Teachers' Institute meets two weeks from next Monday, 15th. The Court Proclamation, Trial and Jury Lists are published this week. Mr. II. H. Keeler, who has been "On the track" for a few days, "Modoc'd" a nice deer yesterday. The trial of the bribery cases at Harrisburg commenced yesterday, and much excitement prevails in that city. To-morrow's the day everybody eats turkey that is, nearly everybody. Those who haven't the turkey can eat crow. Andrew Saltsgiver is still living, and his physician doesn't seem to know whether there are any hopes for him or not. Miss Mary Kiscr and Mis9 Anna Ginther, who have been otteading school at Edinboro, returned home last week. Mr. J. D. Hu lings left for Vir ginia yesterday, to look after the interests of Marcus Hulings, the oil prince. We have frequently warned the turkeys of their imminent danger, and now they will have to look out for themselves. The coasting on Monday eveuing was good, and the suggestive cry for "track ! track !" was heard until late in the night. Teachers throughout the county are requested to send in their monthly reports for publication. Make them as short as posiible. As near as, we can learn there will be do Thanksgiving services in any of our churches to-morrow. This is certainly not as it should be. Turkeys aieeaid to be selling for 80 cents a pair in Drookville, hue it's too late. Thanksgiving is too near at hand to send away off there for them. Will Wolcott has been appointed collector of tho School Tax of this borough, and is around politely re questing delinquents to "square up." Tioneeta has lost another of it's favorite young men, Mr. W. A. Ililands, who departed for tho Brad ford district yesterday. Success, Davy. The shooting mutch on Saturday didn't amount to much, 60 far ns fhootiog was concerned. No turkeys were shot for, but quite a number were ra filed off. We understand the telegraph lino from Foxburg to Kane, passing through the eastern portion of this cour.ty, has been completed, and the proposed pipe line will be put through forth wit 5. F. M. Butler Esq., of Hudson, N. Y., Attorney for the Hammond Heirs, who have a large trart of land in Tionesta township, has been here for a week past looking after their interests. Miss Alwilda Adams departed for Bradford on Mouday morning to see her brother; Harlem, whom we reported last week as having the Bradford fever. A dispatch Monday evening conveyed the news that he is slightly better. Elsewhere in this issue will be found the double-column "ad" of G. W. Milford, Oil City. Whatever this establishment advertises to do can be depended upon. When iu Oil City, call at Mr. Milford's and get bargains that will astonish you. Mrs. Chas. Albaugh, who has for several weeks been lying in a critical state with typhoid fever, was moved to the red house on Vine St., lately occupied by Chas. Resner. That beiug u much more comfortable place, her recovery will doubtless be more rapid. Mr. Shawkej, our Prothonotary, is taking in some of the western country at present. He has been somewhat indisposed for some time, and expects to recuperate in that sec tion. His stay will be quite an exten ded one. The board of pardons having refused to commute Tracy's sentence to imprisonment for life, he will hang at Smethport, McKean Co , on the 4th of December. A great effort has been made in his behalf, by the ablest coun sel in the State. The hunters say that until there is more snow there will be no use trying to kill a deer ; the woods being so tracked up that it is impossible to follow uDy one of them any distance. It seems from this that there is a "boom" in the deer business, don't it? We understand that a marriage in high life is on the tapis in this place and that tho event will "come ofl" some lime next week. The high contracting parties are said to be A. M. Doutt and Chas. Kaisig, the ceremony to be per formed by Carr, the butcher, A suite of rooms has been arranged over BlunVs blacksmith shop, in which the happy pair are to be made one and inseperable. ! -Mr. Frank Newell, who has been connected with the Central House in this place since last July, departed yesterday. He expects to embark in the mining business at Silver Cliff, Col., with a Mr. Bittenbender, who has been in that section for a little over a year, during which time he has amassed quite a fortune. Frank is a gentleman and a scholar, and while we deprecate his departure, we hope to hear of him soon as a millionaire. We are pleased to hear that Mr. Kepler, of Butler County, has suc ceeded ia getting lands in this county, which he, as well as other practical oil men consider on the "belt," in quantities Jargo enough to justify him in going on with developements. Mr. K. has proved to our citizens that he means business, and is therefore entitled to what might seem a prefer ence. Iflft.nd owners