NOT A BRIGHT PICTURE.
'The Athens Gazette of last Saturday
contained the two following itemst
"There see some very bad boys in
town. It is irery welt known that, our
streets are snot made' brilliant these that,
nights with -the electric light, and the
boys take •advantaga tif it by placing
scantling across the sidewalk, and then
hang around the corner in Wait for some
tired. out homeward bound . person t , who.
is coy apt to get a severe - fall.through
their devilishness. They are. the parties
-ho have been in the habit of . cutting
their _names on store windows.
" Last Monday, instead of being a day
of fasting and prayer, was quite the re
verse with some. They turned it into a
gala day, and spent it .in drinking-and
fighting, and when night came • made it
fairly hideous with their yells-and drunk
en demonstrations. It looks rather
strange, too, right in a Christian commu
nity, where there are officers too numer
ous to mention, that such things should
be allowed.. To the credit of the town,
we may add, most if not all the disturb
ances were. caused. .by parties who had
spent most of the day in Waverly."-

Bradford County, Pa., gathered at their
residence," the old 'homestead of ELIAS
VAtrons, deceased, on Saturday, Septem
ber 24, 1881, for a pleasant surprise and
family visit. Mr. and Mrs. V. contem
plate a long visit in the West_ and thin
was to remind them during their 'absence
that many friends with warm hearts bid
them good by r e and hopefullyawait their
return.. The company numbered nearly
aeventy-five among whom were four
brothers, ELIAS, JOllll, JAMES C. and En.
WARD VAUGHN ; Rev: NEWTON BAILEES
and wife, and many others whom we
would like to mention but have not the
space. The whole thing was a complete
surprise, but the ladies of the company
had not forgotten to provide for the " in
ner man" and we soon sat down to a ta
ble spread "royally." The - table 'igroan
ed" under the "substantials of life" and
the "dainties of the season." After din
ner a familiar conversation took place
much of course of which had a bearing on
the life and death of President GARFIELD,
and the crime of COMEAU came in, for its
full share of righteous indignation.' The
people were called together, and in 'behalf
of a few near relatives, J. 11. WEsTort pre
sented to the host and hostess, as a alight
testimonial; a very pretty present in the
shape of silver ware. After which pray
er was Offered and "My Itedeeniei" and
gileulali Land" and other pieces were
sung. Miss Axon; .Bonwofrrit, the ac
complished organist of Spring Hill, play
ed the organ. Miss LizztE ICEStatn, of
Wyalusing, kindly consented to give two
recitations which she accomplished with
remarkably good effect, bringing tears to
the eyes of most of the company, showing
that she is ,at home on the platform.
Soon after the party prepared for their
homes satisfied that it was good to be
there. , t
PLEASANT SURPRISE.
These family and neighborly gatherings

Missed the excellent displays 'made at
ptevioas fairs by the merchants of this

the early part of the week, in consequence
of the death of the President, and the
time which was- necessarily occupied on
the Monday previous to the opening of
the Fair, by the funeral obsequies of the
lamented dead; accounts for their exhib,

THE STOCK DEPARTMENT.
Last year we snggested, as we did the
previous year, the propriety of placing
on the card attached to each animal in
this department, the..naine of its - owner.
The Managers did not accept our idea as
a good one; and we are therefore compelled
to omit mentioning the names of exhibi
tors in this department; - because we
would not - wish to 'make speCial mention
of those whose names we.were able to oh
tail), while the animals exhibited by' par;
ties - Whose names we could not obtain,
were equally tis deserving of special no
-tie?. - We refer to this department, there
fore, as.being a grand, goOd. exhibition in
several particulars, a great many fine
horses, cattle, sheep and swine being:en
tered. The number Of entries, perhaps,
was'not as large as last year, but the
county was represented better, and an
improvement in the character Of ,the -en
tries was observable, some very fine
horses being pr sent that it would be dif
ficult to_ excel anywhere. Of, cattle, a
'lumber of finely bred short-horns, Dui
hams, Alderneys, Jeirseys and cross
grades-were-exhibited, and great interest
was manifest in this Class by the farmers,
their good and bad points being subjects
of general discussion. It is quite evident
;hat a greater interest in the breeding of.
better stock has hein created by the re
cent county fairs; and that a great revo
lution in this respect is now going on.
There were a number of -very fine swine
presented, and it is quite evident that the
thin grass, breeds are bound to give place
to other* not more expensive but far more
profitable. The exhibit of -sheep was
quite limited in comparison with last
year f although there Were several 'very
tine Ones On the grounds.
Several Parties exhibited some very ex
cellent makes of both . heavy 'and light
wagons, open and top buggies, - which at
tracted much attention , and were closely
examined. 0( churns, creamers and re
frigerators them was -ft goodly number,
and they were.all; the best—Arone believ
ed the gentswho had them in charge.
At Ono o'clock on Friday there-was a
great cavaleado;fif the live stock on the
grounds 'around the race course, Which
was a very inieresting'exhibition of it
self, as in the procession there was some
of the finest stock in the state.
The attepdariTx un Thursday andirri
day Was very large .' It was estimated-by
competent judges that : on ThtirSday af
noon there . 14re at least 5,000 people
present, and on Friday nearly if not quite
4,000. Frequently during the last two
days, the Wysox Cornet Band treated
