BUTLER CITIZEN. JOHN N. 4 W. C. NEBLEV. PBOP'BS. MMCHASTB report trade as im proving. DOLLAR oil has arrived. It was a long time coming, but is here. JOHH M. MrLLER, Esq., a prominent member of the Bar of this county for some years past, is, we understand, about to remove to and locate in Cali fornia. _ THX bearing of an application at Mercer last week, for the appointment of a Receiver for the Sbenango & Alle gheny Railroad, has been postponed nntil December 2nd. TH* meteoric shower which was to come off last Wednesday night was a failure. It appears Prof. Tice made a mistake as to the date and that it does not occur until November, 1899. Hon. CHARLES H. VOORHIS, a New Jersey Congressman elect, and who failed lately, has been /wrested for ille gally abstracting from the First Na tional Bank of Hackensack, New Jer sey, of which be was President, col laterals deposited to secure a private loan. BY the news in another place it will be seen that, with one exception, all the Republican candidates on the State ticket in New York, at the late elec tion, have been elected, the vote on Lieutenant Governor being the closest, Hoskins, Republican, having 1,130 of a majority over Potter, Democrat. There were about a million of votes polled in the State. TH* Pittsburgh Commercial Ga zette protests with great force and much reason against the selection of Cincinnati as the place for holding the next Republican National Convention. The last Convention was held there, and of course another place should be selected for the coming one. Pitts burgh's time has about arrived, and why not hold the next Convention there? Lectures. The young men of this place are making arrangements for a series of lectures, such as we have had on former winters here. They will com mence abont the middle of December coming, and be semi-monthly. Sev eral of our professional men have been invited and probably will deliver lec tures. _ The Oil Boom. The price of oil waxes greater every day. It advanced one day last week twelve cents on the barrel, the greatest rise in one day for the past two years. With the rise in oil all branches of business hereabouts will be stimulated we may look for better times. It has reached already as high as $1.06£ per barrel. Since writing above we have news of Monday's operations at Oil City, aa follows : OIL C ITT, Nov. 17.—This has been the most exciting day experienced on the Oil Exchange for many months. Excitement at times amounted almost to a panic. Sales show a total of 1,140,000 barrels. Fluctuations fol lowed eaeb other in rapid succession. The price opened at SI.OBF, advanced to $1.20, and closed at $1.17}. Many fortunes were made and lost. Gen. Grant and. a Third Term. The Mayor of Chicago, in his recent speech welcoming Gen Grant to that city, gave the ex-President a fine op portunity to define his position as to the third term movement being made in bis favor ; but Grant made no re sponse tbat would indicate bis feelings, wishes or intentions as to bis name being used as a candidate for the next Presidency. On the principle, bow ever, tbat "silence gives consent," it is inferred tbat be has no objection to again being considered as a candidate. . This, we believe, a majority of the Republican party of the country will regret to bear, for while they admire him as a man, and duly appreciate all his great military services in the late rebellion, yet they feel at the same time tbat they have duly and fully honored him by already having twice bestowed upon him the highest office in tbeir gift. This was as often as they bad bestowed the Presidency upon Washington, the father of his country, and who was "first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of bis countrymen." It was also as often as they gave it to Jefferson or Jackson. Gen. Washington refused, under any conditions, to let bis name be men tioned for a third term, and from that time to this it had never been pro posed to violate the example set by him and which had come to bo re garded as part of the unwritten law of the land. The good and great Lin coln, who of all our Presidents was second only to Washington in the af fections of the people, it is believed would bave declined any third term movement in his favor, bad be lived through the second term to which he bad been elected. We think, then, tbat tbe people of this country would generally bave been gratified if Gen. Grant bad seized the opportunity af forded him by the Mayor of Chicago to bave announced that he was not a candidate and would not permit the use of bis name for a third term. By the Mayor's reference to Washington, and contrasting Gen. Grant to him, he evidently intended and expected Gen. Grant to say in answer that be ap proved of the rule set by Washington and desired to abide by his example. Ue may do so yet in time, and we be lieve be should. If ho does not, and is again nominated and elected, a pre cedent will be set that may plead against us in the future. However good he has been, and might be again, yet in the future bad men may reach the high place of President and may use the broken example of Washing ton to perpetuate themselves in power. And if once broken for a third term it mav be further broken for a fourth and a fifth term, and where, then, would be the end ? Business First. Now that the elections are over the