A new method of saving paper has been in

We have noticed that there is a certain class
of business men who can neither be coaxed or ar
gued into giving an advertisement to their home
papers. It is some satisfaction 10 know that
these are always the chaps who are picked up
by every clap-trap advertising humbug which
comes along, and that the inoucy they speud for
getting their names Into receipt books and on ho
tel cards and like devices, might ns well be
thrown into the fire.
The Market Question. There was a warm
contest over this subject in the Council Chamber
on Tuesday night. The petition of a large nuin
ber of our citizens, asking for a division of the
market, so as to give the people of the West
Ward equal piivilcges with those of the East,
was rejected by a tie vote, 5 for and 5 against
this fair and reasonable request, the Chief Bur
gess being detained at home by sickness. Every
member of the East Ward voted against the pro
position without regard to the rights of the peti
tioners or the justice of their clalins,althougb the
petition was slgucd by a number of East Ward
citizeus. There is no doubt, but that more thau
two thirds of our citizens arc in favor of the
measure, and the time is coming wheu some of
those disinterested patriots who hare been run
ning the machine to suit their own selfish views
will learn that the rights of citizens caunot be
tramnled upon with impunity. There was no
reason whatever why the prayer of the petition
ers should not be granted, and no valid objection
was or cau be made against it. If the citizens of
the West Ward have no rights which the East
Ward Couucilmcn are bound to respect, it is time
they should know it. And if the management
oi the East Ward is to be continued under the
guardianship of the immaculate patriots of the
East, they should also know who those guar
dians arc, that they might make their submission
accordingly. But iherc is one thing they should
and must respect, and that is the common law of
the land if they have no regard for common jus
tice. They may be taught that they have no
more power to authorize a nuisance by packing
a market iu a narrow street ou both sides than
they have to fence up the highway.
Mast of our subscribers have probably forgot
ten that our terms call for tl 50, and $3 00 if
not paid within the year. We deem it proper to
again remind them of that fact. Our paper bills
become due about the first of every month, and
we are not in circustances which enable us to
lay out of our money or the interest, particularly
since our profits have been reduced through our
enlargement. It certainly must be evident to
every one of our subseritiers that we cannot pub
lish a paper as large as those for which are
charged $2 00, ou a better quality of paper, aud
lay out of our money long, as we arc compelled
to pay interest on money standing oMt. We
therefore appeal to all to be punctual In the pay
ment of their subscription, Ac, that wc may be
enabled to discharge our indebtedness. Upon
the punctuality of our patrons depends the fur
ther improvement of the Amtrican. Iu addition
to the advantages deriveU to us through their
punctuality, they would save the sura of fifty
cents per annum. We are at present very much
in need of money. Having sent bills to a majo
rity of those who owe ns, we hope they will te
spoud at once for their own benefit as well as
ours.
Important to School Directors. Tn Har
risburg Telegraph in noticing tbe requirement cf
the law as to the annual publication of a state
ment of the financial transactions and condition
of each school board in tbe State, auuounces that
the Department will withhold the State appropri
ation from all districts that fail to make the nu
nual statement. In order to receive the amount
appropriated by the State to each ccliool district,
the presided of tho respective boards must ap
pear before a justice of the peace and swear or
affirm to the following: That the schools have
been open and iu opeiation, according to the re
quirements of the school law, for the term of not
less than five months duriug the whole year ;
that uo teacher has beeu employed for or had
charge of any of tl.e schools of the district dur
ing the yeai si'eeiDod, who had not at the time a
valid certificate from the county superintendent ;
that the accounts of the district treasurer aud
tax collector for the year specified have been set
tled, and statements in full of the financial ope
rations of the district published, according to
law. This affidavit, made by the president,inut
be countersigned by the secretary, both officers
of the old board, aud together with the "annual
district report," must be forwarded by tbe new
board to tbe county superintendent.
PtKDf town. The growth of this suburb of
Sunbury, has beeu simply wonderful during the
past few years, r.ud is now fast becoming a very
important busiuess part of our town. A large
number of houses have been erected and several
magnificent private residences. A good hotel,
store, blacksmith shop and other manufactories
have been oracled, which give tttt pUoa a busi
ness aspect. The location is one of the most
pleasant, and business men are looking upon it
as the most favorable point for private resi
dences, and all It needs is more enterprising men
who will erect manufactories to keep men em
ployed.
