Mumma's Inumerr..--On Sunday the body
dead infant was found near Cox's saw-mill, on the
Lebanon Valley railroad. The coroner was sum
moned and an inquest held, which resulted in a
verdict of abortion; but up to the present time no
clue can be obtained to the guilty parties.

Willow Brook cotton factory will be put in opera
tion in a short time, or as soon as it can be com
pleted. It is a very spacious building, and will
employ a large number of hands.
Tan Sinzwiliats.—Now that the weather is he
mming pleasant we hope our citizens will pay some
attention to their side walks. Many of theta are
in a shocking condition and sadly out of repair.
These things may pass in a country town but look
bad in a city.
Tais CASE OF Aonsmozia.—The counsel for
Thomas J. Armstrong, convicted of murder in the
first degree, in having killed Robert Crawford,
in Philadelphia, obtained a writ of error to the Su
preme Court. The Court fixed Harrisburg as the
place for the argument, which is set down for May.
Saurany.—But one lodger appeared at the "re
treat" on Sunday night. Me was a German on his
way to Washington, in search of Carl Sellars and
that "land for the landless." Guess he'll find that
;and, but that is about all. The Mayor let him
elide. •

Love lane, in the western part of our city, ap
peared before Alderman Kline yesterday, and
made complaint against her sister, charging her
with keeping a "disrespectful" house. The par
ties failed to appear in the afternoon, at the ap
poieted time, and the case was dismissed for the
Present
CHICKEN Ttuzvas.—The police of Philadelphia
eapturei a number of boys who were in the habit
of stealing chickens. In order to entrap the .
chickens, they adopted a novel mode of procedure.
A string, with a fish book at one end, and baited
with a grain of corn, is laid in tho street, and
when the unsuspecting fowl swallows the kernel,
it becomes captive and is carried away.
Mr. Abraham Lloyd, one of our oldest citizens,
departed this life on Sunday last, at the advanced
age of seventy-six years and eleven months. Mr.
Lloyd has resided here for a number of years, and
was engaged in the useful occupation of school
teaching in the rural districts of this and adjoining
counties. His funeral will take place to-day, at 2
o'clock, from his late residence, in Cranberry alley,
near Second street.
Pau( SURDAY.—Sunday last was Palm Sunday,
Which precedes Easter one week. It is a promi
nent di/7 in the calendar of the Roman Catholic
and Episcopal Churches, and takes its rise from
the reception of Christ just before his entry into
Jerusalem, as described in the 21st chapter of St.
Matthew, Bth verse : "And a very great multitude
spread their garments in the way; others out down
branches from the tress and strewed them in the
Way."
ornusic.—That favorite ont-door game among
the toys — hop-scotch—was in full tide of success,
daring the first part of: the month, when the
weather was milder. It is an amusing pastime,
and good exert se, but very- deetrutive to shoe
leather, as many anxious parents can testify. But
it is "au ill wind that blows nobody any good."
and the cobblers will reap a harvest of small
thange for numerous Patches nn if the
TUE LAWRENCE MODEL LODGING HOUSES.—The
late Abbot Lawrence, of Massachusetts, left $50,000
to be appropriated to the erection of model lodging
houses, so that the poor might have a convenient
and comfortable home at a moderate rent, and to
show capitalists that they can get fair interest for
their money by building such structures. His ex
ecutors, after much deliberation, have Yi dopted the
following plan, which is worthy of imitation by
tenement builders in all our cities :
tacit building will be nearly rectangular, 41 feet
wide by 63 feet long, four stories high, with French
roof; built of brick, with freestone dressings. The
building will be so located on• the lot as to admit of
drive-ways upon all sides, thereby giving an abun
dance of light and air to all the tenements. There
will be four tenements upon each of the five floors,
arranged with four rooms for each tenement, with
closets, such as water closet, store closet, coal and
wood closet and clothes presses. Each tenement is
entirely separated from the other tenements by
brick partition walls. The entrance ball or street
passage is in the centre longitudinally, and runs
quite through the building, with a rotunda in the
