three o'clock in the afternoon, and about six, some
children returning from school found her in her house
dead. No one was with her except an idiot daughter,
who is incapable of giving any account of the matter.
An inquest was held the same evening by IS. P. Yough
man, Esq,, and a verdict rendered by the jury of death
from natural causes. The deceased was formerly the
wife of a Mr. Einley who died some years ago. A
short time ago she was married to Jos. Kibbie, but
matters not suiting her taste she left him and had
been living alone with her unfortunate daughter at
her old residence.
The Freeze. —Saturday last was decidedly cold
and disagreeable for the fourth day of Summer, and
was followed by a “right smart** frost on Sunday and
Monday mornings. It nipped the beans in our gar
dens but was not heavy enough to do any other dam
age, On Friday daring the storm, we learn'it both
bailed and snowed on the mountains north of us.
Muncy Luminary .
Clinton. —The Watchman thus discoorseth on the
action taken by the City Fathers of Lock Haven on
“dorgs.” Wt commend it to the consideration of our
Town Council: -
“Rejoice and be glad all ye citizens of Lock Haven,
for your worthy Fathers, the Town Council, have at
last aroused from their death like slumbers, and made
one effort for the benefit of their constituents, by pass
sng a law, which was brought to their notice by this
paper, compelling the owners of all dogs, whiffets,
curs or terriers, to either tie or muzzle the same, to
prevent them from biting persons who may be unfor
tunate enough to come in contact with the aforesaid
canine animals. In failure to do so, High Constable
Fowler is duly authorized ,to take them—the dogs in
charge, and hang, drown,'shoot, flay, burn, roost, scalp,
draw and quarter the same at his pleasure, providing
he does not sell any of their'carcases, legs, ears, tails,
beads or any part thereof,, to any butcher, or grocery
keepers, or bologna sausage manufactories within the
precincts of the borough of Lock Haven.
In accordance with the above order of the Borough
Fathers, Constable Fowler bas entered upon his ca
nine duties, and we understand that he will pay a pre
mium of 25 cents for every scalp* of a dog taken in
the borough."
The Watchman says that in Millford in this State
recently, one Dr. Charles Bonneville, a Frenchman,
after abiding in jail a few days on charge of being the
father of a forthcoming offspring of a colored girl,
''compromised** the matter by forming a matrimonial}
'‘union** with her. As he is a good Democrat, the!*
Shamocrat papers make no fuss about it.
The Freeze. —On Sunday morning it was discover
ed that there had been a prety severe frost which had
done considerable damage to the gardens. It was
found necessary to have fi-o in the churches in order
to make them comfortable. Since that time it has
moderated some, and at the present writing the weath
er is pleasant. JFe see by our exchanges that hail
storms have occurred in many parts of the country.—
Watchman*
McKean. —On Monday wight last the Dwelling
Hotiqo of John Dexter situated about 2 miles below
Port Allegany toward Larabee’s, was burned to the
ground. That it was | the work of an incendiary the
people in that vicinity generally believe. There was
do fire in the house after 4 o’clock in the afternoon.—
About miduight Mr. Dexter was aroused by tho crack
ling noise of wood burning, and upon getting up and
opening the back door be discovered his wood house in
flames. There was no stove in that part of the house,
neilber was there any substance from which a fire
would be very apt to start unless created by human
agency. Most of the property in the Hoxisq was de
stroyed with it.
P. S.—Since the above was in type we learn that a
man by the name of Robbins has been arrested on
suspicion and lodged in jail.— Citizen,
Steuben, N. Y.— We clip tho following items from
the Corning Journal: ,
On Saturday afternoon, about 6 o’clock, as tho
Switch Engine was moving cars near the coal bed in
lower part of this village, it ran over and killed a
young child, aged about one and a half years. The
child was tho son of a Mr. 3fcDonnld. The Engineer
was backing up with several box cars and Hid not sec
the child until it was too late. The child got upon
the track and sat down upon it as the cars were coming
towards it Its mother saw its 1 peril and ran to rescue
the lirtlc one sitting there unconscious of danger. She
caught it and partially drew it from the track, but its
clothing was caught by the cow-catcher and it was
thrown under tho wheel, which parsed over its body,
nearly severing it at the waist. An Irish woman,
named Mrs* FlynDj attempted to drown herself with
her babe in her arms at Binghamton last Saturday.
Tin: Freeze. —On Sunday morning there was a
heavy frost. Vines, Beans and Tomatoes were gene
rally killed, as few persons anticipated the danger.—
Corn was seriously damaged and some kinds of fruit
greatly injured. The “cold region” embraced West
ern New York and Ohio, and probably the more west
ern States. In Ohio it is reported that the wheat as
well as corn was vastly injured by the frost.
Susquehanna.—The Freeze— On Saturday night
and Sunday night last there was sufficient frost to kill
the tenderer vegetables, in many places in this county.
Wo believe that fruit generally is uninjured.—liepub

