" He that has much to do, will do something wrong, and of that wrong must suffer the consequences ; and if it were possible that he should always act rightly, yet when such numbers are to judge of his conduct, the bad will censure and obstruct hlm by malevolence, aud the good sometimes by mistake."-SAMUEL JOHNSON.

KNIVES,
MANUFACTURED EXCLUSIVELY BY US, UNDER REYNOLDS' PATENTS for Tempering Steel without the aid of any liquids, received the only award at the Great National Implement Trial, held at Auburn, in 1866. They possess the fol- lowing superior qualities :
1. They are made with a fine Cutlery Temper at the edges.
2. They hold only a Spring Temper at the center and at the heel.
3. They are warranted perfectly uniform, every knife being exactly alike in temper.
4. We warrant they can be ground from 8 to 10 times without losing their cutting edge.
5. Finally, we will warrant them to cut from 40 to 50 acres of grain or grass without being once ground.
We are the sole Manufacturers of these Knives in the United States.

INTRODUCTION.
In presenting the initial number of the "Gazetteer and Directory of Herkimer County " to the public, the publisher desires to return his sincere thanks to all who have so kindly assisted in obtaining the valuable information which it contains, and with- out whose aid it would have been impossible to collect it in the brief space of time in which it is essential that all such works should be completed. Especially are our thanks due to the several editors of the Journal and Courier, Little Falls; Herkimer Democrat and Little Falls Gazette, Herkimer; The Standard Bearer, West Win- field; Herkimer County News, Mohawk; Herkimer County Citizen, Ilion; and X. A. Willard, for several years agricultural editor of the Utica Herald and the Rural New Yorker, for the uniform kindness which has been evinced in calling public attention to the author's efforts; and to the following persons, viz., Dr. William Mather, Fairfield; Alexis L. Johnson, East Schuyler ; Watts T. Loomis and J. D. Champion, School Commissioner, Lit- tle Falls ; Horace L. Greene, Asst. Assessor of Internal Revenue, Little Falls; and to many others in various sections of the County who have kindly volunteered their aid.
The following works were consulted in its preparation : " French's Gazetteer of the State of New York;" "Stone's Life of Brant; " "Lossing's Pictorial Field Book of the Revolution ; " "Census Reports of 1865; " and " Proceedings of Board of Super- visors for 1868."

INTRODUCTION.
That errors may have occurred in so great a number of names and dates as are here given, is probable, and that names have been omitted that should have been inserted is quite certain. We can only say that we have exercised more than ordinary diligence and care in this difficult and complicated feature of book-making. Of such as feel aggrieved in consequence of error or omission, we beg pardon, and ask the indulgence of the reader in marking such as were observed in the subsequent reading of the proofs, and which are noted in the Errata, following the Introduction.
It is also suggested that our patrons observe and become familiar with the explanations at the commencement of the Directory.
The Map of the County was engraved with great care by Messrs. "Weed, Parsons & Co.," of Albany, and, it is believed, will prove a valuable acquisition to the work.
The Advertisers represent some of the leading business men and firms of the County, and also many enterprising and reliable dealers in other parts of the State. We most cheerfully commend them all to the patronage of those under whose observation these pages may come.
With thanks to friends generally, we leave our work to secure the favor which earnest endeavor ever wins from a discriminating business public.

Frankfort Carriage Manufac- tory is advertised on page 140. The pro- prietors, Messrs. Tisdale & Abbott, have had many years experience in the busi- ness, and by employing none but good workmen and using the best materials they have built up an enviable reputation among the carriage manufacturers of the County. They receive the Coach Makers Magazine and eastern styles monthly, and parties who contemplate purchasing light carriages or sleighs will find it for their advantage to call on these gentlemen who make a speci- alty of this kind of work. Let all inter- ested call at Frankfort, N. Y.
Francis S. Wilcox, Attorney and Insurance agent, Mohawk, N. Y., adver- tises on page 123. Mr. Wilcox represents some of the best Fire and Life Insurance Companies in the world. The combined cash assets of the Life Companies exceed forty millions of dollars, while the cash as- sets of the Fire Companies exceed fifteen millions of dollars. The Life Companies are purely mutual, dividing all their profits annually among the policy holders. All policies are non-forfeiting.
James Silvernail, Custom Black- smith, Ilion, N. Y., advertises on page 146. He thoroughly understands his business and will spare no pains to render all work satisfactory to his customers. If the use of the best materials and a close attention to his business will win favor, we are con- fident he will receive the patronage he merits. He is ready and obliging and will serve his customers at all reasonable hours and make his charges as low as any shop in the town. Give him a call.
Dr. James Lewis, Dental Surgeon, Mohawk, N. Y., publishes a card on page 146. He has been established twenty years and is prepared to perform all work in the mechanical or surgical department in the best manner. Those who have lived till the "grinders are few," will do well to have some new ones inserted, and we know of no one who will do it better than Dr. Lewis.

