66 What I Know Ahqtal
The above is the title of a work -now
probably in contemplation by- Our,
townsman, Col: M. a quay. B e h as
been_moreuk,leas immersed int politics
for a numher of years past, and it is gen
erally understood in this vicinity that
ho now regards hh4revions occupation
as requiring more wear and teir of con
science than a person of hi. yeais ought
to endure, hence it itt, supposed-he has
about made up his mind to gradually
slide out of the political aretta i iked en
gige in the more quiet, healthful and
moral wrsult of improving the bovine
stock of the country, and;as opportuni
ties offer, to devote a portion of his time
to mechanical and agricultural produc
tions. Col. Quay is not the Best emi
nent politician of this country who . has
measurably retired from politics while .
yet in the prime of life,. and giyen his
attention to the cultivatloh of the soil,
the rearing of stock or the disembowel
ing of the earth. Horace Greely of the
I4w York Tribune furnishes an ilinstri
ous example of this assertion. Brother
Quay should therefore be encouraged in
his present determination by all of his
immediate neighbors, and the kindly
word 'should be extended to - him outside
of his own county and State. Ile takes ,
hold of his new occupation hoivever,
with commendable energy and tact, and
we shall not be,surprised if success
marks every step he takes in the new di
rection. - -Thus fat' his most sanguine
expectations have been more than -real
ized. To demonstrate this it will only
be necessary for us to give • few hay
Some six weeks ago the Colonel pur
chased a thorough-bred Alderney Cow in
en at El
Pa.!!
the East—we believe from the herd of
Gen. John A...llartranft of Montgomery
county. The sum paid for the noble an-
imal was $200.00. This we believe in
eluded the transportation to the Union
Depot at Pittsburgh. Now to show how
thoroughly Col. Q. understands the bus
h:Kiss in which he is engaging, and how
considerate and humane he proves to be
in it, it will be necessary to be a little
particular as to what occurred in bring
ing the wonderfully organized beast
from that point to Beaver. After reach
ing the Union Depot, the Colonel ordered
a halt, and the cow was allowed to rest
there for three days. At the expiration
of this time he dispatched a trusty man
with 812 in his pocket to bring her by
easy travel to Beaver, and to telegraph
progress from all convenient points
along the route. Here are in substance
the dispatches sent back and forth :
COIL oT 7TEI AND . LIDERTY STS.,
10:95, a. m.
Cow is going finely, and is in good
condition.
COLONEL QUAlre REPLY
"All right." Keep her on the pave
ment surd. M. S. Q.
tleol3 2w
COB. OF STH AND LIBERTY,]
10:55 a. m.
Cb/, 31. 8. Quay:—The cow is ev
idently worried about something. In
the last three rods she has switched her
tail four times. What shall I do?
COLONEL (WAY'S REPLY.
Take her into the nearest saloon and
give her a hot whisky punch. .If that
don't help her give her another
''punch;" if this does not stop the
switching take her to Hare's Hotel, and
see that she gets six loaves of bread and
two hams per day until further orders.
Eight glasses of ale for every twenty
four hours will be all the-drink she will
need. • M. S./Q.
A day or two after these telegrams
passed to and fro it seems Col. Quay and
his herdsman had a "little unpleasant
ness,, ' and the latter was ordered to
Beaver forthwith. ln due c9urso of
time another herdsman was procured
and Sent to Pittsburgh, and the sleek
Alderney soon put in an appearance on
our streets. Thus it will be seen that
the Colonel spared neither time or ex
pense in bringing his first thorough
bred into oprislidst. The cow is a f i ne
looking abut 2 feet four inches
In height, weighs about 350' pounds
green: 'it - data - 1g Ott te tie 1 33 ' , ARM' Old.
She had a calf a few weeks before the,
Colonel became her owner, and is there
fore fresh at the present time. Her
yieitl of milk is about two pints per day
or onevpint at each milking. Just here,
however, we tread on delicate ground,
but onr duty as a faithful journalist will
admit of no shirking, and we proceed to
give facts Though they do take us quite
near the Colonel's household. Major
Richard Maloney, than whom a better
hesrted young maul can hardly any
where be found, had the immediate care
of the cow for'some time, but Col. Quay
not being satisfied with her lacteal flow,
found fault with the Major's care of the
animal and insisted upon a change in
her feed. The Major had been giving
her the very best of hay and the richest
chop-feed that could be bought, while
,Col. QuiZy believed that for lacteal par-,
poses nothing could equal coarse sand
and saw dust mixed. The Colonel of
course carried his point, and he now hes
the sole care of the dazzling beatity him
self. lie is quite confident that this
change in her food will finally induce
her to "letdown" sufficient for the whole
neighborhood. We trust his anticipa
tions will be realized.
After giving the bovine species much
thought, and making himself familiar
with the whole subject, Col. quay is de
cidedly of the opinion that the Chester
Wtkites aro the best milkers, but at the
same time he has no doubt but that the
Cotswold and Merinos are far ahead of all
others for beef. While the Colonel's
ideas of stock at Ilrst,view seem a little
bold and unique, they will prove, on a
closer study, to be sound and of immense
practical value to the stock raising com
munity. His book, therefore, should
be in the hands of every farmer and
stock grower in the land. Its cost, we
are persuaded, will be within the reach
of all.
As we have elsewhere hinted in Ibis
article the Colonel is giving a small
share of his attention to mechanical pro
ductions. lie has Of late taken a lively
interest in the manufacture of tire clay
brick, and has accordingly embarked in
their manufacture, but it seems his ideas
and the ideas of his partners do not Re
cord. They persist in believing that
brick aro made of clay, while the Colonel
as stoutly insists that they are manufac
tured from wood cut while the sap is in
the ascent. But on this point more anon.
Trustee Meeting.—.l Nlf inel•t-
Mg of the Hoard of Trustees of the Semi
nary and Institute is desired for Thursday
afternoon, at '2 o'clock, at the Seminary
building. The proposed amendments h
the charter and the plans for the addi
tional buildings will then be considered.
The Missing Found—A Lost
Father Turns Up.—Our older citi
zens will remember a good, but wild
fellow, named John Wilson; who lived
some twenty years ago in Fallowfield
township. He *as a famous fox-hunter
and was always on some wild chase, or
up for "fun" in almost any shape—so
much no that ho was familiarly known
as "Devil John" by his friends. He
was marrie ' a to a Miss Bendel, also of
Fallowfield township, and lived with
her until they were blessed with six
children, who are now grown up, and
are respectable people of this neighbor
hood. But John got tired of his wife,
babies, and foxes, and persuaded his
wife to sell her property, got possession
of the funds, and one night he skipped to
parts unknown. His poor wife left
with her family of little ones, and no
money, was destitute indeed, and the
infidility of her husband so wore upon
her, wind. that she became crazed, and
ended . lierds.ilt. in the insane department
pf the County 'Alms House. So ended
the first chapter in bilsWilaistory.

