3.1.41413F1ELD, T 100.4, CO., PA. —I have
noticed in the it rearm the miestions of R. A.
31., of Philadelphia, in regard to the locality of
"Fencelar Castle," and of the gentleman who
occupied it in 1817,•the date of the extract from
the anineelleid Herald to which he -refers. As
no one has yet answered his questions, I will
give some little information on the subject:
The beautiful valley mentioned In the extract
referred to, is the valley of Wysox creek, and
that stream is the small river mentioned as
flooring through the valley. In this valley,
about three-fourths of a mile from M,yersbarg,
is the location of the celebrated " Pencelar Cas-
c." The gentleman who occupied it at the
time above mentioned was Dr. SErri F. Dam
s-row, and the "earth's fairest flower" who was
said to be "transplanted into that garden of
nature as his wife," was a Miss WooDnurr,
daughter of Captain SAMUEL WooPturr, of Or
well.
This place iras occupied some years by an old
hermit named MATTIIM FEZICELAE, who Jived-
in a small log uRLw at the foot of the hill a
short distance west of the public road. He cul
tivated a small iMtch of ground with , corn, po-
atoes, anal some other vegetables, bitt be main-
ly depended on hunting fora living, and cloth
ed himseltpith the skins of the animals that
he killed. After the Ohl hermit had lived Lore
many years, a couple of boys from what is now
the township of Rome r on their way to where
the 'linage of Ifyerslntrg now is, stopped at the
cabin to warm! themselves and found the old
riwu 4ing in his crib, or usual sleeping place,
dead. They went on to Ifrcu's tavern and re
ported the eiretuuntinee. This part of DraAl
ford county at that time belonged to Luzern,
and there being no coroner nearer than 'Wilkes-
Barre, Mosrn CIXILDAM7III, Esq., summoned s
jury to hold au inquest over the body. During
this proceeding, WrI.LARD Gut:r.y, who lived up
the creek beyond the "Castle," started home
from the tavern. Haring taken a rather heavy
load of whisky within, he soon felt the need of
soya: reptme; so he called in and laid down by
the dead man, and Went to sleep happy , -es a
lord. After dart, the Inry arrived With the Es
quire ahead mall a lantern in his band. On
opening the door, the sudden flash of light
awaker.ed tint:r.s, who sprang up from beside
the corpse. TheEsquira thinking—if he took
time to think at all—that perhaps it was FS7CE•
Latt's ghost, retreated in double-quick time.
But tlarmi soon relieved him of his fears by
telling, him to come in—that F.L.ccr:Lta was
dead and could not hurt him. The old Esquire
came in and said., " Why, GREEN, Were yon not
afeard, lying here with a dead man?" ifitccar's
reply was, "I never feared a live man "—sug
gesting, of coarse,. that there was no cause to
fear a dead man.
There is another place b'esides the "Castle"
that is, named after Ft:tem:tn. The old man
In one of his limiting excursions encamped for
the night on a point of rocks near Mallard's
creak, about tw•o wiles from the village. of
Home. !Here during the night ho wasattacked
several times by a gang• of wolves, but was so
situated on the rocks that they could not ap
proach him only from ono direction. Ho kept
them off by a lively discharge of fire-brands,
other ammunition that ho had with him being
so nigh gone that he would not use it for fear
of being in a worso sitaatiun. This place is
known throughout that region by, the name of

Ir Dame REPORTIR : The time
honored "Pourthemas remembered and duly
celebrated by the citizens of Beaver Meadow,
in Tramarera -township. In accordance with
previous notice; they assembled at the church
at 10 o'clocka.m, and undid the lead of their
marshal, P. P. HARDT, Esq., preceded to the
grown near pp. Luna Strays, where they found
delightful shade, - good seats, and a speakers'
stand tasteikdlydecoratedwith . wreaths and
flowers.
The meting was called to order by the Freed
'Aleut, Mr. 3. firennstarr—ono of the old and
substantial citizens of the township—after which
;an eloquent, prayer was offered by Bev. Mr.
'—. The declaration of independence was
then read-by N. J. Coossm, 3LD., and duly
expouhded by him in his usually felicitous style.
Ho was followed by Mr. iAlikel In
Cafra v, of El
,in a stirring recount of the 4 l elay of "Soy
! eney-Six," which was listened to ilth universid
attention and frequent applause. Immediately
thereafter they adjourned to the table; and
here the festivities of the day reached their cli
max. Surely, the ladies of that vicinity have
no oceasimrto study the culinary art longsfr.'
