DEATH or PH. MCCOY —One by ono,
our old and most worthy citiaona are dit-
Appearing from our mldt. To thoao who
have boon o recently announced, wo aro
now pained to add ono moro to the liat and
announce the audden death of nnothor o'
our useful, enterprising and respected clli
r.ena, Dr. John M. McCoy, of Milesburg
Iron Works, who died suddenly, at hit
ruaidnnce, on Sunday morning last, of heart
disease, aged about 04 yeara. Dr. McCoy
was a native of Miillin county, but located
in this place, after graduating nt the Uni
veraity of Pennsylvania, in the practice of
medicine, and for a number of yeura pur
sued his profession hern, in which ho at
tained a creditable eminence by hit skill
and intelligence, and a boundless popularity
by bit kind, genial and pleasant association
with tho people. Many years ago, how
ever , ho abandoned tho active duties ot hia
profession, except ao far aa tho poor requir
ed hia services, and associated with Mr.
Jumea 11. Linn in tho purchase of the
Mileaburg Iron Worka, which they con
ducted jointly until the 3eath of Mr. Linn,
in 187<i, when the entiro management de
volved upon Dr. McCoy. He was equal
to the accumulated duties thrown ujion
him, and notwithstanding the severity of
the timos, has carried on these splendid
works, adding much to the neatness and
beauty which surrounds them.
Dr. McCoy was a member of the Pres
byterian church for many years, ever wil
ling to contribute liberally of his means l
the funds and charities of the church. He
was also n member of the Masonic Order,
who will hold his memory in pleasant rec
ollection.
His funeral took place from his late
residence yesterday morning at 11 o'clock.
It wa* one of tho largest that ha* ever
occurred iu ihi* county.
THIRTY-EKJIITH A HKI VERS ART.—Thir
ty-eight years ! It seem* a long time ; and
yet is ju-t tho time, we aro informed, that
ha* elapsed since Mr. James Hamilton and
wife, of Pleannt Gap, firt commenced the
journey of life together. There is somo-
thing very majestic in such an advanced
age * thi* fact in'imate* they have attain
ed, and in a couple walking together in
happiness for so many year* of their llrca.
Mr. Hamilton ha* been long known a* one
of our mot worthy citixons. Hi* good
lady i* a grand-daughter of the renowned
•ten Philip Benner, one of the earliest
settler* of thi* county, tin thi* occasion
the many relative* of Mr. and Mr*. Ham
ilton resolved to assemble at their home
and make it an occasion of festivity. Over
forty in ail, both great and small, met at
the borne of the Hamilton*' on Saturday
evening, and several hour* of unalloyed
pleasure was the result. Old and young
alike yielded to tho prevailing enjoyment.
The Pleasant Gap band was in attendance
and discoursed the most plea so of music
under the direction of its efficient leader,
Mr. Lot Struble. Tho members of this
band are all noted for their pleasant and
social qualities, and f-w can furnish better
music, so it may he inferred what a valua
ble addition they were to the entertain
ment. May thi* happy couple livo long
and enjoy many more such happy anni
versaries wa* the wish of all a* they sepa
rated, which we cordially endorse.

flrmifo ELBCTIOBS.— The election for
township and borough officers takes place
this year on the 18th of February. It is
exceedingly important to the people that
they be represented by good and competent
officers, and we commend the subject thus
early to their attention. Our people are
oppressed by taxation almost beyond their
ability of payment, and they should be
careful to select such men only a* will
enforce the most rigid economy in our
municipal affairs.
A CARD.—The gentleman whose name
is appended to the following letter asks us
to insert it and thus vindicate him in the
eye* of hia Centre county friends. Hoping
some of our readers are better acquainted
with the circumstances than we are, we

will upon that occasion deliver hit beat

Tho reputation of Schuyler Colfax aa it
atateaman and orator dona not require any
comment on our part. The pro#* through

of the excitement at 6: 26, the 4 -.30 train
being late. Many private parties, know

