Tomlioson, of Cincin unati, Ohio, will preach in the Uni vcrsalist Church, on Friday evening, Oct. 10. 6er vices to con uieuce at 7 o'clock. Mr. J. M. Sharp and family, and Ni. II. II. May, arrived in town last -evening, after an absence of several months. All are well, and apparently (;lad to see Tiouesta again. Some chap captured Dithr'ulge's .'large boat yesterday morning, loaded it with butternuts, and darted down .the river. .The constabulary forcaare -after them, and if they are captured they will learn that the way vt 'small , transgressors is hard. . Daniel Black, proprietor of the Forest Hotel, opposite the Court House desires us to inform the public that tho business will go on as usual, and he will still do all in his power to make guest comfortable. Notice his advertisement ou first page. Fox & Denicr's Pantomime Troupe give an entertainment in Gran -din's Opera House, Tidioute, this even . rri i r . i . nig. xms is sam to do one ot the very best entertainments traveling. Those who wish to see it, can leave here at 5:30 p. in. and return next morning at 8.30. -Our borough schools commenced ou Monday, the upper school being in -charge of Thos. McLean, a teacher of many years' experience. The lower school is taught by Miss Christine Ilammerer.of Warrep. The indications are that the schools will be taught in the best manner, and much good be done thereby. --C. L. Hanna, informs us that 'Home native dogs killed his prairie dogs a few days ago. The prairie .dogs were brought from Greeley, Col- orado, by Mr. Hunim, who captured 'them when they were quite small. As :H natural consequence he feels quite budly about it, and says he would not have takeu $50 for the pair. It will be seen by reference to tho minutes of the District Convention that F. E. Allison, E., of East Hick ory was unanimously nomirated as thellepublican candidate for Assembly. Jf elected, Mr. Allison will represeut the interests of the district in the best manner, and will make a Representa tive who will do honor to his position mid .constituents.

There is a romantic emmineocenear Tionesta, from which cau be seen with one sweep of the eye, the whole beau tiful village, for its entire length, near ly two miles. Standing here U occurred to us that a sketch of the improvements so plain ly dotting the village below would be both interesting and instructive; and, lest the review should be too tedious, it shall be confined exclusively to the last eighteen months: To our left, and not far from Jacob Shrivcr's trout pond, is Charley Hin ton's new purchase, upon which helms erected a cottage. This is the pioneer improvement of the town in this direc tion, being northward from the Court House. Just below is the small dwelling of Mrs. Robb, widow of Daniel Robb, former County Surveyor. Next is Col. P. D. Thomas' large brick manufactory, for home use and export. Then coming down Elm street on its east Bide, is the fine two-story frame dwelling of Jacob S. Hood, for many years a citizeu of the county, and who has plenty in "barn and in store" for the rainy days of life. Ou the same side of the street, and nearly opposite Lawyer Tate's, is Law yer Irwin's home, fully completed and neatly adorned. On the other side is the two-story frame erected by John Wes. Stroup, and now owned by SherifT Van Giesen. On the adjoining lot, James Wood ington a former resident of Lycoming county, has laid the foandation for a new frame. " , At northeast corner of Elm and Helen streets is the fine transformation of T. B. Cobb, oue of the most exten sive and energetic lumbermen in Western Pennsylvania. Part of this magniGccut structure wis formerly known as the "Old Brown House," where the first courts of Forest county were hclJ. ' Just above, Col. Thomas is building a frame for a tenement house. One the west side of Elm street at the coruer of Elm and Helen, Jacob M. Kepler's two aud a half story looms up. Jake is a live Democrat, and ujod to live in Phillipsburgh, Centre county, aud is now the fortu nate possessor of a two hundred barrel well and a two months old boy. Opposite the Court House gounds is a small frame owned by William Hep ler. Just below, tho neat dwelling of Bill Harlan, newly painted and sided, with the historical flag staff in front, from which on all election days aud fourths of July iho "standard sheet" is given to the breeze by the patriotic William. Perhaps the iuflueuce of the old wigwam, which stood on this lot, yet lingers "patiently about." Further down and on the sama side of Elm street, the neat new dwelling of Mrs. C. D. Maine is seen, whose husband owned to Holmes House, destroyed by firo about a year ago. Nearly opposite is Wm. Smear baugh's frame, now occupied tempo rarily as a dwelling by William Law rence and his family. To the right and farther down is the Brick Bank building of May, Park & Co., which, although a young enterprise is a solid and substantial institution. Opposite this again is the large frame block of BonueP& Agnew, iu which is the post office, drug store,and so forth. Bringing the glass to our eye, we seo "Jim," tho post waster, prompt to a minute as usual, with mail bags iu hand, sighting for the ferry aud bound to make tho "up train." Following btill down Elm street, the house formerly owned by A. II. Steele, at one time Cushier of the Tio nesta Savings Bank, aud no wed by Goo. W. Robinson, of the firm of Rob inson & Bonner, has been treated to an additional story, aud a new coat of paint, and now presents a very attrac tive appearance. The Lawrence House, owned by G. G. Butterfield is the largest hotel in town, and was erected by Wm. Law rence. Just opposite, Dr. Blaiue is refitting w hat used to be Ed. Lathy' office, for his abode; putting on additions and otherwise improving the lot which he