Manning, of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, has invented a patent safety switch lock, and applied it to a switch stand also invented by him. The lock is so arran ged that when the switch points are thrown for the main track they are automatically locked in that position, and cannot be thrown for the side track until it has been unlocked by a key made especially for the purpose. The usuaf custom of brakemeu to hammer I.n-ks nn with a coupling pin, which has caused so m i ny wrecks, will be impossible when the Manning lock is used. The switch stand is a verticle lever showing a signal only when the switch points are throw n for the side track. The lock will lie placed on switches at various (siints along the Baltimore and Ohio lines ior a thorough trial. . m A terrible accident oecm red at Mr. Nelson Shaiilis' lime quarry, near ip"sville, in Somerset Township, alsiut four o'clock Fri day afteni.Min. There were only two men at work ill the quarry at the time. Stewart Putniau and Benjamin Fisher. They had been blasting the lime stone, using giant powder for anjcxplosive. A blast that they had prepared would not discliarge, when Putmati went to work to drill it out. He had only been at the task V short time w lion his dril, coming iu contact with some of the mw.ler. caused it to explode with terrific li.rce. sending fragments of stone in every directitHi. Put man's left hand was torn al most torn off, and hishead and face were frightfully cut and gashed by the flying missiles. B. it h of his eyes wen? blown out, and it is thought that death will shortly re sult from his injuries. Should he live, he will lie totally blind. He ia a married man, with a large family. Fisher was considera bly cut and bruised about tlie fate and brail, but was not seriously injured. For some months past the impression has been gaining ground thai there was some thing wrong with the borough scales and that our peopl were being greatly swindled in the weight of the coal, hay, etc they were purchasing. One tlay last week one of our prominent citizens orlered a load of coal from a local dealer and when the bill was presented ftr payment was astounded to find that the weigh bill called for 72 bushels. He refused to pay tlie bill and bad the coal rack ed and measured. By actual measurement the load contained .VI bushels of coal. A pe tition, largely signed by prominent citizens, was gotten up and presented to the borough authorities requesting them to have tbe scales tested. Tbe authorities complied with the prayer of the petitioners and the test disclosed the fact that the scales were terri bly out of gear, weighing at least twenty fire per cent, too strung. The authorities at once telegraphed Sir a new set of scales sad suspended, for the time being, tlie ordinance compelling all dealers to have weighed all bay, coal, etc, sold within the boroagh lim its. Just bow much our citizens have been gulled out of within tbe past three or (bar years in this way it would bedifScult to esti mate. Of eoorae the dealers, who alone have profited by this defective weighing, are in no way Kapensibis. Thw Jackson Cm Wall.

The Warren county court reversed the decision of 'Spline Cornelius. And now comes the Supreme Court with a decision reversing the lower court and affirming the judgment of the Justice of the Peace. This means that book agent must pay municipal licenses the same as other peddler.- Pennsylvania Governors. Since 1790 tliere have been twenty Gov ernors of Pennsylvania.

A Woman of Nerve. Mrs. H. F. Bns.ks.ofStauffcrs, Westmore land county, 011 last Thursday escaped from terrible injury, if not death, and her escape must be attributed to her own wonderful nerve, says theCoiinellsville.OiwKirr. A fine cow with twin calves belonging to the lady was iiasturing iu a neighboring field. The owner went out alone to see her, ad just as she turned to leave the field the cow, with lowered head, rushed towards her. The lady was struck in the side and thrown to the ground by the force of the unexecied at tack. She did not lose herprescuce of mind, hut, grabbing the bonis, she held the enrag ed animal until her cries brought assistance and she was rescued from her perilous posi tion. Big Time Court Week.

Success to the en terprise. Frank Nickels has everything ready for his new house, which he contemplates erect ing next summer.

