Lt . Taylor, of the far famed McHenry
to Partake of a complimentary supper
oclock in the evetieg. and all who
treaent unite in pronouncing it
tf the moat bountiful and drlighiful
as they ever participated in. The
tables were literally loaded down with every
seasonable luxury that the palate could de
sire —game, fruits, nuts and sweet meats--
the wailire were prompt and obliging, and
there was that spirit of geuuiue hospitality
withsl which makes a mail feel at home in

gratitintion upon• his Mind. Mr. Taylor's
reputation as a first-class landlord, and
genial, liberal minded Wan, is by no meats
limited, but it will net be the fault of the
editorial fraternity present upon this °env.
Bien if it does not hereafter become vastly
more widely extended. Mr. James G. Clark,
the poet vocalist, was in attendance during
the entire preceeding3, and added much to
their interest by the charms of his rich and
well cultivat d voice.
In brief, (lest we should extend that article
bryon•l its appropriate limits,) we were
pleased with everything—pleased with the
liberality and sociability of the Meadville.
people—pleased with our own personal treat
ment at the bards of Mr. Grayson, of the
Democrat,and his estimable hidy, whose guest
we were—pleased with the highly respectable
character of the association—pleased with
the action it
,adopted—pleased with ourself
for oeing in attendance ;-tind we shall look
forward to the next meeting in Cleveland, on
the first Thursday. of June next, with an
anxious interest such as we have rarely felt.
Tug Bnamiso Watx.—Tne burning well,
says the Reno Times, twelve ' miler below
Franklin. on the Allegheny, still attracts a
good deal of attention. • It continues to burn
with unabated fury, lighting up the conn , ry
for many miles. Each night its brilliance is
noticed at Franklin, Rene, Oil City, Clarion,
and all the neighboring towns.' 'The steady
heat which it produces has caused singular
effects in its immediate vicinity. At the die:
tance where the terrperature is suitable, a
circ'e of green and beautiful grass has rapidly
grown up, and is now from two to four inches
high. Some hickory trees, standing within
range, have commenced budding out in all the
luxuriance of summer. 'The scene is one of
the most ma7nificent, sail at the same time
most interesting which can be conceived The
well is owned by parties at Rochester, N. Y.,
and 1 , 1,13 strtek some four years ago. It com
menced flowing oil and water with a very
strong force of gas, and the owners were
confident they hail got a good welt, bat several
weeks ago, while the workmen were at supper,
the well took flre 7 —it was supposed from the
engine —and has been burning ever since.—
The flame, when first discovered, was coming
out of the driving pipe, and was not more than
three or four feet in diameter, but, after burn
ing two or three days, the driving pipe was
melted off two or threefeet, and thus allowing
the gas and oil to separate before reaching
the top, spread over the surface thirty or forty
feet square. It his burned ever since with
no cessation. Sometimes the flames will reach
to a height of one hundred feet, and enlivening
the trees which crown the summits of the sue.
rounding hills, and the reflections against the
sky produce an effect which no pen can des•
cribe or pencil do justice to.
REDUCTION OT TAXES.—An important bill
has just passed both branches of our State
Legi.lattue, repea'ing the act which taxes
real estate in the Commonwealth twenty five
cents per hundred dollars for State purposes.
The special act imposing , an additional tax of
five cents on the hundred dollars would est)
have been repealed, had the proceeds not been
specially hypothecated for the payment of a
loan of three millions due by the State. This
was held to be a contract which good faith
with our creditors proteOted, and hence this
tax was allowed to rettain. But the repeal
of the first act is an important matter for the
holders of real estate at this time, when taxes
are pressing heavily upon them.
The attm which the, lax payers of the North•
west will save by the passage *of this bill in
the amount of their taxes, is as follows :
Erie $11,480, Crawford $10,350, Warren . s3,-
852, Elk $2,433, Venango $4,040. The deficit
made in the revenue of the State by this re
duction in the amount received from taxation
will Fe more than met and covered by the
provisions of the new finance bill just passed,
which prOposes to tax bank stocks and the
gross receipts of certain corporations. The
amount received from these sources, added to
that realized for licenses and through the
various other channels by which revenue
reaches the State Treasury, will, it is claimed,
pay the interest and current expenses of the
Conlaonw?alth, and besides,altow the authori
ties ti annually liquidate a certain per cent.
of the State debt. Thole are oheering indi.
cations, and they will hive a wholesome in•
fluence upon the prosperity of the State.
POLITICS IN CRAWFORD COUNTY:—The Re
publican Committee of Crawford. county met
at Meadville on the 13th, and after a stormy
eession, selected two renegade Democrats to
represent them in the State Convention.—
Among other resolutions adopted was one of
denunciation against Senator Cowaa, charging
him with Copperheadiem, and handing him
over to the tender mercies of Democrats, in
whose company. he , will unquestionably feel
more at home than with the men who elected
him. The following is all the reference to
the President which we find in the published
•
proceedings :
Resolved, That in our judgment the policy'
of the general Government should fully coo=
form to those high principles of freedom and
franchise inaugurated and foreshadowed by
the political administration of Mr. Lincoln
and that we emphatically condemn and repu
diate the affected patrillism of the Copper
head party of the North, in their eleventh,
hour espousal of a Republican administration.
in the hope that Andrew Johnson will betray
the alteri.hed hopes and expectations of the
Republican party.
The coolness of these Crawford county Re
publicans is peculiarly refreshing. They have.
not the courage to either endorse or denounce
Mr. Johnson, but condenin the Copperheads
for doing -"bat they dare not do—giving his
policy an outspoken support. It is evident
that the party of " great moral ideas " down
that way is not in the most blissful condition
imaginable.
It the Crawford county Radicals aro net
more coniageous than those of Erie, they are
in one reapeot haat a little mire honest.
They boldly announce and speak of them
selves as Republicans, and do not seek to
conceal their party identity under the mask
of Union, like their -political allies here on
the Lake shore.
DONATION.—TherP will be a donation for
the benefit of Rev. T. D Blin, at the Parson
age in Wegleyville, on•the afternoon and eve—
ning of Tuesday, the 27th inst. A general
attendance is respectfully solicited.
By order of the Executive Committee.

