Notice. I will call on the citizens of BlooinlioUl, this week, for their State and County tax for 1874. Please bear this in mind, and be prepared to fork over. J. B. Hackett, July 28, 1874. Collector. Jobbery. The Duncannon Record says : On Tuesday night at about 12 o'clock, some person or persons broke in and robbed the gun shop of James Black of two shot guns. We learn that the thieves did attempt to go into tho house at the kitchen door, but were frustrated in their plans. Humor has it that a regular band of outlaws aro now concealed in the mountains, with tho plain purpose of committing robbery on inoffen sive persons, and probably incendiarism, lot all be on their guard. On the same night the shoemaker shop of 'William DePugh's was broken into and robbed of a pair of boots, a rasp and sever al.) smaller articles. The robbers after loaviDg Mr. DePugh shop, went to tho house of Mr. Joseph Smith, stealing sever al hams, a lot of fruit jars, and a largo "mess" of pickles. Narrow Escape. A little daughter of Jonas Beets, residing at the east end of town aged about four years, made, on Wednesday, an almost miraculous escapo from sudden death. Tho child, whilo cross ing the Pennsylvania Railroad track, was struck by the engine of a freight train bound east, and pitched off the track. She fell immediately outsido of the rail, where either because stunned, frightened, or great ly solf-possessed, she lay quietly until the train was stopped, which was not done till about the half of a long train had passed by. Every wheel of tho passing cars touch ed the body of the child and the circum stance is one of those marvellous escapes we occasionally meet, which would indi cate the interference of a higher power. Strange, beyond a few scratches, the imper iled girl escaped injury. Marietta Register. An Elopement. The Altoona Tribune eays : During the past twenty-four hours this city has been rife with rumors concern ing the elopement of a well-known citizen in the person of John M. BuBb, a merchant who does business at No. 1224 Seventh av enue, with a young Westmoreland county girl named Alice Hutchison. Mr. Bush and wife resided in the same building in which the store was located.' They have been married for the past nineteen years during which time the family has not been blest with any olive branches. About one year since Alice Hutchison was employed as a domestic in the Bush family, and im mediately thereafter an intimacy sprang up between her and Mr. Bush which culmina ted in Mrs. Bush driving' Alice from the premises. While she remained an inmate of the family it is alleged that J. M. B. bought Alice an organ for which he paid the sum of f 1 75,00; at another time a gold ring, for which he paid f 15, and at other times articles valued at various suras, from $5 to $100. After she had been driven from the house Alice returned to her home in West moreland county, but kept up an uninter rupted correspondence with Mr. Bush, un til a day or two since, when be packed up his other shirt in his little satchel, and meeting Alice at the depot, the twain left for whore the woodbine twineth. Previous to taking his departure Mr Bush had a lit tle interview with his banker and drew out all the available money that he had depos ited with him. He doubtless expects to re main absent for some time as bo took the 'precaution to delegate to a friond with the power of an attorney to look after his business relations. Mr. Bush is a man who has but one arm, and has enjoyed the rep. utation of bolngtt -straight-forward business man, and honorable in all his dealings. It is said, however, that his domes tio relations were of f very unpleasant nature. , Church Notices, Preaching in the Reformed Church next Sunday at 2i o'clock, P. M.

Zach Rice has lost his pocket book, and wants it returned, as it contains $230, besides somo valuable papers. He will pay $50 reward for it.

Xa now school liouso is to be built in Oliver township, near tho Furnace. Nich. Hartzel has the contract for $750.

