vas stopping al tho same hotel. On Sunday,
tbs Western man, being dosirous OF hearing
several OF the more famous pulpit orators Of
the metropolis, went in the morning 10 Dr.
Chapiu's church, hut heard q stranger preach
from thStext "Bnt Simon's wlfs's mother
lay sick Of fever" Iu the afternoon he
went TO Bsscher's Plymouth Church, and

hearer Of the thrice-told dscourse was oross-
ing to Brooklyn in u ierry-boat, when the

Musical INSTRUMENTS. There is a feeling
/ generally among persons about TO purchase
musical instruments, that were they in Phila-
delphia or New York, they could select from
a number Of instruments a better Piano or
Cabinet Organ than they can buy from an
agent Mason 4 Hamlin, in order to meet
this feeling, have ESTABLISHED number of
larger agencies, where they keep large mum
Der Of organs of the various styles, SO that
persons can have the same advantages in buy
ing that they could IN the cities or at the

these larger agencies, and keeps constantly
on hand a variety of the various styles of
Cabinet Organs, from which persons wishing
can make as good selection as we're they in
Philadelphia or Pittsburgh thereby saving
the freight from either of those places, as his
prices are precisely the same as in Philadel-
phia or in Pittsburgh, or the Mandatory,
Boston.
A player is at the store room constantly,
who viii perform on the instruments, and
exhibit their various powers and qualities,
show the different stops and their combina-
tons, and explain their internal construc
tions.
also keep on hand fine selection, Of Pi-
amos from the celebrated manufactures of
Steinway 4 Sons, New York, and Gaehle &
Goa, Baltimore, which sell ct Factory pri-
ces.
Persons ordering an Organ or Piano by let
ter are assured that as good an instrument
will be sent as if they were here to select it
personally, the subscriber eonsi deriug him
self bound by honor and interestto select and
forward none other than the re,y best of the
style ordered The subscriber is anxious to
put into the hand of every one, whether they
intend purchasing an instrument or not, a
copy of the Cabinet Organ Circular, which
contains vast amount of interesting musi cal
information, and viii send free, postpaid, a
copy to any one desiring it.

A New BoGus W4TCH DoDGE.--An indi-
vidual giving his name as William Smith,
made his appearance in South Woodberry
township, on Monday or Tuesday of last week,
who represented, in most pitiable terms, that
he was without money, and that he desired to
visit an uncle residing in the upper end of the
county, and to enable him to raise funds suf-
fcient to take him to the uncle aforesaid, he
proposed to pledge gold watch valued at
S125, for S25, which he promised to return
and redeem as soon as he reached the resi-
dence Of his uncle, aud secured the necessary
money, which would not exceed four or five
days at farthest. He prevailed upon several
parties in South Woodberry and Bedford
townships to accept his stories of poverty and
distress, and for their Greenbacks he turned
over bogus watch, worth, at the outside
cent, FIVE dollars. In one case he succeeded
in getting S25 advanced; he then noticed that
a member of the family had a new American
lever watch, valued at $50, which he deib-
erately asked him to loan him, until he would
return, stating that he could not well do with
out a time peace. OF course both man and
watch will only return in the stropg grasp of
the law if ever either returns. His rascality
was discovered few hours afterwards, and
pursuit commenced. He was followed from
the neighborhood of Enterprise, through St.
Clairsville, he, apparently, travelling very
rapidly, offering his bogus watches at every
house along the way. into Dutch Corner, and
from there into Bedford, where he stopped at
Tue Washington Hotel, registering his name
as N. K. Swartz On Thursday morning, be-
lore the parties in pursuit had discovered his
Whereabouts, he took the six o'clock coach
'or Caambersburg. Telegrams were sent
ah cad to put the officers of the law on
ms track, but when the scoundrel reached
