It has btea several years since any dsmonttrations of the kind have taken place ia Tionesta, and if we don't soon wake up we will entirely forget America's greatest na tional holiday. Let the eagle screaa once more ia our tows. Since the opening of their new short line betweea this section and Bradford the B. P. A W. R. R. has had an Immense passenger traffic. Every train is packed, and the travel between Warren and Bradford is in creasing so rapidly that they will boob be obliged to add more coaches to their trains. The new piece of road from Warren to Kinzua is already in excel lent order, and the trains glide over it as smoothly as though it were a road of several years standing. Te those who have never been in that region a trip over the road would well repay them for the time and expense.

Mr. Porter had moved away, but before going had left with tho new tenant, in trust for Mr. Irwin a pewter porridge platter which once belonged to Robert Patterson, the original of Walter Scott'a "Old Mor tality," and which was brought from Scotland by one of the family in 1770. Mrs. Porter is a diroct descendant of "Old Mortality," and hence came to have the venerable relic in her possess ion. It is twelve inches in diameter and two inches deep.

Mr. George Morgan died suddenly yesterday, Tuesday morning, at 8 o'clock, at his late residence on Vine St. Although of lato in very feeble health he was still able to be about on Sat urday evening last attending a meet ing of tho Borough Council his death was a Bad surprise to our" citizens, many of whom not knowing of the serious turn of his disease, which was a complication, of heart and kidnev complaints, from which ho had been a 8ulierer for a number of years. Mr. Morgan was born near Calient burg, Clarion Co., Pa., July 5, 1815 and would have been 67 years of age had ho lived ono month longor. He came to Tionesta in the year 18G8, and embarked ia barge building, in which business he was quite suc cessful. He afterwards took charge of tho old Gordon Millf at the mouth of Bear creek, and engaged quito exten sively in the manufacture of lumber. He would doubtless have been verv successful had not old age and poor health proventcd his giving the busi ness tha necessary attention. After ceasing business at that point he re moved to Tionesta where he has re sided ever siuce, being always an hon ored and highjy esteemed citizen. He was a great reader and kept himself posted in the current affairs of the day. Ho was a most welcome and almost daily visitor to our sanctum, where he used to take delight in perusing the exchanges, aud his rem iniscences cf early days, told in ' quaint way, made him a very comp. -ionable and agreeable guest. We will miss his visits greatly. Mr. Morgan was elected Burgess of Tionesta without opposition ia Feb ruary last, and after his inauguration he gave the affairs of the borough care ful attention, and bade fair to become iho moot useful officer tbe town has had for maay years. During bis res idence among ua he has borne ia a high degree tbe esteem and best wishes of all our citizens, who honored him on account of the straightforward, peaceable life ha led, and he leaves belaud a pure name. His asred wife and quite a large family of grown liildren survive mm, who h&ve the tender sjmpatby.of the community in general. The funeral will take place this afternoon, from Lis late residence, at 4 o'clock. A Chance for Tionesta. The citizens of Titusvilleare talking very loud of building a narrow guage railroad from that place to tbe new oil field in Warren county, the route to be either up East Hickory creek, or by the way of Tidioute. There are several roads surveyed and partly gra ded leading from Titusville, and among them ia the old Pennsylvania Petroleum road which was originally intended to run to Pithole. This route could easily be changed to run through this place, up Tionesta creek to Minis ter, thence to the big wells in Cherry Grove township, and the road could be built at a moderate coet on account of the remarkably easy grade up the creek. It would be a standard guage, and would not depend, eutirely on the oil interests to keep it up, aa the vast lumber, bark, and mineral re sources of that section would be tapped and furnish au immense traffic. The read need not ueccsearily stop at Ti tusville but could be built to Erie, where it was originally intended to run and thus furnish an outlet to the great lakes. With a proper effort put forth by our citizens, now that tho boom is upon us it is thought by men who are posted that tbe scheme could be carried through easily. Let our capitalists give tho matter prompt attention and strike while the iron is hot. It would be the making of Tio nesta and would prove of greater ben efit to tho county iu general than any railroad within our borders. Tho gol den opportunity should by no moans be overlooked by our business men. Everybody can Have one Now!

