Church of this placo for -the last time as its regular minister on Sunday Inst. The Erie Conference -meets at Brookville, next week, and there will probably bo a change 111 this -circuit. Tho name of S. D. Irwin, Esq., is -announced in to-days paper as a can diilate for District Attorney. The time is short and there are several offi ces waiting for appicanU. Gentlemen -brush up your patriotism, and suffer for the sake of your county. Mr. Daniel Walters is putting up a' residence on the foundation of Judge Dale's house, near Proper & Keek's store The frame is already up, and if it dovelops beauty as it progresses: it will be, when finished, one. of the most beautiful residences in town. Lawrence lias purchased the lot situated between Dr. Bluiue's proper ty aud the Superior Luxbcr Co. Store. Thqro was talk of his starting a chop mill aud feed store there, but whether that is now his intention ve are not aware. Some of our citiicns departed for the blackberry pickings on Whig Hill yesterday morning. No doubt they will get berries enough to last them until next picking. For those who enjoy having their hands scratch cd, and the akin burned off their hands jt is nice business. -Probably all those of our readers Who were members of the 83d Pa. Reg't will remember II. S. Campbell, at one time Lieut.-Col. of that regi ment. We are sorry to record that Jo. Campbell died on the 5th inst., at Lincoln, Nebraska, lie was Warden f the State Penitentiary at the time of his death. ' Dr. Blaino has purchased the office now occupied by Mercilliott as a law office, aud will wake some changes and additions thereto, and live there until next spring, when he will build a comfortable residence in tho rear of the office. The location is a fine one, and with a few changes can be made a very comfortabjp place to live. On Wednesday last as several in dividuals from, town were picking whortleberries on one of the hills across the river, a rattlesnake made a pass at Jimmio Hillings, and struck him on one of his boots, leaving the roar kg of its teeth in the leather. It s needless to say that tho snake was dispatched in short order, but it was a el 080 call for Jim. Pianos and Organs.

During last winter a bill was passed providing for the erection of an insane hospital for the counties of Erie, Craw ford, Mercer, Venango, Clarion, War ren, Elk, McKean, Jefferson and For est, to be located in one of these coun ties. - The bill has just been signed by the Governcr, and has therefore be come a law. The Commissioners' ap pointed to select the location trnd su perintend the construction of the buildings, are, Dr. Kirkbrido, of the Pennsylvania Hospital of Philadel phia, Dr. Curwin of the State,' Insane Hospital of Ilarrisburg, and General Beaver, of Centre county. The loca tion and the building contracts are subject to the approval of the Gover nor. . As soon as the bill was signod there wero several suggestions by different apsrs as to the ground to bo selected, ut we have looked over the different claims, and have failed to discover any inducements which can compare with those presented by our own place. As remarked by the 2Y,Forest county is the geographical centre of the pro posed district, and the county seat is more accessible from all parts'" of the district than any other town or city in it. And as the beauty and healthful ncss of this place, we vonture to say that there is not another location in the district to bo compared with it. With very little expense or trouble, puro fiesh water, tho best in the world, could be brought down from any of the surrounding hills and carried through all parts of the buildings. In addition to these reasons, we have a more weighty one, which, although it may not have much to do in deciding the claims of this place to the hospi tal, will at least show the liberal spirit which actuates some of our laud-owners about here. Mr. Sickles was in formed that an asylum wus to be built iu the districtand immediately sent tho following reply: 79 NA88AU St., New Yoisk, ) . . Aug. 23d, 1873. J" V. W. Masox, Esq., Sir: Your note nf the 21st inst., reached me this morn ing. I shall be most happy to donate ten acres of land unoti any part of my out-lands to tho object named. I shall b'e,plcased to hear that the commis sioners have selected Tiout-eta as the site for the proposod institution. You can scud a copy of this note to the commissioners, or make the communi cation of my offer as may suit you, with the assurance that my offer shall be fulfilled to the letter. Very Respectfully, Geo. G. Sickles. This