Those caught are mostly small and many of

the larger fish arc caring for their young and

THE FOUIfUI IN 11LOOM.
The day passed very quietly here. Many
family plc-n ics went out to the woods and
f pent tbe day. In the afternoon a fine game of
base-ball was played on the fair grounds be
tween Nanticoke aud Bloom nines. The score
will bo found .'elsewhere. In lhe evening a
large crowd of people went out to ll.e end of
Rock street to see a display of fire-works, for
which they were indebted to Messrs, Lowen"
berg and Drinker, The Hand festival afiorded
a resort for many. There was butlillle drunk
enness seen on the street during the day.
That ably edited nnd enterprising Demo
cratic paper, the Elmira Free JVr, truthfully
says : "It is amusing to see some of those
felbws who kept safely at home during the
war, tiy lo look solemnly oracular, and talk
about "our" having to fight the South over
again, and put the rebellion down, as "we"
supposed it was put down before "How we
apples swim," If there was to be another
war lo day, they would only stay at borne and
howl as they did before, They know, perfectly
well, that there is no more prospect of war
than thero is of the drying up of the Pacific
Ocean."
Now is n good time for the Town authorities
to pass an ordinance requiring ail dogs to be
muzzled for the next two months- Frequent
cases of hydrophobia are reported in the
papers, and from tbe number of dogs in the
town our chaiicis are us good as anybody else's.
Something ought to bo done to protect the
public. Not one third the dogs in town are
taxed, and alt the dog in town are worth
about as much as the tux that i paid on the
onu thiid, If the Inw is notenforced inregurd
to taxation, 'let another method to keep down
the number be tried, and that is, lo pass an
ordinance requiring every dog found on tho
street without a muzzle , before the lir.t of
September to bo killed. Wo have no Idea that
anything ol this kind will be done until some
one falls it victim to n mad dog.

On last Friday afternoon a very Interesting
game of base ball was played ou tho Fair
grounds. The contestants being the Nanticoke
nine and o picked nlno from town. From the
score as given below by Innings it can bo seen
Ihnt the gome was unusually well played. At
tho end of the sixth Inning tho scoro was even,
1-4. In tho eighth Inning tho Nanticoke
nine, through an error of nno of our boys, were
allowed to make the winning run. Ono feature
ot tho gnmo was lhe very fine catching of
-iionagnan oi lhe iitoom nine. The game
throughout was noticeable for the fine fielding
of both nines though the homo nine excelled
in that, as the usiting nine did at tho bat.

At 8 P. M. the alumni reunion and annual
levee was enjoyed in the chapel. Tbe exchange
of friendly greetings, and the usual social priv

participated in by the students and many of
the friends of.the Seminary until a late hour;
and so closed a prosperous year and a delight
ful Commencement season.
Despite the "hard times," the general pros
perity of Wyoming Seminary is very well
marked. This school is eminently worthy of
confidence and most generous support of the
patronizing Conferences. In intellectual op-
iwrtunities and moral tone it ranks among the
best. Multiply its patrons ; pray for it j endow
it with your wealth give It a large place in
your thoughts and effeclions-

