4, Citt Directory. Mr. Joseph Wiggins,
compiler of the new directory for Oil Creek,
French Creek and Allegheny Valley, is now
delivering the work to subscribers. It Is a
handsome volume of 250 pages, and affords
a full and reliable directory of the resident
population of Meadville, Franklin, Oil City,
VenangoCity, Petroleum Centre, Titusville,
Corry. Jamestown, N. V., Warren, Pa ,
Kittening, Kreeport, Sbarpsburg, and Etna
together with historical notices of each place,
and a description of the manufactures, edu
cational institutions, oburcbes, placet of In.
teres! and business sources.
The work was printed and bound at the
Republican office, Meadville, and presents a
floe typography. The compilation ot tbe
work has involved a heavy expense to the
publisher, but it is hit intention to continue
it from year to year, with sucb addition
as may be necessary to make It a complete
and popular directory. It Is by all odds
tbe best publication of tbe kind over issued
for tbe region it embraces, and should receive
a liberal encouragement from tho business
community. TUusville Herald.
Tbey have a she-devil for a school tuarm
la La Crosse,' Wisconsin. A little girl was
guilty of the unpardonable sin of taking a
bite from an apple during study hours. This
Xantippe of a teacher seized the offender
and placed ber on a table. Sbe then made
all tbe scholars disgorge from their pockets
their apples, realizing about a dozen, which
sbe compelled the little girl to eat, until
he vomited lrotn her oter loaded stomach'
Among the inflictions of this inhuinau
teacher the favorite one it wbippiog the
children's ieet until blood flows, gnggiog
her toholars with wooden pins, and twitching
their arms until tbo blood trickles down
their finger ends. Tbe La Crosse School
Board are in favor of corporeal punishment,
and sustain the teacheis in pounding tbe
scholars.
An old man, whose sight was defective
and who bad to use glasses, was reading a
newspaper on tbe train between Wheeling,
Va , and Washington, a few days ago.
When the cart reached tbe tunnel tbe quick
diBsppearaoce of the light caused bim to
look up. Taking off bit speclaolet and
wiping them, be replaced them and tried to
read. Perceiving that all was still dark,
be dropped both paper and spectacles, ex
claiming, in a loud voice, "My God, I'm
blind, I'm blind!" Tbia aroused tbepas-
songers, and It was a long time before be
could be convinced what was the matter.
On coming again to the light he thanked
God fervently for his sight.
The storm which has prevailed in the east
since Saturday night is said to bo the severest
which has visitod that part of I be country
since 1850. The damugo has been very
great. Bridges bnve been swept away
bouses destroyed, and communication is in
terrupted. It is thought that It will require
two weeks to repair the damages ou the
Erie Canal alone. Tho accounts received
convey some idea of its extent, but we fear
tbe worst is yot to come. .
Ssys the New York Sun: '-Gen. Babcnck,
of Gen. Grant's Stan", it traveling In St Do
mingo, and, at they tay, Is dickering for
tbe long coveted bsy of Samana for a naval
station. Perhaps this it what be it doing;
but we fancy that he bas been sent to look
after tbe who'e Dominican Republic with a
view to Informing Gen. Grant whether It
will be worth while to annex it. For sucb
a duty Babcock is an excellent man, shrewd,
sensible, and with bis eyes always open."
Comissioner Delano bat decided that
wholesale apothecaries and drtigglutt doing
business as inch under a regular llcenso

His decision also covers the case of. sales of
alcohol by such parties, who sell in quan
tities less than five gtllons at any one time,
or yay tbo special tax required by whole

A writer describing Japanese cemeteries,
bears testimony to tbe affection generally
tbown for tbe dead, by tbe erection of me
morial stones and planting of flowers. At
tbe cemetery at Hlogo, quite a number of
tbe ttonea are mere boulders of an oblong
tbape, staading upright in a stone socket,
and sculptured to represent the human
figure, or with a simple Inscription. More
frequently the ttonet are substantial slabs
dscorated with an Image of Budba in relief.
In one instance a mammoth turtle support
ing the monument proper on its bsck, the
wbolo elevated on a mammoth pedestal. In
alt casos these memorials bare placed on
tbe ground before them a receptacle for
(lowers, made from stone or bamboo, and it
is due to the Japanese poople to say that
fidelity to tbe memory of the dead is a na
tional characteristic Even where stones
are crumbling with age, true human hearts
survive to bring fresh flowers as a perpetual
offering.
Fisk, Jr., bas given bit opinion at last.
A reporter cornered bim and got from bim

"If there were so many sharp men bit

bad bad me where the hair was Bbort would
not tbey bave made me squeal? Well I
guess yes I Talk about buying $30,000,000
ofgoldl Why no one supposed that there
were to many wild men that were morn
crazy than tbe man who bought it. Tbe
wbole matter can be placed in a nutshell
Mr. Beldon told Mr. Speyer In his (Mr. B -1-don's)
office, In my presence, that any or
ders that I might give bim (SpeycM would
oeonBeldon't acsount. With that I told
bim to buy at 60, never supposing he could
raise $10,000, Instead or which be took in
$30,000,000, and a great many sharp men,
too. It It nothing but a nine days wonder.

Prince Arthur was, on Friday, made a

Brantford, Canada. He was Inducted into

His older brothers have also been made
chiefs of the tribe. He was named "The

son of Victoria, flying over bis mother's do
