We saw the other day, some of the finest
heats of lettuce in 11. F. Turrell's garden that
we ever saw. Mr. T. informs us that the heads
if properly cultivated will measure eighteen

markably tender and delicious. It is a variety
called the "Baldwin lettuce," as it was first in
troduced by Judge Baldwin.
The Montrose Railway company,as well as the

a right to do just as they please, and we shall
not attempt to abridge the right. -The public
has the same right as to extending them their
patronage.

From what we know of the doings of the

They givenotice that thesubjert of an orenntz

From their past action we have no belief that
they intend to become a band of street cru
saders, to pray at men instead of for them, to
be heard and seen of them, instead of flim who
alone can answer' prayer, and to bring ridicule
upon 'envie and themselves? No ! We rather.
believe that they intend to form au organization
without spleen,blgotry or fanaticism, upon the
only firm and lasting roundation, a rational,
moral basis, to wage war against the sin of in
temperance at against every other Resetting
sin, not forgetting that "Almighty Power
which is able to save," by substituting weak,
erring, Leman political judgment. Let the
whole power of Chnstianity be honestly ex
pended to implant a moral reform in the hearts
of men,and then there is no evil that can over
come it. To \say that this is not the most dil
ations mode to eraclimite the evil of Wea!),
rance is to acknowledge that Christianity Is a
positive fallure,and that human political agency
must be iuterioacd to save mankind.
C. M. Crandall's establishment shows what
benefit manufacturing Is to a town. He now
employs in his block-factory, one hundred and
six hands, and pays out to them an average of
$l,OOO per tFeck. Such employment ot capital
builds up a town and a county. Labor is sup•
ported, and in tarn it products a value which
increases the wealth of the section where it is
expended. One of these day-labors 7 i does
more toward building up this town t to all
the blood-sucking shylock's we have got, and
we are better cursed with them than any other
town of its size in our acquaintance. The more
of these laboring men we have,and the less of the
"money harpies," the better, as the latter class
arc simply human mosquitoes, presenting their
bills without value received, and sucking the
very lifeblood from the laboring masses. A set
of idle drones in the community, liv
ing wholly upon the labor of others.
We clip the following"cliorus"from the Mon

Hurrah, boys hurrah the Narrow Gauge
is done,
Hoist up a banner. the off a gun ;
Over hill and 551103, how easily we run ;
Hurrah, boys! hurrah ! the Narrow Gauge
Is done."
In our "Review" of the above poem, we have
this criticism. Mr. Deans has taken an un•
warranted poetic license, and stretched the
facts when he says" The Narrow Gauge is done"
or else he is wofully deficient in orthography,in
that he did not spell the word "done"— I)

To the Citizen,' and Firemen of Tunkhannork :
Rough & Ready Engine Company, No. 1, of
Montrose, take this early opportunity of ex
pressing their appreciation of the entertainment
given them on the 4th of July. At a meeting
of said Company, Wedne s day evening, July Bth
the following resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Resansd, That we compliment the citizens of
Tunkhannock for the abundant and extensive
preparations which they made for the recep
tion of their invited guests, and commend them
for the general good order maintained.
Raolre.d, That we congratulate the Officers of
the Day upon the successful carrying out of the
details of the celebration.
&wised, That wu thank the Triton Huse
Company for the civilties and courtesies
receiv
at their hands.
Re-soired, That the best words contained in
these resolutions are due to the Indies of Tunk.
hannock, and we hereby tender to them our
united and earnest thanks (lir the kind and gen•
crone welcome which they gave us. Rarely has
it been our fortune to sit down to tables loaded
with such bountiful supplies—in quantity so
ampledn quality so toothsome- After the long
and tiresome march, that dinner just "tilled the
bill" in a most satisfactory and refreshing man
ner; and the ladies who so politely and faith
fully served us may rest assured that the cheers
we gave them, as we rose from the tables, came
lees from the fullness of our stomachs than front
the fullness of our hilirts.
Rewired, That any erroneous impressions
which we have entertainer in regard to Tunk
hannock have been most happily dispelled, and
that hereafter her people will take rank in our
remembrance as `•white" folks, who know how
to entertain stranzer,
RAN?lned, That at some future day we hope to
reciprocate the favor. Such interchanges of
good feeling between the people of different
towns can only be one of mutual advantage to
those who participate in them ; and we prom
ise that whenever the citizens of Montrose will
take the same interest and put forth efforts
equal to those of the citizens of Tunkhannock
on this occasion, the Fire Department ot Mont
rose will gladly take whatever position may be
assigned to them, and will seek by every means
in their power to make the day one of pleasure
and profit to aIL . •

