The young folks of town had a pleasant daacing party at Partridge Hall Monday night. Mr. Win. IloberUteio, of Alle gheny City, is the guest of Mr. S. C. Sloau'a family this week. Mias Retta Pioper went to Shef field yesterday to pay her friend Miss Florence Einstein a visit. The chirp of the katydid and cricket is sow the last thing one hears before dropping off to sleep. Adoldph Ileibel of Warren, spent a few days with his young friends of this place during the past week. Mrs. Emma Whiteman, of Kel lettville, spent Friday and Saturday of last week with Tionesta friends. Mrs. C. II. Zimmerman, of Steu benville, Ohio, is paying her aunt, Mrs. Samuel Clark, a visit at present. Lewis Wagner of Tionesta town ship, is happy over the arrival of a boy at hia house last Friday night. The borough schools will open a week from next Monday, and the small boy shudders when be thinks of it. Warren lost one of her most prominent citizens last week in the death of Copt. Robert Dennisoc, which occerried on the loth. Work was commenced yesterday on the abutments of the new bridge at Hickory, and will be prosecuted with all possible haste. Mr. George Kerr, of Tylersburg, who will wield the birch in the upper room of our borough schools, waj on our streets to-day. Misets Blanch and May Mclntire of Philadelphia, and Miss Jessie Hen derson of Pleasantville, are the guests of Miss Maud Davis this week. Miles W. Tate Esq., is away on a ten days' trip combining business with pleasure, and will doubtless visit his uld home n Clearfield couuty before returning. Some of our citizens stopped up to the captain's debk yesterday mora iug and redeemed their cows which had been kindly cared for during the night by the Poundmaster. Blackberries are abundant and are selling at eight cents per quart. It is likely many of our citizens will make their usual trip to the berry woods before the season is over. Our cpmmunity has no reed te fear an onion famine this winter, as W. Y. Biggins will have something like a hundred bushels from his patch on the eld Holmes House property. Last Friday Chas. Whiteman'a team hauled from the woods to the ex tract works on Salmon five and one half cords ef hemlock bark, which is claimed te be the largest load ever hauled there, and we don't think any one will dispute it. The river and creek are now lower than they have been during the year '83. It rained just enough to lay the dust on Monday, which is the first we bava had for nearly a month, and it would not be surprising ta see the other extreme reached before cold weather comes. We have had the extreme wet season. Harvey Foreman took a tumble to himself on Friday last, falling from the scaffold of his building a distance of about 15 feet, but fortunately es caping with but two or three slight bruises. This is the month for registration. Look at the registry lists at the poll ing places and see that your name is registered there. To secure a vote the elector must be registered before Sep tember 1st. Baldwin's official Railway Guide is issued for August and will prove a boon to the summer tourist. This ex cellent Guide hss grown so Bteadily in publio favor that it has become an ac tual necessity to the traveler. There is but a short time left for the registration of voters, and we would admonish our Republican friends to see that their names are on the list. Don't neglect it. See to it right away I The telegrapher's strike has en ded in a failure of the strikers to bring the Western Union to terms, and all who are able to get their former po sitions are or have gone to work un. derjthe old conditions. Complaiot is made about the boys who make a practice of bathing in Tionesta creek in too close proxim ity of the Oldtown school house. The party who informed us says the offend ers are liable to be prosecuted. S. S. Canfield took a large new boiler to Balltown this week, which will do duty on some of the Kelly & Grandin wells at that place. For moving heavy machinery Canfield takes a back seat for none of 'em. Judge Reck left yesterday morn ing for a three weeks visit among his old friends in Ohio, and may extend his trip to Indiana. We wish the Judge a pleasant time. During his absence Mr. Carr will look after the meat market in good style. Judge Proper has sold the oak and hemloek timber on bis land along Tubes Run to some parties, whose cames we are not able to recall, who will begin the erection of a mill there forthwith. Besides sawing lumber they talk of putting in a stave mill also. Since the high constable has "got his hand iu" we hope he will ridgidly enforce the cow ordinance, and let no guilty man escape. If the law is a good one it is good for all, and if a bad one let it be bad for all. The h. c. aforesaid informs us that all offen ders will be served alike.. The ice cream festival last eve ning by the W. C. T. U. was a well patronized and very nicely conducted affair. The cream and accompani ments