C On Saturday, July 18th, Harry, a little son about lour years or ago, of Jacob Sheibloy, ate a largo box of Indigo, which came near proving fatal, but prompt medi cal attention saved his life X Tho enterprising proprietors of tho Ju niata Pottery, Messrs. J1. & T. Miller, havo placed a very fancy wagon on tho road, for the purpose of delivering thoir ware. Toland, the post master at Duncan non, has for some time boon troubled by chicken thieves. He endod his trouble a few nights since by the capture of a mink in a trap ho had sot. Candidates for the various offices to be filled at the next election are skirmishing around the county in a way that suggests that the men are hunting the office, and not the office the men. A few days since, Mr. John Kramor had a narrow escape from sorious injury. While working in a quarry on the farm of David Smith, live or six loads of stone fell, some of them bruising him on the leg. XMr. Josiah Sloop, of Rye twp., has lost 2 cows and 1 heifer. The animals strayed away while Mr. S. was absent harvesting, and as yot ho has no report of their where abouts. If an honest man has them ho will make known the fact. XRye township is sadly troubled with thieves. Not long since they stole all the meat on the premises of John Krymoyer, and now to secure the vegetables to eat with the meat, they, or some other thioves dug the potatoes from the patch, belonging to Wm. Soitz, and carried them away. An adjourned court was held in the Court House on Monday of last week. No business was done except to argue the mandamus applied for to compel payment of a sum claimed by Mr. Hartzel, for build ing road in Howe twp. No decision has yet been rendered. XOn Monday afternoon of last weok, a son of Joseph Mutzabaugh, aged six years, while playing around the Duncannon Blast Furnace, accidentally fell through a "vent" of the same, a distance of thirty-five feet. He was terribly bruised, and also sustained severe internal injuries. For some time past Mr. Daniel Howard, re siding below Newport, has been sorely afflicted with a bunion on one of his feet, so much so that he was compelled to quit working at his trade carpentering. A few days ago while examining the suppos ed bunion, he extracted a "catfish stiugor" from his foot, since which he has had much relief. Xo n Friday last, a crock containing cherrv butter standing on the stove in the resi dence of Wm. Lupfer, burst with a noise as loud as that made by the discharge of a gun. Mrs. Lupfer who was stirring it at the time, was completely covered with the hot butter, and was somewhat burned on on the face. The crock was broken into very small pieces. Squirrels cannot legally be shot until the 1st of September this year. It is rather singular at what various dates our Legisla ture has legalized the shooting of squirrels within the last 83 years. In 1841 the law allowed this game to be taken from the 10th of June to the 1st of January ; in 1852, from the 1st of July ; in 1806, from the 15th of August ; in 1800, from the 1st of August ; in 1873, from the 1st of July, and in 1874, from the 1st of September. For the Bloomflold Times. Madison Still Ahead. K Mr. Editor : Your last issue contained a piece signed Boholdor, in which he states that there are some mighty working-men in Jackson. It reads as follows : " A. B. Trostle and Uezekiah Minick, of our town, cut, tied and shocked on Captain Gutshall's farm, thirty acres of wheat in seven days. They cut this in seven days in succession. The wheat was as heavy as any in the county. Now who will beat this?" We answer Madison. Messrs. William, James, and Samuel Arnold and Samuel Bheaffer, cut twenty five acres of oats on Colonel Arnold's farm in three fourths of a day, the oats was heavy and hard to out, being knocked down by a previous storm. Jack son, what do you think of that ? It would be well for Centre to consult Jackson, but it would be still better for Jackson to con sult Madison, beCwro they crow so loud. It is very humiliating for one to be beaten, but how much more so is it for those poor men of Jackson to be taken down so mis erably after thinking they did the business. We would only say to our Jackson friends before you speak again be sure there aro none to beat you. Try again. M. For the Bloomfleld Times. Where are those Whortleberries f Mr. Editor : One day last week, a party of twelve or fourteen went in a spring wagon to the Bower's Mountain, about three miles south of Blain, for Whortleber ries. It was a pitiful sight to .see their return, and still more pitiful to bear the story of their adventures with different objects while there. Among the objects they encountered was an innumerable host of flios. That could have been easily seen, by any person who uw their entrance into town. The horses and occupants of the "vehicle," wore covered, with fern leaves. especially Dick, for he was entirely covered with weeds, which he had mistaken fof fern leaves.' . It i not necessary to mention, what Dicky We suppose he knows whom we mean. 1 But, lu the language of our ubiect, we exclaim. " Whore are those Whortloberries." We have not seen any of them, but we have heard of them. Ac cording to accounts they had a tin-ful apiece. Wo think thoy had bottor try it again. Correspondent. jji.ain, pa., July 24, 1874. For the riloomndd Times. Trouble in the Peace Union Camp. Last weok, Mr. B.'s hoes straved out on the road, and got into "Peace Union" yard through an opeu gate, doing some little damage. Then "P. U." drove the hogs into his barn-yard, to shut them up, but tho fence boing bad, thoy broke through into the cornfiold, which so raised the spirit of " P. U." that he sot his dogs on the hog and stoning it, injuring it badly, then he threw it out over the fonce, killing it thon and there. After Mr. B., heard that his hog was killed, he talked to P. U., about it, and got but littlo satisfaction. Then P. U., took the hog home and buried it in bis dung-heap right beside the public road and tho stench is anything but agree ablo to those who pass the road. As the citizens of this valley aro all poaceablo and quiet, nothing was yot done iu the matter matter, but they would advise Peace Union not to go too far or he will provoke them to wrath, and the law will take its course. New Germany. Cumberland County. From tho Cum berland county papers of last week, wo copy the following : Never did Cumberland county gather a larger grain crop than this year. One morning last week, a larcre copper head snake was found lying upon a table in the kitchen of Mr. William Powloy's residonco, on Mountain Street. Mr. Pow lcy succeeded in killing his snakeship, but how it got into the house is a mystery. Mt. llolly Echo.

Two prisoners named Francis and Charles Speelman, brothers, due them selves out of our jail on Wednesday night of last week. With a case knife and chisol they made a hole in the wall of thoir cell sufficiently large to enable them to creep out. Then with a ropo, mode out of thoir bed tioking, they lot themselves to the ground ; with the aid of another rope, to which wag attached grappling irons, they scaled the high stone wall,ana took to their heels. The first-named is S foot 10 inches in heicht. 20 years of acre, with light hair and dark eyes. The latter is 18 years of age, of stout build, 5 feet three inches in height, with light hair and eyes. Thoy were in jail for burglary, and would have been tried at our coming August court. Sheriff Totton offers a reward of $50 for their apprehension. The escaped fugitives are old criminals, and were sentenced on two or three occasions in the Dauphin county court for stealing. Volunteer. Juniata County. From tho Mifllintown papers we copy the following : Samuol II. Brown has been appointed postmaster for the borough of Patterson, vice Samuol Strayer, removed.
