visited and emptied of their contents. In several
Instances poor widows were left eutlre.ly deHsltnte
of thfir inftnt. It la a tillv thRA tliinVM puntint

It would be well enough if every family would

dose of cold lead when they enter upon the
premises. ,

On the evening of the late Borough election

yet there waa much feeling evinced In
reirsrd I
regard to some ideal matt.' Wfcleb caused two
tickets to be brought Into the Held, At a meeting
of Republicans previous to the . election, a ttcltet
waa formed composed of men of both polkldal
parties. The contest for Chief Burmese, however,
create dleaHsfctIo r tha regular
nominee was objected to by a nnmber'of Kepubll
cana on the ground that he waa presented by
pacllai" wbba alajkJattKlaVtak In, our
Borough aGhlrt. .When It became Knows to the
"Court House Ring'' that some little dltsatltfac
tlon existed,1 they had mettthg' tailed of the
Democrats. ' At thl meeting' honest Dcmocrati
were favorable to the ticket formed by the Re
publicans with the exception of Chief Burgess.
Bolomon Mallck, Esq., conservative Democrat,
was selected as the candidate for Burgess against
Mr. Moore. ;A majority being favorable to tbe
ticket Dominated by tbe Republicans, they con
cluded to make no farther nomination. This
proved unsatisfactory to the Ring1 .members pf
the Democracy, wbo wailed. until enough had
left the room to give them a majority, when our
neighbor of the Dmocrat lead oft and had the
resolution' reconsidered, which, of course, was
accomplished with his party, somo ten or twelve
persona formed full ticket, which waa general
ly disapproved of by tha honest Democrats. The
result was, that on the morning of the election,
there were some half doxen tickets In the Held,
.each one. urging the election of those wham they
thought Would best serve their lutereets, regard
less of politics, In the local affairs of the Bo
rough, and the consequence waa considerable
ble scratching of tickets, but no Issues taken on
political grounda. . ,
Our neighbor of the Dunnral appeared some
what enraged because several honest Democrats
who are opposed to the."Rlng;'' were accepted
I by the Republicans for officers, and showed his
spleen on me morning oi mo ejection in an nan
coiumn article In tbe si ape of an anneal to have
tnem defeated. But as the pnrtles wero elected
by ft large majority our neighbor must feel ratber
cheap to and that Ills lufluence did not extend
beyond his own threshhold. Both Mr. Moore I
and Mallck, candidate for Chief Burgess, were
exceHeut mau, and personally very acceptable to
both parties, but bavlcg been run entirely upon
the merits of local issues, Mr. Mallck having the
most popular side, waa elected by some thirty
majority,
A l.AnoB Conflagration at elinsohove.
jOn Wednesday evculng last, about half past !
nliis o cloek, a Bit) broke ont about tha centre of
Bcllnsgrove, Snyder county, which consumed
- Mnle ahVtccit tiouse together with- oleht : of ten
stables. Several Irirgt 'business places anl the
Baptist Church H prey to the-Hfey elements.
The fire was distinctly seen from this place, and
the heavens were beautifully lighted by tbe re
flection of the burning flames. "Tho 0r4 broke
out in a stable, and a high Westerly wind prevail
ing, caused tbe flames to spread over an entire
gquafc yiJi grunt rapidity, ahd Bat having auffl
cleul fire apparatus to check them, tbe buildings
had to be left to the devouring icmenis to run
its course. We are willtout full partlcqlurs, but
learn that tho losses are vely great, which, In
some cases, fall heavily upon hard workiug me
chanics and laboring men of that place. The
fire la supposed to have been the work of incen
diaries. The loss 1 1 estimated at 150,000, most
of which is covered by insurance. ,
During the prevailing of the above Are three
in9plt.lou, characters came to this place and wore
trying to Induce our fire department to go to the
aid of Our neighbors of fielinsgrove, but as they
gave nnsatiafuctory accounla, and told contra
dictory stories, suspicions were aroused that It !
might he an attempt to get our steam fire engine
out of the place Tor no good purpose, and the de
partment declines going. Afterwards one of the
parties Was arrested on suspicion and locked up
In our county Jail, wbllo another took the first
train nod left tftf- The one arrested was re
leased next morning on the promise -of good be
havior aud to leave town.
Tub Scxburt Boom. A uuinber of lumber
men from Wllliamsport, connected with the
8unhury Boom Company, In company with a
number of stockholders from this place inspected
the location and conntrucliou, on Tuesday of last
week. We are informed that they expressed
great satlbfactlou with Us admirable location aud
its substantial construction, and were astonished
at the large amount of work done In such a short
time. We copy the followlug In reference to the
construction of tbe Boom from tbe Oauttc of last
week :
'The jnaln Jiooin commences about one and a
half miles above tbe confluence of the Wet aud
North Branches, nnd cousints of two abutments
and eight pairs of forty feet in length, tweuty
feet in width aud tilteeu to sixteeu feet high, all
well tilled with ktoue. . These run from the Nor
thumberland county side to an island. There
ar-jgpfers above, intended for sheers in running
the logs into the main Boom. The platforms, as
they are called, for the main Buota are very sub
stantial, consisting of heavy white-pine Umbers,
from sixteen to twenty-four Indies thick, and six
feet In width, bolted together with heavy iron
bolts. These In turn are secured to the piers by
one and a fourth iucb cable chain. The whole
being considered one of the most secure Booms
in the West Branch.
Great credit is due Messrs. Fryling, Bowen &
Engel for their Interest and energy iu this enter
prise, securing to our place what may be a very
great benefit, if our people only take advantage
of it. The VYIlllamsport lumbermen may now
go to sleep with a feeling of security as regards
tbeir floating property, (loirs,) ia case of a rud
rise In the river, us the Boom will catch and hold
from one to two hundred millions feet of lugs,
depeudiug upon the stage of water on which they
come. The President, Johu While, Esq , of
Wil lamaport, had the geueral direction aud su
pervision of the enterprise, and the eubslunl'ial
ness of It, together with its early eomutetloa, is
due to bis wlcdom and sagacity. E.4. Lowe, of

