Fki it rnosr:CTS. The prospects for a larc
yield of fruit in this region, arc fat this time
good. Tho npple trees are more thau usually
full of blossoms, and we do not think that the
recent frosts have done any injury. We anti
cipate a heavy yield'Of apples.
Ox IIasd Agaix. II. D. l'atton, of Cur
wensville, has returned from the East with a
new stock of seasonable goods, which he is
opening out at his tiew store room, and which
he offers at the lowest prices. Read hi. ad
vertisement in another column.
Quick Work. Wc have been told that Mr.
John Owens, whose house was destroyed by
fire on the 2-jth nit., immediately employed
about thirty carpenters and put' up a new
house, into which he moved last Thursday,
just ttn day after his other dwelling was burn
ed. He had a portion of the material for buil
ding previously ready.
Tue Crops. Wo made inquiry during the
past week of such persons from the country as
we happened to sec, as to the condition of tho
grain crops in this county. In some sections
the growing grain looks well and gives prom
ise of a good yield ; in others, the prospect is
rather unpromising. Upon the whole, howev
er, we are led to believe that wc may expect a
fair average yield, unless soma unforeseen
cause to prevent it should iutervene between
now and harvest.
A Koostek Eating Siiob Pkgs. A few days
since, a lad in the south part of town, dropped
a handful of shoe pegs. A shanghai rooster
that was loitering about, immediately went to
work and eat them up as greedily as if they
had been so many oats. The query is to know
whether chanticleer relished them as pegs,
calculating to "set up shop" for him
self, or w hether in his haste lie eat them in
mistako for oats. In either event, we have no
doubt that his craw was considerably astonish
ed at being converted into a receptacle of
beech wood.
New AiTtr.TistMK.TS. We direct atten
tion to tho new advertisements which appear
1 in the Journal to-day.
An experienced clerk can secure a situation
by making application at the store of .Win. Ir

John Blair, of Hoggs, ofTors a liberal reward
for a pocket book, containing $10 in money
and some notes, which he lost at Grugan's, a
few weeks since.
Wiu. Maxwell, J. Shaw nee and A. Jury pub

quantity of shingles found Hunting in the river.
The executors of Wm. Cleaver, dee'd, pub
lish a notice for settlement.
Dr. II. Lorain requests those owing him to
settle before the 1st July.
Several other advertisements also appear.

Kansas. The Lccomptoti correspondent of
tho St, Louis Democrat says the apportionment
disfranchises one half of Kansas. Only twenty
out of forty counties arc represented. In sonic
counties where no census was taken the repre
sentation is allowed on the list of voters on tho
old election books. Tho other counties ap-i-Jied
to Secretary Stanton for election pre
cincts, and received the ansAcr that ho could
lo nothing, there being no law to supply tho
omission. A card has been published, signed
by sixty-two prominent persons, urging tho
Legislature to assemble on tho 9th of June to
complete the Statu organization.
A Great Paw. A siiort distance aboVo
Fredericksburg, Va., a strong dam has been
erected across tho Rappahannock Tiver, 572
feet between the abutments, and IS feet high.
The water is conveyed into the town by a canal
one and three-fourths of a mile long, giving
47 feet fall. This power is intended for man
ufacturing purposes. Ttio City Council have
also passed an ordinance to exempt from tax
ation all manufacturing establishments for ten
jcars after their erection.
Honorably Discharged. Ex-Gov. Bobb,
jf Ohio, who recently fired upon a party of
scrcnaders, at bis residence in Winnebago
county, Illinois, and killed one of them and
wounded others, has been honorably dis
charged, after a full investigation cf the mat
ter. The serenadcrs, it appears, were a gang
of Insolent rowdies, who surrounded the house
of the ex-Governor, and insulted his family,
until he was compelled to fire uron them, af
ter begging and coaxing them to leave.
The Uxios Safe. At a gathering of tho
railroad excursionists at Cincinnati on Wed
nesday, Tom Marshall, of Kentucky, in one of
his characteristic speeches, ridiculed Benton's
fears about tho dissolution of the ITnion, and
said he had been defeated for Congress bim--seir,
and it hid not dissolved the Union. It
was a great blunder on the part of the people,
1'Ut still he thought the country got along a
bout as well as if he had been elected-

EPIt is stated that the Canal Commission

K7A New York editor thinks, from the
manner stiirts arc made in that city, there ought
to bo an "inspector of sewers." The editor
went to tho expense of a new shirt, the other

shortest stitches.
C7" What next ? The Jewish Clirouicle men
tions that a curious branch of business has
been cstablised at Lyons. It appears that an
association of howlers has been formed, which
engages to supply to funerals a number of pro
fessional weepers, at the charge of five francs
each. They have adopted a peculiar costume,
and follow tho hearse weeping and sobbing.
07" We must take San Domingo, sure ! An
American captain1, who ran down a vessel of
that Island, has been mulct in damages there
for, by tho tribunals of the country; and, re
fusing to appeal to a higher court, ho aban
dons his schooner, "and 'makes a government