[From the Greenville Advance.]
Rev. J. R. Brittaia.—A few weeks
since, Rev. J. R. 13rittain, pastor of •the
U. P. Church of this place, announced
from his pulpit that he nad received a
unanimous invitation from the U. P.
Congregation of Cleveland, Ohio, to be
come their pastor. Tilts invitation svas
accompanied by a very flattering offer
of liberal support, in case of acceptance.
Imutediately after the above announce
ment was made, steps were taken by his
congregation in this place , toj n fully
quaint him for their feeling d -desire
touching the matter in question,andAoth
a letter almost unanimously ifigqedibir
the members of the congregation sVas
addressed to him earnestly 'Prottating
against the demission of his •Chtirge in
this place, and cordially flaking him. to
tilt:nein with them, On last Sabbath thj
his pulpit that ho had after mature de
liberation concluded not to accept the
invitation of the Cleveland brethren,
and intended to remain in charge of his
present congregation. This matter has
developed the facts satisfactorily, that
there is a very strong attachment sub
sisting between the pastor and people
of the congregation referred to, and an
unusual degree of unanimity of opposi
tion on the part of the congregation -to
any change of relatiunshipbetween them.
The following is the text of the letter
referrea to :
To the Rer. J. It. Brittain, Pastor of the
1% P. Congregation, Greenville :
DEAR PASTOR:—We, whose names
are hereunto attached, members of the
congregations to which you have so a.!-
ceptabiy ministered hi word and ordi
nance, and among whom you have so
eiticientiv labored,for the past five years,
having learned that our brethren in
Christ of the U. P. Congregation of Cle
veland, have unanimously invited you
to become their pastor, and fearing lest
our silence may be construed iuto indif
ference concerning the matter. take this
method of assuring you that we have
beard with deep concern tbo announce
ment above relhrred to, and that while
recognizing the high compliment to our
pastor contained in the above Invitation,
we would most respectfully yet earn
estly, protest against your aCeeptanco of
the same. Among the reasons wo would
urge in support of our protest may he
named the gratifying fact that the rela
tionship of pastor and people which has
subsisted between us since you became
our pastor, has evidently boon signally
blessed by the Great llead of the Chureh.
Our congregation has enjoyed under
your acceptable ministrations a high
degree of prosperity both spiritually and
temporally, and feeling confident that
the relation Ship, in the future, will be
xUll more abundantly blessed, we would
most seriously deprecate any thing with
in human control which would tend to
mar its harmony or threaten its sever
ance.
In addition to this we take pleasure in
assuring you of our high regard for your
e4timable wife, whose earnest piety,
kindness of heart, and prudence of con
duct, have greatly endeared her to your
congregation. ,
Hoping that it may be found consist
ent with the will of the Great Head of
the church, and in harmony with your
desire in the premises, after mature de
liberation, to continue the relationship
now subaiating between us, an .iyith
assurances of the highest perso I re
gard, wo remain, yours In the born l'of a
Chritian fellowship.
—As a further inducement the mem
bers of Mr. Bnttain's congregation, do
nated him between $4OOOl and Vren.oo
on Thanksgiving Day. Rev. Brittain is
a native of Beaver and a son of
I ..t ph Brittain, esq., at present one of our
l'ounty Commissioners. We need scarce
ly say that it allorqs us pleasure to see the
labors of one who was born and reared in
our midst, so highly appreciated by those
among whom he is now officiating.

