"Why Irit-mlv," said lie, with trembling crest,
".tore 1 speuk, perhnpH, 'twere best
To heed an aduge world re u owned,
And ace il any liens are round."
l'i jumped a hdiiiaia. "Say ! the fate,"
( iiiil he with joy, "have plaoed our DiaUa
Far out upon the garden will,
It' Vond our sight, licyond our call,
V here, undiMiirlicd, hy friend or loo.
They loudly 'cluck,' and think they crow."
His mind relieved, the elder siigo
riiid, "Ilrothere, we're lM-hind liie age;
Iut bins progreos. ' ("Ah, woe is we!"
In tones sepulchral groaned the three.)
They fight like warrior cocks of old,
And oh yc martyrs! how th'-y scold.
'Were riek of idleness and pUy j
We're growing sicker every Uy.

A wondrous plan! Each cock with test
Retook himself unto a neit.
And waited in maternal mood
The exit of a feithered brood ;

As dimly gathered shuh n of night,
1 heir truant insti-e apprnred in right;
Not with triumphal niitteh tin-) einne -Each
head was bowed with giief and shame;
From every eye streamed tears of wye,
And not a hcu essayed to crow.
"Why, whai'i the matter?" aked the four
Who aat within the ben house door.
"Matter?" quoth they, in di'Uiat note,
"Our sifter Peafowl's split her throat!
And we are sick with grief and paiu
We want our quiet homes aguin."
"Tnke (hem and welcome' said the tagej
"I far we all have rushed the age,"
Ko silently, with lordly err I.
Ench rooster stepped from off his nent,
Then looked upon his work abashed,

most earnest and persistent efforts,
succeeded in gulling a proposition
from tho Pennsylvania It. It Co., to
extend the road to Clearfield, under
the corporation of the Tyrono &
Clearfield Itailroud Co. The proposi

zens of Clearfield, and tho roud was
completed some two yctirs sinco. Hy
Ibis agreement, tho citizens of Clear
field were to utign to tho l'eun. It. It.

which cost ttbotit ?li,OH0; were also
to find the full right of way for tho

The perlormanco of this contract,
cost tbo citir.ons of Clearfield over

of the Tyrone and Clearfield road an
enterprise in which they huvo now no

one of the best roads in tho Slate.
Hut we must hasten with this article.

tho road. Wo eoriouly doubt wheth
er any two men now living will ogreo
upon any one fact, if compelled to tell
their story at different times, and
without previous conference.
There arc, however, a few facts
which we know to be true. One is
that the road is one the best ballasted

THE DRUNKARD'S LIFE.
The Atlantic Monthly gives tho fol
lowing graphic sketch of the daily
cxpcriciico of every drunkard :
The daily lifo of ono of tho steady
drunkards is like this: Upon getting
up in the morning, alter a heavy,
restless, drunkard's sleep, be is miser
able beyond expression, and almost
helpless In very bad cases, he will
gee double, und his hand will tremble
so ho on 11 not lift to his lip the glass
for which bo had u desire almost
amounting to mania. Two or three
stiirglasses of sprittious liquor will
restore him so far that bo can control
his 111 uncles, and gel along without
betraying bis condition. Alter being
up an hour, and drinking every ten
or ii flee 11 minutes, bo w ill il'inilly bo
uble to cut a pretty good break
'list, which, with tho aid of coffee, to
bacco, and a comparatively smull
quantity of liquor, bo will bo able to
digest. After breakfast, for some
hours he will generally bo nblu to
transact routine business, and associ
ate with bis fellows without exciting
their pity or contempt. A dinner
time draws near he feels llio necessi
ty of creating an nppetite, which he
ollen accomplishes by drinking some
of those infernal compounds which
aro advertised on tho eternal rocks
nnd mountain hides us bitter under
various names, offered to tho public,
and displayed behind bar in drink
ing saloons, somo with certificates at
tached, usually vilo compound or re
ftiso whisky, condemned w ines, cor
diuls, etc., mixed together and fla
voured to suit the tusto w ith 11 few
herbs, spices und sugar, and sold un
der tho names of tonics, restorer, ap
petizers, etc. Many persnn are in
duced to Inko them, In licvingthcm lo
be beneficial, w hen, if they knew the
vilo stuff from which they were made,
not one out of a thousand would touch
them.
It i in vain for advocate of tetn
peranco to v iito speak or labor for
reform, w hilo this shameful business
is carried on, nnd physiciuiis can be
found to sanction und recommend
Ihein.
These bitters do lash tho torpid
powers into n momentary, morbid,
fierce activity, which enable the vic
tim lo even cat n superabundant din
ner. Tho f.dso excitement subsides,
but the dinner remains, and il has i
not digesled. This culls for an oern-1
sionul drink liir three or lour hours,!
after which the system i exhausted,
anil the man feels dull and languid.