that Artemus Ward "never by word or deed
signified his synaptxtby .ist. the Unien cause,"
that to the personal knowledge of its editor
he gave three lectures its Cooper Institute,

It doubts the truth of the story now circulat

gave a benefit lecture in New Orleans for the
family of Jefferson Davis. The Herald is a
Republican paper.
,We are gratified to learn that the members
of our County Agricultural Sicie!y are mak
ing an active effort to secure the bolding of
the next State Fair at this city. - In order to
succeed, it is necessary that the sum of $l5OO
be raised, which it is proposed to secure by
obtaining one hundred and fifty life members
at $lO apiece. The advantage of having the
next State Fair here is too apparent to need
argumeat, and it seems to us that there should
be no difficulty in obtaining the required sum
to induce its location at our city.
In a note from * Mr. Scofield to the editor of

find occasion to soon change his mind upon
the subject of their opinions. We run no

every five men in the district are opposed to
giving negroes the right to the ballot.
A hill has passed the House at Harrisburg,
and will come up• for consideration in the
Senate next week, which authorizes the Pt ii
afielphia & Erie railroad to "survey, locate
and construct one or more branches of rail

the main line of their road to any point or
points in any county through's or iu which the
sail, line imam or in any adjoining county,
wither view to the development of theterri
tory within said limits ; Provided, The con.
strtotion of the road shall be commeneed
within two years thereafter, and be completed
within Sve,years." We presume the main
object of this bill to be to permit the Phila.
& Erie railroad to construct branches into
such parts of the oil region, and into the coal
fields of Elk and Jefferson counties, as the
company may deetk conducive to its into
rests.
, Messrs. Whitlden & Gegen, agents for the

which for neatness and convenience have no

opened " on Tuesday evening, when a num
ber of gentlemen participated in the enjoy
meats of the evening, and a good time all
around was had. The enterprising hosts,
with a forethought truly commendable, had
laid in an ample supply of the good things
essential to such an occasion, and the rapidity
with which they disappeared was the best
proof of their quality. A unanimous vote•
of everybody present decided that Messrs.
W. & G. are capital fellows, and deserving of
all the encouragement that' the public, osn

