-The Erie Annual Conference of

appointments that Rev. J. F. Hill,
f'ohneily of Enterprise, has been as
signed to this charge. Our late minis
ter, Rev. Stone, has been sent to Mon

spoken of as u minister of excellent
abilities.
-Tho Bloomheld Cornet Band,
which furnished the music for the
political meetings of this week, is com
posed of as gentlemanly a set of men
as could be found anywhere. They
gave excellent satisfaction to tha citi

or 6lingv about their music, and,
having left a good impression upon
our people they staud a goad chance
of being employed whenever anything
of the kind takes place here iu the
future. '
The meeting at the Lawrence
House on Saturday evening "last for
the purpose of completing the organ
ization of a Gaifield aud Arthur Club
was postponed until next Saturday, on
aecouot of some of 'the prominent
members of the party being unable to
be present. Quite a number of new
members were added to the list, who
signified their desire to be here at the
organization. It is hoped all ' the
members and as many others as wish
will be out promptly on Saturday
evening when a permanent organiza
tion will be effected.
Hon. Wm. P. Brown, our candi
date for President Judge, was iu town
this week. Mr. Brown makes friends
wherever he goes, and is gainiag votes
every day. He will come out of
Warren county with a very large
majority, notwithstanding his compet
itor, Judge R. Brown, has received
the endorsement of the Greenback
parly. The sale will not hold good
up there. We have too high an
opinion of the good sense and honor
of the Greenbackers of Forest county
to believe that they will allow them
selves to be bartered away in this
kind of style, and predict for Mr
Brown a handsome majority at the
election.

that the ''mouey and brains" of tho
Democracy occupied the same plaeo in
tno procession (?) that tho brains do
iu tha corporeal anatomy of their
owner. It is presumed that they ha
a good time. Tho only "grounds" for
this supposition are, that the c. c. iu.
(Capt. coi'eo-pot marines) vas hear
soliloquizing on his way homewan
about four o'clock next morning how
ho and Hancock would come out. W
can answer th 13 connundrum for him
by remarking, that the position taken
by him last Friday, will be stubbornly
held by both himself and Hancock on
tho 2d of November, and he w ill find
himself on thai day, asothers have
always found him, "more pebinc as
before."

Tho following item was crowded
out cf our last issue : Rev. J. Baruhart
bid farewell to his congregation on
Sunday evening last. The church was
well filled with eager listners who had
coma to hear the reverend gentleman
once more heforo his departure. Dur
ing Rev. Barnhart'8 ministry in this
place he has made many warm and
life-long friends. When ho camo here,
n littla over a year ago, the society
w.i4 very small, and had no church
wherein to hold meetings. Now the
membership numbers upwards of
thirty ; thoy have a handsome church
edifice, clear of debt, and tho church
ic in a most flourishing condition. This
condition of affairs is largely duo to
lis untiriug energies. May success
and happiness attend his future efforts.
Iu tho Stoncham oil field three
wills were torpedoed on Saturday last,
but they had not been tubed yet. They
ore known us the Mugeo well, between
Clarendon and Tiona ; the Smith
irothers at Clarendon, and the
Struthers well at Stoneham. Consid
erable interest is felt iu the Ma";ee
well, as it will probably indicate the
direction in which tho belt runs.
Should it prove a good strike it will
show the course to bo directly south
ward ; but should it prove a failure it
is thought future developements will
bo southwest, and in a more direct
ine through Forest county. The
Smith Bros., well has a good show.
Tho Struthers well shows up fairly.
Jonathan Watson has a pumping well
in second sand, north of Stoncham.
That Match Hunt.
Last. Saturday was a gala day for
our sportsmen, auj they all enjoyed it
thoroughly. All hands were up and
in tho woods before daylight in the
morning, and tha cannonading com-
meuceu as soon as it was light enough
to sea along a trun-barrel, and was
kept up until late in the evening. Tho
sides were chosen, or rather paired off
by Will Smearbaugh and Dr. Coburn,
it having beeu agreed to make them
as nearly eveu us possible and then
"flip a copper" for the choice. It was
supposed that the sides were quite
evenly matched beforo they started
out, but tho result shows it to have
been considerably one-sided. This
was piobably not so much on account
of the superior skill of the victors as
their luck in getting where game was
the plentiest. Notwithstanding the
severe defeat of the one side good
feeling prevailed among all, and the
defeat was gracefully accepted.
According to arrangements all were
at Lawrence House by eight o'clock,
aud as soon as the count was comple
ted thero was a rush for supper, which
was devoured with a relish by tho
hungry Nimrods.
The list of the game and count was
as follows : Wildcat 25, fox 20, coon
10, groundhog 10, hawk 10, owl 10,
woodcock 10, porcupine 5, crow 7,
kiugfisher 5, pigeon 5, gray squirrel 7,

The hunt was a complete success,
A3 is usual on such occasions the

that they can do better next time.

