The insurance money on the house of Mr. Samuel Bloom, which was damaged by fire last month, was adjusted last week by Jacob Shipman, agent Tor the Tork Insurance Compa ny.

Narrow Escape. At the funeral of Mrs. Elsha Kline, of l"pjer Augusta township, on Thursday last, a natrow escape of an accident was made. As the funeral procession was pass ing through a piece of woods on the road to Kline's Grove graveyard, a pine tree was blown down across the road by a gale of wind, within few feet of Mr. Samuel Obcrdorfs wagon. Had the tree struck the wagon a serious accident would no doubt have occurred. Strawberries. The prospect of a fins crop of this delicious fruit two weeks since was most fa- varable, but the drouth has reduced the Crop fully oue half. Onr market has been almost ex clusively supplied with fruit raised at home, which is much superior to the best brought from abroad. But the prices are too high. At Wash ington, Baltimore aud other cities, 15 ceuts is a good average price. Here il rates over 20. The sales in market the past week was 20 cents per quart. Our dealers, however, who have a mo nopoly of Mr. Youngman's berries charge 25 cts. Tub Potato Bro. There is a general com plaint of the ravages of this insect. The earliest potatoes seem least affected. Paris green is said to be an excellent remedy, but one of the surest and 1ett remedies is to bend the viues over a coal hod or bucket, and shake or tap the vines with a stick, so that the bugs fall into the vessel. In this way one person cau go over an acre a day and gather ten times as many as by picking tbem oft by hand.

The Altoona Tribune (where they have plenlf of bed bugs) gives the following method for kill'mtf these harmless creatures : new way to get r,id of bed bugs has been disco vexed whkb wc gladly puMisu Cor tlw benefit ol the Altoona people who uxe auuoycd by these pests. Jt is nothing but strong solution of common salt. The bugs, after drinking fredf, get thirsty and go off for water you can then move your bed qulftly into another room during their absence, and ou tlwir return they become di!rncted with life and or.niiint oiiUi'l'. Tiie Rowing Match. The rowing match an nounced last week, cantc off ou last Friday e" ening, and created considerable interest. Awut the time set for the match, a large numbf"" f c' tizens repaired to the river to witness -lie sport. About 7 o'clock the river bank waf lined witu people and carriages. The JuiKcs Martin Walls, Major Dewart, Judge Whit "cr, and J. E. Eichholtz, Umpire, were prorltly on hand. Five boats entered, and position were taken by lot. Peter Krohn secured tic first choice, and took his position on the catside. James Royc came next, followed by Jacob Senseubacb, E. B. Wcstfall, and Philip Tntt. The umpire aud Martin Walls were iu boat, half a mile from tho starting point, ucr Bird's Island. At a sig ual given the race commenced, and the umpire's boat was reached U the following order. First, well ahead, Peter Krohu ; next.Phillp Trutt.and closely followitij James Roy, E. B. Wcstfall and Jacob Sensciiiaeh. They passed the umpires boat, nnd palling reached the starting point iu the same order. As they ucared the starting loiut, the crowd on the banks gave vent to their feelings by vociferous cheering. This match originated with Mr. E. B. West fall and Mr. Jacob Scnscnbach, who arc desirous of bringing into notice the beautiful basin of wa ter to amateurs in row ing, to induce occasional matches among those fond of the sport. Wc are happy to note their successful experiment, and wc learn that arrangements arc already beiu made to orgauize a regular club to exercise iu the athletic sport. They will make arrange ments to invite rowers from abroad to test the 6pecd of their craft upon the waters of the Sus quehanna river at this place. We are satisfied that wheu the character of our beautiful basin becomes known to sportsmen, few will seek other places less attractive. The Visitino Firemen. Sunbury was the scene of another pleasant gala day on Saturday last. As was stated in our last issue, the Cata ract Fire Company of Lock Haven, together with the Mayor, members of the bar and those of the press, arrived at this place about 11 o'clock a. m., on their return from an excursion to Allen town, Easton and Danville. All the preliminary arrangements for a proper reception on the part of our fire department, Burgess and Council hav ing been perfected, as the train stopped at the depot a hearty welcome was extender. A pro cession was formed with the firemeu iu advance accompanied by the Lock naven nnd Sunbury Bands, and the dignitaries of the two towns.and citizens, in carriages. A parade then took place through the principal streets of the town, and then proceeded to the Park, on Market Square, w here a reception speech was made by Win. A. Sober, Esq., extending a hearty welcome to the visitors on the pait of its citizens, firemen and municipal officers. IDs speech