If successful in this, Ills first ap pearance of the troupe in public, it will be the prelude locker entertainments of a similarand more intellesting nature. Arad yourselves of l this opportunity for a hearty laugh, before the "going out of the old year and the coining in of the new."—Republiron. John Locke, the renowned logician once said, - that he owed what little he knew, to not being afrdd to ask questions" This is exactly our P - wition in regard to our knowledge of the 3lootrose Railway. Our "work screw," though it may be objectionable to some parties, has terv e l to elicis the explanation of the Secretary which ap;,ors in our columns this week, and the only fault tee find with it is, that it was not pal f , rtit before. Tice benefits to liontrose there to set forth, are simply what we have laid be fore our people in the outset of the prrleet.and at this stage of the work has, in our estimation, sothing to do with the matter at issue. We have nothing to do with matters except as we find them now. As regards the promises of the company made last August, when they deman ded we say that the company said that unless the amount was raised, they would stop at "liaughwouu," and if j. was complied with, they could and would cpmplete it by the first of 2"Coveorkber. The fact that they did coutmence work, arse prism facia evidence that it wits complier] with, and we hold that they should hose met the contract, or stopped at !Tough- ' WOWS, as the ctara tifi pots, and thebarda_2°"l3 explanation was upon 049. ~ ___ says, "the whole cause of the grading not being finished, lies at the door of the stock subscrib ers." Now we ask, does this apply solely to the people of Montrose and vicinity, or have they not paid as much In proportion as the stock holders in Wyoming and along the line, where the road Is completed and where they are re ceiving Its benefits? Why do they not collect the Sill amount of tltetn,as they advertised they would do some time since? They have received the benefits as well of the money paid in from Montrose, as from the completion Of the road to their door. He says the •LV.It R. Com pany have done better than they agreed,by lay ing the rails before the whole grading was done. We think, If a single mil had not been lain until the grading was completed to Mont rose, it would have been done ere this, and the cars running to Montrose. Springville, Dim oak, and even Tunkhannock, would have been es much Interested as Montrose. We say that Montrose, under the circumstances, has the right to withhold the balance of her stock, un til the whole is paid by those who are now cit . - plying the benelits of the completion of the road. When that is done, the company will have a right to lay the blame at the door of Montrose, and not before. The question of in debtedness of the road so tenaciously adhered is by the L. V. Company, would be of more ef fect, were it not fur the fact that a mortgage al ready is upon the road (or the rolling stock, and we think it would not kill the road nor the stockholders, if the $15.000 due "Col. Macey," was lidded to it, until such tinio as the "panic" is over. We out forth these questions (torn the knowledge we have from our stand point, and will freely correct them if the company will set us right. We have more questions we might ask, and we may promulgate them hereafter. MMEE Ik.. J. M. fiterret. lOX a. m. and 7X r. m. .73i P. m. ... W. J. Jman .10.45 a. m. and 7.90 p. m Bet.

US county, or as it was called by one, 'The lit tle s6ter of the great Evangelical held its first session is the Freewill Bapt tst Church at Savory ('ornery, Jackson, on the 21111 and 2rd lust.

All are Invited. There will be three sessions each day. Let alienate expecting to feel at home. Come "praying." Our great uhject is one. Visitors trout others amities ore also invited. By order ut the meeting. Harford, Pa., Dec. 18th, 1873 held in October, a detailed report of the condi tion of its resources, was made by the Treasur er and Secretary, which resulted in the appoint ment of C. 31. Gere and others, to endeavor to obtain a settlement of both cow and old'stock, either in cash or notes, the result of this was to be reported within ten days. At the end of that time, the prospects looked so favorable, that it was decided to go on, and work up the road as far as the means to be obtained would pay for. As you well know, the whole country at about that - date, was thrown into a financial panic, the consequences of which, were to stop Ithe paying into the Treasury of any money, either on old stock or new, and when It came I time to furnish "Col. Marcey" with money, to I pay tar his October labOr, there was no fund in the Treasury with which to pay. Had it nut been for the fact, that there was a small fund arising from the net earnings of the road, he could not have paid on that,pay, day, As it was, there were a few men who had to goofl unpaid. CoL 31arcey then felt justified - in stopping' work. Thus,you will see, that the whole cause of the grading not being finished, lays at the I door of the atoms subscribers,who have not paid. Do you expect this board of directors, or "Col. ]heresy,'' to finish grading without' their being furnished with the rands to pay men? - This same financial crisis,above referred to, caused the rolling mill, that manufactures iron for this road to shut down, while' engaged in Its manufacture, hence the L. V. .R. R Co. could not supply it, if the grading were done.' But says one or more, the iron could have - lteco.Ob tallied months before: -Tiue,it could have - been; but I apprehend, the same partlei would have faulted the directOrS, if such ont•lay, months in advances of Its being - wanted, had leett.made, thereby putting a large _expente for - interest on the Treasury at the company. • . • In your issue of the 17th lust, you say "Montrose and vicinity have done their fltll share toWards the building and completion' of the road." 'us look over tilts, and see how that matteratands. • Previous to the commence ment of this enterprise, !`.llontrose and vicinl ty," by reasoo,.of the coostructionnt ralboads, had hecomelsolalad, and her bnaluesamaa rap idly decal/ins, so spark so that It was proverb. dal, everywhere, that Montrose was In her 114, dine, anti it was a common remark of harmers, "that It was no use to take produce to Montrose for they could not sell anything fur cash." Thls being the situation, 1 maintain that ''Montrose and vicinity" could well afford to incur the whole expense of the construction of the M R. R., as IP was becoming a question of life or death with them. Now, what Co you suppose the people of Montrose and vicinity bawl dodo for this enterprise. Many have done bravely, and paid freely all they were able to, others equally able, and much More benefitted, have refused to pay what they agreed to, and stilt others have not invested one dollar, at the same time admitting that its a good thing, nail has advanced their real estate Inmely. One hundred and eighty-seven of them engaged over names, to furnish money and take stock therefor to the amount of $02,200, of that amount they have paid 01.577, leaving unpaid $17.62;i. The whole amount of original stock subscribed for the granting and expenses of right of way and engineering, was $t40,000. The whole amount of stock taken by the cit izens of Montrose and vicinity, both new and old, has been VIS,t4IO, of this amount about $23,000 remains unpaid—of the amount paid under the head of "Montrose and vicinity," its proper for me to Any, that several thousand dol lars of it has been paid by other parties than its citizens, just how much I am at present unable to state. The citizens of Mauch Chunk, who are not Interested as the people of Montrose are, have subscribed for, and pail about $18,000. Has it ever been thought by you anti the pub lic, of lion' much benefit you are daily receiv ing, because of the building of Um M. R. R., even as tarns Allenville.
