Capt. Javes Shut of Sharaokiu, has taken

The Fair at Miilersburg, Dauphin co., last

amination it was fonud that burlars had bored
a hole in the back door of the store, and drawn
the bolt on the inside, by that means entering
the store. On hearing the alarm they fled with
out taking anything of much value.
William Bausf.t, tailing from Noathumber
jand, was driving around town on Saturday last,
in a beastly ftate of intoxication. Policeman
Alexander Mantz arrested Baruet, and had him
committed. The Lorse aud buggy belonged to
Mr. Wallace or Northumberland, and was
boused in Col. NctTs stable.
A toi no man giving his uame as Washburn,
hailing from Williamsport, was arrested on Sat
urday by constable S. P. Bright for indecent ex
posure of his person on the street. It is suppos
ed that he is slightly demented. He was com
mitted, and the authorities of Williamsport
notified.
. A Newpapek and a newspaper editor that
people don't tslk about, and sometime abuse,
are rather poor concern. The men and busi
ness that an editor sometimes feels it a duty to
derend at the risk or making enemies of another
class, are often the vcHfcrst to show gratitude.
The editor who expects to receive mnch charity
or gratitude will soon find out his mistake ; bnt
he should go ahead and say aud do what he con
scientiously thinks right without regard to

Frank B. Keli.t, of Danville, was arrested on
Thursday last, for forging an order purjKirting

right, and lie denied having signed it. Kelly was
committed in default or bail.
HenhT Michael, aged about 17 years, was ar
rested In Jackson township, ou Thursday last,
by constable W. II. Bright, and brought before
Esquire Brice, for threatening to kill his mother

many would do well to imitate his ei ample.
Early in the spring he enclosed hi lot kuown as
the basin lot, and commenced cultivating it. He
has already from it a good crop of potatoes and
corn, and now we uotice the fiuct lot of celery
almost fit tor use. He will undoubtedly have a
large lot for sale, and will have it iu market soon.

Caketown on Monday last, a desperate assault
was made upon him by Mrs. Koblc who pulled
his whiskers out, and drove him from the pre

her appearance at next court.

Accidents on the Railroad. Wm. Isaacs,
a miner living at Water Station, came to Sha-
mokia on Saturday evening to make some pur
chases, and did not start home uutll late in the
eveuiue. He had a heavy basket, and sat down
on the railroad near Greenback to rest, and fell
asleep. The 10.30 passenger on the Reading
road wakened him by running over bis toot,
rruHhine it so that it had to be amputated. He
lay at the place where hurt all sight, and was
found on Sunday morning. His sufferings
through the night must have been terrible.

The Firemen Excursion. If there is any set
of men more entitled to a day of enjoyment and
recreation than another It is the firemen. Their
work is of the most luborous kind, they risk life
and limbs, and that, too, for nothing. No hard
ship is too bard for them to endure when the fire
demon in euveloping our homes and destroying
the property which has been earned by the sweat
of the brow during many long years. Let the
cry of fire be souuded ut the midnight hour, the
firemen, enjojing sweet repose iu the arms of
morpheus, is aroused, an 1 without thought,
rushes to the scene of damage, and at once plys
his hands and strength to save the property of
Lis neighbor. There are no questions asked as
to pay. The labor is performed with a will and
no remuneration asked. There is, we repeat,
none who are more deserving of a day's enjoy
ment, and wherever these noble organizations
exist, the citizens thould lend them their aid in
giving them pleasure as an cucourageiiicrt to
keep them united to perform the noble work in
which they are engaged.
Wc were happy to tee that Washington '
Steam Fire Company of this place, ou Tuesday j
morning start on an excursion to Lock Haven to j
visit their brother firemen of that city. It w;is
an indication that they wi-h to learn and be
come better acquainted with each other, and to ;
return with plcasureable recollections to be
cherished in the future. In the lead was our cf- .
ficient Chief Burgess, Sol. Mallck, Esq., who ;
accompanied them. In their visit to Lock Ha
ven aud Williamsport they had a pleasant dis
appointment ; their trip being a continued ova
tlou. The kiud treatment received at the hands
of the firemen and citizens have made a lasting
impression, and u their return home we hear
nothing but praise or the splendid reception j
given them iu our neighboring cities. The j
Washington boys returned home ou Wednesday i
evening, and were received ly me uooa iniciii
Fire Company and Steam Fire Engine Company,
No. 1, haded by the Boys in Blue Drum Corps,
and escorted from the depot through several of
the main streets in torch light procession to
their hall.
We copy the following accounts of their re
ception from the Lock Haven aud Williamsport
papers :
TnE Visiting Fireman. Yesterday wasa gala
one with the firemen of this place, aud at an early
hour in the morning it was easily seen by the
commotion in the streets that some important
event iu the history of the Lock Haven Fire De
partment was to "take place. Large numbers
gathered at the depot, and when the train ar
rived, w hich was halt an hour late, there were
two or three hundred persons present. The
Lock Haven silver cornet band played a lively
air, and headed by Chief Barken and Foreman
McG ill the visitors were escorted to Henderson
street, where the line of march was taken np.
Ou Main street, in front of the Oira House, they
halted and were addressed by Mr. &. R. Pcale,
ou half of the Mayor aud citizens. He was fol
lowed by the Mayor of Suubury, and Mr. T. C.
Hippie made a few felicitous remarks. The line
of march was again resumed, aud at two o'clock
thty proceeded to the Lock Haven Driving Park
to i itness some tests of equine speed. At night
they had a ball at the Old Court House grove,
which was decidedly successful, and the event
will always be cherished in the memory of our
firemen and those of Sunbury with the most
pleasurable recollectious.

