Arthur's Magazine has paid es a visit for
August with contents of more than usual
interest This is a most excellent Magazine,
never failing to treat its readers to some
thing rich, racy and interesting. The em
bellishments found in this work are ot a
superior character, second to none publish'
ed in the more costly magazines. Terms
yet remain 82,00 a year in adrauce. Four
copies for one jaar $5,00.
The wheat crop throughout the country
has been a complete failure. We have ac--rjjjintsof
the wheat crop having fell consid-
eraOIV snozi in in tvesieru milium, ouuuiu
. . wwr . . . . i 1
the summer crops yet prove a failure, we
may Unes some trying times see- grain
advance to a price beyond the reach of the
poor man. It. has almot come to that now;
when you cannot get wheat for two dollars
and fifty cents per bushel. No quantity of it
cao be had tor this price, and we may ex
pect to pj fiue dollats a bushel beiore next
year thia time.
We were given a lew heads of wheat
not long since, by Mr. A. J. ALBEHTsoM,oue
.nlJim warthf and industrious farmers .of
Greenwool lewuship, which might be call
ed extraoHiomry wheat. We shelled two
crams and tne other ne Hunzted and
t; and about as plump as you general-
lad the wheat this seasoi. We believe
( calls it the white blue stem wheat an
Article that was brought Irom the wen, and
a little superior to any heretofore raised ia
this section. it -is, unquestionably, the
wheat to raise.
Another Wreck. Oh Saturday last, an
axle of one of the cars of a loaded coal
train, of the L & B. Railroad, broke when
about half a mile above town, making a
com pi a is) wreck of eight cars, and precipi
tating several of them in the canal. The
water was withdrawn from the level, in the
evening, in order to remove the coal. This
fvtv2Jhird or fourth wreck, within our im
rajj!5igbborhood, ifi aa many weeks,
n ,-o ot toem are known to nave oc
curred through aheer carelessness. Fortu
nately no one has beenhurt. Berwick Ca

Coal- It ia rumored that tba coal speoo
lator have determined opon a still further
advance in the price of coal at the com
mencements of next month. We have rea
son to believe the report well foanded, and
advise consumers to lav in their winter
lock of coal atone. Of course those who
bare the pecuniary means will do so, while
Ike poor, who are obliged to purchase in
mall quantities, will have to pay the in
increased rates. With fuel, food and clo
thing constantly going op in price,tha poor
er classes are likely to have a hard lime of
it. How they will manage to get throogh
the coming winter. God only knows. Toe
people are now realizing the "good times"
promised them by the abolition party
We wouldask those who are owing as for
one year's subscription or more to the Star
or the NaRTa to corn lorward and pay os,
aa we are in need of our money. It costs
os twice as much to publish oar paper now-a-days
as it did three years ago, while we
were living under good old Democratic
role. Paper that we coold then boy for 8
and 9 cavper pound, we are now paying at
the rate of 25 eta for ; and getting but two
dollars for oar paper, the same that we re
cejved ia good times. Our patrons will
have to pay oa promptly or else we will be
obliged to have more for oar paper. We
cannot stand it, at two dollars . per year,
ad pay when they get ready, as many of
then, are doing. The Lincoln prices are
too high , and there is no prospect of thorn
getting any lower nntil we turn Old Abe
and party out of power. It is not alone
with our branch of business that the people
have room to find fault, but it is so ia every
branch of industrial pursuit. The whole
co J n try has been grossly belied and bnca
bagged by this Lincoln party ; led into all
this difficulty, which the Democracy warn
ed the people of lime and again previous to
TJncoIu's election. Yon were told that
"nobody was hurt," that there would be no
war, and that the South would not fight,

