Sells Bro's Great European seven elephant circus and menagerio will exhibit nt Tidioute on Tuesday, May 20- The Dithridgo mill is now run ning full time from eix to iix and is averaging twenty thousand feet per day. Inviiations nro out for tho celebra tion of the crystal wedding of Dr. Co burn and lady, to take place on the loth of this month. Clarion is making pveperations for a Loan Exhibition. In the way of uoveltics a living game of chess will be played, with 32 characters all in costutno. President Hayes crushed the Army Appropriation Bill with its in famous "political riders," last week, by stepping on it with his "little ve to," as it were. Our efficient Chairman, E. L. Da vis Esq., this week issues a cull for a meeting of the Republican Couuty Committee on court week. Let there be a full attendance. Miss Flora Ford, of Meadville, is visiting at Nebraska, Pa., the guest of Mr. Arncr's familj. Wo believe she expects to spend a portion of the sum mer months in that pleasant hamlet. , By reference to the proper placo it will be seen that Mr. Lewis Arner, of Green township, is this week an nounced ns a candidate for Associate Judge, subject to Republican usages. Can't Tiouesta have an archery club this summer? Wo have some ex cellent material in town, and there's no doubt but that a little practice would make experts of a good many. The roads have dried up rapidly, arid teumsters are doing a "staving" business ; at least two or three dozen .team's pass through town daily loaded with slaves, which are shipped at this depot. The Bradford Sunday News, a new venture, reached us last week. It's appearance will at once recom mend it to the good graces of the people. "May it live long and pros per." Mrs. Price lectured in tho Presby terian Church on Friday night last, her subject being the evils, of Social ism and Communism. The attendance was small, owing to insufficient adver" tiding. " A petition is in circulation pray ing the Legislature to pass uch laws as will aid the deserving poor to emi grate to the public lands in the States and Territories of the "West. It is being quite extensively signed. Mr. Bradbury has been carrying his hand around in a sling fur some time. Some say it's a felon, others say it's a catarrh, and others tuy it is neither, but Sye fays it's bad enough, so it don't make any difference what the "matter" is. Mr. John Green, Tylersbnrg's en terprising merchant, passed through town tho other day on his way to the Eastern cities to lay in his btock of Spring goods., Mr. G. does a nice business in Tylersburg, notwithstand ing the dullness of the times. . Geo. Hunter is having the vacant building at tho west end of the bridge repaired, and among other improve ments it haying quite an extensive "condition" built on the back part. Wo have not learned who expects to occupy it, when completed. Collins' . mill at Nebraska has started up for the summer's run, Mr. Lyman Cook having cherire. Tho preseut low stage of water is rather to their disadvantage. Messrs. Ford & Lacy have commenced hauling boards on the plank road at that place, und several rafts have already been put in. With the present arrangement this firm is enabled to put their lumber to market as fast as it is sawed, provided they have sufficient water. Last Thursday, about noon we were considerably startled by cries of fire, and upon looking out wo were still more startled to see quita a large (lame issuing from the roof of J. D. Ilulings house. In less time than it takes to tell it 20 or 30 men had gathered, and buckets of all discrip tions were brought out. Men were not long getting on the roof, and the ap plication of a dozen or two pails of water had the effect to check the flames. The fire originated by a spark from the flue fatliDg on the Bhingles, which are old and dry as tinder. A hole about two feet square burned in the roof was the only damage done; but a few moments more and the fire could not have been controlled. We see by our exchanges that Decoratien Day, which comes on Fri day 30th inst., is to be appropriately celebrated in nearly all the neighbor ing towns. AVe would earnestly , sug gest to our citizens that a fiiting? ob servance of the day be bad iuTioneita and in fact all over the county, where thero are any soldiers hurried. It costs nothing, is very little trouble, and is, or should be a pleasure for all lo do this homage to the memory of the heroic dead. Let some one take the initiative step, and there is not a particle of doubt but that all our citi zens will lay hold and aid to carry it through successfully. Mr. Einstein has just returned from the East with the largest and most complete stock of spring and summer goods that he has brought to town for many years. He has them all unpacked, marked and on the shelves, and is ready to receive his customers as fast as they have a mind to flock in. To show that he is selling chcapor than ever he says ho has cali co from three cents up, and pants from 50 cents up, aud all other goods in proportion.. He invites the public to call and look over his goods and pri ces. While out pleasure riding yester day afternoou Mr. Geo. Hood and Miss Hattie Itiel narrowly escaped serious injuries by their horse running away. It occurred on the hill about three miles out of town. The horse took fright at some object by the way side, andruuning a short distance, the carriage up-Bet