The following letter was found by Sheriff
Oyster, together with the key, this

To the Sheriff of Elk County: Dear
Sir: We, the undersigned, return you
our most heartfelt thanks for the kind
ness you have shown us while under
your charge. If we thought it would
in any way iujure you we would not un
dertake so rash an act as to attempt to

liberty, will, we hope, remove any stigma
which may be east on your character as
a jailor. Signed,

Narrow Escape. A Luthersburgh
sorrespondent writes to us saying: We
had quite au excitement in our town on
Saturday, caused the narrow escape
from death of old Mr llishel, father of
Adam llishel. His son Adam came to
town in a two-horse wagon, bringing his
father, an old man of eighty year3 of
age, with him. After attending to their
buiucss, they 'gut into the wagon to start
home, but just as th'iy got seated, tho
horses took fright aud started off at full
speed. Adam tried to hold the horses
as they ran through town, but in doing
so he pulled them ou tho bank of the
road, and ho was thrown out of the
wagen. The horses ran by tho school
house and out by Mr. Shea's and on to
near Mr Marshall's where, after already
hitting several stumps, the wugon struck
the fence, breaking the coupling and
tougue, and throwing tho wagon box.
with the old gcntlemau in it, off
against the fence. The horses ran on to
Weaver's trough, where they wero
caught. Tho old gentleman rect.ved no
hurt, except bruising a couple of his fin
gers. Adam is bruised a good deal by
his fall. The wheels of tho wagou are
all broken and it is a complete wreck.
The distance from town to where the
old gentleman was thrown out is about a
uiile,'and the feelings of the poop le in
regard to his fatj, on seeing tho horses
start away with him in the wagon aud
no one to check their speed, can be im
agined. A number started in pursuit,
expecting to find him killed, but wero
much rejoice! upon learning of his mir
aculous escape. Clearfield Republican,

The Printers Estate. We find
in an exchange, tho following remarks,
which all printers and publishers will
agree in calling sensible, and commend
them to tho attention of the reader.
They will npply to all localities, in which
newspapers circulate. The printers dol
lars where are they? A dollar hero
and a dollar there, scattered over the
tho country, miles and miles apart, how
shall they be gathered togflthctf Tho
paperniaker, the journeyman compositor,
the building owner, the grocer, tho tai
lor and all assistants to Lira in the carry
ing on his business have their demands,
hardly ever small as a single dollar.
But the mites from here and there must
bo diligently gatherod and patiently
hoarded, or the wherewith to discharge
the liabilities will never become suffici
ently bulky. We imagino the printer
will have to get up and address to his
widely-scattered dollars something like
the following : "Dollars, halves, quart
ers, dimes and all manner of fractions
into which you are dividing, collect
yourselves and come home. You are
wanted. Combinations cf all sorts of
men that help to make the printer a pro
prietor gather in such force aud demand
with such good reasons your appearance
at this counter, that nothing
short of you will please them. Collect
yourselves, for valuable as you are, you
will never pay tho cost of collecting.
Come here in single file, that the printer
may form you into battallou, and seud
you forth again to battle for him and
vindicate his feeble credit." Reader,
are you sure you havn't a couple of the
printer's dollars sticking about your
clothes? If you have, order them homo
immediately.
Worth Tryi.no. Very many ladies
of our town, arc posesed ot exquisite
taste in arranging and ornamenting their
gardens, aud to them we suggest iho trial
of a novelty in a hanging garden. Take
a white sponge of large size and sow it
full of rice, oats or vtlieat. l'luce it for
a week or ton days in a shallow dish in
which a little water is constantly kept,
and'as the sponge will absorb the water,
the seeds will sprout before many days.
When this lias fairly taken place the
spouge may be suspended by cord- in tha
sunshine aud wet moderately every day.
Tunnelling the Rocky Mount
ains. The Denver AVics says a scheme
is now on foot for running a tunnel
through the Rocky Mountains. The
idia is to tunnel the mountains from a
point about one mile below Black Hawk
to thu Middle l'ark, running in a north
westerly direction. The tunnel to bo
run will, it is parsnmcd, cut many r ich
veins of gold aud silver, and thus a great
mining interest be developed. Money
ior the prosecution ot the work is fur
nished by English capitalists, who are
sanguine of tho ultimate success ot the
enrei prise. Some idea of I he mtigni'.udii
ni the task may be gathered from the
fact that the tunnel, if completed, will
be twelve miles iu lenirihi It is intended
to make it large enough to be used for !
railway purposes, and so, if a road is
ever to be constructed to tho Middle
Park, it will find its most convenient
route through the tunnel.
A Divorce in the "Good Old
Times." Before the war, in tho j:old
miuitig regions of Burke county, N. C,
there lived an industrious, well to-do
free colored woman named Nancy Ruyce.
She was engaged to marry Jack, a slave,
and in order to have everything pleas
ant, she put her hand in her pocket utul
bought him of his master. But she was
shrewd enough to take u bill of salo of
him, fortunatly, as it happened, for Jack
proved to be worthless, aud a perfect sot.
But little need was there lor Nancy to
CO to the Courts for reliel by divorce.
She knew a better way than that. She
owned her man, and she simply sold
him to a slave-dealer, who carried him
off to the far Southwest, so that the
sharp Nancy vas never bothered by him
again. Husbands have been badly sold
before, though not iu this particular
way.

