—Rev.loci Jewell, of Sylvania, has

junction of the Sylvania road with Elmira
street. Mr. Jewell, who is one of the few
pioneer preachers of this region left
among us will continue to preach to' the
people of Sylvania and Columbia X Roads.
We gladly welcome Father Jewell as a
citize:n and trust be may find his resi
dence among us a pleasant one. During
his long ministry Elder Jewell , has faith
fully adhered to the sentiment of that
good old Methodist.hymn,
- No foot of land do I possess,
No cottage in the wilderness."
but at this late day has concluded to ac
cept more modern notions.
—The effort to' injure, the credit or
character of business institutions, belongs
to the class of malicious mischief that de
serves the severest reprehension. At this
time of business stringency and financial
experiments, when even Congress cannot
let well enough•alcme, but is constantly
tampering with finances, there is a ten
dency in the public mind to feedjwith
avidity on every rumor, no matter how
empty it may be, that effects the business
houses. ''An' illustration of this morbid
tendency is afforded in the rumor started
some weeks ago by some designing per
son, of the financial -embarrassment of
Pdmeroy Brothers, of this place, and
POrneroy Brothers it Smith, of Blossburg.
1 Of course the rumor was industriously,
circulated, and we understand is still cir
cuts* by their enemies. There is not a
• word of truth in these reports, and we.
trust that whoever has been circulating
them will be.brougbt sharply to account.
It will be seen by our advertisingcolumns
that one such person confesses himself a
liar, and the liberal reward offered should
result'in the detection of other parties
equally guilty. Ponferoy • Brothers are
among the , solidest moneyed institutions
in the northern part of the State, and any
attempt to shake their credit 'pill only re
salt in the discomfiture of their enemies.

As OTHRTIN SEE Us. -Mr. ThiLiDWELL,
the genial and wide.aivake correspondent
of the pinghamton Republican, has been
"writing up" a portion of this county,
anti we take the liberty of borrowing his
article for;the benefit of our. readers . :
Only forty miles west of Binghamton is
the town,of Waverly, containing about
5,000 inhabitants, 'and at this village is
where_ the widely known and extensive
railroad, -the Lehigh Valley, continues its
Western route with the Erie.
Leaving Waverly at 11:144. at, on one
of their elegantly made up passenger
trains, you_pass rapidly out of the village
through a large level tract of land, cover
ing many thousand acres with no eleva
tion and covered With fine homes 'and
farm houses, reaching the newly made
village of Sayre two miles from Waverly.
The village is very small, but contains a
large hotel, planing mill and the, Cayuta
wheel foundry, with a capacity of fifty
pails per day. This plaCe was - named _ in
honor of Mr, Robert IL Sayre, President'
of the Pennsylvania and New York Canal
and Railroad Company. Connection is
here made with the Southern Central for
Auburn and Syracuse and Ithaca and Ath
ens railroads. Loolcing.from the east side
of the car can be seen the company's new
brick building for the offices of Superin
tendent Packer and his: assistants, • and
farther on is the palatial residence and
grounds of Robert A. Packer, Esq., Gall•
eral Superintendent of the Pennsylvania
and New York Canal and Railroad Compa-
ny, and as seen from the car window with
its.. grreen houses and well arranged
grounds, it at once impresses the mind of
the observer that when a certain
nent fentleman said it had neirOlual in .
Northern Penosylvenia, ho tart* truth.
_ Athens only two miles further, .is soon
reached. It contains 1,800 inhabitants,
six churches and numerous: business
blocks constructed of brick, especially
those recently built. The Novelty Works
employ about fifty hands, manufacturing
almost everything in the line of furniture,
and shipments are made to the leading
cities in Now York and the Keystone
State. Kellogg & Maurice's bridge works
employ 125 men, and aro situated within
the - village limits.' The shops cove: three
acres, and its work has found its way all
over the United States. Ten spans for
the Union Pacific Railroad, five spans for
the Kansas City; St. Joseph and, Council
Bluffs - Railroad, and two miles ofthe Ele
vated Railway in Now -York City, 'and.
early all the bridges in use by the Lehigh
1 Vey Railroad, were 'constructed by this
co 'any. The village is situated between
the usquehanna and Chemunm b rivers,
and w .: inhabited as early as 1768 by
white se tiers, and is by far the oldest
\
town in i e northern part of the State.