were delicious and all that could be wished, aud no doubt the Union's exchequer was quite handsomely re plenished. Mrs. W. R. Dunn, of Creoksten, Minn., arrived in town Monday, and will remain with Tionesta friends for six weeks or two months. She is ac campauied by her little daughter Louise. We understand Mr Dunn expects to make his old friends here a visit during bis wife's stay, and we hope he will. One week from next Saturday, Sept. 1st, it will be lawful to kill squirrels, and already we hear some of the boys talking of opening the season with a grand match bunt. As yet we have heard of but few squirrels being seen, but tbat never deters a Tionesta crowd from bunting, just as hard, and a eood deal harder, in fact. If the boyB want to bunt they ought to de it, and the scarcer the game the wore skill is shown in bringing a good bag, Capt. Stow Post will meet to-mor row evening to take steps looking to the arrangemeuts for the reception and cere of tfae veUiaus of the 83d regi ment at the reunion here on the 18th of next mouth, and it is hoped that a full attedance of the comrades of the Post will be bad. The time is grow ing short only three weeka from next Tuesday and by the time the com mittees are named and all get to work there will be cone to lose,aod it will re quire active work to have everything in readiness. Let our citizeus both of this place and the surroundings, tarn in and assist te make the affair a success and give the boys a royal wel come, such o one as they will remem ber in years to come and that shall be a credit ta our county and shew the hospitality of her citizens. Wo must not let the reputation of our community suffer on this occasion. Fairs will ,be held at the . follow ing places and dates: Mercer, September 5, 6 and 1. Kittanning, Sept. 11, 12, 13 and 14.

The government land sale took place at the Court House in this place Wednesday forenoon and was quite largely attended. As will be Been by the following the lands commanded fair prices, I. N. Patterson of Frank lin Pa., being the purchaser of all ex cept the Island, which was sold in a lamp to Eli Holeman of this place for $520.00. The Elder fafm 100 acres, went for $4 per acre; Eli Pierson farm, 100 acres, at $9.75 per acre; Wm. Pierson farm, 100 acres at (9.25 per acre; Eli Holeman farm, 91 acres, at $9.25 per acre ; Holeman farm, 401 acres, at $8.25 per acre. As the time ef year is here when the Canadian thistle wtll begin to rip en its seed) a little attention to the law on that subject will not be out of place. The law says that any person or cor poration owning or leasing lands up on which the Canada thistle grows, and neglects or rofuses to destroy the same is liable to a fine of fifteen dol lars, one-half to the county and one half to the informant or if after five days notice to destroy them so as to prevent the spread of the seed, anoth er man cav enter upon the land and destroy them and recover pay at .the rate of two dollars per day for the work. The time is not faraway when our cjunty will feel the need of holding an annual fair ; indeed, we think it would not be out of place to begin agitating the subject now, as we have no doubt our county could show up some farm products equal to any of our neighboring counties. In this connection it might be well to read what the Franklin Independent Press has to say on the subject: More than in any preceding season the more enlightened papers and africul tu,ral authorities are commending the value aud usefulness of the county fair. The new ideas gathered at the annual exhibitions are good seeds that often fall on rich ground, and spring up to the honor of all who have aided in making the fair a success. The American Agriculturist asserts that the agricultural exhibitions have laid the foundations of social and esthetic improvements, which are manifest in the various departments of the town or county fair. It is to be hoped that no opportunity will be lost to profit by a day of sight-seeing, social inter course, and study of the various new and improved implements, fruits, farm animals, etc., that should be found on the grounds of every well-conducted agricultural fair. Peterson's magazine for Septem ber has made its appearance. The principal steel eugraving is one of the handsomest that has appeared in this magazine for many months; the color ed fashion plate is always gay, while the many different patterns are among its grandest features. This number contains a tidy pattern on Java Canvas which is well worth the price of the book. Send to Chas J. Peterson, 306 Chestnut St. Philadel phia for sample copy. Ballou'8 Magazine for September contains a long installment of the pop ular story of the day, "The Belle of Australia," by William II. Thomas. There is much iu Ballou that should command attention, as it has some excellent stories besides "The Belle," and there is no magazine in the coun try that has such a variety of matter.

