" On Tuesday morning last ourtorough
was considerably excited over the discpv
ery that the grocery and provision store
of Jenks Fennell . & Son, corner of parson
street and Railway avenue, the hardware
ro of Tripp ct Co., corner Of Troy and
Towanda streets, and the drug, store of
Mix & Whitman, Towanda street,l , were
burglariously entered by thieves on Mon
day night! between eleven and twelve
o'cloCk, and the tinnier drawers of these
establishments rifled of their &intents. It
is stipptosed.that the burgles—as there,
were certainly mote thtur elle—lfirst went
to the blacksmith shop of the Northern
71-
Central Railway Company, where they
entered and procured a file, eta., to assist
them in their work,• and then went to the
store of Finnell & Son, where they broke
one of the hoe ghat in the front door, :
by which they enteral, pried open the
- money drawers with the file, 'and procur
ed in nickle and pennies, about two dol..
lars. Nothing else seems to have been
disturbed. It is then thought they went
down to Troy street to the store of 'Tripp
& Co., where they also broke ono. of the
large glass in the frontdoor, entered, and
took four -penknives from a show case,
and fifty cents from the drawer. The
next place visited was Mix & Whitman's;
where they gained admission by breaking
a back 'windlow and , turning the ketch.
Rare they also rifled the money drawer,
procuring for their labor about one dollar
and fifty cents, and a package' of cigars.

Tuesday'and Wednesday of hist week
were indeed gala days for the citizens of
Sayre, as during those days the fair given_
by Ladies Aid Society was in full oPera
tine, and it was an affair of such magni
tude, and carried through with such com
plete success thatikMay well be a matter
of pride to those interested .and of envy
to neigboring towns.: Three large tents
were procured especially for this enter
tainment, and wergitched on the squire
directly in front_ of Mr. PACKER'S. Of
these two were united, forming the din
ing and exhibition tents, and were very
tastefully decorated with flags and ever
greens. In the exhibition tent 'were ta
bles of fancy goeds, • fruits and flowers,
an art gallery of, no little merit, contain
ing works of some of the great masters.
In the dining tent could be procured at .
moderate
_prices such a repast as has ital
ready made the ladies of Sayre noted in
such matters. The third and largest tent
was used each evening for the exhibition
of feats of -Legerdemain, and seldom do .
we see a better 'perfoimanco than was
giventhere by Mr. MEArts. wring the
.first-day balloon ascensions, flights of car
rier pigeons were given at intervals, and
on the second day the fain was visited by
a prOce'ssion &mined of the Waverly, Ath
ensand Sayre fire. companies and bands,
and the Franklin Guards of Athens. 'lhe
total receipts were nearly seven hundred
dollars, and that it was such a grand suc
cess, was 'due ,chiefly to the generosity
and efforts of Mr. and Mrs. PACKER, sec
onded by able and willing assistance of all
interested..

the products of the orchards and vine=
yards, tOO much praise cannot be given,
while the exhibit ormachinery and farm

At 3:30 - r. It., after hardly half an bout!
of intermission, - Mercur Hall was throng

Dit.nwtx ~Tb,e programme for 'this
second entertainteent of the afternoon con
sisted of au address by Professor' WIL
LIAM BANTER OWES, class of '6B of the
Institute, and '7l of Lafayette College ;.a
narrative or the founding of the Institute
by Rev. SAMUEL F. COLT, its first princi
pal; and a;historical sketeh i by.E. L. 1111.-
us, Esq., r instructor.
-The