THE EXCURSIONISTS.
P. firny Meek, Ksrj , editor of tbo
Hellel'onlo Watchman, being a niember
of llio Hellefonto excursion party to
this place, on bis return home writes
down bis triput follows:
To Clkaiifiki,!). If uny of tho
thousands of reader of tbo Wiiti lniuni
want to huvo a pleasant lime for a few
days, let bim tako a liip over to
Clearfield. If you li vo on this side
llio right side of Tyrone, get aboard
of either conductor ll.iupl's or Ste
vens' train, on the fluid Kaglo Valley
H. It , and you'll find us accommoda
ting and gentlemanly conductors,
brakemou and baggage musters
over popularized a railroad. Hide
out over tho mountains on either
Irvin's or Meadvillo's train llio latter
won't blow the hair off your head
with swiftness und you'll find just
the same kind of w hole-souled, M ai 111
hearted, brave men in charge of curs,
brake nnd baggage ; and no difference
which train you make, you will be
behind as deserving, hard-working,
jolly firemen, and as efficient, trusty,
accomplished engineers whether it
bo Hussell on Jlanpl's, Hinge on
Stevens's, Jack Lathans on Irvin's,
or Huke Fox und Hen Marshall on
Meadville's, ns ever shoveled coal into
tho furnace, nr pulled a lever and
turned a steam test on an engine
It don't tako long alter leaving the
Ilald Kaglo Valley It. It , over which
utmost everybody ha already pasted,
to reach Clearfield. Al the Intersec
tion, four miles cast of Tyrone, you
sturl up tho mountain up heavy
grades, round shurp curves, over deep
ravines, across big fills, still going up,
up, looking down as you go al the
little bouse and hilly farm of the
hard -worked, heavy-faxed, poorly
paid farmers of the upper Hald Eagle
gazing down into dark forests, and
deep ravines widening und grow ing
until they blend into beautiful little
valley hundreds upon hundreds of
feet below. On up, und the engine,
healed und thirsty, stops for water at
the lonely little station of M t. Pleasant,
and then up, up, up again, over the
summit, through the barren brush of
the Allegheny und dow n past Sandy
Hidgc with its brick kilns, and scat
tered bouses, past Powclton with its
coal banks, und its toiling, taxed
miners, ou down to Orceola, a bright,
busy littlo town, where tho fire, on
last Saturday week, gent up in
smoko and scattered nsne, somo
threo hundred thousand dollars worth
of property, mills, machinery, lumber,
Ac , in a couple, of hours; on again to
Pbilipsburg a bustling, business,
thriving town, ibat expects, nl some
not far distant day, to be a' county
seat, and have its J udge und J 11 ry, its
Court House and Juil, just a other
county seuts huvo. It will bo a long
while, however, till this happens.
Here you hull for some, minutes, and
if you look round, you will seo on
every hand evidences of thrift, indus
try nnd enterprise You will find ns
good Heinoerais, and a radical Had
icals, as any tilnro in the Stale, can
' produce. And if yon bud timo to go
around you would pco some ns big
mills, as lino houses, and as enterpris
ing and prosperous people, as any
town of tbo sir.o in tho Stale
carl boast of. Hut you rnn't wait.
The engine bell laps and ofTj-nn start.
Out through the suburb of town,
past the Junction on llio branch road
that brings down daily, scores of tons
of coal for the main line to carry to
the cistern markets. On out into the
grass farm and stump patches ol
Clearfield, over as good a road bed
ns you have ever traveled, and you
soon hear tho brakesman call "Hliic
Hall." You look, and there is no
ball red, w hite, blue, green, or any
other colot in sight nothing but a
field or two nnd a water tank. Oif
again into the woods, past acre after
nrre of limber land, the ruins of old
saw mills, a few farms, and any
amount of stumps, ntul you arc nt
Wallaeeton, a smart little town with
about forty bouses, and ubout five
time that many inhabitants, named
aficr that is, the town, not the in
habitants Hon. Wm. A. Wallace, of
Clearfield. Another start and you
seo the same kind of country : woods
hero, fields there, bills here, hollows
j there, rocks, stumps, littlo creeks nnd
I dry gulches, jumbled together in in
describable confusion. Uigler is the
next station, named in honor of Kx
(lovcrnor lligler, of Clearfield, and
considerably liko Wallaeeton, only not
so much soin the number of its bouses
and inhnbitants On again nnd you
soon bring up nl a blacksmith shop, a
cross roads, two houses, a stable and
three or four cow , ami you tire ut
Woodland. On again, and if you can
see it, it will be Leonard, if you can't
eo it, it w ill I 0 Leonard unyhovr, for
that's the nurpe of tho station. Still
on, through tho woods and round the
bills, iicros a few fields, past any
amount of graiing cattle, over the
bridge that spans I'leai field creek a
very high, very long and very expen
sive bridge down to the river, up a
littlo ways, and you are al
ci.Kxni iri.n.
You want for dinner if you ride on
Irvin's train, and if on Mcudviilu's
it will bo supper you will hanker
after most. Into the bus, then, and
up to tho Mansion House that
w hero wo wero cared for, and such a
meal a yott will get such nn uppo
lito 0 you will have such a bed as
you will find. Well, there is no use
of talking about idem tho other ho
tels in Clearfield are good, wo know,
have clever landlords and attentive
servants, good "grub" and inviting
beds, but thcro is nnno of them thut
beat the Mansion Home. Tbo Shaw
nuly cipial it, but can do no more.
You won't stny long until you find
cut you are in n good place liud out
that you have "lit down" among
a friendly, enterprising, intelligent,
moral and refined people, ns inuke up

thut a poverty is only an idea, in nine
cases out of ten. Some men with

more for want of means, than others
with threo hundred. Tho reason ifij

His incomo is ten thousand, und hd
suffers enough from being dunned for

A man who earns a dollar n day, and

this is true. There are thousand und

never know n moment's peace, bccatisd

is really more happiness in tho worbl

among those w ho are called rich.
