IT was remarked that a larger number of peo
ple were here on Thursday last, to attend Den
Stone's Menagerie and Circus, than has been in
town on such an occasion for years, and the
general opinion is that It was a number one af
fair. That rare animal, the African Eland, the
only ono over In this vicinity. and claimed to be
Mho only one in America, was pronounced
worthy alone the price of admission. The un
equalled feats of horseback riding performed by
the lriqouis Indian, was a marvel indeed, and
together with the unpromdented and daring
manner in which rile Cordelia, performed up
on an unsaddled and even unbridled steed, elic
ited great applause. Wo noticed that the "first
families" of our town, and also the Clergy were
well represented, and at this writing no report
of a shock upon their -morals" has come to our
knowledge, even in the Montrose Republizan.
We are inclined to think that the farmers and
their families, that do not possess the opportu-•
Miles of visiting the great cities, to attend Op
eras, Theatres, and other "model artist" estab-
I ihment, with the more fAsti•lieus and favored
town people, are entitled to seek a holiday of
this kind, and enjoy the recreation of seeing the
"animals." and not be compelled even to shut
their eyes or the circus part. There Is no law
to prevent this, and we are not clear as to the
propriety of enacting one.
Ronan 'ar ItEspr Fire Company., celebrated
their Twenty-fifth Anniveriary at their rooms
on Wednesday evening last, June 4th. Chief
among the attractions, and also the pride of the
Company, was an exhibition in the Ci urt
Rouse of a new and elegant Hose Carriage,
which was built at the shop of Melhuish Bros.,
in this Bore., and which cost $l2OO. Refresh
ments were served at the Engine Rouse, and
our noted Cornet Band, and the Choral Assn.
elation furnished music and song for the °ma %
shim. Liberal donations were made towards
defraying the expenses of the Hose Carriage.—
Generous remittances were received front former
members of the company, not now residents of
the borough, as follows: From Robert Simp
son, esq., and Frank A. Deans, of Wellsborn;
Alfred Hand,esq., of Scranton; George Bentley.
ell., of Honesdale; Henry Warner, of Chicago;
Addison Watrous, of Waverly, N.Y. t Charles
Birclutrd, of Binghamton; and Anson D.Birch
artl, of Hyde Park.
Report says that "stirring spece:ies" were
made in the Court House upon the oemtion.—
The adjective stirring may be applied in a vary-
Mg sense, either as stirring up pride, personal
strife, jealousy, and heart burning's. or infusing
- Ito the minds and actions of men that manly
strife for noble emulation, which as It excels
does nut seek to depress the virtues of othem.
The first being narrow and deleterious,the latter,
broad and enobling in its effects. We have bad
aline practical expenence in fire depattments
in other localities, and without any application
here, but merely as a caution, we say that in
such knowledge we learned that at best, suffi
cient jealousy would nrise in human weakness
between companies themselves, without any
outside influence to fan its flames. We hope
to see that all who take upon themselves
the onerous task of guarding our homes and
property from the ravages of the relentless
flames, 'hall receive alike the good will and as
sistance of our citizens, 'irrespective of station
or calling, and that all insidious strife and class
jealousy may he frowned down by them. I.ct
us only encourage the one and only true rum
lotion, which engenders a desire in each mem
ber of the fire department, to Imitate or excel
the good example of his neighbor in praise.
worthy devils, with no desire to disparage or
depress his fame. This is a simple duty to our
seleu, and impartial jurtiee to the members of
the fire department, both high and low, rich or
poor, or as members of whatever company.

Local Enterprise.
Do you know what it morns? It is just this :
If you can think of any thing that can be done
to beautify or build up your village, go and do
it; don't fight the laying down of a new side
walk because you have to pay your share of the
expense; keep your capital at borne; patronize
home industries; help your own merchants to
sell more, so that they can sell cheaper; always
get your work done in your own town if poss.
Wt. If you follow these suggestions,and if your
village does not improve and build up, it will
not be your fatilL
Protection or Cemeteries
Among the acts passed by the Legislature was
one conferring pope powers on persons en
trusted with the care of cemeteries, and as this
is the time when flowers and shrubbery usually
suffers from the depredation of vandals we pub
lish the law for the benefit of the despoilers:
"It shall be lawful for the trustees, directors or
other officers of all organized cemeteries within
this State, to appoint as many day and night
watchmen of their grounds as they may deem
expedient ; and such Watchmen, and also all of
their superintendentsordeners,and agents,sto•
tioned on such grounds, are hereby authorized
to take and subscribe before any mayororitudice
of the peace in the township where such anneter
lea may be situated, an oath of office, almiLsr to
the oath required by !swot constables; and upon
the taiting,of such oath, such watchmen, super
intendents, gardners, and agents shall have, ex
ercise and possess all powers of police officers
within and adjacent to said cemetery grounds;
and they, and each of theta, shall have power
to arrest, ort view, all persona engaged In viola
ting the laws of this State In reference to the
protection, cam and preservation of cemeteries,
and of the trees, shrubbery, structures and
adornments therein, and to bring such persons
so offending before a mayor or justice of the
pestle within such township, to be dealt with
according to law."

