It was the sad pleasure of our cor respondent the other day to visit the old Pen n's creek grayeyaid where the old church used to stand, near Mr. David J. Musser's, in Gregg town ship. The church has been taken away years ap-(\ the fence has yielded to time's destroying hand aud the grave yard is a common. In strolling around I fouod some marble an I a number of brown stone head and foot stones. A mong them I also found the grave of the "Rev. Jame3 Martin, pastor of the first Presbyterian congregation in Peon's valley." The grave and tomb stone, like all the surroundings, are in a very dilapidated condition, and it made me feel sad to *see thr.t the last resting place of this early pioneer of the cross, and founder of Presbyterian ism in the historic old galley should be so neglected. I concluded to give my Pre6byterian frien Is a gentle reminder on the matter. Let the sacred spot be enclosed by a substantial iron fence," instead of being expose 1 to the devas tations of animals and beasts as it now is. TRAVELER.

Letter from lowa. Ponora, Guthrie Co., lowa., July 11th, 1881. Mr. Eilitor:— Our crops of hist sum mer were pretty pood, notwithstanding the hot, dry and stormy weather. Winter began in the first week of November ISSO, and from thence to the 'oth of April 1881, wo had oidy two elear days, on which the thermom eter showed a few degrees above zero, while the rest of tho tune it kept at a bout 33k decrees below Hie freezing point-. Ttye first week of Decern lipr it commenced to qnow and continued to do so at short intervals until April 12, when we find the largest show of all, about, one foot deep. On the lbth and 17th of the same month a big freshet came on, and in consequence swollen rivers, which Hooded, the low lands, took away numerous bridges and dams and tore up tho roads. Thousands of acies of corn remained unhusked, the sowing time had come and gone, and the work had to be left undone. In vain we hoped for diy weather., The spring rains were as powerful and un interrupted as thy winter snows had been. At last tho farmers were com pelled to sow although the tic-Ids were in a very wet condition, and the re sult will be failing crops in most cases Hundreds of acres of land, especially, low land, were not sowed at all, while sowed land is flooded so as to render cultivation impossible. Much of our corn was only planted in the last week of June. The 12th of July will always be remembered by us as a day of sor row and trouble. Tho morning of the day was beautiful, but at about 10 o'clock clouds gathered in on the west ern horizon, the wind coming from the north. A little before noon it com menced to rain and hail, the wind changing to a southwestern direction. It grew dark and the fiercest hailstorm I ever witnessed pop red down on old mother earth. The ground in a short time was covered with about two inches of hail, but further south, where the storm raged with greater fury, the ground was covered from four to six inches deep, from as largo as hen's eggs. Grain, trees arid roofs were lit erally crushed under the weight of the' hail. The people are discouraged and wear far! faces. The damage done in one vicinity is not so extensive, but in some of the surrounding 'parts of the country everything wis destroyed. We had a amount of rain this year, lasting whole weeks and sometimes coming down like waterspouts. Lust week it stopped and got feat fully hot, tho temperature rising to 118° in the shade, while on the coolest days it kept at {MP. From Saturday afternoon again up to the present time we had continuous lightning, thunder and rain, winch swelled our principal river about G feet, took away almost all bridges wd stopped communication with neighboring parts of the country. Tf it keeps on this way, I can not see, how we are to harvest. Wheat stands thin and short, but is filled pretty well. Cora is from a few inches to 4 feet high. The main trouble is that on ac count of this wet spell, there was no opportunity so far to cultivate the corn and consequently the fields are eovered with weeds. I coukj fill many pages more with the description pf the hoi rible devasta tion out here, but will close with the heartfelt wish, that the inhabitants of Pennsylvania may be spared such af flictions. Yours truly, , HERMAN WITTIIAUKR. The Game Laws.
