It is a new variety of which none was grown in this conntv previous to this season. It has not yet been threshed, but Mr. Shatfer says it is very heavy and thinks it will vield well. 1) C.

I.k hty, a former resident of Som erset Co. His many fricn.b miss him, partic ularly a certain Miss S. for whom, perhaps, time will pass slowly in his absence. The heavy rains and high water of last , , , week did not do much damage to farmers as , , , . , fitraswe have learned. ime oats shocks , ,, , , . ,, , were iiiorouuiy soaaeu, especially suiu as were dow n, which reimimi much work to dry them. Also, some oats that were not cut were badly beaten down, and difficult to cut. Most of tlie crop is now stored. John E. tiood's steam thresher has just re- j turned from Siuyestown and vicinity to the ' neighbor!! of Biier's sawmill.

Edward Coleman was taken by surprise and aimoxt confused on S a..iay morning, JlJtb, when hi wife presented him with twin babies a boy and a girl. Kd is a man of strong nerves, but this event, to use his own expression, put him in one of the worst predicaments he ever was in. We think he lias recovered his asual serenity of mind, esieciu'ily since the congratulations of his many friends have been externied to hint fur he does not show much conceit or van ity. He is now the father of eight children, all in good health, and, b. ii:g an industrious nian, he will do tu duly m providing ftjr j Uieiu. I In tlie Hix-tLD of the IJth inst., we ticed that Mr. J. M.

Now. yonr n-a.lrrs very well know that a dozen sheaves is s very indefinite quantity, and no fair comparison ran be ma.le on that score. If Mr. Bowman consents to (five the area of the ground on which hia rye grew, he may find some of his neighbors who will, proba bly compete for the "cake." We will here mention that Mr. Jacob M. Fike. near Gei ger's Station, raised TOJ bushels of rye on less than half the area that Mr. Bowman's it bushels grew, acconliug to reports in circu lation. If Josiah cares to "loss up'' in the mailer of area, we think he neeiU not go away far from home. i. D.

Mr. Baer has, through observation, reading and other modes of in quiry, tried to inform himself what is best adapted to onr climate and soil-. He claims his object is to furnish what his customers n.eJ or want, and n.H to talk npcertain new varieties whose only known merits.' are high prices. M RIBBLEa. The Hitch In South Penn Matters.

