CORRESPON DENTS will please hear in

NOW IS l'OUlt TIME.
With tlio commencement of our next
volume, we intend making an addition in
size that will render tho Times the largest
paper published in tho county. We havo
not yet decided upon the subscription price,
but whether that is raised or not, wo mako
tho following liberal offer. To all new sub
scribers who get their names on our sub
scription list, and all old subscribers who
renew their subscription before the change
in size is made, we agree to send tho Times
ANOTHER YEAR FOR ONE DOLLAIt.
In making this ofler it may be proper for
us to state that wo shall continue to pub
lish an Independent Family Journal, devo
ted to tho interest of no party or faction.
Wo shall always give a complete record of
local and miscellaneous news.and such a va
riety of other reading matter that tho Times
will be a wclcomo visitor in every family.
No name will be placed in our list except
tho subscription is prepaid.
A Two Dollar note was brought to a Leb
anon Bank for redemption last Wednesday,
which had been taken from tho intestines
of a cat, in Montgomery county. Tho . cat
had stolen tho note and swallowed it, was
caught and shot, and the note taken out of
her.
Accident. On Thursday last tho editor
of this paper had his hand badly injured 1
t rraflitm !4- 1.-.!-. ti . 'I
"j ev"""6 ""w "iu power-press, lie natl;
a narrow cscapo from tho loss of his Angers,
but as it was he came off with one finger
badly smashed. Even though locals are
scarce, we w ill in future, try to obtain them
"om some other source or go without.
Tho "Village Camp Meeting," which
has been in progress during the past week,
at tho Methodist Church in this borough,
has been quite interesting, and will be cor,
tinuou through this week. Services will
be held every afternoon and evening.
Among the ministers whose presence is
promised is the Rev. Mr. Gray, of Thmp
soutown. Boy Stolen On Wednesday tho 21st
inst., the residence of Mrs, E. J. Dickey
Jf this borough was entered by some un
kuown person, and her eklcst son stolen
from out the frame which hung in its ac
customed place above tho mantle piece.
Mrs. D. is very desirous that the perpetra
tor of this bold deed should bo brought to
justice as soon as possiblo or tho portrait
of her son replaced to its old position.
An Outrage. From a Hanisburg letter,
received Saturday evening, we leara that
a fellow named Deitrick, while hunting on
Friday last near the railroad stock yards
above llarrisburg, met two girls, to ono of
whom he nde indecent proposals. Being
repulsed lie discharged his gun, wounding
them bvtb, in the face and head, the
wourtd of one being considered serious. He
was shortly after arrested, and is now in
jail n that city.
Vliere the Money (Joes. One of the
"ways by which the tax payers are swin
dled, is publishing an election proclama
tion of twice the length the law requires,
which space must of course be paid for. It
may bo cheerful reading for die editors who
are getting paid for it, but we much doubt
whether ten other men can be found in the
county who have read it, or who could be
hired to do so for any reasonable sum. It
is time this proclamation was shortened,
and tho tax payers saved nearly one-half of
what it now costs.
A Hood Chance. A property consisting
of a House, Barn and 8 Acres of Land, sit
uated one-half-a-milo South of Bloomfield,
will be exchanged for a Small Store or other
business, in any part of tho State, or sold
Cheap for Cash. Call on or address

Hearth and Home, a finely illustrated fami
ly journal of a high character, hitherto is
sued by Messrs. Pettengill, Bates & Co.,
has been purchased by Messrs. Oranco
Judd& Co., of 245 Broadway, Now York
the well-known publishers of the American
Agriculturist. Messrs. 8. M. Pettengill &
Co., whose great Advertising Agency, es
tablished in 1849, is ouo of tho largest and
most reputable in tho world, find that their
extensive business requires their exclusive
attention, and they therefore transfer
Hearth and Home to the new Publishers,
whoso long experience and nbundaut facili
ties will enable them not only to maintain
the past high character of the paper, but to
ana materially 10 ira value. The new
Publishers also announce a reduction of the
terms to $3 per year. Tho change will not
at all affect tho American Agriculturist,
which will continue on independently at
heretofore. The Illustrations and reading
matter of tho two journals will be entirely
different. Either of tho journals will be
lurmsned irom now to tho end of 1871 (15
months), at the yearly subscrintion rate.

much indebted to him for placing mo in
new angles of observation, which disclose
in those objects beauties not before discov
