It is hard to tell which party was tho most surprised at tho result of tho Election in this county. lobbery. On Wednesday night last, wo learn that some person entered tho store of Wm. Baker, at Donnelly's Mills and robbed it of some articles. Drowned. Henry Kcaner who has a wife and three childron residing in Harrisburg, was found drowned in tho canal near Dauphin, on Wednesday last. Hiitid Hurt. Charles Clark, a young man employed in this office, got his hand badly hurt on Saturday last, by having it caught in our power press. Though a very ugly and painful wound, Dr. Sweeney who dressed it, thinks no bones were broken. Tie Totes. In this borough Thos. Sutch, and John G. Shatto, candidates for School Directors had a ti3 vote. In Spring Twp., John Kistler and Wm. Kerne also "tied" on tho voto for Super visor. Tlio Factory of Messrs. Stevens & Co., of Boston, makers of the town clock in this borough, was totally destroyed by firo one night last week. Two clocks packed ready to ship and all their tools machinery and patterns were burned, inflicting a very se rious loss. Suicide. Andrew Knurr, miller, com mitted suieido at Boyd's mill, in Rush tp., Northumberland Co., on tho 21st tilt. When no person was near ho went into the mill and procured a gun and placing tho muzzlo to his forehead, touched oil' tho trigger with a stick ho had prepared for tho purpose, aud the whole load passod through his head, killing him instantly. Frccburg Courier. yCA. Narrow Escape. On Monday night of last week, tho brick building occupied by Capt. B. F. Miller, in Newport, had a narrow escape from destruction by lire, owing to a lamp exploding and setting lire to tho carpet. No person was in the room at tho time, but tho great light attracted tho attention of some boys in the street who at once gavo the alarm and prompt assistance being rendered, tho flames wero smothered by cushions, with a loss of only a few yards of carpet, and tho blackening and blistering of tho paint in that part of tho room. Tho stuff in tho lamp was "Darforth's uon ex plosive oil." Elf Oak Hall never did such a business U8 this season. No other Clothing House in Philadelphia could hold half tho cus tomers that have bought of Wananiaker & Brown. Some days the sales havo amounted to over $15,000 a day. Toting Men's Christian Association. Tho third annual convention of tho Young Men's Christian association of the Stato of Pennsylvania, will conveno at Scranton, Liucrao county, on Tuesday, November 8, 1870, closing its scssti on Thursday even ing. Delegates are expected from all asso ciations in tho Stato, among whom will be many- of our most prominent ministers and Christian workers. A most cordial invita tion is extended to ministers and Christian laymen in town and country districts where there are no Associations to como to tho Convention. A most hearty Christian wel como is assured to all who come, and ar rangements will bo made for their enter tainment, as well as for reduced faro on i railroads. All who design attending, are requested to address Thomas K. Crce, Chairman Stato Executive Committee, Pittsburg, that they may avail themselves of these privile ges. Daring Robbery of the Altoona Post-Of-flee. Sometime during Saturday night the Altoona Post Ollico was entered by bur glars who, so far as postal stamps were con cerned, made a clean thing of it. As near as can bo ascertained the amount of stamps on hand were valued at about fourteen hun dred dollars, which were all taken. As good luck would havo it there were only six registered letters in tho oflice at tho time, tho contents of three of which wero taken, one said to contain thirty dollars, another a small amount of stamps for Pop lar Run, and tho contents of the other not known. Tho burglars entered through tho door at tho rear end of tho hall, by using a jimmy, or some sharp instrument, forcing tho door by breaking and bending the lock, bolt, &c. So far as is known no letters or mail matter was disturbed. Colonel Stew art, the Postmaster, immediately notified tho Department of tho loss, and took other steps for the detection of the thieves. Sun of Oct, 10. Badly Burned. Wo learn that Mrs. Ba tram, of Frankford twp., was terribly burn ed by her clothes taking firo, on Tuesday of this week. Tho distressing occurrence took place at tho residence of Mrs. Fickcs, where, we believe Mrs. B. is living. From a weak condition of Mrs. B.'s mind it has never been considered safo for her to bo left alone, but on this occasion Mrs. F. for a moment had stepped to tho well to draw some water, and it was during this short in terval that tho distressing accident occur red. Her clothes by some means took lire from tho stove. Sho is badly burned in several parts of her body and her hands to such an extent that her finger nails have como off. Dr. Brehm, who was called to attend her, is of tho opinion that sho will not recover. Thero seems to be no relief for her extreme agony. Neioville Star. Railroad Accident. A serious accident occurred on tho railroad, in North Water street, near Witt's coal yard, by tho collid ing of two trains on Wednesday morning. As tho 7.15 Baltimore Accommodation train had proceeded on its way to tho above point it was met by a freight train coming North, and before tho engineers could check the speed of their trains they collided, doing considerable damage to tho engines and cars, and seriously injuring one of the engi neers, Mr. Kinter. Ho had both his legs badly lacerated, but no bones wero broken. Although ho is lying in a precarious condi tion, Dr. Pentz, his physician, is of the opinion that it will not ho necessary to am putate his limbs. Wo havo not heard of any other person or any of tho trains being seriously injured. York rresn. (Suicide. A rather singular suieido occurred in Deny township, Mifllin coun ty ou tho 12 th inst. Joseph Kearns, a man generally esteemed and of excellent character, asked his wife, to whom ho had been married only a few months, to tako a walk, aud after strolling up a by-lane, jumped over a fence, and suddenly drawing a razor from his pocket cut his throat from car to ear. Ho died in a few moments. No known causo existed for tho rash act, and it is thereforo supposed ho labored un der temporary insanity. Fur The Bloomfeld Times. Mr. Editor Sir, if you please, through tho 'Times wo desires to thank tho Supervi sors of roads in Centro township for hav ing repaired tho rough turnpike at Pow er's sc hool-house, which has long been a scandal to Centro township, and tho whole county. If ho will now repair tho road leading from Darlington's across Mahony Hill to the Perry Furnace we will treat him to a drink of old whisky, providing ho has not joined tho Good Templars. BriuNu TowNRinr. Diincanuou Items. On Sunday morning last tho 9th Inst., a valuable cow belonging to Mr. Thomas Miller, was found at tho bottom of an un covered culbert, below Columbia Avenue, along tho P. R. R., badly crippled. Mr. M. had her taken home, and has sinco been trying to doctor her up, but without any apparant success, as sho is not yet ablo to stand. It is not known whether sho was thrown there by a train, or driven there by some unknown boys who were seen driving her in that direction the evening previous. Tho old Brewery, on Columbia Avenue, has resumed operations, "under tho man agement of its owner, Dr. Boatler. Tho revival nt tho United Brcthern Church, closed on Monday evening tho 10th inst., resulting in ten accessions to the church. Brick, and curbing, is on hand, for a new pavement, in front of the M. E. church,' and will bo put down this week. Parlor croquet, bids fair to tako tho lead in evening pastimes, hero this season.
