LOCAL Yawn—There was a terrible dearth in
the local news department yesterday. We could

exchange papers, and for finding anything to writ-9
about, that was totally out of the question.

Anus—We acknowledge the receipt, by the
Adams Express, of a. barrel of apples, of the vari
ety generally known as pound apples—not very
prime for eooking,but an excellent article for eat—
ing, as the four juveniles who have had the run of
the barrel for the last three days, will probably
readily testify. The apples were raised in Bed

they sell for 50 cents a. bushel.
The man from Bradford disposed of his entire
10t—3,000 bushels—on Tuesday last.
New RAILROAD.——The grading of the Ehensburg
and Gresson railroad has been completed to the
east end of Ebenshnrg. The liberality of the citi
zens and the energy of the officers certainly deserve
the highest commendation. It was a. great under
taking for a. town with only 1,000 inhabitants ever
to attempt to make a. railroad of ten miles in
length; yet the attempt was made, and the toad is
so far completed that the cars will be running on
part of it before the New Year. The Pennsylvania
Central Railroad Company has agreed to commence
the laying of the track by the 15th of this month.

finest of all fish taken in the Susquehanna, have
found their way to our market this fall, but the
Prim they are held at places them out of the reach
of men who keep no bank accounts, or are not
troubled with plethoric pocket-books. The other

pounds nan, lying in abaaket. “Ho! he!” said
we to ourself, “ Mrs. J. we’ll trouble you to scale
that fellow—we’ll have boiled salmon for din
ner !” “ What’s the price?” said we to the dealer.
“ Seventy—five cents,” said be. Well, we didn’t

on cabbage, beef and potatoes.
p 011. Excmunnr A“! TmrourE.—New discoveries
of valuable oils wells at Tidioute are being made
! nearly every day, says the Warren Ledger. Every
} 1’03! seems to he carried away in the whirl of ex-
A citement, and this section of the State is destined
to rival California. in its palmiest days. The cen
_ tre 0f “filament is around Tidioute Island, at pre
sent. This Island contains some four acres, and,
until within 3 few months was considered of no
value 5 consequently it remained in the possession
of the Commonwealth till the time mentioned,
when a citizen of Warren took out a, patent for it
at the land office 3‘ Harrisburg. Some valuable :
wells have been found upon the Island, and the
u squatters” have taken possession of an the adja
cent bars and shoal places in the river. The ‘
owners of the Island complain that this cordon of
derricks surrounding their PTOPETW: is an infringe
meat upon their personal rights. and the whole of
fair is likely to prove an innumerable number of
law-suits, if not to serious breaches of the peace.
Already, we understand, the parties interestedhan
cut adrift some of the floating “ claims” which sur
roud the Island, and this of itself will tend to in
crease the intense excitement which now prevails.
Asia usual in such cases the current of popular
feeling drifts strongly in favor of 'the‘“ equatters”
and this practical illustration of the principle of
“squatter Sovereignty.” . It does not become us to
give an Opinion as to whatis right or wrong in this
“Mr.“ “16 whole controversy will likely come be—
fore a judicial tribunal for adjudication.
MlDDLn‘rowx Itmks.—We clip the following items
from the Journal of yesterday :
Rob-benesc—ltseems that our borough is at pm
sent infested With a. bend of robbers. There is
scarcely a. night but somebody’s kitchen or cellar
is robbed. A few nights since, the cellar of Mr.
Samuel Landis was entered and robbed of a. bar
rel of mackerel, and all the eatahlel in the house;
9, large copper kettle was stolen from the PTF‘PiS“
of Mr. Jacob Rife, and a. number of other citizens
suffered more or less, by these seeundrcls, during
the present week. It is high time that something
was done to put an end to this wholesale 53'3“!“ Of
plunder. ‘
Accident.——On last Thursday afternoon, a young
lad of Mr. E. S. Yentzer, was severely out In the
face with aknife. It occurred during the recess
of school hours, while another young boy "as cut
ting at a stick, the knife slipping ofi‘ struck the nu.
fortunate boy in the face, as above stated._ This
should teach all others not to use a. knife in the
above manner, while a number of children are
standing around; in fact, it would he better if such
small boys were not allowed to curry knives at all.
Protracted Meeting—A pretreated meeting oom
mcnced in the Bethel Church on last Friday eve
ning, and is still in progress. Rev. J. 0. Sea
hrouks, of Landishurg, Perry county, and Rev. J.
Myers, of Auburn, Sohnyl kill county, were present
Attempted Bmylary.—We are informed that some
seoundrel made an attempt to enter the house of
Mr. Beck, on last Tuesday night, but evidently
suspecting some danger nigh, ho relinquished the
undertaking. We would advise the fellow and all
those of his stamp not to try it again, if they do
not wish to smell something that scents like pow
der and lend. These midnight robberies are beco—
ming too frequent in our place ; and why it is that
our citizens do not make arrangements to detect
these seoundrels, we do not understand. A num
ber of persons have procured revulvers, whieh'they
intend using on the first person who may attempt
to enter their premises.
Sabbath School Lechcre.—~A free lecture will be
delivered in the Lutheran Church on Sunday af
ternoon, the 11th of November, at. 2 o’clock, by
Mr. Geo. Kutzmnn, of this place, for the benefit of
the South Ward Mission School, of which Mr.
K.is Superintendent. Subject—The Training of
the Young. Mr. K. is one of our most intelligent
German citizens, and will no doubt deliver an in
teresting address. The lecture will be in English,
and a collection will be taken up at the close, to be
appropriated to the assistance of the Sabbath
Schgol mentioned. The public are invited to at
ten . .
The Fisherville correspondent gives the follow
ing items : - .
Yesterday, While several children, belonging to
J. F. Lantz, were playing on a stack of straw, one
of them, aged about nine years, slipped of and fell
upon a. knotty rail, one of the projecting knots
entering his body an a very dangerous place, and
serious doubts are entertained for his recovery.
A small child, while playing with a stick, fell off
a chair and broke its collar bone.
A very interesting revival is now in progress at
Straw’s Church ; scores are seeking salvation. The
exercises are conducted by Rev. J. W. Davidson ,
Paste..- of the E. Lutherqn congregacion.
CELLAR WALLS Axn FLoons.——Most cellars are
built without adequate provision being made for
keeping moisture from passing through the walls
from the outside, and up through the earthen floors
inside during rainy weather. The collar of a. house
should be dry, so as to render it comfortable and
healthy, as moisture in the lower part. of a dwelling
generelly makes the upper stories damp and chilly,
and causes mildew in clothes, books, and all house—
hold articles made of cloth and leather. Cellars
can be easily built so as to have dry walls, and
hard, dry floors; and the latter are invaluable to
prevent rats from burrowing, as well as dampness
‘from coming up from the soil beneath. To render
the cellar walls dry, they should be coated on the
outside with hydraulic cement, mixed with sand.
Houses in our cities have their cellar walls thus
treated in many instances, but their floors are ne
glectedr To make a cement floor the surface should
first be rammed down and leveled ; then hydraulic
cement mixed with sand, of about the consistency
of thick mortar, should be laid on to about one inch
in thickness, and its surface levelled with a scra
per made of a thick plank. In laying down such
a floor sections of about eight feet square should be
marked 05, and finished one after another. A coat
of clean sand or gravel, one inch thick, should be
laid on the top of the cemént; and, after it has
stood about half an hour, the whole should be
rammed down smooth witha pounder, when the
work is complete, after the surplus sand has been
swept ofl'. In a few days such a. floor becomes hard
as a stone, and quite impervious to water.

