Not being present at the meeting of the
Members of the Agricultural Society, on
Saturday last, at this place, we are enable
to announce the names ot ihe newly chosen
officer, for (be ensuing year. The Secretary
hasn't famished us with the minutes.
Oil. The accounts from Venanzo and Ti
oga ciontie show a steady increase of (he
supply of oil and are very encouraging to
to 4 hose interested The production would
hive been greater if the fl od bad not caus
ed the damage it did.
W observe that part of the Larkawanna

-
Circtj Comino We would give notice

-- W'k Lsark that a new po-l office build
ing t about to be erected on the sooth west
; corner oi Market Square. We are in favor
of that enterprise. We have a post master
who eem disposed to be rather accom
modating ; and we should be pleased to
tee him take his office out of the little nar
row contracted place where it now remain.
It should never have been put where it is,
in the very sess-pool of roudyism, with an
advocete, in a silent way, ol "mob law and
violence" for Po.t Ma-ier, hot who now
claims to be a Uw-abidi'g citizen !'
Br referring to oar advertising columns
in this week's paper, it will be observed
that the Niw PjiOviMON Stohb has opened
is this place. The doora and shutters were
larowa open on Monday momina last, dis
splaying a large and elegant assortment cf
Groceries and Provisions. There is noth
iag used in a family but what can be par
chased a: this S'.ore, save dry-goods, at the
most reasonable figures, (or cash. All kinds
of wiUow-and cedar ware will be found at
ibia Store. Cash will be paid for egs.
See advertisement in another column.
Wc will send the Stir to eur old sub
scribers, as well as new ones, at a reduced
price of subscription per annum just as
aoon as we can afford to do so. As long as
paper remains at $7.50 per ream, 51.00
higher than ic 1862-3, we cannot possibly
lei cor paper oat at lower (ban our present
rates, if we desire to make an honest living.
We would like toroail our paper to all who
bate applied for it daring the past month
or more, at the old figures, bnt cannot do it.
Floor, Meat, Boiler and Eegs, will have to
lake a downward pitch before that will
happen. The slight decline in Merchan
dize is scarcely felt. One day it assnmes a
downward tendency, the next an upward
one, and so it goes.
THi-itnpressioa that the ''Green Creek
Petrolecm Company" baa been gotten op
far the benefit of a few icdividnals is a mis
take. They now have their Charter, and
are operating bpon tbe mutual plan.' Every
rnaa who subscribe and pays for cck be
comes a member. Every colter subscribed
to ba appropriated in dayeloping. As
aoon as tke Company succeeds they will
qoirsellirj stock. The cnsold stock is then
to be divided between every stockholder in
proportion & the number of shares he holds.
Tbas every stockholder will enjoy and re
ceive the tanefita and profi'.s jast in propor
tioa to tbe amount of slock he owns. This
ia certainly fair, asd ocbi to be aa iadoce
jr.eat tot all to sgtscrii.
Thk ScHodts in this place and vicinity are
being conducted by the following persons,
viz:
Prof. J. C. Hill, Mr. Childs, and Ms T.
Vannatter, in the Academy, on Third si.
Mrs. Am a R. Drake, at Ler Booms on
Main St.
Miss Leontra Lescher, in the basemeut of
the German Reformed Church.
Mr$. E. W. Wyncoop, at her residence on
Third st.
Miss Martha Wells , in the frame school
room opposite the American House.
Miss Kate Christ man, in the school hoose
near the Furnace, East Bioomsburg.
Mist Annia Freezt, at the Irondale school
house, North Bloomsborg.
M'ts Kale Weaver, in Sco:t Town, South
Bloomsborg. . ,
Miss Amanda Davis, in the brick school
house, on Welsh Hill.
The majority of these teachers have bad
considerable experience. These schools,
vre nederstand, are being well conducted.
It would seem that Horace Greeley, Wen
dell Philips, Ward Beecher, and that clan,
are the best friends the leaders ol the South
ern Confederacy have, just at preseot ; they
are crying at the top of their voices, for
leniency lor these rebel leaders, Davis, Lee
& Co. The old hypocrites, they know
very well that they have been the fault of
all this difficulty, causing this great loss ot
life and treasure, and now expect soon to
6ee a change in the administration of the
affairs of our Government, therefore wish
to make their peace with the Southern
leaders.

