14th inst., and that we regard union and har
mony of all the different interests of the op
position essential to success, and we urge the

' Daring Robbkrt. On Monday night, the
12th inst., some scoundrel entered the Post
Office, in Lnthersburg, and carried off 1 gold
watch, 5 silver watches, 4 setts Judys' ear-bobs,
and abont oO coppers w hich were in a drawer.
The articles enumerated belonged to A. L.
.Scbmell, and, as near as can be - ascertained,
are worth about $109.00. The thief is sup
posed to be a man named Cyrus Litsfiuld or
J.itsford- He is a small man, of English or
Scoth descent, and follows painting. He has
lived in Curwensville, and has, we are inform
ed, been in several scraps in that place. Noth
ing belonging to the Post-cflice is missing.
.SrssiBLE. Ve have, practical prorf that ,
South Carolina, with all her insane devotion
to Slavery, . contains sensible and good men. j
We perceive that Col. Y. S. Dogan, of that
State, declines being considered a candidate
for the Legislature, for the reason that he can
never enter the field as a candidate for the Le
gislature so long "as the treating mode of
electioneering is allowed." The Colouel s.iys
if a candidate is elected by treating, "his elec
tion signifies only that he is a good drinker."
We commend the Colonel's example to all
candidates for office in our county that, is,
his refusal to buy support by treating.
Death from Lai dasim. Oh Sunday morn
ing, 1 1 tli inst., we learn, the only son of John
Matson, of Decatur township, aged about three
years, lost his life by drinking a quantity of
laudanum. One of the family had been using
it for the tooth-acbe and had set it down on
the window, when the little fellow unpercciv
:d got hold of the vial and drank the contents.
Medical aid was called, but to no avail, and in
abottf four hours after the occurrence the lad
breathed his last.
The Weather. We have had considerable
rain in this section within the last three or
four days, which in all probability has done
some damage to the grass crop, as a large
quantity was cut previous to the wet spell.
The Harvest. We learn that many of our
farmers have commenced cutting their wheat
crop. Although there was much Slid about
the weevil destroying the wheat, yet, there is
at least aa average crop in the county.
Religious. By divine peraitssion, the Rev.
Coilier, of the Pittsburg Conference of the
Methodist Protestant Chureh, will preach at
Palestine, Graham township, on the 21th and
Moth of July, instant. -
Wht Ladies Should Read Newspapers.
It is a great mistake in female education to
fceep a young lady's time and attention devot
ed to only the fashionable literature of the
lay. If you would qualify her for conversa
tion, you 'must give her something to talk
-tjbont give her education with the actual
t-or!d and its transpiring cveDts. Urge her
sto read newspapers and become familiar with
a!u present character - and improvement of
our race. History is of some importance;
lmt the past world is dead, and we have noth
ing to do with it. Our thoughts and our con
cerns should bo for the present world to
know what it is, and improve the condition of
it. Let Ler have" an intelligent conversation
concerning the mental, moral, political and
religions improvement of our times. Let the
gilded annals and poems on the centre table
be kept a part of the timo covered with the
weekly and daily journals. Let the whole j
laniily bjcd, women and children-read the
newspapers.
The Society of Friends have addressed a
letter to the Emperor of France, entreating
Jiim so to exercise the power entrusted to
hira, that no proceedings on the part of the
French Government may in future open the
vay for revival of the trade in human beings;
that all attempts to introduce into the colo
nies of France native of Africa, under the
name of free emigrants, may henceforth be
absolutely prohibited.

1 1 Four More Free State Mrs Murdered.
T 1 T. : .
it is strange, passing strange, that tho citizens
of Kansas have so long permitted Hamilton
and his gang of murderers to redden the soil
J of that Territory with the blood of Free State
men. The cold-blood assassinations in the vi
cinity of Fort Scott cry aloud for vengeance,
and later intelligence from Southern Kansas
is that on the night of the 11th of June, four
more Free State men were killed on the Little
Osage, by the band ' of Missouri desperadoes
under the lead of Hamilton, Titus and Brock
way. The men killed were peaceable farmers,
named Andrews, Allen, Thompson, and one,
name not learned. Montgomery had previous
ly advised them to leave, and had pointed out
their danger, but they said they did not med
dle in affrays, and the Missourians would not
molest them. Montgomery and his force start
ed in pursuit of the murderers as soon as the
news of this fresh outrage reached him, and
it is to be hoped he may come up with and ad
miniter justisce to the ruffians.

