BELLEF ON TE—ITS BUSINESS MEN—
IIALW Torns—Wnr.un _Ann TEEY—Ecno
..tsswEr:s WnEnE lefont e, long since
acknowledged as one of the most beauti
fully romantic towns in the State, has now
become notorious for the wealth, enter
prise and moral and christian character of
her citizens and business men. The town
is growing rapidly, and we perdict that a
few years more of honest Republican rule
will entitle her to rank as one of the great
cities of Pennsylvania. The best evidence
that any person can have of the pros
perity of the fanners, mechanics and work
ing men everywhere throughout the comi
ty, is the character of the citizens and the
appearance of public and private buildings
in the county seat. When the country is
in a prosperous condition, and all classes
well paid for their labor, the town flourishes,
and when the, people have peace and plenty,
and our merchants are supplying our
wants, and all are getting rich, who wants
a change ? Who wants to return to the
way things were done years ago—to the
good old days of Adam and of Eve, and of
Democracy? When everybody prospers
who is there left to cry. hard times ? We
are sure sou will hear no complaints from
the old and reliable firm of
'TOFFEE DLO'S.
This firm, one of the oldest in the place, is
doing a splendid business. They meet
with success because they deservo it. Now
go with us into the store in the adjoining
room. There stands our old friend
D. M. WAGNER
behind the desk, looking as pleasant as did
Gen. Grant when Lee surrendered his
sword at Appomattox Court House. When
a man is flourishing, :how can be look
otherwise than pleasant. Look at his
stock of goods. The gentlemanly clerks
are ready to wait upon you and sell you
goods nearly as low as they sold before the
war, while 21r. Wagner, himself, offers you
the very highest market price for your
grain. co complaints here. Let us now
call upon that excellent mechanic and first
class saddler,
J. A. 31'CLtiltE
See how composed he looks. No com
plaints come from his lips. Even the Ere
could not. force a complaint from him. His
new building is the best evidence of his
prosperity. All he wants is the farmers to
buy harness. saddles, and other "little et
ceferas" and hand over the Greenbacks.
His work is warranted good, as he employs
only the best of workmen. In order not
to make the subject a dry one, you can
slip out of Mr. 3l'Gittre's,. and just across
the street you will find 'that sociable and
enterprising man,
J. E. ETTELE,
dealer in all kinds of whiskies, imported
brandies, wines, gin, &c, lie labors to
please everybody. if be fails to please you,
just step over to the opposite side of the
street and there you will find the wholesale
liquor store of
MEESE
He is always accommodating, and ready
to attend to customers. He keeps con
stantly on band a large supply of foreign
and domestic wines, as well as liquors of
all kinds. He has been well patronized
and has no complaints to make. Would
not change the preseut Greenback currency
for the old State bank notes if he could.
But as bread is the staff of life let us pay
a visit to the "New Bakery" of
S. J. 3I'DOWELL,
where can be found a good assortment of
pies, cakes, bread, candies,' &c. And as
opposition is the life of trade, on Allegheny
street you will find the spendid establish
ment of
J. Q. SANDS
Bread, fancy and ornamented cakes, con
fectionaries and almost everything in his
hne, that hungry people want, can be ob
tained here. But if you want potatoes,
hams, flour, groceries, canned fruit, good
fresh butter, or anything usually kept in
grocery stores, call on our friend
CAPT. M. RUNKLE
He deserves success, and should be pat
ronized by every ]over of his country and
of Liberty. Capt. Runkle lost an ann in
the slave holder's rebellion. Manfully did
he fight for his country, and now let the
people, without regard to party, reward
him by nobly sustaining him in his busi
ness. We are happy to say that the Captain
has no occasion to complain of bard times.
LOBE, MAX & LOEB.
Do they complain? No! They are get
ting along swimingly. They constitute a
strong firm, and take great pleasure in
showing and selling their goods. No signs
of hard times here, let us call in and see
CAPT. FRI:BERGER.
