We are pleased to learn that the Republicans

We have only to organize and bring out our
full vote, and there can be no doubt about the

Bankruptcy
There is a prey:sign in the - bankrupt law of
1868 that when assets of an insolvent do not
reach fifty per cent. of his liabilities, his dis
charge cannot be had without the consent of a
.. • ty of his creditors—both In number and
the amount of debt represented. Recently the
opinion hes been quite generally acted upon
that this clause of the act has been annulled, or
at least modified, by subsequent legislation.
Judge Blatcbford, of the United States circuit
court, in New York city, has exposed this error
in a late ruling. The bankrupt is confronted
with the single alternative of paying half his
indebtedness or take the risk of whatever con.
.beneet may ensue.
Susquehanna Depot
We made a brie! stop at Susquehanna Depot
on Thursday last, the first since the great fire,
and we weresurprised at the enterprise display
ed in rebuilding the burned district. A. large
number of new buildings are already occupied
and many others nearly completed. We no
ticed another public improvement that
transcends all others, and that is, the new wa
ter works. The water is being brought firom a
spring owned by GaylordyCurtia. Mr. C., in
tormPd us that the spring, in this dry time, will
continually supply a three Melt pipe which Is
water enough for tenithousand Individuals. The
fall is abimdent iv all practical purpose. We
congratulate the people of Susquehanna on the
immediate completing of this enterprise the
benefit of which cannot be numbered in dollars
and cents.
Tindal Nay Year.
The Jewish New Year commenced last Fri•
day eve. The festival is called Rosh Hashana,or
by studenti of the English Bible u the feast
of trumpets. The event has been chosen to
mark the dawn of the religious year in the dual
calendar of toe Hebrews. If we remember
rightly the distinction between the beginning
of the secular and ecclessutical year dates from
about the time of Ezra and the remodeling of
Hebrew worship that marked tho return from
the captivity, The testival is held on the that
and second days of the month, Tishri, the sev
enth month of the secular year.
The blowing of the Shaphar, or trumpet of
memorial, is the principal restore of the festi
val, and is held to signify the proclamation of
God as King of his chosen people, and slut to
sound an alarm to rouse them from their spir
itual lethargy. Besides its more common name
this festival is also known as Yome Liasikaron,
Or the day of memorials.' and Tome ibrAtatm
gah, or the day of the alarm blowing.

School Hatters
We learn that Mr. Dunmore, a native of Au•
burn, this county, and a successful teacher, has
been employed to-take charge of the Graded
school at BusquaLimns Depot. Mr. Dunmore
displayed excellent ability In the part he took
at the Teachers Institute at Montrose, and his
reputation as a first class teacher in this state
as well as in Vermont,where he has lately been
teaching, give promise that our neighboring
town is to have a first class school. We are
pleased to note this, for the unusual enterprise
of the citizens of that town, In building, fur
nishing and amply sustaining a school of that
character, deserves its accustomed sumess.

Sensible Suggestion.
There is something so axisible In this article,
which we find going the rounds of our exchan
ges, that we cannot avoid clipping for the ben
efit of our readers. if Its advice is heeded it
may save much mortification. "If you will
present a check without introduction at a bank
where you are not known, do not get heated
when the teller refuses to cash It, or ask him
whether you look more like a thief than •gen
demon. Instead of bothering him with ac.
nundrura, applaud his caution and regret your
indiscretion. Napoleon promoted a picket
guard who declined to accept his assurance that
he was the veritable terror of Europe, and Who
added pleasantly that he would shoot him if
be attempted to advance without the counter•
sign ; and why should not the guard behind a
bank counter demand the countersign es well?"
About. Dog Taxes.
The attention of these interested is carted to
the latter part of section 4th, page 76th, of the
set of February 15, 1872, entitled "An Act for
the Protection of Sheep in the County of Sus
quehanna," which may be seen at the once of
any Justice of the Peace in the County, as fel,
lows :
And if any person or persons, in said county,
shall keep or permit to be kept, or to remain
about his or her premises, any dog or dogs, not
duly returned to theproper assessor, such per
son or persons ilia forfeit, and be liable to pay
the sum of 5 dollars, recoverable in the name
of the Commonwealth, before a justice of the
peace, as debts of the like amount are by law
recoverable, one.half thereof to be paid to the
Informer, and the other half to the treasurerjof
the township or borough to be credited to
aforesaid account of dog taxes.

