that the railroad shops at Sayre are pro

feet square at the base, and seventy-five
feet high. The walls of the engine house
are up to their full height. The boiler is
being, made at Wilkes-Barre, and the en

with fr-10 additional, in an inside packet
pOcket of his coat. Ile then went through
Laketreet to HOCK Brothers' store, and
_ •
thet4ito the Erie depot. Having occa
sion to use some of the money, he put his
hand in his pocket, when he found it was .
not there. An examination showed that
instead of placing pie bills iu his pocket,
as he had suppOsed, he had put them in
a hole in the lining of his coat and they
had gradually worked down and .out of
another hole in the lining. Although the
money must have fallen upon the side
walk and been. picked up . by some one,
nothing has been heard of it since.

about midnight, the new office nf Dr. S.

WELSH l SANDS' Mammoth Circus and

last Iklonday, and notwithstanding the
rain- i sterm which compelled them to move
their tent to higher ground, and the'
almost impassable condition of the roads,
the tents at night were pretty well filleii
with people who bad been induced to
come by the universally acknowledged
superiority of ''this circus and menagerie.
The menagerie numbered among its col

exhibited on the continent. The arenic

this difficult feat, together with ttliers
equally as surprising, were performed
with an ease and agility which proves
that the artists'in WELSH it Balms' cir

the menagerie ; the series of - brilliant
acrobatic feats in the circus, and the
courteous and gentlemanly conduct of

