WE accept the blockaded condition of

WE unite our regrets, with those expres

OWING to the immense through ship
ments on the P. &E. R. R. as well as on
the Penna Central, the coal dealers along the
line of these roads have been deprived of
their usual supply, and although Shortlidge
& Co., of this place, have made strenuous
exertions to obtain cars, they have up to the
present writing been not a little inconveni
enced through want of coal. 31r. Short
lidge assures us, however, that the people
can from this time forth be regularly sup
plied, as his stock is coining to hand.
WE are glad to see onr friend Felty of.
the marble cutting establishment doing so
well. He is over-run with business. His
aim is to give entire satisfaction, hence,
his success. Located as it is, just at th
R. R. depot, his shop serves as a strong re
minder of man's mortality ; and although
the individuals who is about to trust him
self to the uncertainties of Railroad travel
ling may feel a momentary squeamishness
as he views the shop and its surroundings,
we are assured that Felty's being near the
depot don't make Railroad accidents one
whit more frequent.
ADVICE TO VOTERS.—On the 3d day o
November the voters of Centre county will
be called upon to discharge a sacred duty
they owe to themselves. There are two
parties in the contest. One of these two
parties is doomed to defeat, and with that
defeat there • will be a great depression of
spirits, superinducing a loss of appetite
and an entire derangement of the digestive
organs. The unfortunate in the contest,
aforesaid, will find a wholesome panacea
in Hoofiand's German Bitters that will
speedily restore the tone of their stomachs
and enable vthem to resume business.
These preparations are for sale by Drug
gists and dealers in Medicines everywhere.
WE invite from our friends throughout
the county, communications of interest.
State facts, mention the occurrences, and
we will put them in shape. Incidents
which may seem quite common-place in
your estimation, and which you may think
devoid of interest entirely, may be of vast
importance to Our readers in other sec
tions. It is our object to furnish a paper
o' general interest. Let us effect a mutual
benefit arrangement. We'll endeavor to
furnish a readable paper, thus contributing
to your pleasure; you can give us an oc
casional item, and in this way assist us.
Our purpose is to identify our paper with
the business interests of this town and
county. The town as is well known "is
on the improve," and we are determined
to keep pace with it, so we say again,
'chuck' the items at us.
Poou norsE.—Do our tax-payers ever
think of the propriety of -establishing a
county Poor House, as a means of lighten
ing their own taxation, and providing more
comfortable for the unfortunate, of whom
it is said "the poor ye have with you al
ways." Other counties have tried this
matter and found it a success. In
deed some of them report their "poor
farms" as not only affording <omfortable
homes to their poor, at the same time fur
nishinesuitable employment, which is in
finitely better than idleness in any case but
acctually a source of revenue to the coun
ty. Money invested in farms usually pays
about four per cent. while experience shows
that a "poor farm" property conducted can
and does yield from six to seven per cent.
on the investment. But what matter if it
should yield but two or three per cent. is it
not worthy of serious consideration, inas
much as it will to some extent reduce tax
ation, while it furnishes comfort and con
venience in cases where now the reverse
exists. All men are liable to misfortune ;
and let us not attempt to justify ourselves
when doing, the least tie case will admit of.
Let us see if it is possible to improve the
cryuditkxi of our poor. We hope our read

