'matters pertaining to the good of the re
giment: This was its second meeting.
There were present eighteen commission

and offered the first toast of the evening
—" The Ninth Regiment and its .ofli
cers," which was responded to in a short
and grabeful speech by Colonel G. N.

themselves highly pleased with their en
tertainment and visit to Towanda, took
the train for home at 10:48. The place
of the next meeting of the Association is
not yet settled upon, though it will . pro
bably be held at ‘Vilkes-Barre.

ATHENS NOTES
EDITOR REPORTER :—Since my last, no
events of a startling character have trans..
pired. and Athens continues to prosper.
any new buildino are in process of
construction, awl many more will be
erected during the spring and summer, of
which we will speak more fully when
completed:
Our physicians, though-numerous, have
been kept very. busy the past few weeks,
many cases of sickness from changeable
weather, etc., occurring. Comparatively
few deaths occur.
The teachers of this vicinity have or
ganized an institute, and meet at tfie
school building—the session last Saturday
proving it a success. Mr..Awritun llgan
is President, Mr. HARRY' GREEN Vice
President, Mr. W. A. PLUMMER Secreta
ry, and Miss Hosp. Cioi.nsmrru, Assistant
Secretary. As . a means of keeping up
'with the times and assisting each other,
we itnow of nothing so beneficial to teach
ers at the same cost.
An attempt to start a revival - meeting
last week in one of our churches, was a
lamentable failure, and caused much un
desirable comment. Those who profess
to be governed by the spirit of Hiin who
created worlds, should remember that a
manifestation of an evil temper !smog the.
way to advance the cause of Christianity.
The latter sentence will apply to other
places as well, and we venture the opin-
ion that 'a closer inspiction and practice
of the confession of faith contained in
most churches, would lead people to see
that' their pledges bind them to,
dwell together, and not cast reproach
upon the cause they profess to have so
mar at heart.
The Presbyterian Society will soon
commence the erection of a new edifice
upon the site of the one destroyed. The
new building will be larger than the old one,
and an ornament to the town. The Meth
odists are taking measures. to secure a
parsonage, so we are informed, but have
not learned its location.
The Gazette estimates the Population of
this place at two thousand. It is very
likely a liberal estimate, but ,when ive
Consider the number of available candi
dates we have for auy available .odicei
and the drones in the hive, there ought
to be even more.
Though ThtmiT may not be the first
choice for President, with all, yet should
he be nominated, few of his party would
forget his services at Vicksburg, and all
along the line.
We are indebted to those who staritel
the cry of Emperor, for a by-word at
least:
l'rofessor BENEDICT spent his val ation
at his home his mother being very sick.
Mr. N. F. WALKEN has returned home
from Michigan, where he has been teacu
ing the past Winter and visiting relatidns.
Considerable real estate is changing
hands in our vicinity this spring, without
the nic - I of a sheriff. A very good indica
tion of prosperity. '

ULSTER. f
EDITOR- Bs poRTEII :—Since writing our
last much of interest has transpired. We
have two Lodges, the I. - O. of O. T., and
K.. of 11.—the latter has recently been
started, and is said to have enlisted , many
of the best men we have in our communi
ty, arid - is very prosperous 1. g ood
work has; been done by the Church
and • others, which has materiallyi -
ed the ieligions and moral tone of the vil
lage, and it May , be said "we aro pro
gressing." .Many are striving to !make
their crooked 'paths straight, which fact
rejoices the heal tS of their friends and all
good people.
Times are a litte easielt, but we notice
-it only from an agricultural stand point,
yet generally when the farmer prospers
then all classes prosper,
the unsettled and
combinated condition of WHIR to
be an •expeption this time, as all are not
receiving the benefit of the "boom." 4
I large portion of our tobacco growers have
their last year's siplily on hand yet, and
are expecting larger prices. There were
perhaps thirty-live acres of tobacco raised
here last year, averaging from 1,400 to
2,100 ; pounds per acre. The acreage, it
is said, mill be doubled this year; ROCK
WELL Brothers expect to plant twenty
acres. The only way to succeed in rais
ing tobacco is to make it a business;
great expense is incurred the first year,
after which come the profits ..f the grow
er. liNearly $l,OOO will have been reeciv
ed for last year's crop, and if prices f"
not Materially change $2,000
.will pro
bly 1M paid for this year's tobacco, wit
will be very largely profits. For this 1
•
itude, our river bottom 'lands are v
valuable for tobacco raising, and may,
made the Source of large revenues,
well as enhancing the value of land m,
ble of producing the slime. Tobacco rais
ing is something of an experiment in this
section and climate, 'which bids fair to
compete successfully with more Southern
sections of our Union. It must, however,
be remembered that no vegetable ex
hausts the soil so quickly as tobacCo, and
that it requires but few years of success
ive growth "to run down the land," even

Just who the teachers will be' for the
spring term hi.at present unknown. The
board have voted to give $3O per month
to the principal of Ulster graded school,
summer term—probably renewing 'the
heathenish 'practice of boarding around.
Lo, how the mighty have fallen ! Do
school boards of this county intend to
drive all the good talent out of it? or, is
good talent cheap? Schsol boards do not
reflect the wishes of any intelligent com
munity by hiring cheap, inefficient teach
ers. Pay your teachers, then let them be
supported by all whei are interested in
good schools, and you will not have any
cause to find fault witli your schools....
