A Birthday Party.
XX.

Some time ago two or three near friends
and we'll wishers of John NJ. Brown and
wife, of Clay Twp, took it in their heads
to surprise them ON Johns birthday, and
as John is quite jolly, good hearted fel-
low great fun was anticipated If 1t could
only be kept from his knowledge. After
due consideration and the possibility OF a
rainy day, it was thought best to only in
form their near relatives. But on the
morning of Feb. %, the sun shone bright
and ali nature seemed gay, as did the
faces of those who might be seen vending
their way towards the handsome country
residence of John NJ. and his wife. John,
like all good farmers, was out IN the woods
cutting timber, and his good wife was busy
with her morning work, churDing, when a
crowd Of twenty five burst in upon them,
and, oh, the jolly meeting, the hand shak
ing, the greeting, was one never to be for
gotten. John and Margaret were glad to
see their friends come and made merry for
them ALL The friends continued to come
until about seventy arrived, and then We
began to think about dinner. Two large
tables were set in the dining'room and
filled with such stuff as delights the eye
and much more the appetite. And as to
the committee, the two gentlemen that
arranged the tables did their duty nobly
as Gid also the two that took charge of the
heavy ladened baskets Those that were
to take charge of the horses Of the invited
guests were q little backward at first. but
think afterwards made up for lost time.
As for the ladies they did their work
splendidly, and everything went IN like
the workings of clock. When dinner
was announced John was seated at one
end Of the table and bis wife ut the other
end, aud the spaces at the sides were filled
with their brothers and sisters who, l am
sorry to say, were not all there. Some
were detained on account OF sickness and
bad roads, others had trifing excuses, but
verytbing went merry as the marriage
bell. After dinner the brothers and sisters
of John and his wife presented each OF
them with q handsome rocking chair; and
many other presents both useful and orna-
mental were given by his nieces. the
Misses Setloff, Ada, Lizzie, Eta, Mary and
Charles Brown, Mrs. j. 4. Bortmas, Misses
Maggie A. and Tillie c. Brown, John Rel
hart, Amos Young and Jacob B. Hutch
ison, and as John is amply able to supply
himself with everything to make home
comfortable, this goes to show the love
and esteem their friends have for them.
When this was done the young men enjoy
ed ball playing and other sport, the older
ones discussed the road law, the ladies
took their general chat and the more pru-
dent returned home early, and some guests
continued to eat Especially pickle) until
we thought going home was an absolute
necessity, and altogether it was a day OF
joy never to be forgotten, and hope it may
come again. ONE WHO KNOWS.

The members from Allegheny are en-

Mr. Cheesman was one of the oldest and
most intelligent citizens of our county and
regarded by all who knew him as strict
IL honest man man. He raised large

of the county.

Farmers Meeting at Renfrew.

This gatheing of farmers and laborers
was an index to the public pulse to lin
tied extent. Farmers are not class that
protest so long as grievances can possibly
be borne. They had their essays and
talks oa ensilage, under draining, speed at
the Fair aai economy on the farm; and
amused q, MS Ives for couple of hours
by good l.. ard the pleasing perform
ances of their ua title ones i'll compel
| ing for literary prize. We noticed that
every countenance bore more serious
| aspect, more thoughtful, wistful and de-
terinined cast than it did few years ago.
Wonder, surprise, suspicion, fear, love,
doubt, anger and thoughts of the future
lent to every countenance more anxiety
than | ever saw 'efore. The farmers and
poor men of all classes feel that great and
unjust burden rests upon them and they
fear the combination is so strong that 1t
cannot be remedied through the ballot
| box. The corrupting influence OF capt. al
and the fact that it now holds the fort, casts
a shadow of despair on the face of the hon
| est man.
But the teeth that are hid by lips that
| can no longer smile ct crime are set, and
| the hearts that suffer beat in unison, and
the cause of humanity can and will rally
| for the final conflict when the time comes
Miss Bulah Timblin received the prize
| for recitation, with few dissenting voices
in favor of her brother This was well
earned prize, the contest was close and the
| performances seldom if ever excelled OIL
any stage The interest taken and amuse-
ment furnish ed far exceeded the anticipa
tion of any one.
As the rain increased the crowd increas
ed, and the Opera House in the afternoon
and evening was crowded. The tax ques-
ticn appeared to be the natural centre o.
the five hundred minds present.
The unanimous opinion was that corpo
rations should pay their equal share of loca
tax, aud If the people rule this will soon be

On Friday the Shipping bill which
provided for subsidies to steamship line'
was defeated in the House by close vots
147 to las.
On Tuesday it was estimated that the
money appropriated by the present Con
gress exceeded the prospective revenues.
The President nominated W. R. Leeds
of Philadelphia for Marshal of the Extern
Pa. district.
8. c. McCandless, who has been Clerk Of
the O. S. district court for Western Penn
sylvsnia, for many years, resigned his
Office few days ago, and Congressman
Dslzell secured the place for his friend
Frank P. Chase. 1t is said to be worth
four-t thousand year, and is practically for
life or good behavior.
The Central Pacific r. r. got scoring
in Congress one day last week, while the
amendment to the Deficiency bill, striking
out certain items authorizing payment to
it for services was under consideration.
Mr.. Dalzell made speech in which he
claimed that the r. r. Co. was hopelessly
and fraudulently insolvent, and that il now
owes the National Government some
seventy millions. The amendment was
agreed to and the Co. will not get the
three millions, it claimed. The people of
Pennsylvsina are becoming very proud of
John Dalzell; he has brains and he seems
to be honest.
Congress adjourned Wednesday noon.
The last few hours were spent in hearing
the reports Of chairmen of the committees,
and in the efforts of members to have the
rules suspended and private bills passed.
As the hour Of noon approached Speaker
Reed made his farewell speech, and he
received vote of thanks by strict party
vote. When tho gavel fell and the House
was declared adjourned sine die, the Re-
publican members sang Marching
Through Georgia." followed by the long
metre doxology.
The Senate adjourned quietly, Vice
President Morton made his farewell speech
and declared the Senate adjourned.

art The characters of the men were ably
discussed and much honor was given to
oar noble statesmen An who were pres
ent seemed to be much pleased with the
convention and think low that they are
much better prepared to vote for the next
presid ential candidate. The students also
learned how our conventions are conduct
ed and all honor should be given TO them
for taking such an active part in the vel
fare of our nation. May they still contin-
