the night previous. Jack was let slide, but previ

dollar; which one of his friends kindly loaned him
on the occasion.
THE SPRING ELEcnors.—Many persons are not
aware that our spring or primary elections are al
most as important as in the fall. We are not dis
posed to bring politics into the arena when candi
dates for constable, supetvisors, or school directors
are to be elected, yet at the same time we think
that the Democratic party should look to their own
interest, and see that good men and true are elec
ted to the offices of judges and inspectors.
BREACH OF TIM PEace.—Frank Moyer, a young
and unsophisticated German, was compelled to ap

brought before our alderman, and as Frank has

pose the case will ever be brought before court.

he then circulated about town and found himself
in the company of the Chief of Police. Mr. Shoe..
maker appeared before the Mayor yesterday mor
ning, and finding that his funds were almost run
out, ho begged most piteously to got outs /le
handed over the sum of $1 19 and was discharged.
Tag Goon Wtrn Fem.—The Good Will fair at
the Ezell/sego, which opened yesterday, is highly
creditable to the Ladies through whose exertions i t
has been gotten up. Tbere is a profusion of most
beautiful needlework and fancy articles and goods
of every day's use. The good things, such as pound
cake, pies, oysters, turtle soup, sad other rare tit
bits are enough to make the greatest epicure's
mouth water. We would advise those of our citi
zens who wish to patronise such a worthy company
as the Good Will, or whe wish to enjoy themselves
for an hour, to go to the fair this evening.
Orman RENTIAG.—Among the most serious evils
that afflict our country is the prevailing mania for
office, which forms one of the most striking char
acteristics of the American people, and which
seems to be an inevitable accompaniment of our
free Government and frequent political revolutions.
PTC*B.
There is no one in all this broad land who knows
the evils arising from an insatiable thirst for of
fice better than Forney, having lost the confidence
of his friends and betrayed his party as a recom
pense for holding one at the hands of the opposi
tion; but preaching a homily on these serious evils
reminds pee very much of `•Satan rebuking sin."
Damn THU MAYOL—There was a considerable
increase in the number of boarders at the "retreat °
on Tuesday night. Wm. Taylor, who was D. and
D., was fined three dollars and costs, but being mi

Carlisle barracks, was the next customer, and the
position of Thomas was changed from the station
house to the lull , for one calendar day.
Anthony Caingam, drunk and disorderly, had no
money and was discharged.
Frederick Dininger was found peregrinating
about town, and upon the polite invitation of the
Chief, Fred concluded that ho would visit the
Mayor; but as he was short of change, the Mayor
gave him a lodging room for the night, and sent
him on his way rejoicing the neat morning.

