New Firm. We learn that a new
linu to be known us Little, Sclioening
& Co., has gone into business at Centre

gentlemen of known worth and ability,
and are worthy of a good share of the

C! it and. Have you been to sec
l'owell's new goods yet ? If you have

really a splendid stock. His clerks are
accommodating and obliging, and he is
selling off his goods at fabulously low
prices. Go and seo for yourselves, aud

Say A meeting was held in the Court
Honsc on the afternoon of Sunday the
liOth mst, to consider the propriety of
establishing a cunday school in conucc
tion with " Grace Church"; and it be
ing resolved that it was expedient and
proper to establish a Sunday school uu
uer the auspices of the church as pro
posed, an organization was affected by
electing Hon. Henry Souther, Superin
tCDdent, and Grove G. Messenger, Li
brarian.
The first session will be held in the
Court House next Sunday (Dec. 2d) at
2 o'clock, P. M., when a general atten
d.itiv-e not otily of hc children, but of
all interested in the Sunday School

It is proposed to furnish a new Libra

The Histoiiy of Elk County.
With the present number closes this in
teresting little work. Numerous inqui
rics have been made to know if it would
pny us to put into book form. We
have gave the subject some thought and
have arrived at the conclusion that it
won't pay, unless we should charge a
pretty high price per copy ; and unless
we could dispose if at least 800 copies, it
would not pay then. We, however, are
willing to mako I ho effort, provided we
get proper cncouruirement from some of
our leading citizens. Reside what the
author has written, we would add to it a
map of Elk county, a list of unseated
lands, with names of owner and warran.
tec, a business directory ot the county,
&c., with other valuable information
which would be useful to everybody.

This new and beatiful style of Skirt (Pat
ched March 7, 18U5,) was awardid by the
(i rent American Institute Fair, held in New
York, October, 1805, a
SILVER MEDAL,
being the Highest Premium ever given for
a Hoop Skirt.
The Steel Springs arc wound with fino
plated wire in place of n cotton covering
which will not wear off or become soiled,
and the whole skirt may be woshed without
injury or fear of rusting, and will be' as
good ns new.
The Combination Silver Skirt
This invuntiou combines with the ordina
ry Skirt the advantages or our Silver Skirt
the bottom hoops are the same as those us
ed in tho Silver Skirt, the covering of which
cannot wear otf, while the upper ones am
covered with cotton. No lady having onoc
worn one of our Skirts, will he willing to
wear any other, as the lower hoops of all
other kinds are soon iujurod and soilced.
The best mnteeials are used in their con
struction, and, from their durability aud
neatness they are destined to become a
