WiiiiAM Jackson, colored, who was tried'
convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary
last week tor breaking into the clothing s;ore of
Frank Wolf and stealing a lot of clothing, it
appears, had been fol lowing the same vocation
in Danville before be came to Suubury. Several
days prior to Mr. Wolf store being robbed.
Jacksou pawned a gold watch for seven dollar,
saying at the time that he would redeem it in a
few days. And when arrested, officer Vandyke
not only found the stolen clothing but a valua
ble gold bracelet with him. Mr. Vaudyke made
the fact kuown to the Chief of Police at Harris
burg, to whom Mr. William Biddle, of Danville,
feud from whom the watch and bracelet had
been stolen 1. had made application to interei-t
I biinaeir in it recoverv. The chief tclegiapiied
Mrs. Biddle to come to Sunbury and she would
' recover her property, which the did on lust Fri
day. She was very much elated in again hav
ing them in her possession. She returned with a
very good opinion of the Sunbiiry police.
Fikk Bkick Clay. A few ecks ago we re
ferred to the diseoverv of tire brick clay on the
farm of Mr. John Fry, of Upper Augusta town
ship. The clay w.ts discovered several months
ago while digging lor irou ore The tire clay
veiu it about eight feet in thickness underneath
two email veiui- ol iron ore. The c:ay h.o been
regulurly tested, and is pronounced the very be.l
for stove ware or brick for furnaces. The long
er it is heated the harder it becomes. The Vein
is only tne mile from Ketfer's station, on the
line of the Shamokiu Div. N. C. railroad, and is
easy of access, if parties whj understand the
bus:uess of making Ore brick were to secure the
rkht to manufacture at this place.it could be
made a paying busiuess, as any quantity of the
clay can be had, aud the cost of manufacture
would be far less than anywhere iu the country.

creased so rapidly that they have been twice
coinpe.led to enlarge their buildiug for manufac

have become an enterprise of immense
business through their great care in furnishing a
Crsl-ciats article. Orders are received from ail
parts of the country, niid t!ie demand is greatly

flatted, Mr. Ira T. Ciemeiil, one of the inoM en

hi plauiug mill aud sash factory building, aud
also commenced the manufacture of coffin. We
are glad to learn that he too has been very suc

coffins manufactured at these two manufactories
are spoken of abroad as the best in the mar ket.

On Wednesday last we bad a call from two
"Knights of the Quill," Messrs. C. VV. Guielius,
of the Northumberland Vw, and J. J. Auteu,
ol the Wntsontown Record. A happier set of
editors we have not seen for some time. What
muKCS them happy is the result of the late elec
tion. Mr. Gutciius, though a very unassuming
gentleman, -talks of large investments, whiie
Auten still dings to hi agency of selling Col
ardo grasshopper. He lately took a trip to the
citj of "brotherly love," aud ou the route, by
bis nohlt appearance, was taken for Col. Scott
the great railroad kiug, which enraged him so
much that he made au attack upon the "Sub
scriber" setting behind the door of a palace car,
wearing fashionable eye glasses, aud armed
with a bass drum aud a glockmtpitl for the pur
pose of furnishing music tor an excursion party.
While Auteu made the attack the "Subscriber"
informed him that be once belonged to the Texas
Rangers, which cooled Autei's temper, and after
a mutual explanation, he passed through the
car offering roxes of Colorada grasshoppers.
We rather guess that our neighbor of the Pr$t
intends entering into partnership with Auten,
aud then the grasshopper trade will be lively.

