The frail fabric of paper Is still firm; while the strong hand that poured out upon It the heart's throbs of love, of of hope, oml of despair, is moulder* tng In the grave. Letters filled with anxieties, blessed, perhaps,-in their rea lization ; or hopes defeated in their very accomplishment; letters soiled with pro fessions of everlasting affection that ex haled with a few morning’s dews ; and others, stamped with sincere love, that seems, ns the time*stalned sheet trembles in the hand, to breathe from Heaven upon it; letters with announcements of births, to be received with a family all hall I and with the fond records of open* ingchiJdhood—and then—the black lined sheet, and the hastily broken -seal, and the story of sickness and death; letters with pay disclosures of betrothals, of il limitable hopes and sweet .reliance; and a little further down in the file, conjugal dissatisfaction,dickering and disappoint ments; and perchance the history from .y ea l to.y.e^iLOf.happy, tried and made stronger by trial,-ceinriUed by every joy, brightened all along its course by cheerfulness and patience, and home love and charities; but even in this there Is solemnity, for it is past. The sheaves are gathered into the garner, and on this earth la nothing left but the seared stub ble-field. •"* • , The preaent life is sleeping and waking; it Is “ good* night” on going to bed,and ’‘good morn ing” on getting up; it la to walk in the garden, and see the flowers open, and bear the birds sing; it is to have the post man bring letters; it is to have news fropi Hast, West, North and South ; It Is to read old hooka and new books; it is to see pictures and hear music ; it is to pray with a family morning and evening; it la to alt in the twilight and meditate’ it is to ho well, and sometimes to be ill; it is to have business to do nnd to do it; it is to have breakfast, and dinner and tea'; it la in’ belong to a town, nnd to have neighbors, nnd to he in one circle.of ac quaintance; it is to have friends to love one; it is jo have sight of dear obi faces \ and with some men U is to he kissed dally by the satne loving lips Tor fifty years; nnd U■is to know themselves thought of many times a day, in many places, by children and grand-children, and many friends. They Bay.— ,, Theyßfty”i*a nuisance. Ho is forever making mischief.- Forever poking his nose into somebody's busi ness. Forever vilifyingsomebody’s char? acter. Forever doing something mean. -We suspect ‘They Buy’has ruiued about ns many people as whiskey and the faro bank. '‘They Say” Is a snake in the grass. Professing the wannest, friendship to your face, he vilely traduces yon behind your back—not in the first person singu lar, be It remembered, for ho is too crafty for that, but be retails, with Amiuadub Sleek-like sorrow, what oilier people any of yon—in short what “They Say. M . . “They Say" is a humbug. TearQfTthe hypocritical, mask he wears, a'nd'you shad see, very often,'knavery, and base ness of the blackest kind. Sometimes, we admit, “They Say” is weak-minded, and slanders people more through Igno rance and thoughtlessness than a wish to destroy their good name, but he Is none the less a nuisance for that, and God help his victims in, either case. . Horrible Practice.— Several fatal accidents have occurred recently on the Northern Central Railway,.which, if re port is true, were the result of a practice among flagmen, which is horrible. The duty of these officials is to go some dis tance to tho rear of the train, if it is de tained on the track, and give warning to any trains that may be coming the same direction. , It Is necessary to remain on such duty, sometimes for several bburs, and In order to get some rest in this 1 time •. it is said they lay their headsou the track and go to sleep, waiting for the noise and jar of the approaching train to wake them up. Sometimes they have lost sleep for several nights, and consequently they sleep so soundly that* they are un conscious to all that may transpire around them. The train cornea thundering along and th* unconscious sleeper is either killed or'made a cripple for life. And besides thiu, human life is recklessly en dangered. I? It is true that there are some men who make a practice of doing so, it Is a species of half-bmined recklessness, that is-horrible in the extreme and al most beyond belief.— Wrighfsville Star.

Socie ty.— Oneof the chief attractions of our County Fair was the exhibition of the Cumberland County Horticultural So ciety. Tliis Society has its headquarters at Mecluulicsburg, ami is in its fourth year. Its officers for the current year are: Jj, Kauffman, President; C. B. Nialey, Treasurer; Daniel Shelly, Secre tary ; and Alex'. « Wentz, Esq;, Chair man of. Executive Committee, assisted hy active and earnest workers. The So ciety bus two exhibitions each year, the full* exhibition, held from September 13 to September 10, was admitted to be the best offirt yet made'. For the past three years Ihe Society has exhibited at the Slate Fair, and at the lust one, held at Scranton, there wore on exhibition about one thousand plates of fruit, of which the Cumberland , County Horticultural Society furnished over six hundred, cans- Iny.somcof Hie visitors to remark that‘in the way of fruit, Cumberland County wan the State.’ The display of the Society at our Coun ty Fair excelled anything wo ever saw. ft occupied the whole of the east end o the new building, which was filled will fmlr, tho vegetable display being crowd ed out. Among the exhibitors we notice! Jacob Mninma with over 120 varieties of apples, some being monsters in size. Wm. Heagy, large display, 0. B. Nlsley, 13. Stauffer, line display of pears, Henry S. Rupp, with splendid apples and pears, John Rchwerdt, with a plate of apples of the “Gloria Mumlf' variety, weighing A pound each, Isaac Miller, exhibited foillimaliler apples, one of svbicb weighed A pound, Wm. Ivllnoilinst, with beautiful llumbosand Maui moth pears, and a boatof others. Capt. D. iS.helly, had a large plate of Concord Grapes, which were the finest we ever saw, and were os good as I hey were beautiful, as we can testify having fasted them, the Captain being one of those liberal souls who have the promise of being made fat. The canned fruit was exceedingly fine, and the display very | large. Mrs, W. Miller, having over 50 1 jars, Mrs. Zeariug, and Mrs. Jos. Leas, each largo collections. The finest Jellies we, have ever seen were among the dis play, and were exhibited by Mrs. W. H. Zearing, of Shlremaustown. In fact each member of this society seemed to vie with each other in placing on the ta bles the finest articles that can bo pro duced. The Society had on exhibition overono hundred samples of potatoes, embracing over 40 kinds, and a large (jtmntity of vegetables, but as we said before, owing to a scarcity of room, these could not be properly displayed. We earnestly hope the two societies may co-operate In future, and wo would suggest to tho officers of the Agricultur al Society the propriety of building a Horticultural Hull, and placing it at Che disposal of tho Cumberland County Hor ticultural Society BURLINGTON.—Leaving tho East and arrive Ing at Chicago or Indianapolis,' how shall wo loach the Went- ?

Tho Mld dlo Branch, entering Nebraska at Platlsmouth posses through Lincoln, the State Capital, and will this year bo finished to Fort XCearney, form* log tbo shortest route across IheCoutlucbt by ovorlOO miles. Another branch of tho B. M., diverging at Rod Oak, falls into a line running down tho Missouri through fit. Joo to KansasClly, and nil Kansas. Passengers by this route to Kansas, seo Illinois, Southern iowa, and Missouri, and, by a alight divergence, can seo Nebraska also. Lovers of lino views should remember tho Burlington Route, for Its towns “high-gleaming fiom afar”—lta ivco-frlugod streams— Us rough binds and quarries—lts coru-oceaua stretching over the prairies further than oyo can roach. Land-buyers will bo sure to remember it, fo they have friends among tho two thousand who have already bouglvt-fauna from Geo. 8. Harris tho Land Commissioner of tho U. &M. U.
