We bad quite a good run of sleigh ing during the latter part of last week in this section. It was a feast for the hunters also, and many a poor deer was called upon to give up this world of tribulations. Tom Ilassey took a lively ride up Elm .street Monday morning. 1 1 is team of blacks came near get ting the better of him, but by hard see sawing on the lines Tom managed to Btop them damageless. Wm. Y. Siggins Las our thanks for a bundle of celery, which upon trial we find to be most delicious, crisp and finely flavored, as good as any of foreign importation. Mr. S. has something like 2000 stocks of this same celery for sale at a very moder ute price, and all lovers of the "yaib" should give him a call. J. T. HIIBNNAN. Chas Raisig wishes to inform the public that he bag secured the ser vices of a first-class horse-shoer, one who baa made it a rtudy and under stands the cure of diseased feet.

Dithridge and will shortly add a com plete line of stationery ami fancy ar ticles. John is a deserving young man aod we bespeak for him a good share of public patronage when once he gets under way. The celebrated Government land suit, involving the ownership of the James Gordon farm near West Hick ory, was decided in the U. S. Circuit Court at Pittsburg on Monday. This suit has been pending for several years, John Sliuey of Corry, Pa., being the defendant and having possession of the property. The jury brought in a ver dict for the government. Vennor Bays of the weather that tbe fore part of December will proba bly continue cold and may Jead many to look for an early setting in of the winter '83 -'84, but as in 1875, all will be open again during tha latter part of tbe mouth and tbe close of the year 1883. Toe year will go out and the new year enter with but little or no 6uow, even in the northern sectious. This morning the team of pouics belonging to Hon. J. B. Agoew took fright in front of the Rural House and ran away. Mr. Agnew, who had just got into the wagon, was thrown out and had his face and his right hand considerably bruised. The team ran up Elm St., down Walnut an! across the river bridge, being stopped a few rods below the depot. No dam age done to tbe team or vehicle. Surveyor Whittekin with a gang of engineers has been operating be tween Garfield and tbe country, south of that place, but the exact lo cation of his explorations is not yet known. It is rumored that the Gar field aud Cherry Grove Railroad is about to extend its line down Beaver and Hickory creeks, crossing the river and connecting with the B., N. Y. & R. R., and that Mr. Whittekin and bis corps of assistants are making tbe preliminary survey. One of our sensible excanges thus sensibly remarks: There can cot be too much said about the prop riety of patronizing home indus tries and supporting home trade. We are now enjoying a revival in all branches of business, and the way f maintain it, is lopatroniza home trade. Dou't lend your patronage to neigh boring towns, and cripple our own trade, and cause another lull in bus iness circles. Youjcan purchase goods just as'chesp at home as abroad, then why not patronize your own town. "Written for You," tbe finest work of tbe kind ever issued in Amer ica. Not only is i! beautiful in ap pearance but roost valuable iq con tents highly entertaining and instruct ive as well as improving and purify ing to the mind. The Flower Depart ment is also an important additiqn to the value of the book. Enough flowers to adorn a home are described with the history and accurate engraved illustration of each, with instructions in regard to their care and propaga tion. This is profitable aud welcome knowledge to evory household. Mrs. L. C. Simpson, is now canvassing our town for this work. Peterson's Magazine for Decem ber is, as usual, ahead of all the lady's books. Spieodid as this magazine has been in the pust, the present num ber quite outstrips itself. There are two superb steel-plates; a colored pattern, costlier even than a chromo ; a colored fashion, double cize, printed from steel ; and more than half a hun dred wood-cuts of fashions, work ta ble patterns, etc., etc. The prise is but two dollars a year to single sub scribers.