want their prop erty developed they need not be afraid to lease to this company. They will do just what they say. From Mr. Dunn's paper, the Crookston (Minn.,) Cronicle, we clip the following: "While our neighbors one, two, three and fourhuudred miles south of us are having skating, sleighing, and winter generally, our farmers have their teams out, plowing the prairie soil up, preparatory to a grand wheat crop next year. If it is too cold fur our southern friends to stand it, we would advise a general emigration in this direction, where "every prospect pleases, and only" a few men in our whole city could be called "vile." "Coon" Burhen, of Dutch Hill, did an excellent stroke of business among the deer last week. On Friday he, aud a brother killed a very fine buck. On Saturday they were out again, starting about three o'clock. They traveled but a short distance when they came upon three deer lying down. Coon saya they were standing about 175 yards off when one of the deer raised his head, affording him a long but open shot ; when the gun weut off the other two jumped up, and he immediately gave one of them the other barrel, dropping it instantly. The third made a circle, and came around about the time he had re loaded his gun, and he " banged away and down it come." AH this was done without moving out of his tracks. When he came to gather up his game, he found he had broken two of the deer's necks, and shot the third through the lights. This we consider about the best day's hunting that has been accomplished iu this county for several years. If any one beats it we'd like to hear from him. TaIinu tiie Census. The State is entitled to ten Supervisors, and hence, it will be devided into ten districts. The nineth district will be curaposedof the following counties : Indiana, Arm strong, Butler, Venango, Clarion, For est, Elk, McKean, Centre, Clearfield. Tenth District. Warren, Erie, Craw ford, Mercer, Lawrence, Beaver, Wash ington, Greene. The Supervisors are appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. The Supervisor selects enu merators. Thirty days is the longest time allowed any enumerator to do the work assigned ; hence the sub-districts in each county must be very small. The work will commence next Juno and be completed the same mouth. Coburn is out once raoro with his "Weekly Dun Letter; or, Quack Medicine Advertiser," trying to abuse those who, no matter how far they could descend the scale of human depravity, would stHl tower so far above him as does the mighty oak above the timothy stock ; and upon whom his abuse has about as much effect as the stench from a skunk upon tho sweet perfumes of the lloeo of Sharon at a thousand miles' distance; which comparison we consider a very fitting one in this instance. It illy becomes a "thing" of Coburn's stripe to abuse auybody ; a man who pre tends to advocate grand and glorious ptiuciples ; who crys out against the "Shylotks that are sucking the life blood out of the government," or big sound words to that effect, and in the same issue folds up a "cough medicine" circulai, iu direct violation of the postal law, thus stealing the postage which rightly belongs to tho govern ment, besides trying to humbug the people. He would be a fino specimen to send to the legislature, indeed. He is a beautiful specimen to advocate reform, and sit at home and violute the laws of the land at every opportu nity. He's the chap that charges a dollar for looking down a lady's throat while out making a friendly call of an afternoon ; he is the flippant bombast who charges tho small sum of two dollars for "tying a string around a wart," which justly entitles hirai to the name, and he shall ever be knowu as "the celebrated Wart-hog of Craw ford county." Nojnsult to the fair name of Crawford. From a ni'.hcr humorous corres pondence from Strattanville, Clarion county, to the New Bethlehem Vindi cator, we get the following regarding one of our former townsmen : "Frank Reck he dink he vil half a big dime. He mate a shoodin' match wid sum durkeys. He dots he vnuld pud dem up an' den vin dem all pack himself; bud de didn't do it, for he did nod got von; healvaysehod to low.

Tom Shouson ho got von, und some under fellers got von bird. Frank Reck dond got von. It vos a goot time. Effery potty feel goot; espesly de vons vot got durkeys." The Nursery for December is at hand, much improved in appearance, if such could be. The Nursery is not only printed and embelUhed with nice engravings, but its stories, verses and music are of n kind to please boys and girls who are too small to read the books and magazines designed for older children. The present number completes the thirteenth year, and all who wish a truly good childs maga zine, at the nominal sura $1.50 a year, should subscribe now, and commence with the new volume. John L.

