A numiieh of rafts havo passed down

never disappeared more quietly than
this year.

We havo been shown a lemon, grown
by a gentleman of this town Which is
of most unusual size. It measured
11x11? inches, and weighed ono pound.
Tho treo bore several others of nearly

As a remedy for painful wounds, it is
recommended to take a pan or shovel
with burning coals and sprinkle upon
them common brown sugar, and hold
tho wounded part in tho smoke. In a
few minutes tho pain will bo allayed
and recovery proceeds rapidly.
An Indiana editor makes a pathetic
oppeal to Ills readers, saying: "If there
is anything you know, that is worth
knowing, that wo ought to know, and
you know we don't know, please let us
know it." And that is the sort of thing
wo wish to know, you know.
A Lamp oxploded in tho liouso of
Mrs. Adams, on Main htreet, last week
and very nearly produced a eonilagra

guished by sorao neighbors who went
to tho assistance of Mrs. Adams, aud
some articles of clothing wcro all that
wore destroyed.
Laborers aro hard at work on tho
North Branch canal, widening and
deepening tho ditch. This will onablo
boats of larger tonnago to use tho canal,
and will better accomtnodato steam

work. Tho water lias already beon let
to the West Branch canal.
An attempt was recently made to
burn tho lino music hall in Lewisburg
by saturating tho floors and stairways
with coal oil. Fortunatoly tho incen

so that tho tiro went out. Tho scoun
drel who mado tho attempt has not yet
been discovered.
We havo received a communication
Blgncd "A Citizen" in relation to "Lo
cust Township Institutes," but as tho

not publish it. Wo havo constantly as
serted our position on this point and
shall udhero to it. Communications
must bu signed by thu wrltor, not for
publication, but as ovldoncoof tho good
Intent of tho writer and for tho protec

The Town Election. Wo under
stand that the election of Dennis, tho
colored Councilman, at tho lato town
eloctlon will bo contested at tho coming
torm nf court, and no doubt tho roturn
will bo sot aside ns falsa on tho grounds
that tho tickets voted for him wero illo
gal. In this caso a very small trick,
very stupidly executed, will fail of its
purpose, and all tho persons duly elect
od by lawful votes will constitute tho
council for tho coming year.
An Alabama lion has laid eovornl
black eggs, causing great consternation,
They say It Is tho sign of a coining ne

Thero was a block egg laid In Blooms

A llat-boat was capsized whilst cross

CoAij dealers aro In much bettor

Wo don't know how tho doctors feel

An editor whoso memory is of tho

We call attention to tho advertise

In tho present rago for naming every
imaglnablo stylo of thing nnimato or
inanimate a "Dolly Varden" wo aro
suro that somo ono will eventually al
lude to tho late snow storm as bearing
that titlo. To bo in timo, theroforo wn
would stato that tho "Dolly Varden"
storm was of nature's nowest and pret
tiest-patterns though not ono of hor
most comfortable dresses.
This most extraordinary winter gavo
fresh evidence of vitality by a snow
storm of fair dimensions, on Monday.
Tho ground wa-s whitened, although
tho Hakes melted rapidly. In tho far
West snow has fallen in astonishing
quantities, blocking up railroads and
destroying life by avalanches. If this
sort of thing keeps on, strawberries will
beeomo a fall fruit and all apples will
bo winter ones. It lias been many
years sinco snow has visited this part
of tho country at so lato a ditto as tho
lOth of April.
Very nearly a flro occurred at Espy,
on Monday, at tho storo of John W.
Hoffman. A lot of rags had been sort
ed and wero lying partly on tho floor
and partly in a largo box. In tho room
was an old stovo which was seldom used
but on this day a flro had been lighted
in It, which in somo mannerset flro to the
rags. Mr. Sehug, who was working in
tho garden behind tho building, noticed
tho sraoko and gavo tho alarm. On en
tering tho room tho flames wcro seen
caching nearly to the ceiling. Prompt
and energetic measures wcro taken and
tho flro finally extinguished.
We havo received a communication
from Ceutralia asking why tho Colum
ihan lias not been sent to tho writer
sinco April 1st. In reply wo would say
that. sinco tho establishment of tho Co-
IjUmihan in January, 1807, our Contra-
a friend lias not paid a cent and in ac
cordance with a rulo adopted by us wo
nivo droppetl his namo, as wo further-
noro intend to do in all such cases after
tho ensuing May court. A newspaper
ofllco calls for cash payments for labor
and material and wo cau.not afford to
furnish papers gratuitously. Wo trust
that those whoso names tiro dropped
will appreciate our motives.
It has been said that crlnio is epide
mic and it would seem thatcaroUswess
Is also, it wo aro to heliovo tho reports
of the papers from various-parts of thu
State, and that meanness is the suro ac
companiment of carelessness. We havo
read lately of a dozen different cases
whero men havo lost largo sums of
money nnd havo bestowed on the Sud
ors therouf tho most insignificant To
wards. Tho sums lost vary from 5000
to $3000 and tho rowards from ton cents
to ono dollar. If these stories nro truo
it may bo argued that tho mean men of
tho community havo all tho money and
that tho poor ones nro all honest. But
it is singular to say tho least that tho
dropping of well filled pocket hooUs
should havo become so general.
On Friday night luntConstabln Wood
ward provided two votaries of Bacchus
with lodgings in tho Lock-up and on
Saturday accommodated James Green,
tt gentleman of tho African persuasion,
in a llko manner. Mr. Green lias Hinted
his Intention to bo tho noxt Chief of Po
lice of tho town, (elated probably by
tho election of ono of his race to tho dig
nity of a Councilman) and wo aro thero
foro constrained to boliovo that ho
voluntarily entered the gloomy por
tals of tho lock-up in order to itcquiru
nn experience as to its comfort ami con
venience, which would hoof use to him
in his ofllcial capacity. History has fur
nished us with similar examples of self
assumed discomfort, to result ufter
wards in tho public welfare. Wo pro
sumo that tho thoughtful and dignified
cltlzona who voted for Mr. Dennis will
confer a llko favor upon Mr. Green,

