The Sheriff's Sales yesterday drew together
quite a number of capitalists.
The Commissioners have about decided on
a plan for the poor-house, and work will be
commenced as soon as the spring opens.
The C. Y. M. A. A. have issued invitation
for their last grand ball, to be held in Mereur
Hall, February 0.
There is a lively trade in old iron now-a
days. Everything in that line brings cash at
the nail mill, and the boys have not been
slow in finding it out.
An excellent quality of clay, such as is re
quired in constructing the puddling furnaces
at the nail mill, has been discovered on GEO.
SCOVILLE'S farm. Herotfore the material has
been brought from some place in New Jer
sey.
The Long Valley Coal Company's lands are
very near the Cash tract, now the property of
Muj. IIALE, and other gentlemen in this
vicinity. It is well know that there is a rich
deposit of coal on these lands, and the open
ing of the new mines will, we hope, lead to
the development of it.
The Reception given- by Linta, No. 3, at
Mereur Hall last evening, proved what was
anticipated, the social event of the season.
The guests were numerous, both from home
and abroad, and everything passed off to the j
entire satisfaction of all interested.
The committee having the affair in charge,
are to be congratulated on their admirable ar
rangement of the reception.
The "hall was opened" at 9:30. by Chief j
Engineer PORTER and Miss GOODRICH lead
ng off in the "giddy mazes of the dance."
The coal oil inspector of New Orleans, in j
a recent report, suggests the following pre
cautions :
The following explosive and dangerous j
oils and fluids, comprise two-thirds of
the whole quantity consumed in this city, are
"carbon oil," with ; flashing point of from
65 deg. F. to 80 deg. F. and an igniting point,
of from 75 deg. F. to 95 deg. F. Next comes
"naphtha;" this fluid is the most explosive
and dangerous of any of the products of pe
troleum that are burned in lamps, causing
fully three-quarters of the accidents that
occur. It, is extensively sold under the name
of "septoline;" this fluid flashes and ignites
at, from 6 deg. F. to 7 deg. F., and is liable to
explode at any moment. Lastly conies "gas
oline," which flashes and ignites at about 0
deg, F. This is extensively used in sugar
bouses, and in many establishments in this
city in metalic aparatuses, and when so used
is comparatively safe. 1 would recommend
that parties purchasing oil from corner gro
ceries test, the oil before using the same,
which they can do in the following simple
manner:
Take an inverted cup or saucer; pour on it
a teaspoonful of the oil; pass a lighted match
or taper across tin; surface of the oil; if it
flashes or ignites it is dangerous.
To those who will persist in burning oils
and fluids known to ho dangerous. I would
recommend them to take the following pre
cautions :
Fill and trim your lamps daily.
Never attempt to fill a lighted lamp.
Burn your lamp with the wick turned up
full —never turn down the wick and burn as
a taper, for when so burned the gas, instead
of being burned with the oil, collects and
causes your lamp to explode.
Use burners which are considerably elevat
ed above the body of the lamp.
And if you are determined to light your
lire with coal oil, first ascertain if there are
any live coals in the grate or fire place. After
you have poured on your oil set your oil can
in the next room, put. your trust in the Lord
and touch her off. By observing these rules
you may be lucky enough to escape an acci
dent.
A large number of cases will go to the
Supreme Court from this County at the com
ing March term. The Bridge Company take
up t*vo eases.
Personal.
G. C. STOLL has gone to Laporte to conduct
the Democrat, for Mr. MYLERT.
HENRY C. OVERTON, Esq., of Cobden. 111.,
is visiting friends in town.
Mrs. NEWCOMII, of Rochester, nee Miss
LOOM is, of Meshoppon, is visiting Miss NEL
LIE DODGE, and other friends in Towanda.
ARCHIE DEVOIC, of the Elmira Free. Press
attended the Linta Reception last evening,
and made us a pleasant call this morning.
Miss KINGSBURY, the talented young lady
preacher, will deliver a discourse in the
Church of the Messiah (Universalist), on
Sunday evening. She is said to he an able
and pleasant speaker.
It. C. LOCKWOOI), of Wellsburg, N. Y.,
was a welcome taller at, the REVIEW office
last evening. Mr. L. is not only a shrewd
business man, but, an earnest and intelligent
Republican. Ih* believes, with scores of
others, that General GRANT ought to he
nominated for ['resident, and that he will be.
Our jovial towsman, Hon. Jos. I'ATTON,
narrowly escaped a serious accident, Wedes
dav afternoon. He was returning from a
visit to his uncle. Maj. HALE, at Woodside,
and when near the lime kiln, where the em
bankment is some twenty feet high, the hind
axle of die buggy broke, precipitating horse,
buggy, driver and Mr. I'ATTON down the
bank, landing them on the railroad track.
The vehicle was badly demoralized, and Mr.
ROBINSON, the driver was considerably bruis
ed. Fortunately Mr. I\ escaped entirely un
injured. The accident occurred just about
the time the S. L. A. S. train going south was
ducat that point, and the good people of the
neighborhood, realizing the imminent peril
of the unlucky party, rallied to their relief,
and assisted to clear the track in time for the
train. Their kind efforts in the matter are
appreciated, not only by Mr. I'ATTON and the
driver, but by the owner of the horse and
wagon, Maj. HALE.
GAFKY —MKI.VIN.—The Henry House rang
last night with the rejoicing. The event to
be celebrated was the marriage of Miss MKI.-
VIN with Tiros. GAKEY, both of Barclay.
After the ceremony, which was performed
by Rev. Father KELLEY, the twain-niade-one
and their friends returned to the Henry
House, where the festivities of the occasion
were maintained until an early hour of the
morning. The fiddler kept his place and the
lipht-fantast.ic-toe its inertia of motion—that
is, it maintained the disposition of a body in
action, to continue in its notmal condition
until the "star dials hinted at morn." Any
how, the happy pair and their friends enjoved
a most agreeable and festive occasion. With
such a send off as this proved to be, and good
wishes should prove good luck (as they some
times do), this, one of the most recent of the
embargoes society imposes upon those who
would enjoy it, will prove (as it should) of
great happiness to the happy pair.
