the finer qualities in nature, which were per.

had gathered in his beautiful home a library

in any private residence, and which will long
remain a cherished memento of the good man
who has passed away.
. The poor loved him, for out of his great plen

monument.
As a public-sphited citizen, his benefactions
are too well known to dwell upon here. Suffice
it that the major improvements of our pleasant
village are due to his immediate enterprise and
liberality. He was, until within a ieeent period,
a ,rorl lop man. Life to him was not "a weary
return of light and darkness, sleeping and wak
ing, being hungered and eating." Ho was ao
five, and not weary in well doing. •
But last week we published a communication
from his pen; but a ;few days earlier he was
made President of the newly-organized "Brad
ford County Historical Society," having alwayi
taken a deep interest in historical research.
Now the hand is stilled, the voice is hushed in
death. Abler pens than ours will give him till

we have all lost in him is great—may he have
entered into the enjoyment of a reward which
is infinitely greater!

gar Below we give the decision of
the Supreme Court in the'liltaxm sr. IlEtwrrr
ease. The case has attracted not a littloatten
tion in the Court of Common Pleas of this coun
ty, and the pinion will be read with interest :
1. Where owners of adjoinhg lands, having,
had a dispute about their Immurdarie,i, agree to
refer the deeds and drafts to a referee tu'run a
line which shall be final, and such line was run
accordingly, it becomes the true line tinder the
compromise.
2. Where afterwards another line is run by
agreement, which id set aside on the ground of
fraud, the question again arises as to which is
the true line, and it is for the jury to say wheth
er or not that run under the first compromise
is not the right lute.
Error to the Court of Common Pleas of Brad
ford el milt v.
Opinion by A(‘NEW, J. Delivered March 29,
197()
It was ankrror to charge the jury that the
line run by Judge Morgan zooid not be set np
as a conseutable line; and that it was abandon
ed by both parties at the settlement made in
1854. Such abandonment (if it took place) was
a matter.of fart and not of law. The legal effect
of the compromise of 1851. would have been to
avoid the Morgan line of 1943, had there been
no imposition in procuring it. But the very
question in the cause was the invalidity of that
eompromise on the ground of fraud. .11 invalid
the pa rt les Were thrown back upon their former
boundary,and then the question arose on the
3lorgan . Ine. AcCording to Cowell's testimony,
he and Warfurd, hiving a dispute about the
1 oanclary line between them, agreed that Judge
Morgan should take the deeds and drafts, and
run and make the line between their land's, and
that this should, be final. The proof is clear
that Morgan did run and establish a line. The
compromise of their dispnte, according to nu
merous cases, was a good ground to support
the due established under the kompronuse.

v. Detwiler, 11 Casey, 409. The boundary thus
fixed was con - clusive, and unaffected, even if by
pare; by the statute of frauds andierjuries.
A new dispute_kating arisen,. and e ectmenta
brought by kninia,J. Smith, the set tlement of
this litigation in 1354-01 y the rnuniug of the line
by James A. Paine, would have had - the same
effect in establishing that lino in lien of Mor
pan's had this settlement been fair and not Pro
cured by imposition. 'But, the avoiding of that
settlement by fraud, remitted the parties to
their former boundary, wherever it was.- Tho
'defendant had a tight to have submitted to the
jury the question whether that boundary was

esteem is "big" with us, to be , sure, but then
it is our opinion that we should succeed well by
taking the course as herein marked out.
Now,. Mr. Printer, we'll just tell you a little
story that we hear about one of the Bradford
county pedagogues, and then we've done till a
future time. We copy- the story, which runs
thus : "A pedagogue who resides in Bradford
county, while teaching seven *wattle in' 1852,
walked 880 miles—that is 7 miles per day ;lour
months in 1863, 616 miles, or 7 per day ;Al
weeks in 1865, 2,860 miles, or 19 per day; six
weeks in 1866, 720 miles, or 21 per day; one
week in 1866,480 miles, or 36 per diiy ; 17 weeks
in 1868, 771, or 9 per day. Oa several occasions
he has walked a Mile in eight minutes.. In 1867
he frequently ran twe miles in ten minutes as
he was going to school in the morning. He was
almost invariably at the school-house by eight
o'clock, a.ni., remaining there until , half-past
4 o'clock, p.m. During about seven years he
was very dyspeptic, and was told by several
skilled physicians that ho could live but a short
time, as dyspepsia, liver complaint and heart
disease had ruined his constitution. He ceased
taking medicine and began moderate exercise
in walking, which proved so beneficial that he
carried it to the above extreme. When he cern
menced this exercise, he measured only 28 inch
es around the breast under the arms, now $B,
and is as healthy as the majority of people, to
My the least. Daring the past 14 years he has
taught 25 terms and had over 900 different pu
pils under his instruction. Siuce ho commenc
ed to teach he has spent-6GO days at teachers'
meetings, frequently walking from s.O to GO
miles to attend them."
Well now, we guess,,if you know of any ill
natured dyspeptic, you can tell him how to run
away from the disease and leave it for the doc
tors to nourish. We've - afew things more in
our mind, but must save a piece for next time.
From your DIA. JOSHUA.
Srumpvii.LE.-=Mr. Editor: Forsome
time past we have been on a stand as to what
calling iu life to pursue. We have finally come
to the conclusion that Atrrlicatatur would snit
Its best, and Authorship it shall-be. We always
thought 't would be a glorious thing to "wake
up famous" some morning. Racing Icing wait
ed for something, to "turn up;" and it hasn't
done it, we propose to turn np something. We
supposed we bad "struck ile" a month or two
ago. and that the eagle of fame was about to
perch on our banner. Seeing what a glorious
harvest of notoriety Mr. Form
..was reaping by
being embraced in the " Wirumirts' Bites" busi
ness,. we resolved to follow in his illustrious foot
steps. I had got mi - " maiden speech" nearly
ready, and had spent a few half days, before
the mirror, in perfecting the attitudes, when a
dispatch announced that the "Winimins! Bi
ters" had "met their Waterloo" at Boston..
Oxivr. and ANNA and LIZIIE and BUSY and
Orortox had come to grief, and Mr. Folio had
retired to krivate life a sadder if not a wiser
man. Concluding this was a "lost cause," we
didn't hitch to it. 'We felt as if it 'wet blanket
had fell on us, and sought relief in the Baron-
TEII. And we found it. We read a proclama
tion from Tuscarora, offering to carveuur name
in hi qrts'e (for $1,00), and a life4ize painting of
R-111.1C. Teroperance Patriarch thrown in. • Hero
was a rare chance to perpetuate our name, and
secure an ornament for ourintnroparlor at the
same time. We wrote to have our name cut
immediately. When we got to the post-office
and ins:ceded to stamp the • h.tler, we found
we were minas a postage stamp, also the "one
dollar." Truly, " Disappointment lurks in many
a prize." We felt blue- enough. But at this
solemn pass in our experience, half-a-dozen
good looking . girls entered the post-olliee, de
claring (to the P.M. of course) that it was "too
bad that somebody in Stumpville didn't report
the local to the REPORTER," and one of them
smiled her prettiest at Inc. In the brief space *
of fifteen seconds I resolved on my future occu
pation. Stimmtille shall haven correspondent,
I said to myself. Nu longer shall it sigh over
its obseunty. We aro bound to-lift it, into the
companionship of other towns, and render it
famous. We expect its fame will gather around
its historian, in return. Our "local pride" will
stimulate us to do the handsome thing by
Stumpvihle.
But to business. The early records of Stump
vile were washed away in the great flood. Some
of Noah's gmndehilaren pitched their tents_
here; long time afterward. They were care
less with the records, also. It is supposed they
were lost in the Susquehanna by the upsetting
of a canoe. There wasn't any "fire-proofs" at
The county seat then. These early Settlers hunt
ed for a living, rather than farm it, so there
were no stumps at that date- When Commies
first came to this country, he found them bad
ly sunburned, and rather destitute of clothing.
Comixters' companions soon began Au poke fun
at these destituto,settlers, just as HAM did at
NOAH. The curt we of • their friendship never
seemed to ruff smoothly thereafter. They
fought along the line all one summer, and pull
ed each others' scalps off. At last, Ur. Indian,
Esq., tookthe Western fever and sold out to W.
Prsx. The stumps had trees on them then,
and geographers fail to tell us the name that
the place went by. Some Connecticut Yankees
bonglit a farm here in the wilderness, and be
gan to cut down the trees to let in daylight.
Thu result was Stumps—hence the name. Abent
fifteen years ago, the farmers around herolook
a ' GALE'S Stump Machine" to pasture, and the
consequence was, most of the stumps got op.
sot. Those that couldn't ha burned, may still
be seen quietly sitting in rows around the fields
and by thefroadside. Stampvillo is pleasantly'
situated in north latitude 41 deg. and over, and
isn't fifty miles from the meridian that runs
through Washington. It is estlthated to. con
tain less than three thousand inhabitants.
The chief prwlactimis are hay, grain, pota
toes, boys, girls, live stock.' and poultry. Beef
and butter are exported. The climate is rather
cool in winter, but in the summer it is warm,
salubrious, and often showery • ExpeiienCed

with very considerable range of reldlng, and
his mind was disciplined by hard wor to metb--

