fine a Billiard Saloon as can be found any

Saloon is through the Hall of the house.
Christie still makes the keeping of Glantz's
celebrated lager, the best in the market by all
odds, a speciality, and "Old Billy," himself,
never handled an army of Teutons, on French
Soil, with more grace and effect than does
Christy a host of tumblers in answer to the
demands of his numerous customers. Christie
gives personal attention to the arrangements
for the accommodation of his customers, and,
of course, they arc perfect.

L1K1EI1AL. GIFT.
Rev. Dr. Saunders of Philadelphia,
already well known by frequent manifes
tations of liberality and patrioism, has
presented to the Presbyterians of the
city SloO.000 for the purpose of found
ing a public hofpital in which the afflicted
will Ik; received and attended "without dis
tinction on account of creed, country or col
or." It will probably be located on the
grounds occupied by the Saunders College, in
West Philadelphia, a most beautiful ; and
;pp! ;; riate spot, containing over three
:"R:. The institution will be known as the
'Yv.unders Presbyterian Hospital," and it
will 1-e a tao.-t noble monument to the bcuevo-
kiij and virtues of its founder.
A?jG:il the only evidences of the arrival
of tl.o ''glorious 4th" hereabouts, on Tues
day, wt-re the raising of an elegant specimen
of the ".-'tars and Stripes," by friend Allen
!er of the Stroudsburg Hou-c, the snapping
of crackers under the superintendence of the
1 nf our borough, big and little, and the
parade of the Naj'-Aug's. The Pic-Nic, at
i'idiers Island, proved a complete success
a in : e crowd gathering from both town and
ountry. The d ry was lowcry, but all the
ire pleasant for that. The whole concluded
with on-j of the heaviest dashes of rain that
has fallen this season. As this section of
niuii'y had no fire works to let off, the rain
proved no draw-back to pleasures of the day.
A Hearse. Mr. Thomas Bany,
iM'i-. rtrdxr of Tannersville, in this county,
has rei- ni!y provided himself with a hearse
v. hieh fur appropriateness- of design and
1 canity of finish can hardly be excelled.
While the hearse reflects credit upon the
Klicrality of Mr. B., it also bears testimony
to the .'kill of our home Mechanics. The
hearse wis built at the factory of Mr. Win.
Huntsman, aud is a fine specimen of excel
lent workmanship. The painting and trim
ming was done at the establishment of Mr.
aicntiiic Ivautz. and is as neat as exper
ience and skill could make it. The vehicle
reflects credit upon owner, upon builder, up
on painter, and uion our town for the pos
Fe.sion of such skillful mechanics.
'Mac PIc-Xie held at Fisher's Island, on
the 4thf July, for the benefit of the M. E.
Parsonage at Spragueville, proved a decided
success, fth financially and sociallv. The
day dawned bright and beautiful, and, ow
ing to the fact that no other attractions were
to take place in this neighborhood, a very
large number were in attendance, and all
feerneJ to enjoy themselves hugely. By
special request, Mr. Simon G. Throop, Esq.,
of our borough, made a few impromptu and
very appropriate remarks, which were well
received. Early in the day the members of
Nay-Aug Fire Company were very busy
making arrangements, and soon they were
seen marching toward the depot, to tfte
music of a very efficient drum corps, enroute
to the pic-nic grounds. Towards evening a
stomi arose, which had the effect of scatter
ing the crowd in a promiscuous manner.
Aside from this the day was very pleasantly
spent by all who participated in the exerci
ses, and a return of a similar event will be
anxiously awaited. Just here it might be
proper to state, that the Nay-Aug's are
deserving of very great credit, inasmuch as
they were the instigators of the only patriotic
d.-pl:iy witrcssod I'j.on our streets on the
'V'oriou.s 4th." Jiig may they live.
African Wines. It is not generally
known that Cape Colony produced the most
delicious wines grown on the face of the earth.
A cargo received as a remittance by our
neighbors Dr. J. C. Aver & Co., contains
several varieties raised there, among which
the Constancia commands the highest price of
any wine in the world. Almost the entire
crop of it is consumed in the palaces of
Europe, this rare exception being sent to
them in exchange for their medicines, which
have long been the staple remedies of South
Africa. Boston Journal. ,
Free Tuition at the Lehigh University.
Bethlehem, July 3. By the addi
tional liberality of the Hon. Asa Packer,
fouoder of the Lehigh University, the
board of trustees were enabled at their
meetiojr, to day, to declare the tuition in
the institute hereafter free. They also
created two new professorships, one of
mining and metallurgy and the other of
civil and mechanical engineering. Ihese

Peach Train.
The Wiliniington and Beading Bail-
road Company are having a number of
cars made to be used solely for conveying
peachc3 over their road. Each car will
be well ventilated so as to allow a free
circulation of air, will contain three rows
of shelves, and will be large enough to
hold five hundred baskets of peaches.
These cars will constitute a special train,
which will be run at a rapid rate through
to Heading each night. The peaches will
be loaded at Dover, Del., the same day
they are plucked from the trees, and ship
ped that night, the peaches reaching Bead
ing early the next morning in the origi
nal baskets. Our citizens will thus be
treated each morning in the week during
the peach season, with ripe, luscious
peaches direct from the Delaware or
chards. The peaches heretofore procured
in boxes, via Philadelphia, are intended
for distant markets and gathered from the
trees before the fruit is ripe. When the
new arrangement takes effect the citizens
of Beading, will have better peaches than
they ever had at less than half the cost
paid heretofore. The peaches that can
not be used in Beading and vicinity will
be shipped from here in the peach cars
to various points north and south, over
the Reading Boad and branches and con
necting lines to Alleutown, Pottsvillc,
Willianisport, Ilarrisburg, &c. These
cars are built at considerable expense,
and are an evidence of the enterprise of
the Wilmington & Beading Bailroad Com
pany. Reading Gazette and Democrat.

