THURSDAY the new station at Hill
lizard commenced pumping oil through the new
pipe line to Cleveland, distance of one hun
dred and four miles. 1t is said that the line
alone will hold over l., 900 barrels, and that II
will take two or three days before the first oil
arrives at the terminus of the line. The Mer-
Ger. Warren and Mantua stations along the
line are not yet in running order
SOME of the delegates who met in
Utica last Wednesday took part in local eele-
brations of the birthday of the man who was
first in war; first in peace and first IN the hearts
of his countrymen. How can any man VINO
has lust taken fresh draught from that foun-
tainhead of patriotism give his voice and vote
for the subversion of the free institutions which
Washington bequeathed to his country

THERE was never time when the
Republican press of Pennsylvania was Ill such
complete accord on a question of either policy
or principle, as il is on the question OF Grants
denomination and the folly of the managers OF
the late State Convention. Scarcely one o1
them can be named that does not proclaim
both the Grant instructions and the declaration
of a unit rule" of the class of blunders that
are worse than crime"
A SHARP swindler is working Law
renee county, selling the right of certain terri
tory for a patent harrow. The way he harrows
the feelings of the agricultural citizens of that
section is to get each purchaser to sign pre-
tended article of agreement, naming consid-
Grafton of six dollars, which by sundry devices
known TO the swindling fraternity turns out to
be a note for six hundred dollars. Some peo-
pie. who caI't afford to take paper, have had
to fork over $500.

In Sugar Greek township, Venango
county. few evenings since, family Went TO
church at school house near their home, leav-
ing several children at home in bed. A brisk
fire was in the stove the oven of which was
filled with kindling. The kindling took fire,
sparks fell out and caught the floor. The chill
dren awoke, got out of the house and went IN
their night clothes and barefooted TO the school
house and gave the alarm. The doxology was
omitted but the house was saved.
FAMINE and disease are ravaging
Russia and Persia this winter. In Russia
since November, 10000 people in two provinces
alone have died OF diphtheria, and whole VII
laces near Walk have become almost depopu-
lated. In Persia there are $4,000 starving
families near Oroomiah. At this distance such
tidings are read with but languid interest
and are easily forgotten, just as most people
have forgotten already that they read last week
that 1 800 houses had been destroyed by
floods in Tripoli.

The Grant boom got set back in
Philadelphia, lately, through the defeat of
Charles Thompson Jones, who has been for
twenty consecutive years member of the City
Council from the twenty-firs ward. Mr. Jones
had the reputation of being the only real
Grant man in the Philadelphia delegation to
the Harrisburg Convention and made boast
of it. His Republican constituents are gener-
ally against Grant, and enough OF them with
held from him their support to elect his DEM
ocratic competitor.
ANOTHER method of curing disease
which overcomes the nauseatng practice of
taking drugs into the stomach will be hailed
with delight by all who are Obliged to take
medicines AS usual the French have got
ahead Of everybody else in this, and the emf
nent DIR. Guilmette has invented pad for
curing kidney diseases, which is said to do it
every time 1t is worn over the kidneys, thus
conveying the remedies, by absorption, directly
to the seat of the disease. All druggists keep
it on sale. Try it.
You can buy Boots and Shoes at
old prices at B. Huselton.
THE row in Maine has not wholly
quieted down yet Governor Garcelon is out in
a card denouncing as false the statement of
Governor Davis that any part of the $4,000
expenses incurred in Excepting the peace" dur
ing the late political difficulties accrued under
his administration. He says the charge is ''as
destitute of foundation as the claim of the
wolf in the fable that the lamb, which was
quietly drinking in the stream below, was
disturbing the waters above" As plea of
injured innocence this is quite pathetic. 1t
ought to draw tears from rock.
AN exchange, under the head of
"Does Advertising Pay 2" remarks The Chi
cago Tribune for column a year, receives,
$26, 900. The New York Herald receives, for
its lowest priced column, $50, ,723, and for its
highest $24s,o00. The New York Daily 7ri-
bune, for its lowest S27 749, and for its highest
$S5, GAS, and these papers are never at loss
for an advertisement to fill their columns.
Their patronage comes, not from any desire to
assist their respective papers, but from busi-
ness men who find it profitable to advertise.

came along in the person of Mrs. Mary +.

MRS ZELL is to have new trial.
The opinion of the Supreme Court, announcing
this decision is based mainly upon the ground
that whenever the reception of improper evil
dence manifestly tends to prejudice the minds
of the jurors against the prisoner the error is
| not cured by the charge Of the Court, after the
argument has closed, to disregard such evil
dence The neglect of this rule has wrought
| serious injury to many an accused person. The
| higher the grade of the alleged crime the more
care should be exercised in guarding the rights
of the prisoner.
