OUR State Supreme Court holds Allegheny county responsible for the value of property destroyed by the mob in Pittsburgh uuring the riot of 1877. THE quickest way to expel foul air from a well is to heat a bar of iron red hot, and lower it down into the water; the sudden for- mation of steam is effectual. AN exchange suggests that if Gen. Grant really wants to know what fame is he must enter the next international walking match and carry off the belt. Gus FALLER has been displaying some good taste lately in the arrangement of fine goods in Schneideman's clothing store windows. Gus is a good clerk. AT the Post Office is a card giving the distance from the State Normal School Edinboro. There should be one giving the distance from a good education.

Field, Tilden once, when in England, employed a genealogy hunter to seek out his ancestry and make a genealogical tree of the Tilden family from its origin down to himself.

DICK, our Congressman, says that while he and his party of four were trav- eling through Great Britain this summer, they were asked questions concerning the producing and manufacturing interests of this country that indicated a degree of interest there which has not heretofore existed.

UNTIL quite recently a complainant who had been refused an injunction by a judge of any Court of Common Pleas in this State was, "under the then existing state of things, prevented from carrying the case further.

THE finest line of hosiery, at lowest prices, can be seen at Charles Grieb's, Butler. A GENTLEMAN took breakfast at a hotel in Middletown, N. Y., the other day, and when he broke open a roll, a handsome gold ring rolled out. For an instant he thought he was at a church fair, but it was not long before the cook, who was in great trouble over her loss, claimed the ring. And he was lucau enough to observe that if he had broken open a roll and found a sixteen-dollar "switch" in it, not a woman ia the house would have claimed it. THERE are wars, and rumors of more. There's the Afghan war, and the South American war, and the Russian expedition into Central Asia. Then there's the difficulty between Greece and Turkey, which will pro- bably be ended only in blood; China and Japan are preparing to settle by the arbitra- ment of war the question of ownership of the Loochoo Islands ; aud last, though not least, at present, is the almost inevitable conflict be- tween Egypt and Abyssinia. Of a truth, the war dogs ought to have a surfeit of bloodshed just now. IF you wish a good education attend the State Normal School, Edinboro. "DIDST ever feel, my love," said he? The twain 'neath starbeams strolling?- "A thrill no tongue can e'er express, And yet 'tis vain controlling, A something that o'erwhelms the soul Ami quite o'eroomes the senses, A ceaseless throb that through each vein Its influences dispenses? Can'st tell what it is, my own ?" Then fondly looked he at her ; "In course you goose," she tartly said, "It's corns, that's what's the matter." Yonkers Gazelte. THE Cleveland Herald stated that there are only twenty-nine United States sol- diers in Georgia. Whereupon the Atlanta Constitution in a retort courteous, iuforms it that there are nearly that number in one regi- mental brass band alone which is now in op- ration iu that State. But what have brass bands to do with it? It is not a question of brass bands at the polls, is it ? We thought it was bayonets. If you will clearly convince us that it is a part of the Radical plot to intimi- date lawful voters by stationing brass bands at the polls we will take back every word we have said and join the Confederacy.

ALL the Soldiers' Orphans' schools ! of the State are now in full operation, the I winter terms having commenced on the Ist of ' September, during which month much reorgan- | ization, consolidation and other detail work ,' was done under the immediate direction of the ' Superintendent, so that the schools are now in j as successful progress as they have ever been ! since there organization.

During the last few days tests have been made with the Sher- man process, by direction of the agent, Mr. D. Larued, under the superintendence of Mr. L. M. Armor, General Superintendent of the works. The process was subjected to the most severe tests that could be given it in the way of running very thin plate with metal at the last of the heat, when it had become slug- gish. One test was the running of the metal from the cupola into a larce ladle, then incor- porating the process in this ladle and, after holding it some time in check, pouring it into smaller ladles that had not been heated and finally, (after another holding in check,) pour- ing it into the mould, which contained a very thin plate. Here is where the process showed its great advantage, in holding the metal so long in fluid state. So satisfactory was the result of this test that the workmen agreed that without the Sherman process, or its equiv- alent, no such castings could have been ob- tained. These castings when taken out of the sand showed a much cleaner surface than any made by the ordinary methods. Though not knowing the composition of the materials which the Sherman process incorporates with the metal, the Superintendent is highly pleased with tiic results obtained and pronounced the tests satisfactory.?