'ibis hint was not lest on Ralph, who
speedily changed his quartets by climb
ing up to a secluded Shelflike ledge
above the spring. H . ; was none too
soon, for Pete Jone..*d *Hank Banta
were soon looking al4trotind the spring
for him, while he held attwenty-pound
stone over their lieu% ready to, drop on
thorn in case they should think of look
ing on the edge abovp.
When fiN crowd Were gone Ralph
knew that one road was open to him.
He could follow dowhlho creek tts (nif
ty, and thence he ntbt escape. But,
traveling down to (Aplty, be 'debated
whether it was best to escape. To lice
was to confess his guilty to make himself
an outlaw, to put an . insurmountable
barrier between himself and Hannah,
whose terror-stricken And anxious face
as she stood by the brook-willowslaun
ted him now, and was :an involuntary
witness to her love.
Long before he reached (nifty his.
mind was made up tilla flee another
mile. He knocked at the door of Squire
Underwood. But- Squire Underwood
was also a doctor, and had been called
away. Ho knocked ajtho door of Squire
Doolittle. But Squire Doolittle had
gone to Lewisburg. 'He was about to
give up ail hope of being able to surren
der himself to the law when ho Met
Squire Hawkins, who had come over to
clifty to avoid responsibility for the ill
deeds
of his neighbors which ho was
powerless to prevent.
"Is that you, Mr.
,Hartsoek ?"
"Yes. and I want yon to'arrest me and
try moo hero in Clifty."
The "prosecuting attorney" (for so the
States attorney is called in Indiana,)
had been sent for Lim nlirht before.
Ralph refused all legal help. It was not
wise to reject counsel, but all his blood
was up, and he deglar' that he would
not be cleared by hegal nibbles. if his
11
innocence yore not ma e evident to ev
erybOdy, he would rather not be acquit
ted on a prell 'ninon_ examination.. Ile
would go over to the Circuit court and
have the 'matter sifted to the bottom.
But he would havo - .l4ieu pleased had
his uncle offered him counsel, though he
would have declined it. He would have
felt better to have had a letter from !mine
somewhat different from the one ho 're
ceived from his Aunt Matilda by. the
hand of the prosecuting attorney. . It
was not very encouraging or very Hybl
pathetic, though it was very character
istic. ( . .
"Dear Ralph :
"This is what I have always been
afraid of. I warned•you faithfully the.
last time I saw you. Ily skirts are clear
of your blood. I can not eimsent •for
uncle to appear as vont counsel or to - go
your bail. . You know how much. It
would [Wore him in the county, and - to
has no right to suffer for your evil acts.
0 my dear nephew ! for the sake of your
poor,,dead mother—'
We nor shall know 4 what tile rest' of
that letter was. Whenever Aunt Matil
da got to Ralph's poor, dead mother in
her conversation, Ralph tan out of the
house. And now that his poor, dead
mother was again made to do service in
his aunt's pious rhetoric, ho landed the
letter on the hot coals before htin, and
watched it vanish into smoke with grim
satisfaction.
Awiu,
Ralph was a little afraid of a mob.
But Clifty was better than Flat Creek,
and Squire ElaWkilaS, with all his faults,
loved justice, and had a profound res
pect for the majesty of the law,and pro
found respect for his own roajeatv when
sitting as a court representing (he law.
Whatever Maneuvers he might resort to
in business affairs In order to avoid a
conflict with his lawless ineighbors, -be
was courageous and inflexible on the
bench. The Squire was the better part
of him. With the co-operation of the
constable, he bad organized a poB3e o f
men who could be depended on to en
force tho law against a mob.
By the Lime the trial opened in .tbe
large school-house in cling at eleven
o'clock, all the surroundingeountry bad
emptied its population Into Clifty, and
all Flat Creek was on band ready to tes
tify to something. Those whoknow thA
least appeared to know the most, and
were prodigal of their eignitleant winks
and nods. Mrs. Means bad always sus

