MARRIED..

On the 9Th inst. at s. T.. NJ, In tho Evan.
gelical Church, Millheim, Pa, by the Rev.
NJ. j. Carothers, Mr.. j. Ii. Thomas, o; York,
Pa, and Miss Emma f., daughter OF Rev. C..
+. Deininger, Of this place.
We were going To say that this wedding
created quite 4 sensation In town, but that
expression would be a little too common
all weddings are sensational Everybody
more especially the female perSuaS aSlon-wants
" know n II about them, so then we will say
that this was the first wedding ever cee-
hrated In n church In Millheim, and that the
well arranged programme was carried out
10 the letter. We would fain describe mi
nutely the appearance and attire OF the cou.
pie, hui we are altogether too blunt and
practical not sufficiently schooled In jenkins
ism for that and so we will GeneraliIe by
saving that bath bride and groom looked
very well, and that their attire was amply
sufficient 10 be married in.
We had several important duties To AT
tend to, viz: To see 10 it that the church
was well filed, To make q little speech and
deliver the stamps to the band and 10 do
our poor self justice at 4 table laden 10
groaning with such variety OF things good
to eat, ''tor numerous Ia mention - all OF
which we did as gracefully and S0lid,p rs
we knew how, and for which We expect 70
have, in apdtion To adal"ouS wedding cake
already received, the lifelong thanks of the
eappy couple. "ELbeS 1H triRke" would
have made this n FIRST class DetttSch we'd
ding as they have them In tho Idt6rdnd.
The happy couple have our kindcSt wishes.
Nav their union be full of Joy and sunshine,
without cloud 10 obscure their pathway
through lie.

THE OIL EXCITEMENT IN LOCK
HAvEN.-On Saturday three COM
mittees, composed of Messrs. Boggis
and Blesh, HoutZ and Joseph Can
dor, JIG. Brown and L. B. Schuyler
were out to get subscriptions to-
wards defraying the expenses of put
ting down a test well in the vicinity
of Lock Haven. The joint result
was about 81 200 stock in S25 shares,
with promises that 1T is thought can
be relied upon to bring this up $400
or $500 more within a few DAYS. 1t
is the purpose Of the committee to
renew their efforts and keep at it till
they get the required sum, about
$4,000, and they appeal to the bust
ness men and property holders to
come forward and meet their require
ments, so as to settle the question
whether or not there is oil at this
point. If SO, it will be the best in
vestment ever made at this point.
LII not, no serious injury will occur
to any one, as the losses will be
small. Soon asthe amount is raised,
the organization will take place and
a we'll be put down at once at such
point as a majority may determine.

NOT ENDORSED.

1t is a significant Strd,c, and a
very thick and heavy one at that,
that Mr.. Hayes has thus far failed
to rec eive the endorsement OF even
Il single Republican county conven-
tion vet held in Pennsylvania. The
Philadelphia Radical convention
tabled a resolution expressing conf
dence in the President. In LancaS-
ter his ''Excellency" was quietly ig-
nored at the meeting of the return
Judges. In Bradford an issue was
made at the primaries 10 secure an
endorsements of our b0gtS President,
and was lost but it was in Allegha-
nv where opposition to his Fraudu-
lency showed itself the most bitter
and determined. A resolution to
endorse the Administration was met
with perfect storm of opposition,
and was twice tabled. All this
shows very plainly even to the naked
eye, that there Is trouble in the Rad
ical camp. These four counties are
the Radical strongholdS in Pennsyl-
vania, and gave a majority for
Hayes of 2T3l7-nearly twice the
nopainal majority in the State.
If Mr.. Hayes can not command
the confidence and support of the
party that tried so hard to elect him
and afterwards counted him III
against a majority of popular
votes as we'll as of states, he soon will
be a la Johnson, a President without
a party. Our Republican friends by
their conduct show, that they them
selves do not believe that Hayes was
elected, or that they are sorry he
was. Their leaders feel diSpirited,
their ranks are demoraliZed, and
they will doubtless let matters go
with but n feeble show OF effort 10
carry the elections next fall, IL
PENNSYLVANIA and Ohio. In our
own state the contest involves q
Supreme Judge, State Treasurer,
and Auditor General, while in Ohio
q Governor and Legislature are 10
be elected, and if the Democrats
carry the state, as now seems appar-
ent, it will insure another Democrat.
&c q. S. Senator to succeed MIR. Stan-
lev Matthews. The outlook is all
together encouraging for the Demo-
crats. Courage.

For several months past the grim
monster, Death, has been gathering
in rich harvest, from amongst us,
summoning his victims Indiscrimin-
ately from all classes and ages. The
prominent and useful citizen, the
kind and respected neighbor, the
father, the mother, the beloved wife,
or faithful husband, yea, the darling
infant in the cradle-all, have fal-
len before the great but impartial
Destroyer. Death is the leveler of
us all. He is inexorable, for when
he beckons we must obey, whether
ready or not. And when we stand
at his awful threshold, ready to en-
ter, eternity before US, the world be-
hind what does it really matter
what station III life we have occu-
pied, whether we have amassed great
wealth or been poor &; whether we
have written our names on the page
of fame, or passed through life in
humble obscurity-so we have acted
we'll our part, and improved the
talents God has given us for our own
and our fellows good. Reader, do
we think Of this as frequently and as
seriously as we should !?

On Saturday, the End inst. Lester,
son OF {: III. Hassenplug, was drown
ed while in the river swimming,
with several other boys, at Lewis
burg. Lester was in the water not
over a few minutes when he was
heard to cry out "I'm drowning"
But little attention was paid to this
at first, as 1T was habit of the boys
to do SO when in swimming. Upon
again hearing the cries of the boy a
Mr.. Wagner, who was standing on
the shore, hastened to his rescue
but.alas, too late. Thevital spark had
fled. 1t is supposed that he died as
much from fright as from drowning.

Before the New York Woran's
Suffrage Society, in Mrs. Or. LoZI-
er's house at 23S West Forteenth
street, last evening, eX-Gcv. Lee Of
Wyoming Territory said that ne had
seen women acting IN the capacity
of Sheriffs, Justices of the Peace,
ConSta6les, and CoroneTs, and that
they were a great success. AS jur-
ors, they are unegualled. 1t seemed
strange, at first, to address the Jury
as Ladies and gentlemen of the
jnry." Mrs. Julia Weller, n Justice
of the Peace, had had her husband
brought before her for being drunk.
She sentenced him for the full pen
alty-SiX months Imprisonment.
Gov. Lee described a scene at q
local election. There was great eX-
citement, pistols and bowie knives
were in every hand, and words that
could not be found IN any current
religious work were being used free
ly. Suddenly there was a shout
1.-The ladies are coming to cast their
votes ;" and all Was still. ''If the
ladies had not appeared" Gov. Lee
said, II think that a number of po-
liticians would have been offered up
on their country's altar"