FIENDISH AND HORRIBLE MURDER IN JUNIATA
Conerv.—One of the most brutal murders we re
collect ever bearing of, occurred in Black Dog
Valley, Fayette township, about midway between
M'Alisterville and Richfield, and three miles east
of Stitzer's Mill, Juniata county, on Saturday eve
ning last, and which resulted in the death of an
aged and esteemed citizen named Henry Anker,
over 70;years old. The particulars, as detailed in
the Sentinel, are as follows : Some time between
the hours of 'T and 8 o'clock on that evening, two
men came to the house and asked for admission.
There were, at the time, three persons in the house,
Mr. Antler, ariold lady who acted as housekeeper,
and a grand daughter of Mr. Auker, aged about 14
years. Mr. Auker and the old lady had retired.
When the two men knoeked at the door, the girl
went to her grand-father and told him that two
men desired admission into the house. Mr. Auker
told the girl to admit them. As soon as they en
tered, one sat on the wood-boa near the stove, and
the other sat on a chair near the door at which
they entered. They then inquired of the girl who
were in the house, who told them, but said they
were both in bed. They then told her that they
wished to see Mr. Auker, who got up and came
into the room. After conversing with them on
various topics for about fifteen minutes, he asked
them what they wanted. The large man told him
that they wanted his money. Mr. Auker told them
that there was not $lO about the house, and that
they might search if they desired to. He then
got up and went to the door leading to his bed
room, over which hung his rifle. lie opened the
door and reached for his gun, and as soon as he
got it In his possession, the tall man went up to
him and shot him with a pistol through the arm,
near the elbow. Failing to prostrate him with the
pistol, he drew from under his garments a hatchet,
and struck him three times on the head, which
caused him to fall on the floor in P/14 insensible
condition. The ruffians, as if alarmed at their own
work, immediately fled, without making any search
for what they came after. The little girl ran at
once to the nearest neighbor's and gave the alarm,
and soon the whole neighborhood was apprised of
the atrocious murder. Mr. Auker died in about
au hour and a half after receiving the injury, with
out being able to speak a word. The next morn
ing a man upon observing the tracks leading from
the house, immediately said that one of the men
was John Lovering. Suspicion immediately rested
Upon him and a man named Zimmerman, and men
started off in pursuit of them. Zimmerman was
arrested at Goodwill, two miles east of M'A lister
villa, about 5 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, and ta
ken before Esquire Dunn, at M'Alisterville, and at
once proved hie innocence and was discharged.—
Constable Kenawell of Fayette township, was in
formed that Lovering and a man named Samuel
Bowder had left Zimmerman 's residence about 6
o'clock on Saturday evening. Howdei was arrested
in M'Alisterville about 6 o'clock on Sunday eve
ning, and said be bad left Zimmerman's in com
pany with Lovering the evening previous to hunt
roots. It was supposed that Lovering, if in the
county, was at the house of Peter Varner, in the
Shade Gap of the Shade Mountain, about four
miles north of M'Alisterville. About 8 o'clock a
party of men under the command of Constable
Kenawell, armed to the teeth, proceeded to the
house of Varner, which they immediately sur
rounded. On inquiring of Varner whether Love
ring was in the house, be said that he was about
somewhere. Some of them entered the house and
after searching, found Lovering crouched ander the
bed. A loaded pistol was found in his possession.
He was taken before Esquire Duna.
After the capture of Lovering, Howder turned
State's evidence against him, and related substan
tially the above facts. The little girl who was at
Auker's at the time the deed was committed, was
brought into the office of the Justice where some
twenty-five persons were congregated, and she at
once recognized Lovering as the man who shot her
grandfather, although she swore he bad whiskers
when he committed the act. Varner then swore
that he bad shaved Lovering on Sunday morning.
Both: Lovering and Howder were then remanded
to jail to answer to the charge of murder. They
arrived here about 0 o'clock on Monday morning,
and were confined in jail
An inquest was held on the body of the deceased
on Sunday afternoon, when a verdict was returned
that he had come to his death by blows inflicted
upon his head with a hatchet or an axe.
The deceased was a highly respectable and worthy
citizen of Fayette township, end was reputed as
being quite wealthy. He sold one of his farms
some time ago, and it was supposed that he had
considerable money in his possession. He was
buried on Monday. Ho leaves three daughters to
mourn his loss, whe are all married. We believe
he had no sons living.
DIED.—In San Francisco, California, on the
23d of January, in the 31st year of his age, Robb.
B. Wallace, eldest son of Wm. Q. Wallace, Esq., of
this city.
The deceased had been for some years connected
with the Sheriff's department, and was a well known
and popular citizen of that plasm Although not a
native of this city, he was for many years—from
youth to early manhood—a resident in our midst,
and will be remembered by a large number of our
citizens, who esteemed him for his many engaging
qualities of mind and heart. Mr. Wallace was cut
off in the flower of his years and usefulness—jost
too as be was enjoying the society of the eminent
persons whose confidence and friendship he bad
gained, in his far off home, by the suavity of his
manners and the integrity of his character.—
Those friends, as well as those of earlier years,
will ever entertain the most enthusiastic regard
for his memory. Remarkable for his passionate
attachment to his friends, be was met only to be
loved, lost only to be greatly mourned, by the
hosts of sympathetic hearts which, by this quality,
he entwined around his own. With truth, justice
and right stamped upon his manly brow, he en
tered the perilous mazes of the Pacific metropolis,
were hundreds of young men of rare itemise have
sunk under the effect of dissipation and despon
dency ; but he was enabled to live an ornament to
society, and to die leaving an example worthy to
be emulated by all. He was a loving, kind and
affectionate husband, son and brother, and his loss
will be keenly felt. His bereaved young wife,
who in California's clime endearingly eared for
him and smoothed his dying pillow, and his dis
tressed parents, brothers and sisters, have sin
cerely the sympathy of this community in this
their hour of deep-felt sorrow. A FRIEND.