een tre, 16 feet in diameter, in which are placed upon
either side of the hall passage a flight of CU, t iron
stairs. The ball passage, as well as the walls of
the rotunda, are built of brick, and the floors are
paved with brick throughout, rendering the en
trances from bottom to top nearly fire proof. In
the basement will be arranged a store cellar for
each tenement, and a public bath room. All the
rooms will be amply ventilated.
PUBLISHING THE LAWS.-If the present Legisla
ture desires to signalize the last days of its session,
by an act that will redound to its credit, and re
ceive the public approbation, it should at once
enact a bill for the publication of all the laws
passed at each session. The Erie Observer says;
Two years ago a bill for this purpose was drawn
up by the writer of this article, and introduced by
a member from the county in which wo then resi
ded, bat owing to his negligence, and a press of
business, that prevented us from urging the adop
tion of the measure, it lay neglected in the hands
of the committee. We should like to see the press .
of this State, unite in a determined demand for the
passage of some just measure of this kind. Perhaps
the best plan to obtain its success, would be for the
editorial association to appoint a committee to draft
a bill, and then let its members secure the influ
ence of the Representatives from their respective
counties in its support. By this means, with a
fair and impartial bill, the measure would readily
be adopted, and a vast step tasen towards a more
general public enlightenment. New York is far
ahead of us, in this matter, as in many others, but
we siueerely trust she will not long continue so.
THE METHODIST CONPERENCE.—This body com
menced its sessionjat the Union M. E. Church, in
Philadelphia, on Wednesday morning last... The
Conference comprises some three hundred minis
ters. They are from parts of Maryland, Delaware
and Pennsylvania, and the appointments of many
of them lie at a distance of one hundred miles from
that city. At present the two Conferences of West
ern Maryland and Pennsylvania are in session at
Chambersbnrg and Staunton. It is thought that
both these bodies will take action on the recent
change of church discipline at the Buffalo General
Conference, and secede from the church north. A
movement will probably be made at the Conference
in that city to protest against the late action of
the General Conference. An effort will also be
made to divide the Philadelphia Conference, which
was defeated last time, and which gave rise to such
an exciting scene. The Conference is presided
over by the Rev. Bishop Janes.
IMPORTANT HINT TO PARNERS.—As post and rail
fences are more put up in this time of the year
than any other, the following is well deserving of
attention : It is well known that in taking down
old fences, that holes often between two and three
feet in depth, are left in the ground by the remo
val of the posts. These, when left so, are often
not only dangerous to the limbs of cattle and live
stock generally, but often in wet weather are half
filled with water—should any young chickens or
turkeys happen to fall In them, they would be
drowned; in dry weather, they would starve, as it
would be impossible for them to extricate them
selves. One farmer inforins ns that during last
summer he lost several young broods of chickens,
besides several goslings, before be knew of such a
danger. In these pitfalls are also many toads,
which render so much service in the destruction of
insects. The proper plan would be to have the
holes soon filled up, or else they may be injurious
for years.
AN ETHIOPIAN RAID.—On Saturday night three
of the sable monks of Tanner's alley were arrested
by constable Fleck, on the charge of committing
depredations and creating a disturbance in that
classic region. They were taken to the leek up,
where they enjoyed the hospitality of Dan for one
"calendar" night, after which the Mayor deemed .
it advisable to send them over. The party con
sisted of an intelligent crew of Ethiopian "black
guards." First came "Hop-toad," then "Ginger,"
who has no wool where it ought to grow, and then
Bill Biscoe, all three of them being notorious for
their riotous conduct nightly. After a hearing the
Mayor concluded to bind them over in the sum of
three hundred dollars each for their appearance at
Court.

