executioner and the chaplain. and •saw
standing before him the fatal instrument, Ids
strong. h forsook him and lie sank Aown.
It was this passage of eighty feet that was
terrible for the criminal, for he knew that
the moment he ascended the step before
him his head would fall.

falls upon it, instead of being; obliged to

rolled off on .to &wide at the side,

INCENDIARIES AT WORK AGAIN
About 10 o'clock on Friday night last, 'a fire
occurred on the premises of Mr. hilt Houck,
onltimoto' street, which cOnsunled his
liege framo'Barn. Two valuable' horses per
ished in the flames—the fire haviiicaovan
-141 so , far that it was impossible to save them,
By the exertions of several citiiens a Cow and
Calf were reictied from the burning building.
The flames spread rapidly through the build
ing, aad.it waa soon totally destroyed ; togeth
eV with seven or eight tons of Hay—which had
leen placed there a short time before; and a
larie quantity of Cornfodder, in a shed ''ad
joining the . main building. We understand
that thert were about 160 bushels of Oats, and
a large amount of Grain of various kinds in
the barn at the time r mhich was entirely
destroyed. _
The intense heat soon communicated the
flames to the adjoining stables; but by this
time a largo number of the citizens had ar
rived—and by their united and energetic of
forts the fire was prevented from spreading,
and the adjoining buildings preserved without
serious damage. The fire was undoubtedly
the work of design.
Mr. Hovel was in the vicinity of the Barn a
abort One before--he supposed everything to
secure;be for no one of the family had been
itear the ball*, either with candle or lantern—
he was about retiring to rest, when ho was
suddenly startled by the alarm of "Fire'-'—on
going to the door discovered his own barn to
kai the cause of the alarm. r The loss is esti
. .
matod at $14:10e. •It was insured to the
#mcontmrs:loo-iirther-Adams-Qounty-hfutnal
Insurance Company.
.The .Town Council On Satnrday last, offered'
a Reward of $5 . 00 for such information as will
)end to the detection and conviction of the
potion or perseee who fired the barn—Mr
Hocus has added $lOO. We know this step
on the part of the Council, will meet the ap
.pruhationvf the honest and quiet 'portion of

, means employed
by the authorities will be Remised in bring•

BOROUGH. ELECTION.—We annex the
vote in the Borough on Friday last, by which
it will he seen that the Buchananites were

Toliebeat at all, under such eircumsurces,

PAINFUL ACCIDENT.--A few days ego,
as Mr. Witazzit Scorr, risiding near Cash
town, was engaged
some
wood in the
mountain, at distance from his house,
he met with a very severe and painful acci
dent.' - It appears that a tree he waa felling
haVing lodged on a neighboring sapling, he
attempted the dangerous undertaking of bring
ing it down by chopping off the sapling on
which it hung. He had scarcely given halt a
dozen strokes, when it broke, or rather split
off, striking him on the right ankle, crushing
and hrnising his leg and foot in a dreadful
manner. As the thither was frozen at the
lime, and consequently very brittle, the whole
was but the work of an instant, or, to use his
own expression, "as quick as a *hot." The
friend who communicates these facts says
that notwithstanding_the . able surgical treat
ment of Dr. J. Carpenter, his recovery is con
sidered doubtful.-=Compiler.

Se-A correspondent sends us a copy of the
"Gennessee Farmer," with a request that we re'
publish from it a very severe article, by the
editor, on Prof. Comstock's alledged discovery
of a new lave ;in Agriculture, termed "Terra
Cuiturer The article is too lengthy for our
columns ; we ma) hereafter copy a few ex
tracts. The edttof of the Farmer professes to
have attended dbe of Prof. Comstock's lectures
—llenoilnees the alledged discovery as a hum.
bug, and the exaction ofa fee for imparting the
Imre, as an imposition upon Farmers. The
grand secret is alledged to be the simple fact
that in transplanting trees, &c., the tree should
be reset the same depth as itoriginally stood—
not deeper than what is knows as the editor—
the point where tbe upper roots unite with the
trunk of the tree. The same holds good in
vegetable products generally. •
FIRST OF APRIL—As we have some
heavy bills for Paper, Type, &c., felling due
about the first of April, and which must be
met, we have to ask of our friends that they
plovide for us the means of doing so. We
trust this hint will be responded. to promptly
and liberally, and that we may have the pleas
ure of acknowledging the gratifying fact that
ova patrons arc not disposed. to "forget , the .
Printer.", Those.friends who belie viduntarily
called on ps during the last few week, and
paid up, have our cordial thanks.

rapidly progressing toward completion. By
a resolution of the Board of Directors, a Mort

in a few days be executed to GEOVOE SWOPE,

The Bonds will be issued in sums of $lOO

with coupons attached, payable semiannually.
They certainly will form a very safe and des'.

HAIR
IS, no doubt, the most wonderful discover
of this age of progress, for it will restore
permanently, gray hair to its original color,
cover the head of the bald with a most luzur
lent growth, remove it once all dandruff and
itching, cure all scrofula, and other cutaneous
eruptions, such as scald head; etc. It'will
cure, as if by magic, nervous or periodical
headache ; make the hair soft, glossy and
wavy, and preserve the color perfectly, and the
hair from falling, to extreme old age.
The following is from a distinguished mem
ber of the medical profession:
