' v Ixdiajsa Couxty. Ono night last week, a
' man who was attacked by the night-niare, set
".the goodly people of Indiana Borough into an
'uproar, by screaming fire and niurder, after
dashing out a window in -his sleeping apart
ment. The cause of alarm was soon discov
ered and the crowd left "instauter.V. . . . Oa
the night of the 9lh some of the "colored pop-
1. illation" raised a fuss with some young men,
: in front of the Indiana House, resulting in one
f the tonner running his head agaiust a poker,
which brought him to his proper level and put
liiui on his good behavior for the time being.
On Saturday evening, the 12th, a -man
named Wegniau, of Pino township, was lodged
" in the county jail, on a charge of stealing
: wheat from James Duncan. . . . . Oue day last
.week, an Irish pedlar, named Lot M'lreny,
fell in company with several teamsters some
iine miles from town, who were coming from
-''Mahoning for goods. He contracted with
' them to bring him and some rolls of oil-cloth
- to town, and on the way a difficulty arose be
. 1 ween thcra, leading to a muss. On arriving
here, the pedlar made information againtt the
teamsters for assault and battery, upon which
they were arrested and bound over. They,
n thoir part, alleged that the- pedlar had been
actuated by malice, and instituted proceeding
against him for perjury. He was put to jail,
' where he will probably bo kept until court,
v.hen the whole al!air will come np for jr.dicisl
investiga'ion.

...working, but a ganj: of ruffians, numbering
home 20O, came from Jeanesvillc to YorkTown,
and threatened the men with death if they con
tinued working. A miscreant by the name of

the men have but little, if anything, laid up.

100,000 DOLLARS
CTcargain to ClcarEeld county, pur annum, by
manufacturing their pine timber, into Shingles, on
Hucy's Celebrated Patent SAisigle 3;ri,which
makes a beautiful shingle ont of comparatively
inferior timber, that would not make split shin
gles at all. The mode of operation is :. It saws
and jJtaies the shingle xmnolk on hotli sides at one
operation, and will turn out ten finished shingles
every minute while it is kept rnnningat its speed,
which would be six thousand per day of ten hours,
if kept running all the time ; but allowing one
half of the time for greasing and other necessary
arrangements, it will make 3,000 per day, which
is a very safe calculation. All the hands neccssa
to ran it is two ; a man to attend to the sawing and
a boy tho planing. Wo will here insert a few
Words from the Lancaster Daily Express :
'It received the first premium at tho York and
Lancaster county fairs, where the practical opera
tion of this machine produced the following pro
fitable result : from one cord of select pine slabs
procured at a saw-mill, costing ten dollars, it man
ufactured in less than one day two thousand shin
gles, sold for Sixtpex Doi.LAns per thousand." .
Ii combines all tho advantages of Wood worth's
and Xorcross' Planing Machines; besides which
it possesses one great advantage which no other
Planing Machine ever invented docs that is, it
will plane a straight, beveled or tapering pieeo of
timber, wherein its great value lies.- Although
wc might fill sheets with its praises from eastern
papers, we will only insert a small extract from
the Lancaster Inland Daily Times:
"It was invented for the purpose of making
shtuglts, slaves, heading and lath, and for sawing
and planeing straight or beveled work, flooring,
weathcrboarding, &e. Its use during the last six
months has proved it to possess a full capacity for
manufacturing all the various articles above men
tioned " Ihe same paper says: '-The flour bar
rels made from the stave3 prepared by this ma
chine, are as smoothly finished as the best quali
ty of Cedar ware." i'or further information ad

Texas Getting Anti-Slavery. The last

which by entering into the blood derange tha
functions and operations of the Heart causiug ma

"TOBACCO affects also she entire nervous system,
manifesting itself as all who have ever used tha
noxious weed will bear testiuawiy in Lassitude,
Nervous Irritability. Water Brasb. Dyspepsia, and
many other disorders of a similar character. The
Taste Restorative Troches" are designed to Coun
teract these baneful influences, and have proved
completely successful in a multitude of capes, and
wherever used. Being harmless in themcclve
they exert a beneficial effect upon tho entire sys

ly removing the irritation and accompanying tick
ling sensation of the Throat which are always
consequent upon abstaining from tho use of To
bacco, and by giving a healthy toho to tho Stom
ach, invigorate the whole system.. . i .
Persons who arc irretrievably "ndermining
their constitutions and shortening their lives,
should use these Troches Immediately and throw
off the injurious and unpleasant habit of Tobacco)
