A demented man who gave his name as John Boyce, was found in Cherry township on Mon day running naked through the woods and along the public roads. He was arrested, and vi he was violent and refused to have any clothing put on him. he was chained and brought to towu naked, when he was committed to jail. Next morning he tore up thing-t gen erally in the jail. His insanity takes a religious tarn.

The charge consists of an ounce and a half of dynamite, which would destroy the largest block of buildings in the world. —These are the dreaded -'dog days." Why they are so called, is thus explained by some one who pretends to know : "The days, which are 40 in number, take their name from the Dog Star, or Sirius; and are sometimes called 'Canicular Days," because the Latin name of the star is 'Canicular.' They are the days between the 18th of July aud the 28th of August, during which time the Ancients as cribed the great heat to the manner in which the Dog Star raged." —lt is remarkable that, simultane ously with the advancement of our older and larger colleges in their scholastic requirements, there has been a steady and great falling off in the number of young men furnished by them to the Christian ministry. The further they have risen above high schools, the less has been the tendency of their graduates to devote them selves to the study of theology aud to enter the clerical profession. —England has just finished a ram that is supposed to be almost invincible, the United States Government has been trying a torpedo that may blow the raiu to pieces, and a Pittsburg man has been experimenting with a new breech-loading rifled cannon of unusual power. That old problem about what would happen if an irresistible force should meet an immovable body will yet be put to the test if inventors go on improving their guns, torpe does, and armored vessels. —The murderers of McClure, the McKeesport hardware man, have not yet been apprehended, although they have been hunted for through the woods of Allegheny, Westmore land, Fayette and Green counties since the murder. This was one of the greatest outrages that has ever been comraited in Western Penn sylvania, and when the murderers are arrested, aud their identity established beyond a doubt, by confession or otherwise, an application of the law as set forth bv Judge Lynch would have a good effect on the desperadoes of tliut lawless region. —The directors or the Glass Com pany of this place held a meeting last Monday evening and elected Jacob Keck, President; J. E. Byers, M. D. ( Secretary, and Adam Trout man, Treasurer. These gentlemen, with Jo seph Purvis, Albert Reiber. Allen Heck and Wilson Miller, constitute the board of direc tors. W. D. Brandon, Esq., was elected attor ney for the company. The capital stock was fixed at SIO,OOO, and the works will be located on the old distillery lot. The name of the com pany will be The Butler Glass Co., and a char ter will be applied for. —A ram which runs under the water with great speed, and is built to throw torpe does and do great destruction generally, is the latest discovery. It is taken tor granted that the thing was built to destroy England, because an Irish schoolmaster invented it and superin tended the construction. But nobody has ven tured to explain how the ram was to be got across the ocean without detection. Doubtless the Fenian leaders talk very ferociously and alarmingly, but so long as their supposed 'plots' are carried on so openly and with so am ple warning, Eugland need not feel any consid erable concern about their doings. —The North Washington Academy will open on the 23d inst. A good attendance is expected. Thorough teachers for the next year have been secured and the Faculty expect to be able to do even better work than in the past. Two courses of study have been marked out and adopted at this academy—a Teacher's course and a College preparatory course. The school supports an excellent reading room. Boarding can l>e l ad at from $2 to $3 per week. Rooms for self boarders, 75 cents per month. For further information, enquire of R. C.

