FIRE AT ST. STEPHEN'S CHURCH.—ON
Sunday afternoon last, about four o'clock,
there was an alarm of fire from the Episco
pal Church in this town. The fire had origi
nated where a hot air pipe passed through
the woodwork of a wall, and had evidently
been burning for some time between the
tioor and ceiling nnder the chancel. In a
li w minutes more the Sabbath school would
h..vu been dismissed from the room below,
an.l he church closed without any discov
ery : but just then the fire reached the dry
greens ornamenting the room Above, and
the crackling sound of their burning was
heard in time.
Fears hail Leon expressed that some of
those ( liristmas greens hail been placed too
near the gas lights for safety ; and it seems
now really singular that their taking fire so
soon on this occasion, and burning so fu
riously, in truth gave the timely alarm that
reallv saved the church from destruction.
the fire was .speedily extinguished with
out serious damage.
Yesterday morning the dwelling house of
V W. Hillman, on Franklin street, caught
fire from the chimney, but was discovered
in time to extinguish it before much damage
Las been done. tVilLes-Bnrre Times.
WILD CAT KILLED. —Mr. Win. White
ly. of Ellclands, killed a large wild cafin
his barn, recently, with a pitch-fork. Our
informant states that Mr. Whitley had a
pretty warm "scrimage" with the "varmint"
before he despatched him. - Sullivan Free

FIKF. IN MAINBBURG.--The Maine
Homestead dwelling in Mainsburg was burn
ed to the ground last Wednesday night.—
The tire was so rapid that nothing was saved
from the building in the way of furniture
and clothing. In fact, the inmates escaped
with their night clothes, and one child was
only snatched from the bed in time to save
its life.— Weilsboro A'fdalor.
FIRE IN MIDDLEQURV.—We learn that
the Flax Mill of our friend Geo. P. Card,
Esq., situated between Potter's and Keen
eyville, was destroyed by tire Saturday night.
We have no news of the cause of the fire,nor
of the loss. Insured for SII,OOO.
These are warnings to every householder.
Look Well to your stove-pipes and chim
neys. Weilsboro Agitator.
BOILER EXPLOSION.— On Thursday
morning of last week, the boiler of the
Steam Saw Mill of Messrs. Wells, Lawrence
A Co., in the Town of Conklin, blew up, se
verely injuring two of the employees, one
of whom has since died, and slightly injur
. 1 Mr. Lawrence and Mr. Whitney. The
cause of the explosion cannot be accounted
lor. as we learn that the boiler and engine
were new and in good order. Those hurt
re recovering from the effects of their in
juries as will as can be expected.—Biog

EDITOR BRADFORD REPORTER.—I pro
post to show to the citizens of our llorough
and of the county, east of the river, how
their interests will be affected in case the
I'ilroad crosses the river above the To-
;nda Bridge.
The channel of the river at the contem
plated point of crossing it about a mile
mile above the Towanda Bridge, is very
narrow ami consequently the piers of the
railroad bridge would make it still nar
rower, whether it crosses diagonally or at
right angles, and the water at that point be
ing deep, and the river bottom soft and
inudly, each pier would have to be rip rap
ped, which would add still more to the ob
structions in the channel, which being
hemmed in above by Ligh banks, it would
obstruct the flow of ice : gorge it up to a
hcighth far above the bridge ; spread over
the railroad track on the west side and the
narrows road on the east side of the river :
and thus temporarily stop the transit on
both those roads, anil require several days,
il VA wicks to remove the ice and repair
the roads, it no further damage should be
incurred.
Again. The chances are that the gorged
•e would carry oft' the superstructure of
th' Uailro&d Bridge, which would on its
way down lodge against the Towanda Bridge
and either carry it oft' or cause a new gorge
■i increased magnitude, and by damming up
: water, lorce it round the ends of the
limbic obstruction ; and the ground, below
lut towanda Bridge being low and alluvial,
tin water would cut round the Bridge, as it
1 round the dam and the bridge before,
■DEI arry off the lower part of the town.
But suppose the shock caused by it should
■ rry off the superstructure of the Towan
da Bridge and both bridges should lodge
■a! the breast of the dam, then the chances
'•'■""ld be that if they should not cany off
dam, the water and the accumulated
Do would rush round the ends of it and
carry oft part of the canal on one side and
part of the town ou the other ; aad thus
the houses of our inhabitants would be- 1
com.' their coffins, and the freshet tlieir
graves.
