The Daily Review. Towanda, Pa., Thursday, Dec. 15, 1881. EDITORS • 8. W. ALVORD. NOBLE N.ALVOBD "Daily Rerietc" Only 25 cent* per month. Wry it! PROSPECTUS. —"Of making many books there is no end," and the multiplication of newspapers is the popular source of educat ing the people. We are aware that the idea s quite preyelent 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 agricultur isits—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, especially 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- Iman and stock raiser in the county, by giv ing the results of experiments by those in whom the classes 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. GERTRUDE KELLOGG to-night. Kerosene Burners for Oil Lanterns at C. M.

There will be no meeting of the Musical Society this week. The next regular meet ing will be at the rooms of Mrs. L. M. OS BORNE, Thursday morning Dec. 22. It is reported that a colored man of Wayer ly who dug up and appropriated the clothing of Mr. RAYNSKORD, who died at Sayre a few days ago, has been taken down with small pox, Rev. C. T. II ALLOW ELL will preach in the lecture room of the Baptist Church this evening. A prayer meeting will be held from 7 to 7:30, after which the discourse will be delivered. All are invited. We are indebted to H. M. FERGUSON, the obliging Steward of the Poor House, for the following item under date of Dec. 12: John C. Giles, from Wyalusing twp died this morning at 4 o'clock. He was admitted on the 4th of October and registered at 70 years of age. This i the tenth one that has died. Their ages are, (51, 87, 00, 34, 91,88,90, 78, 70, 70; average. 73 1-2 years Seven were males anil three females. The total number of inmates, 130. We have lately received four elegant steel engravings, published by Messrs. STINSON & Co., Portland, Maine, and a dozen beautiful chromo flower panels; all are fine works of .art, and do credit to the publishers. The steel engravings are very large—size of each 30 by 40 inches. The plates were engraved in London by well known English masters of art, and cost, wlnn they came into the own er's hands in Portland, custom duties paid, some thirty-two thousand dollars. These engravings are of the class that sell in Eu rope for three guineas per copy, which is over fifteen dollars. To engrave a single plate of this size and description of work manship. requires the labor of a most skilful artist from one year to two years, and often longer. These elegant engravings are entiti tled " Choosing the Wedding Gown," "The Prayer for Health," " Tending Goats," and " The Highland Hearth." It is believed, and generally conceded, that these engravings make up the finest and most elegant set of works of high art ever brought out by American publishers. Ame rican homes should be made beautiful by re fined works of aft, and prices for really gdod and meritorious pictures are now so low that there can be no excuse for the walls to re main gloomy, unadorned, and cheerless. American homes should be made beautiful, and the tendency of this will be to make more refined and beautiful the lives of all dwellers therein. It is expected that over four hundred teach ers will attend the session of the County In stitute, and any of our cttizens who are will ing to take a portion of them as boarders, can notify County Superintendent RYAN at .J. A. WILT'S oftiee. A list will be kept there for the accommodation of teachers. Any industrious, practical farmer, with a small capital, can hear of an opportunity to buy a farm on terms which will enable him to pay for ot out of the profits.
