Tut name of Marx is, we notice, spreading far
and wide in this county. Last week tie Shamo
kin papers noticed the new firm of Marx & Co.
opening a new store in tliafc place. We feci con

character of the goods found at their 6torc, they
will extend them a fullshareof patronage. They
not only supply snch goods as cannot be found
in other stores, hut. they sell them at prices
which other storekeepers have to pay for them
in the cities.
The Haptist Congregation hold a festival in the

of thirty years they will establish themselves in

Skntknted. Thomas Gribbous, who was con
victed of murder in the second degree last week,
was sentenced on Monday, to eleven years anu
six moiitln imprisonment in the Eastern Peni
itentiary, and to pay a fine of ?10 and coMs of
prosecution.
Gribbous made a s)'ecli denying his guilt, and
attempted to show the Court how the shooting
occurred, to the effect that Keating shot himself.
The evidence clieited on the case was conclusive
as to the opposite. The sentence, no doubt, was
a just one. A few more such would have the ef
fect of putting an end to the violence existing in
the coal legions as well as in our midst.
Tun residence of John Snyder, on Front street,
was accidentally set on fire on Monday night un
der the following circumstances :
Mr. Snyder had an occasion to go up stairs.
He had a lighted pipe in his mouth, and carried
a lamp. He returnee" and started down towards
the dam, anil hud gone but a few minutes when
a light was discovered up stairs by his daughter
who gave the alarm. Mr. C. Woodcock and Ly
man Hilkert succeeded in extinguishing the
flames, after the bed with all the bedding, alitbe
clothes in the clothes basket, and part of the
floor has been burned, it is supposed the tire
originated in the clothes tucket from a spark
from Mr. Snyder's pipe.
Ki.ack Bass. On Tue-day last, fifty of these
fine tish, of tood bize. were forwarded to this
place by Mr. Dully of Marietta, and place 1 in the
liver by W. Cameron Packer, .v.c.
If they are properly protected, the basinatthis
place will soon abound with bass. It is only a
few years since when au equal number were
placed in the river at Harrisburg. They seem to
prefer deep water, and now the fishing at Dau
phin attracts hundreds of petsous, and large
numlers of bass arc caught daily. Perhaps
there is no pool of water iu the State equal in
depth and capacity to that formed by the Shatno-
J kin dam, and better adapted for breding these
I lish. What we wuut is, that these tish shall not
I be caught or disturbed for several years, after
which the basin will be swarming w ith bass. The
law iu such cases will ne enforced, and the pe
nalties are severe.
One of those events to which one. can refer iu
the future as a pleasing reminiscene of the
past, took place at the City Hotel last Saturday
night. Mr. Drumheller, the proprietor, ever on
the alert to please his guests, aud show his ap
preciation of their friendship, took this occasion
to present W. J. Steele, better koovru as "Jack,"
with a handsome pair of gold spectacles as a
of the best jurymen our county has ever ( birth day present. About S o clock the friends
assembled in one of the parlors, and organized
by calling T. II. ii. Ka"e, Esq., to the Chair. The
presentation was then made by Mr. Kase in an
appropriate and eloquent address, and accepted
on behal f of Mr. Steele by J. Snyder, Esq. Jerry
was almost as happy as the donor or the donee.
His ponderous eloquence, and poetical effusions
were stiietly original and smiling-like. Several
other addresses were made with equally happy
results. Singing was somewhat indulged :u till
all felt happy, and satisfied that all had enjoyed
a pleasant evening.

