penser Of gold and silver watches, jewelry,
clocks, musical instruments, etc, has the
drop on time and tide, as he is always ready
and willing TO wait on anybody who wants
to buy what he has to sell. Every article he
keeps is warranted as to quality and the pTi-
/ ces put upon them are as honest as the goods

Mr.. Edwin Thomas, Of This place, has
leased his blacksmith shop to Em'l Custer,
and as will be seen bv notice elsewhere calls
on all persons indebted 10 him to paw mp on
or before the 25tL inst, as he intends about
that time to pull up stakes, so to speak. and
betake himself to Iowa. All which we re-
cord with anything but pleasure as Ed. is an
honest. industrious citizen. and that is the
KIND OF men no town can afford To lose. Sue

be Democrat, that Prothotarv Gates is now
travelling like tramp over the county with
"A fellow the name of MOrrell, irving to de-
feat our favOrite General Mcdonald and Mr..
Horne, and the whole county ticket" it does
seem too utterly ntter for ANYTHING. but when
the correspondent aforesaid voted for Mr..
Gates, as he admits he did, he knew he was
Republican. and having aided so far as he
could i'm putting him where he is the least

effort Gates is making to defeat ''the whole

-Carrolltown is not half so populOus as
Ebensburg, and vet IL has the bulge on this
community in the fact that it contains a store
devoted exclusively to the sale of made-up
clothing and gents furnishing goods, the

clever and deserving a gentleman as Cambria
ever produced. We are glad to learn that
the enterprise is prOspering and that Mr. 5.

OF that place, had an exciting experience
with cross bull recently. The ferOcIous

a moment and then made his exit bv yvav of
