GOLD IN tIiLA.TAAM.—Mr. William
Spalding, of Chatham, some weeks ago found a
, rein of tom mineral on his farm, and' proonrod
' the assay of s speoimen of the oro by a New York
mayor. We hare seen the assayer's certificate,
to the effeot that the ore yields upward of $lO per
ton of gold air silver. Whilo lie do hot favor
gold digging overmuch, there is' undoubtedly
oonsidembly undexeloped mineral wealth in the
hills where this ore exists. If tile oro doss not
net more than $l2 per ton, however, on redac
tion, it will not pap to work it at preeent-: We
hope hlr. Eipplding will realise a fortune.
THE CONCERT.—The lovers of good
music were most satisfactorily entertained. by the
Lo Sears Family, at the Town Ball, ;Friday
evening. The bogie was a good* one, and save
the presence of a few mischievous boys, an ap
preciative one. Thu Missea Le Sears are gen
uine and accomplished artists, performing their
parts, with an ease and self-poise which promise
more than ordinary excellence for the future.
We take great pleasure in commending these
musicians to that portion of the public which
finds pleasure in refined amusements. Mr. Le
Sears has been before the public for many years
and is well and favorably known to many of our
people.

dress in the CoUrtHouse Tuesday evening, llith

The audience was not complimentary to the
spirit of the temperance people of Wellsboro,
inany.nicti and women who are looked to as ex
emplars in community,_ being absent. Yet the

fective. At the close of the-meeting a Lodge of

Saturday night, 10th lost the particulars of
which wo rettive from Sheriff-Potter, as - follows
Mr. Joseptagee yilutiklhe house
of a neighbor, Afr. Palmer, tolpeathe.evifning,
leaving• in charge of the house two bays about a
dozen years of age. At about eleveno'cloak Mr.
and Mrs. 'Gee prepared to go home, - and on
reaching the door discovered their house' in
flames. The whole party hastened bank, tteeom s
ponied by Mr, Palmer, but found the, fire vary
cadianceaand beyond''eentrol.l liar {lee
rushed into the house and rosound'n bed or two.
He then returned, probably to secure his money
and papers, and being overcome by the heat and
smoke, perished in the Dames.' 2 .Thci - remains
were taken from the ruins next day and , .,given
sepulture. The fire steins to have caught' from
the fire-place, the door 'haviialfbltivin'open niter
the boys went to bed. They awoke to find the
house in flames. 1 The House and furniture were
insured in the Glens Falls Company. Every-,
thing, save the.beds, was destroyed
MEI
FIRE IN LAWRENOEVMLE.—A ?most
destructive fire broke out ira Darlings la 'Day's,
Drug, Store, at about 2 o'elook, Tuesday morn
ing, 1011 inst., and raged with great fury until
six stores, the post-office, Parkhursts Law Office,.
and the Ford House were reduced to ashes. It
will be remembered that a • very &sfructive fire
ravaged tha,.aamo quarter of the village 'about a
3Tar ago, on thit - opposite side of Main-at. The
entire business portion of • the village- is now
"cleaned out." The losses and insuraace bare
not come to hand at this writing, but we. hear
that there was insurance Upon most of the prop
erty.
•
Late nom furnishes the following estimates of
oases and insurance:
'Ford House, John Hillier, loss $4OOO. Pally
floured.
C. S. Mather & Co., dry goods, building owned
by Mrs. Botts. Goods fullyinsitred. Losss6oo6.
No insurance on building. Mrs. Butts was a
heavy loser by the fire of last year.
W. 6. Horton, groceries, hardware, and eFock
ery. Fully insured.
Darling k Day, drugs. Lose $BOO. Fully in
sured.
George W. Ryon, Law Office ?, books saved.
Thornton, grocer, goods mostly saved.
'Post-Office in same building, gontents saved.
The fire is supposed to bo aeldental, though
there is;reason to believe that it resulted from
carelessness.
• The tiro Company wore pro ptly on hand, but
an accident to the hose diga tad the . maohitM
early in the day.

