Afler many years' of ndverslty the North

Thursday of last week, by nn excursion
from Wllkcsbarro toSnnhury nnd return,
which wns participated In by about COO
people living nlong tho route. Tho ex

Hev. D. J. Waller, Charles Parrlsli nnd

Wllkcsbarro nt8 o'clock In tho morning
Willi nbout 2.i0,,gentlemen of that city, nnd
ran to Sunbury, arriving nt nbout 1 1
o'clock. Hero the party was largely aug
mented. Shortly after 11 o'clock the
return trip wns begun, nnd nt Danville,
Cntawlssa, Bluoinshurg, Berwick, nud
other points delegations wero taken up,
nnd the six coaches ot which the train wns
composed, were filled to oversowing. The
new road followslhe river on thu left linnd
side, and tlio seijncry from the cars cannot
bo surpassed nnywhere. H was a subject
of common remark thnt the track wns as
smooth ns any old road, which speaks well
for tho contractors, the Messrs. Collins.
Tho day wns all thnt could bo desired, and
tho trip wns mado to Wilkcsbarrc in nood
time, when tiio excursionists repaired to
tho Wyoming Valley Mouse and partook
ot an elegant collation. After tho viand,

ItEsoLVED, That we thank Mr. Alfred Walters,

When tho reading was finished n motion
for tho adoption of tho resolutions wns put,
which was carried unanimously nnd em
phatically. Loud calls for Waller follow,
cd, nud that gentleman responded very
happily by saying that when he left that
place fifty-two years ago and floated down
the river on n shingle, he never expected
to be carried back on n steel rail. Hemarks
were also made by Col. Taggurt of North,
umberland, Hev. I. II. Torrence of Htver
side, and Attorney-General Palmer, all of
which were received with loud applause.
At about four o'clock the train left
Wilkcsbarrc, reaching Bloomsburg at
about six o'clock. On the ferry boat a
vote of thanks wns extended by those,
present from Bloomsburg to Mr. Wilier,
and nil who had taken an active interest
in thu new road, for tho great advantages
opened for our town.
For nearly fifteen years Mr. Waller has
labored for this road. Mu met with ob
stacles and discouragement on almost
every hand, but hh indomitable energy
and pluck carried him through, nnd his
enjoyment on the occasion of opening the
road showed clearly that he was very
happy, and justly so, at the completion of
his years of labor. Much credit must also
be accorded Mr. William Neal for the
success of tho undertaking. When all
others lost hope, he constantly aided Mr.
Waller with ids advice and means, and
never doubted but that tho road would bo
built. Such hacking gave the president
renewed hope and energy, and carried
him through successfully. Tlio road is
now operated by the Pennsylvania com
pany. The following persons constituted tho
Bloomsburg delegation so far as we were
able to asc;rtain them :
Mr. and Mrs. I). J. Waller, Sr., Mr. nnd

Tho authors of "One Hundred Wives"
made u thorough study of Mormon history
nnd n sweeping search of Mormon lltcr.t-
luro before writing their play, und It may
bu confidentially asserted that tlio terrors
and Infamies of Mormon life have been in
nowiso exaggerated. It was Joseph Smith,
tlio original "prophet" of the Mormon
religion, who first taught married women
who came into the church that nil former
marriages were null and void, nud that
It was tlielr duty to take new husbands
from tlio Mormon fold, Women nro also
Instructed that their hope of u queen's
dowry In the Celestial Kingdom, depends
upon their consenting that their husbands
shall take other wives. This delusion is
impressed upon the Mormon women to
such a degree that many wlfes aru strong
advocates of polygamy, nud even urge
plural marriages upon unwilling husbands,
Tlio doctrine of thu "blood atonement" is
historical, and llrlgliam Young publicly
declared lu ono of his sermons that "blood
should bo spilled us a menus of salvation,"
which became sufilclent authority for mur.
dering enemies of the church und pursuing
those who disputed its authority. Those
who believe that thu horrors of Mormonism

that there wero more polygamous mar.

HOW SltAI.I. tltRY" n I'ASSRt) TO THE Phortr
of TIIR vnlrSO,
That tin) long evenings ot winter drag
heavily upon the yoting,',uyi'ry ono who hns
any tecolicctton of his boyhood wilt ndmlt.
Tho young man will find means Of1 Amuse
ment either at homo or abroad. Thu socla)
nature ot tlio young cannot lie Ignored, but
should bo taken ndvatitage of to Incttlcnto
good practices, It tho development of bad
ones would be avoided. There nre thousands
of young men who can just as well bo
trnlned up Into the paths of virtue, honor
nnd Industry, as to bo allowed to be caught
In the meshes of tlio vile nnd dissolute. It
Is not that young men want to cuter upon
a questionable lifut but there is nn execs.
Mvo restlessness In their mako up, which
cannot be conltollcd by compelling them
to sit nt home In the evening sucking their
thumbs, or leading long disquisitions on
religious subjects, or listening to tedious
lectures on moral questions. It mothers
would rear their sons, says Appleton'a
Journal, so thnt their homes arc associated
with tho repression of natural instincts, you
will bo sure to throw them In tio society
thnt in any measure can supply the need
of their hearts. They will not go to tlio
publlo houses, nt first, for love of liquor
very few people like tlio tnste of liquor ;
they go for tho nnimnted nud hilarious
companionship they find there, which they
discover docs so much to repress tlio dis
turbing restlessness In their breasts. See
to it, then, thnt thrlr homes compete In
attractiveness witli public plnccs. Open
your blinds by day nt-d light bright fires
nt night. Illiimlnato your rooms j hang
pictures upon tlio wall. Put books nnd
newspapcr.4 upon your table. Havo music
and entertnlnlng gnincs. Banish demons
of dullness nud apathy that have so loilg
ruled In your household, and bring In
mirth nnd good cheer. Invent occupations
for your sons. Stimulate their ambitions
in worthy directions. While you make
home their delight, fill them with higher
purposes than mere pleasure. Whether
they shall pa happy boyhood, and enter
upon manhood with refined tastes and
noble nmbltlons, depends uu you. Do not
blame others If your sons miscarry. Be
lieve it possible that with exertion nnd
right means, u mother mny have mriro con
(rol over the destiny of her boys than nny
other infiuencc whatever.