Everything in this departmemt was gotten up
faultlessly. The most fastidious epicure found
something to tempt bia sippotite, while the floral
decorations were a feast to their eyes. All en
tered into the spirit of the occasion, and every
one seemed to have forgotten the command—
" Let your moderation be known of all men."
There was a general disposition to be indepen
dent of *Maws of health{ or any other but the
general one making the glorious Fourth a na
tional day of festivity.
After having fortified the inner man against
any after attack, the company again surround
ed the speakers' stand, and -the meeting was
called to order by the President and addressed
by 8. W. Limns, Esq., of Lellaysville, who
treated us to an elegant mental limit of nearly
an hour's duration, which was characterized by
an elegance of diction, perspicuity of language
and statement of historical facts connected with
the history of our country seldom equaled in an
address of the kind,. and never excelled. Mr.
Ism; although a young man, has proven con
ensively his ability to make a "Fourth of July"
oration equal it not superior to many an older
head. It is needless to say his remarks wore
'Wend to with the best attention, and at the
close a vote of thanks was unanimously tender
ed both speakers for their very entertaining ad
dresses.
The choir, wider the leadership of Prof. JAU-
via, was preient, and enlivened the occasion by
appropriately selected and admirably executed
music interspersed between the slieeches.
Abend 4 o'clock, p.m., the audience dispersed,
all pleased with the entertainment, and with a
mutual desire that they might live to enjoy
many an occasion so pleasant.
Ily unanimous vote it was. decidel that the
proceedings be published in LAADVOIIII
litron-
Tun, Argus, and Independent Republican, and
that N.W. Breit be appointed to forward a copy
of the proceedings to each of the above papers.
M.. The clerks of the L.V.R.R. re
cently made an excursion from Manch Chunk
to Wavvrly. We clip the following notice of
their reception in this pla7 from the C'arbott
Donoeral : •
"Our forty niinutes arse up and we eared leave
once more in No. 28, under the care of Garret
Brodhead, and we are off for Towanda. After
feasting ouceinoro on the beauties - of nature,
and 'casting a long and lingering look behind,'
we arrived at 7:35 p.m, Through the kindness
of the officials, ire were landed opposite the
• Ward House.' Here the company separated,

by the guests of both houses on the next morn
ing, one would anpppse the proprietors had ca
tered on this occasion for the championship.
We always 'praise the bridge that carries 1111
safely over,c and if experiende teaches wisdom,
we would advise visitors to Towanda to stop at
the Ward.' The rooms are large and airy, the
table loaded with all the delicacies of the sea
-11011, and the cooking unsurpassed. The bill of
fare was incomparable. I shall not attempt to
give it. It excites my salivary glands to think
about it and would certainly make me hungry
to write about it. The excursionists wend greet
ing to Mr. and Mrs. C. T. Smitli, with thanks
for kindness shown, and an earnest wish for
their prosperity and happiness, with the prom
ise, that if ever permitted to -visit - their town
again, and their latch-string still hangs out,'
they shall be our host and hostess. After par
taking of the good things that were so bounti
fully sprees"' before us (for by this time our ap
petites were sharpened up to a keen cutting

mond and wife, Supt. of Repairs,J. M. Bohm
and wife, Messrs. llngsbury, rost, Griffith's,
Bishop, Hass, Hart, and others, whose names
my treacherous memory has failed to chronicle.
We would be cold and callow; indeed to every
sense ofjustice and propriety, did we fail to ac
knoniedge our indebtedness to Messrs. eOl,
Desmond, Rehm, and Kingsbury; who used
every exertion to make our trip to and stay at
Towanda pleasant. For the procuring of the
hall and furnishing of rehyshments they will
please "accept our warmest gratitude. Well
may the Pa. Jc, N.Y. C..&11.11. Co. be proud of
such officials. TO the others whose names we
have mentioned, wo return thanks for their
generomi kindness in extending to us the right
hand of fellowship and making our staynniong
them an occasion tons to be remembered. And
as this is the season in which men of distinction
receive from institutions of learning title* of
honor, I hereby . , by , authority vested m me, con
fer tipon them the highest title known iethls•
land—Guatramme.
"Towanda is situated on the west bank of
-the Snagnehanna. It stretches for- a mile up
and down the river, and is one of the most beau
tifully located towns that I have seen fora long
time. I was sorry that our short stay gave us
no opportunity of seeing as mach of the town
as we would have liked, but judging from the
largo warehouses situated on the principal
streets and the business look of the place gen
eral)y, I Would set it down as the emporium of
the Valley."