Permanent Whitewash. The an
nual inquiry for a good whitewash has
commenced, and tho following may be
found useful :
Take halt a bushel of freshly burned
lime, slake it with boiling water; cover
it during the process, to keep in the
steam, Strain the lipuid through a due
sieve, and add to it 7 lbs., of salt, previ
ously well dissolved in warm water j 3
lbs. of ground rice, boiled to a thin paste
and stired in boiling hot water ; i lb. of
powdered Spanish whiting, and lib. of
clean glue, which has been previously
dissolved by soaking it well and then
hanging it over a slow fire, in a small
kettle withiu a larger one filled with
water. Add five gallons of hot water to
the mixture, stir it well, and lot it stand
a few days covered from dirt. It must
bo put on quito hot. For this purpose
it can bo kept in a kettle on a portable
furnace, About a pint of this mixture
will cover a square yard.
Mustard Plasters. How many
people are there who really know how
to make a mustard plaster? Not ouo in
a hundred, at the most, perhaps, aud yet
mustard plasters are used in every fam
ily, and physicians prescribe their appli
cation, never tolling anybody how to
make them for the simple reason that
the doctors themselves do not know,
as a rule. The ordinary way is to mix
the mustard with water,tempering it with
a little flour, but such a plaster as that
makes it simply abominable. Before it
has half done its work it begins to blis
ter tho patient, and leaves him finally
with a painful, flayed spot, after having
produced fur less effect iu a bcuificial
way tli mi was intended. Now a mus.
taid plaster should never mule a blister
at all. It a blister is wat.tcd, there are
other plasters far better than mustard for
that purpose. When you make a mus
tard plaster, then, use no water whatever
but mix the mustard with the white of
au egjr, and the result will be a plaster
which will "draw" perfectly, but vsill
not produce a blister even upon the skin
of an infant, no matter how long it is al
lowed to remain upon the ptirt. For
this we have the word of an old and em
inent physician, as well as our own ex
perience Excluder.
RiMAr. K.A15LK Escape. On Satur
day, the. Kail of May, Jefferson Caldwell
of Cui wciibvilic, ws landed with a crew
of raltuiou at the White Hou"3, above
Middbtown. At about eleven o'clock
at night it commence! to thunder p'etty
i-harp. and he trot up an J went outside
to eo that, uli was riht. Upon return
im: to the shanty, and jut as he was en
tering the door, he ws struck b light
uinsj aiiii knocked down. Hie "erew in
the iihauty hearing the noise, pot up and
found him insensible. Those in the
shauiy le'.t Tio effects of the lightiiinjr,
while the hands on mi a;ijoiniug raft
were sensibly shecked. Mr. Caldwell
being well drenched with water and his
limbs coiihtintly rubbed, rev ived iu
about au hour after he was struck and
on Tuesday following was able to reach
his home, although seriously injured.
An investigation iu the morning showed
that the lightning had struck a little
hemlock which had been placed on the
shanty by boring a hoio in tho roof,
pointing the tres a:.d sticking it in, and
when the electric charge struck the ruof
a portion of it ran along the roof to the
stove pipe, tearing pine au! stove to
pieces ac l passing into the timber, while
another streak pas-ed down the end of
the shanty, where Mr. Callwcil was
standing, with his left baud braced
a-rnitiht the upper corner of the entrance
The lightning ran down his left arm aud
side, of the hip, and there crossed over
hi:- body and down the right leg, ruffling
and burning tho skill in its course.
This w.is a wonderful escape, and an
other remarkable feature is Unit those
who were lying by the- side of the stove
which was toru to pieces never felt the
shock. But the boys declare the shanty
was full ot smoke and brimstoue.-Clear-field
