BETH JONES, aged 10 years, months aud 22
days.
The deceased was the widow of james Jones,
conductor on the p. & E. r. r., who was acci-
dentally killed at Renova about eleven months
ago. The severe shock of the loss of ler hus-
band, caused her to become heart -broksn, and
soon that monster disease consumption made in
roads upon her system, which, after the lapse of
a few months, claimed its victim. During her
sickness she rendered no complaints and bore
her illness with Christian fortitudeS and when
death came to her relief she passed away in full
faith of her Rcdeemer's love. She aves little
daughter some six months ofagc. Thus q young
family has passed away within the short space
Of eleven months, leaving an orphan to battle its
way through this cold and ,uncharitable world.

The grass crop will be light one this season.
We observe that the County Commissioners have
commenced cutting and harvesting the hay crop
on the clover and timothy farm surrounding the
Court House. We do not, however, think the
commissioners are entitled to mach credit for the
manner in which they have cultivated the soil on
this little farm. We would advise them to read
Horace Greeley's late work, entitled ''what
know about Farming" unless they eau be iu-
duced to convert the ground into handsome
lawn, with evergreens, as was originally design
ed. 1t is true that the proceeds of the grass
crop might be useful in reducing "thcm s94, ,OO0'
which hang like an incubus over the county
finances. But they should not carry their ideas of
economy too far, and sacrifice o little to taste,
and after reading the above book make another
attempt to restore and replace the dying and
diapdated trees and shrubbery that have been
struggling for existence for the last five years in
the Court House yard.

A FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY IN SUNDURY-A
charter having been obtained, some time since,
for the northumberland County Fire Insurance
Company" our citizens should make an effort to
have it organized without delay. The Charter
members are composed of some of the most re-
spectacle and influential citizens of our county,
whose names would give the company character
and standing, financially and otherwise. large
sum, believe at least S50O00 is sent out of Nor
thumberland county every year, in the shape of
premiums on fire insurance, that might Just as
well be kept at home, which could easily be done
through the working and proper management of
well directed and well managed local insurance
company. Having our own insurance company,
whose officers and managers would be thoroughly
Known throughout the county, it would afford an
additional guarantee of safety to insurers in
knowing that the officers of the company were
perfectly reliable men, and would not counte-
nance reckless speculation in the use of the funds
of the company, which has caused the failure of
scores of our large city companies. Williams
port, Wilkesbarre, Danyile, Minersville, and q
large number of other towns in our State, have
prosperous and successful local insurance COM
panies, and We do not see why we should not
nave one in Sunbury. We believe at least nine
tcnths of the insurance policies of foreign COM
panies, on property in Northumberland county,
would speedily be cancelled, and the insurance
taken in our local company, in less than one
year from the date of its organization. We hope
to sec an immediate effort made TO put into organ
ization and successful working condition the
northumberland County Fire Insurance Com
pany."