Sunday School at this place will close next Sun Jay. This has been a very flourishing school, and bids fait to open in the spring with a better at tendance than ever. Mr. R. Z. Gillespie has commenced his school at Dutch Hill. The Dutch Ilillajs show their appreciation of a good teacher wbenthey can get one. Rob. is teaclking his "third term" at that place. The church at this place is rapidly approaching completion, and when finished will be a very fine little chufth. Mr. Warren Barnes went out hunt ing last Thursday, and it being very cold, the old gentleman became very cold, aud when he came to Mr. Adam Emert's, in Hickory Twp., he was so nearly finished that he was unable to sit on a chair, and fell to the floor. Mr. Emert informed me that he thought the days of Mr. Barnes were over when he was so nearly gone as stated. Mr. Barnes is a very old man and quite feeble, and ought not to be left to go hunting without some one keeping near him. A friend of mine writes to roe from Norristown, Pa. He says: "I'm ashamed to think that it has fallen to the lot of Pennsylvania to give the Greenbackers the only county they can boast of in the United States." Yea, verily, says every honest man. Panitatus. Star Post-Office. It has been some time since this place has had a hearing in your col umns; nevertheless we are all alive yet aud able to talk to our greenback friends when they get boistrous. - Mr. Conrad Zueudel of Erie Co., is still around among his old frieuds, and is making many new ones. t Out school is now in progress, and is more largely attended than it has been for some time. Henry Ahlers has built a substan tial stone bridge across the small stream which runs through his place. Some of our lumbermen must have taken too much of "somebody's best," as they have not returned at this writing. L. L. D. FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT. Our people are eujojiug good health ; and while some nre making improve ments on their farms, others are chasing the deer. Mr. Jake Bush killed a fine largo deer on Wednesday last, which makes him feel first class. As he has been seven years a hunter iu the wilds of Forest, aud this being his first deer, we all congratulate him. Several of our young folks went to Church Hill to attend a party at Mr. Cooper's, and all appear well satisfied with the hospitality they received. John Heath Esq., the popular book agent, is distributing the books he has sold. We bespeak him success through out the county. Mr. Henry Zuendel jr., is making preparations for building a new barn. Mr. Peter Lovell has been improv ing his residence considerably. Mr. Win. Heath returned from Pittsburgh an Saturday last. Hawkeye. Life and Travels of General Grant. The present volume presents a com plete aud vivid picture, with pen aud pencil of this journey; an accurate record of the many important aud sug gestive addresses made by rulers, dis tinguished statesman and embassadors, and the responses made to tho same ; pen portraits of emperors, kingj aud princes; brilliant descriptions of their palaces, with their costly adornments aud Oriental splendors; a detailed account of the magnificent receptions given, with their courtly forms and imposing ceremonies; a description of all the lands and peoples visited, tho wonderful sights beheld, and every incident, by land and sea, of this fa mous "Tour Around the World." But another result of this journey has been to bring iuto review the cutiro career of this remarkable character, this man of cool head and iron nerve, w ho through all the pomp aud pageantre of these royal surrouudings, and in the midst of a!l these muguiticent hon ors, has remained simply and sturdily BANNER tr-Always tho Best.

Time has sifted tho facta, and tho hour has come when thero is a demand for a Hintory of the Military and Civil career of Geueral Grant which fhnll be nt once critical and historically correct. Such a his tory is incorporated in this volume; especial prominence being given to his military campaigns and the chief battles of tho war, which nre hero re counted with an acruracy which earlier historians could not attain, and in the vigorous and brilliant style for which the author 'is distinguished.; A history of the events of his succesful administration is also given. As ah illustrated book of travels it is be lieved that it will be found to be more deeply interesting and instructive than any similar volume that has ever been published ; botli from the fuct that no' American was ever before so welcomed to royal court3, or tho choicest views of tho aii3ieut world, and also from the fact that few men living wield so graphic a pen to set forth these things to the mind's eye a3 our Author, Hon. J. T. Ileadley, formerly Secretary of the great .Stata of New York. His superior descriptive abilities as an author, and his personal acquaintance with the Old World, are guarantees of an intensely interesting book. It contains over 200 illustrations. In order that readers may enjoy as near as possible the pleasure of seeing what General Grant saw and our MUthor describes; of Palaces, Parks, Royal Treasures, Aucient Cities, Curiosities, Ruins, costumes, itc, &c., great pains have been taken aud a very Jarge expense iucurred to make this work specially attractive and instructive in this respect. It is unqestionably the most richly illustrated volume that has been offeted at any such price for years past. John Heath of Star P. O., Forest Co., Pa., has the agency of this section.
