On tho death of George W. Hess, who
died August 20, 1885, aged nearly 10 years.

Ou the morning of the 29th of August,
tho appearance of the beautiful grove,
fronting the residence of Mr. Sylvester Al
bcrtson, indicated that a more than usual
event was expected. A platform, numer
ous seats, and a long table had been erect
ed and above it all hung a line banner.
upon it tho words, ''Welcome Home,"
wero tastciully formed of everureens.
Dining the entire forenoon vehicles halted
to unload smiling occupants until about
two hundred persons were on the ground,
engaged in the pleasaut task of polishing
the chains of friendship and consanguinity.
The 29th of last March the sixtieth year
was marked on tho dial of tho ages since
John Albcrtson brought his family to this
spot In Greenwood township, to make a
lomo amid the forests that thcu waved
above the now fertile fields. I need not
relate the trials and triumphs of those
early days, they arc past, and tho hands ot
tho weary tollers are at rest. A desire to
assemble once more at tho homo of their
childhood, brought tho surving children
four brothers and ono sister together with
many grandchildren and great-grandchildren,
some from a distance, came to par
tlclpate iu this first family reunion, llev.
Wm. K. Mathers, of Elyshurg, Pa., deliv

Ono hundred nud eighty-seven persons
helped to dispose of tho bounteous repast,
which loaded tho tables. In tho afternoon
ltev. J. W. Messinger delivered tho second
address to an appreciative audience. A
photographer was on tho ground and se
cured a picturo of tho group. Tho day
was spent pleasantly and profitably by all

reunion of tho 'hoys iu blue' at Gettysburg
desiro your correspondent to write up tho
occasion. It would havo come sooner but
for our Illness.
Wo plunged through the rain of Aug.
17th nnd arrlycd In tho cvoning at Gettys
burg, Saturday was rainy. Sunday was
brilliant, nnd tho weather continued pleas
ant afterward. On Sabbath wo had a fino
sermon from Pittsburg. Wo glvo tho names
of Berwick boys who attended tho enmp.
Col. A. D. Sccly, Harry Glen and son, J.
F. Opdyko nnd son, Abner Welsh nnd son,
Brubakcr, E. li. Adams, Broslnr, E. J,
Bowman, Lcnhart, and Frank Brockway,
of Beach Haven. 7000 hoys filled tho camp
Tho 'Lambs,' 'Hazors,' 'Sunllowors,' nnd
Kids' of Philadelphia took tho cake. They
dressed In masqucrado evenings.and would
march down town, headed by their band,
They emptied 15 kegs of beer every night,
Tho camp was right sldo of tlio cemetery
which Is a very ample nnd beautiful one,
well covered with the shade of beautiful
trees, and ornamented with shrubbery with
solid walks meandering through tho
crounds, environed with osago orange,
60C0 of our boys bunk beneath tho sod
there. Gettysburg, an antiquated town,
contains about 2500 inhabitants. In tho
center Is a larco square, whero beautiful
arches of ovcrgrccn, adorned with mottoei
wero reared by tho ladles of Gettysburg,
Wo saw conspicuously the words, "Wei.
come, welcome."
Tho 'Unknown' in tho cemetery hYQ lit
tlo square blocks of marblo above them.
They wero burled In tho shapo of an arc,
Tho arrangement Is very neat. In front of
tho camp Is "Gulp's Hill," way beyond tho
cemetery on opposlto sldo of tho camp Is
"Big and Llttlo Bound Tops," tho "Devll'i
Glen," nnd tho "Stono hedge," where tho
3rd days batllo was fought with despcra
lion. All through tho streets of Gettysburg
they fought. Wu saw Mead's Hd. Qr's.,
framo house, and Lee's Hd. Qr's., a brick
Wc saw tho houso whero tho woman was
shot kneading bread. Somo relics wero
found but they wero scarce. Tho "old 84th
commanded by Gen'l. B. M. Bowman had
their reunion on Tuesday ot tho encamp
ment nt tho court house, a fow of tho 3rd
Pa. Heavy Artillery to which your corres
pondent belonged was there. Gen. Hey
nold's mounmcnt stands conspicuous upon
tho grounds. Ho ventured out rashly from
the lines the 2nd day, and was shot by tho
enemy In ambush, The encampment would
havo been larger had It not been
for Grant's funeral, Andrew Fowler,
Lcman Fowler, Crcssman nnd others
nttcndcil tho funeral. Prof. Hani
son, tho eminent elocutionist visited here
after tho funeral, and gave glowing ac
counts of It. It must havo been greater
than tho triumphal marches of Oresar, Scl
plo, or Marlus.
Thcro was plenty of martial music upon
tho grounds. Dress pnrndo every evening,
Tho banners looked bright and beautiful.
It must havo been bright nnd beautiful on
tho last day of tho Gettysburg fight. At
Fort Bumpier It went down In darkness,
when her mighty walls blazing with firo
went down hissing into tho sen. It has a
history to bo suro born nt Serntoga, pass
ing In triumph through the war of ttio Ho-
volution, through tho war of 1712, waving
In triumph over tho halls of Montczumas
and now surging up and down through tho
fog of batllo for four long battle-burdened
years, llko tho billows of throbbing seas,
till It hung in beauty over dlsmantclcd, fal
len, starving Klchmond. Wo saw It hung
over that placo the second morning of Its
capture. It lookid as If It had been dipped
In tho fountains of tho morning nnd tho
hand of God had placed It there.
Tho storms of battle were but tho breath
of God that havo rendered our flag more
bright and beautiful. Long may it wave
for centuries to come. At Gettysburg,
Fredericksburg, Antictom nud scores of
other battle fields our heroes sleep. Let
them rest In peace.
Tho G. A. H. Is a mighty army In this
country. And beforo our flag would again
go down In blood and disgrace there would
be enough bayonets gathered around It to
bear up tho sinking heavens.

