SAYS the Burlington correspondent of
the Elmira Adrertiser of Monday last :
" The moulding machine of 11. 0. Don-
MAN, the contractor for making the brick
for the poor house buildings has arrived,
and Mr. Donates will proceed at once-to
making .brick. Said machine i ls a late in

of moulding twenty-five thousand bricks
per day. It is hoped after the long delay
in getting the machine that Mr. DointAtt

County Commissioners successfully. Mr.
Superintendent BRINK will be ready to
use the brick as soon as made.
Tint Tunkbannock Republican is in
favor of the Towanda Depot being located
at the east end of the River Bridge road
way, and the editor. expresses himself
thereon thusly : •
" By all means let the natter be agi
tated. There is a striking inconsistency
in carrying passengers two miles above
town, to make them ride back in a hack.
If the public convenience is to be conSidl
ered the trains should stop at the bridge,
more particularly now that the toll is
abolished. The hackman, of course,
would not approve of it. The increase in
custom would. we believe, :much, more
than pay the company for the trouble and
expense. Send your petition down this
way, gentlemen."
IT Ts always.the beit policy to patron
ize home industry, even if you have to
pay rather .more for your purchases at
home than abroaff; but where you can
buy your gixsis at home and get them
cheaper and, better than elewhere, it is
doubly to ope's interest to do so. This is
true in Bookbinding as in everything else.
The REPORTEIt Bookbindery is one of the
oldest establishments in this p,art of the
country, and the prices charged are as
low as good work can be done for. Peo
ple who have books to bind should, bear
this fact in mind and bring their .work
here, in preference to giving it to'irre
spunsible traveling agents who offer to
do work at any price to secure it, and
make up the low price in the
_quality of
the work done. .
THE Concert for the benefit of the
Franklin Fire Company, given at Marc=
Hall on Wednesday evening last, was an
excellent one, but the attendance was not
as large as it should have been. We un
derstand the receipts and expenses were
about equal. Those who took part in the'
entertainment fully sustained the a3puta-.
tion that bad preceded them, as being
masietans and vocalists of high acquire
ments. Whilst the singing of Mrs. (Ita
sca and the violin solos by Prof. &sera-
EIOFF were the leading features in the
entire programme, the songs by the Arlon
Quartette and the piano solos of Miss
Pamirs. were delightful, and elicited
hearty encores. It is the wish of all pres
ent that the entertainment may be repeat
ed at art early date.
Now that the season has arrived when
a great deal of Sunday afternoon prome
nading will be indulged in, a word of cau
tion, given in a spirit of kindness, may
not be amiss. Riverside Cemetery is too
solemn ' a place to be used as a common
resort for spooay lovers, boisterous chil
dren or vulgar young men. All who enter
the portals of that silent "city of the
dead,"
. sheuld remember that they, are
treading upon hallowed soil—ground that
has ott and repeatedly been bathed with
the tears of bereaved ones weeping over
departed friends and loved relatives. Let
them remember, too, that every thought
less act perpetrated or 'harsh word spoken
within its sacred confines, is a disrespect
shown to the dead and a flagrant insult
to the living.
ANDREWS' 13Amin FQR JERE is a superb
nninber, rich in illustration, sparkling in
literary matter and 1 erfect as a fashion
journal. All ladies are interested in the
styles. While the costumes illustrated in
ANDREWS' 13AzAit are in the best French
and American modes,, the aim of the pub
lisher seems to avoid extremes, and to
give only those styles which are sensible,
if we may use the term, so that those who
follow the fashions as expounded in his
great journal will be well, yet not fussily,
dressed. The children will be "just car
ried away" with the story of "The Hap
py Family." In short, all those popular
and pleasing things which go to make up
a good family paper are well presented in
ANDREWS' BAZAR. Ladies should send
_loe. for a sample copy to W. It. ANDREws,
Publisher. Tribune Building, New York.
IT seems to be pretty well settled that
we are to have a depot at the eastern end
of the roadway leading to the wagon
bridge. Hon. Josiwn PowELL, N. N.
BETTS,_ Col. J. F. MEANS, J. G. PArror,
E. C..GRIDLEY, E. T. Fox and GEDIWE
STEVENS, who were appointed by our cit
izens to present the petition to Superin
tendent .PaeriEn,• asking for a depot
there, were in consultation with Mr.
PACKER and Engineer STEADMAN, oil
