"A man in Berks county has worn a pair of stock ings constantly for thirteen years." Pretty durable stockings, but we should think they would soon need washing. Health journals say that stockings should be changed at least once a year, on sanitary grounds alone. —Hundreds ofpeople passed through the catafalque at Cleveland the day after the funeral, and admired its mas sive beauty. It is really wonderfull that a structure of its size and adorn ment could have been erected in so short a time. But many willing hands gave themselves to the task. —lt is an interesting coincidence that President Garfield's death occur red on the anniversary of that battle of Jhickamauga, fought eighteen years before, which won him his brevet as Major-Qeneral, and special mention for the courage and coolness that shone so conspicuous in bis last and trying days. —A number of persons in Ligonier Valley, Westmoreland county, not be lieving that Elias Ramsey, a notorious character of that place, was dead, recently went to his grave and dug up the remains, which were interred in July last. The widow of Ramsey has entered suit against all parties engaged in this work. —The Bald Ridge Oil Company, intend commencing a new well next week.

The agent of the Pipe Line Co., visited this territory yesterday to see about running a pipe line from it, to either Butler or Her man Station. —The last Legislature passed a very stringent law against trespassing.

Cash, bedding, provisions, and grass seeds are needed, and great destitution through the com ing winter can alone be avoided by prompt and generous action on the part of the people of these United States. The great sorrow that has for some days shut these helpless sufferers from sight, should so have softened the Na tion's heart and broadened its charity, as to cause every hand to open in ready giving. Notice to Collectors of County Taxes tor 1881. In a former notice to collectors, we requested payment of two-thirds of the amount on the tax duplicates on a cer tain date. A few complied, and to those who have not paid the two-thirds as requested, we give notice that the full two-thirds must be paid on or be fore Oct. 14, 1881. We are makiug heavy payments and collectors must respond, otherwise we will be compell ed to enforce payment. By order of the Commissioners. 2 S. MCCLTMONDS, Clerk. According to a veracious western journal a fountain has been discovered in Arkansas that flows 40 gallons per minute of excellent apple-jack brandy. The tide of immigration will now take a bender to the southwest. —A championship match of some interest is the one that will come off" at Chicago at the close of November for the butter, egg and cheese supremacy of the United States. A number of interesting contests in butter are an nounced, one of them being styled a "sweepstakes for best butter from cow's milk or cream, made under any process, time or place." These cheese and but ter competitions may be fairly said to illustrate the Scriptural races that are not to the swift, and the battles that are not to the strong. —Garfield, the statesman, might have died, and his intimates would have mourned him, and passing trib utes of regret would have been paid him by those that recalled his worth. Qarfield, the President, might have died as others have died, and the peo ple would have borne themselves with a becoming sensibility of their loss. But dying as he did, after revealing the depths of his nature, he was more I than statesman, more than President, and the man, disassociated from his honors and his office, is mourned as the friend. —President Arthur'a path is at best a rough one. The people are ready to smooth it for him ; but should he re ject their aid, he will find it impossible to extricate himself from the pitfalls that will beset him. He has discharged his first duty acceptably in calling the Senate to choose bis successor. His liext great duty is to turn bis back on the Grant crowd and select his advisers without their suggestion or direction. The Republican party threw them over at Chicago. The country ap plauded their fall and will not tolerate their restoration. —A Philadelphia medical journal commenting on the official report of the autopsy held on President Garfield's remain's, declares that no human skill could have saved the patient, and that Dr. Agnew, who might be sup posed to echo the sentiment of the other attending surgeons, stated weeks ago that the position of the bullet was unknown. The report sets at rest a disputed point concerning the fatal hemorrhage, showing that it came from a rent in the splenic artery. —On Tuesday evening Prof. Louis Yon Meyerboff, of Butler, gave an im promptu musical entertainment at the Hotel Brunswick, where an apprecia tive audience had gathered and were made the recipients of a rare treat. The Professor demonstrated his mastery of the piano. Several declared that they had never heard any playing before. i*rof. Meyerhoff has built up for him self an enviable reputation in Butler wbich is not confined to that immedi ate locality by any means.