Within the past to or three weeks, Good Templar Lodges hare been crgsoized at Falls, Fork?ton, Monroe. Mchoopany, y.rthmoreland and Russell Hill. In many of these plioe? organizations of ths kind bare heretofore been M known. With properly directed efforts these Lodg i! may bring about much good. the Statement of receipts and expenditures for this County during tho past year, makes our col amns a tittle crowded, and limits the amount and vnriety of our inside reading matter. The finances of the County, considering the recent heavy expenditures for new Jail, Bridge building, i f re, a? "'lt be seen, in good condition. Nearly tßl ugh ~f tho last year's heavy tax, remains uncol jseted. and in the hand' of the Treasurer to finish paying fof ike Jail. The Commtsssoners will proba llv levy a tax for County purposes ot only about half the a mount imposed last year. Fi^htl—The usu.il quiet of our town is now ana then disturbed by a grand rush of idlo men and boys towards some saloon or place where this classmost do congregate." The boys iu the streets, without seeing more —conclude that a display of the so called •' manly art of self-defence" is about to be nude— sud cry, at tbe top of their voices, ''fight! fight!' fight!!!" An event of this kind occurred in town a night or two since, in which one of the com batants threw a heavy iron weight, cutting a fright ful gash in the cheek ot the other, which will no doubt disfigure him for life. If men will so far for get their mannood as to en ;age in these disgraceful fights, they should at least observe w hat the "fancy" call " fair play." NOTE.

Tuning and Repairing,—-There are many persons in possession of Pianos and MelodeoOi that have been worn a good deal, or perhaps iiijuieJ, who could still have a good deal of substantia] wear out of them if they were properly put in order. To meet ibis large an 1 increasing demand L. 11. Powell has added to his Music Store iu Scranton a Repair .Shop, and has put it in charge of a man who has had large experience both in the manufacture ol new in strumcnts an 1 the repairing of old ones, so that he is no* prepared to do all kinds of repairing, including Pianos, Organs. Mclodeous, Guitars, Violins, Aecer deon*, and everything in the shape ol musical instru mints, with promptness and in asubstanti.il manner. 2w A Free Fight occurred at Mehoopany one night last week, which from the accounts given us, wis one of the freest of, the free.

To give the names of the one hun dred and four combatants would bo impossible ; and to furnish the names ef only a few of them might be considered unjust to the unnamed ptigna ion sly dis [vised heroes of this great battle. No lives were lost ; and but few wounds were received. Some bad blood and considerable worse whisky were spilt This latter article is thought, from its effects, to have contained " sfrtAe-nine" in large q ianti ies As these pugilistic encounters, taken separately, make one for each week of the year, it is to be hojie i we we shall not have occasion to report any more Irotn that quarter during the present year. Mercantile Appraiser.— James M Kelly, for merly of Veshoppen, now of this place, has been ap pointed Mercantile Appraiser of Wyoming County for this year, T he Insurance Conspiracy.—The people of Tioga ire much excited in relation to the approach irg trial of parties to a conspiracy which was dis covered last summer to insure buildings largely above their value, for the purpose 01 defrauding In surance Companies. The parties to it were Theo dore Hatfield, agent at Wellsboro', of the Commerce Insurance Company of Albany N Y., (who wasfor taerly in the Provost Marshal's office in Scranton) and one Tom Green. Tl e former to do the insuring and the latter the fning. On diecoveiy, eight in dictments were found against them, and they are to he tried on these this week at Wellsboro'. Tbo pros ecutor in the case is W. T. Reed, General Agent of the Wyoming Insurance Company of Wilkes Bane, one of the victimized companies. C. R. Knowlc, Attorney and General Agent of the Commerce In surance Company, is to attend the trial on behalf of the Natioral Board of I'nderwriters. There are five indictments against llatfield. The first building burned was the residence of A. Russell. It was an old house, and was insured for three times its value by Haifiold, an l Russell received the amount of in surance. llatfield, as Russell testified, represented to Kuweit, who had previously borne a good charac ter, thai his couipaoy was uewly represented there, and that it was usual in such cases to have two or three buildings burned, and tho hisses paid promptly, to operate as an advertisement for the company Russell objected, 'out was finally overruled, Hatfield agreeing to pay the premium, and telling him that he bad talk d the matter all over with the general tgent of the company, and he would have to sign no papers and make no affidavits, but was to pay Hat field SSOO and Green $250 from the proceeds of the insurance. The policy was granted July first. Be fore the day the furniture was principally removed to the loft of Russell's mill, across the street. In the meantime Green set fire to another building, and io doing so burned bis hands badly with kero sene oil. He then told Mrs. Russell that she must burn her house. She objected, telling hiin that she was afraid "God wouldn't like it" The house was burned, snd one month afterward the loss was ad justed Subsequently the furniture was found in the mill, the company notified, and all parties were ar rested, including Mr. and Mrs. R., who made a con fession on which the indictments were found. The hotel in which llatfield board, i. kept by D. G. Rit— ter, was also largely over insured, and subsequently burned. Hatfield claimed he bad furniture in this hotel which was lost, and received insurance money thereon, but it was subsequently ascertained that he had no furniture burned. The trial will he looked forward to with interest.— Scranton Republican. Malaria.— The decayed and decaying vegetation of newly aettled lands, when damp, exhale a mias matic poison which, absorbed through the lnngs into the blood, causes the intermittent fevers and kin dred diseases, which prevail in our Western States and Territories. But this great scourge of our rich alluvial bottoms in the West, is new robbed of its sting. Dr. Ayer has discovered an antidote which effectually neutralizes its venom : has combined it in a remedy—"Ayer's Agne Cure"—which rarely, or, as some of our neighbors say, never fails It is reliable both for prevention and cure. With it, men may live with complete immunity from the malig nant effluvia which has hitherto rendered many lo calities almost uninhabitable, Those suffering from Chilli and Fever may find in it immediate relief, and those exposed will find sure protection from a-} tack, by taking it in small quantities as a prevent ive,— lU.

