    Robbebs Killed on a 'Railroad. —The
Harrisburg (Pa.,) Telegraph of tbe 28lh ult.
slates that who were walking on the
track of the Harrisburg arid Lancaster Rail
road, on that day, were struck by a locomo
tive and killed. A quantity, of counterfeit
bills on. Rhode Island Banks, were found upon
hem, and several letters, which showed that
they belonged to an association of robbers.
Cards with names upon them of persons liv
ing at different places, among others that of
A. W. Creamer, CJorning, Sieuben Co., were
among their papers. One was named Geo.
W. Viekroy, the other was not recognized.-
The night previous to this.accident" two rob
beries had been perpetrated at Middletown,
Pa., and in one instance a.lumberman named
Finney was relieved of S3OOO, The envelop
which contained-the money was found on the
men that were killed,-bill hone of the money.
A large amount of bank notes being found
in their pockets, they were supposed to .be
men of properly, and the people of Highspire
went to considerable expense in getting hand--
some coffins, &c., for the deceased, but the
bank bills found on their persons proved to
be counterfeit; So, the people who supposed
they had Been worshipping Mammon, were
deservedly sold by the soulless carcasses of
two thieves.
Never marry a man until you have seen
him cat. Let the candidate (or your hand
pass through the ordeal of eating soft boiled
eggs. If he can do itand leave the table-spread,
the napkin, and his shirt unspotted—take him.
Try him next with a spare rib. If he accom
plishes this feat without pulling out one of his
own eyes, or pitching the bone into your lap,
name the wedding day at once; he will do to
tie to.

can do so. I \
The Farms consist of the best limestone (he most
Miperinr quality for farming, in a rapidly place,
into which an extensive emigration k now /pouting. The
property is located in Elk County, lrpthe midst
of a thriving population of tunic 10,000. * That cttmuic is per
fectly healthy, and the terrible pligueofthe west fexer io
unknown. It also ha&an nbnnd.itKo of the be«t quality of
Coal and Iron. The price to buy it out i-* from <.l to $2O per

advance, a discount of 5 per cent, will be allowed, and for
ox er $lOO a discount of 10 per cent.
In considering the advantages of emigrating to this locality
the following are presented;
First —The coil is a rich limestone, capable of raising the
heax lest fropa. owing tn which this tettk-ment has attained
its present gie.it pro-penty.
, ‘Second —it is the centre of the great North ’West Coal Ba

ness place* in the state. It will supply the great Lake mar-,
ket, (according to population and travel the greatest in the
Union.) It lias fixe workable veins of the best Bituminous
CuaU amounting in the agiepate to over 22 feet, which makes
22,000 tons of cual under each acre. This xxill make the laud
of inestimable X'alnc.
The eminent state geologist Dr. Chas. T. Jackson of Boston,
has made u geologucal surrey of the land, and analybcd the
coal, the jron ore and the limestone. This repoit together

Thinl —Three railroads arc laid out through this property.
The Sunbury and Erie Kailroad gives u« a market for our coal
to the lakes—it nm« from Eric to Philadelphia. A large part
f *r this road has been finished, and is now m running order.
A heavy force is now working from Erie towards our hind in
the western direction, the means for the completion of which
ha? been raised—it will sotm be finished. The Alleghany
Valley Railroad connects us with Now York, Bostonand Tuia
b«rg. The Venango Road connects ns with the West.
There arc already good Turnpike Uoada running through
lids property, various other roads June been opened to accom
modate the emigration and settlement which has already ta
ken place.
There is noopportunity equal to it now offered to the man
who wants to pro\i«ie himself a home m an easy way, and

Report of the Committee appointed to superintend
the. Burning of the Lon Safes, at Reading, Feb.
27, 1857. J
“The undersigned, members of the committee, do
respectfully report, that we saw the two Safes origi
nally agreed upon by Farrels &. Herring and Evans
&. Watson, placed side by side in a furnace, viz:
The Safe in use by the Paymaster of the Philadcl
phia and Reading Railroad Company, in his office
nt Reading, manufactured by Parrels & Herring,
and the safe in use by 11. A. Lanlz, in his store,
manufactured by Evans & Watson,and pulin books
and papers precisely alike.
The fire was started at 8J o’clock, A. M., and
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords
dry oak and half chestnut lop wood were entirely
consumed, the whole under the superintendence of
the subscribers, members of the Committee. The
Safes were then cooled off with water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and sent to 11. A. Lanfz’s
store for public examination, after they were first
examined and marked by the .Committee. The
books and papers taken from the Safe manufactured
by Evans &. Watson were hut slightly affected by
the intense heat, while those taken from the Safe
manufactured by Parrels & Herring, were in our
judgment, damaged fully fifteen per cent more than
those taken from Evans & Watson’s Safe.
We believe the above to have been a fair and im
partial trial of the respective qualities of both Safes.
