Let there be a full turnout.
As this is the season for political news we have
devoted much of our space to politics. But one
week more, and we will again fall back to the
routine of locals and general news.
Several locals and correspondents have been
crowded out this week for want of room. If our
patrons were all punctual in paying np we think
we could talk about enlarging our paper again.
It Is now the cheapen paper published in this
and adjoining counties, and by paying np punc
tually, so that we need not waste much time in
collecting, it would give ns still a better cbanca
for improving-"

Tbe Life and Labors of Dr. David Livingstone
renowned Explorer of Southern and Central
Africa, written by that graphic writer. Rev. J.
E. Cbambliss, will be found to be of marvelous
interest. Thousands of strange and enrious
things never before heard of, will be found in
this book. His adventures during thirty years
of singularly strange experience In traveling
many thousand miles among savage, wild beasts,
deadly reptiles, insects, through J uagles.tnarshes,
rivers, forests, over mountains and lakes, have
for variety and thrilling Interest, no parallel in
real life or scarcely in flctioa. This is work now
offered at a reasonable rrlce through agents.
Mr. James Washington, of this place, hat re
ceived tbe agency for ibis place, and will re
ceive the names of al' who may desire it.

have long been forgotten. Those comrades
whose bones were left to bleach upon the battle
field will again be brought to memory, and si
lent tears shed for the departed ones who were
banded with tbem to defend the best government
upon earth from treason. Many loved comrades
will again be thought or and the many trials and
hardships endured together, to protect their, kin
dred homes from a government of despots, be
fore they fell in line of battle. An address will

A Centennial excursion party passed through
this place on Wednesday at 4 o'clock p. m.t com
posed of business men of Buffalo, Niagara Falls,
Dunkirk, Erie, Cleveland, Toledo, Chicago, and
other western cities. The train was a large one,
consisting of five Pullman palace cars aud two
others. The cars were tastefully decorated with
flags neatly festooned. The name of each car
was conspicuously di splayed in large letters on a
shield in tbe centre. The name of tbe cars were
"Chicago," "Milwaukee," "Toledo," "Cleve
land" and "Buffalo," with the word "Centen
nial. 1STG," inscribed in conspicuous letters right
below tbe name. Tbe combination car contain
ed a bountiful supply of commissary stores, be
sides a squad of six artillerymen from Buffalo,
with a small brass cannon, which they fired
three times on approaching large towns on tbe
rontc.
Mr. Josiab Ray, superintendant of locomotives,
was detailed to ran the traiu to Harrisburg. He
had engine No. 132, one of tbe most powerful on
the road. The train started at Williarasport at
2:40 and reached Harrisburg at 5:55, making
the run in three hours and ten minutes. The
distance is ninety-four miles. A short stoppage
was made at this place to change engines, and
another at Georgetown to take water.
The party was composed of leading business
men and journalists, wbo went to Philadelphia
ou the invitation of the merchants and business
men of that city.
Toe Ring tax collector in this place who
"knows all about the Democratic party,". ind
who pretends to be as sharp as a steel trapi "and
lives upon his wits and off the Democratic party,
was somewhat taken in by a stranger.on whom he
intended to play a trick by getting him to attend
tbe Democratic meeting on Wednesday evening.
Collector Rickey it appears was appointed usher,
and was stationed at the front door of the Court
House, when a stranger approached him and in
quired whether court was in session, it being
court week. Rickey replied, yes, and accom
panied the strauger to the court room where
tbe Democratic meeting was being organized.
The President and a number of Vice Presidents
being on the stand, the stranger tooR a good
look at all of tbem tben turned to Collector
Rickey and said, "O say stranger which of those
d d rascals is to be arraigned first." Tbe collec
tor thinks the stranger is far f rom being a Demo
crat. A Father Shoots His Son. A sad case of
shooting occurred at the residence of Frederick
Rat h Ion in West Perry township, about one-half
mile east of Richfield, on Monday night last.
The facts iu the case, as reported to us, are as
follows: Thomas Bunion, the only sou of
Frederick, bad been away from home nearly all
day, on Mon-iay. About 10:30 p. ra., he came
borne drunk (both father and son and tbe fami
lies occupied the same dwelling), ne commenc
ed to beat his wire with tbe intent, it is said, to
kill her. His mother coming to her assistance,
he turned arouned and began to cboke ter, but
he soon round that his rather Interfered.
Thomas was about Using a knife, but throwing
it upon tbe floor and breaking It to pieces, he
went tor bis gun. With this be approached his
father, and as the latter had nothing to defend
himself with but a pistol, tbe contents of which
he discharged at his sou, ihd ball entered bis
breast and lodged In his right shoulder. Tbe
wound did not cause him to drop, and he at
once started towards the barn. His fat her en
treated him to return, but this be refused to do,
aud it was only at the request or some or his
neighbors tbat be was fina ly persuaded to do so,
they having been attracted to the scene by hear
ing bis shrieks. Upon examination by Drs.
Weimer and Ueckert it was round tbat the pa
tient might recover. It is said, tbat the young
man has a violent temper when he takes to
drinking and that his repeated threats are both
ad and alarming. Fmbwg Courier.
About Steel Pens. Few persons doubtless
are aware or the fact tbat the orlgioal inventor
or Steel Pens is still living. Sir Joslah Mason,
uow the great pen manufacture of Birmingham,
Eugland, now enjoys tbat distinction. He Is
now very old, being above eighty. It is in liis
great factory tbat several of Um moot popular
of tbe widely fame I Spencerian Double Elastic
Steel Peus are made, the models Deing supplied
by the proprietors of the pen, Messrs. Ivison,
Blakcrnan. Taylor & Co., the Educational Pub
lishers of New Tork. The Spcncciian Pens
have attained their great popularity from a va
riety of reasons, all or which will be apparent
to any one wbo may try them. Of one number
aloue more than aix millions were sold last year.
We use them in our office, and are so well
pleased with them that we have no hesitation in
saying tbat they are, in our opinion, superior to
any other article or the kiud with which we are
acquait led. Their chief characteristics seem to
be flexibility, elasticity, durability and evenness
or point, and a nearer approximation to the real
quill acliou than has been heretofore- attained in
a steel pen. Tbe Spencerian are comprised in
fifteen numbers, all differing iu flexibility and
fineness of point, and for tbe convenience of
those wbo wish to try them Messrs. Ivison.
Biakemao, Taylor & Co., 13$ and 140 Grand
street, New Tork, will send by mail a sample
curd, securely enclosed, coniaiulug one each or
the diBeieut numbers, on receipt or twenty-five
rents.
Mt. Carvel Items Mich Blow. The good
eople or Ml. Carinet were vitiled on Wednesday
cveuing last by a man representing himself a
Signor Blitz, who advertised the performance or
miracles, and the giving away or presents worth
al leas, as much as the entrance fee, "aud a
cbauce lor tbe larger ones." Those circulars
were not worth much after the performance was
over, home of the audience aflcrwurds exhibit