Noticeable among its old landmarks is.
the Welles p ce, owned by - the late C. P.
Welles (contr for for 'the Brooklyn wa
ter works, also ntmetor for a portion of
the Erie Hanna Lake ShOre and,lthaca
'and - Athens) and I. W. Patrick, Esq.
Athens has rapidly • creased .in popula
tion during the past w-years, and many
new and modern brick locks have skung
up, as it were, in a nig t. The' village
is nearly all on a main str t, a mile and
a half long, very wide, at 1 ,lined with
shade trees of all description surround
\ ing pleasant homes. .
In 1178 Athens Was called Tioga Point:
Colonel Hartley, with a force of 0 men,
ascended the river :Ls far as this pla e and
burned TiOga, with Queen Esther's pal
ace and. own. In the following year. w
ing his \ expedition against the India . -
General Sullivan made TiOga the base pl
his operations. Ile arrived here from
Wyoming with 3,500 men on the 11th of
August, anderected a stockade, extend-.
ing across the \ peninsula:-.from river to ri
ver, called Fort\Sullivan... General Clin
ton pushee- across the country from .14p
bany to Otsego Lake with 1,800 men, and
floated down the riVer, uniting his force
with Sullivan's, Angust:22d. The whole
army lay here until the' 27th, when it
went on its march of deva4ation, leaving
Tioga a military station , . under command
of Colonel Shrieve, whence Sullivan de
rived his supplies and fo which he sent
Ms wounded. The expedition returned
bore victorious, and on the 4thof October
the fort was deMolished and the army
went down the river to Wyoming.
• A paper is pablislied here called the
Gazette. A bank with a • good capital is
doing a flourishing business, as also the
hotels, which are kept by entertaining and
pleasing landlords.
Leaving this village we cross along iron
bridge, and to the.northwest of the town
is Spanish dill, .one of the curiosities of
this section: It is a bluff, running from
the center of the valley to a bight yof
about 175 feet, and commanding a splen-,
did view for many miles around:. Some
of the early settlers have been heard to
say that the Indians. called it Spanish
Hill, implying that the Spaniards had
been there, and Spanish coins have, it is
said, been found there. Thelildians sel
dom went on the hill, from some super
stitious dread, it having the name of be- ,
ing a particularly fatal place to their na
tion.
Milan, a village of two hundred inhab
itants, and Ulster containing four hun
dred inhabitants, are passed before the
lively village of Towanda is reached. The
latter is quite a lumberhig point and
many rafts are sent down the susquelian
na from :his locality, which in the early
days was known as. "Queen Esther's
Flats" called after the famous Indian
Queen of this name. . .
The scenery between Waverly and To
wanda is indeed beautiful. The track is
laid near the river bank, the water reach
ing nearly a quarter of a mile. across the
base of rocky accliritics on the opposite
side. ,
Towanda, the county seat of Bradford
County, is situated on the west bank of
the Susquehanna, and its surrounding
scenery is not to be surpassed in that sec
tion of the country. It was settled in
1812 and incorporated in 1828, It attain
ed its present name from the creek emp

NOTES of Tax. DIVI*ITY OF CUBIST—
By Ray. J. S. ,Sysvirlacr, D. D.:4-1: have
already'established four points': Christ is
called God, in the Scripture; He is said to
be the same in substance with the Fath
er ; He is represented as equal with God,
and He is infinitely exalted above all crea
tures.. To-night I shall %boa's as my fifth
proposition that He is said in-Saipture to
possess the attratifei of God. •
God is an infinite Spirit, and therefore
no finite being can possibly conceive of
'Him as He is in Himself ; i. e., in the to
tality
of His absolute being. Hence it is
necessary that-He should reveal .11ireself..
tb His rational. creatures in forms appro.'
pritAe to their rapacity of conception.
