ONE of the most festal occasions of the

Mr. and Mrs. PAtKER, at their handsome

a !sleighing party composed of friends
from Towanda. The Colonel fairly out
did himself in geniality and hospitality.
WARREN CENTRE.—We report an aver
age condition of prosperity, morally and
financially, although the Sheriff was
amongst, us one cold Saturday not long
since. Somebody has to pay . him. I
think it is best td. come to the Mark
without such expensive :help. We shall
not need his services again for a':,long
time—if wo.will profit by, the experience
of other's, As a people we are trying hard
to lessen our debts. All of our real wants
are supplied; it is our imaginary ones
that, get us into trouble. .
Our four charches. including the North
Warren church, are watched over by be
loved pastors, who break to us the bread
of life in an acceptable manner. The
meetings are well Attended.
' We have a neiV F.team "jusi
completed athi nip by Jour Dimos and
FRE:krorr CABEY, both worthy ' young
men: •
The steam whistle reminds us that it is
time to talk about a railroad through this
vicinity again.'2' , We hope talking and
acting may go together next time.
Our merchants are having a good trade.
KINNEY BowEs have dissolved part

CuOEEICS Farmers' Exchange,
little farther along upon the s.ime•street,
is in actives operation. Iris iucreaSing
business has caused him to take another
assistant. Jot: is an - obliging, genial fel
low, and is worthy of the good patrottage
which be gets.. Another thing in his fa
vor is that he keePs a superior quality of
goods and sells them as cheap as the
cheapest.

We boast a Good TeMplats Lodge, and
have a singing school twice a Area, con
ducted by Mr. FAIINELLS, who is liked
very much as a teacher. Our Chi-istmas

rejoice.

_ LARGE FIRE IN ELMIRA—TWO 'FACTO

of a disastrous fire which occurred in that
city <oi Tlint'sdav last :
'"A tire broke out yesterday morning

but little if any hopes of saving the hand

raging.

rected labors of the iirAnen, the gOod
high, stout wall, and the iron door, may
lie attributed the saving of the city (;tie
of the most dis.tstrims conflagrations that
ever beryl it. The back t;fitrance to Mr.
11oLnEN's building is from a lane coming
from Market street and consists of a large
sloorway whiCh opens north in the direet
tion (if the burned building. He has had
as further protection a large door of boil

the tire was in the immediate vicinity of
these doors, and at tine tine they were

Prof. P. P. -Wass and yife.i They left the

Esq., in Rome, on Thursday last, for Chi
cago. to aid in, the great religious work
'now :being - prosecuted there by : MOODY
and but like thesainted PanvlN,
they meta painful death. While Mr.
Buss' useful life. has be . en suddenly cut
I off, he .will be remembered as long as
Christians sing the beautiful hymns
which he gave to the world. " Hold the
Fort," the _" Armor Bearer," "Almost
Persuaded," "Jesus Loves Even Me,"
and many other popular hymns, which
are sumraltover the civilized wbrld, will
keep his memory fresh for ages. +,
Mr. Blass was born in Tioga edunty, in
thiS State, and was thirty-nigh; years of
age. .llis parents were extremely poor and
his education was limited, but he develop
ed high musical talents at an early age.
He studied music under GEo. F. Iltxty,
and after teaching it for awhile in the East
went to Chicago in and entered the
employment of BOOT d Soss, 'rem:riming
with then down to, the great fire. In 1810
he became the - chniifiter of the First Con
gregational'Church of thac.eity, and while
in that capacity wrote most of his favoritb
hymns. lie had a •magniticent voice, su;
perior even to that of SANKEY', and was
very popular in Chicago in the bass parts
in "Elijah," "Moses in Egypt," "The
Creation," and other oratorios. Re was
an unostentatious Christian, and at the
time-of his death was on his way' to' Chi
cago to -take up L 'the work which Mr.
Moony is soon to lay down hi that city.
The Chicago Pipers of Monday give
teresting accounts of the 'scenes at Mr.
Moony's' f-zunday, meeting. While the
congregation was assembling' the choir
sang several of the favorite hymns
tern by Mr. (kiss. Presently Mr. Mooov
entered, awl, as-all e.Yes• were turned- to

great sorrow, he stood up in his place,
_and,: with manifest trouble to keep back
the sobs and tears, he repeated those
words of Davit), "Know ye not that there

T HE , NEW YORK TIMES.
FOR 1877. ,
DEVOTED TO REPUBLICAN PRINCIPLES,
AN D RFOII$1; IN 'MUNICIPAL, STATE,
AND OKNEUAL GOVERNMENT
to s .
l'he course of he TIMES during the Presidential
campaign has secured for its hosts of new friends,
and has placed beyond controversy its
_position as
the foremost Republican journal its the_United
States. During the Wince! struggle prceding
the election the fellness, accuracy, and fairness of
itkriews repot ts were as obvious as its vigor and
breadth of view as atiorgan of public opinion. The
critical situation In Which the country is placed:by
thee disputed result of the eleetbm, has been
promptly recognized ,by the: Trwcs, but it _has
found DO reason to modify the claim which it urged,
alone among Its cotemporaries, that the vote of the.
:titter November secured a majority of Electoral
votes for Hayes and Wutteler. Readers of. the
THIES on the day following the • election were
planed in pietsession of returns which were simply
the tpost complete and - trustwortny published in
any part of the Union. The more thoroughly the
facts of the election are disentangled front the mass
of Democratic falsehood and pretense which has
been thrown around them, the more clearly Is the
justice revealed of the claims made by the Ttattsi
the morning after election.
' Now that the election of Hayes and Wheeler is
perceived by Impartial observers of, both parties to
tw a certainty, the TImES recognizes the fresh re
sponsibilities, which this renewal of a great public.
trust imposes upon the Republican l'arty._ The
TiNEs was among tile foremost defenders of the
principles of purification and reform within the,
party which triumphed In the nominatlen of Ruth
erford It. Hayes at Cincinnati. It will be-as prom- .
leent and as uneompromising In Its demand for the
embodiment of those principles in administrative
and legislative action. The election has given rise
to constitutional controversies, these discussion
may last for Months to come, and whoseaettletnent
may tax all the good sense, forbearance, and law:-
abiding tnsrtnets of the people at large. It will he
our constant endeavt r to correct excited feeling by'
dispassionate argument, to urge the supreme nceen
iity of moduration and fair dealing, and to Ham
the resist:a - Nil ty for stirring up strife . where it be
longs. But we shall do so without abating One lot
Of the Just demands of a party-417Mb standssocure

to uniformity of method In the proceedings taken
by State and local boards to trwertain the vote
