Is THE END NEAR?-An old prediction
called Mother Shipton's Prophecy" ha
been handed down in the old country since
somewhere about 1881. 1t was first made
public in 1883, and was republished in l641
Every point in it has received its Htera
fulfillment except its climax. and-wht
knows? Read it. Its language-handee
down from so remote periods crude
but the fulfillment is within the knowledge
of every one:
Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with woe.
Around the world thoughts shall hy
In the twinklng of an eye
Water shall yet more wonders do;
Now strange, yet shall be true.
The world upside down shall be,
And gold be found at root of tree.
Through hills man shall ride,
And no horse or ass be at his side.
Under water men shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk.
In the air men shall be seen.
In white, in black, in green.
Iron in water shall float,
As easy as a wooden boat
Gold shall be found, and found
In a land that's now not known.
Fire and water shall wonders do.
England at last shall admit a Jew.
The world to an end shall come
In eighteen hundred and eighty-one.

The Estey Organ.

The revolving cycles of the ages will soon
bring around again the most joyous festival
Of the religious world, when all christendom
will celebrate the birth of the Prince of
Peace, and when parents will delight, when
sitting beneath the shadow of the Christmas
tree, to minister to the innocent amusement
and qualification of their children. This is
natural and right, and we know of no better
method of doin. it than by giving them an
Estey Organ. A thing of beauty, it has
been truthfully said, is u joy forever, and
there is no better exemplitcation of this
beautiful sentiment than the superb musi-
cal instrument in question. They are not
only things of beauty, intrinsically con-
sidered, but in the hands of skillful per
formers are capabl. of producing such en-
trancing and melodious music as to efiec-
tually drive dull care forever from the
humblest hearth stone At the same time
they are grand enough to grace the palace of
the millionaire. Reader, if you are Il parent
and wish to while away the long and bois-
ferrous Winter nights, when bowling tenn
pest and the driving snow, make it i'm
possible for you to leave your domicile, get
your children an Estey Organ, and, by
pleasing them you will not fail to minister
to your own qualification. They are sold Ivy

Recovery of Stolen Property.

In consequence of information received
from Sheriff Boulder by the officers of the
American Union Association of Chester
county, for the detection Of horse thieves
and recovery OF stolen horses, Joseph H..
Brintoa, proprietor of the serpcntine stone
quarrieS near West Chester, came to Elkton
on Monday morning last, and proceeded in
company with EN-Shertf Janney TO Elk
Neck, where he reclaimed tho bay mare, the
finding of which, under peculiar circum-
stances, was fully reported in last week S
Wing. He was much pleased at finding the
animal, which was valuable one, and
literally rewarded those who had it in
charge. We learned from Mr.. Brinton that
the animal was stolen from his stable at the
quarries, on Sunday night, the o3rd ult.
Mr. Brinton left Elkton on his mare on
Monday evening. He knew nothing of the
carriage that was found near the mare, and
is believed to have been stolen by the same
persons. 1t is probable that Mr.. Piercy's
horse and wagon We're stolen by the same
thieves who stole Mr.. Brinton's mare, one
Of whom is described as beisg y tall negro,
