on the text, "I have not shunned to declare

conclusion, when the-beloved and faithful pas
tor came to say farewell to those among whom
he lets ministered so acceptably for the past
three years; many eyes were dimmed with tears,
and the speaker found it difficult to prononnce
the parting word:

large a Republican Majority as any town hi the
county, and the following facts may accountfor
this somewhat We have not got I grog-ahop

and commodious houses for public worship and
Sabbath-schools, with nine public !school-haute.
So it is very seldom that anything happens in
our midst that would be worth publishing. But
perhaps a short account of last Fridarscilood
- would not be entirely uninteresting. It cam
mencod raining about 9 o'clock in the' evening,
and before 12 o'clock (midnight) the waters had
spent their fury, and passed away. The dam
age was all done by the small streams which
flow into the main crook from the north, the
one running through the centre doing the
prin
cipal damage. This stream branches a little
north of the centre, each'branch coming down
a narrow dale. Up the left hand one is the
principal road leading from Granville Centro to
Troy, which is now entirely destroyed for sixty
or eighty rods, togothertwifh nine bridges. A
shop belonging to B. F. TAYLOR was carried
down the stream several rods and lodged in
front of H. H. HEALD'S harness shop. Mr. Tar-
Loa's dwelling-hone was badly injured - By logs,
stumps, and other fiats:A-trash, coming against
it. The pillars on the stoop were all torn 'mete;
and some of them carried away. His house is
almost hemmed in with the general debris' . A
beautiful young orchard near his bonne, con
taining various kinds of fruit,sis nearly destroy
ed. Mr. Tart.on's loss is quite hoary and falls
severely upon him, as he has been confined to
his bed by sickness ever since early last spring.
C. S. Bony had part of his house swept off and
destroyed, together with most of his household
furniture and clothing, some dried fruit and
other eatables, twenty-two dollars in money, s
good salver watch, Ac.,
.&c. His garden near
his house is entirely destroyed—his chickens
and other poultry washed away. It. Haonelost
some bees. H. ARNOLD'S wood-shed was car
ried off and destroyed, and his lot badly wash
ed. 'V. Bates's garden nearly spoiled. J.
BEAcu's wagon shop badly damaged, his cellar
filled with stone and gravel. and several thou
sand feet of hard-m;od lumber carried off. L.
D. Tivion, Levi TssoLoil, and ORLANDO TAT

debris. Much damage was dune in other por-

tions of-the town.l....,cural firmors flying on
the hills had their Wheat-fields badly injured;
and taking it all together, it was one of the moat
terrific floods that ever visited this part of the
county. The amount of damage to the public
and individual within one mile of the Centre,
is estimated at from 12,000 to $5.000.

Rept. 20, 1809.
MONBOETON.—FRIEND ALVOgn: Our
place is perhaps known to most of yonr read
ers. But it may not be uninteresting to some
of them to know more. Monroe Towoship was
laid out some 45 years ago, I believe, by Goa-
DON F. Maws, thou a resident of thisplace and
County litirveyor. Fore good many years the
principal liminess was lumbering, which was
carried on quite ostensively, especially along
the creeks. liouroeton is a small village of
about 300 inhab.mots, located on the Towanda
Creek four miles s•mthwest of Towanda, where
the old Borwi.•k I",trupike crosses the stream,
and was built mist:) . by lumbermen.
Twenty years s:;,, thiwe was a lively lmsinass,
done here, and our streets were daily lined with
teams loaded with irairds and shingles, which
they would excik•nge for dry-goods, groceries
awl rum, theiat:e.• being used quite freely to
draw custom, eaitsing a great deal of drinking
and drunkenness ni our midst—so much so that
Rev. N. W. Atom:. a Methodist minister, who
felt very much intereated in the welfare -of the
people here, it being his native place, gave us
an excellent address on turup.rance, setting
forth the evil effects of drinking, and- showing
the condition of the inside of a man's stomach
that drank, and wound -up by urging us as Wa
rden& to live temperance lives. But, notwith
standing, drinking has been kept up more or
less to this day, and many are reaping the re
ward that the Elder told them was kid up for
such.
Wo have here three churches—one Presby
terian, one Methodist, and one Baptist. Preach
ing every Sabbath morning in the two first. Al•
so a good school taught by Rev. H. Auxsruoso,
the Presbyterian minister, whore all the branch
es are taught that are taught in any school in
the county. We also have two dry-good stores,
three groceries, so hotels, one foundry and
machine shop, tux grain and plaster mill, two
wagon shops and tow blacksmith shops, all, or
most all, doing a ge e d business, for this place;
and would do still better, were it not for a few
dead-heads hero tiaiT a Id $lO to every quarter
acre of land every time they have a chance to
sell, thus keepmg it out of the reach of those'
that otherwise would buy and build. It would
be much better for the place if such would get
rid of what little thuy l have here, and give piece
to good business men that would throw open
streets, stake out lots, and say--" Here, pay me
a fair price for these lot s and
,you can have
them ". ; in which card we would soon see our
town growing finely. The Barclay Railroad
passes through the place, and the Sullivan
Erie intersects it here, and is now nearing com
pletion fast,affording opportunity, to ship and
receive freight bore daily if We wish, thus oak:
ing it u good a place for business as can be
'found in the county.
ROCKWELL has got his mill completed,
and has leased it for five years to Mr. Foams,
one of the best of millers, who will be glad to
see his old customers at any time. He has a
first-class mill now, and will give you first-class
work. ' Buis.

tug your paper I find local items from different
parts of the county, some telling of oats, and
others of briars, Ae.; and as I see no one men

thought I would write a few lines from here.
In your issue of Sept. 9, a correspondent from
Athens says that he had oat-stalks six feet 'fear
inches in length. In fear that the gentlemen
had an "at to grind," I would toll thein through

indite • few remarks for Wells, PI., one of the
northern tier towns. We have in our tan no
villages of very great importance, French Mills
being the principal place of trade and the cod
'sleeting inint of three roads leading from the
upper country. But more of this locality in fu
ture: Our tan claims to bo the finest dairy
and produce region in all Bradibrd county.
Many of our people are from Nei Jersey, the
land of rock* and sand, and bringing with them
the thrift and economy of a nearly sterile re
gion, form the representative portion of one
farming community. We have to claim to po
litical supremacy in Wells, . being encumbered
with a political carcass of about 30 majority
democratic. Although being gridtrally reduced,
the animal dies hard and votes early and often.
The present season has given our farmers a
liberal store of bay and fain. Occasional show
ers have kept thick and sweet a bounteous sup
ply of grass for gazing stock, and a fine amount
of butter has been made, worth at present in
Elmira (Our principal market) abont 40 cents.
Wheat crop good, oats unusually heavy, corn
and buckwheat light.
We again return to the subject of politics, to
inquire which of the two gubernatorial candi
dates, now clainihig the chair of State, shall be
the choice of oar noble Commonwealth—the
war veteran, honest and true, who helped' to
guide our armies to victory, and haw since con
trolled our State with impartial wisdom and
placed her under unparalleled prosperity, or
the man who knew nothing of the dangers and
responsibilities of en unprovekeil onslanglit np•
on the liberties of our trnion—a man relying
upon the strength of moneyed power—n trendy
too potent t in, swaying our .republion fabric—
asking that' the suffrage, of an intelligent, lib.
erly-loving people place him for mire posei
wealth, our executive in the stead of General
GEAR; a noble patriot anti wise statesman?
Our choice. Jo COMING&