J5f"Wirhin the past week the steamer Indian
Empire has arrived at Xcw York from Gnlway,
Ireland, bringing with her the government mails.
This is the first direct communication by steam,
between America and Ireland, (ialway is two days
shorter sail than any port in England or Scotland.
As Outrage, of a very gross character was
perpetrated in Kent Co., Md., on the 21th ult.
A party of ruffians, masked and disguised,;en
tered the res:donce of Mi. James LjBowers.
a worthy farmer, who has lor some time been
known to be identified with the Anti Slavery
party of the Xorth, and dragging him out of
the house, put a rope about his neck and con
veyed him iu a carriage to a spot about half a
mile distant from his home, his agonized wife
following after them and filling the air with
her shrieks and cries. It was the intention of
the mob to hang or burn Mr. Bowers, but
some of the more moderate among them pre
vailed upon the rest to punish him otherwise
for his Abolition principles. He" was accord
ingly stripped, tarred and feathered, and - set
at liberty, with the threat of bo;r,g hung if he
did not leave the State forthwith. His crime
was being opposed to the system 'of slavery,
and subscribing to the H. 1". 7'riiae.'.-
A correspondent of the London Times, says:
"Athehs is said to be the most flea-bitten cap
ital in Europe; whoever has been at Constan
tinople will hardly bave" escaped without heavy
loss of blood; certain places south of the
Pyrenees might be named as possessing a
very numerous and vigorous breed of that
class of carnivora. Among the flea producing
cities, however, it would be unjust to refuse
Turin a distinguished place. I am informed
that it is labor lost to fight with them; there
is nothing for it but to cultivate a thick skin
and resignation. They have their vested
rights, and. will not be escluded. They pa
rade the porticos in battalions, occupy the
best places ia theaters and cafes, and are by
no means averse to-chrriago exercise. Ser
vants indulgently smile when ypu' urge efforts
(or their extermination.
The St. Paul Pioneer of the 1st instant says
that some two hundred aud fifty carts from
Pembina, laden with fur3, are encamped on
the outskirts of that city," and enough others
are expected to swell the number to six hun
dred. Altogether, they will bring furs to the
value of $50,000. These carts" are made of
the most primitive character, and are drawn
by oxen and the stunted ponies of the plains.
One can hardly realize the condition" of
things along the Mississippi. ' Mr. Fay weather
the General Agent of the Chicago and Bur
lington railroad, has stated that they carried
the passengers to Oquawka station, seven or
eight miles, in a steamboat, crossing a wlie.it
field. The wheat is covered to a depth of 8
feet with water, and the steamer makes regu
lar trips over it. ;: - "
A joint stock company has been formed in
St. Petersburgh. called 'f ho Caucasus," for
steam navigation and trade on the Caspian Sea.
It is no receive a large share of government
patronage, and it is said to be "especially fa
vored by the Emperor. The Capital of tho
company is three millions of roubles.

GREAT DISCOVERY OF 'ITIE AGE.
IMPORTANT TO TOBACCO C II EWERS.
Dr. Gustav Uuiiard Twt Meliorative. Tradie.
the Great Substitute for Tobacco. It is a well
known and incontrovci table fact that the use of
Tobacco is the promoting cause of many of the
most severe MENTAL. AND PHYSICAL disorders
to which the race of man is subject as enreful &n
alasissnd long and painful experience have clear
ly proven that it contaiasccrtain narcotic and poi
sonous properties most dangerous in their effocts,
which by entering into the blood derange the
functions and operations of the Heart, causing ma
ny to suppose that organ to be seriously diseased.
TOBACCO affects also she outire nervous systeni,
manifesting itself as all who have ever used the
noxious weed will bear testimony in Lassitade,
Nervous Irritability, Water Brash. 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 cases, and
wherever ned. Being harmless in themselves
they exert a beneficial effect npon the entire sys
tem, restoring the Taste which has become vitia
ted or destroyed by groat indulgence, complete
ly removing the irritation and accompanying tick
ling sensation of the Throat which are always
consequent upon abstaining from tho use of To
baceo, and by giving a healthy tone to the Stom
ach, invigorate the whole system.
Persons who are irretrievably undermining
their constitutions and shortening their lives
should use these Trachea immediately and throw
off the injurious and unpleasant habit of Tobacco
Chewing
- These Troches or Lozenges are put op in a con
venient and portable form at the low price of 50
cents per Box. A liberal discount to C J Trade.