The Secretary of the company Informs ns that
the piers are a I completed. The platforms will
all be finished by the latt of this week, ready to
be put in place as soon as tba lea moves off tbe
river. We need only add, let our people take
advantage of tbe great benefits that may result
to our town in tbe erection of more saw-mills and
tha enlargement of the lumber trade, as tha
Boom will afford facilities fur gettiug slock and
holding it far above auy lowa aloug tbe river j
aad let our people who own mlll-eeaU be wise
enough to sell their property at fair prices to
parties wbo will erect mills, and aot drive them
away from our town, thereby depriving them

may be derived therefrom."

- Tna Devil ox tbe Railroad. The devil has
been at work In the capacity of engineer and
fireman according to some of the newtpaper re
ports. Tbe Columbia Cotiranf Is responsible for
the following :
Tb 'Meblill am out on a big rampage" rlong
the lino of the fuunsylvanla railroad. He is
seen at Various places along the road. "labs
loci week, roi the rhiiadelpliia express left
Tyrone atntioo. Ma sataulc niujesty not on the
engine with Sot. UofiiMtler. He looked around
for a moment, then taking the poker from the
fireman, opened the tire door and stirred the fire,
at tbe same time sticking his feet in. He then
sat down. atretcblBR out his immense legs and
bringing his tall around laid It between his cloven
hoot..' Sometimes wings could be seen about hit
shoulders. He- was very particular about th
fire jf sometimes he would put hia head I u the
fire-box and look around, theu throw in his tall,
stirrlug tbe fire at a rapid rate. By this trruc be
had got warmed up, and so bad tbe engineer and
fireman, who were uearly scared to death. the
ongine was making about thirty-five miles an
hour when the devil picked up the oil can, went
out aud oiled the locomotive ia all its puns. He
then rrturued, aud requested Mr. HofiuHstcr to
slack up and let him oil at bridge No. 5; but Mr.
II. told lit in he might get off tho same way be
got on. Tbe eugiu wus then ruuulug at a fear
ful rate of speed, aud Mr. Devil stepped to one
tide and disappeared.
We learn sine- that a phantom train waa seen
in tb. vlcinltv of the Gap. Some nights ago,
DuVld "Wayne, engineer of 477, had stopped lor
tome purpor when a train was heard approach
ing at a rapid rale. Knowing that there was no
train due nt thut hour, schedules were examined
carefully s but the stranger could nut be made
out. At length It came thundering around the
enrve with an immense head-light aud other
equipments. The conductor, II. liell, engineer,
tlreniau and. brakeman all saw and heard the
train coining. The lineman, John K. Newell,
Immediately went buck" wile a llirht aud placed
signal caps upon the ruils. Tbe phantom train
came, making the usual noltc, and lighting up
tbe whole track with Its huge lurid glare, when
in a t inkling th. whole thing disappeared.
Some say it waa old Auios Clcinsou's train the
notorious leader of the dap gxug, who died seve
ral years ago aud that he was aboard swinging
a red light furiously.
John Filbert, engineer of the Lancaster train,
infonni us that when approauhing Pcquea bridge,
some nights ago, be saw tbe devil ou the cow
catcher of his engine. He was runnlug al the
rata of thirty - " hour. lie quickly shut
off the tteaut 4d slackened, up, but could not
see anything tuore of tbe strange object. Tbexe
stories are creating a great deal of comment
among railroad ineu. We give them as told by
us, aud leave the readers to draw their own cou
elusions. i ,- i i- .