— Petroiia Record. Those wishing to avail themselves of his services will find the Professor at the Lowry House. —Our readers will find the general election proclamation for the coming State and county election in another place. It should be read by all elec tors not acquainted with the provis ions of the State and national constitu tions regarding tbe qualifications of electors, and provisions of the State constitution and State laws regarding the general election. The County Commissioners will send out tbe elec tion papers to tbe different election boards in a few days. The only change made in the places of holding elections, since the last general election, was that made last January for Franklin town ship, whose electors will hereafter vote at Grange Hall in the borough of Prospect. —The Massachusetts Republican Convention was held when the nation was under the shadow of death. The character of the proceedings was befit ting tbe peculiar time. The present State officers were renominated with out opposition. The platform demands thorough measures to protect the bal lot-box ; tbe establishment of the gold standard ; a conservative tariff revision; reform in the method of appointments ; legislation governing Presidential counts; national aid to education in illiterate regions; a stable Indian policy; and the suppression of polyga my. Among the resolutions were touching allusions to the lamented Chief-Magistrate, and pledges of sup port to his successor in all right mea sures. —Tbe report forwarded by our Co Commissioners to the Secretary of In ternal Affairs at Harrisburg, gives the number of taxables in this county at 13,297 ; the value of tbe real estate in the county assessed at $9,557,615 ; the amount of money at interest, $189,066; the number of horses in the county at 8,430, valued at $338,609 ; the number of cows at 10,463, valued at $145,370 ; buggies valued at $36,968; occupations valued at $272,575. The aggregate value of all property as assessed is $lO,- 331,408; the State tax is $1,317.20; county tax $46,461.10. Buggies and watches over a certain value are taxa ble for State purposes, but we are in formed there are whole townships in the county from which none are re turned. —Among the death notices this week will be found that of Michael McGin ley, of Oakland township, who died last Tuesday at the age of 82 years. His brother John McGinlev, who now owns and lives in the Campbell Pur viance house on Pearl street, this town, is aged 84 years, and is still quite act ive. Their parents came to this coun try from Donegal county, Ireland, eighty-two years ago. John was two years old at the time and Michael was born on the ship, during the voyage. When born he was so delicate that they thought him dead and a bag was made, in which to throw him into the sea, but as "he was a boy" they thought they would postpone that performance ' for one hour, during which time he 1 showed some signs of life.

The fire of last week, which destroyed property to the value of $2,000,000, may be at tributed to the Nihilists, the torch be ing a common weapon of Russian re venge. As the fire began in the Mer chants' Bazaar, it was more probably accidental. The activity of the Nihi lists and their Socialist allies, is, how ever, very great They have compell ed the Czar to keep secret the place where he is to meet the Austrian Em peror, and they have caused the three Eastern Powers to call on Switzerland to prohibit the proposed Socialist Con gress at Berne. Combined with the failure of the Russian Anti-Nihilist League, these facts show that the rev olutionary party is still formidable. FALL OF AN ANCIENT CHIMNEY.— On yesterday about noon, there was heard a noise in this place, that indi cated "something had fallen." It did not resemble "the noise of many wat ers," but was more like unto "the wreck of matter and the crash of worlds." When the neighbors ran to the spot it proved to be the fall <Jf a very large asd very old chimney in one of Mr. Dougal's "rows" of houses on Main street, being the one on the east side, about opposite Jimmy Shanor's shop. This chimney was one that was "fear fully and wonderfully made," being like man himself, in that respect. In its fall it carried down with it part of the building in which it was. Thus does time bring down all things. But Mr. Dougal yet lives and seems to be surviving some of the structures be erected and known as "Dougal'sßows." No persons were living in this one, at the time of its fall. Its departure, after an existence, it is thought of more than eighty years, was peaceful and is not regretted. —"A WORD TO THE WISE IS SUFFI CIENT."—An effective and agreeable remedy for the treatment of Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness is Ely's Cream Balm.