Defracdino the Printer. There Is a class
of individuals who appear to delight iu defraud
ing the printer of his just dues. They order a
paper from the publisher, and promise to pay for
it in a short time after. Tbe publisher in good
faith sends tbe paper with tbe expectation of re
ceiving the promised pay. But after taking it
for a year or more, they ignominiously leave for
parts unknown without notifying the printer,
or making the least effort to pay him. We have
a few pcrsous on our list belonging to this class,
whose names we iuteud publishing beforo long
to preveut imposition upon publishers in places
where they may locate.
Beautiful. Tbe scenery around our boroxL'h
ut present is beautiful ia the extreme. The
deep green foliage on '.he adjacent hills, and the
fields of waving grain, are sights that make
the hearts of the lovers of the beautilul bound
with joy. There are few places that can boast
of equal grandeur of scenery. Many who have
travelled in Europe have prououueed it, as view
ed from certain points, equal to that along the
Rhine. Mr. Forney, a few years ago, in the Fhila.
rr, bestowed upou it tbe highest encomiums.
Through its influence, and the health of the lo
cation, many have made our place their future
homes.
Improvement at Gkoiuiktown. Some half
dozeu new houses arc lu course of erection in
Georgetown, this county. The town is well lo
cated for a business place, with a rich agricultu
ral district around it. A steam saw mill is now
ruu at its full capacity in furnishing lumber for
buildings in the vicinity. A large number of
lots have lately been sold by 1. H. Messier, Esq.,
which will no doubt be occupied wit b good houses
as lapidly as they can be put up. Mauul'aetu
lories, sneh as foundries, machine shops, Ac,
are much needed iu the place. There are but few
better locations for such enterprises thau
Georgetown.
The Cataract Steam Fire Engine Company,

iiist., and will be the guests of Steam Fire Co.,
No. 1. We expect a good parade of the lire de
partment on that day. The city fathers of Lock
Haven aud Sunbury will dine togither.
Ahrestf.d for Larcent. Geo. Oliphaul was
arrested at Northumberland ou Tuesday evening
last, by Coastable Samuel Bright, on a charge of
larceny. George is a good fellow as long as
whiskey is kept at a distance, but when filled
with "tangle-foot' he imagines himself weal
tby, aud frequently makes It a practice to mcd
die with property that dou't beloug to him. His
neighbors are tired of the practice, and consider
it no longer a joke ; hence his misfortune on
Tuesday last.
Tbe Festival of tbe Good Intent Fire Company

Judge Rockefeller being absent from home
ou the day of the laying of the Corner Stone of
the Soldiers' Mouumeut, sent the following let
ter of regret to the committee. The letter cou
vcys a correct idea ol the duty devolved upon the
people of this county in regard to the erection of
a monument in honor of our fallen soldiers. We
hoe to see a united effort made to the effect of a
speedy consummation of this monumental pro
ject. We believe that if a call is made.a ready re
sponse will be had. Few will ncgiect contribut

Messrs. Gcn'I Jno. K. CUmtnt, Sol. Malick; Ktq.,
Mr. II. F. Muhh, Committee.
Gentlemen : Your kind invitation to take
part in the ceremony of to-morrow, laying of the
Corner Stone of the Soldiers' Monument, was re
ceived, and I intended to be present up to this
hour, but came to this plate yesterday to trans
act some important business, and now find that
it is impossible for me to get through and be
with you ou that important occasion.
1 hope it wiu not De long oeiore tue ainouui
necessary to complete lue monument win oc
raised. I do not know of anytnmg mat tne peo
ple of Old Northumberland county could do that
would be more honorable and patriotic than thus
to honor her dead soldiers. We owe it to them,
and should cousider it a duty aud a privilege
aud I do not believe there is a man, woman or
child in tbe coantv wbo would not contribute
something if the proper exertions were made.
Thanking you tor your kind invitation, ana re
gretting my inability to be there, I am sincerely
jours,

Strawbehrt Shortcake. As strawberries
are now iu season, a recipe to make a palatable
dish, known as strawberry shortcake, will not
be umiss. Rub a piece of butler the size of an
egg into a little flour, pour into it two cups pf
sour cream, oue teaspoon of soda and a little
salt. Mix into dough aud roll into cakes about
one-half iuch thick and ten inches in diameter.
Prick with a fork aud bake in a quick oven.
