"A FEAST Of BlASOtf ADO A FLOW OF SOCL."
At a recent meeting of the congregation
of the M. E. Church, at which W. S.

festival in the basement of the Methodist
church on the evening of Friday the second
day of April 1875. Prof. Geo. IV. Dixon
wis unanimously elocted general manager
for the evening of the festival and an effi
cient core consisting of a dozen or more ac
tive ladies and gentlemen were chosen as
assistant officers for the occasion. Every
effort will bo made by the different com
mittees to have a profusion of eatables
eonsisting of oysters raw, stewed and fried,
Ice cream, sandwiches, oranges, and
other fruit tegether with other articles to
numerous to mention which will tickle the
palate and please the eye. Some novelties
will be on exhibition among which will be
a sda fountain, from whose foaming fount
we may quaff the delicious beverage which
though it charms out taste will not steal
our senses, The design of this festival is
financially to secure ft little cash for .Rev.
Martin and socially to have a visit a
general interchange of thought and senti
ment. Come one come all with chanire in

your pockets and smiles on your face and
feal assured of a hearty welcome from the
officers in charge. By order of the com

The Pittsburgh Telegraph says:
The provisions of the Civil Rights bill,
much to the astonishment of those it
was expected to benefit, have been
nearly all nullified by the various do
cisions of tho United States Courts
Points raised by colored men relative to
accommodation at boarding houses, bar
ber shops, drinking and billiard saloona,
have all been determined against the
plaintiffs. It is claimed that only the
jury clause is to be passed upon by the
Courts, and it is said to be tho opiuion
in legal circles that the Supreme Court
will decide it unconstitutional when a
case iuvolviug tbe question comes be
fore it.
ARRESTED AFTER MANY l'EASR.
COLONEL BTTLER'S MURDERER IX 1874
CAUGHT IN 18ft).
Willinmsport Slarch 29. In October,
1801, Colonel Butler, of Brookvillo, Jeffer
son county, was directed to arrest Joseph
Louusbcrry, of Clearfield, for desertion.
Lounsberry had openly declared that he
wolud phoot whoever undertook his arrest,
and made his word good by killinsr Colonel
Butler on the spot, tskooting him with a
rfle. Th's was in Clearfield countv.
j .
The most intense excitement existed at the
time, and Government officials have during
this long interval attempted in vain to
make his arrest. A warrant for the arrest
ot Lounsberry was placed in the hands of
Detective A'athebonc, of the United States
Secret Service, on tho. 10th of March last.
Ho at once proceeded to Liberty, Tioga
county, in which place, it was said, Louns
berry was domiciled. He got an intimation
of his whereabouts from some words inad
vertently drooped by Lounsberry's friends
in Liberty. A'athbone made the arrest
yesterday at one o'clock. Lounsberry
makes no denial or concealment of his
crime. He will bo taken to Pittsburgh.
Tbe trial will develop some astonishing
facts implicating many in that section in
treasonable practices during the war.
Hon L. A. Mackey, member of Con
gress from this dia'.rict, has been noti
fied by the Secretary of the Navy that
thero is a vacancy in the Naval
Academy from this district, with tho re
quest that he nominate a candidate for
appointment. If such recommendation
is not made before the 1st of July, the
Secretary will fill the vacancy. For
the bcuefit of those who may think ot
applying for the position we copy from
the Lock Haven Democrat.
The candidate, if appointed, befijre
that time, will be required to report for
examination at tbe Naval Academy in
June. If appointed after that time,
but before tho first of July, he will be
examined on tho 15th of September.
The course of instruction is six years;
the pay 8500 per annum, but of this
thero is an outlay of ?1S1 50 for cloth
ing and $100 for books, &c. On admis
sion 100 must be deposited for books
and there will be an outlay for clothing.
Tho appointee must be over fourteen
and under eighteen years of age. No
candidate will be admitted unless lie
has satisfactorily passed an examination
by the Academic Board. He must be
in all respects physically sound, well
formed and of robust constitution. He
must be of good moral character, satis
factory testimonials of which must be
given, and must pass a satisfactory ex
amination before tho Academio Board
"in reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic,
geography and English grammar."
Arithmetio is considered particularly
essential, as the instructions read that
'the.boardshould ascertain the aptitude
of a candidate in this branch of study,
which if good, should count in his fa
vor in case of a slight deficiency in
other branches." But the examination
is thorough in all the branches named,
a "slight" deficiency only being admis
sable if made up by thoroughness in
arithmetio. And the Navy Department
earnestly recomonds any one "conscious
of any deficiency in these respects, uot
to subject themselves or their friends to
the mortification and disappointment
eooEequent npon failure, by accepting
appointments and attempting to enter a
service for which they are not fited-"

