We have not heard from him in some time. lam sorry thet!" 7 .lon.". has failed to write for your valuable Fiver. It is necessary that some one should keep you post ed on what is transpiring in this remote part of the county. I will try and inform you to the best of my ability. Mr. JAY= I. OSGOOD has resigned his office of postmaster at this place in favor of C. L. Butmunn. CHARLET is as good a Republican as we have in town. He has received his ap pointiueut. The name of the office has been changed from French Mills to Wells, and the name of the village from Mosherville to Wells ville, a good charigc. We are to have a church here. It is to be a Union Church, open to all denominations, and is to be controlled by trustees elected from the different denominations worshiping there.— There has been a church at the State Line; two miles from here, owned by the Presbyterian society—a very good building, and has been used for the last few yearn but little for holding divine service, and is of but little use where it stands. The society that it belonged to is most ly gone; some are dead, some have moved away, and some have gone to other churches, and those that remain have kindly consented to let the church be removed to this place. The job of moving has been let, and is to be com menced next Monday. We have had no place to hold meetingi or attend funerals for the last century, but the old red school-house that "JOE Cesium - Gs" said was built of the iumber that was taken from Noah's ark. We have some . prospect of getting a new school-house in the spring. So you see old things are to be done away with and some things are to be.-oine new. No more at present. Yours truly, Dee. 1. 1869. OevAszoNxi- ALVORD : What has happened to your correspondents from our neighborhood? As the Celt would say, ".We hear nothing but silence from them now." Where are they all? We can only conjecture. "PiArrits" may have been washed away by an other "shower"; " l'Anom" has probably lost himself in historic researches; and " LIDEPEN DENT VOTER" (a very Jupiter Tonsils), satisfied with having scattered the thunderbolts of truth in hostile ranks, has undoubtedly retired to private life. I'll not believe that his contnbu lion to your columns was a jetrenile pegform ance, nor is this the performance of a. young man. We are obliged, however, to the illustrious Boman trio fur having introduced us to the Bradford county world. It gratifies our local pride, and gives us weekly food for thought and talk. Please engage a good steady correspon dent with right principles, plenty of brain, a goodly supply of adjectives, and wisdom to use them aright on all important occasions. Your recent correspondents have thus far proved themselves jerky, occasional, " few and far be tween" scribblers. Tu make up in some mea sure for these omissions, I will try to itemize a little. As we have bad neither deluge, nor earthquake, nor election, this communication may not have an absorbing interest. The citizens of Rcime are to have a Donation for the benefit of the Rev. Dr. Com., on flaws day'eve the 16th, at Mrs. Et.uores house in the borough. As this old servant of the Lord deservedly wins hosts of friends wherever he moves, it is reasonable to expect a crowded house on the occasion. Mr. FRANK . VC/TWIT has opened a select school in the Academy. The citizens arc well pleased with him as a teacher. The township school-house is nearly finished. More about this. Onr music-loving friends aro having a treat this winter.• Two singing -schools are in suc cessful operation--one by Mr. LEvi TOWNER in the Baptist church, and the other by Mr. 0. W. YOUNG in the Presbyterian church. We are glad to know that the improving and refining effects of music are to have a good chance among us. Without detracting in the slightest degree from the merits of Mr. TOWNER, we Would take this pleasing opportunity of expressing our cordial appreciation of Mr. Touico as a man and teach er. By his urbanity, thoroughly scientific know"- ledge of music and Skill in imparting that Iniow ledge to others, ho has commanded success wherever be has taught. Long may he wave! In our walks about the borough we are pleased to notice the general signs of growth and im provement.. Time was when any old shell would serve as a dwelling place. No attention was paid to appearances. Now there is a brushing up; pantry-trimming, adorning, embellishing process going on, which proves that the taste of the citizen, is increasing. Perhaps the cause or all this is that so many of them subscribe for the REPORTER. I trust that the people will not forget public improvements, while attending to the interests of their private domains. Let them plant trees on the outside of the sidewalks, that the 'MEW road , may be agreeably. shaded in summer. Let them turn out and make a general improvement of the cemetery at the upper wad' of the bor ough by Judiciously planting trees (chiefly pine, cedar or hemlock). It is now a bats, bletk spot in winter—a glaring, scorched-up place in Bummer. What a noble grove theyi have at the" Wyalusing cemetery. A protracted union meeting has been going on for a short time at the Baptist church, con ducted chiefly by Elder Branovous.