-The central thought of Professor
OWEN'S address was the need of cultured
men in every department of life. Ile
proved, by statistics, that the leaders in
science and
,politics, the men of broad and
liberal views,' are not "self-made," but
are those who have laid the foundation' of.
future eminence at the preparatory school
and the'college. The man may forget his
Greek or Latin, ho may-be unable; ta-de
monstrate the simplest mpthematical
truth, but the modes of thought induced,
the_ power to concentrate all his energies,
can•never be taken away.- Ili a liberal
culture we are enabled to' stvarate our
selves froni• the sordid pursuits of the
world, and to gain a higher appreciation
of the good and ~;the beautiful. In our
opinion Prosessor'Owmes address was as
an intellectual treat, similes is rarely giv
en to a Tevrandkaudience.
Rev. SAMUEL F. COLT followed, and
spoke touchingly of the period of his
connection with the Institute. He paid a
high tribute to his associates in the first
Neat) , ; besides giving an account inter
esting to all, and new to nearly all pres
ent, of the actual construction of the In :
stituto building, the many delays, and the
earnest, untiring effort which fully math-
ed in success.
Mr. E. L. limits, in a historical sketch,
gave many interesting statistics.. The to
tal number of students isnbout 1,830, and
-the number" of instructors hasbeen about
eighty. Hy some accident the . largest
number of students present in any' school
year was stated to be two hntidred .and
'eleven. The records of Professor E. E.
Qntlit.)x, the - present principal, show an
attendance of two hundred and thirty
four during 'one year. Mr. limas read
also, one of the original programmes of
the opening' exercises 4f the Institute,
September 1854. Many interesting and
some amusing occurrences were revived
by the history.
An hour later, at six ;O'clock, Mercui
Hall was again thronged.. The earl corn
ers, and many of those arriving later, par
took of the refreshments providedrin the
side room.
Order was - re-establis6cd at eight
o'clock ; and, with Mr. JAMES MACFAR•
LANE in the chair as toast master,. the
real entertainment of the evening began.
:The Susq - nehannit Collegiate! institute - was
first proposed:. Without Waiting for any
preliminary clinking of glasses, Dr.
fvreifiiiiv ?psi, to respond. Ile preferred
to'speakinainly of the board of trustees.
In high la rms of praise he recounted the
noble, persistent labors of the „oldest two
"members—MlLLEß" Fox . and A: \Vtcx-
SIAM. The board of Trustees has ever.
been faithful to its charge, and deserves
unstinted honor.
"dill. Other - Alma, Maters'" brought
out Rev. Dr. 'CATTEI4., of Lafayette. lie.
•was. Pleased to be'itg,aitt in Towanda, and
to shoW his appreCiatiOn of the work 'Of
the Institute. Many young men of merit
had it sent to Lafayette. To one of its
graduates, Professor I;;4arc, ho gave even
higher praise, and paid a willing tribute
to his superior qualities as a
. scholar and
a gentleman. 'Referring to Mr. HALO!
response, he expressed it . as: his opinion
also that the secondary schools should 'be
liberally endowed...
To the sentiment, "Our Stepmother,
'the Presbytery of Lackawanna," the Rev.
Mr. WEr.tns, of Kingston, responded.
He has a high regard for stepmothers,
and regret* that the' bear so ill a reputa
tion. Our own stepmother, to whom ref
erence has been made, pas but recently
shown her true ad noble 1 instincts by
advising all young men to abstain from
the use of tobacco.

in plesaant recollections of bis foriner asso

gentlernatily qualities of Mr. IdcWit.-

Artie nobleness of Mr. Conuax, were ably
portrayed. -
" The Ladies, our First, Last and Best
Friends," was responded to by D'A.
Orr-mos, Esq. As u preface to what he
was"about to say, Mr. OVERTON spoke of
the faithfulness and persistent labors of

FRED E. WILCOX. the' young man

of week before last, by being struck in
'the groin by a board, died from his inju

B. Viritcox, in North Towanda, on Wed
nesday afternoon last.. Ho was about .•2i
years of age, and 'had the. reputation of
'being a very exemplary young men. His
funeral took place Friday morning, and
was attended by Franklin No. 1; of which
i'''comirianilie was an active 'and respected
memher.
IN • MEMORIAM
At a called meeting of Franklin Engine
company, No. 1, held in their. parlor Fri
day morning, the following minute, wAs
ordered spread upon the records' of the
company, and a copy furnished to the
family of the deceased brother :
We have learned with profound sorrow
of tie death of our brother fireman, F. E:,
Wilcox, who had been a member of this
company for five years. His-death was
the result of . an accident sustained while
in the pursuit of his chosen calling. and
we desire to place upon our minutes some ,
token of our sincere grief at the loss of
one in his early, vigorous manhood, who
was an earnest, faithful and efficient liret ,
' man; a dutiful 56n, and an industrions,
useful citizen.
While we are again reminded by . this
dispensation of Providence that "in the
midst of life we are in death," let us re-_
member-that as every true fireman should
have his uniform in order Ind be ready to
attend the summons to duty at a
mo
ment's call, so should we always be pre
pared for the journey to "that 12aurne
from whi4li no traveler ever returns. "
Tho highest. tribute we can accord to
the memory of our decease.l brother is to
,strive to emulate his good examples, and
by a faithful devotion to the interest of
our company to which: he was ever loyal
and faithful.
