the realm of wealth is the key of all.
Therefore it behooves alf of 'our young
men desirous of amassing large fortunes
to be systematic. There is not money
enough on earth, and it is fair to assume
never will be, to permit all men to be
come the very fortunate possessors of
millions. Yet, a fixed mettod of doing
things, no matter how trivial—an inflex
ible and well contrived system—is a high
and broad stepping stone to success Its
every calling. Illerchane; banker, man
uficturer, author ; lawyer, all base need
of practicing a fixed and unalterable
system. It may not- al wayS bring mil
lions; invariably, however, it will add
to the success of every business and the
effiefency of the practicers of all the pro
fessions. Your unsystematic man is by
the practical, every-day world called
shiftless; his mortgages are foreclosed,his
notes protested, and his' children do not
rise up and call him blessed.
A great mistake, however, is often
made, in holding out the ides that get

The truth is it would ript do for all to be
rich. Were this the case, that depend.
ence on one another, so indispensable to
progress and the improvement of our
globe, would arm, and very little could
be done towards outworking great, desir
able ends; neither could there be any
contrast between riches and poverty, nor
opportunities to demonstrate the beauties
of charity and benevolence. Let those,
therefore, who cannot amass fortunes
strive to be honest and comfortable as
possible.

For the past month the Treasury of the

Phelps, amounting to more than a quar

him to such an extent as to unsettle his
mind awl render him unfit for duty.—
But there was no provision in the law
for meeting any such emergency, and the
Governor could find no authority for any
action in the hiaiter. Chechs rind drafts
for money .necessary to carry on the busi
ness of the Government were worthless
without the signature of the Treasurer,
and he was incapable of attending to

After all the arrests that have
been made of persons supposed to belong
to the Bender family, who committed so
many murders in Kansas, all of that

Bender, and who, it was reported, had
been satisfactorily identified, proves to
he a demented old man or the name of

county, Kansas, publishes a description
of the senior Bender, in which the crimi
nal is described as a man having an in
telligent coUtitenance and resembling in

for .members of the Bender family. He
adds that all of the Benders,notwithstan

itirrranklin J. Moses, governor of
South Carolina, who was recently indict
ed for grand larceny by one of the Coun
ty Courts of the State, did not . put in an
appearance when his case was called for
trial on Saturday. The solicitor of the
State asked for a Bench warrant, but this
the Court refused. The counsel for the
Governor moved for a dismissal of the
proceedings on the ground that the Gov
ernor of a State cannot be indicted or tri
ed for any crime unless first impeached.
To the non-professional mind this seems
like a very absurd proposition, but the
Judge to whom it was tiddtessed thought
it of sufficient importance to justify him
in postponing the ease till October in or
der to give him time to make up his judg
ment. By that time Governor Moses'
term will have expired.

DECEASED.-Mr. George Bell, a well
known and highly esteemed citizen of
Washington county, Md., father Of Jason
Bell of this place, expired at his residence
near Leitersburg, on Wednesday of last
week, in about the 61st year of his age.—
His disease was of the bowels or stomach
and his illness a protracted and more than
ordinal ilv severe one.
SCALDVIL—On Wednesday of last week
a child of Mr, Henry HoweiOr of this
place, in the absence of its mother, fell
into a tub of hot water, so seriously scald:
ing itself as to leave faint hopes of its re
covery. Its condition at last accounts was
not much improved. The little sufferer
is only about two years old. ' Another war
ning to careless mothers.
10,. The great curse that hangs over
every small community is scandal, and
a disposition among some few, to pick up
merest trifles of gossip,and magnify them
into hideous deformities. Some people
have the peculiar faculty of making
themselves intolerable by excessive
dulgenee in this business, and sometimes
so well succeed in injuring the reputation
of others, that even they themselves must
recoil with horror at the reflecti.m. Be
sure that you are not and of them. '
SNAKM—These reptiles have thus
early made their appearance according
to some of out' exchanges. Except D.
W. Mickley, of Adams county, who re
ports the capture of several huge black
snakes on his farm, nothing very marvel
ous in this line has yet been brought to
our notice. As the season advances the
customary "narratives" will no doubt
make their appearance.
FESTIVAL.—The ladies of Trinity Re
formed church of Waynesboro' will hold
a Strawberry and Ice Cream Festival, in
Beaver's Hall, formerly occupied as the
New York Store,commencing next Thurs
day evening, June 11th, and continuing
several evenings. Refreshments of all
kinds will be served in the best style and
fruits will be furnished in abundance.—
Let there be a good turn out.
DESTRUCTIVE STORM.-A thunder gust
of more than ordinary violenee passed o
tter this part of the county on Sunday•ev
euitig last. A few miles Southwest of town
hail fell in large quantities, many of the
stones says our informant being as large
as of d:uary hen eggs. We regret to learn
that Mr. Jacob J. Miller sustained a loss
approximating $lOOO. About thirty a
cres of .wheat are said to have been de
stroyed tot hihr, twelve or fourteen of his
finest apple tress were blown down, fenc
ing prostrated ; etc. The crops of David R.
Miller ; Lewis Lecron, Simon Lecron, Geo.
Sheller (tenant on the Jacobs' farm) were
also Very seriously damaged. There are
doubtless other farmers in that section who
were equally Unfortunate. Forrest trees
were -also uprooted, avindow lights broken,
etc. A stable at Shady Grove was cap
sized during the same storm.
A second storm passed over our town
about 9 o'clock, the same evening,drench
ing the earth r itir water, but inflicting no
damage.