The following extract from tbe Doylutown
Democrat, will bo read with interest by many
of nur readers :
Our next day's tramp, Sunday, was a long
one, thirty miles to Bloomsburg, in Columbia
county. We left Sullivan county just lief oro
we renched Hagar's, and now passed through
tho corner of Luzerne. We were on tbe march
at six, und in about three miles struck Cole's
creek, which we followed down to Fishing creek
nnd down this creek and its alley all day long
This is one of tho most beiutiful and lerliRj
valleys in lhe interior of the State, growing
wider as we go south, the farms improving in
appearance, and the buildings more lid p. We
passed through Benton, Stillwater, Elysburg,
Orur.geville, and Ligbt.Strcet. From various
points as we crossed the hills we caught
delightful views of the widening valley. Just
below Benton, a sweet little girl came to the
fence and said to us, "If you find a garter down
tbo road please leave it at one of tho neighbors,
for I lost mino to-day, coming from Sunday
school at Stillwater," Upon being questioned
about her lost treasure, the little lady said that
it "was red, and white, and speckled." We
looked diligently for the garter, but could not
find it, much to our regret. To save the little
maiden from a broken heart, your correspond
ent did the most gallant thing left for him,
purchased a new pair, and Bent them to her by
tbo baud of a friend. If this does not embajm
us in the heart of one of tbe future mothers nf
America, we would like scmcbody to tell us
whatwili Just below this maiden's home we
stopped on Fisbingcreek to lunch and rest. A
lady near by gave us a pitcher of milk, but in
doing this sho believed she was giving charity
to a couple of bona fide tramps, and I urn
satisfied she was relieved when we moved on,
It commenced to rain now, but we put- or. our
gossamer gum coats, and walked two hours
through a severo storm, At 3 30 wo were
wllbln six and a half miles of llloomsburg,
hut the storm had blown over, and tho
afternoon was now clear and pleasant. A mile
from Orangevillo we stopped at a farm houso
to lunch on pie and milk and found our host
to be n brother of the late Gen. Wellineion II.
Hut, who commanded one of the regiments of
ldfcitflif awns'1
.. j t
Democratic candidate for Auditor Gf-nernl nf
Pcnnn. Our reception and entertainment were
cordial and our hospitable host refused in
reifhe pay. 'I his wns the rule nlong tbewholu
route. We now hunlid on lo our lnco of
destination, climbing several sleep hills; but
the landscape about lis was always charming.
At 7 o'clock, as wo nearedt Uloomburg, we
stopped U pay odr reppects' to f tod. Ohal'lcs
R. Buckalew, who lived on tbo roadside. Wu
found the philosopher-statesman si' ting on bis
porch reading a book, but it wus laid liable in
n moment, and his welcome was most cordial
Your conespondent had hardly seated himself
upon the porch, when a large ebcphctd dog
seized him by the coat collar, but no harm was
done. Unsophisticated persons might think
the conduct of tint canine was not ns friendly
as it might have been, but.lhen tho welcome of
tbo master ih'.ro than counterbalanced the
Ill-will of n store Of (furit- If h6 'bad seized
upon Mr. Micbcncr, the organs would have
instantly sen some political significance In It.
Our journey to-day was down through what
is facetiously called the 1 Confederacy" of
Fishing creek, where the administration tried
hard to get up n small rebellion during the
wnr. and where n thou-and men of war stormed
a pig ity and captured a half dozen old men,
and n siiperanuated jackass. Mr, Buckalew
accompanied us Into Hbomsburg, and took us
to tbo Exchange hotel, tho best in thd place,
whero respectable tramps nre well lodged, and
vouched for us- This is n beautiful town, .the
county.sent Of Columbia, with broad streets,'
good buildings, nnd n population of nearly live
thousand. lis educational facilities nre
increased by the presence of a Normal school,
situated on high ground al the head of the
main street, overlooking the town. Heret we
rested Sunday night. Amohg the gentlemen
wo ict wns Captain C. B. Brockwav. editor.
bc Idler, lawyer, who did gallant servico in the
latu vnr, nn old acquaintance; of vour corres
pondent, llloomsburg Is, to all intents nnd
purposes-Mr.) I nckidew's 'bailiwick, for ihv'tb
hi cumulative sutcm of oting prevails In all
its purity, and from what was told ns oflts
workings, it does appear lo bo a good thing to
have about good lor tax-payers, but bad for
politicians. The politbal organization is that
of the town of New England' instead of tho
borough, the boundaries including the wholo
township. It could do no harm to try the
system elsewhere. Fishing creek empties into
the Susquehanna, which llows about a mile
from the town. Here the valley opens wide,
is rich, and highly cultivated.
We turned our backs on tho pleasant town
of llloomsburg on Monday morning, the IGth,
and walking down the broad main street-were
soon beyond the houses on the way to Sliamo
kin, distant about twenty-five miles. We
followed Fisbingcreek until we came to the
Susquehanna, along a pleasant, shady road ;
and then by the river to the bridge which lends
Id Catawissa, which it cost ns four cents to
cross, Thisis:h rather 'sleepy-looking town;
but. we did not tarty long enough , in it to
partake of its drowsiness, for we hastened
thr6ugh its shady streets and plunged among
the hills which surround it. o bad climbed
these hills, nnd tramped through the vnlleys
ten miles or more, when weenmoto n stand-still
because tbe road here forks, and, without niap
or guido we knew' not whether to" go to the
right pr to the left It wasn't nafe to rub any
risks, for we had no relish for getting olf the
road and thei tramping buck ngain So the
column halted. Your correspondent sat upon
n stone to make some, holes in his diary, while
Alicliener.lay lull length upon the greensward
and hummed a few staves of Pinafore, varying
his musical performance by paying attention to
ii small toe that was a little tut worse bf weari
Your two trampists felt ns if theyr didu't care
whether school kept or not. We waited here
until a man with a wagon came' along,- who
directed us aright, when we again started on
nnr winillmr wiiv. Tins rnuntrv is lulli- nnd
'rough,' but not mountainous,- although short
mountain ranges-were constantly in sight;' the
land is well cultivated ana the roads good.
Striking Roaring creek we followed down it.
Tbe most considerable villapo we nnsscd
through to day was Elysburg, n little over half
it snriK'little valley, mud from whoso surround-r
ing bills one gets a View that doe's the eves good
to loos at. Just before coining to this plne
we put ourselves a little .on our mttle and
had no trouble' in Teeling4. off a mile in 15
minutes, not fast traveling but respectable
going under the circumstances. Beyond
Elysburg wo stopped at n farm house nnd
wanted to buy milk for a lunch, but the good
nousewilo relusul to receive pay lor as mticiii
as we wished to drink. We cbatled with her
about tbe crops and tho prices. nnd she declared
with emphasis that 12 cents per pound I is
enough lor butter these limes.