was received w ith great applause. S. R. Pealc, Esq.. of Lock Ha ven, who was once a Sunbury boy, and who spent many of his childhood's happy days among us, then resiKwdcd in behalf of the visitors. He said he was present at the planting of the trees which now shade our Park, and referred to his youthful days in our town, and Its liberal heart ed people that the spot was hallowed to his heart was near and dear to him ; and kuowing the generosity of its citizens, he was glad to once more mingle with them for a short time in company w ith gentlemen of the highest resjiec tability of his adopted home, that they might leani by experience the hospitality of Sunlmry, and would accept the invitation extended to the Cataract Fire Company, and the municipal offi cers aud citizens of the city of Lock Haven. The Cataract Company were the guests of the Sunbury Steam Engine Company, No. 1, anil were handsomely entertained at the Clement nonsc, and Washington House. In the after noon, by invitation, the firemen visited the Good Intent Hook and Ladder House, where they met with another handsome reception. They were received with a neat speech by Gen. J. K. Cle ment, which was rc?Hnded to by Mr. Hippie on behalf of the Cataract boys. The Chief BurgcfS, Sol. Malick, spoke in behalf of the Washington Company, regretting that they had no house in which they could give them an evidence of their appreciation by a proper reception. At the Good luteut house the firemen became properly acquainted with each other, and a so sial time was Riwmt together until the arrival of the 4 o'clock train, when the guests departed for home. The members of the bar of Lock Haven were handsomely entertained at the Central Hotel by number of the members of the bar of this place. Geo. Hill, Esq., presided. Toasts were drank and responded to by II. T. Bcardsly. S. R. Peall and W. II. Hippie, Esqrs., of Lock Haven, and Geo. ITill, Jno. K. Clement and T. H. B. Kase, Esqrs., of the Suubury Bar. We feel confident that the hospitality of our borough fathers, and the firemen was highly ap preciated by the visitors, and we were happy to notice the good feeling that prevailed during their Slav, as it left a favorable impressiou upon all, as they remarked, that their reception here was the most generous along their route. e hope that they will soon psy us another visit, and become better acquainted with our citizens and their hospitality. The gates of the enclosure of the Park In Mar ket Square are still stauding open, and the place has become the resort of many of the cattle owned within the limits of our borough. This no doubt is a tomfortable anangement for the cows, as the beautiful shade trees found there afford them ample protection against the summer's heat, but it doesn't meet with the approbation of nine tcnths of the people of the place. A few even ings ago we visited the Park,and counted 15 cows which had made a dormitory of the concern. As we passed along, one becoming disturbed. arose from its slumbers, stretched itself, aud wagged its tail.undoubtcdly in approbation of the course of our boroutrh council. The Purk was iuleuded to be a place of beauty, nud at a heavy expense was transformed from a goose pond Into, it seems, a cattle yard. This Spring the enclo sure promised much. The grass which had been sown the year previous, sprung up vigoroinIy. Flowers and tree were set out, and all interest ed expected to see them growing there in all their inviting beauty. But how is it now I Through the stupid policy of some one, the Park has been turned into a grazing place, the trees have been made scratcing posts for the cut tle, and Instead of the fragrant cowslip wc have the other kind. How long must the good people of the place endure this thing! The cats pass in full view of our Park ; the citizen who don t feel the effects of this ciicumstance is a queer fellow. An Acciint at Watsontown. On Saturday lai-t Mr. John Ellis, of Turbutville, und mail carrier betweeu Comly and Watsontown, was driving through the main street Iu the latter place, and was met by runaway horses attached to a buggy belonging to Mr. Gillespie, ol Tur butville, and in attempting to turn his team a.-ide was run into and thrown from his warou and his left broken at the thigh. He was carried into a .neighboring house and Ir. Treou und Khiiads called in who attended to his wounds. One of the horses iM-longiug to Mr. Gillespie hud his leg broken below the knee, and was killed to end his suffering. The buggy, which was valued ut $.VK), was broken t pieces, and the mail wuron of Mr. Ellis considerably damaged. Much sympathy is elicited foi Mr. Ellis as he is poor and a man of excellent character und an accom modating official. Don't feed your turkeys ou jiotato bugs, if yon would enjoy the national Christmas dinner. The Charlestowp J'rtu says; A lady living a few miles from Clurlestown, exasperated by the depredations of bugs upon her potato virus, and