PRosPECTUs-"Of making many books
there is no end" and the multiplication of
newspapers is the popular source of educat-
ing the people. We are aware that the idea
is quite preyelent that Bradford County has
too many papers, but with the large number
not one is wholly devoted to the interest of
the great producing class-the agricultur-
ists-and at the urgent solicitation of some of
the best practical farmers in the county, we
have decided to commence about the first of
the new year, u local agricultural weekly,
especially adapted to the wants of the farmers
Of this section. The contributors to the
paper will embrace the best practical farmers
in the county, and we shall aim to make it
of real value to every tiller of the soil, dairy
Imam and stock raiser in the county, by CIV
ing the results of experiments by those in
whom the classes interested have confidence,
and whose success in business is an evidence
TO thorough practical knowledge.
The paper will contain a condensation of
the general news and the fullest local notes.
Fuller particulars hereafter.

The origin of the term Brother Jona-
than, as applied to the United States, is
as follows: When General washington,
after being appointed commander of the
Revolutionary army, went to Massa-
chusetts to organize it, he found great
want of ammunition and other means
of defense and on one occasion it
seemed that no means could be devised
for the necessary safety. Jonathan
Trumbull the elder was then Governor
of the State of Connecticut; and the
General, placing the greatest reliance
on his Excellency'sjudgment, remarked,
eve must consult Brother Jonathan
on the subject" the General did SO,
and the Governor was successful in sup
plying many of the wants of the army;
and thenceforward-w difficulties
arose and the army was spread over the
country-it became by-phrase, 1--WE
must consult Brother Jonathan" And
the name has now become a designation
for the whole country, as John Bnll has
for England.

There is one good feature about capi-
tai punishment. While the hanging
of one murderer may not deter another
man from committing the same crime,
the one who is hanged can never give
the public any more cause to worry,
and such bouquets as did not reach him
in time can be taken to hospitals and
asylums.

Franklin Oliver bought $500 acres
Of forest in Illinois fifty years ago, built
. log house in the centre of the tract,
and has lived there ever since. He
became noted for eccentricities, and it
Is of him that the story is told about
two Methodist ministers, who, having
no money to pay for the lodging and
breakfast which he had given them,
were compelled to preach a sermon
apiece to him as the sole congregation.
Oliver resolved never to allow bit of
his land to be cultivated, declaring that
he would leave it at his death just as
he had found it; but five years ago, at
the age of 80, he suddenly changed his
purpose and habits. From being
woman-hater, he turned to loving the
sex with the ardor Of youth. He wooed
several girls and women ut time, and
won their promises to marry him by
giving them pieces of his land. In that
way he has rid himself Of a great part
Of his own extremely valuable property,
and his heirs, in order TO save the re-
mainder, have had him judicially de-
clared incapable Of managing his bust
ness.
