THE AGITATOR.
WELLSBORO’ PENNA.
Thursday Morning) Joly 1859.
exceedingly warm. Crops are growing finely*
The Supervisors of onr Boro are doing a very
handsome job on Main street, for which they ought to
hare and no doubt will get the thanks of the whole
community. The old planks are being taken up, and
the street is being leveled and graded.
• About half-past nine o'clock Tuesday mor
ning, an alarm of fire was given which startled some
of our citizens. Fire was discovered in the roof of the
residence of Mr. H. P. Erwin, hut was soon extin
guished with hut little damage.
After an absence ,of nearly three weeks we find
ourselves again at onr post, with renewed health.—
Owing to our absence and the absence of onr workmen,
who .attended the celebration at Tioga, we are only able
to present onr readers with a half sheet this week,
which, we presume, under the circumstances, will he
.•satisfactory to our readers.
I The Prize Essay on the “Duties and Respon
sibilities of the Common School Teaqher,” will he pub
lished in the first number of the sixth volume of the
Agitator. Quite a number of essays have been seat
In, and the committee of adjudication are now engaged
in reading them. Those whose subscriptions expire
at the end of the volume had better renew them at
once.
Sebenaded,— We were sitting the other evening in
•our sanctum, reading the “Autobiography of Alton
Locke”—and a sad story of heart trials it is—-when
our attention was attracted by the sound of music.—
We listened, and the sad, sweet strains of "Annie
Laurie” came floating to our delighted senses. We
threw back the shutters, stuck our head out, and saw
Hank Wood sitting on a pile of shingles beneath oar
•window. Another friend who was with him threw
something up at us—a boquet, perhaps—which we
did foot get The moon shone brightly, the air was
-cakn and still, other songs followed, and we were “as
happy as a clam/' Our young friends bare our thanks.
On the 3d of July between the hours of four
•and six o’clock in the afternoon, a fearful tornado of
wind and rain passed over the country doing much in
jury, but so far as we have yet heard, without loss of
human life. A friend at Liberty in this county, writes
us as follows:
“The black clouds began to rise in the south-west,
and passed over our valley In a north-westerly direc
tion. The clouds seemed to bo charged with electric
ity to tbeir utmost capacity, and such a display of
lightning and peals of thunder was seldom ever wit
nessed in our valley. The rain came down in such
torrents that it really appeared that tho swollen clouds
were emptying their entire masses of water at once,
and soch a terrific gsic of wind accompanied the
storm as is beyond onr power to describe. This storm
extended over quite an extensive area of country, and
in its course it leveled nearly every tree to tho ground
and uncovered nearly every roof. It has ruined eveiy
sugar-bush in our entire valley, and thel amount of
fences thrown down and destroyed is beyond all cal
culation. The orchards in our valley were also very
much injured, most every farmer having from one to
twenty-five fruit trees blown down. There were also
n great many cattle and sheep injured, and some that
were in the woods, killed. This tornado from the time
of its commencement lasted nearly half an hour, and
in that time, at a low estimate, damage was done to
tho amount of from two to three thousand dollars.”
TTo have not heard as yet from other parts of the
county, but we presume that more or less damage was
done by it everywhere. Its effects were felt severely
in Potter, M’Kean and Warren counties on the west of
us, and as far as Ithica on the North.
Adjoining- Comities.
Bradford. —The Reporter learns that on Saturday
last, Mr. Isaac Fuller, of Springfield, committed sui
cide by banging himself. He was found about noon
in his bard, dead, his feet upon the floor, showing that
the act was persevered in, until accomplished. Mr.
J*. was a highly respected citizen, and had reached his
Ssth year.
Wo clip from the Argus the following account of the
late fire in Towanda:
Our citizens were roused from their slumbers
between two and three o’clock on Saturday morning
last by the unwelcome cry of fire!—anj'alarm which
hae not fallen upon our ears for many'rnonths before.-
Tbo fire was soon discovered to be in the old Eagle
Foundry, in the southern part of the borough. Before
the engines could be got on the spot, the flames had
made such progress that all efforts to save the Foundry
buildings were in vain. The stabling attached to the
Rail Road House, which was directly in the rear of
the Foundry was also destroyed; and it was with con
siderable difficulty that the Rail Road House, and
other adjoining buildings were saved. Indeed, had it
not been for the stillness of the night and the heavy
shower of rain which fell just previous to the discov
ery of the fire, it must inevitably have extended much
farther. As it was, however, the firemen were ena
bled to stay its progress.
Mr. 0. D. Bartlett, proprietor of the Foundry, esti
mates his loss at $10,000; insured for §2,500, in the
Lycoming Mutual Insurance Company. Col. Means,
estimates bis loss, in the destruction of the barn at
§5OO. So insurance. We have not been informed of
the extent of Mr. Carrier’s loss.