Confluence Items, Sever, within the rectillertkKi of the o!d rsl inhabitants, has there been such a rlod In this part of tb county as was witnessed here on Tuesiay night. It commenced rain ing about 1 o'clock in the morning and co--i-tinned duriug tlte whole day without any intermission until hnig after dark. About sunset the rivers rose at the nie of two fvt sc hour. The water did not reach; tiie inch es point until after W o'clock in the uight. Comparatively little damage waa ifcuie iu town. A lew fumiiies hat I to vacate and pitch their tent on higher grwmid. The in jury done to the railroad track is said to be very great. The town is full of passengers who came here, but cacoo! get further wnt. Some of the citizens of town were considera bly alarmed when the water was at its high est stage, fearing that it would soon overflow the entire country. The farm of G. G. Groff, lying between here and the town cf Crsina, was considerably inj ami. A large part of tbe farm was flooded which is s very unu sual circumstance. Corn and potato patches, along the river, sunVied greatly. X. Prepare for Voting. The Presidential election will be held this year on Tuesday tlie tith of November. Ev ery citizen should be prepared to rote as but honest judgment shall dictate. The follow ing autQiestiona as to tbe qualifications of electors should be carefully considered by all interested patties: Native born citizens who will be between twenty-one and twenty-two years of age on election day, ea rote without having been assessed or the payment of taxes. A citizen becomes twenty -one years of age on the day before his birthday. Thus one born on the 7th of November twenty-one years ago. can rote on age on the 6ih of Sorember this year. The only requisite for a man voting oa age is that be shall have resided in his precinct sixty days previous to the election. Every citizen over tiie age of twenty-two years must be assessed at least sixty days be fore tlie election. That is. he must be assess ed on or before the uih of September next to qualify himself for voting at the ireideu tial election. Every citizen over the age of twenty-two years must pay a State or county tax within two years preceding the election, and it must be paid not less than thirty days before election day. All who have not paij a rlaie or county tax within two years, auu-t pay such tax on or before the Gib of October this year to qualify them as electors. Naturalized citizens, in addition to the usual tax and resident qualiucations. must be naturalized at least one month before they can vote. AU who are eligible to naturaiiza- I tion vhi not fulIT naturalized, must ob tain ineirpaiers irom tne courts on or oe- i fiire the fith of September to qualify theiu as electors this year. Citizens of other States must have resi dence of one year In Pennsylvania to qualify them fir rotins, unless they were previously citizens of the State, when a residence of six i ... . , , , , . ' i Citizens of other Plates, therelore. w ho have I . , . . , ... 1 taken up their residence m Pennsylvania . ' ... since the oth ut November last, cannot vote this year. ! There is often dispute as to the true re-i- denec of a citizen incases where men pursue j their employment in different places. Kesi- dence is a utiestion of intenliou on the part i - of the citizen, and unless the iufeulion of i the voter is in conflict with the law, his own testimony is accepted as conclusive. It is ujiafe for citiz-.-ns who require assess nieuts, the payment uf tax or naturalization way-4,odt,lav. q,ml";fving t hem-elves as ele. tors I " nntil the last days on which they ran do so. Assessments should be carefully bi'i'.iired into before the end of August, and naturali zation and the payment of tax should be attended to before the close of September. Every citizen should hold his citizenship too valuable to be the niavtl.ini? of narfv - r - .- a - - r -4 ! committees snd be slmnlit IimiIt 1i i r.wn assessment, to his own naturalization and to the payment of his own taxes. The cost is so smalt that all who can afford it should value the high prerogatives thereby conferr ed. Let every man qualify himself Uir vot iug. and then let him vote the Republican ticket. . The Commissioners" Convention. The revision of stale laws governing eoun- i,aor the commonwealiii has long been a matter of Lhe most unrent uee.1 and the rorn- ruisMoncrs of Erie couti'y have tlie credit of starting tlie present interest aueHig the coun ty cuiuruLsMoiicrs of the several cunties who will meet here on Sepienilsrr 11 in con vention to frame a memorial to the -tate leg ihutire. a-king that (he laws be ma.le uni form, and certain amendments and erasi.res be made to existing laws. Governor Beaver is very much in favor of the sehe.ne of the county commissioners, and was found in his ro.uu in tlie Keed house last evening by a reporter. " Governor, have you hear! of the effort to secure the attendance of the commission ers of the several counties ot the state at a general convention of county commissi, .tiers to be held at Erie on Septeinljer 1 1 quer ied the reporter. ; ' r. ' Yes sir," said the governor, I've heard of such a movement and am greatly inter ested in its success. It seems to me that if the comuiissioTiers of the several counties were to come together and compare their views as to the means of executing existing laws and express their views to tlie legisla ture as to the laws to be p.issed at its next session great good might be accomplished thereby. Oicstions of revenue and ques tions of practice as reganls the laws that now exist are important and -it seems to rue tliat a general expreneiou ami comparison of views ill regard to these matters would be of very great raius to the people of the com mouweuiUi, and if I had the opportunity or the power to do o, I would be glad to ex press my opinion as to the value of this con vention to every comtui-iioner of every county in this state. The question of revenue is the great question now before the ;eop!e of tlie state. The courts have lieeu coiistruinnur reveuue ws lately in such a way a to impair the amount ol revenue winch we have li.ili.rto derived from gross receipts and other means of taiulion which we are likely to lose, and it is therefore of the very drst importance that oar revenue system soouKl be thor oughly overhauled and rebuilt from the foundation. There is no class in tlie com munity which knows so ranch about reve nue and who can make practii-a! suggestions of as much value as the county commis sioners, and therefore it seems to me, if tbere is no other reason for bringing them togeth er, tbe imiortant discussion of the revenue system w.m'd. of itself, justify the attend ance of every county commissioner in the state. There are so many other questions in which all are interested to be discussed and determined that it seems to me the conven tion canuot fail to be of great interest and also of great val ue. and if I had the oppor tunity to do so I would be very glad to com municate with every county commissioner in tlie state, so as induce him U attend if possible. " Whilst no actual provision is made, per haps for the expenses of the county commis sioners, it is nevertheless tme that in attend ing a convention like this he wonld be serving his constituency as fully as it he sras at a session of the commissioners of his own county, and I do not see why his mile age and per diem could not fairly and legally be paid by the county ; and as I understa nd it tbe eonimissiouers who heretofore attend ed suck saealings were entirely satUtied by the payment of their actual expenses."
