Mrs. John Cuytoti died nt the res ilience of her luisbnml, ot llcnr Creek, last evening. Wc fire without partic ular. Kcv. O. li. Clark has sent us a season ticket on the beautiful little fteiimcr "May Martin," which saiksthe placid waters of Chautauqua Lake. Wc uro obliged to Kcv. Clark and the owuers of the boat for the favor. The circus bill board, which in terfered greatly with our view of tho liver scenery and Dericks.Hn Co.'s tave piles, has been torn down by Cnjit. Knox, who willies to iic the luiubrr for other purpose?. Mrs. Swaggnrf, ami n lilllo pon ofM. Illle, Jr., are at present (seller ing with typhoid fever. It was nt one tiuu! thought that Mrs. Hwaggart would not recover, but we believe she U improving at present. Some man whoso name wc have forgotten, is to gu over Isiiigiira l'ulli on a raft to"-day. The i a ft is gotten up on Hcicniilic principles', nnl the man expects to live to tell the world all the sensations of the wonderful trip. If ho loses his life in the toad adventure, ii will probably he the nunns'of keep ing others from Hiicidiug by that method hereafter. At 1 !n; adjourned session of Court held this week, an order was made thai a Cirand Jury bo sonitnonoil and t j'!e I fr tin September Scsmoih of t.'onrt , subject, however, to be. coun termanded by Judge Dale, by tho 1st of September, if t ho criminal business accrued by that time does not seem to wni rant the attendance of Grand Ju ry. If so coiitenuanded, due notice will bo given in the county pupers. Tho N. (i. P. are arrivyig nt their homes, and are being made the recipients of enthusiastic, welcomes. This is correct. Those men who have always been sneered at by veterans as "Sunday Soldiers," who had the saud i lo go where there win actual danger, are deserving of praise and haoquetsj The ones who didn't go, or who after having got to the front, came back w ilh frivolous excuse?, will not stand very high with their respective rum-mnndi. Wo have heretofore mentioned thai Mr.- Clus. Homier contemplated a trip to Europe, for the purpose of com-, pleling his education. Ifc will start om tl uio during next month, and ' lien, son of Mr. II. II. May, will pmu ably make tho trip with him. They will proceed to Ileidelburg, the great (ierman institution of learning, and, lifter absorbing the course there, will it rave l a few mouths for their instruc (ion aoJ amusement. Wo expect to receive regular communications irom our young friends, which wo will pub lish in due course. Mr. Darrah, manager of the Su perior Lumber (Jo. Store, has taken ihe agency f.r tho Morris Nurseries, situated at West Chester, I'a. These jS'urscries supply everything in the hapo of Fruit and Ornamental Trees, jShrubliery, Vine?, Itoscs, Ac., at rea sonable prices. It will be an advan tage to our peopla to have a respond bio agent at home, of whom they can .order what they'want with the a&ur Vc that they can get what they or ( b r. i 'all on Mr. Dai rah at the Su- jK-ii.-n Lumber C ,. h'toir. J t A few ensrs of diphtheria aro re ported in this county at present. It is to bo hoped that the disease will not bcnomo epidemic again. Some of the best hunters in the country have been out searching for squirrels, but mourned because they were not visible. We have beon out ourself, nnd concur in the report of tho other good hunters. Kev. Llliot departed forChautau qua Lake on Monday morning last, to snd the week. While thcro last week, ho had tho good fortune to catch n ten-pound pickerel, w hich made him more envied among the clerical breth eru than if ho hail delivered the best discourse of the session. The New Yorl; Aquarium has lost nearly one half its fish by eome ono poisining tho water with white lead. The man, or thing who would do an net of this kind should be filled with white lend, have his head pounded in to a brush, and used to whitewash the characters of the Mollio Magutres. On Monday morning last, Messrs. McCreary, Townsend and Peate, nil M. Ik Mi (list ere, the latter of whom is Pcsiding Elder of tho Franklin Dis trict, passed through town, with a lot of provisions, luggage, wall-tent, shot gun, etc., tn their way to tho woods, for a woek of ruslihation and recuper ation. Dope they will be- greatly benefitted. Jim Sivailes is about to move bis barber shop into the little house across tho street from his present quarters. This house is on disputed territory, aud it might bo well for Jim to keep his weather eve peeled, or tho parties in the affair mignt take it into their heads to move their land out from un der him and. leave him hanging upon nctliinir. Col. Thomas expects to move in I to his new house about the middle of I next-month. He is building an im- meuse !i mount of stone wall ubovo bis bouso to keep tho hill from sliding down upon h:iu. Also several other walls all about the premises. When finished, he will have a property which will withstand the attacks of old Father Ti'ats better thao any oth er in fur city limits. Camp Meeting commences at Lickir.gvillo to-morrow. There will be a great demand for rigs to attend the same about next Sunday, particu larly as there are no services in town on