On returning to Mauch Chunk, the excnr
sionista passed the following resolution
Resulted, That the thanks of the excursion
ists be tendered• Mr. J. P. Ccix, Superintendent,
Mr. Thos. Demi:lend, Assistant-Superintendent,

CABD.-111.2. Emon—Dear Sir: I
trust you will allow me a brief space in your
valuable paper, as it is the only medium by
which I can reply to the vender of a base, con
temptible falsehood. On the day, and shortly
before leaving your town, I was informed by a
reliable gentleman (whom I had insured on the
pieceding day) that a certain individual mis
representing a peculiar life insurance company
stated to him that the 'Guardian Mutual Life
Inintrawee Company, of Now York, paid no divi
dends ; that ho know of a policy in force six
years on which no dividend had been paid.
Now, Mr. Editor, permit me to say that I deem
it but justice to your townsman and friend, J.
A. RECORD, so well known in your community
as a straightforward business man, who has
taken the agency for our Company, and, as We
believe„will most worthily represent it, anti also
to the Insuring public, that If the old gentle
man, called Lncifer, had taken possession of
that individual and appropriated to his own use
hie rgans of speech, he could not have tittered
a baser falsehood. The truth is, that hundreds
in Laterite and Susquehanna can testify that
for rifteeirmonths past 1 have been paying the
reey highest rate ry' di reeds paid try any com
pany, and I challenge the said individual to
prove as much for the company he misrepre
stmts. And I would here take occasion to say
drat it is very unfortunate for the Homeopathic
(as you know gives small doses) that it , is rep
resented by an individual of such rcA•Ws
ir
ronnsislenry, inasmuch as hit company's busi
ness (dividends included) is conducted on ho
nuropathic principles, while his lying exceeds
anything I ester knew on allopathic principles.
Statements, like the above come with pecu
liarly bad wade from a representative of a com
pany, that not only has paid no dividends at all,
but takes seventy-one and one-half (7l).) per
cent. of all its income to pay its current ea
penses.' These are the official figures, and 10. .1:
very much like a homeopathic investment.
Those desiring insurance will find a most ster
ling Company. represented by J. A. Ittfoun,
Esq. Be sure to call on bins before insuring
elsewhere, Wynn prefer certainty to uncertain
ty, truth to falsehood. N. LA 31Ann,
Scrtuiton, Pa
Viiir It probably never entered in
the thoughts of the moat vivid imagination of
the oldest inhabitant, that 'Towanda would be a
port of entry. Although this is a good yotato
country, no Murphy asks the collectorship of
this port.
Yet so it is—collector or no collector—ln this
age of American progress the good ship Elmira;
with commander, captain and' mitlohipman,, to
say nothmg of the crow, anchored off the &ep
wittersopposite MEaxs' dock Tneaday morning.
A lA.O gallant or marine looking body of
men never:entered this or any other port. The
captain, with his bronzed visage, indicated a
past life on the ocean wave—a life never known
but to. admire—where deeds of heroic noble
ness are the common occurrence of each day's
life. JACK TAR in the past or not—he is worthy
of any ship in the service.
The commander (we speak of him secondly,
for this is written in haste, and we ; only met
him after the foregoing was written), with quiet
tact exhibited the dignity which a largo pay
gives that position.
The midshipni,in—what shall we say of him?
The kindly woral spoken by the ladies during
his slay are not Lobe repeated. Without doubt
he was a shapely'young man.
The gentlemen, officers of the good ship,
are—
ROBERT STEPIIENg, District Attorney the
luting coMity, Elmira ;
Xi:soarer, Cashier Erie R.R. ;
C. V7.l:flours, merchant, Elmira;
Own Invm, son of Gen. Invm, Aehitant-Gen-*
oral N l .pw York.
'Oar space will not permit ns to s ak in de
tail of the ci;pw. We can only ony,Las mapy.as
we saw of them we had no oceasien: to criticise
unfavorably. The officers were gentlemen in
the true sense of the word ; Young men in the
full vigor of life, finding a more sensible way of
enjoying it than in the'ealoons and nightly re-
sorts where so many of our youn6 men waste
their money, and what is immeasurably far
worse, their health and self respect. The vir
tue of oat-door life and exercise may be written
by the page, but no orie can appreciate itskind
ly influence to body and soul, as he who, pent
up in hot brick walls, enjoys for a week tho un
selfish gift of pare air, denied to none, enjoyed
by so few..
May the example or our friends be imitated
by others; and as they raise the anchor our
benediction
Good ship Elmira! sail on, or fear to breast
the (linsquehanua) sect;,
Our hopes, our hearts, our lt!ith thee!