Mr. Editors—After much skirmishing, nnd great preparajioos, for the past two months, the second battle between the " Templars" and the license men has been fought, without any decisive advantage to either party, resulting in much expense to the coun ty, and individuals—especially to the prosecutors, and prosecuted besides engendering much hard ness and rancorous feeling between neighbors, that for years heretofore were in peace and harmony in the pursuit of their several callings. As there can not be another general engagement until April, would it not be well for all concerned, to take such measures u will promote better, and more generous feelings 1 It must be plain to all conservative and unpreju diced minds, that to enforce an unpopular law upon an unwilling people, only makes a bad matter worse. It having been admitted by Good Templars aud true temperance men. that the prohibitory law for Wyo ming County was prematurely enforced upon people that were not sufficiently educated to receive it— which has been fully demonstrated | as among the numerous cases tried, not OD conviction has taken, place. Under all the circumstances would it not be better to take measures to get the act repealed, tf not directly by the legislature, have it referred to a vote of the people, by an net of the same, sufficiently early that licenses may be granted at April Session? in case tbe vote repeals tbe act. We all profess to be Democratic and ate willing to be governed in such cases by majorities. It strikes me that a compromise of the kind will have a tendency to bring us back to a more healthy posi tion Whatever the decision might be, the minority should be satisfied, and no doubt would conform to i the will of tbe majority. At all events the better part of society would have sufficient influence to ef fect acquiescence. There is no doubt if we are per | milled to fall back upon the general License Law— which is sufficiently stringent and guarded for the mo<-als of community —if it is enforced—that tho prohibitionists would command the sympathy if nut tbe assistance in the enforcement of it. Notwith standing your correspondent is classed among the out-laws, and set down as a drinking loafer, Ac., by the great Rev Davidson while delivering bis Tem plar Sermon at the Stark Church on the 13th inst., he will be found at all times in unison with those that have the wvlfare of society in keeping* and will aid and assist all good and conservative moo in the enforcement of all just laws.

The Peruvian Syrup supplies the blood with this vital clement, and gives strength and vigor to tbe whole system. ipttial JtotirfS. Among the many restoratives which nature haa supplied to relieve the afflictions of humanity, there is no more favorite one for a certain class of diseasea than the "medicinal gum" of the Wild Cherry Tree; but however valuable it is, its power to heal, to soothe, to relieve and to cure, is enhanced tenfold by scientific and judici"te combinntion with other ingredients, in themselves of equal worth. Thia happy mingling exists to a remarkable degree in Dr. Wlvtar's Haliam of Wild Cherry, whose value in curing Coughs, Colds. Bronch'tis, Whooping Cough, Croup, Asthma, Pulmonary Af fection, and Incipient Consumption is inestimable. Strong Testimony, . From Benjamin Wheeler, E.-q , Depot Master of South Royalston, Mass. "In the Spring of 1853 I was most severely afflict ed with a hard, dry cough, wdh its usual accompa niments of u : ght sweats, completely prostrating my nervous system, and producing soch a debilitated state of he.ii'.h that, after trying medical aid to no pur|s>se, I had given up all ho[es of ever recovering, as had also my friends At this stage of matters I was prevailed upon through the influence of a neigh bor to try Wisrar'a Balsam of Wild Cherry, and, be fore using two hottlea. the effect was almost magical. < My cough entirely left mo, the night sweats desert ed me, hope once more elated my depressed spirits, and soon I hid attained iny wonted strength and vigor Thus had this Balsam, as has often been re marked by peisons conversant with the above facts, literally snatched me from the yawning grave.