The Bradford Reteorter publishes an interest
ing amount of the celebration of the 80th birth
day of the venerable Sarah Welles at the Stone
House, at Athens, ?a., on the 26th tilt. Henry
S. Welles, the only living child of the venera
ble matron invited a large company of relations
and friends to be present and the occasion
proved to be a moat enjoyable one. lira. Welles
was a daughter of Col. John Spalding and
came of good revolutionary stock. Her hus
band, Gem Welles, acquired his title by ap
pointment of Gov. Snyder. He was the politi
cal rival of Cron. WlLeart. Among the guests
at the Stone Rouse were Senator Cameron,
Wm. Colder esq., and Bea. Reynolds, of Lan
caster. Judge Mercer and other notabilities.—
The venerable lady is described as one who
bears gracefully and lightly the cares and frosts
of eighty years.

It is aoldom that a band of burglars, by their
arrival and operations in a community, are re.
gamed as a public benefit, but such en instance
is Ce recent occurrence. Several burglarious
operations took place in various parts of Fred
erick county, Virginia, causing great alarm
throughout that region. This according to the
Winchester Pima, bad the effect of bringing to
the hank large deposits which often came from
unexpected quarters. People who hed not been
suspected of having cash enough to pay their
tame made their appearance in Winchester
with sums for deposit ranging irom hundreds
to thousands of dollars, and the money market
of that place suddenly became remarkably easy
—all on account of burglars in Frederick coun
ty haying frightened the countryman, who had
been hoarding their currency since the panic.—
This money now goes into general circulation.

One of the notable eyents of the year is to take
place at Easton. At the most propitious season
of our usually bright autumns the Pennsylvania
State Agricultural Society will hold Its twenty
second annual exhibition.
The display gives fruitful promise t hat it will
be one of ths very best ever held under the
auspices of the society. The entries are the to
all. The society have wisely determined that
the books of entries shall be closed a week be
fore the °pelting, so that complete arrangments
may be made of the entries made for prizes.
The time is at that period in which good weath
er may almost be counted a certainty.
The arrangtnents for meetings each evening
of the Fair are a new and excellent feature. In
these meetings farmers may learn from one
another, to the benefit of the great economical
interest which the society is so anxious to fos
ter.
A large display of improved farm stock will
be on exhibition—of fine horses and all the best
breeds of cattle. The exhibition of manufac
tured articles, unfitl as machinery, or Is aid to
the former, Is certain to be worthy of attention.
Bo many assurances In these respocts have been
given, that we feel confident in staling that the
display In all departments will be entirely gat
isfactory. The officers are now at EastonAnd
the entry books open, and aIl applications for
space in person or by letter will receive the

Kystoriosui Di:appearance.
Some months ago a man named Worden,from
some where near lthaca,married a buxom wid
ow of tame 140 pounds avordupois, awning
and living on a small farm near Little Marsh,
Tioga county, Pa. lie proved to be a quarrel
some fellow, was shunned and dreaded by his
ceighbors, end lived unhappily with his wife,
even beating her occasionally, and frequently
threatening her life, the principal trouble seem
ing to be that be wished her to deed him her
farm which she refused to do. On Saturday
night, Aug. 22d, she went to one of the neigh
bor's asking to stay all night, stating that he
had beaten her. On the next day he clime aft
er her and she accompanied him home, She
was seen then about dusk that evening, since
which neither has been seen. During the en
suing week the neighbors became somewhat
alarmed at their absence, as the cow was not
milked or other business attended to. On Fri
day they broke into the hones and instituted a
search. Blood was found in the hed and stains
looking like blood- partly washed out on the
floor ; also a dart of Worden's with the sleeves
bloody was found. The milk was standing in
the pail, just as they had milked that Sunday
night, untrained. A churning stood there
partly churned. Nearly all of her clothes were
there. No other marks of violence were seen.
The well was found partly filled with fresh
earth f it was dug out by the neighbors and the
premises and adjoining farms starched, but
with no further result. So there the matter
rests for the present. Wo hear the She riff is
looking up Worden for an a xplanatlen.—A7-

