Reunion!! Tuesday, the first of October,
instant, was a gala day at Summitville. It
had teen announced that a social meeting of
lormer otucers and employees on the
f 11, I . ln I 3 1 1 1 , . ,.,.
Mansion House, and preparations had been
made to accommodate a largo number of
guests. But the assemblage, in point of
numbers, exceeded the most sanguine ex
pectations. From every point of the com
pass the participants flowed in, and Sum
mitville, before the dinner hour, was alive
with the assembled multitude.
The happiest feeling pervaded the assem
blage. The old and the young the brave
and the fair all mingled congratulations,
and renewed long severed friendships. Ma
ny wno had been co-laborers on the road.
but who had not met for many years, had
the pleasure of a hearty shake of the hand,
while they mutually recounted old incidents
of tha road.
When the dinner hour arrived, the cuests
eat down to a table, furnished in Mr. Eif
fel's best style, groaning with all the delica
cies of the season the ladies, of whom there
were a large number present, the wives and
daughters of the employees, occupying the
first table.
Dinner over, the younger portion of the
party repaired to tho ball room and contin
ued to trip It on the "light fantastic toe,"
while the more aged and sedate amused
themselves in friendly discourse and recount
ing anecdotes of the early history of the
road some few, indeed) renewing their old
acquaintanship over a convivial glass, until
night closed in.
But darkness had no terrors for the lively
congregation assembled at the "Mansion
uouse." x ue music continued, mere was
no flagging in the "mazy dance," no lull in
the enjoyment of the occasion
About ten oclock matters took a more
lormai snapc, wnen it. Li. donnston was
called upon for a speech. Before commenc
ing hi3 remarks Mr. J. read the followin;
letter from Gov. Geary :
Executive Chamber. )
ilAlmisBURG, Fa., Sept 30, 18G7.
W. K. Tipes, James Smith, A. M'Coy,
and others, Committee, Summit, Cambria Co,
Gentlemen : It would afford me great pleas
uro to be with you to-morrow evening, to
take bv the hand so many of the old em
ployees dn the Portago Railroad, but the re
cent death of a near relative demands that I
should decline
Please exprebs to yonr companions at the
re union, my appreciation of their kindness
in extending the invitation, and say to them
. that although unable to be with them in
person I shall be in spirit. Wishing you
one and all, all the enjoyment that you could
dtfiire upon such an occasion, I am
Respectfully yours, Jko. W. Geary.
lie next, at the request of the Committee
rrad the following poem prepared for the
occasion
SKKTClIEo CF THE POHTAGK RAIXHOAD.
Long time ago, when we were yocng,
We think in twenty-nine'.
Or maybe thirty was the year.
Our project wa3 designed.
To build a railroad across the hills
As a connecting link,
And join canals, both East and West,
Was the design, we think.
The largest wisdom of the State
Was all collected hither,
To give their views and throw their weight
All in the scale together,
un;l starf the work as best they could, " - -'
To push with miht and main; -
And build a road of forty miles,
Iiiclulic inclined planes. . ,
Canal Commissioners, we think,
Same time had been appointed :
James Clark, of Indiana town.
Was President annointed.
Sylvester Wclb, a man of worthy
Possessed of education,
Was deputised to run the line
And find the best location-
Is
He organized a noble band
Of able engineers,
AiuFsent them out to run the lino
Along with overseers.
Commencing dovrn nt Couemaugh,
They climbed the highest hills,
Then down the gap to Gaypport,
Below M'Cahan's Mills.
Commencing work in early Spring,
As some do well remember,
They pushed it through with all their might.
And finished In November.
Then soon the work was parceled but,
As some considered fair,
While half the nations on the globe
Were represented there. At Vie Letting."
The work went on with lightning speed
For 3'cars two, three or more,
When finally it was opened wide
In the Spring of thirty-four.
As transportation spread itself
And moved along tho planes,
Some towns and villages sprang up
Whose traces still remain.
The Summitj one among the rest,
Had flourished in its day :
j place of pleasure and resort,
Wbore strangers loved to sUy
Designfov-' uen and demagogues,
w'hosehe.-'-rts were set on plunder,
Concocted plaus o tear ik UP
And reud it au1 asunder.
It was a very pleasant place,
I i Where strangers love J 0 r(
roam,
And where many an honcs
f wnrkirnTTnan
Had bought himself a home
But now. alas, there's little left
Of former greatness there;
It has passed away, and may be classed
Among the things that were.
The road has also had its day
And served iti generation,
And nothing now but lightning speed
Will suit this Yankee nation.
Whatever may have been Its faults,
And some we know there were.
It educated many men
For usefulness tl.-e where.
A chaDge of base was soon proposed
By thoso who held the reins
To build a road around the hills,
Avoiding inclined planes.
Contractors all, both great and small
From snowy white to sooty,
Assembled here to get the spoils
And pocket all the booty.
Then a corporation stout and strong
Came at us in the rear,
It gobbled up our property
And left us nothing here.
One thing we had almost forgot
While speaking of location.
It is of a hunter cute and sharp,
His name was Adam3-ation.
lie settled here in early life,
Midst young creation's bloom ;
He shared his cot with honor bright,
And still had lots of room;
One day as he was in a glee,
While in the woods a straying,
le blundered on the engineers
As they wore out surveying.
Ah hooh ! by dam," he Fays to Welsh,
'Here comes Neaso Adams ation ;
1 want you to bring your railroad here,
Close to my coal-bank-ation.
"And if you do you'll save yourself
oome cxooKea litigation ;
But if vou don't, inst tnfc it ci;
lo h 1 or through damnation. "
"Ah7iooh!"
But enough of this, we'll droo tho theme.
A 1
ab we nave too long tarried ;
We'll write no more in verse or prose
Till somo of you get married.