The Captain deals in tobacco, snuff and
cigars. Ile is a clevec fellow, and is doing
a good business. No signs of hard times
here. Tobacco is classed among the lux
uries of life, and so long as people can en
joy the luxuries they desire, they will not
be likely to complain of hard times. It is
hard to find a happier set of fellows than
the Captain and his customers. Having
taken a chew of Mirley's hue cut, Id us
enter the store of our friend
J. B. COOK.
Here we find a well filled store. Every=
thing in fine order. Prices as low as the
lowest, good and accommodating clerks,
and Mr. Cook, himself always ready to re
ceive and wait upon those who favor him
with a call. lie is progressive as well as
liberal, and merits the full share of patron
age be receives. In the ne:lt room you
will find
STERNBERG te CO
Sternberg succeeded because he advertised.
Always selling. Always defying competi
tion, and always talking, he manages to
sell clothing of the best quality as low as
they can be purchased elsewhere. Be
never complains and would not exchange
the present good times for the "no money
and all order" system which existed when
he first came to our town. Be has flourish
ed remarkably since ISGO.
Now, as it is about train time, let us go
to the post office. Here in the same room
'we find the meichant tailoring establish
ment of
Iv. W. MONTGOMERY
Everything in its place, and a place for
everything, is his motto. First class goods
and neat fits the invariable rule of the
proprietor. On the opposite side of the
alley is our old friend
JOfl B.
one of the oldest business men in the
town. Ills reputation is fully established,
and to please his customers is his greatest
pleasure. A little further down, in that
beautiful new brick building is the stove
store of
N. iiitLir.isu
He has for many years supplied the people
with good and cheap stoves, tinware, &c.,
and now his gentlemanly sons are doing
their utmost to please old customers and
to gain new ones. May they meet with
abundant success is our sincere wish.
GEO. D. PIFER.
Wheie is his store? Just next door to
the post office. Ills store is well filled,
prices moderate, and clerks attentive and
obliging. Ile attends to business as faith
fully as he fought the battles of his coun
try. In the nest we find.
WM. m'cLELIAND,
Merchant tailor. Ire labors to please his
customers, and never fails to give them
jils in exchange for Greenbacks. If you
are through looking at his goods, and bare
been prevailed upon by some ex-rebel or
copperhead to believe that you are too poor
to purchase a suit of clothes, just step into
ruamc GREEN'S
Drug store, and purchase a dose of pain
killer, and a box of Green's pills and we
will warrant immediate relief. Frank is a
clever fellow. His drug store is well sup
plied with medicines of all kinds. lie
merits the success with which lie meets.
Next door you will find our friend
aE o. rArroN.
•
Jewelry of all kinds can be obtained from .
him remarkably low. He has always on
hand a good assortment of clocks and
watches. He also has the regulator of the
town so far as time is concerned. By pay
ing him a visit our copperhead friends can
see at just what hour on the sth day of
November next the doom of Seymour and
Blair will be sealed forever. A few bottles
of Lindsey's blood purifier for sale at the
Drug store of
FRANIi WILSON,
may save individual members of the De=
mocratic party, but it will have the very
opposite efteet unless they abstain from
the use of whisky from this time to the
election. Mr. Wilson keeps everything in
his business that will ease pain or cure the
ills that flesh is heir to, but we are confi
dent he haS nothing in his beautiful store
that will save the copperheads from defeat
and political death. What a stench there
will be after the election. We would ad
vise Mr. Wilson to -keep constantly on
hand a large supply of •
SIIO.RTLIDGE & CO.'S
wood burnt lime. Without doubt this is
the best lime in the State. Car loads of it
are constantly being shipped to all parts of
the country. Plasterers who have used
this lime, absolutely refuse to work any
other: takes the prize always at the
State fair.. This company also supplies the
best and cheapest coal in the market. No
complaints or signs of hard times in this
quarter. Let us step into
BITInkiSIDE'S
store. Everything is in first-rate order.
Boots. shoes, geoceOes, and almost any
thing you can call for, at remarkably low
rates. lie must succeed because he ad
vertises extensively. Next door is the
hardware store of
IRWIN & WILSON
Step in, gentlemen. Look around you.