The Henry Baker Sheller Company are running their lime quarry in Fayette county for all tliere is in it. From twenty-five to thirty teams arc run daily hauling limestone during the sledding season. Tliere is as much lime burned and used here as there is in any other rt of the county. It fwys, hoys. Mike, Next Year's Weather. J. Williams Thome, of Lancaster county writes to the West Chester filing Rttord as follows : " The wiuter of 1M87-8 will be a a moderate one. There will lie but few cold days ; scarcely any in which tlie mercury in the th.rnionietcr will stand at or below zero; there will in it be more than three or lour weeks of gtsI sleighing, most likely, not so much as that. Tlie Delaware river at Phila delphia will not be so firmly frozen over as to seriously obstruct navigation. There'will not he more than one heavy snowfall ; mint proliahly not any that will oi (struct the high ways. Spring will open more than usually early. Oats will be sown and potatoes plan ted before the end of March. There will be no frosts in April or May sufficiently severe to injure the fruit. The wumnier will be 1110.Wrat.ely warm with enough rain to insure gtssl crops of grain and grass generally. The crops of wheat and corn will be more than usually heavy. Apples, peaches, pears and cherries will he abundant antl of a good quality. . . " The basis of these predictions is the well known a-ttrononical (act that the earth, tbe sun and the nvain occupy very nearly the same position every Ift years, and that the heat of the sun, the attraction of tlie sun and moon and the revolution nf the earth on its sxts, sie the chief cause of all the movements in the earth's atmosphere. It is true that the larger plants exert a perturbing influence sufficient to mollify these attrxst pherie phenonena resulting from the sun and moon. Rut thus perturbing influence is sraicely (t it excel wbeo the attracting force of several planets is exerted in the same or nearly tbe same direction. Whatever the amount of this perturbation it is susceptible of calculation, and no doofct it will be deter mined in tbe near future." Wanted! Hides, Furs, Bark. I will pay the highest cash prices for all kinds of hides, pelts and furs. I also want Sou oords of Rock Oak and Spruce bark. H. O. CvnrwoBAM. Ceneert. ' The singing class conducted ty B. I.

Judge Biddle, of Philadelphia, delivered an opinion, which is not only valuable to the merchants and bankerr of Pennsylvania, but to every man who has dealings with hanks or who receive checks in payment of either goods sold, loans made, or ftir any other purpose. The rase was the Ptsfe Na tional Rank of Xew Jersey atrainst Ahraliam Weil, and It was on the rile for jturdnient for want of asiiffieient affidavit of defense. The Judge, altera lenghty opinion, con cludes by saving: Thetnle, therefore, b well estahll-ed In the two greatest eommerrial cities of the world, that check on a bank, where all the parties are residents of the same city, must 1 . . , - t ne presemci on rne nay upon waicn u itears date, or on tlie next nay, ana 11 not, me nsK of the solvency of the drawee is upon the payee. We think that rule should be applied to this rase, there being no circumstances to except it from its oeralioin, ami that the delay in the presentation of the check was unseasonable. The defendant ia therefore not responsible for its boo-payment. The rule for judgment is discharged. Literary Notes. - ' A posthumous essay entitled " In rHckens Land." will appear in the Christmas Scrib nrr't by Edwin Percy Whipple, tbe late critic and lecturer, who waa cne of tbe most ar- a . .i . r .w... r s..l. dent atlniiren of tbe genius of Charlea Dickens. Precious stones are not a staple of this j country but an article in Ifarper't Christmas ! number on this subject furnishes much in- j teresting information in regard to such gems as have been found. It is written by George F. Ktinz. the leading American authority on this subject. iMamomls of pmtr quality have been lacked up in America outside of jewel- ." lent ahtipa, but Mr. kuus uukea it clear that the rto-ut alleged iliscoverit of th.-ae ' prertous things in Kentucky amount to nothing. But sapphires, however, and spin- j els who will find the lost bed of them in! Orange County ? crystals of topaz, beryls, ' garnets (the finest in the world), tourma lines, amethysts and turquoises are obtained in several localities in considerable profu sion. The most striking feature of the arti- tie is the lithtograpiusi page of these gems. Doubtless it is the best tuaisizine lithograph ! of its kind ever produced. The usual nam- f her of impressions for color ou such work j does not exceed a half a dozen, but surely , twenty must have been needed to get the . fine effect of the gems on this sheet. It is a new departure for Ilartar t colored pages. Ilobert Louis .Stevenson's remarkable hal- ! lad of " Ticontlcroga," which will appear in ' the Christmas tierihiitr't, will be splendidly 1 illustrated from drawings made by two of . the author's friends William Hole. A. K. 8. A., and Will H. Low, the American art ist and illustrator of Ijimia," to whom Mr. Stevenson recently in scribe. I two em. Mr. M11r.1t Halstea.l, editor of the Cincin nati L'ommerciitl G'tzette, has written an essay in which he tabulates the white and colored vote in the Southern States by ismgressional districts and by Stales, in supsrt of the proposition that the iK-niocratic party in the South has nullified the war amendments to theCoiistitution. He declares that the great I political issue next year is not merely I whether the Democratic party shall retain control of the Executive Dcimrtnient of the Federal f iovertiment, but whether thecoun- ! trv shall run the risk of IVmocratic control I - ! of the Senate and the Supreme Court also. by which, he expresses fear, the war amend ments to the Constitution may tie declared invalid. This essay is contributed to the FtMitm for Ilecember. Resolutions of Respect. To fir Oj&rrrt find JftWter nf Sumritet LiAgt. .V... 4:.s. . o. 0.