most important and best thing for the country is for every man to attend to his business. That this is neglected during times of political excitement and elections there can be no doubt, and the result has bee« that not only particular persons suffer in their par ticular business, but the country suf fers as well. In the present state of affairs nothing could happen that would be more injurious to the revival of business and good times than an other exciting elcctioD, and hence it is that we look with a kind of dread on the so early discussion of candidates for the next Presidency. It cannot be long at best until the people are again convulsed with the issues and demands of the election of next year, and if that expected great contest is to begin now and be kept up nothing will be more damaging to the business inter ests of all. We seem to go from one contest right into another, and of course during these excitements busi ness must suffer. Hopes are held out and promises of better times always made by all parties, during elections, and many people do not get time ap parently to see them fulfilled. Elec tions perhaps come too frequently in this country, as one is scarcely over until another is commenced, and hence questions remain unsettled, or are so continually agitated as to keep busi ness unsettled. Just now the remedy is, for all to turn their attention to a revival of business interests, for as soon as we enter the whirlpool of another excitement everything will again come to a standstill until it is over. The New York Result. New YORK, Nov. 13.—The result in New York is no longer in doubt. Re turns from all but two counties, as returned by the county canvassers, show that Mr. Cornell, Republican, has a majority of 40,172 ; Hoskins, Republican, Lieutenant Governor, 1,130 majority; Carr, Republican, Sec retary of State, 4,411; Wadsworth, Republican, Controller, 7,059; Ward, Republican, Attorney Geueral, 7,909; Wendell, Republican, Treasurer, 4,6.01; Seymour, Democrat, Engineer, 9,969; John Kelly's vote, 77,471. There are many complaints of unfair count in the rural districts. The returns have dis closed many irregularities, but the majorities are so large that the general result is not likely to be aflfected by changes made in consequence of irreg ularities. Some votes have been thrown aside because of wrong spelling or use of a wrong initial, which would doubt less be restored were the count close. Thus Mr. Soule loses 1,600 votes in one county, as his ballots were printed for Engineer, Instead of for Engineer and Surveyor. Thanksgiving Proclamation. Gov. Hoyt has issued the following Thanksgiving proclamation: A PROCLAMATION —In devout recog nition of the God of States who has ordered peace, health and abundant prosperity to the people, I, Henry M. Hoyt, Governor of Pennsylvania, do appoint Thursday, the 27th of Novem ber next, iu pursuance of the recom mendation of the President of the United States, as a day upon which the good people of this Commonwealth, laying aside all secular occupations, may meet together in reverent thanks giving for mercies received and prayer for a continuance of divine favor. Given under my hand and the great seal of the State, at Hurrisburg, this 7th day of November, in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-nine, and of the Common wealth the one hundredth and fourth. HENRY M. IIOYT. By the Governor: M. S. QCAV, Scc'y of Com. The Law to Be Enforced. Now that the fall elections are over, the assessors of the various dis tricts will proceed to make up their triennial valuation of real estate and personal property. The assessors this year will make valuation on all stocks, bonds, mortgages, notes, judgments, etc. This is in accordance with the law of 1846, which up to this time has practically been a dead letter iu this State, although it has been iu force in New York State for some years. Blanks will be furnished to every citi zen, on which he will be required to make a list under oath, of his personal property besides stocks, bonds, etc., and from these lists the assessors will make their valuation, and assess the tax to be collected. A heavy penalty will be imposed upon any one who fails to make out his list within a given time after receiving the blanks. So long as the State had plenty of money in its vaults, this law of 1846 was not enforced ; but this year our Commonwealth seems to Is: sort of hard up and this law will Is; accor dingly revived and enforced to fill up the depleted coffers of the State.—ln diana {Pa.) Mennenger. TUB attention of business men is called to the postal regulation now in force, which allows an unreceipted bill, memorandum, or statement of account, to Is: mailed in an unsealed envelope at a postage of one cent. The words "Please remit" may be printed on such documents, but it must not Is: written thereon. Newspaper oublish-. ers can enclose unreceipted bills in their newspapers when forwarded to bona Jide subscribers. A BALLOT-BOX bttH been invented which rings a bell when a vote enters it, which counts all the ballots as they are received, stamps them with a num ber, and piles them neatly away, be yond the reach of any hand. The box j will, of course, be introduced every where. Ulntl** fl«., H&Mjemfeer X 9, 18? 9. HEBE IT IS. THE OFFICIAL VOTE OF PENNSYLVANIA AT THE LATE ELECTION.

