Uncle John Kinnear, one of the Tippecanoe veterans of 1840, has been appointed postmaster at Trunkeyville, this county. We congratulate Uncle John, and only wish the plum bad been a bigger one. Artist W. A. Greaves came down from Warren last evening and deliv ered to P. M. Clark, Esq., an elegaDt portrait in oil, of the late Mrs. Clark. It is one of Mr. Greaves' best efforts, and certainly a most beautiful likeness. Mr. E. J.

Miss Maud Davis, who baa been home from West Chester, Pa., for several days, will, as soon as the ses sion begins, resume ber place at Chau tauqua where she has assisted in the musical department of the Assembly for the past two seasons. Grant Kemble, Herman & Big gins' efficient drug clerk, has severed his connection with that firm and ac cepted a similar position with a lead ing druggist of Titusville. Graot made lots of friends here, who will wish bim success in his new field. County Surveyor Wbittekia in forms us that the Fuel Supply Co., of Oil City, has struck a well on the Michael Henry farm, Pinegrove twp., which is believed to be good for 60 barrels. This well is located about 200 feet from the east line of the Wbittekin farm, and bids fair to make that a valuable piece of property, the prospects of which has the effect to make Hank smile out loud, and we don't blame bim. Fred. Morgan is up from Oil City catching bass, salmon and pike, which are just now biting furiously, but as Fred, uses a long pole and line, and keeps a safe distance back on the beach, his friends need have no con cern about his being bitten by these monsters. Geo. F. Kribbs has sold his in terest in the Clarion Democrat to Maj. John McMurray late of Brookville, who will hereafter be associated with Mr. Reed in the publication of that excellent journal. Both gentlemen have our best wishes for success in all but politics. A new "government buildiDg" is going up in Tionesta. Leastwise a building 18x24 is being erected on a part of Chas.

Hunter, for several weeks, accompanied him borne. The Meadville Semi-weekly Ga zelle, Co). Reisinger's paper, came out recently in a new form and very much improved. The Gazette is rapidly forging to the front under the Colonel's able management, we are pleased to note. The fact of tho matter is, brains are bound to tell iu any enterprise, and that's what's the matter in this case. The Tidioute New has this gentle hint to those who have friends visiting them and are a little lax about making the fact known : "This is our visiting season, going and coming. Those who have friends come that they are glad to see will of course use this column, to which they are welcome. Perhaps if visitors watch this column they may be able to judge whether they are welcome guests." Mr. Rudolph Strucken, with his family, took in the Thousand Island excursion on Thursday last, and if the prospects are favorable will locate permanently at Rochester, N. Y., his former home. We can recommend 'Dolph to the people of any section as one of the best mechanics in bis line, that of plasterer, aud should he con clude to settle there our best wishes for success go with him. According to an exchange two men are now victimizing the people in some of the country districts in this part of the State by representing themselves as agents of the Uoited Workingraeu'a Aid Society, and offer ing to insure a man for $1,000. By paying $200the insured are made to believe that they will receive $500 in ten daysr aud the balauce of the amount, $500, will be paid after death. "Bowraanville" is the name of a tkpstown situated on the branch of the P. & W. Railroad, and is the finest lumbering town along this line of rail road. It is owned by Messrs. W. W. & J. C.

Clarion County Na tional. On Thursday, June 27th, at Wheeler and Dusenbury's new mill in Watson Twp., the men in charge sawed that day 40,900 feet of lumber, log scale, Scriboer rule. The work was done on a single band saw, aud the logs were cut into ordinary boards and plank. The gang was: Frank Whitmore, bead sawyer; C.J.Stew art, setter, and John Polen, filer aud manager. This is the biggest day's sawing ever done in this "neck o' the woods." Tidioute News.

A correspondent at Lima, Ohio, sends us the following particulars of an accident which happened to Wm. Sibble, a former Forest county boy: On the 9ih iust., while working on the Maltby lease, shortly after dinner he had bis left baud badly mashed. He was turning off the band-wheel with a chisel to make it run true, and in some manner it caught oo a spike and jerked his band in between the wheel and rest. He was brought to town and taken to Dr. Vailes' office where the wounded member was given atteo tioo. The baud was found to be in bad shape, so that the second finger was taken off, and part of the bones removed from the first and third fingers. The back of the hand was badly cut and an artery severed, so that considerable blood was lost be fore the hand was dressed. He is do ing very well under the circumstances, and given good care by his wife, and is in hopes of being around soon. Yesterday, while a number of little boys were watching the opera lions of John Grubbs' new drilling rig, above Jamieson Station, one of the workmen turned on the steam to start the engine while Claude, the 10-year-old son of Samuel Campbell, was standing near the exhaust. The es caping steam struck the little fellow as he was turning to leave, scalding him very severely, though not serious ly about the left arm and back. He started for home, a distance of over two miles, and was in a great deal of agony when he arrived. Dr. Rum berger administered the proper reme dies, and soon had the boy feeling quite comfortable. Arrangements have been made for a successful campmeeting at Whig Hill, to commence July 23d. Among the prominent speakers will be Dr. I. C. Pershing, of Pittsburgh, Rev. R. P. Jervis, A. M., Coudersport, Prof. C. Riley with his troupe of experienced singers, will be with us during the season. The 4th quarterly meeting for the year will be held on the grounds July 27th and 28th.

