Those wishing a handsome blue suit for the reunion next Tuesday should call on II. J. Hopkins & Co. They have a fine stock just suited to the occasion, at low prices. It A couple of street fakirs triedito "sell" the peeple some fine (T) jew elry last Monday evening. They left yesterday morning wiser but no rich tt than when they struck tbe burg. The Tidioute Kewe of last Fri day says : "Tidioute Post last night accepted the invitation of Tioaesta Post to attend the reunion of the 83d Regt., to be held in Tiouesta the 18th inst." The pound master still gets a little to do in his line these frosty nights, add when people can't find their cows in the evening they gener ally make a straight shot fer the pound next morning.

If your taxes are not paid at least thirty previous to the elect ion you cannot get a vote, and the time is now short. Attend to it at once. The A6hby, (Minn.) Avalanche, by our friend Luther Veught, has arrived and is a haudsome paper, full of news, and bears every evidence of becoming one of the solid institutions of the town. Again we say, success lo you, Luther. Wm. II. Frost, of Pigeon, Pa., has made a large clearing on the piece of land bought, of Geo. II. Means near the mill, at that place. This is only one of the numerous im provements being made along tbe "Big Level." On and after September 29th every dentist in Pennsylvania must have his diploma recorded in the office of the Recorder of the county in which he intends to practice. Tooth-car pentering without complying with this provision of the law is subjected to se vere penalty. That solid, clean-cut and staunch Republican paper, the Warren Mail, has lately been enlarged to nine col umns, aad otherwise improved in ap pearance. It is a pleasure to record this mark of prosperity on the part such an old friend as the Mail and we hope its success may continue indefi nitely. In our mention of the dedication of the new F. M. Church at Newraan ville we stated it would' take place on tbe 19th of Sept., whereas it should have been the 29th. The quarteily meeting will commence on Friday aflernooD, the 28th. Those expecting to attend will please bear this in mind. At a recent meeting of the bor ough council the Burgess was author ized to appoint six special police to do duty oc the day of the re union. The Bnrgess has appointed the following gentlemen : Henry Shoemaker, John Muenzenberger, James II. Ilulings, George Dunkle, James R. Clark, J. S. Hood. From what we cun learn from those who have tramped over the county there has not been the indus try in the bark woods that there has been for several years past. This was mainly on account of the wet season, and much of the bark peeled in the fore part of the season is con siderably damaged by the rain. The P , B. & B. R. R. division of the Pittsburgh & Western Railway has opened their road to Kane, McKean county, and are running two fast express traius each way a day The trains are scheduled about 30 miles per hour. The T. V. R. R makes close connections each way with the above trains and has several trains scheduled at 31 miles per hour. Ihe gentlemen who have given such satisfactory dances ou formor oc casions, have arranged for a grand ball at the Lawrence House on the afternoon and evening of the 18th, te which they extend a general invitation. Tbuy have arranged for a band of mu sic that will be better than any they have ever had before, and those who wish a good time should not fail to at tend. The fare as on former occasions will be very reasonable. Tbe boiler for the saw mill to be erected on Tubbs Run has arrived It is quite a largo one, weighing up ward of four and a half tons, and S. S Caofield, the boss of this section on moving heavy machinery, has the con tract of hauline it to its place. Mr Caofield will also commence the haul ing of a lot more machinery to Ball town in a few days. He can't be beat on this kind of teaming, and bus a reputation for it that extends back to the palmy days of Oil Creek. No use sending away to get such work done as that machinery never struck the place that he cannot move easily and with perfect safety. "Shell" takes the cake. For good fresh Goods cheap go to IIaklkt & So8. Feb. 1, '82, Mr. Charles 'M. Cox of Boston, one of lhe dwners of tho celebrated Spooner tract, situated on Tionesta Crek( about twelve miles from this place, was in town during the week., Mr. Cox's business here was in rela tion to the sale of the timber on this tract, and we understand it is now on the market an J for sale. He also in forms us that the company expects to develope the territory for oil in tho uear future. The heavy frosts of Saturday and Snnday nights did much damage to crops in this section. Many of the farmers who had fine fields of corn and buckwheat last week are left with out any to epeak of now. On Whig lill it was particularly severe ; Mr. Eli Berlin informs us that he had two fields, one of corn and ons of buck wheat, from which he expected to re alize at least $400 ; now he will har dly realize $50. Others have suffered in like proportion, and the chances are that corn and buckwheat will be scarce and high this fall. The Secretary of the Treasury last Saturday approved the sale to Mr. Isaac N. Patterson, of this city, of ands belonging to the United States in Venango and Forest counties, for $6,970. These lands are situated on the bank of the Allegheny river and were