It would be an endless task to attempt to correct all the stapid mistakes made by newspapers, but this error concerns Penn- Z7zs directly.

TWA is Putting the eart before the horse with a ven geance. We do not deny continues the Me graph, so much of the terilg a story as describes the formatiew.of the arch, .we do say (and think it strange even that it should be neces sary for ns-to say) that the device of the archi tect was but taken trout a historical incident of Very greOlutportance. The name, in fact, was desired from the circumstance that Penn sylvania cast the deciding vote on the question of American independence. In SaWerson's "Lives of the Signers" it is statedthatthevote was taken by the delegations of the thirteen colonies. Six of them voted in favor and sir against the measure. • The delegations from all the colonies,'except one member from Pennsylvania, hadvoted and it was discovered that they were equally divid ed. litpon this simple vote, then, depended the entire question of issuing the Declaration'of In dependence. The name of the delegate upon whom so much depended was John Morton, and it is a , name that shmild never be forgotten. John Morton voted ave and thei deed was done. Thus pennsylvania, by giving the casting vote, settled that important 'question, and from that circumstance she received the name of the "Keystone" State—the thirteenth State—the block of the arch. OiwErs.—lfr. Editor : Since "Joz Dsvrts" has said "Good-bye" to us on "tomb tame," it may be proper for some one else to say something occasionally from this notable locality. The only difficulty seems to bo • dearth of news. There has been no Constanti nople fire destroying a miMon dollars here, nor have we a Bun pinta constantly filling . with sand ; and as for floods, the Judgment of the best educated and most intelligent of our cal. rens, as well aa 'strangers visiting us is, that Orwell KM can be minted safe for the present. We have-no railroad accidents to report yet, as the Wysor Ailey EMU not quite 'in running older: It may be delayed several days yet. It is still a question with us whether the Bingham ton fr. Towanda R.R. will run through Orwell Bat or Leßavaville. Fears are entertained at both places. For ,the summer season, few country places are more airy and pleasant than this. It is sel dom a day is so hot or the air so still but that a gentle breeze may be felt and a room made comfortable by ventilation, and as for: scenery and landscapes one may see "all over crea tion" and the river mountains lx-sides—a fine chance for eye-glasses.

Yon bad it in your mind that ho would ask for cloth for a shirt and a ftae-tooth comb. But ho didn't. You then calculate That the barefoot miss of 13 summers will want a pair of shoes, and are willing to beta postage stamp on it. But you mnsn't do it. She is looking at a waterfall, and —takes the largest. And so it is that Eggs flir nigh us, in large measure, with the staff of life. We stated that we had too little "religion " to boast of it. That was a feel To makoreligion eery popular in certain latiMes, yon must have a kind whose ministers need no salary, whose church organization never calls for money to publish bibles, sustain Sunday-schools, or for the missionary cause. Fact is, religion costs too till Irk. Fort• years ago Stumprille never dreamed of becoming a noted piaci., having a historian. Then "log cabins" in the woods were good enough: Now we all feel the need of tine houses —each a little better than his neighbor. It is a mystery to no of the present how the courting business used to be done when the whole family slept in the parlor. It couldn't be did so now, The oxcart answered to go visiting and to meet ing in ; now we need a cushioned coach, silver harness and a 2:40 span. " Homespun" tow pants and dresses were the Sunday style then, We array in silk and "fine linen" sow. Our women used to suppose a bonnet meant some thing to proteet the head and face from sun and winds and storms. But they have learned better. In face of these facts, who will say we are not a progressive people? Our youth are beginning to graduate at the common schools before they reach their teens, or are entirely leaving out the " common branches" for alge bra and the " planner." The prospects of , Stumpville for the future are glorious. When our contemplated railroads are all completeel, 'Boston will have to look well to her laurels, and Shadtown will find in Us a spirited and power ful rival. We are bound to rise. Clear the track. We feel like an evening star, and to -all patent right venders, table-cloth peddlers and itinerant humbug M.D.s, we respectfully but ;meetly say, "Shoofly! don't bodder me." We are busy salting down our greenbacks, and want peace. There is a slight ripple here in regard to the 15th amendment, otherwise it is quiet on our Potomac- Now that the said "15th" hare cer tain rights that white men are bound to res- pect, they were expecting to rote for U. 8.

The good which he has accomplished in the arduous duties of the school-room, is beyond estimation, and the loss which the calumet edu cation in our county has sustained in his death is irreparable.

June 8, 1870. To Tuosz GETTING THEIR CLOTffINO MADE TO °ADEL—You should study two things t First, to get them where first-class clothing la made ; secondly, where they are sold cheap. And in Order to be able to sell a good article 1 1 cheap, the merchant must - understand Ws bassi. ness, and know how, where, and what to buy, as a practical man does; and a practical tailor in all its branches I profess to be, having had 18 years experience in the business. Have been s cutter in some of the best houses in New York city. Ido my own buying, selling and cutting, and hate to divide my profits with no man, so that lees of it will do—and with low rent and other expenses in proportion, thus maldng the cost of carrying on the business very small. In reading the above you will see why it is that I can sell goods cheaper than men follow ing the business, and having no knowledge of it themselves,have to employ others at largo salaries to attend to it, and customiSns Waist par accordingly—as they, hie myself, do business to live by it. If you doubt the above statement, be convinced by calling on thornr Branum, Merchant Tailor, Bridge Street To KEEP ICE.--Now that ice is high, it in worth while to keep a small piece a geed while. Slake a double pocket of strong woolen cloth, no matter how coarse and faded it is: Hare a apace of two inches or so between the inner and enter pockets, and pack this spaceas full as possible of feathers. Yon hare no need to use geese feathers; hen's feathers are knot as good. With a pocket thus constructed and. kept closely tied at the month a . few pounds of ire may be kept for a week. Tknote & GORE, Merchnlit Tailors, would revoctfolly inform all those who have heretofore been in the habit of getting their clothes made in the cities, that there is no longer any necessity for so doing, as they are now prepared to do as fine work at lower rates. • • seer The directors of the Lehigh Valley and Pa. & N.Y.
