Many people arie.old-fashioned, and curi
ous enough to ask what use there is in
passing au appropriation bill, if there is
no adequate provision made to furnish
the money to pay it. Would it not be a

Sayre, March 80, 1880.
AN accident to the wagon in which he
and a companion were journeying north
ward, on Sunday last, necessitated the so
journing of one of our compositors In the
village of Sheshequih some four hours.
- How forcibly liras brought ,to his mind
the truthfulness. of the saying "that there
is no small kiss without some great gain,"
can °WTI* realized by those who have
enjoyed ibe hospitality of Mr. and Mrs.
Rutz ,soup, C. Runoun, as did he on this occasion.
'Twas not enough that he and his com
panion, should be invited . within the
cheerful home, but delicious viands were
quickly set before • them and ;they—eat ;
and the horse even was made to partake,
of the hospitality—in the barn—and all
without , " money and without price." .
A short visit to Athens one day, recent
ly, leads us to believe that HisTo* is
about right when he says in his last ifia
zette that " no point on the Lehigh Valley
Railroad . is progressing more vapidly in
enterprise and population than Athens.
Lots of new stores are already up and
ready for occupancy, and more are already
on the way. Soon. Athens and Sayre will
meet and shake hands; and invite Waverly
to unite with the City of the Plain.'
Men excavating, and digging, and carting

THERE is now building in Newburg, on
the Hudson, a steam pleasure yacht for
Mr. ROBERT A. PACKER, of the Lehigh
Valley Hailrod4, which when completed.
will be the largest, fleetest and most ele
gant pleasure craft hereabouts. The boat
is to be seventy-three feet keel and as
wide as it can be built and pass. through
the locks, Its engine is to be exceedingly
powerful, the•contractots guaranteeing a
rate of speed of not leks than fourteen
knots an hour. The vessel throughout
will be• a model of elegance, speed and
comfort. !The saloon will be arranged so
as to afford accommodations for twelve
guests night or day. The berths will be
bUilt after the fashion of those in use on
sleeping cars; and during the day can be
folded up, leaving the interior of the
yaeht roomy and more attractive.. We
understand • it is Mr. PACKER'S intention
to keep his splendid yacht on Cayuga

in making ills annual summer excursions

agreed to have the yacht finished and

THE North American Review for April.
has for its leading article a paper enti
tled : " McCua.r.t.ss's Last Service to the
Republic," which covers the whole peri
od of McCi.ELLAN's military career. from
the flank movement to the James to the
battle of Antietam. It is intended to' yin
dicate the General against the charge
that he was over-cautious and -unnemsa
rily slow in his movements, and contains
mady statements of an interesting char
acter. Sir FRANCA litNess contributes
a paper on the " Relations . of Canada
With the United States." - The 'author's
principle object is to show that the re
cently enacted Canada Tariff is not au
act of retaliation against the United
States for their refusal to establish the
•reciprocal free trade between the two
countries in products that are natural to
both. Canada, he says, is desirous of re
newing the reciprocal treaty, and is rea
dy to' concede all reasonable demands.

by Rev. H. B. TICOXEL. The happy pair
took train 4 for Elmira, en route forklLe

any tree or plant ; any metal, any science or art,
or almost any matter whatever, you will find the
A3IERICAN CYCLOPF.II IPt always ready to

on all subjects.
The valtie of atyclopedis in a convenient form,
to satisfy any little doubt or to learn and acquire

and discussion, Is inestimable. When children
have free access to the pages of a Cyclopedia, they

being written by a specialist at the head of his

Dear Sir,-Sinre I subscrtiwd with you for the.

have received. I can get the whole of the Ameri
can at once and have It to use. while it.will be fire
years before I can.get - the whole 2t volumes of Itrl
reptiles at the rate they are now being published.
I canporafford to he deprived of the use of a Cc
,..isblia for that length. of time. The scientific
articles in the, Brilannica are exhaustive—so much
so that their length crowds nut many subjects in
welch I am interest:it, especially Amerlcitt topic-.
Firing written for English people, it has a natural
leaning toward that which _will please the peopie
for wltan It was Written, even to the exclusion of
many things In which we Americans are Interest
