last week, and took an overeat and a dress
coat. It is statsd that Mr. R. N. Fool, of Virginia,

The sheriff of Daophiu county and the sheriff

It was very gratifying to see that no accidents
of a serious nature occurred during the holding
of the fair at this place. On Thursday a buggy
was upset and tbe occupants thrown out ; a lady
receiving a few slight bruises. A child was run
over on tbe same day but not seriously injured.
As fak as we cau learn, the fair at this place
gave general satisfaction except the managers
allowing liquor to be sold upon the ground,
which is universally condemned by all law abid
iug citizens. We noticed several young meu
staggering about in the road of those auxlous to
see, who had imbibed too much beer at a stand,
allowed by the managers to be erected in close
proximity to where eatables were furnished, the
proceeds of which are to be applied towards
building a house of worship.

A New Sion. W. A. Heller, the Waiiamaker
clothier of Sunbury, further displayed his eulcr
pr'iM: by putting up a handsome sign iu front of
bis store, corner of Third and Market streets.
The sign is in keeping w ith his immense stock
of goods and looks vry handsome. So do his
good. All who buy of him never fail to return
for more, as it stands the test of good quality at
a low price.
The pajer and stationery store of Messrs.
Murray ii Co., in this place, was entered on Wed
nesday night of last week through a back win
dow, nud tbe money drawer relieved of some five
dollars. Nothing ei was disturbed.
The vegetable department at the Fair last
. ek, was w ell supplied by our townsman James
Washington, who we learn drew a large number
of premiums. Mr. Washington, by his energy,
!ihs earned quite a reputation as a farmer, and
i'or raising trnck be has but few equals. His
great variety of vegetables, with which be sup
nil our markets during, the season, attracts ge-
merrJl attention. We observe a number of the

The day following our isiie of last week, we
were handed the amount due us by Mr. Guerucl

left in town to pay several bills, but through
neglct did not reach its proper place to uvoid a
notice not complimentary to Mr. Guernella. As
he disapieared rather mysteriously, we could
eoroe to no other conclusion than tbt be intrud
ed delinqincy, which is In keeping with a num

Thk Faiii on Tnt ksday. ie large number
of persons visiting Ihe fair grounds on Thurs
day last, were much delighted at the numerous
attractions on that day. In the morning the
grand parade of the fire department of Sunbury,
took place. At nine o'clock, the Good Intent
Company, the fcteam Fire Company No. 1, and
the Washington Steam Fire Company, formed
ou Market Square under the command of W. C.
Packer, Esq., member of S. F. Co. No. 1, who
was elected by the ditlercut companies as Chie-f
Maixlial. After being formed in line, they open
ed column, aud received the t akctown depart
ment, which took the right of the proccssiou.
The latter company is composed t employees of
the different shops, who had a small engine be
longing to tbe P. and E. shops, on which was
painted "No. The Machine was Irip-.mcd
with iron, and was drawu by Mr. E. Bostiau's
ox team, and followed by the sturdy workmen
iu their working clothes, numbering about 70
inon, pulling a novel hose carriage constructed
from a wheelbarrow. Two banners on which
was inscribed, "Chicago, 171 ; if, we had only
been there." "Bostou in 1S72 ; if, wc had only
been there." The foreman, Mr. Noeckcr, car-j
ried a huge tin hoi u, alout live leel m leugui,
and whenever the souud of his voice passed
through it, every member of the company ol eyed
the command proceeding therefrom. It was a
line feature iu the parade, as by their working
uniform they showed that a little iouh usage
was no obstacle to their usefulness at lire. The
compiiuy met with hearty cheers along the line.
At the Fair grounds these hardy toilers showed
that good hearts weie concealed under the oil
stained garments by the presentation to the oth
er companies of their born and banners, ai.d as
relics they will no doubt be highly cherished by
the recipients. The foreman's horn was pre
sented to the Washington S. F. Co. by Sam.
Morgan, und responded to by Chief Burgess Ma
lick. The second horn was presented to Steam
Fire Company No. 1, by T. H. B. Kasc, Esq.,
aud responded to by W. C. Packer, Esq. The
banners were presented to the Good Intent Com
pany by Gen. Juo. K. Clement, and responded to
by Lewis Dewart, Esq. Alter cheers were given
the companies left the ground. In the afternoon
several of the principal trotting and running
races came off, but n no one except the judges
were permitted on the stand, aud tbe record of
time made by the different horses being withheld
by the committees, we are unable to give n re