fient ou exterminating them, turned loose in her patch twenty-seven turkeys. Many bugs were "surrounded" by the agile turks, but in less than an hour seventeen of the attacking party were stone dead upon the field the bugs having cut their way out. Tic turks were active, mad! the charge heroically, but badu't sand enough lu their gizzard?. Personal. We regret our absence from our sanctum on Saturday last, to extend the baud of friendship to C. F. Leidy, Esq., of the Lock Haven Il'iuhlUa.i, and B, R. Somes, Esq., or the Muhtour American. Having becu tuga jed at ths time in some important political inatteis of the county we missed the pleasure of their call. We hope you will call again soou wheu we are at onr post. t is singular how some editors can afford to take tours to the west and to watcrlug places. Tbcy certaiuly cannot ho panic stricken, We hope our turn will come next, f we should he disappointed, we certainly wish to he tho pastor j of a rich congregation for a few moths during the rummer enon. J We have frequently heard the remarks of strangers who were traveling in inecaio ." this place and Northumberland, in reference to Bird's Island, as an eligible locat ion for the es tablishment of cotton factories and lumber mills. The Island is about a quarter of a mile wide, and exteuds over a mile northward in the North Branch of the Susquehanna, river, imme diately between Sunbury and Northumberland. Its banks are high and safe against inundation. The ground Is nearly level, and its shores are edged with groves of forest trees. It can be ap proached with steamboats or any other craft. The P. & E. R. R. crosses at the lower part with ample room for auy number of sidings. This is land is beyoud a doubt the most desirable place along the river for the purpose alluded to. We arc informed that a portion of it will soon be laid out in lots, and that several have already been engaged whereon private dwellings will be erect ed. We hope the project will not fail, and while its centre is being built up with dwellings, its banks will be built up with manufactories. This island in connection with the facilities for transportation of Sunbury, is destined at no very remote day, to become a large manufacturing centre. Hero among our mountains of coal, iron and limestone, exist fortunes for future invest ments. Articles of manufacture can be produced at less cost than elsewhere, and with Northum berland laying immediately to the west with her beautiful scenery and natural advantages, the three locations being connected with bridges, will form a central city in the Keystone State unequalled in wealth, health and beauty. The festival of the Sunbury Cornet Baud, which closed on Saturday last, was very success ful, as the Band realized about four hundred dollars. This is a deserved compliment to the Band, aud shows the favor iu which they are held by our citizens. We never before had an association of musical talent in our place which promised so much. We have always believed that the material for the formation of a good Band was among us, and only needed an efficient leader to dcvelope and coufirm the fact. Since Mr. Kirchnerhas become the leader of our Band, who is probably one of the best leaders iu the State, its improvement has been almost a mira racle. The citizens of the place should now give it their heartiest support. Don't let it complain that any reasonable demand has not been grant ed. Wc have a fire department of which we cau well boast, established through the energy of our young men and the enterprise of our citizens a Park beautifully enclosed in the centre of our town which will soon contain our Soldiers' Mon umentall the evideuces of a growing and pros perous town, let us in addition to all this have a Band equal to iniy in the Sato. It Is here in em bryo, let us assist in its full developement. At the festival several contests tock place be tweeu different parties, for which the ladies de serve great credit iu giving interest to the mat ter. The pig between Dr. Jeffries and F. Bright, was voted to Dr. Jeffries. The cake between L. T. Kohrbach and Lem Shipman, was voted to Kohrbarli. A cake between Oliver Drumheller and Fratik Cooper, was won by the latter gen tlemar., aud brought a high price. The cake be tween '.he foremen of the different fire compa nies, was decided in favor or Major Cadwallader of steamer No. 1. The appeal or the Mexcantile Appraiser, on Monday last, was more largely attended than any previous appeal ever held in this county. This was mainly owing to the Mercantile Ap praiser, who, it is alleged, had a proueness Tor making the assessments outrageously high. There was much dissatisfaction expressed against the appraiser. When Mr. Druekemillcr was appointed, wc then stated our disapproval of the appointment, and that we considered it the worst appointment that could have been made. Wc have not yet seen anything to change that oplniop, nnd we wonld not