A Rich One- A few days since, a chi
rm of this pkee was accosted on the street
-with the question : "Why uo you Republi
cans refuse to take your own money ?" The
reply was. "Because a certain class called
hovr, and of the Copperhead species, had
circulated so many counterfeits, as to bring
them into dispute. " The answer being to

PtOBBKRT AND ATTEMPTED SnCIPT-
On Monday night, August 25th, the store of
Whitcomb: k Co., at Philipshurg Centre
county, was entered and goods to amount of
about $150 carried off. It seems that the
thief went to the hoarding house of the
clerk, entered the bedroom and took Tthe
keys from his clothing, and by this meaDs
gained admittance to the store. The tluef
while rummaging about the store cut himself
on a butcher knife, and bled freely, by wlich
means he was tracked from the store to ihz
boarding bouse of the clerk the thief hav
ing returned the keys to the clerk's rnvket.
Next day suspicion rested upon Jacob Lclo,
the fact that he had his hand tied up,
and upon a mnt being issued he'was ar
rested when he confessed to tbc tlife't, an
told where the goods were secreted. J us.
as the officer.Iwho had the prisoner in custo
dy, was about to start forBellefonte,hc.(tlii
thief) asked permission to go into the bsck
yard, which was granted when he took a
xaKor from his 'pocket, and cut across his
. throat, from ear to ear, but fortunately not
deep enough to cause instant death. At
lat accounts the prisoner was still lying b
very critical condition at Philipsburg.
Railroad Accidext. On Thursday f
last week, a serious accident occurred on tie
Tyrone and Clearfield railroad. As the pas
senger train from Tyrone was leaving MittV
ells station, some coal or elate on the ra3
threw the truck of the rear car from tise
track and upset the car, precipitating itcrer
an embankment eight or ten feet h'i.
Several passengers were seriously braced
&nd injured. Among the number, 5"si.
Irvin, Esq., of Curwensville, had his
der blade fractured, and was othenri-e in
jured, like ninety-nine out every luired
this accident was the result of pure canse
cess. That the track, in the riciahj sf
etation,should be covered with shvte irJ
coal, is utterly inexcusable. If greater vig
ilance is not used, it will not be,- long tmdl
we shall have to record similar accidents in
Tolving the loss of life. v j
With every desire to do justice tie
Perm'. Railroad Company, we Ipaoaoi bol
think that the manner in which ltlej ma
age this branch road is 'anything b jj,.
mendable. The locomotives and car? vt&l
on the road, are the old worn-out
cannot be any longer used on the nuij hue.
Moreover, there ought to be a line ti tele
graph put up, as no railroad can be kt or
properly worked without it The pnV
Company having got the road for izaaet
nothing, and the business on jt bt'ag as
. much as they can do, certainly her af
ford to erect a telegraph, use good trme
aid cars, and run the road as it ouri to t
pan.
Railroad Murders. The numerous
railroad muriers that are occurriu:g:alI over,
the country. iiould induce persims whose1
business requires them to travel, to call at
the office of H. "B. Swope, Esq.,, and get an
insurance airainsf accidents, bv whiciii Jn
