LECTURE BY RF.V. A. A. WII.I.ITS.—
Our readers will be gratified to learn that
the next lecture before the Youug Mens'
Christian Association will be delivered by
this popular orator. As a lecturer he is un
surpassed by any man in the country. The
subject on the present occasion will be
••SUNSHINE." We copy from the Boston
Post, the following in regard to the lecturer
and his subject:
"Mr. WILLITS delivered n most genial,
cheerful,buoyant,'and common sense lecture
on "Sunshine," which,before he concluded,
lie succeeded in beaming into every head
and heart within the sound of his voice.—
The term sunshine was uspd in the sense
of cheerfulness in all the affairs and condi
tions of life. The lecture was tilled with
apt illustrations and felicitous necdotes,
aud the nndience was one moment moved
to mirth, and another to conviction of the
good sense that was so profusely uttered.
The lecture was one of the best that has
been given in Boston for years, and should
be heard everywhere."
The lecture will be delivered at the Court
House, Tuesday evening, Feb. 5. The
price of tickets is fixed at 50 cents.

IfeyOn Monday last, George Brooks
of Tioga Centre, was drawing logs, and an
old man, Mr. Schoonovcr, coming the same
way with a gun in his hand, attempted to
get on to ride. In getting on, he slipped
and fell, and in falling the gnu was dis
charged, dangerously wounding Mr. Brooks
in the thigh. The wound bled profusely,
an artery having been cut. He is doing
well. Dr. Daniels of Owego, wo learn was
was called. Uwcgo Gazett'.
KILLED BY A HORSE —We learn that
on Saturday last, while Mr. Orson Payne,
residing about five miles from New Milord,
was at work iu his stable, ho was kicked
on the head by one of his horses, and lived
lint a few moments after. The horse was
newly shod aud Paya'e skull was badly
shattered by the coiks of the shoe.
HIGHWAY ROBBERY. A bold and
ciiecessful robbery was committed about
MX o'clock on Wednesday evening last, be
tween the liver bridge and Kingston, th
Hope Express Company being the suffer
ers. The agent's wagon was returning from
the depot as usual, with James Miller and
Charles Barnes as drivers, the former hav
ing served in that capacity for some time,
the latter but a few weeks. Wli n near the
p >iid they were suddenly stopped by two
men seizing the horses by the bridles, at
the same instant four others mounting the
wagon, two behind, and two climbing over
Ibe sides, each armed with revolvers, and
threatened instant death if reaistance or
outcry were given. Coming so suddenly
and unexpectedly upon th- drivers, and in
such superior numbers, little effectual re
sistance could be made, aud the vil uins
succeeded iu getting possession of the va
lise iu which money packages aud other
valuables were generally carried,after which
they left the wagon and started in different
directions from the scene o robbery. The
other property in the wagon, some of which
was quite valuable, was left untouched;
the money-bag being apparently the only
object of their visit. This was found the
- uue niglit below, cut and torn to pieces,
and its contents gone.
The express wagon was hurriedly driven
into town, and information given of what
hail transpired on the road. The agent im
mediately procured the aid of the Borough
police, and made search in different direc
tions. and at such points as was deemed
advisable at the time, but only the torn va
lise rewarded their search.
A reward of fire hundred dollars is oft'er
. d for the recovery of the money and de
tection of the thieves, and no effort will be
left unspared to hunt up the parties.
A. D. Hope, Superintendent of the Com
pany, has been here for several days,assist
ed by detectives from a distance, who are
endeavoring to work up the case. Wheth
er they have met with aDy success is not
known, or if so. it very prudently kept from
the public.
The following is the amount and descrip
tion of the property stolen, by which it will
he seen that the thieves were quite success
ful in their enterprise.
Thirteen 5-20 Bonds, of the denomination
of one thousand dollars each ; four 5-20
Bonds, of the denomination of five hundred
each, all of new issue ; one package con
taining thirty-four dollars and ten cents ;
one of twenty dollars and twenty cents ;
one of thirty-three dollars and ten cents ;
one of one hundred and fifteen dollars and
thirty-four cents : and one valued at seven
ty dollars.— Wilkes-Barr- Times.

BOY MISSING.— A young lad, aged
II years and named Benjamin F. Smith,has
beer, missing from his home at Susquehan
na Depot since the '2oth of December. It is
feftred that some evil Las befallen him, us
no tidings have been obtained of him since
the day of his disappearance. He had black
eyes and dark hair, was iressed iu a blouse
coat made of blue pilot cloth, with brass
buttons, a blue cloth cap,stout,heavy shoes
aud blue woolen stockings, and had on two
pairs of summer pauts basted together. If
any one knows aught of him, they will

"THE COLUMBIAN" was established
at Bloomsburg, by the "Bread and Butter
brigade'" to supplant the Republican. As
might have been expected, after a few
mouths of sickly existence, it gave up the
ghost, and it now comes out under its true
colors,* being edited by JOHN G. FREEZE,
Esq.. once imported into this county, to
enlighten this benighted section.
We have received a copy <>l

There is no other work published iu the
United States which gives a more complete
view of political parties and their past acts
than this little work. Its epitome of astron
omical tacts, tide tables and synopsis of acts
passed by Congress, are'very valuable.—