On the 14th and 15th it will be cloudy, but pleasant; on the 16th possibly storms in this latitude, and on the two following days hail storms with possible frost, when heat and storms will occur until the 21st. The 22d is billed as sultry and showery ; 23d and 24tb, heat and wind ; 25th and 20th, heavy storms on the lakes ; 27th to 2!>th cooler, with rains and frost in the north ern section, and 30th and 31st, fair and pleasant weather, nights cool. —The opinion is general among stock operators that Vanderbilt and Gould are working together to produce a panic. Both have sold stocks at a high figure, and it would not be unpleasant to them to see the prices bro ken down so that thev could buy these back at cheap rates. This is the explanation now given of the railroad war, now raging so savagely, and which we are told will continue to rage un til the market be broken. The probability in creases that there will be a stock panic early in September, when the now over-flowing reser voir of money in New York begins to be sensi ble of the drain of currency to tne west to move the crops. —Prohibition was beaten in North Carolina, last Thursday, by un adverse majori ty of about 40.000. This is not to be wondered at. In fact, tne only strange thing about the matter is that the Legislature should have submitted the proposition to a popular vote. luStates which have had far more experience than North Carolina with legislation against the liquor traffic there is no marked sentiment now in favor of attempting absolute prohibi tion. Public opinion moves, instead, in the direction of more thorough measures to curb and limit the trade in stimulating drinks. The trouble with prohibition is twofold—it does not prohibit, for liquor selling goes on in spite of it, and it is regarded by a large portion of the community as an invasion of individual liberty. —The Yorktown celebration is sink ing to limit# which promise to make it practi cable, its projectors at first proposed a celebra tion lasting twenty days or more. Each of the thirteen original States was to have day to itself, furnishing an oration and other alluring features; then several days were set apart for the celebration by Congress and for miscella neous performances. Such a scheme would have been ambitious even for a great city, with its variety of attractions to occupy the time ; iu the little Virginia village where the ceremonies must take place, it was preposterous. Now the local programme has been changed so as to be gin only on the Ist of October, and by dint of orations, fireworks, promenade concerts, and a boat race the time will be occupied until the national ceremonies of Oct. 18 and 19. This degree of concentration will prove an advan tage. —1 he Lynchburg Virginian de scribes an ingenious trap devised by a Virginia farmer to capture sheep-killing dogs. Having suffered severely from the depredations of dogs upon his sheep-fold, he built around a number of sheep that dogs had killed an inclosure of rails twelve feet high and about ten feet square at the ground, the sides of the trap sloping in ward until an opening was left about five feet square. Any dog could easily climb such a sloping fence and enter the pen, but not even a grevhound could jump out of it. In three nights the farmer captured forty-six dogs, in cluding fifteeu or twenty that had never been seen before in that neighborhood. This, after there hud been a public slaughter of all do?s suspected of sheep-lcilling, save one, whose mas ter could not be convinced of his guilt. The trap was built for his especial benefit, and it caught him the first night. —Mr. Crowe, of Peoria, Illinois, who is just now at war with the Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, still lights the lamps of the western city in which he makes his home; for the story or his arrest was, it appears, only a practical joke played upon a "too credulous reporter." Some reporter who had heard that machines capable of blowing a ship to atoms had been found on a Cunard stean.er, that Crowe ha«l made them that it was against the law and that Crowe had been taken into custo dy by the viewed the whole case from a standpoint of primitive faith in author ity, and thought the story of Crowe's arrest not necessarily ridiculous, and therefore sent it for ward. But of oourse it was a hoax and the American eagle still proudly flaps its wings over Crowe, who is safe in the protection of the law which, so far as is shown, he has not yet SIRE JUNITEV : PNILER, P*., SLUCITTST 10, 1881. violated ; for, though he admit* that he made the machines, that is not a crime, and it re mains to be ascertained who put them upon the ship, or even packed them for shipment, since both these acts are punishable under va rious sections of the Revised Statutes of the United States. —There is a steamship race every year from China to England, the prize being the glory and profit of putting the first cargo of the new crop of teas into the Loudon market. This year the Glencoe arrived on June 30, four days earlier than the earliest previous arrival. The Glencoe was al.