be surprised if many merchants ia the conuty wonld agree with us now. Jt is a good lesson, however, to county Commissioners, as it teaches them the necessity of inquiring into the character and qualifications of men before appointing them to important po sitions, and to choose none except those who come up to the standard required by Jeffersou ''Is he honest, Is he capable." Peak Favii.t. At the Opera House on Satur day evening, June 27th, the origiual Peak Fami ly will give one entertainment only, introducing several new faces, nnd an entirely new perform ance. The company is a splendid oue, having two Comedians and a boy artist. After an Olio, the entire company will appear in that celebrat ed extravaganza entitled : "The Belles of the Kitchen" which has made the Vukes Family so famous. Many uoticcs given upon the perform ance of this specialty say that the Peak Family are creating a sensation wherever they appear with the above specialty. Reserved seats can be obtained at C. S. Ilazeltine's Book Store, with out extra charge, where a diagram may be seen. Meeting of the Repcblicas Standing Com vitt'e. The Republican Standing Committee of Northumberland County, met in the Court House, in Sunbury, on Saturday last, pursuant to call. Em'l Wilvert, Chairman, presiding, and L. M. Morton, Secretary. The different dis tricts ware well represented by the members of the Committee. On motion, Col. Alex. Cald well, of Shamokiu borough, was elected by ac clamation Representative Delegate to the next State Convention, in addition to the Hon. R. M. Frick of Milton, who was appoimed by the last county Convention. On motion, Resolved, That Saturday, Septem ber 19th, he fixed upon for holding the delegate election, and the following Tuesday, September 22d, as the time for the nominating County Con vention. The ejectment suit or Dull, Tryou aud others against CampWll, Tower and others, was called np in the Columbia County Court last week, be fore Judge Ellwell. The suits involve directly the title to a large and valuable tract of coal lands in Schuylkill county, embracing 2800 acres, worth in the market, perhaps oue million and a half of dollars. The actual defendant in the c ise is the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Company, which has acquired the hinds in questiou. Both sides were represented by counsel of unu sual eminence. For the plaintiff appeared Frank Hughes, John W. Ryan, Senator Bechtal, or Pottsville, together with Hon. Jeremiah S. Black ; while Tor the defuse the counsel were Judge Woodwurd, Hon. Charles R. Buckalew and S. P. Wolverton. of Sunbury. I he cause was continued until next October term. We aie always ready to make amends when we are in the wrong. We would therefore state we were strictly in error when we stated last week that our neighbor J. E. Eichholtz wonld not so near water. He did venture on the river in a boat, but says it was a severe trial ; that he Mt shaky, and that it took considerable beer to neutralize llie effects It had npon his uerves. He also thinks that by gradual practice on water, will prepare his system tor a trip up salt liver this coming fall. A ekw days ago, as Mr. Thomas Reber, or Lew'ubnrg, was walking in Northumberland county, on the rami or Benjamine Rine, he pick ed up a rew very large teeth belonging, apparent ly, to some extinct species of animals. One measured inches in length. Others are near ly the same size. Iu diameter they are at places over an inch. Mr. Rcber showed the curiosities to some of the profes6o's or the University, who believe them to have belonged to some species or grass feediug animals, hundreds of years extinct. They are much different from the teeth of the mastodon. Siuce tile first teeth were found, Mr. Reber and Prof. James visited the spot and found a portion or the jaw bone and nine more teeth, which make fourteen In all. It is the in tention to send them to un institution in Phila delphia for Inspection. LeuitbHrg Journal. Ikon Weimjjno. Last Friday evculng being the first anniversary or the wedding of Mr. A. G. Goodwill and Pet Klace, several of their friends g,rt up a surprise for them in the way or un iron wedding. It proved to be a complete surprise to the happy pair and a source or great enjoyment to all present as well as to a teir spectators apross p(e way, who sccined to enjoy it as much as those participating. Many era the presents, all made of iron pots, pans, kettles and cans. What can bind a fellow to home closer or make him long to be there more than a waffle Iron, (if properly used,) aud what will drive a fellow away quicker thau a poker (if Improperly nscd?