A pretty well authenticated rumor
Las reacbed every hole and corner of the
county to the effect that our Railroad is to
be.completed the coming season. This is
certainly cheering news, for, besides giv
ing employment to many idle laborers, it
will revive business of all kinds all along
the line, and, when completed, prove im
mensely profitable to the Company by rea
son of increased travel and largely aug
mented shipments both ways. In comb

President, George F. Miller, whom we

of the Road, has informed us that tb j un

TUF CHARLEY KtSS MYSTERY.
Identify the- Morse which the Ab

Mr Christian K Ross, father of Charley
Ross, his little son Walter, and Detective
Seltick examined a horse at A an Fleet s
club stables in Fair street, Newark, on
11th. The horse was recognised *byr AA'al
ter as the one which was driven by the
abductors of hn brother.
On the 23d of October a boy inquired
the price for boarding a horse in the stable,
say ing he had been sent to inquire by an
old gentleman Three hour* afterward
the lad took the horse to the stable*. The
animal was thin and sunburned. On the
25th of the same month an elderly man,
who is described a* M. slier, the dead bur
glar, called with the boy, and pretending
to be the owner, told the hostler to wash
the animal's tail and mane with salt and
water to lake the sunburned appearance
away. On the 28th an expressman called
for the horse, saying that a man bad sent
him from the Bull's Uead Hotel in New
York. The expressman did not have the
money to pay for the horse's boarding,
and Mr. A'an Fleet refused to let the
horse go. Mr. Van Fleet has never
h< ard anything mure about the ownership
of the horse, which is still in the stable*.
Superintendent AA'alling's published de
scription of the animal corresponded so
minutely with the horse in the F'air street
-tables that Mr. A'an Fleet telegraphed to
the Superintendent, and yesterday little
Waller Ross said he was sure it was the one
that the abductors drove.

tkellered her for a lifetime. Oh! what
barter and tale in a marriage vow, prom

tvl at naught, and never a thought of the
vital importance of the tarred vow. 11 w

not to be envied.
The glistening robes were all put aside
The die wa® call—was she indeed to lay
away the Imago of Charles Morton in a
secret chamber of her heart, enshrine It
with tho memories of happy days now
thrown away ? Walking to an escritoire
of exquisite design, she touched a secret
spring and brought forth a package —gaz

Charles"—he *nid. and retracing htr
steps to the grate, where smouldered a sea
coal fire —tossed the outpouring® of one

CHAPTER II
Judge Lenwood'a mansion was a blaze
of light, carriages rolled to the scene of
mirth and festivity. The bride lookod
beautiful in trailing robe* of silk, white as
the foam crested waves of a It in pest-tossed
sea, as the bridal cortege entered llio gay
talon, the guests arose in Mini-circles,
and the beautiful Episcopalia- services
were performed A* the last word was
uttored that bound Kate Lenwoo.l to Count
Delnnor the grand piano pealed forth in
notes almost divino B.itboven's wedding
march—wail after wail realed through that
vast and sumptuous *a!on and the quiver
, ing note* found no response in the heart of
proud Kate Lcnwood, for ber thoughts
j were far away, yes fsr awsy in the golden
days of sweet sunshine, when Clisrle*
Morton was indeed her all. She again *a
ill the old farm orchard of aunt Eunice,
the blossom* falling all about her in snow
~y and fragrant beauty ; she feels the beau
tiful May sunset shedding* golden w armth
and beauty about her, and with u sicken
ing pain in her heart she gazes on the man
for whom she promised to forsake father
and mother, the comforts of a princely
homo with nil it* warm attachments.
There be stood, grand, noblo and almost
divine to look upon. Yet Charles Morton
came between and the bride of an hour
was at heart a mourner. "Away wierd
phantom of the past. I will be guy.' qx
claimed Kate and wreathing her face with
smile*, and none in that vast assemblage
would Judge the crushing of a hoart penl
up full of tears.
Tho gushing strains of a Mozart march
walled soft and sweet ; merrier hear s than
the bride bound to the enchanting strains,
and glad he.rta beat love to hearts that
were in unison. Count Delanor had led
tho peerless Kate into an alcove of a bay
window fragrant with (-fotic plant#, and
poured again the vile reiteration of a heart
dark with deceit into the ear of his newly
made wile, who entranced for the moment
with the honeyed words of tho vile in
triguer, bending low to estch tho echo of
every word thst fell from his false lips.
Then she stood gazing upon hini with part
ed lipa, drinking in the love phrases that
fell from his dewy mouth a false happiness
" which she took for the leal, had posses
son of her, and in that moment of transito
ry triumph sba fell her heart respond to
hi*. .Vile and dark as Kuroclydon witds—

