The people in the vicinity of Fryburg, Clarion county, were ahocked on Thursday night last te learn that Mrs. Joaepb Lauer, living on the road between Fryburg and Lineville, bad committed auicide by cutting her throat. Continued sickness in the family, tbe loss of much sleep and general breaking down of her mind, is assiened as the cause. She leaves a husband and five children. We have made arrangements with the Philadelphia Weekly Prets, where by we can send that excellent, 10-page journal, and the Republican to any new subscriber for 81.75. the two papeis at nearly tbe price of one, This advantage will also be given all old subscribers to our paper who pay up all arrearages, and one year advance, Sample copies can be seen at this office.

At tbia aeaaon of tbe year, when people are anxioua to keep egga fresh, both fur marketing and home use, tbe fullowiog ia aeasonable: "To one pint of salt and one pint of fresh lime add four gallons of boiling water. When cold put in stone jars. Then with a dish let down your fresh eggs luto it, tipping the dish after it fills with tbe liquid so they will roll out without cracking tbe shell, for if the shell is cracked the egg will spoil. Put the eggs in whenever you bave them fresh. Keep them covered iu a cool place. Mr. John Thomson of Stewarts Run, received last week from an old friend in Buffalo, N. Y., a full-bred Shropshire lamb, which is likely the finest in the county. It weighs two hundred and thirty pounds, has black face and legs, and ia aaid by all who have seen it to be a fioe looking Iamb. We hope to hear of more of tbia class of atock coming to, our county, which is particularly well adapted to sheep raising, and it is no more expensive nor difficult to raise first class stock than the second quality after it is once thoroughly introduced. -Jake Siggio is again laid up for repairs, lie was jun lorougn "rig ging up on a well near Warren on Monday, and the gas connections had just been made in tbe boiler, when he attempted to light it. Uuknown to him there was a defective valve which allowed tbe gas to escape, filling the fire box with the dangerous stuff, which exploded with considerable force, burning him severely, though not seriously, about tbe face and right band. If there ia any ill luck layiug around loose it seems bouod to tackle Jake. - Tbe rather difficult task of moving tbe large factory building of Scowden & Clark to its new location waa finish ed on Saturday evening last, although there ia considerable fixing yet to be done, and tbe boya will hardly be at work again at the forge and bench before the last of tbe week. Mr. Mc Caffrey, wbo had charge of work of moving the building, handled it so nicely that when the last pull waa made on Saturday night the buildiug stood aa squarely over its new found lion aa it could bave been built there in the first place. He has eeveral orders for moving building ia this vicinity in the Spring on the strength of tbe job be has just completed. A "citizen," writing from Hickory, arrives at this sensible conclusion in relation to a contemptible fling wbicb last week appeared in a correspond ence of the Derrick from that place "As far as our judgment goes tbe pop ularity of the Latin correspondent to the 'neighboring sheet' ia so far above that of tbe Derrick scribe that no comparison can be made. To the Derrick scribe we would say: Do not call in question the ability or learning of said Latin correspondent, aa he i well known, and it may not be to you interest to interfere. We can not write Latin, but in plain Eoclisb would say, if you atteod to your own busioess you will nave all you cso do. A two-cent stamp aent to L. W. Noyea, Chicago, will bring you a package of fine quaiity blotters.

The Noyes Holders are tbe only ones thus closely clasping tbe book. About 125,000 are now in use, and the later makes are so greatly improved indeed are so perfect that Mr. Noyes is sad because nothing more is desired or can be done in this di rection." Old and Interesting Papers. Through the kindness of our old ftftt friend, Benjamio May, Esq., of Nor ristown. Pa., we are in possession of the original title papers to the land now occupied by the borough of Tio nesta. The .first is tbe original patent or warrant granted by the Slate of Pennsylvania to Sholass Range, nod is written on the old style of parchment or sheep skin, and is a rare curiosity in its way. 1 he second document is the original deed from Sholasa Range to Lieut.