( There were two of he latter presented to Mrs. (L,snd we are concerned, about Toney's urelfure. May e.vh succeeding year of their wedded lire foe prpwred with blessings multiplied. amok in Is taking a flying trip to Shamokiu a few days ago, we were impressed with the beauty of the scenery along the Shamokin Valley R. R. The train being in charge of that handsome and ac commodating conductor, D. E. Schuster, we felt perfectly safe, as we knew him to be one of the most reliable employees on the road, and one who understands making passengers feel com fortable and pleasant. Soon after leaving Sun bury, we noticed the improvements being made by the farmers along the Shamokin Creek. Their farms look clean, and ore supplied with good substantial barns and Cue dwellings their fields adorned with a luxuriant growth of waving grain aud purple-headed clover. Arriving at Snydcrtown, we fouud that improvements iu the way or building comrortablc dwellings was one or the maiu features of that thriving borough. At Reed's station, ths residence of our esteemed frieud Sol. Martz, Esq., has also been much changed within a few years, and has become one of the priucipal stations for the exchange of passengers. Approaching tho weigh scales, wc noticed several buildings in course of erection, a neat office belonging to tho Mineral R.R. it Min ing Co., (uoled for containing a number of fine young business men as clerks,) which ships more coal than any other in the region. Mr. R. A: Fisher, Esq., we understand, is at present filling the position of principal clerk, with general satis faction. Mr. Fisher is a man of excellent busi ness qualifications, and labors hard for the inte rests of his employers. We also got a glimpse of that prince of landlords in the Shamokin Val ley, Mr. Jesse Hensyl, who knows how to keep a hotel, and make guests happy at his Mountain House. He is far too good a man to be a Demo crat. From the scales to Shamokin the moun tain air and scenery is perfectly delightful, and as the train passed the collieries the noises pro duced on the breakers, gave evidence that the coal business had not altogether ceased. The borough of Shamokin is improving rapidly, and already the town is beginning to spread over the adjacent hills. The water works lately in troduced into the town gives . general satisfac tion, and soon gas will extend to all its streets, when wc shall not be surprised if the town will change from its incorporation as a borough, aud put on that or city.

The Centennial of rne Discovert of Oxt oen. A few evenings ago a number of gentle men assembled at the residence of J. Priestley, M. D., to confer with Dr. n. Carrington Bolton, of the city of New York, who came bore to make the necessary arrangements for the proposed meeting of Chemists at this place, on the first of August. The Doctor was kindly welcomed, and after a preliminary organization had been effected, pro ceeded to state the object he had in view In vi siting the place. He is an active member of the committee in New York, nnd desired, in com mon with his colleagues, that their intentions of celebrating the hundredth anniversary of Oxy gen at the grave or Dr. Priestly, the discoverer, should meet with a cordial welcome from the local population. He read a call, bearing the names or many or the most distinguished che mists and scientific men iu the United States and Canada, a large proportion or whom may be expected to be here an.l take part in the cere monies. In resjKinse to the desires or the Dr. und his frieuds a permanent committee of corporation was organized for this borough and its vicinity or which Joseph Priestly, M. D., was chSsen Chairman, assisted by several sucrctarics. On motion of Joseph Bird, Esq., an Executive Com mittee of five citizens was named to take general charge of the arrangements, assisted by sub committees on details, such as procuring a suita ble place or meeting, the committee of reception, address of welcome, quarters and entertainment of visitors, amusements, Sic, &c. The meeting adjourned to re-assemlIe at the call of the presiding officer, when further infor mation shall be received from the Central Com mittee in New York. Dr. Bolton returned home on Monday morn ing, bearing the assurance or all who feci any interest in the town and the cause, of a hearty co-operation on the part of our peoplu. .Yoi-fA'd J're. The .VJfriiii has adopted the rash in advance system foi subscription. A sensible plan, and we hope all newspapers iu the county will agree to adopt the same plan. This udvar.ee pay plan has been adopted in the majority of the couutics lu the Slate. Not only subscription but all other printing should be paid in ndvance, and we hope the publishers throughout the county will meet and adopt a better system or business, and stick to it after it has been adopted. Look Out for Him. A tea swindler U play ing his game quite successfully in some ir the country town. He sells a number or five pound packages, telling his customers that it is better not to disturb the tea, but to use from the top of the package. On examination it Is found that these five pound packages contain ubout one pound of tea the rest is made up of wads of paper. Look out for his advent. Rtv. J. B. Reimensniuieii, pastor of hi.