Monday, and afterward visited the pro- .
posed site of the building„ and it is said
the ground was "staked out" whereon
the building is to be erected. That the
building of a depot at that point will be a
great convenience to the traveling public,
and materially • increase the business of
our village, there is no room for doubt,
and that it will inure to the benefit of
the Railroad Company, is beyond a ques
tion.
ME 'Troy Gazette gives the following
particulars of the'burning of the, dwelling
house of Mrs. WELLIAns near that place
on the llth inst., a brief menticto of which
appeared in the Itzrou'rEit last week :
"While the faniily Of Mrs. Samuel
Williams, who lives oni the Ambrose
Murray place, in Troy township, were :it
,
dinner oti Thursday last, they were
startled to find their kitchen all .on fire,
and _fanned by a vigorous breeze the
house was soon wrapped in flames. From
the house the flames spread to the barn.
which was soon a mass of fire s :mil flying
-cinders. The dry state of the ground
and of the .woods communicated the
flames to the woods,- and the 'neighbors
had to con i c an I fight the vigorously to
prevent its spreading. The house and
barn, which were not insured, were
totally consumed, and the fire extended'
to the edge of Van Horn's, Glen, and it
required some vigerous fighting to keep
the•fire from crossing the Glen and reach
ing the buildings-on the other side."
BuY YOUR FURNITURE. AT HOME.—
This to*n never possessed letter advan
tages jti the furniture line than at pres
ent. We have live men in the business,
whose rooms are, stocked with the best
and latest improved goods in the market.
They have in stock or can promptly fur
nish to order, anything in their line, from
the smallest arti - tle to the handsomest
parlor or bed room suit, at priceli fully as
low as those of the largest houses in the
cities. It lea mistaken idea that some
people :have, that they can buy from
wholes/le ity houses at great discount
below the prices paid to our dealers at
home.. There is no business which pro
tects its dealers more than furniture
houses, and it has been the universal ex
perience of parties in this town who
bought their furniture in the city, and
.tholight they had something 'better and
different from that known to our dealers,
that these dealers either had on hand or
in catalogue, which they invariably could
furnish for less than they paid elsewhere.
Buy your goods'athotne, save money and
at the same time give your neighbor a
chance to live.
THE editor of the Len aysville ildrertiser,
who was a juryman at the first week of
May Term, seems to have been very favor
ably impressed with- the way business is
disposed of in our county courts. Ilis
last week's paper con•ained the following :
" Last week we answered to the call of
Ti ticket as Jnior at ToWanda for a few I
days. The weather was dry and warm,
andk the notty.cases to be ventilated, to
gether with the confinement, pushed us
nearly to the wall. Being a stranger to
the Judge arid nearly all the members of
the bar, as well as those in attendance,
gave us ample time to deliberate outside
of social greeting. All the eases which
camel before the Judge were ably handled
by the attorneys—who, by the way, are
not behind in legal talent and ability
members of the bar in other places of
larger size. The .Judge; P. D. Monaow,
' tilled his position admirably. • No time
I was allowed -to run to waste, and every.
witness -was promptly called and dis
patched from the witness stand, and the
lawyers were pushed through in their re
spective cases during each Fesaiont All
questions wore readily answered and ex
plained by the Judge.- It would Scent as
though he might get a - little mixed at
times, as the various legal business' was
rushed upon him by the different lawyerit,
but sornehow.he was always ready for the
.emergence- His chat ge to the jury was
also plain and comprehensive, and at the
same time was delivered in a pleasant and
decided manner. Few Judges of our
quaintauc° are so well qualified for the
bench as the one of which we speak.
Reader ' it is nothing to be a juror at
court, hut to he a, gootfone'requires a
perFou of good mind, onprejudiced, and
willing. to decide a case in accordance
-with the evidence
.honestly given. With
a jury of twelve men, there is more or
less difference of °Pinion. which at times
is hard tozi reconcile l and amicably adjust.
On the whole, the cages were well dis
posed of."
THE CONTEST IN DECLAMATION.
The Prize Declamation Contest, by
Students of .the Susquehanna Collegiate
Institute, came off at Mercur Hall on
Friday evening last, and the following I
named young gentlemen took part there-.