I am once more settled among stranger in a strange land, bnt I Bad It a very agreeable ehange from my former position In North Carolina, This section of the State Is known a Eastern Kentocky and is located on the Kentucky River, about five hundred miles from It confluence with the Ohio. The country Is all that can be required in its vast timber resources, and Immense coal deposit which extend for hundreds of miles North of this place. Tho country a far an I have been, is ex ceedingly rough and hilly. Oreat moun tain cxtond throughout the wholo of tins section of the State, which aro covered with ash, walnut, poplar and oak, all of the ttnost varieties. In this vicinity also is a large forent of white pine, amounting to some 300 million feel, according to nn estimate recently made by gentlemen from near your section. The poplar tim ber Is of a very fine growth and said to be equal in all respects to that of Tennessee The average yield per acre is twenty thousand feet, and in some sections of the country nn this river it will exceed Mint amount greatly. The oak timber In this county I not of good quality, but i very large and thrifty, but wilt not answer for stave on account of worms in the wood. Kor railroad uses it is said to be No. 1. n tho adjoining counties tho oak is of much finer quality and much largor growth. Walnut timber grows in the mountain to quite an extent and is very fine. It ia pronounced by buyers to be equal to Indiana walnut in finUh ond sir.es. The ash timber is not good but very largo. It Is generally defective, and quite brash, with very tittle "toughness" to it. The white pine that I mention is the only body of that class of limber I know of in this Slate. I can distinctly remember when this same body of timber was offered to my father and C'hapin Hall, of Warren, Pa., for the small sum of two dollar per acre, but they did not consider it of any value, even at (hat price in those days, and continued to cut and run lumber from the headwaters of the Allegheny to Louisville, Ky., and pay no regard to this timber, which is not over 1iO miles from that city, with as handsonio a river to lumber on as tlie rivers of Penn'a aro. Almost the whole of Eastern Kentucky ha been recently purchased by what is known as the Kentucky Union Land Co., a corporation representing many million of money, who are now bringing this timber and coal to the notice of the mar kets of the world. The company are building a standaid guage railroad from Lexington, Ky., to Jackson, on the Middle Fork of tbe Kentucky River in Breathitt County. This road is to be in operation by Jan. 1st, 1800. It Is now iu successful working order from Winchester, Ky., to Slado Station, fifteen mile East nf tho Kentucky River at this point. The Louis ville Northern R. R. are also running tlie I r line from Frankfort, Ky., up tho Kentucky River on tho opposite side from the Kentucky Union R. R., furnishing excellent facilities for the transportation of lumber and coal from these mountains, This company ate prospecting for oil and gas In tbia and adjoining counties, and are meeting with good success in obtaining both article. The Kentucky Union Land Co. are also engaged extensively in lum bering. In fact from observations I be lieve them to be as heavily engaged a any firm in the United States. Their mill ca paelty at Clay City is three hundred thousand feet per day, with corresponding dry kilns,- and is tho most complete estab lishment of the kind in the United States You will at once note from this, that the amount of teams and men required to keon this olenhant in operation amount to hundreds. "The log are flooded down the Red River to the mills, a distance av eraging 100 mile. The logs and timber from the Kentucky River, aro hoisted from the river by steam aud loaded on the cars and tent to Clay City by rail. I am instructed to ship eight hundred car per mouth of logs from this point for the first three months, and then lncrea) the amount to 50 cars per day. The booniAgo at this point la under construction and i to be 10 miles long, and is capable of hold ing logs in the highest water they ever have here. We are busy starting large camps along this river for 150 miles up, with an average crew of 50 men to aenmp. These camp are established every 10 miles through the first two counties. Above these counties the work is con tracted to two brother (native of Ky.,) who are to deliver to this boom fifty mil lion feet in two year. From this descrip tion, you can readily understand t. at lumbering 1 done in the South, as well as Northwest. I am well ploased with the country and the climate. I am in my usual health and feel that I was lucky to strike this section wheu I did, for the North Carolina fever, was getting ine considerably "rattled," and I was positive that I needod a change of climato. The forests are not abundant with game, some few bear, no deer; but wild turkeys, quail, and squirrels by-the-way, I suppose you know that I am good on squirrels, from what you have seen. The streams aro full ol buss, pike, and cat llsh, perch, A?. Tho soil is rich, although it is so inou'ituinous that no till ing ot tho laud is done here, except by the squatters. Wages for lalxir in the woods is less than iu Penn'a. The Canadian Province send in large forces of excellent men for this v oi k. Tho men in the mills are generally from Saganaw and Wiscon sin. I find my position here a more com plicated one than I had imagined liefore coming, but l still believe mat l am "master of the situation," and can now IsMie order lo tho train with a much "oclal" as tho oldest railroader. I will be phased to hear from you, and hope you are in the enjoyment f your usu.il ln-alih and contented mind. Vory Rbtj u li' illy, Rom i. vmi Conn. "The Road to Heaven." A Won- j derful Book.