JC7There is no accounting for taste. We
onco know a, little boy who could not rest if
his hands or clothes were soiled in the least,
whilst another in tho same place, until half
grown, seemed to have no higher ambition, or
more exquisite enjoyment, than digging holes
in the ground large enough to admit his head
and shoulders, where he would lie for hours,
together, "and men arc bit children of a lar

K7"Thc latest advices from Europe statu
that the growing grain in Great Britain and on
the Continent, presents a highly promising
appearance.
(IPThe late Legislature of Nebraska re
pealed the entire criminal code of that ter

thai which is dispensed by Judge Lynch.
GPThe rage for elopement has become so
strong in the West that an Irishman in the

rT7"There were, it is stated, on tho first day
of June, masses of frezeu spray and snow, fifty
feet in solid thickness, under the American
side of the Falls of Niagara. A heavy rock
thrown upon it makes no moro impression
than upon hard ice.
tiyTho number of emigrants arriving at
New York last week was 12,000. For the
month of May the number is 27,000, and firthe
year 94,000, against 37,000, to same date last
year. Tho emigration from Europe fell off
very heavily in 185-3 and 185G, but, from pres
ent appearances, will this year regain its for
mer activity. "
BThe Chicago Journal, after a careful re
view of the statements from the grain growing
regions of Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin,
concludes that t!icrc is promise of a more a
bundant harvest this year than ever before.
Even in regions where tho winter was sup
posed to have done its worst, tho apparently
dead wheat is in many instances reviving,
while the greater breadths sown, w ill so near
ly compensate for the injury done, as to give
in the aggregate, a crop quite as largo as In
tho same territory last year.
Tiik comet has taken the back track. Mr.
Tuttle writes to the Newburyport Herald that
"it has already passed its perihelion, and its
nearest approximation to the earth, and is now
receding from us at a rapid rate, in its flight
through space, in its eccentric orbit ; and,
consequently, wo need no longer be under
fears of its dashing against the earth. Its
nearest approach to the earth w as on the 8th
of May, when it was twenty millions of miles
distant from us! Besides, this new comet,
having always returned to this part of its orbit
once in ten years, (tho time of its ascertained
periodic revolution,) without impinging a
gainst us, there was no more valid reason for
fearing a collision at this time than at any
other period since tho whole system of" plane
tary orbs was launched into space, each body
to move in harmony with every other, accord
ing to.wisc, established an'd unchanging laws."
Remarkable Circumstance. A circum
stance of a somewhat remarkable character re
cently occurred in one of the towns f one of
the midland counties of England. A clergy
man died, aud his wife and daughters, on the
third day after his decease, recollecting that
no likeness remained, it was agreed, ere the
grave closed over him, that the body should bo
unshrouded, and a portrait taken. A young
lady of some professional celebrity was enga
ged for the task. She, with the assistance of
an attendant, took oil" the shroud and placed
the body in tho requisite posture ; but other
duties requiring tho artist's attention, the
sketch was deferred till noon. About twelve
o'clock, at the foot of tho bed, the lady com
menced, and went through with an hour's
work on this image of death. At this stage of
the proceedings, by some unaccountable mo
tion, the head of the death-like figuro full on
tho side. Nothing daunted, the artist careful
ly took the head to replace it, when lo ! the
eyes opened, and staring her full in tho face,
"the dead" inquired, "Who arc you 7" The
"young professional," without trepidation,
took tlio bandage from his head, and rubbed
bis neck. Ho immediately saw the shroud,
and laughed immoderately. The artist quiet
ly called tho family : their joy may bo imagin
ed, but cannot bo described. That evening,
he who had been bemoaned by mother aud
daughters with agouized tears, gladdened their
hearts by taking bis accustomed placo at the
tea-table, and at this moment is making. an ex
cursion in North Whales. Bedford England)

Bronchial affections. Concha, Colds, Pleurisy, Bron

and lungs, except Consumption. Thin invaluable
remedy is no quack nostrum, but is prepared from
tho recipe of a regular physician, who during a
practiee of twenty-fivo yearn, used it with unpar
alleled success. It is a combination of expecto
rant remedies, pimple in their character and used
by crery educated physician. It is easily taken,
produces no nausea or other disagreeable effects,
and gives almost immediute relief. In this ever
changing climato, where coughs and cold so fre
quently end in consumption and death, no family
should be without this certain emu.
It would be easy to follow in the wake of the ren

got up for the occasion, of miraculous cures, but no
such adventitious aid is necessary in introducing
this preparation to the public. Its reaj value, and
never failing success, in accoroplishiifg all promis