R. Thompson, East Hick ory, Pa. On and after July 15th he will be on the grounds. We find this pleasant reference to our former townsman, Mr. F. E. Mabie, in the Erie Gazette of a recent date. All of Frank's large circle of friends in this section will be glad to hear of his success and rapid promotion : "Col. Cogswell, for several years in charge of the city work of the Acme Oil Co., of Erie, has gone to Boston to take charge of the sales department of the Tidewater Pipe Line Co., a larger field. The Colonel leaves witb the regret of numerous frieods. He will be succeeded by F. E. Mabie, an Erie boy, who has been with Rice, Robinson & Witherop, of Titusville, for four or five years. Mr. Mabie is thoroughly up in the oil busiuees and having a wide acquaintance in the city will be a valuable acquisition to the company." Warren Wrinkles. "Everything is quiet on the Poto mac." The Glorious Fourth passed off in a harmless and deafeniug racket. I fired off my two bunches of crackers and calmly munched my ginger bread while I watched the balloon which did not go up (as usual). The streets were crowded. The gay young fellow, hand in hand with his girl, wandered perspiring around trying to see the sights. The weather was fine and the merchants did a big business. Thus another red letter day takes its place among the things of the past. The face of the farmer now wears a complacent expression. The "fourth" ushered in a change of weather, and the bay mows are rapidly assuming that overflowing look so comforting to the beholder. The rye is being har vested and wheat is about ready to cut. It makes me sigh to see the farmer riding around on his reaper and biudcr which kicks off a bundle every rod or so, as I think of the many bard days work I have put in with a cradle. Don't mistake my meaning; we use a baby carriage. One of our neighbors purchased a drill this spring to put in corn for fodder. It works complete. He put in 18 acres in two days for himself and uearly enough for the neighbors to pay for the drill. He fs a bustler and makes farming pay. One might think that a town lighted by electricity would not need any illuminatiog oil, but we boast of three refineries, besides one at North Warren. They like to locate near this Tiona or amber oil. It makes good chewing gum. The Muir Refin iug Co. have just completed their plant with a capacity of 6000 bbls, a month. They will employ about 15 men wheu they are ruoning full capacity. I'm a little like Oliver DiUon, when unexpectedly called upon by some ladies to return thanks at dinner. It was a little out of his line aud rather than refuse he made the attempt, but when he was ready to close, he could not think of the proper form, so he finally said, "yours truly, O. Ditsoo." July 15. X. 50 Men Wanted, By the Tionesta Tanning Co., imme diately. Good wages, aud pay as often as desired. Report to C. A. Howe, Kcllottvillo, Forest county, l OBITUARY. Died Io Tionesta, Pa., July 15; 1889, Laura G., wife of R. W. Mer riara, aged 36 years, 4 months, and 2f days. Mrs. Merriam was the youngest daughter of Kowletter and Margaret Powef, and a grand-daughter of George Power, who Is said to have been the first permanent white settler in Vo nango county. She was reared io Franklin, where, In December, 1878, she was united in marriage with the husband who survives her. This union has always been a most happy and congenial one, and was blessed with the birth of five children, all of whom are living. The death of this most estimable woman is one of the saddest occur rences that has happened Io our com munity for many years. About six years ago Mr. Merriam engaged him self with an extensive firm in Ten nessee in the manufacture of staves, a business with which he was thoroughly conversant, and in which he command ed a good salary. By industry, fru gality and close attention to business he had won the confidence of his em ployers, and was doing more than well, when sickness overtook him, and after a struggle of nearly two years he was obliged to give up his situation and seek a climate more adapted to his constitution. He accordingly came north again, and shortly after located here about two years ago. The change did not, as be had hoped, bring with it an improvement, and his physical constitution has ever since been broken down. During all this time bis loving wife devoted herself so faithfully to bis care and comfort that she did not realize the strain with which she was taxing her nerves, until about five months ago, she was suddenly over taken by nervous prostration and had to take ber bed, which she was never again able to leave. Her phyeician, nevertheless, had strong hopes of her ultimate recovery, though necessarily slow and tedious, until about ten days ago, when she experienced a severe back-set, which her weakened consti tution was unable to withstand, and after much suffering she passed peace fully away Monday evening about 5 o clock. The deceased was a most exemplary woman, a consistent member of the Presbyterian Church, a true and de voted wife and loving mother. She seemed anxious to live and get well because she was so much needed io the care of her afflicted husband and little children, whose great grief seems un bearable. May He who doeth all things well, comfort the stricken husband and lather, and assiBt him to bear up under his great trial. Funeral services were held at 5 o'clock last evening at the residence, Rev. J. V. McAninch officiating, after which the interment took place in Riverside Cemetery. Queen City, Hickory Twp. The late rain did a great deal of damage here by tearing up the plauk road between this and Stowtown, also taking the bridge that crosses the creek here. It muBt have been a very cold bath to the young couple that fell off the foot log into the creek while trying to cross to go to Tidioute, the day after the fourth. Hal bal Mt. Normile spent a few days in Franklin this week. 'Mr. Jerry Adams has taken up his abode here; glad to welcome you among us, Jerry. Miss Hallie Tobey, and Miss Becca LafTerty, of Titusville, spent a few days here last week as the guoets of Mrs. Nettie Normile. Master Willie Normile, while play ing oo the bank of tho creek the other day, fell in and came very near being drowned. 1 he baok on which he was standing gave way, and bad it not beon for his Aunt Hattie, who was but a sboit distance from him, he would have been taken out iuto the stream, it being just below a dam aud the water of course was very swift. Mr. William Tobey aud wife visited his daughter, Mrs. N rmilo, this week. Miss Kate Andersou has just fiuish ed a very successful term of school here. X. Y. Z Red Brush Items. Most of the farmers io this section are ploughing down their corn and sowing the grouuuMa buckwheat. Mr. Addison Mealy started for Youogstown, Ohio, on July fourth, whero he intends to work for Alexan der Mealy, formerly a resideut of this county. Mr. Will Fuitt of Emlentoo, is vis iting friends in this locality. A couple of gentlemen in this vi cinity erected a dancing platform ex pecting to make a fortune. Proceeds for the first evening, twenty-five cents a piece. This so disgusted them that they toro it up the next moruing, and resolved not to build another till times were better. A social picnic was held in Andrew Wolfs grove on July 4th. About seventy five people assembled. A spTendid repast, consisting' of pies, cakes, and sweet-meats of all kind?, was served.

