New PosrorFIcE.-A postoffice mas oeeh
established at Newburg, Chest township III this
county, called "Hurd,'' and G. Iozer, Jr.,
appointed Postmaster
Roous we have been Informed that petit
t;ons are circulating in this county for the e.
rectipe of boom at Jersey Shore. Persons
Interested win please note the fact.
GoDEY's LADY's BooK.-We have re ceivcd
the March number of this much admired Book
Cooley furnishes more and better engravings
than any other Magazine published. No lady
should be without it.
NoTIcE.-All persons desIrous of obtaining
Tavern Licenses for the ensuing year must ap-
ply at the March Session, and are required by
law to file their petitions 20 days previous to
the Court, so that the applca tions can be ad-
'vertised in the papers times.
NorEwoR Maple Molasses, we'll made
and put up in cans right from the kettle, and
Theoretically sealed, you would can and
seal fruits, will keep when first boiled from
the sap; and this is decidedly the best plan
for keeping, as when made in cakes, if exposed
to the air, it will 10 Sc somewhat of the peculi-
arly delightful flavor for which it is so priced,
and is often injured by insects. All this is
obviated by canning while hot.
How IS IT 7-During the last week or two
the mails have reached this place rather more ir-
regular than usual, for which We cannot fully ac-
count. The Tyrone and Clearfeld Railroad
being completed one-third the distance, the
mails should reach this place at least in the
same time as formerly, but this appears not
TO be the case. We hear many expressions of
disapprobation to the present arrangement, and
we hope the matter will be speedily remedied.
THE GENEsEE FARMER.--The February
number OF this well known agricultural journal
is received. AS we have often said before, the
Farmer is the cheapest and one of tie very
best agricultural and horticultural papers pub
lshed. 1t costs only so cents year, and we
see from this number that the publisher offers
some exceedingly liberal premiums to all who
subscribe for the paper at this time. Speci
men copies of the paper are sent free to all
applicants. Address JOSEPH HARRIS, Roches-
ter, n. Y.
HONE MADE CoFrEE.--Coffee of an excel
lent quality $50 it is said) can be made in the
following manner t.Take one pint of corn |
meal, one pint of wheat, half teacup of mo.
lasses, teaspoonful of salt, and add water to !
make it like dough. Then cut it out like yeast
cakes. Put them in pan and dry them in the
oven. When thoroughly dry, brown them in
the oven to dark brown, nearly black. To
make the coffee, put two of these cakes and
teaspOonful of ground coffee in the coffee pot,
and pour on hot water the same as other cofee.''
A COOP ONE.-We were told a rather good
one in reference to the conductor of the train
on the Cleariield and Tyrone Railroad. Our
informant says that, some days since when 1t
Was showing, s'rhe conductor (whom he repre-
sents as very accommodating walked in front
OF tie train and shoveled the snow off the
Fack-whilst, at the same time, the passengers
were engaged in cutting wood alongside of
the road TO keep up the fires" We do not
exactly credit the story, however, and as our {
lHend is somewhat of wag. We give the |
story only as We received it.
SERIOUS ACCIDEST.-On Monday afternoon I
Thomas McAdams, who is in the employ of
Dr. HilPs, met with a serious accident, whilst Z

some means lost his foot-hold on the sled, ,
Wien the horse became unmanag cable, ran +