Drilling on tho Beaver Valley well ia this oounty, is being vigorously puiliod at present, butwhat depth they have reached is only known to the owners and those directly inter ested, and tbey don't propose to "give it away" at present. If they succeed in making a mystery out of it aa good as the one on 646 we'll be satisfied to wait until they get ready to open it. Grove, Hart & Co. have a rig nearly completed for another well at Beaver Valley, near the one now drilling at that place. They will rattle it down to tha sand m fast aa Providence will allow. From Monday's Derrick we cull the following interesting oil news : The latest news received Saturday night from the Cadwallader well, on lot 635, was that it was flowing as strong as ever. Its production was estimated at 1,500 and 2,000 barrels. For six hours on Saturday it flowed steadily without a break. From six o'clock Friday night until eleven o'clock Saturday, it flowed seventy barrels an hour, or at rate of 1,680 barrels a day. It filled a COO barrels tank a 250 tank, aDd also put 120 bar rels into a 600 barrel tank from the time it commenced flowing Friday afternoon at three o'clock until seven o'clock Saturday morning. A dispatch received from Garfiold Saturday after noon, said it was flowing at the rate of 1,500 barrels. The company intends drilling this well through the sand if possible, to ascertain what the depth of the rock is, and how deep oil is to ba found in it. Their other well on lot 647 ia still shut down on top of the sand. On Saturday the pipe line was tak ing oil away from ths Murphy tanks at tbe rate of between forty and fifty barrels an hour, and the well was re ported gaining on it. Mr. Murphy weBt to the well on Saturday but did not.start the drill, although he had intended to do so. He probably thought the well was crowding the pipe line and task builders hard enough in its present condition with out itirring it up any more. At pres ent the two gushers on 635 and 619 are having a go-as-you-please race for the biggest production. During the present week fear new wells in Cherry (grove district will attract the attention of oilmen, besides those now in the eand and flowing. Tbe first of these will be J. A. Cad wallader & Co.'s on lot 647, which is now shut down on top of the Band. Workmen are putting up two 1,200 tanks here, and it will probably be opened at aa early date. The Ma hoopany oil company's, Jot 611, the owners say, will be unplugged next Wednesday. Lot 659, J. A. Cadwal lader & Co., are drilling a well near the southwestern corner, which Bbould be in the sand this week if the drillers push work lively and have no bad luck. This well ia located three quar ters of a mile southwest of the mystery ou 646. The Uuioa eil company drill ing well on let 633, should be near the sand. The drill was started at this venture May 10th, and if it had been speedily pushed would have been hoard before this. Tbe well is located 300 rods northwest of 646. It is under stood to be in the hands of other par ties now, and that drilling has been suspended for some time. iesterdays Derrick: One report this morning was that the Murphy was flowing 400 barrels, the mystery 500 and the Cadwallader 1,200 barrels. Yesterday a forty-five hour guage en the Murphy well made it's production sixty barrels an hour, or at the rate of 1,440 barrels a day. It is estimated Cadwallader'a well is flowing at a 1,500 barrel rate, and the my3tery may be estimated from 500 to 800 barrels. With these figures tho total daily pro duction of this district would be placed at from 3,400 to 3,600 barrels. , Bargains! 3 oz, Silver Case Watches, flue movemont, $12.00.

The Temperance Lecture, last Thursday evening, under the auspices of tho W. C. T. U., was a success in the hands of Rev. C. T. Morgan, of Oil City, and was listened to with approval by a large body of onr citi zens, who, to say tho least, were inter ested in the manner in which the sub ject was discussed. The lecturer was ai once maniy, canaiu, iranK, iruinnu and eloquent. He jumped at no ran dom conclusions, and invented no sta tistics, but treated his subject scien tifically. He did not, as the average lecturer does, begin by insulting the place and citizens, by stating that he understood that this was one of the worst places in the State or United States, and was therefore in the great est need of a reform, and insinuate that he was tbe man to do it the re former especially delegated, and then draw his fees and go off and publish an article in the New York Herald and slander the place, as one did in a neighboring town that "that Hie place was the greatest cohny of reform drunk-.' ards on Hie face of the globe." Oh no; nothing of the kind, but was logical and sensible throughout, indulging in no spread-eagle flights. He stated to the writer a fact, which ought espec ially be maintained to his credit as .a candid, painstaking gentleman, ia regard to Forest county, which should be noted. The statement was, that for the last ten years he had read over and compared the published Statements of the Board of Charities and of tho Pris ons of Pennsylvania, and that Fortst county, by tbe record, taking the gen eral average for the last decade, shows fewer prisoners in jail and peniten tiary, and fewer paupers in preportion to the population than any county lie had examined. That the record in respect to prisoners and paupers was No. 1. This is certainly a' sourVe ef pride to the county and an encourage ment to keep this good record bright. He was surprised when I informed him that at the present time, and for 10 years, Forest county was not repre sented in the Penitentiary by any of her ewn citizens, but by foreigners who had committed depredations ia the limits of the county. The number of indictments or cases before Grand Juries is also less ia proportion to the inhabitants than in any county ac cording to statistics as far as they go. Potter and Forest counties are both practically out of debt and present the best moral record of any counties in the State. J. G. Borough Council Meeting. Met at tbe Prothonotary's office.
