es of the different denominations in Towanda, as an ac
knowledgement of their cordiality and heaity good will,
manifested towards the Conference in many ways. The
presentation of the certificate to Rev. B. J. DOCULASS,
Pastor of the Episcopal Church, at Towanda, was made
In open Cohlerence, accompanied with a short and excel
lent address, which was responded tn by Rev. Mr. DOCO
LASS in a very beautiful and feeling speech. At the con.
elusion o{ his remarks the Conference sang the hymn com
mencing—
Together let ns sweetly live,
Together let us die ;
A nd each a starry crown receive,
And reign above'the sky.
Mr. DOUGLASS had been very cordial and hearty in his
intercourse with the members of the Conference through
out the entire session, contributing liberally to the sever
eral contributions for benevolent objects and entertain
ing a number of Methodist ministers at his own house."
p&r MR. GOODRICH : You have probably
been informed that an effort was being made in western
Bradford, to enlist a Cavalry Company, for the war, to
be attached to Col. HARLAN'S Regiment. You and the
public w ill he glad to know that the effort has been suc
cessful, and that the Company, one huudrtd and licenty
tij-fve strong, departed from Troy, to join the Regiment,
on Monday, the 26th inst. The friends of the Union, in
this vicinity, have felt, and will continue to feel, a deep
interest in this company. There was a great crowd as
sembled to see them depart, and bid them GoD-speed on
their mission of stem and purlieus duty. And well may
v e feel proud of this Company, for no better one has pre
ceded it to the battle-field, and no better men are left be
hind than a majority of its members.
The following are the officers elected by the Company :
Captain —N. E. CALKINS.
Ist Lieut. — B. B. Mitchell,
2 44 D.C. Tears,
Orderly Serg't —Victor A. Elliott,
2 d '• " Phillip A. Palmer,
Sergeants in order —D. W. Crandall, H. E. Wheeler,
Chauncy Ackley, Morris Cummins.
Corporals, in order —Wm. M. Hampton, W. C. Lamb,
Nelson M. Davenport, Ritner Wicks, C. D. Robinsou, Al
ien Perry, Orrin VVard.N. P. Aspinwall.
Farrier —Simeon MYlwain,
Buglers —B. B. Borden, Ceo. W. Tooker.
It'rgonti —S. W. Phillips,
Blacksmith —H. P. Whiteman,
Saddler —S. K. Gaskill.
Capt. Collins deserves great credit for the energy and
persevervance displayed in must* ring this company.—
From the commencement of the war, he has been anxious
to take part with such a regiment in defence of the Gov
ernment, but cavalry seemed to he out of fashion in our
army, and he could get no chance. At last he applied to
Col. Hakan, and was informed ilia' if he would raise a
company of nintyfive men by the 25th of August, lliey
would be accepted. Although this gave the Captain on
ly some fi teen days notice, he went to work with a will
zealously assisted by Lieuts. B. B. Mitchell and D. O-
Tears. On the 21th they called their men together and
found they had enough, and some for contingencies. On
that day the men were sworn into the service, and pro
ceeded to elect their officers, with the result above stat
ed.
On Monday, the 26th inst., they left ns.aniid the shouts
and huzzas of their numerous frieuds, and the waving of
handkerchiefs by many fair hands—with the good wishes
of all wh a love the Union, which they have sworn to de
fend, and with many earnest prayers for their s fe return.
At Alba and Canton, a similar greeting awaited them
when the truid arrived, and at Ralston the " loud mouth
ed" cannon gave them cheering welcome.
So, from their friends, and these peaceful scences,
they have passed from among us, to meet traitor enemies
in the " tented field,"
" And cut through traitor hearts a track,
To nobler fame and freedom back?"

EMERY'S NEW PATENT
THRESHER AND CLEANER
This a new Machine, and has not before been intro
duced into this region. It has no endless chain straw

; Celled Apron, a new Improved Revolving Picker, and
the well known Vibrating Riddle, it is a simple, durable
and efficient Machine, will thresh rapidly and clean thor
j oughly, without wasting, all kinds of grain. It will not
I choke, run easily and steadily, without jumping, and is
warranted to he superior to the common Rake Cleaner