Ou Tliu North Mountain
The North Mountain House is on a quite
level plateau about 2320 feet abovo tldo
water ; being just 1800 feet above Second
street, Bloomsburg, opposite tho Court
House. The body of water which Is ono
great attraction is about ono mllo long and
averaging, I supposo a llttlo less than one
fourth of a mllewido. Tho depth Is not
great at any place, and tho bottom, where
evcr It can bo seen, clear and smooth.
Besides rowing and fishing upon tho lnko
there nro many paths and old wagon roads,
into, along and through tho woods j lead
ing to points of interest, ns to "Tho Cold
Spring," "Tho Outlook," "Kitchen Creek
Falls," Mehoopany Springs," "Tho Bears
Den," &c, &c.
Speaking of tho Bear's Den reminds mo
that a few days ago somo of tho llttlo girls
reported bears tracks at tho spring, on tho
route to "Cliff Hun Falls," and although
no gicat attention was paid to tho matter,
was thought well enough for somo older
persons to examine thcru. un tuo way
they deflected towards tho Bear Don, and
sure enough, In tho vicinity, was a more
than half grown cub. So llttlo expecta
tion of seeing a bear was entertained that
tho arms and ammunition were not equal
to tho occasion, and nil hands hurried to
the house for rillcs.
And then commenced a bear hunt iu
good earnest. Mr. Frank Illckctts led tho
way, armed with a "Winchester," and ac
companied by a couplo of other experienc
ed woodsmep, also with rifles; and "Tray,
Blanche nnd Sweetheart, llttlo dogs, and
howled and bayed In concert. A largo
party gathered at "tho outlook," the den
being off to the left and the chase crossing
Cliff run and off westward. Wo heard the
dogs barking and yelping, but no firing,
and at the end of two hours the expedition
returned, but the bears dld'nt.
However, Mr. Frank llieketts reported
tho tracks of two bears, and sight of places
where they had been wallowing ; but the
dogs refused to run them nnd thohuut was
abandoned. So, llko the King of Spain
with his ten thousand men, wo inarched
down to the "outlook" and then marched
back again. But I nevertheless, expect to
ring honvi with me, the car of one of
them bar's."

Nothing adds more to the security of life,
of happiness and health than a safe rcll
ablo family medicine. Simmons Liver
Regulator has won for Itself tho appella
tion of tho "favorite homo remedy." It h
adapted to a largo proportion of tho emer
gencies which occur In domestic life. If
tho child has tho colic, It Is a sure, safe and
pleasant remedy. If tho father is exhaust-
cd, overworked, debilitated, It will rcstoro
his', falling strength. If tho wlfo suffers
from dyspepsia, low spirits, headache, it
will glvo relief. If any member of tho
family has eaten anything hard of diges
tion, a small doso of tho Regulator will
soon establish n good digestion. It gives
refreshing sleep whero narcotics havo fall
cd. It is the best proventtvo mcdlclnc,and
safe to begin with, no matter what tho at.
tackj and in almost every case will afford
relief and effect a speedy cure without the
aid of other medicine. No error to bo
feared In administering; no Injury from
cxposaro after taking; no chango of diet
required; no chango of habits; no neglect
of duties or loss of time. Simmons Liver

Tho Thlrty-FIrst Annual Exhibition of
this society opens on tho permanent
grounds of tho association, at Broad street I
and Lehigh avenue, Philadelphia, on tho
23d of September.
To thoso who wero In nttendanco last I
year, wo woutd say that this progressive
society has materially added to tho comfort
of both visitors and exhibitors, by tho con
struction of broad avenues and walks cov
ered with fino broken stone, which will
prevent tho troublo from dust they have
nlso erected now buildings nnd extended
others, so that tho additional space will
cover over 45,000 square feet.
Tho track has been enlarged and Im
proved, and a grand covered Bland erected
to scat 2,500 spectators. Tho various
Hunt Clubs In tho vicinity ot Philadelphia
will compcto for the valuable trophies and
prizes of thu society, furnishing their best
horses and most skillful riders, and the
high leaping over hurdles, which was such
a novel and attractive feature of tho last
fair, will bo equaled and probably excelled;
In addition, thcro will be liurdlo nnd flat
racing, trotting, blcyclo trials by members
of all the blcyclo clubs. Exhibition of
colllo (shepherd) dogs driving andmancuv
crlng flocks of sheep, etc. Every effort
will bo mado to maintain the Interest In
Hits, tho amusement deportment of the
fair.
The Main Building under the supervis
ion of Society of Artp, will show tho claims
and capabilities ot Philadelphia as a man
ufacturing city, lior various industries will
bo shown at work, and tho product finish
ed beforo the spectator. Tho poultry, un
der the management of the Pennsylvania
Stato Poultry Society, will exceed in num.
bcr and quality that of last year. The Bench
show of dogs is under the control of the
Philadelphia Kennel Club, which Is sufilc-
lent guarantee that nothing will bo left un
dono to mako it as full in numbers and
complcto in detail as was tho last.
Tho strictly agricultural departments,
including horses, cattle, sheep, swloc, pro
ducts of tho soil, Implements and ma
chinery, it is needless to say, will bo of
character and extent in keeping with tho
resources ot Pennsylvania and the stand
ing of tho Pennsylvania Stato Agricultural
Society,
