RITTER & RALSTON'S. « As THE time for gardening is com ing on every person should look to their interest in securing good plants of the latest varieties, which can be had by calling on J. W. Bortmass & Co., west of town. "FROM the best information that I can get," says an Aiken (S. C.) corres pondent, "the acreage of cotton in this part of the South will be over 25 per cent, greater than last year." LAWRENCE connty is excited over the discovery of silver near New Cas tle. The discoverer alleges that he has three large boxes filled with ore which is worth $2,500 per ton. A WASHOE man was recently tried for stealing milk from a neighbors cow at night. The jury after mature delib eration, returned a verdict of "guilty of milking a cow in the first degree." THE English invaders did not euter Ghuzni without a sharp attack and con siderable losses, inflicted by the Af ghans on the way, and they may find harder work iu getting out again than in getting in. APPARENTLY all that is needlul to make the exibit of the United Stales in the fish line at Berlin exhaustively j complete is a specimen of that peculi arly American marine product—the : sea serpent. SETH GREEN* advocates frog culture. • He says that many farmers have for-1 tunes in frog ponds, and that a little i care and cultivation will produce a crop of frogs large enougt for family use, after supplying the market. ATLANTA, Ga., is puzzled over a perfect iron wedge that was taken , from the middle of a blue granit rock found forty-six feet under the ground. They just want to find the man that put that wedge there, that's all. Notioa. The Register hereby gives notice that Mondav, the 3d day of May, A.

PITTSBURGH'S public buildings are to cost three quarters of a million dollars, the bill which passed the House pro viding for their erection appropriating that amount of money for the purpose. THINGB are changing fast indeed. What with oleomargarine for butter, glucose for sugar, and suckers for sar dines, it is evident that the nation is drilting fast toward a counterfeit diet. As Mr. Gladstone was one of the warmest friends of the Northern States to be found in all England during our late unpleasantness, all Republicans in the United States should rejoice at his recent great political success and his restoration to the control of the British Government. THE latest swindle is butter con tractors—fellows going through the country making contracts with fann ers to take all their butter during the season at a large price. The usual re sult : Contracts turns out to be a note the farmer has to pay. Sign nothing you do not fully understand. IF reports are true the Cuban patri ots propose to change their style of at tack on the Spanish forces. The tor pedo boat which is supposed to have left Philadelphia on board the steamer Tropic yesterday would prove a for midable engine of war if properly han dled. THE bill in regard to a world's fair to be opened in New York iu 1883, on the hundreth anniversary of the peace between the thirteen States and Eng land, has passed both houses and gone to the President lor his signature, which it will no doubt receive. IT is not the quantity of eaten that gives strength, life, blood and health. It is the thorough digestion of the food taken, let it be much or little. There fore, do not stimulate up the stomach to crave food, but rather assist diges tion after eating, by taking Sim mons' Liver Regulater. THIS is the season of the year in which you can renew friendly relations with your neighbors by gathering the winter's accumulation of old boots and shoes, rubbers, bones,etc., and burning them in your back yard.

Nothing is so conductive to a man's remaining a bachelor as stopping for one night at the house of a married riend and being kept awake for five or six hours by the crying of a cross ba by. All cross and crying babies need only Hop Bitters to make them well and smiling. Young man remember this.— Tra reller. ADDITIONAL particulars of the terri ble tornado at Marshfield, Mo., lately., shows that its havoc was not exagger ated by the first accounts. Besides an immense destruction of property there was a fearful loss of life. Some of the victims seem to have been blown en tirely away. It was worse than an earthquake or the eruption of a vol cano. PATHANS in Afghanistan, judging from recent events, are as fond of home rule as Irishmen in the Emerald Isle, and do as much to secure it. They I have overthrown the Dubrai post, and 1 are now on the Pish in border. Lord Beaconfield has bequeathed a peculiar Afghan legacy to his successors, since either to advance or to retreat will be costly business. A 4'ard.

Joseph Miller, of Adams township this county, was struck by lightning on Sun- I day last, 25th inst. The rod seems to ! have conveyed the electricity to the | ground and saved the barn. The rod at the top was melted. As an incident, a chicken on the ground near where the rod entered was killed. THE result of last Tuesday's proceed ings at Syracuse, N. Y., was a sub stantial victory for Mr. Tilden. A test vote in the afternoon session demon strated that his friends were in a ma jority of two hundred and ninety-five to eighty, and from that moment there was no doubt of their ability to con trol the regular Convention, however the contested seats might be awarded. THE Pennsylvania State College offers free tuition to all who enter its classes. Being liberally endowed by the state, it is able not only to make this proposition, but it also provides kitchens and furnishes the fuel for them free of charge to those students who wish to lessen their expenses by boarding themselves.

