May the freshly blos somed love bloom on into a fadeless flower which shall give forth its beauty and fragrance e'en through eternity ! TIIK BI.UKBI-RINU —Ira WATERS ALAIN FLOW IN TIIKIR NATURAL CHANNEL.— One of th tiißny natural wonders of wliirh Centre county ha* a largo proportion is what is known a* the It lm-Spring, situated on tins farm of J. Dunlop Bhttgcrl, at thu source of thu water* of Logan's Branch. It in larger tlmn tlio fatnouii spring from wliicli our town derive* It* nuinu, it* ex net depth, which i* known to hi! grunt, ha* never been definitely nncertaim-d, nrid its wutcra fa-cause of tlieir depth, are in hue the color of tin! ocean—which give* the spring its name. Thi* water, in however, of crystal-like purity and very cool. It i* related that yearn nince a yoke of oxen attached to a harrow plunged over the niden of the npring, disappeared within iU blue depth*, arid no trace* of them have ever nince been discovered. Thin tale, though not well authenticated, forum one of the dogma* of faith which many |mrnoni entertain in regard to the npring. At one time the flow of water from it found it way by a natural channel into Logan's liranch, but in the course of time large trim fell across itn outlet, nettled itnclt with the jaiint downward in the hii|io of two niden of a triangle, collected the leave* arid other ilrbri from the npring until at length an effectual obntruclion to the natural out let wa* formed. Thin eauned the water in the spring to rie until it soaked it* way in varioun direction* through the limentonn nek which form* it* niden and went no one known exactly whither. At all event*, the water flowed under ground for mile* before it found it* way into the bed of the creek. I>uring thin nutnrner the water in L>gan's liraneli ha* fa-en *o unprecr*]enlodtly low thai it bit* been found iiii|>*nib! to operate Maim * Axe Works. and the other manu fa> turing establishments situated on it* bank* and deriving their motive power fri'm thin nource, except for a portion of the time. The employe* and manager* have occupied a |*>rtion of their npafe time in •p>-culation concerning the Illue spring, and it apparently no disturbed their thought*, that they finally determined t<- request of Mr. Shugert th<> privilege of ex. (•erimenting u|*>n it. Permission Iming given, trial* were made, whii h have prov ed entirely successful, in |-erundiiig the •pririg to again *ink to it* former level and flow through it* old outlet. The increased water in the crock ha* alr--ady enabled Mann Axe \\ oik* to ojmrate more regu larly. and the spirit* of ail concerned are correspondingly elevated.

A I'II NII TO 7it a ALLKOUKXIM. — Afaiul ten o'clock in the morning of a lovely day in the early part of October we . l'fl the h<*j.iublo boriK! of our fried*!*, nestled among the Bald Kagle hill*, for a trip to the Allegbenie*. Nine of u*, large and *mall, crowded into a long wagon drawn by two tout borc*. We were a merry party. Nothing could lie more charming than our ride. The road that wound up the mountain'* ide wa* lined with tree* and underhru*h—before u* *lretche.| a long vit* of overarching tree* narrowing with di*tance, while growing in the cool, shaded place* among the rock* wa* the graceful waving fern, some a bright livid green and oilier* huff or creamy white. Kverything showed ign of drought. At one place where a limped dream wa* wont to come bubbling down the mountain idc, it wa* only a dry lied of •tones, but farther on we found a little •pring, that, although not no large a* it u*ually i, *upplicd u* with a cool, refresh ing drink. Hut to the right and to the left of ii*, though *ome distance away, we aw the tmoke from fire* on tho mountain*. What a grand view we had from the top ! Slo|*s after lnpc *eemd to rie till they almost touched tho *ky—the bright pine* and evergreen* contrasted lieautifully with the yellow of the hickory and the dull color of the oak leaves. Here and there the overhanging clouds were pictured by the shadow* that rested upon the face of the mountain, bringing the sunny {pots out into brighter relief. At the top we diverged from the road into a by-road to what is familiarly known as "Wolf* hollow." Here we selected a level, shady place and spread down our blankets and buffalo robe from the wagon, the seat* of which served as comfortable sofa*, while we eagerly gathered around the large basket of tempting refreshment* and jug of sweet, rich, fresh cider that we had taken with u*. After satisfying the wants of the inner man the gentlemen of the party went in search of chertnuts, with the understanding that should they lie suc cessful, they would call us to the pleasant task of gathering them. In a little while they returned, but as others had been ahead of them they were unsuccessful. So we turned our faces homeward and were folly compensated by tho luxuriant beauty scat tered along the pathway. Tho quantities of grand pine and fern tempted us not to go home empty handed. While the trusty horses jogged leisurely along, most of u* strolled down the noun side culling boquefa of the green and creamy white ferns brightened with the glowing leave* of tho maple. When we were tired we returned te the wagon laden with what we considered treasures, but wim some of tho gentlemen denominated "woods.'' What a free, easy, gipsey life wo led that day. Dusty and hungry wo reached J homo at tea time ready to partake of the bountiful repast spread for us, fooling uro wo should long rotairi pleasant recollections of our picnic upon the Alleghenles.