cheap Carpetings which have been received just

Sam's dry goods store. Among which will be

which you will fLad at Brownold & Sara% Wyeth's

LECTURE.—WiIIiam H. Armstrong, Esq., member
of the House of Representatives from Lycoming,
will deliver a lecture on "Egypt," in the hall of
the House, this evening. The simple announce.
meat of this fact should secure Mr. Armstrong a
large audience, as his well known ability and thor
ough knowledge of the subject he proposes to treat,
guarantee that the lecture will prove entertaining
and instructive. Mr. Armstrong delivers this lec
ture by request of the Young Men's Christian As.
sociation.
SUSPENDED.—The ' publication of the Daily
Leader, published in Reading by J. Robley Dung
lbws, Esq., was suspended with last Monday's is
-8110. The Leader had reached its 159th number,
having been commenced a little over six months
ago. Mr. Dunglison has disposed of his subscrip
tion list and good will to the proprietor of the
Daily Times, who will henceforth supply that pa
per to the patrons of the Leader.
Dnusx AND DlSORDERLY.—There . appears to be
a mania on the part of some young men in this city
to get drunk on Saturday night. Why it is we
cannot imagine, unless it is because they have been
paid off, got the "spoons," and feel rich. Rum
drinking every Saturday night, and a few years
more added to their existence will make a change
in their feelings.
BOTIILS VS. RAILROADS.—The various hotels in
the city of Chicago have sent to the office of the
agent of the Illinois Central Railroad the bulletin
boards of the company, which have heretofore oc
cupied conspicuous places in their offices. It is
understood that the reason fur this course is the re
fusal on the part of the road to send the usual an
nual passes fur the proprietors.
ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN RAILROAD.-
Track laying on this road was to have been re
sumed the present week, and if the weather should
prove favorable, a junction with the Sunbury and
Erie road at Union will be effected before the first
of April. One hundred and twenty-five men are
in readiness, and the iron is en route from New
York, where enough is now lying to lay the track
through to Meadville. The line through to Union
is in readiness, with the exception of a fifty foot
embankment near Columbus, which, on account of
hasty and partially completed waste-ditches for
the flood last fall, was swept away by the recent
rains.
POETICAL.-
" TWNB in the ball room's mazy round,
A beauteous form I saw;
The sweetness of her countenance
Around did many draw.
She spoke in silvery accents low,
And with a syren's tongue—
I heard her whisper to a friend
4•AS'a /, go it toh.ile you're young."

SPECIAL NOTICES.
PURIFY YOUR BLOOD.—BRANDRETII'S
PILLS WARRANTED TO CURE FEVER AND AGUE.—The
effect of purging with BRANDRETIPS PILLS is to re
store the health, no matter from what cause it may be
suffering. They take out all impurities from the sys
tem; and they have the same power of expulsion over
miasrn, poisonous vapor of decayed vegetables, or indeed
any poisonous exhalations breathed by man whatever.
In fact, if the blood is poisoned, it is impure, and im
pure blood results in disease.
BRANDRETIPS PILLS,
though innocent as bread, yet they are capakle of rind
fying the blood and curing disease. So, they cure all
kinds of fevers, all asthmas, catarrhs, costiveness and
painful affections of every kind.