These 'forms of thought are , all derived
from a knowledge of our spiritual consti-1
tution, and are legitimately •transferred
to our conceptions of God, because man
is made in-God'simage. We are there
fore
justified in attributing to God the
essential and universal principles of our
nature,
.but in an infinite degree and ab.:
solutely free from all defect. Hence we
;speak of the. attributes of God ; the word
attribute signifying that which in human
thought, on the-authority of divine reve
lation, is to be truly attributed to or pre
dicated of God. These attributes are not
to be conceived of as properties distinct
from His essence, but merely as modes of
conceiving of His infinite being.
The attributes of God are distinguished,
in various ways. ~Generally, as incommu
nicable and communicable natural and
moral. It is nos necessary that, we should
adopt any classification Or our presents
purpose, but, simply show that the attrib-'
utes which the Scriptures predicate (Ward
are also predicated of Jesus. Christ.
I—Eternity.. By this is Meant the infi
nitude of God in relatioer to duration.
God is exalted above all the limitations of
time. So.tho Word - declares : „Ps 90:2,4..
Isa 57:15. 2 Pet 3:8.
And Christ is also declared to be eter
nal. St. John 1;1-2. "In the beginning
was the Word, and the Word was With'
God, and the Word was. God. The same
'Was in the beginning with God." In
the beginning," (Gen 1:1) means before
creation began ; before foundation of
the world ; before time began, (conparo,
Provs 8:23. St. John 17:5, 24. Eptis.l:4).
These are Bibliehl suckles of expressing
the idea of eternity. "4 In the beginning
was theiWord ." the same was in the
beginning," mean that the . Word (or.
,Christ, verso 14) is eternal. And. this
idea is also conveyed' in the verb "was."
He did not begin to be; He teas; denoting
an enduring and unlimited state of being,.
in' contrast 'with "was made" (or IZ .
came) of verse 14.
St. John 8:58.1 "Jesus said mite them,
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before
Abraham was, I am. Here we find the
same contiast between Au'raham as he
-coming, and Christ as eternally existent.
tid further, He applies to Himself the
n neef the 'Self-existent and Ignmutable
Jell vah ; .1" ! See Exodua 3:14.
St.sJolin 1.t:5,; 24. "And now, 0 Father,
glorir Thou me, with Thine own Self, with
thelslo which I had with that before
the wort was." "For thou lovedest me
before the ousidation of the world." I
have ahead, referred to these passages
to show the rikure way of expressing
the idea of etc it y. Here then we find
the Son loved bs the Father, and glorified
-with Him (as His °flow) before time be
gan.
' Rev 22:13. "I at '
the beginning and the • i
the last." Here He pros
istent and endle,ss being.
2. Omnipresence. By mmensity we
mean that. God tills all spa By omnip
resence that He is present w mrever His
creatures are. Both of these are attribu
ted to God in . Scripture: - 1 1 K ens 8:27:
Ps 139:7-10.
And they are as .clearly attribn ed to
Christ: Immensity: St. John '1:13.
"And no man bath ascended up-to htsty
en, but He that came down froth heave
even the fro of Man which is irsheaven.'\
Here Christ as to His divine nature is in
heaven ;as to His human nature upon the
earth. Now in the Bible heaven and earth
form the entire universe.
Omnipresence. St: Matthew 18:20, and
28:20. "For whore two or three arc gath
ered together in:my name (anywhere over
the earth), there. am I in the midst of
them." "And le. lam with you alway
(or all the days),:unto the end of the
world ) (or age). Thii is a promise' to
His Church in this age or dispensation ;
He is, with His servants,: wherever they
may be or go, all the day until He shall
come for his saints. Hence He is om
nipresent. • -
3. Omniscience. This means that God
knows ilitusell and.,,all, things Out of Him
self, possible and •ietual, past, present,
and future; in one eternal and simultanc.
ous act of cognitiOn.
This omniscience is :scribed to God.'
Ilebs. 4:13.. And also to Christ. St.
Matt. " All things are delivered nnto
me of - my Father (i. C. in His Mediatorial
character); and (passing to His divine nti-•
ture) no man knoweth the Son, but the
Father ; neither knoweth any man the
I•Father , save the Son, and lie to whomso
ever the Son will reveal Him." Hero the
same infinite knowledee is ascribed to the
Father and the Son. The Son knows the
Father in the same sense and to the mine
extent as the Fatter knows the Son. '
St. John 0:10. "Not that any ma t
bath seen (or fully kuown), the Father;
save He which is Of God, (or with God as
I an equal) lie bath seen (fully known) the
Father." This is added to the previous
verse lest they should think . that 'lie
meant there a personal. communication
,from the Father to every man, and' so
question the necessity of the mission of
the Son: Christ is the only revealer of
the Father. He alone enjoys an equal
personal fellowship with the Father, and
out of this proceeds full personal knowl
edge of the Father; which cannot be af
firmed of any creature. Compare St. John
1:18.
Thus we see that Christ claims OTlMiS
cience in relation to the Father. Bathe
is also said to possess it in' relation to
man. I can only cite ono passage : Red:
2:23. "And I will kill her children with
death ;'atid all the churches shall know
that Imo He which searchetb the reins and
hearts ; and I will give Unto every one of
you according to your works."
- The-speaker here is Christ. 4418. No
tice that He claims -a power that is' ex
pre. said to belong to God alone. Jer
17:9:141 So, then, Christ must possess di
vine knowledge.
4. Omnipotence. This means that God
can do all things ; that can be . done ;
things that do not necessarily imply a
contradiction. It is ascribed to God. •Jer
32:17.: St Matt 19:28. -
And this omnipotence is also acribed to,
Christ. Philip 3:21. Conipared. with 1
Cor 15:20-28. Here the same expression
which is used-of Ch- -- lied to
things
in the
involve
S'as 4icilb.
And Christ also is &Oared to be .un.
changeable. Kobe 1:1142. Hebs 11111.
0 They shail perish, but thou remain=
eat and they shall , all wax old as doth a
garment; and as a vesture shalt then fold
them np, and they shall be changed, but
thou art the same, and thy years shalt
not fall
"Jesus Ckist, the same yesterdayeand .
to-day, - and forever:" . -
Furthermore Christ Weald to possess di-
vine wisdom (1 Cor 114); divine love
(Ephes 3:19), and divine holiness (Bebe 7:
211). 'Bat I will not dwell upon these at
tributes. I venture to say that, hasty as
this, discussion has necessarily been, I have
proved the fifth point in this argument,
via : that Christ is said in Scripture to pos.
ess the. attributes of God.
' Fogurrterstt.Nowadays people doubt
now.nearly every thing. They . forget that
the known facts of to-day constituted the
knotty problems of hypothesis but a few
years since. Unsuocesoful practitoners of
medicine quote the_doubts and uncertain
ties experienced bY Sir Astley Cooper,
who lived not after Harveylliscore*l the
circulation of the blood, as evidence that
but little is known of medicine aside from
conjecture, entirely ignoring the fact that
their competitors are daily, healing die:
eases. which Cooper. thought. incurable.
Is not suchignorauce criinnal?. Catarrh,
the most common' and most incurable of
all-chronic disease% readily yields, to the
healing and soothing properties Of Dr.
Sage's Catarrh Remedy when used 'with
Dr. Pierces Nasal Douche. If the case be
complicated the blood most bo enriched
and purified by Dr. Pierce's Golden Med 7 Y
ical Discovery. No remedy yet known
eguala the Discovery in permanently cur
ing affections of the lungs, liver, bleed
and skin. .If affected with consumption
try Dr. Pierce's .Pleasint sPurgative Pel
lets. i They are a sum cure. • Dr. Oliver
Wendell Holmes, in a late address, speak
ing of our progress, said, "To those of
my generation this modern world, which
most of you take as a mater of course,. is
a perketual source of wonder, a standing
mime e. Science and art have so chang
ed the aspect of every day life that one of
a certain age might 'well believe himself
4:m another, planet or in another stage of
existence." No longer does the 'seden
tary man or the ; woman suffer
from torpid liver, constiplion or drastic
Medicine. Science has demonstrated that
the concentrated extracts nre.more potent
and reliable than the huge doses resorted
to by, our 'forefthe, hence the great