this show the most desirable .place of

IC. OF H. PICNIC.
The Knightis of Honor Pic-Nisi it
ter, on Wednesday of hot Week, was
quite birgely attended, notwithstanding
the heary-rain of this night previotts," asul
'the threatening weather in the morning
of the day undoubtedly kept many from
participating in the enjoimenta of the' oc
erasion. A special train left this plice at
about eight o'clock A. m., bearing about
one hundred persons;_accompassied by the
Germania Band, and arrived at Ulster at
little before nine. Disembarking at the
depot, the pic-nicers marched.to McCar
ty's Grove, headed by the band, who along
the route treated the citizens - of Uls
ter to some . excellent music. Arrived at
the Grope : delegations from oth‘letowiis
were found there waiting to welchme•the
"pilgrims" from Towanda. Through
the foresight of Ulster Lodge, seats am
ply sufficient to accommodate all, -had
been arranged in the grove, a commodi
ous stand erected for the use of the band,_
swings put up, and many other things for
the comfort, pleasure and convenience of
the gathering carefully attended to. As
soon as the Towandians arrived, the fes
tivities, so to speak, "broke mit," and
all proceeded to enjoy themielves as taste
or fancy dictated. At 'shout noon, the.
baskets—of 'which there were many, and
all of them "heavy 'laden,''.—were open
ed, and the happy throng, for an hour or
more, proceeded to discuss their contents
in a manner that proved that tbey con
tained much that was good, and that the
appetites of the happy throng had , not
been injured by the forenoon's enjoy
ment. After discussing the viands re
marks were made by Kt.. MATTHEW
Kinsen, of Elmira., and a member of
Crystal Lodge, of this place, which were
listened to with close attention. Mr.
Music's is an eloquent, forcible speaker,
and thoroughly versed•in the history and
workings of the Order of Knights of. Hon
or. The festivities were kept up until
about five o'clock r. at., when the happy
party wended their way homeward, all
uniting in voting the day one of rare en;
joyment, free from an accident of any
kind to mar it. Delegations were pres
ent from Waverly, Sayre, Athens, Tunk
hannock, Monroe, Smithfield, Dushore,
Orwell, Rome, Burlington, and Towanda,
while the citizen of Ulster turned out in
a body to participate in the enjoyments
of the occasion, and to extend a right
royal welcome to the visitors. The
Knights along the line of the Railroad
iie
sire to return their thariks to Assistaqt
Superintendent GoonsfAN for favors
shown them, in the matter of the running
of extra trains, and the stopping of 'all
train's at Ulster-on foe day in question,
and it was by a . unanimous vote of all
'who went up from Towanda, that it was
decided that the R.% & N. Y. Railroad
IA managed by a corps of the tallest awl
most obliging officers of any road iu the
country„.. _ -
PEACF AND HARMONY!
Our 'Democratic friendti having failed
in their that attempt at organizing a HAN-
COCK and "Pz'oustt Club in this place, de-
tided, after mature deliberation and much
canvassing„ to make another attempt.
Wednesday evening last was the time set
apart for the meeting of the "unterritled,"
and the Court house was the placo fixed
as the. rendezvous. At about 7:30 the bell
pealed forth The announcement that the
doors were open, and about half a dozen
of the {'faithful" wended their - way to
the Court Room, where they sat for a
half hour , gazing at One another and into
the dreary w•aste of empty seats. , Then
some one suggested 'that the bell be again
rung. Which was done. .This brought
in about twenty more „persons—mostly
Republicans. Then thOre was another
season of " intense silence," lasting for'
some fifteen minutes,' durimeivbich Col.
31.F.ANs gazed at the classic features of
Col. MASON, and Col. M.AsoN's eyes KIM-
ed to be studying the . arehiteetura
beauties of the northeast corner of the
room—near the ceiling—whilst the play
of his countenance led one to suppose
that his mind was busy with a retrospect
rot' the past. When the silence had again
become oppressive, the janitor was once
more interviewed and - requested to again
cause the bell to fend forth its peals.
And again it pealed,. and with better suc
cess than either time before, for nearly
enough persons answered its invitation to
about half fill the septa in the Court
Room, At this pointlCol. AtKaks took
the chair and announced tha the meeting
. •
mould now come to order, whereupon
HARRY WARD arose and nominated T. R.
JORDAN for President of the club. Mr.
JonnAx at once arose and requested that
his name be withdrawn, and supplement
ed his request . by making a motion that
the meeting adjourn until the ensuing
Tuesday evening: -HARRY WARD second
ed Mr. JORDAN'S motion. The chair de::
tided the motion out of order, Mr. Jon
pm; appealed from the decision of the
chair, and stated that his reasons for
making the motion to adjourn were that
the " proceedings of this meeting, to
gether with the officers of the club about
to be formed, had already been printed
in the Arnica." That the whole matter
smacked of a " and he was op
posed now, as be over had been, to " po-
Utica' rings." The chair decided the
appeal of Mr. JORDAN out of order, and
said the only thing in order was the re
port of the Committees appointed at the
previous meeting. llArmy- WARD at
tempted to make a few remarks at this
point, but - the chairman ordered him to
take his seat. Mr. LITTLE then got up
to read the report of the Committee on
Constitution and By-Laws. Mr. Jonnex
again insisted that the meeting should
vote on his appeal from thedecision'of
the chair in regard to , the motion to ad
journ. The chair again decided the ap
peal out, of order. Whereupon Mr. JOH ! .
DAN picked up his hat and strode out of
the meeting.
Mr. LITTLE then read the Constitution
and By-Laws for the government of the
club, which.wero adopted.
Mr. G.' F. MASON presented the report
of. Committee to *seilect officers .for-the
club as follows :