" No, you didn't," answered the wit:
ness, with a tone and a toss of the head
that lot the cat out, and set the court
room in a giggle. Bronson saw that he
was gaining nothing, and now resolved
to follow thu line which Small had Indi
cated. - -
Pete Jones was called, and swore point
blank that he heard Ralph go out of the
house soon after he went to bed, and that
he heard him return at two lathe morn
ing. This 'testimony was given without
hesitation, and made a great impression
against Ralph in the minds of the Jus
tices. • Mrs.• Jones, a poor brow-beaten
Woman, came, on the stand in a'fright
ened way, and swore to the same lies as
her hiisband., Ralph cross-questioned
her, but her part had been wail learned.
There seemed, now, little- hope for
Ralph. But just at this moment, who
should stride into the schooLhouse but
Pearson, the one-legged; old soldier
basket-maker. He had crept home the
night before,l"•to see of *eel° woman

with many 'allusions to the time he
lit at Lundy's Lane, and some indignant
remarks about the pack of thieves that
driv him off, and a passing tribute to
Miss Martha Hawkins, and sundry oth
er digressions, in w hich ho had to be

drunk whisky at Welch's store that
night, And how Wefeh's whisky was all-.

much, and how he'd felt kinder gin aout

how, as he s'posed, the boys had crated
him, and how ho thought it were all-tir

"Ldeeline to answer," said Ralph.
"Of course, Dio not want the prisoner
to criminatehimself," said Bronson sig
nifiamtly. ,
During this last passage Bud had come
in; but, to Ralph's dhappointmenti he
remained near the door, talking to Wal
ler Johnson, who had come with him.
The magistrates p ut their heads together
to fix- the amou t of bail; and, as they
differed, talked pr some minutes. Sala!

He could hardly have been afraid of
Ralph's acquittal. He may have been a

had been mentioned, and at the signifi
cant look of Ralph and he Probablymeant
to excite indignation enough against the
,school-master to break the force of his
speech, and. secure the lynching of the
prisoner, by people outside his gang.
Ile rose, and asked the court in gentlest
tones to hear him. He had no personal
interest in this-trial, except his interest
in the welfare of his old schoolmate, Mr.
Hartsook. He was grieved and disap
pointed to find the evidenceagainst him
so damaging, and he would' not for the
world add a feather to it, if itt,were not
that his own name had been twice allud
ed to by the defendant, and by hls friend
and perhaps his confederate, John Pear
son. He was pre pa red to swear that-he
was not over in FU.t., Creek the- night of
the robbery later than ten o'clock, and
while the statements of the two persons
alluded to, whether maliciously intend
ed or not, could not implicate him at all,
he thought perhaps this lack of veracity
in their statements might be of weigld,
in determining some other points. He
therefore anggeste*-he could. only sug

Squire Hawkins, having adjusted his
teeth, his wig, and his glass eye, thank

ble, and thought best to put John Pear
son under arrest before proceeding fur
ther. Mr. Pearson was therefore arrest
ed, and was heard to mutter something
about a 'passel of thieves," when the
court warned him to be quiet.
Walter Johnson was then called.' But
before giving his testimony, I must crave
the reader's patience while I-go back to
some things which happened nearly a
week before, and which will serve to
make It intelligible.

