McFctridjje, Communication. Tion est a, March 1, 1875. To tk Editor ofth Forut Republican! Bir: In a recent number of your paper, I noticed an article in wnicn was suggested a disposition of the Library Association Fund. . The object is a charitable one, yet I .doubt the possibility of a fair distri bution. There are so many bands through which this money must pass; I fear it would be Dearly, if not wholly cousuined, before it reached its destina tion. ..-"'" Though not always an advocate of the old and often selfish adage, "charity begins at home," yet in this instance there is in our midst a noble and land able cause to be advocated. As the money in questson was raised for the ostensible purpose of founding a Library Association at Tiouecta, for the benefit of ths people, as well as the members of the Literary Society. If it is to be used otherwise than for what it was directed and originally intended, why not use it fur a purpose that would btoefit the students and teachers of our Borough school, and through them, the whole community, vis: by establishing a School Library of Reference. There are a few works that are in dispensable to every well regulated institution of learning. What these should be could be determined by the members of ths Literary Society, This library of reference, if donated, would become a part of the Borough . School properly, and as such would be un der the care and control of the school directors, it would be the nucleus to a large library and perhaps to more ex tended educational facilities. Let us try to raise our school from its hitherto tow standard to a higher, Let us try to reuiu at home ths class of studeuts that have hitherto gone abroad. At least let us try to place within reach of the poorer classes the tL'eans of receiving a higher culture. I Jiope there will be a meeting of the Society with full attendance, at an early date to consider the matter. F. Jlyren, "The Prophet," as be is called, has been making things live ly in our place for a wee!; or more past, but seems to have steadied down little iu the past few days. VI)n he came into town, his first business was to get the key of the Universalis church, where he has sometimes held forth, but the key could not be fouud ; nobody had it, nor kuew wnere it was. Disappointed in getting a place to promulgate his peculiar doctrines, he went into the M. E. Church on Wednesday evening last, and after the regular services were concluded, en deavored to speak his piece there. The brethren not 'wishing' to-slisten to his discourse, the lights were turned out, and he wasleft to self-communion. On Thursday evening, he was on hand again, and once interrupted Rev. Lusher, and again attempted to speak after the moetiog. Sheriff Van Gie sen spoke to him, and asked him to stop, but proving refractory, the sher- til' seised, and forcibly ejected bim from the church, which he had a per fect right to do ; and his action was approved of by nearly, if uot quite, everybody present. He was brought up to the Central House, and informed that if he kept quiet, be would not be disturbed, but otherwise he would be takeu to the "cosier." As soon as the sheriff was out of sight he commenced to shout and rave, when he promptly taken in hands and lodged in jail over night. On Saturday night he was on hands at the church again, and, the sheriff being absent, he acted up a lit' tie, and, wo are sorry to learn, was backed up and encouraged bv those who should know better, and who used a good deal of profane language In the church, in the preseece of the la dies. Such actions can not be too strongly-condemned, and we hops we shall never be called upon to chroni cle a repetition of them. In addition to the Court Proceed ings published last aeek the following case was disposed of: Jas. Baptie vs. J. L. Acomb; ver diet for plaintiff for six cents dam ages, and costs. Chas. Corbet, of Brookville, was admitted to practce in the several J courts of Forest county. The following hotel licenses, were granted ; Laouard Ague, Tlonesta boro; Wilson Smith, and Samuel Wiggins Faguudus; John Pctersou, Truusey-ville. i la aa article yclept "Brookville Superlatively Considered," which the Clarion Democrat published recently, the following is the winding np: Oh. BrookvilWl thou art more than is dreamed of in Horatio's philosophy. Uneqiialed, glorious and alone I 'T would take a Dickens to write op thy little foibles and characteristics, and a Mark Twain to picture what is ludieroua in thee. 'With all thy faults wa Jove thee still.' Hearty and enthosiastic in thy greeting, magnifi cent in tby entertainment, social and free, yet cultured and refined in thy intercourse, you make the visitor feel that your farewell and 'come again is from the heart. On the whole, we rather like Brookville as it is. May its glory never depart." The Brookville Republican retorts in an article headed "Clarion Frigidly Surveyed," which closes as follows : "Slep oo, O Clarion I Great art thon iu thine ease, beautiful in thy re pose, and grand io thine ambitions. While ail else is changed nd .chang ing, we may leave the alone, and, re turning years bedoe, rind thee still the same, When the Let beau wave rolls over thine existence, may thy success or arise and stand forth an active cen tre of pleasure and profit, and a model la its enthusiastic greetings, magnifi cent entertainment, social and free, yet cultured and refined intercourse." The ice went cut of the river at this point on Saturday last, and, to the great joy of the inhabitants of this place, did not injure the bridge in any particular. The ice-breakers worked splendidly, hashing the ice up in the easiest possible mauner. The thick ness of the ice was about eighteen inches and large cakes covering half the width of ths river, would come crasning against me oreakers and be crushed fine. Our people in generr I, aud Mr. JIuuter in particular are im mensely relieved because the bridge stands the test so well. It is believed by many that if the other bridge had been