WM. MoCREERY, V. P. a CAMPBELL.
ISAIAH DICKEY, a PRESTON
P. a MoKLBOY, IVM. MEANS.'
TO LETS for balk at this office.
Fire on Thursday Night.
About twelve o’clock on Thursday night
Ore was discovered in the second story of a
building near the mouth of Decatur street, on
Liberty, owned by Mr. James Mills, a grocer
in the Diamond, The onginea were on the
ground as early as possible, and the firemen
worked nobly, but their efforts oould not save
the building, which was completely gutted.
The drat floor of tbe building was occupied by
Mr. Ohas. Peterson, as a flour and feed store;
his whole stock was destroyed, involving a
loss of sl,ooo—covered by insurance. Mr
Mills had some groceries stored on the second
floor, which were all destroyed. Mr. M’s loss,
Including the building, is about s2,ooo—on
which he has an insurance of $l,OOO in the
Cumberland Valley. Samuel Springer’s black
smith shop, in the rear, was damaged to the
extent of about $6O. J. Kafforty’s grocery
store, on Liberty street, was injured to tbe
amount of $lOO. The roof of Hays & Stew
art’s tannery, adjoining the burnod bui'ding
was burned off—loss about $5OO, with full
insurance.
Oil Keceuts— Tho receipts of oil from up
the Allegheny river, yesterday, amounted to
nearly TOO brrrols. 350 barrels, from the
Economite wells, near Tidfoute, arrived by
Jceel and flatboate. The Venango came down
from Franklin Id the afternoon, bringing down
something like 330 barrels from the wells in
that vicinity. As tho various shipments had
not been entered up when the boat arrived,
late In the afternoon, we are unable to give a
list of the quantity from each well.
—We have since learned of tho following
lots, brought by the Venango: 81 barrels
from Phillips, Frew & Co; consigned to Jas.
M’Oully. 90 barrels from the Eoonomy well,
at Tidiouio; consigned to Wm. P. Baum. 15
barrels from the Sewickley well; consigned to
Fleming Bros. 12 barrels from Heyarick &
Co.’s well, Franklin, consigned to Jno. Floyd
& Co. 1
The Leolaire was to leave foi; Franklin last
evening. She had on board a large number of
empty barrels, several engines and boilers,
quantities of rope, and even several thousand
brick, which are in great demand. The Echo
goes out to-day with a eimMar load, including
a quantity of lumber. This last shipment
looks very much like “carying coals to New
castle.”
The Manufacture of Ice.— This is a sub.
joct which possesses less Interest at the present
time than it will have, let us hope, a few months
later. Neverthelesa.a very ingenious discovery,
by M. Carro, of a method of obtaining it, by a
simple process, in the hottest summer, deserves
attention. He takes two strong Iron bottles,
connected together with an iron pipe, and
nearly fills one with a concentrated solution of
ammoniacal gas in water. After connecting
the bottles together, and making the joints se
cure, the ono containing the ammonia is put
over a fire, whilst the other dips into water.
The action of heat upon the ammonia drives
off the gas, which, not boing able' to escape,
condenses under the enormous pressure in the
other bottle as a liquid. When this is effected,
the bottle is removed from the Are and. cooled,
whereupon the ammonia in the second vessel
rapidly arsumes a gaseous form, and abstracts
so much hoat from the water by which it is
surrounded as to freeze a considerable quanti
ty. The operation may bo repeated without
disconnecting the retorts, until a sufficient
amount of water is frozen. Ice made in this
way is said not to cost more than ten cents a
hundred weight.
Reward Offered.—A reward of $25 ha*
been offered for the recovery of the body of
of Mr. R. Breeden, who wv drowned near
i* ranklin last week. He had $6OO Borne
valuable papers on his person. The deceased
was about five feet ten or eleven inches in
height, and weighed from 155 to 105 pounds
He wore at the time of bis death heavy dark
brown whiskers, mixed with grey, and was
slightly bald on the top of his head. His nose
was prominent, and be had a scar between the
eyebrows. The clothes which he had on at
tho time' were a brown cassimere coat, dark
grey cassimere vest, buttoned close to the
throat, and brown or grey pants. He wore a
breastpin with Masonic emblems, and had on
light boots. Information should be sent, if
the body ie found, to Davis Mitchell, Prospect,
Butler county.
