ifir.An awful disaster at sea occurred
on, Tuesday April 1. The ship atlantic,
from Liverpool, England, for New York,
having • run short of coal attempted to
make Halifax, Novo Scotia, and in so_do,
ing ran on the rocks and sank. She had
on board about 1000 persons, of whom.
700 are thought to have been lost. Not
a, woman or child was saved, and as the
ship sank suddenly most were drowned
in their berths, as it was night when the
vessel struck. The papers are filled with
accounts of this great, disaster, but only
one thing is positively known by way of

lerOn-Monday.,a , week, 'Prof. Danald
son made a balloon ascension at Reading,
in which he repeated some of his daring
feats in mid air. There was no basket,
and the aeronaut started holding by his
left hand to a trapeze bar, suspended by
two ropes from the balloon. While ris
ing, ho .waved his handkerchief with his
right hand.- At an altitude of several
hundred feet, he Whirled 'round and 'round
and-then-tooklis seat on the bar. When
a thousand feet high, he placed his back
on the bar, and extended his hands and
feet. A few minutes later, he dropped.
backward, head first, and caught himself
by his toes ; thus hanging, head downward,
he ascended higher, still waving his hand
kerchief to the horror-stricken multitude
below.
liax.The wretched ruffian Nixon, who
shot down a man in the streets of New
York withotit provocation, has shown him
self to be a miserable coward since his con
viction. Presuming on the impunity which
murderers have heretofore enjoyed in New
York, and relying upon his able counsel,
through whose dexterous dust throwing
many a red-handed, villian has escaped the
gallows, this rowdy maintained a bold and
defiant front until the foreman of the jury
before which he was tried pronounced the
awful words, "Guilty of murder in the
first degree." Then he gave way to fear
and
. dread, and trembled and wept as if
he supposed himself to be standing on the
fatal platform. Ms nervous prostration
continues, and it is said that he will hard

tion.
ItairDr. R. T. Trail, in the Philadelphia
Star, is a very cheerful prophet. He says
that we are approaching the climax of a
pestilential period. From 1880 to 1885
the planets of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus
and Neptune will approach the earth
nearer than they have been for 1800 yrs.
Whenever any one of the foul have come
near enough for us to feel its influence,
pestilence, famine and extremes of .heat
and cold have been found the result- Now
we are to have the influence of the four_
combined, and he predicts that in seven
years from now all manner of evil which
grows out of atmospheric changes will be

world is urged to use the strictest sanita

Mrs Orr.—A frightful run-off took
place on Monday afternoon.. Mr. Frank
lin Miller brought a two-horse; load of
wood to town. He left the team on the
street opposite the saddler shop of Wm.'
P. Weagly, in care of a lad. The horses
started and before they could be reached
by any one were in full flight down street-
Mr. Miller was at Minter's Hotel where
he attempted to arrest them. by taking
hold of the bridle of one of them. He was
thrown to the ground narrowly escaping
being run over by horses and wagon.—
On - reaching -the-hill—nearly-opposi te-the
shops of the Waynesboro' Manufacturing
Company, the horses were arrested. Had
not the hill intervened the destruction of
the wagon would doubtless have been com
plete. As it Was no damage was' done
and. the scattered cord sticks were soon .
replacel on the wagon.
SPEUFG TRADE.—From the indications
apparent on all aides, we will have a live
ly spring trade, Our merchants and busi
ness men generally, are engaged in bright
ening up their establishments for • the o
pening of trade, and it is to lie hoped that
their expectations may be realized, as the
past winter season has been to them any
thing but a prosperous one. Money still
continues to be in great demand, bat there
is evidently more confidence felt at pres
ent than has been for some time, and as
a consequence a greater buoyance is ex
pected. A good spring business, with good
prices for the production of our farmers,
would restore matters wonderfully in this
section of country.
Frnma nat.—Shad are now retailing
three for $l,OO and herring at 25 cents
per dozen. Our town is regularly supali
ed this , season by the different dealers with
a prime . article direct • from Baltimore.
Waynesboro' Station on the W. M. R. R.
although four miles from town and al
most on top of the mountain, is still a
great convenience to our citizens. The
communica'ion is such that in a few hours
any article desired in the city can be de.
livered here. But how much better would
be the advantage and convenience with a
depot at our town instead of the mountain,
and yet such a result is attainable beyond
all per-adventure. A stoat subscription
of fifty or sixty thousand dollars would
suffice.
ifirThe report that times are hard, and
money hard to get hold of, is an old song
but we think we heard it o ft ener and with
more solemn earnestness, this spring, than
ever before. Let's have a Net up," every
fellow go round and pay off his little debts,
and it is surprising what a big business a
very small sum will do, in that way, and
how much improved will be the tone
of the business community. Commence