A BLACK REPUBLICAN FRAUDr—On Wednesday
last, on information of oflicer A. J. Wickert, Con
rad Miller was bound over to take his trial at the
next sessions for illegal voting at the late election.
The proof of his doing so consists in the fact that
he never took out his final naturalization papers
until Monday last. ,
A: frauds of this kind were no doubt extensively
perpetrated throughout the State in order to give
Gui-tin the large majority he received, and as it
will no douhtba repeated again on Tuesday next, we
caution our Democratic friends to he on their guard.
The following section of the law provides for the
punishment of such extenders: .
“91. If any person, not by law qualified, shell fraudu
lently vote at any election within this Commonwealth,
or being otherwise qualified, shall vote out of his proper
district, or if any person knowing the want of such
qualification, shall aid or 'pracure such person to note,
the person or persons so olfending, shall, on conviction,
be fined in any sum not exceeding two hundred dollars,
and 1211114} imprisoned for any term not exceeding three
mon s.
Conrad Miller was taken to the polls by Alex.
Koser, and he voted the entire Republican ticket.
Of course his guilt is clearly established. It is
also due to the purity of the ballot-box to oscertain
whether Koser was cognizant of the fact that Mil
ler was not a qualified voter, and also whether Mil
ler received any bribe, in “ meat, drink, money or
otherwise,"for which the law provides a. penalty.
Koser is a butcher, and most liberally patronized
by Democratic customers, none of whom have any.
objections to squandering the profits he has made
of them on Wide Awake parades or Black Rebup
lican jubilees, but 'they do most emphatically
object to him leading up illegal .votels to the polls,
to aid in defeating those who are legally entitled
to vote, and they will not let the matter rest either.
LYxnns Innis—We clip the following items
from the Journal of yesterday:
Progressing.—The Washington Rifle Company
is practicing the Zouave and other new drills, with
a view to attending the inauguration of Gov. Cur
tin. As Harrisburg does not profess to have a
military company, we presume the Washington
Rifle Company will have to represent the county
and receive the companies from abroad. -
Good Shoo/ing.—Dr. Geo. Dock, of Harrisburg,
visited these regions on a gunning excursion last
week. He bagged sixteen partridges, six phea
sants, and two rabbits, which, we take it, is a
pretty fair day’s work.
Confirmation.—Bishop Bowman, ot' the Protest
ant Episcopal Church, assifited by Rev. M. Lee
cock, of Harrisburg, was expected to administer
the rite of confirmation to several persons in this
place, last evening. -
A mule was killed by being jammed between
two cars in the Short Mountain mines, on Friday

