Yesterday evening, after which he opens
in Mifiintown for four nights, to which
place all letters must be addressed. $500
can be earned each month. This is cer-
tainIy a chance seldom offered. The Fa-
kir refers to the citizens of Pittsburg,
where he performed five weeks ago to
crowded houses, clearing 81 800 in two
weeks.) Also, to the residents of Green's
burg, Johnstown, Harrisburg, Lancaster,

SrABBING AFFRAY.-An alteration
occurred in Smiths beer house on Satur-
day night, which resulted in the serious
stabbing with knife of Calvin Brought,
lust below the heart, the cutting of Dar-
by Hayes across the thigh, and some scor-
ing on the back of Charles Phillips, all
which is reported to have been done by
Cornelius Feely. The dispute arose be-
tween Hayes and Phillips, and young
Brought was stabbed while attempting to
part them. AS the whole matter will un-
dergo a judicial investigation, and the
paucity of witnesses rendering correct
account next to impossible, we deem it
unnecessary to say more at this time than
that Feeley and Hayes are in Jail.
MUsICAL.-The County Musical Asso-
ciation held its monthly meeting at Nc
Veytown, on Tuesday last. The evening
session was largely attended. The next
gathering will take place in May, at or

lied in the county, auxiliary to the main
stem.

the ingredients, recommends their gener-
al use, - is for sale at Groves, where every
thing else useful and ornamental that is
new, is sure to be found.
