VALUABLE DISCOVERY
Die Nittiitiv Yd! lev \ nriegnled Mar
bit—Fiuc Sjscciiuen* in the Hands
of a Gtullfroau of Willintnsport.
Our esteemed fellow citiaen, Ges>. A.
Cramer, E>q . a year or more ago secured
m the cast end of Niitanyvalley, about
two mile* from Mill Hall, Clinton countv,
a large tract of laud, having therein ex
tensive bed* ot variegated marble of di
verse qualities and figure*. These marble
quarries are located en the south-east side
of Fishing creek The layers of marble
are very regular, ranging from two to four
leet thick, and lying almost horizontal, in
a perfectly sound condition, and in such
petition—and under the circumstances—
the rocks remained at "borne," and there
fore "live."
The quality, variety and favorable loca
tion of these rocks render their location
exceedingly valuable. The growing de
mand for wrought stone, ornamental
building, and monumental purposes, will
doubtless call into u?e alt the variety ot
marble in the quarrie* in a short space of
time.
Similar rocks may be found in aii our
limestone valleys, but being disturbed
and broken, are worthless, and uol practi
cable for manufactuiing. A gentleman
who has devoted a great deal of hi* time
for the past t> er.ty-tivo years on the sub
ject of geology, and who i- quite tamiliar
with the various limestoue formations
throughout Pennsylvania, says that he
ha* not found anywhere similar rock* un
der *> favorable condition for manufac
turing, Qii.l hi* opinion t* that if those
rocks were properly prepared, they would
find a market over a n_mh>r of thp tate,
as he i* persuaded they could bo
and manufactured very cheaply ; and be
ing only two miles from railroad andcana!
transportation, could be transported to all
points at *uc'n rates as to afford them to
builders and monumental marble men at
very reasonable price* and yet pay largely
to the company or party producing them.
Some flue dresed specimens of this mar
ble are now in the possesion of Mr. t ra
iiior, which are well worth looking at
Among thorn are lis-' /ill jo wing. Ruins
warble ; black, mottled, with pure hit®
specks of cryslalized silex ; yellcw ribb>>n
ed. resembling petrified wood in its struc
ture, but which i stone dcpoited in a
large layer, and easily polished as smooth
as glass* TL7. quality is peculiarly adapt
ed to ornamental wok, *2 c h BS clock
frames, furniture and lamp vases. *ll the
different varieties of marble found in this
quarry are susceptible of a high polish, and
being of a homogeneous/close structure,
must be very valuable, and once knowr. to

On Thursday morning 18th ult. Col. Jos.
Adams, of Millhcim, retired from tha U
Me, walked into another room took a seat,
and In a few moments more his time was
numbered and his spirit had taken its de
parture into eternity. Only a few days be
fore be was r.ble to ba being out in
town.
, During the freshet of last week all the
bridges in Peon fownship (awing Pcnns
creek, i were endangered. The ice on the
creek was about t* o feet thick some places
and being frozen fast to the frames, when
the water raited the ice broke in the mid
dle and being fast at the frame* it raised
the bridges also. They were almost im
passible. The frame uc-'tr the bridge at
the forks wa* torn out by the Ico. the
bridge howler was considered safe for an
"ordinary load to pass over Some few
driving over it on Thursday and Friday
and on Friday night broke down.
Some time ago a cigai peddler stopped
at one of the hotels in Millheim, putting
hi- wagon in the-hoj. and in his absence
a certain class of fellows (.not belonging to
the hotel; took an inventory of bis stock
taking as their commission four boxes of
cigars. That was rather rough on the ped
dler, say boys,
The Millheim Grammar /school gave n
public exhibition on Saturday evening
last, in the Town Hall at Millheim. The
programme conxi-led of essays, declama
tions, dialogues and soleol reading, tfuite
a respectable audience bad assembled and
all passed off quietly, decently and in or
der, all honor is due to Prof S. O. M'Cur
| dy and his School for the getting up of this
entertainment.
A certain chop from Si - - \ lley, to-
ing out oa a wedding stopped at Krca
mer's hotel, and upon leaving handed the
hostler 25 ct, as u-ual the hostler put tha
money in his pocket when tho man de
manded some change, saying twenty-five
cents was too much. We would have re
turned all and unhitched the lior# o again
for nothing.
Mr. 11. A. Larimer'* sain amounted to

PA RENTAL CRUEL SY.
Oatoun, Eel. 20. —Tht |utrlK-uiars
of n sal easeuf death by frccxitig Lave
been received in thia place from the
town of Exeter during the inuuaely
Cold weather that prevailed here ail
of thia week. The victims were three
boys, named Patrick .Martin aud
Michael O'Brien, the first agcl eight,
the sec >nd ten, and the third eleven
years. * They were hroth?r, living
with their parent* in KxiD-r. The
father ami tit other are laay and d>Mi
pated people, aud live on the fruiu of
the labor of their children, who were
•even in number. The four oldest
made baskets, aud the three others
just named traveled on fool about the
country > jling ttiem.
'Ju Tuesday last the thermometer
in the town of Exeter marked twenty
five degree* below xero. Mr. ami Mra.
O'Brien told their three little children
that tin v to tut staii out with a lot of
InskcU. The boys begged to be ol
lowed to wail until the weather turnß
crated. They were poorly clad and
were barely able to keep warm in the
miserable SioUo it* which the family
lived
The brutal parenU forced tlieui
with threais ami lieatings. however, to
go out with the baskets. They started
in the direction of NNestville. some
miles distant, over a bleak and deso
late roi, billy and iu utp placey
badly driftnl. Each bov had a num
ber of baskets lied to him reaching
above bis bead. Wheu last seen alive
bv any of the family they were strug
gliug up the hill away from tha house,
two of tlient weeping bitterly. They
never reached Westvillc.
Wednesday morning n gentleman
who was driving from Westvillc over
the Exeter road saw the bodics of
three children lying in the road.
Each had a number of baskets tiedi
around his body, and the large-t of
the three had his arms around the
neck of tho smallest. It needed huM
glance fo enable the geullciuan to see
that the boys weie dead, and had
doubt ess been froxen to death.
Frozen traces of tears on thcjclieeks
of cud) one. Ihe bodies were taken
to Westvillc. where they were recog
nised :u tli<Vic of the tlt toe little bus-'
kct JMMI<IICIS, who were well known
throughout the seotiun. 1 liev wer<
tik.n home, and when'it was learned
that the little fellows had been driven
out in the coUl to sell their basket* the
popular iudiguation was intense
acftiust the parent*. If there is any
legal r-uuishmenl it v.i'.l U invoked (
on the uunutural father ami mother.
The ice gorge at LewWtuwn laited the;
new bridge, t that place, and cau*od it to
fall into the river one dy latt week.
Incendiarism among the striking miners
ia the Pennsylvania coal regions seems to|
be on the increase.
There is a great ice gorge in the
waro and Port Jervis is threatened by in:
undation.
At Malbcrt's Bend, above Lackawanna,
there is nn ice gap a mile long, 60 fcethigk;
and 600 feet wido.
fn Cochepton Kails there is a jam 80 Iteet j
high and a mile long. A body of ice from |
Ten Mile River to Hridgn No. 9 fill* the
river from bank to brink, 2 miles long and
30 feet thick. From Cochecton Fall* the :
water is dammed back 7 miles, flooding!
the flat* to Callicoon.
The report that the brid"o r,;:o>„ the
Delaware-', Miliord, l'n., ats threatened
by the breaking up of tlih ice at that point
is incorrect. There i* no break In the river