Wheu doue split them opcu with a knife and
spread with uice butter, lay the bottom piece ou
a plate aud cover it with strawberries nearly au
inch deep. It is better to have tbe strawberries
sprinkled w:lh sugar a few hours before they are
put into the cake. Put over this the top of the
cake with the crust side down ard a layer of
strawberries again ; over this lay the bottom
piece of another cake and more berries and put
o:i the top piece right side up. Serve with
cream.
Friuhtful Ri nawat. On the evening of De
coration Day, while Mr. R. D. Bower was out
pleasure driving, uecompuuied by his wife uud
two little children aged about two and seven
years respectively, having in baud a span of fiery
horses, on turning the corner of Liberty aud
Sunbury street, a boy threw a stone aud hit one
one of the horses, causing both to suddenly start,
breaking the swingle-tree. Mr. Bower held them
firmly until tho neck-yoke slipped back on the
tongue which brought the horses agaiust the
bugiry frightening them still more and breaking
the lines. The horses were now beyond control,
and dashed up Sunbury street at a furious rate,
throwing Mr. Bower ont and bringing the buggy
up agaiust a high stump in front of the Douty
House lot, tearing loose from the buggy and
throwing Mrs. Bower aud the children over the
da?her with gteat violence to the pavement.
They were immediately carried into the residence
of Mr. Wm. II. Douty, elose by, where a lare
crowd had gathered. At this time Mr. Bower
appeared upon the bceue apparently none the
worse for his tumble. It was feared, however,
that Mrs. Bower had sustained seri us injuries,
but Dr. E. 8. Robins being called iu reported ber
severely bruised bnt not dangerously hurt. The
child reu escaped with slight bruises, the older
one receiviug also a eut on its arm.
Much credit is due Mr. George Clark who suc
ceeded iu catching the horses when In front of
Clark A Bro's drug and hardware store, and per
sistently hung to them until within a few yards
of where they broke loose from the buggy, thus
very much checking their speed, and no doubt
causing the affair to end without more serious
consequences. Shmiwkiii Herald of last wetk.
Dedication. The dedication of the Sbamokin
Baptist Church, in Sbamokin township, will lake
place on Sunday June 28th. Several emiiicul
ministers will be present to participate in the ce
remonies. The public are cordially iuvlted to
attend.
Fatal Accident. Early Sunday morning,
Henry Richard, of Welsh Hill, lay down upon
the Cutawissa railroad, near Waterman A Bea
ver's flour mill, while intoxicated, and fell
asleep. The engineer of the Empire freight, due
here at 2 a. m., saw a dark object on the track,
but did not discover that It was a man until too
late. Before tbe train could be stopped it ran
over him, breaking a leg, an arm iu two places,
and severely cutting his head. He was caught
by the fire box and dragged sixty-five feet, fear
fully lacerating his back and bruising his face,
which was perfectly black. He was unconscious
nearly all day and died in the evening, ne was
a young, unmarried man, twenty-one years of
age. DiinvilU AmeriraH.
The Miltonian says that R. M. Frick, E-iq.,bas
been Treasurer of the Miltou School Board for
twenty years consecutively, and Cashier of the
Milton Nutiounl Bank for sixteen years." This
marked evidence of the confidence of the people
of Milton is very gratifying. Wc have always
known Mr. Friekto do honor to every position
to which he has been chosen, and his bnsiness
transactions strictly correct.
Fenced Nquarett.
Mr. Editor: In the Philadelphia Evening
Bulletin of the 8th inst.,the following language
is used and the writer thought how fitting it
would apply to onr village :
"Under the present system tho public squares
of Philadelphia are not pleasant places to con
template. Penned in by high, ugly, useless rail
ings, which forbid instead of inviting visitors.
The squares have a shabby neglected village
look about them. Every Philadelphian who
goes to N. Y. city comes home impressed with a
comparison greatly to our disadvantage in this
matter or public squares. There this stupid old
notion of surrounding the squares with railings
have been swept away and the people have free
access. Let tbe railings be abolished and let us
have squares that we can make use of and in
which wc cau take some pride."
Iu addition to the above, it is stated by the
best legal authority we have in the village, that
legally the Council had no authority to enclose
Market Square.
Progress.