LAMON In Hrlarcrcolt township, on Saturday,
tho lltlf lust,, James Lainou, aged 81 yotrs,
Mr. Lauion was tho father of William
Lamon, our County Treasurer, and a
man of integrity and intelligence Ills
llfo lias bccn'inalnly spenton his farm.
Ho was universally respected by his
neighbors and dlod at a rlpo ago with
tho knowledge of a well spent llfo of no

A man In New Jersey, whllo moving
last week, placed a hog In n pen fapnn a
wagon in such u condition that tho hog
was compelled to rido backward. When
ho reached his destination tho animal
was dead, ills death being occasioned, it
is said, by tho manner in which ho was
being conveyed.
Tho nbovo statement fills in with un
bounded astonishment. Wo havo known
of delicate women who could not etuluro
riding backward but havo never heard
ol a pig wlioso nervous organization was
so easily upset. What renders tho affair
still moro dlfllcult to comprehend Is
that tho pig was notonly raadosick,but
died from tho ride. Tho fact in wo don't
boliovo It; tho pig demised from some
other cause. Probably ho was not used
to driving nboutand was scared to death
by tho condition ot tho Jersey roads.
Take your homo paper; it gives you
inoro uuwa of immediate interest than
New York or other papers; it talks for
you when other localities belle you; It
stands up for your rlghte;you always
have a champion in your homo paper,
and those who stand up for you should
certainly be well sustained. Your
Interests aro kindred and equal, and
you must riso or fall together. There
fore, it is your interest to support your
homo paper; not grudgingly, but in a
liberal spirit; as t, pleasure, not as a
disagreeable duty, but as an investment
that will nmply pay the expenditure."
Tin: forests of many of our States are
rapidly diminishing, and this is par
ticularly stated of tho plno forests of
Pennsylvania. For ten years past tho
consumption of timber to supply the
numerous saw-mills of Williamsport
alone has been immense. Tho amount
of logs rafied out of tho boom for tho
present season will cut over 210,000,000
feet ol boards. It is safo to assumo that
300,000,000, feet aro annually manufac
tured at Williamsport. If wogo back ten
years wo havo tho cnormott s aggregato
of 3,000,000,000 feet. That this fearful
consumption of tho raw material can
contiuuo for many moro years is im
possible. But thu loss of tho supply of
lumber is not tho only evil result of de
nuding tho country of foresls. Tall trees,
by detaining mists and fogs until they
havo timo to form rain clouds, exerciso
an important influence In determining
tho quantity of' rain for tho year. A
Stato which destroys its trees will soon
suffer in climate.

merits as a newspaper,!ind tho unbouglit

It is personally gratifying to us to be
ablo to stato howovcr, that our circu

an cvidenco that our labors and expense
in behalf of tho organization aro not

this moro from a parly than a personal
reason, becauso it evinces a lively inter

takably shows that our friends are fully
alivo to tho issues at stake the present
year.
As a party wo aro solid and united,

Negroes in Politics. For soveral
years past tho negroes of tho South
havo controlled its politics, but the
"tidal wave" is now extending north.
Their organ, a now-paper published at
Harrisburg, call Our SVationul Progress,
instances the fact that Ohio has sent one
negro to tho Kepublican National Con
vention, and insists that the negroes of
this Stato ought to havo at least two, if
not three, delegates. The editor puts
tho cause thus:
"Let colored men insist upon their
recognition and respect for their polit
ical power.
"Tho issue must be made, and it

The Castorla regulates tho system ; cures con