Potter.—We regret to announce the demise of the
Coudcrsporf Northern Democrat , known to the press of
this part of the country as the Free Nigger Bumper. ,
It was a professed Buchanan sheet, but was doing ex
cellent service to the Republican cause in that county,
by illustrating the depths of meanness to which a self
styled Democratic paper could descend. We cannot
say that the deceased had the respect of any of its co
temporaries of any shade of politics. We never saw
a lino copied from its columns except as an object of
ridicule or amusement, Nobody regrets its demise
but those who were fools enough to pay for it in ad
vance.
The ex-editor is now bringing his inventive genius
to bear upon a machine to sqdecaeliponey out of delin
quent subscribers. When he j gets it patented we will
give it as good a puff as we dia the ‘‘Bumper.”
Broke Out. —Three Prisoner* Escaped from
Jail. —James Gross, (convicted and sentenced at last
Court to $5O fine and one year’s imprisonment in the
county jail, for assault and battery, upon an old Ger
man named Keeler, in Sweden township,) and Samuel
and Wallace Austin, (the suspected horse-thieves no
ticed elsewhere.) escaped from our jail on Tuesday
night. It is supposed they were assisted by friends on
the outside, as they partly sawed off one of the iron
•window bars and then with a large hemlock stick
broke it off, making an aperture large enough for any
ordinary sized man to get through. The bar was of
Sweed iron, and about g of an inch thick; it was
sawed nearly half off. The sheriff has issued hand
bills offering a reward for their apprehension. He
sent two or three men out Wednesday morning to look
after them.
P. S.—The Austins were retaken two miles north
of EUisburg, on Wednesday afternoon. The cider
■brother evinced some disposition to fight at first, but
was soon calmed down. They were re-committed to
our jail late Wednesday night— Journal. <
Z*ycomiH£t—At the late session of the United
States Court In Williamsport the following cases were
disposed of:
——United States v*. Charles Miller. Indictment
for manufacturing counterfeit coin. Verdict, guilty,
and sentenced to pay a fine of $2,000 and to be confined
at bard labor in the penitentiary at Allegheny City
for the term of seven years.
"It will be remembered, says the National Vedette,
that Miller was tried some time ago at the County
Court and sent to the Penitentiary, and was pardoned
out by Hia Excellency/ Gov. Packer, for the purpose
of giving testimony against certain "prominent busi
ness men” in Williamsport. When tho time arrived
for bim to give said testimony be was not to be found,
and the prosecutions were abandoned, there not being
any testimony. Miller has since been tracked np, ar
rested and tried on the same charges for which he had
been convicted and pardoned I, before, and receives a
far more severe sentence I If any of onr readers are
disposed to inquire «% has he been thus dealt with
we can_only answer that we are not prepared just now
to enlighten them on that point."
United States vs. Kate King alias Miller. Indict
ment tor manufacturing counterfeit coin. Verdict, not
guilty. Prteuutt discharged.
United States vs. Charles Mcßride. Indictment
for forging coin. Verdict, not guilty. Prisoner dis
charged.
United States vs. Silas E. Lynn. Indictment for
stealing a letter, (said to have been a “love-letter,”)
from the U. S. mail. Verdict, guilty. Sentenced to
bo confined in the Penitentiary at Allegheny City for
three calendar months.
A friend wishes to know why nobody is ever sum
moned as Jurors in the above Court, but leading Loco
Focos? We cannot tell, unless it is because Jurors are
drawn contrary to law. Our friend is mistaken how
ever, about leading Democrats being ahcaye chosen, as
we know that Cotter, the celebrated inventor, was a
juror from Potter county, and he is the very smallest
kind of infinitesimal locofoco potatoes.
Persons wishing to change their names, have
hitherto 1 had to apply to the legislature; hat according
to the provisions of an act of the last legislature of
this State, persons having a desire to change their
names can do so by applying to the Court of Common
Pleas, —Lycoming Gazette.
'‘Old Hunx" says that a good many of his friends
of the other sex would be glad to change their names,
if an application to Court would accomplish the ob
ject.
——We learn that a brutal, cowardly assault was
committed on Daniel Bower, of the Frees, at Williams
port, on Saturday, by a person named John Platt. It
seems that the excuse given for the outrage was a short
article in the Press which seemed to reflect not in the
most flattering terms on Mr. P’s official conduct. We,
perhaps, do not understand the subject in all its hear
ings, but we think that if the intimations in the arti
cle are correct the least Mr. p. can say about them the
better; and if they are false they must have injured
the writer, and no one else. At all events there is
nothing to justify Mr. P. in his brutal conduct. The
time has not quite arrived in Pennsylvania, when Lo
cofoco officials can take the law into their own hands
and intimidate the press from criticising their official
conduct, and they had belter not make the attempt.—
Jersey Shore Vedette.
McKean.— Cot Sam Crane, formerly editor of the
Bradford (McKean Co.) Miner, better known as the
“Indiana Pikeshote” has turned up in Herkimer conn
-1 ty, N. Y., as a street preacher. We quote from the
; Herkimer Democrat:
“Brother” Crano, whose place of residence is
about as indefinite as his theological ideas, held forth
on Tuesday morning near the Railroad, in his peculiar
stylo of eloquence. We suspect there are poorer
preachers than “Brother” Crane, who get much better
pay, and more credit for sanity than is his fortune.