- SEAEONABLE WEATIIER.—The late re
freshing rains were just in the niche of
time to bring forward vegetatitm of all
kinds. The grass fields particularly, have
been much benetitted, and the indications
favor a bountiful supply of hay the com
ing season. They have also had the ef
fect to revive the growing corn which was
very backward and much of it not more
than through the ground,owing to the pre
vious unfavorable weather.'
Whilst some of the wheat fields present
a• most promising appearance, others look
the reverse. The latter are - generally con
„fined to the early sowing, and have of
course been damaged by the fly. For sev
eral years the quite early sowing has prov
ed a failure owing to the same cause.—
There was not,: however, as much early,
seeding last fall as the previous season,
and consequently a larger yield is promis
ed the coming harvest than that of last
year.
PAVING.—There seems to be a spirit of
• rovementrin-this-pa-rt-of-our--tow
least, this Spring. A short time since
Dr. Hering relaid :his pavement, as did
also D. B. Russell, Esq. and now a new
brick pavement is being put down in
front of our office, Odd Fellows' building.
Our friends on the other side of the Dia
mond will have to look to their laurels,
or property holders on this • side will
eclipse them in this respect. There is
perhaps no town in the county where
there are more room for improvements of
this kind than in Waynesboro'. The
material is plenty and easy of access,and
the summer season the best for the work.
If the right kind of brick and selected
they make the most desirable pavement.
Their appearance is certainly more invi
ting than the clumsy flag stones some
times used for this purpose.,

STOVE QUESTION.-Au exchange says
don't take them down at all unless it is
necessary to do an to clean them ; do nct
poke them into the storeroom or attic ; it
is trouble enough getting them up and
down the stairs, - without the loss of com
fort which a cheuuing fire gives on some
of the chilly, damp, misty days which we
often have. "How they look !" we heard,
a housewife say, when the subject was
sluiicett of. Wife, mother, don't be over
nice when your health and the health of
your family is concerned. When a per
son is compelled to live in a room where
there has been no fire for three or six
months, that person is breathing air that
certainly breeds ! disease. We have but
little more to say on this subject; but,
housekeepers,when you clean your house,
don't take down your stoves.