protected by breakers, as this oneis.it would have been standiug yet. e understand that the ice is gorged all , the way from Henry's Beud to the fcoutk of Stewart's Run, a distance of six 6i seven miles. We lose a good highway for sleighs, but we at the same time throw off a great burden of solicitude. , .. On Wednesday evening about half-past six o'clock as we were com ing down street we heard the cry of "Fire I t ire I Hastening our steps we Soon fouud that Robinsou & Bonner's store building was ou fire iu the roof, just over our office, and, as said office is only insured about one-third its value, we immediately took steps to learn how much of our material could be saved, fortunately, the bre was discovered in time, and a few pails full of water extinguished the flames, but not before quite a bole was burn ed in the roof. The fire caught from sparks from the chimney. . The Fre says that "Messrs. Gil bert Jamieson of Tionesta Twp., C. 11. Church, of Hickory, and John Reck, of Tiouesta Boro, have beeu severally invited to become candidates for Coun ty Commissioner at the next election, subject to Republican usages.". We suppose as the Vest had the honor of first putting their names before the public, it will give these an unquali f 1 wars .a . nea support, wnea me lime comes the names of Republican candidates for this and all other county offices will appear in thit paper under the head of "Announcements." . There is a bill in the Stats Sen ate providing for the erection of wa tering troughs on ths public roads Those who put them up, and keep them ia order, are to be allowed $3 per annum as a credit on their road taxes. It is also made the xluty of supervisors, where there is ruuuing water, or where it might be easily got from a pump, to put up such trough at the public expense where the own ers of property neglect to do so. All watering troughs te be deemed pub lio property, and protected by law. Our school readers and popular tradit:wu tell us that George Washing ton never told a lie. His namesake, George Washington Sawyer, however, promised positively to put a rail on our office stairs lasweok, and our eyes grow moist aud our heart sad, whe we are obliged to look upon those stairs, with no banister even at half- mast. The original George wouldn' bYt served us s, We would call attention to the OOW advertisement of the Great West eru Gun Works, which appears in this issue. This estabiUhmejit is reliable, and keeps the largest stock of any gun works io Pennsylvania. Some ef ou r .laQthropie citi- tens make themselves popular by sprinkling salt on the side walks and doorsteps. This takes away tb ex treme slipperyneae of the lee," and saves many a fall. ' ' . The cry has changed from "hard times to "hard coal, and the miseries of the former are for the time being lost sight of In the dearth of the lat ter. Meanwhile all look anxiously for the ethereal mildness of spring. Our readers will remember the row at Uagan's Church, near Tylers- burg, an account of which we publish ed last fall. Two of the parties, named Amos Shotts and Clough Smith, met at a veudoe at Cornish s yesterday, and "had it out," in two rounds, in which Shotts came out victorious. Miunesota now, like Wisconsin, wants to modify those laws which, in the excitement of the.Grangnr move ment, were passed 'and have proven sock an oppressive burden on railroads. The sensible legislators out there find that they bate gone to the other ex treme. . , The bill to repeal the Local Op tion Law, was passed by a large ma- ority ia the House recently. It re mains to be seen what the Senate will do with it. There seems to be no doubt, however, but the law will be repealed, aud many a politician will take a back seat hereafter en account of his vote on the matter. Alex. McClure, disappointed in getting possession of Foruey's Press, hss purchased the Age, of Philadel phia, and will continue its publication under the name of The Times. It will be published upon about the same plan as the N. Y. Sun, its principal business being to throw' dirt at the Stale and National admiuistratious. We have received from the Board of Education at Washington two pam phlets, on being "A Statement of the Theory of Education in the United States of America," and the other, The National Bureau of Education ; its History, Work, and Limitation." The senders will please accept our heatfelt thanks for these valuable doc uments, which we shall file with our other public documents. The coal miners at Pottsville and Haxleton, Pa., are on a stiike and are committing murders and assaults on the new miners. The military will undoubtedly have to ba . called in to quell the disturbance. It is hoped that the ring-leaders may he captured and suffer the fu:l penalties of the law; as this terrorism is just as bad as when it occurs in Louisiana. Ouly the citi sens of this State don't object to ' hav ing the military called ia. A reunion of the Ninth regiment, rennsyivauia reserve volunteer corps and Third brigade, M'Call's division, will be beld at M'Keesport, Pa., July 28, 1875. Major General Ord and Governor Curtiu have already sign! fied their intention of being present on the occasion. K. Si. 1st lor, of Leavenworth Kansas, has in charge correspondence with the veterans who wish to fight their battles o er again at a social gathering. Deputy P. M. Reck calls our at tention to the fact that there are number of letters and papers sent from this office monthly to the Dead Letter Office, on account of having stamps on thorn which have been used before. The attention of all. and more particularly those who snake practice ol saving their mouey and loning their letters, is directed to the following from the postal laws: Sxc. 177. That any person who shall use or attempt to use, in payment of the postage oo any mail-matter con veyed by mail or otherwise, auy post' age-stamp, or stamped envelope, or auy stamp out from any eucn stamped envelope, which has been before used for a like purpose, shall forfeit and pay fifty dollars.
