season, and one which we unfortunately
forgot to notice . in our b st week's issue,
was the party given by C 01. B. A; Pito:-
ER at his princely residen co at Sayre, on
Friday evening, Feb. 0. About three
hundred invitations were issued, and
nearly that number of gues is were pres
ent. Most of our neighborin g towns were
represented, while many Were present
from Bethleherri, Easton, Xi. w York and .
Philadelphia. A special train received
the Towanda party from the fc.ot of Park
street at precisely 7:30 r. N. The Colonel
himself was in his most genial mood—and
all who are so fortunate as to count them
selves among his friends, know what we
mean by that—the guests seemed to par
take of the happy spirit of their host. and
" all went merry as a marriage bell."

delivered a lecture at St.. Vincent's
Church, Plymouth, Penn.," on - Sunday
evening, - Dec. 31, on "The Past and Pres
ent of the Irish Race in the United States.'
The proceeds of this lecture went towards
.paying for a lot adjoining St." Vincent's
Church, on which the pastor, Rev. PAT
nicx, TosEr.; intends,. at no distant day,
to build a Convent. Theie is as yet no
-Catholic school in Plymouth, and Father
ToXtn is very anxious to establish one
without delay. To sadist him in hasten
ing this project, he proposes to hold a
Fair during the Easter, holidays. and as
he his many friends iii New York, it is
hoped that they will not fail to give him
a helping hand, in this connection.

Proper education of Catholic children„will
not allow liintle be deterred by any ordi
nary obstacle. The zeal and success with
which be labored for thirteen years in
Towanda, are an canyest of his . sticcess in
the future. When, thirteen years ago,
he_was sent by Bi,,tion Woon,to this lat
ter place, his t0...W0n was fair from being
an enviable on , J. He had rnuelkto do and
to undo. The place was involved in debt.
The old ch‘arelt„ which was then twenty
years old, the plastering had not yet been
paid Tor. Father TONER had it finished,
paid the debt on it, and afterwards pur
char- ed two lots, and then commenced the
nevi church, which was so much-needed.
Tliis new church cost about Vio,ooo. The
ccmgregation gave Lim some $10,328, a
lf age proportion of which was contribut
ed by thefarmers, in work, hauling stone,
digging 'out foundations, etc. The ha
lance, with the exception o. a debt of t 711-
000, whiCh be left upon it, Father TONER
gathered together 'by his lectures, fairs,-
etc. •
Any one who has seen the church, can
readily understand how solid and substan
tirlD everything about the building is.
The basement is 100 feet by fifty in di
mensions, and is admirably adapted for
school purposes. The fitoue work is of
the best quality, and is ail cut. The
brick is also of the best quality, and was
obtained at Horse-lleads, near Elmira.
N. Y. 4
.The cut stone with which the
—whole lakurch is tritumed was brought
from Syracuse, N. Y. The main entrance
is all of solid porches of this -stone. The
spire is 200 feet high and is slated. The
whole work on the church was superin-
tended by Father To.NEn himself, -and he
was careful to see nothing- was slight
ed. When the location, the difficulty in
obtaining money and suitable building
material on the spot, etc., 'arc taken into
consideration, it will be readily seen that
Father TONVii has accomplished wonders,
and the gtwei and honest people of Towan
da cannot bit appiec ate his work; they
would be very ungrateful it' they did hot:
With this -record before him,. Father

tile village of Montrose, where she spent
many of the-happiest days of her girl

qualities, keen and ready wit, full of vi
vacity, courteous acrd easy hiller man
111.1F, and in her married life her home .
was renowned for its wide and gencrons
hospitality. Who iA there who ever found
triat'kind heart unpixpared to welcome

pleasure to her guest .was a trouble t.)
her. She understood the dutfes of hostess
perfectiy,--pl oh !there is so much . to
bring- tears and smiles iu thinking of her.
Seldom do we find so numy of nature's
best gifts b stowed upon .one person.
Mrs. Ill'unows bad an exquisite musical
taste, which was often enthusiastic; an
artist's eye for colors, dress, audall beau
tiful things. 'These truly feminine traits
were bound together by an iron will, en
ergy, perseverence and a certain superior
ity of bearing which tirade her truly re
markable. A gentleman who knew her,
long and well, said' of her, one year
"She is a person who never forgets het=
.If-respect, or dignity for an instant, un
der any and all circtunstanCes. She ever
bears herself erect." And the remark
was perhaps the key-note of a character
which always commanded attention and
tleference. It is of more frequent occur
rence that ardent and impulsis'e'tempera
mmits such as hers, yield to:adverse cir
cumstances and close their brilliancy or
identity. Yet this wis never, the case.
i - ith our dear departed friend. When her
face was worn Ly sickness and care, when
her form prematurely. bent had 'lost its
elasticity, the oldfasbination of youth lin
gered around her,` and dreW to her side
hosts of friends. Mrs. Burtnows :was par
ticularly agreeable to tbe.young, always
considerate and kind to the poor and tin

whose 'locks had sooner I. ; rown gray.
