around it. The right cheek was _badly

Editor VAN GELDEIT, of the . Leßays
ville .Adre,rtiser, visited the Poor Mouse
recently, and in his paper of las*wack
speaks as "follOws .of the buildings and
their §urrouniiings :
"As we drove up to the front of the
large and cheerful looking buildings
which had been erected for the home of
the peen-, a feeling of gratitude came over
us as we recalled the great interest taken.
in 'humanity here exhibited in money•
generously spent to provide such an ett
ceqent home for those who cannot care.
for themselves. More 'than this, it is
pleasant to know that oursountyl is corn
posed•of a clasr; of people who by their
votes have tart ample provision to care
for their poor,- equal, if not quite as well
as a majority of the families who pay
taxes to support it. • •
"On entering the premises, we • met
our old friends, Allen Keyes and S. 'W.
Moserip, the master ,workmen upon the.
buildings, _ also Commissioner Daniel
Bradford, Whii has given the construction
of the building his personal 'supervision.
After a night's rest and a good breakfast
in the morning we were shOwn through.
the building •hy Commissioner Daniel
Bradford: We, found all the apartments
well arranged,r.ineat and convenient for
the purpose designed. •We found every
room well ventilatekand supplied with
Water from a reservoir in the building
above. The main building is three - sto
'es high and ia 4400 Let rind is well ar
ranged -ands tyeeupied by the overseers.
The north wing -is . 441006, with a wide
ball running the, whole length and seated,
With sleeping rooms 'on either side. In
-these rooms are single beds resting -on
iron bedsteads: . Bath rooms are also con
nected wad-are-frequently . used by the in
mates—hence the cleanliness of their, per
sonsand the rooms they Occupy. The
east wing is 44x87, and is similarly ar
ranged and occupied by the females. In
this department a day school is kept for
the-instruction of the children. The base
ment is used in the different departments
•as follows kitchen, dining-room, milk,
vegetables, coal, storage, etc. - There is
also a stnalt drug store connected with
the institution for the benefit of the ("eon-.
pants. In the rear of the - main. buildings
is the one constructed for the insane: It
is neat, substantially built and well ar
ranged, and is being enclosed by high
substantial intim) to prevent the s escipe of
the inmates..
t'; Bi/eass,
- , President.
AN ; EDITOR'S OPINION.
The number of persons received up to
list Friday was ninety-three. We are
told that many of the inmates on ehter
ing the institution are compelled to do so •
on the Baptist'plan by being thoroughly
immersed, purified -and supplied with a
clean rObe which properly fits them for
admission to their new home. Mr. U. M.
Ferguson, the Overseer, is evidently the
right man in-the right place. He is kind
to the inmates, and prompt in_ caring for:
the wants of each. More thanthis,every.
room in the building is =dully' 'ookeff
and kept neat and clean, and the. table
fare is good and wholesome,. and. every
thing bears the appearance of a'well reg
ulated home for the county poor.
The, building of. a large - barn for the
accommodation of_the farm prodecti
seems to be quite necenuiry to complete
the property in all its appointments.
When built the people of our 'county can
justly feel proud of -this "institution,".
for we ,venture the . assertion that its
equal, all things considered, can't be beat •
.in.the State. It has all-the modern int
provenients, is, substantially built, well
lightekand has a cheerful and pleasant
appearance in every department. Much
'credit is due our Commissioners-who have
hadcharge from the beginning •and who
have exhibited suchy good taste and judg
ment in the • whole affair.- Mr. Daniel
Bradford, the Western . Coinmissioner, as
a reward of merit, should certainly:be-re
elected for another term, and we have•no
fears bet that-he will be,- as •his name is
proininently mentioned everywhere."

TO -TRAVEL. -
'Mr. !Wow Plasma - , who lives' near
Wyalusing, Pa., who has been visiting in
Elmira with his SOD, Mr. WESLEY FRA-
Win,. returns home to-day. The first
time Mr. FRASIER came to Elmira was in
1832,• when he passed through on horse
back, en rout toe Big Flats, where was in
hiding a man wanted iu Bradford county
who had skipped his bail bond and who
was indicted for stealing: Mr. Fitsszart,
says that Elmira was not much of a city
fifty, years ago,' 'While as for Horseheads,
a few persons in the settlement, wore just ,
kettiag nicely settled at. farming. Mr.
FesstEn has done a good deal of rafting
down the , Susquehanna river, and he
stated . yesterday that in 1838 ho and a
companion, after having, rafted
. it from.
Wyalusing to Philadelphia, walked. back
the entire dirtance, in foul days, two
hundred miles. • There was only one
stage hue, which, in the =lumber SIMON
could not accommodate all ,the returning