such protest shall be as valid as if made

A BIG Haul,.—On Wednesday last,
Mr. Frederick Foreman, of the vicinity
of Greencastle, having disposed of a lot of,
cattle, in Philadelphia, left that place in
the Pennsylvania cars, on the morning of
that day, having in a side pocket the re
sult of his sale, $4005.00. Upon arriving
at Harrisburg be discovered that his wal
let containing the above sum was missing.
The car in which he was seated,was search
ed thoroughly, but without recovering the
lost money. He telegraphed his loss to
Philadelphia but as yet no information
has been received. He has no idea how
he was relieved of the pocket book—wheth
er he lost it or whether it waKao
Ile remembers having been in a crowd at
the depot in Philadelphia, and the proba
bility is that some light fingered 'gentle
man snatched it from his vest pocket,
which is very shallow, allowing the pock
et book to protrude. Mr. Foreman has
been in the cattle droving business for
twenty years, and this is the first time he
has lost money in this way.— Opinion.
ta,. Another proof—says the Mary
land Republican—that the bad blood en
gendered by the war against slavery and
secession is fast becoming sweet and
wholesome, with not the faintest vestige
of bitterness remaining, is afforded by
Knoxville, Tenn. inviting General Burn
side to come and make a speech. On
July 4th the ex-commander of the Army
of the. Potomac will mount the rostrum
in East Tennessee, and the journals of
that region promise him the attention of
an audience, the like of which, in point
of numbers, never have assembled in
the State. That General Burnside will
speak fittingly on the occasion, and make
the most of his opportunity_to_heaLthe_
wounds of the war, is reasonably certain.
Let him be °intensely patriotic, hut not
forget that the intensity of patriotism
now is the furtherance of the good work
of conciliation, begun by the late lament
ed Sumner, and continued by all true
lovers of our common country.

The National Conference of Dunkards
a ssembled in Girard, 111., on Sunday last
a week. It is stated that 10,000 persons
were present. • An enormous tent was e
rected for their accommodation, capable
of holding 5000 persons, but it was found
to be too small, and various religious ser
vices were h eld under trees.
A dining hall was erected, capable of
seating nine hundred persons at one time.

and injured him to such an extent that
he died on the following Thursday. Young
Mooney voluntarily gave himself up and
is now in the Chambersburg jail.
tlifi'The following is the first section of

several cows brought as much as $2,000
each.
STRUCK Rl' LIGHTNING.—Mr. Carlisle
and wife, residing at a place called Allos

last Monday. The wife Martha Carlisle,
was instantly killed. The gentleman is
still unconscions,but it is thought he will

Tun, APPLE PaosPEur.—A writer ill
the Germantown Telegraph says: We
never saw the apple trees so covered with
blossoms as they are this season. Old trees
with scarcely any life in them are no ex
ception. Every tree in large orchards-are
frequently crowded with blossoms. If the
season, at least in this region, does not
give us plenty of apples, we shall wait in
vain for one that will. The•same prom
ise ofan abundance comes to us from near
ly all over the country, The same is the
case as to peaches, pears and cherries.
Itge-One Patterson, of Michigan, was
soldier during the late war, and was so
unfortunate as to get into Libby Prison,
and while there was beaten and bayonet
ed by one Major Cady, a rebel officer.—
The other day Patterson met Cady in
Monroe, Michigan, and reminding him of
the beating, told him the time had come
to square accounts, and immediately pro
ceeded to •do that very thing. He gave
Cady a terrible flogging, using no bayon
et, however, in the operation. And then
Patterson was arrested and fined $25, and
his friends paid the fine.
LIGHTNING TRAlNt—Forty-five miles
au hour and but two stops between Pitts
buig and Philadelphia! It is currently
reported that arrangements are being
perfected by which two trains on the
Pennsylvania railroad will make the
above speed. Troughs are to be erected at
proper intervals, so that the tanks will
be enabled to take water while flying
over the track at forty miles_an. hour.—
When these facilities shall have been in
troduced the three hundred and fifty-four
miles between Philadelphia, and Pitts
burg will be. gone over without stopping
at any pin - ,c - e - but Altoona - anil-Harris-.
burg. Water troughs are now being put
up at Leaman Place, below Lancaster.—
On the western division they have been
in use for several years.
ta..lt is stated that within the last two
weeks a species of black bug has appeared
in countless numbers in the peach orchards
near Denton, Caroline county, Md., and
has done serious damage in that locality.
In one hursery the grafted stocks of 93,-
000 trees were entirely killed. The insect
is even capable of destroying large trees as
it. thickly covers the leaves and prevents
vegetation. None of the ordinary means
of destroying insects seem to avail, as this
scourge is very tenacious of life, and a li
quid application that will kill the trees
does not affect them.
larThirty-five dollars and seventy cents
