Miss Da vis has since taken it ecli'iol in Hick , orj Twp. Miles NV. Tale, Esq., has. had I hort spell of sickness, occasioned by & bad cold. We aro glad to see that Jio is again around, attending to bust licss as usual. Up to this time wo believe uo arrangement has been arrived at be tween Geo. Hunter and tho BriJgo contractors, Bell it Brrckeurid-'O. Hence, Forest couuty mourns. Grove & Wolcott's well up Hun ter's Ilun, was down 500 feet at last aeeanuts, with good indications. They are drilling for a one hundred barrel well, and we hope they will got it. Within a short time the county officer's have gotten neat gilt signs for th'eir respective odices iu tho Court House. This is an improve on the ' old plan of having to enquiro your way to each officer's room. Burgees, Town Cotincil,Constablc, Assessors, Auditors, &c, wo believe are all sworn in now, ready to dis charge their duties in the best possible manlier and at the least cost to the inhabitants of Tiouesta. The Odd Fellows' Lodge of Tio nesta will hereafter meet on Friday evening of each week. The meetings have heretofore been held on Thursday f vening, but by a vote of the members V the night changed as above, v " It will bo seeu by reference ta an (other column, that Ex-Gov. Geary dicd very Aldenly on Saturday morn- ing last. extensive services, both lit! military and cavil, will make hie menjory as lastiug as n! lias beep . Mr. Kepler's household goods are at the depot, and will be brought across the river as soon as conveniut. ilia family will booh uiovo here and 1ie will then live at home, instead of ' boarding around among the scholars. ,We consider his residence an orna went to tho upper end of town. L. L. Haekett has clapboarded -9 Jiis house just below the mill, which , gives it more of au appearance of per 'inanuuey thau it as heretofore had. Ve notice alsoKn4t some improve reuta are goiug on about the mill, which will probably do 8 good busi ness as soou as the spring opens. Jn looking over t,ie Legislative . Journal, kindly sent us by Hon. Da : 'vid Maclay, we notice that Hon. J. B. Lawson recentl presented petitions of citizens of Jefferson, Clarion, Forest and Elk counties, praying for the re- pat it au act to incorporate llio Clar ion Iiiver navigation ' company, and that the said act be of none eliiet from Baught's mill to' the muiitli f the Cluriou liver. II v. Ilneser will prcacli in the M. E. Cliuch in this place on Sabbath next, morning and evening. We accidentally neglected to give tho nan.es of the School Directors hosen at last week's election, who were B. J. Wolcott and L. L. llackctt. Tho Wooden Wedding at Law rence's on Thursday evening last was well attended, and various appropriate presents were received by the host and hostt's. Good music was on hand, nnd the "Weddingors" enjoyed them selves in the "mazy whirl" until a Into hour, when they departed feeling that they had been well entertained. -We would call attention to the now advertisement oi tno superior Lumber Co. Store, which appears to day. It is very comprehensive, nnd embraces almost "everything that a family needs;" and we are assured that "tho half has not been told Give this Store a cull and vou will not come away empty. The advertisement of E. A. Bald win, Esq., of Tidiouie, appoars for the first time in our paper, this week. Mr. Baldwiu is well known m our county as a superior gunsmith, and a gentle man whom it is a pleasure to meet. If you want good work, good guns, good fishing tackle, or, in fact anything in his line, you cannot do better than to call on him. We understand that arrangements are being made to secure services in tho Univcrsalist Church every other Sabbath, nnd that operations will be gin soon. Itev. O. B. Clark will be pastor of the organization. This church has been occupied by the Catholics for something over four years. Wc do uot know whether both denominations are to occupy the church, but suppose nut. The river is closed at this point at present, the ice having stopped on Monday night, nt some point below. The weather since hiu been hardly cold enough to freeze the ice solid. We tire hoping for a night or two of cold weather, right along, and wc will then have nu ice bridge, which will do an immense sight of good. Several car loads of hard coal, hay, provisions A'c., are at the depot now, waiting for n time when teams can cross. We are nnder obligations t C. L. Hanna, Esq., formerly Superinten dent of the West Hickory Oil Co., for Into copies of the Denver, (Colora do) Tribune. Mr. Hunua is now visit ing his parents in Greeley, Colorado, and we expect soon to have a commu nication from him, describing the country. Our readers, many of whom are acquainted with Mr. Ilauua, will bo glad to hear from him. The new Town Council, with the exception of T. B. Cobb, Esq., who was absent, wore sworn iu on Saturday evening last by Esq. Kpox. W. 1. Mercilliott was elected Clerk of the Council, and S. J. Wolcott, Treasurer. J. II. Stroup was appointed Street Commissioner for the year. The place of meeting for the present is at Esq. Mercilliott's office. The first regular raectiug will take place on Saturday evening next. Mr. John Lowrie, a hotel-keeper of Titusville, died on Monday after noou last from tho eHucis of an over dose of morphine, given by Dr. Kcp hart, of that city. It was rumored afterward that the Physician was about to leave the city, and ha V5 arrested at the fustapco of the Order of Bed Men, to answer to a charge of manslaughter. Front tho testimony elicited we should judge the over-dose was giyen pther through iguorauco than malice. The Clarion Presbytery will mcef nt the Presbyterian Churcl) at Clarion, on Tuesday, the 18th day of February, 1873, at 7 o'clock P. M. Among other business to be brought before the meet ing, is the appliefctiou for Ilev. J. S. Elder, to devote his whole time to the Church of Clarion, instead of dividing it between two churches as heretofore. Ilev. E'dup i very popular with the Clarion Church, and in fact every where he js knowa, and we think the church at that place is doing a wise thing to securo all of his time. Job Printing.

At tho election held on the 3d inst., Forest county gave thirty-four majority "For Licence." There was not much canvassing done on the ques tion, nnd a comparatively small vote was out. As several counties round us have voted "Against License," wo will have the benefit, if there is any benefit in It, of having all the whisky that is for sale in this part of the State, for three years; thnt is, if tho Legislature don't repeal tbe act. When tho bridge is again in crossing shape, wo expect to sec a continuous string of teams crossing to this sido to get their beverage. Grcut is whisky. When you nre in Mcadvillc, just look around until you find the Jewelry Store of M. P.