offer wo consider very liberal, notwithstanding the fact that if tho asy lum is built here Mr. Sickles will be benefitted thereby in ihe increased value of his land. The commissioners, we havo no doubt are men who will conscientiously do the duty assigned them, and if this bo the case we have uo fears but Tionesta will be the place settled upon as the location of the new asylum. The Spectator man is paving the way for the Democratio nominee for Supreme Judge, by . detracting from the merits of Hon, I. G. Gordon, for that position. Everybody who knows Judge Gordon, knows that no man mire worthy, more, honest, or better qaluified could be chosen from either party. But things have come to such a pass that unless the Democratio pa pers vilify, slander and ridicule Re publican caudidates, wo are apt to be suspicious that there is something wrong with them. For instance if the Spectator had told the truth about Judge Gordon, we should be afraid to support him, for fear ho was both dis honest and incapable. It has come to this pass. Politics are carried on in such a way that if an honest man seeks an office he is at once set down by op position papers either as a thief or a fool, perhaps both. It's disgusting, but its the fact. But Judge Gordon cuu rest perfectly easy as f.r as this portion of the State is concerned, as he is generally known, aud highly re spected by all good men of , both par ties, and such inuendocs as the Specta tor in Julges in will probably raise him even above the Jiigh position he now occupies in the estimation of the peo ple. He should seud the editor of that paper a few greenbacks and have him keep on as he has started in; every oue of those falsehoods are mak ing votes for Gordon. The Militia of the 20th Division of Pa. will be reviewed by the Adju tant General of the Plate, in Mead ville on tho 18ih and UMLi of September. On Monday a preliminary trial of the man who was arrested on sus picion of being a horse-thief, came off before Justice Mercilliott. ' It appear ed that the man who claimed the horse did not come forward to substantiate the story which caused the arrest of Rath, the supposod horse-thief, and as the evidence was not sufficient to hold biro, he was discharged. Mr. Morgan, the gentleman who gave Rath iu charge, was held for the costs. It's a mixed up case at best, and everybody except Morgan seems to have acted su'spicously in the premises. If any explanation of the case is ever arrived at, we shall present it to our read ers at once. Later. The real owner of the horse was in town this morning, and cleared up the mystery. His name is Stubble, and at Katon Furnice, Cla rion county, his father fed his numer ous flocks. The horse was stolen from him recently; the Jefferson county horse and thief were entirely different, both having been secured about the same time this chap was taken. The owner offers (50 reward for the horse, or $100 for the horse and thief. Bring him in again. The Petroleum Centre Record has the following item in regard to a couple of our Forest county chaps, which we publish with much more satisfaction than we would havo pub lished an obituary notice of the same individuals: There come near being au accident at the Crawford St Thompson saw mill, on the Skinner farm, a day or two since. Mr. Jas. Haggerty had charge of the saw. He had run the frame through once sawing off the outside slab of the log, and had run it nearly through agaiu, when by some means tho sawed end of the plunk swung around against the saw, which in the twinkling of an eye almost, tore the heavy plauk off and sent it flying through the side of the building, in its course passing in dangerously close proximity to tho heads of Kclse Craw ford and Jim. Haggerty, and lodging some distance away in the woods. Not much of an accident, but yet Kelso aud Jim appear to think it was a pretty loud call for them. The machinery was but slightly injured. v- " . Jim. was iu town on Monday, but he is one of these chaps who don't court notoriety and didn't say any thing to us about his narrow escape. We are glad it was no worse, and that both gentlemen still retain their pres tine beauty and excellent good shape. Mr. II. II. May and his grand daughter, May Kelly retnrued from Cape May, on Saturday last, and Mr. aud Mrs. Kelly and tho balance of their family returned yesterday morn ing. Mrs. May is at Mansfield, Ohio, visiting with her daughter there. We understand that all have enjoyed them selves highly while there, and they certaiuly look as if the trip had been beneficial to them.
