the bumpers. A coroner's jury was summoned
by Esq. Pursel, and an inquest held, who ren
dered a verdict iu accordance with the above
facts. His remains were taken to bis boardiug

Tub Fair at Sindiry. The Agricultural
Fair to be held at this place promises to be a
greater success tbau any of the previous ones.
The society have submitted such a liberal pre
mium list, that exhibitors from all parts ot the
county will compete, as the inducements are
greater than offered by any other fair in Central
Pennsylvania. All the departments will be full,
and agriculturists, mechanics aud florists, we
learn, are determined to have a better display
than has ever been seen at a fair iu this section
of country. The officers aud Executive Commit
tee are making every arrangement for the ac
commodation of exhibitors, and we may cvpet
the grounds iu better condition aud better ar
ranged than heretofore. The Poultry depart
ment will be the best ever exhibited at any rair
In the State, Col. D. Taggert will have one
hundred cages, with varieties from every part of
the world. Besides, we learn that many others
will be on the ground with poultry to compete
for the premiums.
The trotting ou the race course, daily, will be
of the most exciting character. Some of the
fastest trotting horses in the country are expect
ed to be entered. Every day during Us continu
ance will be something new to gratify visitors.
Trotting, parades, music, and Sim Rouse's flying
circus will be some of the entertaining features,
with grander display than has ever been 6ecn at
fairs. We arc glad to sec that all who feci an
interest in the fair arc preparing articles for ex
hibition. Persons visiting the fair will find un
usual attractions. Arrangements have been
made for excursion tickets over all the rail,oads
centreing here, at greatly reduced rates. The
indications are that a larger throng of visitors
will be in attendance than any fairs held in this
vicinity. Persons who desire premium lists
should send to G. B. Cadwallader's Drug store,
or address the Secretary of the Society.
Peaches have been unusually abundant the
past week, aud sold at prices rauging rrom $1 00

nearly all during the day, at $1 00 for yellow and
90 cent for white peaches. The same day G.
W. Smith received kud sold 100 boxes or crates,
which were sold nt f 1 00 tier box. These peaches
were in good order, and iu much bitter condition
than previous consignments. Then a few peaches
in the market grown in the neighborhood. They
were sold at $2 00 per bushel, and arc worth all
the difference to those who appreciate a sweet,
luscious aud highly flavored peach.

for the purpose, beyond a doubt, of robbing it.
Being a warm night, the upper sash of the win
dow iu the room back of the store, occupied by
Mr. Robertson, was left down. During the night
Mr. R. was aroused from his sleep by a noise
made by some one attempting to get in. He
called "Who Is there t" when the chap made a
hasty retreat from the premises.

After a long vacation, the public schools
opcucd on Monday last,nd scholars shouldered
their satchels containing their books and entered
on the arduous campaign of trying to improve
their minds by the acquisition of that knowledge
which means power. The article of the ITarri
hwg Telegraph on the opening of schools in that
place is applicable to the opening of the schools
here. It says :
"Your average boy and jtirl of to-day are not at
all predisposed toward traveling the thorny path
that leads up the hill of science, and the fact of
the mutter is that he or she, as the case may be,
would rather shoot marbles, fly kites, or jump
the skipping rope. The hard forms where the
school child must sit for Ave or six hours a day ;
the tasks or reading, writing, and figures that he
must perform ; the repression or the flow or ani
mal spirits possessed by every urchin, and the
behaving or himself in pi oper and decorous style,
are very tryiug. We, who have grown up can
remember how it was with ourselves, aud we
can pretty fully appreciate the difficulties of the
school boy's position.
Aloug the streets this morning there were hun
dreds or children creeping, like the snail, very
unwillingly, and their countenances did not de
pict any great amount of joy. The first rule in
mathematics that the more advanced exercised
themselves in was counting up the number of days
that would elapse until the term wouid close.
This is by no means the case with all, however,
for there are children who really delight iu try
ing to learn as rapidly as possible. It Is granted
thai the number is quite small, but still there are
those who rack their brains uot only in the school
room, but also at home in trying to commit to
memory a difficult task, or in an effort to solve a
knotty problem. Alter a while they will emerge
from the shrysalis, and we. will find them mak
ing their mark as ministers, lawyers, merchants,
or in some other avocation, and the girls will
blossom into useful, intelligent women, who will
make hapry tin; hearts and homes or good and
true men.
It is scarcely necessary to urgu upon the boy
or girl who may read this that an education is a
positive necessity iu our day and generation. IT
one wishes to make his mark in the world he
must not be like ''dumb driven cattle," but on
the contrary it is incumbeut upon him to be able
to hold his own in the ordiuary branches or
science. The person wno lana io ciuunice me
means or attaining some prominence iu at least
the ordinary branches taught in our schools is
closing a golden opportunity that will never re
turn, aud iu after years unavailing regrets will
ensue because of a failure to use these preciou3
hours to a better advautagc. Now is the time
for the children to do everything that their care
ful and competent teachers may suggest, and at
the end of the term they will be surprised at how
much additional knowledge they have attained,
while their parents wjjl look upon their school
record with a great deal of pardonable pride.
Barx Bi:ksei. On Sunday afternoon large
bank barn, the property of Samuel llowcrsox,
in Franklin township, Snyder county, was de
stroyed by fire with nearly all its contents. The
place is occupied by Mr. . A. Bowersox, one of
his sons. The facts as near us we could learn
are substantially as follows : A number of chil
dren were playing on the straw stack, in front of
the barn, and it is thought they got some matches
and set the straw on fire, as this is where it was
first seen. He made all iossible baste to nntcn
it, but when became to the barn the fire bad.
made such headway that it was impossible to
save the building.' He then tried to save his
stock and farming implements. The horses and
cattle were all saved, so were some of the farm
ing implements, but the greater part, together
with his large crop of wheat and hay, was en
tirely destroyed. Duriug the fire the wind was
blowing from the south, driving the flames to
wards the house, which bad caught fire several
times, uud which was only saved from the lie
voiirinr flames through the heroic efforts of Mr.
Bowersox. The bam was !l large apd valuable
one, aud is a groat loss to both father and son.

