tv Mill •'"1 Chair Factory Burned.—
. iteem S*w Mill and Chair Factory, belonging to
\|r Mack, at Mack's Corners, Susquehanna coun-
V were consumed by fire on Friday night the 15b
Bjt fbe fire originated from tbe engine about 7
.'clock in the evening.
Reslnged.— Mr Watts Cooke, so long connect
ed with the machine department of the Delaware,
Lackawanna A Western Railroad Company has re
igned His determination to take this step is the
cause of geoer.il regret about Scranton.
Potatoe Market.— The potatoe market has
heen quite brisk this season. Buyers from abroad
hire been here picking up all the potatoes they
could find at from 75 to 80 cents per bushel. The
crop lb'-' season is hardly ao average one, and hence
ms activity in the market.
Sot a Break.—On Sunday morning last we
observed the water was very low in the Canal at this
place, and ' madam rumor" would have it that there
wis a break in the ditch—not the "last ditch,"
neither is it tbe 'Dutch Gap Canal"—somewhere ;
but, upon inquiry, we ascertained there was no break
only a hneering of the water to accommodate tbe
raiting of a fiat boat—not the kind uncle Abe used
to fl--afctfown the Mississippi on—which had stuck id
:hs mud a short distance above town. in consequence
of carrying too much water or iron, we bsraly know
■hi,-h It was one of the Company's boats, consign
ed to the upper waters of the " raging canawl" with
t cargo of railroad iron, cars, tc
Xo Backward Step," saith the Radical
j.ufnals, notwithstanding the people have spoken in
(bander tones against their negro-equality-amalga
miitiiiß-reconstruotion doctrine. The popular will ie
to be set at defiance by them. The people, in their
opinion, are unfit for self-government—especially
wDfO they vote against the nigger party--and heme
the necessity of disregarding the popular verdict.
Let them roll on their nigger car of juggernaut ; a
more overwhelming defeat awaits them in 1968.
Eleven bastard nigger States will never be permit
ted to rule the destinies of a free people.
Stabbing Affair,—Mr. Levi Cooklin, who re
sides a short distance from this place, on Thursday
evening last at Crane's Saloon, had a desperate
fight with Thomas Riley a stone cutter working on
the bridge abutments at the lower end of town The
disputants went into the street, and frout words came
to blows. Riley was knocked down two o. three
tunes, and finally ran yelling murder at the top of
his voice. At the close of the affray it was ascer
tained that < onklin had a teirible gash in the arm
just above the hand whi:h had been inflicted by n
very dangerous looking knife which was fuunJ at
the place of the difficulty, and identified as one
aimed an 1 carrie iby Riley. A warrant was issued
!JT Riley, but he has not yet been found.
Au Important Secret. —An exchange paper
gits off the following trnth : " Ao editor never leaver
any money at home for fear of fire, and never car
nee any with hiin for tear of robbers, nor deposits it
is any bank for fear of speculating officials. llis
money is generally in the hands of his subscribers."
The latter sentence indicates where a " pile" of
curs is at present; and our friends had better send
it to us court week, or oouie other week, lest they
get rubbed We agree to use it quick enough to he
free from " all sieh axi enss."
Boatmen.—Boatmen, as a general thing, are a
jolly set of men, judging from the specimens who
navigate the North Branch Canal, and are miking
music all the day long and soinetimee far into the
sight, upon that wind instrument—the boat horn--
tu pecular to boatmen; which, probably, is uot the '
same horn spoken of by the bard when he says— j
" 0, boatman ! wind that horn again;
For never did the listening air,
I'pon its ambient bosom bear.
So wild, so sweet, so soft a strain !"
Runaway and Accident.—On Monday even
ing last John Niver, Win. N. Raymond and Arab i
Squier while returning borne from this place to ;
Nicholson, met with a serious accident from the
running away of the team which they were driving 1
All three were thrown violently from the carriage.
Messrs. Niver and Raymond were so much injured
as to be fur some time unconscious. 'ine latter
suffered a dangerous concu.v-tun of the brain, and his
esse considered doabtful. Mr. Niver had a danger
ous wound upon the head, and o(ber_serious bruises.
Mr. tquier, we believe, was but slightly injured.
The'carriage was badly broken to pieces. The
horses became separated at the forks of the road at
Dickson's, where one of tbern took the Factoryville j
road and the other kept his course on the Nicholson
road. The horses were shortly overtaken and were
found but slightly injured.
