The market, says the Titusville Courier of the 8th jnst., toucliedJ)ottom on Saturday fore' noon last, in me aitcrnoon there was an unmistakably' better feeling, and at the close there was a good deal of firm ness at every point, with an apprccia tion of five cents per barrel of crudo oil. The amount purchased last week was large beyond any preoedent in the history of the oil trade, for the same period of time. The commission appointed by Gov. Hartranft to propose amendments to our Constituting met the other day aud organized. They will consider the sub ject proposed to them nnd decide in the Fall what amendment to submit to the next Legislature. The best friends of the new Constitution begin to see its defects and will be among the foremost in curing them. This movement there fore is not in hostility to this organtic law. If it is was, the high character of the Governor's commission would be a sufficient guaranty that no harm could come to it. "Brinley and 4G."-The poem "Brin- lsy and 46" that has been so extensively copied and read, more because it had Bret Harte's name at its head, than from intrinsio merit, has turned out to be a clever sell. It first appeared in tho San Francisco open letter, and its history is as follows: One of the editors of that paper made the assertion that a poem written in the style of any well-known author, no matter how absurb it might be, would be oopied throughout tho length and breadth of the country. The point being disputed, '-Brinley and 46" was wiitten and sent upon its tra vels, proving the disputed assertion. Among the absurdities of the piece is the idea of an engineer freezing to death by the side of a blazing fire Scientific Shooting. The War ren Mail says: Last week we recorded the result of a shooting match at James town, June 3d, between the champion shot of New York, G. W. Fowler, and Horace Warner of Ridgway. They shot four strings of 10 shots each at 40 rods, $100 a string and $100 for the general average, at a rest. Warner used a rifle of his own make, and Fowler used one of Billiughurst's. Fowler won as will be seen by the following stuDis: Fowler 1st string;, 133 inches; 2d, 13; 3d, 12J; 4th, 10; general average, oU inches: average for each shot, 1. Warner 1st string, 151 inches, 2d. 191; 3d, 143; 4th, 13$; general average 62 inches; average for each shot, a trifle over 11 inches. Their style of shooting may be very scientific, but what would Robert Miles, or Orren Hook of Zack Eddy or Dave Martin or Kim Russel or other old time crack shots say to the nonsense of screwing your rifle in a vise and call ing it a shooting match? Why we once made a 11 inch string 10 shots at 20 rods with a rifle belonging to one oi Bcrdao's sharp shooters in 1861. He was from Ridgway and we are not sure but it was Warner himself, we forget the name; and we had none of your vise rests or little flags and didn't brag about it either. The Jamestown Jour nil describes their "new fanglcd no tions" thus: To a novice their style of Bhootinc seemed a little peculiar and unscientific, but wo are assured that this method re quires much more judgment .and skill than the old "oil hand way and glanc ing through the sights at each shot. Mr, Fowler's gun was placed on a sort of a stand like vise, that permitted it to move only backward and forward, to allow for the recoil. Between the rest and target were placed at intervals small flags, to indicate the force and direction of the wind. The marksman securing a time whea both wind and light are fa vorable glances through the sights 'and by one or two trials gets his gun per fectly aimed, and secures it in that posi tion. Then his whole attention aud skill is directed towards the flags, firing whenever an opportunity presents. It was here that Fowler had the advantage of Warner, for though the latter had his gun on some such a stand, he was obliged to place his eye to the sighs each time before firing. Both contest nnts departed for their homes this moroiDg. The match was a very ex citing one to those present and many are expressing the wish that the two will meet again when Mr. Warner is better prepared. A stranger appea red at a Lebanon hotel, . recently, and after two days' courtship married one of the maids em ployed about the hous9. On the day following the nuptials a Reading Police man appeared on the scene, and arres ted the groom for horse stealing. A couple of Warren county lovers went, one afternoon, tor a stroll through a grove, aud while there eame across a Justice of the peace, who was hunting up a stray horse. lie droppod the bri dle and marrid the twain then and there Thus by hunting for one horse he man aged to match a team. Weedville, Juue 0th 1874. Dkae Advocate. There are some things in this world I dont like to see, For instance I don't like to see young men standing around a churoh door, after service making sport of the ladies; or on tne street corners using profane lan guage. It shows their bringing up. do n't like to see young ladies walking out with cloth gaiters on, when the mub is over shoe top, such a lady is not fit for a poor man's wife. I don't hke to see ladies and gentlemen hunting flowers in the woods after a rain, I am afraid they miuht tako cold. I don't liko to see peoplo go to dunces every night and let things go to rack at home, it shows a deficiency somewhere, I don't like to see an editor omit a com m amotion on account of a marriage notice, it looks as though there was a lack of sense. Now there are things I do like to see. I like to see young men go up to a bar and take a drink I think it looks very manly especially when their fathers were drunkards lor they must have seen how nice their fathers looked when drunk. I like to see church members keep, sober faces in church and when they go home, curse and swear as much as they please, it looks so religious and pious. More Anon , Jenny Jenks.
