been 'Written that villages, cities and na
flank like individuals, are born, grow and
die, and in the records of history wn flub
this thought verified. Our own borough
will not, can not' prove an exception.
Born in 1812, we have had our puling,
feebleiinfalcy, but strong with hope even.
in.our,tender years; ive have, by nature's
law, appropriated and assimilated; until
now iu 1875, we number thousands,
where thirty or forty, years ago we num
bered tenf;. We are growing, and our
growth. like that of all things, is deter
mine by our natural and artificial ad
vantages. The river, as a channel for
trade, was eclipsed liy the canal; and the
canal; 'in turn, bir the .railrmuls. These
roads put us in easy communication with
the -commercial centres of the, East and
South, and the grain depots of the West.
Added to ouP vast agricultural surround
ings, imn, - coal and timber, of fine quali
ty, are conveniently pear for 'our use in
manufactures. Business men'
recognize .
these advanta ges:and know that 'as -we
are put in right relations with these rich
es of nature, we. must grow. And the
(lay is not far distant, -when our present
thriving town of 3,000 inhabitants will,
through. the introdUction of manufac
tories. become a prosperous city. Our..
natural advantages invite capital, andite,
only needs proper encouragement on the
part ocour real estate owners to convert
the banks of the Susquehanna fur milks .
into a manufacturing city.
Prominent among. the many maamfao
teries and workshops which have . of late
been springing up in our midst, the

stands at the front l Among the later
corners in our midst, it shown itself a
' sturdy and promising child. Three years
old this month,- and yet with all the pre
cocity of American products, 1138 courted
and consummated its - first marriage;
having since the last harvest united with
the original WlLnuft's Eureka Mower
Manufacturing Company of Poughkeep
sie, N. Y. In this consolidation the old
firm name,lToiranda Eureka Mower Co.,
is retained. This cOmitination brings the
whole business of manufacturing the di-„
rect draft Eureka Mower to Towanda.
The Company are now become full own
ers• and proprietors of the patents and
territory of the United States, for the
manufacture of Eureka Mowers. This
Mtitver deserves more than a passing no
tice. It has been in use about ten years,
and when first put in the markets of the
States, was.a lone child, to be mocked
and laughed at. To seem, rather. than to
be, is the prevailing - study - of mankind.

As I am deprived of the-pleasure I bad
anticipated of meeting with you, which I
nnich regret, allow me to offer my assur
e ance of best wishes and friendship. The
appointment of a meeting of the. society
• in the western metropolis of the county,
• was a. happy theught. NMI we had prom
: iSed ourselves. the real pleasure of a
friendly interchange and renewal of pleas
' • ;nit associations and reeollectiOns of for
mer times. We now hope and trustlhat
the good men and true of Troy , -and the
western portion of the county, will. give
to the Society their names, : influence and
sympathy.!, and assist .those who have un
dertaken' to preserve treasures of local
history. The Society is yoUng but vigor
oils; its members are some of • bur most
'Worthy, and intelligent citizens. The
right hand of- fellowship . Is extended to
you, our western friendS, in a spirit of
Most sincere cordiality and fraternal af
fection.
A local history of our county is being
written under the fosterling care of this
society, which will tnmsmit to posterity
the history of pioneers and early settlers
who lived and toiled and died undervery
different circumstances from what, we
see to-day. And when a true history of
those early times shall' be written, your
oWn borough of "Troy and surrounding
country, whose heroes subdued the dark
forests and changed the wilderness to this
wealthy business centre, shalt occupy
some of its brightest pages. The work of
the Society will soon be handed over to
our children—to those who come after us.
While it is in our' hands, let us make
such a record that our sons will not blush
to read it. Let us not leave our work for
history, like tracks made in the sand, but
lilt& characters chiseled in granite or
marble, to endure for ages to come:
Trusting that this meeting may he pro

the kOciety, and of pleasure to its mem

bers, and that you limy Ike to enjoy
ninny social re-unions; and, that. we may

CHAPLAIN WCAIIIE addressed a'crowded
audience at the . 3rethodist Church on
Monday evening Although laboring under
the disadvantages of a severe old, and
excessive fatigue, having spolOn four
times the previous day, he was liStened to
with the 'most intense and enthusiastic at
tention. The fact of having participated
in, and been witness to the horrors of that
shameful reproach to modern civilization,
Libby Prison, gave peculiar interest to
his narrative:
The fine art of the speaker was' evinced
l'
in the power with which -his iniinical'de
,
i lineations of its "Bright Side," brought
:out every shadow of its darkest sUlfering
and privation.
1 -
the unutterable, pathos underlying the
: . !tietails of merriment, was freigheed and
'surcharged with the con age and heroism
of suchmartyrs- as only a grandLeause,

struck, and reverent, into the presence of
'plieirivito could sun ile, while they gazed oVer
the barriers of suffering anti death, into
; the regions of n nation's coming deliver
ance.
There was an inspiration in the pictured
enduranee of the loyal prisoners of the .
South. that rose to a strange pitch. when
the speaker. as if borne up on the courage
of a kindred faith; proi_daimed that —their„;
hretheren lived Vi-day." It is ‘cell for
Our hurrying generation, that there are
men who are keeping fresh. the 'memory
Of its martyrs and its faith to-day. and
nobody does it better •than Chaplain 31%
eanE.
The way, in which " Father Abraham's
gheptering arms of power were made visa
hle again—the swift survey of (Itta.NT's
career—the brief. but just allusiOns to
stern adherence to justice: and
the noble spirit that sustained his princi
ples
in Libby Prison struck us as opportune
and eorrectily of the relaxing sophistries
tif the hour.
Over the amusements of the prisoners.

pligan worhl to a Christian Church.
As the speaki;ic•totiched lightly upon
Bits of individual . history snatches of
6 - imance, flashes of thunder news from
V:irksburg and Getysburg, his own terri
ble illness, and recovery under the !Mrs
ing of a mere-boy, who stood out front
the canvass a‘ veritable boy hero, one felt
that he was retraciUg a pathway through
a: glorious past. Then came the return
home, and its many lined parallels of va
cant ranked returnings, that soldiers wives
and . niother's listened to, weeping.
!There are nice people who don't like
clweribg in a Om reit. or laughter fronting
a:pulpit. but they were not hurt in any
permanent degree or incurable place, Mon

their mental digestion'is . healthY.that it
will be helped by the mirthful suggestive

Cljtlably sweet music "If Iwere a Voice,"
crowned with the final benediction Of the
Pm* ,Lt Mete Doxology, we think the large

by as of no importance, as I am •afraid
'Many of you may do. Try and inform

We need some one who will give his

one who will raise the standard of educa

vigor; some one that will carefully look
after the teachers,- encourage them, and
help them by showing 0101111°w to teach;
which might be done by visiting the

We need some one that will work with