Court Proceedings.
SfNT.DRY, Nov. 16th, lfsVL
Com. vs Thomas Gribbius ; murder. The jury
on this case was empannelled on last Saturday
a week, and held undei strict survcilance by tho
constables until the second week of criminal
court, when the case was continued. Upwards
of one. hundred witnesses were examined far
aud against the prisoner. On Friday afternoon
the case closed, and the Judge delivered his
charge, which was clear and impartial. At 0
o clock the jury returned a verdict for murder in
the second degree. A motion for a new trial
was made which was refused by the Court on
Monday. The prisoner was then sentenced to
pay a fine of $10, cost of prosecution, and under
go an imprisonment of separate and solitary
confinement, ;p the eastern penitentiary, for the
period of uleven years and six month'?. The
longest period that I lie Court could "ve him U
twelve years.
Gen. Clement, was counsel for the Common
wealth, and Wolveiton and Oram, Esiirs.,for the
prisoner, it was one of the most closely and
carefully contested criminal cases tliut has ever
been tried in our courts, and the manner in
which the attornies acquitted themselves elcarly
proves that the Northumberland rouiity Bar has
talent equal to anv in the State.
Com. vs Charles Oiner; Larceny. True Bill.
Matbcw Nolan, absent witness on the Grib
bius case, was brought into court by an attach
ment, and sentenced by the Court to pay 25 fine
and costs of prosecution, and stand committed
until the sentence of the Court is complied with.
Com. vs. Harriet Gordon ; arson. Sentenced
to the House of Refuge. Harriet is a poor fa
therless girl about fifteen years of age. She ev
idently has had n hard life, and when she com
mitted the, deed, was doubtless in such a distress
ed state of mind, that she did not know what she
was doing.
Th new rule of court appointing certain days
for motions, meets the hearty approval of all the
attornies. Heietofore it was customary for the

Lives of the Governors op Pennsylvania
Bv W. C. Armor. A second addition of this
work has just been issued, bringing it down to
and including the administration of Governor
Hartranf. It gives a sketch of the lives and the
history of the administrations of the Governors
of our Commonwealth from the days when it
was a colony under the Dutch to the present day.
The work is compiled with care and is really the
only "handy book" which we have upon this ex
ceedingly valuable subject of public, interest. As
Professor J. P. Wickersham says : "A State is
what its great aud good men make it ; and this
effort to acquaint the public more fully with the
lives and characters of the men who have filled
the high office of Governor of Pennsylvania is a I
pnise-worthy one, and Major Armor seems to
have performed his task a laborious die with
industry, ability and impartiality. "' Nothing
serves so much io stimulate and enconrrsge the j
youth of a country as the examples of it great,
men, and just such a work as the one bc-forc ns
should be read by every young man. Some of
the ni"n who have filled the Executive tdiair of
our Commonwealth have not been great in the ;
ordinary sense of the term, but they strove faith
fully to do their duty, and the. history of their
administrations is really the political history of
our State which should be familiar to every citi
zen. The work of Major Armor ought to be a
text book in our schools. Messrs. Chcsbrough
& Hempstead, the General Agents Tor this work
for Central Pennsylvania, desire to secure the
services of a few Agents to canvass for them.
Good territory and liberal terms will be given.
Their address is Northumberland, Pa. Mr. C.

The Republicans in this State lost four mem
Iiers of Congress in the 15th, 23d, 20th nnd 27th
districts by only 475 vote.
Who will draw the gre-.t cash prize of .2.V,
000 in the fifth and hist grand gift concert of the
Public Library of Kentucky, is now the agitat
ing conundrum. Some one will do so with a
ticket costing only ?50 ; and the name of the
'.ncky man w ill be known to all the world on the
first day of December next, for the drawing will
certainly take place on the 30th of November.
Two and a half million dollars wiil then be dis
tributed in jiri7.es among twenty thousand ticket
holders. This lllagui'ieellt scheme is under the
management of Gov. Thomas E. Bramlctte, of
Louisville; and the same high-toned dealing
T
will characterize this final drawing as was shown
in the I'leeediiig ones. The Public Library
founded by these gift concerts is an honor to the
State of Kentucky, whose best men are concern
ed in seeitig that precisely what is promised is
pei formed. Orders for tickets, iiceomjianied
with the cash, can be sent to Gov. Thomas E.
Bramlett.1, Louisville, Kentucky, or Thomas II.