Stealing U. U. Ticket!' not Larceny.
Oliver Mallaby, charged with stealing Rail
road tickets from the P. & E. R. R. Company
at Wistar Station, was called for trial at this
May term of Court, It. T. Beardsley, Esq., fur
tile prosecution. The prisoner had no counsel,
and A. F. Ryon was appointed by the Court to
take charge of the case. Two of the tickets
stolen were from Wistar to Lovell. The prose
cution was commenced and three or four railway
employees anti a policeman were examined to
provn that the prisoner admitted to them that
he had stolen the tickets, and here the prose.
cution rested. Then the attorney for defendant
moved the Court to quash the Indictment on
the ground that stealing railroad tickets was
not larceny either according to the statute law
of the State, nor according to the common law.
'The Court sustained the position taken by Mr.
Ryon, n nolle prosequi was ordered to be en
tered and the prisoner was discharerd.—Clin

It will no doubt nstonish most of our renders

country Is growing rapidly, end fast assuming a

of American cheese in the English market Is

Confirmation Services.
On Friday, May 21d. the Sky. Dr. Howe,
Bishop of Central Pennsylvania, made his first
visit to the Mission of the Episcopal Church In
this place. A meeting of the leading or busi
ness tnembers of the Society was held at the
residence of Mr. Itohert Wallace, where the
Bishop was introduced to them, and business
matters cnneerning the church were freely and
satisfactorily discussed. Through the kindness
and courtesy of Mr. Wallace, evening services
were held in Mechanic's hall, and, after an elo
quent and practical discourse by the trollop on
the words, •"Who toncheth me." from St. Mark,
sth, 31st, the order of Confirmation was nt.min

already members of the Episcopal Church, it is
much to be hoped will form n permanent and
prosperous Church, and with and' a minister as

be no excuse for failing. The Bishop's charge
was much remarked for its simplicity, forcible

A Good Moro.
Some years ago the Legislature of New York
passed a law requiring that physicians' and
druggists formulas should be written in English.
The measure met with p, poi!' r incionement,for
it struck the average mind that If a man; wo
man or child was to be killed or cured by drags
it was meet that they should know tba means
of their taking off or salvation in current ver
nacular, instead of having it covered up in the
dead languages, The Legislature of Michigan
has recently taken a step in the same direction,
and enacted a law calculated to greatly benefit
the people—so Gtr as druggists compounds are
concerned. It has provided that hereafter,
druggists and doctors who fail to write or print
upon the label of each bottle or paper ontsin
ing poison the most easily obtainable antidote
for the same, shall be subject to a very severe
penalty. The object of the enactment Is to pre
vent the "excitement" which must always occur
if some household innocent "accidentally"
swallows something nicely prepared for rata.

can be procured from the nearest druggistwith-

might be, but it is practical, however, and there
Is little doubt of its being found to work welt
Death in a thousand shapes, lurks around the

In a short time we will bo enjoying all the
delicacies of Sumner—strawberries and mos

Registered Postal ILUirds.
The'Post Office Department has ruled that
postal cards may be registered upon the prepay

"What Can We Dn."
A eormspontlent of the Montrose RepaWcan
overflows with patriotic reverence, as follows
"The dead 'rest from their labors, and their
works do follow them: but who remembers
with gratitude due our living soldiers. Such we
meet daily, on our streets. Is it the true senti
ment of true hearts, as the c': list band is ex.
tended. We acre you a debt we can never repay.
What can we do for you and yours?"
We eau answer the above query in one par
ticular. There is one debt we can pay fur the
money Ls in the bank, and reported to be "on
Interest," to pay it, and that (sin expending the

are only bound by the "cole of honor." Talk

Pictures to Blind Eyes.
A sightless race is a perpetual prayer. The
appeal is not for light so much as it is for the
exercise and gratification of the other senses
that have been stimulated to a keener con
sciousness by the loss of one. Yet the expres
sion Is always mild and prayerful, while the
blank eye halls are turned within for answer.—
To one who has looked upon the beautiful
world they are atilt tilled with the light-of mem
ories. On that narrow stage of existence a cur.
I
tali bras fallen, hiding the footlights and the re
sponsive human laces, but there is still light be
hind the scenes. A preparation for blindness is
even more solemn than preparation for death.
It is like taking the veil with the pleasures of
the world all around In doubly closer contact
to touch, and taste, and bearing, and perfume
and infinitely removed from sight. Everything
is plunged in a dark gulf, where all but light 19
fearfully near, and there is no light anywhere.
In sunshine and in shadow, in joy and grief, in
laughter and in wail, in silence and in thunder,
summer and winter, day and night, the mute
prayer goes on forever. •
A brilliant and beautiful lady of Covington,
Kentucky, lately prepared for a stroke of Wine
ness."; Her physician made an examination of
her eyes, and discovered a fatal failing in the
optic nerve. The doctor felt It his duty to tell
her that her eyesight could not last but a few
days at the farthest, and total darkness might
fall upon her at any moment. The world was
fresh and young to her and the most delightful
of Its pictures were the faces of her two bewai
-1 fld children. The mother returned toiler bright
home and made such arrangements as would be
likely to occur to one about to commence so
dark a journey as she bad before her. film felt
1 1 the vail falling, and had her two children dress

were brought before her in a parlor where the
light streamed and the mirrors glanced,and with
their little faces lifted to her, and tears 'gather.

scarcely understood, the light faded out of the
mother's eye. Who.bnt the blind can realize

so. Thera is a good demand for speculative
