Evidently her new home, in .Minnesota, agrees with her, as she is looking well, and is reccivini' a hearty welcome by her mauy friends here. Hon. E. L. Davis returned to his pokt at Harrioburg on Monday After a week's anxious care spent with his sick family. His family has been severely lllicted for some time back with diphtheria, but wo are glad to learn that all the sick ones ar.i on the mend now. although the littlt bova are yet very fcxUe. We get tho following piece of news from tho telegraphic columns ef tbo Pittsburgh Commercial-Gazette. IT ho property referred to doubtless bolongs to tho Messrs. Bond, formerly of this county : "Bond's mill and lum ber yard at Fife Lake, JieJiigan, was burned on Sunday. Loss $70,000." Mr. Chadwick is building a tem porary dwelling for Mr. A. J. Landers, near the Dithridge mill, across the reek. It is the intention to build several houses there the coming sum mer. Pat Joyce is also at work build ing the foundation for Mr. Dithridge's new house ou the point of the hill above the mill. The E'k Democrat wishes it dis tinctly understood that Ridgway has school building both large euough and good enough to answer all pur poses for years to come," and that they are not agitating (be erection of a new one. All right, neighbor. Glad to hear yon are so well provided. But you aeedn't get so confounded sassy about it. Mr. John Hunter, accompanied by Mr. Range, of Millvillage, Erie Co., arrived in town on Monday. He is looking very well, and we ura glad to know lias almost fully recovered from the very aevare scalding received in the Railroad accident in February ast. His hands, which still trnub' . is xim soma, are healiug last, and !iand physician thinks he will in no ng. le one ljnred 03e the use of them.

Some of our walks are iu a deplorable condi tion. A few days ago we were shown a "seeder" by 'Squire Brennan, which is a model of convenience and beauty. We cannot describe it, but would ad vise any of our fanners who are at all interested to call on Mr. B. and see it. It is arranged to sow all kinds of grain, plant corn, and distribute fer tilizer, &o., and works like a charm. Mr. A. B. Kelly has purchased one for his Oldtowu farm through tho agency of Mr. Brencau. The surveyors of the Tionesta Valley, who started from her a week ago yesterday, have got about three miles above Nebraska, having made good time thus far. Whittekiu's corps, on the other end of the line were down to Newtown Monday ; they will prob ably meet about Bear Creek, and thus complex the preliminary survey. Whether or not the Road will be built will probably determinated in the course of a mouth. While many think it will not be, others who have means of kuowing whereof they bpeak say there is little doubt but that it will go through. We live in hepes. Mrs. Wittenmyer, of Philadelphia, delivered a decidedly able temperance lecture to a very large and attentive audience at the M. E. Church ou Fri day eveuing last. This lady is thor oughly posted on statistics relative to the liquor traffic, aud uulike most tem perance lectures abuses no oue iu her discourses. She lectured in Tidioute on Thursday evening, aud wo fully agree with the iVeu'd of that place, which has the following regardiug her : "Mis. Wittenmyer lectured ou tem perance last evening, iu the M. E. Church. As President of the Woman's Christiau Temperance Union, her utterances are freighted with authori ty, and tho poiut we particularly wish to commend is hei decided stund taken ou the question, of educating the young. While there may be qestious concern ing the advisability of tumptuary legal enactments by houestly believing workers, no one for an instant doubts tho supreme need of bringing up childreu to act temperauco, voto tern- Serance, and to be temperate. As Irs. W., said, it 1s a grand aud noble work, and we kay, that the mother who doeb not teach temperauco to her children is uot lit to be a mother." The running ot lumbar from this section is about at an eud for the Bea son, the last "Allegheny" having drop ped out of the mouth ot the creek yes terday morning. Of all the favorable seasons for running lumber, that is in weather, water, &c, we don't believe there ever was ne that would come up to the one just past. The creek came up to good rafting stage and re mained so for two weeks, allowing all who had a board to run to get out safely. The river is just right for running and there is no reason why all tho rafts should not be lauded safe ly in market. Tionesta creek was never so Iree of lumber after the spring run b'iuco the first inception of the bus iness as it now is. We are glad to note in this connection that lumber aud timber are bringing better figures in Pittsburgh this season than they have for ten years, limber is Belling at from twelve to eighteen cents per cubic foot, while 6ome prime lots have brought as high as twenty cents. Man ufactured lumber commands a propor tionately large figure, we understand, but have not heard prices quoted. All this is highl":ratifyioc;to our people who r.n0i,r "- of raoroirg. Burdett and her daughter had Jt gone to London, and were settled in apartments for the winter. They had their windows full of plants, some of which were in bloom, and they had ca naries caged among them. Their apart ments were bright and cheerful, and furnished in warm colors ; they seemed suitably situated. Mrs. Burdett was never weary of talking of Norman La mar. He seemed to have impressed her wonderfully. His fine presence, his noble bearing, and his mild, beautiful face were constant themes of delight to her. She described him so often to the rosy-cheeked little woman j,who served their meals, that one day she exclaimed: " In a million I'd know him I" " You could not fail, for you do not find one such in every million," had been the reply. Zaida never mentioned him. She did not even appear to listen when her mother talked of him, but usually caught up her Kensington work and became intent upon it. The girl had changed. She had lost some of her old vim and fire. She read a great deal, and spent much time with her cheeks pillowed in her hands, gazing dreamily out at tho window. One day her mother said to her, a trifle sadly: I am afraid you are growing digni fied.. I never have to correct you any more." It was only when they were walking, as they did every day, that she wp-" MrsrGe'rTielV-. The crc-stumed to her home in PittaburgtTlast Thursday. Ben Hopewell, of Eldred, Pa., an old Tidioute boy, was in town last week visiting relatives aud friends. Misses Minnie and Hannah Christie are iu Warren visiting ffith Miss O'llern. There was some excitement in town last Friday over the stabbing affray between McGuire and Baughcr. Morck, from Warren, came down Wednesday to spend an evening. The trains lun just right. John Siggins came home from New York this morning, after spending a week there in buyiug a new spring stock of fancy and 6taple dry goods. The Ryan Bros., with George Marsh, left for St. Catharines, Canada, Friday afternoon. The Uncle Tom's Cabin Co. played to a full house here Friday night. It was good. W. R- Dawson and A. Dunn left for New fork to-day lor their new stock of goods. There were no services in the M. E. Church Suuday evening on account of Rev. Martin having a very bad sore throat. p We were so busy last week we failed to get our correspotice around iu time to get it iu the Republican's last weeks issue.

Blue Juy No. 2 is still keeping" up to her usual production of 15 barrels.

It seems tho Blue Jay district is shortly to be tapped by a narrow gauge railroad, to be run from Sheffield down the creek. This road was pro jected some time ago by Messrs. Hor ton & Creary, owners of the extensive tanneries at Sheffield. It was origin ally intended for the transportation of hark, ttc. The suddeu and unexpected oil developments has doubtless has tened the project, and it is supposed the road will be completed iu July ; the survey is now being made. It will be about eight miles iu length. A new hotel is already going up at Blue Jay, the owner being Thos. Hill, quite well known in the oil regions.

I have not altered my intentions since that time.' There are at present three candidates iu the field either of whom are experienced teach ers and well qualified for the office who have far more ability to discharge the dutie-i of office than I have, who are better educated, and' have had much more successtul experience in the school room than I have had. Ever wishing to do anything to fur tber the interests and welitare ot our schools, I do not see any place that could do them more good than to leave the Superiutendency of them to those who are properly educated and able to take charge of them.