The citizens of Bloom township held a
meeting ia the Grand Jury Room of the
Court House, one evening last week, and
as near as we can learn, resolved to lay a
tax opon he township to raise money to
pay volunteers for the purpose of filling the
quota for this township in the late (500,000
call. In case the Commissioners would
not take- the matter in hand and levy a tax
oppn iha whole county, it was proposed
the School Directors of this township pro
ceed to levy a tax. It was believe 1 that
negroes cocld be procured by paying a
small bonnty. A Commissioner was nam
ed, who, it was proposed, should be sent
into any of the seceded Statea to procure
the blacks. We were not present at this
meeting, and are on-able at present to state
what progress has been made in the mat
te r. The thing roust be getting at a lew
ebb if patriotism has so far oozed out of our
Abolition neighbors as to rely upoc negroes
to fight their battles. They declare they
will not go themselves .but they will pay
blacks to go if they caa et them. Let
the draft come, like Thomas Dunn, we are
ready for it J
Tub Election is over, but the returns not
yet brought in. The Amendments carried
in Bloom township by a small majority
133. - The vote cast was 359. Two hun
dred and forty -six for and one hnndred and
thirteen against. The whole Democratic
rote was not out. At the last Governor's
election 479 votes were polled, one hun
dred and twenty over the vote at this elec
tion. The Democratic vote was 196 at the
last and at this election 113 a difference of
80 votes. The majority in the county
against first amendment will be pretty large.
There was not the effort made on the part
of the Democrats at our polls to get out the
vote that was made by the opposition.
Certain ones of our iron masters were on
the ground as usual, with their hands full
of tickets, dealing ihem out to their hire
lings, and observing strictly that they were
vote t . This looks much like a free ballot,
when the employers draw this kind of a
lash over their right cf suffrage This is as
bad as military discipline obey your mai
lers or be punished discharged branded
as a "Copperhead !"

FRENCH BREAKFAST AND DINNER
OWING to the very high pr-ice of Coffee,
and the great difficulty in-procuring a good,
uniform and reliable article our customers
have often expressed a wish that they
coold be supplied lrom first hands. It was
the inteution of .
Tbe Great American Tea Company,
to do a strictly Tea business, but as we
have had some customers living at a dis
tance that have relied opon us to supply
them exclusively with Tea and Coffee, it
being inconvenient from them to come to
New York, The Great Tea Coffee Erapo
rium of Ibis country and as our Tea Tas
ter was possessed of information relating
to a Coffee that coold be furnished at a
moderate price, and give universal aiis
faction, and at the same time afford the
retailer a handsome profit we have been
compelled to supplv those parties. THIS
COFFEE HAS BECOME SO POPULAR
with our customers and their sales have
increased to such sn extent that we have
been compelled o make large additions to
our macbinerj, which will enable as to
supply a few more customers with it. We
will therefore send it to those who may or-
"h is fast SUPERSEDING ALL OTHER
COFFEES. This coffee has been used tor
more than a century in Pane, and since
its introduction into this country, it has
been in nee by oome of the leadingFrer.cn
Restaurants here. The Parisians are said
to be the best judges of coffee; and tbe
great favor in which it is held by them is
the beet recommendation that can be pro
duced for its fine flavor and healthy effects
upon the human system.
We put up but one grade of this coffee,
and that is of a quality that our customers
have found from experience will give per
fect satisfaction and meet all the demands
ot their trade. It is the lowest price that
we can commend.
We do all our business on the most ex
tensive scale, buy by the cargo and sell at
only two cents per pound profit.
We put op this coffee in barrels only, of
,125 pounds each. Thia method of putting
it up saves from 2 to 5 cents per pound to
the customer, and by its being in a large
quantity it retains its fine flavor much
longer in this torm than in any other. We
send with each barrel Show-Canls, Circu
lars and Posters, to assist the dealer to in
troduce it to his customers. . We hope oar
customers will take pains to have them
well posted tip and distributed, as it will
be to their advantage to do so.
This coffee we warrant to give perfect
satisfactfou, and if it does not please, the
purchaser has the privilege of returning
the whole or any part of it within 60 days,
and having his money refunded together
with all the expenses of trauiportatiou both
wave.
We issue a Price Circular of our Teas
and Coffees, which we are glad to send
free to all who wish it. Consumer of col
fee should enquire for the French Breaklat-t
and Dinner Coffee ami be sure that it was
purchased of ihe GREAT AMERICAN
TEA COMPANY. Importers and Jobbers,

