DIPHTHERIA EPIDEM;C'CAT:SED Hy ht.
ruitE MILK.--Sonie• few weeks ago there
was a very serious outbreak of diphtheria
in the neighboirlioisl of St. John's Wood,
iirri / rul Ilanipstc4d. Something like
forty of nifty cases arc reported to have
occurred within a few days, and as many
as twenty to have terminated fatally.
Strangely enough, the disease did not at
tack the poorer : nd more densely popula
ted Portion of the diStriet. The majority
of the sufferers were children whose par
ents occupied large and presumably well
built hOuset, commanding a high rental.
Oue of the medical officers of the Local
Government is at present conducting, an
investigation into the causes of the
bnt
break, find he will, it is believed, come to
the conclusion that it was due to contam
inated milk supplied from one particular
dairy in the neighborhood.
The disease is saidlo have first showed
itself in a house where there were several
children ; but, strangely enough, it at
tacked not - the children, but their mother.
This lady noticed in the morning, when
Presiding at the nursery breakfast table,
that the milk smelt strangely. She tasted
it and fen even - imore doubtful. She re
fused to let the children touch it, but
imprudently drank a large cupful herself.
Two days afterward she was attacked
with diphtliefia in a most pronounced
form, while none of her children suf
ere& hether this especial case is or is
not the instantia tampadis which will
guide the medical officer of the Local
Government Board to jthe conclusion he
seeks would be rash at}present to conjec
ture.,- It is certain, however, that con
taminated milk is, next to impurei water,i
one of tte most fruitful sources of 'diph-
theria.
At t Wey_bridge there has been at out
break as -severe as that at St. - John's
Wood, and we learn that in between
twenty and thirty cases the sufferers had
• all milk from: one dairy. La 'inspector
canto down, visited the dairy •in question
and-found that the milk-pails, cans and
basins had been washed ant' rinsed with
water-frOm a foul well. Every housewife
knows, or ought to know, hiv
ble milk is to contaminatiob. A few
drops of sOule milk will pollute, or, as it
is; called , "turn," ,the whole contents of a

Ma. Enron : —Speaking of Sabbath
Schools, I have thought all summer that
we had as good a one in Pennyville- as
there was in the world, but this time I
will acknowledge Pennyville fairly beat
en. -Their school, down at Centreville,
closed last night with a concert, and for
the tun of the thing I went down—but I
must own that I was perfectly charmed.
Everything Was in perfect order and good
keeping with the Sabbath ; the pieces
were spoken and acted to perfection, the
songs and chorfises well sung, the chil
dren, only fourteen in number, were taste
fully dressed and behaved like the minia
tureladies and gentlemen that' they are;
the oldest fourteen, the youngest five, and
their marching would do credit to any
veteran-soldier. The house was packed
full with not a scholar in sight, and we
might have thought it a " take off," were
it not for the platform and chairs ranged
thereon.
Soon the organiste bliss EMMA Wanu,
struck up a grand march, and in they
came tramp, tramp,
_keeping good time
with the music and taking their seats
without a mistake, led by a little girl only
eight years_ old. Then the choir sang,
beautifully, "Rejoice, the Lord is King,",
then the children gave the 23d Psalm in
concert, and the Lord's Prayer...with bow
ed heads and' solemn voices, and—l am
not ashamed to awn it.--by this lime the
tears were rolling silently down my
cheeks. Again the choir sang, and I 'tics
tired they were splendid singers, "Suffer
c l i
little children to come unto me," then fol
lowed the pieces and songs iu such rapid'
succession and pleashig riety, and a
good sermon in every one, that I was
completely chaimee. I forgot my weari
ness, for I had scarcely room to stand in,
and when
_at the close, :the Rev. Mr.
PADOIIAM made a speech; his first words
were the echo of my heart; he said " Gen
„treeille against the world.” I could scarce
ly keep from shouting, "Calory ! glory !"
far indeed they were all covered with glo

