The Dutch Hill road is being put in sxcellen', condilion. Mr. J. C. Cornwell and lady, of Stoncb'oro, spent a few days .in town last week. An educational communication from Urookston, is crowded out thi3 week, but will appear in our next. Ferd. Wenk raised his now barn, 50 x CO, 'on Dutch Hill last Friday. No accidents occurreJ, and every thing went ofl'ewiinmingly. Mrs. Sharp liaS returned home 'after quite an extended absence. We believe she has fully recovered from her late severe attack of diphtheria. -Beverly, the blacksmith, wishes to inform tho public that he has made a great reduction in tho price of horse shoeing. See prices in his advertise ment. A little girl of . Johu Hood's, aged about two years died yesterday morn ing. We did not learn what tho disease was. The child will be buried here to-day. Tho Bill allowing Titusvillc to hold courts, instead of going to Mead- ville, passed the Legislature at tho last moment. The litusvtlhans are very happy over the rebult. Most of the loldiers in this section Have already received the arrears of pensions due them for injuries sus taioed in the late war, all of which they duly appreciate. Tho crowded state of our columns has made it necessary for us to "boil down some of our communications this week, at which we hope tho writers will not feel offended. By reference to tho proper place it will be socn that Mr. J. Cook, of Barnett towuship is announced as candidate for County Surveyor subject to Republican usages. It took iust about 24 minutes to raise by subscription enough to put new walk in fiont of the Presbyterian Church. Messrs. N. S. Foreman aud A. O. Donovan do tbe work for nothing. Mr. Jackson, Street Commissioner, ha9 commenced work on the roads, and it is hoped that tho citizens will step up promptly and work out their taxes, or send on rood men to do it for them. Trolling for bass is now the favor ite evening pass-time, on the beautiful sheet of water between Swing island and Dust'n riffle. In company with v alt. Adams wo Hauled in tour nice ones last evening iti about an hour. -The legislature adjourned sine die last Friday noon. Representative heeler has returned home, but we lave not met him or had any talk with him yet, but presume he is glad to ge through. He returns with a clear con science and clean record. Hope he will call upon us when in town. Mr. and JNlrs. n. ll. JUay an Mrs. Dr. Blaine, left for Cincinnati this morning, to be present at the great Saengcrfest, which commences to day They will without doubt be amply repaid for the trip, and we hope thoy may have a pleasant time. Having sawed up all the logs in the boom the May & Kelly mill has shutdown. inoxsraill mushed up yeterday, we believe. Wlint a pity these wills could uot bo kept in stock duriog the entire summer, as they furnish work, indirectly, for thirty or fortv men. Wt notice by a Greenville, Pa., correspondence in the Pittsburgh Leader, that Prof. 'Dolph Weber and Misa Sadie E. Cook were joined in matrimony, on the Gist., alt. Dolph's friends in this section will be agreeably surprised to hear of this important event, and will wish him and his much happinesj. Will. Clark, of Tidioute, came down on a little insurance business last Thursday, and missing tho train, was obliged to stay all night, but he made enough out of a little transaction to fully cover all extra expenses aud have a little left. He paid Charlie Congdon two dollars for an Americau dollar dated 1798, for which he expects to get two hundred dollars from a party in New York, who has been advertis ing for a piece of this particular date. Of course Charlie didn't rue the bar gain, nor nothiu after ho learned the reel value of the piece. The Camp Meeting. The committee appointed to locate the grounds for tho Free Methodist Camp Meeting was here on Thursday nst looking over tho field. Tho gen tlemen composing the committee were Messrs. Lewis Keister, D. B. Tobey and Rev. J. Barnhart. It was at first roposcd to hold the meeting in the srrove back of the Court House, but the ground there was found to be too steep, nnd they selected a spot back of Mr. Scott's residence, better known as the Wm. Dimond house above Raco street. Ibis will ma.ke a very pleasant place, it being a large grove, and well shaded. Rev. Jeremiah Barnhatt has made arrangements whereby he can furnish the Rochester tents at a cost of but three or four dollars during the meeting. Theso tents can be had either 14 x 15 or 12 x 17, nnd those wishing them must send their orders to Rev. Barnhart at East Hickory, Pa., before the 25th of June. Tbe Freo Methodist brcthern extend a cordial invitation to all who wish to tent with them, and assist them in their efforts to do good and make the meeting a success. -A serious collisiou occurred on the D. A. V. & P. R. R. four miles above Warren, Monday afternoon about 4 o'clock. Passenger train