Wolcott of this placo is putting down'an oil well near Sugar Grove, Warren County, Pa. Will Clark of Tidioute quietly slid into town last evening, on insur ance business. The weather remains so very dry that the wells, springs, small streams, and even the cows are going dry. Tho woods are again being fired, and in several pr&ces throughout the county, have burned over considerable territory. Shoot the incendiaries I Geo. Hunter is having a new over shot wheel built for his grid mill. The water is so low now that no grinding can be done. The thermometer on Monday afternoon ran up to 93 in the shade; but a few degrees less than the hottest days of July and August. Next Saturday will be lively on DuBtin Island. Two games of base ball will be played there on that day ; one between Tylersburg and the C. 0. D.V, and the other between Dutch Hill and the Second Nine of this place.

We received a marriage notice yesterday, and from the post mark on the envelope'we see it is from New mausville, Pa. The sender signs him self "Bill Kunyoun, which is not my name." Sorry for you, Bill, but, as you say that is not your name, we'll have to omit the notic, together with your pectical comments. The New Bethlehem Vindicator, a new paper published at New Bethle hem, Clarion Co., Pa., by Messrs. II. B. & II. L. Hastings, has just been sent us with the request to "Please x."

The Pittsburgh Commercial says it is the lowest at that point it has been since 1844, and there is danger of a water famine should it continue to fall much longer. Yesterday morning ahorse hitched to a buckboard, belonging to Messrs.

Talk about your big apples, Mr. Dingman comes to the front with two of tho largest we have yet heard of.

These wero raised on the old Shriver lot, and we don't think they can be beuteu in the county; if they can we'd like to know who can do it. Saturday's Hunt. " " " The match hunt of which we spoke List week, came ofT on Saturday last, and was a success nil round. True, there was'nt a great deal of game killed, yet very fair bags were made by nearly all. The day was very dry and the woods wero noisy, which made it hard hunting, or rather finding. Very few squirrels were brought in, only nbout a dozen iu all ; this would indicate that they are not increasing iu numbers ve rapid ly. Will Smearbaugh, who had the largest count, found afamily of them it seems, as he brought in 3 gray and 3 black ones. Will Hulings, Geo. Weant and Davy Ililands all man aged to find one or two apiece. Jim Hulings, who had second largest count, brought in several redsquirels. Good feeling prevailed throughout, and all were well pleased with the day's sport. Tho losing side paid for the supper, which wai had at the Lawrence House, and was a good article, and rapidly devoured by the hungry crowd. All are anxious for another hunt in a week or two, when it is expected game, will be plentier, and more will take part in tbe sport. The Captains were W. A. Ililands and J. E. Wenk, and io justice to Mr. Hiland's side, we will say that tiro of his men did not huut, which might have made considerable difference in the couut.

Kepler, of the Mill erstowu Oil Co., had one of the mem bers of that company here with him last week, looking over the field. They visited different parts of our count, and from what we can learn the gen tleman was more than pleased with the prospects and general outlook. This Company means to develope a large portiou of this county as fast as they can lease sufficient territory to justify them in goini; ahead. There is much more expense connected with "wild catting than operating in territory where a good strike is a sure thiug, and lor this reason operators must have larger tracts to repay them fur the risks they take. Land owners throughout our county should not be backward iu leasing to these parties as they are responsible aui mean busi ness. They are not a set of land sharks who want to get hold of large leases for tho purpose of holding them, but mean to develope and test what every territory t'ley get. We hopo our citizens will lend all the encour agement they cau, and it will not be long before our county will be well tested.

The acorns in the woods where cattle are in the habit of pasturing are creating sad havoc with some of them, and several of our Dutch Hill farmers have lost cows. The weather being 60 dry there is little else for tho cattle to fead on, and in consequence qute a number have died from the effects of "too much acorn." Mr. Shellhouse, Judge Proper, and Mr. Kiser, we understand, have each lost one, aud others have had hard work to cave their. Mr. Lewis Widmer started with his family for Nebraska, on Monday morning last. Lewis' futroo prospects look very bright. Some time ago he sold his farm near Tylersburg, Claiion County, for $2,500 cash. He immedi ately went West to look up a location, and selected Nebraska as his favorito State. He bought a homeftcak of 160 acres from a man there for $125 ; ou this place he will settle, and with his surplus cash he will put his farm in good shape, and have considerable money left. Few men go west to locate under as favorable circumstan ces as Mr. Widmer. Last Sunday as Mr. Otto Malsch was driving over Dutch Hill, in the direction of Panther Rock, and when ffilhin a few rods of Mr. Ikenburg's house, about five miles from town, his horse became frightened and ran off. Mr. M. was thrown out striking on his face, and inflicting several slight bruises. The horse continued his flight until he had about used up the vehicle and then stopped. The buggy being too badly racked to continue his trip Otto was obliged to return home, very much to his own disgust and tho dis appointment of a certain Panther Rock damsel. Last Saturday a gentleman about 50 years of age, named R. A.

He expects to float down the Allegheny, Ohio, and Mississippi to the mouth of Red river, thence up that river into Texas. The journey will be a long one, but with bis out-fit, there is no reason why it should uot be enjoyable. Mr. Cot bet hails from Jamestown, N. Y.

The subject of this notice was a person well known in this vicinity. She was a most estimable woman, and her deeds of charity and the friend ship for the poor and needy will long be remembered by hosts of friends who will lament her demise. Comin many years ago with her husband, Hamilton Stow, into the wilderness, she shared in his hardships betoro the days of rail roads here, and lived for a long lime nt what is now called Newtown Mills, a village of our county founded by the enterprise of Mr. Stow. About the year 1848 the family removed to Tionesta, where she with her husband were first and foremost in every good work, laboring to improve and build up schools and churches, they were a power for good. Another fact concerning this excellent woman was her patriotism. Her son, George, dying on tho field of battle for the cause of liberty, when his remains wero brought back to Tionesta to be buried, a monument was raised over the grave, and a mothers own affectionate hand penned those lines filled with love'and patriotism, which the artezian's hand engraved on the cold marble, as the mourning mother's affectionate tribute to that son. It was about the year 1865 that she removed with her hus band to Cincinnati, where she has re sided since. The memory of this lady will live brightly iu every heart. In brief she deserves a better tribute than my weak hands can pen, and that tribute is tho memory of her friends. WANZOR. At tho llural House, Tio nesta, Pa., Oct. list, 1S70, Mrs. Anna Wanzor, aged CI years, 2 mouths and 5 days. Mrs. Wanzor was the mother of Mrs. S. S. Hulings, aud M's.' C. A. Randall, with whom she has resided for many years. She was born in Frankliu, Pa , in the year 1818, and ha a brother residing near that place. For 30 years Mrs. "W. has been a great sufferer, and during that time has borne her sufferings with patient for titude ; about three months since she was taken much worse than usual, since which time she failed rapidly, until death came to her relief. She was buried iu the Cemetery at 2 p. m., Thursday. Forest National. Mrs. Wanzor was a woman of kind and charitable feelings, and while unable to do much herself, always had a kind word of sympathy for the needy. The friends aud relatives of the deceased have the sympathy of our community in their bereavement. BANNER g?!
