RATHER HlGH.— Butter,old enough to vote,
nnd selling for eighteen cents per pound in
this market.
THE County Superintendent is now ma
king'a tour over the County, holding teach
ers' examinations. See appointments in
another column.
THE REAL ESTATE ol Henry Hoffman, late
of Roaringcreek township, Columbia coun
ty, deceased, is offered for sale. Advertise
ment in another column.
THE citizens of this place are showing
considerable enterprise in the way of paving
their side-walks with flag-stone, which
makes a very handsome and durable walk.
Poor. JAB. W. LUSK, the most popular and
successful teacher of Speuceriati Penman
ship in the Union, is connected with the
Iron City Commercial College, of Pittsburg,
I'a —-Pittsburg Post.
WE would call attention to the advertise
ment of HENHV ZUFPINGER'S clock and watch
establishment in another column. Mr. Z.
is a good practical workman—we know of
no better in this section.
IN another column of to-day's STAR will
be seen advertised, by Sheriff sale, rather
an unusual amount of real estate for this
county, which will be disposed of on Mon
day of Court week.
THE Court advertisements—Proclamation
and List of Jurors—for December Term are
published in this week's paper. The Reg
ister's notices and List of causes will appear
in our next.
BUCKWHEAT FLOUR is selling in this Mar
ket at $2.50 per hundred weight, and a tol
erably good article. The sack received from
a patron ol oors a few days ago is of an ex
cellent quality.
WE notice in our exchanges that the of
fice of the Newport (Ky.) Free South Paper,
of Republican proclivities, was mobbed on !
the 29th ult, anil the forms of type scailered
in the street. The editor was among the
missing about that lime.
GRAIN is down to a reasonable figure, as
will be seen by the Market Prices in our
paper, and a very small quantity is being
offered. The grain growers are holding ic
back for larger prices. The corn crop in
this section is not as good as was anticipa
ted by some.
JOSEPH HCCKKLL, the ambrotypist, adver
tises his business in another column of to
day's paper. He is prepared to lake pic
tures in the latest and most improved style
ol the art, using nothing but good material,
cheaper than can be taken any place else in
this section. See advertisement.
HOLLOW EVE.— On last Monday evening
"the boys" in our end of town were busily
exercising their sirength upon the doors of
the different dwellings with cabbage stumps.
Scatce a door but what received a shock
from these mischievous boys. Wonder if
their parents "'knew they were out?"
THE REAL ESTATE of Peter Lutz, late of
Benton township, Columbia county, dee'd,
is advertised in to day's paper, to be sold
on the 26th day of November inst. It is
said to be a valuable piece of land, contain
ing seventy-one acres, pretty much all im
proved. William Lutz is Executor of the
estate and is determined to sell.
WE see it stated in the Hollidaysburgh
Standard ot last week, that four men of
Blair County were out on a hunting expe
dition and killed seventy two black and gray
squirrels in one day. In our opinion Blair co.
is not as good as Columbia county for hunt
ing game, as several of our sportsmen were
out the other day and returned fully con
vinced that hunting in this county was nev
er known to have been better than it is at
this season of the year, lor they hunted all
day without finding any game.
WE have seen it very appropriately re
marked that, "the course of true love never
runs smoothly," bnt whether 'true love' was
an active agent in the transactions of a cer
tain individual, who was married a short
time ago to a sprightly young lass up conn
try, and who has sir.ee been committed to
: The Gounty Boarding House upon an indict
ment for helping himself to a lady's shawl,
ffeithout asking permission of the owner,
are unable to answer. He now has the
oxtreme pleasure of spending his honey
moon at the Capitol ol this County and at
<l* public's expense.
REMEAFRTB THE POOR.— A hard winter is
again before us. Let those who have the
comforts of life share a small portion there
of with tSote who are less favored. O, cheer
the poor by rendering timely
aid. You wilt admit that this is a cold,
hard world at best. The pleasures of the
rich are even limited indeed. The various
troubles they over-balance all
Their pleasuresAfcsAdd poverty and want to
These troubles, and'you will, in some meas

" Westward, the course ot Empire takes Its Way!"
This work, is the only.one in Book form,
which for several years has emanated from
the pen of the gifted author, who treads now
alone the path once trodden b) our own
Cooper. It will contain graphic pictures of
the conflicts of the hardy Pioneer, whose

narratives of the daring deeds, the heart
trials, (he heroic devotion and self denial of
noble women, the mothers of the West !
Beneath the over-arching forests, hand to
hand, and fool to loot, the intrepid adven
turer has encountered in deadly combat the
ruffian desperadoes who made their haunts

which are pictured with all the skill an

Borders, has always the advantage of an
accuracy which is the resultof an intimate,