Business on the Canal.—Probably the coal
tranpried northward on the X. B. Canal this sea
am will excoed in amount that of any similar period
in furmer years. The business has been unusually
brisk since the opening of navigation-which was
vry late this season, owing to the repairs which
necessarily had to he made upon the Horse-Rate
Item—and boatmen and business men have iuiprov
• 1 their time to the best possible advantage. But
hosting must soon come to a stop judging Irora the
lateness of the season and the icicles hanging from
the aqueduct over Tuckhannock creek, which ad
monish us that cold winter is coming, in which there
will be no more device or labor on the " rugiog
dtep."
• . I
Hud Jen I>e atli.— G IV. (teterbout, who reside*
about fire miles up the creek while returning home
on Monday last with a load of coal, was seen by a
gentleman and lady who were coming down the
creek, when within a few rods of him, to tall easily
back upon the load upon which he was seated. The
horses which he was driving, stoppeJ, as be still,
even to death, held the lines tigb'ly grasped, his
fall oackward being just sufficient to < heck them.—
I pen coming uo to and examining him, he was found
to he perfectly lifeless Help was immediately sum
moned, and efforts ruado to restore animation, but
without success. This sudden death wss, no doubt,
the result of apoplexy or paralysis, a slight shock of
which was experienced I v him on a former occasion,
which at the time caused no serious inconvenience
•nd excited no apprehensions.
The deceased was a man of about 55 years of age.
AVas formerly a resident of Fails township, io this
county—where he was born. lie had an ex elb nt
common English education, aud was for many year*
a most successful Teacher in the Common Schools.
His uniform courtesy and kindness to all gained for
him many friends lie was an honest, kind-hearted
worthy citiien. Though not wholly free from faults,
he seemed more so than many men whose career in
life has been apparently more prosperous llis has
been checkered with vicissitudes and often clouded
with adversity, which he bore with commendable
resignation and fortitude.
We pay this passing tribute to the memory of him
who fer several winters, .t the District school, kind
ly and faithfully led us on in our ru limeital studies
and gave direction to our youthful aspirations.

Sad and Fatal Accldenr.— We are informed
by a correspondent that the house of John McNulty
at Dimock Corners, Susquehanna County was burn
ed on the night of the 16th inst., resulting in the
death of his three children and burning his wife so
badly as to cause her life to be despaired of. The
| fire oeeurred about 11 o'clock at night, while the in
mates of the house were wrapt in profound sleep, and
unconscious of the danger which surrounded them
i Our correspondent says " thst Mrs. McNnl'y was
, awakened by the fire, and she called for her eldest
1 son a boy of 15 years—Mr. McNulty being absent
from borne—to get one of the children out of the
windo but at that instant the roof fell in and the
three children were I urned to death. The mother
dug her way out, but is burned so badly th it death
: will soon release her. The boy was taken from the
; ruins with his head and feet burned of. The re
mains of the other two children were found the Dext
j day and gathered up.
Mr McNulty was at work at BinghAmton, trying
j to get money to pay for his little farm.
The fire is supposed to have originated from an
out-door fire which had been used for butcheriog
purposes.
Dangeinus Cushion—Some time since a phy
sician wiis consulted by a young man who received a
serious injury to bis eye, from its coming in contact
with a needle, while he was reclining upon the bo
som of a lady friend. Tbe needle penetrated tbe
eye. and caused so destructive an inflamation that
the Dr. was unable to subdue it before the vision
was entirely gone. Yourg holies —particularly
those who have lovers—take warning, ami use some
more suitable repository for your pins aDd needles
j than the front of your dresses. And young men
who will a wooing go, endeavor to s>e k your legiti
mate resting places, at home aod in bed before tbe
la'eness of the hour will necessitate the resting of
your beads upon so dangerous a pillow.
Foot H ace.—The Sharon Herald , speaking of
tbe foot raee announced for Saturday in that rill <ge,
says that it came ,ff at Bruokville Centre instead,
owing to a better adaptation of the ground, and
a<'da • "An admittance fee of 10 cents will be
charged, which will entitle the hearer to as good a
sight sis he can get of the race, as well as all the
fights that occur inside tbe fence. Outside fights
will of course he free."
I'ulike the foot races which occur in this locality.