Almost a Collision.— On Tuesday after*
noon last, the mail train on the Cleveland &
Pittsburgh Railroad, being detained by one oi
the trucks of the tender getting off the track
some oilee below New Brighton, was almost
run into by the express going West, at a point
opposite Beaver. The express was approach
ing the Btalion at the rate of forty miles an
hour, but Mr. Johnson, the agent, a pro*
sentimont that there was danger ahead, and
flagged the approaching train just in time to
prevent what under other circumstances would
have been a frightful catastrophe. The trains
were not more than one hundred yards apart
when the express pulled up.
We have repeatedly spoken of Dr. Yon
Moschziskor’s skill as an oculist and aurist, as
testified by the moat prominent citizens of our
country, kb well as by the most influential edi
tors of the press. Now that we have daily
augmenting proof from our own citizens, ex
pressing their admiration and astonishment of
his wonderful ability, we feel it to be our duty
to call the attention of those suffering from
afflictions of the eye and ear, to the Dr.’s ad
vertisement, from which it will be seen that
after the first of next month he will not accept
any patients requiring protracted treatment,
and we would strongly advise them not to lose
this favorable opportunity, and call on the Dr.
immediately.

ed. The building should contain a good lock
up, which, owing to the filthiness and bad
ventilation of the present one, has become an
absolute necessity.

THE MAYFIELD MYSTERY,
FROM TUK A’OTE-BOOK 0 V AN' ENGLISH .JUDGE
Tho extraordinary events which under the
above title,l shall detail to my readers,require
no preface.
In the pretty, and even now romantically
situated vicinage of Hampstead, proceeding
further north than theold suburban village with
all its well-known associations was a country
house, that went somewhat oddly by tho name
of Mayfield.
This house stood very nearly on the brow of
a hill, and commanded a charming view over
many miles of highly cultivated country. It
was surrounded by a very small kind of half
park, half garden, and the persons residing in
it rented a field of about twelve acres close to
their home, from which oach summer a tolera
ble stack of sweet, tine hay was procured, to
the great delight of a couple of ponies who lux
uriated upon it.
The owners and occupiers of Mayfield wero
an old couple of tho name of Cattloy. They
had an only son, an adventurous, but fine spir
ited and good hearted boy, who to the great
grief of Mr. Cattley, and to tho greater grief
still of his wife—if loud and tearful demonstra
tions portrayed greater grief—was fully impres
sed with Shakspeare's idea that
“Home keeping youths have ever homely witn.”
So ho determined upon seeing something of tho
world befuro he settled duwn, cither in town
♦r in country, to the enj'-yment of tho very
handsome income which would in iheoourso of
nature be his.
There was a long struggle with parental
fondness before the consent ut tho father and
mother could bo procured to Edward Cattley'a
departure to tho Mauritius.
Those Islands, which we wresteJ from the
French, but which retain so much of their
French character engrailed upon tho nearly
tropical manners and custom* uf tho real island
race, ever had for Edward Cattley an attrao
tion that, at somo period or other of his life,
was sure to drag him to their verdant shores
And so, by dint of pors •verancc, Edward
fairly started for the Isles of boaiity with the
consent of his parents.
The young man was nineteen years of ag<\
and he made a su!*-mn promise that ho would,
under any circumstances, not be more than
three years away from homo.
And so he departed, aud a gloom fell upon
tho old house at home. It was not until ho
was gone past recall that the old couple began
to feei bow completely bound up in his exist
ence, and even in his presence, their lives
wero.
But days lengthod into weeks, and wooks ac
cumulated into months, and months became a
year, and tho time of tho return of the wan
derer was approaching, and when half his pe
riod of absence had passed away, it was to Mr.
and Mrs Cattley as if some dreary night was
flitting by, and the first slroak of dawn was
mantling the east
dTwo years of tho three were gone. A letter
bad come from Edward, stating that be was
well and happy, and that tho dear thoughts of
home were still with him, and that ho would
be back in the three years that wero passing
away
Then tho last winter that was to pass over
Mayfield House before tho expected return
came, and tho loud storm-wind howled about
the old gabio ends of the place, and the snow
lay deep on the ground.
