Mr.. Jas. G. Clark, the Poet-Vo-
calist, is announced to sing in the
Presbyterian church of this place on
Tuesday, the 22d inst. Mr.. Clark has
given entertainments here before, and
they have always been well patronized.
w. West, Harness Maker, adyer-
tises with us to-day, for the first time.
He is located in the Roberts Building
opposite the Rural House, and is pre-
pared to do everything in his line that
may be called for. He keeps every.
thing in stock that his line calls for.
Give him call.
Mr.. j. L. Craig, Agent at Tionesl
ia station, informs US that more freight
is being shipped from this point now,
than at any time since the road was
constructed. This is owning, to a
great extent to Dithridge's Mill, which
ships an average Of one and one. half
cars per day Of box boards. r
Attention is called to the new
advertisement of l.. Spears, Black
smith, and H. w. Roberts, Wagon
Maker, in this issue. Mr.. Roberts is
known to all who are liable to be Gus
toners of his. Mr.. Spears comes
among US we'll recommended, and will
undoubtedly secure fair share of pub
lie patronage. Il

ward Newmanville, with S. G. Sloan,
he killed large black rattlesnake
just beyond S. H. Haslets farm; and
ON Monday, coming back over the.
same route he killed another similar

The Democracy have nominated
a State Ticket as follows: Warren j.
Woodward for Supreme Judge; John
Latta for Lieutenant Governor; JUS
tus F. Temple for Auditor General,
and William McCandless for Secreta-
ry of Internal Affairs. The nomination
of Judge Turnkey for Supreme Judge
would have been more satisfactory to
the Democracy of this part of the
State. With the exception of the
candidate for that office the above
nominees will take an excursion to
Salt River on the 4th Of November.
This is how the special corrsspon-

OF the finest little towns in the sum.
mer time to be found in seven States.
The streets are wide and we'll kent.
and are lined on either side with large
shade trees, which afford the visitor
cool shelter and retreat from the over. |

home is surrounded by beautifully |
laid out lawns the capacious grounds
dotted and enlivened with shrubbery
and flowers of almost every species
known to this climate.
The following in relation to the
new pastor of the Presbyterian church,
is taken from the special correspon-
dence of the Derrick of yesterday:
On Sunday forenoon, Rev. VIM.
Elliott preached his farewell sermon
before the congregation of the Sugar
creek Presbyterian church, having ac-
cepted call to Tionesta. He deliv.
cred an affecting discourse from the
Apostolic Benediction," his remarks
melting not a few of his hearers to
.ears. During a pastorate of three
years Mr.. Elliott has labored with
marked success to build up this inter
sting charge, and his removal to
mother field is deeply regretted by
lis attached people both at Sugarcreek
md Cherrytree. Tse congregation,
lowever, with characteristic enterprise,
will lose no time in securing a compe.
ent pastor, meanwhile engaging such
upply as the Presbytery can furnish
Ill the vacancy is again filed. f..
