The long walk graded some little time since,
on North Main street,of which we made a note
at the time,is progressing. We see it is nearly
half covered with plank. We are anxious to

Tar and Feathers
A respectable citizen at the city of Carbon
dale was invited to a neighboring house one
evening last week, and when there, was attack
ed by several persons, and his bead arid neck
covered with warm tar and feathers. This,
and the charge of slander imputed to hint, have
caused great excitement in that place, and will
no doubt end in the courts. 3lost of the per..
sons involved in this unhapy affair, me in good

Sonic of our readers, stye the Otriatien row

to kiwi .v what they have accomplisloal in that
time, According to a French statistician the av

worked 10,500 days, walked 00 days, amused
himself 8,000 days, spent 1,200 days in eating,
and been sick 800 da l s. lie has eaten 11,00*
pounds of bread, 16,000 pounds of meat, 4
pounds of vegetables, fish, etc., and drank ~1810
gallons of liquids. There are 18,280 days in
halt a century, and from the above statements,
would seem that a man slept one third of the
Fastest Railroad Train in America.
The newspaper train on the Pennsylvania
nulrUad now carries a passenger coach. It
start:, from Jersey city at 4 a. m , and arrives
at Went Philadelphia at 6:57 The section las
tween New Brunswick and Trenton is run at
the rate of a mile a minute. The train has been
in operation about a ye .r and has met with but
one accident, when it struck a carriage killing
two horses. When the train was first put on
it was manned by an engineer, fireman and two
,Own to handle the papers. They were volute
leers, and rigoeda paper releasing the company
'trona all responsibility in case of atandent. Cr
on nit pretense or plea-was tiny person allowed
to ride. The company, finding that the train
. was safe as any other, and that an additional
-car would add to its sufcty by giving more hal

car thereto and opened the line to the public.

Stark, the proprietor of the Company's board
ing house at that place and a former citizen of
this county. 31r: Stark bad been to the station
to get rome tomato plants, which hail been
sent him by Ziba Billings, of this place, and
was on his wdy home in company with several
other men. Just as he reached the main track
the morning tram South, which leaves this
place at 7a. m., came thundering around the
curve at a tearful speed. but Mr. Stark think
ing he could make the length of a few rars
which stood upon the siding, next his boarding
house, before the train would reach him, pro
ceetled down the main track on a run, but ere
he reached his destination the pilot or the ap
proaching engine struck him throwing him to
ones side of the trackJacerating hishead in a ter
rible manner and killing him almost instantly.
Thus, for

man lies gOileto an untimely grave and a de

No Moro Drowsing
A. new invention has just been tried in Paris
which is said to render drowning a thing of the
pest. It consists in the employment of apnea
matte hullo tubber tube rolled round the body
with a suMelent number of folds to contain the
necessary amount of air.. This tube la placed
concealed in a double envelope forming a shirt.
It terminates by a month piece, which shuts
with the aid of a simple copper. button. The
Oeration is simple in the' extreme, and the
swimmer or immersed person has enough air
for a whole Any. When the apparatus comes
to diminish in -volume it is easy to expand it
again by. the principal tube in deep water with
out any effort or difficulty. The trial wits wit
nessed at the Mary the FoUrtb baths, when
the inventor. M. Gossolin, showed its proper
ties. He stood uptight, tbgthands. raised aboye

The following valuable recipe for destrOY
nsects, which we take from the Bostondoir)
ial of (Bemisfey, will interest housekeepers's;
m
'istly at this season of the year : Take two;
polled% of alum, and dissolve it in three or fd nr
quarts of boiling water ; let it stand upon the
tire until the alum disappears ; then apply it
with a brush, while
. nearly hot, to every joint
and crevice in your closets, beibiteids, pantry
shelves, and the like. Brush the il•evieca lu the
floor of the skirting mop-boards, if you suspect
they barber vermin. If in whitewashing a
ceiling, plenty of aliim is added to the lime, it
will also serve to keep insects at a distance.—
, Cockroaches will flee the paint which bus been,
washed tiown in cool alum water. Sugar bar

ing a wide chalk mark just around the edge of
the top.,f them. The mark must be unbroken,

The potato bug Is creating serious havoc
among the growing potato and tomato vines
In this vicinity. Some fields have thus far en
tirely escaped, while in Mitres millions of the
bugs are voraciously eating the vines and de.
stroying the plants. Farmers and trackers are
using the al tferent remeuies recommended, but I
some of them meet with but slight success. Mr. I
Hershey, at the driving perk, has a patch of I
several acres so overrun with the bugs as to be ;
almost entirely destroyed. Most of the farmers
along the Susquehanna river bottom are Mugu
! tarty annoyed while those on higher grounds
have thus far escaped comparatively free.
A farmer of Indiana, who has tiled it, gives
the folio% ing sure agent for the destruction of
these bngs : 'Take one pound of Paris green and '
; one peck of wood ashes (or ground plaster will

last year cleared $lOOO, on 3 acres of berries,

$2OOO, and he has only been on his farm tour

A Boy from etagnehanna, comes back and
Susquehanna in her June rube ! And an 4

out 01 the city-desert—and saw me shot Ulm.
nigh two-hundred tulles distance, hither.
It was in a June too, I came to this Sdsque
banns the first time from an olden shore, for
abode in this new country in-land. Not shot
through the three-hundred miles of journey, but
pies.ting, it by real travel—a Aopd fun: ftrtdight
of it, on water and land by sail and team, the
staid oid methods of journeying, venerable next
to that yet more ancient one, the primitive it

extent, and in many respects, still and ever the

And the June aspect of Susquehanna non*, as''
well us the method of journey hither, hi differ

a long stretch, comparatively, between one pe

in the history of a new country also. It seems
wonderful that the same mortal eyes that saw
Sth.quehanna as it was sixty four yeaxe att., see
it as it is now. The "everlasting hills" remain,
and the valleys ; but wonderfully changed the
aspect they ',ear. Do they talk of nature dis
placed by Libor and art. or what we call Im
provement? lime is inure of nature now, than
then, and with it what was not then. The Im
provement has lifted nature to her apotheosis
of union .ith human life, with intellect, with
spil it, refined, sublunated towards erfec
uun primitive Eden ;by the co-operalon at
human Mimi and Skill with the ever-working
providence of the Creator.
Over these hills, through these valleys, along
these streams, by these lakelets, where, in the

Judge Temple had put a doien hemloCk shing

I believe there is as much mercantile Waffle

merchants are selling great quantities of goods,
sad that they sell as cheaply as the Bingham

five to ten per cent. cheaper than Binghamton

No. 1, on his Erie mad, which does not stop,
but whirls through the town at the rate of fur- P

No. I has no right to rush through a busy vil

street in town, and whirling around a bad curve

the terrible speed of forty voiles an hour. And
