We need about $75 to purchase stoves, chandelier, and scats, the feats that bm in being only1 (temporary ones ; we expect to get this-amount without much trouble as people seem, so far to be interested and want to help us, for which we are very .thankful, and if any one has anything they wish to give us we will receive it gladly, and promise to use it to the best of' our ability to the glory of God, for the welfare of mankind." OIL NOTES. There is nothing especially new to report from the upper country except the striking of Howe No. 13, which made 90 barrels the first hour. After it had declined some it was drilled four feet deeper into the sand and responded by putting 112 barrels in the tank the next hour. This was on Tbuisday last. The next gushers that are expected in are Howe No. 10 and Grandiu No. 16. Tbe former may reach the sand any moment, while the latter will probably tbe .finished to-morrow or next day. The latest gauge of the Balltown district shows a production of 4,851 barrels from 57 wells. Thisjwas ou Friday last. That of the Cooper district was 3,623 barrels from 125 wells. The Hunter well near the depot at this place expected to reach the sand this week, but they have now another fishing job on hand, which will proba bly delay them a good share of tbe week.

R. boys of Capt. Stow Post, and a number of the citizens of Tionesta, left this ancient burg about 5 o'clock a. m., Oct. 10th. Arrived at Tylersburg at half past eight, where tbey bad been promised a special train to convey them to the pleasant town of Clarion, which is situated on a hill on the west side of the Clarion river ; but ou arriving at the depot were in formed by the agent of the Little Road that he had received no instruc tions concerning tbe special train, and so things began to look rather blue. By request tbe agent telegraphed aud found that the Train Dispatcher had received no orders as to a special. Then the G. A. R. was called and a "cauncil of peace" held, at which it was decided that we proceed by pri vate conveyance. At this juncture a report came to the Commander of the Brigade that theie had been a sharp skirmish with tbe advance guard and one man badly wounded. The Commauder, as is his wont, proceeded directly to the scene of conflict, where he found one of the soldier boys knelt and trying to stop tbe "Elixr of life" which was flowing from a hole at his side. After stopping the flow there was a "rally on the colors," and we were informed that the proceedings at Clarion would be held over until our arrival. Ihen, as some time had been lost in caring for the crippled soldier, it was decided to wait and take the regular train which arrived about 11, o'clock. . After' lively skirmish in which pocket-books were used for bullets, we boarded tbe trait about a hundred strong. The cars were filled so there was not standing room, say .nothing about seats, and so your correspondent took him to a pigeon hole in the , post office in the haggnge car. . But, Oh, horror! the train started, and the first thing he knew he was nut on the floor ; the car was rolling from side to Bide and he could hardly keep his feet. Making, his way through the ladies' car he saw that many of the countenances had changed from pleasure tj fright, and they were holding on for dear life. Passing into the gentlemen's car he found the Sergeant Major, the Junior Guard and several comrades holding to the bars and hooks, doubtless think, iog of their wives and children and wishing they were homo. But as they saw their Commander was not fright ened they took courage, and a smile took the place of a countenance on which a moment before was depicted instant death. As you all known, where the Commander thowi no fear, even though he may be quaking in his boots, the rank and file take courage. Well, well, welll We finally got to the splendid town of Clarion, where we were met by a delegation of citizens. Headed by our drum corps, (for be it rembered we have a martial band that can't be beat, and where we go they go, as the darkey wife said directly after the battle of Hanover Court Houde, in the days of nur unpleasant ness, when the darkies flocked in by the thousands: "Bill, you go, I go too!" and we are proud of the boys, for a more gentlemanly set you would have to go far to find), we proceeded up the street, turned to the left and marched nearly through the town, when we turned to the right aud then to the right again and up two flights of stairs and found ourselves where? in the Clarion Armory! where the tables were spread with pork, beans and hard tack, bread and butter and delicious coffee. We were invited to take hold and help ourselves, which we did with a will, and in a very few moments you would have thought there was a famine thereabouts; but theCla rion boys.observicg that the boys of tbe forest had not forgotten the times that tried men's souls, and especially the stomach, came climbing up the stairs with a fresh supply of the necessaries of life, and soon they I mean the bummers from Forest county began to "let up," aud with a smile turn away in evident satisfaction. The assembly being sounded wo formed in line and marchel to tbe Fair Grounds, formed in a hollow square around the speakers' stand and listened to several addresses, after which we were dis missed and allowed the free use of the grounds. I then took in the whole Fair, which to my notion was a very creditable one indeed, and of which the managers may well feel proud. Any attempt at enumerating the many exhibits would be folly, and would occupy too much of your space. Noth ing strouger than birch beer and lem onade to drink, with plenty of oysters, pie, cake, bam sandwiches and taffy candy to eat. At about 5 o'clock the fair closed for the day. After skirmish ing around the town for some time we ran aflnul of a soldier friend who said his preference was always for the soldier and through him we got a bed and supper. At 6 o'clock a. m., Oct. 11, we were aroused from our slumbers by the Junior Vice Commander, who is always on time and ready for duty, who reported, "breakfast; be ready to leave at 7 o'clock, sharp." After in terviewing the Quartermaster we ate a hearty breakfast, paid our dollar and at 7:39 proceeded on our journey home, where we arrived safely about 12 ra., after having enjoyed ourselves hugely.

We take pleasure in announcing that wa 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 $1.75 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 price, at which we place it. ;Trj it. It is a monthly publication. .' MARRIED. ' ANPER.satfPAWWN--At' ih resi dence of Hon. E., t.