A deer was wounded on the mountains near town
on Tuesday of last Week.

LETTER FROM ALTOONA
._._.._.__._
Correspondence of the Patnot and Union
Mnssns Enrrons:—A coal mining company in
the Allegheny coal region have for years been in
the habit of paying their laborers in goods, of which
frequent complaint has been made by the miners.
Previous to the late State electlon, they, the la
borers, were promised that if they would vote for
Curtin they should thereafter he paid half money
and half 900118. The proposition was accepted,
but the firm failing to pay any money, a strike was
the consequence—and a riot being anticipated this
(Tuesday) morning, two volunteer companies, ac
companied by the sherifi‘ of Blair county, proceeded
to the mines to quell the anticipated riot. UD till
now (10 o’clock, p. m.) we have hen-rd no news from
the seat of war. Is comment necessary? If so:
you may make it. I will not; but it. is easy to see
by this what base means were resorted to in order
to carry the election for the Black Republicans.

New Plum wu‘u TIIE oxl—cuLomoE on Zisc.—
Prof. Dussmnce gives an account of a new econom
ical paint with the oxLehloride of zine. There are
two ways to manufacture it. First, take chloride
of zine prepared by the ordinary process, and free
of acid, concentrating the solution so that when
cold it morks fifty-eight degrees Benurne. Then
prepare a solution containing, for three gallons,
four and one—half pounds carbonate of soda; mix
the two solutions in the proportion of nine ports of
the first for three gallons of the second. This
liquid so prepared€ is mixed with the white of
zinc, to form a. paint of the ordinary consistence,
which is applied immediately. Analysis 'shows
that in the above proportion there is one equiva
lent of chloride of zinc for one equivalent of ex ido.
If the sulphate of zinc be used, it must be a solu
tion marking 40 degrees Beoumo, adding for every
gallon one ounce of borate of soda. These solu
tions could be kept for a longtime, but the white
of zinc must he added only when ready for use,
and there must be prepared only the quantity suf
ficient to work one hour. This paint gives a very
fine white, and it covers as well as oil painting.—
It is very adhesive and solid ,- its price is half that
of the oxide of zinc; it is without smell, and may
be applied on wood, iron or cloth. It does not,
however, mix well with coloring matters, and must
be applied only as white paint. I
Tun SUBTLETY or Parsons—At a. recent discus
sion before the Society of Arts in London, on the
detection of arsenical poisoning, Dr. Letheby
traced the progress of toxicological research from
the trial of Donald, in 1815, up to the present time.
A little while before that period, ten grains of ar
senic were required to make a. metallic, test satis—
factory in a court of law. Afterwards Dr. Black
improved the process till he could detect the poison
if he had one grain to operate upon. It was then
thought a marvel of texicological skill when Dr.
Christison said he only required the 16th of a
grain; but now we can trace the presence of the
250,000,000 th of a grain of arsenic! It is to be
feared that the detection of this particular poison
has reached an almost dangerous degree of deli
cacy, and extreme caution is necessaay in examin
ation for its criminal administration. We live sur'
rounded by means of unconsciously absorbing
traces of arsenic; we breathe arsenicated dust from
_the green wall papers of our rooms; the confec
tioners supply it wholesale in their cake ornaments
and sweetmeats ; the very drugs prescribed for our
relief are tainted with erscnic; nay, more, even
our vegetable food, as Prof. Davy has lately poin
ted out, may be contaminated with arsenic; and
there is probably no drinking water containing
iron without a trace of arsenic as wall. The poi
son may thus be stored up in the system till, in
the course of yenrs,the amount becomes appre
ciable.
Tan PRINCE or WALES AND J UDGE Voxnansmrm.
We clip the following interview between the Prince
of Wales and Judge Vondersmith at the Eastern
Penitentiary, from one of our Philadelphia. ex_
changes: .
“The Royal party arrived at the prison about 1
o’clock on Wednesday, in company with his Honor,
Mayor Henry, Hon. Richard Vaux, and a number
of the other city oflicials. When the party arrived
at the entrance, there was an unusual number of
persons gathered in front of the prison in order to
get a sight of the future King of England. 0n the
arrival of the Prince and suit at the institution, the
party was put in charge of the' warden, John Pu .
Holloway, Esq ~ who accompanied them hastily
through the building. The Prince expressed a great
deal of satisfaction. The Prince and party were
then conducted to the cell of Judge Vondersmith—
the only inmate ot‘ the institution that he visited.
When the Prince entered the cell he took the Judge
by the hand and received him very kindly, and ex
pressed muoh sympathy for him. The Prince spied
upon the walls of his cell annmher of dried flowers,
which the Judge had very artistically arranged upon
drawing paper. The Prince examined them and
appeared much interested in the flowers. The Duke
of Newcastle and suite were standing at the door
of the cell when the Prince requested the Duke to
enter; he was then introduced to the Judge by the
Prince. They spent about fifteen minutes in con
versation with him. After the interview, the Prince
and Duke expressed great sympathy for the Judge
to the oflicers of the institution, and hoped that the
Executive would extend his clemency in his case
when application is made for his liberation. Every
person was surprised to hear the general sympathy
of the Royal party for the Judge, and several of
them remarked, ‘ what a pity for such a noble-look
ing man." '3‘ a I believe. that the sympathy is
general throughout the community for Judge Von
dersmith’s liberation. Ido hope that an efi'ort will
be made soon for his liberation by his friends in
Lao caster."
THERE is an old proverb which declares that
none can tell where the shoe pinches save he that
wears it. The maxim has a thousand applications.
A husband who appears to have found his wife a.
good deal less of an angel than he had imagined
in the days of his courtship, lets out some domes
tic secrets in the following graphic manner:
I own that she has charming locks
That on her shoulders fall;
What would you say to see the box:
In which she keeps them all ?
Her taper fingers, it is true,
Are dificult to match;
I wish, my friend, you only knew
How terribly they scratch!