uow owns. Oa the same side of tho street Wm. Lawrence is putting up a brand-new two story frame, for Btores below and offices above, which is fust approach ing completion. In the rear of liU store he is erecting a chop mill, to be run by steam power. Henry Swaggart, the Butcher, has refitted and modernized tho old meat market, and the hungry population have steak and roast regularly for the first time in the history of Tionesta. Nearly opposite the brick church John Reck, one of the solid men of the place, has laid the foundation for his mansion on earth, which is to be a two story frame worth from $3,000 to $4,000. . In the same enclosure upon the foundation of Judge Dale's former residence, Dan. Walters, Judge Pro per's son-in-law, has erected a hand some frame, two and a half stories, and mansard roof. Then appear the new additions of Charley Randall and Wm. Roberts to their homes. And still beyond, over Judge Pro per's and II. II. May's comfortable homes, is Capt. Knox's steam lumber manufactory, giving its sheets of smoke to the breeze. Just across the Tionesta Creek from this looms up the mammoth mill of George Dithridge, on the Shreve farm, with its slate roof, and glass globe sixty feet in air, reflecting the upward slant of the silting sun. Just above is the iron bridgo, erect ed by the county, spanning Tionesta creek, a thing of beauty. Ou this side, J. N. Teitsworth's new mansion. Then Samuel Haslet's, ou the hill, commanding the view of the liver, for miles, and as neat a home as any man wants in which to dream away the coming years of life. Al. Partridge's addition to his al ready largo dwelling. Samuel Clark's new barn, just in tho rear of Lawrence's mill. Eli Holemau't frame, on Race street. Finally George S. Hunter's new bridge aceross the Allegheny River, gradually rising from the ruin, wrought by last spring's ice and flood. George has plenty of pluck and mon ey, and has fairly earned his reputa tion as a go-ahead man of business. His bridge enterprise will be finished before cold weather comes and will have much to do with tho material growth and inereaso of the county. And all this within eighteen months lust past. What the next eighteen months may bring forth by way of developments and buildings can be pretty fairly estimated from this hasty glance. However, we understand that some fiftoen rr eighteen dwellings alone, are already under contract, or in contemplation, some of brick, and a new block somewhere opposite Ttaki's office, for storea, offices, and a Masouic Hall, is to be erected in the spring. Tionesta is bound to compete in size, as she already excels iu beau ty, any of her sister towns along the river. - She is surrounded by a fine agricultural district. The county is rich in minerals and lumber. Part is yet heavily timbered with pine, hem lock, walnut, and cherry Ac; when cleared it will exhibit some of the finest rolling landiiu the State. Roads are surveyed that leal from Tionesta to all parts of tho county, at easy grades. The tide of population is be ginning to flow in, attracted by the cheapness of lots in comparison with the surrounding tow ns, aud the health fulness of the climate. And general business is daily on tho increase. COUHT l'UOCUKDI.NUH. The following are the cases desposed of, which were not reported iu last week '8 issue : Hays vs Ncill. Plaintiff takes non suit.

The Postmaster of Pittsburgh has proven a defaulter iu the sum of $33, 000. He was arrested and gave bail in $G0,000. . On Monday morning, very early, a young man by the name of Bell was brought before Justice Mercilliott, by Constable Haslet, on a charge of horse stealing. It seems Bell was working, for a man by the name of Allman, at Millerstown ; this Mr. Alt man was formerly from Shamburg, and on Saturday last sent Bell to that place after his cow, furnishing him with a horse and buggy. As Bell was getting ready to start he mentioned an overcoat, and took Altman's against his wife's protestations, while he was away, using language Mrs. Altman considered nngentlemacly, hikI when her husband returned she told him about it, which started his iie and suspicions that Bell wns not going to return, and early Sunday morning he started for Shamburg, but on arriving there could find no traces of Bll, horse, buggy or overcoat. Now he was sure iii his suspicions, and after considerable hard work and sharp practice as a detective, he found Bell about six miles from Shamburg spark ing his girl. After getting a Warrant, and our Constable thev went to the house where Bell was, and proceeded to ar rest him, bringing to Bell's mind the old adage "There is many a s!ip," Ac. On Bell being brought to Alt' mun's presence he explained that as he was uot expected to start back from Shamburg until Monday morning, he thought he would (lrive over and see his girl, thereby having a pleasant time, and, as he told Altman, save his horse feed, these hard times. On be ing brought before Justice Mercilliott he was discharged at once. By tho Courier of yesterday, we see that the insane hospital has been located at Warreu. The site is located on the Concwango Creek and consists of three hundred end thirty acres, for which the consideration was $33,000. So are our hopes, along with those of Titusville, Meadville, Franklin and Erie, blown to the four winds of heavens. It is said that the cost of the buildings will not be less than $1, 500,000, which, in these times, is a sura of money not to be sneezed at. Of course, since this place was not se lected, we are in duty bound to con gratulate the lucky town, and do so with the best grace we can muster. Those who worked to get the buildings located here, deserve the thanks of our people just the some as though their efforts had becu successful. Administrator's Sale.
