PROSPECTUS.—'"Of making many books
there is no end," and the multiplication of
newspapers is the popular source of educa
ting the people. We are aware that the idea
s quite preyolent that Bradford County has
too many papers, but with the large number
not one is wholy devoted to the interest of
the great producing class—the agricultural
ists—and at the urgent solicitation of some of
the best practical farmers in the county, we
have decided to commence about the first of
the new year, a local agricultural weekly,
especialy adapted to the wants of the farmers
of this section. The contributors to the
paper will embrace the best practical farmers
in the county, and we shall aim to make it
of real value to every tiller of the soil, dairy
man and stock raiser in the county, by giv
ing the results of experiments by those in
whom the claases interested have confidence,
and whose success in business is an evidence
fo thorough practical knowledge.
The paper will contain a condensation of
the general news and the fullest local notes.
Fuller particulars hereafter.

The impression that there were next to no
potatoes in the country, has about exploded,
and farmers who have surplus will be wise if
thev sell them now. Eastern exchanges are
predicting fifty cents per bushel as the price
before the winter is over.
The Universalist sociable to be held at M.
J. LONG'S to-morrow evening, promises to
be the very best one the ladies of that con
gregation have yet given, and to this end you,
reader, whether old or yonng, are cordially
invited to contribute by your presence.
The Towanda DAILY REVIEW copies an
item from our last week's paper and gives
credit therefor to the Tunkhannock Repub
lican. The editor of the RKYIEW must have
been either sleepy or absent minded in that
transaction; but then we don't feel bad about
it—on the contrary are rather pleased to
think that we have items considered worthy
a place in so neswy a sheet as the REVIEW,
even if the wrong fellow is credited with
them.— Tunkhannock Dem.
We will endeavor to be more particular
hereafter and give credit to whom credit is
due.
Last Wednesday evening at about six
o'clock a man by the name of THOS.TAYLOR,
while walking on the Southern Cent ral rail
road track, one mile west of Smithboro, was
struck by the locomotive of express, No. 2
bound north, and violently thrown off' the
track into the ditch, and causing a severe
wound on his head and right hip. lie was
picked up and taken to Smithboro on the ex
press, where he died at 11 o'clock. He was
formerly a merchant near Wvalusing, Pa ,
and subsequently a Yankee notion peddler.—

As Mrs. NELSON RICE and Mrs. ALEXAN
DER CORREI.L were driving to their home
near Wetonuh. Tuesday evening, the hold
back tb the harness broke, and the horse be
coming unmanageable, ran swiftly down a
steep h,ill and suddenly turning into another
road threw the ladies from the carriage
against a stump fence seriously, and perhaps
fatally, injuring both. The first named lady
was severely injured in the side and the other
being thrown headlong against the fence, is
suffer in „ from concussion of the brain.
Luckily a neighbor's child which was riding
with them, escaped unhurt. — Troy Ga

The Pennsylvania State Grange patrons of
husbandry will assemble in Williamsport,
December 13, to remain in session at least
four days. A large number of the represen
tatives of the agricultural interest from all
over the state will be present.
By a recent act of Assembly, which will be
found on page 54 of the Pamphlet Laws for
1881, all borough and township as well as
State and county taxes, arc made a first lien
on real estate upon which they are levied.
The law provides for a lien docket to be kept
in the Commissioners' office, and a new set
of books will be required for that purpose.
In case a judicial sale takes place, the lien
docket is to be satisfied before any money is
paid to the creditors. Collectors of taxes
should inform themselves as to the require
ments of the law, so as to guard against the
penalties prescribed in the third section.
The following is recommended as a cure for
a felon: When a finger pricks as though
there was a thorn in it, and throbs badly
when held downward, and yet there is no
external sign of mischief the probabilities are
that a felon is in prospect. Go at once to the
butchers and procure some of the spinal
marrow of a beef creature. Take a piece say
about two inches long, and, having cut it
open otherwise, wrap it around the affected
finger, covering it, of course, with cloth. In
a few hours change the piece of marrow for
a fresh one, and continue to keep the finger
encased until all the pain has ceased and
there is no discomfort when the marrow is
removed. The finger will look strangely
white and porous but the cure is complete*
The remedy ought to become professional.
It is vastly better than the surgeon's knife
and more effectual.
Prof. DANIELLE'S classes will continue ev
ery Thursday, afternoun and evening' until a
change can be made to Fridays. Lessons at
4:30 and 7:30 for beginners, and from 8:30 to
11, an Assembly for all. All who can do so,
are privileged to attend both the afternoon
and evening ieesons and the Assemblies, as
well, for the one charge of $5 for ladies and
children and $6 for gentlemen. The Profes
sor teaches all the dances in the one course
of lessons.