No. 4 going north collided with a Buffalo & Southwestern freight on a sharp curve at the above place. Both trains were under full headway when they came together. The engines reared on end and fell over on their sides, and they, together with tho baggage and smoking car and eight or ten empty freight cars are total wrecks. The fire man, Crean Coston, on the passenger, in attempting to jump lrorn the engine was instantly killed, while en gineer Skidmoro attenfping tho same thing was seriously if not fatally injured. The express messeogei, A. J. Julein, and newsboy C. Vanhorn, were badly injured. Among the injured passengers were Chas. St. Jolm of Ti tusville, and Mr. Herrick of Ackleys, Pa. Oilier passengers, some eight or ten in number were also injured but will ptobably all survive No one on the freight was hurt, the engineer and fireman having been warned in time to jump from the engine. This is the first accident of a serious nature that has occurred on this road since it has been running, and no doubt the cause of the accident will be thoroughly in vestigated. We wish to return thanks to tbe managers of the Buffalo Chautauqua Lake and Pittsburgh R'y Co., of which Mr. J. L. Butman is the Superintend ent, for an invitation to the formal opening of their road, which event was celebrated last Saturday by a grand excursion over the road nnd a trip on Chautauqua Lake. We should liked to have taken it in had we been able to spare the time. This road, which was formerly the Cross-Cut, has been thoroughly overhauled and repaired, and is now in a most excellent condi tion. We wish to mention in this connection that Mr.- W. S. Baldwin, formerly Superintendent for the Wood's Heirs, has been appointed General Passenger Agent fur this road, with office at Buffalo, N. Y., a fact which his many friends in this place will be glad to learn. The Titusvillc Herald, in speaking of the excursion, pays Mr. B. this handsome cotnpli mens: "Y. S. Baldwin, Esq., tho courteous General Passenger Agsnt of Buffalo, N. Y., was the President of the day, and well he showed his great executive ability in the management of all the details. Everything went offsmoothly as clock-work." One day last week while Mr. Kelly was visiting his Oldtown farm, his team which was hitched to a fence became frightened at some object, and quite a runaway took place. The horses tore loose from the fence and started down the creek at full speed, up-setting the hack and demolishing it and tho harness somo what; they finally freed themselves from the vehi cle and ran a distance about two miles, being stopped when within a mile or so from town.. Duriug the excitement two other teams at work on tho farm took fright and started but were soon stopped. In his efforts to catch one of the teams John Wyant stubbed his toe and fell, striking on his arm and spraining his wrist badly. We believe none of the horses were injured. Wanted, by Robinson & Bonner 20,000 pounds wool, for which tho highest market prico will bo paid. Goods sold at the lowest possiblo cash price. D-lt. A letter written on a postal card camo into our possession tho other day, which is a curiosity. The writer starts out as any good wife ought, to, but before she winds up her blood seems to curdle at the thought of his fickle ness, and "lams" hira in the following manner. We suppress Uio names: Dear husband I thought that I would Write you a few lines to let you know that I cant forget you if you can mc. Well I had a letter from your place nnd they told me that you was going to get married to I suppose you think that if you can get in the family you will be up in tho World I wish t;j God it had ben in that family in the first place instid of in tho family it Would have ben a Gods blessing to me if it had ben I dont care so much for myself as I do for tho and dead husban J who was a man and not a thing but I jest dare you to get married and dont you forget it The Howe murder, near Pioneer, of wh:ch" we made mention last week, still remains a mystery, and their has been a great deal of speculation as to who perpetrated the dartardly crime. Some of the facts growing out of the investigation seem to point suspic iously toward some of the domestics and members of the murdered man's own family. Nothing definite, how ever, has vet been learned, and the authorities are earnestly engaged in ferreting out the guilty parties. Mr. Robert Hays, of Stewarts Run, Pa., died on Thursday last, and was buried on Saturday. His disease was consumption, with which he lintrered at the point of death for several months: his sufferings are said to have been very great. He was about 28 years of age, and he leaves a larce circle of friends to mourn his death. Hon. Jas. B. Neale, oftheKitlan ning Free Press, has received the Re publican nomination for President Judge of Armstrong County. We congratulate