The fatal sickness lasted about ten days.
But it was not till within two or three
days of his death that the hope 6f - recov
ery was clouded and the dark shadow of
death fell upon. the eyes and hearts of
those who watched him and ministered
unto him with unfailing devotion ; the
more ceaseless and- anxious beeause of the
absence of his fond mother across thc sea.
His last hours were quiet and peaceful
and his passing away was like the-fading
of a :clond from heaven. His natural
brightness of mind and sweetness of dis
position were manifest in the very. article
of death.
"God gives us love, Sotriethlng to love
Ile lends us; but when love Is grown
To I Ipeness, that on wulelt It throve
Falls off, and love Is left alone."
Flutitis , blessed to know that love is not
lnttf wl olly . alone.- When father or moth
er, husband, wife or child forsake us,
then tl•e Lord will take us up. And the
eye of Christian faith can follow the de
parting spirit into the life and bliss of
heaveh and say with DAVID'S confidence :
"I shall go to him, but he shall not re
turn to me."
The funeral took place on Sunday Morn
ing at 9 o'clock: The beautiful, tender
autumn weather seemed in harmony with
the sa•J occasion': and what more .appro2
priate hour for a 'child's burial than the
bright and buoyant morning hour? A
delicate propriety dictated all the arrange.'
ments ; a poetic fitness pervaded all- its
parts. ,The innocent- child was encircled
with a pure whiteness: Snowy flowers
tilled the room with their beauty anal fra
grance,--i ecalling the words of Sritomos'ds
song : "My beloved has gone down into
his garden, to the beds of Spices, to feed
iu the gardens, ar.el to.gather lilies." And
these pure flowers were woven into the
inspiring and comforting cmithons 'of ;lie •
Christian faith ; the cross, the star,,.the
crown, the harp. Thus was death sweet
ened and hallowed ; thus did Faith and
Hope point front the narrow casket to the
broad skies of Gou's saving love. And .
with eyes and hearts lifted thitherward ;
the large company of mourning, and syna
pathizing friends laid him down in the
grave to await-the dawn of that more
- glorions morning when the Lord shall
come to raise his sleeping saints, and
when RICILIE shall appear among the,star
crowned sons of Gorr—the great multitude
of the harpers, playing upon their harps
and singing the song of redemption

EDITOR OF TUE REPORTER :—Vaving
read with much interest the "History.of
Bradford County," .allow me to say that
I think it a work of great valor,.
The fore part of the work—the early
history of the county—l consider a pro
duction of rare merit. But very few men
could have written a work so. complete
and exhaustiver. He has laid the county
under lasting obligations for this grand
achieirement of his.great research and toil.
The early, history of the county was
nearly lost, but he has exhumed it and
put it ou record for the present and sue
ceeding generations. In its local history
there are many blunders and mistakes,
which is to be greatly regretted, abut these
can be easily corrected by an 1" state,"
and a copy'sent to each owner of the His
t ryy.
lifit there is a prospect of a segond edi
tioti, in which these errors can be correct

Of our county has passed away. EDWARD
OVERTON, Esq., died at his residence in
Towanda on the afternoon of Thursday,
the 17th inst., of pneumonia. Mr. Ovrat.
Tax bad boon confined to bis honse
about four weeks, and his friends cherish
ed no hope of his recovery; but his death
was so sudden as to take the community
by surprise. In the morning lie walked
about his house and was wheeled on *his
couch to the portico, true to the last to
his English instinct for the open sky and
the fresh air ;..but about noondiy he be.
gan to grow weaker and soon- became un
conscious. In this state he remah ed un
tit about half-past four o'clock wh s It,
quietly fell on Sleep.
Mr. Demerol; was born in Clithe
Lancashire, England, December 30, .ripsN
'His early education was received at a fa
mous classical, school at Kirby Lonsdal •
in Westmoreland, but, unfortunately for
him in some respects, it was of theister s
type immortalized by Dictrixs in "!Is.tich

oug,h English and classical . training tha
remained with him until death, but sem •
of the methods of impressing Icnowled
were so severe as Up-leave painful recolle
tions ever after in 'his mind. His legs
preparation was received in the office o
GILES BLEASDALE, an eminent lawy e r
London, and was thorough and extensiv
for one of his years. In the year 1816 h:
came to this country and made his born:
in Wilkes-Barre, and shortly ,after wa.
admitted to the Court of COmmon Pleas
His first settlement was at Athens : in thi •
county, but after thrie.years be reinov • s
to Towanda." Henceforth be became
part of the history of the Court and tow.
and county. No man was' better know •
in his own line than was EDWARD OVER
TON in his profession of the law. - He gay,
himself to it-with singleness of heart au.
purpose and achieved deserved distinc
Lion. By a happy combination of Intel
lectual gifts ho was specially fitted for
this profession. His mind was 'active,
acute and highly philosophical; Ile ha.
a native insight for principles. Law wa:
a science to his mind, - lot a mere congeries
ordecisious and precedents. His menior
grasped /these, indeed, with marvellou•
tenacity; but his subtle analytic genie:
was never satisfied until he had reache
the great principles of reason and justic,
that lay beneath them and gave• them vi
tality and unity. And this same innat.
power showed itself in the many intricat
Jaw-points which he raised during his ac
tive practice. Ile carried new and pro
found questions hefore. the Supreme Court
which were the ocea.siou of several' of the
most important .decisions evei• given in .
the State. : His strength lay probably in
thin direction—as, a rudiMental thinker
and philosophical lawyer—and he ranked
with the groat men who have adorned ju- 1
Xisprudeniiir in Pennsylvania during the
la •t sixty years; although as an advocate
at t e bar he develin,ed great power and
\ won lasting praise. His nervous temper
ament rendered him unequal as a practi
tidner, 1.1. t we are informed that at times,
wheU,in 117sthappy moods, his plead

Justly was he prOud of liis\legal reputa

often arose irritqms that he -es . poorly
fitted by his sensitive, excitable empera
meat to bear, and that caused alictuitions
of feeling between him and his assort ter;
but we believe that all,are ready to adruit
that hia motives and feelings were never
Mean or malignant, and that he v*
ways prompt to repair any wrong thalthe
had unwittingly done. In his later years,
owing to severe mental disease, he was ,
prone to misinterpret and misjudge } men
with whom he came jnto businesscontact;
but no man who kliz•v; him in his inner
and true nature—who read his natural
heart of honor and kindness—will ever
believe that lie meant to do injustice or
wrong to any human being.
llis funeral took place . on Sunday, the
20th inst, at 3 o'clock.. The flay was a
very benediction of heaven ; earth and sky
melted into an unbroken picture of beauty.
A throngof townsfolk and friends gathered
to pay rcipect to the remains of the widl
known octogenarian, and a long and Sol
emn precession followed them to the peril
etery. It was a happy - and patlitic
thodght to have his horses and empty ar
riage, draped in Cl ape, precede his lifeless,
body to the grave. It was as near asitho
beloved horses could get to him then. But
it seemed strange to see then) without the
masterful face behiud them.
Time will not permit us to extend this
rapid sketch. We will add, by way of
conclusion, the address delivered. at the
funeral by his friend and pastor, the Rev.
Dr, STEWART, of time Presh3 terian Church:
TEXT—Hubs. 4:9..
".There remaineth therefore a rest to
the people of God."
Who are the people of God.? All be
lievers in Christ. They are the children
of God by faith in Christ Jesus. They
are the people of his -hand and the
sLeep of hilt pasture.
What is meant by the rest that remain-
Ali for his people? Not the rest of the
be first Sabbath, not the rest of Canaan,
not the rest exhausted by the glory, of the
Kingdom in Daiid's day. But the .eter--
nal Sabbath rest' df God, the rest upon
which'he entered when his creative work
wa s done, and which therefore still remains
and ever will remain.
- It includes two degrees or - stages. 1.
;The rest of 'the disembodied state: When
- the body of the believer dies, the 'soul
rises to dwell with the Lord in Heaven.
To be absent from the - body -is to be at
home with the. Lord. To depart from this
world is to be With Christ - which is far bet
ter. This is a state of perfection. At
death the soul of the believer is made per
fect in holiness. So it is with regard to
happiness. It is a state of blessedness. But
not yet of absolute blessedness. It is per
feet negatively, but not positively ; perfect
in quality but not in quantity. It is'only
at the resurrection of the body that the
full - adoption of sons is realized.
-2. The rest that remains for the people of
God includoi the rest of glory. Into this
they enter at the resurrection of the just .
when Jesus comes : "For the Lord Him
-self shall descend from heaven with a
shout, with the voice of the . archangel,
and with the trump of God : and the dead
in God shall rise first :
"Then we which are alive and remain
.shall be caught up together with them in
the clouds, to meet the Lord - in. the - air :
and se shall we ever be with the Lord." -
This is the marriage supper of the I
Lamb ; then all believers it down at the
right baud of God where there is fulness
of joy, and where there aro pleasures fur-'
ever more: And this is followed by the
rest of the final and heavenly state:
"And God shall wipe away all tears from
theiteyes, and there shall he 'no more
death, neither sorrow nor crying, neithot
shall there be any more pain ; for the for
mer things are passed away."
• This State of glory is the state of entire
perfection of body, soul and spirit. All
the pebple of God are tithed unto the ful
ness of God and ere made perfect in the
likeness of,Jesus Christ. They enter into
tbt joy of the Lord: The righteous shall
(.theshine forth as the sun in the Kingdbra of
he Father.
Now into this rest our &parted friend
has entered. To be alment from the body
in his case was to be at home with the Lord.
He'dwells in Paradise to-day. This first
Sabbath since he left us lin& him in a
better temple than he ever knew on earth
and engaged in a sweeter and holier
vice. He loved to visit the house of God
here ; he dwells in it there. • He loved the
weekly vialts of the Sabbath hem ; it shall
never- end' there. The truth was very
dear to him hero; he no longer sees
through a glass darkly there, but face to .
face ; he knows even as be is known.
It is delightful to dwell upon this to-day.
One friend had his full share of afflictions
on earth, but they are ended forever. The
natural sensitiveness and excitability -of
his nervous tompemmlnt was greatly en
hanced by the itifirinities of old age,- so
that in late years he suffered greatly, and
but for short periods was always affected
more or less in mental vision. Still those
who knew well could always seethe noble ,
qualities that marked his days of strength
and health. Hp was in nature a true and .
noble man ; always pure in his intentions,"
always generous in hiifeelings. His heart
was as tender as that of a woman. He
was always - ready to sympathize with sor
row and need, and quick to help by mate
rial benefactions. No one will ever know
how much he has done for the_ poor and
; or how patient be has been with
-orthw -upulous because

This many of us have see and-1116d of
to the praise of God'S , —that when
.41
his mind was obscured by in rmities and
his outlook upon the world al mistaken,
ear as • vision -of faith was' still ear as .a

To the last lie a ffi rmed his faith au trust
in the Lord; God Was his retig and
strengtha very present help in tmu le.
lie. was alimys responsive on the religio s
side-of his nature ; everything was clea \
to his spiritual sight. I - have seen this
again and again, and most impressively
and sweetly in his last illness. Entirely
bewildered as he was to many subjects
hismnind was clear and firm on the sub
ject of religion. He loved prayer, and al
ways expressed a - conscious reliance on
the merits of the Lord Tesus Christ, I
am told that almost the last word he spoke
was an utterance of conscious faith and..
hope. -
And this was not the faith of pride and of
self-rightousuesa. Never have I seen- a
man more-humbled, nor more deeply con
scious of personal unworthiness: Ile clung
to the cross of Christ alone. Ile held •to
it, and was held. Ilis only hope was in
the mercy-of God in Christ JeMs.
One. thing it is only just -that I should
allude to here : his -love for the Church
and for - the ministry of Christ. The
Church of which ho was a member, has
large reason to remember the name of Ed-
Ward Overton ; her ministers will always
kip in hallowed 'niemory his respect and
kindness. He belonged to a clan of Chris
tians that is fast passing away, who re
spect tha ministerial office,. and who es..
teem it a joy to honor the servants of G od.-
I shall never forget his Many acts of kind
ness to me and the respect that he paid
me in my office and .dhties. And I am
sure that if Julius Foster could descend
from heaven to-day and stand beside" his
casket, ho would speak -with melting _fer
vor and love of what be was to him dur
ing the twenty-seven years of his hard la
bor and manifold trial.
-And now it only 'remains that we say
farewell to all that is left on earth of this
Christian friend. We believe he has en.
tered into. the rest of, God's people, and
ere long werhope to meet him itrthe gunny
mansions of our Father's house. God has
agaiu.bronght us face to face with death
—the second time to-day—and admon

G. W. 4TAx, Co. Bup't,
EnrrOißitetnmes—Disarßir: In real;
lag your paper I see that in most of the
W wns offthe county you have, a weekly
correspondent, who writes you each *week
a summary. of events which kappa in
each place., 'Being interested in the let
ters °nam of these correspondents, I
was led to wonder whys place of the size
and impornume of Troy,was not in some
way represented in your "skiable paper.
I will therefore zend you some. of the
Priticpal items of interest, and should you
think them worthy a place in your paper,
I shall`be happy to write', you hereafter
'from week to week a little in regard to
our people, hoping it may be of interest
to some of your many readers.
The former part of this week our town
wore quite a clerical appearance, from the
number of ministers and people attending
the Episcopal Convocation of the North
eastern district of the Dioceie of Central
Pennsylvania. They were a - flue intelli
gent looking class of men, and loo ked like
g.icid soldiers in , the cause for which they
labor. Bishop Ilowz attended on Tues
day, and preached at 1O o'clock in the
morning. . . _
A bran's' , of the Chautauqua Literary
'and Scientific Circle has been established
here. and is in a flourishing condition.
Dr. VINCENT deserves great.credit for his
enterprise in givingso many people such
pleasant and prolitaule employment for
1 their spare time, as this society affords.
• Troy is at last in these days of "hard'
times"and low prices blessed (?), with
the famous "90c store," and for this rea
sonable sum wo can now purchase almost
anything that we don't want, for just
about double its. value. But this is an
advantage which few can appreciate. '
Butter is being shipped from here in
large quantities, but does not bring the
"old time" prices. •
Rev. S. L. CONDE, Pastor of the First
Presbyterian Church, goes to German
town the meeting of the Synod the latter
part of this:week. ;
Rev. J. E. WILLIAMS, ffir three years"
pastor of the M. E. Church. has - gone to
Rochester whets his next charge is-to be.
Ills successor, Mr: MAIIIILINE, has not yet
arrived. Mr. WILLIAMS leaves many
I' /semi friends in Troy, and many we ll
islitls will follow him for success in his
n • w s field of labor. - Onamtvzi.
