LOCAL IMPROVEMENTS. - We are
pleased to know that our town is
beginning to develop itself commen-
surate with its capital and the energy
Of its business men. After having
lain dormant for nearly quarter of
a century, the villagers have at last
been awakened. Our population has
increased largely during the past
six months, and would have nearly
doubled had there been houses and
buildings to shelter the population.
Much has been done TO accomplish
this object, but much more remains
to be done Two fine churches, which
will cost the citizens at least $4,000
when finished, are fast approaching
completion. This amount of capital,
in our view, should have been invested
in a good hotel and a steam saw mill,
which would have added largely to
the prosperity Of the town, while
religion could still have fourished in
the old churches. We should have
started the machine in this manner,
viz: Build the railroad, large hotel,
steam saw mill and planning mill,
fifty dwelling houses, one or two good
school houses, and then as many
churches as convenient; after which
the streets should be graded and
paved
While VIC are compelled to condemn
the major portion Of the programme
adopted by our capitalists, we must
not forget to state that Messrs.
Hoops, Weaver & Co. have made a
flank movement, and are adopting a
portion of our programme. They
have purchased the steam planning
mill formerly owned by Mr.. Spaok-
man, have reftted it entirely, and are
|now manufacturing doors, sash, floor

Court came and passed last week
in regular machine style--thc Com
monwealth monopolizing the whole
time, without trying half her cases
The vocabulary used in the Court
room was that employed in the trials
of rape, forgery and perjury; which,
of late seems to be the stock in trade.
These crimes seem to have been sub
stituted for the more refined ones of
of petty larceny and assault and bat
terry We confess another revolution
like this will land us in moral ruin,
with all its concomitants.

J. II Duvau--Dear Sir: We have been running
our mill and engine constantly since We received
It. We are cutting from 5000 to 5000 feet per
day. Everything works splendid. Not journal
heated or anything else gone wrong sinee we
started. We saw oak ard pine logs that are 60
large that our saw won't reach through. The
little engine drives the cav through with a.
apparent ease as though the log was not half so
large. We are quite satisfied that we can cut
200 feet per day.

READY FOR TRAvEL-The new State
road from the Sinnemahoning road to
the turnpike west of Horns shanty,
we are pleased TO state, is now ready
for travel. This new location avoids
Moose hill, and the summit is gained
north of the old shanty before one is
aware Of it, while the distance is less
than one half mile greater. Those
who have assembled aud descended
this enormous hill on the old road so
frequently will be surprised, when
they pass over the new location, to
see how easily the bill has been gain
cd. Both the managers and the con-
tractor are entitled TO praise for the
prompt manner in which they have
competed this work, and our Union
township friends, and those west OF
that section, who have for years
dreaded Moose hill, will not be slow
in awarding them proper praise. This
will be an excellent "winter road"
not liable TO drift, and located on the
north side of the mountain. The new
road strikes the old nearly one mile
west of the shanty, and is just nine
miles from Clearfeld. This makes the
distance from Clearfeld to Arnold S
mill, in Union township, l2l miles,
and to Luthersburg 16! miles. A
two horse team will move eastward,
over the new portion of this road,
1000 feet of lumber with ease.

A TEMPERATE JoKE-A certain land
lord was indicted in our court last week
for selling liquor on Sunday and to

Good Templar on the grand jury, who
led off in several chiefly" speeches
against indicting him, for these small
offences, and finally, after "setting up"
the jury, he succeeded in having both
bills ignored. We respect an open
enemy, but a hypocrite we detest-