Slanderers would do well to persue the
following act passed by the Legislature,
as it may save them "coming to grief :"
Sec. 1. An action may be maintained
by a female, whether married or single,
to recover for words hereafter spoken im
puting unchastity to her, and it shall not
be necessary to prove special damages in
order to maintain such action. In such
actions a married woman may sue alone,
and any recovery therein shall be her sole
and separate property.
. Sec. 2. This act shall take effect immediately.

It may not be known to everybody that
the United States i3 engaged in a war
with a foreign power. The Coreans, a
race of semi barbarians, inhabiting a
peninsula in the Yellow Sea, some time
ago had the audacity to fire upon the
American squadron in their waters. The
Coreans not making any apology or offer
of reparation for this outrage, Commodore
Bogers, commanding the American
squadron, thought fit to avenge the
insulted dignity of his country by punish
ing the barbarians. The result was a
very severe handling of the Coreans.
Five of their forts and a great quantity
of arms were captured. Over two hun
dred of the natives are reported to have
been killed. .The encounter developed
the fact that J. he Coreans have an army
of eleven thousand men, together with
a naval force. They made a vigorous
resistance, and although well armed were
unable to cope with the superior weapons
of the Americans. Three of the latter
were killed in the fight, among them
Lieut. McGee, of Louisville, Kentucky.

annual interest on the Debt has been re
duced nearly Thirteen Millions of Dollars
since the present Administration took the

just closed.
The latest reports from Eastern and
Central Wisconsin, Eastern and Cen

and all parts of Illinois indicate that the
crop prospects were never better. In a
few localities the wheat crop is suffering

Consin and the great wheat belt in Min
nesota do not give so favorable a view.
In the latter State the yield will be far
below the average'.

In California there are eighteen or
twenty native species of birds, more or
le?s noted as song sters, and some of th
species have many local varieties. The
erroneous notion that the State was mea

singing birds, arose from the fact that the
early routes where few birds remain in
the long dry season.

The German losses : The official lists
of the killed and wounded on the German
side during the war have now been made
up at Berlin, as far as relates to the army
of the late North German Bund and the
Baden division. The number given of
killed in action is 13,900, or total casual
ties, without the missing, 152,884. But
to these will have to be added at least
20,000 more of Bavariana and Wurtera
bergers, so that the Germans altogether
may be considered to have lost 175,000,
that is, more than 8 times as many as
Prussia lost in 18GG, when the casualties
did not quite reach 20,000. The ex
penditure of the war is in still greater
proportion to that of 186G, owing to its
long duration. The latter was returned
at 124,000,000 thalers. The present
war has been rudely estimated at Berlin
at amounts varying from $600,000,000
to 8750,000,000.
THE SALE of PATENT MEDICINES
lias in no other country reached the enormous
proportions it has assumed in the United estates.
This is owing to the vast extent of territory
. .i .i ? r 1 - !
anu ine comparative imnncss oi popuiauun,
which creates the necessity for some reliable
remedy, that can be applied at once in the ab
sence of professional medical aid.
Misiiler's Herb Bitteiu has for over ten
years been regarded as
T!ic Great Slouselioltl Remedy,
and i3 relied on in every emergency by thous
anda of families in every section of the country
It is not a fancy drink, composed of bad whis
ky, flavored with aromatics, to tickle the palate
and minister to a depraved appetite, but is
carefully and scientifically prepared compound
extract of Roots, Herbs and Barks, possessing
great medicinal virtue. Its rare combination
presents the most afFectual remedy yet discov
ered for all diseases of the Stomach, Liver,
Kidneys and Bowels. Sold everywhere at One
Dollar per Bottle. Lju,.v t-lm
The "Pain Killer" may justly be styled the
great medicine of the world, for there is no re
gion of the globe into which it has not found
its way, and been largely used and highly
prized. Moreover, there is no claim to which
it has not proved to be well adapted for the
cure of a considerable variety of diseases ; it is
a speedy and safe remedy for burns, scalds, cuts,
bruises, wounds and various other injuries, as
well an for dysentery, diarrhoea and bowel com
plaints generally, it is admirably suited for
everv race of men on the face of the globe.
It is a very signiliccnt fact, that notwithstand
ing the long period of years that the "Pain
Killer" has been before the world, it has never
lost one whit of its popularity, but, on the
contrarv, the call for it has 6teadily increased
from its first discovery, and at no previous tima
nas ine aciuanu lor u oecn so great, or me
quantity made been so large, as it is to-day.
Another significant fact is, that nowhere has
the Pain Killer ever been in higher repute, or
been more generally used by families and indi
viduals, than it has been here at home, where
it was first discovered and introduced. That
the Pain Killer will continue to be, what we
have styled it the great medicine of the world
there cannot be the shadow of a doubt. Pro