Such an assortment? Did you ever look
upon its like before ? Hardly room to turn
around, the store is so full. And how
wonderfully low the prices. Who could
have believed it, in the :very face of the
Democratic cry of hard times !! No signs
of hard times at Irwin & Wilson's. Per
haps we will find lb= in • the Bellefonte
shoe store of
GII--111A-31 c.% SO2
How is it here? Prosperity only more
prosperous ! What a magnificent assort
ment of boots and shoes of all sorts and
sizes. How well made, and selected with
so much taste and judgment. Prices al
most as low as before the war. Hard
timesl hard times ! we cannot find you.
Let us step up stairs and ask
slinom co
What they know about hard times. How
is the sadlery and harness business ? Nev
er better, is the answer. The farmers are
all getting rich under Republican rule and
the reconstruction acts of Congress. They
are adding farm to farm. No revenue tax
on land ! They are throwing away their
old saddles and old harness and buying
new from Shrom S: Co. Good times, good
times. You must try again, Mr. Editor.
Well, we have a few more places to call.
Let us inquire of our friend
J. D. MILLED,
successor to . lilusloe Bro., dealer in
books, paper, envelopes, revenue stamps,
&e., &c. The store is full. People con
stantly flocking to buy books, paper, ink,
&c. Mr. Miller never was in so prosper
ous a condition. We hope the people will
continue to call. Let us step down the
street a few doors further and see our
friend
JOIL\ POWEItS,
fashionable boot and shoe maker. Woik
in abundance. Prices good. Customers
able and willing to pay right down in
Greenbacks. Hard times. No ! Not in
Mr. Power's shop. The cry of hard times
must be a lie gotten up by unprincipled
politicians, for the sake of having them
selves elected Judges, Congressmen, or to
some other office. Go with us to the
grocery store of
SECIILEI: &.moortE,
in the Humes stand. Hard times here ?
o ! Gentlemanly proprietors. Doing a
good business. Customers increasing
every day. Fresh goods constantly ar
riving. Nothing but an over dose of Pen
dleton Greenbacks can ever hurt them or
the country. They deserve success. Let
us leave these men for they are doing ex
ceedingly well, and call upon our friend
PETER 3I'MAIIAN,
than whom there is no better boot and
shoe maker in the town. Look around
you. Work in abundance. Customers
all able to pay. No signs of hard times
here. No travelling journeymen. How
unlike the hard times of 1557, under De
mocratic free trade rule. Now step into
the meat market of
KLINE (S: 31.'COY.
Any hard times here, gentlemen ? Do you
want a change ? Change ? Yes, we are
always willing to change meat for Green
backs. How is business, we ask? Good;
very good, indeed. The only trouble is
we have to pay so high for cattle. Poor
limners, we thought. What a pity that
they suffer so ! $OO to $BO for a three year
old steer. Messrs. Cline Sz McCoy are
obliging and kind, and will meet with suc
cess. rn this business there is also com
)etition. Our friend
B. V. BLACK,
on Bishop street, is doing all in his power
to supply the people with meat. He nev
er cries hard times without reason. He is
doing a splendid business. Success attend
him. But we must return to Broekerhoff
row. We forgot to pay a visit to our
enterprising and honest friends
J. & J. .11.A.R1215.
They are doing an extensive businese in
hardware, &c. See how the store is crowd
ed with customers. Mechanics, laboring
men and farmers are building, and the
Messrs. Harris supply them with all the
nails, locks, hinges and all kinds of hard
ware they need. No signs of hard times
here. Let us now call upon the firm of
P. 3rAFFREY & CO.
How is it, Pat ? The people are sustain
ing you nobly. Do you know anything
of hard times ? Your stock is not sur
passed by any in the town. You take
pleasure we know, in supplying your cus
tomers with the very best of boots and
shoes. You want nct change but Green
backs. On High street is the store of our
old friend
A. SUSS3LAN
He owns his store room. - Has no rent to
pay, and of course sells cheap. His word
is as good as his bonds. Does he com
plain of hard times ? No ! Not he, there
is not a house in town doing a better busi
ness. Well, let us visit the
HARPER BRO.'S 4 CO.
