The immediate vicinity of Clar ion boro is being tested for oil. I --Plowing has commenced, and early potatoes aro being planted. Tho Pa. State Fair will bo held at Washington, Washington county this year. Knox's mill started up last week. They have logs to keep them sawing several weeks. We treat our readers to another "Supplement" of interesting reading matter this week. Col. Ileisingcr of tho Mejtdvilje llcpullican favored us with a call ono evening last week. Mr. nnd Mrs. J. K. Brush were united to the Presbyterian Church, last Sabbath morning. Work on the new court house ftt Ridgway, Elk Co., has commenced. It is to' bo built of brick. Misses Jessi and Grace Davis of Warren, are visiting in town, tho guests of Miss Maud Davis. Tho Tidioute Clomp, amateur, has changed hands, Mr. W. F. Jones hav ing sold out to Mr. Chas. Morrison. Some more new signs aro visible in the last few days. Tho Bank, Tate & VanGicscn, and Stvailcs have nil becu "signed." t James Swaverly has fenced in the vacant lots back of the Court House, and will raise a crop of some kind thero this .summer. Potatoes no doubt. The last three or four days of pleasant weather, have had the ffl'ect to dry the roads up considerably, and the teaming is becoming injure brisk. Last Sunday was a most pleasant day, nnd ve fear a great many of the speckled beauties were allured from their native clement bv the sinful angler. 'Wie first string of trout which has come under our notice, was one con taining thirty, captured by Jas. llu lings on Saturday. Jim merely let U3 see them, that's all. The Lawrence Uouso has received a frcsli cout of paint inside; some new paper has bron hung; tho doors nnd pannels have been nicely grained, and things freshened up generally. Mr. Robinson having purchased the old Ensign lot, on the bank of the back channel, is putting a fence around it, preparatory to raiding some garden truck there 'this summer. Will. 1 rulings, who has been at tending Commercial College in Louis ville for some time past, has gono to Nebraska to seek his fortune. Hope you may have success, "Beasom." Tionesta has not been blessed, or bored with an orjfan-grinder, yet this season. When these knights of the crank have been starved out every place also they will then light down upon U3. A large boiler belonging to Ford & Lacy passed through town yester day, en route for Red Hot Mills. It is intended to take tho place of the one which exploded with such clisas trous results last fall. Among thearrivajs a"t one of the hotels in Oil City, on Monday, as pub lished iu'the Derrick, wo. notice "Chai Bowser and ladies, of Tionesta." We were not nware thai such a person lived in Tionesta. The Clarion Republican of last week hoists the name of U. S. Graut for President in 1880. Although per haps a little permtituro, wo think, from the present outlook, the Republican has just about guessed it. A bill to lay a tax on oil rigs is receiving considarabla attention in our legislature. If such a bill were to pass it would effectually stop develop ments in Forest county for soma time. We fervently hope Mr. Wheeler will use his vote and influence against the measure. Mrs. Dauovan requests us to state that she will open an Ice Cream par lor at her residuuee, in Mr. Agnew'a house, above the Court House. She will have fresh ice cream every Tues day and Saturday evenings, commenc ing next Saturday, and all who with to enjoy a pleasant walk, and refresh themselves with a nice dish of ice cream can do eo by calling oa ber Messrs. Jamieson & Copeland are running their stavo mill, on tha Woods tract, day nnd night. For the benefit of tho fair sex and young lovers wo will state that trail ing arbutus ii in full bloom. Engineers aro at work surveying tho route of the new railroad from Ship penville to Bradford. The road will bo rapidly putdicd forward to comple tion this summer. Judgo Boggs died at Kittanning last Friday night, very snddcnly. He was President Judge of Armstrong county, was about sixty years of ago, und well and favorably known in that section. Talk about quick trips nnd fast running, Messrs. Hillings and Roupe started a raft l.rre on Friday nfternoon at 2 o'clock, and landed in Pittsburg on Saturday evening following in time for supper. Gen. Juhn A. Dix, ex-Governor of New ifork, and a great statesman and military man, died at his home in New York, on Monday evening. In Gen. Dix's death tho country loses a truly great and noble man. Ho was in bis eighty-first year. A couple of velocipedes mounted by boys, and passing a fractious horse in front of the Central House, yester day, came near furnishing us with a first-class local item. The blamed strap with which the animal was hitched was too Btroug. Wi!l. Wanzor wears tho sucker belt. Last Saturday night he built a fire on Hunter's island, opposito the Rural House, and set up for an all night siege. He brought in a string of thirty, from which we would infer that his plan was a suck-ccss. Mr. Kepler will soon commence the erection of a new hcuso on the site of tho one recently burned. It will bo built of brick, and Mr. A. R. Paup, who built Mrs. Thomas' mansion, has tho contract for putting it up, which is sufficient guarautee that it will soon be completed. Mr. Win. Richards, jobber, for Messrs. May & Kelly, has had a very successful time driviug their logs and landing them safely at tho mouth of iho creek. The boom is now packed full from the mill to tho creek bridge; in nil, Mr. R. informs us, over seven thousand pieces. Tho mill which will start up this week, will be kept run ning till late in the fall. The new ten-dollar inteiest-bear-ing notes are now in the market, and are being taken at the rate of from one to four handled thousand dollars per day. They are the best invest ment yet offered for poor men. They will pass current at their face, and are handy for. any one to have. They can be had at any of tho National Banks. Tho Allegheny Riot bill is a dead duck. It was voted down in the House on Wednesday last, the voto standing 98 to 101. The friends of the bill aro now ou their ear, and will press a bill imposing a tax on oil with all their might and main. Which action on their part in well calculated to draw tho sympathy of tho people of tho north-western portion of tho State in a horn. Sparks from a locomotive &et tho woods on (ire opposito town, yester day, and