another of the lost arts.

JJcrFALO Steak. We were the recipient, yes
terday, of a flue Buffalo steak, through the kiud
ness of that philanthropist, Mr. David Fry, who
makes it a business to supply the hungry with
fresh roll, bread and cakes. The Buffalo meat
was sent tc btin from Kansas by a relative, and
we confess was not only more tender tbau the
beef our butchers SDpply, but of a better flavor
It was delicious. Our r-troci need have no
fears of our starving (or few days, s our ap

A Bolii, Dakikg R..EBEUT. The robbery of the
Grove family, rending a lew miles from Miffiin
bunr, Union county, ou Thursday night the Mi
inst., was attended with circumstances as reck
less, and us romantic as thoe connected with the
adventures of Robin Hood. A neighbor has fur
nished us with the following fuels : The rob
bers, eeveii in number, eutercd the schooi house
clofe by curly iu the eveuiug. About half part
6evcn they tame iuto the house of old Mr. Grove,
acd to!4 him tlu-y were government ollicers in
tC.I rdl Ol COUIIIOI ICIl lUOUl'l , U!.U iu.ll lie umn
produce his money for exaiuiuutioii. Terrified
by their threats and actions, the old man went to
his bureau, mid delivered into their bauds Sl'JdO
iu gold and silver, a portion of which, inherited
iroiii the urand mother, i ad b"Mi in the family
eighty jvur.r. The robbers then toll! hliu the
real object of their visit. One of them having
observed the c!J gentleman in thrntting Uis
hands into his pocket, quickly rapped him on the
bend with a small batter psdilie. They then hiid
him on his bed, lieing one leg to the bed post at
the foot, and his extended arm to the head
board, then covered hira, ns tbey saiJ, to keep
him warm. The old lady was treated in a simi
lar manner. Tbey then went to the house ol his
son Amos, across the way, seized him acil lied
him securely, and also his wife, and told Amos
as they did the old man, that they must not at
tempt to release themselves until luoruiug, at
the peril of their lives, as they would keep a
wutch on the outside. Th.-y, however, untied
the wife of A nios, and took her over to the house
of the old man, aud ordered her to get up a good
supper, with plenty of hot coU'ce, and all the
dainties and sweet meats the bouse could afford,
which was promptly done. The robbers all had
handkerchiefs tied over tbeir faces. One of
them told her she had better take a cup of coffee
over tu Amo-, as he was accustomed i have bis
coliee belore retiring for the night. She was
somewhut surprised at this remark, 6 it whs li
terally true. The toboeis, not being ready to
leave, one of them picked up a bible, and im
proved the ooctts'uHi by reading a chapter for the
edification of the old man, ml concluded by of
feiing up a prayer in his behalf: They soou af
terward went to the stable, nud hitched up u
pair ol horses to a bob sled, and proceeded on
their way rejoicing. On their way to Sunbury,
25 miles, they took a wrong read, aud had to re
trace their steps, aud thcu came to the river at
Selmsgrove, five miles below. Foituuately fur
ihc robbers, the 2.30 night train wus an hour
late, and tbey had hardly time lo 'each the de
pot iu this place, before the train arrived. The
horses had b.en t riven very hard, and were
louud early iu ihe morning, hitched to the fence
at the lower end ol the town by Mr. Ray. Soon
after they left, the wife uf Amos managed to
loose ber cords, and offered to loosen those of the
old man aud her husband, but they both plolest
ed, and reTused to be re!eas-d, as tln-y reared the
robbers would kill them if they did not reiuaiu
tied up till momliiu. Such was the fear ol these
terror stricken men that they refused to offer ut'.y
reward for the capture of the robbers, aud said
they were welcome tv the money il they only
never came lHck. Next day the old geutleinan
deposited three thousand dollars, in treen backs,
in the Lewisburg Bank. This money had been
placed in a secret drawer, which escaped the vi.
gilance of the robbers.