It was a fearful night, when several of the
old trees about tbe house were laid prostrate by
a galo that at sunset had sprung up from the
northwest, that a loud knocking at the outer
door of Mayfield House, just as the old couple
were about retiring to rest, disturbed the
whole household, and brought many fears to
tho hearts of tho anxious father and mother.
There wero some tlvo or Bix servants kept in
tho house, for the means of the Cattleys were
much greater than their style of living ap
peared to indicate: and as old Mr. Cattley
went half way from th<j _diuiiig room, whero
they had been sitting to tho hall, ho heard
some one questioning the old butler, who had
hurried alter the footman, whose duty it was
to open the door.
“ Is this Mayfield House? M asked a strange
voice.
“ Yes, sir, " was tho reply.
“ And is Mr. Cattley within ? 1
“ Yes, sir. ”
“ Wi.l you say, then, that Mr. Sl George,
from tbe Isle of Bourbon, is anxious to see
aim ? ”
How, old Mr Cattley knew perfectly well
tbatjthe Isle of Bourboo was the old French
name that ono of the islands of tne Mauritius
went by ; and, the moment bo heard tho mea
sago given, ho felt certain he was about to
hour something of his boy.
But what wuuld that something be ?
Would it bo disastrous or joyful ? That was
tho question; and ft was a question which
paled tho cheek ut Mr. Cattley, and sot his
heart beating at a mo*l unusual rate.
Mrs. Cattloy, ton, had heard, while she stood
at the upon door of the dining-room, sufficient
of what tho visitor said, to feel that it had
some connection with her arm, and sho ran out
of tho hall, crying uut, “ nh, sir, sir! whoev
er and whatever you are, toll mo at once,
what you know about my son I “
“Allis well with Edward Cattley, " said
tho stranger.
Hoilhor tho father nor tho mother noticed
tho peculiarly strange aud solemn way in
which tho stranger uttered these words, but
they both exclaimed together, “Thank God!
thank God! Welcome sir, welcome to May
held with such news. Come in, sir—come ini ”
Old Mr. Cattley almost dragged the stranger
into the well-warmed, well-lighted dining,
room ; and then they saw that ho was a slight
made young ma*i, ot about twenty years of
age, and thal'vhere was a peculiarity of com
plexion about him, which, ll it did not stamp
him at once as a crooto, at least signitied that
be had black blood in bis veins.
lie had the vivacious oyes of the creole race,
and tho dark olive complexion, but his hair
and tho shape of his head and features were
decidedly .European.
"My dear si-, pray sit down," said Mr. Cat-
lley. "You shall sup. Nay, you have probe
bly not dined yet—what say you'.' What shall
we order for you? ’
"Nothing, kind friends, nothing for me,"
replied Mr, Bt. UoOrgo, as ho warmed himself.
"My heart is too heavy to permit me to par
,ake of your hospitality.”
“Your heart heavy?” gasped Mr. t'attley.
‘•Good Heavens!” cried the mother ; “ {hen
is ill news you bring,”
The young strangor shook his head.
Mrs. Cattley burst into tears.
Mr. Cattloy strovo to speak in tonos of tlrm
nets, as ho claspod his hands together, and
said, “For the love of Heavon, sir, tell us all,
for suspense is tho worst agonv the heart can
suffer."
The young man was silont fir a few mo
ments, and then, with a doep sigh, ho said, "It
would bo affeotation and folly for mo to keep
from you tho information 1 havo oomo so many
miles to impart to you. Your son" - J
•Speak ! oh, speak I"
‘My son, my son!" screamed Mrs. Cattloy,
‘Your son is no more.”
1 will not try to paint tho grief of tho moth
er ; there are leelings too sacred for the pen to
picture. It was a terriblo convulsion of des
pair—a storm of sorrow that might well leave
the heart wrecked by its blighting progress.
The father paced the room, and wrung his
hands and moaned. 6
“My boy 1 my boy ! my poor boy ! Dead—
dead—dead!” .