A Sad Affair. On Thursday afternoon last,
a very tragic affair took place in the western
part of our town. The facts in the case as near
ly as wc have been able to gather are briefly as
follows :
Mr. Munly, a butcher, residing in West Sha
mokiu, beyond Second street, had purchased a
cow from some party in the neighborhood, and
om the day in qucstiou had gone to bring theaui
nml home to his slaughter hone. She was
known to be somewhat w ild and viscious, but
lieing accustomed to handling cattle he thought
It unnecessary to resort to any special precuu
tiors, iu tbe attempt to transfer her to the
slaughter house. Before he had proceeded far
on his way, however, she madly toro away from
him, and dashing along tbe street, when she
came near the corner of Second and Chestnut
sti-ets. an old man, walking with his cane
s was his custom, a miner by the name of John
Lubenal, came towards her in an opposite di
rection, as he was ou his way home from work
at Bear Valley Colliery. As the infuriated
beast, came near him she suddenly rnaile.-i ; .ungc
at Litu on the side-walk ; and unable to escape
from the sudden cud unexpected attack of the
maddened fugative, being a man of about 10
years of age, he was there so fearfully gored
that he died in about an hour afterward. Mr
M utnly hastened to his assistance as soou as pos
biblc, and helped him into the adjoining lot, and
when iin-t inside the irate he bled to death. He
was removed to his home iu the extreme part of
West Shamokiu ; a Coroner' inquest was held,
aud the verdict given was In accordance with
these facts, that death was caused by hemor
rhage from being gored by this vicious animal.
The cow was subsequently shot by someone who
came to the rescue with his gun. Deceased was
a North Prussian by birth and had not been in
this country very many years. As he was au
old man and becomiug somewhat infirm, lie was
employed as a slate picker nt the colliery ; and
it seems strange that he should have been thus
dreadfully destroyed after having passed the
perils of a long aud weary miner's life peril
also in a long ocean voyage as he came to make hi
home iu this western world, and now returning
quietly on his way home after a day of toil to
perish thus .suddenly, the victim of a savage
beast.
He leaves a w ife and children, some of wkom
are married aud reside iu thi town, to mourn
his strauge and terrible death. Sliamnkin Tinw.

We copy the folio ..inn from the Williainspjrt
Itanvtf: Our sanctum was Illuminated ou Wed
nesday hy the pleasant countenance of our old
time friend Sol. Malick, the Chief Burgess of
Sunbury, who was veiling our city in compauy
with th: Wasbingtou Fire Company of that
place. Mr. Malick is a staunch, uncompromis
ing Democrat, and a who'.c-soulc.l man. He Is
nergetic aud public spirited to au uuustiai ile-
rec, aud lie has perfiM mcd a vast amount of
welt directed labor iu advancing n II the public
interests of the town i which he resides aud
where he is serving tbe third consecutive term as
Chief Burgess. In his labors for the improve- :
ment of Sunbury. Mr. Malick has been opposed ,
by a set of old fogies whose small souls aud dull
heads could not see the importance of the work
originated by his clear head, and carried out by
his vigorous hand, fiuutury owes much to Mr.
Malick, and we feel glad to kuow that she ap
preciates him. Such tm n as Malick strengthens
our belief in human goodness, and leads us to
think that all meu are not wholly heartless and
selfish. Withiu the next half century Sunbury
is destined to become a large manufacturing
city, and then the name of Solomon Maliik will
be cherished, while his opponents slumber In the
oblivion of forgetfulwss.
When Messrs. Marx te Bro. opened their Fau-
cy store iu the Masonic uuuuings, many j-irui.-i.-ed
that a store comprising but notions, would be
a failure. Messrs. Marx commenced by selling
their goods at cheap rates by which means they
have established an extensive business. Their
store is one of the handsomest in the place, and
the artielca sold arc new, and many trimmings
and notions arc kept by them that are not offer
ed for sale in other stores. Their stock is being
continually suppled with new goods from the ci
ty, therefore their goods are always fresh from
the market. Mr. Moses Murx is going to the
city again lor un extensive assortment of all the
fancy goods found there in market, which will
be opened next week.
Festival. A festival will be held at the Odd
Fellows Hall.Suydertown, ou Thujsday, and Fri