The Lock Haven fireman, on an excursion to Allentown last week and return, give the blow ing report to the Lock Haveu l'jtbliean of their reception at this place : .sunbury was reached at 10:4.", and the grand entertainment received by ns all alonsj the route was continued here. The entire Fire Depart ment, composed of the best material of Sunbury was at the depot, und our welcome was in keep ing with the well-known generosity of the citi zen. Geo. B. Cadwallader acted as director of ceremonies. After parading the streets of the borough the procession brought up at Market Square, over the entrance to which was r.n arch, and depending therefrom a banner, inscribed, "Welcome Cataract of Lock lUveu." In the park a stand was erected, and after tin) line had been drawn up in front, Mr. William A. Sober, Esq., attorney at law and fireman, delivered a neat and appreciable address of welcome, to which 8. R. Peule, Esq., responded. After this, Mr. Sol-er read an invitation fiom the Good Iu tent Fire Company, requesting Cataract and vi sitors to call at their house about 2 o'clock. Three times three cheers were given for Snnbury and her firemen, after which the line broke and the excursion party was divided, nud sent to dif fureut hotels, where bounteous table awaited them. A noticeable feature or this reception was that the Chier Burgess and every member of Council was present, and entorud luto the plea. urea or the occasion with heart and soul. At 2 o'clock we proceeded to tho house or Washington und Good Intent Companies. Gen. Jno. Kay Clement welcomed the boys In behalf of the companies, to which Mr. Hippie responded in a ueat, humorous speech, the appreciation or the hearers being Indicated by the rounds or ap plause that Interrupted him, especially after his "camp meeting exwrience." Chief Burgess, Sol. Malick, also addressed the guests, and ex tended to them un invitation to partake of the generous lunch spread before them. No second bidding was necessary; no common mortals were ever supplied with bettor appetites, aud no matter how oteif we ale, there were still room for more. ' The extensive arrangements made for the en tertainment of our party had nil been made un der the direction of the council, whq had held a special meeting for that purpose. And they were successful in' their undertaking, for when the hour of depa'rf uf e' canid, wus ths universal regrc;jUi wa vlti t4 Kinaiu with the good citizens aii) hi aye firemen of Sunbnry a longer time. At 4:10 we again entered the cars, but not until we had been refreshed by a collation n't th hands ' of f h Siinbtiry'flrp eompnnv. The Centenial of Dr. Priestley's Discove ry of Oxygen.

A Challenge. The boat race on the river last week appears to have attracted attention abroad. Since our lust issue we received the following letter wh'.ch speaks for itself: Georgetown, June 20, 1874. Kditor American : Sir I observed in your pa per of yesterday that you offer to wager your only copper pocket piece on the Sunbury man that he would beat rowing a boat. We or Georgetown rr.aks no pretensions to wager pock et pieces, for they are "small." We have here the natural water course of the river without impediments. No dams for stilling the waters which courses over the rocks nt McKec's Half Falls, and which tries the skill of a good oars man in gniding his craft through the boisterons current. It is an easy matter to row in calm water ; any one can 6ail on a smooth sea, but to navigate skillfully through the rough waves re quires athletic strength and eood judgment. We are not given to wagering, but if your Snnbury man beats, we can accommodate yon with ano ther match to row through McKee's Half Falls, and whichever ide is the looser, Sunbury or Georgetown, they to pay for a catfish supper, which, you know, can he got up by our laud lords in the best style. Wc have a few oarsmen here who would not mind giving a trial to the Sunbury champiou rower. We are open for a challenge ns statad the wager to be a catfish supper for the wiuning party. Yours, CAPT.