CURIOUS I.EOKNIy
The Festival of the Av, which has
been fr long age* observed in Verona,
grew out of the following . ircumstance* :
According to the legend, the young as
on which ourSa'i.nir entered Jerusalem
was i-et at liberty immediately after, ar.J
pr< filing by hi opportunity, to <k t>> trave
ling in Palestine, from whence .he niude
the tour of Egypt, visiting every place of
interest or note, and nolu.dv appear* to
have caught him ! Crossing the .Mediter
ranean dry-shod, without the aid of any
ship or bark whatsoever, he went to Cy
prus, Rhodes, Camlia, Malta, .Sicily ; he
then walked up the Adriatic to Venice,
which city, by the way. was not then in
•xWlence; but he teems not to have like.i
the little island, for soon lie passed on to
Verona, where he fixed his residence, and
where he died at a very ripe age. The
pious and hospitable Veronese placed hi*
remains in a reliquary of the same shape,
and they kept it in the church dedicated
to "Saint Mary <•( the Organ*;" every
year this int"re*ling and valuable donkey
was carried in sol. run procession through
the town of Verona : at the present date,
the Festival of the Asses has become a
mere name.
The Genoese were fortunate onouga to
obtain the tail of the above-mentioned as*,
and they kept it with great piety in th
Church of Saint Doniinick, which stood
where the Theater Carlo Felice was after
ward built
in the city of Constance, on the !al;e of
the *-uiiO name, aptopg lliQ relic* may be
seen the spider swallowed by Saint Con
rad, when taking the wine at matt,—the
spider seems to have made good his claim
to mummification by making liisicxit from
the thigh oi the saint, without having done
any harm during his residence within.
Two lamb- belonging to Saint Francis
of A-tisi distinguished themselves im
mensely by pious acts; ono of thern went
early to wake a lady whom ho afterward
conducted to mas*, and the other lamb at
tended muss every day, remaining on hi*
knees during the entire service I
In the curious legend of Saint Julian en
countering a deer in a wood, there i* a
trace of the Eastern belief in transmigra
tion. The is nl went hunting deer in a
forest, when suddenly the animal he wa
following stood at bay and spoke thus;
"Do not kill me, for, in so doing, thou
wouldst kill thine ancostors."
Saint Koch, Roquo, i always portrayed
with a dog inclose company, to com memo
riae the story, that, being struck down by
the Plague when for from all human aid
in a wood, he was discovered by this dog,
who brought him food every day till ho
was entirely restored to health.
The crab of Saint Francis Xavier lias
been rendered more notorious by souse cu
rious old frescoes in Sienna, than by the
printed histories which relate that the saint
being dwirous to culm a M'ddtn squall,
r. arluil hi* litDtl out l"'JO*d tln bulwark

It would appear from the report j
from counties, that in many localities
the growth in Grange* has been over
500 per eeut tho paat year, with an
increase in membership of over GOO'i
per Cent.
Last January the order numbered ]
in Pennsylvania about 2,000; it ha* '
since increased to over 20,000. The),
uurabt-t of Granges has increased 1 ,
from "0 to -}4O,
At mivtu o'clock preciacly, tho or-i
gan pealed forth its cheerful note*, j
while the Patrons joined in the atir- <
ring song of "Work, tho Night is
Coming." It was genuine ngricultu-l.
ral singing, such as would nerve auy'
farmer to redoubled energy in his la- 1
borious work of cleariug the fore*U ;
and tilling the foil.
The meeting was called to order, !
when B. I>aporte was selected as
chairman, and Bros. J. W. Quiggle, j
aud Wn. Fulmer, elected as vice I
presidents, It M Foresntau was elect- !
ed secretary, and D. if. Bennett, assist- J
aut secretary, j.
Mr. La porta then introduced Vic- 1
tor K. Piolett, Bradford. He did not (
know that he was to be called u(>ou to,
deliver a public address, but as he {
had I seen requested t-> speak, he pro-j i
pviseil to relate the advantages derived t
front the organifation kuown a* the" :
Patrons of Husbandry. The farmers |
of America had built up the great
interests of the natiou. There was
not a dollar of added wealth but wliatj
wa® the result of the farmer's toil.
They furnished the raw materia! for
everv fabric, and should not stand at <
the foot of the ladder w hen the 'les |
tii ti of profit was considered. They j
pro(>osed to place the farmer upon n
platform where he would be equal to i
others Heretofore he had been iso
lated, but was now coming ont inUr
the full sunlight. The capitalists
were making their tweutr per cent,
aud building large edifices; manufac
turers realised their forty or fifty p* r
oeut. while lite farmer, who furnished
the raw material,did not realize three;
per cent. They were right in organ
izing, for the Corn Exchange declared
what farmer* should rtceive | great
corporations worked upon the oo op
erative plan, and were as unyielding
a® the mountains, and while they ar
range their tables, if the farmer com
plains of their figures, thev modeetly
reply, "You must be guided by the
law of supply and demand." tireat
corporations watered their stock five
times, y<gt. ten times its value, while
the farm -r could not water hi* stock
only as God has directed. Tho que#
tion of what a farmer was worth—the
cash value of hi* farm—was easily
found out. It wa* discovered when
the beautiful edifice in which he was
spraking wa® erected. The farmer
must not make over six jer cent., yet
the capitalists want their twenty, for
ty and fifty per cent. As to agricul®
tii ral implements—they wanted them
manufactured right at homo- Strike
at the railroads ! Crushing manufac
turing intercaU! that is the cry. If
they deal directly with the manufac
turers, invite them to their midst, gir-j
ing work to laboring men, he would
ask in the name of common sense liow
they were crushing out manufactur-j
ing interest!. As to butter. In Will
iamsport they paid teu cents more
than it cost the farmer to make it, but
when it got into the hands of the spec
ulator in Philadelphia, nine cents
more was charges!. The additional
cost of placing it in the market was
about two cents, aud when the con
sumer grumbles, just say to him, "joiu
the grange, and help us find out thai
fellow that's got llie seven cents."
He had heard an opponent of the
Grange say, that the farmers would
yet be tenants. What! peasantry
like the unfortunate of the old world!
God of heaven ! The tillers of the
soil —the real estate owners of the
land subjects! Never. Belter that
this fair land should have long ago
sunk into the depths of the ocean, or
that again the aborigines hold supreme
sway. The gentleman throughout
s|ioke with great earnestness, and re
lated many humorous anecdotes. He
closed with an earnest appeal to those
outside to become working members
of an organisation embodying the
safety of the people, and retired amid
hearty applause.
