As a rule, and the exception is rare, the temperature falls during the night and rises during the day. But this winter very often the reverse has been true, especially the rise of the temper ature during the night. Col. M. S. Quay was virtually elected U. S.. Senator at Harrisburg jesterfciy. In the Senate the vote stood 33 for Quay, and 14 for Wol verton, Democrat. In the House, Quay 132, Wol verton 65. The two branches of the legislature will ballot joiutly to day, when Col.

Clark's efforts for the success of the gas venture have been untiring, and his host of friends hope to see him quite recovered aud out among us at an early date. Major Uawkius of Bradford, is his successor The selection of Ex Lieut. Gov ernor Stone as Secretary of State in Governor Beaver's cabinet gives uni versal satisfaction, and -the western portion of the State feels doubly proud of the choice. It displays, right on the start, the wisdom with which the Dew Governor will conduct tbe affaiis of the administration for the next four years Sleighing parties seem to be to our village what toboggan is to towns elsewhere that seem to be troubled lo know how to utilize their bill sides, their spare change, aud their people who have pleuly of time.

A hundred and twenty-five horso power engine was taken through here Saturday, designed for use in tho re medied lumber mill at Nebraska; a new boiler of sufficient proportions to furnish steam for the engine will also be put in. It is not tbe intention, we believe, to discard the water power, but rather to add to it in this way. When in complete running order it will certainly not lack for power. One hundred thousand feet square timber is being put in below the mouth of Bear Creek from the lands of the new firm of Nebraska. Russell's ship a great deal of their boards by rail, hauling them tcrtheP. & W. R. R. They will put in at tbe mouth of Bear Creek, about 800,000 feet of boards which tbey will raft and run on Tio nesta Creek. The Nebraska firm will put in a large lot of logs at Bear Creek when they have done with the timber they are putting in there. A dispatch from Washington says the president was very much amused ou Monday to receive a letter address ed "His Excellency Hon. Grover Cleveland, President," upon "whicjf was indorsed: "President, Pennsylva nia. Not here at present; try Wash ington." It seems that the President Up the river was astutely thought to be the postoffice address of Hon. Gro ver Cleveland and there it was sent, only to be forwarded to Washington with the quaint endorsement of the postni88ter. Blizzard. The Plank Road school-bouse, which at the time the Dew one was built, at East Hickory, was moved across tbe road from where it stood, was burned a week ago last Saturday evening, it was owned and occupied by Mr. Nathan Burdick, by whom it bad been made1 into a comfortable dwelling house. When the fire was discovered il was under such headway that it could not be put out. Mr. Surdick's lost nearly all their house hold goods as well as nearly all their clothes. In fact, some of the members of the family barely escaped wilh their lives, we understand. Some level headed country news paper scribe propounds tho following sensible interrogatories: "Do your city papers give you borne news? Do they contain notices of your churches, schools, meetings, and improvements, and hundreds of other matters of in terest which the local' papers publish without pay? Do they say a word cal culated to draw attention to your lawn, and aid iu the progress and en. terprise of your immediate- vicinity? Answer these questions and then de termine for yourself whether ti e city or local paper is deserving of'your support first of all." A copy of the proposed pharmacy law adopted at the last meeting of the Pennsylvania Pharmaceutical associa tion hrs been tent to every druggist in the state. Uuder the law, should it be passed, no person shall open or carry on in the state any retail drug or chemical store a the proprietor and manager, nor engage in the business of compounding or dispensing medicines or prescriptions of physicians, or of selling at retail any drug?, chemicals, poivons, or medicines without having obtained a certificate of competency aud qualification to do so from the State Pharmaceutical Examining board aud having been registered.

Vosburp, a young man of Warren, Pa., and well known to maoy of our readers, died in tho lockup at Bradford on Wednesday night of last week, under strange circumstances. He left Warren on that evening in an intoxicated state. Arriving at Brad ford he visited a Chinese opium joint, and at intervals "hit the pipe," (an expression used by opium smokers) five times, and finally left the den in a much stupefied condition. About 11 o'clock he was picked up by an officer and taken to the lockup, after refusing to go to his hotel. About 7 o'clock the next morning he was found stone dead in his cell. One eye was blackened and some marks were no ticeable about the neck. The Brad ford coroner's jury pronounced it a visitation of God. His remains were forwarded to Warren where an autop sy was held, the result of which gives rise lo tbe belief that rough haudling had something to do with the young man's death, and an investigation is strongly talked of. The Chinaman who keeps the joint has beeu arrested, and the case bids fair to creato quite a sensatioD before it is ended. Peterson's Magazine for February is a very brilliant Dumber, with a fine steel-engraving, "On Guard, " that, we predict, will be popular with every body. There is also a beautiful doub le sized colored fashion-plate; then a superb colored pattern for a screen, a Japanese design of a stork, etc., etc.; and, -after that, some fifty other en gravings. Every family of refinement, we should think, would' have thin magazine on its table. Tbe price, real merit considered, is astonishingly low only two dollars a year with gieat deductions to clubs.