CHEAP FERTILIZERS.
THE Fertilizers prepared by the Agri
cultural Chemical Co., (a Company char
tered by the Legislature of Pennsylvania
with a capital of 8250,000,) have been
proved in practice to be the cheapest, most
profitable and best, lor tbe Farmer, Gar
dener and Fruit erower, of all concentarted
manures now offered in any maiket. . The
Coropanj's list embraces the following
PABULETTE.
This Fertilizer is composed ot night
soil and the lertilizirig agents of urine,
combined cheraicailj and mechanically
with other valuable lertilizitig agents and
absorbents.
It is reduced to a pulverulent condition ;
ready for immediate use, and without lo6
of its highly nitrogenous fertilizing proper
ties. lis universal applicability lo all crops
and soils, and its durability and active
qualities, are well known to be all that ag
riculturists can desire.
ciiemicaITcompost,
The Fertilizer is largely composed of
animal matter, such as meat, bone, fish,
leather, and wool, together with chemicals
ar.d inorganic fertilizers, which decompose
Ihe mass, and retain the nitrogenous ele
ments. It is s very valuable fertilizer for field
crops generally, and especially for potatoes
and garden purposes.
Its excellent qualities, strength and cheap
ness, have made it very popular with all
who h'ave ned it.
COMPOSITE FERTILIZER.
This higtily phosphate fertilizer is par
ticularly adapted fnr the cultivation of trees
Iruits, lawns and flowers. It will promote a
very vigorous and healthy growth ot v ood
fruit, and largely increase the quantity and
perfect the maturity cf the truit. For hot
bosp and household plants-and flowers it
will be found an indispensible article to se
cure their greatest perfection. It will pre
vent and cure di-eased conditions of the
peach and grape, and is excellent for grass
nd lawns.
It is composed of soch elements as make
it adapted to the growth of all kinds ol
crops in all kinds of soil.
The torrnnla or method of combining in
constituent fertilizing ingredients has re
ceived the hishest apprtrval of eminent
chemists and scientific agriculturists.
rnosniATE of lime.
The Agricultural Chemical Company
mancfactnr a I'hophate ol Lime in accor
dance wiih a new and valuable form n!j by
which a very superior article is produced,
as to be afforded at a less price than other
manufacturers charge. Practical tests have
proved that its value, as a fertilizer, is
equal to the bes' Phosphate of Lime in Jthe
market.

What Everybody Knows, viz:
That iron well galvanized will not rust.
That a simple machine i better than a
complicated one. That a Wringer shoold
be sell -adjusting, durable, and efficient.
That Thumb screws and Ftenin-i cause
dlay and trouble lo regulate and keep in
I order. That wood soaked in hot water
will swell, shrink and split. 1 hat wood
baring for the shall to run in will wear
out. That the Putnam Wringer, with or
without ?og wheels, will not tear ihe clot he.
That cog wheel regulators are not essen
tial. That the Pmnam Wriimer has all the
advantages, and not one of the dis?dvan
tages above named. That all who have
tested it, pronounce it the bst Wringer
ever made. That it will wrin-j a THREAD
or a BED QUILT without alteration.
We might fill the paper with testimoni
als, but insert only a tew to convince the
skeptical, if n-h there be; an. I we say 10
all, test Putnam' Wiinger. Test it ihor
ouihly with any and all others, a iJ if not
entirely sati-factory, return it.

Gentlemen 1 know from practical
experience that iron well galvanized with
zinc will not oxidize or rust one particle.
The Putnam Wringer is as near perfect a
possible, and I can cheerfully recommend
it io te the best in use.

It saves lime and it save9 wear and tear.
We earnestly advise all who have much

who may have any, to bny this Wringer.
It will pay lor itself in a year a. mH.