The Gas Company having changed hands, wc
naturally thought there would lie changes iu its
management favorable to the consumers, that
the street lamps would be lighted before dark,
aud a discount or ten per cent., at least, allowed
Instead or five for prompt payment. But the
only change made is that no discount whatever
is now allowed for prompt payment. There may
be policy in the retrogrado movement, but we
can't see it, and it is certainly not practiced by
other gas companies. At Mahanoy City the dis
count is twenty per cent.
Ghani Warden 8. B. Boyer. of this place, has

o'clock.
AFTERNOON' SESSION.
The Convention rcascmblcd, when the com
mittee on resolutions reported the following :
J.'noU ttl, 1. That the Republicans of Northum
berland county, by their delegates iu convention
assembled, cordially approve and reaffirm the
platform of principles enacted by tho National
Republican party at its organization, and rean
nouueed in the resolutions and declarations of
political faith put forth by the law Republican
State Convention for the Stale or Pennsylvania,
assembled May 26, 1S75.
2. That the Republican party of tne United
States is the only National political party in the
country. It originated in the necessities of the
Nation ; adopted for Its government the vital
principles ol true Republicanism, as contained In
the Declaration of independence ; pledged itseir
to maintain the Constitution and preserve the
government intact ; with its beniirn authority re
spected in all the Stales and Territories, and
has nobly redeemed the pledge. No other party
known to the people ever had so grand a record
It saved the Union, sorely threatened by th
most wicked of rebellions ; has succeeded in tb
difficult tusk of reconstruction ; has cstablishc
freedom aud equality of right ror all the peoplg
has wisely administered the internal and foreifl
policy of the Government, and vindicated ta
etabiiity and power of the American Repubc
among the Nations.
3. That the good of the country imperative
requires that the Republican party should co
tinuo to administer the Government. Now,is
in 1861, it is acting on the defensive. Not ngalst
a formidable enemy in open aud armed rebcllin,
but agaiufcl nn organization we are compelledo
(littru"t. The patriot cannot fail to discover tat
the politicians of the late seceded States, nd
their northern sympathizers, leading tne ueio
cratic party, have not changed their princijes,
but only their policy. There are at this 'me
but two recogulzed political prties, the samehat
were arrayed against each other In tne ouie
Held agaiust rebellion. Each party is unitized
by the same principles ana impelled by the imc
motives now as before; the success of thoue
means continued peace, order aud prosjrity,
the success of the other forbodes strife, d tenter
and the surrender ot those principles for liich
patriots sacrificed their lives, and the vtual
abandonment of the licst fruits or the gradest
victory history records. Ve dare not trst to
promises merely, with the bitter experier'c or
the past burned into our memories. Wc cnuol
entrust the most sacred rights, liberties ad in
terests or the people in the hands of a arty
which can give us no security lor tne Intro iu
its record of the past.
4. Thut we earnestly urge all those wd, ior
any cause, are temporarily alienated friii the
Republican party, notwithstanding tlieyrclain
their faith in its" principles and doctrine! to be
guided by the impulses of their patriot m to
mutual concession, that we way ugalu oin in
earnest labor to maintain those prineipleiwhlch
created the Republican party at the callr our
country in the hour or its great peril. Be as
sured the patriotism or the Republican prty is
as pure, its doctrines ns wise, and its prposes
us honest now as in the infancy of its istory.
The mission of the Great Republican part Is not
ended, and its power will be demonstrald next
November hy a decisive triumph over tlr.com
bined enemies of the Union.
5. That more than ever we arc called upouto
sustain the policy of protection to American n-