The game brought in was princi

REPUBLICAN GRAND RALLY.
Monday Night's Meeting By all
odds tho Largest, Grandest and
Most Enthusiastic Political
Demonstration ever Wit
nessed in Forest
County.
The crowded stale of our streets.
Monday, evidently meant something
more than mere attendance at court
and the sequel fully proved this. It
bad been previously auuounced that
the Republicans of this district would
assemble and discuss tho important
issues of tho day and such an influx of
people from all directions this county
never before witnessed. Early in tho
day the headquarters at the Lawrence
House began to be thronged and long
before the appointed hour a largo con
courso of voters hid assembled. About
half-past seven o'clock tho procession
wa marshalled and marched to the
bridge, where the Pleas ntvillo dele
gation, some sixty strong, all neatly
uniformed, were met. Placing the
Bloomfreld brass band at their head a
parade was made through tho princi
pal streets until tho arrival of the
eveuicg train, bearing one of the
speakers of the evening. He was
immediately taken iu chargo aud
escorted to the court house. Here
every availablo spaco was quickly
filled, standing room being at a pre
mium. Quiet being restored the
mooting was called to order by the
chairman of the county committee, Mr.
Q. Jamieson, who nominated Pr. S. S.
Towler, of Msrienvillo, as president of
the evening. This was unanimously
carried and, upon tho gentleman
taking his seat, tho following list of
officers was read :
Vice Presidents Barnett township,
Hon. Wm. R. Coon ; Jeuks, James A.
Scott ; Howe, J. B. White ; Green, L.
Arner ; Harmony, John Thompson ;
Kingsley, F. C. Gillespie; Hickory,
Henry Church ; Tionesta, G. Jamie
son : Tionesta Boro, Jacob Wenk.
Secretaries, A. M. Poutt, J. E.
Wenk.
The firs t speaker of tho eveuing,
Hon. H. II. McCormick, of Pittsburg
lata United States District Attorney,
was then introduced and for an hour
aud a half held the undivided atten
tion of the audience. Commencing at
tha earliest forms of government he
rapidly sketched tho rise and fall of
mouarchial systems and compared
theiu t tho better stability of one "by
the people," pointing out tha errors
which had led to their downfall. Fol
lowing this he showed the standing of
country under the different adminis
trations and proved that our present
prosperous condition is dud to the fi
delity shown the public intrests by
those now in power
After an inspiring straiu by the
band the second orator, Hon. C. B.
Curtis of Erie, ex-member of Congress,
took the rostrum and in a clear and
concise manner discussed the present
monetary system, showing its great
superiority abovo all others. Touch
ing the ''Solid South" iu his peculiarly
droll manner he propounded souio very
difficult questions for his opponents
on tho mysterious disappearance o
Republican votes in Loui&iaua aud
Alabama, without a correspoudiu
increase for Democracy.
Last on the list was Joseph Buf-
fingtou, Esq., of Kittanuing, the
yonngcat persou speaking, but as it
proved on a of tho most eloquent
Tuking tho subject of the loss of rev
euuc collections during the time of
Van Buren. which amouuted to
811.71 on the thousand, ho showed the
rapid decrease until now it loots up
but one third of a cent on a similar
amount. Producinrr a" copy of tho
celebrated Greenback pledge, (whic!:
wo publish in an other column) 6ub
scribed to bv Mr. MoS'TOVO ho
arraigned that gentleman for darin
to uudertako tho support cf two
tickets, so iFiliko in meaning. Ho put
this in such a manner as to convince
any reasonable man that no one being
could pull in two opposite directions
at the same time, which Mr. M. would
certainly be obliged to do wero ho to
live up to tho principles of the two
parties.
After a round of tremendious
applauso for tho Republican nominees
and a reu hot anecdote by the chair
tha assembled multitude and particu
larlv tho unusual lar;o number of
ladies present, were complimented for
their close attention to tho grand ol
doctrines which havo niado the stars
aud stripes universally respected ant:
enabled fifty millions of people to
exist in the midst of plenty. And so
closed the largest demonstration which
this section has ever seen.
Gen. White was much missed by
tho audisncc. He was on his way
here, but missed connections and did
not afriva 'until Tuesday morning.
He addressed an enthusiastic meeting
at East Hickory last evening. Tha
Genernl will remain in the county a
few days, and it is probable the most
of the citizens will have nn oppo rtu
nity of hearing him speak.

DIED.
At tho house of It. O. Cnrson, in Neill
town, Thursday niht, Sept., 23, 18S0,
John Scott, in tho 35th year of his age.
The deceased wes born in Ireland
from whenco ha camo to this country
about 11 years ago, he had no rela
tives living in America ; his mother,
a sister, and two brothers live near
tha city of Belfast, Ireland. Ho had
lived with Mr. R. O. Carson, at whose
house bis death occurred, for tho last
12 years, during which time ho had
by his faithful attendance to, and per
formance of his duties us au employer,
his good habits, and quiet and gentle
manly ways, gained the respect and
esteem, not only of Mr. Carson's fami
ly, to whom his death was like tho
calling away of ono of their own, but
also of all who knew him. Being
industrious and economical ho had
accumul.tted quite a sum of money
which, as ho has no friends iu thia
country, will bo sent to his aged
mother in Ireland. His disease was
couaiimption, it is probable tho seeds
of this disease ffere sown about two
years ago, nt which time he had a
severe sick spell resultirg from a bad
cold ; he rallied from this attack aud
regaiue.l almost his former vigor. A
little more than a year ago ho began
to suffer from the approach of tho
disease that finally took his life, and
for a year previous to his death had
done no work of auy account ; ho
kept moving about, however, and
ou the Saturday previous to his death
rodo over to Pleasautvillo with Mr.
Carson ; on his return he was unable
to get out of tho buggy without assist
unco. On Sunday ho was very ill ;
Dr. Wilsou was called but spito of
medical assistance and the beet ofcare
he grow rapidly worse, aud on Thurs
day night died. His funeral took place
Saturday forenoon Sept. 25, Rev.
White of Plensantville conducting the
services, and his remains were laid to
rest iu the cemetery at Neilltown.
