small matter,
MILToN.-Our editorial friends in Milton
have had good time the past week. Col
Heineu gave grand entertainment to q large
number o. his friends on Thanksgiving day
and the editors always supposed to be hun
gry) did ample justice to the good things pro.
vided for the occasion.
The Williamsport Brass Band paid visit
to Milton, on Thanksgiving Gay, aud after
serenading two of the Hotels and one Of the
editors, returned home. The editor Of the
1Gltonian and he of the Chronicle, of Lewis
burg, continue their interesting quarrels
about the division question, and by way Of
reproach Lewisburg is called "Tars-town."-
Awful According to the Democrat three
sewing societies have been formed by the
young ladies, and vast amount of gossip is
anticipated. A new steam saw mill is about
being built by Messrs. Chamberlin, CELERY
and Runkle.
DANvILLE.-The Inteligencer informs us
that Thanksgiving day was very generally OBJ.
served in that place by opening of churches
and closing places of business. In this place
the churches were also opened. but the effect
was not sufficiently strong to close the doors
of business places. The proprietors of the
Rough and Ready rolling mill are building ar
addition to their works.

us up your boat, when finished, to Danville
with load Of humanity, and let us see wha
| can be done with steam on the North Branch.
Very patronising, indeed Our neighbor.
had better take care of their laurels, or in {
few years they may find Danville mere su
burb compared to our extended city-il
prospect.
The Democrat urges upon all citizens tn,
necessity of taking a county paper. w
second the motion, and think it duty Of ever,
one to do so. Who knows but that Law
may be passed some of these days, disqualify
ing man from voting at the election, VIII
has not taken and paid for county paper,
year previous to the election.
PoTrsvILLE.-The Miners Journal denies
that the business condition Of Schuylki
county has been prostrated. A number G
coal operators have failed, and the profit
have been much less than last year, but as
mass Schuylkill county is as prosperous a
any other in the state. An effort is maxim
to construct road from Allentown to MOI
ristown, aud the road from Port Clinton I
