Happy mortals, now a days, are the coal dealers, to whom every cold snap is an undisguised blessing, instead ot a blessing in disguise, as it is to'most peo ple. At Last.

The unfortunates who are committed to the city lockup are now furnished with coffee in addition to the supply of bread. This is right, and we are glad to announce the fact. Nsyt summer, when the mercury is steady at 100 in the shade, we expect to see half the neonle ot tnis city, wno have grumbled at the. weather this winter, around with their overcoats on not saying a woru. The Countv Suoeriutendent.

S. D. Ingram, last week visited the schools of Bast Hanover township. Owing to the severity of the weather and depth of the snow, he found the attendance less man usual. Time of Execution Changkh.

Governor Hartranft has changed the time appointed for the execution of Barney M'Cue. under sentence of death, in LycomiDg county, from March 17 to Marcu zv. TheY. M. has began another good work by establishing a boarding and employment bureau.

Iso doubt many young men and boys may be saved from evil associations by being cared for by means of this bureau. The banks and public offices were closed to day, it being Washington's birth day. and a legal holiday as well. There was no general observation of the day, but the flag of our country wasdis played from a number of houses, and lrom the capitol building. Right Rev.

De Wolfe Howe, Bishop of the Central Diocese ot sylvania, preached in St. Paul's Epis copal church yesterday morning and in Bt. Stephen's in the evening, in tne latter cnurcn twelve persons were confirmed. Our citizens generally would do well to have the snow removed from their pavements and gutters immediately if tney cio not wish to appear beiore the Mayor and contribute to the funds of the city. The ordinance reference to the matter will he strictly enforced.

a. word to tne wise should besufhcieDt. Twelve vagrants and three inebriates answered roll call at the Mayor's levee this morning. The former were ordered to perform two hours work each on the streets of the city, and were turned over to Supervisor Tress, of the First street district. Of the latter, two were committed for ten days each, and one paid his nne and was discharged.

Passed Through. On Saturday night five chiefs of the Chippewa tribe or Indians, accompanied by an inter preter, arrived at the depot in this city on the Atlantic express train from the west, ana leitin a short titne afterwards for Washington over the Northern Central railway. The object of their trip is a business conversation with their Great Father. It is cruel for parents to say to their wayward progeny, jus as they start to bed "Remember you will get it in the morning, if you did escape this evening." iso wonder their boys get their prayers mixed and say "Xow I lay me down to keep. I pray the Lord my soul to sleep." No wonder they get the nightmare, and fall down stairs in the night, with such a trial awaiting them in the morning.

The Police Committees of Councils, in conjunction with the Mayor and Chief of Police, are endeavoring to make our police force one of the best in the State. They have procure 1 for the use of the police department pair of leg irons, three pairs of the and most improved handcuff's. ightcen improved chain nippers, eighteen patent duplex police calls or whistles, and three dark lanterns. New belts and batous have also been ordered. It is expected that the entire force will be uniformed during the present week.

Police Manual. A manual of i ies and regulations, with general insti actions, orders, for the government and guidance of the police force of this city, prepared by Chief of Police H. A. Hoopes, and approved by his honor Mayor Patterson, has been published. It was printed at the Telegraph printing house, is neatly bound, and bears evidence of having been carefully collated.

For some years the force lias been without any regularly adopted rules for its government, but now every officer will know his duty, and will be held amenable for any violation of the rules. A recent visit to the county almshouse convinced us that the institution was well conducted. Every department was found in a cleanly condition. The inmates appeared to be contented, and their every want was attended to. The food furnished is of a substantial character, and no complaint could be made of a lack of quantity.

In the nursery department were found a number of bright looking children of various ages' all of whom appeared happy and contented. The building is well heated by the steam apparatus recently introduced. The steward, Christian Bowman, and his assistants do everything in their power to add to the comfort of the unfortunate under their charge. The directors of the poor visit the almshouse frequently, and appear to have a supervisory care of the house aud its inmates. Since the special officers have been on duty there has been no disturbance at the bummers' house, and it would not be well for the stragglers who apply there for quarters to undertake any riotous demonstrations while Ed.