THEIR ARRIVAL FROM LOCK HAVEN
THIS AFTERNOON.
Parade Through I he Principal
Street off he City.
niNNEK AT THE I1UANT HOI SE.
Washington Fire Company, No. 1, of Sunbury,
arrived from Lock Haveu shortly after 11 o'clock
this forenoon, and were met at the depot by the.
Paid'Departtueut, and a few of the city officials.
As Mayor Powell was necessarily absent from
the city, Ex-Mayor Starkweather was called
upon to make the welcominir address. That
gentleman said it seemed hardly appropriate for
hitn to receive the firemen of Suubury as guests
of the city, but in view of the absence of Mayor
Powell, aud in view of the position he held during
the great conflagration, when they so nobly re
sponded to the call for assistance, he felt some
what identified with their visit, and was there
fore not so reluctant as he would have been un
der other circumstances. It was unfortunate the
Mayor and Chief Engineer were absent from the
city when their letter signifying their intention
to visit Williamsport arrived, hut if their en
tertainment was not what was expected he
begged them not to look upon it as any fault of
the heart. Well did he remember with what joy
he witnessed their arrival in the city on that
eventful morning when the red flame was sweep
ing through the mill yards, and he was glad to
meet them this morning. The Chief Engineer
would do all he could. The Department had
been transformed from the volunteer to the paid
svstera, and no imposing display could be made,
but the men of the Paid Department were among
those identified with the volunteer body, and he
could pledge the same warm feeling, and the
same desire to make their stay a pleasant one.
And iu behalf of the city he welcomed them to
its hospitalities.
Three cheers were given Dy tue sunoury ure-
men. I
Sol. Malick, Esq., Chief Burgess of Sunbury,
responded. They had come to W illiamsport
ouly to sec, and did not expect any public demon
stration. The firemen or Sunbury were anxious
to 6ce the improvements that had been made
where once so stoutly they battled the demon.
They were so hospitably entertained when here
last spring, that thry lelt they were portion al
most or Williamsport.
They had been more than entertaincc in l.ock
Ilaveu. Their mission there wa a peculiar oue.
When the Lock Haven firemen visited Sunbnry,
they captured a hat, that had probably been used
to muzzle cannon at Bunker Hill. Their mission
was to regain it. 1 hey had done so, and there it
was in line. But the Suubury boys had been
tripped or their stars and even their neck ties,
in the engagement. Lock Haven, however, re
fused their money, aud gave them such an ova
tion, that were it Lot for the welcoming speech
of the Ex-Mayor, they would not know w hether
they were in Williamsport or not. w lien inai
thrilling despatch reached Sunbury that William
sport was iu trouble, the boys responded. Un
fortunately he was Iett bctiind, w iieu me men
moved off drawn by the Iron hore, iiui ii is oesi
wishes followed them that success would early
crown their efforts. It was a duty devolving
upon Sunbury, for they did not know how soon
the day might come when they would need the
assistance of Williamsport firemen, and it was
well to have such friends to aid in quelling tne
firev demon. They accepted the welcome wi;h
open hearts.
three clieers anu auger were gnen iui-
Williainsport firemen.
The line then moved up Fourth street, headed
by the Lewisburg cornet baud, and upon the re
turn was reinforced by the Sunbury engine, it
having been unloaded at Walnut street crossing.
After a march through the city, the vn-itors
were escorted to the Hall of Iudewndeut Club,
and from there marched to the Brant House,
where at the present writiug they are partaking
of a sumptuous dinner, prepared under the su
pervision of Mr. Page, w ho is a bot in such an
emergency.
The Ij-w sbur'' baud Maveu wen, ine ureuieu
looked well, their engine is a beautiful one, and
upon the w hole Sunbury is creditably represent
ed by this well disciplined and finely uniformed
organization.
We trust that they will not regret their visit
to our city, even 11 we were not fully prepared to
receive tlicni.
Arm Amp tatei. John T. Hulluaglc one of
our county commissioners, had one of his arms
amputated a few days ago. Most of our readers
will recollect that Mr. Hulluaglc fell about a
year ago and broKe it, 6ince which time it has
given him a great deal of paiu. The opperation
was successfully performed by Dr. B. I. agen-
scller, assisted by Dr. Priestley, both of Selius
gaove. Mr. Hulfnagle is, his numerous frieuds
will be glad to hear, getting along finely. -Vi-dlebnrg
Poof.
Refreshments on the Fair Gkoi nii. The
ladies of the M. E Church, will keep a table or
refreshments, such as Hot Coffee, Oysters, Sand
wiches, Ac. ou Fair Ground, during the continu
ance or the Fair next week. Eels will be served
at their table on the ground, during the after
noon or Thursday. As the object is a benevolent
one, give them a call.
Careless Shooting. Complaints hnve fre
quently been made of parties in search of game,
on farms in this vicinity, in regard to careless
shooting. Farmers working in their fields are
frequently exposed to danger, and in a number
of cases have made narrow escapes from being
hot. Mr. G. W. Stroh. while passing over the
frm nfH. P. Wolvcrton. above town, which he
is rarming, on several occasions had leaden pcl-
i.ta in hiitle around his head. On one occa.
sion the shot st ruck a horse. Such careless gun
ners should lie looked artcr and severely dealt
with.
James A paws died suddenly on Sunday mom
i ir A rimiia wns for sixteen vears the cap
tain of a cannl boat, in the employment of W.
F. Naglc. He was well known on the canal.and
was in some sort the Bean Brummcllof his class,