Crane was a man of considerable ability, who bro’t
himself and his family to ruin by intemperance and
profligacy, I
The McKean Democrat gives the following ac
count of a distressing accident: j
“On Saturday lost a melancholy Occident occurred
near Bunker llill, resulting in the death of George
Bennett, a lad about eight years of age, son of D. R.
Bennett of this place. He had started from this place
in the morning with John Lehn, who was going for a
load of hay in the vicinity of Bunker Hill, and when
near that place, Mr. Debn informs us that be got off
the wagon for the purpose of speaking with Mr. E. B.
Eldred, who was in a sulky immediately behind, when
the horses from some cause became frightened and ran.
Mr. Eldred and Doha instantly started in pursuit, but
were unable to overtake them, until about a quarter of
a mile from where the horses started the little fellow
was thrown from tho wagon, and when picked up by
Mr. Eldred he was insensible, his head and face were
badly bruised and cut up and one arm was broken.—
Ho was taken to the house of Mr. Debn, near by, and
medical aid was sent for. Dr* Wisner hurried to the
scene of the accident and dressed his wound, when be
was brought home in a state of unconsciousness in
which condition ho lingered until Sunday morning
when he expired.
A correspondent at Little Genesee, under date
of July 2 , furnishes us with the following particulars
of a most brutal murder perpetrated near Ceres, M’-
Kean Co,, Pa., on Friday evening lost:
“Last evening, between sunset and dark, James
Bunn proceeded to a groggery at Ceres, and procuring
a bottle of liquor, started for home. On his way he
fell in with James Stoker, who owed Diinn fora bunch
of shingles. Dnnn bad said if Stoker did not pay for
the shingles, he would “pound it out of him.” A short
time after Dunn left Ceres, Stoker was found most
brutally murdered. The two were seen together only
a few moments before the murder was committed, and
soon after Dunn was seen alone. Stoker’s head was
badly broken with a binder used for binding lumber,
which was found near the body, quite bloody. Dunn's
bottle was also discovered near the murdered man.—
Stoker bad a wife, and was fifty years old or upwards.
Dunn is an Irishman, about thirty years of age—not
married. Ho is on his way to Smethport jail to await
trial. —Dree Press.
Clinton.—The Watchman contains the following
account of the formal opening of the Sunbury & Erie
Rail Road to Lock Haven:
“At 7 o’clock on last Friday the first train of cars
to this place over the Sunbury and Erie Railroad ar
rived from Philadelphia, bringing the Philadelphia
mail and that morning’s paper.
Their approach was announced by the ringing of
bells, firing of canons, and the blowing of the steam
whistles of the different saw mills in this vicinity.—
Between three and four thousand citizens, headed by
the Brass Band, the Steuben Rifles and Lock Haven
Artillery met the the depot upon their
arrival. A procession of omnibussea and carriages
were formed which passed through the principal streets,
stopping at the Fallon House and White’s Hotel. At
dark nearly every building, wtth the exception of the
Democrat office, on the principal streets-were illumi
nated. and at half past 9 o’clock the military paraded,
and after firing salutes, a procession of citizens was
formed, headed by the military and Brass Baud, and
after marching through town, a very eloquent address
was delivered by L. A- Mackey Esq., which was res
ponded to by Ex. Gov. John W. Geary.
The town never looked so beautiful before, and the
streets were thronged until a late hour at night. Ev
erything passed off with the greatest enthusiasm, and
without any serious accident.”
There was no regular celebration of tbo Fourth at
Lock Haven, but a foot race “came off" for a purse of
$5, to the great amusement of about one thousand per-
sons.

OXYGENATED BITTERS,
Tor the cure of Dyspepsia on Indigestion, Liver Complaint,
Asthma. Costivenuss, Loss of Fever and Ague,
Heart Burn, Water Brush, Acidity, Sea Sickness, Scurvy,
Nausea, Headache, .Ennui, and General pebility, or any dis
ease having its origin in imperfect digestion.
These Bmxns. os all classes of our TeUow citizens, includ
ing Members of Congress, Lawyers, Physicians, Clergymen,
Planters, Fanners 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 some
phase or other of Dyspepsia afflict our riice.
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 injany clime,* they are
a ‘'combination and a term indeed” of Medicine which knows
no rival in exterminating disease and restoring the system
to its pristine vigor and health. No Matter of how long
standing, or however induced or chronic in its character the
disease may be—no matter that it has to filed the skill of the
physician, and resisted the efforts of Ahjdichie, a single tria
of these Bitters will satisfy the sufferer that his disease ail
amenable to the proper remedy.
In testimony of the many cures effec:ed by this Remedy
reference Is had to the written coctifkutos from distinguished
individuals known all over the land.