Murray Hill Publishing Company.
Speaking of that remarkably successful
Physician, Dr. L 11. Footi and the Mcr
rav Him. Pubmsuinq Company, "The
New York Independent " says:
Among the many successsful enterprises
in our metropolis may be mentioned that of
the Murray Hill l'Tnt-minua Company,
whose office and publishing rooms are at
12!i East 28th Street. This Company was
organized mainly for the purpose of pub
lishing the medical and reformatory works
written by .that eminently successful phy
sician, K. II. Footo, M. 1)., author of
'-Mcdioal Common Sense, a work widely
known in this and foreign countries, it
having reached a sale ol 2o0,u00 copies.
This work was revised and enlarged a few
years ugo, and reissued under the title of
"Dam Homo Talk and Medical Common
Sense," a valuable work of over 000 pages
and 200 Illustrations. The work, so re
vised and enlarged, has also sold to the ex
tent of nearly oue hundred thousand copies
and has been most favorably noticed by the
leadiug papers of the country
Dr. Foote possesses the happy faculty of
conveying information relating to the
physical well-being of people ia Buch a
plain way that he has succeeded in inter
esting thousands of those who have hardly
heretofore given a serious thought to such
matters. JIis "Plain Home Talk1' is filled
with interesting facts nnd suggestions to
(he sick, which have been derived from
over twenty years of experience in the
treatment of all forms of chronic disease
His elegantly atted oflices, at his residence,
120 Lexington Avenuo are daily throuced
with paticuis from all parti of tho country,
who bear witness to his uniformly success
ful treatment of their various ailments.
Ihe Murray Hill PoiiLmuxa Company
have also issued recently a beautiful series
of books in four volumes, entitled "Scienoe
in Btory, or Bammy Tubbs, the Bov l)oo-
tor," and "Sponsie ibo Troublesome
Monkey." Iho purpose of this series is to
interest tho young with un amusing story,
while at the samo time it teaches therein
the scienoe of physiology. It is written in
the Doctor's inimitably pleasing and simple
style, nnd certainly seems to succeed in
perfectly illustrating and sinyplifyinir the
kuetty, abstruco science oi physiology,
making it interesting and instructive to the
young, and we suspect that many of the
omer ones iiuglil read this interesting ser
ies with protil. TJio older ones indeed are
reading it, and are expressing their creat
satisfaction with the work, 'i'hoso who
are intelligent upon nearly every other
subject are olten tound to be laiiientubly
ignorant of their own organizations.
Among such as these this popular series
cannot fail to do a world of good.
We are disinclined to omit in this con
nection a brief desciiption of Dr. Foote's
establishment. The laboratory iu which
tbe medicines are prepared occupies the
upper floor, consisting of three rooms; fit
ted up with nil the conveniences nnd np
pliauces of a first-class laboratory. One of
these rooniH, where considerable hentia em
ployed, is made thoroughly lir-proof by
about six inches of Poriland Cement upon
its floor and walls. Here are many thous
and dollars' worth of various kinds of
medicinal roots nndj plants, from which,
under the personal supervision o. Ihe
Doctor, competent assistants prepare the
medicines for use. No nievcular or injuri
ous drugs are allowed to enter this labora
tory and the greatest pains is taken to ex
clude CTorytUing excepting the purest a d
best products of the botanical kingdom'
The laboratory is connected with the sub
basemcr.t of the fcuiding by a large bvdrau
lic elevator.
The floor below the laboratory is occu
pied by the stenographers, or short hand
writers, who are employed iu attending,
under the direct dictation of the Doctor, to
he imoieuse correspondence, which often
exceeds one hundred letters per da7. In
no other way could one brain and one pair
of hands attend to so many professional
letters. The Doctor has originated anl
perfected a scries of questions relating tj
tho physical conditions of invalids. These
questions are so thorough and complete
iliHt when they arc answered by patients
at a distance; the Doctor is able to make a
ooiuplete diagnosis and prescribe i'ur his
patients with about the uauie facility that
lie could do were tucy present, ihe ques
tions are furnished to all applicants by
mail or otherwise. By the aid of such per
fected ansners and ingenious registers for
booking all cases, he is now successfully
treating patients in all parts of this country
aud many in Europe, Asia and the West
lndlei. The uumeuse sale of his works,
treating directly of disease aud how o
avoid it, lmvo made his name almost a
household word. On the first floor are the
spacious and elegantly furnished ofllccs,
occupying four rooms, where Doctor Foote
port onally supcriuiemls the reception aud
consultation of his patients, assisted by two
physicians. Hero may bo seen patients
who have traveled long distances to avaii
themselves of the Doctor's well-known
skill and experience. The fact lhat no
charge is made for consultations in person
or by letter greatly increased the labor of
conducting such an establisliDent. But
this rule was adopted by the Doctor nt the
outset of his practice, and he proposes to
adhere to it iu spite of the extra work it
entails. Two largo rooms in the basement
are occupied for smaller publications,
paoking rooms, etc, while in the subbase
icent Jieia carponter's shop, wherein are
manufactuicd the wooden boxes used in
sending away medicines.
It seems almost incredible that aay one
having such a large professional business
to attend to can find the time to produce
the works which emanate from Dr. Foote's
pen. It is seldom that the Doctor absents
himself from his office during ofice hours.
A part of last summer, however, wai de
voted to the production of the new series,
during which time the details of the busi
ness were entrusted to competent associ
ates. Tne Murray Hill Pi blibuino Company
conducts its business on the subscription
plan mainly, and its agents may he found
in almost every neighborhood, while other
publishers in London and Berlin pursue a
similar plan in the sale of the Doctor's pub
lications abroad. Negotiations are now
pedding for the publication of the new
scries in London, and it will not be long
Detore "tammy lubbs ' will make his bow
