Lambing Bros., of Parker's Land ing, bad been loroed, ar that ao attempt was being mads to force them, Is to bank rtiptcy, oo the application of James E. Brown, of-EiltsDOing. It seems that lbs Lsmblngs have been carrying on tbetr op eraljohs with bis asslstsnoe tor tba psst twj years, and Ibat Ibey run into blm to Ibe ex tent of ovar $50,000 Tba many dry bole? which they drilled during Ibe past spring, has swallowed up their owo capital, and left them la tba lureh to lbs amount stated. Almost all tbe hardware men ia the lower countries suffer heavily Id amounts from $600 to $10,000: It Is believed by many ot their friends Ibat Ibsy msy get on their leet again if they are not pushed too bard by their creditors. . Tba failure of Lambing Bros., was well knowb la financial circles quite a while .ago, indeed the Parker men have almost all baea aware of it. Grea1 surprise is manifested that James E. Drown should be sojbeavy loser by Ibis failure, a, bo is well known to be tbe veriest old skin flint lo all chrlstsndom, and is willing t0 shave a not to take a mite from a widow, or skin a louse for its bide and tallow. 1 1 la believed that all tba properly of the dr funot Arm will be assigned to .James E Brown, thus leaving tbe rest of (be creditors to look out for themselves. It would ap pear Hat tba land of Qreeoe bootless no ted io modern times for tbe promptness with whlob sbs curbs tbe , progress of Ibe Utile gods vac seek to tula ber than was ber an. cleat relative wbea the srlstoorecy under, took to govern by prestige of tbe Grecian arms. It Is a bard lcassn, notwltb standing which It is fortunate for the oil business, and for every Individual producer la tbe re gion. A, destructive typbooo visited Am iaina,.oa toe zisi, doing great damage to foreign shipping and property In tbe harbor and river. Tbe telegraph cable between Amoy and Sbangbae was broken. Considerable excitement was occasioned at Atleinagoozelnm City, on Saturday last, oy an engineer at one of tbe Wallace wells being taken with Ibe delirium tremens. He bad bsen drinking to ezaess lately, and when the fit came ongotont la tba middle of tbe road and with dreadlul oaths and foul language, threatened the lives of pass ors by. lie was anally qulsud down. There was a sensation at Columbia farm, Saturday evening. A little daughter of Mr. Markbam, who bad been out hunting the cows, came running borne out of breath and badly Irlgbteued, stating she bad seen a skeleton in tbe woods. Tbe father started out to see If there was anything la the child's story, but could discover nothing, tba little one beleg so badly seared that it could not locate the place. Several of our tUlMos have gone to lbs Cleveland races. Sam. Woods new well near Greece City continues to bold out at nearly 300 barrels. dsiiy. 'The Blue and tlc Gray." Tbe'teoder reoolleelions which were re vived by Decoration Day still appears in tbe riess of the southern states. Occasion ally we meet with noble words whlob should be caught up and repeated, north and south' The Richmond Enquirer, for example' speaking of tbe brave Gen. W. 21. Lytle, ol Ohio, killed while attempting to reinforce Gen. Thomas, in 1SCJ, uses the following language: lie was killed, far in advance of his com msnd, while gallantly leading an assault upon our lines. Ilia horse bore bis corpse into our line, and the steed and bis dead rider were bothjcaptiired. So soon as it wsg known that tbe author of tbe rare poem, as familiar and as greatly . admired south as north, '-I urn dying, Egypt, dylug," lay dead la the camp, officers and men crowded around to tako a a last look at the face ol tbe poet soldier who had achieved so great a literary triumph. There was no rejoicing over the doatb of this lullea e--,emy; bu' there was in truth something on each sol dier's cheek that for the moment washed away tbe stains of powder. Tenderly they took him up, and when the battle was over an escort of honor, appoint ed Irom among the leading Confederate oflbers, bore blm back to bit own oamp, under s flag of Iruoe, oc a rudely construct, sd funeral bier, with bis martial cloak around bim In lile be bad that chord or human sympathy which makes all tbe world kin and in death Its harmonious viluaiion. silenced all resentments, aud thrilled tbe hearts alike of Iriends and toes witb a nc bler passion that bate or revenge. Notkh. Ain't those relresbiDg showers growing rather too frequent of lata for com fort, enjoyment or refreshment. Tbe .latest slang of tbe season is "Who struck you in the mouth." Jenkins describes tho latest Parisian fast, ion as barely affording a covoriug for tie person; that in order-to retain tbe frail new gaw ibey have to ounme a dignity and bearing that is truly 'queenly." A good little boy, one of Ibe kind dej scribed lo tbe Sundsy School (lotion, fouud o quarter tbe other day. His companion shouted "halves." '-Is it yours; did you lose It?" "Yes, but I will give you half for finding it." No. 1 bands over tbe collateral lb No. 2, who coolly deposits tbe same in bis pocket, much lo tbe bewilderment of No 1, who wants to know II he is not going to fulfill bis agreement. No. 2: '-What do you take me lor? when I And any money I shove it down and advise yoj to do like wise." A youngster of eight or ten was looking over tbe family register wben these sur prising entries met bis eye: Born dead; died aged two weeks. He went at coca to bis mother end said : "Mother, wbst was tbe use in puttiog those entries in?" "Why my son." "Because, aren't they just the same as It I bey never was. " Miss Jones' oountry cousia from Cherry tree came to see ber one day lately and It bad been tbe sorest trial of ber life to amuse blm. Opening tbe piano she com menoed to play a classioal piece of Richards entitled "Cujious Animsus." To an unculti vated mind the rendition of tbe piece would have been epfJreolaled but to tbe unauivaf ed cousin it failed to produce even tbe usual laudatory remarks demanded by "soolety Miss Jones, surprised and chagrined at tbe Indifference or ber cousio, was going to leave tbe piano ia disgust wbea tbe tfuosp, preclative relative said: '"!, I reckon you got through exercise, give us some mu-1 sic; Fishers Hornpipe or Devils Dream, and i ii enow you toe aouoie snume." Mr. G. Eakin, a well known resident o1 Ibis place during Ibe McCiay Hill excite meat, Das purchased tbe Forest House at Pelrolia, and opened it to the publlo for tbe first time on Monday last. Connected with ibe bouse be proposes to run a first class livery stable, which will be stocked witb the finest horses, carriages, buck boards, Ac, to be found In tbe lower oil field. Mr. E. Is an old hotel keeper and knows just bow tbe "old thing works." Those ol our citizens baviog occasion to visit I'etrolia should pay Ibe Forest House a visit. Tbe city of Baltimore was visited by a devastating fire on Friday last. Upwards oi one ounareu nouses were aesiroyea at a loss of over $1,000,000, By telegrams just received we learn tba Copt. Gracie struck a new well near the Ibe Troutmsn, last night, wbicb started up at 400 barrels.