Orit neighbor of the Daily has come rich w.
suppose, at least his shed h.is domed a bran n W
d ess. The Ifaily looks much be.ter in app a
ranee, and is now a neat lookiig paper. We
congratulate our neighbor upon his prosperity In
the business, as but few can boast ol such luck
Ilope you can bear it, Jake.
Tne editor of the Paily cannot recoici'e littu
self about the office of Sealer of Weights and
Measures, because tbe appointment traigiven to
a Republican. Had a Democrat got theajpoint
ment, and sub-let it to a secoud party, then
Jakey would have considered it all right. The
office Is worth, perhaps, about t00 per annum,
and is not near as "soft thing" as that f the
editor's friend, Dr. Dowitt, who secured a Ork
ship at Harrisburs through i; Democratic num
ber, and then sub-let the jEice to a friend nd
now reeiines in the shndes of Lickrun, while lis
sub does the work nt the scat of goverumeu.
Another similar instance is that of Mr. Hottci
st'me, County Aud'tor, who refused to assist tht
board of Auditors, but after they had finished,
hired a clerk lo assist him to audit the accouot
in bis own peculiar Nor would we be at all
surprised if be would ask the county to pay tbe
expense. Now, we ask our neighbor candidly,
who ias th softest thing. Wa await an answer.
We copy the following items from the Shamo
kiu Timet of hist week :
A km Buoien. F. W. Pollock, E?i.,the Presi
dent of the Northumberland County National
Dank, when in ihe act of alighting from the
twin at Ibis place on Monday last, slipped off
the lower step of the I as-senger cur, and falling
ou the station platform, broke his left arm above
the elbow. He returned to his home in William
sport, on Tuesday, where he will remain until
able to resume his duties iu the bunk.
R. U. Evri.oTEE Imvkkd. Mr. Geo. Sarvis.a
brother of conductor Teter Sarvis, had his arm
badly lacerated by having it cauaht between Ihe
dead wood of Iwo cars which ho was attempting.
to couple at the Weiah Scales, on Thursday. j
A Wn.n Hog Shot. During the last six I
limn! lis a wild hog lias been frequently seen on
the Mahuuoy mountain, but it was so fleet-footed
that hunters were unable to get within shoot
ing distance of the savage porker. On Sunday
ias', it was seen again by a man who was un
armed, and the brute, being no doubt doubly
savage from hunger, made atrgressive move
ments towaids the traveler, who was compelled
to be.it n busty retreat. On Tuesday Mr. Daniel
B. Eisenhurt, familiarly known as "Fishy"
Eis?nhart went to the mountain with a com- I
panion, am! as both were well armed they hoped
for success in capturing the untamed bacon.
Separating, tffey had not huutcd long before Mr.
Eisenhart discovered the porker at a distauce.
leisurely catiug some twigs. Thinking that no
better opportunity would present itself. Mr. E.
fired aud wounded the hog slightly, which so en
raged the beast that it turned on its pursuer and
drove him up on an elevated log for safety. . Re
loading as quickly us possible, the sccoud shot
killed the hog just as Mr. E.'s cumpauiou wus
coming to his as-istanee. We happened that
way ou Tuesday and met the triumphant hunt
ers as they were bringing their trophy to Ne
town. The hOiC weighed c.boul two huudred
pnnnils and had two huge, ugly tusks, triangu
lar in shape uuJ very sharp nt the points.
It had constructed itself a very ingenious lair

been found exceptor accident.
School Diiiectokh. Next Tuesday an Ira
p.ntant duty falls upon the voters to iook alter
the election afgood men, for school directors in
the different scho-districts. We must I: Te
gentlemen of intelligence, experience and good
judument to fill tbe.position. Inagratmeasuie
the success ol our schools depend upon the men
entrusted with the mauagemeut aud const rol ol
our educatioual uiTairs. If our school system
is to be perfected aud made the grand success
we wish it to be, we rryrst exercise great care
and discrimination in the choice of director s. In
a general seuse a man tirmake a good schooi di
rector must be educated ; that is, he should be
familiar with, at least, the ordinary branches of
Study and well versed iu the practical affairs of
lite. Good rhool directors are to our public
schools what good teachers are to the pupils.
No pupil cares to attend a school whose teacher
is illiterate, uuconlk and devoid of refinement,
nor is it much credit to be u school teacher when
unclucuted and inexperienced men are the direc- 1
lots by whom tbe schools ure awarded.