Friendship Fire Company, No, 1, held in their hall
on Monday evening last, the following resolution
was unanimously adopted:
Ilerolved, That a vote of thanks be and is here

DANGEROUSLY ILL.—We regret to learn that Col.
Isaac Leech, at present a member of the Board of
Control, and formerly a member of the legislature,
is lying dangerously ill, at his residence in King
sessing. He has a severe attack of bilious fever,
assuming a typhoid character.
PLAYED OUT.—The attempt of some of our young
men to form a Zonave corps appears to have met
with but little success. We are, therefore, com
pelled to go without tho enjoyment of witnessing
the ground mid lofty tumbling of the Zemmol:

CLASSIC Grtouyn.—Sixth and Chestnut streets is
classic ground. Independence was declared there,
Congress met there until the City of Washington
was founded, and there stood " Old Drury," where
Fanny Kemble, Cooke, Cooper, Maeready, Ellsler
and Jenny Lind fascinated and delighted the play
goers of a past generation. " Old Drury" has de
parted ; but the ancient temple of the muses has a
fit successor in the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of
Rockhill di Wilson, Nos. 603 and 605 Chestnut
street, above Sixth, Philadelphia. There is no
more fine tragic declamation upon the spot; no
more celestial strains ; but there is the sober and
practical reality of a magnificent stook of clothing
of every description for gentlemen and youths.
A SPLENDID EXHIBITION COMING TO HARRIS-
Erßor.—Wo are pleased to announce to our readers
that Morrison's Grand Pan-tee-na-thec-a one of
the largest and most splendid exhibitions in the
world, will visit this place and exhibit at Brant's
Hall, for four nights, commencing March 18th.
We copy the following description of this exhi
bition from the New York papers. It will se seen
that the attractions offered surpass anything ever
yet brought to Harrisburg.
This Great Exhibition consists of five splendid
Panoramas, painted in a new and novel style, with
Dioramic effect on a scale of magnificence never
before attempted. They present to view as dis
tinct and plain as though one stood on the spot
represented the following scenes :
The city of Washington—the Capitol, with the
new Dome and Marble Extension—the inside of
the Capitol—the new Senate Chamber, with its
gorgecus decorations—the Hall of Representatives
—the Public Buildings of Washington—the Patent
Office—the U. S. Treasury—the Smithsonian In
stitute—the President's House and Grounds—and
the famous East Room in the .President's House,
where all the Levees are held—showing all its fur
niture, marble mantles, magnificent mirrors, and
glittering chandeliers, even to the colors and pat
tern of the two thousand dollar carpet that covers
the floor.
Then comes are splendid views of Niagara Falls—
&lowing them in every aspect, in summer and
winter—the Lake of a thousand Isles on the River
St. Lawrence—the Hudson River—and the entire
scenery of the White Mountains, from the snow
covered dome of Mount Washington to the old man
of the Mountain—magnificent scenes in New En
gland, Virginia, Minnesota, and California, with
three beautiful views in Mammoth Cave—showing
the great Gothic or Arched Gallery—Echo—River
—Lake Lethe and the Fairy Grotto with its Starry
Dome, magnificent columns and limpid waters,
making the scene one great resplendency of Gem,
Work, Blazing Carbuncles, Rubies and Molten
Gold.
But the great Feature in this Exhibition is the
Voyage across the Atlantic Ocean from New York
to Liverpool with Storm at Sea, in which all the
incidents of three thOusand miles travel on the
water are presented to 'view, with a distinctness
and vividness mocking reality, and leading the
spectators to believe themselves on the briny
deep.
The Great Phenomenon of the Moon Rising from
the Sea, is. to be witnessed by all, while in the
Storm at Sea, all the elements in their majesty are
to be seen and heard with such startling reality as
to cause old men to shiver and the young children
to cling closer to their parents.
Arriving at Liverpool we have a view of that
city—then a splendid view of the great City of
London—with the River Thames and Bridges—
the new Houses of Parliament, St. Paul's Church,
Leaving London, the beautiful scenery of the
River Rhine, is presented to view—the Swiss Alps
—Scenery in Italy—Ruins of Pompeii—the whole
exhibition concluding with a grand view of the
Eruption of Mount Vesuvius, as it appeared in the
year '79 when it destroyed the cities of Hercula
neum and Pompeii.
This Magnificent Entertainment was That exhi
bited in London for 280 consecutive nights, and
was visited by more than half a million of people.
It has recently been brought to America, and ex
hibited in the New England States, where it has
been visited by admiring thousands.
The Exhibition will be shown in this place pre
cisely the same as in London, and all who visit it
are guaranteed two hours of amazement, wonder
ment and delight.

your sons and husbands, for while the former from false
delicacy, often go down to a premature grave, rather
than let their condition be known in time, the latter are
often so mixed up with the excitement of business, that
if it were not for you, they, too, would travel inthe same
downward path until it is too late to arrest their fatal
fall. Bat the mother is always vigilant, and to you we
confidently appeal; for we are sure your never-failing
affection will unerringly point you to PROF. WOOD'S

