EFFECTs OF GROWING roo soon.

SOMEBODY becoming highly elated over the
Colorado elections, and having no means of
exhibiting his JOY, sent to Bedford for the
Gazette rooster. Accordingly a box was
made and the biped was shipped to Harris
burg-the next day we find him perched at
the top of a eolum in the Patriot growing over
the Ku Klux gains in Maine, Vermont and
Colorado. The desc was too strong, the
effect of which was sudden sickness that
might have terminated III his death had it not
been for the magnanimity of the Telegraph
who borrowed him fer one issue, and finding
him too weak for his biz, discharged him.
The rooster finding himself at liberty, broke
for home and crossing the path Of our coon
was suddenly halted. Just then our special
artist came along and took the above hasty
sketch. He looks bad, aud win look a great.

feed him on Water melons, yeast corks or
something that swells-you ought 30 have him
fat before you hear from the state of South

KU KLUxERs IN BLOODY RUN.-The Sey-
mour and Blair club of Bedford turned up in
Bloody Run on Saturday evening last Not
being able to raise the wind here, they Joined
the rebels of the above place, consolidated
the clubs and had another of their grand
mass meeting fzzles in a room by 10 feet
men, women and children numbering about
nineteen we suppose. Oh what joy-Look
out for the Sarpents for they can't stand the
climate at the Run very long,
DEMOLITION OF CHUEoH.-The old
Catholic church on East street is being torn
down, in order to obtain the brick for use in
the erection of the new church now in pro-
cess of erection. on the corner of Richard
and Penn streets. Workmen have been en-
gagged on the work for week or two past and
the walls are now all down except the east
ern end The chapel along side the site of
the old church is now used for the regular
church services.
The Franklin County Agricultural Fair will
be held on the 9th, 7th, 8th, and 9th, days of
October next at Chambersburg. We find our
all holding their regular Agricul-
tural fairs, but Bedford county seems to have
entirely forgotten all the good resolutions of
last year. We suppose every body is so in
tent upon the election of Grant and Colfax
that there is no time left for looking after
agricultural matters.
FRosT.-0n Friday morning last we had a
genuine visit from jack frost. Owing to the
dense fog that arose shortly after daylight no
serious damage seems to have been done in
the immediate vicinity of the town. Reports
from various parts of the country however,
the damage done as being very
considerable, late corn and garden vegetables
generally having suffered severely.
