BOLD ATTEMPT AT SwIHDLING.-On Friday
last d. f. Robinson, Esq, cashier Of the Mitin
County National Bank, received 4 telegrnphic
dispatch from Middleburg, purporting to be from
Col. VIM. Willis, requesting him to forward $500
by express TO the latters address at Selinsgrovc.
As Col Willis was in attendance at the Snyder
county court as n witness. the money was
promptly forwarded without a shadow Of suspl-
cou that a swindler was on the make. On the
colonel's return to Lewistown, the matter was
incidentally mentioned, when it transpired that
he had sent no such message. 1t has since been
ascertained that the swindler called at the ex-
press Office at Selinsgrove for the package, but
the agent being sharp enough to require known
proof of identification, failed to get it. The
money has been returned. Swindlcrs of all kinds
are becoming SO common, and under such plausi-
bic pretences, that il will almost be safe rule
TO refuse dealing with strangers altogether where
I obligations in money matters or money are con-
cerned.-LsUiStClrn Gazette.

SeaEer of Weights and Measures.

EudOf % ute american:
\ communication over the signature of d. s.
Rci'Z, County Commissioner, appeared in the
Sunbury Daily of Thursday, the 26th inst, in
which he gives the fees charged ~ law by the
Seaer of Weights and Measures, which are the
same that ! have been chargi.g in every Instance.
There have been no complaints, as he states, as
to the charges, as every business man have met
with is most Cheerfully willing to abide by the
law, except Mr.. Reitz himself, after showing him
the fee bill. Mr.. Reitz is the only person who
has declined to pay the fees during my canvass
in the county in the performance Of my duty as
an officer. He gave as a reason that he ought to
! be exempt from paying because he was a County
Commissioner. Besides he informed me that he
had but one scale on his premises when there
were two. Any one is privileged TO examine and
compare my list with the one published, and
they will find them alike. The reason he gave
for refusing to pay, was that lie did not hnOw
that an appointment of Soaler of Weights and
Measures had been made, and because he was q
County Commissioner he thought lie should not
pay anything. This is the only complaint that
has been made. and ] .eaye the public to draw
their own conclusions. As public officer | in
tend to discharge my duty in accordance with
the law, and if the law will exempt Mr.. Reitz
from pay wing because he is q County CoD,,aiSSio-
usr, perhaps by accident, shall feel satisfied

". Editor:
The question of dividing the West ward of
Sunbury, has been somewhat agitated by the
Court appointing three persons to locate the di-
viding line. From what | can learn majority
OF the Commissioners appointed, recommended
the Shamokn Valley r. r., as the most appro-
pirate line for the division. South of that line
there are a majority of twenty-seven votes in the
ward. Besides this five-eghths of the taxes are
paid by the inhabitants of the proposed division.
Another matter is to he taken into consideration.
According to Il decision of the Supreme Court,
''That citizens residing in 4 ward that receives
no benefit from Il borough or city from a tax as
sessed for the benefit of the whole, is not liable
to taxation.'' This relieves the people Of the
proposed ward of the gas tax. Ifthe line prOpOs-
ed is adopted, there will be but two lamps in the
ward, ard the citizens will pay the expenses of
those without tax. Let Us hear from others.