old times," and closed by complimenting the

of the ceremonies concluded with three rous

resolution to "do it again" next year.
lhe dancing was resumed and continued
for some time, when it was ascertained that
A. Kopelin, Esq., had. arrived, when he was
called upon and responded with hi8 usual
force and eloquence. Meantime supper was
waiting, and all partook of a sumptuous
feast. After supper dancing was resumed.
and the party did not fully break up until
the small hours of morning.
Mr. David Humphrey, Mr. James Smith.
and others, who had principal charge of the
arrangements, exerted themselves during the
whole day and evening to secure the com
fort of every guest, and they succeeded ad
mirably. Upon the whole, dnnng many years, we
have not, at any public entertainment, ex
perienced the same enjoyment, and when
another anniversary brings around a like re
union, "may we bo there to 6ee." y

Tho last Huntingdon Journal, in appeal
ing to its Radical friends to vote the whole
ticket, asked whether the rebels should be
permitted to come back and rule tho North
with an iron rod, as it did before tho war.
We judge from the inklings that have al
ready reached us as to tho result ou Tuesday
last, that tho people prefer a rod of iron to
a red of steal we might say whole acres of
steal under which they have labored and
groaned for the last seven years. We doubt
not the rod of iron has entered the soul of
tho Journal man since the election, and that
ihfra is a terrible Nash-ing of teeth in that
locality, About this time.

The election is over tho men with the
most votes have won the day and the best
thing for us all to do is to settle down to tho
routine affairs of life, and buy all we need

Death of a Graduate cf Kotre Dam3.
All the many friends of Augustixe E.
Tammaky, and especially his old college
friends, were profoundly grieved to hear that
he had met with a premature death. Ilo
was a young man cf robust constitution,
and of more than ordinary grade cf talent.
His genial manners, Lis usually strict ob
servance of college regulations, and his high
order of intellect, endeared him to the Stu
dents, ODicers and Professors of the Institu
tion. The following extract from a letter receive
by one of the students, was tho firs.t au
nouncement we had of hi3 death ; since
then we learn that his death was caused by
an accident on the JNorthern Ueutral Rail
road :

are strongly appealed to in gatherings of this
