Musical. We had the pleasure to
hear and examine the Piano Forte
which Mr. Ely ha recently purchased
of Mr. W. Sherer, of Corry, and admire
its clear, sweet and brilliant bound, ex.
ccllent action and beautiful finish. We
congratulate Mr. Ely in possessing such
tin excellent and durable instrument, ana
would sdvise those wishing to buy a
trst-class instrument, to examine this
piano, as we believe Mr. Sherer to be a
trustworthy dealer. See his card in
another column.
Local Brevities -.Dancing Mrs.

ball on Christmas tiiglit. Parties who
go cannot fail to enjoy themselves-
Mr. Schram, of Schraiu's Hotel, at
Brockwayville, is also going to give the

"light fantastic" on New Years.
Rrookville is to have a rare treat during
the iiollidays, in the shape of a theatri.

to charitable purposes. We'wisb. them
every success. G. C. Wilson, of the

fast people up in Brookville. They
have a gymnasium, a ' theatre, three

clubs, and about thirty taverns and ta

two years while any other town in the
State lives one. Brigham Young's
forty-fifth wife died lately. Tho ques

1HE SILVER, SKIRT.
MORE DURABLE,
MORE ELASTIC,
MORE GRACEFUL!
And will keep its shape and retain its place
better than any otter Skirt.
This new and beatiful style of Skirt (rat
er.(yl March 7, 1865,) was awarded by the
(treat American Institute Fair, held in New
York, October, 1865, a
SILVER MEDAL,
being the Highest Premium ever given for
a Hoop Skirt.
The Steel Springs are wound with fine
plated wire in place of a 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 as new.
The Combination Silver Skirt
This invention combines with the ordina
ry Skirt the advantages orourfiilver Skirt
tli e bottom hoops are the same as those us
ed in the Silver Skirt, the covering of which
cannot wear off, while the upper ones nrii
covered with cotton. No lady having once
worn one of our Skirts, will be willing to
wear any other, as the lower hoops of all
other kinds are soon injured and soileed.
The best mnteeials are used in their con
struction, and, from their durability and
neatuess they are destined to become a
Favorite Skirt.

ION would add that these premiums
are to be considered only in the light
of a free gift to their patrons, us thu
Eugravings arc furnished them below
their market value, and as the cost of

ed, is very trifling, they can easily afford
to mate tho distribution as large as it is.
We trust that our numerous friend

will uso their utmost exertions, so that
if possible, the distribution may bo
made soon, aud it can be done if they
aro at all active. Ladies havo often