throwing the occupants out, happily with no more serious in jury than a slight bruise on Miss Hattie's arm. The carriage was badly demolished. Are we not going to have a base ball club iu Tionesla this summer? Local news promises to bo scarce here this season, and we want at least a half dozen broken mouths oi noses to record every week. Won't some one toss up the ball? We understand a club has been organized at Tylersburg, which is anxious to give this place a "hitch," and it Bhoulu be accommodated. Quarterly meeting will be held at the M. E. Church iu this place com mencing on Saturday afternoon with preaching. Also preaching in the eve ning. Sunday rooming, Love Feast and Communion followed by a sermon, and another on Sunday evening as usual. In these exercises Rev. Stone will be assisted by a minister from Pleasantville, whose name escapes us. Mrs. G. W. Bovard has opened a new millinery store in town, having brought on a large and well selected Btock of latest style spring and sum mer hats aud bonnets. Mrs. B. thor oughly understands the millinery busjness, and the ladies of Tionesta aud vicinity will be well suited ifthey patronize her. She occupies the hall over the store room. We spent a very pleasant hour with Mr. P. C. Boyle, of the Titusville Daily Herald, who dropped in on us yesterday, Mr. B. was around "doing" this section for his paper, and unlike many reporters we fouud him a very agreeable gentleman. He didn't try to impress us that he owned tha Herald oflice, and a big share of Titusvilb. The Forest Republican opposes a rig tax, because it wants the couuty developed for oil territory. It would favor a tax prohibiting any rigs out side that county. Derrick. The ier rick seems to think that no one has a right to an opinion but itself, aud always opposes any one who doesn't think ju?t as it does. Mr. Setley did not sit down and pioe over the loss of his house, but went right to work to replace it. He ha a new oue up in its stead, ready for occupancy, and, we are informed, will move in to-day. Mr. S. does not believe in "crying over spilt milk." 1 " ' -J-J. B. Neale, of tho Kittanning Irds Prcsg, was on last Wednesday appointed President Judge of Arm strong, to fill the vacancy caused by thejdeath of Judge Bogg. The ap pointment is said to give general sat isfaction. -1-One day last week Henry Grubbs, whd runs the engine at Knox's mill, was caught by a belt and thrown against the fly-wheel, which in turn threw him back against some timbers, jamming several of his ribs severely. In consequence he was obliged to "lay of!"' for a time. Spearing has already begun, several parties being out on last Sat urday night. One party, we under stand got some very nice fish, several weighing over four pounds each. Had they extinguished their torch and fuhed by the light of the moon better 8ticcesss might have attended their efforts. An exchange says : "An act to encourage tho planting of trees along the roadside has passed the House of Representatives finally. It allows an abatement of $1 in tho road tax of any farmer or other persons, under the pro vision of the act, for every four trees planted along the road side at such distances as the law prescribes." The cemetery at the upper end of town, with the exception of a few graves is iu a very good condition. If these were put in order it would make a vast improvement, and "the city of the dead" would present such an ap pearance as would be a credit to the town. Let interested parties attend to this matter at once. Mr. Bovard has recently brought on a large and well selected lot, of fishing tackle of all kinds, such as hooks of all sizes with snells, hair and silk lino, trout baskets, etc., which he is selling very reasonable. If you want a good outfit go to George and let him fix you out. He has the goodsJ to do it with, and will do it cheap. During last winter Capt. Clark took out quite a lot of logs on Hunter run and hauled them to Knox's mill, where they are now being sawed into lumber, which we notice the Captain stacking on the common below the Presbyterian Church. What he intends building we have not learned, but presume he thinks it will never come amiss. Selden Whitmau informs us that the parties who had been drilling for oil on his place, and who have been having some litigation of late, have buried the hatchet, and resumed work. They have cleaued out the well, and are drilling. It is down something over 600 feet now. The fact will receive due notice if they strike anything. The large tannery at Glade Run, above Warren was recently de stroyed by fire. The loss is estimated from $50,000 to $75,000. It was the refuse from this tannery which made the water in the river eo dark during the summer, and destroyed the fishing, consequently the fishermen of this sec tion don't lament much over its de mise. John Blair of Elk township, Clar ion county, is missing. On the ninth of April he started down the Clarion river on a small raft to go west, hav ing removed his family some time pre vious to Rimerton. His raft was found lodged some distance below Claiiou, and his cap was discovered just below the raft. This is all that is known of him since he left, and it is supposed that he has met his death by drown ing. He was a man about 43 years of age, and leaves a wife and four child ren. He was a brother of Mrs. Daniel Andrews of this county. "Millions of Banners."

