- SQ For the last four weeks the weather
has been a source of complaint among the
farmers, being both cold and dry. The
prospects . for good crops this season a re
blasted.
t&' Our readers will please bear with us
this week for infringing so much upon their
space, on our first pagewith the balance of
the Centralia Borough Ordinances, which
were commencea in our last week s paper

ceived a letter from a friend in Indiana, da
ted the 12th insL , which says : "The wheat
crop is almost an entire failure in Indiana
this year. It all froze out . in the winter.
Most of the -farmers have plowed up the
ground sowed with wheat and put it in with
corn.
. V e are informed that two brick
yards, have been prepared in the vicinity of
Millville- and will soon be m operation. We
arc pleased to see this enterprise manifested
by the citizens of our neighboring village,
and hope that tho.-e who have commenced
the work may be well rewarded.
On Friday night last, a very disgrace
ful scene occurred in Iron Street, caused no
doubt by intoxication. Jacob Foxand others
became boisterous and abusive and finally en
gaged in fighting with knives and stones,
which ended in Fox's being knocked sense
less. At last accounts he was expected to
recover. : ' ' " "
... iSTCoL, Wellington II. Ent and Col.

will take place in Independence Hall, Phil

at this place, design enlarging their building
eixty feet, and putting another story on the
top. , The work will shortly be commenced.
This will add much to the appearance of
the House, besides be an improvement much
needed and greatly increase the means of ac
commodation to guests The present pro
prietor, Mr. Mauger, is keeping a good
house. - "
IQ In answer to the many inquiries rel
ative to fishing with nets in Big Fishing
creek and its tributaries, we would state that
we passed an Act through the House last
winter, near the close of the session, pro
hibiting the fishing with all "kinds of nets in
said stream, but on account of its lateness,
and the rush of bill in the Senate, it wa3
not reached, consequently did not become a
law.
Never within our recollection has
there been so little uniformity in articles of
ladies dress. A lady can don a narrow or a
wide brimmed Tiat' a bonnet, shawl, coat,
cape or dres3, of almost anj' shape, cut or
figure, and it will be considered as one of the
different stylet, and not commented upon for
not following the one prevailing fashion.
Certainly the ladies have a fine opportunity
to please themselves in articles of drtsss.
57" During a late tour through thu coun
try, we observed that the fruit trees oa every
farm were heavily burdened with caterpil
lars, and we would, suggest that their imme
diate destruction demands the direct atten
tion of every man who owns a fruit tree.
"With a little attention now they can easily
'be found und destroyed, and we beg of every
possessor tf & fruit tree to wage a war of
' extermination pon the pests without delay.
tZJ As usual, the Abolition party con
trolled the election of officers at the Agri
cultural meeting held at this place last Sat
urday In selecting ofScers for the ensuing
year they managed to find one Democrat in
the county whom they biw fit to place on
the Executive Committee ; but in fixing up
the Vice Presidents, four ia number, they
did not take a single Democrat; and even
'-efu5eI to reelect L. B. Rupert, who had

Ottr readers can learn the prices of coun
try produce by looking over the markets in
another column. We correct them weekly
and take pains to have them reliable.
The rush still continues at Millers'
Store. This old and well known establish
ment has always had a vast amount of pa
tronage, and now, more than ever, is prepared
to accommodate all with every article of
merchandize. Besides, the clerks, "Charlie' '
and "Ike," are loved by the young ladies,
and well liked by every body else. Who
wouldn't go there to trade.
25"" On last Saturday afternoon we had
the pleasure of witnessing a match of
the Bloomsburg Base Ball Club. The club
is composed of some of our most athletic
young men, who go earnestly into the con
test for victory. The only ill-features of the
came, wiiicn we noticed, were tnese: one
man went home with his lower garments
badly torn and another with his eye badly.
blackened, the Iasacaused by an accidental
stroke of the ball.
Yesterday morning we were surprised to
see the people rushing up street in unaccus
tomed haste and earnestness ; and upon in-
quiry as to t be cause, we were pleased to
. a w
learn that a fresh supply of goods and gro
ceries at A. llartman s store was attracting
the people and tempting them to buy. The
inhabitants of the town know this fact, and
the people from the country are invited to
call and accommodate themselves with choice
goods and large bargains.
BSy We advise the peace officers of this
town to be a little more strict in the perform
ance of their duties and save their fines. It
is rumored among decent people that we
have, of late, land too much profanity, loud
quarreling, black-guarding, and causeless
fighting, on our streets to be longer tolerated.
It is a disgrace that all this should be done
under the very eyes of the officers of the
law. Let it be remembered that the Dis-
unioni.sts elect the peace officers of this town.
Creditable, isn't it
8. Dan Rice's great show the wonder
of the World onsiting of a circus troupe,