READ WHAT A DISTINGUISHED PHYSICIAN
OF ST. LOUIS SAYS OF IT.
St. Louis, July 10th, 1860.
0. J.. Woon, Esq.: Dear Sir—Allow me the pleasure
and satisfaction to transmit to you the beneficial effects
of your Hair Restorative after a trial of five years. I
commenced using your Restorative in January, 1865,
since which time I have not been without a bottle on
hand. When I commenced the use, my hair was quite
thin, and at least one-third gray. A few applications
stopped its falling, and in three weeks time there was
not a gray hair to be found, neither has there been up to
this time.
After my hair was completely restored, I continued its
use by applying two or three times per month. My hair
has ever continued healthy, soft and glossy, and my scalp
perfectly free from dandruff. I do not imagine the facts
above mentioned will be of any particular advantage to
you, or even flatter your vanity at this late day, as I am
well aware they are all well known already, and even
more wonderful ones throughout the Union. I have oc
cupied my time in traveling the greater part of the time
the past three years, and haws taken pride and pleasure
in recommending your Restorative and exhibiting its
effects in my own case. in several instances I have met
with people that have pronounced it a humbug ; saying
they had used it, and without effect. In every instance,
however, it proved by probing the matter, that they had
not used the article at all, but had used some new arti
cle, said to be as good as yours, and selling at about half
the price. I have noticed two or three articles myself
advertised as above, which I have no doubt are humbugs.
It is astonishing that people will patronize =article of
no reputation, when there is one at hand that has been
proved beyond a doubt.
Apparently, some of those charlatans havenot brains
enough to write an advertisement, as I notice they have
copied yours, word for word in several instances, merely
inserting some other name in place of yours.
I have, within the past five years, seen and talked with
more than two thousand persona that have used your
preparation with perfect `success—some for baldness,
gray hair, scald head, dandruff, and every disease the
scalp and head are subject to. •
I called to see you, personally, at your original place
of business here, but learned you were now living in New
York.
You nee at liberty to publish this or to refer parties to
me. Any communication addressed to me, care box
1920, will be promptly answered. Yours, truly,
JAMES WHITE, M. D.
Warren Springs, Perry Co., PA., June 7th, 1850.
PROF. WOOD: Dear Sir—l was induced more than a
year ago to try your valuable Hair Restorative, for the
purpose of cleansing my head of dandruff. I bad suf
fered with it upon my head for years, and had never been
able to get anything to do me any good in removing it,
although I had tried many preparations, until I saw
your advertisement in a Rarrisburgpaper. Beingthere
at the time, I called at Gross & Ross's Drug Store
and bought a bottle; and now am prepared to recommend
it to universal use, for it has completelyremoved all dand
ruff from my head, and an application once in two weeks
keeps it free from any itching or other unpleasantness.—
I must also state that my hair had become quite white
in places, and, by the use of your preparation, has been
restored to its original color. lam now 50 years of age,
and although I have used two bottles of the Restora
tive, no one has any knowledge of it, as I allow a few
gray hairs to remain in order to have my appearance
comport with my age. My head is now of less trouble
to me, in keeping it clean, &c., than at any time since
I have been a child. I consider your preparation o fgreat
value. and although I do not like
_to expose myself, I
consider it my duty to say so. You can use this, or any
part of it. in any shape you think proper, if it is worth
anything to you
Bloomington, Ind., July 30th, 1850.
Dear Sir :—I here send you a statement that I think
yen are entitled to the benefit of. I am a resident of
Bloomington and hare been for over thirtyyears. lam
now over 50 years of age. For about twenty years past
my hair has been turning considerably gray, and was
almost entirely white, and very stiff and unpliant. I
had seen a number of certificates of the very wonderful
effect of your Hair Restorative, but supposed there was
more fiction than truth in them i but entertaining a
strong desire to have my hair, if possible, restored to its
original color and fineness, as it was in my younger days
a beautiful black, I concluded I would make the experi
ment, commencing in a small way. 1 purchased one of
your small bottles, at one dollar, and commenced using,
following directions as nearly as I could. I soon discov
ered the dandruff removed, and my hair. that was fall
