We have recently purchased a new Globe printing press, and ore now prepared to do all kinds of job work cheap and in the best style of the art.

We aie determined not to be uudersuld. The American says that during the recent flood the water rapidly raised until it reached the nest of a faithful hen, who was hovering over a nestful of eggs iu the act of incubation on the premises of Mr. Art. Beaver, on lower Market street, Dauville. She continued at her post of duty until the water thoroughly enveloped her aud the next morning she was found frozen on the nest. The Smethport (McKean co.) Miner of last week says that arrangements are about concluded for a thorough test of the oil territory. The location of the first well is .about a mile and a halt northwest of Smethport, The contract for sinking the well has been awarded i and the work of building the derrick has been actively commenced. The company comprise tan of the most re sponsible and enterprising gentlemen of this place, with a capital amply suffi cient to givo it a thorough test. The engine (which is already procured,) derrick, machinery and tools ara to be of the best and most durable material, nothing flimsy, cheap and iusecure be ing allowed in connection with the en terprise. The best judges of oil terri tory are wonderfully confident of the sure success of the undertaking. According to a Washington paper, since the passage of the new franking law committee clerks have been kept busy franking thousands of documents, many of which have been stowed away at the capital for many years past. Congressmen are now able to send through the mail free, and the result is that the postofEce at Washington, is clogged with such matter, tons of it be ing received daily. It is rather eheer- ful to read this and reflect upon the fact that the postage which the people have to pay upon miscellaneous matter has doubled. Wouldn't it be almost worth while to call an extra session of congress to repeal this most odious measure? Certainly a repeal will be the first law put through after congress docs con" vcoe a"aiu. Sittlcment Dat. The first POO tion of an Act of Assembly, approved the Z4th day ot April. 1874. Favs "The Auditors of the soveral townships ana boroughs within this Common wealth shall meet annually on the first Monday of June, and oftcner, if ncces saiy, and shall audit, settle and adjust the accounts of tho Supervisors. Road Commissioner!, Overseers of the Poor. School, Borough aud Township Treas urers, as may by law be referred to them." This is, no doubt, the proper time to settle up School affairs, but it is en tircly out of order, in our judgment, for our oounty so fur as Supervisors and Overseers are concerned. These offi cers are elected in February, and should be ready to enter upon their duties by the 1st of April. Therefore; why not settle on tho first Monday of March? This is long enough after the election to know who is elected, and befora tha March Court and floods would interfere with tho settlement. We would suggest that the Auditor of the several boroughs and townships of this county and the officers agree upon a certain day during the Spring lor settlement, and then adjourn over until the first Mouday of June next nnd settle their School matters, and on that day adjourn over until the first Monday of March, 187G, making a memoran dum of the fact upon tho township book, and hereafter that day will be as valid in law as an Act of Assembly. Clearfield liepvhlican. Us no Stove Dampkrs. These nuisances are now quito common, snd because they "save wood," and thereby save money they are popular By shutting off the upward draft they throw back into the room all tho poi sonousgas generated by the combustion of fuel, and are therefore very destruc tive to health. It is a subject of com. mon remark I bat an open fire-place is more healthy than a stove, and it is largely owing to the better circulation ot the air through the open upward draft. Now it is true that wood miht be saved in a fire-place by covering up the top of the chimney; but wo should not wish to live in the house. And that is exactly the principal on which wood is saved by means of dampers in stove pipes. ! ire may be easily checked by shutting off the supply 0f air in front, and this is the only safe method of checking it in a stove. If all the air could be shut off from the firo iu front, it would go out as quickly as if it were immersed io water. Thus it uuy seem that fire may be well controlled if the stove is tolerably tight iu fiont when closed up. All who do Lot wish to com mit suicide nor to uuderuiine the health of the family will do well to discard stovepipe dampers. Laws of Life. The Aldme for April (No. 10 at' tho cur rent series), certainly presents foitures of excellence cull eling it to something more than the usual aitention: a part of them. too, in a direction which would si months ago have been something of a surprise to those who hJ merely knowu it m an ad mirable exponeat of art. In this isjus. taking time by the forelock in a minaer somewhat startling, it springs to the front in topics and features connected with the Centennial, quite as much, without a doubt , to its own profit, at to the pleasure of its housauds of p urioiij re idjrs. There cm not bo other than a most assured sensation, iu the "Historical ao 1 Contennial Itomance of the ltevoluiion," whloa it oun neucei in this number, under the taking namo of "The Spur of Monmouth," with the addi tional inform uion tint it is written by an "Ex-Pension-Agent," and that llin evetiU 'o be portrayed have been preserved in the memories of eye-wiinesses up to a certain period, and taence couveyel ny one who listened to their naratives iho whole be ing, as the writer phrases it. from cer sonal relations and documents never before made public." Probably no greater plen ure could be imparted to the Anuricaa people, at the present juncture, th in U to be fnund in the knowledge that there is really a romance of the Revolution, of im portance and interest, not yet rublUhcd. and of which we are now to have the read. ing, in the clear type aa 1 oa the fiae p ipor or The -Atdine.

