WE notice in certain Journals, that re-
ports are in circulation that immense sums
of money are being collected to purchase
the United States Senator from the coming
Legislature. One Of these Journals, ,the Bel
lefonte Wdtehmaa, published by r Gay
Meek, and ex Democratic member of the
Legislature, states that two hundred and
fifty thousand dcfiars arc held in reserve to
elect Mr. Tower Of SchuyIilifl county.
This reports, no doubt, got up With view
to slanden and if possible to injure Gen.
Cameron, whose reelection is generally
conceded. We regard all such reports as
intended to injure the Republican party.
They are raised to arouee suspicion in the
minds Of the people, and excite 4isafection
in our ranks with q hope of probably sue
c.eding in electing their Candidate. Good
men will frown down all such evil practices
by which the fafr1ame of the State has been
so much impaired The election of United
States Senator by the Legislature in 1878,
will be unattended by fraud and corruption
of any Lind. We have a large Republican
majority that cannot be bought by any man
or clique. There will be men in both
branches who have sufficient courage and
integrity, to expose any attempt that might
be made TO elect a'United States Senator
by corrupt means. Welook forward to q
new state Of affairs in our next Legislature,
. and believe that all attempts at corruption
will be at once frowncd down, and the suil-
ty party brought TO Justice, ifsuch attempt
,should be made. -s.

Our Town Trade.


Positive advancement has been
made in the work ofspecializing trade
in our town. Success has marked
every stage of the movement. The
truth is if we desire to d;ecst our
selves of the character Of a mere
Village, we must abandon the was
of a Village. five desire to attract
the trade of the vast section which
Iaturally finds its commercial center
in Bristol, We must use our capital so
that it will make the gratest impress
ion. No one doubts that our stocks
of general merchandise, are mere du.
plicatcs of each other. They afford
no assortment. fla good article is
wanted. or an unusual article be
sought, it must be sent for, and found
in some distant city. No one, who
has not made the matter a special
study, has any idea of The amount OF
goods purchased away from here for
c4sh and simply because they cannot
be found here. In the last six
months the writer of this, has pur-
chased in the Cities, over 500 of
just such goodsas-ought to be found
here, and which will be found here if
our trade be specialized. The Shoe
business is succeeding. The Hard
ware trade is succeeding, and such
houses are sure to succeed, because
they furnish large assortment to Sc
lect from. The Book Store is a sue.
cess. The Millinery establishments
are a success. The Watch and jew
elry business is a success. The Gun
business is success, and the system
will surely be extended uLtil a stock
of general merchandise will be an i'm
possibility. - ..--- ..-

a thorough examination Of the two
new trains which Gen. Malone has
added to his line. They are the fin
est specimens of Coach work we have

ton. The wheels are made of wood
en- rims bound with steel tires. and
cost each SEQ. The platforms are spa
cious, solid, and on level with the
floor of the Cars. The coupling is OF
the new patented kind, and is self
locking. The usual lest motion and
unpleasant jerking attendant upon the
old coupling is avoided The plat
forms meet and are not separated by
the movement of the tram. The
stoves are constructed with a capa.
cious tank beneath them. This tank
is kept filled with water, and in case

tank is opened by grayitatiOn, and
the water must be immediately pre-,

of the cars is in every way suggestive
of elegance and comfort. Externally
they are models of beauty and of good

to apply to a stoek-jobbing operation.

AN ADRoIT REPROFF.-A President
Elder of the United Brethren Church
was preaching in Minnesota, and was
much annoyed by persons talking and
laughing. He paused, looking at the
disturbers, and said = II am always
afraid TO reprove- those who misbe-
have in church. In the early part of
my ministry made a great mistake.
As was preaching, q young man who
sat before me was constantly laughing,
talking, and making uncouth grina-
ces. paused and administered q Sc
we're rebuke. = After the close of the
service, one of the official members
came and said to me: Brother, you
have made a great mistake. That
young man whom you reproyed is an
IDIOT Since then / have always been
afraid to Teproye, those who misbe-
bave in church, lest should repeat
that mistake and reproye another
idiot" During the rest Of that SER
vice, at least, there was good order.