FARMERS AND ITHE CENSUS.
Farmers should keep in mind that they
will be called upon ; during the coming
June by the Census enumerator to give an
account of the products of their farms. A
circular has been set out by the depart
ment requesting farmers to estimate their
crops from the year, commencing Juno
Ist; 1879. Farmers ,who ; give accurate
anti thoroggh information of this kind,
will nut only show their patriotism, but
will do something that will be a vast ben
.efit to . others.

DEATH OF J. D. MONTANYE.
The death of Josm'n D. Moretaritrg ,
occurred Tuesday morning aboht ono
olclock. He bad been failing for some
timb, but last week his weakness so in- •
creased that 'he was obliged: to betake
himself to his bed, where, tenderly watch- '
ed and -cared for, ho sank .swiftly and
gently into the arms of death. With a
Christian's good hope, be bore his suffer
ings patiently, and met death calmly. Ills
end was peace.
Yore born,' than the dew is shed,
Or cloud la floated overhead,
' "Ile giveth his beloved sleep: ,
Mr., MONTANYE was born in. Union,
Broome county, N. Y., November 12th, -
1802, and consequently was nearly 78
years old. He came of French stock, as
the ;name shows, though the branch of
the family to which ho ?elonged removed
from Holland to New lork, in the person
(probably) of one JOHANNIDIE , DA MON
TAONF., somewhere between 4636 and
1638. This family occupied honorable
positions in Church and State during tbb
Dutch and early colonial periods of Nei ,
York. Mr. MONTANYE came to Towanda
in 1826, tp clerk in the establishment of
the late GORDEN HEWITT; and from that
time untilrlB7B he was without cessation
engaged in the mercantile business. A
few years lifter settling in Towandh,
be became 'associated with the late N. N.
BETTS, and the firm of BETTS iS,7 MON
TANVE c l arried on, for years a large and
successful trade. :After the dissolution of
.this partnership, Mr. MONTANYE aSsOdi-:
ated with hire -"lds brother, ELIJAH D.
MONTANYE ; 'and after the death of t 4
latter, he carried on'the -business in • con
nection with his youngest son, L. DI
MONr.kNYS, until his retirement in the
spring of I'B7B.
It is only tr"e find just to say that,
during this half century of active business .
life, Mr. MoNTaNvE maintained a,spotless
name. Throughout - the entire county.
the uttnn,t contidynce.was reposed in his
word and character. The troubles inci
dent to severe industrial prostration af
fected him very hemiily, but through no
fault of his . own. And he bore them hon-
orably, as his past life led every Jobe to
expect. No breath of suspicion rests upon
his motives or his conduct. Instead, the
warm sympathies of the whole community
were with him in his rOtirement and; old
age, and their ropect followed him to the
grave,
Mr. MONTANYE was a man of decide
ability,'not only in that particular line I,o'
whicu he dedicated his life, but in other
directionii of mental ability. He had
inborn literary: taste, and beguiled' his
leisure with the Solace of books. Ile de 7
quire& extensive information, and • was
gifted with. rare conversational powers.
Übe strong taste for reading remained tb
the 'last ; . and when his eyes became dim•
and his natural strength abated, so that
he could read no longer, be felt with BA
CON that the sweetest canticle is "inc,N
ditnittis."
It w-uld,'perhaps, be the most fitting
epitaph for his tomb : " Here lies a Chris
tian gentleman l" For nearly - forty years
Mr. MoNTANvE was a nninber of the
Presbyterian Church of Tawanda ; and
before the time of his union with the
church, he earnestly supported and ac
tively assisted her in all her interests and
trials. He was one of the few remaining
illastiatit us of the old type of gentlerneo:
urbane and dignified in his deportment
punctilious in his intercourse with o' hers;
with a voice ana mariner as gentle as a
woman's. The increasing weight-of in
firmity banished hien for the last two
years almost wholly 'from our streets, ! , o
that we grown accustomed to miss
his erect bearing and,conrteons salutation;
but long years must pass before those who
knew him can fail to remember the form
and face of the ievered old man..
Gee by one Towanda is losing those
hoary heads, which-in the ways of right
eousness have so honored her.
..Mr. MoN:.
TANYE is almost the' last of the early citi
zens of the town. His long-time associates
and friends—lSAAC MYER, N. BErrs,
\VsL WATKINS and EDWARD OVEMTON—
have preceded him by a few years to the
fulness of joys at God's right hand. It
will be a great,thing, for Towanda if the
future shall ripen successive generations
of such noble. old men as the last decade
has borne beyond our mortal sight.

—Thos. P. Wingate, of. Wellsboro,
crier of the Tioga county courts, was ter
ribly- and dangerously gored by a bull on
Thursday afternoon last. Mr. W. was
attending to his.stock, and he went into
the stable to lead his bull out to water.
While unhitching the animal and before
he • had secured the ring in tlie - bull's
nose, the animal hooked him in the fleshy
part. of the thigh, inflicting a terrible
wound. The beast then caught Mr..Win
gate under the arm and tossed him into
the manger, which fortunate circumstance
no doubt saved the man's life,
for the
bull could not reach him there. Mr. Win
gate succeeded in getting out' of the stable
and.part way to the house, when his fam
ily came to his- assistance. Dr. W.' W.
Webb came to his assistance, and. the
wounded man is in a fair way. to recover,•

got his goods in the house when the tire.
fiend came stalking through the woods,
and -at. night the man had neither house

—A correspondent of the .Elmira Ga
zette writing from Factoryville, gives the
following account of the forest tires rag
ing- in that vicinity : "On the west side
of Shepard creek there are several miles
of continuous forest, which extends to
West Hill, overlooking, Wavetly on the
north. Everything is very dry, and the
woods are like a tinder box. , There has
been a-heavy gale from the north since
Wediessday morning, which blew a fire
from the burning log and stump heaps into
the woods in spite of all precaution, and
the woods have been burning foriniles and
are still afire, taking everythiug in its
path. It extends from back: of A. B.
Reniffs, about -eight miles Mirth orlieres
and all the way di,wn, and now I can se
it advancing on West Hill. It broke out
•in three ',lazes along this line, four, five,
and eight miles, about the same time, and
burns to where the other began, which
makeS a contiOlous fire of eight miles o 1.
know of only one house burning, but there
are rumors_l_if more. David Springer'i
house up "Miller.ltur burned, with the
contents,- 6'cept sonic bedding, which
was saved. Much damage has been dome
to fences, wood,- 'bark, &c., and some
bridges -were burned. An- immense cloud
of smoke filled the valley and hills for
miles, and the tire would catch from
stump to stump, across lots for half a mile.
