by the I> L. A W. K. It., and occupied by a man

nanus of nets, or any other method than by shout

A fa Hit idea of the trials of a couut'y editor may
be gathered trim the following, which we clip from
an exchange: " A country editor is an individual
who reads newspapers, reads proofs, folds, mails pa
pers, prints jobs, runs errands, saws wood, works in
the garden, talks to all who call, rec ives blame fur
a hundred things which are no fault of his own,
works from 6 a. in. to 10 p. m .. and frequently gets
cheated out of half his earnings."
Coal 1 fade.—Railroad communication will soon
be openeJ between this coal field and Albany by the

hundred and twenty thousand dollars towards it,
and it is expected to be finished the coming summer
This will give as a continuous mil to Boston.
The great event in the trade is the union of the
Ilarleton coal interests with the Lehigh Valley Rail
road just consummated. It is not a purchase or
sale for ca.-h, but we understand an exchange of
stock, as was made between the Wilkes-Barre Coa|

Luzerne License I.aw.—We publish in an

Legislature, entitled " An Act for the farther pro
tection of the wholesale and retad merchants in the

excitement inside as well as outside of that county.
Its provisions are rather too stringent for the inter
ests of the consumer, ant we understand indignation
meetings are being beld to express tho opposition of
the people to so odious and unjust a law. It pro

and that is too much tbe kinl of protection the buz

Prevost, in the 91st year of his age.
The sul jeet of this notice was born in the city of 1
Paris. France, the 23i Jay of September, 1777. He [
left France in 13C0, and landed in New York. |
Shortly after he made the acquaintance of a Mr.
Dupont a" that tiuie the French consul at that Port. '
The Dupont family afterwards settled in the State
of Delaware—were largely engaged in the manu
facture of powder. Samuel F. Dupont, one of the
same family, afterwards became celebrated as a na
val officer—was engaged during the Rebellion in
many of the hard naval corslln ts. and lor meritorious
conJuit was promoted to the rank of Rear Admiral
He died soon after the close of the war. Mr. Pre
vost. before his marriage, lived in the family of Du
pe nt for abiut throe years. Ilis attention to busi
ness and faithfulness in all his relations created an
intimacy anJ esteem between them that continued
during life, manifested by uumerous letters and oth
er tokens of mutual regard.
In 1815 he connected himself by marriage to Ce
celia La Fevre, also a native of France, then tiring
at French Town on the Susquehanna. Soon after
his marriage, in the sum# year, be purchased lite
properly iu Washington on which he resided until
the time of bts death, with the exception of about
three years that he resided in the city of Philalel

largely engaged in the cultivation of flowers, a
branch of business he was pasionately fond of

married William Mix, Esq , and resides in Towanda,

one of them on the homestead.
Mr. Provost lived during an erentful period. Born
during the time of our Revolutionary struggle, our
cause was materially aided by his native govern
ment. Mien after our Revolution came on the
troubles in France, and that couutry went through
a series of changes that no human eye could foresee.
It was during these troublesome times that Mr. Pre
vost left France. The Prevost family had suffered
greatly on account of wars. Tho reign of terror and
the merciless conscription of tho fust Consul, deter
mined him to leave bis native country for a more
peaceful one. lie disliked war—was emphatically a
man of peace, conrted friendly relations with his
neighbors and peace with all. lie was strictly up
right in all his business relations, wanting his own

DR. JACKBOX— DxiR SIR :— I hare been frenuently re
quested to connect my name with recommendations of •
different kinds of medicines, but regarding the practice
as nist of my approjyriate sphere, I have in all casee de
stined; but with a clear proof in various instances, and
particularly in my own family, of the usefulness of Dr.
IlooflamCs German Bitters, 1 depart for once fmm my
usual course, to express my full conviction that for
general debility of the system, and especially for River
Complaint, it ts a safe sod valuable preparation. In
some cases it may fail; but usually, / doubt not, it will
be very bcntf'-ial to those scho suffer from the above
(OUU. lours, very respectfully,

take any thing else that he may say it just as good, be
cause he makes a larger profit on it. These Remedies
