well will be put down within a short time,

at work prepiratory to erecting it.
Whether oil exists in thii se ction can only
be told by bpring, and the gentlemen en
gaged in putting down this well are.cer
taints, entitled to credit for their enter-enter
prise. The well, will be put down 2000
feet unless ell is found before .that depth
is reached, and Whether oil
.is found or
not, this will determine whether coal, iron
or other minerals exist there. The result
will be watehed with much' interest.

.
Upon the 4th of the - Fount month, at
the home of his daughter,, M. H. Mon;
of Orwell , occurred the 911th anniversary
of the birth of Hon. AARON Catroouez,
so long and well known - tc; many of thi)
citizens of Bradford, County.
Owing to the feeble health of the Judge
only his, three brothers, Dr. H. 8. and
Rev. A. E. Cnvonucx, of. Elmira, and
Rev. FRANCIS Cnunnuca, Of Nichols, N.
Y., together with- his grandchildren were
present. A. few appropriate and timely re
!corks wore Made by the Dr., touching
upon the life now near its close—of its
value as a true christian !characier, and
above all for the deep, consistent and un7
iform piety, so long known to have
been practised by its possessor. These
were followed by prayer which wail
heard to mingle, perhaps for the last time,
the well-known voice of the elder brother.
It awakened quiet, sacred memories, and
when it ceased, all felt their lives ought
to be nobler and better for having heard
it.

A friendly match came off at this place .
on Saturday last between a team selected
from Rash, Susquehanna Co., Leßays
ville and Orwell of this County, ancl.a
team of the .Towanda dub. .The match
was to have beim a return match between
the. Leßaysville team and. Towanda team.
but' on account, of the team being
made up from throe different clubs, as
alleged — by our home riflemen, they re
fused to shoot the team as a return match
with the Leßaysville team. An 'agree
ment was arrived at, and the Towanda
team decided to shoot the clubs as made
,up tr:bovebut not as a return match by
- the Leßaysville club.
The weather and light Ivor() favorable
to good shooting, and the contest was
very clo'se and in favor of the Towanda
team until the tenth round, when the
Towanda club fell short of their average
and lost the match by six pointi. The
distance shot was 200 yards ; position,

influence, always having . some kind word,
*advice or precept for the young; whom he
captivated by his pleasant and impressive
ways. Hih greatest aim was to do good.
.He was a Catholic by creed, but not
bigoted or' hostile. His neighbors who
have known him longest and best, have
loved him longest and best. With them
he never had trouble in any respect. His
noble ezainple is worthy of emulation,
and were Ito write his epitaph, I would
inscribe as the highest eulogy on the
stone which shall rnarichis resting place :
Here lies. 74 man who never tried once to,

good eiiminen - sense, he was never harsh
or criiiit He taught his children to love

moral principles before . them, seldoin

'nre now grown to manhood, and how per
ceptible is the effect of their early chris-