Letter from Kaneaa.
(WrtMsnSw Um-Oatrr IVm.* <.J
"ATCHISON, KAN., July 14, 187 ' J.
Kansas ia bound to be the greatoat
Stale between the Allegheny and Kocky
mountain*. She lias tbe so J, tbe climate,
and the men to make her sncb. The
•oil is a* rich a* the Garden of Wen,
audi oan bo bought for n aeng. Under
tho late decision of Secretary Hchurr,
over tm million arret of land in t hie State
ia now open to pre eruption at $1,25 per
ncro, payable in five yeans, without in
ternet or taxes. These land* are a* rich
as Bny in the world, and lie adjoining
the great line* of railroad, built by the
grant of government lands. In each
land grant there wa* is reservation in
tkaae word*: "And all such land* ao
granted by thin section, which shall not
IH sold by *aid company within three
year* after the entire road shall have
boon completed, ahull lit subject p,
•demerit and preemption like other
j land*, at a price not exceeding $1,25 per
| acre. —See decision of Secretary Hcburx,
July 23, 1878, page 2; We have over
21,000 tnile* of railroads finished in three
sear,, in this State, and the whole ten
million acre*, tlitis opened to pre-emp
tion, lie immediately along side of these
great railroadi. Congress gave these
giant railroad cor|>orktions. in all, over
two hundred and twenty five millions of
acre*. It was the biggest ewintlle of the
Nineteenth century, but thanks to old
I'omeroy, (who bad the above clause in
serted) ten million acre* will now re
vert to settlers, at #1.25 |* r acre. The
railroad companies have been selling
these lands from to sl2 per acre.
Never before in the history of tbe world
ha* there been MCII a chance for men
j who want to preempt land*.
Don't misunderstand me when 1 say,
"thanks to obi I'omeroy." I am a
democrat, without fenr or trembling.
5 e*. liere in Kansas, where it cosis
something to stand up for democracy,
for there i hardly a democratic county
or district in the State. But give old
i'om. his due. He did more for the State,
and th- |*oor act tiers by inserting the
afort-attid clause in the great land awin
; die, than was ever done by any other
j Senator from this State, and this ia one
: of the reason* why the moss of the peo
ple here cling io old Pom. •* with
hooks of steel. We elect a L". S. Sena
tor here on the 2*l li instant, and while
I do not think Pomeroy can be elected,
it is a'>oul certain, that he can elect his
man, hut I don't want to write politics.
Kansas if a great State and destined
.to be far greater. It took Illinois fifty
' years to get one half million of |>eop!e t
while Kansas, in one hundred days last
spring, received over three hundred thou
*and, and this st ring wo expect a half
million more The last monthly report
of the Suie Board of Agriculture, shows
that the total amount of wheat sown in
j this State is 1.522.787 acres, which it is
estimated will yield at least twenty five
million hu*hels. Tbe winter wheat is
in excellent condition all over the State.
; From data furnished by railroad com
l>aniea and land officers it is shown that
1 over sixty thousand settlers have pur
chased in tbe last four months over one
million acrea of land, aad this ia tbe
j fall snd winter-
Atchison, which hardly existed
twenty years ago, ha* now over twelve
thousand people, nine railroads, an iron
j bridge costing over half a million, and
j averaging over SSOO per day in tolls;
over one hundred new buildings, mostly
brich, have been erected in the last
year. Not an empty house, nor an idle
man in the city—none at lewst who are
willing to work. Let the thousands of
idle men in your manufacturing lowna
conte here. They will receive a warm
and generous welcome. We don't want
' land nor railroad boni
speculators, nor tax title speculator*.
W have a full stock of them now.
Neither do we want men to come here
• to loan m-mey at 3 per cenf. per month j
( but we do Walll <urr.Mf, upright, hard
working men, with means enough to
j make a start, and such are sure to win.
North eastern Kansas i* an Eden of
loveliness—hardly an arte of waste land
—the soil as rich as a garden, with
plenty of e'esr sparkling streams that
remind one of old < entre, 'Tinton and
Union counties. Plenty of improved
1 farms, within five miles of this city,
equal to any in Penns, Brush or Nit
tany valleys, can now be bought from
#7 to SSO per acre. Wheat i* worth 78
cent* and other grains in proportion.
Seventy eight trams, mostly loaded with
grain, imrk, Ac., arrive and depart front
here daily. Land is cbesper than It
will ever be again. Send them on at
once.