MIFFLIN AND CENTRE COUNTY RAIL
ROAD.—We will state, for the benefit of
those of our readers who may have con
cluded that this road is among the impos
sibilities, that it has been shown to be not
only feasible in itself, but a fact that will
be accomplished sooner than most of our
people expect it. We have been furnished
with some of the notes made of the route
by Chief Engineer Byers, from which we
extract the following :
"The distance from Bellefonte to Milroy,
by the experimental survey that has been
made during the past month, is thirty-six.
miles. The grade does not exceed forty
five feet per mile ascending from Bellefonte
to Bear Meadow Creek. From Bear Mea
dow Creek to Foust's, a distance of eight
miles, the grade ascends sixty feet to the
mile, and from Foust's to Milroy, eight
miles, the grade descends one hundred and
twenty feet per mile on straight lines, and
equated on curves. There will be two or
three short tunnels on Spring Creek, the
distance saved by tunnelling, however, will
more than pay for the tunnels. Mr. By
ers is of the opinion that there will be
about two miles of heavy work crossing
Bear Meadow, another mile near Potter's
Mills, and two or three more near Milroy,
while the balance of the line can be graded
very cheaply. He tells us that lines from
Bear Meadow Creek, by the way of Boals
burg, will be surveyed next month, and
that a map, profile and estimates will •be
made as soon after the surveys are com
pleted, as possible, showing the different
routes and cost. Suffice it to say, that the
road will cost very much less than was sup
posed, as less than $'150,000 will be re
quired to put the entire line froM Belle
fonte to Milroy in readiness for the cars.
We are glad to know that our people are
becoming awake to the importance of this
line of road, and we shall have more to say
on this matter at another time.
MAP.KET HOUSE.—Have the good people
of our town, or rather those to whom we
are accustomed to look for the initiation of
improvements in our midst, given over all
thought of a market house. If you are at
all dubious on the matter of a location, al
low us, gentlemen, to suggest the ground
near the water-works, a lot one hundred
feet square can be had there, running with
in about fifty feet of the water-works, and
so situated that a building can be erec
ted convenient to the creek, which if it is
necessrry can carry away the offal ; it
will be easy of access, and is every way de
sirable. If properly managed it will be a
source of income to the Borough. Think
of it, as a paying investment. Can we
hope that our Borough Fathers will put
their "frosty paws together, and evolve from
their giant intellects,' a market, house that
shall, as a monument of their wisdom, and
kind consideration of our people's wants.
Let us state in this connection, that should
the "Fathers" neglect this matter, others .
of our citizens will be allowed to try their
hand at it.
A SOLDIER DISCHARGED BY HIS EM
PLOYER FOR REFUSING TO VOTE FOR
SEYMOUR.-Wm. Dale, a soldier of the
Regt. P. V., was discharged by Jno.
Hoy, of Spring township, on Tuesday, 27th
inst., because be refused to vote against
General Grant. By means of this bread
and-butter argument, Mr. Roy forced two
men to vote the Democratic ticket at the
State election. This is Democratic regard
for the laboring man ; forcing him on the
verge of winter to vote against the ver3
principles which are keeping him alive, on
pain of discharge from employment.
The above statement was communicated
to us by a perfectly reliable gentleman,
who assures us of its truthfulness. And
sonic may say, "what about it ; whose af
fair is it ; hasn't Mr. Hoy a perfect right to
suit his own convenience." We will 00 .
remark of it, that it is but another evidence
of Democratic consistency, found at home.
Democracy has sadly degenerated ; and
the type now most prevalent, has no need
of manliness or fair dealing. Truth and
honesty have no place in the political creed
of that party. But "drive on your mules,
gentlemen," your political doom is fast ap •
proaching, and be assured that we feel
charitably inclined towards you, while w
witness your gyrations, since we know
that in their nature they can but be
temporary.
TITE following article which as will be
seen is clipped from the columns of the
State Guard, is well worthy a perussl by
our citizens, here as'well as elsewhere. Mr.
Wein Forney, the author of the article, wat.
formerly a resident of this place, and speaks
by the book. If there be any error in his
statements it consists of too low an estimate,
by about ten thousand, of the value of the
improvements now in progress :
BROCKEEROFF HOUSE,
BELLEFONTE, OCT. 54th, 1868.
[Editorial Corespondence State Guard.]
One of the most . impressive facts con
nected with the history of the last eight
years, is, that the country, even while com
pelled to struggle with the most gigantic re
hellion ever waged to destroy a great
government., the States which conten
ded with treason made more progress in
development during the four years of the
war, and the four years which followtd, than
they achieved during any eight years for
the last half century. No locality in Penn
sylvania demonstrates this fact more grand
fly than Bellefonte, a village in 1850, of not
more than 1,400 inhabitants, and in 1860,
with a population not exceeding 2,500,
idle to-day it has not less than 4,500.
For many years the t - iwnshilis surround
ing Bellefonte contained the principal iron
works of this reg,Ton Vallentine's fur
naces and rolling mills on the east, and
Curtin's furnaces and rolling mills on the
west, works still in existence, and prosper
ing with that wonderful profit which re
wards all such enterprises. Thomas's
flour mill,within the bo rough, did the work
of a large portion of the country immedi
ately surrounding it, while water capacity
of froth one to three hundred horse -power
was actually wasted, its owners content to
have it so, regardless of the injury done
thereby to the real prosperity of the town.
This condition of affairs continued until
within three years, when Mr. D. G. Bush
gave an impetus to the enterprise of Belle
fonte by commencing the erection of a stu
pendous block of three-story brick build
ings, designed for stores society rooms and
a public ball. The locality selected for
this purpose was the last ever dreamed of as
likely to be occupied, but now that enter
prise has overcome what was deemed an
insurmountaole obstacle, we see in what
were formerly deemed sites which woul .
never be of practical use, the most magnif
icent residences standing, stupendous pub
lic buildings rearing their towering fronts,
and manufacturing establishments in pros
perous operation. To us, all this appears
like a dream when we visit the locality thus
improved ; and, where before startling vis
ions of grizzly bears flitted across our path,
or the gay merriment of useless dissipation
startled the gloom of mound and meadow,
we now hear the hnm of great business,
and behold the megnificent results of vast
financial enterprise.
In order to show what has been accom_
Ogled by the people of this thriving bor
ough, in three years, we enumerate, as a
record for the curious reader in other parts
of the State, a list of the investments made
here within the time specified. The list
will be a matter of gratification tom . read

