New Publication.

DIR. Hitchcock's $ new and complete Anal
ysis of the Holy Bible. The Bible is unlike
any other book. II must be studied in a
peculiar manner, because each part of it
is connected with every other part. Hence
we must compare all passages in it togeth-
er in order to get the full knowledge we
ought to upon the great and important
principles set forth in the divine word.-
The arrangement of Dr. IItchcock's analy-
sis is such that we can with the least pos
sibe labor compare scripture with scripture
and make it it's own interpreter. 1t is
methodically and logically arranged. Let
any one who has been in the habit of read
ing the Bible by course, try the anylatical
Bible, and they will soon he convinced of
its great superiority over the common ar
ranged Bible. 1t will certainly create an
interest in Bible reading in all families who
secure copy. Agents will in short
time call upon the citizens of Perry coun-
ty and give them chance to examine the
the work, and judge for themselves. We
hope very many families in this county will
avail themselves of this opportunity, and
secure treasure. We append the follow
ing testimonials;

< Newport Items.--Prof. M. f. Bretz and
wife were serenaded on Saturday night last,
by the Newport Germania Band" After
few tunes were played, the Professor came
to the door to invite the baud and his
friends in to partake of the refreshments
prepared for the occasion. He was taken by
surprise by Mr.. w. Scott Dunbar stepping
up with handsome Britannia tea set, and
making the following presentation speech !:
Mr. NJ. T. Bretz--In behalf of the Newport
GeTmania Band, present you this small token in
appreciation of your worth as well as the unset
fish motive that at all times has actuated you in
support OF the interests OF our organization, |
need not refer to your self sacrifice and untlr
ing devotion for the benefit of our band while
an active member, because the services render
ed,and the advantages obtained by your assistance
are patent to all you will please accept this me-
mentO from the band, which we trust mot on ac
count Of its intrinsic value but as token Of our
regard for yOu) will be received as an acceptable
gift from the hand Of your fellow members; and
as you have taken unto yourself wife-knowng
heartfelt desiTe Of the members Of the Newport
Germania Band that your pathway may always
be strewed with the choices blessings OF life, not
forgetting that life Is struggle, and remembering
that many ''barks have been wrecked" on the
rocks of dissentiOn. But may your hearts beat
In unison. and may your life be as day dream.
To which Mr.. Bretz replied as follows:
Fellow Comrades and Members of the Germania
Band:-I feel that 1t Is utterly impossible for me
under the circumstances to thank you in q man
ner fitting the occasion, for the handsome compi-
ment you have paid me, and which was so entire
ly unexpected find that there are no words at
my command and 10 sentiment at my control
that can in any fitting manner express my graft
tude, and my feelings upon this OCCASION We
have been associated together for the past hfteen
years as a musical organization; and during that
time we have had so many occasions OF Joy, so
many pleasant Incidents so much worthy of being
rat an1h w N n
on the past, and feel encouraged with hope for q
still brighter future. II is true that upon some oc-
casOns hard feelings may have been engendered,
for moment slight misunderstanding occurred,
and sweet harmony was wrecked. But better feel
ings soon prevailed and some sweet old air rem
dered in your usual brilliant style has brought up
memories of "Aud Lang Syne," and soon restored
our usual harmony In behalf of my lady and my
self, tender you sincerely and truly our most
profound thanks I'VE accept 1t not so much for
It's intrinsic value as for the friendship IL pro-
notes, and the pleasant memories i will hallow;-
Upon all occasions we tender you the hospitaties
Of our home, and especially do we welcome you
this evening.

Rail Road Meeting.

On the 28th inst, there was held at Blain,
meeting of the President and Directors of the
South Pennsylvania r. r. Company, at which
proceedings were had, which we hope will have
the effect to arouse the people of Perry to ad-
ditional efforts to secure the success of this i'm
portant enterprise.
The meeting was called to order at 3 2. NJ,
by George Hench, Esq, of Center, aud on mo-
tion, Capt Gutshall was called to the Chair,
and David Moreand was made Secretary. The
President, Col. James Worrall then addressed
the meeting, urging the necessity of further
effort OH the part of the people of the county,
and assuring them that If they exhibited an
earnest disposition to help themselves, foreign
help would not be wanting. He discussed at
length, the subject of routes, expressing very
decidedly. his preference for the present route,
but declaring as decidedly that this was ques-
tion for the people of the county, and that they
must decide which they would choose. He in
formed them very candidly that they could
more readily obtain foreign help for the route
by Bloomfield, but in that case, narrow gauge
was prescribed which would necessarily make
the road forever a branch. He proposed-in
case the route along sherman's Creek was
chosen - to accommodate Bloomfield by
branch from Gibson's Rock.
After Col. Worrall, j. NJ. Mcclure, Esq, of
Harrisburg, followed with remarks upon the
necessity and benefits of a Railroad through
Perry county, and the duty of the people of the
County " hnAe u'oiy OAOi'o. w eSSr0 ""o

Altogether the meeting was pleasant, and
we hope profitable one.
Thepeople of Perry can have a railroad If
they viii work together and devote even mo-
dicum of time, attention aud means to secure
il. As to routes there can be no doubt about
the superiority Of the present one as a through
line, but II we can only have feeder to the
Pennsylvania Central, then undoubtedly the
line from -Duncannoh or Bailey's. by way of
Bloomfield on up the main valley Is the most
feasible, and the one which will prove con-

Dead Wilson Shearer the young man
who had his arm almost torn off by a
threshing machine nearly two months since
died on Thursday evening. 1t seems that
u change had been made in the medical at
tendance, and the new physician, so we are
told took, off the compress and directed the
moving of the arm, and the result was a
hemorrhage which caused death.

Suicide. .--On thursday morning last, Hen
ry Troutman, a resident of Jupiata town
ship, committed suicide by hanging.
He had eaten aVhearty breakfast, and
went out to the barn, where he was shortly
after found. 1 When discovered, the body
was yet warm, but by the time the alarm
was given, and help had arrived. it was too
late to orecuscitate him. The deceased was
subject to occasional spells of insanity, and
was undoubtedly suffering from one of
these attacks at that time. An inquest
was held by Coroner Clemson, and ver-
dict rendered to that effect. aUI
