It's getting about tbat time of year when wo may expert a spell of weather 'most ny minute. : A gentleman found a pocket knifa on election day and left it; with us. The owner cau ha've it Tiy calling at this onice. Ben Caldwell, Jim Swailcs and Dan Black, started for tbo "hppy hunting grounds" on Salmon creek this morning. , . Mrs. C. M. Bull of Fredonia, N.

Shrivcr, f Tionesta township, killed a fawn on Monday which beats anything brought to this place for some time. It weighs over 70 pounds dressed. -Paste this in your hat: The river at this place i'roz over on the night of Nov. 3, 1879. An occurrence which the "oldest inhabitant" must corneas is beyond his recollection. -A flack of 20 or 30 ducks in the river yesterday morning were severely bombarded by somu of our citizens. Whether any of them (the ducks) sue- curued to tho seize we did not learn. As will be seen clsowhere in to day's pnper, President Hayes has Udued his Thauksgiving proclamation. A shooting match for turkeys would now be in order. Who'll take the initiative fctcp ? Four holidays will come on Sun day in tho course of the year 1880: February 22d, Decoration Day, Jul) 4lh, and Christmas. Tliero are five Sundays in Vebruary, which will not occur again till 1905. The National debt was reduced $10,352,900, during the tuonlh of October, uecordiug to the official state ment of the Treasurer. And still the fanatics cry that the debt is daily increasing. " The pigeoJis are feeding in the oak wood beyond Meadville. So say those who have beea there for the pur pose of netting. . They are said to be receiving a warn reception at the hands of the gunners of tbat sectioo. Dr. Coburn will please accept our thanks for a very choice piece of venison, of his own killing. Doc, if you intended that for a bone for us to gnaw on the Republican defeat, we fear you left too much meat on it. Prof. Brockway informs us that tho teachers' institute will convene on the 15th of December this year. New features which will be introduced promise to make this one of the most interesting sessions over held in this couuty. . Jamieson & Copeland'a mill at Tubbs Ilun steamed up on Monday. They are now sawing out enough hem lock to board up and roof the building. In the course of a week or ten days business will be booming in that local ity. " Andrew Saltsgiver, the boy who was so badly injured by the accidental shooting by his brother, an account of which we gave last week, is still alive, but no hopes of his recovery is enter tained, and his death can only be a matter of a short time. A new mill is being built on the headwaters of Salmon Creek, near Russell's mill, in this, county. Mr. John Shoup is the owner, aud has let the contract of building the mill and manufacturing the lumber to some Ohio parties whose names we did not learn. The material U all on the ground, arid tho mill is nearly comple ted. Its capacity for turning out lumber will be from 20,000 to 25,000 feet daily. We have delayed publication somewhat in order to give the official vote of the county. Of course, there is very little comfort to be drawn from the result by the Republicans, but we always try to give our readers the facts, let them be for or against. Gen. Joseph Hooker, "Fighting Joe," as his soldiers loved to call him, died in New York on Fridgy Oct. 31, very suddenly. The news of his death was received with sorrow all over the country, and his memory will long be cherished in the hearts of the Ameri can people. . A first-class tracking snow fell on Sunday and Monday nights, and several deer havo already met an un timely death on account of it. Pat Black brought in a fawn Monday even ing, and wounded another big buck. He Bays be saw no less than ten deer, but his old gon "snapped" too often. Mr. V, E. Mabie of the Commer cial Hotel, Erie, spent Friday and Saturday of last week in town. Prank's avoirdupois has increased about 20 pouuds since he went to Erie, from which we'd suppose- the bracing lake breezes agree with him. He reports business flourishing, and the family enjoying good health . Tidioute is again agitating the tanneiy business, and Brother White of the News is indefatigable in bis e?brts to arouse the citizens to a proper appreciation, of the, peculiar advautages that place possesses for ao enterprise or this kind. If Tidioute can accommodate one tannery Tio nesta can accommodate a half dozen. Laat Saturday, Ed. Kiuer of Dutch Hill came near cutting his "be-gosh head off." He was working on a tim ber job on Leinantation creek, and while walking along with his ax ou his shoulder, he slipped and fell strikiug with the back of his neck on the sharp blade of the ax. He suffered considerably from loss of blood, but is all right now. The boys were out in full force on Hallow E'en, but no very serious.mis- cuiet was commuted. A lew signs were removed, some old gutter rubbish was piled on the sidewalks, a. few emply beer bottles were suspended to the latch-strings of some of the citizens' doors and one or two buildings were laid on their backs; further than this we heard of uo depredations being committed. W will esteem it n favor if our citizens wil keep us posted regarding the arrival or departure of friends and visitors. It is impossible for us at all times to learn who arrives or departs, and thus we frequently omit these little personal menlionicgs which are of much iuterest to our readers. It will be an assistance to us, and prove inter esting to friends and visitors. Remem ber, it is as easy to contribute as to criticise. ' ' --Musings on the first snow: -On Nov. 3d fell, "the beautiful snow," as I would have every patron know ; and note in his book, for a future look, that on this day, the driver did out with his sleigh, for "over the hills and far away ;" and the little bells, of winter tells, while the hunter shoulders his gun and goes to the woods to have his fun ; While iu summer be did snap, his piece 'round a Rogfdus trap, and a glass ball, in pieces did fall,' to the 6bot guna click ; oh ! 'twas quite a trick; but now, ho! fur the woods, when the game is good, and fat, you may bet your bat, under a winter fcky "when everything is lovely and the goose hangs high." " Parker City has met with another most disastrous fire. Last Thursday morning at 3 o'clock flames were discovered in the Sraullen building situated on River avenue, and before the fire could be extinguished eighty- seven buildings were consumed, the most prominent of which were the Mead House, Frisbee Hotel, Spain's Hardware Store, Krosskop's Drug Store, aud the Parker Weekly office owned by Mr. G. A. Needle. Very few of the coutents of these buildings were saved. A great .many families were rendered homeless. The total loss will amount to nearly $200,000. The surrounding country has been appealed to for aid, and the call is being responded to quite liberally. Considerable of the burnt district will be rebuilt, but by no means will the town fully recover from Ibis great disaster.