Frintd WilmH i-My atMitlAfl baa been called
to a very unjust and Incorrect statement, made
by bme o who dealgnedly mtsrwprwnted tbe
facta In the , forth la th Aawrttt of last
week. It la In reference to tne cate of tin- Com
monwealth vs; Tha Danville, Haaltnondt Wilkes
barr Railroad Company.' This Company was
Indicted in our Court ubnnt a year ago fbr nul- j
dance, In occupying a pnblie road tn Rush town
ship, around the Barrow, oppnlaite Danville,
without giving th people a new road In plnce of
It, which would prove a good and accept hi U
them a the old one. For this they were Indicted,
nd the Court of Northumberland County sus
tained the Indictment, ennsiderlng It quite sensi
ble that the Railroad Company should erect for
the people a new road at once In place of the one
they took poeteselon of. The writer In the Oa
rWU would lead the public tn believe by his state
ment that the Court declared a railroad a nui
sance. The Court did no such thing. It held
the view that the Railroad should hare bul.t a
new road at one for public travel, convenient
and acceptable, and beennse,they did not, for
this they were indicted. Mr. Conily held tbe
lame view, and directed the Indictment. No one
would pretend to say Hint railroads Iu themselves
are nuisauce, but they may do things which are
aa grossly Wrong as Individuals. B.

Ilooflantl's German Hitlers.
A Hitters without Alcohol cr Spirits of any kind.
Is different from all others. It Is composed of
the pure Juices, or Vital PittNCti't.E or Moots,
Hr.iint and Baiixs, (or as medicinally termed F.x
tracts,) the worthless or inert portions of the In
gredients not being used. Therefore In one bot
tle of this Bitters there Is contained nsinnch me
dical virtue as will be round in several gallons of
ordinary mixtures. The Hoots, ftc, used in this
lilt lei s are grown In Germany, their vital princi
ples extracted In thut country hya scientific Che
mist, and forwarded to the manufactory In this
city, where thoy are compounded nnd bottled.
Containing no splr.tnolia lugrediculr, this Kittcia
Is free from the objections tirircd pgahist nil oth
ers: no desire for rti'.iu'.ants can lie induced
from their use ; they cannot make drunkards,
and cannot, uuder any tircuiusiuncca, have any
but a beneficial effect.
IIOOFlAX'N Gr.RMAX TOIC,
Was compounded foi those not inclined to ex
treme bitters, nn 1 Is Intended for use in cases
when smne alcoholic stimulant is required In eo
ncetlon with the tonic properties of tha Hit h i s.
Eneh bottle of the Tonic contains one hot lie of
the Hitters, combined with puree SANTA CRCZ
HUM, and flavored in such a nmnni'r that tin cx
I treme bitterness of the hitlers Is overcome, fcni
I lug a preparation highly agreeable and pleasant

quality. A poor article could he furnished at a
cheaper pTlce, hut is it not better to pay n llitle
moro nnd have n good article I A medicinal pre
paration should contain none but the bust ingre