iog off in large quantities, was consideranly tightened,
and a radical change taking place in the color. I have
continued to use it till I have used three of your sma'l
bottles. and just begun on the fourth. I have now as
pretty a head of dark brown, or light black hair, as any
man, or as I had in me youthful days when a boy in tte
hills of Western Virginia. My head is entirely clear of
dandruff; and the hair ceased entirely falling off, and is
as soft and flue, and feels as oily, as though it was just
from under the hands of a French shampooer. Many
of my acquaintances frequently say to me, "Butler, where
did you get that line wig ?" i tell them it wan the ef
feces of your Restorative. It is almost impossible to
convince them that it is the original hair of the same
old gray head. Yours, truly,
FREDERICK T. BUTLER,
• Bloomington, Monroe County, Indiana.
PROF. WOOD'S HAIR RESTOSATI another e6l
- will be found an advertisement of this well-known
a.i.d excellent preparation for restoring gray hair to its
miginal•eolor. The Hair Restorative also cures cuta
neous eruptions, and prevents the hair falling off. We
have seen many authentic testimonials in proof of these
assertions, some of which are from gentlemen whom we
have known for many years as persons of the most re
liable character. Don't dye till you have tried this Re
storative.—Bostoit Mice Branch.
WOOD'S HIM RESTORATIVS.—We are not in the habit
of puffing every new discovery, for nine cases of ten
they are quack nostrums, but we take great pleasure in
recommending Professor Wood's article to all whose hair
is falling off, or turning gray. Our well-known contri
butor, Finley Johnson, Esq., has experienced the bene
fits of its application, and joins with us in speaking of its
virtues. Let all try it, and bald heads will be as rare as
snow in Summer.—Baltimore Patriot.
WOOD'S HAIR HESTORATIVR.—Hake most specifies,
this is proved, by unimpeachable evidence, to possess
great efficacy as a restorer of the hair to its pristine
vigor. Where the head had become almost bald because
of sickness, the use of this article has produced a beau
tiful growth of thick, glossy hair. /t is therefore a val
uable preparation for all classes, Its ingredients are
such as to effectually eradicate dandruff and other im
purities, which operate so injuriously to the hair. It
also has curative properties of another descripti u In
many cases pimples and other disfigurements of the skin
disappear wherever it is used. There is no hazard at
taching to the trial of this remedy, and its effects can
only be beneficial, as the compound, if it does not cause
armanifest improvement, is incapable of doing harm, as
its component elements are perfeetly inriovious.—Bos
ton Transcript, Aprtl22,
A GENUINE Boor —ln our capacity as conductor of a
public journal we are called upon to advertise the cure
alls of the day, each of which claims to he unadultera
ted in its composition and infallible in its curative ef
fects—with what justice we leave our readers to deter
mine. In one instance, however—Prof. Wood's Hair
Restorative—we are so well assured of the notable
qualities of the article that we give it our endorsement
as all that its inventor and vender claims it to he. Its
effect upon a falling head of hair is universally known to
be magical; like lime or guano on exhausted land, it
brings its crop wherever applied. Our own thatch is
fortunately healthy, but we advise our friends with
sparsely growing hair to trythe Restorative.—Cuiunthiu
Spy.

QUACK Nosviton, x -The majority of hair washes, hair
dyes, hair tonics, hair oils, and the numberlessprepara
tions which are now before the public under such ex
travagant, hyperbolical and fantastic titles as we see
paraded in show windows and newhpaper headings, as
hair preparations, are all humbugs of the first water;
their real merit, when they possess any, is, that they do
no harm. Hog's lard, whale oil, lard oil, sweet oil,
scented and colored, make up, when in beautiful wrap
pers, and white flint glass bottles, the costliest character
of tonics, and when thus costly, are baptisedwith some
tri-syllable term, and caught at by verdant young and
old of both sexes. Buck is not the character of Prof.
Wood's Hair Restorative. This gentleman comes before
the world without any “highfalutin” Xilophloforium or
any other astounding and startling catch-penny term ; he
simply advertises a Hair Restorative—what it expresses,
precisely—and as a Restorative it acts. Buy Professor
Wood's Hair Restorative, and as you value your scalp,
aye, your very brains, apply nothing else ; for it maybe
that you will get some worse substance than perfumed
lard oil on your cranium. ilemember, Wood's Restora
tive for the Hair is the best article extant. —Nero York