--o the first steamer to arrive in each of the two preceding years. The Glen eagle carried off the prize in 1878, the London Castle in 1877, ami the Glenartney led the way in each of the four years ending with 1876. The Glenartney has iust made a quick passage trom China to New \ ork pretty nearly in company with a tea ship of a rival liue under interesting circumstances, although if there is any point on which the two captains agree wholly and unequivocally it is that there wn no race. Or dinarily there is no race to New York, for the early teas come first by rail from San Francis co, to which place they are brought by the Pa cific Mail steamships, but there were some cir cumstances this year which would serve to sup ply a reason for a race if one had really occur red. The Glenartney arrived at the Lightship, off New York tarbor, 50 days, 17 hours and 15 minutes after leaving Aniov with her cargo. —lt is somewhat unfortunate that the question of a reform in the Civil Service thould have received its present impetus from the injury to the President. It tends to destroy the proper perspective of the subject, and to force secondary matters int.) the foreground. The question is not one of saving the time and suiting the convenience of public officials, neither is it one of guarding the President from such attacks of disappointed office-seekers. Nor is it even the problem of securing for the coun try a better administration of the public offices than it now enjoys. It is "llow snail we get rid of the professional politician, who works for the party for the sake of an office, and be comes the slave of its leaders in order to retain the office ? How shall we prevent the sixty thousand office-holders from becoming an or ganized machine to repress all free expression of popular feeling and opinion ?" The only true solution is to be found in elevating every office holder above the level of party dictation, by giving him security for his place so long as he Behaves himself in it. This will have sev eral advantages. In the first place, it will re duce the appointments to so small a number, that it will not be worth anyone's time to wait for them ; and it will make'it possible to exert public opinion in favor of good and against bad nominations. In the second, the citizen who holds an office will have just as much interest in political management as the citizen who is out of office, and will have just as few facilities for such management. The sixty thousand will be no longer a political machine. In the third, offices held tut vitam aut ctilpatu will be so much more valuable, that they will be accepted at a lower rate of coni]>ensation than at preseDt, and the incumbents will have more powerful motives to honesty in the public service. Last ly, the official experience acquired in any de partment will be saved to the Government, in stead of being destroyed by removals and the substitution of green hands. — The American. The above seems to us to be all right, so far as the departments at Washington, customs and internal revenue collectors, foreign minis ters and consuls, etc., are concerned, but we think the postmasters of the country should be made elective, every man who receives his mail at a certain P. O. to be a qualified elector for the filling of that P. 0., and the people of any community would undoubtedly retain a post master who gave entire satisfaction. Pennsylvania Slate College Scholarship. STATE COLLEGE, CENTRE 00., Pa., I July 11, 1881. ( To Hon. John M. Greer, Uutler, Pa. : DEAII Slß— The Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Pennsylvania State College have determined to establish fifty (50) free scholarships in the institution—one for each Senatorial district in the State. All tuition in the College is already free. These scholar ships, in addition to the tuition, will entitle the holders thereof to exemption from the payment of other college charges for incidentals, room rent, fuel, and use of furniture. It is believed that this can be done without adding materially to the expenses of the institu tion, whilst its benefits will be enlarged to the extent of these scholarships. The conditions aro, that the scholar, after a competitive examination of the studies required for admission, receive the appointment from the Senator of his district, and that said scholar be at least fifteen (15) years of age, of good char acter, and fully prepared for admission to the Freshmen class. The stndent BO appointed shall be entitled to the benefits of his scholar ship for the four years of liis college course, provided that his conduct and class standing be satisfactory to the Faculty. So soon as avt jan cy occurs, from any cause, the Senator of the district shall have authority to fill the scholar ship by a new appointment, under similar condi tions. In view of these facts, you will please arrange for an examination to be held at some suitable point in your district, by a committee approved ly yourtelf. The subjects for examination for the year 1881-82 a e. for all applicants, the com mon English branches, Physical Geography, Higher Algebra (to Quadratics), Geometry (4 books), and U. 8- History. The special require ments of applicants for admission to the Scien tific course will be the elements of Natural Phi losophy ; the special requirements made of Clas sical students are Cesar <3 books), Cicero's Ora tions (8), and Xenoplion's Anabasis. A student whose qualifications fall, in some respects, be low the standard, but are in others so much above that standard as to give a reasonable hope that he will make up his deficiencies, mav be admitted on probation. Should no one pre sent himself who is entitled to enter as a Fresh man, a qualified applicant for higher class stand ing may be admitted. As soon as the appointment shall have been made in your diatrict you will please notify the college authorities of the fact, giving the name and address of the appointee. Although our staudard of admission to the college classes will be higher after the coming setsion. and special courses in Civil Engineering Chemistry and Physics, and Natural Science have been added to the courses recognized iu the prexeut catalogue, I forward a copy of that catalogue as giving, on pages 18 and 30, a cor. rect idea of tue preparation required of those who would now enter as Freshmen. We shal' be glad to fnrnish any farther information con cerning this or other matters relating to the College. Requesting your early and hearty co -operation in securing, for your "scholarship," the best student available, I remain, Yours respectfully, Jas. Y. MCKEE, Acting President.