CHICAGO, NOV. 12. —The train from Galena bearing Grant arrived at ten o'clock. The rain was falling heavily, but in a few minutes the clouds lifted and the sun shone brightly. Grant alighted arid taking a seat in a carriage the procession at once moved. It in cluded Gen. Sheridan and stafT, Gen. Stockton and stafT, Gen. Torrence and staff and numerous military organiza tions. The carriage containing Gen. Grant was escorted by the society of the Army of the Tennessee, the car riage containing Gen. Sherman and Gov. C'ullum, carriages containing dis tinguished guests and maimed and crippled soldiers, the society of the Army of the Cumberland, the society of the Army of the I'otomac, the vet eran organizations, Mexican veterans, the Grand Army of the Republic, Gen. Wallace and staff, old settlers, car riages containing the city and county officials and various civic organizations. The streets along the line of march were profusely decorated with em blems of welcome and congratulation. Newspaper offices generally were adorned with flags, bunting and ever greens. Grant left the procession at the Pal mer house and reviewed it from the balcony. It required over two hours to pass a given point. There was a dense and appreciative crowd along the whole line of march, which gave the loudest applause to Grant, Sher man and Sheridan. After the review Grant was formally welcomed by Mayor Harrison in the rotunda of the Palmer House. After alluding to Grant's reception abroad the Mayor said : "Sir—you have served your country nobly and the country has honored you grandly. Like the immortal Washington you rose from the lower walks of life, passed through all the military grades until you commanded its victorious armies. Like him you filled the office of President two long terms and when two terms were over you were offered a crown, but preferred 'immortality and fame to temporary power. Ho returned to private life and lives in the hearts of his people and all time will call him his country's father. Vou, too, sir, when your two terms were over, obeyed that part of your coun try's unwritten traditions hallowed by the immortal example of Washington, and you, ,too, retired and you, too, sir, live and will live forever in your countrymen's hearts." The speech was upplauded heartily. Grant in reply said: "Gentlemen of Chicago and Illinois—l feel very much honored by the welcome which I am receiving at your hands to-day. I feel highly honored by the pledge of wel come which has been uttered bv your worthy Mayor, which is something so personal to myself that it would be hardly in good taste for me to respond to the language of it, and it leaves, therefore, nothing for me to do but con vey my thanks to this committee and the citizens of this city for the hearty reception they have given me. As to one allusion to my reception abroad I will say that in every ease I felt it was a tribute to our own country. I will add further that our country stands differently abroad in the estimation of European and Eastern Nations from what it did a quarter of a century ago. American citizens are regarded in a different light from the Americans of a quarter of a century ago. At that time it was believed that we had no nation—it was merely a confederation of StatoH tied together by u rope of sand ami would give away upon the slightest friction. They have found that it was a grand mistake. They know we have now a nation ; that we are a nation of strong and intelligent and brave people, capable of judging and knowing our rights and deter-' mined on all occasions to maintain them aerainst either a domestic or a foreign foe, and that in the reception you, as a nation, have received through me whilst I was abroad.'' RESULT OF AN INTERVIEW WITII THE EX-PRESIDENT. CINCINNATI, NOV. 12.—A Galena special reports an interview with Grant, and savs that he looks better and younger than when he left the White House. Grant says if possible he mav spend part of the winter in the West Indies, returning through Mex ico. "When I start East in Decem ber it is possible I may get employ- j ment at something which may change ? my plans. The only information I j have of being chosen President of the Texas Pacific is through the newspa pers." "It is reported that very many peo- | pie insist that you shall be President ; of the United States again." "That, j too," said Grant, "is without my au- j thority. The fact is that I have not been disturbing myself about anything since I went away. Any plans made for the future for me, are without con sultation with me." Grant further said that he would spend two days in Cincinnati some time after December Bth, when he starts East. He gave it as his opin ion that New York, San Francisco and Chicago, are the three greatest metropolitan cities of America. THE rise in the Monongahela river allowed the Pittsburgh c«»al merchants to get their coal barges started down the river la3t Saturday. Some six million bushels were stated for the Cincinnati and Louisville, markets. Speaking of the movement, the Gazette of Monday says: The