received by the Goverument as collateral for a debt of$G0,000 duo by the Venango National Bank to Uncle Sam. In 1866 one million dollars, it is said, was refused for this very land, which was then thought to be rich in oil, but which on testing proved to be dry territory. Franklin Spectator. -Bro. Dunn, 'way out in Crooks- ton, Minn., delivers the following ad vice which will hold good anywhere: "We hear of several Blight accidents from careless use of guns. The hunt ing season is every day becoming more attractive and it is well to ob serve common caution in handling guns as in other matters. Don't pull a gun toward you by tbe muzzle ; don't get into the wagon with your gnn loaded; don't carry your gun at full cock unless you are flushing a covey of chickens ; doo't point your gun at anybody, whether it is loaded or cot ; in short, don't be a fool." -The T. V. R. R. will probably extend their lines on down Spring Creek to where the Jamestown Lum ber Company are building a large mill and manufacturing establishment. This mill will be built on either Tract No. 3665 or 3667 neai the Howe town ship line in the eastern end of the county. There is an immense body of timber to be manufactured in that locality, and the mill now building will manufacture the lumber off about 300 acres, aud if the railroad be con structed to that part of the county there will be a still further develop met of that section and our resources. Our enterprising wagon and car riage maker Chas. Raisig, has recent ly turned out three new wagons which are beauties. Two of them are sold already but are still to bo seen at his factory, aud the third is liable to go at any time. Charlie is daily increas ing hi3 capacity for doing good work on short notice, and is bound not to be outdone by any manufacturer in tho country. His large factory is now over-run with work.yet he never allows a customer to wait a minute over time. lie is also pleased to have his work inspected, and extends an invi tation to all to drop in and look over bis shop. Thomas Howarth, one of the pioneer settlers of this section of conn try, died suddenly of heart disease on Friday last. He bad left his 'home at Howarth's Corners in the morning to visit a daughter Mrs. Shattuck, at Titusville. In the afternoon he started for home and had driven but a short dislanee, when he dropped dead in his carriage. Mr. Howarth was 74 years of age and was well known to the older class of our citi zens, among all of whom be always bore an honorable teputation, being ever highly eslecmed by his neighbors and acquaintances. He came to Am erica with his parents upward of 60 years ago, who settled on the firm occupied by him at the time of his death. A few weeks ago he celebra ted h'u golden wedding, and received the congratulations of a large gather ing of old friends. Of late he had been declining in healtb, yet was still quite rugged for one of his years. During his lifetime he amassed quite a fortune, aud while he left a will which is fair and satisfactory, tie in strument is not mado public. He eaves a widow and sit children four sons and ' twr daughters-jto mourn his loss. The .funeral took place last Sunday afternoon, and was attended by a very largo concourse of old friends' and neighbors. The 83d Re-Union. Next Tuesday will be a gala day n Tionesta. All arrangements for a grand, good time are being fast per fected and by Monday evening every thing will bo in readiness to receive the largest crowd of veteran soldiers and visitors that ever honored the town with their presence. From all parts come reports of largo delegations that expect to bo hero ou that day, and there is every reason to believe our town will bo crowded as it never was before, but the citizens will spare B3 pains to entertain and take care of their guests iu royal style. Ihe grounds have been tastefully fixed up, tables builtpcaker's stand erected aud seats ia abundance provided. We can see no reason why the reuti- on should not bo a complete success, unless the weather should be bad. We hope our citizens, one und all, will show their patriotism by a liberal display of flags and bunting. Let ev ery house be profusely decorated. And let all who want a good time come to Tionesta on next Tuesday. Excursion tickets over the B., N, Y. P. R, R. will be sold from Brad- ford and Oil City and all intermedi ate points, aod tickets will be good to return on the 19th. A special train will leave Irvineton at 10 a. m. for Tionesta. Returning, will leave Tionesta at 5 ia tho eveninc:. OIL NOTES. There is nothing of importance in oil matters to chronicle this week, no well having been struck worth mentioning since oilr last report. Balltown No. 11 was expected in this week, but owing to some trouble with the casing work oa it has been delaved. Grandin No. 13, on 5236, was ex pected in yesterday. It is located be tween No.t.6 and 8, and will doubtless bo a good well. The production of the Cooper tract last Friday was 3,118 barrels from 111 well. According to the Derrick the pro duction at Balltown on the same day was 3.290 barrels from 39 wells. Competent witnesses put the produc tion at nearer 5,000 barrels. The Beaver Valley well is down over 1800 feet and still drilling. How deep they intend going we have not learned. The fishing job at the Hunter well, near the depot is still occupying the attention of the drillers. Lineville Lines. Hon. J. W.
