Ridgway, May 10th. 1871;
Editor Elk Advocate. It is gen
erally known that the Commissioners of
J'. Ik county are about to have a new
bridge elected across tho Clarion River
at West end of tho village, and it seems
to be the ioipressiou with many that an
iron bridge will be the kind selected.
Now while the county is putting a sub
btautial and perjiauent structure here
we think the citizens of. llidgway
should endeavor to have it put in such
position as will make as good an ap
pearance as possible. For this reason
the bridge should be run more directly
East and West than tho present one,
and thus bring Main street into better
shape. This would necessarily require
either cutting a new channel further
north for Elk Creek, which is eaoh year
encroaching on the street and at every
flood everflowing the same, or the wall
ing up tho south bank of the stream
and filling vp the street. We are more
in favor of the first suggestion as by
this means no possible chance could
exist of washings; and thiuk the better
appearance of the town would pay for
the trouble.

Preparations are now making to carry
into effect the new law concerning the
issue of patent office reports. Pamph
lets will be issued describing each pat
ent, and these, besides being sent to ap
plicants for patents, may be subscribed
for by others. The office will fix a
price near the cost price for each speci
fication, and munufactuiers and others
interested in a special class of inven
tions can make a deposit of from one
to five dollars with the office, and all
the patents in any class desired will be
sent, and the cost charged against the
deposit till it is exhausted. The price
will not bo over one cent per copy on
the average, and the whole cost to the
patent office under this system will not
exceed 8120,000, which is less than
half the cost of the old reports. The
plan will be put iuto immediate opera
tion to that extent. tlarrisburg Tele

Keep the Boys in at NrauT.
Worse than the shad flea of early spring
or the gnats nnd mosquitoes of summer
is tho chorus of howling boys. Like
the dogs of Constantinople, they travel
the streets and alleys when darkness sets
in and forgotten by parents and guard
ians, they wander to end fro alter some
thing to satisfy their hideous uiirib.
Pime and a;;ain has the attention of
careless parents been called to the dan
gerous consequences resulting from this
want of disciple, but many indulgent
parents cannot be brought to feel the
tremendous responsibility resting upon
them, and so year after year and
generation after generation will the
paths of vice and infamy be filled with
men who received their early bias to
ward evil ways, in the night saloon.
Liberty is not license to do all that the
misconstructed judgement suggests,
and many a father has beheld with bit
ter tears the results of liceoso to bis
offspring. The inherent vice of human
nature is developed like plants in a hot
bed of vile compost, whea the surround
ings are of a favorable character. And
the darkness of night with convenient
dry goods boxes for seats, and a dozen
boys to occupy theiu, will start a growth
of evil deeds that all the subsequent
teachings of virtue may fail to eradi
cate. Erie Republican.
The Fiquke Five. Any number
of figures you may wish to multiply by
5 will give the same result if divided
by 2, a much quicker operation; but
you must remember to annex a cipher
to the answer, when there is no remain
der; and when there is a remainer, an
nex a 5 to the answer. Multiply 4 64
by 5, and the answer will bo 2,320; di
vide tho same Dumber bv 2. and vou
have 232, and, as there is no remainder.
you add a cipher. Now take 857, and
multiply by a, the answer is 1.785. On
dividing 857 by 2, there is 178, and a
remainder; you then place a 5 at the
end ot the result, which gives 1,785.
The reason of this process is obvious,
since multiplying by 5 is the same as
multiplying by 10 (which is effected by
placing a cipher to the right of the
unit's place) aod dividing by 2.

Ths Hule that Stood on a Steamboat Deck.
OT IIT llKtT HARTS.
The mule that stood on a t'eamboat deck,
The land he would not tread;
They pulled the halter round his neck,
And cracked Mm o'er the head.
Yet firm and steadfast there lie etood
Ai though formed for to rule;
A critter of heroio blood
Was that there cussed mule.
They missed and swore ho would not go,
Until he felt inclined; '
And though they showered blow on blow,
lie wouldn't change his mind.
