before we were aware, the sun was going
down the westward slope in way that,
when we noticed it, sent us to our boats
with speed. We were soon gliding over
the water in jovial spirits and at fair
rate of motion toward the camping
place on the shore next horne. The
three boats kept near together, and as
we went we sang Tom Moore's Canadian
boat-song. just as our voices were
ringing out
Row brothers, row, for the stream runs fast
The rapids are near and the daylight is past
sudden breeze almost took the light
umbrella with which I was screening
myself and companion from sun and
wind 1--WE had left our bonnets at the
camp out of my hand. The breeze
subsidized for moment, then came
again more vigorously than before, and
held on steadily. Generally or fire.
quently a stiff breeze rises on those
lakes about or soon after sunset, but
now the sun was certainly half an hour
high. Sudden squalls, especially when
thunder clouds are lowering near, ac-
companied by dangerous disturbance of
the water, are unpleasantly often the
concomitants of boating on those shallow
lakes.
Looking around the horizon we dis
covered the cause of the suddenly rising
wind. A heavy pile of black clouds
coming up behind us in the northwest
we're spreading themselves along the
northern horizon and extending upward
almost to the zenith and at the same
time we began to hear the thunder
mutter and see the lightning play,
though not very near. The weather
wise ones of our party said the shower
was spending itself north of us, but we

The Crawford Co. System.

1t will be seen that the Chairman of
the County Committee, has published
a call for a meeting of that body on
Saturday next. As we understand it,
the object of the meeting is to place
before the people code of the rules
by which they will be governed, for
them to vote upon.
1t will be seen that there is differ
ence between the rules published in 1868
and those which have guided us since
1870; the latter being different by
reason of two sections of the former
having been Topped from it. The rules
of 1868 we publish on the first page of
this issue, and those of 1870 will be
found on the I'd page. This is consid.
cred necessary at this time because of
the ruling of the Congressional Con-
ference, in admitting the Delegates ap-
pointed by the county committee and
denying the others seats, which action
was strictly in accordance with the in
structions Of the State Central Com
mittee. The latter body rules that
custom makes rules, and as it had been
the custom of the county committee
for some years past to appoint and in
truct conferees, the delegates were
pronounced qualified to sit with the
convention.
1t is now agreed by all parties, that
as we are in a Congressional district
where we, as county, really have
voice, it is meet and proper that the
people at their primary election shoult
vote fer the candidates, Congressiona
and Senatorial, and conferees be ap
pointed by the return judges, instruct
ed according to the vote of the peopl
: at the primaries. we would suggest
! therefore, that the county committe
. at their meeting next Saturday, plac
both GETS of rules before the Republi
D cans at their primary elections, an
let them choose by which they Wi
| be guided. Next week we will put
lish the proceedings of the COMMITTEES
that all may see and know all abor
g the question upSn which they will ur
doubtedly be called upon to vote.

A PICTURE WANTED.

We have been requested to inquire
for a daguerreotype of Mrs. DR.. Whit
ley, deceased, who, during the latter
part of her life was a resident of this

and it is supposed that he left it with
some of his friends. If, this notice
meets the eye of the person having the
picture, he will receive the heartfelt
thanks of the daughters of the deceased
by leaving it at this Office. Any one
having knowledge of the whereabouts
of the picture will please leave word
with us.

for short time before going elsewhere.
The "Protection is d mutual compa-
ny, each policy holder paying his pro-
portion of the actual losses and year
ly fee for the company's expenses, in
stead of four or five times amount of
losses paid, as the high rate companies
charge for the assumed purpose OF
keeping reserve for the greater
amount of risks, when policy holders
become old; when by the sworn re-
ports of companies reporting to the N
Y. Insurance Department the losses Of
the oldest companies average less thar
all the other compa nies, showing that
there is no necessity for such reserve
Any person wishing to take a policy
on his life for the benefit of his family
(and who does not feel like protecting
those that are near and dear to him 7
at actual cost and one-third of what i
would cost in a high rate compap,

The Elk Democrat is slashing
away at his contemporaries in that
county in a manner fearful to contem-
plate. Here is what he says Of the
editor of the St. Mary's Gazette:
Brandon came all the way from St.
Mary's on Wednesday of last week to
see the bear perform in our streets. AS
he stood gazing upon the antics of
bruin, with his hat jammed on the
back part Of his head, his hands in his
pockets nearly to his elbows, the to-
bacco Juice oozing from the corners of
his mouth like fermentation round a
beer barrel cork, and one of his we'll
known gingerbread grins enveloping
his classic features from ear to ear, the
by-standers were about equally divid-
ed as to who presented the most ougni'
fed appearance--Br Brandon or bruin.
In addition to this, he last week
gave Parsons, of the Advocdte the ben
eft of column and quarter compli
mentary notice, ending up with three
stanzas of intensely exciting and highl,
original poetry, written upon the spu
of the moment. If these kind of no
tices appear periodically in the Demo
crat hereafter, we shouldn't be sur
prsed to be summoned to attend hi
funeral soon.

Last Wednesday evening Henry
Perry, citizen of Snyder township,
was Shot by a man named Amzia Sib-
ley, near neighbor, resulting fatally
on Sunday morning. 1t appears that
family difficulty existed between the
parties, an improper intimacy existing
between the wife of the murdered man
and Sibley, and that threats of vio-
lence had frequently been made by Sib-
ley in case any interference was made
with him. On the evening the crime
was committed Slbley passed Perry's
house, when he was hailed by some
members of the family and asked to
take home some tinware that had been
borrowed to be used while huckleber-
rying, and while engaged in conversa-
ton Perry ordered him to 60 away,
and not talk to his wife, but he re-
fused to do so, and Perry coming to-
ward him with hoe in hand he pulled
revolver from his pocket, saying that
he would shoot if Perry came any
closer. 1t is not known whether he
made any further movement to strike
Sibley or not, but he fired, the bal
taking effect in the abdomen, passing
into the hip, causing death as above
stated.
A post.mortem examination was
made on Monday morning, by Drs
Sweeney and Mcknight, and an in
quest held by j. w. Green, Esq, be

the evidence in the case, a verdict il
accordance with the above statement
was rendered.

The Tilton- Beecher scandal has
assumed shape, definite charges having
been made by Tilton against Beecher
and Tilton's wife, which both the lat

being tried by committee OF the

when they get through we will know
all about it. Enough has been made
public however to convince us that
Tilton is either fool or knave.

brought us specimen of coal which
was taken from vein on his farm.
The coal is of good quality, and, if
the bank is opened, as Mr.. Heath pro-
poses, it will undoubtedly be the source
from which the town generally will be
supplied with coal. The vein is said
to be about three feet in thickness, and
if properly worked must prove a
source of profit to William; fact
which nobody will be sorry for.