dii6lry, the only policy wlucu can rniuer laior
contented and capital remunerative The strong
arm of the Government should snppjrt those wuo
toil.
6. The free schools of the country must be
maintained for the equal bcnelii or all clastes
and creeds ; in tnis lies the only practicable slice
of civil and religious liberty. His only know
ledge uud virtue that can preserve any jieopie.
7. That our gratitude to the soldiers and sai
lors of the Republic can never be fully expresscl,
nor our obligations to them fulfilled. We ca!l
upon them now, in this quiet and bloodless con
test, to again give their powerful aid and support
in maintaining those Republican principles which
are the best frulU and practical legacies of the
war. Wc appeal with confidence to the patriot
ism which saved U.; Nation, enfranchised the
the slave, and brongh". jeacc and a more pcrrect
rorm of government on of war, rebellion and
treason.
H. That the success of the present National
administration in reducing he public debt, di
minishing aud equalizing taxation, and its effi
ciency and economy in every branch of public af
fairs, justly entitle it to the confidence and com
mendation of every patriotic American.
9. That we take special pride in commending
the emiucntly wise, practical and statesmanlike
administration of Governor John F. Hartranft.
We most cordiall approve his renominatiou, and
pledge him an undivided support.
10. That we crdlally endorse the nomination
of Hon. Henry lawle, of Eric, ror State Treasur
er. His high personal character, mental and
educational qtalifications, his industry and in
tegrity, securl his nomination, and eminently
justify it.
11. That t confidence in the integrity, pru
dence and Ability of llou. Simon Cameron, rep
reaentinf the State Iu tltc Senate of the Untied
Mtatcs, i-undiminished.
2, nai we lasc cppcciai j ieasureiu renewing
CXpr'cjious of confidence in and regard for our
r,.prcntative in Congress, Hon. John B. Packer.
jlipS a rare combination of faculties and quaii
ti,, that inspire confidence, command respect
m' retain eefeem.
13. That wo fully endorse the course of J. J.
John, Esq., onr Representative in the Legislature
of Pennsylvania.
14. That it Is the duty of the government to
Invite and encourage immigration.
15. That the financial embarrassment now so
serionsly affecting the business of the country. Is
in nowise attributable to the principles or policy,
the doctrines or acts of the Republican party.
These periods of commercial panic aud disaster
come Inevitably upon all nations. The laws of
trade, like the laws of disease in the human sys
tem, are laws to themselves ; studied it is true
by many learned doctors, and discussed by a mul
titude of quacks, but the laws of disease and the
results remain. England and other nations of
the old world are at this time suffering more se
verely from financial disturbances than this coun
try, and such disasters have come upon us before,
under the administration or Thomas Jefferson, of
Andrew Jackson, and noticeably, under that of
Martin Van Buren, in 1837, when there was
scarcely left one solvent business house in the
great commercial aud manufacturing communi
ties. A similar disaster befell us under the ad
ministration of James Buchnnnac, when even
the credit of the Government itself was wrecked
and lost. We thank God that the Republican
party, coming into power when the Treasury was
bankrupt, and the credit of the Government al
most wholly destroyed, succeeded in bringing the
country out of its peril, through the crisis, and
through exhausting war and established the cred
it of the Government upon a firm basis. We may
boast with just pride that the credit of our Gov
ernment, at home and abroad, is now unshaken,
and the marvelous work done by the Republican
party has made the United States of America
among the nations, the wonder and admiration of
the world. These things being so, it U apparent
that onr financial embarrassments cannot long
endure, and is an argument for confidence and an
answer to the demagogue.

