•• .iy, the 4th inst., we had
. " 'sh the rare occurrence of a
anniversary of an aged eoup
ing. They were Lucas Catfc-
rs - Chloe Gushing,
ia to see them on their gold-
en eve. but we found them in the quiet
enjoyment of their musings over the
long past and talking of ad the way and
how the Lord had brought thein on their
life journey together in all these years.
How they Lad struggled and toiled on:
how they had l<een delivered oft from
sickness, and death, and great sorrow
and trouble: and neither did they forget
to make nu utioU of their joys, and com
forts and friends.
But what a long stretch of time! how
many years to pass over! what a p.-ri<d
to look l ack upon! how strikingly fresh
the memory of many things and obsti
nately }H>or and confused of others.
What events and episodes in their
own life and w hat a great manlier of
public events must have crowded them
selves before their minds. What changes
in the world .-ince they started out as
twain. What revolutions in society, in
customs, in opinions and in industrial
arts; modes of locomotion, of commerce
and of thought. "When they entered
upon life together how different "the
ways of the world." the fashions, opin
ions, habits and labors. Then there
were no raihoads, steamship, tele
graphs. and but little, if any, of the
multitudinous machinery to cany on
the work of agriculture and housekeep
ing and of the inventions of the arts and
sciences in their application in hasten
ing forwaid the civilization of the world
and the progress of the race.
1 Pity years ago. and still lioth living,
thi-y have ii\d as one the grandest half
century for civil advancement and mo
ral pi gross of all time. Then, heathen
ism, superstition and ignorance darken
ed and degraded three-fourths of the
gl- U-; now, the gospel of the Saviour
Las been spread over all the face of the
earth, enlightening, civilizing and lift
ing up the world everywhere nearer to
God. Then, in cur own land, slavery
was dttrrnd !•} masters to be a ne-ces
sary evil, afteiward a divine institution
—now utterly abolishtd. Then tduca
ti'-n belonged to the privileged classes
alone, now, like a network of light and
influence, the incomparable '-Common
School System" prevails as the highest
and equ;,l temporal blessing to all. So
they yet live to behold the evolving
events to be wrought out by this won-/
di nul end of devekq meats.
Mr. and Mrs. Gushing, (whose ags
aie respectively 7h and 08,} have lived ;
here for -0 years and have always been
most highly esteemed for their worth of
chan.ch i and chiistian influence.
Mr. C. has been a justice of the peace
for many years and } ionoui ctd as one
of the saltst. most cautious, just and
conscientious that has ever niied the
position. He is also a Deacon of a; d
as both are, member of the Baptist
Church; but for almost all their resi
dence here there has not been a society
of their denomination and hence they
have worshijied and endeavored to do
their duty in otlur Churches of the
\I: c.-. Four years ago a Church was
organized here, regular worship estab
lished and a sanctuary almost complet
ed, tow; :<1 which perhaps their perse
vering efforts, more than of any other,
contributed to brn g about. Always

Tlie Wellsboro Presbytery held its
regular fall meeting on last Tuesday and
Wednesday at Raymond. G)n account
of the great distance fnmi nearly ah of
the cLurches in Tioga county, there w.is
not more than a half attendance of min
isters and scarcely any of the elders, but
the large attendance of the people in the
neighborhood w as a good indication hour
much they appreciated such an ecclesi
astical gathering.
The sessions were opened by a sermon
from Rev. P. Camp, of Fall Brook, both
able and scriptural. Rev. John Cairns,
of Osceola, was chosen M derrtor at d
pi cached a most thoughtful and interest
ing sermon on Tuesday evening. On
Wednesday afternoon the sacrament of
the Lord's s-jpper was administered by
Revs. Calkins and Landis and a fine ser
mon preached by Rev. Dr. Mitchell with
great powtr and impressive ness.
Aside from usual routine of business
nothing of public interest transpired,
i v • pt that the event of death in remov
ing one of our ministers was suitably
recognized and the admission of another
to our number in the jierson of Rev. 11.
W. G ongdou, the minister supplying the

Mansfield and Beecher's Island, our
Pri-sla tery once more sian>ls without a
single vacancy, which, in consideration
of the majority of them being small, is
abtmdant cause for great thankiuluess.

ED. JOURNAL: Will you please let
me tell you and your readers a little
of the name and doings of the Presby
tery, which has just closed its sessions
in tiiis place.
And first the name.—l have of late
often been asktd what is a Presbytery?
It is a religious body or court composed
of cue minister and one member, a rul
ing elder, from each Presbyterian
Church in a given portion of the coun
try. This name is a very ancient one
and may be found in one of the books
of the New Testament. This, the Pres
bvtery of Weilsboro, embraces the coun
ties of Tioga. Potter and McKean and
has thirteen churches. A Presbytery
meets for the transactions of business
semi-annually in or with one of the
Churches within its bounds, and is sim
ilar to the yearly Conference of the
Methodist Church and to the Associa
tion of the Baptist Church.
The meeting which has just been held
here was brief, only two days, but quite
interesting, and attended by a good num
ber of our jeople and several from your
village. I s..id the session held here was
brief, but not lazy I notice this from
a remark made by a bystander about
one of the members as he came out on
the street, "That man ain't much of a
preacher. I know, he looks too lazy!
Let me tell how lazy he is. or was. in
this meeting, lie lives thirty-two miles
from here. He got up before daylight
Tuesday morning, was here at dinner,
and not by railroad, either, acted its
Chairman, or Moderator, through all
the meetings, except the last, preached
Tuesday evening and drove back to his
I
home in the afternoon ami night of
Wednesday—making sixty-four miles
traveled in the two days lvsides the
other labor in attending to the business
of the meeting. Another minister. Rev.
J. F. Calkins, of Wellsboro. left here
after four o'clock to drive down Pine
Creek to Vermileva's, about twenty-two
miles, Wednesday night. Are they

Tiie sickly season is at hand: the great
heat makes the system feeble and debil

den attacks of disease. But the regular
use of Ro'irer's Wild Cherry Tonic will
invigorate the system, brace up the shat