Then he paused before Mr. Si. George, as he
said, with a glance of hope in his eyes “Are
you sure, sir, or is it surmise only?” ’
“I will toll you all, sir, and you shall judge
for yourßelf.” J 6
“Oh, yes, yes, tell me all—every particular."
The mother strove to listen witn dry eyes,
but she could not.
“I am afraid,” said Mr. St. George, “that
the bearer of unwelcome tidings makes himself
unwelcome by a sort of identification with
them ; and if such be the case with me, I will
leave your bouse so soon as I have told you all
I have to tell."
“Oh, no, no, no,” said Mr. Cattley ; “we
are not so uDjust as that; but we implore you
to tell us at once." J
“I will Ed ward Cattley was much boioved
in the island of Bourbon,' and received into the
best society in the place; but he had the mis
fortune to meet at a ball, which was given by
a merchant named Antonjus, a Greek, with a
It' V
yk'
Ifea-V^jfe
man of the nnrno of Petrus, a creole. This man
was a gambler, and he much pressed young
Cattley to call upon him the next day ; and
be not knowing who and what Petrus was, did
call upon him, and was pressed to play, thero
being several persons present. For a long
time Edward steadily refused, and the party
dined and sat rather late, when cards and djee
were again introduced; and as Edward Cattley
saw that he gave great offence by not playing,
he said, ‘I will, for once, forego my resolution
not to play ; but only for once!* M
“God bless him!” moaned the father.
“Then/' continued Mr. St. George, “ho
agreed that no would play for one hour, but at
Ibo ond of that time, whether a winner or a
loser, ho would leave the party. He played
for the hour, and was a considerable winner ”
“Alat! alas! ” sighed Mr. Cattley.
“A considerable winner, he rose from the
table with his watch in bis hand, saying; “I
will now, as I said I would, go.” But Petrus
was chagrined at hia losses, which, being an
adventurer, he could ill afford; and he loudly
insisted that no man had a right to leave off a
winner until his antagonist choose."
“But my son had made a declaration of the
time he meant to** play, before either winnmg
or losing/’ said Mr. Cattley.
“.Just so. That was his agreement, aDd he
left the bouse, but bo was followed by Petrus.”
“Oh, Heaven 1”
“He was followed by Petrus. There wa3 a
lonely path by a precipice, which Edward
Cattley would have to take in order to roach
his own home. The precipice sunk down to
an inland pool of salt water, which was un*
fathornablo. It is supposed tohayesome com*
murdeation with tho sea, but it has never yet
been traced.”
“My surd My son!” screamed Mrs. Caltley.
“Goon sir/’ said the father.
“Petrus attacked young Mr. Cattley at the
edge of tho precipice, and taking him at una
wares, hu Hung him ovor its brink, to rise no
The father and mother looked petrified at
this recital, but could not say a word.
Air. rtt. Georg i continued:
“1 was much attached to .Edward Oattloy,
and wo wore such good friends that X would
myself have arrested Petrus, but be lied, and
left so soon as he had done the deed. I caro*
fully examined the spot of tho disaster, and
guessed what had happened. I dived into the
pool twice to see if 1 could recover the body
of my friend, but all in vain. Were Ito live,
though for a thousand years, I should never
forget tho hideouß monsters of the sea that
inhabit that pool, and who with their long
fibrous arms strove to grasp me as I sunk Into
Its depths."
The young stranger shuddered, as if in re
colletcion of tho terrors he bad braved In the
horrid pool.
_ Wonder, fear, grief, despair—all were de
picted on the countenance of the Cattley's; and
it was late in the night before they, with
heavy hearts and with tears that seemed as if
they would know no cessation, sought peace
The young stranger was accommodated with
the best room m the house; and soon, beyond
the sobs that might have bedb heard from the
chamber in the occupation of the Oattleys, all
was still at Mayfield for that night.
Tho morning came, bnt it brought with its
returning^light no diminution of the grief of
the Oattleys. On the contrary, they seemed to
suffer more and more, until in tho course of
about a week their dejeation had reached a
kind of climax, after which the healing effects
of time b gan to exorcise an influence. A
month—two months—six months passed away,
and tho Cattleys had somewhat recovered from
their grief,
To be sure that six months had aged them
both more than the previous six years had
done; and Mrs. Cattley was ever ready with
her tears whenever by any accident her son
was mentioned ; but it was to be hoped that
further time would “heal tho wound, although
it could hot obliterate the rcsrr"
And during all this time Mr. St George
remained the guest of the Cattleys.
