x Badly Scared.-Late on Wednesday
evening as the daughter Of Robert N. Willis
of this borough went to the pump in their
yard for WATER some scamp caught her by
the ankle. Her screams alarmed her faith

in making his escape without getting the
punishment he would have received had he
been caught.

Sudden Deatl.-The Carlisle Herald says,
On Wednesday morning last, the little
village Of Hickorytown, on the Trindle
Spring Road, about three miles east of this
place, was shocked by the announce
ment that Mrs. Jane StouheB q resident
of that place, had been found dead in bed.
The night previous, she had retired about
10 o'clock, apparently in good health, and
had been livelier on Tuesday than usual
She was discovered by her daughter, on
the morning in question. The deceased
is supposed to have had a paralytic stroke,
This sudden death cast gloom over the
neighborhood, as she was woman of eX-
emplary character, and much respected by
all who knew her. The remains were inter-
red in Ashland Cemetery, on Friday last,
attended by large concourse of relations
and friends.

Who does not remember the time when
spring purgation was considered indispens-
able to summer health? Nomatter for wry
faces, the inevitable salts and SIENNA, rhu-
barb, or calomel and jalap, must be admin
istered. These "spring medicines" the
youngsters were told, were to keep them
hale and hearty during the summer. We
all know now that this was q falacy; that
new yigor, not depletion, Is what is re-
quired at the commencement Of the sum-
mer solstice AS preparation for the
enervating effects of oppressive summer
weather, course or Hostetter's Stomach
Bitrers is nightly expedient. This famous
vegetable preparation has three prominent
properties 1t renovates, p1rifes and reg
ulates all the functions Of The body. 1t Is
composed exclusively OF pure vegetable
productions, viz: the essential principle of
Monongahela Rye, and the most efficacious
tonic and Alternative roots, barks and gums
known TO medical botanists. Hence, 1t Is
an absolutely safe medicine. and no tinct-
ure OF the Pharmacoppia can compare with
II either in purify, or in the variety OF It's
objects, and It's comprehensive results.
Happily for mankind, the theory that It
was necessary to PROSTATE patient In order
to cure him. Is forever exploded, ana the
true philosophical doctrine, that vigor Is
the great antagonist of disease, has taken
its place. Hostetter's Btters is an invigo-
rant, and hence 1t is the proper medicine
for the feeble at this most trying season OF
the year.
Be sure that you obtain the genuine arti-
Gle, as there are innumeraole vile 1mita-
lions in the market. Look to the ornamen-
tai stamp, the engraved label, and the name
blown into the glass. HOstetter's stomach

WE understand that VIM. g. Brown
will make speeches in Preston county
against the Convention. If he makes
such speeches as he made in his cam
paign in 1868. we hope he will speak
every day and every night. Radicalism
in the DAYS OF its vigor could stand a
great deal; but it never could have
stood the speeches of this speechist.
His speeches destroyed the Democratic
party of Preston and Monon'
gala counties. He's like a chicken
that's dead in the shell-he cant be
Matched out the party that attempts it
will die before the process of incubation
is at an end. The Democratic party
merely practiced on him while it had
nothing else to do; that party labored
on William, but he couldn't be warmed
into life. He is dead cock in the pit.

WHEELING AND TOLEDO.

The Mansfield, Ohio, papers are urg-
ing the building of the long-talked-of
railroad between Wheeling and Toledo
10y way of Mansfield. With great
deal of quiet energy the Mansfield,
Coliwater and Lake Michigan Rail
road has been determined upon, the
stock subscribed, the road put under
contract and the work commenced, all
within few months past. A road be-
tween Wheeling and Mansfield would
lie merely an extension OF the same
line and would run through section
of country that needs railroad commu-
nication with the Northwest, more than
any other portion of Ohio. 1t seems
strange that railroad has not hereto
fore been built in the direction indica.
ted, for the demand has long existed
and the advantages Of such a road
have long been known. About a
year ago the project was revived
here and created much popular interest,
Lut the report of the Civil Engineer
concerning the probable cost of the
Wheeling end of the road seemed to
completely discourage our people and
compel the, temporarily at least, aban-
donment of the whole scheme. The
route up Indian Wheeling creek was
most carefully surveyed as far as Den
Dison on the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and
st. Louis railroad, and it was found that
a railway upon that route would cost
such a sum per mile as to be away
beyond the reach Of the parties inter-
ested.
The probability is that, at some fu-
ture time, the project will be revived
under more favorable circumstances
and successfully put through. For the
present, however, it is scarcely worth
while TO discuss the matter here. Il