What Everybody Know 8, viz:
That iron well galvanized will not rust.
That a simple machine is better than a
complicated one. That a Wringer should
be sell-adjusting, durable, and efficient.
That Thumb screws and Fastenings cause
delay and trouble to regulate and keep in
order. That wood soaked in hot water
will swell, shrink and split. That wood
bearings for tbe shaft to run in will wear
out. Thai the Putnam Wriuger, with or
without cog wheels,wil! not teartbe clothes.
That cog-wheel regulators are not essen
tial. Thai the Putnam Wringer has all the
advantages, and not one of the disadvan
tages above named. That all who have
tested it, pronounce it the bst Wringer
ever made. That it will wring a THREAD
or a BED-QUILT without alteratioc.
We might fill the paper with testimoni
als, but insert only a few to convince the
skeptical, if such there be; and we say to
all, test Putnam's Wiinger. Test it thor
oughly with any and all others, and if not
entirely satisfactory, return it.

Gentlemen 1 know from practical
experience that iron well galvanized with

PROSPECTUS OF THE GREAT NAT

Political and Military) of the SOUTHERN
REBELLION, Comprehending, also, all
important State Papers f Confederate and
Federal.) all ordinances of Secession,
Proceedings of Congress (Rebel and Fed
eral,) Remarkable speeches &c, together
with official Reports of Commanders, Army
and Navy Statistics, .Maps, &c, BY
CRVILLE J. VICTOR, to be completed in
3 Volumes, Super Royal Octavo. Beauti
fully Illustrated with Steel Engraving,
Maps. &c, Prepared expressly for this
work, by John Rogers, and other first-class
artists.
VOLUMES I AND II NOW READY.
This truly National Work characterized
by a leading Journal as the "Paragon of
Histories," has now taken its place in lit
erature as the . History par excellence, of
the Great Rebellion. It has received (as
will be seen by reference to tbe letters'and
notices subjoined) the endorsement of the
leadingtnen and the leading journals of
the country. It is commended by those
mot qualified to judge, as such a Record
of the Rise, Progress and Retuhs of the
War for the Union as every Intelligent
citizen should poses.
As title indicates, its covers the ground
of the, Rebellion, as well in its Political
and Social as in it Military aspects. It
deals in chronologic order, with the open
and tbe secret movements for Secession in
the several Slates ; it comprehends the
proceedings of the proceeds ol the Mont
gomery Convention and of the Confederate
State's Congress ; all proceedings in the
Federal Congress relating to the questions
ol Secession and Rebellion, giving lull re
ports of the great Debates, Resolutions,
Reports &c , all the Messages, Proclama
tions, &p. of the President ; thus proving a
Complete compendium of the political
phases of the attempted revolution.
As a recoid of the slnpendious Military
and Naval Feature of the Rebellion, it
will be all that could be desired full, au
thentic and graphic leaving nothing un
said which is necessary to render it the
best and most satisfactory History of tbe
War for the Union which will be presented
for the patronage of the American People.
Most of two volumes will be devoted to the
Operations of the army and Navy. As
each volume contains more letter press
than eny two volumes of other professed
"Histories" now offered to the public. It
will be precbived that this Great Work on
thecore of fulness and coraplethess will
challenge all comparison.
The Entire History will be comprised in
three Super Royal ociavo volumes, ofabout
6000 pages each beautifully printed, in
double columns, from specially prepared
type. The ainocnt of matter in each vol
ume is equivalent to the contents of six
ordinary dollar books. Thus in three vol
umes the author will have ample space to
consider every event fully and satisfac
torily, should the war drag its slow length
along tbrougn the year.
The woik can only be had of the can
vasser. It is not sold by "the trade." All
who wish to become possessed of it should
avaif themselves of the First proposition of
the agent.
Each volume is guaranteed to be equal,
in all respects to the specimen copy ex
hibited by the agent.