fraud. Another proof that advertising pays.

Attempt to Break Jail. On Sunday nigbt
Inst, says tbe Daily, John Stewart, confined for
the larceny of a pair of pantaloons, attempted to
break out of the 8unbury Jail. Together itb
two other persons he occupied a cell on the se
cond floor, and during tbe night ha dug a bole
through tbe wall or the jail and let himself down
Into the yard by means or a blanket. He at
tempted to dig through the yard wall bnt findiug
it too much of a Job be began to climb up to his
room for more iron to dig wilb, but before be
reached his window the blanket broke, letting him
fall a distance of about teu feet, breaking his
right leg near the ankle. Dr. Clark was sent for
who set the broken member. So quietly did
Blewart work tbat even his room males did not
hear him.

Lov.ek Augusta, Oct. 13, 1875.
Etliter America :
The appropriate notice of the
death of Mrs. Pleasants, in your last issue,
turns tbe tide of memory back to the year 1815.
Six years ago ! An English lady. Miss Crosby,
taught a school in what is now called Walnut
Btrcet. She gave Instruction in spelling, reading,
writing and plain and fancy needlework, to a
number or the young misses of that period. A
few small boys were admitted on condition of
strict obedience to the "Mistress," and courtesy

spectable in length, was assigned to the reading
boys, to be committed to memory, intlanter, or
be kept in after school. This generally kept us
close at work. The parents and teacher of those
pupils have all passed away. Of the young
misses who developed into womanhood, and rea

perienced the cares and anxieties of human ex
istence, Maria Donnel (the late Mrs. C. D.

Editor American :
As I have been silent for some
time, I thocght proper to communicate a rew
items from this end or the connty and vicinity.
Some time ago a farmer in this township by
the name ol Emanuel Bohner, had his left band
dreadfully cut by a thrashing machine, while
in the act of thrashing timothy seed, and be got
bis hand eutaugled in feeding the thrasher, and
the cy lender caught the band and cut the index
finger off, and the next two in such a manner that
amputation was necessary. Dr. Wm. Raker
from Cniontown dressed his hand, and the pa
tient is doing well.
A hog disease Is prevailing in Lykens valley.
It is reported that one man lost fourteen hogs
In a few days time. Others also lost all their
hogs. Michael Bpotz In Lower Mahanoy town
ship, this county, lost four hogs. This is tbe only
case I know of in this connty. It is thought
that the disease originated from the potatoe
beetle. The hogs running at large arc the nio6t
subject to the descasc.
A full crop of oats and corn was raised at th'.s
e,nd of the county, and the farmers are making
preparations for husking their corn.
I have no larceny or stealing to report this
time, except a neighbors hogs and cows are out
every night stealing their liviug from some or tbe
farmers fields. Likely the hogs may bo subject
I to the disease which may originate from dogs.
Some preparations are being made to turn out
full vote for tbe whole Republican ticket at
ol'" next election. Success to the candidates.