The 4 --ck hands to the shore then cried,
"Tliis mule's bound for to tiny,"
Anff still upon the critter's hido
They lauimed and lammed away.
Hia master from the shore replied
"The boat's about, to sail,
And every other means you've tried,
Suppose you twist his tail."
"It's likely that will make him land."
The deck man brave though pale
Approached him with his outstretched hand,
To twist that there mule's tail.
There crime a sudden kick behind!
The man oh! Where was he!
Ask of the softly blowing winds,
The fishes in the sea!
For a moment there was not a sound
As that mule winked his eye,
As though to nsk of those around,
"Now how la that for big h?"
"Cut tbat there mule's throat, right away,
The captain did command.
But the noblest critter killei that day
Was the fearless, brave deck. hand.
Tns Allentown Ledger. J. S
Whitney, founder and proprietor of this
vuluuble family journal, has recently
associated with himself Mr. E. Moss, of
Allenlown, stationer and publisher of
the Lehigh Patriot. The business will
hereafter be carried on under the title
ot Moss & Whitney. Mr. Moss brings
to the enterprise a ripe experience and
good executive ability. He will take
charge of the financial department of
the business, leaving Mr. Whitney free
to devote more time to hia editorial la
bors. The success which has thus far
attended the Ledger, is an evidence of
what pluck and determined effort will
accomplish. But something more is
wanted in these days; capital and good
financial management. These valuable
aids arc (secured in the incoming of Mr.
Moss, and, as improvements are to be
mado in both papers that will add much
to their value, there is no doubt that
both journals will soon attain to greater
usefulness and give abundant evidence
of success. The Ledger is One Dollar a

Ut THB nitV. w. H. B03LH.
At the National Camp-Meeting, held
atDukington, in the summer of last
year, a !e f Christians met in a tent for
prayer. The subject which brought
them lozether ivas the unsaved condi
tion of tw.i notable individuals living in
two different cities, and fur away Irom
these who were met in secret council to
plead for their iimtipdiiite salvation. In
the patience of faith, they waited on the
Lord, and in long and earnest supplica
tion laid their cause belore the great
Judge.
Two n onths or more had rolled away
when the confidently cxpeoted answer
appeared. But how opposite the re
sults Unn ot the subjects ot then
pleadings, who had lived to old aire, be.
came hardened in opposition to Christi
anily, openly expressing his aversion
and tl.at in the most contemptuous
spirit ana tnanuer. J his man, bein
one evening in the parlor of his man
sion, suddenly felt arrested by an tin
seen power, which forced upon bis mind
tho dreadful conviction that so long as
he continued to reject the Lord Jesus
Christ, so lung was he exposed to the
inaignation ana wrath ot the Almighty
God. And this conviction came while
listening to a Christian who with sweet
voice was singing songs cf Zion. The
stubborn heart aud silvered head bowed
low under the power of the almighty
Conqueror; and in tho self-same night
he rose a new man, washed in the blood
which cleanses the soul, happy in the
divine love which for so long years be
had rejected. Since that eventful honr
this "wonder of grace" has continued a
faithful witness of Christ his house a
house of prayer, and all his ways testi
fying to the genuiueness of the remar
kable change.
But what of the other? He was t
noted character in the Fourth Ward,
wielding a powerful influence among all
classes, especially in political affairs
Quiet and reseivcd as to his general
bearing, this man carried with him
heart and will that wero equal to any
work of darkness and blood. Forty
years of life amocg tho "wild beasts"
of human kind had so wrought upon
his physical nature that his looks could
almost induce a belief in the possibility
of the transmigration of the soul of an
animal into the body of a man.
