Dr. Jdrts says tne "Old Pharisee, on the j
other side of the river, as stopped his pa
per." We suppose the vDoctor will con
Aider him ;'ildyal after refusing to take the

We hear considerable complaint among
our farmers about the "potato rot.'' Some
have fears of losing their entire crops. It
may not be as bad as some would have o
believe. We hope it is not. It is possible
that there has been too much raia for the
.potato crop in this section.
How is it? By an amendment of the
SPost Office Laws, adnp'ed by the last Con
gress, the postage on drop-letters was fixed
al one cent, instead of two cents as the law
ihen stood, to lake effect on the 1st of July,
J 865. We believe the Bloomsborg Office
was not excluded from the operations of I
this amendment, although the functionary
here continues to exact tico cents postage on
overy drop-letter.
Several Furnaces .in this comity have
suspended operations. The MeKelvy Fur--nace,
al Ihis place, is undergoing repairs,
-and in all probability ' will soon s'art np
-again. Peter Ekt's Furnace, at Light
Street, is idle a! present. It is the calcula
tion to pet it in operation again as soon as
at can be got in order and the limes will
admit.
It is considered a terrible calamity for a
person to be "possessed of the Devil." - Bot
we noticed a nice little form dressed in wo
man's attire, passing through our town on
fanday morning last, in a "rig" driven by
the "Devil," and the female creature al
though apparently a captive of the ''Imp"
eemed to consider herself in no great dan
ger of destruction. She smiled and looked
winning while the Devil "laughed all over
his face" and presented quite a congenial
spirit. ' '
At last advices the Iron Work at Dan
ville remained idle ; the difficulty existing
'between the proprietors and bands seem
ingly as far from adjustment as ever. Both
paties claim the other to be in the fault ol
all the difficulty. It might be claimed that
those usurpers and tyrants sitting at Wash
ington city were the proper persons to fix
the blame upon, but then that would be
"opposing the Government" which in the
eyes of Shoddy would be high treason !
Dr. Jon a has fallen out with his ancient
and venerable friend from over the river
the Old Pharisee. To help this alongy the
Doctor has been trying to oust Isaac out of
office) and has not yet succeeded. They
both claim to be loyal to the core and should
not be guilty ol getting up such an interest
ing family quarrel over a few "loaves and
fishes. It is said, though, lhaMhe Doctor
gave vp the Post Office with fair prospects
ot getting to be Assessor i How sad must
he feel over his disappointment !
A Filtht Practice. We have fieqnenlly
beard complaints about certain young men
(or who call themselves young men; mak
ing a practice of sitting on benches and door
aiups, on Main Street, in the earlier part of
the evening, and squirting their fUihy tobacco

He was one of the ablest men and soundest
Democrats in the Senate last Winter.
' Peaches. This luscious fruit seems to be
scarce in this neighborhood. What there is
sells at a high price, S3 per bushel. While
they are so high here, we notice in the
Philadelphia papers that peaches are selling
there as low as fifty cents a bushel. Peach
orchards in this section, don't seem to thrive
of Idle years. Danville Intelligencer.
Now is the Time. Few persons are
aware o! the fact that in canning tomatoes,
they should select the earliest brought to
market- They are vastly fcoperior to those
of late growth, can be kept longer, and pro
duce more abundantly. Although the prices
are somewhat higher than they will be in a
few weeks hereater, the tomatoes now of
ferred will prove cheaper in the end than
those purchased late in the season. House
keepers would do well to beed this advice.
Mr. Abuah HE8sof Sugarloaf township,
Columbiacontity, arrived home last week
from Fort Mifiiin, where be had been con
fined for some time. He was released by
order of the President, and permitted to re
turn to his family. Several others (Clark
Veats and Cyrus Lamb) have been released
and sent home. These men were convicted
of we know not what by a drum-head court
martial fixed np f'r that purpose. Thus the
victims of Lincoln' administration are al
most daily, from all parts of the country,
being relieved from further torture and im
prisonment. Theliberties of the people
seem to be returning and they may ever
feel grateful.