We announced, seine time 'ego, the ostab
lishment of the Citizen. a new paper, at Em
porium, Cameron county. The paper was
started by a oonple young n•en, who agreed
that it should not be political in character,
but solely a representative of the business
interests cf that section. Only a few copies
were printed . until it was converted into a
rampant Radical organ, and it soon became
one of the meanest journals of its class. The
history of the paper, front its inception to its
demise, a few weeks ago, is thus pathetically
recounted by the McKean Miner, a Repnbli
can journal:
The bigness men Not only'in Emporium,
but all over the county, tilled its columns with
their advertisements at the publisher's rates.
More job work was given to the office than
could be done, or at least was done, and every
effort was made on the part of the people to
make the office a paying one. But how did
the young men who controlled the office ap
preciate such generoeity By proving false
to every principle of honor and decency. They
neglected their business by spending their
time in billiard saloon's and drinking plumes,
end took advantage.of the kindness extended
to them by borrowing all the money they
eciptid of their friends, running la debt to
dery man who would trust them with goods
or board, and then sneaked front the county
like the guiltiest criminals. They better a !vie
show themselves again in Cameron county for
they could look for nothing but harsh treat •
meat from a community they have so grossly
outraged.

The Late Giles Sanford.
The Sanforde were originally from_Massa
chusette, but being Quakers, were, in 1630,
driven out of Plymouth Colony by the Puri—
tans, on account of their religious creed, and,
like scores of others, took refuge in Rhode
Island, then called Providence Plantations,
where they were safe from their persecutors.
Giles Sanford was born on the 18th Sept.,
1783, at what was then known as "Norwich
Farms," now as "Franklin," New London
Co ; Connecticut, and removed with his father's
family to Herkimer Co.. New York, in 1801,
and in 1810 came to Erie to reside. After
serving as clerk for the late 11 8. Reed. a co
partnership in the mercantile and shipping
business, under the name and style of Reed &
Sanford, was formed. and for many years done
the heaviest trade in Erie. In addition to their
regular trade, they were heavy contractors
for supplying the Western mita% 4y posts.
In his palmy days, Mr. Sanford was con
sidered one of the most intelligent business
men in this part of the country. But for
many years physical debiTy forced him to
abandon active pursuits, and for a long time he
has been confined to his house: where, altho'
his decrepit state confined his body, yet his
active mind was ever at work. He was a greet
lover of ht,rticulture, the study of geology and
other sciences. He was also quite an anti
quarian, and collected many interestiug relics
and facts, more particularly in connection
wi. h this section of country; and tot le records
and well stored mind his daughter, Miss Laura
Sanford, warn much indebted in writing her
valuable ":History of Erie County." Ile was
always a zealous advocate of internal , im
provements, and in foot everything tending
to improvement. particularly in the section of
country where he lived.
About a week before his death, he took a
violent cold,.wbioh terminated in pneumonia,
and on' Tuesday, the 18th inst., 4 , bid adieu
to earth." He retained the full possession of
his mental faculties until the last. His funeral
on Thursday wee attended by a large concourse
of sorrowing friends, notwithstanding the
storm and cold. and the funeral services by
the Rev Mr. Cain, of the Park Church, of
which be was a' member, were truly impres
sive—were spoken in that solemn yet eloquent
pathos peculiar to Mr. C., and will long be
remembered by his hearers.

. EDITOR Onssierse :—The election in this
town went off last Tuesday. The town - usually
has erne three-fourths Republican ; at this
tip., in some offioes it has been a tie—the
largest majority being seven. There was a
general turnout on both eider. If Congress
should sit until - the next election Ili Demo
crats will number Iwo thirds of the voters.
The people begin to think that a white man is
as good as a nigger—if he behaves himself.—
There is one out of about five in favor of ne
gro suffrage, but even they don't want *nig
ger to marry their daughters. I should like
to bear from every town le the county:
