Why, after nearly 80 years familiarity, every ride still twinge to my view vistas of rare beau ty, well worthy of long travel to beheld. Doubt less the trains on the railway next season will bring tourists from far to feast upon scenes which we seem too stolid ourselves to admire. Perhaps a few,such descriptive letters may wake up the unts to enter upon this. "virgin field." For excePtingone oilpainting of "-Wye- lusing," in possession of Col. C. F.

If no others have time or taste, do let the school-teachers throughout our comi ty open their estlietical eyes, and give th 4 RE swarm pictures of the beautifuL And that re minds me of a recent visit with A. A. Simscr, Superintendent of the Bradford public schools. Ho has daring two past months traveled proba bly 300 Miles, to and fro through the county, has held 34 teachers' examinations, at which 148 males and 389 females presented themselves, and he has issued 484 provisional and 7 profes sional certificates. Of these 537 pedagogic candidates, 153 bad never taught. To these items, allow - me Uri add what the Superintendent's modesty would withhold. From my own obishrvations -at two examinations, and from reliable persons else where, I am free to Say that, for fairness, thor oughness, and fir presentation of honest tests' on the topics orderedtly law, Mr. llzettrrcould not be excelled, and that ho evinced an amount of patience and forbearance.equaled only by his kindness and desire to do even justice to all. He reports the teachers generally to be pret ty well qualified for their responsible avocation, a recent newspaper article to the contrary not withstanding. In,his opinion the 'teachers of Bradford would not compare unfavorably with those of any couuti in Pennsylvania. It rejoiced me to be assured by him that in many sections, conntoditins and well-furnished school-houses are taking tho places of the din gy, ill-constructed nuisances of the not- remote past; that uniformity of text-books prevails widely, and that his :300 miles of exploration brought him almost everywhere in contact nith an air of educational thrift and desire for pro gress. The directors and citizens generally attended, io eicininations and evinced hearty interest in the exercises. gis a fact worthy of commendation, that di reCtorg, lxfure engaging teachers for their dis• tricts, were observed almost invariably to IN SIST,TPON SEEING THE CEIIIIFICATES. This is the right course for all concerned, and promises well for the future of our schools. The Superintendent is busily engaged in vis iting schools. He ought to have an ollice at the county seat for the convenient distribution of school documents, and for interviews on sta ted days with all concerned in school manage ment as they may seek information. .StiNra. BlinitlUßY. —FRIEND A.INVIID: Think ing that a voice from Itidgbary might be rel ished by some or the readers of your paper, I give them a few Hues from the pen of an ama teur. When this township v. - as tirst se tikd is exactly known. But Mr. Lo, the poor Indian, is said to have had the that lien out what real estate there is luxe, and history says he melted away before the anvance of civilization like-dew before the morning sun. lit I have heard it said that civilization means, in that case, a free use of poor whisky. But the race is not extinct yet, if we may take the words of a noted, mem ber of the Towanda bar, as he styled a good democrat of this town "Big Indian" in a very forcible ma ncr. But I can assure you that getting civilized will not hurt him, by tiny means. Why they called this town Bidgbury I cannot tell, my knowledge being limited. I don't think it originated with 3lr. Lo or family. Some one has Said it W - as onacconnt of the amount of ber ries that grow on the ridges, which I think ism supposable . icase in every sensemf the word. The Water is good, and is said to mix very well with whisky, as it makes the latter article pleasanter to take, and not so dangerous to the equilibrium of the drinker. We have creeks here, and in high water they make quite a nigh ; and as a general thing they rush down stream with a vengeance. Why they run down hill 1 don't know, but 1 suppose they can't run up hill, as that would be upddll busi nese. The hills are as high.ns need be for com fort, and the laud faces the sun from all points of the compass. Ridglipry produces all kinds of grain in abun dance that are adapted to the soil, and as a general thing good crepe are the result of good cultivation. Butter pays well here, and farmers that have a good dairy farm areas independent as any class of people you can find. Butter makers feel sere over the depression in the money market and the consequent dullness of all kinds of country produce. We have no very rich men bete, nor none so poor that are deprived of God's blessing. There are as few sheriff's sales here as in any town shipin the county. The men are like all other men ; they as a class average fair.' The women ditto, only a little fairer. The young men swear, chew tobacco, smoke fine cigars and drive fast horses and of course criticise the dress or appearance , of this or that young damsel that-they saw at the last party. The young ladies—why bless their hear little hearts—"they dr4srfalr I have not a word to say against them, and would say nothing - if I had. They are sunshine and happiness, full of mirth, fun and frolic, unless at timeswhen they are unhappily disappointed. Then they are transformed from the maiden fair to the maiden foal in short order. ilidg,bury has tiVo places or centers for doing business—Centreville and Benny Creek—or Peunyville, as sometimes called. Centreville boasts of a store, post-office, and cooper shop; also a justice of the peace. Scully Creek is a business place—has two stores, hotel, and two 'blacksmith shops, all of which do a thriving business. EvsNs k Coders have lately erected a new store and tilled it with now goods, and are supOying the wants of their customers in a most dhliging manner. Old CHAIILEY runs the hotel. lie is a fat, jovial, good-natured' fellow, and when not crdssixl with any trouble, waits on the wants of all who call' to the general sat isfaction of the public.
