from this and Jefferson county, all remember the
"oyster House," on Little Toby, below the mouth
of Brandy Camp. The Elk Democrat says the
hotel, together with the farm thereunto belong
ing, consisting Of two hundred and sxty-two
and half acres was sold to Mr.. p. II. Watson,
Of New York, for the handsome sum of $4,000.
The sale was negotiated by DR.. c. II. Farley, and
is a part Of the extensive sales in real estate
which the DR.. has for some time been and is still
negotiating with company of New York and
English capitalists, who are buying up Elk coun-
ty lands for their mineral value. The hotel, we
understand, is to be enlarged aud renovated, and
furnished with all the modern improvements, the
intention being to make II the headquarters of
the company in this section.

HOLD ON, GENTLEMEN.-We are in
receipt Of perfect avalanche Of communications
on the Modoc movement; but we are compelled
to file them away for the present, because the Ag-
ricutural Society and Sheriff Pie just now
making heavy draft upoa our columns. Be-
sides, If let alone little while, the Modocs viii
scalp themselves. Tho cause for rebellion is "too
thin" and the alliance they are forming too un-
natural. The men who tsmahawked Democrats
last fall, for voting for Greeley, cannot in less
than year turn around and bolt the party nom
inees, and have their neighbors believe that they
are honest in their sudden change Of tactics.-
Moreover, those who cry out clique "ring,"
ETC., will soon prove conclusiyey that they are
praoticing themselves just what they have been
charging upon their neighbors. A very small
"ring" at New Washington, and very shrewd
"clique" at Curwensyillc, is all that there is in
this bolt and they will hurt none worse than them
selves.

In THE WOLF BUsINEss.-The oiti-
1ens of Union, and those residing In the north.
east corner Of Brady, have been greatly annoyed
all summer by pack Of wolves which have in
Tested that neighborhood, destroying their sheep
aud making night hideous with their bowling
Last week Samuel Troy, an old hunter, took it
into his head to capture some of those bowling
''varmints." After batting them for three or four
days he set two traps. The second night after
the citizens supposed, from the continuous howl
ing kept up by the beasts, that all the wolves in
the State must be congrcgated in "Gclnetts wind
fall" about two miles west Of the Summit tunnel,
on the low grade railroad. The bowling was mu-
sic for Troy. lie knew that at least one beast Of
prey was where he would kill no more sheep
Upon repairing to where he had set his traps and
while lodging around in the bush, he espiod one
of the beasts, and raising his "fuscc" to his
shoulder he blaEed away, and Mr.. Wolf rolled
over, giving faint howl. This was scalp num-
bcr one. Passing along to where'he had set
trap, he found il gone, but following the trail he
soon ovorhauled wolf number two and giving
him a dose Of cold lead he surrendered his scalp.
Going on to where he had set the other trap, he
found it gone, and following the trail he soon os-
pied wolf number three in the distance, and
moved on him, dispatched and scaped him.
Thus, in less than two hours, killing three Of
these destructive wild beasts. On Thursday last
he presented his certificate to Treasurer Wilson
and drew his bOunty-thirty-six dollars.

The STATE FAIR.-One of the nota.
bic events Of the year, is to take place at Erie,
on the goth of September. At the most propi.
tous season of our usually bright autumns, the
Pennsylvania State Agricultural Society will hold
Its Annual Exhibition. The display gives fruit
full promise that 1t will be one Of the very best
ever held under the auspices of the Society. The
entries are free to all the world, and the Society
has wisely determined that the books of entries
shall close week before the opening, that com
piete arrangement may be made of the entries Of
fcred for prizes. The time is at that period in
which clear, good weather may almost be counted
certainty. The premiums upon many articles
have been considerably increased, and the list
much enlarged. The arrangements for meeting
each evening Of the Fair are new and excellent
feature. In these meetings farmers may learn
from one another, to the benefit Of the great eco
nomical interests which the Society is SO anxious
to foster. very large display of improved farm
stock will be on exhibition-of fine horses and
samples Of all the best breeds of horned cattle
while the turn out in such hive of industry as
Erie, of manufactured articles useful as machin-
cry, or as aids to the farmer is certain to be wor
thy Of attention. SO many assurances in these
respects have been given, that we feel confident
in stating, that the display in these departments
will be entirely satisfactory. The officers arc now
at work, the books of entry open, and all appli-
cations for space in person or by letter will re-
eeive the most prompt attention from them.