At the conclusion of the reading of gee

ed if nominations were in order, and
nominated Col. T. R. JORDAN for Presi

woods." - It is alio Well-known that the
Colonel has, had 'experience , on "the
stump," speaking for each and all of the
political parties that have ilmsrished, - or
hail a temporary. existence duringthe_ ,
years of his manhood. And so, when we
inform our readers that the Colonel's
effort on this Occasion consisted of about
the usual number of ;stories ; about the
usual number ofarida-statements of dates ;
about the usual amount of vituperation
and "rend throwinge' we have given a
fair idea of the gentleman's ."great en- .
deavor." . His allusion to one of our
'rising young attorneys, and his Milos
comparison in that allusion, was entirely
uncalled for and out of plarie, even in a po
litical harangue. In poiot of ability, in
knowlidge of .the history of the country,
and of the parties who have, and who
spek to govern- it, lir., ,HALL stands far
above the Colonel in , every respect. At
the conclusion of Col. Siurn's remarks,
au invitation was given to those who de
siredlo joi6 the club to attach their
names to "the roll, when the audience
quickly dispersed. It was a delightful
meeting for Republicans, 'but furnished
no enjoyment for our Democratic tads,
yet proved how futile is the atte pt to
unite the IVALLAci, and ItAxnALL fac
tions in this neighborhood. ,
POLE RAISING AT SAE
. Our Democratic friends in Sayre and
vicinity had made arrangements to have a
big "blow out" at Sayre, on Saturday
last in the shape of a pole raising and
mass meeting. The polo was raised very
successfully, but the mass meeting part
of the programme turned out a complete
fizzle. A correspondent of the Elmira
Advert:far, who was present, says that
"Two hrass bands furnishid the enthusi
818111 asql Col. ELTIANAN SMITH, of To
wanda, Ivas the principal eulogizer of the
Democratic nominees, and arraigned the
Republican • party. The crowd was not
large, nor overly enthusiastic, and was
composed of a good many Republicans.
If our Democratic friends are satisfied to
call it a success in our opinion the opposi
tion has little to fear from Sayre in No
vember. The speech of Col. R. A. PACK-.
Flt, we understand, was by far.the ablest
effort and very sensible."
THE EUREKA STILL AHEAD
In a-trial sprung upon the Eureka. on
the farm of WILLIAM KUYEENDALL, in
Windham, Bradfoid. County, Pa., by
PERRY WILBER, agent for the Champion,
in the presence of several prominent
farmers, the Eureka showed itself master
of the situation, and was pronounced by
all the farmers present far superior to the
Champion in all the qualities'w.hich make
a mower valuable; The Eureka was read
ily purchased by Mr. KUYEENDALL on
the spot. The . Eureka was, drawn by a
team which had never worked it bef9re.
The Champion agent used his own team.
'l'he farmers are rapidly learning that
hay can be' secured twenty per •cent.
cheaper with the Eureka than any side
cut mower.

A shocking .and very sad accident oc
curred last Tuesday evening near our vil
lage. As JAMES GREY, a lad of about 14
years, accompanied by his mother and
little sister, were returning home from
A. B. Bunn's, where they bad been on
business, the horse became unmanageable,
owing to a wheel giving away, and ran
down the steep hill east of Mr. SMITH'S
house. The boy, was thrown out, his
clothing caught in the wheel andgearing,
and he was whirled around several times,
his bead striking the ground, completely
scalping him. His back was broken in
two or three places, and when the body
was found. it was so disfigured . as to be
scarcely recognizable. . .Mrs. GREY and
the little girl were thrown out, each re
ceiving seyere bruises but no serious inju
ries.
The band boys have about completed
arrangements for their new instruments.
The I. 0. G. T. festival last Saturday
evening was well attended, and the re
ceipts will pay all expenses, leaving some
funds in the treasury.

all his instruments, A te., were destroyed'.
As the store was near the Baptist church
that edifice must have been in imminent

SMITHFIELD.,
Thinking that Smithfield should beim ,
tieed in your most valuable Paper, and
that you as learned editors should have a
fatherly care over us—knowing that we
occupy a entail portion of. God's footstool,
and that we are a people susceptible, to
error ; but taken as a class, we endeavor
to do right and vote for GARFIELD. .
A GARFIELD and ARTHUR Club was
organized on Tuesday evening last by
electing GEORGE T. Bt:Acit its President,
MALY 'Ticker and WALTER Putcyes
Vice-Presidents. J. L. VHCCIENT Secreta
ry and W. F. "%romans Treaturer. The
night was very rainy, so there were only
a few iu attendance ; still, the Club - was
organized with 34 names. Our next .
meeting willihe•held Friday evening next
(July:lth), when we expect spelikicig by
0. D. litNxEir, Esq., of Towanda. All
are invitee to attend. Meet at the Acad
emy pall.
As it has been the custom with the Dis-,
ciples of this place to visit their pastor on
every' Fourth of :July and have a picnic
dinner, therefore, the brethren and friends
of Elder JAMES G. ESSELL met at his
house, or under the trees in his yard, and
enjoyed a very pleasant visit. The time
was occupied in eating, visiting, and lis
tening to vocal and instrumental music,
the last of which was furnished by the
Harper's Ferry Band, led by Mr. CHARLES
Prime& Much praise is due them.
Yesterday (Sunday), as our people were
assembled at their respective churches,
their peace and harmony was somewhat
disturbed by a drunken affray in our
streets. 'lt is hoped than such disturbance
will not be repeated, for it does nut sound
well for a temperance village like ours,
where no liquors are scild.
I 'have much more of interest to give
you, but will wait until another time.