Tied to life Tract-
One of the most atrocie us crimes ever com.
milted was perpetrated at a point near Henry
villa, Lid., about 20 miles back from Jefferson
ville, on Saturday night, the 29th ult. A brief
account of the affair was given by telegraph,
but the following details from theJaffersonville
correspondence of the Louisville CO . utler Jour.
nal will be found Interesting :
Al freight train No. 10, coming south on the
J. M., and L Railroad, due at 10 o'clock yester
day morning, in charge of Conductor Water
house, had reached a point about one mile this
side of Efenryville, the train was hailed and
stopped. A number of men probably a dozen,
were gathered around a man, and Conductor
Waterhouse was told that a man had been run
over by a previous train, and was dying. The
conductor had the Injured man taken on board
the train, in company with Dr. Ferguson, of
Henryville,who bad bean called to render med
ical services. The iujnred man bad his left leg
, torn off by the, train, and was weak from the
loss of blood, and for some time after be was
aboard was unable to talk. He however, reviv
ed for a time, and told the. following horrible
story :
"My name is August Gardnes. I was born
in Prance, and have bwn from that country but
a short time. lam but twenty three years old.
I have no relation or friends in this country.—
My father Is dead. I was going. to Louisville
in search of employment, and as I had but lit
tle money I thought I would walk. It could
not have been much past ten o'clock last night,
when three men came up to me as I was walk
ing along the track. One 01 them demanded
my money. I told them that I was peer, hav
ing only a few dollars. This did not do any
good, tar they seized tne, two holding me and
the other one searching my pockets and taking
coy pocket book and everything else I bad.—
They then threw me down on the track. I
thought they were going to kill me and I beg
ged them to spare my life, They said nothing,
but ono of them produced a hang piece of rope
from his pocket, and they commenced to tie me
to the track, over a cattle guard. I was badly
frightened, and begged them hard not to do
hat. I told thein that I never knew them, and
If they would let me go I would say nothing of
what had occurred. While I was talking and
pleading with them they atilitkept on tying me
to the track over the cattle-guard. They tied
me lengthways to the rail. The rope was
tightly fattened around my body,legs and arms
When they got through I could not move my
arms and legs. While I was begging them not
to leave me there they went off. I know that
the cars would be along soon, and I tried my
utmost to free myself and loosen the ropes that
bound me. At first I did not think I would b e
able to move at all, but, alter repeated efforts I
Succeeded in working my arms and body oil
the track. In swinging down, I tried to get
my left leg off, but could not. I yelled with all
my might, hoping that somebody would come
and save me, but nu one came. It was raining
hard at the time, and very dark. I had been
lying there about an hour when I heard the
can whistle. I cannot tell you my feelings.—
[A. perceptible shudder here passed through the
frame of the dying man.] In a few seconds the
cars were nearly up to where I was lying. I
gave a wild shriek and closed my eyes. The
cars passed over me, the wheels cutting off my
leg, and cutting the ropes loose that bound me.
I suffered intense pain, and crawled and drag
ged myself a few fe.d from the track. I fainted
away, and when I came to I was very thirsty.
It was still raining, and I dug a hole in the
ground by my face with ray fingers, so that it
would fill with water. By doing this I manag
ed to get a little water. I was so weak that I
could not move, and I hallooed frequently dur
ing the night for help but no one came until
morning, when I was found."
The man has since died and the citizens of
llenrysville have °tiered 111,000 for the perpe
trators of tuts horrible crime.