this county h is related to us the following joke
on himself. The candidate, we must not omit
to mention, is unable either to talk or under
stand German. Like all office seekers he was
anxious to hunt up the prominent men in" each
townshtD. and having learned that a ceitaln
fanner In Lower August a Cornwall ledconsi I ra
ble influence he determined at once to hunt the
farmer up and get into his good graces. A car
riage was procured aud in due time the point of
destination was reached. The farmer was
ploughiug in a field, between which and the pub
lic road a swamp intervened. The candidate
tied his horse and tried to pass over the swamp
bv climbing along on a post fence, but he hud
not goue f t before a rail gave way anJ the office
seeker was "soused" in about three feet of wa
ter. Without a single drv garment on ins per-
son, the candidate w as a pliable looking otiject
when he regained tekua fikma.
The funnei witne-sed all this hut never stop
ped work. Then the candidate loaded up an I
drove around about h tif mile through a piece
of woods and struck the field on the other side.
15y this lime the agriculturist h id reached tin
farther end of the ticld and did not seem in a
hurry to return. So the candidate started over
the ploughed ground, the mud adhering to hi
wet i arinenls in large quantities, weighing hi
down until he could hardly walk, rinally in
fariuci was reached uud taking a seat on hi:
plough he iu dignified siieuee gasl at the de
moralized office seeker and awaited the an
nouuecmeut of his business The O. F. began to
expatiate on his cUims and liiuess f r the olllc
sought, spoke of the high standing, intelligence
aud influence of the farmer whom he was ad
dressing, and at the end of aliout twenty min
utes asked nis rustic auditor if he had commit
ted hime.l to auy person lor the office in ques
tion, and if not whether the humble patriot
speaki .g could hope lor his inUiu-uce. The far
iner who had been lir-tcuing attentively to th.
eloquent ap;eal, rose up and replied "Nix fer
s'hay English !' an 1 continued his ploughing.
The candidate was not sucee-sful in getting I'm
nomination he wanted, and he says that after
the discouragement aud mishaps of that day he
fell as if politic w iMl't Ins "best holt." 4 he

Fire in tub West Ward. On Saturday eve
nlngafire broke out In a frame building on
Market street owned by J. II Adams, late can
didate for Sheriff. The upper pnrt and the rear
or the building is occupied by Mr. Adams as a
dwelling, and the store room is rented by Coun
cilman R. G. Eisenhart. The fire originated In
a closet up stairs and is suposed to have been
caused by a lamp coming in contact with wear
ing apparel that was hanging iu the closet.
When discovered the flames had made consider
erable headway, but buckets were promptly
brought into requisition and the fire was gotten
under control without the ceeessity or auy aid
from the department hose. The fire department
was however prompt to respond to the alarm
and was ready lor action in a very short time
cou-idering the distance some of the companies
had to go.
The damage to the building Is about SSS and
the ioss iu damaged clothing and furniture will

r fi Honorable Wm. M. Rockefeller, President
Judge of Xorthvmlerland county, and Auociate
Judge :
Yolk Honors : We, the Grand Inquest, in
quiring In and for the couuty of Northumber
land, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, respect
fully report,
1 hat we have attended to all the business sub
mitted to us.
We have acted on fifty-one bills, twenty-eight
of which have been returned "true bills," and
twenty-three "ignoramus."
Of the bills ignored, especially of those charg
ing a felony, we regret to say that the greater
number failed, because neither the prosecutor or
witnesses could be obtained, although repeated. y
called.
From the best information we could gat ler, it
would appea that many of the justices of I tie
peace do not take ativ recognizance from the
prosecutor for the prosecution ot the c ise. or if
l iney do, irresponsible parties ate accepted.
e desire, especially in this connection, re-
spectfully to call attention to ihe general neglect
on the part of justices of the peace of the pro
visions of the act of Assemb v of May 8th,
I454, requiring theiu to make their return ten
lays previous to the meeting of court. The ex
isting practice of wiluhol ling returns until
within a day or two of the meeting of court is
beiieved to be not only in violation of la, but
seriously detrimental to the public interest. It

building, log -iher wittl the several offices be-
giug to it, and also the jail. We rind the
Court House building in general good repair,
with the exception ol a leaky root and damage
resulting from such leaks. We recoiii.iiend the
prompt and thorough repair of these delects,
nd that such repairs be hereafter promptly
ii i-it- without wailing till serioin damages re
sult.
We find the several offices neatly kept and in
good order. No special recoiumeiiiliilioiib are
leeined uecessary except for the Prothonolary's
iffice, for which we recitit'iunid the piocitriiig ol
new double, wriiiug desk, also so:iij re-ar
rangement of th; existing furuiiur.; to promote
ne general convenience.
We also iecoiii.iie.ii i the adoption iu the Pro-
tliouolary's office of Campbell's new index sys
tem in six books ; il the costs of the looks, to
etiier with the transcribing, shall not exceed
.our ii n n. 1 red doMms.
We recommend for the Grand Jury room of
i it in. I e.i.u racks, a much needed convenience.
We visited the jail and lin t it inucu Uu worse
ti account of age. It was a creditable struc-
ire to our grandfathers, who, in their poverty.
built it. but us usefulness has ceased an 1 it
IioiiM give place lo another.
We dee.il it unsuitable iu arrangement-, ;i;t
su.iicictu in c.ioacity, an ! unlit in other respect-
or the proper rcxtrauil aud treatment ol pri?o
iters. We have no recommendations lo inaKc. in
icgard to it excep' for the purchase of one dozen
t liiitiomil blankets for the use ol the piisouers.
We believe that prisoners who are not confirmed
tud hardened criminals should be treated with a
view to their reformation and reclatiuation to
lie paths of virtue, and that they ought not 'to
e thrown into coiupauiou-iiip witu abaudousJ

