We publish tho oflicial vote of
Forest County this week, hardly as a
f. f i ufc , .uabla (hose
.Uh to file tMfl for future
rof.M-ence to do so. Our vote is con-
siderably lighter than usual, and our
majorities on the State Ticket smaller.
We have nothing to complain of, so
far us our County Ticket is concerned,
From Jas. Foues we learn of the
death of Mr. Yanlecr Watson, a native
of this county, and for some years a
resident of Newtown. lie died In
Chautauqua Co.. N. Y.. on the 11th
inst. aed 55 years. lie leaves a wife

very highly spoken of, aud huve no

death.
The following, which will be of
interest to several of our readers, is a
special telegram from ashington to
the Pittsburgh Commercial- Gazette, and
anneara in last Saturday's naoer:
Washington. Nov. 16. 1877.
The Government will perfect to tho
purchaser the title to Government
lands in Venango and Forest counties,
Pennsylvania, on which forty four
deeds were lost in transit from Mead
ville to Washington by mail. These
lands sold by the Government for
about $12,000, are reported hero as
worth ten times that sum now, owing
to the oil discoveries.

week ago I said we had procured
board in a German family, and in a
feel perfectly conteutcd in the place of
our choice in lact, 1 don t think we
could have procured a better place in
which to make our temporary home.
The family, although German, speak
the English language fluently, as is the
case with educated Germans in Leip
zig. The members of the household
never address us in any thing but
German, except when it is absolutely
necessary, to make an idea known iu
English, consequently we are compel!
ed, I might say, to become acquainted
the language of the country
Every day I take a private lesson
in German from a lady teacher of
will only take two or three private les-
sons a week. Charley is pursuing the
same course. We are picking up
words and phrases very fast and quite
soon expect to express ourselves cor-

rectly aud readily,
Leipzig is a place of about 150,000
inhabitants, and is mostly noted for its
University and Musical Conservatory
um, both of which are equal to any
institutions of similar character on the
continent
I have heard it stated that there are
about three thousand students here du-
ring the school year; and I do not
doubt it, for at any hour of the day
hundreds of students, noticiceable by
the caps they wear, can be seen on the '
streets.
The buildings in the city are net
conspicuous for their beauty, yet there
a an appearance anout mem mat at
once suggests that they have been

elegantly kept, being paved in the
same manner as American cities,
There are two theatres in the city,
but as I have not as yet attended them,
I cannot say anything about them.
One thing I know, that when I do at
tend a theatre in Leipzig I will hear
I and see no common play, for a German
audience is so critical that none but
excellent productions, and those ren
dcred in the best manner, are ever
brought before them.
There is a very fine art gallery in
the eitv to which Charlev and I went
aud spent a very pleasant afternoon,
Of course it don't compare with the

We have not made any outside ac-
quaintances as yet, and probably shall
not until we become better acquainted
with the lauguage. We could, if we
desired, make the acquaintance of a
few Americans, but our teacher don't
think it advisable, for we would talk
too much English with them, which
would be a detriment to the object ot
our sojourn here

Agent for the White Sewing Machine,

for this machine, in the course of
few weeks. He has disposed of some

her home in Allegheny Township, Ve
nango Co., Pa., on Saturday, the 17th
day of November, 1877, aged 62. She
was the second daughter of Rev. Ilez-
ekiah and Margaret (White) May.
She married John Lamb in the year
1852. whom she survived fourteen
years.
Residing in Allegheny until the
time of her death, she endeared herself I
to a large circle of friends and ac
quaintances as she had at her old Tio
nesta home. Hospitable, uniform in
kindness, winning iu manner, patient
in spirit, in poiutof fact, was "beloved
by all who knew her." Such lives as
hers are subjects of happy contempla
tion. Many hearts will lament her
l0S3.
She combined in an eminent degree
the virtues of her father and her moth
er. Her kind devoted attention to her
mother throughout a course of years is
a shining mark in her memory. A
sufferer herself for some time previous
to her death, ho received (let it be
written) under a kind Providence, a
portion of that kind treatment from
ber friends in return that she had be
stowed on an afflicted mother.
A life like hers, iu short, adorns hu
manity. It is scarcely necessary to
add she died a calm, peaceful and hap
py death. Let no more be written
than to say the memory of her many
friends is the beBt record of her useful
life. S.