HOW IT WILL AFFECT THE INHABITANTS OF i
SHESHEQt'IN.
To illustrate the effect of the Railroad
Bridge passing over the narrows road, as is j
contemplated, I have only to refer to the 1
fact that a short time ago, as the Canton j
! stage was passing under the Barclay Rail
road, above Monroeton, while the cars
wt r< passing over it, the stage horses took |
, fright, ran off, overturned the stage, nearly
| killed the driver, who was an experienced
l one, and seriously injured Mr. Mnnday, j
who was the only passenger in it. In this
j case the railroad after crossing the stage !
i road, diverges from it, nearly at right angles; I
j But in the case of this bridge, after cross- |
j ing the narrows' road turns round at an j
acute angle and then runs parallel with and !
; close to the narrows' road for a long dis- !
; tance, and as horses, when frightened by j
the cars, invariably run from them, the j
chances would be that if persons in wheel j
conveyances should escape from being
thrown out and injured or killed on land, !
they would run the greater risk of being
run into the river and drowned.
HOW IT WOULD AFFECT THE INHABITANTS OF j
WYSOX AND OTHER EASTERN TOWNSHIPS.
The inhabitants of those townships, in ]
coming to Towanda, would have to cross j
the railroad track near the outlet lock, at
the end of the dam, and pass along the ;
narrows close to and between the railroad J
and the dam for some distance before reach- j
ing the Towanda Bridge, and where the
railroad would cross the common road, the
curve would be so short that the hill would
intervene and hide the cars from their view j
and hence they would run the risk of being !
thrown out of their vehicles and killed or
being run into the river and drowned.
HOW IT WOULD AFFECT THE INHABITANTS OF |
TOWANDA AND THE TOW ANDA BRIDoE CO. j
Owing to the risks the people east ot the j
river would Lave to encounter, in coming
to Towanda, it would prevent many of them I
from coming at all; and they would seek j
some other and less dangerous points at >
which to do their trading. But those hav
ing business in the public offices and suit- i
ors, witnesses, constables, judges and jur- |
ors would have to attend court regardless
of those risks. Many would cross the river
by fording or ferrying at different points |
above and below the Towanda Bridge,
where they would only incur a single risk
of crossing the track at right angles, and
where they could see the cars for a great :
distance on both sides of them, and have
time to avoid the danger of contact with
them.
As there will necessarily be a track or
switch to connect with the depot of the
Barclay and Dushore railroads, the inhabi
tants of the Borough would have to suffer
all the risks and inconveniences of the cars
passing up and down through the Borough
and be deprived of most of the custom from
the east side of the river, which now con
tributes so largely to its prosperity, with no
corresponding equivalent to compensate for ;
the loss ; and the owners of the Bridge will
be no less seriously affected by this diver
sion of trade from the Borough ; and the j
question may arise whether the railroad
company may not be amenable to them for ;
heavy Damages.
It is said that corporations have no souls 1
nd are governed solely by self-interest, re
gardless of the interests of others, while
this may be true in many cases, I am far
from thinking it is universal, and so far as
Judge Packer is concerned, who I under- j
stand is most largely interested in the ltuil
road, I know him to be a gentleman of en- '
larged philanthropy and of unselfish public
spirit, and who I am very sure is incapable ;
of intentionally doing any thing however
much it might advance his pecuniary inter
ests, that would destroy the interests and
endanger the lives of the inhabitants of our '
flourishing town, in its present advancing
prospects of wealth and prosperity : and I ,
think I may, from a long acquaintance with
our neighbor Col. Welles, say the same I
thing of him.
Again. By crossing the river below the
dam, the railroad bridge would be secure i
against damage from ice freshets, save the i
very expensive construction of a mile of
rail-road on the east side of the river and j
coming a mile down from the bridge to the i
borough and then back again, being an in
crease of a mile in the general distance of ,
the road, which would more than counter- :
balance the distance saved by cutting
across the Wysox Flats and avoiding the ;
towing path of the canal. By crossing be- |
low the dam and following the towing path, ;
the company would avoid the payment of '
heavy damages for crossing the farms of .