movement of at least a million dollars' worth of property created, as it always does, a great deal of interest on the part of the people, outside of the owners. The latter were of course filled with a most intense interest. From early in the morning till long after nightfall the Monongahela wharf and the sidewalk along Water street, from Grant all the way to the Point, held hundreds of motley groups, all eagerly watching the large tows of barges loaded with black diamonds, as they floated past the city. Many of the owners were congregated about the Monongahela house discussing the situation, send ing and receiving messages to various points, answering questions pro pounded by the curious, and scanning the tows carefully as they passed. Beneath the calm exterior generally worn by the owners of the valuable cargoes that were departing a close ob server could detect evidences of deep anxiety, and that these men were anxious is something not to lie won dered at, for the vast amount of property that was fast receding from view was going—they knew not where it might be to the bottom of the Ohio. The coal business, as is well known, is a most hazardous one. The vast crowd that had no immediate pecu niary interest in the matter, seemed to be in full sympathy with the owners— to share in their anxiety—and many times were heard the remarks: "I hope they'll get through safely." "Wouldn't it be a pity if one of those barges would sink. It has twelve thou.-sand bushels of coal in it, and is worth nearly two thousand dollars." "There goes one of Brown's fleets. Great thunder, what a lot of coal they are sending out! Over a million and a half." In this way the people put in their time throughout the day. The boat stores were all open, and did a lively business in the way of furnish ing the various towboats with indis pensable articles. Salo of Oil Land. BRADFORD, NOV. 11.— The details of the transfer of the largest single area of oil lands ever known to have Ireen sold in the oil regions are made public for the first time to-morrow. The land sold is what is known as the Moody tract, situated six miles south of this city aud comprising seven thousand acres, a large part of which is known to be prolific oil territory, through but a very small portion has been developed. Only a few wells have been drilled upon it. The grant ors are Horace J. Moody, the heirs of Webb Clarke, Scribner and others of New York city, and the grantees, Melvin, Walker Howe, of this city, who take 2,500 acres; the Babeock Brothers, Hornellsville, New York, 1,000 acres, and John Allen, Jr., John Williams, George E. Laverack and others, of Buffalo, the remaining 3,000 acres. The land is to be divided up into small parcels and sold or leased for oil purposes. The total considera tion was $105,000. THE time is approaching when ten ants will make arrangements for the use of a property during the coming year. A good price is willingly paid for a good property. When the house is in good repair and the place favora bly located, there is no trouble in get ing a fair rent. A great difficulty here is, tbat people who have houses to rent all demand about the same price, no regard being paid by the owner to the condition or location of the premises. Rents are not higher here than in other towns of this size, and very few, if any, houses art! stand ing idle, but the houses gem-rally that are offered for rent, were built many years ago, and art; without many of the conveniences found in houses late ly built. If owners would incur the expense of putting their properties in good tenantable condition, with some of the modern improvement* about them, they could get a good class of tenants for a term of years at a fair rent. Ohftndlor'M Buooo«Hor. DETROIT, Nov. 14.— Gov. Crosswell has appointed Fernando C. Beaman, of Adrian, to lillout the unexpired term of Senator Chandler. The appoint ment was not expected, but it gives general satisfaction. Mr. Beaman is a lawyer of high standing, and served as Representative in Congress from IXfil to 1871, and since the latter date has been Probate Judge of Lenawee county. He was a Democrat until H4B, when he joined the Free Soil party, arid afterwards the Republican, when or ganized iu this State in 18.04. "LIOHI Biif LIOHI" Not so fast, my friend ; for if you would see tin; strong, healthy, bloom ing men, women and children that have been raised from IXMIS of sickness, suffering and almost death, fry the une of Hop Bittern, you would say "Truth, glorious truth." See "Truths iu an other column. An "Agricultural Number" of Scrlbner's Monthly.

If it i» taken in tiine it is u* en-nily cured as a wart or a corn. We know very well that it is a fearful disease and will eat away until It destroys life, that is if it is neglected, hut if it is attended to when it first makes its r\ppea r u:ice, or soon after, there is no trouble in eradicating It from the system. Persons will have to be here during part of the treatment., consequently there is no use writing to me for information whether it can be cured without my seeing the case.
