A minister of the Waverly- Presbyterian

boarded for a time at the house of a Mr . :,

he wanted to set his own figures. He pus
'what he considered a fair price on the table
and lett the house. but was afterward sued
and the balance (118 75) recovered by Mr.
Thatcher. - It seemed to exasperate the Rev
erend to be beaten, and on Sunday, the Bth
instant, at - the close of his sermon he twitched
'Pis clerical necktie into a becoming position,
struck a tragic) attitude; assumed an air of in.
jured innocence, and proceeded to - lay before
the assembled audience his own private
,grievances and grossly thine a family who had
only insisted upori their just and legal rights.
In the course of his remarks he - said that he

slanderous allusions to the members of the

The deacons biolepd daggers at the angry

We copy the following well-merited com -
pliment to Judge Ingham, who has many
friends here, from the Laporte correspond
ence of the TankhannOck Republican.
'The most enterprising man in town' so
tar is building and getting things in shape
it concerned, is flon.,Thomas J. Ingham.
Indeed the Judge is a leader in every public
improvement made; sparing neither
talent or money in exhibiting his public
spirit. And still he finds time to keep up
with the progress of JudiCial wiener for
thole) who know, speak of him as well-ve i ned
in the beat thoughts of legal minds. Twenty
four years of study and experience as s law
yer and Judge have certainly made him sue
caudal in both legal and judicial . practice.'

AUBURN FARM WAGONS.
These Farm and Lumber Wagons are, without
doubt. the very best wagons-now in the market.
The manufacturers of - the Auburn Wagons are
making every effort to Make the very best wagon
possible; and with such success, that they can
and do make a better Farm and Lumber Wagon
than anymegon-maker can make who has not the
unequalled facilities possessed by the E. D. Clapp .
Wagon Co. No wagon-maker in Northern Penn
,sylvania can make as good a wagon In all re-
spects. I refer particularly to the wheels and
axles.
Nothing but flrit clams Umber, thoroughly
seasoned, is used, and the woods of the entire
running gears are soaked in boiled linseed oU
and thoroughly dried before being painted. No
malleable irons ars used. The Wagon Company
has its own rolling mill and makes its own re. -
tined iron, and that of the very best quality.
Mr. Clapp, the President of the Wagon Com
pany. and an old wagon-maker of very big=
utation:a few days ago said to me: "Att we
exert ourselves to at utmost to stake a better - wagon,
we could not do" it."
I invite All farmers and others needing new
wagons to examine the Auburn Wagon before
buy lag any other. Try the wagon sad you will
be convinced that I do not claim too much for it.
Come and see the wagons or send for circulars
and prices.
