Clarington improves. A two-room
school house is being built, on the site
formerly occupied by the old school house,
now too small to accommodate the pupils
belonging to the school, and too much out
of repair for school purposes if large
enough. The new building will be neat
and commodious, and will add much to
the appearance of the place. Within the
last two years new parsonage has been
built, belonging to the NJ. Il. Church, and
partly finished. The good people Of the
church have been giving a series of ice
cream suppers at the parsonage toward
raising funds to pay off the debt incurred.
The last quarterly meeting of the NJ. f.
Conference year for the charge was held at
Redclyffe, Saturday and Sunday last.
Quite number from other parts OF the
charge were present, and pleasant time
was had. Rev. David Steele of the U. b.
Church preached at Jacob Maze school
house on Sunday night.
mail runs daily from Clarington TO
Vowinckel and return by way of Cooks
burg, leaving Clarington in the morning.
A daily mail runs from Redclyffe to
Marienville and return, leaving Redclyffe
in the morning some time. The old route
from Clarington to Marien and return has
been abandoned. There is daily mail
from here to Broolsville and return. And
a mail, daily, we think, but il not on al
ternate days, beginning on Monday, from
here to Beach Bottom (Arroyo p. o. and
return. Arroyo postoffice was formerly
at Irwin's Mill, two miles below Beach
Bottom, and at the place where the Ridg-
way road leaves, or did leave the Clarion
river. But the P. o. and name have both
been Gifted" and carried on up to Beach
Bottom saw mill and tannery. Landlord
Henderson of the Reid House, here, is
contractor on the Arroyo route. He sold
out his contract to q Mr.. George, man
upwards of 60 years of age, not long ago.
On his second trip Mr.. Georges team ran
off and threw him out breaking a limb
and otherwise injuring him. Mr.. Hen
derson again has charge of the route. A
mail runs from Arroyo to Ridgway and
return, leaving Arroyo in tho morning
and returning in the afternoon, and failing
to connect with the Clarington mail either
way. We have no Sunday mails.
Rev. Jenkins, colored, who is familiar
to many in your end of the county, as
sisted by other talent held camp meeting
here this Summer not long ago. From
here he went up the river to Spring
Creek, and is now in Ridgway.
A number of our young people hav'
taken it into their heads and hearts to wee
this Summer. Here's our hand and ou
voice wishing them a good voyage owe
the matrimonial sea. May no squalls the,
shall encounter find them unprepared
nor be of such magnitude as to bring dis
aster. May the sun (?) of their happines
be always a star of the first magnitude
and their da-(y)s be many and full q
beauty.
Judge Coon is interesting himself littl
in the culture of German Carp. He use
out" nearly 40 young carp this Summer
and had previously, about years age
"planted" about 20. The first ones he wa
somewhat unfortunate with. But all ar
doing nicely at present. He has just
very few fully feet in length.
The public road from Redclyffe
Marien is better than we ever saw it be
fore. Barrin' few chuck holes it is goot
And these could be now with little outlay
and should be, repaired.
Marienville has improved wonderful
in the past 3 years. A gentleman in bus
ness there informed us that there wei
now there in active operation l6 stores I
various kinds. All the hotels 1--WE thin
there are g. have all the custom they ca
take care of. The extract works near th
, town is being pushed rapidly. The con
pany, we are told, agreed that they woul
, not put in a company store, nor bull
houses for their employees. This agre,
ment is decided advantage to the tow
in general. Building lots that sold for s.
. last Spring have more than trebled
, value. Ordinary houses rent for SO p'
D month. Marienville has a good scho
house, built . years ago, and located a
most, or quite, in the limits of the tow
but with plenty of room outside as well
l inside. jerks now pays cash for teache
S but tho wages are not quite so good
t formerly all around. BY the way, Barne
= pays $50 per month to teachers-bett
r than she has paid for a long time.
Business is brisk all along the p. &
= r. II. through the county.
