SMITHBORO BRIDGE BLOWN DOWN. —The
Smithboro bridge owned by Gilbert Peareall, Esq.,
of Hooper's Valley had four spans carried off by
the big freshet last spring to the great inconven
-1 ienee of the neighborhood. Mr. Peursull has been
1 engaged in rebuilding that which had been carried
off, and had it on Friday week nearly finished
when a gale of wind from the west struck it and
blew down the same spans into the river. The
■ loss to Mr. Pearsull will be about $6,000 besides
the tolls since it fell, and those which would have
been collected if the bridge had remained. It Mull
be difficult to rebuild this fall Many of the prin
cipal long timbers have beeu broken by the fall
twice in two.— Owejo Times.
CAVE DISCOVERED IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY.—
Some excitement was occasioned last week in the
Trappe, Montgomery county, by the discovery of
a cave near the old Trappe Church. Some boys
were playing among the bushes, when one of them
fell, and his leg slipped in the aperture of a cave,
and after examination it was found that down
about nine feet, there was a room some seven feet
square, with the floor carpeted, a fire place, cook
ing utansils and a ladder, by which the inhabi
tants whoever they may be, gained egress to the
outer world. There were meat bones and unmis
takable signs of domestic life, yet no one can ex
plain the mystery. The cave is said to be a re
ality, but who fashioned it, who occupies it, or
how long it has been there, no one knows.
IONA AND ISRAEI.LA GRAPE VINES.—I will
in a very few days, receive a limited supply of Dr.
Grant's celebrated seedling Grape vines, the lona
and Israel la: also a few choice Delaware, Dianas
and Allen Hybrids. I have a supply of nice one
year old Concord and Creveling vines for sale
cheap. People who want to secure choice vines
for this Fall or next Spring's planting should ap
ply at once. R. M. WELLES.
Bradford County Teacher's Associa

NOTICE.—A meeting of the Towanda'
Tract Society will be held at the house of Mr. B.
S. Russell, North Towanda, on next Saturday !
i evening at 7 o'clock. Punctual attendance is re- i
quested.
It is now said to be a fixed fact that
we are to have a Railroad to Waverly. This is :
cheering news to our business men, and in fact to i
our whole community. Already we begin to hear j
inquiries for places to open some new business in ;
We know of no establishment more needed than a j
good Boarding House, and if one is not soon es- |
tablisbed, we cannot tell what people will do. To i
j any one wishing to engage in the business a rare i
opportunity is now offered, and we guarantee that j
fifty good paying borders can be secured in less
than ten days. See advertisement in another col
umn.
Our citizens will be pleased to learn
that the Y. M. C. A., are about getting up a course
of Lectures here the present season. We presume j
the Association w ill hot be able to secure many of
the distinguished Lecturers of the day, yet they i
expect two or three of the best ones (luring the j
course. Miss ANNIE E. DICKINSON has promised j
to be here, and Prof. M. P. GADDIK of Cincinuatti, j
has also been engaged for two lectures to come off
the fore part of December. We sincerely hope the j
Y. M. C. A., may meet with the success they de- i
serve iu this undertaking. There is no reason j
why Towanda should be behind other towns in Lit- j
erary matters, and we feel persuaded that our cit- :
izens will appreciate the opportunity offered of en- j
joying these intellectual feasts.
