they might get fat and saucy on the
cash system. Our war correspondence,
for instance, during the late rebellion,
cost us over half million in cash.
We could afford it with our cash sys-
tenn; but where would we have been
under the old stupid credit system?
Nowhere. OF all things in the world
newspapers call for the cash system,
and it is always best for buyer and
seller. "Mr. Speaker, once said John

The road has form and substance
the right kind of men have charge of
its interest, and we hope from the rep
utation of their energy and business
capacity-the iron horse will soon greet
the ''Coveites' with its accustomed
shrek, and bring the richest rewards
to such enterprising people. 1t is no
longer 'lCeStlU0rd the star of Empire
takes its way''-but northumberland
we feel hopeful that the road will be
continued on to intersect the Broad
Top at Mount Dallas. 1T will open up
one of the richest agricultural and
mineral sections in the state. Now is
the time for the Bedford people to

of the Directors will be called at once
then look out for dOtCn brakes

PITTSBURGH FEMALE COLLEGE,
We are in receipt of the catalogue of
this sterling Institution. Two hun
dred and ninety-four young ladies have
been in attendance during the past
year, gathered not only from promi-
and influential families in Pittsburg,
but from Philadelphia, in the East, to
Kansas and Nebraska, in the far West.
The Faculty embraces upwards of
twenty picked teachers, selected on ac-
count of their known ability and sue
cessful experience in teachiug. The
course of study is extensive and select
cd with great care. Those who have
attended the examinations at the close
of each term, conducted frequently by
teachers not connected with he Col
Iege, will need no endorsement from
us as to the thorough method of train
ing pursued.
Thorough as is the literary depart
ment, the facilities in the ornamental
branches are unusually fine. Any
brach of thorough solid and orna-
mental education is here taught by eA-
complished teachers. The college may
justly challenge comparison with any
ladies' school in the land.
The building are located in the most
quiet and beautiful part of the city,
and yet within few minutes walk of
all its important centres. Workmen
are busily employed making import
ant Improvements. These improve
ments will soon be completed, and the
College thrown open for the inspection
of visitors. Every private room, and
hall, and schoolroom, will be covered
with carpets and mating. 1t is real
luxury to visit such a school, and our
readers, we doubt not, will appreciate
such effort for the Improvement of
their daughters. Ali honor and sue

Schools. The Fall term will open Sep