On motion, the Convention adjourned.
I)i. Lewis's New Book, "Chastity." For
several ycjrs past Dr. Dio Lewis has been the
most widely read or American authors on sub
jects era hygienic nature. He believes in plain
speaking, and in his new work, 'Chastity ; Or,
Onr Secret Sins,' he carries out this idea, with
character stic boldness and practical wisdom, en
forcing his statements with a wealth and felicity
of nrgunifiit and Illustration which are really re
markable. It is uot necessary to say of 'Chastity
that it Is written in the interests of pure and
high-tonal morality. This is sufficiently guar
anteed b; its author's name. In addition to this,
howcver,the book is supported by a strong array
of icslinonials from leading clergymen, physi
cians, fdacators, etc., whose names cannot fail
to carr weight. The comprehensive and prac.
tical cliracter of the work may be judged of
from aglancc at a few of the chapter ond sec
tion hods, as follows : 'Reason verm Passion,'
'Rooth; out Concupiscence,' 'Early Marriages,'
Marito Excesses,' 'Preventing Conception,'
'WomaTs Ruling Passion.' Fn tlcide,' 'Heredi
tary In ucnecs.' 'Masturbation,' 'Obscene Liter
ature,' Celibacy,' 'Advice to Young Mvn,' 'The
Social Ivil,' 'Nocturnal Emissious,' 'Cure for
Sexual .ongings,' 'Practical Suggestions.'
Iu br;f, 'Chastity' treats of the sexual rela
tions iiithcir higher aspects. While not what
is popuarly understood as a 'doctor book,' it is
emphalcally a book for self-culture aud self
help, l is calculated to cucourage and strength
en thos; who, accepting fully the divinely utter
ed truti that 'out of the heart arc the issues of
life,' lave set before themselves the noble Ideal
of a 'rare mind in a chaste body.' For all such,
whether married or single, it is a perfect store
house Df precept and, better still, of example,
worth more than gold. At the same time, it does
not pass by the unfortuuate, or even the erring.
It has welcome, helpful words, nnd wise, practi
cal rr nnpl for thcf n1?o.
'Chastity is sold entirely through agents, and
at a price within easy reach of all. The pub
lishers ars Messrs. George Maclean k Co. (Phila
delphia, Chicago, and Cincinnati). They may
be addressed at any of their three offices, accord
ing as one or the other happens to be the nearest.
The book will undoubtedly sell. Who wilfhavc
the enterprise to introduce it in this region ?
Local Correspondence.
Sntdertows, September 7, 1875.
Ji Editor:
Having a little leisure, and ap
preciating the correspondence you publish from
different parts of the county, I write you from
the ancient place known as Suydertowu. Hunt
ing in this vicinity, this season of the year,
is the principal occupation of our citizens as well
as our visitors. The report of the sportsman's
gun is heard in every direction.
The corn crop will be a very large ouc this
season. The farmers are very busy now in pre
paring to sow their wheat aud rye. There will
be a large yield of chestnuts this Tall, the burrs
being very large and well filled.
Some or our citizens had better have less deal
ings with the women in our town now-a-days,
or they might get into trouble, like some one did
in this place, who attempted to move a Tence
that was not on the line, aud received a severe
clubbing.
Mr. iVru. Farrow, or this place, has torn
down the old house adjoining his large brick
residence. He is building a new house on the
opposits corner, which makes a line appear
ance. The uev coach and wagon shop, of Mr. J.
Fry, is a great improvement to onr town. Mr.
Fry having employed none but the best work
men, and being an experienced mechanic and
business man himself, is able to turn out credit
able Jlud substanclal work.

The Multiplication or IMneases.
Diseases multiply. One begets another. A
trifling indisposition may, therefore, originate a
complication of dangerous maladies. Indiges
tion begets far more formidable diseases ; a mul
titude of ailments are traceable to constipation ;
fever and ague unhinges the entire nervous sys
tem, and Is therefore the source of the protean
ailments which affect that portion of the human
organism. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, how
ever, whether resorted to at the inception of
those disorders of the stomach, bowels or liver,
which give birth to the majority of diseases and
disabilities, or taken when they have ripened in
to formidable maturity, are alike powerful to
cure. The process of recovery is, of course,
longer when the malady has gained headway,
but it is none the less certain. Dyspepsia, com
bs! nation, billiousuess, kidney complaints and in
termittent fever, invariably yield to the opera
tion of the greaf alterative and invigoraut.

courteous manner, nil who became acquainted
with him learned to love him and none to despise

bor, and a friend.
