Pocket DictiOnary.-We have just re-
ceived from the publishers, 1873 and 140
Grand Street, copy of Webster's Pocket
Dictionary, which is n great improvement
over all previous editions and all similar
works. In the first place it is neatly print
ed. and bound in morocco, with gilt edges.
Then it contains 200 pictorial illustrations,
which give much clearer idea of the mean
ing of many words than could possibly be
conveyed by the usual definition. The
little volume, while being no larger than an
ordinary pocket-book, embraces in its vo-
cabulary careful selection of over 1S, 900
of the most important words of the lang
uage, with definitions sufficiently clear,
though necessarily brief, to meet the ordi-
nary wants of any one requiring it's use.
Pretixed to the work are tables of money,
weight and measure, Authorizations, words
and phrases from foreign languages, rules
for spelling, explanations, etc. 1t is in
fact a most valuable little book, and is
doubly worth the dollar it costs. The
Publishers, Ivison, Brakeman, Taylor &
Co., 1873 aud 140 Grand Street, New York,
will forward it by mail on receipt of One
Dollar. Itcan be bought at almost any book
store.

Accident on the n. c. r. .R.-Tho Mia

Accident on the No Z. *. R.-The Mag
ara express which left Harrisburg on Tues
day evening ran Off the track near Colds
boro while running at a good speed. The
accident was caused by the breaking of a
rail. AT the place where the accident oc-
cured the embankment is about 10 feet
high and several of the cars went down the
bank and slid on the ice where they laid
on their sides. The escape of the passen-
gers was truly remarkable, none of them
being seriously hurt. One of the hands,
baggage master, was thrown into the
water, and remained there sometime before
he was removed, and was then found to be
badly hurt The night was dreadful cold
aud the suffering of the passengers from
the weather was quite severe. But little
delay was caused to travel, by the accident,
but friend of ours passing the next day
saw the cars still ON the river.

Fires in Cumberland and Franklin.-The

Fires in Cumberland and Franklin.-The
house of Edwin Noll, about one mile east
of Shiremanstown, on the line of the Cum
land Valley railroad, was entirely destroy,
ed by fire on Wednesday morning last. The
building is supposed to have been set on
fire by the engine attached to the third
freight train east, which had just passed.
The wind was blowing quite gale, and all
efforts to save the building were fruitless.
On Friday morning the 1st inst, the
store of f. Eden, in Waynesboro', was
discovered to be on fine, and before it was
extinguished keg of powder exploded,
knocking out the windows, and damaging
the goods in the store-room. Fortunately
the fire was put out before other buildings
were damaged
AT Mechanicsburg on Wednesday after
noon last, fire broke out in the warehouse
belonging TO Mr.. George Koser on the South
side of the Railroad track, which soon
destroyed the building and its contents, and
then communicated to Stayman & Bucher's
warehouse on the North of the track /; but
that was extinguished before much damage
was done. The buildings adjoining the
warehouse were on fire several times, but
by great exertion the flames were got un-
der control before they had destroyed any
other buildings except Mr.. Titzel's stable.
For time it was feared that the disaster
would be more serious.

/ On Strike.-The striking apparatus of
the Court House clock needs reconstructing
AS it is, it comes the nearest to perpetual
motion of anything we know of. A few
nights since it struck 240 without stopping,
and it is no unusual thing for it to strike
90 TO 100. In the condition it now is, it is
no credit to the manufacturer, and the fact
is that the striking part of the clock never
has been as perfect as it should be.

%Small-Pox.-- We are sorry to sec that
several citizens of Newport are, suffering
with smallpox. The borough authorities
have taken vigorous measures to prevent
any spread of the disease, should it ex-
tend. AS precautionary measure the
schools have been temporarily closed. 1t
is to be hoped that the sickness may be
confined to the cases already reported.
There is no truth in the assertion
that there are some cases Of smallpox in
Centre twp, and we think the cases near
est to this borough are in Juniata twp,
nearly four miles distant. Every parent
or Guardian who has not already done so,
should at once see that not only themselves
but every person under their control is at
once vacenated.

has set an example which little York has
felt bound to follow. There being a chance
of bill passing the Legislature author
izing new audit of the County Accounts
for some years past, the "ring" evidently
became alarmed, and have taken pattern
after the "ring thieves of N. Y, and
have stolen the vouchers. The York
Press of the 8th inst, gives the following
account of the affair
"The Clerk of the County Commission
ers, on Wednesday afternoon, in opening
the case in their Office, in the Court House,
in which are kept the bills and vouchers,
on which orders for the payment of money
have been granted, discovered that those
FOR the years of 1865, SO, '67, '68, go,
20, and n, were missing having been
,abstracted 10y some person or persons un-
known. We understand that immediate
action will be taken to discover the perpe-
traitors of this high-handed outrage. Va
rious conjectures in regard to the matter
are expressed, and we most heartily de-
nounce the vilainous acts and hope that
the guilty culprits will be speedily dscov-
cred and punished to the full extent of the
law. The general impression prevails
that the act was done by, or at the instance
of persons who feared the investigation of
our public accounts, that is soon to take
place, and like the ruling spirits of the
New York Tammany ring, have destroyed
the records to save themselves from being
exposed. Should there be any further de-
velopments made in regard to the matter
we will keep our readers advised of the
whole transaction. A full investigation
should be had and if there are any persons
found guilty, let them be made suffer for
their crimes. Though the heavens may
fall, let justice be done.
A rumor is afoat that a large number of
papers have been burned at Herman Hoke's
lime kiln, in West Manchester township,
and Judging from the relics or ashes of
the same, it would appear that they were
the lost papers belonging to the county"