Hon. J. B. Packer was introduced to the Con
vention smid't enfhn'instie npp'nnse. ster
thanking the Convention for the honor conferred
npon him. he proceeded in a masterly speech to
vindicate Congress aud the President for the
atrocious charges heaped upon them by the un
scrupulous press of the Democratic party.
The Committee above referred to was further
instructed to notify Messrs Parker and John of
their nomination for the Assembly, aud Gen 1
John K. Clement of his nomination for the Dis
trict Attorneyship.

Mn.iTAitT. On Wednesday evening four mili
tary companies connected with the Seventh
Regiment, commanded by Col. Alex. Caldwell,
passed through this place from the coal region
en route for Harrisburg, where inspection and re
view took place yesterday. They arrived here
in a special train at 8:30, and were attached to
the 8:40 train going south. The companies were
composed of the Washington Rifles, Cupt. J.
McElicce, 77 men ; Shamokin Guards, Capt.
James Shipp, 47 men ; Geary Bucktails, Capt.
Strasser, Oil men; Mt. Carmel Rifles, Capt. J.
M.John, 57 men. They were fully equipped,
and their fine uniforms and general good ap
pearance attracted great attcutlon. These com
panies w ere ouly part of the regiment, those bc
youd Mt. Carmel went over another route. The
companies are composed of the best of men, well
drilled, many being old veterans, aud a credit to
our military organization. Capt. McEliece's
company is composed principally of Irish citi
zens, aud by their good behavior and patriotism
in the past, have won for themselves the high
esteem of all the military organizatious as well
as the citizens generally in the county. They
made a spleudid appearance and were greatly
admired by our citizens. Well may the Captain
be proud of his men nnder his command.
The Companies returned to their homes this
(Friday) morning.

