TROT ITEDIs...ED.. REPORTER—Dear
Sir : Here in Troy as well as elsewhere
the topic of the - day seems to be the polit
ical situation. It is discussed both pub
licly and privately, and this very discus-
sion of the subject is encouraging to all
who believe in an honest straightforward
policy, and who want an honest currency.
I say it is encouraging to this class of
men, because in the simple discusiou of a
subject the right will continually gain
frknils and supporters, while the wrong
will always lose. •
However . there are not many of. the
Greenback persuasion in Troy. They did
not.have - g,otel success. in the beginning.
For a number. of weeks they tried very
hard to have a meeting, but failed com
pletely. But finally by importing a few
"stool pigeons " (one was a , very large
one, and told us he came from among the
ancient Democrats of Towanda) and mak
ing great efforts generally, they managed
to get together a few men, who went. be
cause they Lad nothing else to do, -and
some small boys, who went "to ace the
fun and do the cheering," and called it a
"Greeuback meeting." But it was a'
complete failure, for the'statement of the
principal speaker that he had been a Dem
ocrat and 'stumped the county as such for
more than fourteeu - 3 ears, did not seem
to be exactly,
,the kind of talk, to make
converts to tne Greenbackers. From the
scarcity and silence of the Greenbackers
since this meeting I infer that this togeth
er with the stating of their principles (?)
was enough of Greenbackism for the peo
ple of Troy. And when election day comes
round the usual good majority for good
•old Republican, principles and honest mo

elegant articles failed to make the effect

were Mr. Black, with his sewing machines,
attended by hosts of interested house

Were present, add discoursed delightful
music. In their competitiOn intense in--
terest was excited. The first premium
was given to the Fox baud, the second to
the Dushore baud, and the third to'tbe
Laporte band. The latter took their de
feat gracefully and gave prominent citi
zens of Forksville - serenades in the even
ing. It is certain their playing, for sweet
ness and clearness of tone, harmony and
perfect unison, was held by hundreds on
'he fair - grounds, and by- some of 'the
judges, to deserve the palm. But it must
be difficult for award judges to please alt
on such ,occasions.

proved in every respect a perfect success, •

WRY GREATEST AND 13EST-We See
some envious mortals Ciltject.to the Chien-
go & North Western Railway being called
the greatest and best line in the country.
What means greatest? Is it more. length
of line, miles operated and business trans- ,
ported? What meaturbest? Every and
knows the reply. That this line is great
est, a few facts will demonstrate.—lt op
earates neatly twenty-oue hundred miles
of road (2,0'18 to be exact) and reaches
nearly every important point in Northern
Illinois, in Wisconbin, iu Northern Mich
igan, in lowa, Minnesota, and rums,many
lines into Dakota. What otlier line be
gins to traverse so -many States?—None
Not one.
A road 500 miles iu length is a long
one. A thousand miles makes a great
line. Whit, then, should be said of one
2;loomileii long?—Just think of it—lf it
was laid eastward from New- ,York it
would reach more than two-thircis.of the
way across the Atlantic Ocean, or from
the pine -clad of ISlaina to the sunny
shorts of the GMf of Mexico.—Great iS it
not ? Thou for a moment look at its bus-
uess. ' It carries 'billions (think of what
millions Mean) of pa'asengirs a year, to
say nothing of the silver and iron, , and
lead, and lumber, and cattle and hogs,
and thousands on thousands of car loads
of wheat, and corn; and oats, and horses, I

kinds of freight that is grown or Used or

starting point. Westward, in nearly an
air line, you will trace its
.California line
until you' reach the Missouri I River. at
Councilßhins, opposite Omaha—hers is
a single run of nearly 500 miles. Back to
Chicago again you look North-west, and
folloW another of its routes through Mad
ison, the Capitol of Wisconsin, through
the pin - e woods of that whole State and
into' Minnesota, and on
.to St. Paul a4l
Minneapolis this is 4011 miles • more.
Again poking from ,Chicago you can trace
a- line through Sparta, !Wisconsin, La
Crosse, in the same State r [Winona, Owa