that day. In the past there have been some interesting times at those camp grounds, but latterly a sort of a police system has been in force, and rowdyism is not as prevalent as it used to be. A well is going down on the old Copelaud farm, on land belonging to J. Kepler and others. It is being put down by Copclam's and Gleasoiis. The big hole is down 100 feet, and casing is to be put in at once. Azro, n ho has u good interest, gels insulted if a per- j son ventures to intimate that tho well will be less than 400 barrels. It will be d nvn in about three weeks if the operators have no bad luck, and we will give our renders the result. The Oonrland farm is in Harmony town ship,, up near the bead of Hunter's Kim. m Most of our citizens are taking time by iho forelock, nnd providing against strikes and c:dd shins by lay ing in their winter's supply of hard coal. Twelve car loads arrived at Tionesta station in one day last week, and was distributed around town in quantities to suit cash customers. Soft coal is somew hat of a scarcity iu town at present, and nearly everybody is burning wood. ly tho way, if any of our subscribers wish to bring us in a load or two of soft coal, we will be glad to place tho amount to their cred it. --The last Forest i Vow gives as on item of uews, tbat "Mr. William Law rence of Tionesta Borough, is the Re publican candidate for the ofiico of Treasurer of Forest County at tho en suing election." This may be news to a few ot the Democrats, but it is not news to a singlo Republican of Forest County, ns it was published in the Foi:tT lki:iTHUC'Af on July 4th. About the same time wo had several inquiries as to why wc did uot have Mr. Lawrence's name up as the "Re publican Ticket." The reason is that we thought one man made a pretty slim ticket, and thought we'd wait un til iLo State nominations were made, when Mr. Luwrencu'a name will be properly hoisted with the rest of the e;.:i !i dat-.s. Lacytown Correspondence. Lacytown, Aug. 14, 1877. Fi. Kf.pi'ui.ican : Ca m meeting ap pears to bo the only excitement hero nt present. All Xhe horses and car riages in tho place have been engag ed for next Sunday ; even S. C. Koupe's muBtang and cart-wngon, we believe, has been spoken for. Our little town will present rather a deserted appear ance if tho weather is pleasant, next Sunday. Lawyers Tate and Irwin spent the day in our town last Thursday, at terding to some business for George Lacy, of Galenz-i Mills. One of the most forlorn set of men we have seen, for almost an ago, were those Bevcn grass-widowers, perched on the front steps of the Forest Hotel, one evening of last week ; the sad ex pression of their eyes seemed to say "why are we thus ?" J. B. Hjgerty, while on his vay up to Lacy's mills a few d.iys ago met an old bear and two cubs. Tho old one greeted him with a growl and leisure ly passed into the woods. We have no doubt but some of our "mighty ninirods" will bo looking them up lat er in the season. Rattlesnakes seem to be almost as plenty as blackberries with us. Not lees than a dozen have been killed within a milo of us in the past two weeks, measuring from, three to five feet in length. Mrs. Frank Bowman, daughter ot II. Wentworth is dangerously ill with billious fever at her Mother-in-law's house. Sadie Arncr's school ou Dutch Hill closed about one week ago, she is now rusticating among the blackberries on C. M. Arner's farm situated about twelve miles up Tiouesta creek from here. Ma rue. We ow n a hen, and we don't wish it understood that we are im mensily wealthy, nor purse pouud be cause we own a hen which is capa ble of supporting itself underVmy and all circumstances. . We have it nt the farm of Mr. Lewis, ou this sido of Ty lersburg, under a course of training. It steuls its nest, goes oil" in the woods and raises a large and respectable family. At the barn, when the horses are fed, she flies up into the feed-box, aud give the horse's nose a few pecks with her beak; if the horse doesn't then stand back and allow her to sat isfy her appetite, she flies up into bis face, grabs him with beak nnd claws, and beats him with her wijgs until he is perfectly willing to postpone action upon the oats until sho bus finished her repast. She is of the black-breasted red game variety, aud was hatched from a setting of eggs procuied from Mr. A. McLaren, dealer in fancy breeds of chickens, Meadville, Pa. Mrs. Col. Dewees and son arriv ed in town last week on a visit to her parents and friends. Billy Blum and II. W. Roberts have' gotten up a new sign on tho blacksmith aud wagon shop owned by the former, and partially occupied by the latter. The machinery for T. J. Payne's new mill, which he is putting up near Tylersburg, was hauled through town yesterday. Mr. Payne is oue of the most thorough lumbermen of this re gion, and will be ruuuing about the first of September. . A large rattlesuake, captured by Frank Sao foul, afforded amusement to a crowd in the road in front of the Post Office on Mouday evening. It was played with until public opinion demanded its death, wheu it was kill ed. Somo of these chaps will play with their death some dry.
