AM Old Citizen Gone

A. w. Armstrong, an old and highly
esteemed citizen of this county, died at his
residence, six miles east of the city, yes
terday morning, at the advanced age of 70
years. Mr.. Armstrong was a native of
this county, brother to the late Col.
Drury P. and James III. Armstrong. He
was a good citizen, true man, and a
Christian gentleman. We do not suppose
he had an enemy in the world. His heart
was full of charity, and his whole life
marked by efforts to do good to his fellow
man. He will be buried to-day at Spring
Place burial ground, and the grave will
close over all that was mortal of Addison W.
Armstrong. May the sod rest gently upon
him, while his memory and good deeds
will forever be fresh and green in the re-
collection of all who knew him. Peace to
his memory. fa

NCOrn Whisky.-On Saturday evening Mr.
Ed. Miller arrived in town with keg con-
tanning twelve gallons of whisky, which he
concluded to leave in his wagon until after
he got his supper. By that time however,
some one had removed it for him, and he
felt bad about it, as he said he had bought
it to give his friends.
On Sunday the peculiar movements of
some young fellows attracted the attention
of Mr.. Henry Rice and the consequence was
he found where the keg was hid in his
corn field. Three gallons of the stuff was
missing at the time. Towards evening the
buzzing around of certain chaps, when
they learned that the keg had been moved,
was very amusing. AS Mr.. Miller bought
the whisky, he says for the purpose of
giving to his guests and friends, Gt is as
tonishing how liberal some people are, he
ought to feel grateful to them for taking it
without giving him the trouble of dealing
it out.

Don't do it.-Some of our subscribers
complain that postmasters are demanding

They have no right to make any such de-

advance if they prefer so to do, and we
advise them not to pay for more than six
months (ten cents,) until it is seen if some
change will not be made in the law
Postmasters who demand years postage
in advance exceed their authority.

"John S. Burd and VIM. Berrer of
Perry county were mulcted in $500 dam
ages for deposting sawdust in a stream SO
as to render the water unfit for use and de-
stroying the fish in the stream. In the
same court John Strouse and Irvln Nailor
of Millerstown were each fined $40 90 and
costs for driving horse to death. About
$50, 90 fine we presume would be the pen
atty in Perry county for deliberate mur-
der.
