The ice in the river at this point
broke and commenced moving yester
day evening about five o'clock. The
break-up was a very harmless one, and
could hardly be called more than a
big run of slush. The ice has not
gone out of the creek yet.
The band boys took a sleigbride
to Tylersburg last Saturday evening,
where they were hospitably received
by their "brothers of the blow-horn"

they can reciprocate the generosity of
the Tylersburg boys.
A number of our exchanges have
noted that constables elected at the
recent elections would hold over for
three years under a new act just passed.
So far as assessors are concerned this
is correct such an act was passed, but
as to constables we have seen nothing
definite, and have some doubts about
the accuracy of the surmises.

Shut Up Your Cattle. The Fence
Law Repealed.
Advices from Harrisburg convey
the intelligence that the fence law of
1700, which provided that fences, in
order to be legal, should be "burse
high, bull strong aud hog tight," was
repealed by a vote of 112 to 72, iu
the House on Wednesday of last week.
This means that people must now shut
up their cattle or abide by the conse
quences. This is pretty lough medi
cine fur our county, but there seems
to be nothing better than to grin and
bear it. There seems to be ooly oue
way out of the dilemma for our citi
zens: If every farmer and his neigh
bor, and bis neighbor's neighbor will
agree to continue the practice of fenc
ing agaiost cattle as heretofore, there
will be little trouble, aud the people
can keep stock just the same as for
merly, but if there is one kicker in the
lot it will spoil the whole, and all will
be obliged to keep their bovines and
"ich" peoued up.
But we will all know more about
"how the old thing works" a year or
two heoce.

Oil Notes.
The Dcrrkk'i oil report for the
month of February shows the number
of wells completed to be 283, or a do
crease of 6 from the previous mouth.
New production 2987 barrels; increase
187 barrels. Wells drilling and rigs

The Dawson heirs, near the station,
have not given up their well as a
duster yet, but have been driving it
down deeper during the past week,
and are now down over 390 feel. A
sample of the saod from the last bit
rua is pronounced by judges to be "all
right," and it wouldn't bo surprising
if it were.

GRAND JURY'S REPORT.
We, the Grand Jurors of Forest
county, present this our report : We
have acted on ten bills, eight true
bills, two not true bills. We have
visited the County buildings and
would recommend a protection to Jail
windows, We find them much ex
posed, and parties in communication
with prisoners at all hours. We
would also recommend walks to out
houses and jail from rear end of Court
House, and that spouting be repaired
on back end of Court House. We
find water following down Court
House, and freezing thereto, which
ought to be repaired and water con
ducted from building. We find that
road leading from Balltown to Porkey
is obstructed by ico gorges whenever
Ice breaks on Tionesta creek, and
renders road impassable from seven
to ten days, and prevents all commu
nication between places mentioned,
even to excluding of mail. Now, we
recommend your Honor to order the
Road Commissioners to vacate so
much of road as is so obstructed, and
move on higher ground to overcome
said obstruction, being from or about
Jialltown oil well No. 3, to Elias
Conway's, a distance of about one
hundred rods. We also recommend
that the Commissioners of Forest
county erect a true meridian line and
a standard measure for surveyors
chains on the public grounds, ac
cording to the act of April 2(5, 1850,
uccording to Purdons Digest, page
1700, see. 12.