Surely they will complain. if they do not
the politicians of the Seymour and Blair
school must be laboring very hard to de
ceive the people. How is it Messrs. Har
per ? New house. New firm, strong and
reliable. All sprung up in the last few
years. Store full of customers. Green
backs in abundance and nearly as good as
gold. No hard times here. No desire to
see the currency inflated and ruin and dis
aster brought upon the country by the
adoption of the Pendleton-Seymour theory.
We say to this firm persevere and you will
succeed. Next door you will find the
furniture store of
JOHN BRACKBILL
What splendid furniture, and bow astonish-
THE NATIONAL, BELLEFONTE, PA., FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 4, 1868.
ingly low the prices. Mr. Brackbill is a
perfect gentleman and has no complaints
to make. In Bush's Arcade we find
ZIMIERMAZT 331:0.'S & CO
This is a young and enterprising firm.
Doing a splendid business because they are
clever fellows and advertise. All is pros
perous here. Plenty of custom. Plenty of
money. Goods selling very low.. in the
same building we find
C. ALM:,
with an excellent stock of goods. He is
always ready to show and to sell goods.
He is doing a good business, and knows
nothing of the hard times we read about.
Next door we ffnd
G. IV. FAIRER.
His store is a model, and he is doing a
splendid business. He is worthy the con
deuce of the people. No signs of hard
times here. Let us go into the two large
rooms of
HOWELL. GILLIL.,UcD & CO
This is a strong firm with an extensive
stock of goods and groceries. Doing a
splendid business. - They say nothing of
hard times, because they are sensible men
and know that the people would only laugh
at them if they complained. They know
their business and attend to it well. Up
stairs in this same building we find that
clever man and most excellent tailor,
WM. S. T.RIPPLE
More work than he can do; but always
ready to take in more and to hire more
hands. Ile invites all who want new
clothes to give him a call. Our lady friends
will find next door to Wm. S. Tripple, our
friends,
SUSS PE/CILLA. MILT, & CO.,
with a fine assortment of millinary and
dress goods. Call in ladies and sec for
yourselves. Just across the creek you will
find our enterprising friend
ISAAC ITAT.TPT.
His stoves are celebrated throughout the
country. Isaac advertises extensively, at
tends to business closely, and must and
will succeed. "Heaven helps those that
help themselves." We almost forgot to
call attention to the firm of
A.T.. - ExAmpra: .t CO.,
lime burners, dealers in lime, &c. We
notice you shipping car.
.loads of lime.
how is this Cyrus? Do you talk about
bard times on the stump ? If you do, you
must be careful not to tell what a prosper
ous business you are engaged in, and that
you are adding farm to farm, and have
no revenue tax to pay on real estate. This
is a clever firm doing a good business, and
for shame-sake they do not talk of hard
times. Where will we find bard times, if
none of our business men complain ? Let
us stroll into the Watchmen office and
have a short conversation with the editor,
P. G.11.A.Y MEEIC7
the would-be second edit:on of Brick
Pomeroy. Under the administration of
James Buchanan, and the bard times cot
sequent upon the free trade policy of the
Democratic party, P. G. Meek was little
and unknown to fame. Had not a dollar
in the world to call his own. Under a
Republican administration, in spite of
himself, he has become rich. Did he make
his money by sustaining the Government?
No! He did it by pulling , the wool over
the eyes of his readers, and by the most
bitter and vituperative abuse of the Gov
ernment and all loyal men. Gray preaches
bard times and equal taxation, and laughs
at those who are silly enough to be duped
by him, while he stuffs the Greenbacks
deep down in his trowsers pockets. ,It
will not do Gray. You cannot dupe hon
est Democrats any longer. You can't cry
hard times when everybody is prospering,
without making yourself supremely ridicu
lous. You want to go to the Legislature
again! You can't go. The people have
determined that question. Tell the truth,
Gray, and shame the devil, then if you get
rich we have no objection. Bat this abomi
nable system of lying and hyprocrisy that
you have practiced so long, we despise most
heartily.
We don't like the atmosphere in your
office, Gray, so, good morning. We will
go to Howard street and see our friend
IL P. HARRIS,
undertaker and cabinet maker. Henry is
a most excellent workman, warrants his
work and sells at reasonable prices. Sey
mour and Blair, a-hoy, and all the other
dead copperheads, after the election, can
be supplied with coffins, and we will help
to bury them to the tune of the Rogue's
March, and cover their graves kindly with
the
DELIMFONTE
formerly the CENTRAL PRESS. Having
purchased the presses, good will and fix
tures of this office, we have determined to
make it a live Republican paper—the ad
vocate of equal and exact justice to al
men. We will tell the truth at all times.
