A Hint to Coal Burners

Examine well the coal you pur-
chase Almost all coal has bone
in it. In proportion as coal has broad
fiat pieces of a dull, coal dust look, it
is "bony,' and worthless. IT the
Jumps are smooth, and of shiny
black color, and of shape approach
ing to square, that is the sort to buy
even if it does cost little more.

Be Careful

Be Careful
The danger of sleeping in rooms
where gas is generated by coal burn
ing stoves was brought before onr
mind in a forcible manner by an acct
dent which befel Mr. Farler Harbourt
and lady, Of this place, on Sunday
night last. They retired to rest in a
room newly plastered, leaving a large
fire burning in the stove Toward
morning the lady was awakened by
some cause, and apon attempting to
rise found she was unable so to do,
but managed to get upon the floor
where the air was pure. She reused
her husband, and he, in the same con-
dftion, also got upon the floor At
ter some time they recovered strength
enough to move about and find out
the canse of the trouble. Medical
gentlemen attribute the presence of
the gas as much to the new plaster
ing as the stove.

A Pull Back.


We have heard of "things, like
flowers, being nipped in the bud" and
also of " counting chickens before they
are hatched," but we have never had
the absurdity of the last, or the LA
billty of the former, more convincing
ly brought to our mind, than in the
case OF the contemplated parade &C.,
OF the Union Democracy" at this
place on Friday evening last. The
Fusion men counted their chickens to
the number of seuen before they were
Matched, and 10 when the shell came
off they were mo whar." Instead of
the Fusion crow, we hear the slogan
of the Douglas men, and the ring of
the "rail splitters axe.

on his person, but no traces of the
bogus. A search was then made in

quarter dollars, which no doubt were
placed there by the prisoner. An ex-
animation was held before Esquire

knowledge of the spurious articles
found, was sent to Pennington Jail to
await requistion from the Governor
of Pennsylvania for his removal to

Doylestown about ten years ago, since
which time he has been an inmate of
several jails for larceny, counterfeiting

of hotel in Philadelphia, and ist said
to be at the head of an organized

that wicked characters, and charac-
ters wishing 10 do something wicked
will soon learn to keep aloof from oul
town and its effective officers, mas
much as they do not fare vely well
to their liking on their visits. Jersey
Justice will soon be placed on the