For the CITIZEN*. TIIE FAIR. BUFFALO TP., August 8, 1881. MESSRS. EDITORS:—I have been looking over the catalogue of Premiums for the next annual Fair of Butler county, and find that liberal induce ments have been offered to every one seeing fit to attend with articles for competition. I think that it is nothing but right that our citizens over the county should not only feel but take an interest in having the coming fair a complete success. The managers can not do this without the aid, and I would say the generous support, of the people generally, in the townships and boroughs. A few men in Butler, or elsewhere, cannot make the thing a success, without the support of all. And to whose interests does the coming Fair add more to than farmers and mechanics? Let every man think of this, and by a united -effort good can be accomplished, benefiting all. Let every man take something. All can not have premiums, but all can try, and no one knows if his article is best till he puts in in competition with his neighbors. There are plenty of people go to Fairs to see what is to be seen, and they say, "why I have something at home that will beat that." Now if all who have these better things at home would take them out, they would not only gratify themselves by the compar ison with others, but gratify every oth er person. The premium list offers in ducements to all branches of industry and art to enter their articles of what ever class. The report of the last Fair held at Butler, ranks well with others in the State, in the State Agricultural report; and all that is wanting now, is for the people of the county to take the matter in hand and make the next one a complete success; in o»her words, make it one that every citizen of the county will be glad to look upon, and going home can say." It was the best Fair ever held in Butler county." By so doing you will bring your county into notice at home, as well as any from h->me. Our county is among the richest in mineral wealth of any in the State. Her coal, oil, limestone, iron ore, is known over the world. By a united effort let us make known to outsiders her agri cultural and other wealth, for she is as great in these as in the others. If by these few lines I have done anything toward forwarding the interests of my native county, I will feel fully repaid, by not only being on hands myself, but seeing hundreds of others in attend ance Nor do I wish them to go merely to see, but bring with them something for others to see. If all do so, then will our Fairs hereafter lie a place where the attractions will draw not only the residents of this but of other counties. ZENO. [Worcester (Mass.) Spy.] Nothing on Earth HO Good. Certainly a strong opinion, said one of our reporters to whom the following was detailed by Mr Henry Kashop, with Mr. Geo. E. Miller, 418 Main St., this city: I suffered so badly with rheumatism in my leg last winter, that I was unable to attend to my work, being completely helpless. I heard of St. Jacobs oil and bought a bottle, af ter using which I felt greatly relieved. With the use of the second bottle I was completely cured. In my estima tion there is nothing on earth so good for rheumatism as St Jacobs Oil. It acts like a charm. Carpets. Clothing and Geiita' Furnishing Goods.

A Benetielent Action. The worn look and miserable feel ings of those closely confined in mills, or at desks, or work tables, are caused by weak Stomach, Kidneys or bowels, and show the necessity for some mild tonic to build them up. No one need suffer thus who will use Parker's Gin ger Tonic; for without intoxicating it has such a beneficient action on these sluggish orgaus and so cleanses the poisenous matters from the system, that rosy cheeks and good health and spirits are soon brought back again.— Express.
