aUtion to the laic burglary in Troy :
“A yoang man named Patrick Driscoll, was ar

crtiMDg into the Jewelry Store of J. 11. Grant, in

uses wc did not leana, were engaged with him in the
rssusiou of the robbery. 0. P. Ballard’s Hard-

or three suspicious persons have been seen in
this neighborhood-lately, and it is thought that a reg
ular gang of burglars have resorted to our thinly pop
ulated county to escape the vigilance of officers in oth
er sections. It will be well for the citizens of our
county to keep close watch of their property, and exer
cise a moderate aurveillance'of the actions of all sus
picions characters they may notice wandering about.
■—JbumaL
Waurek. —The Mail (Republican Paper, of Warren
county) says;
As the time is approaching for holding county Con-i
ventions and appointing delegates therein, it may be
well to fix upon a tinje and place for holding our Sena
torial Convention in this district, comprising Warren
McKean, Potter and Tioga counties. We therefore in
troduce the subject by suggesting that it be held at
Smetbport, on Wednesday, the 10th day of August
next, at 2 o'clock P. M. What say our friends of the
Tioga Abater, Potter Journal and McKean Citizen?
We eay that we object to the time and the place. To
the time because our Republican County Convention
does not meet until the 26th of August; and to the
place because the Senatorial delegates would not wish
to go over seventy miles through the woods to attend.
We suggest Wednesday August 31st as the time, and
Coudergport as the place for the meeting of the con
ference. We think this ought to be satisfactory to all
the counties*
McKean.— The Citizen has adopted our method of
giving a summary of news from the “Adjoining
counties.” We think its readers will be glad to
see this, and appreciate its enterprise and “pay up”
accordingly. Every country paper ought to adopt
this plan, and we have no doubt that many will adopt
it when tbey see its advantages.
We learn from the'Cituen-that a firm of rich capi.
tallsts from abroad, bought 700 acres of land in that
county upon the representations that coal existed in
large quantities on the track. The firm expended $20,-
000 in erecting mills and machinery for the manufac
ture of coal oil Ac, and discovered afterwards that but
very little coal existed, and left the county in disgust.
The Citizen pays his respects once more to our friend
Cotter, who, in speaking of the progress made by his
paper in disseminating the light of modern Democra
cy, said in's recent issue: “When we came here (to
Coudersport) last fall, this pl&co looked like a dark
cellar full of black cats.”
To which the Citizen replies
“We suppose that tho articles on Free Niggers and
Democracy which appeared in A 7 ortAem
Gas Gag and Patent Free Nigger Bumper) have dissi
pated a little of this Stygian night; although we must
confess that as a general thing these Free Nigger
Democratic articles have been os dark as an Ethiopi
an looking through seven lengths of stove pipe down
a dark alloy, in a dark cloudy night, after a nigger ba
by under a pile of black cats.”
There! if that is not a picture of utter darkness,
just draw one, reader, to suit yourself.
The Agitator and its editor have lately come in for
a fair share of his mental efforts ; his paper has been
filled for weeks with senseless and uncalled for person
al abuse of us, notwithstanding tbe first rate puff we
gave bis “patent bumper.” If Cotter thinks ho can
provoke us to notice him in any other way than an ob
ject of ridicule or amusement he is entirely mistaken
as to tbe character and aims of this journal. We beg
of friend Cotter, therefore, not to quit talking of “liber,
ty and “death knells” and “Irish Patriots,” and “free
niggers,” on our account —not in tho least—not at all
—not by no means—if it affords him any relief; but
we would simply suggest that, if bis subscribers have
paid for their papers, they have a right to hear a little
of something else. If he cannot get out a better pa
per than be has for two or three weeks, bo had bettor
swap bis business for the “Great Snollegoster,” ride
down into Elk county and sell his patent bumper to the
Dutch as a thrashing machine, as they won't know tbe
difference.
LvcoiriKG. —This a great old Commonwealth, and
Lycoming is one of its counties. They have some
very intelligent jurors down there as witness tho follow
ing from the Jersey Shore Vedette :
“One of the jurors in the case of Updegraff, at the
last court, was, after tbcdismissal of the jury, interro
gated by a person who wished to know something about
the case, when he remarked that he didn't understand
exactly how it was, but* it was either Clint. Lloyd, or (
Ten. Ulmer, or Abe Updegraff. dat,vas being tried, be
coulden’t telt which, but 'twaa one of dem tree!” And
this was one of the number who were in favor of con
viction, when bo absolutely did not know who was to
be convicted!
The trial refered to, lasted over a week, and was
hotly contested by five of the ablest lawyers on each
side. Lloyd was the prosecutor, in the name of the
Com’th, and was a witness: Ulmer was also a princi
pal witness j and Updegraff was Deft, The Jury did
not agree, but if all bad been such doughbeads as that
described, they might have agreed, perhaps!
No wonder the Lycoming Gazette “backed water” a
few weeks ago, when such a man as that is allowed to
sit on a jury. No doubt ho takes the Gazette and reads
it
We understand that the cabinet shop of Mr. Nicho
las Tessler, in the block house settlement, was struck
by lightning during the severe storm of Thursday af
ternoon last, and considerably damaged. The- heavy
frosts of Saturday nnd Sunday mornings have killed
all the fruit, and it is also feared that the grain has
also been damaged in this settlement —TWM»Vtw»port
Press.
Clixtox. —Ax Old Max’s Rktexoe. —Mr Buchan
an has a great deal of fight in him yet for those whom
he regards a? his enemies. Read the following from
a late letter from Washington :
“I forgot to say to you that while Gen. Bridgens, of
Lock Haven, Clinton county, of your Stsite, was in this
city protesting against the appointment of Mr. Quiggle
as consul to Antwerp, he let out a fact which bears
somewhat upon the future of Pennsylvania politics. —
After he had told Mr. Buchanau that the appointment
alluded to was a most unfortunate one, the President
responded by stating that he desired to be let alone—
that he was an old man, who would soon be out of office
and forgotten j but that he, General Bridgens, would
render him, J. 8., an essential service, by helping to
crush Gov. Packer—a point which the President earn
estly declared he and his friends had fully determined
upon—and that Bridgcns started home resolved, after
having had this programme submitted to him to take
off his coat and assistin putting down your Governor.”
As long as old Buck has the public purse in his
keeping, he can easily secure fighting men like this
Lock Haven paper General.
A lage and interesting meeting of the friends of the
Tyrone and Dock Haven Railroad was held at Belle
fonte on Wednesday last. The meeting was an inter
esting one, and propositions were suggested which
insure the speedy completion of the road.— II afcA

Chewing Tobacco.
. -AN
IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT.
In putting up
FINE CUT CHEWING TOBACCO,
has been adopted by Messrs. E. GOODWIN & BRO.,
of New York City.
Tobacco, of the 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 tabaeco 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 all tho diseases which ft professes to cure,
*-• Sir James Clarke, physician to Queen Victoria, has given
it as his opinion that
CONSUME TION CAN BE C UR ED.
The whole history of this medicine fully confirms theopin
ion of that eminent man. Thousands can testify, and have
testified, that when all other remedies had failed, this had
completely cured; that when tho sufferer had well nigh des
paired, this hud afforded immediate relief; that when the
physician had pronounced tho disease incurable, this has re
moved It entirely.
The virtues of this Balsam are alike applicable to cure a
slight colJ or a Consumed Consumption, mid its power as a
safe, certain, speedy, pleasant and effectual remedy cannot be
equalled.