Republican : Your note of a recent te reminds me of a promise made you and also maoy of my friends in your county and vicinity, that I would write a let ter informing your readers and the friends aforesaid how I like jhe "Great Northwest." I will here aud now stop to remark that I have often thought of the promise I made and have only been waiting to be sure how I do like it myself, as I know that first impres sions of a Dew country are sometimes misleading andone should cot jump at conclusions too readily, but "go slow and learn to peddle," as it were, before one should publish his opinions of a new abiding place. In my expe rience of different sections and places in which I have lived every place has its advantages and disadvantages, do one is absolutely perfect and I will try in this short letter to give my ideas of this part of tbe country in both of the abov.e respects. I haven't invested In any real estate hero as yet, and it will be of no pecuniary interest for me to boom this state or this city, so you and your readers may expect the truth as far as I am able to give it without flattery or exaggeration. Now, as to the climate; we came here about the middle of July; when we left Pennsylvania it was warm and very dry; how long the dry spell continued there you all know better than I. When we passed through 'Ohio and eastern Indiana we found everything nearly burned up by the drouth, or it seemed so to us from the car windows. On.nearing Chieago things began to look more green and lifelike. Through Illinois there was also an improvement, and judging by the size and appear, ance of tbe vast fields of corn, the drouth was not so severe in that state. On reaching North Eastern Iowa it was about tbe same. Coming into this state by the Albert Lea R. R. we soon discovered a great chauge, every grow ing crop showed thrift and less effect of the drouth. Of course it was what was called a dry summer here, never theless there were occasional raiasand as far as I have learned crops were all large. I have I een out among the farmers once or twice during the fall and saw them harvesting the finest crops of potatoes aud corn I ever saw The wheat crop nf this state was also good. Thfre is some nf the finest soil for farming to be found anywhere and some not so good. Wherever there is much pine timber the soil is thioer, and poorer than where hard timber grows, or on tbe prairies, Speaking of the crops, this State ruised the last season 41 million bmhel of wheat, 25 million bushels of corn, 35 million bushels of oats, and over 7 million bushels of potatoes, 7 million bushels of barley aud over 60.000 bushel ol beans, enough of tbe latter to make several pots of Boston's favorite dish. Over 30,000,000 lbs. of butter, and 500,000 lbs. of cheese was also pro duced. So much for come of its agri- cultural products. Its lumberiup in dustries are also vast. I am not able to remember figures of last years cut but they are immense. As to this city it is one of tbe healthiest and one of the finest and most enterprising in the U. S. The lea ling papers now claim 165,000 population; 4,503 new build ings were erected the past year. The city valuation is now 102 million dol lars; 35 million bushels of wheat were received here during the past year, and over 6 million barrels of flour were manufacture) here. Th- real estate transfers aggregated over 38 million dollars, exceeding last year's sales by about 15 million dollars. The city is traversed by 61 miles of street railways and I haven't lived here long enough yet to find out hou- many rail roads enter and depart from the city, but they are quite numerous. I might go on aud give you figures in eodless profusion but dou't want to overdo the matter in that line for fear some of your numerous readers will get dis gusted and think I ought to call a bait. I will, however, let up for a few min utes and describe tbe climate. We had a beautiful, warm, sunny autumu ; do snow until the latter part of No vember, since which time we have bad the finest kiud of sleighing. There is probably a foot or mora of snow. The weather is nearly all the time clear and cold, but dry, so that one can staud a greater degree of cold than tbey cao in yoir ciioii without suf fering from it. Yesterday we received uotice of a cold wave coming aud sure enough it arrived ou time for it was 25 below zero this morning and at noon it was 15 below. We don't seem to feel it any worse than vie would at zero in Pcnn'a. We have ou an average about 9 out of 10 bright days of sunshine, so you see we do not have very maoy storms here. One or two good snow storms makes sleighing for all winter. Winter commenced earlier than common here this year and so far the season has been colder than on an average for many years. Business is Dot quite so lively in wio ter as iu tbe summer, yet a stranger on our principal business streets would think it could not be much livelier. Still only 20 years ago to day, a mail stopped at the only hotel in the town and having spoilt the troupers be bad on by su unlocky fall, he could not buy even a pair of those useful articles here but had to go into his room and stay there until he ould send a man to St. Paul to buy him a pair; at that time I judge it would take at least half a day to make the trip to tbat place whereas you can go there now in 20 minutes. I nui'ht to say tl at now there are over 5000 stores and busi ness houses here, where one can buy anything from a paper of pins to a 100 borse power engine. Our daily papers are unsurpassed by any in the large cities of tbe east ; the daily Tribune for to-day is an edition of 40 pages, profusely illustrated and filled to the brim with news, statistics and miscel laneous reading matter. The columns are 280 in number and if tbey were cut out and pasted together they would make a strirg over 500 feet long. They will print 150,000 c pies and to do so will consume 50 tons of while papbr. Great Caesar! Jake; just think what a pile like that would make ; how would you like to run off such an edition on n Washington hand press? This is a great city for church es ; there are over one hundred of all denominations, and they run in cost of construction from $5000 to tlT5,000. W. C. Coburn. (Concluded next week.) The Homeliest Man In Tloneota, As well as the handsomest, and others are invited to call on G. W.