STANCE, T 0 EFFECT A CURE‘ when timely used.
Never did we know an instance of dissatisfaction by any
one who used it. On the contrary, all me delighted with

its magical effects and medical virtues. We speak in
this matter -’= WHAT WE DO KNOW,” after ten years’

is familiar in every part of this country for the purity
of his celebrated Scamp»! SCHAPPS. Mr. WOLFE, in
his letter to me, speaking of the purity of his WINES
and nations, says: “ I will stake my reputation as a.
man, my standing as a merchant of thirty years’ resi
dence in the City of New York, that all the BRANDY and
WINES which I bnttle are pure as imported, and of the
best quality, and can be relied upon by every purchaserv ”

Read the following from the New York Courier
Exommus BUSINESS FOR ONE NEW YORK )lERCHANT.
We are happy to inform our fellow-citizens that there is
one place in our city where the physician, apothecary,
and country merchant, can go and purchase pure Wines
and Liquors, as pure as imported, and of the best quality.
W'e do not intend to give an elaborate description of this
merchant’s extensive business, although it will well re
pay any stranger or citizen to visit UDOLFHO WOLI-‘E’s
extensive warehouse, Nos. 18, 20 and 3, Beaver street
and Nos 17, 19 and 21, Marketfield street. His stock oi'
Schnapps on hand ready for shipment could not have
been less than thirty thousand cases; the Brandy, some
ten thousand cases—Vintages of 1836 to 1856; and ten
thousand cases of Madeira, Sherry and Port Wines,
Scotch and Irish Whisky, J amsica. and St. Croix Rum,
some very old and equal to anyin this country. He also
had three large cellars, filled with Brandy, Wines, &c.,
in casks, under Custom-House key, ready for bottling.
Mr. WOLFE’S sales of Schnapps last year amounted to
one hundred and eighty thousand dozen, and we hope in.
less than two years he may be equally successf With
his Brandies and Wines.
His business merits the patronage of every lover of
his species. Private families who wish pure Wines and
Liquors for medical use should send their orders direct
to Mr. Wonrn, until every Apothecary in the land make
up their minds to discard the poisonous stuff from their
shelves, and replace it with WOLFE ’3 pure Wines and
LIQUOBS. __ .
We understand Mr. WOLFE, for the accommodation of
small dealers in the country, puts up assorted cases of
Wines and Liquors. Such a man, and such a. merchant,
should be sustained against his tens of thousands of op
ponents in the United States, who sell nothing but imi
tations, ruinous alike to human health and happiness.