The following communication is pub lished on its merit, the editor neither ap proving nor dissenting. Kn.l IIakmony, May 2, 1879. Ed. Republican : This Township is what may be called a "conquered prov ince," bnt wo are loyal to our fair county, which is now in a fair way to have our taxes low for a number of years, if we can keep away from our Treasury those who would daw from it to build up their own private busi ness. We understand that a Commiss ion has been appointed to examine and report as to the necessity of a bridge across the Clarion river, to be built by Clarion, Jefferson and Forest counties, it's cost to bo paid by said counties in propotion to tho benefits received. We uudcrstand they have made their report favorably. As it now is all of Forest County pays, but what portion does it benefit? Please look over the assessments of Harmony Township for the last six years aud sea what we have paid for bridges ; charge every man, woman and child from Harmouy one dollar every time they have crossed any of them, and it would not amount to a hundreth part of what they have paid. So you see that it is of no benefit to us. We don't object to paying taxes fur any thing that will be a general benefit, bid do not impose iqwn us by taxing us for some special locality. If we must be taxed let the county buy a good farm in some central locality and build a Poor House; and when the tax collector nas Bold us out of house and home we can flod a place of shelter, "where not a wave of trouble rolls across our peaceful breast." Wo have no spite against the Township that wants the bridge, but if it is as good a thing for them as they say, let them pay for it. One of their promineut men said if this county did not take its share, he would. Gentlemen of the Grand Jury, we Bay by all means let him have it, and if ever a Harmony Township man crosses it charge him a dollar.. We have now paid high taxes for several years, and we are nearly out of debt, and in view of the hard times that are now upon us let us have a rest. Taxable. . Dutch Hill Notes. Dutch Hill, May 3, 1879. Ed. Republican: Farmers are full of buslnees on the Hill now, getting iu their crops, all of which, thus far are looking fair. There were two new barns raised in Hickory township this week. Mr. T. L. Pownell raised one 30 x 42 feet, and Mr. J. S. Heuderson raised one of mammoth proportions, it being 40 x 48, Mr. N. S. ForemaD, of Tionesta doing the job. Adam Sibble. also in forms us that he has his barn finished. It would not seem from all these im provements that the times were getting harder. And we would just say right here, that "Tucker" is a little off tho belt when he says that greenbackers are getting thicker than ever in Kings ley township. Having been over tho ground obout as much as any other one, we know whereof we speak, and the.uext election will prove our asser tions correct. The youug man who broko tho wire clothes line with his nose recently had better call around and fix it up before wash-day, if he don't want to hear from headquarters. W. B. Heath has about sixteen acres of oats sown, from which we should judge that he does not intend to let that bay team of his starve next winter. A. Cooper caught a nico string of trout iu Stone-blind run one afternoon this week. No more. Jack. The Princely Managers and their Great Railroad Menagerie and Circus.
