V . , m Death and Fire by Lightning. On Mon day afternoon of last weok the barn belong ing to Dan. Billinan in Spring twp., near Bridgeport was struck by lightning and entirely destroyed by fire. His son Jordon about 20 years of age was just closing the barn doors, and was instantly killed by the stroke. Another eon was in the basement of the building at the time putting away the horses, and be hearing tho stroke came up and dragged his brother away from the fire, and succeeded in getting out some of the vehicles that were in the barn. All of Mr. B's crop of grain and a quantity of hay with many farming implements were de stroyed. . The horses were turned out in time to save them, so that no stock was burned except two calves. ' There were no lightning rods on the barn and Mr. Billman had no insurance on (he premises. Several other bialdings in tho vicinity receivod slight shocks but escaped with but little damage. Bnrned to Death. A Bad accident oc curred at Thompsontown, Juniata Co., on Thursday last, by which a daughter of Mr. Mills, a merchant of that town lost her life. The girl who was about 13 yean of age was trying to kindle a Ure In the oook stove with coal oil, when the oil In the can took dire and exploded, throwing the burning rfluid Over her., The child ran Into the ' garden and a neighbor come to her rescue And smothered the flames with a blanket, but not before the little girl was burned so badly that she died in n few hours. A little boy was in the room at the time of the aocideut but escaped without Injury. The mother was absent at the time, having one to Mexico. There seem to be a singular fatality pertainiug to that house, as our coirespondent says this is the third child bnrned in that building, within a few years. When will persons learn that coal oil to not a aafe kindling? v Koles Stolen. On or about the 80th, of Jnne the subscriber bad four notes stolen fcom Itls reoidenoo in Saville twp. Three of the notes were dated on the 2d of March 1872, and were transfered to me by A. M. Miller. " One of tho notes was drawn by John Shuman for $11 64, one by P. D. Dolancy, for $U 05, aud one by Win. Jacobs, (of $14 43. The other note was drawn by Jacob Swab, on or about March 1st 1871, for $30 payable to my order. All persons are cautioned agaiust purchasing aid notes. D, 8, BiJUMAEKit, at .,:;;!.,.'.. i.;. amlldntcs For Office. There seems to be no danger of the offices not being filled from scarcity of Candidates. The follow ing Is a list so far as we have loarnod but there are probably others in our county who seek official honors. For Congress the most prominent candi dates, are Win. Drier, Esq., and Mr. John A. Magoo of this borough, C. Cary Tharp of Liverpool twp., Chas. G. Brandt of Greenwood, ox-Sheriff Rinehart of Millers town, and Dr. Swartz of Duncannon. Sev eral others are also mentioned as seeking the nomination, from this county, while the present member Hon. R J. Haider man is working for a re-election. For Associate Judgo, the following gen tlemen have been announced. Goo. Spahr, Esq., of this borough, John Kochondorfor, Esq., of Savilio twp., Mr, John Stambaugh of Tyrone twp., Col. John Hartzol of Newport, Mr. Isaac Meek of Liverpool, Dr. J. E. Singer of Newport and Mr. Aaron Egolf of Tyrone twp. For Register and Recorder Thos. J. Shoibloy, the present officer is tho only can-, didato as yet announced. For District Attorney, Jas. II. Furguson and Wm. N. Scibcrt, Esqs., are announced as Domocratio candidates While Calvin Neilson, Jacob Bailey and Wm. Sutch, Esqs., are announced as Republican Candi dates. Those are all worthy young law yers and either of them would make a officer. All the above except tho three last, are candidates subject to the decision of the Democratic Convention. We make no charge for tho above notice, but if any of the candidates feel a delicacy about receiving gratuitous advertising they can remit such amount as they think best. Shot by a Horse Thief. On Sunday morning a week says the Lebanon Courier a farmer named Christian Risser, residing in South Lebanon township, was shot by a horse thief. About 8 o'clock on Sunday morning he heard a noise in his barn, and thought that one of his horses had got loose. He arose from his bed and was going to wards the barn, and when some twenty yards from it he saw a man coming from the barn door with a saddlo on his arm. Mr. Risser made for him, and