the leaves being dry, a con siderable space was burned over. Lynching is too good for tho miscre ant who would wilfully set fire to the forests, and we think if a few of these malicious characters were caught and made an example of, there would bo les3 of this mischief perpetrated. These fire3 not only ruin a vast amount of timberbut destroy our small game, such as pheasants, quails, and rabbits. A deaf and dumb tramp was in town last week, and called upon us for enough to take him to Tidioute. TTe gave him the last quarter we bad, for which he expressed his gratitude by signs. He represented himself as a pressman, and wanted to go to his home in Cincinnati ; he had recom mendations from two prominent Mer cer county newspaper men, from which we were led to belicvo ho was a worthy object. After gathering up what loose change he could in town, however, he went to one of our hotels and spent it for beer and whiskey, at the same time exhibiting considerable money. It's very humiliating, indeed, to be beaten by a deaf aud dumb man. Frank Robbins, Photographer, of Oil City never fails to give perfect atisfaction. His place is on Sycamore btreet, near Union Depot. It. The Sunday Derrick has niado u wonderful discovery in Forest countv. It tells hoT a fihing party on tho ead waters of Coon creek found a re- !iarkable cive, which falls little short f the Mammoth cavo of Kentucky, ho party consisted of Alex. B. Jones, ."bns. Hogtn, John Murray, George 1 tunn, Aler. Peters and Joseph Bra ( y, all of whoru live in Forest county, near Maricnville. Tho .paper states that Jones aud Murray mado some torches out of pine knots and went into the cave, the entrance to which was a hole about three feet high and two and a half wide. After proceed ing two or threo hundred feet, they found many curious sights, numerous small stalactites, formed by tho drip piug of tho carbout.to of lime, depen ded from the roof of the cavern. The men spent several Lours in exploring the mysterious cive, and finally emerged, having, as they supposed, traversed several miles. Aro there any of our readers who know of any such a marvel existing in that legiou? If soj wo would like to hear from them. We have heard of a cave in that vi cinity before, but never supposed it was such an extensive one. The Der rick premises to send a party out to further explore and examine the won derful disjoveiy, and wo hope their investigation will not prove it to be what we fear it is: a myth. Hou. J. B. Agnew and family de parted on Monday for Harrisburg, where Mr. Agnew will accept a posi tion under Mb Dunkle, Secretary of Internal Affairs. Mr. A. has held the most important ofSces wilhin the gift of his Forest county friends, having been Sheriff three years, over five years Prothftuotary, Register &c, and for fuur years represented the county in the legislature, and he was always found at-bis post when duty called. His friends will bo pleased to learn of his appointment to a position in such an important department, and if he attends to the duties of his office there as strictly as be always ba3 here, Mr, Dunkel will have no cause for com plaint. We wish him and his family a pleasant fctay in Harrisburg. Du ring Mr. Agnew'a absence his pension business and other matters will be looked after by P. M. Clark Esq., while his legal business will be atten ded to by attorneys with whom he has arranged. He doesn'ttwish it under stood that he will give up his residenco in Tionesta, but will leave a great por tion of his household goods here, and will be here frequently to look after his affairs Tho Venango Citizen says: A certain man from Forest couuty went dowu the Allegheny last neeK and fell amonj Pittsburgh sharpers. Ar riving at the Union Depot on Sunday with $200 in his pocket, he started for the South Sido ou a sticet car. The car and the man reached Fifth ave nue, but the money stopped off by the way in some mysterious manner. He unfolded his short but moving tale to the Mayor. -The May number of "The Nurse ry" is before us, as bright and cheerful as ever.

Emma Davis ffas neither absent nor tardy during the month. J. W. Wai ker, Teacher. The New Rail Road. An intelligent wiiter of tho Oil City Derrick, under late date, writes an ex tended communication on the subject of tho proposed railroad from Ship- penville to Kane and Bradford. The writer is well informed, having becu over the route, and paints tho pros pects of tho road in gUwing colors. He truly states that the certain pros pects of the road has awakened in the minds of oil men along the line a great interest, as well as the fact that "the proposed road does run tho length and centre of the future oil fields beyond a doubt." That wise oil men for the last two years have been in vesting along the line of said route. Hp further truly remarks "that from Tylersburg to Kane to roule is rich iu pine, hemlock, cherry, ash, white wood, curly and bird's eye maple, black birch, etc., all of which timber commands a good price when it can be shipped without miles of wheeling to a depot or has a water way to market. Of these timbers cherry just now is in very active demand, tho fact is that ebony furniture is uow "tho thing" Jo have iu tho rooms of 'upper teudom,' and cherry is the best thing to make ebony out of, (but that is a secret for the patrons of tho Derrick only.) Asido from this use to which it is being extensively put it i3 in great demand for other purposes. 'Already iu Jenks and Howo townships, Forest county, I was told largo quantities of this lumber have been taken out iu the last two winters and shipped to Buffalo, Albany and New York via the Philadelphia & Eric railroad, and yet you go through the woods and don't see that it has made 'any hole in the pile." The route as described would seem to bo near the line of the Big Level road, and is pronounced one of the most feasible and inexpensive routes in the State, there being no dangerous ravines to dread or laud slides to fear, but pursuing the high level lands on the dividing ridge, between thestreams of Tionesta creek and the Clarion river. The able article concludes: "The wonder is that it was not pushed through two years ago ; it would have paid for itself ere this, but it's the best project now in tho oil field, and soon we will be able to eat breakfast hot in the lower region and dinner in the upper."
