and Tuosday last, before James Beard, Esq., and
excited considerable interest. Tbe case referred to
was a prosecution for the disturbance of a religious
meeting in Irish Valley. The defendant! in the
ease were Michael Zimmerman, David Boyer and
Caleb Parsing. The congregation, or part of it, who
are Free Will Baptists, were tired and dissatisfied
with tbeir clergyman, Rev. Lcandor Johnson. A
meeting was called to discus the matter, and quite
a number of persons assembled. Mr. Johnson
wished to take the chair and proceed at once to bu
siness. The defendant! objected and asked for sing
ing and prayers, as usual. Not succeeding, a mo
tion was made to adjourn, and confusion ensued, in
the midst of which the lights were extinguished.'
The Jury was duly charged by Justice Beard, and
In a few hours returned a verdict of guilty against
Boyer and Parsing. The Justice having ruled out
some of the evidence of the defendants, the case goes
up before Judge Jordan, on a certiorari, who will
either affirm the judgment or send back tho cose for
a new trial. The counsel for the prosecution were
Messrs. Hill t Wolverton and S. B. Boyer, Esq. ;
for defendants, Geo. W. Ziegler and Geo. W.
Haupt, Esqrs.

of his nomination, and Invite him to tho conference

ler and Col. John J. Patterson wero also invited.
A short time olnpscd, when tho committco re
turned with Mr. Packer to tho conference and con
gratulated him heartily and pledged him ardent
support.-
Mr. Packer thankod the conferees for the unani
mous nomination so generously tondcrcd, remarking
that it was the proudest day in his life to be selected
as tbe standard bearer of the great Republican
party, and that ho would honestly endeavor to carry
out Its doctrine and principles, and labor for the
success of the tiokot.
Hon. Geo. F. Milior endorsed the nomination of
Mr. Packer In a few vSsaTtl-tiiiioil remarks, and nftor
referring to tho action of Congress on the various
Reconstruction bills, while Andrew Johnson had
opposed tho adoption of tho Itth amendment to tho
Constitution, he congratulated the country that all
but four States wer now represented in Congress ;
he predicted that tbe traitorous President would
soon bo hurled from power ; but entreated tho mem
bers of tbe conference to work from now until the
polls close in October next for the nomineo of the
party.
Col. Patterson also endorsed the nomination of
Mr. Packer most heartily, romarking that it made
little difference as to the candidato himself, so tbatho
was a good and true man. Mr. Pucker had always
been his personal and warm friend, and that ho
would do as much, and perhaps a little more, than
any other single man to secure his election.
Tho Northumberland conferees assured the con-.
ference that Mr. Packer would be endorsed by his
own county with a handsome majority.
The conference then adjourned.

citizen of our adjoining sister county, Northumber
land, returned this week from quite an extended
tour through the Middle and Eastern States. While
en route quite a number of votes were taken on the

Reading to Pottsville Grant, 30 ; Seymour, 24.
If such decisive voles are nut a sure indication
that tbe business men are for Gen. Grant, we are at
a loss to know what other evidence is wanted.
Cartet Stretcher and Tack Driver. Mr.
Juntos Bachelor has purchased the right for the sale
and nse of Brown's Combined Carpet Stretcher and
Tack Drivor. It stretches and tacks a carpet simul
taneously, without stooping, and most effectually.
Tbe tack is placed in a tube at the top of tho handle
of the stretcher, when a short pull at a cord sends
home tbe tack with tbe utmost procision, as tho tack
is necessarily kept in a perpendicular position. A
patent taok drawer is given to each purchaser of
tbe driver.
We first saw this ingenious affair last fall, at the
great Fair at tb American Institute, in New Y'ork,
where it received a premium and exoited no little
attention among housekeepers. Mr. Bachelor is
ready to rooeive orders and supply all who may de
sire to procure this useful implement

manly or bear-ly art of bugging but no one seemed
to dispute th black rogua's qualifications for such
sport. Th young "nagur," as Pat ono named tho
animal while on a bnnt, was very partial to sweet
cakes and milk ; and when a large pail filled with
water was placed before him, he leaped into the
bucket, stern foremost, and showed every Indication
of being partial to the cold water treatment. As
long as drop of water remained in the pail, bruin
remained in statu quo. The animal was convoyed

female oomplaints oan long be suffered to run on
without involving th general boaltb of lh individ
ual, and er long producing permanent sickness and
prematura deoliue. Nor is it pleasant to oonault a
physioian for the relief of these various dalioate af
fections, and only upon the most urgent necessity
will a true woman so far sacrifice hor greatest oharui
as to dtfthis. The sex will then thank na for nlaoinir
in Ihoir hands simple specifics which will be found
cflioacious In relieving and ouring almost every on
of thos troubles. me complaints peouliar to th sex.'
JUi.mboi.d's Extract or Bccuti. Hundreds suf
fer on in silence, and bund redsof others apply vaiuly
to druggists and doctors, who merely tnnlalis thaw
with the hop of a euro or apply remedies which
make them worso. 1 would not wish to assort any
thing that would do Injustice to the affliotod, but I
am obliged to say that ulthougb it may be produoed
from excessive exhaustion of tho powers of life, by
laborious employment, unwhulosouio air and food
profuso menstruation, tho use of tea and onflea an.i
! frequent childbirth, it is faroltcnor caused by direct
irritation, nppiieu to vue mucuu memorane of tbe
vagina itself.
when reviowing tho causes of these distressing
complaints, it is most painful tu ountempluto the
ationdnnt evils consequent upon them, it is but
siniplo justice to the subject to cnumernto a low of
the many additional causes which so largely a (Toot
tho lite, health, and happiness of woman in all class
es of society, and which, consequently, affect more
or less directly, the welfare of the eTitiro human
family. Tho mania that exists for precocious educa
tion and marriage, causes the years that nature
designed for corporeal duvciopuient to bo wasted
and. perverted in the restraints of dress, the early
confinement of school, nnd especially in the un
healthy excitement ot the ball-room. Thus, with
the body half-clothed, and.the mind unduly excited
bv pleasure, norvcrtinc? in inidniifht revel tbe hours
designed by nature for sleep and rest, th work of
destruction is halt' accomplished. '
In consequence of this early strain upon her sys
tem, unnecessary cllort is required by tb delioato
votary to retain her situation in school at a later
day, thus aggravating tho evil. When one exoite
ment is over, unolbor in prospective kcops tho mind
mirbidly sensitive to impression, while tho now con
stint restraint of fashionable dress, absolutely' for
bidding the excrciso indispensable to the attainment
nnd rctontion of organic health and strength ; the
exposuro to night air ; the sudden change ol temper
ature; tho completo prostration produced by exces-
sivo dancing, must, ol necessity, produce ilieir legiti
mate eflent. At last, an oarly marriage caps the
climax of misery, and tho unfortunate olio, hitherto
so utterly regardless of tho plain dictates and re
monstrances of her delicate nature, becomes an
unwilling subject of medical treatment. This is but
a truthful pioturo of the experience of thor.sundj of
our young women.
Long before the ability to exerciso the futotinns cf
the generative organs, thoy require an education ot
their peculiar nervous system, composed of what is
called the ti.-eue. which is, in common with the fe
male broast nnd lips, evidently under the control of
mental emotions nnd associations at an early period
of life; and, as we shall subsequently sue, these
emotions, when excessivo, lend, long before piibenty,
to habits which sap the very life of their victims ere
nature has self eompleted their development.