Thous ands of eggs are stolen every year by . nest-robbing urchins, who are respon sible in a large measure for the scar city of the birds. We have before called attention to the bird-eating hab ' its of the domestic cat. It ought to bo ■ understood that a single cat will des ■ troy more birds on a farm than all the 1 kinds of vermin together. If you care i anything for the song bird, make way with the i»ruyi ng cet. tEfye ffljfxxtljex! (£itiss&tt: Strtlee, P«.t 2®# I^Bo. THERE has been some sharp fighting in Afghanistan once more. The Bri- ( tish forces under General Stewart were attacked a short distance below Ghuzni by 15,000 Afghans and an hour of des perate fightiug followed, the Afghans being beaten off with a loss of fully 1,000 killed. The British loss was comp tratively trilling, consisting of only seventeen killed and one hundred and fifteen wounded. WILLIAM Y. MOSIER, a prosperous farmer, forty-five years old, hung him self in his barn, at Mosiertown, Craw- j ford county, lately. It is not known j that he had any family or pecuniary troubles. He went to the barn shortly atter daylight, as if to attend to his stock, but not returning to the house at his usual time, some members of his family went to seek him. When found life was extinct. Several of Mr. Mosier's ancestors, are said to have taken their own lives. Just Rend This?

WHEN Kallocb, senior, now San Francisco's mayor, lived in Kansas, he was known as the "Sorrel Stallion, of Kaw Bottom," and his son, who shot Charles De Young last Friday even ing in San Francisco, was called the "Sorrel Stallion, junior." The boy then had the reputation of being a low ruffian, drank deeply, and bore out bis father's reputation as a bully. Now he is a murderer—the logical results of bis bad blood, bad training and bad habits. 16 Yards* For sl, Plaid Dress Goods, at RITTER & RALSTON'S. Wheat! Wheat!

A BURGLAR concealed himself in the house of a Philadelphia physician a few nights ago, and after the family had retired commenced his search for plunder. The physician was awakened by a noise, but discovered that he had loaned his revolver. Taking an empty paper bag, he inflated it from his lungs, and creeping down stairs, overtook the intruder as bo came from the parlor. With a shout, the doctor exploded the paper bag upon the stair railing, mak ing a terrific report, and frightening the stranger so that he tumbled upon the floor, thinking he had been shot, and appealed for mercy. 10 Yarcln For Wl, Unbleached Muslin, at RITTER & BAI.STON'S.

THE Brookville Bej>ubliean is happy over an anticipated gold mine in .Jef ferson county. It says: "Last week we were shown a specimen of gold quartz, by Dr. J. S. Hughes, found a couple of miles south of Brookville. It had all the peculiarities of rich ore, ami contain a lump of pure metal about the size of a grain of corn. We un derstand that .Mr. C. B. Gutli applied the usual test to the specimen, and de cided it pure gold. There is no tel liug how much of the precious metal exists iu our neighborhood, but it would not take much of this same specimen to throw the oil 'boom' clear in the shade." Fees of Doctors The fee of doctors is an item that very many persons are interested it just at present. We believe the sched ule for visits is $3.00, which would tax a man confined to his bed for a year, and in need of a daily visit, over SI,OOO a year for medical attendance alone! And one single bottle of Hop Bitters taken in time would save the SI,OOO and all the year's sickues.— Pout. COUNT. MEASURE AND WEIGH EVERY THING YOU BUY.

There seems to have been nothing in the young man's personal habits or so cial relations that could have de pressed his mind and induced a suici dal impulse, while the ingenuity and deliberation indicated by the perfection of the machinery which caused his death show a condition cf mind which most alienists would have pronounced healthful, while the amount of time necessarily consumed in the erection of the fatal machine would have sufficed for the dissipation of any wild impulse. The theory of insanity, advanced by the father of the deceased, is probably correct, for it is well known that men tal alienation often exists only in single faculties, and in the case in question it is likely that an admitted family infir mity was fatally localized by thought upon details of criminal cases and su icides, upon which acquaintances of the young man declare him to have been unusually well informed. The case is a terrible warning to the many people, professing to be respectable, who find special enjoyment in the con templation of life in its dark and ab normal phases. < arputH, We are selling more Carpets than ever before.