The foot races, as well as the fight* that take place
inside and outside the fence, are all free. In fad,
the general practice is to take the public streets for
such exhibitions, where the young and the old, the
• alt and the blinl (?) can be eye-witnesses to the
meritorious (.') performances
Pay for %'our Paper.-Too ro..ny are apt to
think that it matters bu" little whether the newspa
per is paid for promptly or not; that it is su ha
uiall sum, and is of but littlo consequence. An ex
change make" the lollowing sensible remarks in re
lation to the matter. It speaks tbe sentiments of
the | ress generally when it says I'niess the cash
system is exclusively adopted and rigidly observed,
we know of no business whose bills are so difficult to
collect lliis is not be.ause the subscribers are un
willing to pay. but i' is principally owing to neglect
E.ith one imagines that because his year's indebt
edness atnoun's to so small asm ihe printer cannot
be much in want of it, without foe a moment think
ing that the Iruiis of his business are made up of
exactly such little sums, and that the aggregate of
all subscriptions is by no means an inconsiderable
amount of mouey, and wi'hont which the publishers
could not continue to issue their p*i>er."
Professor tlutc'ilngs at Gardner's Busi
ness t ollege, -Prof. Hutching*. "the famous
"Lightning Calculator" who has been engaged at
Barnaul's Museum for the past six years, performing
his miraculous feats with figures which astonished
everybody—will lecture at Gardner's Business Col

IJallou's Monthly Magazine.—This very pop
ular aul exceedingly cheap Magazine presents an
attractive table of contents for December. Ame
thyst Wayne's charming story. " The Derwent Eyes
and Haii." is completed ; Mrs. Edson's exciting se
rial. •' The Lady of Liudenwold," is intensely inter
esting, while "Paul's Romance," by Miss Hale,
and " My Darling," a poem, by James Franklin
Fitte, ate among the choicest of magazine reading.
: The illustrations are also remarkably good, making
this one of the best numbers of Ballou ever issued.
The publishers offer unusual attractions for the
i coming year. With the January number the Mag
| azine will be enlarged to one hundred pages, and
several new and attractive features introduced. —
Miss Willian has written a romance entitled, "So
as by Fire," which will commence the year. Ame
thyst Wayne will furnish an exciting serial story for
boys, entitled " Old Uugh's Look-off," which will
be fiuely illustrated by Ki.buro, and will appeal in
the new department, called " Our Young People's
Story Teller;" a popular author will furnish a
charming story for Girls, while there will be at least
a dozen other stories and poems of the highest liter
ary excellence, and intensely interesting, all com
plete in the January number.
It will ho seen from the foregoing that BaUna's
Magazine for 1866 will eclipse its present excellence,
while the extraordinary low price :a retained. It is
' only Si.so per year, or 15 cents a number. Clubs
receiye it for 5i,25. The proprietors have good
. c use for calling it "the cheapest magazine in the
world" Published bjr Elliott, Thomas A Talbot,

Schoolmaster Abroad,- The lollowing notice,
says an exchange, was picked up in the Borough
of Washington, Pa. and thinks thara most be a
" schoolmaster abroad" In oar land:
" Notice
is here by green that I High Coastahel of the Bor
ough has by orders of tbe Counsil pened np a bog
without a ring in her nose and I here by give notioe
so that tbe owaer can come and get the hog other
wise i will proseed according to Law June the 12th
A D 1867.
If this be called " schoolmaster abroad," we think
he had better be called home, and guarded by a
mosquito and a strong wood-louse, before more dam
age isdme the literature of (hecountry,and the voca
tion of honest and capable schoolmasters is injured
thereby But we would call " schoolmaster abroad"
a misnomer ; and, judging from the reading of tta
" notice," he appears to be a public functionary in
the Borough of Washington, exercising the high
catling of " High Cunatabel." His unusually sound
executive ability will undoubtedly commend him to
higher honors at the next election The Borough of
Washington was fortunate indeed in tbe selection of
" High Cocstabel," at least.

1 II OTUTTSE BLOOD.
Tbe necessity of a due proportion of iron in the
blood is well known to all medical men ; when it
becomes reduced from any cause whatever,the whole
system suffers, the weakest part being first attacked,
and a feeling or languor, lassitude, and "all gone
ness" pervadi s the system Stimulants only afford
T eml-oRAKY relief, and have the same effect asgiv.
ing a tired horee the whip instead of oats. The true
remedy is to supply the blood with tbe necessary
quantity of iron. This can be done by using the
PERUVIAN SYUUP.
a protected solution of the protoxide of Iron, which
is so prepared that it assimilates at once with the
blood, giving strength, vigor and new life to the
whole system
To take medicine to cure diseases occasioned by
.a deficiency of IRON IN THE BLOOD, without re
storing it to the system, is tike trying to repair a
building when the foundation is gone.
Ao eminent divine says : "f have beon using the
Peruvian Syrup tor some time past ; it gives me
new vigor buoyancy of spirits, elasticity of muscle."
