arrlte entitled - "Cow Worth Ha34n ."
Mr. 0. F. ATER, of Sheshequin fownslfip,
this county, is the owner of a cow, :part
Alderney and Jersey, four.years old this
month, that has a family alt by' her side
431
pf three licad, all heifers, and. missed ono
year at thit. The oldest Is. three years
in.Angust nest
.; was dropped when the
Mother Iraa fifteen montirs old. She has
no twins. • This is a cow worth keening.
Sheshequin‘ March' 18, 1881. *
WS take from the Wellsburg Gazette of
17th inst., the following : "Mtmatu.Fox,
who surveyed the line of the Tioga
rail
road more than forty years ago, is stopping
at the Parkhurst House... .The Wellsboro
Cornet Band serenaded the guests of the
several ,hotels of the village on Tuesday
evening. Maj. E. W. Hale, of Woodside,
near Towanda, in a neat little speech com
plithented the band,upon'their proficiency
and thanked them for the pleasing they
had given himself and. friends."
. DIPIITHERIA.—when you observe signs
of weakness or fatigne l particularly if Ac
companied with slight fever, frequently
examine the throat. Never • mind how
red or inflamed it may appear. That
does not indicate the disease. But the
instant you see a white spot and detect a
bad odor Ten for a doctor. The white
Spot will grOw. Other white spots will
appear, and eventually they will run to
gether in great blotches if the disease is
not checked. The time to summon med
ical assistance is before these spots run
together.
Mn. and Mrs. OTT, . Germans, of the
town of Tioga, Tioga County, N. Y., lost
five children by that dread disease, diph.
theria, all within a few .days, of each oth
er. On Sunday, the 6th instant, their
boy Emil; four years old, passed away.
On Wednesday, the DO, their infant child
of two months died. On the 11th, JOnif,
a bright boy of eight years expired. The
-following day, Saturday the 12th, CAR
RIE, a little girl of three years
. died, and
op Snriday, the 13th,
.SARAIfp aged ten
years, also fell a victim to the diseage.
This is one of the most sad cases we have
had,occasion to chronicle. - Thus iu eight ,
days- this.aorely afflicted family lost, we ,
believe, all the children they had.
Simi a rare occurrence as tho.moving
into their midst of a reat.businegs man,
and, one whO will introduce Towanda
cash and energy into their dying indus-.
tiles,.has - completely turedthe heads of
the villagers of Waverly, rand seemingly
their jo*, and gladoess,.-know no hounds.
At-last accounts they were indulging the
hope" ~.that henceforth prominence and
prosperiti are theirg. We have but oue
predtio l n to make as to the result of this
coming together of Towanda enterprise
and Waverly enthusiasm, viz :—that
less than. ten years the town name will be
changed I
from' Waverly to; W p ardville
Will KINNEY: please give this - a place:iu

31n. E. C. o t t ;ELLOGG,- or Monroe town
ship, father-of ORNELL KELLOGG, of the
Elwell House, gave us a pleasant call on
Tuesday. He is now 73 years ofd, and
enjoysgood health. Last month ho'.was
elected Assessor • for Monroe township
ithout opposition: He has served his
town in the .same capacity some ten or
more terms during his life ; the first time
being in 1831, just half a century • agc),
When Mr. KELLOGG was not 25 years 01d...
At that - thne there being considerable in
equality as assessment between
. the dif
erent towns, all •of the assessors met to
agree upon a uniform rate of assessment;
which washed at the actual cash value
on real estate. - None of the assessors
elected that - year are `new living to the
knowledge of Mr. KELLOGG ' so be
would be,_pleased to hear from thein.

THE DWIGHT CASE.
. -
-• By an acWerse decision of the Court, of
ApPeals of New York State, the last re ,
sort; the case of Colonel riNVIGIIT, of
Binghamton, is again brought to public ,
lie attentioi.. By this decision the tom=:
pastes contesting the payment or claims .
are required to furnish a bill .of partied
larslxfore they c.,n proceed tofurther
.
trial. ID the_ppinloif of the public the
Case , IS - idle:ay virtually-disposed of, as
adverse to the companies. A short time
,befOre Mr. Dwmtur's death, some two
years ago, he' had effected' an' insurance
on hislife ftn . $255,900, distributed in sev
eral iniurarice companies. .When he died
a plea of suicide was made by. the compa
nies, and two most thorough post Mortein
examinations were made. by medical .e . 3c
perts, who decided that-there was no
evi
deuce of suicide. Two of the. companieS•
then paid the policiesaniounting.tofri3,ooo:
The other companies against whom were
policieS aggregating the sum. of $200,000
continued to resist, and the case went .to
the courts. It has finally reached the
Court of Appeals, where',the appeals . of
the insurance companies have been. dis
miised with costs, and at last, after, two
years of litigation,. the heirs of Colonel
Dwic-Irr will receive their money. In
surance companies are entirely justified
in protecting themselves against fraud,
but in the ease of Colonel Dwionx they
carried resistance too far. When medi
cal experts, chosen by the companies, ro-
ported that Colonel Dwintrr
,had mine to
his death from natural causes, th-n was
tht-.time fOr the: companies
,to stop and
pay the•risks. • • .

up the larger Part of our history for the
few wefks.that arejustiiassed.
Among the sad thoughts that come to
US :ire: those suggested by the death
of-lilr.,William Peeki an aged gentleman
Who has long resided in this. vicinity. He
was a iimn-whase high Christian charac
ter shone forth from his face, and-was ev
ident hi his intercourse. with the world.
The greater part of his life has been spent
ou liik.farm in Columbia, but for; h le*
years he has resided in Troy. Ile was a
meniber of the Presbyterian Church, and,
evoted worshipper of Him who search
ie hearts of the el-ildrin oilmen. Al
though holding no office in' the Church,
he was one to be - revereneed for . the vir
tues which the ' Most casual observer
would - 'attach to those who _seek to lead
the religious thought of a congregation.
Meekness and patience wore plainly writ
ten upon his face. While lie was an old
man amilroui his age, his expectation of
life was not great, it is nevertheless' Sad
to'Part withbim, now, on the journey of
•life. We love - to see the reverend bends,
silvered with the touch of time, arid as
they one by one pass the outer threshold
'of life, no more to advise 'and enceurage
those whom their counsel and example
have long aided, the heart -is saddened
and the world is shorn of one of its great
est blessings. But their - example. lives
and through years to came,. their influ
ence will be felt for good, although them
' selveii may be unknown or, forgotten.