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT
In nutting up
FINE CUT CHEWING TOBACCO,
has been adopted by Messrs. E. GOODWIN A BRO.,
of New York City.
Tobacco, of the t best quality, is selected, neatly
wrapped in Tin Foil, and Patent Pressed.
The great advantages of this over other brands con
sist in the size of the packages, rendering it more con
venient to carry in the pocket, and by being Pressed
Solid it keeps Moist and Fresh, and improves in
quality as it is used; while in other brands, as soon
as the package is opened the quality rapidly deterio
rates —the tabacco growing dry-—and littering the
pocket, to the great annoyance of the consumer. The
Dressing which the Fine Cut Tobacco Undergoes in
the process of manufacture, frees it from all grit or
impurities so objectionable in the use of Plug Tobacco*
Cbewers will do well to give the Patent Pressed a trial
and judge for themselves.
For sale by H. Westcott & Co., who receive it direct

OXYGENATED BITTERS.
For the cure of Dyspepsia or Intugestiok, Liver Complaint,
Asthma, Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Fever and Ague,
Heart Burn, Water Brash, Acidity, Sea Sickness, Scurvy,
Nausea, Headache, Ennui, and General Debility, or any dis
ease having its origin in imperfect digestion.
These Bitters, as all classes of our fellow citizens, includ
ing Members of Congress, Clergymen,
Planters, Farmers and others testify, are the only safe, cer
tain and sovereign specific for the immediate relief and per
manent cure of the many cruel complaints which in soma
phase or other of Dyspepsia afflict our race.
These Bitters were discovered by Dr. George B. Green,
and in their formula differ entirely from that of any other
preparation of medicine. Containing no alcohol—no miner
al—no poison—no noxious drug,—in their nature tonic, not
stimulating,—retaining their virtues in any clime; they are
a “combination and a form indeed” of Medicine which knows
no rival In exterminating disease and restoring the system
to Its pristine vigor and health. Ko matter of how long
standing, or however induced or chronic in its character the
disease may bo—no matter that it has baffled the a kill of the
physicianL.ft.nd resisted the efforts of i/edicine, a single triu
of these Bitters will satisfy the sufferer that bis disease sil
amenable to the proper remedy.
In testimony of the many cures effected by this Bemedy
reference is had to the written certificates from distinguished
individuals known all over the land.
From among the many letters we are constantly receiving
we take the following:-
‘■Gentlemen : — I have nsed tho Oxygenated Bitters In my
practice with decided success in Debility and General pros
tration, and confidently recommend it in cases of General
Debility or Derangement of the Digestive Organs.

Strickland, Editor o[ N. Y. CkriKian Advocate.

“ I had a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewing done
with one of Grover 4 Baker's Machines, and a single
seam of that has outstood all the double seams sewed
by sailors with a needle and twine.”
‘'lf Homer could be called up from his murky

asrft more benignant miracle of art than was ever
Vulcan's smity. He would denounce midnight shirt
making as * the direful spring of woes unnumbered.”
