It is reported that the B. P. & W. R'y Co. is negotiating for the purchase of the Knox and Proper properties at tho mouth of Tionesta creek, on which to build depots, &c, for the lionesta Valley R'y. This, if true, begins to very much as though the railroad UP tUd crcek was a pretty certain thing. Chautauaua Lake is furnishing its usual 6upply of drowning accidents this season. Already several cases have been reported : in fact, scarcely a week passes but we read of one or . . Ihe latest victim is Cle mcnt Ilorton, aged twenty-one, who was drowned on Saturday afternoon last.

Clarion Jachsonian. Mr. Henry C. Stewart, Secretary of the Southwark Manufacturing Co., of Philadelphia, was in town last week and dropped iu a few minutes to see us. Mr. S. is largely interested in Forest county territory, and his busi ness here was to see about his inter ests. He is a pleasant gentleman, and we hope ho will como oftoner aud stay logger, Sel.

The first annual reunion of the Veteran Soldiers' Association of Ve nango county, will be held nt Frank- in, on Thursday, Aug. 25, 1881. The most elaborate preparations have bseu made for this a flair and it promises to be a most complete success. Efforts are to be mado to secure the attend- ance of General Hancock and other listinguished eoldier3. A cordial in vitation i. extended to every veteran soldier aud sailor in Western Penu'c. We find the following item in one of our exchanges, and right here wo wish to extend hearty congratulations to our old friend Harry. May the ittle lady grow up to bless the "old man in his declining years : "iiarry Bates, of the Meadville Messenger, wears a long smile ana a stana up collar. Last Friday night the angels visited his cozy home aud now he is heirless no more. It is a girl, 8 pounds avoirdupois."

Curt Shawkey has recently had printed in book form a list ot lands in Howe, Jenks, Green and Kingsley townships of this county. It gives the No. of the warrant. No. of acres, the owner's or agent's name and address and altogether is tho most complete thing of the kind that could be gotten up. Curt, is in a position where he can gather the necessary information for such a list, and it can be relied upon for accuracy. The price is $5.00; which is dirt cheap when the amount of labor it takes to get up such a list is taken into consideration. To be had by addressing C. M. Shawkey, Tionesta, Forest Co., Pa. Mr. Chas. Judd, who is putting the finishing touches on the carpenter work of Iloleman & Hopkins' build- ing, had his vest containing a gold watch and chain valued at $125, and somo small change stolen. He had been at work after supper, and had hung his vest in the room whero he was working. When St got too dark to work he walked into the back room to put bis tools away and upon returning found his vest had disappeared. He ias an idea who stole the property, but the chauces are he will never see it again. The thief must have been watching an opportunity as Mr. Judd was out of the room but a minute or two. -Peterson's Magazine for Septem ber is at hand, as usual, ahead of all others. The leading feature for this month is an elegant steel engraving, "Blind Milton Dictating Paradise Lost to his Daughters," after the world-famous pictcre by Munkacsy, the great Hungarian artist. The usual double-size colored steel fashion plate, a speciality of this magazine ; the usual colored pattern, which, this month, is the head of Lady Washing ton, to be worked on Java canvas. Every lady ought to be a subscriber to "Peterson; it combines more for less money, than any other. The mice is but 82.00 a year. Address Chas. J. Peterson, 306 Chestnut St Philadelphia. We acknowledge the receipt of a complimentary ticket to tha Fair to be given by the Venango County Agri cultural Society in Franklin, Sept. 21 22, and 23. This society is composed ot Venaugos best citizeuo, who are putting forth every effort to make the coming Fair the best ever held in Northwestern Pennsylvania. Many new features will be introduced this year, among them an cducationa exhibit in which all the schools in the county will take part ; tho Bench Show of Dogs under the auspices of the Franklin Sportsman's Club, wil bo a novel feature, and one that is bound to attract many who would not otherwise attend. Some of the first citizens of Franklin have this depart ment in charge and are bound to make asuccessofit regardless of expense Altogether the Fair promises to be grand in every respect, and will wel repay a visit to Franklin to see. Mrs. F. Simmering, Millersville, Pa., had Ozena and Chronic Catarrh Parana cured her entirely. Mr. Vennor makes a third at tempt at August and furnishes the fol- owing to Stoddart's Review as his forecast of tho weather for the month : "Heat nnd storms first few days, merging into cooler weathor aud cooler nights. Spring wheat may hardly come up to the average through rust. Up to tho 12th weather varying from moderately warm to very warm, with frequent severe storms of wind, rain and hail ; cool evenings and nights. Change after the 13th to cooler and windy weather ; the 13t.h to cooler and windy weather ; the 15th and 16th cool and cold, with frost in many sec tions, both in Canada and the United States (New York State in particular.) About the same date a severe storm period probable through tobacco-grow ing district of Virginia. Sultry and warm again toward the 20th. Be tween 20th and 25th ditto, with rain and hail storms pretty general. Cool change about the 20th in Canada and JNortbern btates. Wind storms in Ontario on lakes; also along Atlantic coast, and at New York in particular, toward 25lh and 26th, Varible, but seasonable weather after the 25th. Cool about tho 29th and 30th, with possibly light frosts in sections and wind storms West. September will enter sultry, with showers and wind storms." Letter List.