Temperance Mass Meeting.
Two weeks ago, at the request of
friends of Prohibition, we announced
a meeting of those interested in the
Amendment for the purpose of organ-
zation and preparing a plan for united
work. At the fixed time the Court
House was pretty well filled with a
class of ladies and gentlemen who ap
peared pleased with the numbers as
well as the cause they were there to
advance.
Mr, George Watson of the Borough,
called the meeting to order by nomi
Dating Rev. C. C. Rumberger as
Chairman; following his election Mr.
J. II. Dingman and Dr. S. S. Towler
were chosen Secretaries. The Chair
man, as a delegate to the State Con
ventiou of the 19th iost., gave a
detailed account of its work and the
harmony and confidence with which its
members separated, to enter upon the
campaign fur "God and Home and
Native Land."
A motion by Dr. Towler was carried
that the chair appoiut a person or
persons from each township on perma
nent organization, which shall have
power to elect a chairman of the
County Committee. The chair ep-
poiuted Dr. S. S. Towler of Jeoks, E.
S. Collins of Green, Sye Neill of Har
mony, C. F. Gillespie of Kiugsley, E.
C. Maze of Barnett, Lewis Kiester
and T. J. Bowman of Hickory, Jos.
Grove and Geo. Watson of the Bor
ough, Wm. Hood of Tionesta twp., C.
W. Hawks of Howe. These gentle
men, after a short private deliberation
which grew somewhat tiresome to
those outside announcod their choice
to be Hon. E. L. Davis, Chairman;
Geo. Watson, Jos. Grove and A. B.
Kelly of the Borough, Rev. II. Rhodes
of Tionesta twp., C. W. Hawks of
Howe, W. J. Foreman and Guy Hil
liard of Hickory, Orion Biggins of
Harmony, C. F. Gillespie and D. B.
Toby of Kingsley, E. C. Maze and
Jas. Gray of Barnett, C. W. Amsler
and J. W. Kabl Jr., of Jenks, James
Gilfillan, F. E. Allison and T. D. Col
lins of Green, with power to add to
their numbers to equalize representa
tion. The organization of the evening
was unchanged. Rev. C. C. Rumber
ger was chosen Chairman of the Fi
nance Committee, with power to select
his associates A motion was made
by Mrs. Irwin that the chair appoint
a committee on resolutions to which
all resolutions shall be submitted with
out debate. Mesdames Irwin, Derick-
son aud Davis, and Messrs. James
Gilfillan, A.;M. Brooks and Eli Hole
man were named as such committee.
At this point Dr. Towler was called
tor and in bis nappy style delivered a
most interesting speech. The teudency
of his discourse was scientific and bis
argument and conclusions weie most
convincing. At 9:20 Hon. J. H.
Osmer of Franklin, began a 55 minute
talk, for which he had made no prep
aration before his arrival here, and
we are free to say the large audience
was neither weary nor inattentive,
but on the contrary, charmed with bis
logic and eloquence. At the conclu
sion of Mr. Osmer's speech the chair
man called for contributions, and did
it so well, keeping his hearets in good
humor by fitting illustrations, that tho
summing up of the subscriptions was
$301 50. That our temperance folks
enter the field very much encouraged
and with a most hopeful outlook, goes
without saying.
Fertig Items.
Sleighing has taken its departure.
The merchants of our village are
kept busy hauliug goods from Oil
City, aud busiuess is very good, taken
all io all.
Quite an excitement in drilling is
prevailing at Sandy Creek, about three
miles from here, aud touie good wells
are being struck.
Mr. McKei-ber is drilling a well
near J-ulina; we wish him success.
Mr. M. Deatrich came home from
Forest county, where be has been en
gaged in drilling, and reports business
good with an upward tendeucy. Mr.
Deatrich speaks well of Forest county,
and expects to go back io a few days.
Sickness is very prevalent iu this
vicinity, anil our physicians are kept
busy. Mr. R. McKusick, who has
lately entered upou tho practice, is
highly spoken of as a doctor.
Prof. Decker lectured to a largo
audieuce at the M. E Church on
"Modern IMucatiuu aud Habits." The
Prof, is uot very eloquent but his talk
was instructive, and was well taken by
some; and others, whuse vile and foul
habits were illuminated, prououoced
hi in no good. The Prof, informs us
that be was in partnership with Horace
Greely and is read in 7 languages.

OBITUARY.
Dikd In Cleveland, Ohio, at the
residence of her daughter Mrs. L. C
Monks, after an illness of six days,
Nancy, wife of Jacob Rohror. a
The subject of this notice was born
in Westmoreland Co., Pa., Oct. 20lh,
1815, but came with her husbaud at
an early day to this vicinity, settling
at Stewarts Ruu, where by persistent
industry they succeeded in making for
themselves a good home, eoduring
bravely the disadvantages known to
the early settlers. Some years ago
they removed to Viuelnnd, N. J., from
which place about a year ag tbey
came to Cleveland to spend their de
cliuing years with their daughters.
Her husband, six children, and a large
circle of relatives and friends, mourn
her loss. Mrs. Rohrer was from early
girlhood a consistent member of the
M. E. Church ; her uniform good tem
per, her kindness to all, and faithful
discharge of every duty enjoined upon
ber by the Master, whom she loved,
enabled her to die, as she lived, with
out an cucmy, leaving only the fra
grance of a kind and affectionate
remembrance, among her kindred and