AFTER all we have heard of the suf ferring in Ireland, and all the country has done to relieve it, such news items as this, which we find in the Dublin Irixh Time # of March 23, have an odd look: "Almost every steamer leaving Dublin for England takes large qualities of Irish seed pota toes nightly for agricultural districts in Lancashire and Yorkshire, but up to the present time the largest weights of theseesculents bave been despatched to Wales, the London and North western line to Holyhead taking as much as sixty to eighty tons daily. In addition to the steamers return col liers are being largely employed in this traffic ; and while, of course, a great deal of this seed reaches the LilTey from Munster counties, it is a note worthy fact in this period of distress in the west of Ireland that by far the largest qualities of seed tubers shipped from Dublin for England and Wales, and occasionally for Scotland, come di rect from Connaugh counties, and es pecially from the district of Castleren, Castlebar, ClaPemorris, and other Mayo and Gal way neighborhoods where the suffering is said to be keen."

Empire Mills at $l4O per sack, will Raise well, make good sweet bread, and give as good satisfaction as other brands sold at $1.50 to $1 00 per sack—our cheapest is of course dark. As reference that the Camp & Ran dall Manufacturing Co.'s flour has giv en good satisfaction, we can show by the books of the Penn'a Railroad Co. at Butler, that we have received more flour in the past year than any other grocery house in Butler Co. Owing to the increased trade we have on this make of fl'<ur, merchants, in order to sell other brands, make all kinds of re marks ; the general saying is, it is just as good as "Red Ball others try to get flour put up under the same brands, and some have gone so far as to say the flour sold by us is short weight, &c. It is an easy matter for any dealer to get a few sacks of the brands we handle, and in order to help them sell other inferior grades on which larger profits are made, open the sacks take out a few pounds and then say it is short weight. What ice bave is all full weight; we guarantee every sack to contain 49 pounds, and wfll lie pleased to weigh or have our flour weighed by our customers. G. WILSON MILLER & BRO.

WASHINGTON, April 20.—Letters patent were issued to-day from the Patent OHice, granting a patent to Pe ter Herdic, of Williamsport, Pa., for improvements in running gears for ve hicles, which it is claimed, will revolu tionize the present system of local per sonal transportation. The improve ments combine greater strength of the more important parts, a very great re duction of friction and strain incident to jolting over inequalities of the grouud, and secure to till vehicles to which tLey may be applied, the advan tages of easy running and abrupt turn ing. The main object of the inventor, as set forth in bis application, is to adapt these improvements to light and and heavy vehicles, to supply the places of the lumbering stages and coaches now in common use. Wealthy parties have already entered into arrangements with the inventor, and will begin at once to manufacture and introduce here and in the principal cities of the "oun try vehicles adapted to the wants of personal transportation, constructed up on the improved principles secured by Mr. Ilerdic's patent.

Nearly two thousand sacks of Flour have been received and bought by us this month, all at the decline, and we have therefore reduced our prices from twenty to sixty cents per barrel, mak ing a total reduction on some brands of one dollar per barrel in two weeks. Evervbodv that uses it says, "The Oriental is the best flour I have ever used." This Brand is sold by us only, and is sold from ten to twenty cents per sack less than flours elsewhere of inferior quality. Get our new price list, just out, be fore purchasing flour. KMNULF.U FLOUR HOUSE. ®SOO Reward—Catarrh Cure. Some people would rather be hum bugged than to get "value received" for their money. Hence it is that such persons run after this and that pre tended cure for catarrh, forgetting that Dr. Sage's Catarrh Heniedv is so positive in its effects, that its former proprietor advertised it for years throughout the United States under a positive guarantee, offering SSOO re ward for an incurable case and was never called upon to pay this reward except in two cases. This remedy has acquired such a fame that a branch office has been established in London, England, to supply the foreign demand for it. Sold by druggists at 50 cents. UNABLE TO BREATIIB THROUGH NOSE.

The aches aud pains as well as sore throat and catarrh from which I have beeu for so long a time a sufferer, have en tirely left me with their use. I feel like a new man as well as look like one. For four years I was unable to breathe through my nose. From the use of the Catarrh Remedy I can now do so freely. Your medicines I know to be all that they are represented.

This diseese like many others IS regarded as incurable. It is not so. If it is taken in time it is AS easily cured ns a wart or A corn.