With freedom from oeher demands: upon

a career might Imre added little his au
stance, lie knew something of its laden'
amiddt tbe cares of business . Prom
-the belch'
end bre ken' intervals he spared to literary
'trope; lie felt how the love of letters Aint n i rroi
the sorrows and trials of human life such solace
as the possession of wealth cannot give, Aunt
satisfaction as no other worldly pleasure can
approach. Prom the tillage, school-boy to, the,
printer aPprentice, and through the Initiatory
studies of his profession, be gave many inter
vals of solitude and eights of rest to those di
versions which hinted at the more , liberal in
stincts of his mind ; and so, from year to year,
he collected about lihn and hinissixt'curio i
things, and arranged and took delight in the
collections he bad made. Ile was a well-rea
and clear-minded lawyer. The early , years of
his professional life were attended by abundant
success, and only the imperative demands of
his own business took him from the mare active
practice of the law; but he ever retained for the
profession and its ureininsrs*eat regard, which
was answered by a responsive feeling of respect
for his ability and admiration and love Of his
character. He was a generous malt iniiiederd
logs with all men. Ills roof was always hospi
table and friendly to', his neighbors, his ho
was often spread for the entertainment of the
stranger. He never oppressed the poor. He
did many acts of silent charity. Many a settler
lad cause to bleeshiskindness and forbearance.
The news of his death will awaken the remem
brance of many such acts to many hearts. To
many a man, young and old, he lent 'a &min
helping hand; the , laborer and skilledworkman
have profited by his enterprise, and many an
obligation past duo has been suffered to wan
upon the convenience of the creditor. His whole
nature was generous, and his heart inclined to
kindness was never deaf to the appeals of suf
fering. Those who knew him well remarks
that he had a habit of doing and intending kind
ness without admitting the intention. His hae
was ever at the plow ; he never ate the bread
of indolence, though ho always pitied the un
fortunate. If lie gained a competency, ho nova
or was miserly in the use of money, nor gave
tribute to the love of gain. He was most indus
trious in his habits ; in his youth hill of energy
and endurance, in his latter days unremitting
in daily toil. His business affairs multiplie
from year to year, until they extended far be
yond his own neighborhsoilL
He was an enterprising and public virile
citizen. He wits alive to public improvement,
and lent his aid to many enterprises of a lasting
benefit to the place in which he lived. To the
exten and variety of his labors may be attribu
ted in part the sudden and comparatively pre
mature closing of his life—he may be said to
have died of overwork. Sensitive to personal
affront and keenly susceptible to personal kind
ness, he was averse to the pursuit of place.
Admitted often to the councils and gatherings
incident to a popular government he never
sought any place of profit, though eceupying
many positions of confidence and, trust. . His
acquaintance, by 'reason of his varied and acttio
course of life, extended widely among the lead
ing men of his day. lie had a considerable Ac
quaintance with the early history of the section
in which ho lived, and a sincere regard born of
a natural sympathy of the simpler virtues of
the men who laid the foundation of both nation
al and local progress, and made fertile fields to
bloom in the wilderness. Though unusually
progressive, he p i ned the traditions of the past,
heored and respected the men who 'made
them. He was thus in spirit one of the class of
men who form an important link to the primal
days of this section of the country, whose rel
membnince is now being gathered vaguely into
history, while their signs and lambnarks are
rapidly passing away.
The summary of his virtues may be set down :
An industrious spirit, a ceaseless energy, a sound
judgment, a generous hand, a liberal mind, and
a most tender heart. With these he accom
plished much, gave much to others ; with these
ho will remain in the respected remembrance
of his neighbors; with these lds memory will
maintain the love and blessing of his friends
and kindred. As he would have revolted from
any extravagant eulogy of himself, it has seem
ed meet that so good a citizen, so generous 'a
man, should be mentioned with such words of
bath and kind, remembrance as limy receive
the unqualified assent of neighbors, Mends and
kindred. The town in which he lived so long
and wrought so faithfully will bear trace off
his work long after lie is gone. The'gratltude,
of, many hearts will follow his incrOory, and
among those who know him in his le ma his ab
sence will be felt long after his m)rtal romaine
are hid from sight. 3 ,