•
D s- Glositiw.—Perhape•you have' seen, or
hmaybe t'kldo to tell us something about, "the
mighty good follow." Ho buys the cigars -for
the crowd, and pays for' tho drinks all around.
If-oystel be handy to be got at, he pays fort.ho
'oysters.' If he goes to a hotel with a crowd, ho
hurries out to the office and pays the entire "shot."
Sometimes you wonderif there is any bottom 'to
hie purse, any And to hie money. Of course he
is immensely popular. He is quoted on all occa
sions, and is authority on all - wont questions. In
appearance this "mighty good follow" does:.not
differ much from other frank, good-humored-,
faced young men yOu may see in every neighbor
hood. He is not, naturally, vicious. , Rather, ho
is naturally a good fellow, fond of. approbation,'
careless of reoney, over-socially inclined, and ex
tremely liable to come to want. Jaen that
impecunious period arrives, our young subject
learns several things, among which we enumerate
That this longest road has a turning.; that the
deepest pocket has a bottom; that the biggest
puree may ho turned inside out—Empty; and
that when a fellow arrives at the turn of the road,
finds tbs bottom ofhis pocket, beholds the inside
of an empty purse, and marks the situation, his
reputation as "a good fellow" disappears, like
frost Under the rising sun, and he is 'no longer
- •
quoted as authority.' If ho be a sensiblo fellow
-
at the bottom—if there be something; !more than
husks in his composition—he will accept the
situation like a philosopher, and gain much wit:.
dom by the experience. If he bo a shallow, su
perficial fellow, likely enough, go to the
"dogs." The purpose of this allusion tSisuctigifiod
fellows is to warn young men 'of the Pock 'usien
which they inevitably split. 4cany, young ,man,
it is 'better to have no reputatiOn at all than to
have one so doubtful in its signification. We
can tel you of a better use *for your money,
young man. First—begin to create alibrary, 'of
books which will live when tho men and women
who wrote them aro dead. Addl.() hiss often as
you have spare funds. Every indust'rione young
man, having good health and good habits,. may
have a choice colleetk:n of two hundred 7 booing
'when ho reaches the ago of 24i Nor need he bo
mean in order to do it. He may ho amen among
men and do it; but if he chooses rather: to,- bo a
fool among fools, ho cannot do it. You can no
more servo Wisdom and Folly, than yen can serve
God and Mammon. It is not neoesiary to treat
every indolent sucker in the country. so often as
you meet. It is never well to treat to whisky and
beer, at any time. If ono °bonzes to invite a low
friends to eat a dish of oysters, occasionally, at
one's expense, very well. Yet that ought not to
bo done too often. You need not go . a hundred
yards to find some family which needs a roast of
beef, or a load of wood, or a sack of flour; and
bow often does , a "good fellow," as the term goes,
expend enough, foolishly, in a single evening,
to purchase a. sack of flour 1
—But, does some one ask, "ia a fellow never to
have any' comfort of his money?" Certainly.
But no man has a right to fling his money away
when any human Creature is in need around him.
Try to find your comfort in the comfort of other
people who need comforting. The hearty thanks
of a needy person are better than a flash reputa
tion for liberality. The one endures forever, the
other is a costly, foolish sham.
—A lady correspondent last week inquired:
"who shall set the examples ?" We reply—The
grown generation. Men and women- are placed
hero for that very purpose. To whom do the
young look ? By the conduct of whom do. they
justify themselves? By the conduct of their
elders. Remonstrate with a ''young. man about
his drinking, he will retort—"iiir. A, or, Mr. B,
drinks. Chide him for keeping late hours, he
retorts, "I AM home aelearly 'as - father," -or the
older brother of the fetidly. Chide a ioung girl
fCtr extravagance, and sho will quote "mother,"
'"sister," or Mrs. A, B, or C, as authority. So it
goes; and we ought to learn that "the gods are
Just, and of our pleasant vices make instruments
to scourge us." In other words,
_the sins of the
adolt world aro visited upon the rising generation.
—The other day a friend, who is ranch of :a
philosopher, spe,itkilig,of a Man. with. Unfortunate
habits, said : "110 has' - no - conception of any
grade of motive, -or inclination, - or eharactiii.;
higher than his own. On the contrary, hero
gards all . apparently higher 'motives, inclina
tions, and attributes, as hypoorisies and shams,"
Such a man is like the fox, which as the fable has
it, bad lost his tail in a trap. 'lt Will be remem 7
bored that ho set at work to cM l avirice the rest of
foxkind that tails wore shame. 1 We .do not read
that all the foxes therefore cut off their tails.
—Rom comes a friend, with' a graphic' sum
mary of progress and improvement during the
year 1868; for which, - (thesimmary) we aro over
so much obliged, and print it with great pleasure.

The American Cooking Stave
All articles of value and established reputs-"-,
Lion have their imitation,. Manufacturers who
have nqt the brains to invent or the enterprise to
establish a reputation for themselves; seek to
appropriate the inventions and reputations of
those who have. The American Cooking Stove,
for instance, has obtained a world-wide reputa
tion. Messrs. Sheer, Packard .4; Co. have spent
seven years in improving and perfecting this
stove, : till it is almost perfect as al stove, and
they have spent large amount! in advertising
and bringing its merits before the people.
There have been numerous imitations of it, sad
they have been compelled to bring are salts
against different parties for appropriating their
patented improvements, all of which have!muulted
in their favor. The last phase of these imita
tions is one similar in design and almost an ex
act imitation of the name, - only one teller WI outs
These spurious Imitations are sought to be
palmed off upon thci public as a genuine article.
This is in violation of their rights; and they
have commenced a suit to - restrain the tale of
these fraudulent articles and they propose to
prosecute all infringements and imitatiotts till
others cease'from appropriating and imitating
their improvements.