Mr. Neale upon this evi denco ot his popularity, and theappre ciationofhis sterling worth a legal abilities by the Republican voters of Armstrong, and bespeak for him i rousing majority iu November. Pete Berry, We-b Clark, Ben Caldwell, Davy Ililands. and a Mr. Griffin of Fagundas, returned on Mon day iroin a trouting expedition up in Jenks township. They didn't catch many trout, but say there was no end to tho fun they had. They ran short of provisions, etc., principally etcajt eras else they would have stayed i day or two longer. The frost on Friday night last, wo understand, was net as severe as at first supposed. Potatoes through the country were quite severely nipped but the fruit and other crops susta-ined comparatively little if any damage, Ulder inhabitants tell us that it was iust 21 vears ago last xriday night that the memorable frost occurred ki this section. Mr. Fred. C. Lacy, of Galenza Mills, Forest County, aud Miss Lillian Kline, of Philadelphia. Wero married in the latter f lace on May 29th, 1879 Mr. Lacy aud his accomplished lady will receive tho congratulations and best wishes of their mauy friends upon this happy event. May they ever be prosperous and abundantly happy. Some petty thieving has been going on at Judge Proper's farm on tho Hill. A couple of coats, a vest and other articles, which were left hanging on the porch of the house by some of the laborers, wero recently taken. A careful watch is now being kept, and if caught the thieves wil receive their just deserts. Col. L. F. Watson of Warren L. R. Freeman Esq., of Franklin, and our townsman E. L. Davis Esq., left for the headwaters of Salmon, Monday evening, for a few day'd fish. Davy Ililands went along to guido tho party and keep it in the straight and narrow path.

Tho preliminary survey of the projected extension of the E. S. it C. and F. St. P. &C. railroads from Ship- penville to Bradford, was completed ast week. Tho new road will be known as the ! oxburg, Kane ot radford Railroad. Tho distance from Shipponvillo is about sixty miles. The engineers have found a route of easy grade, and one that can bo built cheaply. Chief Engineer, B. E. Cut er, is now in Foxburg preparing tho report of the same. The Directors will meet this week, when they will bo likely to conclude on gome definite action. We have good reason to believo that the road will be built without delay. Clarion Republican, Mr. II.

As I promised, I. will now in fulfill ment of the same, give you an account of the ."fishing excursion" from this place lust week. Un Monday morning tho parly con sisting of Messrs. Frank, Ed. aud Will. Gillespie, with Fred. Grove, started for the brrnch of Salmon creek, taking provisions with them to last a week. On Wednesday the party was joined by Hons. "Cameron" and "Wallace" with Mr. R. Z. Gillespie and your cor respondent. We found the boys all alive and camping at Gillespie shanty, in Howe Twp., about one mile from Thos. Porter's residence, in a branch of Blue Jay run. Frank aud Ed. Gillvspie on that day (Wednesday') caught 205 trout in Blue Jay, with ihe number caught the two days previous making in all 550 caught by them. Somewhere in Blue Jay thoy heard several wolves snarling in the bushes near the run, but having no firearms did not try to drive them away or rout them. On Thursday tho party was further swelled by the arrival of Mr. C. F. Gillespie and Rev. J. Weikal, who remained until Saturday morning, and then 'started for home. On Friday morning the party started to "fish down" tho branch of Salmon to the mouth of Salmon creek, catching about G25 trout, quitting about five o'clock, aud then makiug preperatwns for the night in the woods. On Saturday we finished up aod upon counting "our fish" we found that we had lifted but a few more than 1,500 of the "denizens of the brook," making in all, when dressed, between forty-five and forty-eight pounds. Rev. Weikal took his "spoils" with him to his home, near Greenville, Mercer Co., Pa. Frank and Ed. came ofl'the champions of the excursion. T.iking it all in and it wa3 the pleas autest excursion that your humble servant ever participated in, and was highly enjoyed by all of tho party. Lovers of the beauty iu nature ought to, by all means, visit tho extensive forests in Ho n o Tw'p, which are the most strikingly beautiful that I have ever saw. Tho tall, beautiful bcoch trees, with birch and cherry, with their fresh green foliage contrasting with the dark verdure of the hemlock, has a truly sublime and inspiring effect which words cannot describe an ! must be seen to be comprehended and en joyed. Mr. Thos. Porter, who lives in tho section, is compelled to travel a dis tance of nineteen miles to the polls or for any township business, lie told us that the township of Howe was about twenty four miles long, eight miles wide, and contains but four tracts of seated lands.