The Tunkhannock Democrat csli mates that halt a million dollars iu "grave yard lite insurance is held in Wyoming county. The New York Times regards "Hammocks as dangerous and of a deadly nature." If that's all we'l take our chances with that part of it. Boat-riding on the river is not good as it used to be. Persons who have practiced rowing in mill pond among stumps, can manage to get thei oars over the rocks. For seed save the cucumber grow ing nearest the root, and you will have therefrom an earlier and smaller variety ; save those near the end of the vine3 and they will produce a larger and later variety. One of our exchanges says: "Tio nesta has three doctors, three lawyers, three ministers and three editors, and none of them are overworked." A compliment to our health, our peace and our morals. Wo only wish we could return the compliment. Mr. Vennor now predicts a great change in the weather about the time the new comet is in its perihelion. This will occur on the 20th inst. Du ring the week ending on that day he thinks we shall bo nearly frozen by frosts and strong cold northerly winds. The boys at "Camp Forepaw," on Fleming Island, are having a tip-top time. We had the pleasure to partake of some of the necessaries of lifo with them, and found it as good as dished up anywhere. They are enjoy ing it as much as if they were camp ing at Chautauqua Lakn, so they say. Tha following is a fao simile copy of a notice tacked Lfl a tree on the Jug Handle Road. It explains uself: NotoL this Roade is not Psihle not caven Jackassabrb but if you Want to travvlo Bring your oue gravle by order of Commsers Mrs. Charles Diley, Pittsburg, soys, she had Chronic Catarrh badly. Peruna cured her perfectly. Horrible If True. Monday's Derrick contains the fol lowing account of a most distressing affuirat President. It is strange we had not heard of the frightful occur rence before : "A lady who has been visiting at President, informs U3 con cerning one of the moBt terrible acci dents that ever came to our knowledge. There resides rear President a widow who had three children. A few days since she was preparing dinner and had the youngest child with her in the house. The other two children wero 6ent by ber to hunt ome egga. They were both young and going out cf the house saw a hollow log in' the yard. Oue of them put in her little hand to see if there were any eggs, but quickly pulled it out saying a chicken bid bitten her. The other inserted her hand and jeiked it out with a scream. A rattlesnake had bitten them both. The scream of tha secoud child brought out the mother and lifting a kettle of boiling potatoes from the stove, so they would not burn, she started out. She had just got outside tho door when she was recalled to the bouse by tha agonizing cries of the baby, who had crawled across the floor and upset the boiling water over himself. She was almost disheartened and did not know what to do. Help soon arrived and- everything that could be done was dona for the three little sufferers, but nothing did any good. They all rap- dly grew worse and within a day all three died and were buried inlhesamo grave. The name we did not learn, but we are assured that the above are tho facta." Oil New3. We have been able to learn little or nothing of the doings in oil in Forest county during the past week. Mr. Peter Berry passed through town Monday, en route for Balltown, but as he had not been there for ten days previous he could givo us no news as to what was'doing there. TRUSKEYVILLE. The Grove & Wolcott well opposite Trunkeyville, was down 300 feet on Saturday last, at which depth it was cased. The well is expected to be in on Friday of this week, aud the oper ators are confident of getting a good strike. We hopo so. BLUE JAY. In tho Blue Jay field everything seems to be quiet at present ; the wells that are drilling are going down with out much fuss. It is likely we Bhall hear somethirg definite next week. We learn that the Fox, Hill & Reed well was torpedoed, but the operators had not succeedsd in getting it cleaned out when we got the report. MARIENVILLE. Dr. Towler's well, which has been progressing so quietly that we had al most forgotten it, was shot with a 40 quart torpedo on Friday last, at a depte of 2,000 feet. It is supposed the shot was to great, as the hole be came clogged, and at last accouuts they were engaged in cleaning it out. F.Avpral ntinrta of oil wera taken out with the bailer, and the gas waB very strong. They expected to have the hole cleared yesterday, but we have not heard what the, result was. This well is located on the headwaters of Salmon Creek, about a quarter of a mile from the village of Maricnville. CORRECTED EVERY TUESDAY, I1Y RELIABLE DEALERS.
