Mr. Hunter has put some substan tial repairs on the Tionesta end of bis bridge.

' We notice by the Newton, (Kas.,) Republican that W. ,E. Lathy Esq., has been elected to the office of County Attorney, which pays about $1,200 a year.

Hardly a day has passed Bince the election that eight to ten have not gone through here for tbo big woods, and if every tenth man should kill a deer there won't be enough left for breeders next spring. While splitting wood the other day Geo. Albaugh allowed his ax to oome in contact with the crown of his head, and the result was a gash about two inches long, and deep enough to touch the skull. A little more and Geo. would have severed au artery which would doubtless have bled him to death. Ihe Superintendent of Forest county will be in his office iu the Court House, at Tionesta, on the sec ond Saturday of Dec, on the first Saturday of Jan., on the last Saturday of Jan., and on the last Saturday of Feb. and Mar., for the purpose of meet ing with any person who may have business with him. The latest is a counterfeit $2.50 gold piece, bearing date of 1858. The new counterfeit piece ia much lighter than the genuine, but this would not be detected save by a person in the hab it of handling a good deal of money, country editors, for instance and in the hurry and bustle of trade, a man would most likely Uke it without hes itation. The Weekly Newt, is a new can didate for public favor published in Dayton, Armstrong Co., Pa., by Messrs. Elder, Orr & Co.

We wish it success. Oil dropped from $1.28 to $1.12 last Friday, which causes the Franklin Evening News to offer this timely ad vice: The uncertainty of dabbling in oil Btocks is shown by the great drop in to-day's market. Young man, if you have enough money to buy your winter's overcoat, don't invest it in oil with the expectation of doubling it, but buy the coat. We are requested to state that a meeting of thojo who subscribed to and are interested in the purchase of a fire engine for this borough, will be held at this office, an to-morrow, (Thursday) evenipg.

The item in the Pittsburgh Com mercial of Saturday last from Blairs ville, to the effect that Gen. White bad objected in open court on the day of counting the returns of the late election to the granting of a certificate to J. D. Patton, Congressman-elect, on the grounds that Patton had used money to procure his election, was in correct and had no foundation what ever.

Our neighbor of the Democrat ig nores the Greenbackers altogether in his reports of rat ton's election to Con gress; however, that is about the size of it. The Greenbackers of this dis trict are good enough to help elect a Democrat, but they aro entirely lost sight of after the election is over. Meanwhile the member-elect votes with the Democrats on all party issues, aud when it comes to a Greenback measure he dodgos. The question is, how loog will the G. Bs. allow them selves to be duped in this manner. The December number of Ballou's Magazine contains the best and most expressive short account of the life of Robert Burns, the Scotch poet, that we have ever read. It was prepared with great care by Mr. John D. Ross, of New York, an admirer of the poet, yet written with great impartiality and fidelity. It should be read by the many million friends of Burns, for there is much that is now and interest ing in it.

The following, which we clip from the Franklin Oil Region of last Sun day, will be read with profound sor row by the many old friends of the subject of the article, who was the father of our townsman, S. D. Irwin, Esq. : The venerable Judge Irwin, one of oldest and most esteemed residents of Venango county, died at his residence in this city yesterday afternoon, at a few minutes past three o'clock. Al though not unexpected, tha news of his decease will fall upon our citizens with a fotce of personal bereavement. The familiar figure of the worthy dead had so long appeared on our streets that everybody knew and respected him. The youug had always been ac customed to his kindly presence, and the old remembered hira from their earliest years. His fathsr settled in Cherrytree township so far back as the century, when his son Richard was a small boy. Fourscore years have pass ed since the family moved into the un broken wilderness, and the child of that period has just passed away at the patriarchal age of eighty-five. Under the training of wise parents Mr. Ir win was carefully reared, well educa ted and thoroughly qualified for the duties of an active, honorable career. He studied land surveyiug and the re sults of his labors are yet visible in every part of this and adjoining coun ties. In due time he married, settled in Franklin and brought up a good family. Several of bis children pre ceded him to the grave, while four survive to revere his memory. He filled various offices with eredit and fidelity, serving a term also as Asso ciate Judge. Whether io private or official life he was ever the same ex emplary citizen, irreproachable in con duct and consistent in his convictions. As a writer he enjoyed no little popu larity, and his contributions frequent ly enriched the newspapers years ago. For months he bad failed gradually, lately be was confined to his bed, aud it became painfully evident to bis friends that tho end could not be far off. The closing cene was singularly peaceful, not a struggle marking the passage into eternity. Gently as an infant sinkiug into clumber he passed from earth, a fitting termination of a long and well spent life. FESTIVAL. An Oyster Festival will be held in the Haslet Hall, over Haslet &.

Many startling reports have been circulated within the past week con cerning the Anchor Oil C'o.'s well on the Cooper tract, Howe township. Some were to the effect that it was flowing 1100 barrels a day, while others stated it was 200 or less. It had the effect to bring oil down last Friday, however, and make many a poor fellow's chin drop onto his chest. The mnrket soon rallied, and has since been flourishing all the way from $1.16 to $1.20, and it is now thought the well is a little more than a fair producer, yet it seems no one can tell as to toat; meanwhile speculators in oil are on the "ragged edge." The Tionesta Oil Co., we under stand, propose putting their well on 5211 down 150 or 200 feet deeper, be lieving that they are not yet deep enough to get the oil bearing Band. It is said the Whig Hill wells are shut down for the winter, but that the owners have by no means given up the hope of getting oil there. Cornwell's venture at Root & Wat son's mill has been cleared of its im pediments and drilling resumed. It is expected to be finished this week. It is now something over 1800 -hundred feet deep. The patties who drilled the Tylers burg well have moved their machinery to a point near Marieuville, and will put down a well forthwith. We were not able to learn the exact location. Neilltown Notes.

Next to setting a good example is the following of on. Accept our congratulations. Dr. Willson's experience in farming on his farm at Neilltown is ' the inci dental cause of an anusing story. The Doctor had in his employ a son of the Fatherland whose acquaintance with corn was so limited as to be an inap preciable quantity. One day during the time of oats harvest the Doctor bad driven over to Neilltown on some business. Hitching his horse near the cornfield he told the aforraentioned scion of the Fatherland to gather aud put into bis buggy a dozen roasting ears. The remiuiscence of Sodowa and hero of Sedan was completely in comprehensible to the term "toasting ears." It was a problem but he got an answer; for the Doctor upon re turning to his buggy found a dozen young green pumpkins in it. Nov. 20, '82. By the Way, Whig Hill Waifs. Now that bad weather has come up on us we have nothing particularly to do but keep ourselves warm around the blazing fire.