We lake the liberty of commenting a little on
the above. What may be true in Philadelphia
in regard to fenced squares does not necessarily
bold good In a town like Sunbury. There are
no cows, or geese, or swina allowed to ruu at
large in Philadelphia, and open squares, there
fore, may be preferable there, but here in Sun
bury where only the luxury of one square can
readily be indulged in a fence not only beauti
fies the square nud the towu but keeps the cows
and gecsu and swlue from defiling the green
sward enclosed by it. In Philadelphia, all around
the public squares Is densely packed with build
ings, and nn open space, wilhont a fence most
certainly Is a luxury there, but Sunbury Isn't
Philadelphia ! About the power of Council to
erect the fence around the square we heard con
siderable at the time of its erection, but the talk
was not backed np by law then, and it is now a
little late In the day to stir that matter again.'
In our opinion "Crab" would be a more suitable
signature to the above than "Progress," as the
tendency of the writer's ideas aro rather back
ward than forward. Editor Dailt.
We fully concur in the comments of our neigh
bor of the Daily, with the exception that "Old
Croaker" would probably have been more appro
priate as his signature than either "Progress" or
"Crab." Philadelphia may be tormented with
its old croakers as well as Sunbury, and it is very
evident that "Progress" has not learned that the
fences around the Parks in Philadelphia s:lll re
main, after an agitation against them for two
years, which is an evidence that tbe citizens gen
erally are opposed to their removal. The idea of
of erecting an - improvement costing some eight
thousand dollars an improvement greatly ad
mired by every stranger that comes to town
one suggestive of enterprise and public spirit,
and in a year or two to tear it down, creating an
other expense, is worse than folly. If "Pro
gress" desires to see our town go back to what
it was a quarter of a century ago, he will be dis
appointed. The days are passed when he could
find no occupation more suitable to his inclina
tions thau sitting in the shade along the river
angling for suckers, or lying iu the shade along
the hills awaiting the approach of 6ome foxy an
imal, for the purpose of securing its scalp and
tbe premium therefor, to produce the jingle
of silver in his pockets. If he desires a return
of his halcyon days we would advise him to em
igrate as they will return no more. There is a
progressive element amoug us that will never al
low the enterprise of the place to retrograde, and
if it is too burdensome for "Progress" to sit upon
the corners indulging iu his usual amount of
"croaking" if he is tired of living in a live
town, and cannot bear to see the rapid increase of
business produced through the enterprise of its
citizeus, it would be to the Interest of business
men if he were to seek a quiet home in the far
West, where improvements are not yet being de
veloped. There iron fences would not appear
like ghosts before bis vbion.
Drowned. On Sunday morning last, about 8
o'clock, Henry F. Dlebcrt of this place, accom
panied by Wm. Patterson and Chas. Giltner, two
young men who came down from Washlngton
ville on Saturday to attend the concert, went out
for a bath in the river. After being in the water
a short time, they concluded to see who of them
could swim across and return. They swam
across and whilo returning, Deibert and Patter
son became exhausted and sauk. Giltuer man
aged to save himself. Both bodies were fouud
about 10 o'clock ; Patterson's about half a mile
above the bridge, near the spot where drowned,
and Diebert's below the bridge, at Riverside. An
inquest was held ou Patterson here, and another
on Deibert in Riverside, he being fouud in Nor
thumberland county. Diebert leaves a wife and
four children to mourn bis sad demise. Pattei
son is a sou of Simon Patterson, of Washington
ville, and is unmarried. Danville Anurit-on.
Two young men, named David Snyder aud
Edward Kisner, both living on Ute Uvaey Hills,
were tried by a Justices' Jury at Tarbutriiie, on
the charge of having disturbed the peaee is that
place, on the evening of the 3vth of May. They
went to the Dividing Ridge School House where
a young man named Wm. Hockley was instruct
ing a class in siugiug, and by their conduct, in
company with others, broke up the class. They
were arrested, aud the jury brought in a verdict
of guilty. The Justice, A. S. Waguer, imposed
a fine of 20 each, and costs, making a bill of
132 48 for each. Rather costly amusement, and
will scarcely bear repeating soon, unless tbe pa
nic ceases. The riugleader has not yet been ar
rested, but will, no doubt, soon be. DnUy of
Wednesday.
The Daily of Tuesday says: "Postmaster
Smith received the following letter on Monday.
It contained no signature. The letter was post
marked "Benton, Pa., June 5" :
"You may notify the Commissioner of North
umberland county that if they sell the people's
laud for back tax, they hud better keep their
buildings well insured for they'll find It a dear
job for them in the loug run, they can depend on
that, and all that is in any way concerned iu the
devilish business or encourages it will fare
alike."