The aggregate of these investments, all
.made within a little over three years, and
by the peolle :icing in or near the borough
of Bellefonte sums up exactly five hundred
and seventy Seven• thousand dollars. We
are ready at any time to make a similar
statement for any other borough in the
State which can show a like incease of pop
ulation, and investment of capital in the
same time.
The Bellefonte Glass Works are located
on a branch of the Bald Eagle railroad,
which runs to the factory's doors. The ma
terial is all delivered and the glass taken
immediately from the factory without any
carting. The works are now in full opera
tion, making a first rate article of window
glass, enameled glass, and shades, which
for color and finish cannot be surpassed by
any glass made in this country, or the
French cylinder glass. They have a first
class set of workmen from the best manu
factories in New Jersey, and are producing
100 boxes per week by each blower or 1,000
per week by the whole number of blowers.
The color should recommend it to picture
dealers, being so nearly coloress that the
picture is shown as it is, without the green
tinge so common in American glass. In
null: it has the appearance of pure :Tring
water.
The coal is obtained from the celebrated
Snow Shoe mines. The sand is obtained
from the Bald Eagle valley, and is of supe
rior quality. The lime •is burnt at the
works.
In a few years, (within five at least,)
dellefonte must become one of the most

of location, which w 11 run from Lewistown
• hrough Penns Valley to the Nittany Moun
..ains, around the foot of which it will reach
Nittany Valley, and thence run through
Bellefonte to connect with the road now
in operation in the Bald Eagle Valley, new
kids of inexhaustible resources will be
opened to speedy transit to market, and
new avenues be created for trade to find its
way to this borough. The importance of
3uch railroad facillities cannot now he esti
mated. When completed we have no hes
itation in predicting that Bellefonte and
dcinity will become an immensely pros
perous manufacturing region, the product
of which will be conveyed over such roads.
No locality, the name of which we can
now recall, offers such cheap facilities for
the erection of manufactories on a stupen
dous scale as those presented by this region
where the raw material, coal, lumber and
ores, abound in inexhaustible variety, and
where hundreds of horse-power in water is
now flowing to inexcusable waste. All this
will sooner or latter have an end. Indeed
we already see the beginning of that end,
when on the Logau's Branch and Spring
Creek will arise enterprises as gigantic as
any of those which now contribute to th e
prosperity of the people of the United
States.
A closing•paragraph on politics will not
be regarded as out of place in this letter.
The Republicans of Centre county did no
bly at the late election, and will do much
better, at that to follow in November.
Many of our sanguine friends believe the
county will give a small majority for Grant,
but this is, perhaps, calculating too liberal
ly in our own favor. Nevertheless, the
Republicans here are determined to test
their full power, and as the Democracy are
demoralized by defeat in the State, we will
not be surprised if the Republicans of Cen
tre county make. good their boast.
[COMMUNICATED.]
MESSRS. KrSSLOE & Bp.o
Will You permit me through the columns
of your valuable paper, to call the attention
of our oitizens to a subject, well worthy
the serious consideration of every one who
has at heart the welfare and prosperity of
our town. We have running through our
Borough a beautiful stream of the clearest
and purest of spring water.
A stream which is but little affected by
the change of seasons, never overflowing its
banks during a freshet, or drying up du
ring the heat of summer ; and which but
a few years ago abounded in hundreds of
thousands of trout, which to-day have al
most disitppeared.
What hits produced this great change and
what . has. it to do with the prosperity of
the town ?
I will not attempt to answer the above
queries, but merely throw out a few hints
uul siiggestions, which if it be the means
of bringing other and more able hands
to take hold of the subject and push it to
some practical result, will have accomplish
ed all I desire.
First, then I submit, that "legitimate
fishing" has not been the cause of the al
most total extinction of trout in our streams.
When we take into consideration the fact
that a single two year old trout, will yield
one thousand, one of three years, twelve
hundred, and one of six years as many as
eight thousand eggs, it will be evident that
there must be some other and more serious
agencies at work to cause such wholesale
destruction. These agencies are principal
ly, building of dams which prevent the
trout from passing up the stream to their
nr.tmal spawuing bed; the indiscriminate
and unlawful fishing out of season ; the
wholesale destruction of their eggs by do
mesticated water fowl ; the sawdust from
our mills and factorys . the drains from
our ore washing, tanneries, slaughter-hous-.
es, &c. There are no doubt many other
eauses which assist in destroying our fish,
but Met, mentioned are the chief ones, and
.$45,000
if they are remedied, our streams would
again abound in trout as of old. The
remedies to be applied we think should be
the building of "fish-ways" over every
dam, the passage of laws prohibiting under
severe penalties, the — turning into our
streams the refuse of our -mills, slaughter
houses, ore-washings, Sze., the penning-up
of our domesticated water fowls - and tlic
strict!enforeement of our -fish laws. Ther,
with a very small outlay a few thousand
trout artiticiallY.ba tclied, might be placed
in oar streams and in a few years the sup
ply would be abundant, and thus bring us
to the second part - of our query ; "What
has it to do with the prosperity of the town?'
I answer, much. With our streams abound
ing in trout; Bellefonte with her beautiful.
surroundings, and healthy atmosphere
would be the resort daring the summer
months of hundreds of lovers of "die gen
tle craft." Our hotels would be filled to
overflowing with business men, and thtir
families, from oar cities, seeking a few
weeks recreations from the trials of busi
ness, whose greenbacks would be scattered
among us and the general prosperity of the
comunity, be the consequence. Will our
citizens see to it that prompt action is taken
in this matter. Who mnong .our influen
tial men will make the first move?