Tuesday, the 29th inst They will exnibit

ford all, who have an extra half dollar to
give to the cay showman, a fair chance to

ered by all to be the largest and best enter

Dan will be well patronized. See his ad
vertisement.
JKsr ine Jit-pubiican toid its readers a
little more than the truth when it said "Dan
Rice's Circus will exhibit at Berwick, on
Wednesday, May 30th." Now it was posi
tively known by many, and should have been
known by the editor of the Republican, that
Dan Rice's Circus will notexhibitatBerwick,
and in justice to his readers and to Dan,
he should make the proper correct! on. The
peopie oi uus counry wui nor see luce s
show at Berwick. The editor of the Repub
lican has become so addicted to filling his
journal with imaginary articles of his own
manufacture, that he don't know where to
stop. Try again. You over-shot the mark
that time, Doctor.
B3- Hon. Levi L. Tate and R II. Little,
Fq., with their wives and little son, started
yesterday morning on a fihing excursion to
the head-waters of Big Fishinjrcreek. The
uncommonly cold weather at this time may
render their journey less cheerful than usual,
but as they expect to be gone several days
we hope they will be favored with some
warm and pleasant weather, and about eight
peck3 of fish, ere they return. "We don't
want any body to envy our situation, as Mr.
Tate and Mr. Little are our near neighbors
and they both know very well that we like
fresh fish. Our pans and our thanks are
ready for the scaly animals, but we won't let
any body know how bad we want them. No
sir'ee. .
The Senior editor of this paper offers for
sale an "order" given by Grovesteen & Co.,
of New York, to the amount of ONE hun
dred dollars, to be applied as part pay
ment on one of their three hundred dollar
Iiano Fortes, which we will dispose of
upon the most reasonable conditions. This
firm has the reputation of making the best
instruments in this country. Their instru
ments received premiums at the World's
Fair held in England, the United States
Fair at Chicago, and the Great Exhibition
in New York, a few years since. They sell
at prices ranging from $300 to $500. Any
person wishing to purchase a first-class Pi
ano, the most improved and beautiful, will
do well to purchase our "order" on Grove

Woman Shot. On last Saturday a trag
edy was enacted in Frederick county, Md.,
across the Tountain, ia lie neighborhood of
Bolivar, the particulars of which, as near as
we could get them, are these :
Daniel Shoemaker, who is a married man
with a family, has been in the habit of ma
king private visits at th.3 house of a widow
lady named Mrs. Schilduknecht, for the pur
pose of meeting her daughter. On the
night in question, Shoemaker had made an
appointment to meet the girl at the usual
trysting place, and after dark concealed him
self in the yard, near the house, to await
her arrival. In the meantime the mother
had discovered the illicit intercours3 held be
tween them, and that they were to meet that
night. She arrayed herself in the clothing
of her daughter, and at the appointed time
went out to meet him. Not suspecting any
deception, Shoemaker came from his con
cealment, and met the mother of his victim
instead of the young girl. Reproaches were
hurled at the vile seducer of her daughter's
reputation which so exasperated him, that
he drew a revolver, and fired three shots at
her, one of which took effect inflicting a se
rious, if not fatal wound. The seducer and
would be murderer fled immediately, but
has since been arrested ttnd confined in the
Frederick County prison. Odd Fellow.
Bold Robbery. On Thursday night, as
Mr. John Lydon, of Wilkesbarre, was pass
ing along Thompson street, near German-
town avenue, on his way from the North
Pennsylvania Railroad Depot, he was way
laid by three men, one of whom held his
hands behind his back while another placed
a handkerchief over his mouth by which he
was prevented from giving the alarm. The
third party then robbed him of his wallet
containing upwards of eleven hundred dol
lars. The robbers after committing the act
made their escape. Age.
