PERSONAL.

That magnificent piece of architcc-
ture, the new Brick NJ. T.. church of
Fredonia erected at a cost of $4,000
was presided over for two years by
that able and eloquent young divine,
Rev. A n. Craft. He was transferred
to Titusville in the autumn of 1873, and
there as in Fredonia, his eloquent and
fearless sermons are listened to by
multitudes. All who have visited the
camp ground on Chautauqua Lake
have been impressed with the power
of his logic and the beauty of his
speech. From overwork and anxiety
connected with his mission, Mr..
Craft is occasionally subject to bilious
attacks. Sensible in this as in all
Others matters, he does not hesitate to
use for his relief, what his judgment
and experience dictate. Neither is he
willing to 'hide his light under 4
bushel," but speaks out in this as in
ether matters, on the side of truth, in
tones that caunot be misunderstood
though brief, yet to the/point. Here
is what he says.
Fredonia, N. v, July lst le72.
DIR. Fenner-Dear Sir-I have used your
Blood and Liver Remedy and Nerve Tonic
and find it the Best Remedy for deranged
state of the liver and bowels of any that
have ever used. Yours truly, A. N. CRAFT

AN OLD DoCUMENT.-We have in
our possession an old document handed
us by Erasmus Morey, of Benezette,
and found by him among some old pa
pers of his father. The document is a
deed for 'six acres of wilderness land
for and in consideration of twenty
three pounds In Province Bills of
credit in hand well and truly paid, y
etc. The winding up of the docu-
ment is sin Witness whereof we have
hereunto sett our hands and seals the
sixteenth day of January and In the
eleventh year of his Majesties Reign
George, by the Grace of God of Great
Britain, France and Ireland, King,
Defender of the Faith, &c. an. DOM,
172i." The acknowledgement bears
date 18th of January 1724. The old pa
per is yellow with age and its history
Unknown might prove very interesting,
or might form the basis for thrilling
romance.

ACCORDING to the official returns
the Republicans will have a majority

one of the most interesting and i'm
portant sessions ever held. Grave
questions may arise, and probably will
arise, and my own hope is that a
spirit of moderation and calmness
may possess every member. 1 would
deprecate excitement and, SO far as
lies in my power, 1 shall try to allay
1t. l sincerely and earnestly hope q