A PATENT RtOlIT SWINDLER .GETS HIS
UESEItTS,
A smooth spoken man, having the appear
ance of a farmer, drove up to the residence of
John Witmoyer, in an upper part of Berks
county, several days ago, and wanted Witmoyer
to buy a township right for tbe sale of a patent
corn shelter, Witmoyer happened to have
been a juror In a case in which a farmer had
beeu swindled by a device similar to this one,
so be concluded to draw the man on. He told
tbe agent to prepare the agreement, which be'
ing done, was handed to tbe farmer for his
signature. Witmoyer, however, astonished lhe
agent by saying be would just read il, when it
was discovered that the agreement was a prom,
is.ory note for $300, So John called in his
two big sons, and together they carried tbe
patent right man to the horse trough in the
barnyard, where they baptized him. Then they
gave him a number of kicks apiece, put the
dogs on him, one of them tore off a large patch
olbis pantaloons, and so cheered him on his
way. The agent has quit business in that part
of the county. Jxtriot.
STOl'I'l.NO THE PAPER,
An exchange has the following allegory,
which has always an application ;
"A certain man hit his toe against a p'.-bble,
and f-ll headlong lolhegrouud. lie was vexed
and under the inlbierce of anger and silf
sufficiency be kicked mother earth right saucily
With imperturbable gravity he looked to see
the earth dissolve and come to naught. But the
earth remained, aud onlv his uir font in.
jureil In tbe encounter'"
The subscriber who takes odince at a
newspaper paragraph and stops his paper is
very like this man. He waits to hear the cratli.
He fin la sweel solace in the bitter responsibili,
ties of the rival papers. He expects very soon
lohearof the titter annihilation of the estab
lishment he has ceased to patronize. He loses
sight of the probable fact that two new uh-
scrlbers have taken his place, and is astonished
ultimately to learn that the newspaper la just
exactly as llirilty and popular as ever. W hen
man goes iu a ury gooiia nouie, or a grocery,
or any other establishment to purehase, ho does
so became he expects to get bargains.- When
be goes to a newspiper office to subscribe, bo is
BiipKMttI lo do exactly the same thing, and if
he is gelling a live paper for a little money.
when he stops Ithe is the' loser noboe'y else.

Too Many SlitlftflTihe Public Hth'sols.
"Our schools are buulened with too many
studies, ologles, Isms, and crolcliets of ec
centric examiners, who exact of others what
they could never do themselves," lately said
an experienced teacher .In one of the public
schtiols of the cjty, j and tliero was ample
justification forlho remark-. v
All parents are aware' that their children
nowadays arc atUfled with a variety nnd a
quantity of information which it Is Impossi
ble for them to digest, and that in the njr
tempt to acquircit their health fillers, and
their overrcclgfied faculties areMibpaffeii un
der tlpj stralu. Instead of being taught a
few things well, they get n smattcrlug of' all
sorts of knowledge, passing fioni one study
to another without having thoroughly mas-'
tered any. A schoolboy's arms are hardly
long enough to Stretch around tho text books
with which tho city provides him, And to
which he must address his dazed InteRcct.
The people whojean-ofTord to aerul. their
children to private schools must took' out for,
themselves to see that the instruction he
boys and girls get is euch.as, to develop and
strengthen their intellects, uot to clbg aud
rxhnust them ; but It Is the business of the
publitu make sure that tho (raining In the
frecj schools, where a vatfmnjority of tho
children of'tbe city receive their tultioD, is
so regulated as to produce only the best re
sults,, and is simple, thorough, aud.practl
cal.i ,
Of late years all sorts of fantastic theories,
and notions havo crept into the 'profession
of teaching, and In consequence tbere..has
been bred a lot of pedagogues, who are uoi
satisfied with training young people in the
ordinary elementary branches of reading.
wriing, nnd arithmetic. The resulf islbat
in our public sclii&!s'''thef6tce.afJtStruet-
ors is swelled by a great crowd of fancy
teachers who divert the attention of the pu
pils from substantial studies, and load thejr
minds, with a mass of facta and theories they
arelunabte to digest. For instance, we find
in thecourse.oUnstr'usiien.lald .down. by',
the. Board of Education for the grammar
schools) that "the meaning and use, of at,
least twenty Latin-roots" are required; valu
aoie miowieuge, uouoness,, lor ooys 10 ex-j

historic ornament, pottery' forms, and, geo
metrical figures" consumes a considerable
port of the time, of the pupils, and among
the obligatory studies aro astronomy, tbe
structure of the human body, natural phil
osophy, music, aud the analysts of sen
tences.
These are things about which It is, highly
desirablo that men of liberal education
should know, but nobody can get more than
a mere surface view of them except
by( long and special study. They form no
such essential part of an education for tbe
ordinary purposes of life as those elementary
branches to which tbo schoolmaster of old
gave his attention, and iu which the boys
and girls at tho public schools can barely
spare the time to gain any proficiency. In
stead of extending the range' of the valua
ble Information of tne i scholars, tbe hours
spent upon these fancy Btudies withdraw
ihem from proper diligence in the pursuit
of those homely but essential parts of a
practical education, reading, writing, and
arithmetic.
A boy or girl who has only a few years to
spend in school, and who must, leave it to
earn a living, has no time to waste in learn
ing things not necessary, and hardly time lo
