A well printed paper Is worth more than one bad-ly printed; aninduonUal Journal carries more "weight than one without reputation. So also a paper which habitually charges high prices for "its advertising thereby makes its columns elusive, and will have fewer and as a rule, a better class of advertisements, and is worth something more on that account."

Devor, V. and Ida Negiey, Secretary. The otnect of the Institute was then stated by D. B. Kline to be the mutual improvement of teachers and others interested in education.

Several questions were then discussed. One, Should scholars be punished publicly before the school, was entered into with great zest. The proper method -of teaching Elementary Grammar, Percentage, was also discussed. A committee was appointed to prepare an Order of Exercises for the next meeting.

She goes so far as to say that work kasalready been commenced on the Connellsviile division, that all the work is of a first class order and evidently was constructed with a view to a double track road.

She brings the road over tbe mountain, by way of Conans Gap, thence along tbe valley to a point about a mile south of Richmond, where it crosses the South Penn, road, and winds its way down to Loudon where it takes an easterly route, crosses the Warm Spring Toad through tbe Krichbaum farm (now Wolf kills) and comes into town on Water street near the old Seceder bbrying ground.

Simpson, the young man for whose arrest a warrant was issued by M.

J. Slick, of Merceriburg. foran assault upon George W. Hornbreaker," which is supposed to have caused his death, was caught ou Christmas night. He left home soon after learning the result of the inquest, aud although he was known to be hiding In Maryland, the exact locality was not discovered.

George W. Wilkins made several visits to his home on the mountain, but, of course, did no find him. He was finally captured by Taylor Cline, at the Indian Spring Furnace, near Fairview, Washington County, Md. His captor, assisted by one companion, brought him all the way from the furnace on foot. Cline arrested him under the erroneous impression that a reward of 300 had been ottered for his apprehension, and released him before reaching tha county prison.

Simpson again returns to Maryland, but he was re-arrested and brought to jail on Thursday by G. W. Wilkins, of Mercersburg. An Interesting Occasion. On Sun--day -last, CountyTreasurereleet IE Mackey resigned as Superintendent of the Sunday "School at Dry Run, accompanying his resignation with touching words of regret at the necessity which compelled him' to sever his connection with the school.

Mr. Mackeys first connection with the school dates back to 1859, and he has been Superintendent since As may readily be supposed in that time he has not only greatly endeared himself to the community he is aboutto leave, but has formed associations in the praiseworthy position he occupied which makes the surrender of his labors one of sincere regret And reluctance. Following the farewell remarks, the school, through Assistant Superintendent D. O. Shearer, presented to Mr.

Mackey a beautiful silver pitcher as a souvenir of their affectionate regard for him, Mr. S. jierforming this- act a neat an appropriate speech. The occasion was one long to be remembered by all present. Mr.

Shearer, we understand, was elected Superintendent and Mr. John Wolff, assistant. The Christmas number of the Metsenyer Ife without doubt one of the finest issues of that journal that has ever appeared. Tbe following deserved compliment of the paper we take from t-he Time; Rev. Ihv editor of The Messenger, the organ of the Reformed Church, has proved himself to be one of the most progressive men among our many able religious editors.

He has added sprigbtliness to his church organ without in anv degree detracting from its dignity and fidelity as a religious newspaper, ana be has greatly elevated and enlivened the standard of religious editorial discussion. His Christmas number of The Messenger isabeautiful and attractive issue. An outside sheet ou tinted paper is illuminated on first page with music, words gnd a clear design, 'all furnished by his own non-professional church people, and the paper throughout is admirable alike in its illustrations and literature. Altogether it is a most attractive Christmas number for tbe family fireside, and it will make the merry little worshipers of Christmas think lietter of both The Messenger aud religion. Frightful Runaway.

A runaway occurred on Saturday night which might have proved very serious, but, fortunately, was not attended by any unfortunate results. Mr. Johnston Rankin's covered wagon drawn by two horses, and containing Mrs, Rankin, her sister-in-law, Mr. Pitman, and several children, seven persons in ail, and driven by a young man, was proceeding homeward from Mercersburg. When about three miles from that town, and about the same distance from Mr.