Mr. Lulling and others.
If, however, i), must cross above the i
bridge, the point for crossing which would
be the least damage to all parties interested,
would be at some point near the Court j
House and then strike the causeway of the
Towanda Bridge, and leaving sufficient
room between it and the narrows' road for
the canal, and down to the outlet lock at
the end of the dam, and from thence either
follow the canal or cut across the flats, as
might be deemed best for the company aud
the public.
I have only to add in conclusion, that j
rather than the railroad should cross the j
river at the point, it would be far better for
our citizens that it should never be built.

A visit to the marble works of
GEO. MCCABE, in this borough, will amply
repay for the time spent. Mr. MCCABE is
now engaged in preparing two monuments, ;
which are a credit to the taste and skill of his
workmen, and prove that it is not necessary
to go abroad to secure first-class work. One
is a testimonial of the high regard in which
Lieut.-Col. GUY H. WATKINS was held by '
his personal friends, and is to be erected !
as a memorial of their affection and esteem.
The shaft is a fluted column upon which is
a sabre crowned with laurel leaves, and it j
w ill be an appropriate memento to mark j
the Inst resting place of a gallant soldier |
and a worthy man.
The other is to be placed over the grave !
of Gen. CASE, late of Troy, one of the old
est and most respected citizens of the conn- ;
ty. The workmanship of these monuments ,
will compare favorably with any we have
ever seen.

GREAT SECRET EXPOSED !|
Yielded at last to th • wishes oi friends. Time j
and again has the following proposition been j
made ; bnt never exposed until the present.
FIVE YEARS AS UNREPEALED SE
CRET •
NERVE YOURSELF FOR THE'sHOCK !
First proposition to be made pubiic :
FRIEND NELSON First, I would say, ac
cording to the best calculations, in the* Borough
ot Towanda, there is sold yearly one hundred j
thousand dollars worth ot Boots and Shoes, !
mostly slop work of the most inferior kind, j
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 of Boots and Shoes, and j
you shall be sustained. Most of the people be- !
gin to feel a little above buying their boots and
shoes at Dry Goods Stores ; it looks verdant |
and outlandish. iVe do not ask to make your 1
goods it it is not convenient. The facilities iu i
some other localities, where a better choice of
stock and workmen can be had, may be still bet
ter And you have always been in the business
and better understand this one point and im
portant branch of the Merchant's art, than
those that deal in Silks and Muslins, and they, I
believe, would be glad to let this business go j
where it belongs ; that they have done it hereto- '
fore to accomodate the people ; I do believe it
yon would open a first-class Shoe Store the
people would not.go to Dry Goods Stores to buy
Shoes,any more than they would to Drug Stores
for Oats.
Stop, stop,! what arejyou talking about ? has
not anyone the right .to sell what he pleases? It
may be, bunot iu justice is it right in so large a
place as this, where practical men are engaged
wholly iu this business. It has been given up
in every other place, and according to custom
it will be here.
Two thousand live hundred propositions
madetroin customers, is, to bring more ot the
. same kind ot Boots and Shoes you brought with
j you when you came in town seven years ago. I
; have neve seen a good Shoe before nor since, is i
the language oi them all at the same time.
Raise thy feet gently
And think it so queer
That the Boots I sold then
Should wear them a year.
I now yield to the above propositions, and have
promised to sell Twenty-five Thousand Dollars
worth ol his Boots and Shoes if he would make
them as good as those 1 brought here seven
years ago. and the answer is I will ! I will !
Well (fiends, your proposition made
And I've consented to the trade.
So I will sell yon Shoes both strong aud neat,
To please the taste aud suit the l'eet.
i have Ladies,' Misses', Boys' and Mens'.|
From lancy down to coarse brogaus.
S Come one and all, do as yon agree,
j And buy your Boots and Shoes of me.
i Come! Come! I say, where you can find
Boots exactly to y jar mind ;
i A dif you was never here before,
You'll find it is the very Store.
Come Ladies, Gents, 1 have goods lor all.
Buy your goods of me this Fall,
And when Spring comes I will the cry,"
" At L. C. NELSON'S I will buy!'
1 There is one thing more I'll say to yon,
I'm in the old Store made over new ;
j If any read, and stand the sho k,
I My place you'll find joins Patton's Block.
