Keeler's. lie can astonish you, both in quality and price. The Republican county convention which will be held in Dushore on Sept. 3d, will be an important meet ing, and its work will have a direct bearing on the result of the cam paign. There is general satis faction throughout the county over the candidates who are spoken of, and 60 far as these men are concerned they will enlist the hearty and united Btipport of the party workers. Un der the circumstances the conven tion should give the proper tone to its deliberations and not character ize its proceedings by any unseemly action concerning the recent contest for state delegate, thus embittering any feelings of resentment that may still be harbored by some of those engaged in that struggle. For two years the Republican forces of the county have been in excellent trim and have won victories that at one time would have been impossible. Let us hope that this magnificent situation will he maintained, that the factions in the party will be re united and solidified for an aggres sive warfare on the common enemy so tuat the Republican hold on the party may be clinched and become permanent. The convention, as the representative gathering of the party's workers and leaders can aid materially in this and we believe it will do so. After the ticket is nam ed let the delegates be sent home encouraged in the hope that victory will perch on the Republican banner and that the nominees of the con vention will be triumphant in Nov. The chances for success are bright, but those chances will be materially improved by the exercise of a har monizing influence throughout the county. „ T. J.

I'eminyl vuiiin'M Weaitli. A geography for the use in the public schools recently published in Chicago, gives this State prominence as a mineral producing region, but says nothing of its agricultural re sources. What an error of omission this is, the sensus reports just pub lished show. The first six counties on the continent in the va'neof theit agricultural products ranks as fol lows: Lancaster, Pennsylvania, 7.657,790 St. Lawrence, New York, 6,554,' fit Chester, Pennsylvania, 5,8(53,801 Worcester, Massachusetts, 5,489,13 Bucks, Pennsylvania, 5,411,37< Colusa, California, 5,357,35* There are as many farms in St Lawrence county as in Lancastei but those in the former are valued at $32,000,000, while those of the latter are valued at $69,000,000 Both St. Lawreuce and Colusa conn ties are three times larger than Lan* caster, Pennsylvania has three of the first ci<c coutties of the United States in rgricultural wealth and the State would be great and wealthy had it no resources other than those of agriculture. But her beds of coal, her wells of cil and gas, her de posits of ores, her vared industries, her tree cla l iiill«, moke an empire, whose people have but to use wisely what G«J has given, to be prosper* pus and great, In commenting on the Stale con* tost tho Philadelphia Ledger says: When either Senator Quay or Gov. Hastings can give unqualified proof th it he controls a majority ot the delegates he will have no difficulty in increasing his majority beyond his most extravagant claim. It would nol, indeed, be at all surpris ing to find the convention harmon ious and united after this bitter struggle at the primaries, for all the men engaged in it are politicians, and politicians do not, as a rule, waste their energies on a purpose less or hopeless fight. They know when they are beaten, and accept defeat gracefully. Hon. Henry Johnson, of William sport, tho nestor of the Lycoming county bar, died at his Lome on August 11th, aged eighty-six years. He bCgaD the practice of law in Ly coming county in 1841, and achieved remarkable success. He was a Presidential elector in 1848, and in 1861 was elected to the State Senate, and it was he who introduced the resolution to amend the Constitution giving soldiers in the field the right to vote. He was a delegate to the Republican Nation al Convention at Baltimore in 1864. There comes a credent rumor from Sonestown of an odd little episode j concerning one of the popular young | men of that town, on a recent evening shortly after sundown, which gave rise to an amusing comedy of con flict between a knot of perplexities and the civilized obligation to over come them. While out driving, it is supposed with one of the prettiest school inarms in attendance at the institute, a tire from one of the wheels of his wagon came off, at a place in the road where the creek is hut a few feet from the embank ment. The tire made a bee-line over the bank into deep, deep water and there hurried itself below the surface. The young man at once realized the critical state of affairs, and lost no time in securing a long pole and be gan spearing for the lost portion of his vehicle. After fifteen or twenty tniuutcs struggle with evident des peration to land what he was after, had failed, he resorted to another plan, and with a look of awful des pair in his prespiving features, re moved his shoes and socks, rolliug up his pantaloons, revealing to the lady who was watching the proceed ings with amu-ed interest, that there was a vast difference between him and the Prodical son—he not having been given the fatted "calf." Ask him for the rest. ± WANTED:—To buy oo cnestnut fence posts, delivered to Lopez. Please write stating price, to U. \V. JENNINGS, at Lope/., i'a. Ji INGDALE ITEMS.

Nuw YORY, Au?, 18.—Thedisap ■earanee of Miss Lucretia Clark, the Syracuse school teacher, from I'lain- v ield, N, J., where she went to open i boarding school for girls, remains t mystery.

Everybody interested with Miss Clarke in the establishment of the school has denied that she had any idea of abandoning the scheme, but as she herself stated that she did not intend to abandon it in a letter which Bhe wrote to Mr. Fennerbres que, it looks after nil as though »he might have disappeaer simply to get rid of the obligations she had assum ed in connection with the proposed school.
