Drunkenness.

Iutemperance, to an alarming extent
seems to pcrvade our town at present,
especially SO far as the boys and young
men are concerned. We have nothing
to say in reference to old and confirmed
drunkards, only to pity the poor fellows,
but something ought to be done to save
the boys and young men of cur town
from confirmed drunkenness. Where
is the Temperance Committee Where
is Local Optioa Is there no remedy
Is there n9 shame to The youth vino are
under the influence of beer or ferment-
ed spirits Of some kind almost every
night, VIII not the girls take it in
hand, aud save the young men from a
crunkard's grave, by forming societies
pledging themselves to shun as they
would the poisonous adder, the society
of every young man who INDUCED in
any kind Of feImented spirits The
experience Of half century has taught
US that almost every one who INDUCES
in any kind of strong drink v lien young,
comes finally to drunkard's end. The
horrors of drunken man in a family
we will not attempt TO depict. We
have no desire to call to mind what has
come under our own observation, but
We advise any young woman who values
life and happiness, and who wishes to
marry, to avoid the company of the
man who speaks lightly of or opposes
Local Option. At all events do not
trust him.

LAST SUNDAY Mrs. BENJAMIN Ken

LAST Sunday Mrs. Benjamin Kep-
ner, of Milford township. attended Mr..
b.ackwelder's church during morning
service. She was accompanied by
grandchlld aged about 5 years, and a
young man, son. On the way home,
a short distance beyonl the lower rail.
road crossing at Patterson, the horse
frightened at child's carriage at the
side OF the road. The young man
sprang oat of the buggy to take the
beast by the tridle. The animal was
too quick for him, eluded his effort to
catch him, wheeled and upsett the buggy,
WHICH was an open one, thereby throw
ing Mrs. kepuer and the child out, and
injurihg them to such degree that
DIR. Banks was called to minister to the
requirements of their injuries. They
were able to go home that evening"
The horse ran off toward Patterson
but short distance, when he turned in
the direction in which he had been
driven, but ran too near the fence, on
which the buggy caught and fastened SO
tightly that the horse cleared himself
OF the harness, but was also caught
before he got far from the spot.
The largest, finest, best and incest
stock of Goods was brought to this
town by Cheap Jehn, from New York
aud Philadelphia, that has come here
for long time, and at such low prices
that IT astonisaes every person how he
can stand 1t; but the way he does is,
he buys his Goods from the mauufac-
turers and importers, and buys every
thing for cash, and thus saves from %
to 90 per cent, which enables him to
sell Goods % to so Per cent. lower
than any other person. Therefore any
body that needs anything whatever IN
his line will save money by buying it at
Cheap Johns Store.
WALKING is all the rage now; 8, II,
and 20 miles are common distances to
walk. Bennett, of the New York Her
aid, walked ten miles in l hour and 40
minutes. The Misses McCosh, Of
Princeton. walked twenty miles. 1t
was but last Monday aud Tuesday,
yesterday aud the day beforel that a
lumber Of Williamsport ladies walked
to Lewisburg, distance of twenty-five
miles. There is both health and econ
omy in walking, aud also profit to the
tanner and shoemaker. Larger shoes
will be required, hence more leather,
and more stitches and pegs.

THE LMMORTAL MULLET.

That rhymes with gullet has been
Grants favorite government architect
and has cut big swath of late years He
resigned however, lately owing to some
disagreement with one of the Secretaries
The following from the Cincinnati Com
mercial correspondence may show how
this Mullet has managed;
Parties from Knoxville, Tennessee,
bring up queer story of Mullett's pro-
ceedings there. The Government build
ing in that city was recently completed,
or so nearly finished as to require furnish
ing. The local dealers and manufactu-
rers desired to have a chauce to compete
for furnishing the building but Mullet
declined to negotiate with them, sending
his order to firm in Baltimore. In due
time the furniture arrived, and with it
the bill. The furniture appeared to be
fair to ordinary, but the bill was unques-
tionably extraordinary, ,containing,amOng
other items, charge of one hundred and
seventy-fve dollars for common mar
ble-top table. Mr. William Rule, the
postmaster, Was required to approve the
bill, but he could not conscientiOusly do
so, and notified Mullet to that effect In
reply he was instructed to at least receipt
for the furniture, and Mr.. Mullet had the
matter arranged without Mr., Rules fur
ther assistance. 1t is charged that this
Baltimore firm supply all the furniture
for the public buildings in the smaller
towns and cities, If they receive the
good prices they get upin Knoxville case
they certainly have atolerably good thing
of it, almost as good, it is yentured, as
Governor Shepherd
