Huntingdon Globe Fays tin some may be curious to know what disposition has lieen mndo of the bodies of Buhner and Uodcn burg, we relate. On 'Wednesday Sherill" Neety had appointed two colored men to bury them. They took the bodies to an open lot in tlio northeast portion of the town in the evening, but both the grave diggcrsgot drunk and left tho job before it was completed, and neither of the bodies were buried. On Thursday morning the Sheriff appointed another party to finish it, but while doing so the borough authori ties interfered and would not allow them to be buried within tho borough limits. The bodies were then taken to a Held a short distance from town where they were interred, with nothing but tlio mound to mark the spot. A Very Singular circumstance occurred near Mount Holly, on last Friday. Mr. Kawn started to tho South Mountain, on tlio morning of that day, with two horses and a wagon to bring a load of wood ; not returning in the evening, his brother and some others started in search of him, fearing that ho had met with some accident, and was unable to return. On arriving at tho place they found tho horses unhitched and tied to the wagon, tho tree cut down, and the axo laid on the hounds of the wagon, but no traces were found of the driver. The woods were scoured in all di rections until a late hour of the night, and resumed early on Saturday morning, with out success. On Saturday evening a dis patch was received by a friend of tho missing man, stating that he had lost his way in the woods, and was in Waynesboro', Franklin county on his way home. Car lisle Herald.

Any person convicted of selling impure adulterated or unwholesome milk shall pay a line of not less than fifty dollars or in prisoiiniont for not less than thirty days, or both. All who examine tho Parham machine arc much pleased with it. It runs so easy and still, and makes such pretty work, that a 'person who wants a machine will buy no other kind, after having seen tho Parham. See advertisement in another column. For the IV.oomfiM Times. Newport, March 10, 1870. Mr. Editor The "Purinr' ball on Fri day night in Keim's Hall was tho great sensation of this season, in Newport. The 17th and 18th of March being the days upon which the Jews celebrate tho Feast of Purini, our young citizens, although not all Jews, concluded to celebrate the occasion by a social hop on that evening. Being an invited guest, your correspondent had the extreme pleasure of being present, and en joying the sweet music by "Zikolf's Band," led by a young gentleman of our borough, of much musical ability, and whose smiling countenance alwas puts us iu mind of a full moon on a "bender." Tho beauty and elite of tho place were present in force, but Mr. O. II , with his lavender kids, could not bo seen, his place, however, was well filled, by the gent with tho huge but ele gant " Napoleonic moustache." Tho ''Mer chant from Venice" looked bold but ele gant in his blue Chesterlield, with brass buttons, and his commanding voice, as he called tho figures, rang like tho clarion notes of somo lone night guardian upon tho streets of Lancaster, on a cold, frosty night. Tho warrior from Howe township, looked his best, also, as in fact, did all tho gents. But the ladies! How can we describe tho m. How can any one dojustico to their elegant toilets ! Those graceful movements, those smiling countenances, those those but we can write no more our mind is carried away by tho remembrance of that sight. That beautiful blonde, with powdered hair. Oh ! my "You may break, you may shatter Tho vase, If you will. Hut the scent of the roses Will hang round It still." Seo that fair haired youth, with tho blue neck-tio ns ho lays his arm so gracefully round her waist ! Don't we wish wo were fair-haired too. Oh I for a blonde. Oh! for another Purim ball, and wo'll win that girl or die 1 You bot. Hrpoutku. Briefs. Quite an extended revival is in at tlio Uethel Church, at Carlisle. progress Selling eggs by weight is the topic now agitating somo sections. No doubt it would lie the most equitable way to disposo of them. The Peoples' Union Bank, the new bank just started at Newvillo have elected Wm. M. Marshall, formerly of Hagerstown, for their cashier. Peoplo who have to change their resi dence by tho 1st of April, will have a rough time moving. Already quite a num ber of ilittings have passed through town. Putting powder in a pipe of smoking to- haeco, is a joke recently played on a young man at Blue Ball, burning his face consid erably. He failed to sec where the laugh came in. ' It does not require any high or der of intellect to play such tricks. ie Western Fever seems to be troub ling many persons this spring. Last week three more citizens of Juniata township, left calculating to locate in Illinois. On Monday of last week a soldier named Thompson, deserted from the Carlisle Bar racks, taking with him a dark bay horse, belonging to tlio livery stable of G. W. Hilton. PA calf weighing 78 pounds, when it. was three hours old, is now in the stable of Thos. Sutch of this borough. Can any one in the county report ono as large? OBob.

The Con tinental Life Insurance Company, of New York, although in cxistance less than four years has eclipsed many companies organ ized several years prior to it. About twenty-two thousand policies have been issued since 1800, the year of its formation, and in 180!) alono nearly nine thousand policies were taken. This is certainly a gratifying exhibit and speaks volumes for the com pany and its officers. The Continental Life has established a reputation over which none of its rivals can claim just precedence. The Pennsylvania central a-rcnev of the company (in which this county is embra ced) is under the supervision of J. F. Eaton, of llarrisburg, whoso admirable manage ment and personal exertions have been pro ductive of the most gratifying results. Tho following certificate will show with what fidelity and promtitudo tho Continental Life discharges its obligations : John C. Flickinger, of Shippcnsburg, whose life was insured in tho .Continental Lite Insurance Company, of New York, for $5,000, by policy No. 0,203, dated Sep tember 12, 18(18, having died, this is to'cer tify that as the lawful holder and owner of said policy, I have this day received, from the stiid Continental Life Insuraneo Com pany, tho sum of live thousand dollars in settlement and full satisfaction of all claims under the same.
