A special meeting of Towanda Lodge, K. of P., is called for this evening, to take action in regard to the funeral of one of their mem oers, E. R. DELONG. The subject of a recent lecture in Mansfield, Pa., was "Mysteries in an egg shell." As the subject for a lecture, that is certainly a fresh one.— Eimira Advertiser. Eggsaetly so, but then if kept too long it E ay become stale. Professor Vennor has written from Mon treal to the Albany Argus, to caution ull to put up the danger signals in the shape of coal bins. His second snow storm is coming right away, and the second cold wave will be here tn little over a week: "The second cold period in February will reach us on the 22d, 23d, 24th aud 25th days. This it is probable, will be extremely cold along the valley of the St. Lawronce and Ot tawa rivers, northern United States, and to the weatward. February will certainly end cold. The second heavy" snow storm of the month should —by my theory - come on us abnut the 15th, and this bids fair to be heavv, with drifts and fairly cold weather. We have vet to get our heaviest snow tails ol the win ter, and some of these are certain to extend througli March. Up to the 15tli the weather should be moist." E. REUBEN DKLONG, who died at his home in North Towanda yesterday morning, was one of the most prominent men of the town ship. Commencing life with nothing but a stout heart, strong hands, indomitable perse verance and untiring industry, coupled with prudent economy and clear business foresight, he accumulated a handsome competency. After spending fifteen or twenty years clear ing up a farm in Asylum township, in 1804 be purchased the property he has since occu pied in North Towanda. As an evidence of the esteem in which he was held by his neigh bors, it may be mentioned that he was several times elected Constable of the township, and was also tax-collector for many years. When the Order of Patrons of Husbandry was instituted he became a zealous Granger, and was elected first Worthy Master of Osca luwa Grange, a position he Continued to hold until declining health prevented him from discharging the duties. He was also elected Master of the county Grange, and Steward of the State Grange. Mr. DKLONG was always an active politi cian. and was several times mentioned in con nection with important offices; was tw ice elect ed to the important office of County Auditor, and for the paHt seven years had been Deputy U. S. Marshal. He leaves a wife, but no children. He was §8 years old. His aged mother is still living- The funeral will take place at the house to morrow afternoon at 1 o'clock, and will be under direction of the Knights of Pythias, of which order deceased was a member, Two Orphanß to-night.

On Tuesday morning of this week, the citi- i zens of Troy were suddenly saddened by the < announcement of the untimely death of Mr. LESTER Q. VANHORN, and a man by the J name of CAMPBELL—by the explosion of a boiler in a steam saw mill, owned by the former, and situated upon Armenia mountain, six miles from Troy. The mill was a new one and has been in operation but a few weeks. The accident was caused by the weight of j steam within the boiler being so great, com- j } binedwith the temperature of the air without. \ as to overpower the strength of it, and it j gave way with tremendous force. There were employed about the mill at the * time six hands, including Mr. VANHORN, S who, with his usual activity was superintend- i ing the work. Three of these were without I the mill—skidding logs—while Mr. VANHORN was firing the engine, and Mr. MA-IILON LUTHER and Mr. CAMPBELL were employed ; I at the saw. The men without the mill were ! I suddenly startled by a loud report, and look- ' ing in the directian from which the soumd came, saw mill, logs, engine, stone, timber < and men high in the air. Searching among the ruins they found the ! dead bodies of VANHORN and CAMPBELL, < also LUTHER, badly hurt, but still living. i Mr. VANHORN'S death falls as heavily upon the community as upon his family and a large 1 circle of friends, for lie was an earnest Chris sian, a man foremost in every good deed, and a friend of all. He was a prominent member of the Troy Farmers Club, and of the Grangers. Mr. WALTER GERNTTT, of the firm of ] GKRNETT & BALLARD, was quite seriously injured by the explosion of a coal stove at his house on Tuesday morning.

Thus the aged parents of the wife of the proprietor of this paper have la-en lain away to rest, after a long and well-spent life, only about nine months intervening between their deaths. For a j eriod of tiftv-four years they traveled life's journey together, a pleasure experienced by comparatively few wedded people. Their children uumbcred ten—eight of whom are living and married —who deeply mourn the loss of their kind, affectionate and indulgent parents. On Friday of last, week the father's eyes ceased to behold a number of those dear to hini upon earth, to open to meet, bis wife and two children who bad crossed the threshold of eternity before him. Sooner or later death comes to all men. It enters the household with its silent tread. Its icy hand is no respecter of persons, invading the home of the poor and the mansion of the rich at its will. No matter how much love is lavished upon a household idol, it may be crushed and destroyed while the eharnal house opens wide its gaping mouth to receive its remains. But with all such afflictions, mortals upon earth are consoled and soothed by the promises that a better life is open to mortal man when his short stay upon earth is ended. The funeral of the father took place from his late residence on Monday afternoon last, the Rev. Dr. STEWART, of Towanda, officiat ing—a large number of relatives and sympa thizing friends being present. According to Ins request before bis death, I)r. STEWART read in a beautiful manner the 14th chapter of Job, upon which be based appropiate and impressive remarks. The remains were de posited in Riverside Cemetery at Towanda.— Ovoego Record.