That for the week commencing Oct. 10 can be seen in another place —Tn the terrible suffering of the vic tims of the Michigan fires another great occasion has arisen for the prompt and abundant outpouring of relief. There has been no such need for general and generous giving since the prevalence of yellow fever in the South three years ago. The calamity which has befallen the burned-out people of the west calls as loudly as that did, for widespread, systematic and effective action to save the imperilled lives of a large community. Not only are the thousands of men, women and children who were driven from their homes by the devouring flames shelterless and destitute of food and clothing, but their affliction is aggravated by the ravages of disease. Typho-malarial fever, bil ious colic and pneumonia are playing sad bavoc among them. Many have died, and many others are upon the verge of death. Among these unfor tunates are half-starved and scantily clad mothers, and little babes who have no language but a cry. Their pitiable case appeals eloquently for immediate and substantial help. The national heart is just now in a kindly mood. The better feelings of our nature have been stirred as they never were before by the melancholy tragedy which has just culminated in the death and burial, after long weeks of weariness and pain, borne with heroic fortitude and hum ble resignation, of a President of the United States and a beloved leader of | the people. —lf the lessons of Mr. Garfield's pure and brave life are to have due weight with us, there will be an abate ment of our partisan bitterness and a deeper sense of our common interests as American citizens. And there will be less and less of the unhappy antag onisms which have divided the sections of our country on political lines. An other principal with which Mr. Gar field's name is identified, is that of the reform of our political methods. He was not a reformer by profession. He found himself thrown into the work ings of a system which was regarded by his associates as the only system possible for our country. It was very slowly that he learned to regard it very differently. He was not in a position to discover very quickly the mischiefs it was doing to the country. He rep resented a constituency exceptional in its intellectual and moral character. The Western Reserve people expected in him an independence and a breadth of view which other constituencies for bid to their representatives. Thev never degraded him to the level of an agent for office-seekers. He was under no necessity to manipulate conventions and conciliate "workers" in order to se cure a re-nomination. He was, there fore, not among the first who saw the need of a change, nor was be ever among those who expressed very em phatic and definite convictions as to the shape the change must take. Yet he has put himself upon tha record as hav ing reached the belief that we cannot go on as we have been going.

The same proceedings were had re garding Mrs. Cristina Koetz, of Win field township, and rule granted on that township.

NEW ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO, } September 23, 1881. ) EDITORS CITIZEN:—I remember when I was last in Butler, that I promised to write to you, and send you a few notes about Albuquerque and New Mexico. We have been living here now about a month, and are beginning to like it very well. We are getting a very comfortable home built, into which we expect to move in about two months Our house is 41 oy 36 feet, and is being built of ter ronils, sod cut on the banks of the Rio Grande and when dry becomes as hard as brick. The mortar is made from the sand, both for building and plaster ing; the sand is full of alkalins and all that it needs is to wet it and work it like lime mortar. New Mexico is indeed a strange looking country, and any one from the States could scarcely imagine that he is still in North America. Our trip here was one of considera ble danger as it was in the midst of the rainy season. While crossing Kansas we had a collision, I was asleep in an upper birth in the sleeping car and narrowly escaped being pitched out on my head. When we got as far as New Mexico we were delayed, sometimes a day or a night at one time; those delays were , caused by the great rains. In the month of August heavy rain storms came, and sometimes a train can pass over the road in safety, but as you look you may see part of the track carried away with the flood. The mountains are looking green at present, there having been so much rain this summer. We are living in New Albuquerque, and in one of the prettiest places in tbe city. The new town is connected with the old by street cars which leave the piazza every fifteen minutes. The whole length of the street car track is three miles. The