PUBLISHER'S NOTICES.
National Savings Bank, 165 Gene- see Street, Utica, N. Y. Among the new institutions of Oneida County, none has grown more steadily into popular favor than the Banking Institution whose name heads this article. Its business has grown with a rapidity unparalleled in similar in- stitutions. It is only about two and a half years since it commenced business, and its deposits have reached the enormous sum of over One Million Dollars. It is managed by a Board of Directors composed of the best business men in the country. Its officers are men of experience, and have no superiors as careful, successful, financial managers. It is one of the ablest managed monied institutions in the State, and is doing great good. See advertisement in- side first cover.
Wheeler Case, patentee and manu- facturer of Boot Jacks, Poland, Herkimer Co., N. Y., advertises on page 20. The Boot Jacks made by Mr. Case are superior to any other in the country. The Folding Boot Jack, possessing all the advantages of the Double Action, can be folded up and put in a gentleman's satchel. The Double Action Boot Jack is so constructed as to hold firmly both the heel and toe of the boot, leaving the wearer nothing to do but to draw his foot out. After using one of these Jacks, no man would willingly do without it.
Falls Gazette, published at Herkimer, by C. C. Witherstine, is advertised on page 14. The Democrat, under different names, has been published for nearly thirty years. In May last, the Little Falls Gazette was united with it, making it one of the largest papers in the County. Its circulation is large and it is too well known and appre- ciated to need any recommendation from us. The Job Office is well stocked for all kinds of work.
Cronkhite Brothers, House, Sign and Ornamental Painters, Main Street, Little Falls, N. Y., are prepared to execute all kinds of Plain and Ornamental Painting and Paper Hanging in the best manner. They have had experience with some of the best mechanics in the country and are worthy of a liberal patronage. Those who favor them with their patronage may rely upon having their work well done, as they are thoroughly competent and reliable men and use none but the best materials. Their card appears on page 162. Give them a call.
Justus A. Cole, Little Falls, N. Y., advertises an improved Farm Gate, on page 232. This Gate appears to supply a demand that no other invention so well fills, and is destined to come into general use. It is cheap in construction, easily built and durable. It is known as States & Lutt's Gate.
Munson Bros., Water Lime, Calcined Plaster, &c .- The WATER LIME sold by them is the genuine Onondaga Cement, where the best Lime Quarries in the country are found. They also have the "ROSENDALE CEMENT," specially adapted for Water Works, Cisterns and the strongest masonry. It is necessary in purchasing these articles, to be particular in selecting the brands, as there are several kinds of an inferior quality. Having made arrange- ments with the best manufactories to re- ceive these articles fresh daily from their works, they are enabled to effect shipments direct from them, or from their own estab- lishment, at the lowest market prices. They are also daily receiving the choicest brands of Finishing Lime, viz: "BALD MOUN- TAIN," GLENS' FALLS and "ROCKLAND FINISHING." Masons, Bleachers, Sugar Re- finers and Chemists will do well to call and examine for themselves, as they are confi- dent of giving entire satisfaction. They are prepared to furnish CALCINED PLASTER Of extra quality for Stucco and Ornamental work; also brands for CASTING and for DENTISTS' use. MARBLE DUST for extra finish, and the BEACH SAND for ordinary use, need no commendation. See adver- tisement on page 176.
Post & Jones, manufacturers of Car- riages and Sleighs, Main Street, Ilion, N. Y., have had a large experience in their business and are prepared to execute all
Herkimer Democrat and Little | jobs in Wood or Iron, Painting or Trimming
in the most approved style. Any person in want of Farm Wagons, Carriages or Sleighs will find it to their advantage to call on Messrs. Post & Jones, as they select the best materials that can be obtained and employ none but the best of workmen. All work is done under their own personal supervision and no imperfect work is al- lowed to leave the shop. By honest in- dustry, fair dealing and attention to the wants of the community, Messrs. Post & Jones are determined to merit a good share of patronage. Give them your patronage ; you can find no better work in the market. Repairing of all kinds promptly attended to. See advertisement on page 188.
J. E. Freeman, Herkimer, N. Y., has recently started a machine shop where he has every facility for manufacturing any kind of machinery. He is a practical me- chanic and employs none but the most ex- perienced workmen, giving his personal supervision to all work intrusted to his care, thereby insuring the best of work in every department. Thrashing Machines, Horse Powers, Reapers and Mowers, and farm machines generally, will be promptly rapaired in the best manner. Those who favor Mr. Freeman with their patronage may rest assured that they will patronize a worthy mechanic, and have their work well done, and at reasonable rates. See card, on page 234.

PUBLISHER'S NOTICES.
Perrine's Patent Water Eleva- tor, advertised on page 194, was patented by P. Perrine, and for durability. utility and simplicity, is without a rival in the whole long line of Water Elevators. The bucket descends to the bottom of the well without an effort on the part of the opera- tor, thereby saving nearly one-half the labor. More water can be drawn with less time and less labor with this machine than with any other hand machine in the coun- try.
Perrine & Son are also Master Builders, and are prepared to do all kinds of carpen- ter and joiner work in the best manner. House, Sign and Ornamental Painting and Graining will be done promptly on applica- tion. They also keep a good assortment of Paints, Oils and Painters' Materials gen- erally, which they sell at wholesale or re- tail, and mix to suit customers. They are practical mechanics and give their personal supervision to work intrusted to their care. All persons interested are invited to call or send in their orders to Perrine & Son, Little Falls, N. Y.
G. W. Payne, manufacturer of Car- riages and Sleighs, Main Street, Newport, N. Y., advertises on page 180. Mr. Payne selects the best of materials and his car- riages will bear close inspection. Those who wish for good Carriages or Sleighs, or who have repairing to be done, will find it for their advantage to call on Mr. Payne. He also keeps spruce Flooring and Shingles which he will sell at reasonable rates.