The new County Treasurer.—
The County Treasurer elect, Charles. P.
Wallace, eL.q.. moved to Beaver last
week, preparatory to taking charge of
the money bags of the county. He will
be sworn into office on the ;Ist of Janua

Alfred Cocikmau.—ll is father,Rev.
tieorge ti. Cookman, was one of the
most brilliant of the past generation of
Methodist preachers. He was lost on
the steamer President about thirty years
ago, when all aboard were buried 'be
neath the wages of the Atlantic, and
never beard of any more. The son, just
deceased, wasfor two years stationed in
the Christ M. E. Church in Pittsburgh%
and had gathered to himself the affection
of those for Whom he labored, and of all
who knew him. "The people heard him
gladly." Be was converted to God in
his tenth year, in Carlisle. He began to
preach at an early ago. Admitted into
Conference in 184 S, when only twenty
one years of age,and died when forty-four
years old. He had traveled two years
under the Presiding Elder however, pri
or to joining tho Philadelphia Confer
ence. He tilled the pulpit in some of
the most important churches in our con
nection, as at Pittsburgh, Philadelphia,
Not,/ York, Wilmington, Delaware, and
N ewark, New Jersey. He died as he
lived, trusting the Saylor. Four weeks
before he died he had preached his last
sermon from these words, "We do all
fade as a leaf." Holding up In his hand
a withered leaf, as he was passing out of
the house, he saidAo a brother, "I feel
that the text and preacher are much
alike; 'it may be my last testimony.'"
He had a dream that his father, his eld
est brother, and a boy they had lost,
each met him, saying, "Here comes Al
fred, all washed in the blood of the
lamb." He said to his 'wife, "If permit
ted, I will be your guitrdian angel, and
open the gates of pearls for your admis
sion." Ile said to his sister, "If I could
have life for asking it, I would say to
Jesus, 'Lo as thou pleasest.'" And,
holding up with one hand, the other
paralyzed , hand; be said, "It belonged to
Jesus." His final words to his mother
were, "I am tnor‘indebted to your
prayers, and counsel, and example than
aught beside, ,tc. When the chariot
came, his last words were, "rm sweep
ing through the gates,—washed in the
blood of the lamb." At the foot of his
coffin was placed, a cross of dowers, and
at the head, a crown.

was the nearest railroad point to - the Oil
Regions and it was not an uncommon
thing in those days to see eight or ten
thousands strangers in this town at a
time when lodgings, even of a plain
character, and room at the dinnertable,
were at a premium, and lucky was the
fellow who found a spot where he could
draw his muddy boots and rest for the
night.
Those days have passed away and for
ever, much no doubt to the joy or the
residents of the town. Tice churches
here are probably the beet of any town
in Western Pennsylvania—the Metho
dist is a very imposing structure, with
lecture and class rooms in the first story
and audience room above, while the
Presbyterian has its lecture. , and audi

soldiers who fell on the field of battle--a
long list of them. The Pittsburghers
declined to inscribe the name of Hayes
on the monument, claiming the honor of

nothing daunted when the monument
came—the citizens had his name inscrib
ed along with the other hundreds already
upon the entablature of the monument.
The Exchange Hotel is first-class and
well conducted, and the traveler finds
there a comfortable stopping place at
not extravagant charges. Many portions
of Venango county have learned of our
quiet town of Beaver and its beautiful
surroundings, through thef Seminary
and Institute, which is so highly esteem

vantages that are provided , There and
especially the home-like character of the
school, commend it to those who send
abroad for educational purposes. Tho
new Seminary Hall for boys is especi •

they cannot prepare their boys for busi

we know it is not surpassed in .thor
oughtiess, comfort or safety, no? in the
beauty or healthfulness of its surround

Rabbit Hunting.—On last Wed
nesday night an inch or so of snow fell
in this locality. On the succeeding
morning nearly every rod of territory
within a mile or two of Beaver, had a
hunter upon it, intent en catching a rab

about twenty hunters for each rabbit in
the vicinity. the number captured was
not large.