The expenses of the city government
Of New York are often referred to by
Radical writers as an example of Dem
ocratic prohigacy and extravaganza.
The truth is, however, that New York
CITY, under Democratic control is one OF
the most economically governed cities
in the United States. Its streets, docks,
public buildings and works Of various
kinds for public benefit are better than
those Of any other city on the continent
and its rate OF taxation less per capita
than that OF many others. Take, for
instance, the two Republican cities OF
Pennsylvania, Philadelphia and Pitts
burgh. The taxation per capita in
Philadelphia is 81; that in Pittsburgh
is So; while that in New York is $34.
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh are both
governed by rings" before whose power
for rascality Boss TWEED and Tam
many pale their Intellectual fires.

Convention I'm Summers.

On the 18th instant there was a large
and enthusiastic Convention meeting
held in Summers, at the church, near
the residence OF Rev. RUFUS Peck,
where court is held. The church was
filled and large number of persons
were gathered around the door and
windows.
Major H. NJ. Mathews was first in
troduced to the audience, and addressed
them for an hour.
He was followed by Hon. Frank
Hereford, who, in his usual earnest and
forcible manner, presented the impor-
lance of holding Convention, and con-
sidered at length the objections made to
the measure by its opponents Both
speakers were listened 20 with great at
tention and interest.
Several OF the most active opponents
of the Convention from Monroe were
present, but finding, we presume, that
the tide in Summers was against them,
they determined not to speak.-Border

ACCIDENTALLY KILLED.-We have
been informed of the accidental shoot
ing and killing on Thursday last, OF a
man named Suddreth, who resided on
Laurel creek. in this county, the cir
cunstances attending which are as fol-
lows: The deceased and companion
(both blacksmiths) in whose hands the
gun was at the time OF the cad occur
renee, had inst gone into their shop
and the former commenced work, when
the latter picked up his rifle, put II on
his shoulder, and was in the act oil
passing out at the door when the ham
mer OF the gun caught on a fragment Of
wood suspended from the top sill OF the
door. thereby discharging its contents,
which lodged in the abdomen Of Mr..
Suddreth, producing almost instant
death.
A SAD AFFRAY.-A Worthy Citizen o.
Lswisburg Seriously IStabbsd.-On Mon
day evening the third inst, a difficulty
occurred in front of the hotel Of Messrs.
Cabell & Vanmeter, in this place, be,
tween our worthy townsman, Mr..
FLOYD Estill, and Mr.. Joseph Jarrett,
citizen Of Muddy creek, in this county,
in which the former received a very
serious wound in the left breast from a
knife in the hands Of Mr.. Jarrett. The
particulars, as near as we can learn
them, were as follows: Mr.. Estill pre-
sented claim to Mr.. Jarrett, the cor
rectness of which the latter disputed,
and called Mr.. E. id liar, which
was resented with blow of the fist or
slap of the hand, by Mr.. E., a very
delicate man, whereupon, Mr.. Jarrett
plunged knife, which it is supposed he
had in his hand at the time, into
Mr.. E., inficting an ugly wound
closely approximating the locality Of
the heart. Drs, c. n. Austin and Sam
uel C. Beard were at once summoned to
attend the unfortunate gentlemen, who
after dressing his wound, directed him
to be removed to his residence, where
he at present lies in suffering con-
dition.
Mr.. Jarrett was Immediately arrested
by Deputy Sheriff Knight and taken
before the Mayor, who required of him
security in the sum Of $1,000, for his
appearance to answer an indictment at
the next term OF the Circuit Court,
Messrs. D. J. Ford, Austin Handley and
William Arthur Anderson becoming his
sureties.