the community by the magnificent church

Board of six Teachers under the supervi
sion of .Prof. P. Bentz; we are led. to con
elude that these people are either unusu
ally liberal, or exceedingly wealthy, and
so far as I have knowledge, both are true.
I was told that the Presbyterian Church
cost upwards of six thousand donors, En
glish Lutheran, 'eleven thousand ; M. E.,
twelve thousand ; Reformed, twenty thou
sand, and the school house, including the ,
heaters, twenty-one thousand 'dollars. .All

doubt whether a parallel to this can be
found in oar State, in proportion to the
size and population of the town.

quaintance with the ministers of the dif
ferent denominations, and was cordially
received.' I presented the Bible Cause be
fore several of their churches, and receiv

promises of donations during the next

(Rev. F. Dyson) may glean during his
contemplated visit to that place if his
health will permit, as I left the place for
him to canvass reghlarly. I, how.ever,
had
. th 9 honor of spending a short time
with. a few of the most aged and venera
ble citizens of the town, viz.: Gen. James
Burns, who is in the 88th year of his age ;
Elias Homer, .87th ; Elias Earbaugh;
83rd; A. Hamilton, 81st, and his estima
ble' wife iu her 73rd year. I also, in that
neighborhood, met with a.friend, Henry
Summers, whom I had not seen for forty
two years. His silver locks are an indic
ative of the frosts of many winters. His
donation to the Bible cause wao an evi
dence to me that his heart was in unison
with the irculation of the Ho]y Scrip
tures.
r visited the printing office (Village
Record), and had an interview with the
editor, W. Blair, whom I cdnsider worthy
. of patronage, and, who publishes a very
respectable paper. I also had the pleas
ure of forming an acquaintance with G.
Middour (brother to the present Steward
of the Poor House) and his very kind fam
ily. with whom I principally lodgid dur
ing my stay in Waynesboro'. I also vis
ited Ridgeville, and talked to the people,
whence I was conveyed to Shady Grove,
and tarried over night with an esteemed
friend, Alex. Gordon, (father of the Rev.
3. Smith Gordon of Fannettsburg, in this
county), where I purpose holding a meet
ing in a few weeks, by Divine permission,
and canvassing the place regularly.
I am glad to say the grain crop looks
promising, and farmers are hopeful, not
withstanding the pressure financially.—
All admit 'that a good wheat crop would
give a stimulus to ovary department of

participate in the opening or dedicatory

a very fine one, large enough to accomo

gathering is anticipated on the occasion.
We make the following brief extract
from a communication furnished us in re
ference to the dedication :
"The examinations at the Cumbeiland
Valle Normal School will be con
due y seven County Superintendents,
by as many Principals as there are schools
then in operation, and by the Superinten

the State Board of Examiners.
The object of the Legislature in the estab
lishing State Normal Schools in '57 was to
qualify teachers by increasing their knowl
edge of the elements of science, by giTing
them culture broad and deep, by thor
oughly discipling them in the art of teach
ing, by making them. feel that tberhave
an important and responsible work to do,
and by impressing their minds with the
truth that teaching must, if teachers do
their duty, become a'profeesiem, as much
se as law, medicine and theology.

A VERITABLE GHOST.—Ghosts are be
coming very. plentiful now-a-days. We
hear of them in every quarter ; they have
haunted gchool houses and churches, and
•
are even said to now and then loaf about
saloons. One of the veritable has lately
appeared in Noble county, Minn. In the
great storm of January 7th, a man by the
name of Weston was frozen to death ; at
least such was the snpposition, though the
body was not.discovered. The other day
a man;named Wesley, living near Hersey
Station, was amazed to see -Weston ap
proaching him from the barn, dressigas
on the day of his disappearance. Suppos
ing it was all .a mistake, Wesley spoke to
him, telling him that everybody believed
him to be dead. Upon this the figure,
stalking about in Weston's clothes, de
'eared that such was the fact, and his body
would be found in a oeitain -locality about
one mile and a half east of the station.—
The speaker then vanished - Wesley told
the story to his neighbors and they set
out for the spot indicated, when sure en
ough they found the body of the unfortu
nate man iu a large snowdrift. He had
armyilue, with a cape,
on an overcoat
and the apparition was dressed in a simi
lar way:- was evident that- the coat
had not been taken off or the body moved,
and the question that excites the scientific
mind now is : Where' did that spiiritlei
its army overcoat? The fact of the ap-,
pearance of the ghost dressed in this man
ner, is sufficiently attested to :satisfy the
St. Paul .Frew of its reality, and it de
clares that Mr. Wesley is a gentleman of
the strictest veracity. Can the Press ex