Nevertheless, even fur this being
Jesus Christ died: and earnest prayer
brought couvictiou of sin, to enlighten
and uluini bit conscience. His couvic
tion was as sudden una marked as was
that of the first case. It was in August
ot last year, on a Sabbath afternoon,
during a sermon preached in one of the
streets ot tho rourth Ward, by a mm
ister engaged in street preaching, while
tbts man stood carelessly listening, an
arrow shot into his heart, so quick and
sharp he suddenly turned and fled from
the spot. But he could not run away
from God or conscience. His pain of
mind was apparent to his companions iu
sin, who could not, however, appreciate
the cause of his strange conduct. Now
came the struggle between God's Spirit
and this man's will. Conscience, sud
denly awakened, cried out against him,
and pleaded for tho truth. But with
horrid oaths he resisted his Maker, and
fought with desperation against the con
victions under which he labored. And
the wicked man conquered.
The impressions .never came again
Four months alterrnie abov event he
was struck with death while ut the bar
of his "gin-mill," atid after remaining
senseless fur u few days, unable to be
moved Irom the spot where tho angel
smote him, he died as the brute dieth,
surrounded by dogs and abandonded
characters.
Keep Away from tho Wheels.
Little Charles Williams lived near
manufactory, and he was very fond of
going among the workmen aud the
young people who were at work there.
1 he foreman would say to him: "Keep
away Irom the wheels, Charlie. Char
lio did not mind, and would often say
"I can take care of myself." Often he
would go near, and the wind of the
wheels would almost suck him in, and
two or three times hegiew so dizzy that
he scarcely knew which way to go. At
length one day he staggered while a&iid
tho wheels, and fell the wrong way; the
band caught his little coat and drew
him in, and he was dreadfully mangled.
So it is boys, when you go in the
way of temptation; you may think you
can take eare of yourselves, and keep
clear ot the wheels; but oh! you may
find yourselves dreadfully mistaken.
Before you are aware of it, you may be
caught and destroyed. Keep away from
the wheels. Young Reaper.
Cobs of Coal ani Infidelity.
An English collier once made this
good hit at infidelity. It occurred at
ib close of an infidel meeting: "Mais
ter Bradlaugh, me and my mate were
both Methodys, till one ot these infidel
chaps cam' this way. Jim turned infi
del, and used to taper me about attend
ing class-meetings and prayer meetings;
but one day in the pit a large cob of
coal came down upon Jim's head. Jim
thought he was killed, aod, ah, tnon!
but he did holler." Then turning to
Bro. Bradlaugh, with a very knowing
look, he said: "Young man, there's
nought like cobs of coal for knocking
infidelity out of a man." The ufidel
had but a small minority with him after
this palpable hit.
In the depths of the sea the waters
are still; the heaviest grief is that
borne in silence; the deepest love flows
through the eye and touch; the purest
joy is unspeakable; the most impressive
preacher at a funeral is the silent one
wtrose lips are cold.
Coal Tit onFlro for CreHunirel 7ear3.
The liondon Nics says: "One of
the most curious phenomena in connec
tion with cool mining is exhibited it
the Bank colliery, near Kothcrhnni, the
property of Earl Fitzwilliam. This pit
caught fire 100 years ago, and all the
eflorts ot workmen at the time, and
subsequently, have been quite inefTco
tual to extmquieh it. A short time ago
it was ascertained that the flames were
approaching the bottom ot the shaft,
and it was then resolved, if possible, to
stay tho progress, so that they might
not extend to other parts of iho work
ings. At length the superintendent of
the colliener, Mr. T. Cooper, conceived
tho idea of building a wall to shut in
the fire, and in order to ascertain the
best side for this wall, several of the
officials crept on their hands and knees
through the dense stifling smoke, as far
as possible into the workings.
Their efforts were successful, and a
wall is now completed nearly 1,000
yards in length, and varying from nine
inches to five feet in thickness. At dis
tances varying from thirty to fifty yards,
metal pipes have been inserted in this
wall, which are securely plugged at the
end, so that at any time, by removing
the plugs, the state of the air on the
side of the fire, and even the position
of the fire itself, can be ascertained.
So intense is the heat arising from this
fire that people possessing gardens
above the colliery declare that the
growth of plants is materially affected,
and that they are enabled lo obtain two
and three crops every year.