catching him by tho left arm a struggle ensued ;but soou the man drew a revolvor and lired, the ball from it striking Mr. Risser on tho right breast. He fell, but was up again in a mo ment and again caught the thief, who again fired, this timo tho ball passing through Mr. Risscr's hat just above tho rim and striking him in tho forehead, without peno trating. Again ho full, but rising again, the thief fired the third timo, tho ball striking him on the loft breast and glan cing around, passed into a post to tho depth of two inches. The thiof then took to his heels and escaped. Mr. R. describes him as a man of middling size, smoothly nil awl and about twenty-five years of ago. Men, Not Tarty. Tho indications now ai'o that the fitness of each candidato for tho office he seeks, will be more closely scrutinized this fall than it has ever been at any previous election. Tho people seem to have realized tho fact, that party success, must no longer be the only motive to guide their action at tho ballot box. They have learned that in both political parties, there are honest and capable mon, and it is such persons they have determined to cloct to office, even though to do so they are com pelled to defeat candidates placed in nomin aton by tho party which has heretofore re ceived their support. The day in which voters blindly followed the lead of the pol iticians has gone, and wo trust never to re turn. It will be well for our county con- ventions which meet next week to remember this fact, and place in nomination men whose character and capabilities will meet the popular demand. The porty failing to do tills will without doubt moot adofeat at the coming elocliuns and in such case they will only receive what they merit. Pf.a Adt One Tell I Can anv one tell why men who cannot pay small bills, can always find money to buy liquor, and treat when happening among their friends? Can any one tell how young mon who dodge their washerwoman, and are always behind with their landlords, can play bil liards night and day, and are always roady at a game ot cards ? ' , ' Can any one tell how men live and suit port tlteir families who have no income and do not wrk, while others who are indus trious and constantly employed are half starved? , ; , Can any one tell how it Is that nine-tenths of the mothers are so ready to sew for tho distant heathen, when their children at home are ragged and dirty ? Can any one tell why four-fifths of the young women prefer a brainless fop under a plug bat, with tight pants and a ' iliort- talled.coat, to a man with some brains? Church Notices.

The public Is cautioned against a deception being practiced by some persons in Peoria III., who are putting some stuff in bottles, and la belling It with an Imitation of Alfred.Specr's Port Grape Wine, from Alfred Bpcer, New Jersey. The general appearance of the same Is such aa to deceive the public, nntll they use the stuff in the bottle, when It will tell for Its elf. Speer'i Port Grape Wine Is made at Pas- mic, is. nnd this together with the number of his New York office, is printed on his label. Ills name Is Speer, Vineyards, New Jersey not "Spier Co., Peoria, 111." Our readers will easily notice the difference of places on the la bel. Tills Attempt to rob him of tlie high cha racter his wine has obtained, tolnjure hi busi ness, and to destroy the reputation of his Port Grape Wine, by palming off a vile Imitation, will, we trust, be frowned down and discour aged by all hoiicstdealcrs and the Press every where. Specr's reputation as a wine grower, and the character of his wines, is so well es tablished that several attempts have been made by unprincipled fellows to Impose upon the public some mixture put up and labeled simi lar to his Port Giape Wine. It Is well known throughout the United Btutesthat Alfred Speer was one of the first large wine growers in this country, the Bret who advertised native wines, and the first and only one who adopted the name of Port Grape Wine. Wo would Impress upon Physicians, In pre scribing his wines, to request their patients to Inspect the label, and see that they get Speer's Port Grape Wine, from his Vineyards In New Jersey, the oval landscape In the centre of the label having a lady on horseback, holding In her hand a bnnch of grapes. Every bottle of his goods has his signature, 'Alfred Speer, Passaic, N. J.," over the cork. None other Is genulue.