HIS ARRIVAL IN THE CITY LAfcT EVEN ING AN INTERVUW WITH TBB - MURDERER HIS THEORY OF THE CASE HE SAYS THAT BUTLER FIRST SnOT HIM THROUGH THE ARM. We have already recorded the arrest of Joseph Lansbury, the man who eleven years ago shot and killed Colonel Butler in Clearfield county Lansbury was a deserter from the U. S. army, and Colonel Butler was instructed to capture him. It is said that Lans- bury had openly threatened to shoot any man who attempted to arrest him, and Uolonel JJutlcr went to his house with a full knowledge of his danger, and with assistance, prepared for any emergency ot the kind. When Col Butler came to Lansbury's bouse the later shut htm with a rifle, from which wound he died the next day. The most intenso excitement existed at the time, and goverment officials have, dur. ing this long interval, attempted in vain to make the arrest. A warrant for the arrest of Lansbury was placed in the hands ot Detective Rathbone, of tho United States Secret Servioe, on the 18th of March, lie at once proceeded to Liberty, Tioga couuty in wtueh place it was said .Lansbury was domiciled. He fortunately got an intimation of his whereabouts irom some words, inadvertently dropped by Lsn8' buiy's friends at Liberty. Furnishins himself with the paraphernalia of a tree peddler, Rathbone canvassed tho county in tho vicinity of English Centre, and located the murderer. Making '.he ar rangements at Jersey Shore, in com pany with A. B. Miller, assisted by Constable Dingier, of Jersey Shore, Rathbone made the arrest. Lansbury arrived in the city last evening on the eight o'clock way pas senger train. As a matter of precaution, it was telegraphed here that he would arrive on the Pacific express, yesterday afternoon, aud it was not known or ex pected hero that lie would be brought on the way passenger last evening. Upon the arrival of the train at Law reuccville, the prisoner was taken off tho train, nnd officers from the city met tho party with a carriage, and Lansbury reached tbc jail about nine o'clock. AN INTERVIEW WITH THE MURDERER. This morning, through the courtesy of Warden Smith, a Telegraph reporter was permitted to see Lansbury in the jail. As he stopped out of his cell. there was nothiug in his appearance to indicate the murderer or desperado. He seemed rather like a farmer who had just stepped out of his house on a spring morning to go to work. Lans bury is thirty-two years of age, rather tall aud slightly stoop-shouldered. Ho was in his shirt sleeves, and had his pants tucked in his boots. His hair was stringy and disheveled, and his un combed beard exteuded about the lower part of his lce. He seemed unrestra- iucd and open in speaking of the kill ing of Butler, and did not seem to ob ject to talk on the subject. HIS ACCOUNT OF THE ATFAIR is somewhat different from that given above, and, of course, tends to excuse himself lor the killiug of the officer. "It was very early in the morning," he said "when Butler and another man came to my house. I had no room to store my grain, and I had placed it iu the loft ol my house. When Butler came to the house he was not in uniform He broke into the house, aud without telling me who he was, be drew a re volver aud fired at me. The ball struck 2 in the left arm (Lansbury here showed tho reporter how the ball had cut the muscle ot the little liniriirt Well, I thought then that it was a mat ter ot life and death with me, and I reached behind the door, where my rifle was Bittiuii, and took the uun and shot him." DENIES THAT II E TRIED TO SECRETE HIMSELF. Lansbury says that it is uot true that he has attempted ever since tho crime to secrete himself oud avoid arrest, and that he has changed his name on sev eral occasions, lie acknowledges that after the shooting of butler he went to Seymour, Mich., and was engaged fur a year io hauling lumber on the Kawkaw- hit river. He worked here, he soys during the cummer, and although he did not change his name he was gener ally kuown there by a nickname. In the fall he went to Erie county, New York, aud worked there during the winter. He then went to Alleghany county, New Yoik, aud worked a year. llis general occupation during this time was driving a team. He purchased a small piece of land in Cameron county, I a., and lias been living there, he says, ever since. He supposed, be says, that this thing had all blown over, and that be v7ouid not now be arrested. HIS THEORY OF THE ARREST. While in ronvemutinn with our re porter this morning he said that bis ar rest at this late day, was made tor politi cal effect. Tho renni't.r asked tha nrix. - j r oner what gave him thii impression, aud in what manner the arrest could be so used. Lansbury replied that he had bcfn tnhl en l, tha Ktnfua Mn. " " J ."w UU . V. UHl.b. .'