M. lr win of the Franklin Vrets, hitches up along side the sanc tum stove and delivers himself as fol lows: "We are to have a mild, open winter, with a great deal of warm rain, and bnt little frost." Tbe busks on the corn are remarkably this this season mask rats have plastered their burrows hardly any just a little, to keep their neighbors from talking; spiders continue to spin their webs, and bavn't thought of going into win ter quarters ; the hair on the hogs is unwontedly sparse, and cats are ob served washing their faces back of tha ears ; large numbers of people have not bought new overcoats, and women are purchasing sealskin sac ques very largely. As the early and remarkably searching blizzard comes waltzing down from Nova Zembla, and the snow-laden blast tears howl ing through street aud alley, it is pleasant to sit by the cozy fire and read about these infallible signs of a mild winter. Our exchanges are fill ed with such paragraphs, instigated by the old hunters, old observers and old frauds who will continue to mon key with the weather as long as there are fools to encourage them in it. OIL NOTES. Porcupine Oil Co.'s No. 12 on 3,184 was due yesterday. Its location is so far north as to make its chances off a large well or a dry bole about equal. It is near the ffest line of the belt and the wells here either start of largely or amount to nothing, s sharply does the prolific sand end. No. 12 is far enough inside the lines, however, to warrant its being a good well, some thing like Howe fourteen. There are now three drilling wells in the Ball town district and one new rig. There are other rigs up, but none that will be drilled for some time, if this win ter. On the Funk lands south of Ball town, the Uoiou Oil Company have completed a rig and have machinery on the ground, but have not yet got the drill started. The Hunter well near the depot was torpedoed last Wednesday afternoon. This well was drilled a trifle over 1400 feet deep. At a depth of 1360 a sand closely resembling tbe Bradford arti cle was struck and drilled through, there being about 40 feet of it. Af ter the shot was put in the well eject ed considerable salt water and some slate, from which it is supposed the terpedo was not down far eneugh. The well has some oil in it now, but not enough to pay for pumping we believe. There is also sufficient gas to make a good light. We hear it said the owners will put another shot iu, but have nothing definite on that point. L. II. Simpssn, representing a syn dicate known as the Windsor Oil Cempany of New York, arrived in town yesterday and will lease up land throughout the county for the purpose of sinking a large number of wells. We learn be has already secured sev eral thousand acres of territory for some pf which a bonus has been paid. The company is said to represent over five hundred thousand dollars in hard cash and evidently means business, and the present indications are that Forest county will receive the most thorough test it has ever experienced. A Card. I wish through the columns of tbe Republican to deny tbe statement that I signed a paper agreeing to sup port the Prohibition ticket. It has been charged by those whom I had reason to expect better of that in voting the Republican ticket I broke my pledge, and I wish to say that such is not the case aud my conscience is perfectly easy in the matter. I never agreed to vote the Prohibition ticket, ButI meau to stick to the grand old Re publican ship until she goes to pieces, aud then I will grasp one of the planks and shout "Freedom !" I am sorry to think that some of my pretended friends are tryiug to draw custam away from me and ruin my busiuess because I would not desert my party and vote to suit them. Supposing they should Bucceed in their attempt, am sure that God has a great green earth and that He has promised to take care of His children while on that earth. Geo. Henderson.

I understand Miss Fannie Siggins of West Hickory was the first lady who crossed tbe bridge, but it will not be long now before wo can all go over, dizzy heads as well as strong nerved people. The main event of the week just past was the lecture in the M. E. Church Wednesday evening by Rev. Marc. Emory, Pastor of the Congre gational Church at Sugar Grove. Jlia subject was "The Dignity of Labor." For fifty minutes he held tbeatteotion of a large and appreciative audienee, as be whirled the globe of history - be fore the minds of his hearers, proving that in tbe past as in the present the most celebrated men have come from a country where labor is dignified. Not to the southern climes, where fruit and grain grow spontaneously and no fear of winter prompts the jBteady toil of summer, do we look for our great est leaders, but in those climes -.and countries where it is work, work, work, from morn till close of day, we find the most eminent statesmen, philoso phers, philanthropists, and the great est aggregate of thinking minds. -To be something, to do something in life; this was the silver thread that ran through and brightened up his dis course. With, sparkling story aod well told incident Mr. Emory at tracted the attention of any wander ing mind, but the Bpirit of the lecture served to instruct as well as amuse, and there should be more effort in this progressive age to impress upon our youth the diguity of labor. At the close of tbe lecture Mr. Frank Wheeler favored-the. audience with several songs, and so ended the first lecture of the season, 'though we hope not the last. The Free Methodists commenced their Quarterly Meeting Friday eve ning; preaching Saturday night by Rev. Mr. Beutly, on Sunday morning by Rev. Michael, also celebration of the Lord's Supper ; closing at night with a sermon by Rev. McGerry. The meetings were well attended, and we hope have helped mauy onward in tbe right way. , School begins in both rooms this week, aud we are glad to welcome Miss Cox and Miss Leech again in our midst. But our letter has already exceeded the patience of tbe good editor, so an revoir. HickorV. Nov. 19, 1883. Barnptt Notes, Oh, the snow ! the beautiful snow ! I The hunters they come, and the deer must go. We have solved tha mystery' of the Ohio election. The reason the State went bo Democratic is because all. the able bodied Republicans bad left the State and were waiting around the edge of Forest county for the deer season to opeu. A gentleman living at Marienvllle met with a severe accident while bunt ing.' In shooting his gun, a Winches ter rifle, the lock was blown out, tbe hammer btriking him on the ' forehead inflicting a severe if not dangerous wound. It appears that the Winches ter Co. manufacture only for use with their rifle a center fire cartridge. The cartridge used was of another make aod rim fire. This is tbe explanation given. William Wallace Jr. met a big buck in tbe woods, and after wound ing him the buck gave William battle. Harry Warner happened around in time to interfere before William was used up. Bear seem to be plenty. The road from Clarington to But touwood along tbe creek bas been completed and is now opeu to travel. Our mails have been changed.