It does not look to us as if the Republi
can party in this county have much sympa
thy or feeling for the poor soldier. Now
that the war has been ended, by severe
fighting and hard marches, performed by
our brave soldiers, and many of the bronz-d
and worn down veterans have returned
home, why do not these loyal Republican
Assessors, Tax-gatheres, and Post Masters
at once vacate their offices, and thus dem
oriftrate their friendship to the soldier in a
more substantial way. They have long
preached their dear friendship to the care
worn veteran soldiers, but never yet have
given us any practical demonstration of
their sympathies, towards them. They now
have an excellent chance to make some
display of this kind. There are returned
soldiers in this place who have fought, bled,
and nearly died, say nothing about the
suffering, who are entirely worthy and justly
entitled to these government positions.
Who will step out first 1 The example
woulc be a noble one. These men would
fill either position, Post Master or Assessor,
with signal ability. There need be no (ears
on that ground We could name dozens
who would fill these places with as much
ability and honesty as the present incum
bers. The name of the man who shot his son
and another man (as mentioned in our last
week's Unon) is 8. E. Burns. The shot
wa aimed al Jacob Bryant, who, it is said,
was about taking away some ol Burns' fur
nature; when a quarrel arose, and Burns
fired the pistol at Bryant, taking effect in
his arm, and the ball glancing, struck Burns'
son (a boy of about fifteen) in the eye,
killing him instantly. Bryant's arm was
amputated, and Burns is in jail. Luzerne
Union.
On Friday last a Jury, selected for the pur
pose of appraising a certain tract of land,
situate in Jackson township, belonging to
the estate of James Ralston, deceased, pro
ceeded to the tract to perform their duty.
The Jury, composed of Messrs. L B Ru
pert, John K. Grotz, Peter Biilmeyer, Joseph
Sharpless, Wm. B. Koons, Michael F. Ey
erly, A M. Rupert, Robert C. Fruit, John
Pursel, David Lowenberg, Jesse Coleman,
and the Senior editor of this paper, accom
panied by Samuel Snyder, Sheriff, Rubt. F.
Clark, Eq-, and Joeepo RaI?ton, all of this
place, arrived on the ground after a weari
some ride of twenty odd mites, about 12 M.
We immediately proceeded to provide our
horses with water and oats. This dene, the
party-selected the shades of a large hem
lock, ander which all hands bivouaceJ, par
taking of a most excellently prepared dinner.
After satisfying the appetite, a stroll over
the land, some 200 acres, was deemed nec
esaary, in order that a more just valuation
might be arrived at. At about half past 1
o'clock P. M. the horses were reined up,
and all started od our homeward way, strik
ing out in the direction of Little Green
Creek," where the oil works are situated.
Arrived at the Petroleum works about 4
o'clock P. M found everything in Working
order the engine puffing and blowing, and
the Superintendent, Ekos Jacobt in good
spirits, full of hope, and sanguine of striking
a paying well. The Indications and signs
of oil discovered throagh the operations of
boring continue flattering. We examined
some of the surface indications, and must
confess, though our prejudices run the other
way, that there are strong evidences of Pe
troleum on Little Green Creek. -.
We were informed that visitors are daily
flocking to that place from ail section.", both
far and near.
Our townsman, Mr. Gilmore, has estab
lished an eating and drinking saloon on the
ground, which is quite a Convenience to
persona who visit that place from a d is
lance, and are desirous of "a little some
thing to eat and drink."
The party arrived home about half past 6
o'clock, with ont the least accident happen
ing, all feeling somewhat tired, after a jaunt
of forty odd miles, over rough and billy
roads.
On Saturday morning the Jory proceeded
to the Farm along the river, near town, be
longing to the same estate, and examined
the lands. - After which they returned to
the office of Mr. Clark and made op .their
report, as follows: The land in Jackson
township, 230 acres, unimproved, lightly
timbered, S3 75 jer acre. .The river Farm,
S77.C3 per aers. -
