The New Conrt Hommu Every visitor to our village Is pleased with the appearance of the new Court House so far as It has progressed. The foundation wall on the west sldo Is ready for the water table, and an Idea can be formed as to how the stone work will appear when oompleUd. We are told, and we think reliably, that It Is the Intention to build the whole superstructure, that Is the walls, of brick without any ornamentation. This we think Is a mistake. Our Co. Commissioners, during their last term, earned for themselves the commen dation of evey one for the manner In which they had conducted the busi ness of the office and the excellent judgment displayed by them In all places when re the exercise of that faculty was required. They should remember that In erect ing a building of this kind, Intended for public use and to last many years, that something more than the plainest kind of work, even though It be sub stantial, is required. Such stone as have gone Into the foundation are plenty In Ridgway and within a short distance of the public square; they cut nicely, have good color, contrasting with the brick, and will stand weather as well as granite. It seems to us that under the circumstances It would be the part of wisdom to lay up the corners of the walls at least with cut stone as it would add but very slightly to the expense. ' -. The Improved appearance of the building, so ornamented, would be worth ten times the additional cost, and the Idea of the architect would be more fully carried out. If it were a mere temporary structure then we should say sacrifice every thing but utility to cheapness, but as it is hoped that the expenditure now made will lost for generations, let us have sometb i n g to please the eye as well as a structure that shall be fitted for the purpose for which it is designed. If the plan of the building is followed as it should be to make a harmonious whole, we will have a Court 'House of which all the citizens of our county may well be proud Instead of a red brick monstrosity which no one will assume the task of christening. Messrs. Commissioners please re- meinembcr that : "A thing of beauty is a joy forever," and spare us t ho unbroken Hues of brick by building the corners of the new Court House of cut stone. 100 cocoanuts fresh and prime at Morgester's.

The Boston co-operative grocery under the Presidency of Josiah Quincy, has been open three months, and is said to be a success. The plan is to sell uuadultered goods ut fair prices, and return the profits to the purchasers. With every sale a certifi cate of the amount is given, and every three mouths a dividend is paid on these, shareholders receiving double the rate given to outsiders, besides six per cent, on the money invested. At the first quarterly meeting, President Quincy said: "Your organization has already produced much good. Appli- cations for your by-laws have been re ceived from all parts of the United States. Probably more than fifty stores have beeu, or soon will be, opened In consequence of your ex- ample, and this most comprehensive scheme of benevolence, resting on self- help and material assistance, become general through the land."

One of the first things accomplished by the frightful looking object was to scare a child Into convul sions. In Willianisport, two house paint ers named John Wasser and Dale Allen fell from a scaffolding to the pavement, a distance of twenty feet. The latter was only bruised, but the former received probaMy fatal internal injuries. A bogus revenue officer has been making things lively in Huntingdon. He managed before he was detected to collect fifteen or twenty dollars from dealers in the town for alleged viola tions of the revenue, laws, and then skipped.

Farmers in the lower portion of Chester county are suffering greatly from the ravages of a new and strange looking beetle that is killing their corn.

The ten year old daughter of Henry Bishop, of Annvllle, Lebanon county, has mysteriously disappeared and so far nothing is known of her whereabouts.

For behaving thus he was lodged in jail. The shot gun that travels around in company with the boy has appeared in Lebanon county. A youth of that section was lying on the grass beneath a tree and so was the guu. He at tempted to draw the guu a little closer to him, and as he did so a tuft of grass caught the trigger and the load of shot left the barrel and took up Its position in bis arm.

Pittsburgh Is one of the blackest of cities by reason of the smoke from its manufactures; but a plan is being tested that promises to make it clean The proposition Is to wash .the smoke and the way of doing Is thus described: The washing Is done by passing the smoke through the spray caused by pad dle wheels revolving in a tank of water holding soda ash In solution.

Saturday afternoon last a painful accident oc curred at Coder's dam, about two miles below town, resulting in the death by drowning of two young men, residents of Unlou township, this couuty. It has been the praotioe of a number of young men living north of the Red bank to VtaM the stream Saturday after noons and evenings for the purpose. of bathing, and last Saturday, About noon, Michael Wluters, son of Mr. Frank Winters, an old resident of Union township, aud Mead Haugh, son of Mr. David Haugh, of the same township, aged nineteen and sixteen years respectively, repaired to the stream, and It seems that tbey went into the water below the dam, where it is very deep, and undertook to swim .with the assistance of a plank or board, and getting into deep water went down and were unable to make their escape. An alarm waa given by a brother of Wluters, who was In company with them bat, before assistance could be rendered they were drowned. The body of Haugh was soou recovered but that of Winters was not found until about six o'clock In the evening. Mead Haugh was an only son, the pride of his parents, and their sorrow at bis untimely death Is very great. Winters was the support of aged and dependant parents, and his death deals a double blow, one of sorrow for his unfortunate taking off while yet bo young and full of promise of a long life of usefulness, aud that of taking away the stay of their old age. We deeply sympathize with the parents and friends in their deep affliction. Brookville Republican. A Mortoaqe. In the whole range Lof sacred and profane literature, per haps there is nothing recorded which has such staying qualities as a good healthy mortgage. A mortgage can be depended upon to stick closer than a brother. It has amission to perform which never lets up. Day after day it is right there, nor does the slightest tcudency to slumber impair its vigor in the night. Night and day, on the Sabbath, and at holiday times, without a moment's time for rest aud recrea tion, the biting offspring of its exis tence, Interest, goes on. The seasons may change, days run into weeks, weeks into months, and months may be swallowed up into the gray man of advancing years, but that mortgage stands up in sleepless vigilauce, with the interest, aperennlal stream cease lessly running on. Likea huge night mare eating out the sleep of some rest less slumberer, the unpaid mortgage rears up its gaunt front in perpetual torment to the miserable wight who is held within its pitiless clutches. It holds the poor victims with the relent less grasp of a giant; not one hour of recreation, not a moment's evasion of ita hideous presence. A irenial savaire of uiodifylnga8pect, while the Interest is paid; a very uevu ot hopeless ne st ruction when the payments fail. Exchange, Edward Jenkins, a robust roofer in Cincinnati, was drunken and bru tal.

He tried to be .con tented with occasionally beating her, but at length gave way and stabbed her with a knife, very nearly killing her, She rejoined him before the' wound had entirely healed. A few days ago he struck ber with a poker, and then began to cut her with a knife. She ran, and he chased her, inflicting dreadful wounds whenever he got within reach. She begged for her life, but he did not let her alone until he thought she was dead. Then he fled, bareheaded, bloodstained, and dis ordered in apparel. Policemen chased him until, cornered on a ferryboat, he leaped into the river and was drowned The woman said, on learning of bis death: "Poor Ed. I don't think he ever meant me auy harm."

A young lady subscriber in the country says she has seen in the pa pers that goats eat old fruit cans, wire clothes lines, barrel staves, hoop Iron, broken bottles aud grindstones, and she asks us if it is really true that these animals subsist on such a diet? It is not true. This bill of fare Is slightly exaggerated. A goat will not eat boots as long as there are any old hoop skirts about the premises, and their line of food must be drawn at broken bottles. Probably if a goat was buried eight davs in a coal mine, with no food save a lot of broken bottles, he would de vour them before he would undertake to eat through a solid vein of coal seventy-five feet thick, but it is ex tremely doubtful.