Our facilities for Job Work are not sur
passed by any printing establishment in
the State, while our prices are reasonable
and low. You can find no signs of hard
times in our office. The former editor
and proprietor of the CENTRAL PRESS,
J. G. KURTZ, ESQ.,
will now devote his attention to painting
signs, transparencies, &c. Mr. Kurtz is a
good Mechanic. During the last ten years
he worked for the Republican party faith
fully and well, and to the best of his abili
ty. We bespeak - for him a liberal support.
D. 11. BATES, ESQ.—Superintnttdent of
the Western Union Telegraph Line is now
greeting occasionally our town with his .
presenc6: Ile came here to pay a visit to
his brother-in-law, Mr. Bond Valentine,
who, by the way, is one of the many sound
union men, whose purse was ever open to
aid in Plitting down the slaveholders re
bellion. Mr. Bates is a first class business
man—is an adept in the telegraphing
business, and perfect master of his pro
fession. Ile is more. Ile is a genial
companion and a perfect gentleman. We
suggest that our business men put them
selves to some trouble, if needs be to make
his acquaintance. It may be beneficial to
them in a business point of view, and
also, aid in the facilities for news and in
the prosperity of our town.
BELLEFONTE ACADEMF.—We are pleased
to learn that our Academy has started tin
der very favorable auspices. The session
opened on Wednesday, the 2nd inst., in the
North Wing of the Academy building
which has been repaintei and otherwise
improved. We understand that singing is
to made an every-day exercise. In our
opinion the importan :c of this exercise as
a means of moral and physical culture, can
not be over estimated. We hope the time
will come at no distant day when in all oue
schools singing will be considered quitr
as necessary and important as spelling or
any other exercise. The Rev. Mr. Hughes,
the principal of the i.cademy, comes to us
with a large experience and a high repu.
tation for thoroughness and culture, which
should ensure a large attendance. We ex
pect to see this school one of the perma
nent institutions of our town.
HORSII STEALING.—On Sunday night
last, a colored boy went-to the farm of Mr.
Jacob Stover, in Haines township, in this
county, and stole two valuable horses.
On Monday morning Mr. Stover went in
search of his horses, and met one of them
running loose on the road near Millheirn,
and the other he found in a pine woods,
some distance further on, with his throat
cut. The villian, missing the arteries, the
animal is still living, though very severely
wounded. The boy is now lodged in jail
and affects simplicity, but most likely will
be brought to a proper understanding at
the next term of court.

MIEMIN AND CENTRE COUNTY R. It:
funds necessary for the survey of the
route of this rail road, have been subscrib
ed by citizens of our town and the town
ships of Hains and Potter. The engineers
have been written for and may be expo
ted to begin the survey in a short time.
In the meantime let our people seriously
consider the vast importance of this road,
in the developments of our commercial
and manufacturing interests and deter
mine that cost what it will, the road must
be built. It is not too much to say that
its completion would treble the business
of Bellefonte. and double the value of prop
erly along its rout. Let us be alive to
our own interests.
Am - DE - rm.—On Monday night, 31st ult.
Frank Bush and Andy Stein, went on
the Allegheny mountains in the vicinity of
Hunter's Dale Saw Mill, for the purpose of
watching a "deer lick." We learn that
Bush posted himself near a "lick," with
the intention of shooting a deer, in the
event of one making its appearance. When
Stein came in the vicinity Bush mistook
him for a deer and fired, the ball passing
through his chest, causing his death in
about ten minutes. This is certainly a
melancbolly affair. The parties were
brothers-in-law, and quite young men.
Persons failing to receive the paper this
week from the carrier will please call at
:he office, where we will supply them. The
carrier being a "bran" new one, it can
hardly be expected he will perform his
duty as well as the former one.

of Jace on High street, last week, will save
her credit by returing the same, as she is
known.
