This elaborate piece of poetry is not by Byron, but it will be handy to read ton January 1st all the same. Splitting and piling five cords of stove wood in a forenoon is good work for two young men, but when the pile only panned out two cords the record Is not as good. This Is the difference between a guess and the stubborn re ality. Several parties from abroad are huntiug deer in this section. Their efforts have not been rewarded with buy alarming amount of venison, very few deer having been killed by any one except where driven into the river by bounds. The weather has been very un steady thus far this week, first snow, then thaw, and then fog, after the fog more weather.

So "little do they need food that they dictate the kind. One of this kind received a lunch at J. W, Morgester's, which he quietly cast tindvrthe table, after drinking a half gallon of cider. Stolen Property Recovered. About eleven weeks ago a man hired a horsoand buggy of Daniel Scribncr, livery stable keeper at this place, to go and see his brother, who lived near Clarington. After a reasonable length of time, the property not being re turned, Mr. Scribncr drove to Claring ton to see about it The chap had been to see his brother and had gone on, and left no trace behind neither trnee, or vehicle, or horse. I-ast week a tele gram was received by Postmaster Hng rty, addressed to the livery stable keeper at Ridgway, and saying ahorse and buggy were at a certain place in Mutlcr county. Mr. Scribner, from the description, knew at once that tho property Was the same he had hired the man to make the trip to see his brother. The horse and buggy were found by their owner at the farm of Mr. Kcyster, In Slippery Rock town ship,. Butler county, about 130 miles from home, and nearly 35 miles right across the country from Parker. The thief, who proved to be Jerry Hall, a notorious character in the oil regions, although unknown to Mr. Keyster, had left t he horse to board until he should call fo'rit. On several occasions he tailed to get the property, but fall ing to pay for the horse's board he was not permitted to take him. On one occasion he wanted to take the horse and leave the buggy and harness for security, this on pretext that he had sold the horse and would return and pay for his board. Mr. Keystvr's sus picions were aroused and he declined to allow the horse to go without the money being paid; Mr. Scribner brought his property home, and thinks the thief may yet be caught, which would be some slight compensation for the $50 or $60 expense which he has been to. Jerry had previously served a term in the penitentiary, and, be sides had just stolen two suits of clothes, which, with the theft of the property in question, would entitle him to another term in the same place, which we hope he may receive.

At the adjourned term of court, Commissioners Weidert, Reuscher and Osterhout gave bonds in the sum of $5,000 each for the faithful performance of their duties, in accordance with the new act of assembly. James Magin nis and James MtFarlin, are the sureties of Commissioner Weidert 's bail bond, Jerome Powell and James Mc Farlin on that of Commissioner Reuscher, and R. V. Kime and Jerome Powell on Commissioner Ostcrhout's bond. The Advocate is authority for the statement that Elk county will be en tirely out of debt by the 1st of January ensuing, unless something extraordi nary transpires. The part of wisdom will be to keep so, as municipal In debtedness is one of the most common and worst evils the people of this coun try have how to contend with.

Company O, Clarion "Infantry," turnclt out fifty eight strong at the in spection at Meadviile on Tuesday, being the largest in numbers. As to size of the men it took the palm. Thos Near, a youthful member, just twenty one, stands six feet eight inches high in his Stocking feet, and is still grow ing. 1 hen there twenty-six members six feet and over. The company were complimented highly on theirsoldierly appearance and gentlemanly deport ment; All of which makes us feel proud of our boys. The not unusual verdict rendered of " not guilty 1ml to pay the eiwts," half or whole, as the case may to, seems to us one of the anomalies of justice, and reminds us of an obi story. In tho plantation times a Maryland planter sent hi? trusty colored man to Alexan pria to buy the annual supply of her ring and Hhad. He arrived home in due season. "Basil, said the planter, "did you get a good lot of fish?" "Only tol'able, Massa John." "What the devil do you mean by tol'able, ,; said the planter. "Dey only stink u little, ' said Basil. Which is a better defini tion of the word tbitn any dictionary gives, and seems to cover what the jury in such cases evidently desire. The court were rather startled at un incident that transpired on Thursday last. A woman in the court room who held a -baby, the paternity of which was to be proved before that tribunal, became wearied of the law's delay. Taking the babe, a stout youngster of about a .year old, she carried it to the end of the judge's seat, in front of Judge Jer ks, and put it down at his feet, stating who-e it was, and also that she was tired of keeping it and the court could take care of it. The as tonishment of his honor can be better imagined than described- The rigid economy of our board of county com missioners having prevented the pro viding of the appliances requisite for children of that age, the kind hearted judge was forced to cull in the services of Sheriff Dunkle to remove the par ties. This he did umid an audible smile from the members of tho bar and the audience. Peterson's Magazine is already on our table for January, a triumph of art, literature and fashion. Either of the two steel engravings, "The Play mates," or "The Letter at the Gate," is Corth the price of the number.

As boou as the weather will admit another vein will be opened, when it Is thought coal will be found in paying quantities. The opening of a paying coal field in this immediate vicinity would be a source of much wealth to KidgWay, and that the finding of such a field is w ithin the range of possibilities we think will not admit of doubt.