A!OTHER OCEAN HORROR!
OVER 500 LIVES LOST I
Hem - Fax, April I.—The steamship At- b
la • o the 'Mite Star Line, from Liver
pool, March 20, for New York, running
short of coal, made for Halifax. When a
bout twenty miles from port off Cape
Prospect at 2/:31) this Morning, ran ashore
ou Meagher's Head. She had on board
over 1,000 men woman and children.—
Only 250 succeeded in landing. The re
mainder, including woman and children,
were lost. The captain and third officer
were saved ; the first officer was drown
ed.
The following are the particulars touch
ing the ship and disaster as related by
Mr. Brady, the thircfofficer :
The Atlantic, Mr. Brady said, left
Liverpool on Thursday, March 20, for
New York ; touched at Queenstown the
next day to receive the mail and passen
gers, after which she started on her voy
age across the ocean. She had a full car
go of general merchandise and a very
large number of passengers. Mr. Brady
could not give the precise number, but
thought there were over 800 in the steer
age and about 6.fty in the cabin. These,
with her crew would make the total num
ber not less than 1,000 souls. She was
commanded by Capt. James Agnew Wil
liams. Rotigh weather was experienced;
but nothing worthy of note occurred until
noon on Monday, the 31st, when the coal
being short, Capt. Williams resolved to
put into Halifax for a supply. The cap
tain and Mr. Brady had the night watch
up to midnight, when they were relieved
by the chief and fourth officers. At that
time they judged thatSambro Light then
bore N. IN. W. 39 miles,
The sea was rough anti the night was
dark. The chiefand fourth officer hay
ing taken charge, Mr. Brady went below
and turned into his birth. The ctptain
at the same time went to his room to lie
down. What occurred between mid-night
and 2 o'clock—the time of the disaster—
Mr. Brady cannot tell, as he wassleeping.
He was awakened and thrown nut of his
bunk by the shock when
TSE STEAMER STRUCK,
She struck heavily three or four times.
Mr. Brady ran up to the deck and found
it full of passengers. He found ,an axe
and with it began to clear away the star
board life boat. He observed that the
captain and the other officers were engag
ed in clearing the other boats, Mr. Bra
dy succeeded in getting his life boat out.
This was the only boat launched and it
had no sooner touched the water than a
crowd made a rush to get. into it. Brady
had to use some force to prevent them
from crowding in. He put" two women
and about a dozen men into it, and also
got in himself. Just then the steamer fell
and sank. The boat with its living freight
was carried down.with the steamer, and
all in it were drowned except Brady.
The hull of the steamer became almost
totally submerged, and only the bow and
the masts remained above water; The
greater part of the passengeri were in
their rooms below at the time, and imme
diately drowned. Indeed, so soon after
Striking did the steamer sink, that many
of the passengers were no doubt sleeping
peacefully in blissful ignorance of all
that was going on around them, and pass
ed into eternity without a struggle. Of
those on deck numbering several hun
dreds, many where washed overboard
when the ship fell over and then
CRIES FOR HELP
as they struggled in vain for life, were
• most heartrending. Many, however had
taken retuge in the rigging and on the
bow and where still living, but with the
prospect of almost certain death before
them, for they knew - not where they were,
and were in a momentary expectation of
ship sinking further and erigulphing them
all. Even as they were clinging in des
peration to the rigging with the sea wash
ing over them continually, their situation
was indeed most trying, and every few
minutes some of them benumed by the
cold and exhausted from their struggles
loosed their hold and perished.
The Atlantic was 3,107 tons burthen,
and was built two'years ago in Belfast,
TtPland.--This--was--her-49th—tripr—She
had fifty cabin passengers. She was val
ued at $500,000.
New' York, April 3.—The latest Hali
fax dispatches received show that the loss
of life by the wreck of the steamer Atlan
tic is not as great as was supposed. • The
loss altogether is now estimated at 546.

CASH BUSINESS !—Having been doing a
partial credit business and now finding that
to continue the same I cannot keep my
stock of goods such as I desire for my cash
customers, and discovering that the credit
system is only calculated to make cash buy
ers pay incres sed profits to make up for the
loss arising from long standing and bad ac
counts, I will after the Ist of April sell no
goods on time, and will accept nothing but
cash or marketable trade as a fair exchange
for goods. Tliis I will carry out to the letter.
