With a greatly strengthened editorial staff, a large corps of trained special correspondents arid distinguish* d occasional contribu tors, and an i; surpassed mechanical equipment, it may fairly claim to have distanced all rivals in an enlarged field of usefulness.

The average daily pro duction of these wells i« low, less than 25 barrels. The majority of them are in the northern, or Bradford oil field. In what is called the southern field, in cluding Clariou, Venango. Butler and Armstrong counties, but 25 wells were finished, of which 7 are dry. The whole daily production of crude oil at present is about 70.000 barrels, and al though the wells finished during De cember are yielding over fiOOO barrels per day the yield from the old wells has decreased more than that amount, which of course decreases the average yield. The price of crude oil during the last three months has ranged from 90 cents to SI.OO. Yesterday it was quoted at cents. Mr. C. B. Porter, Druggist. Towanda, Pa.

The lynching of a man named Jo seph Snyder, near Easton, Pa , on Monday of last week, is said to have been the first case ol the kiud that has ever happeued in this state. Snyder was a miner and was boarding with a family named Gogle. lie made im proper advances to their fifteen-year old daughter. This the Gogles resent ed, but as they were poor and Snyder owed them for two months board, they thought they could not afford to order him out of the house. On Sunday of last week the parties had some hot words regarding the matter and that night while Mr. and Mrs. Gogle were fast asleep in their bed, Snyder killed them both with an axe. He then alarmed some neighbors, claiming that the murders had been committed by burglars, and hid himself in a barn. When arrested next morning he con fessed his crime, and the people who had collected strung him up to a tree. Some time previous, in the same coun ty, a murderer named Laros had been acquitted in the plea of insanity and the people seemed determined to make sure ot this man. F;irm for NHl<>.

All persons interested will take no tice that all Petitions for license must be filed in the Clerk's office on or be fore the 16th dav of February, 1881. W. A. WRIGHT, Clerk. The Ponr II»u«e Question. In accordance with the call published in the county papers the woek previ ous, quite a number of the citizens of the county met in the Arbitration room of the Court House on Wednes day afternoon of last week to consider the Poor-house question. The following towns and townships were represented at the meeting: Bra dy, Clay, Fairvimv town-hip, Frank lin. Oakland, Clearfield, Centre. Perm. Jefferson, Middl sex, Fairview bor ough and Prospect, one eaeh ; Parker, 2; Concord, 4; Donegal, 3 ; Conno quenessing, 2; Butler township, 3; Summit, 4 ; Forward 2; Winfield, 2; Cranberry, 2; Clinton, 3; Millerstown, 3 ; Petrolia, 2 ; Butler borough, 3. Hon. A. L. Campbell of Petrolia was elected President of the meeting, and Jos. B. Bredin, Esq., Secretary. The first thing in order was the read ing of sections 1, 2 and 3 of the Act of Assembly, approved .lune 4, 1879, which creates each county in t he Com monwealth a poor district, and empow ers the Couutv Commissioners to buy real estate, erect buildings, etc., pro vided the people of the county decide upon hsvinjf a poor-house. To reach this decision the act provides that the Court of Quarter Sessions of the coun ty shall, upon the petition and recom mendation of two-thirds of the Over seers of the Poor of the county, then in office, order an election, submitting the question to the people either at the usual February or November elections, or at a special election ordered for the purpose, sixty days notice to be given. After the reading of the Act several warm speeches were made, for arfd against having a poor-house. Some contending that the paupers of the county were well enough taken care of at present; that the present system was by odds the most economical, and that a poor-house would be a burden and a curse to the county ; others that the poor were not well enough taken care of as it is ; that it was often hard and sometimes impossible to find any body in the town or township who would take them in ; that having a poor farm was the most economical way of providing for the poor, and that a poor farm properly established and managed would be almost, if not entirely sel.-sustaining. Those present holding the latter views seemed to be in the majority for the following mo tion was put, seconded and carried : Resolved, That this meeting recom mend the Overseers of the Poor of the several poor districts to petition the Court at once to authorize an election for the purpose of allowing the citizens of the county an opportunity to vote for or against the purchase of a poor farm. Some more discussion on the ad vantages and disadvantages of poor- , houses followed the adoption of the , resolution. The only poor-house report in the meeting was one of the Alleghe ny county poor-house for 187f, which states that the maintenance of each i pauper provided for at the institution | cost the county but $71.30 for the year. The average number of inmates for the year is stated at 285; the bills for groceries, dry goods, salaries, med icines, tobacco, etc., aggregate $21,- 74'.) 71 ; but the bills for other things, new buildings, repairs, etc., and in cluding a Hospital bi'l of $14,879 84, aggregate $32,105 38, making $53,855,- 09 in all. It seemed to be the desire of some of those present who favored havimr a poor-house or farm, that the election should be held with the coming Feb ruary election, but as the act provides that at least sixty days notice of the election shall be given, it cannot lte held at any regular election prior to that or next November, but if two thirds of the Over-eers favor having a poor-bouse, and so express tlemselves immediately, and ask for an election as soon as possible, under the act the Court might order a special election. These expressions for the, rojectcan be sent to the Secretary of the meet ing, .1. I'. Bredin, lvsq., of this place, and if the number equals two-thirds of the whole number of Overseers of the county he will make the fact known to the Court. Ml. (lie* til lit IteuiH. January 3d, 1881.