It is a fortunate thing for the soap mines of Butler county that tbey have an Indus trious sheriff. From parties who have just returned from that "glory bole," we are In formed that that official has gone into a new business, viz: paper banging. It is said that be bas so much business on bands that be is compelled to employ Ave deputies to assist him, and It is remarkable Ibat tbey not only decorate tbe homes of tbe wealthy and ibe hamlets of the lazy, but they go so far as to plaster derricks, engine buuses, Ac witb their band-bills. And not only this, but It is said tbst tbe sheriff has already oomtnenoed lo line-the well-holes with his well known artistic skill. The only trouble is that every building, rig or hole Is paper ed alike, stating that the sheriff, (that mighty man) Is going to do so ami so, and that be will execute tbo premises to suit jo so. Uh! It is a uoworigni SDnme, ine the way that man bas b.jeo cutting up, and it is high time that the operators in the First district were taking the matter In their nwu bands cr the Sheriff will have al (bat tbey now own beside "executing tbe premises." In this connection we may te mark that Sheriff Johnson, ot this county Stated to us yesterday that there Is less properly sold at sheriff's sale among tbe oil men in this district than in any of the sur rounding countries, snd tbst there is .much more thrift and i lability exhibited by every class of business meo. This certainly look' encouraging, aod we believe that our opera. tors will be the first to recuperate after tbe depression bas passed over. Petersburg Progress. AN ACT OF CRUELTY Cospped bands and face are tbe most se rious annoyanoes tbat larmers, and people who labor much onl ol doors, experience from exposture. Exposed perions, espeel ally children, repeatedly suffer Intensely from great cracks upon the bands, tbat of ten bleed. It Is oruel to allow one's self or others lo suffer la tbls way, when the means of posltiqe prevention are so easy to be bsd, and so cheaply, as to pay ten cents for a cake of lland.Sepolio. Hand Sapollo is not only better than tbe costliest soap lor re moviogdlrt, but it prevents obapping, and renders tbe skla soft and pliable. Sold everywhere. Fine it Foxhdro. On Wednesday night Richardson's Machine Shop at Foxburg, wa' discovered to be on fire. Tbe alarm wa. promptly given, and the fire departmen called out, but tbe flames bad gained loo much headway, and before anything could be accomplished the building was burned lo tbe ground. It Is unknown bow the fire originated, but it Is supposed Ibat it caught from tbe spark of a locomotive. The loss and Insurance we have been unable to ear. Osstan E.

Tbe Republicans are concentrating near that place, and tbe prob' abilities are that a desperate struggle will soon take place between tbe two forces. Tbe impression have gone abroad tbat Mr. M. Samuels was about to sell out bis stock of dry goods at auction and close up his business, be desires us to emphatically deny tbe repot t. lie bss no lotontioa of going away. Tbo report probably grew ou of tbe fact tbat be is to auction off a large Ock of boots and shoes commencing Aug. 1st. Not long since two hundred and sixty seven cars of oil were shipped Irom Parker station in one day. A Clarion man bas printed on bis umbrel la tbe following truthful but not rbylbmica1 couplet: ' "If you steal tbls umberell, You will surely go to Strattanvllle." Tbe GreensburglTribune wss one of tb most intensely local option journals In the State previous to tbe adoption of local op Hon la that oouo try.

We apprehend this will be tbe vetdict whatever Us people vor ted for tbe law In Search of a Itetall Store. A green-appearing genius, oo his first visit to Boston, observed a sign over a store, thus : "Wholesale and Retail Store. ' lie worked his was through tbe crowd ot ladies until he faced one of tbe clerks who was exhibiting some stticles to a young lady, wben he broke out witb: "Say, Mister, who's boss here?" "Tbe proprietor has just stepped out, sir." "Well, is this s retailing store?'' "Yes, sir; a wholesale aod retail store." "Guess you understand you trade?'' "Ob, yes," replied Ibe clerk, wrapping np a bundle for bis female customer, "what can I do for you?" "Well, as the cold weather is coming oo, I thought t mought as well come aud give you a j.ib." "I don't understand you sir," replied the clerk, who began to think the fellow bad gut iuio the wr box. ' 'Xaotly so; well, I'll tell you." "Explain what you mean, my irieod,' said the clerk, as "be saw bim produce a bundle from under bis coat. "Well, as I said before; tbe cold weather coming oo, and I thought I might as well be fixing for It. Come mighty near freezio t'other winter, I tell you I did; but I guess" "I bope you will tell me what you want, so I msv serve von."