We therefore lecomiuend the erection of a uew
jail of suitable arrangements for the separate
accommodation of prisoners. We recomineu.L
that il be of neat uhd tasteful desigu, subslan

A e recommend that il be built with a view to1

That wc. have carefully investigated the iu li
ter referred to by the examination of books and
papers from the Commissioners' office au I other
.-ourct'S having reference to said sale, aui by In-:
examination of witnesses under oath,
We ll.id no evidence of fraud, corruption, mis
appropriation of coai.ty funds, uor auy uulaim
lulues whatever on the part of tho county Com
missioners. No charges lu auy way reflecting; on the ticr
soual integrity or official conduct of any of llu
Commissioners were preferied before us.
Iu view of previous experience, in tUe. matter
of lax sales, we believe the County Commission
ers' were juslilled iu entering into l!:e contract
which they made witti li. M. Uuuimings, and
lual it resulted in cousiderable pecuniary ad
vantage to the cougty.
We tlul that Mr. Cuiniuiugs, ou his pan, has

The mode is simple and in this way :

And in Northumberland and no other county

The Best Protection.
The best safeguards against epidemic disease
are thorough digestion and firm nerves, It is
because they assure the regular permormauce of
the dijestive process, and invigorate the nervous
sy-tem, that Hosteller's SlomaSh Bitter are
such a sovereign pioleilive against the influen
ces which beget intei initiaiil maladies, and
those which directly ull'ect the stomach und
bowels. If the nerves are hcullhfully tranquil,
the assimulutiou of food perfect, as they are
to be under the influence ol this standard ionic
and nervine, malaria may ! di tied ; and if, jo
the absence of the most reliable of medical safe
guanle, the system has fallen a prey to disease
of an intermittent type, tne Bitters will, if per
sisted in, eradicate every vistige of the malady,
Billiou-nes-, constipation and dyspepsia yield
th equal certainty lo the operation of this po
tent Vegetable alterative.
We would like to give you a price list of our
cheap goods, but our stock is to big too cuumers
ile all our goods. But giving you the price
will not enable you lo judge of the goods; they
mit-t be seen. If I tell you that wo have a
big stock of ladies' und children's furs, all new
yonds, and sell children' sets as low as 70 cents
i.nd ladies' sots as low us f 2, from the cheapest
to the best, all in proportion, you may think it
'lard to believe. But il is so. The goods were
bought Tor cash down ul a figure much below
cost. They couid have been sold again in the
city at a good profit, but we preferred to bring
goons here and give our customers a chance to
buy below city prices. Our sable furs are of
the best kind in the market, at a low price,

TnE LIGHT RUNNING "DOMESTIC."
The "Domestic."
The "DOMESTIC" is an exceedingly simple
machine in all its parts and processes. It is
easily understood ; familiarity with its action is
very quickly acquired, and it needs hardly any
practice ot s, eciai sk.ui in tuo operator.
The superior advantages ootamea in toe "vv
mestic" are mainly :
1. Light Running.
2. Quietness uo Cams or Gear WheeU.
3. Perfect Stitch Double-thread Lock StHcta.
4. Durability arising from Simplicity of Con
struction.
5. Absence of all Friction.
S. Great range of Work.
7. Ease or Operation.
We do not say that the "Domestic" is the only
Machine worthy of public ravor. We admit
there are some possessing real and acknow
ledged merit ; but we do claim, and are prepared
to demonstrate, that the "Domestic" has many
excellences that reuder it decidedly Htperior to
any other Machine now before the public.
Let every woman, thcreforeexamine for ter
slf into its merits when she buys a machine.
This is an important purchase, not to be care
lessly made ; one that will influence her com
fort, probably for a long time. With a "Domes
tic" In her possession, she will find her sewlntj
become a pleasant exercise of skill and taste, In
stead of a slow manual drudgery ; she will have
the time and strength to add beaay and elegance
to work in which before she has been obliged to
content herself with bare tillt7 .