They let him occupy the room that had been,
their son’s ; and as often as he offered to go
they pressed him to remain. 6 ’
ile was kind and amiable in the extreme.
To the old gentleman he was like an attached
and most considerate son; and to Mrs. Cattley
ho was so gentle and affectionate that she felt a
degree of affection for hkn that grew stronger
day by day. °
At length he announced that he “must go.”
“You will understand, Mr. Cattley," ho
said, “and you too, dear madam, thatl was in
a situation at the Island of Bourbon, which I
gave up to come to you with my sad Informa
tion. The Money I had I spent in coming
here, and it is now my duty to seek for some
employment.”
Mr CalUey exchanged glances with his wife,
and she nodded to him. It was evident that
they had an understanding about something,
and what that was became evident in Mr. Cat
tley’s next words.
“Mr. St. George, ’’ he said, “wo have talked
and thought this matter over, and we have
something to say to you which we hope will be
agreeable to you. We have no son now”
Mrs. Cattley began to cry.
“No Son now," added Mr. Cattley; “but
yon were the friend of our lost ono. You have
been With us long enough now to know us,
and wok Low you to be as good and kind as
our lust Edward. What we havo to propose
to you is that you should stay with us and take
his place in our affections, and bocome, as he
would have become, the beir to our fortunes
and to our lovo. Think of this, and believe
lhat if .you say yes, we shall be well pleased.”
Mr. St Goorgo could not conceal the sparkle
of his dark eyes, as he listened to this spoech
from Mr. Cattley, who fancied he was such a
jud-o of human nature, and he replied at once,
“Sir, and you, too, dear madam, believe lhat I
want words in which to express my gratitude.
Wliat shall 1 say, but, lhat with feelings which
1 cannot express, I accept your offer."
And so all was concluded, and Mr. Sk
George, late of tho Island of Bourbon, became
the adopted son of Mr. and Mrs. Cattlev. of
lho old couple heaped benefits upon this son
of tbeir adoption, and seemed never tired of
gratifying every possible wish he could have;
amt SO twelve months passed away since that
night of storm and grief,when Mr. St. George
first arrived at the bouse on the hill. °
The Christmas time was close at hand, and
Mrs. Cattley had resolved to try to smother
her still ever present grief for the loss of her
son, and to make the house look as cheerful as
possible. Some ten or twelvo guests from Lon
don—old triends, with a troop of joyous chil
dren, of tho Cattleys—had promised to pass
the Christmas week at Mayfield.
The 21st of December came, and with it
some of that mild, out of-the-way weather,
which, in our capricious elimato, will occasion,
■tally make May look like December andDe
comber like Hay.
It was positively a day of sunshine.
The bee-hives at the door of the lodge, by
the avenue that led up to the house of the
Cbattleys, seemed as if they would warm into
life dormant tenants. The evergreens that
grew by the porch put on their brightest
green; and, for tho few hours that the pleasant
sunshine lasted, you might have walked out in
the open air and fancied the sweet spring-time
was coming.
It was nearly four o’clock, and the shadows
were lengthening as that brief winter’s day,
with its unusual fineness, was about to pass
away, when man, leading by the bri
dle a horse from which be had just dismounted
applied for admission at the lodge.
A young girl, the niece of the lodge~keajfe
er’s wife, who .>ifad only been there about a
year, and nothing about Edward
Cattley personally, appeared at the door, and
looked with a smile at the young stranger and
his horse.
“I want to know,” said the young
“how Mr. and Mrs. Cattley are ?”
There was a thickness—a kind of huskinesa
in his voice, which bespoke much emotion
and he listened eagerly for the girl’s reply. ’
"Oh, they are quite well, sir,” she said,
well ?”
“Yes, sir; and so is Mr. Pierre, their son.”
“Mr. Pierre, their Bon ?” said the young'
man, with snoh a look of surprise that thtf
yonng girl laughed again. “Pierre, their son?
My good and pretty girl, what do yon mean ?
They have noTon named Pierre.*'
