THE POTATO BUG.-As the period
for this troublesome insect to begin its
devastations is near at hand, we call
attention of farmers to the following
remedies, which have been tried and
pronounced highly successful:
1st. Take half bushel of saw dust
and pint of coal Oil; mix well, and
SOW broadcast over the potato hills.
Repeat the dose if the bugs make their
appearance at any subsequent period.
ID. Make weak brine of common
salt and water; sprinkle the brine on
the vines after sunset; but take care
not to put on too much, or the tops
will wilt.
Either of the above remedies will
drive off the potato bug dering the en-
tire season.

DANGEROUS COUNTERFEITS.-
terfeit 800 National bank notes are in
circulation. They are exceedingly well
executed, and will deceive the MAORI

The engraving is very fine, and the
printing as perfect as it could be done.
These notes are on the Central Nation
al Bank of New York, and on the
Ohio National Bank of Cincinnati.
Twenty bills altered from fives
on the First National Bank Of Boston
are also in circulation.

so elongated, that the price of shaye

TRY AGAIN.-The Inquirer, of the
9TH inst. endeavored to slur the gal
liant Democratic soldier, Gen Hancock,
by referring to him as having taken a
conspicuous part in the court martial
that tried and condemned Mrs. Surratt.
Now, the editors of that delectable
sheet either knew that they were pub
fishing deliberate falsehO0ds, which
they could easily palm off on their
readers as truth, or their knowledge of
recent events is sadly deficient. We
are charitable enough to suppose that
the former is the case. Gen. Hunter, a
Radical of the deepest, darkest hue,
and not Gen. Hancock, was President
of the court martial. The latter was
not even member of the court, but at
the time of the trial was in command
of the troops in the Middle Military
Division" which comprised the Dis
trict of Columbia, Maryland, Delaware,
Pennsylvania, w. Virginia, and part
of old Observation-Disclosures at
Washington, and had to obey such
military orders as the President saw
proper to make in the case.

THE modesty of the "fghting" edi-
tor of this paper, were he at home,
would prevent the following fattering
notice, from the Bedford county Press,
from being copied into this paper, but,
regardless of consequences, "ye lOcaP'
takes the responsibility of doing so.
PROMOTED F. Meyers, Esq, for
twelve years past editor of the Bedford
Gazette, has purchased a controlling in
terest in the Patriot & Union, a daily
Democratic journal published at Har-
risburg. The Patriot d Union is a
journal of considerable pretensiOns and
influence, and being published at the
capitol of the State is regarded as the
central organ of the Democratic party
in Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Meyers is political writer of no
ordinary calibre, and the GAZETTE hav-
ing greatly improved under his control,
we know the Patriot and Union will be
considerably invigorated by this addi-
tiOn to its editorial corps. He will
still retain his interest in the GAZETTE,
and after the close of the twelfth vol
ume, August under his supervision,
it will be enlarged to an eight column
paper, making it among the largest
Weeklies published in the State. Z.

forget that JIOrning Patriot is the name

which Mr.. NJ. has controlling inter-

THE WHEAT CROP of Bedford cOun-
ty, from present appearances, will be
very heavy. Since the introduction of
grain drills, the crop has increased in
proportion to the number ofdrills used.
We are informed that the fields seeded
by the Willoughby Gum Roller Drills
are more evenly covered and will
yield more grain to the acre than those
put out by any other process. Every
farmer should own a Gum Roller

IMPORTANT TO FTsHERs.-An old
fisherman states that if man wants
to catch fish whenever he visits the
river, let him not pick the full moon
days to do it in. He gives a philoso-
phical reason for the advice-whether
sound or not we cannot decide. He
says, when the moon is full, the nights
being bright, enables the fish to do all
their foraging in the night time. OF
course, having their wants supplied,
they lie up all day, and consequently
their is a scarcity of "bites." Under
a new-moon season, the fish have to
sleep at night, and work by day; and
that makes the length in the fisher
mans string.

profits of jobbers and middlemen, give US ad-
vantages in purchasing at the lowest rates,
SHARED BY NO HOUSE IN OUR TRADE.
We sell only for cash and having no losses from bad
debts to provide for, the paying customer is not
TAXED TO RELP PAY TIE DEBT OF ANOTHER who
does not pay, as is inevitably the case in bust
ness where credit is given.

which, with long experience enable us to man
ufacture garments SUPERIOR IN EVERY RES

HYDROPHOBIA.-We see by our eX-
changes that numerous mad dogs have
already been killed; and in some places
systematic onslaught has been made
upon the whole canine species, by the ci-
vii authorities. The Philadelphia
Ece7aiRg star says the best application
for the bite of a dog is spirits of harts-
horn, and this should be applied wheth-
er the animal appears rabid or not
Medical observation shows that about
one person in twenty, bitten by mad
dogs become hydrophobic. AS the
hydrophobia season is now at hand,
the public should be reminded that a
dog ought not to be Immediately kill
ed if he has bitten person, although
he may appear to be mad, because such
animals, when allowed to become quiet
and composed, have often returned to a
perfectly quiet and natural condition,
and thus the mind Of the person bitten
has been saved from most terrible fore
bOdings.
DESTROYED BY FIRE.-We were sor-
ry to learn Of the destruction by fire, on
Wednesday last, the house of Mr.. Abra-
ham Shaffer, of West Providence town
ship, with all its contents except bu-
reau and few other articles that are
oflittle value. The family were all alb
sent at the time, except a servant girl
of about twelve years of age, that was
left churning. Shortly after the depar-
ture of the family, the servant girl Wis
tied a near neighbOr, ard when arri-
wing there, she looked back up
on the house she had just left and be-
held it in flames.
Mr.. Shaffer is a young man, of indus
trious habits and most that he had ac-
cumulated was the result of hard Ia
Dor, which makes the loss severely felt
by him. This is the third house de-
strOyed by fire in that neighborhoOd,
within quite recent period, which gives
room to suspicion an incendiary has
been at work tn ere.
Loss about $600.00. No ins urance.-

MASONIC DEMONSTRATIONS THE
laying of the corner stone Of the Ma
sonic Temple on Broad street, in the
city of Philadelphia, on the 24th OF
June, will be the grandest Masonic
ovation on record. Eight thousand
Masons will be in rank, all appearing
in full Masonic dress. The procession
will form on Broad street at eight o.
clock, countermarching almost the Ell
tire length of that magnificent street.
Some twelve of the best bands have
been engaged for the occasion. AT
! high meridian the corner stone will be
laid by Richard VauX, Esq, and an
address delivered by Judge Jones, OF
Reading, the President Judge, at pres
ent, of that Judicial District. The
| masonic Odes will be rendered on the
occasion by two hundred of the best
choristers. A grand banquet will be
given at the Academy of Music in the
evening, where the ceremonies will be
continued, table lodge opened, and
| where speech, song and sentiment will
make the occasion one long to be re-
memberad by the craft.