[Communicated.] Notica Is hereby given to the citizens of But- ler county that having purchased of Mr. T. B. all his right, title, interest and claim to make, use and vend to others the exclusive right to use the slip (jap in the common rail fence, all persons infringing on said patent will soon be called upon by the collector, accompanied by an attorney, for the purpose of collecting all moneys due for infringement on said patent. Every person using said patent will be ex- pected to pay at the rate of live dollars for every one hundred acres. Please have the money ready when we call, as we wish to "strike while the iron is hot." We positively refuse to take silver in sums over one dollar, as we expect to collect quite a sum of money and the weight would be bur- densome to our "old gray," whose bet- ter days are o'er, having passed her one score years and ten. Now don't get fussy and scold, and raise an ex- citement and refuse to pay, for we will threaten you with the United States Court. With those who will not scare wc will compromise, provided they do not call us hard names nor charge us big board bills. Now don't try to avoid paying by saying it is a swindle. Is not this a free country ? Have I not as good a right to swindle the people of Butler county as any other person ? I'm inclined to think that a gap in a rail fence is often of more benefit to the farmer than a slide gate. P.

Of a truth, thewar dogs ought to have a surfeit of bloodshedjust now.

"DIDSTever feel, my love," said he?The twain 'neath starbeams strolling?-

"A thrill no tongue can e'er express,And yet 'tis vain controlling,

A something that o'erwhelms the soulAmi quite o'eroomes the senses,

A ceaseless throb that through each veinIts influences dispenses?

Can'st tell what it is, my own ?"

Then fondly looked he at her ;"In course you goose," she tartly said,

THE Cleveland Herald stated thatthere are only twenty-nine United States sol-diers in Georgia. Whereupon the AtlantaConstitution in a retort courteous, iuforms itthat there are nearly that number in one regi-mental brass band alone which is now in op-ration iu that State. But what have brassbands to do with it? It is not a question ofbrass bands at the polls, is it ? We thought itwas bayonets. If you will clearly convince usthat it is a part of the Radical plot to intimi-date lawful voters by stationing brass bands atthe polls we will take back every word wehave said and join the Confederacy.

THE Co-operative Foundry, at Bea-ver Falls, is still very busy. During the lastfew days tests have been made with the Sher-man process, by direction of the agent, Mr. D.Larued, under the superintendence of Mr. L.M. Armor, General Superintendent of theworks. The process was subjected to themost severe tests that could be given it in theway of running very thin plate with metal atthe last of the heat, when it had become slug-gish. One test was the running of the metalfrom the cupola into a larce ladle, then incor-porating the process in this ladle and, afterholding it some time in check, pouring it intosmaller ladles that had not been heated andfinally, (after another holding in check,) pour-ing it into the mould, which contained a verythin plate. Here is where the process showedits great advantage, in holding the metal solong in fluid state. So satisfactory was theresult of this test that the workmen agreedthat without the Sherman process, or its equiv-alent, no such castings could have been ob-tained. These castings when taken out of thesand showed a much cleaner surface than anymade by the ordinary methods. Though notknowing the composition of the materials whichthe Sherman process incorporates with themetal, the Superintendent is highly pleasedwith tiic results obtained and pronounced thetests satisfactory.?

Notica

Is hereby given to the citizens of But-ler county that having purchased ofMr. T. B. all his right, title, interestand claim to make, use and vend toothers the exclusive right to use theslip (jap in the common rail fence, all

persons infringing on said patent will

soon be called upon by the collector,accompanied by an attorney, for thepurpose of collecting all moneys duefor infringement on said patent. Everyperson using said patent will be ex-pected to pay at the rate of live dollarsfor every one hundred acres.

Please have the money ready whenwe call, as we wish to "strike whilethe iron is hot." We positively refuseto take silver in sums over one dollar,as we expect to collect quite a sum ofmoney and the weight would be bur-densome to our "old gray," whose bet-ter days are o'er, having passed herone score years and ten. Now don'tget fussy and scold, and raise an ex-citement and refuse to pay, for we willthreaten you with the United StatesCourt. With those who will not scarewc will compromise, provided they donot call us hard names nor charge usbig board bills. Now don't try to

avoid paying by saying it is a swindle.Is not this a free country ? Have Inot as good a right to swindle thepeople of Butler county as any otherperson ? I'm inclined to think that agap in a rail fence is often of morebenefit to the farmer than a slide gate.