North-westward far intol :Dakota-L-here
we have 62$ miles mono of road. Again
coming to Chicago we see' two lines run

also to Fond du Lac,l thence 'North

another from Clinton, lowa, to Anamosa,

have many abort spans to traverse before
we have found out all of the Chicago l &

• Is it any wonder, then, that this line is
called the Great Western Trunk Line? So
far ahead of anything else is it in-the way

WEST WYSOL—On the morning of the
23d inst., we (including ourself and better
hell) made a tour by private ednveyance
to the nortea.stern part Of the county. Af
ter leaving the Wysox fists, and reaching
the summit' f the bill, we halted a little
time to view the 'Y valley which liks sh
smooth and level along the. Susquehanna
river. The . beautiful farms and farm
houges, K it h now and thewa church edi
fice to be seen Justin distance, reminds
one that the.farmers do not neglect to
contribute freely of their substance to the
suppOrt of the Gospel, as well as beauti
tying their own homes. We passed' on
over the hills and through the valleys
finding large farms and well-to-do farm
ers on either"side of the road, with now.
afid then a woods-reserved for wood and
timber. - At CaMptowis we* reached the
Wyaltusing creek ; along which as we pass
• t
ed itp tbeicrioked stream wonotieed with
a - good deal.of interest, not only the good
farm* and buildings, but the; old-fashion
ad denerted honsee which 'no - doubt had
been occupied by families of at least three
or four generations. They were one and
a halrstorles high, 'with large stone chitii
neys and small windows, and built dole
to the ground. Them buildings remind us
of the clays when our grandmother homed
tallow candles, - carded" wool by - hand, ope
rated tie - spinning wheel, wove in- the
old-fashkoned teem, and rooked her babies
in asap - .rough.-
We continued our parsley up 'the
stream until we reached the large farm
and residenoe of H. B. Van Gelder, Bsg.•
who,years ago was stage proprietor of the
'route between Towanda and Montrose.
' Somehow ho bas managed 'to pick up
piles of stamps, and has become the own
er of one of the best farms in the vallei.
Here we stopped,' and were 'warmly greet
ed and made welcome grata of his house.
By the Way he is not a, bard-shell Demo
mut, judging from the two newspapers
we- found on his table—the New-York
Timis and BRAPORD REPonren, which he
called two very excellent papers. After
' enjoying `two Sumptuous meals and a
good bed, the following morning our host
conveyed us with a good rig , to Leßays
title, a distance of five miles.. Here we
found a pleasant village, inhabited by a
friendly and hospitable- people, and sur
rounded by a country which they have a
right to be proud of. After aplease" nt
chat with a few of the inhabitants, we re
turned to Stevensville, on Wyelnaing
creek, where -we, together with several
friends enjoyed' a splendid dinner with
Mrs. W. C. Bonnows=s-the husband be
ing absent. By the wpy, !dr. Bonnows
and brother are doing the\husiness of the
place. They deal in dry-pods, have a
grist mill 'in operation days and night,
ral enjoy, the reputation \of being
prompt and reliable business Men. Dia
ller over, with a good, deal of reluctance
we bid our friends adieu, and departed for
'
home which we reached. about ni sr. at.,
well pleased with people and countriever
which 'We passed. • • - \ -
We found the prospects for the Republi
can ticket good. Only one Greenbacket
seen on the trip, and he looked as though
be could do a better business catching
tad-poles than fish. Be said : BEE.
citEn MORGAN was elected Sheriff, the
people would have all the greenbacks
they wanted." He did 'not know that
JitkaEPH was running on the same, ticket.
We told him for gracious sake, the most
vote fer JOSEPIi too.
Thenervices of oar young friend, Bonn
RIDo WAY, have been secured to teach our
district school the coming winter. Mr. R.
is well qualified for the task, and ,with the
co-operation of parents, will conduct, a
live and prosperous-school.