OIL NOTES. . f j Porcupine Oil Co.'s Jfo. 9, of which we gave a report last week, was open ed Thursday and the first twenty-four hours it made between 2,000 and 2 400 barrels. It has declined consid erably since, but is still good for 1, 200 barrels. The next wells due at the front are Grandin No. 11 on 5,236, and Ball- town No 10. Grandin eleven is loca ted on a line between Nos. 3 aud 10, and there is no reason why it shouldn't be a large producer. Balltown No. 11 is on 4,821. Grove & Co. have another wildcat about completed on tract 5210, Bea ver Valley. It is located on tho northwest corner of the tract, which lies about four miles nearly doe west from Balltown. They are making a mystery of this well. The last gaage of the Cooper tract was 3,218 barrels, and of Balltown 4,327 barrels, this being on Saturday. This morning's Derrick says : Two wells in the Balltown district may be expected in the sand to-morrow, or possibly next day, viz, Grandiu & Kelly's No. 11, warrant 5.236, and the Balltown Oil Company's No. 10, on warrant 4,822. The former is lo cated sixty rods southwest of Grandin No. 3, between the latter and Grandin No. 10. It is favorably located, but may show drainage. From the loca tion it should make a record of from 400 and 600 barrels for the first twenty-four hours gauge. No. 3 is making now about 250 barrels and has been shot once. Balltown No. 10, ou 4.821, is about sixty rods north of No. 7. It is on a 63 line between Grandin No. 3 and the old Porcupine ffell, No. 1. A cluster of wells, viz, Ralltown wells Nos. 3 and 6, Porcupine Nos. 1, 3, 6, 8 and 9 have declined ever forty per cent, since Saturday night. Their aggregate production for that day was 2,337 barrels ; for the twenty-four hours ending last (Monday) night the production of the same wells was 1355 barrels, a decline of 997 barrels since Saturday. Syndicate well No. 2 was shot to-day with good results. The Anchor Oil Compauy's No. 2 was also torpedoed to-day. The Anchor Oil Conipuna's No. 27 struck second sand to-day. There is 200 or 360 feet of oil in the hole this afternoon, and it is showing for a fair second sand pro ducer. They are moving the boiler this afternoon. Welvin, Walker, Shannon fc Com pany's No. 20, is on top of the sand to-day. They are moving the boiler. No. 20 is west of the old Sbultz well. The same company are five bits in the sand, and shewing for a forty barrel well alter a shot. It is 700 feet north of the company's No. 10. The Syndicate drilling well, No. 6, is expected in the sand Thursday of this week. It is 700 feet north of Syn dicate No. 4. The latter was torpedoed Friday and started at the rate of forty barrels per hour. It is now doing 120 barrels per diem. No. 2 was torpedoed the same day and is now making 150 barrels per diem, or thereabouts. The McCalmont Oil Company's No. 10 in the southeast corner of lot 10, Henry lands, drilled through the second sand, aud the latter is minus the expected crude. It will probably make a third sand producer of uncer tain calibre. The company's No. 7 on the Reid & Brenneman lease is due to-morrow. Probabilities a dry hole. Newtown Pine Knots.

ANNnilNfiFMFKIT We take pleasure in announcing that we have perfected arrangements with the publishers of the American Farmer that enable us to club that magazine with the Forest Republi can at the low price of S1.75 per year, a trifle over the price of the ' Republi can alone. This is beyond question the first time that a reliable agricul tural paper has been offered at so cheap a price, and we trust all our subscribers will avail themselves of this unusual opportunity of securing a first class agricultural magazine. The Ameri can Farmer is beyond doubt worth three times the prico, at which we place it. Try it. It is a monthly publication. MARRIED. GLAUB-NELLIS In Tionesta, Augunt 18, 1883, by Rev. J. P.
