THE AMERICAN CITIZEN. Butler, Pa.jWednesday, Jur019,1867. Uiit Hwiis Shortly after we took charee of the American Citizen we requested tbe citi *en* of the different townships and bor oughs of our county, to favor ua with short articles upoa matters of local inter est, for publication. We return ouf thanks to those who have already eom . plied with the request. There are, no doubt, many subjects of local interest to the different parts of our edunty which conld be made known thro' <he columns of the county papers. Our readers look for and expeot to see in the columns of the county papera, the lo**al news of our county. This expectation can oaly be realised in one way —and that is, by citifns favoring us with these items for publication. You will see at onco that it is impossible for an editor to give matters of local interest, in a rural district, unless he is furnished with the same. Every person, therefore, interest ed in their county, and county papers, Will favor us with short items and com munications on subjects of interest to the people. Tt ew Jail, The contract for the New Jail and Sheriff's House, his been given to John K. Kennedy, of Prospect; he beinp the lowest bidder. We are informed that the, work is to be commenced in a short time. Mr. Kennedy is well known to many of our eitizeos as an energetic business man, and it is confidently bcliev ed that the work will he puthed forward to rapid completion. The carpenter work has been awarded to Mr. Purvis, of But ler,who is known as a first class woikmar. Owing to the fact that it wus impossi ble to have the old buildings removed from the lot at an early date, and that, iin consequence a great p'irt of the build ing season has already passed, the new buildings cannot be completed this year; but we have no doubt all will be done that perseverance and energy can accom plish. CSBSSFI, A vocal and instrumental concert will be given in the Courthouse on the even ing of the sth of July next, by the pupils of Wm. R. Colbert. This, no doubt, will be a rich enter tainment. The lovers of music, and the public generally, should make their cal culations to be present on the occasion. " 'Tit mnnic churma na U«»t on «»rth, And gre«ta us flrwt in H^nren.'* The singing of sweet, select music, is certainly very entertaining,and the old and youag could not spend the evening more appropriately than by attending the concert. Notice will be given by printed bills and programmes [June 12—4w. DESOTO, when he visile I the shores of America, sought long and arduously for the ''Spring of Perpetual Youth." that those who bathed therein might ■ever grow old in appearance. People in our day have in part discovered a sub stitute for this unfound spring in Ring's Vegetable Ambrosia, a few applications of which gives to white or gr.iy hair that dark, strong and glo«sy appearance pccu liar to youthful beauty. If any of our readers doub' this, let try a hottU and be convinced of the truth o! our as sertion. Orphsßs' Rome. We are authorized to say that speak ers will be in attendance to address the people in the Court room on Tuesday evening, June 25th.

Knowing that man/ farmara in this and adjoining counties had, heratofora, been deceived in the purchase of inferior Mow* ing Machines, before offering any for sale in thia section we endeavored to as certain which might be the beat adapted to the wanta of oar farmers. In the course of onr investigation we learned that Messrs. John Hall & Co., of Pitts* burph, had traveled over many Statea of the Union and examined nearly all the machines made, and finally selected the Union as the best and the one which they engaged in manufacturing to supply the demands of the western portion of the State; all with whom we had conversed, who had used the Union Mower, also agreed in pronouncing it a first class Ma chine; consequently, we selected it as the best, and entered into arrangements with the manufacturers to sell it to the fatmers of Butler county. Hut we find that those engaged in selling other mi> chines assert that their's are superior \J> the Union. In order, therefore, that far mors and ethers may have practical illus trations of the good and bad qualities of the different machines offered for Bile. we challenge Messrs. J. G. k Wm Camp hell. and all others engaged in the sale of Mowing Machines in this county, to en ter into a mowing match in a field which may l>e se'ected, near Butler, at as early a day as the necesssry arrangements can be made. What say you, Messrs. Camp bell, and oth»rs? Do you accept the challenge ? If so, let us proceed at once to select a field, the proper number of impartial judges, and miike the necessary arrangements for the contest. Farmers will please b°ar in mind that if the parties tj whom this challenge is extended, fail or refuse to accept, and assist in miking the necessary arrange ments, that the Union Mower will be ex hibited in a field near Butler, at the ear liest da; possible. Those who contem plate purchasing machines should wait and witness the contest or exhibition , notice of the time and place of which will be given next week. WILSON, WECKBECKER k Co..
