city presents its busiest and iveliest aspect The
markets at that period are abundantly supplied
with every variety of sea food, while the numer-
Gus places of resort in the vicinity have lost none
of their attractions.

A High Endorsement.

We were shown a few days since letter from
our well known fellow-citizen, DIR. .. +. Hill
who, it will be remembered, left here some
months ago to obtain treatment for his eyes
from the best oculists of Europe. Before leav-
ing here by advice of DIR. Ramsey and other
friends, he consulted with DR.. Swan NJ. Bur-
nett, of this city, studious, growing young
man, who has made the diseases of the eye a
speciality Dr. Burnett made careful care
full diagnosis and gave full and careful
opinion of the case. Though others in
the city differed from him, DIR. Burnett
felt confident his views were correct. In the
letter referred to. Dr. Hill says it is but just to
DR.. Burnett, to say that the best Oculists in
America and Europe, after full examinations
give opinions that fully endorse the original
view of the case presented by DIR. Burnett. II
is testimonial to his skill which we very cheer
fully make public upon our own motion and
solely to encourage a worthy young gentleman
whose professional future promises to be a sue
cessful one.
Dr. Hills friends will be glad to learn that by
rest and treatment he hopes to regain the use OF

The Next Legislature.

EDITORS CHRONICLE Seeing that the can
didates for the Legislature in some of the adj
joining counties have already announced them
selves, / thought it would not be improper to
make few suggestions relative to our candi-
date for Representative from Knox and as our
opponents had the exquisite pleasure of electing
their man two years ago, without opposition, I
suppose they will not take it hard if We put a
candidate for this year and elect him. too.
But what / intended to say was this, that no
man be in hurry to announce himself as can
didate for the Legislature, but thatthe people
choose and call out their man. Let Republicans
go to talking the matter over among themsel-
YES and then let the wishes of the majority be
ascertained in the most practical way, say
though the Executive Committee or by calling
a county meeting no matter how, SO that the
choice of the people is ascertained. If success
was all we wanted, we need not be very choice
about candidate, for we are fully able to sue
coed with only a common man. But instead of
having man that the party will have to push
through, we want man that will give strength
to the party,
In conclusion, I will say that if we would al
ways have the Office to hunt the man, instead OF
the man hunting the Office, we would have less
room for complaint of unfaithful servants

Prof. Stoves Mistake.

An exchange gives the following anus
ing anecdote of Rev. Prof Stowe, hus-
band of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe:
While visiting at little town in
Massachusetts,, last summer, Prof. Stowe
desired friend to secure q horse and
vehicle to take himself and wife to q
town nine miles distant, where he de-
sired to consult some genealogical re-
cords. His friend said that he would do
his best, but flat there were no decent
turnouts in the village. A little in ad-
vance of the hour appointed, DR.. Stowe
noticed a phaeton at the door of his host,
and, hastily summoning his wife, entered
t and started on his journey. To his
surprise the horse was a very fleet one,
and the phaeton exquisite, with its silk
and sating Innings, ivory finishing and
easy springs. Bowling along on his
journey, the doctor expressed his great
delight, and announced his intention of
securing the Establishment for the season.
Arriving at his destination, he fastened
the horse and went to work upon the
dusty records at the town hall. He had
been thus engaged for nearly an hour,
when he was suddenly interrupted by
town whence he started, who exclaimed {:
CDR. Stowe, have you been stealing a
horse and phaeton :"
To the astonished doctor it was then
revealed that he had by mistake taken
the establishment of a newly-married
Episcopal clergyman, who had come to
call upon the doctors host, and who was
astonished, an leaving, to find his beauti-
ful turnout wedding present-gone,
and replaced by an old worn-out horse
and chaise that had been brought there
by the livery stable-keeper for DR..
Stowe.
A stern chase ensued, but the doctor
was not captured until he had reached
his destination, as stated, whence, after
mutual explanations, he drove home in
the old chaise. The comment of the
Episcopal clergyman on the case was
this:
"This comes, DR.. Stowe, OF not attend
ing the church where the command
ments are read every Sunday"
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1872-03-28
The Late Eclipse.

A gentleman who writes from Bonn
bay, the station at which Professor
Lockyer, of the British Eclipse Expe-
dition, viewed the recent eclipse, writes
to Nature as follows: at does not hap
pen more than once in IA lifetime to see
such Il glorious and magnificent sight as
that from which l have just returned
that is, the total eclipse of the sun. l
have seen many eclipses before, but
never anything to equal this. 1 was
engaged to go with the Morgans to the
top of the hill to see it. Got up at six,
and found it a lovely morning rode up
to Morgan's, about half mile, carrying
with me glasses smoked glass and sun
hat. Got there before seven and found
the eclipse already begun. Got out two
mirrors and watched the hole in the sun
grow bigger and bigger. 1t began from
the top, and we all went off to the
highest point on the hill, from whence
we could see all Ooly and the mountains
around. When the eclipse got so far
the cold on the mountain grew much
greater, the grass was SO wet that no
ones boots kept it out, the feet and
hands grew cold, and with your back to
the sun the light over the country was
like the twilight or the earliest dawn.
Gradually the lower streak got thinner
and thinner, until at last there shone q
light like the famous lime-light, and in
moment or two that went out, and
the sun was totally concealed many
stars Were visible, the whole country
looked dark-that is, half dark, like
moonlight-the crows stop cawing, and
for two minutes and half the total
eclipse lasted, a sight shall never for
get, and then the lime-light again ap-
peared at the bottom rim of the SUM-
and gradually more and more of him
appeared, the crows began at once. and
the cocks began to crow, the shadow
now was inverted, and by degrees got
small, until at nine o'clock the eclipse
was over. l cannot but suppose that the
scientific men must have had grand op-
portunities of observation, and that to-
days pencil will carry home many a
description. Anything more beautiful,
more sublime, or perfect it would be
impossible to conceive"
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1872-03-28
4 Plea for Tolerance.

A large and varied survey of the
miseries of mankind has led me to con-
clude that every man is a being much to
be pitied. One cannot be angry with
men, or be otherwise than tolerant of
all their errors and shortcomings when
one thinks that most men have teeth
that some men shave--that we have to
get up and go to bed (both of them de-
testable operations) every day-that
there is hardly any place, however re-
mote, in which there is not more than
one delivery of letters in the course of
the twenty-four hours-that any human
being, however foolish, can annoy any
other human being, however sensible
Though thousands of miles should Sc
parate them, by informing him abruptly
in brutal telegram of all the unpleasant
things that can happen-that pleasures
are taken in such large doses as to be-
come rather like poisons, dinners lasting
sometimes three hours-that we have to
live with creatures, very like and yet
very unlike ourselves, who are strangely
attractive to us, and whom we fondly
and vainly endeavor to manage they
every day in these times becoming
more unmanageable)-that children will
scream at the top of their voices and
wear out shoes in the most reckless man
ner-that most of our abodes are but
vertical combinations of sewers-that
there is no good weather anywhere; it
it always too hot, or too cold, or too
rainy, or too shiny, or too misty, or too
dazzling-that old ladies will have the
windows up i'll railway carriage when
the wind is south, and young ladies the
windows down when the wind is east
that there is such thing as public
speaking, and that no one can say or
write anything with reasonable brevity
i say again that male human being
is creature whom one cannot regard
but with the utmost pity; and even his
slight alterations from perfect virtue are
results which may naturally be expected
to follow from the adverse circumstances
that surround him.-MacmHlan's 4Ha-
OazinP