Prof. WOOD'S Restorative Cordial ard Blood Renova
tor is a genuine medicine of real merit, pleasant to the
tinge and invigorating to the system. While it purifies
the blood and soothes the nervous initation, it aids the
organs of digestion to perform their functions, and re
sist the assault of disease. It is a chemical compound
so skillfully eomtined that while it exhilarates it does
not provoke the lassitude which usually follows excite
ment. A tonic, composed exclusively of vegetable mat
ter, it is absolutely Deneficial, and no ill effects can pos
sibly accompany its use It is an infallible and speedy
remedy for Loss of Appetite, Faintness, Nervous Debil
ity, Neuralgia, Pa'pitation of the lieart, Falling of the
Womb, and other delicate diseases to which woman is
subject. For Sickness of the stomach, Bilious Attacks,
Liver Complaints, Costivenes=, Dyspepsia, Consumption,
and a host of evils flesh is heir to, it is a certain cure.—
Si. Louis Morning herald.
PROS. WOOD'S RESTORATIVE CORDIAL .—lt is recorded
in the Classics that Psyche was once sent to a climate
warmer than the West Indies, to procure a sample of the
beauty of Prosperine in a box. After some delay the
me‘ senger returned, and as soon as the lid of the bait
was removed, out dew all the ills that flesh is heir to.—
Fortuna& ly, hope was found in the bottom of the boa.
Piof. WOOD'S Restorative Cordial revives the recollec
tion of the story, for it invigorates the blood, aids the
organs of digestion, imparts strength to the nervous sys
tem, ant fortifies the citadel of health, so as to bid de
fiance to the assaults of disease. It is a healthy tonic,
composed entirely of vegetable productions, and while
it is exhilarating as pure wine, no inju•ions results can
possibly follow its use. It is a desideratum in the medi •
cal world, and those who are afflicted with loss of appe
tite, Dyspepsia, Consumption, Faintness, Giddiness,
Neauralgia, Palpitation of the Heart, &c., will find here
an infallible panacea.—St. Louis Daily Express.
PROP. WOOD'S RESTORATIVE CORDIAL AND BLOOD REN
OVATOR is, without doubt, the best tonic Cordial in the
world. To those who are suffering from General Debili
ty Lire would recommend its use, for it is pleasant to the
taste, is strengthening to the system, and will at once
tend to remove allimpurities of the blood, and eradicate
all traces of disease. It can be tatten by the weakest
Stomach, while those in good health wilt st once feel its
exhilarating power. We are confident that after using
one boilte of this Cordial none will be fora day without
it.—New York L eader
A Pon; REALTuv TONIC, and one free from the dele
terious and injurious effects sure to fellow those in ordi
nary use, has long been felt to be a desideratum in the
medical world. such a tonic, and one so skillfully com
bined from the vegetable kingdom as to act in perfect
accordance with the laws of nature, and thus soothe the
weakest stomach, and at the same time allay nervous
and other irritations, and tone up all the organs of which
the human body is composed, is offered in Prof. WOOD'S
Restorative Cordial and Blood Renovator. Hence, it is
perfectly adapted to old and young. Reader, try it
Thousands have already done so, and the testimony is
universal in its favor.—New York Atlas.
PROF. WOOD'S RESTORATIVE CORDIAL AND BLOOD REN
OVATOR, for the cure of General Debility, or Weakness
arising from any cause; also, Dyspepsia, Nervousness,
Night Sweats, ent Consumption, Liver Cemplaints,
Biliousness, Loss of Appetite, Female Weakness in all

tainly the best and most agreeable Cordial tonic and
Renovator ever offered to the Oh cted, and so chemically
combined as to be the most powerful tonic ever known to
medical seience. Reader, try it. It will do you, good.
We have no hesitation in recommending it, since we
know it to be a safe, pleasant and sure remedy for the
diseases enumerated,—New York Dispatch.
11:7"Before noticing a. patent medicine, we have to
be certain that it will prove itself to be all that it is re
commended. And We would say that the Restorative
Cordial and Blood Renovator of prof. Wood will stand
the test fully, and in fact it is without any doubt the
first article in the market for Purifying the Blood and
strengthening the system. We have no hesitation in
recommending its use to 511.—Now Yorker.
Loom TO YOURSELF IN TIME .—trOß" many, in conse
uanee of a false delicacy, suffer from SttpPassed, p4iit
feat or obstructed menstruation, and think because they
are young that bye-and-bye nature will work itself clear
from obstructions, and all come right in the end, little
dreaming that the seeds of death ore already germinating
in the system because the vital energies are impaired,
and the entire animal economy deranged, debilitated ;
and yet, careless of themselves as they are, if &remedy
wore set before them which would restore all the func
tions of the system, and re-invigorate the body, they
would take it, and thus - be in time to save their lives.—
Parents think of this, and at once give them a bottle of