rENSAKT, Buffalo, N. Y.
Kuowing ttiat you are subject to a great
.iiiiount ol sntitfiing, tlutt deltcaey on yoni jmn
has a strong teuduuey lo prolong, uud the longer
il is neglected the more you have to endure aud
. lie more difficult of cure your case becomes, I,
s a physician, who is daily consulted by scores
f your sex, desire to say to you, that I urn cou--tantly
meeting with those alio Imve been treat
ed for their ailments for mouths without belut
iienetitted in the least, until they bave become
lerfectly discouraged and have almost mode I'p
heir minds never to take another do-e of medi
cine, nor be tortured by any further ticatmeut.
Tbey bad rather die aud have their sufferings
ended I litm to live aud suffer as they have. They
say they are worn out by suffering aud are only
made worse by treatment. Of anything more
liscoiiragmg, we certainly cannot conceive, and
were there uo more successful mode of tieathig
uch di't cullies than that, the principles of which
leach the reducing and depleting of the vital
forces of the system, when the indications dic
tate a treatment directly the reverse of the one
adopted lor them, their cases would be deplora
ble indeed. But Ir.dy sufferers, there is a better
ind fur more successful plan of treatment for
you ; one more in harmony with Ihe laws and
requirements of your system. A harsh irritating
caustic treiitmeul and strong medicines wiil
never cure you. If you would use rational
means, such as common-sense should dictate to
eveiy intelligent lady, take such medicines as
embody the very best invigorating tonics and
nervines, cnni'smtnled with special reference to
your delicate system. Such a happy combina
tion yon will find in my Favorite Prescription
which has received the loudest praise from thou--ands
of your sex. Those languid tiresome sen
sations causing you to fe:l scarcely able to be on
your feet or ascend a flight of stairs, that con
linuul dr.:ii is sapping from your systems all
your former elasticity, and driving the bloom
rora your cheeks; that e minimi strain upon
your vital forces that renders you irritable and
iretful, may all be overcome and subdued by a
nersevering use of that maivelous remedy. Ir
regularities and obstructions to the proper work
iugs of your systems are relieved by this mild
and safe rcuans, while peri niieal pains, tbe ex
ist ance of which is a sure indication of serious
disease that should not be neglected, readily
yield to it, aud if its use is kept up for a reason
able lrngtb of time the special cause of these
pains is permanently removed. Further light ou

have given notice to their agents to discontinue
the sale of tickets ou February 15th, in order to
make final arrangements for the drawing, whieh
will positively take place at the time advertised,
on Tuesday, February 23d. Our citizens should
secure their tickets at once, as the time is short,

ment, and some will, perhaps, delay the matter
until too late. The very laudable object for
which the Gift Concei t is given for the purpose
of liquidating the debt on the Coutpanj's steam
fire engine should enlist the active sympathy
and aid of all our citizeu.-, aud especially i U im
portant to every owuer of a dwelling n:ai mis
company should succeed, as its services ure like
ly to be wuuted at any moment.
The citizens of our neighboring towns and ci

ed to calls Tor help from abroad iu lime of great
need, and by its prompt assistance has saved a
large amount ol property. Isides the good pur
pose for which the Conceit is given, every ticket
holder will stand ii chance in the drawing of the
premiums ranging from ?1 to Si, 000.00. Get
your tickets immcdiatelv.