Best and Ike KaufFmau are on hand. The physician, Dr. Itenuinger.hasanumber of patients to attend to, and makes ne ouent visit. We doubt if a rnoreclean ly or better conducted establishment of its character can be lound in the State than the Dauphin county almshouse. At the request of many the meetings at the rooms of the Y.

Ottitk a number of country folks were in the city to day, and it appeared very much like a holiday. The weather yesterday and to day could not have been more deligmnu.

The new styles of hats for gentlemen, for spring wear, have made their appearance, but we cannot exactly describe the dilierence between mem arm muse of the winter.

Perhaps it is because we have not examined them closely. iJtMtcnv a t. Wk lisid a call to day from S. H. Spangler, pumisaeroi tin A mrviorin.

We are well aware that more serious consequences may be the result, but we Know or none more annoying. It anDears probable that wc will have to wade through slush before long.

As the snow is melting, the Supervisors can now have the street crossings clean ed, and the rest of our citizens can have it removed from the pavements without much dimculty. Revival Services. The revival at the Nagle Street Bethel, under the pas toral care of Rev. D. A.

At Sunbury the special was joined by the regular funeral train. We are glad to be able to record the fact that in a short time the office of the officers of the Cumberland Valley rail road company in this cny, and the re ception or waiting room, will be consid erably enlarged, and win oe tnorouguiy refitted. Workmen are already at work preparing the foundation for a building to be used by the train men, immmedi ately opposite the room used by them at present. The improvements contem plated have been long needed, and when completed will be properly appreciated by the traveling public.

Runaway. On Saturday afternoon. between four and five o'clock, a horse attached to a sleigh, which had been left standing in front of the Farmers' hotel. on Market street, concluded to go home on his own hook, so without giving an notice he dashed out Market street, over the railroad track regardless of the ap proaching locomotive or the signal of our irienu, jimmy nammei, the attentive flagman of the Philadelphia and Reading railroad company, and ran afoul of one of the iron frames of the bridge across the canal. Thesleigh was broiten into numberless pieces, the contents were scattered in every direction, and the horse with nothing but the shafts pursued bis way up Market street.

Wo were unable to learn who was the owner of the animal, but woul advise him that when he again visits the city to see that his team is properly secured. sy tne way, we Deiieve there is a city ordinance which imposes a Ecnalty for allowing horses to stand un itched on the streets, and it would be well to have it enforced.

That "virtue is its own reward" is no doubt true, vet there are occasional cases that come to our notice in which the services of a faithful employee de serve some public recognition, it is oi fenng a premium to young men to perform their duties faithfully. A case in point: Messrs. Ebv Sons, of this o.it.yr. have in their employ now, and for the past eleven years, a man to whom we would like to reier an young men as an example of patient industry, faithful performance of duty, and an absorbing interest in the business of his employees. We refer to Mr.

Henry L. Painter. By imitating his example every young man will succeed. What was Done by a load of Hay. About noon to day a large hay wagon, heavilv loaded with oaieu nay, drawn bv a team ol six muies ana two horses helonarinsr to a Mr.

Bryson, of Cumberland county, was driven by one of Mr. employees up Third street, en route for the stock yards. The wagon being an unusually large one, in turn ins: down Walnut street towards Sec ond, one of the wheels ran against the lamp post at the corner ot Third and Walnut streets, which was surmounted by the large and handsome lamp be longing to jvir. jonn uross, tne pro prietor of the Uross House, breaking it on about three or four leet lrom the ground, and making infinitely small pieces of the glass in the lamp. The driver appeared perfectly unconcerned about the damage done, and was rather inclined to be insolent when questioned as to was the owner oi tne team.

THE3 COUMTY. Upper End Matters. We collate from the Lykens Register the follow ing: On Monday evening last Mr. James Power, of Williamstown, clerk and paymaster in the office of the Summit Branch Colliery, died or innammation of the bowel3. Mr.

Power had been suffering from chronic diarrhea for sev eral months, we learn, but did not take his bed until on Thursday prior to his death, and the news of his decease was received with surprise anil sorrow by his numerous friends and acquaintances in this place.

Its symptoms are almost infinite in their variety, and tne tonorn and despondent victims of the disease often fancy themselves the prey, in turn, of every known malady.
