, t'. !•:acce,n(ful raiscia of those have for some
L;7:4 , -; s lop'el a plan by which they feed the
v4;its with BeWitge water. Pipe tides are placed
s a. to run directly down to the body of the
ro - 14, and down these pipes the water is pour
c 1 whenever . the weather is dry. This prevents
the crusting and baking of the surface, result
ing from the common mode orwatering. An
improvement upon this would be to 13.11 the tile
with fibrous litter or coarse manure, which will
allow the water to enter, but prevent the roots
froni becoming :dry-by the escape of moisture
up thringli thli chimney, which the tiles would

the Sabbath, and using obscene language in
hearing of those for whom a mother's or sister's
influence should have prodweed more respect.
Ware Informed that it, Is tho . practice of quite

as a natural consequence "accounts were

sox learning what was up, stole a march on the
officer, and went before Esquire Tut to and plead
guilty,. The other two gentlemen wore found
by the police and taken before theta= magis

costs. The victims say they do not care much
about the fine, but suggest that it bo appropri

This action on the part of the authorities,
gives evidence that the laws are to be enforced

DEATH OF ISAAC 3.IIEII.—ISAAC MT
an died at his residence is this borough on Sat
urday evening last. Hr. Hunt removed to
this county .when a child, his father settling
here in 1800. Nearly sixty years ago, the de
ceased married Miss Sault Max, and settled in
what is now North Towanda township, near the
mouth of Sugar - Creek, where be erected him
self a handsome reside:xi), which he occupied
with the companion of his youth fur more than
fit ty-five years. Be also erected the mills which
bear his name in North Towanda.
In 1835 Hr. Mien and Taos. Ei.t.tcrrr were
chosen representatives in the Legisla.nre from
this county, which we believe was the only offi
cial position he ever occupied, although ho was
a man of exceptional ability and intelligence,
always taking an active part and decided stand
on all political questions. For many years
he was a devoted and consistent member
of the Presbyterian Church, and died in full
faith of a glorious immortality. '
About three years since he removed to this
borough, having become too infirm to attend
active business. His health was usually good
until a few weeks previous to his death, when
he received a fall which hastened hie end. His
mind was clear and vigorous to the last. His
age was 79 - years and 4 months, and he had
lived with his wife, who still survives hint,
nearly sixty years.
" Life's fitful fever o'er, he bleeps well."

Use hotel-furniture or its out-buildings, all of
which were burned except his barn. Living on
his farm a mess or more out of town, when be
arrived be could only by a desperate effort we
his barn. It was evident from the first divot-
cry of the fire, that the three buildings already
named muse born.-; And for more than one
hour it was feared thit nearly the whole town
must yield to the fire king. It was only by an
almost superhuman effort that the town wax
saved from the flames. The sight of the firs
and the sound of the church bells warned us
and the people of the surrounding country of
our danger. Many persons, for milei around,
came to our . aid, and they came to work. Our
only hope of preventing the farther spread of
the fire on the south side of the street, was by
keeping carpets and blankets thorougly wet on
the house of J. B. Samn a which had between it
and the bocce of Mrs. Parnssr a number of
large trees. But the great fight with the de-
Touring flames was on the corner of the street
directly opposite the burning buildings: There
for more than one hour, men periled their lives
to prevent the spread of the flames. Where
every man and .woman did all in his or her pow.
er to do r it would not be proper to mention any
by name u specially deserving of praise, and
yet I cannot refrain from making honorable
mention of the Dame of Lucia Duor.v, Esq.,
of Duabore. Be was in this place at the time
of the fire, and though in feeble health he was
among the first to assume a position of danger
to save our property. Ile took his position on
a ladder in front of the buildings most exposed,
and which had they burned would have caused
the destruction of every other building on that
side of the street. There ho stood in front of
the Burning buildings, and passed pails of wa
ter to those afro were on the awriing or tops of
the buildingAntil he fainted, and another took
his place and kept it until the crisis eras passed.
This labor of love on the part of Mr. DAD:IA:Pt
was as near "disinterested benevolence" as It
possible attineg - men, and entitles him to some
recognition of his services more Proll‘ntial
than our sincere and i hearty thanks. These wo
thus publicly tender him, as we d 1 most sin
cerely to all, both men and women, who so effi
ciently aided us on that occasion. This I know
is the feeling of every property owner in the
town. \ E. 11. CIANITEIL

what the object of his vistt was, is not so clear

was Seized with a desire tO , frinatsti this borough
with water, by making use of the darn to create
the power to force {ho t w'ster into a reservoir
on the opposite side of the river. We want
water, but we cannot afford it any price it can
be had in this way. We do not want oar bo

,It is one of Prrna's frvosite ways to raise the

counties, make the . pompanics issue bonds to
pay for them, tali to pa) , the interest, and then
buy up the bonds at fifty or sixty per cent. dis
