One day last week a female belonging to a band of Gypsies encamped at the Forrest House, near Easton, was caught in the act of mrryieg off a five year old daughter of Edward Clark, of that place. The child was caught up in the street and carried some distance, when its cries attracted the attention of some pass ers-by, who went in pursuit -of the old hag, when the child was let Own and. the woman made good her escape. Erie Doable Track, The Erie Railway Company haw advertised lot proposals foi grading forty-two miles ef Sop road preparatory to laying a second track. The portions of the road to be double tracked are as follows : From Lukewarm AO Narrowahurg, eleven and a halt miles; from Lordvilic to Han-. rod, ten and a half m 114; ' and from Attlesi to' Lancaster, twenty milts. ...The work will be di- sided into sections of about a utile each: 'Con tractors will be req4red to complete the work, within ninety days from the awarding or, the contract. , rob,ionlpol.

Sam Welton. who was convicted for stealing from tee Erie Railway company, at Susquehan na Depot, last Court, and sentenced to three years solitary confinement In the State Peniten. tiary, is thus spoken of by the Repository and Mt...roger, N. V .: "Sam Welton's career has been short and somewhat zhequered. Leis than fkll years old, of rather prepossessing manner (when sober) he was quite well calculated to deceive the unsus pecting whom he intended to victimize. For several years he was engaged extentively in op erating upon die credulity of western ambitious citizens, of all classes, not excepting even the clergy, who were desirous of becoming sudden. Iv wealthy. One of the dodges practiced by :Welton was to inclose in a well written letter a new, genuine twenty-five cent government is sue as a sample of the "counterfeit," manuflic tured by his firm,and sold by Min. at a very rea sonable rate. This letter was to be treated as strictly confidential, and the victim was advised to show the sample to expert bankers,abd oth ers, a'ho could not detect it Rom the genuine "stuff" is.stted by thegovernment. Each person was told In this letter where to address Mr. "John Tice," Seneca Falls, Auburn, and other points selected, the amount of "queer" they de. sired to invest In. The victim was soon baited, took the book, sent the greenbacks, and no an swer nr counterfeit money was ever reeieved in return. \Vc have been told that several of our aspiring citizens have been taken hi by this same kind of dodge, but mute by the saw-dust swindle." Another "Iterlew." Our neighbor of the Susquehanna takes the following notice of that "biort aphis work" of the Montrose Rept/Mom, o bleu we advertised last week, which we consider a mer iturious stricture. We hold with the Journal, that a county paper should not be confined to the interests of Montrose, or the Republican or Democratic party in its defense, or advocacy of its issues, and by our fruits we are ready to be judged. The Journal says: "We were very much surprised to find the following square confessionie the last issue ot the rowdy paper: *Quite an important issue, not long ago, was the question of a division of the county, or the establishment of another county seat in this county. Is it nverrumry to ask our readers to compare the position and influence of the Iwo Montrose patstms on that question I' It is not to, much to say that the Repolliean published four times no much as the Democrat did against the movement, an.: to which paper the advocates of the measures attributed jto defeat - let them say.' Cominent is quite 'unnecessary:People in this tier of townships will doubtless show their ap preciation at the services rendered by the ''county" organ in a practical manner. We hare yet to learn that the people of this section ever asked tar a "diciaion of the county." Fur a paper professing to be an organ of Lim Coun ty. the fight for the interests of Montrose and its immediate vicinity, and against the plain rights ot, the voters of goodly - portion ot the county, was In very bad taste and far from cred- A iscd/ paper Is esTmeted to advocate and de fend the interests of the town where it is pub lished ; a eminly paper should know no section, treating all alike nod fairly. Let the warlike or pm hereafter style itself ar ifortersee paper—to call itself a County papeils a bald pretention, and too stale, about as much so as its motto, "Freedom and Right against slavery and Wrong." which was spoiled by Lincoln's Email- Cipation Proclamation:" Why People are Poor. Gait Hamilton" says that "in a country like this poverty Is presumption of defect." We copy from one of her articles in the Independ ent, as follows : "What With hinder any man from earning his own living? Illness may come: sudden calami ty may falL Against these even energy may be powerless; but, apart from this, it is to be as stoned that be who failsis because he lacks wis dom and not opportunity. And the same wolfs ,ness which prevented him from grasping,.x,- opportunity prevents him from keeping h .fer it after it is put into Lis band. Once in a w once in a great while, a timely succor avails a moment of temporary weariless or averts In. the consequence of a mistake, and the man starts ahead at a swinging pace. But oftener the results seem to indicate that ft is of very lit tle aye to help people who cannot help them selves. The kingdom of pauperism is within Ahem. The very causes that make them poor keep them poor. It is not that society bears down ban: upon them. It is that they are self. Indulgent. If you see a widow and five child ren shivering_over a few embers you pity them, and you must send them coal; but you cannot helpfccling a wrathful.,contempt at knowing that they all wept to the photographers yester day and had their pictures taken, utter buying a couple of twentptive cent broches, on the way, to adorn themselves withal. The very things that you yourself would hesitate to do on ac count of the eapenie, people who are partially dependent on your charity will do without hes itation. Where you, still .practice a natural, cheerful and unthinklng:self.denial, they will practice an equally cheerful and unthinking seltdndnlgeoce. The remnants of bread that' you dry in the ovens and--save for future use they throw away. The frag mentary seat-sleeve that you fashion into a flat iron holier they put into the rag bag, and buy new cloth for their holder. 