Our Wooden Wedding occurs, oa next Monday evening, Nov. 10. We would be pleased to see all our friends at our home in Tionesta, Pa., on that evening. We trust all who see or bear of this notice, will consider them selves personally invited. Rev. and Mrs. A. O. Stone. Election Notes. Election is over and everybody breathes easier. How does the mult strike you ? It was the quietest election held in this place for many years. Not a drunk mart could be seen- on the streets. Something which has not happened "within the recollection of the oldest inhabitant." The greenbackers are by all odds the boss "button-holers," as witness the returns. Several voters lost their votes by removal and non-payment of taxes. Hence a good deal of grumbling and profanity, Sam. Irwin was a real "loby" man yesterday. He. went around all day with his pocket crammed full, and was not in the least stingy with them. Several citizens who tried thetn very soon, "cast up accounts." We were among the "sea-sick." Sara., where on earth did you get "them stogies?" One man stepped up to the window and said he would "vote as he shot," whereupon a bystander suggasted that he turn his back to the window. Quite. a number of the "regulars" missed it by not getting their bottles filled tbe night before election. ' A man with a bundle of ready-made button-holes would have done a thriving business yesterday. J. L. Rohr, editor of the Cochran ton TrCgon, has established a depart ment in his paper in which he agrees to answer all communications asking for information. The following is one of them in his last week's issue. "A. H. D." of Deckardsville writes ; "I am a farmer, pretty well-to do, and would like to take your paper, and will, if you will guarantee my investment safe. What shall I do?" Ans Dol you idiot, why keep your money and borrow your neigh bor's paper. We don't want your subscription. If salvation was offered you to-day, you would want a stronger guarantee than the crucified Christ nailed ou the cross, as a guarantea tbat bis dying was what he meant it to be. You are deep in the roots of prej udiced ignorauce, old buckwheat, and all tho light that the intelligent 19th century has been throwing around in the woild, not a ray has yet reached you. When you can furnish us satis factory proof that the Lord died for such as you, we will guarantee for you a year's subscription to this paper. The following challeuge from Jim Kerstetter, of Beaver City, to Bogar- d us, appears in a recent number of tbe Chicago Field : Beaver City, Pa. Editor Chicago Field : Having noticed a challenge from Captain A. II. Bocardus to shoot anv six men a match in New York, breaking one thousand balls to their eight hundred, if Captain Bogardus will shoot me a match at Bradford, Mckean county, l a., on these conditions, I will meet him in a mutch for ono hundred and fifty dollars a side, allowing captain Bogardus to name tho-date. James Kerstetter. Kribbs Farm P. O., Clarion Co. Pa The captain has accepted the chal lenge, but the time has not yet been agreed upon. Thanksgiving Proclamation. Ihe iollowing proclamation was issued by the President on Monday, Nov. 3, 1879 : At no recurrence ot the season which tho devout habit of religious people has made an occasion for giving thank. to Almighty God and humbly invoking His continued favor has the material prosperity enjoyed by our whole country been more conspic uous, more manifold or more universal. During the past vear alo unbioken peace with all foreign nations, the general prevalence ot domestic tran qui! ity, the supremacy and security of our great institutions of civil aud re ligious freedom, have gladdened the hearts ot our people and confirmed their attachment to their government, which tho wisdom and courage of our ancestors so filly framed, and the wis dotn and courage of their descendants have so firmly maintained, to be the habitation of' liberty and justice to successive generations. Now, therefore, I, Rutherford B, IUyes, President of tho United States, do appoint Thursday, the 27th day of November instant, as a day of national tbanksnivlnt and prayer; and I earnsstly recommend that, withdraw ing themselves from secular carc9 and labors, the people of the United States do meet together on that day in their respective places of worship, there to give thanks and praise to Almighty God for his mercies, and to devoutly beseech their continuance. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Seal. Done at tbe City of Wash ington this third day of November, in the year of onr Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy nine, and of the independence of the United States the one hundred and fourth. Rutherford B. Hayes. By the President. Wm. M. Evartt, Secretary of Slate. Worthy of Attention.
