Tilden is out in a statement, saying that Congress is welcome to examine hia private bank account, to learn frciu it as to whether he sent the money to Oregon. If his private bank accouut does not shew the transaction, certainly nothing concerning the sending of the money can be learned from it. Some accidental Congressman proposes to impeach Judge Bradly, for, says he, Mr. Bradly took a gift. A friend gave him a silk gown to wear while sitting as a Supreme Judge. The best thing to do with the afore aaid Congressman wonld be to put a straight jacket on him and send him to an ins me asylum. Ilia constituents are to be pitied. Pt Hester, a Molly Maguire, was on trial on Bloo'iisliurg, Pa. Ou Sundty a week the jury were permitted to attend church. The parson preached a sermon about mur der.

Uepeat the above three times, three successive days, and a cure will be fleeted. Preserve this recipe. When Samuel Randall and a namber of other Congressmen from Pennsylvania come arain before the people for re-election, they will learn that thei- revolutionary pro posals iu Congreis huve been measured at their true value, and they will be elected to stay at home by overw helming majorities. The bnsiuess of the country will not over look the revolutionists when the time comes. Beily from Altoona waa one of the cbiel objectora to J. D. Moire II as an elector from this Slat.

The constituent of the fillibasters will not forget their stiipid Congressmen. The man Who argues that parents should contract debts pursues the same line ol aigument that Jay Cooke L Co. pursued when they issued a pamphlet to the coun try that a " Niiional Debt is a National Blessing."' That Company's career has demonstrated that they are unlit to give wholesome advice. The sate rule as to debt is, contract no debta that you bsve not the resources to piy, without injury to yourself or those with whom ou are con nected, or who are dependent on you. From the mouth of the Juniata Valley to the Allegheny mountains, wiih the excep tion of a very small strip of territory, the country is represented by Mr. St'-nger and Mr. Kelly in Conrrei. These g'.-utiemen have taken to OiliO'isterinp, with others in Congress, so as to prevent or delay the official announcement of President unttl the 4th of March. Of course their efforts will prove futile, but it is a most humiiia tmr ihine to have such small Doliticians rei resent so laree and honoral.lv and peace- I ably disposed a district.

Another eure has been announced for diphtheria, which is as follows: Take ordinary garden sage, make a strong tea, pat it in an ordinary tea-pot and let the pa tient inhale the steam through the spout. By this process relief is soon obtained, and in a short lime the patient is restored to health. So say those who have given it a trial. The wife and daughter of Mr. Bea jaatin Enyeart, of Union township, are reported to have deserted him because he eras "bull doled" into signing a waiver of exemption note which brought grief to the family.

The LewiBtown Gaztite of last week writes up the un lawful wi rk of a party of tramps at Lewistown, as follows: Since Glamor gan Furnace has been blown iu, auutn ber of trauips have found comfortable entertainment around its genial fires and sleeping-bertha over its hated boilers. The other evening the meals of the night trick were stolen by them, the food eaten and Ihe buckets thrown in an adjoining field. Col. Willis, the Superintendent, eame to the conclusion that hereafter these American Arabs could not be allowed to harbor around the works. Accordingly, on Monday after dinner be repaired to the furnace and ordered a party of twenty-seven away, all of wboui reiuctaully obeyed but onek who not only remained inside but showed fight when the Colonel endeavored to put him ott, striking the superinten dent in the face. The Colonel there upon ejected the man by force, who tB turned, and se'ziug a bar of iron about two feet long, attacked the Colonel, who defended himself with a large bar standing near. The tramp aimed a blow kt the superintendent's head, which lodged asross the back cf his neck with an unpleasant force. The tramp then retreated, when three of his companions, wbo Were still iingeiiug bear, came to bis rescue, all of them attacking the door, which the Colonel had locked, breaking it in and falling upon him iu a desperate manner. He retreated, a'ter a short scuffle. By this time a eouple of the bauds saw that something was up. The tramps twenty seven in nuui ber, now appeared iu a body with tbe evident iutention of clearing out the furnace, aud there bring but thirteeu of the workmen present, it looked as if their intention would te carried out, for they found they were called to lace twice their number of desperate men. The furnace bands rallied promptly, and the conflict beeaiue a baud to hand struggle fot the supremacy. Crow-bar., cudgels, lumps of cinder aud lime-stone, tongs aud iron bars were frrely used Meu were bleeding on both sides. The tramps were finally forced to yield, feeling no doubt that law and order were against their case. " The whole fight probably lasted twen ty minutes. Of tbe furnace men the following wert injured : CuK Willis, Supt , cut on right temple and stroko on back of tieck ; Gabriel Carpenter, cinder hauler, four inch cut, into the boue, on forehead ; Lewis Rideu, en gineer, severe cut ou ebeek, eye huff, and bruised iu body; Jos. II. Alter, carpenter, struck in tbe eye; others slight scratches cr bjuises. Two of the itauip- were badly hurt and fire ctbrrs more or less cut of bruised. After ihey bid driven iff, the tramps scattered, but Garrett and Cluui, with assistants, were So promptly ou their titck that bctore night tw-nt four out of twenty-seven wer lodged in jitl. Most cf them were caught on the bills across the river. At bait past six the same evening they bad a heart ig be fore Esquire Rakerd and were remand ed to jail, a Carpenter was unable to appear to identify the one that struck bim auTl others. Some of them bad shaved their beards aud mustaches off tu avoid being known. PlTRfSfj the month of September last Peter Tippery.of Morris township, missed one of his fattening hogs for the then coming winter, and after a fruit le; search about the adj lining farms, it was given up as lost. About tbe time the hog was missed Mr. T. had been eugiped in threshing wheat for seed. Time wore away until tbe 16th of the present month, when the straw in the yard was being removed, it was discov ered that tbe bog had been covored un der the s'raw pile, where be bad lain for five long months. Of course it could not be supposed that it was ia a fit condition for the pork barrel or lard can, but was the merest skeleton of a bog that ever cast a shadow ; but after careful nursing it commenced to gather strength, and doubtless will recover. Although this story seems incredible, jet it is nevertheless true, and M vouch ed for by Mr. Tippery and his farmer neighbors. Huntingdon Journal. Pitblic Sales.

Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed ; but such as remain ran be saved by this application, and stimulated into activity, so that a new growth of lia'r is produced. Instead of Touting the hair with a pasty sediment, ic will keep it clean and vigorous. It occasional use will present the hair from turning gray or falling cf ind consequently prevent baldness. The restoration of vitality it gives to the Kalp arrests and prevents! the formation of dandruff, which is often so uncleanly and offensive. Free from those deleterious sub atances which make aome prepara tions dangerous, and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit, but not harm it. If wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing els can be found so desirable. Cdn tattl ing neither oil nor dye, it does not oil white cambric, and yet last long on the hair, giving it a rich; glossy lustre, and a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C.
