CoURT.-The indications are that
the regular ferai of court next week
will be a slim affair. The criminal
list is exceedingly snlall-for which
the taxpayers can be thankful-whiie
the civil list does not show large a.
mount of business. So mote it always
be.
NoTIcE-AIl persons knowing
themselves indebted to me either by
note or book account are requested to
call and settle soon, as I need money,
and money / must have. Those who
give this their immediate attention will
confer great favor, and those who
neglect complying with this, my re-
quest, can blame only themselves il
costs are added. Please remember this
and do as you wish to be done by.

Too PooR TO TAKE a NEWSPAPER
The poorest man to be met with, es-
peeia;ly in these stirring times, is the
man who is too poor to take news
paper. We pity such man, especial
ly if he is man OF property. Who
ever heard of man too poor to smoke
or chew tobacco, if addicted to either
habit ? And yet men who spend from
fifteen TO twenty-five cents a day for
''the weed" are too poor to take a
newspaper, in the intellectual enjoy
ment of which their families might
participate. Really such men are poor.
They are objects of pity.

AS usual the house was crowded TO
overhowing. The lecture was pro-
nounced an able effort by all who were
fortunate enough to hear it. Bedford
must have popular lecturers, or the
subject of temperance must be eiieiting
more than ordinary interest, for we
never knew a series of public meetings
in this place that drew such houses.
GROUND Hoe DAY.-Last Wednes-
day the End inst, was ground hog
day. and, as the day was bright and
clear, that prophetic animal no DOUBT
saw his shadow, if he emerged from
his hiding place at all. According 10
tie CID old notion we are to have cold win
try weather for six weeks from that
time. Since the End the weather has
been as fair as was ever seen in this
latitude in winter, but at the present
writing-Tuesday morning-we have
a three foot snow, and still falling The
'ground hog sign" will not be fail
ure, after all, we think.
Cleansing the Blood" upon which
chayIatans have harped so much, is
not mere catch-word and delusion.-