Another Warm no. On Monday morning
last a youug man named Lewis, attempted to
board a freight train, ut the weigh scales, while
moving, fell uuder the traiu, and had one leg
so badly crushed us to require amputation. He
was dragged from under the cars by some
persons who saw him fall, or he would probably
have been killed instantly. Dr. Bobbins of Sha
mokiu, was called in, und is attending him. This
is another waruiug to those who are iu the habit
f jumping on trains while iu motion.
The Potatoe Beetle. Wc find thut this ra
pacious insect has become numerous in this sec
tion of country, and is playing havoc with the
potatoe plants generally. Many of our farmers
are kept busy hunting aud destroying these in
sects to preveut the entire destruetiou of their
crops. The rapid increase of this beetle is noted
iu a western paper as follows :
"The great numbers in which this insect aj
pears will occasion no surprise when it is knowu
ili.it the female deposits as many us 1,000 or
1,200, or even more egtrs at one time on the
leaves of the young potatoe. These eggs are at
tached by one end to the nniler node of the
leaves, ni-ually in clusters of from one to two
dozen. The lurvae hatch iu a few dsys, and feed
on the leaves of Ibe plant for about seventeeu
days, and then descend to the ground, where
they change into pupae ut the surface of the
earth. The perfect beetle appears about ten or
twelve days after the pupae is formed, begins to
pair in about seven days, uud on the fourteenth
day commences to deposit hei eggs again. There
are several broods annually, and the last passes
under the earth and remains there during the
winter."
From the above it will bo seen how prolific
these insects are, aud to what extent they cau
defy the most persist rut efforts of the husband
man to escape their devastations. Many devices
have been contrived, and a variety of destructive
ugeuls employed to check the depredations of
this beetle, but it has thus far successfully resist
ed most remedies. The tedious operation of
knocking it off tbe vine and then killiug it, not
only exhausts the patience of any one who at
tempts to get rid of it in this way, but seldom re
sults iu its disappearance. Infusion of Pari
green, which is a compound of arsenic, copper
aud acetic acid, have proved effective in extirpa
ting the bugs, but if made too strong are apt to
injnre the growing vines, und in fact most reme
dies of this kind are apt to endanger the plants.
Whatever course it may he thought proper to
adopt in dealing with this nuUauce, gathering
or crushing the insects in the naked baud should
be avoided, as thej possess toisonous qualities
when handled, and many instances are reported
of injuries received iu this way.
"Tax-Pater" declines even an attempt to sub
stantiate his assertion that the borough debt was
upwards of f 70,000. His unwarranted attack on
us has recoiled upon his own head, even with the
assistance of his marshalled aid. .
A mammoth black euake has lately been seen
on the new road over the hill, east of Sunbury.
nis snakeship is supposed to be about twelve
feet in length. Two snakes measuring about
six lect each have been captured lately in that

Sbamokin Items. We copy the following
items from the Sbamokin Herald of this week :
Gas Works. The party having charge of the
construction of the gas works is pushing forward
the work with great vigor. The pipes are now
being laid along Sunbury street and next week
will be extended np Shamokln street. By the
first of August houses along these two streets
may be Illuminated by this cheap, safe and bril
liant light.
The Water Co. The work on this improve
ment is rapidly approaching completion. The
pipes have beeu extended along Sbamokin and
Sunbury streets, and are now being put. down
along Market, Arch and Eighth streets. The
parties that have taken this water are greatly
pleased with its excellent qualities. We pre
sume that in a few month every householder
that has the means, will supply himself with
pure water.

Probablt no one disease is the cause of so
much bodily misery and mental nnbappiness,
(and the disease is almost universal among the
American people), as dyspepsia. Its causes are
many and various, lying chiefly in the habit of
our people : the remedy is simple and effectual.
Use Dr. Wishart's Great American Dyspepsia
Pills. They never fail to cure.
It is no wonder that invalids lose faith iu all
specifics, when so many worthless medicines are
advertised for the eure of various diseases ; but
which, wheu tried, arc "found wanting." We
have yet to learn, however, of the first failure of
Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, to cure
coughs, colds, and pulmonary disease.
At thirty-five the average American discovers
that he has an "infernal stomach," and gees
into the hands of the doctors for the remnant of
his life. Prevention is better than cure, but Dr.
Walker's Vinegar Bitters will both curennd
preveHt dyspepsia, diseases of the skin, fiver,
kidneys, and bladder, and all disorders arising
from an "infernal stomach."