population of old and new towns is about 7,000 inhabi tants. The old town is very strange and amusing to visit, they have some very nice gardens and choice fruits, some very large vineyards and peach orchards around tbe town. What is so strange about the old town is its appearance, you will see a sign hang ing over a door, and from the streets you might tdke the bouse for a large cow stable daubed with mud (for mud mends every house and raw hide every wagon and fence both among the In dians and Mexicans) but enter and you will find as much goods for sale, and of as good a quality as you will find in any .store in Butler or Pittsburgh. The new town has some very handsome stores both inside and outside. These new stores are built two stories high, tbe walls of the fronts, some of them, iron and tin roofing. The Mex icans are a very slow people, they do everything as it was done a thousand years ago, they tread out the grain with horses, oxen, donkeys and some times sheep ; then they toss it up with forks in the wind, and so separate the chaff from the grain The women grind the com in little mills, but of late a number of grist mills have been erected around Albuquerque and now the men complain, saying that their women are very lazy, and make them go to the mill with the grain. Both the old and new towns are on the east bank of the Rio Grande, the western banks seems to be nothing but sand rocks. The valley on the east side is about twenty miles in width and I have no idea how long. It seems to be nothing but sand, yet they raise as fine fields of corn as I have ever seen; this is done by irrigation. Sakies, as the Mexicans call them, run from the river, giving abundance of water to the fields. Cabbages grow three or four times as large as in tbe east, onions weighing six or seven pounds each. What I have seen of New Mexico, the greater part of it is either sand, vallies or mountains of lava rocks. I have often been at a loss to know what led Baron Alexander Von Hum boldt to say. "The wealth of the world will be found in New Mexico and Arizona, but I suppose the Professor of Geology would understand it better than I can. There is no doubt howev er, but that this country is rich in its mineral resources. It gives me great amusement to watch the strange mix ture of men and animals passing through the streets ot Albuquerque, you can see a number of little donkeys with two or three bags of grain on their backs or a load of wood, aud behind all a big Mexican sitting. Then you will see six or eight ox teams, four or six oxen to every wagon hauling adobies or terronies, wood or timber, then you will see a span of fine horses, silver mounted harness, and as fine a car riage as you would see in New York Park. Here is a fine hotel three stories high, tbe American flag flying in the breeze ; inside you will meet as fine gentlemen and ladies as you can find in any hotel in the east. Close bv are the little adobe gambling saloons where scores of men sj>end their nights and money playing cards, dancing and drinking whiskey, aud where they think little of shooting at each other, yet tbev tell me that Albuquerque is improving fast in its moral tone. I spent last week at Las Vejras, one hundred and thirty miles east of this place. The Presbytery of Santa Fe met there. It took us three days to get through with our work. The brethren made me moderator, and while I objected to such honors being conferred on a tenderfoot, a name giv en to all who come to the territorv by rail, the old American having come bv trail, yet I found that they did the best thing, as the business was all done both in English and Spanish. This was necessary as one half of the mem bers were Mexicans and could not un derstand English. I could neither un derstand Spanish nor speak it, still I could put the motions, and listen to the debates, many of which were fully discussed before the motion would be seconded, a thing I would not have al lowed for a moment had I known what they were saying. I preached twice during my stay at Las Vegas to good congregations, and on Monday I visited the famous Hot Springs of Las Yegas. They are at an altitude of 6,400 feet. They number twenty-two, and vary in temperature 110° to 140° F. Prominent gentlemen in Boston have purchased the Hot Springs of Las Vegas and have built a bath house, 200x42 feet, two stories in height; it is most complete of any thing of the kind in America ; it has shampooning rooms, electro and vapor rooms, spray and tub baths, coolina: and drying rooms, together with a fine hotel which make the Hot Springs of Las Vegas a lovely resort in summer and delightful in winter. But I find that lam writ ing more than you may want to pub lish in your paper, so for the present I will say no more. Yours truly, JAS. A. MENAUL.