Atrocious Conduct. On Tuesday evening
last while the Temperance League was in session
in the basement of the St. Paul's M. E. Church,
some scoundrels outside made an attack on it by
hurling 6tones through the windows, breaking
the glass and wounding Mr. F. Montagus ou the
arm ; pistols were also fired otTat the same time.
The attack was repeated when the villiuiis were
chased off. the darkness of the night anil nostreet
lights facilitating their escape. Wu characterize
the attack as atrocious, as many ladies were at
the meeting who were thrown into the greatest
consternation. The next day Mr. Wm. Antrim
dug out of the window jam a largo sized bullet
imbedded therein, plainly proving that the ras
cals fired with deadly intent.
Never before ia this place has a house of wor
ship been assailed, and it has come to a pretty
pass if a meeting, no matter of what kind, moral
and lega', can't be held without danger from
ruffians. Every good citizen should joiu to for
rct out the perpetrators of this murderous as
sault Dani-Mt Liteltj'ueer.
Mi-Rpnitors) Outrage. Cn Tuesday eveuing
last, about 11 o'clock, as Charles Leidy, Esq., or
this place, accompanied by his wife and another
lady, were walking along Market street, he was
assaulted by a couple of rnfflans who came up
behind him and struck hiru with a club or billy,
and stabbed him in three places about the neck.
The assaulted party called murder lustily, aud
the villains fled. From the nr.tnre of the wounds
the assailants were evidently determined upon
taking Mr. Iidy's lire, as the stabs were made
in vital parts, and he bled very severely. Mrs.
Leidy had noticed the ruffians following them
some distance, and had warned her husband of
their approach, but he would not credit that they
meant harm uutil he was assnnlted. The night
was a very dark one, and was well chosen to
commit murderous deeds.
From this and another dastardly deed or rur
fiauism perpet rated on the same evening, it
seems our town is inrested with wretyhes who
heve murder in their hearts, and are capable or
doing it, and only wait the opportunity to carry
out their designs. Such being the case, it be
hooves every citizen who appreciates law and
ordur, and values life and property, to land their
hand in ai ling the officers to ferret out those de
mons iu our midst. Until this is done, no mau's,
woman's or child s Ufa is secure an hour when
ilurkiicss closes in our town. And first of all,

Coffee vs. Rum. Mr. Joshua L. Baily, a well
know n merchant in Philadelphiain order to stay
the ravages caused by rumsellmg anj promote
the cause of temperance.is tngnged in establishing
coffee houses where workmen and all others who
feel the want of a sliraulai.t, can get a cup of
K(01j fr,., ,.0fl-,.t.) aII(i a roU for five cents. This
j is a step in the right direction, and will effect
j more good than any praying band, local option,
I or all the restraining laws that can be enacted,
i It i-i offering as a substitute, a good and whole
some ailicle, that will often be preferred, when
it can be had, to the death dealing poiBon that
lures so many to misery and destruction.

Mr. Kkitok:
Dear Sir : I take this opportunity to send you
a few items for jour valuable paper from our

lilies so far appears very quiet, but all are well
pleased with the ticket put in the field on Tuei
d iy last. I think It is a ticket the Republican
party may well feel proud of, and satisfied
with our true and fearless leader Hn. J. B.
Facker. We can carry the county and elect our
entire ticket without any doubt. The coming
Fair at Sunbury appears to be the absorbing in
terest at this time in our section. By U reports I
can hear, it will be one of tin mott imposing dis

two or three taeb day, uesiuss iuiuv j u -...r....nr.,lo

It is very gratifying .o learn, when travelling
through the country, that the people appreciate
store keepers who advertise, as they learn in this
way where to buy the cheapest. A few days
ago wc met several acquaintances who were clad
in the heighth of the fashion, and admiring
their garments wo iuquired where they had been
procured. Tiicy auswered w at Simon & Op
penheimer's in Sunbnry. Seeing they advertised
freely in the American, we gave them a trial to
find oat whether they sold as they represented.
We inquired how they were satisfied, and they
said they never were better pleased ; that they
fonnd their goods cheaper and better than any
they had yet seen ; and that they could cheerrul
ly recommend all their friends to deal with them
as they dealt fair aud square. Such testimo
nials are certainly worthy or consideration, and
others will no doubt find them the same by call