SUNDAY-SCHOOLS, AND SUNDAY-SCHOOL Ism - mu is Mt:isnot-rim—Mr. Editor: As something has been said through your columns with regard to the S.S. interests of 3lonmeton, if you will allow me a little space, I will endea vor to do justice to all the parties concerned in what I may say. The Synday-school iii Mon roetont has been conducted for soulasears past under the title of "Union." A few weeks since the Methodists undertook the orgiul4ation of a Methodist Sunday-school. Brothel' 1100.urr being Superintendent of the Union Sunday school, and a Methodist, offered his resignation. It was urged that such an event would divide the feelings of the people, and would be discs trims to the prosperity of the Sunday-school in terests of the place. The supposed effect was summed up like this: "«e will bring up our children little bigoted Methodists, and little bigoted Presbyterians. - But in the lace of such discouraging prophesy, our Methodist friends minted out their plan, and organized a 'Metho dist Snuday-school. The result has been glo riods. Both schools are prosperous and doing well. As a consequence of the latent energies awakened and called into action by the division, .' I can safely say that nearly as many again chil dren are now under the intluelice of Sunday school instruction as before. My experience Las been that Union Sunday-schools are such in name only. There arc party interests which will always destroy a Union Sunday-school if it is one de facto. So long as there is a demand for separate.church organizations, there will be a demand for denominational Sunday:schools. The Stkollay-school tithe hope and germ of the future church. It is the garden where these tender plants aro to be cultivated, and from which they are to be transplanted into the church. Wherever titer . ° is a distinct organiza tion.rwith a separate church, and a separate pastor, there should be a separate Sunday school. It is the imperative duty of Methodists to train their children under their own vine, and to nourish them with their own - doctrines. The same is true of the Presbyterians. It has been a mooted question whether doctrines should be taught in the Sunday-school. If we teach truth we must teach doctrine.: The truth that Christ died for the ungodly is a doctrine, and who would not insist upon that doctrine in the Sunday-school: If any doctrine is Worth believing, it is worth teaching to the children. This is true of the doctrine, that from all eter nity sonic were elected to he saved and sumo to be lost. If the Presbyterians think this to be a Bible doctrine, and worthy a place in their creed, in God's name teach it—yes, leach n— and insist upon it in the. Sunday-school. Gen. Gatisr said "the best way to get rid of a bad law was to enforce it :" HO I think the more this doctrine was insisted ou in the Sunday-school. the worse it would he for thi, doctrine. I thought of giving you a brief summary of our Bradford comity Sunday-school Institute, lately held in Mouroeton. I will nut burthen yon with dates !and particulars. Rev. C. W. BEN NETT, of Towanda, was the conductor. He impressed all with his superior skill and adapta tion for this work. The opening address, "The Stmday-school the hope of the Church," was ably and forcibly handled by our worthy con ductor. Following the address, shurt speeches wore made by Revs. WEAVER and Howe. Thor ough and systematic preparation by the teach er was insisted upon. The children's meeting was addressed by Revs. BEN Err and Hoes. Rev. Howe gave an interesting illustration of the use of the blackboard in the Sunday-school The singing wai conducted by Rev. TRANHIIE it was soul-inspiring and well rendered. An in teresting feature of the Institute was tlu; pro 7 sentatien of written questions upon any subject connected with Sunday-school work. The ques tions were ably answered h 1 the conductor. Tho attendance throughout the Institute was good. The united expression of all was, A MUSD BMUS& Let Sunday-school Institutes be multiplied. Lot the next one to be held at Ulster be largely attended. Let all the teachers - in the sub-dis trict come, and we will guarantee that they will be well rewarded for any sacrifice they may make to do.so. REV. T. LEEIZE.WEAVEE. .1,41-0, has been maintained ever since that old fogy, King James the First, of England,interdicted the use of tobacco, that that much-loved and much-abused article is a luxury. NV° now think, however (revenue men to the contrary notwithstanding), that that dog ma is exploded. The plant has boon cultivated for the last half century so extensively through- out, we may say, our whole country, and we are so familiarly associated with it in the field, fac tory, and in fact everywhere—and so addicted to the use of it have both old and young be come, that it has entered completely into the family use, and hence become a family necessi ty. If anyithing xere needed to convince ono ofithis fact, let him observe the daily rush of the people at Eitstows's Storolo secure their al lowanos of Chewing Tobacco and those pure Havana La Espanola cigars.
