Without this no teacher can make a
school successful.
Graft, the defaulting cashier of
franklin, has been tried on several
indictments and been cleared by legal
technicalities. He has one or two
trials to go through with but the pre-
vailing opinion is that he will escape
conviction on all, as the strongest, or
those supposed to be the strongest,
have failed to convict him. Funny,
isn't it.
Mr.. J. D. Patton, the 'joint"
candidate for Congress in this district,
visited his fusion friends iI this county
last week. If he leaves no better inn
preston in the other counties than he
did here, his friends had better "call

"A. II. SiggiDs, Esq, of Hickory,
Forest county, who has been a student
at law in the office OF Hon. j. w.
Lee, in this city, for the past two
years, graduated with honor some
weeks since, having passed a most
creditable and thorough examination
and on Monday last was admitted to
practice in the several Courts of We
mango county. Wherever he may de-
eide to hang out his shingle and en-
gage in the active duties of his pro.
fession, we feel confident that his abil.

gain for him abundant success and
honor. - Venango Citizen.

arrived at his destination, and now
has charge Of the Carman Courier, a
lively paper published short distance
from Mr.. Dunn's town, Crookston. In
the way Of an apology for his first
effort he says: 1--WE don't brag much
about this issue of the Courier. Hav-
ing been but two days in the country
it is but natural that we should not be
up in the WesterA idea. Nevertheless
we are willing to learn and will prom
ise to keep eyes and ears open in the
attempt to master it. A new country,
strange Office, etc, will have to explain
the defects of the present number"
Quite number of the survivors
of the old SD regiment from this
county attended the reunion at War

cess in every particular, and the boys
who went from here, it seems cannot
praise the good people of Warren too
much for tho kindness shown them on
the occasion. Warren ladies beat the
world, they say, in the culinary art,
if the sumptuous dinner set before the
boys was fair example. The next
reunion of this glorious old regiment
will be held in Tionesta, and we know
that our people will not be behind any
of our neighboring towns in extend
ing to the boys a royal welcome.
--Grandpap Mcbride, who has
lived with Mr.. Lawrence for the past
six or seven years, felt a desire to
visit all his children once more, and