'There you rise at six, they Its till half past seven. Where you walk, they ride, Where you pray and watch and strive to doyour work thoroughly, thyme content with einytjaing that will answer. That is the reason why people are poor." Necessity of is Market. We often have heard inour own borough, es well as other inland towns, much complaint by those engaged in trade and commerce, that farmers in the surrounding vicinity, whose pat ronage in trade naturally belongs to those local centres is much of It given to towns and cities like Scranton and Binghamton and many have interposed this as on Objection to public ttior oughfares passing through these towns on nc count of their tendency to divert trade and ' "kill the town." New we make this assertion, "though the heavens fall" that If the life of any town depends upon its isolation from the world and the Inability of Its inhabitants to leave it, then its life Is not Worth saving. Such a boxtrap baited with this very old and musty ' cheese of past days will not serve to entrap the young facetious ruts ot the present day. They will travel around It and land mole, wholesome food for the developement of their business ca pacity. We also present nnothei hypothesis which may be deemed bold and almost hereti cal to the mercantile fraternity, but neverthe less we must be allowed to lend our advice to them as well as to their customers when we do it in honesty of purpose and for their benefit, and our readers will only accept it so far as it meets reason and common sense, and hence they should accept or reject on the same basis and no harm can be dale. Commercial busi ness alone will never build up a town. All merchants and vendors of goods are mere agents for the Agricultural and Manufacturing interests, a needed number of which the peo ple wtll demand and support and ate willing to pay a good per centage to them for "corn mission," but a town wholly dependent upon trade for its growth will thrive about as well as a water-mill a mile and a quarter from wa ter. The merchant adds no wealth, In bulk, to the community. but he is merely paid his "com mission" for transacting the business of the manufacturer and producer, and the responsi bility of keeping on band needed wares and merchandize. The great secret of mercantile failure in many towns is this. If a certain num ber of merchants who are alway necessary to the convenience of any community, start laud ncss and seem to prosper, there are a large number of others lusting for their case and comfort, who rush to the same torsions, until the supply is very much gaoler than the de , mend, hence the life and death struggle, and a personal warfare upon each other, resulting of ten in ruinous failures, by which the communi ty as well as the individual sutlers. The ere:t un% who gave such diversity of feature and ca pacity to mankind, no two even the same, nev er intended that all should pursue the same oc cupation. It is no one occupation that can bseild up n town, but the grdater the diversity the more thrifty will it be. If when one branch of business is succeeding, parties desiring ' - get a living without work"—as the adage runs —would seek some other which would serve to aid those already started, as well as benefit themselves and the community about thetnthey would help to build tip such a town as all, the railways bi Christendom could not run down.— ; We can impart the secret to our mercantile friends which will give them control of this community, just to the extent they exercise it, and keep people from trading ip adjoining 'I towns, like Binghamton and Scranton. Slake our own town by its diversity of businissn.l acrommodation :In near like those towns as pos •thle, and just in that proportion yon will tak'r away all desire to go elsewhere. We are not now speaking of "marble fronts" or costly ' dwellings, but simply of the business meth of your community. To illustrate, we will take our own borough of Montrose. Our merchants cannot complain of the our rounding thrillers, who expect -hy Mile plow to . heroine they go to Scranton or Bing ham ton, to do considerable n, ti inertia I business. for this reason. Never during the noir years since we have become a resident of Montrose. has there been any market that the surrounding farmers could come to, and receive cash for their produce, as n certainty. Is it any wonder that they go where such markets exist, and when them, that they purchase Ureij grads! Is it not rather a wonder that they (1O - Mat do so inure than they (1.1? We make bold to s oy that I one of the most certain enterprises to build up this town, is the e,,tablishment of a cash mark et for evcrthing that is produced in the sur rounding country. There is plenty of room for ; a lucrative business in this branch of commerce, and the people will always find it for their own interest to leave their money at home, and they will be must ns willing to pay some lirino "com mission merchant" ten or fifteen per cent to han dle their produce, as to give it to New York or Binghamton agents. Everybody don't need to go into this business, but we want one good es tablishment of this kind. if there is an over plus of mercantile establishments let the capital be withdrawn front some one of them, and an establishment of this kind started. Or let some of those who "grind the face of the poor" and fetter the agricultural prosperity of the county by "curb-stone" butchery-, come out from their "dark holes" and engage in a legitimate calling, one that will draw upon them the respect of so ciety and of themselves, and more solid ivealth, than to wear out their boots, and shrivel up their souls (if they have any) in travelling to and from the Prothonatarfs office, "seeking whom they may devour." You may attempt to fence in a town (yes and whitewash it at that,) by fighting public outlets or inlets, in order to keep trade in and bar cus tomers out, brit you will just as certainly fail so long as there aro those who want to get' in or need to gel out Let the people understand that there Ls no more "shows" to be seen abroad than there is at bunts, and they will not go away to be humbugged. Unless you do they will go, ondwc shall not attempt to prevent it.. Great Bend Items. "0! what a pleasant month is May, For the anon has gone away," .

So far as we understand the minds of the trustees, they do not fear truth, but do ask no departure from that righteous standard in what may be said or written coheerning this matter. It was well un derstood by all persons interested down to the time of the lecture, that the 8.

Over 2,900 rafts have passed over the Lacka waxen dam this spring. and at least one hun dyed more have gone down the river below that point.