.HI - shal, and that bin arrest, bo understood, was more for the purpose of implicatiag others than for punishing himself. The case of Lansbury, whioh will be tried in this citv. nromises to attract great attention, and should it result io nis execution, it will be the arst bang. ing of a United States prisoner since the execution of Mrs. Surratt. The Boston Herald has a pargrapb which is worthy of the attention ot those who are making out Presidential s lutes; ' "Those People who think it imnnsci blft for President Grant to fret A nnillina tion for a tbirdlerm have not looked at the togures. Thera will be 3C9 votes m the Convention. Oi these the six teen Southern States will have 138. Grant could cet all thena ta.Aav C J ) a.u4 48 more would give him a majority. He Would Undoubtedly ha the strmw,. candidate on the first ballot werethe Convention to bo held next week." The Beatty Oil Wall. The "balls" and "bears" art fighting over the status ot the Warren oil well lately struck by Mr. Beatty. Noither party will be likely to give an impartial statement. It was first reported a 200 barrel well. And no one to this day knows whether it ts or is not that mucb, more or less. Tbe operations of the well are shrouded in mystery, which leads many to conclude a large quan tity of oil con be obtained, and that ef forts are being made to provent a yield, and to keep it down to the mark at on time telegraphed, viz. A four barrel well. There is scarcely a sensible man who knows about oil wells but give it as a belief that it is a good .well, and may be made much larger than it is. Tho best that can be done to keep back the oil, it will yield irom fifteen to twenty barrels per day. It has not been pumped as wells are when oil is desired. Tbe well is but a very few feet in the sand rock; and when oil was found and the indications of a copious flowing well discovered, drilling was stopped; but the oil flowed nevertheless, and continues each day on the even tenor of its way, regardless of the "bulls." Tbo tank is covered and locked and the outside world can get no information of a positive nature. But the Warren oil well is not a fizzle, as is being reported, and if it was for Mr. Beatty's interest to have more oil, he would sink the well deeper, and properly adjust his cups and valves. .'..Mr C. W. H. Vcrbaok is putting up a derrick in the vicinity, and will find out for himself whether there is oil, aud in what quantities, beside other parties aro about to sink wells. We perdict a busy season. Parties at a distance need not put the Beatty well down as a fail ure; for it is seldom these kind of fail ures are put under lock and key. Fail ures show for themselves. Warren Ledger. Thurlow Weed has written a letter to express his gratitude to tho legisla ture of this state for the law guarantee ing to boys tho right to learn trades, despite the restrictive enactments of the trades unions. The fact that Mr. Weed is mistaken about the final pas sage of tho bill, does uot render Mr, Weed's opinions any less f'oiciblc. He says that it other states will enact such a law, we may hope to see a generation of boys rescued irom idleness and vice, and after graduating from the shoe makers,' hatters,' lailors,' tanners,' carpeutors,' cabinetmakers, masons,' machinists,' bakers,' and other shops and factories, become eminent alike as representatives and rulers. Every in telligent boy learns during his appren. ticcship how many mechanics have risen, not only to great wealth, but to high positions in their municipal, Btatc and national governments. That kuowlcdge auimatcs, cheers and en courages niui. in what apprentice to the "art preservative ot all arts" did the knowledge that Benjamin Frauklin was an apprentice fail to inspiro a desire and determination to adopt and imitate the examples of industry, sobriety, study aud virtue that cuabled him to rise to positions of usefulness nnd emi nence, and to transmit to posterity a a name that adorns the history of his country. Gaictte and Ihdktin. The People's Friend. It is sus ceptible of easy proof that the Sewing Machine has been a greater blessing to the masses of American people than any invention of the present century. Noth ing else has done so much to save the lives and health ot the wives and mothers, the patient overworked women of the land, who as a class, most needed relief from the burthens of everyday life. Every lather and husband fails in his duty if ho neglects to endow his home with such a triumph ot science as the Wilson Shuttle Sewing Machine.