The Buektail Regimental re-union will be held at Phillipsbiirg, Conter county, on Wednesday and Thursday, August 21st and 22d. On the 6th Inst, at & p. m., the Court House bell of Cameron county was tolled 90 times, out o( respect for Hon. Simon Cameron, deceased. When this county was organized and called Cameron, the General donated tho same bell that tolled at the hour of his funeral. From the Oleau rime.- "A correspond ent Bays that on tho farm of George Clark, in Ashford, Is a spring, the waters of which divido, part of them running into a stream which empties into Lake Krio, on to Lake Ontario, and on through the SU Lawrence Rivor to the Atlantic Ocean, and the othor part runs into the Great Valley Creek, thence into the Allegheny Rivor to the Ohio, and Mississippi, and Anally into the Gulf of Mexico." The will of tho Into General Camoron has not yot been probated, but among its boquosts are said to be the following: Uarrisburg Hospital, $10,000; Harriaburg Home for the Friondless, f 10,000 ,- his li brary and f.",000 go to the Young Men's Christian Association. Mrs. Duffy, of Marietta, receives $5,000 in gratoful re membrance of hor uniform kindness to his son, Simon ; German Reformed Church, of MaytowD, Lancaster county t,'i,000 and a parsonage, and Lis servant, John Campbell, $2,000. The Clarion Jacksonian gives this bit of warning: "A bbrewd game was played on a few of our business men one day last week by a couple of sharpers. Thoir mode of proceed ore was this: One of the rogues would enter a store where they would no tice a lady attendant, and buy from hor a small amount of goods. In pav mont they would tender a five or ten dollar bill, re ceive their chango, and immediately leave the store. In the evening when the money In the drawer was counted it was discov ered tlmt the bills received from these strangers had been raised from a one dol lar bill to the amount for which they had beou passed. The bills raised are of tho Silver Certificate issue, and the raise was made by pasting a dark green figure 5 or 10, as the case might bo, and which were presumably cut from a rovenuo stamp, over the faco ol the figure 1 on the right hand side of the hill. Tho left hand side wus torn directly through the vignette, and was again put together by pasting a dark piece of munilla paer on the lack of the bill, and just big enough to cover the large figure 1 on that corner. Tho figure 1 on tho left hand corner of the back was orascd with ink, ami tho entire bill hail lieen rubbed and creased until it had a very aged appearance An expert would have easily detected the fraud, but it was a good Job, aud calculated to doceive any person iiiiucciiHUmiod to handling much money. The rogues succeeded in getting about $-0 from thoir victims, and got out of town before the crime was discovered. Our iieighlHiriug towns should bo on tho lookout for the chaps."
