On Sunday night last, a man named Blacklog ran off from this town, "between two days." , His absence would probably not have been seriously felt had it not been for. the fact that, when he went away, he took with him, as friends and com panions, two women.? One of: these was the wife of .Mr. William : Sease," of this place, and the "other was'Sease'a sister.--They went from here to Harrisburg, where report hath it that this Log which is ap propriately known as Black was married to one of the women. . He is the indenti cal individual who distinguished himself iontie Sunday preceding New Year's by breaking into the negro Chambers' barber shop, on Clinton street, and who was so nearly extinguished there and then by a Wow upon the head from a poker in the hands of the infuriated barber. He was arrested at that time for a breach of the peace, but was subsequently released on bail. Now, when. the gentlemen who "went his bail" ; discovered that Blacklog had sloped, he forthwith telegraphed to Harrisburg and had him arrested on a bail-pjece. He was brought back on Tuesday, and is now in the county jail, where he can ruminate at leisure on the mutability of all human calculations It is averred that Blacklog has a wife residing in Somerset county; if so, the chances for an interesting case of bigamy at our approaching Court are good. A couple of days ago, a man', named Sloan had a leg broken and was other wise injured in a coal-bank in Conemaugh boro. It is not expected that he will recover. 7 On Thursday evening, a horse belong ing to Dr. Emerson, which was attached to a sleigh, became alarmed at some object, and ran off up Clinton street. In the course of his mad career, he overturned a number of young boys, one of them a son of the Doctor, who had his head somewhat cut, but not dangerously. The flying steed was ultimately brought to a stand-still in a fence corner, before any farther damage had beep inflicted. An "Injin how'.waixgld in Temper ance Hali'on Friday .evening.

Our lady readers I have long complained of the obnoxious compounds . prepared and recommended for toilet use, and have long desired to procure an article on which they could rely. We take pleasure in introducing to their attention an article which we know from personal experience to be exactly what they have so long needed "Grego rie's Enamel of America.". : It is a purely vegetable preparation, .and consequently harmless to the skin. It utterly removes freckles and moles, and by softening and cleansing the skin, conceals all marks of small-pox. To remove roughness of the face, or for chapped hands, it is without a rival. Try it, and be convinced that it is what it is represented to be. Price one dollar per bottle, or six bottles for five dollars. J. M. Thompson, at the P. O., agent for Ebensburg. Patriotic Lecture Mies Susanah Evans. We are requested to state that the renowned Cambrian orator, Miss Su sannah Evans, will deliver a patriotic lec ture in the Congregationalist Church, Ebensburg, on next Monday evening, 29th inst. Subject, "The Armless Sleeve."- Miss Evans was advertised to speak here once before, but force of circumstances caused her to break the engagement ; this time she will cerUxiidy como. Her great popularity will doubtless draw a crowded house. Married Oh the 11th "instant, in Pittsburg, by the Rev. R. R. Williams, Mr. Rowland J. Humphreys and Miss Harriet Williams, both of Ebensburg. We congratulate these our friends on the happy termination of this little affair of theirs, and bespeak for them a long life and a happy one!