Rankin's residence in the Corner, the horses became freightened and ran off, the young driver entirely losing all control over -them. They ran some two hundred yards in close proximity to the worm fence which bordered the road, tearing up the riders in their course, and finally throwing tbe wagon box from its place, and breaking it-to pieces. The springs were also damaged, and the whole vehicle rendered useless. The horses ran home, and, we believe, were not much indeed, they sustained any Injury, The occupant of toe wagon then walked home, with little damage, but exceedingly thankful at tbetreery nanow setape from serious Ipjnry, If not from ft dwelling on South Matin street, and expects to have it ready for occupancy by the 1st of ApriJ. rl A Pleasant Surprise.

The Lutheran Sunday School of Mercersburg held its an nual Christmas celebration on Christmas Eve. After the exercises laid down on the programme bad been gone through with, Mr, Geo. C. Steiger arose, and on behalf of the, Congregation, made the pastor. Rev.

L. M. Culler, the recipient ot a handsome gift in the shape of a fine double-seated carriage. The whole affair bad been 'so well planned that the reverend gentlemen was completely taken by surprise, and was readily pardoned the in harassment manifested by him in acknowledging the unexpected gift. The carriage is a line affair of its kind, manufactured by Mr.

D. S. Stouf-fer; and, although a valuable piece of property, is only a slight mark of the esteem in which Mr. Culler is already held fcy his congregation, notwithstanding the brief period which he has passed as its paster.

Last week we gave an aceount of a series.

of petty thefts perpetrated in Mercersburg and its neighborhood, which culminated in the stealing of the entire contents of a tobacco shop. Rudolph, the thief, was arrested on Saturday afternoou under the following He had been prowling about the country, and Fad been as far from home as Altoona, and, on his return visited Greencastle, and, perhaps, other towns. He started from that town on foot on Saturday, and, when in the neighborhood of Upton, met a young man who was traveling to Mercersburg in a buggy. Rudolph asked permission to ride, which was granted. When they stopped at the gate-house, a half mile east of Mercersburg, li was recognized by the gate keeper, Mr.

John Kuhn, who informed him that he was his prisoner. Rudolph, who had in the meau-time desceniied from the buggy, not fancying this unexpected arrest, climbed tutu a field, and endeavored to escape. He was followed by Mr. Kuhn and a neighbor, who put in an appearance with a pistol. Rudolph, now seeing that escape was hopeless, surrendered without further opjiOsition, and was brought to town and taken before M.

Theevent was signalized-by an entertainment held In the JlhapeJ onThurs-day evening.

The exercises consisted of vocal music, speeches, dialogues, declamations and recitations by the scholars. Notwithstanding the fact that the term of tuition lias embraced only a few- weeks, their progress and proficiency was most commendable, and elicited warm expression of satisfaction ou the part of the large and Intelligent audience that graced the occasion. Many of the students exhibited elocutionary ability which, if sedulously cultivated and improved, must inevitably lead to usefulness and future 'distinction. Where all- did well it were invidious to specify, even if the performances were pot all of equal merit. Yet all were fully up to the average of such occasions.

At the conclusion of the programme, the teacher of music, Miss Gottwald, was requested by tbe audience to favor it with a recitation. -To this request she kindly consented, and recited a pathetic composition styled "Gathering Wmtergreen. ith much pathos and admirable effect. This young lady possesses elocutionary talent of a very high order, and her floe rendition of the piece profoundly impressed her sympathetic and appreciative audience. It was a brilliant conclusion of a most agreeable entertainment.

We are gratified to learn that Dr. Augh-tnbaUKfrV arduousamlil l-requrted- labor towards placing the time-honured institution over which he presides on a permanent basis, is meeting with some measure of success. It is our ardent wish that Ins fuitbfuljabor may meet with such cooperation and encouragement from the community and Synod of the Potomac as will enable him to crown his efforts by restoring Mercerscurg College to a position very nearly, if not altogether approaching its former prosperity and glory. ln alijiis noble efiorts, every friend of education should, at least, bid him a hearty aud generous God-speed.