WILEY THE MURDERER. —WiIey, the
murderer of Alice McElwee, convicted of
murder in the first degree at the last ses
sion of our Court, was brought into Court
on Monday last, to receive his sentence.—
Judge Conygliam rea i an able and careful
ly considered decision upon the application
by Wiley's counsel for a new trial, dismiss
ing the application, after which he called
the prisoner up for sentence. Upon the
question being put whether he had any
thing to say why sentence of death should
not be pronounced, he replied that he had.
" That he did not intend to shoot her. He
thought the barrel of the revolver was not
loaded. Ti at three of the chambers were
vacant. That he had nothing against the
woman in his life." The Judge then pro
ceeded to pass tht sentence of death upon
him. which he did in the most feeling and
appropriate language.
ILe prisoner during the whole ecene,
presented an appearance of the most stoi
cal indifference, and seemed in no way im
pressed with the fearful seu'ence parsed
upon him in punishment of his crinit. He
was conducted back to await the Governor's
warrant for his execution. His counsel, we
understand, intend to carry the case to the
Supreme Court.— Luzerne Union.
Elniira has been again afflict
ed with a disastrous fire. On Tuesday night
last, fire broke ont in a building south side
of Water street, owned by Judge Dunn and
occupied by Isadore Pencher as a clothing
Store. Two buildings iu the block, Judge
Dunn's and H. 15. Locke's only were burn
ed, involving a loss of $7,000 to each—but
little insurance on cither. There were many
occupants in the buildings, who lost quite
heavily, but were generally well insured.—
The Steamers worked admirably, and ac
tually put the fire out, notwithstanding the
terribly severe weather.

LIFE INSURANCE —To THE EDITOR OK
THE N. Y. TRIBUNE.— Sir: The unprece
dented success of the Connecticut Mutual
Life Insurance Company the past year, is
worthy ot especial notice. Having issued
over 12.000 new policies—the income about
$6,000,000 —being over $lB,OOO per day—
its capital increased about $4,000,000 over
and above all losses—including also the an
nual dividend of 00 per cent. —making the
total assets now about 814,000,000. The
number of policies now in force, about 40,-
000, being the largest number of anv com
pany now in this country—all combine to
show how the public appreciate the old
Connecticut Mutual Life lusurauce Com
pany.
You will oblige us by giving the follow
ing an insertion in your truly valuable pa
per, which will answer the many misstate
ments of rival agents, and with much es
teem, we are, Yours, Ac.,

I.ETTER FROM BANKERS.
TROY, October 20, 1866.
Messrs, PECK A HILLMAN, General Agents of
Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company:
GENTLEMEN :—The undersigned, policy
holders in the Connecticut Mutual Life In
surance Company, feel that it is too late
in the day for this Comp-.ny to need any
recommendation from us. Yet, in view of
the fact that rival companies are jealous of
her unparalleled success, and are making
an effort to disparage her, we take great
pleasure in saying that the Connecticut Mu
tual has done better by us than was prom
ised. Your representations to us have been
more than realized. The non-forfeiture fea
ture adopted by your Company—the great
economy and prudence in the management
of its business—the large dividends annual
ly paid to us, and especially the 60 per cant,
dividend paid this year—also the change
made by which in the settlement of policies
at death, not even a single note comes out
of the policy—all combine to increase (if
any increase is possible) our confidence in
your Company. And we cheerfully reeoin
mend it to all desiring to get their lives in
sured. We would not change our insurance
in this for one iu any other company.
Respectfully yours,

GREAT SECRET EXPOSED !
Yielded at last to th wishes of friends. Time
and again has the following proposi ion been
made ; but never exposed until the present.
FIVE YEARS A.V VNREVEALED SE
CRET '
NKKVE YOURSELF FOR THE'SIIOCK !
First proposition to be made public :
FRIEND NELSON -.—First, I would say, ac
cording to the best calculations, in the Borcugb
ot Towanda, there is sold yearly one hundred \
thousand dollars worth ol Boots and Shoes,
mostly slop work of the most inferior kind,
and the people generally are sick of ,it. And
now 1 say to your again, as I have before, en
large your Store make it neat and commodious,
and keep a good stock ol Boot and shoes, and
you shall be sustained. Most ol the people be
gin to feel a little above huyiug their boots and
shoes at Dry Goods Stores ; it looks verdant
and outlandish. ■> e (lu not ask to make y-ur
goods it it is not convenient The facilities in
some other localities, where a better ch ice of
sto tk and woikmen can be bad, may be still bet
ter And you have always been in th business
and better understand tbis one point and im
p utant branch of the Merchant's art, than
those that deal in Silks and Muslins, aud they. I
believe, would be glad to let tbis business go
where it belongs ; that they have done it hereto
fore to accomodate the people ; I do believe if
you would open a firs -class Shoe Store the
people would uoijgo t<> Dry Gods Stores to buy
.■shoes any more than they would to Drug Stores
for Gats.
Stop, stop,! what are yon talking about ? has
not any one the right to sell what he pleases ? it
may be, bnnot injustice is it right its so large a
place as this, where practical then are engaged
wholly in this business. It has tieen given up
in every other place, and according to custom
it will be here.
Two thousand five hundred propositions I
madetrom customers, is, to bring more ot the
same kind ol Boots and Shoes you brought with
you when you came in town seven years ago. i j
have neve seen a good Shoe betore uor since, i
the language o them all at the same time. !
Raise thy leet geutly
And think it so queer
That the Boots 1 sold then
Should wear them a year.
1 now yield to the above propositions, and have
promised to sell Twenty-live Thousand Dollars
worth ot his Boots and Shoes it he would make
them as good as those 1 trough' here seven
years ago. aud the answer is 1 will 1 I will!
Well triends, your proposition made
And I've consented to the trade,
so I will sell yon Shoes both strong and neat,
To plea.-e the taste and suit the feet.
I have Ladies, 1 Misses'. Boys' aud Mens'.J
From fancy down to coarse brogaus,
Come one and all. do as you agree,
Aud buy your Boots and Shoes of me.
Come! Come! I say, where you can find \
Boots exactly to y rur mind ;
A d if you was never here before,
You'll find it is the very Store.