Important Decision.
The Middletown Mercury says that the suit
of W. G. Stanton against the Wallkill Natton
alflank ant► John Burroughs as receiver has
been docided In favor of the plaintiff. The suit
was commenced to recover the value of bonds
left by plaintiff with the bank as collateral se
curity for loans. The claim was duly proved
before the receiver, but was not allowed on the
ground that the bank was not liable, and the
suit was then brought. It was tried before
Judge Barnard, at Poughkeepsie, in May last.—
The Judge decided that the bank was liable not
only for bonds left as collateral security, but al
so for bonds left merely for sale keeping. Judge
ment was ordered fur plaintiff forsl,2oo the
amount of the bonds and interest, besides costs.

An Important Admission•
Dr. Din Lewis, the father of crusading, has
made up his mind that prohibition laws again,'t
the selling of liquor, other than regulated by
license, are failures. He still beleives in the
effeeacy of woman's prayers, but is forced to
conClude, from observations in Blaine and other
states, that instead of squelching the traffic,
prohibitedy laws simply drive it under cover,
which makes it worse than ever. He tells us
that there are in Bangor, a city of only 15.000
inhabitants, am hundred drinking pldee.s, which
is in proportion to one drinking place to every
fifty inhabitants ! And yet Bangor has a pro
hibitory law, and Mr. • Lewis tells us that he
:featd to find one open drinking place in the
whole city or state. Everything is done Ms

Epicurean
The hind legs of frogs are considered a great
delicacy by some people, and in France they
are a national dish. Now, se heard a story
the other day about our friend. Remer, the Di
rectory luau, and one of the Messrs. Herman,
whose store is just opposite the Bush House,
which is too good to keep. Thinking they
would relish a dish of stewed or tried frog legs,
they went up into the neighborhood rit
Roops
burg a few days ago to catch some of the little
animals. Theirsuccess was tremendous. They
caught their handkerchief full, and came home
to the Bush House, where they hoard, in high
glee, and with their mouths watering for a taste
of the delicious legs. Col. Wilkinson, the pro
things tg f el l 4 th eh oti ul gt lie would examine the
ample repast with which these young gentle
men had provided themselv es , and proceeded
to untie the bundles, when, 10, and behold, in
stead of frogs he discovered a couple 01 dozen
of big warty toads, which these eminent nat
uralists had mistaken for the animal they want
ed. In great disgust, our Blends emptied the
toads into the gutter, threw away their hand
kerchiefs, and have been gagging at the atom
' ach ever since All one has to do now to make
either of those fellows mad, is just to say "frog"
to him, and Renner thinks some of putting a
paragraph into the Directory explanatory of
the fact that Bellefonte trogs are all toads.—

The Tunkbannock Rem/Wean in speaking of
the late celebration at that place alludes to the
Montrose Cornet Band and Fire Department in
the following style :
The Montrose Fire Department attracted tul•

both companits is reel, caps, belts and trim.
ming differing. The Department is officered as
follows: E. C. Fordham, Chief Engineer; J.
R Raynsford, tat Ana's., S. D. Puche, 2d /salt.
The officers of Rough & Ready No. 1, are, L.
Searle, Jr., Foreman, and B. Stroud, W. A.
Cronsman, Amos Nichols, and H. C. Jessup,
Wardens. The officers of Montrose Fire Com.
puny No. 2, are J.V. aylor, Foreman, and J.
S. Tarhell, C J. Whipple, W. H. Boyd, and W.
31. Bennett, Wardens. They were accompan
ied by E. L. Blakeslee and other honorary
members. They number about 75 men each,
and are active, vigilant, and brave. The appa
ratus consists of hand engines and elegant hose
carriages,of which No. 1 beats for beauty and
No. 2 for good. Good boys, all of them. •
The Montrose Cornet Band is a well deserv

should get them a handson e uniform. They

Sagacity of Cats.
The segacity of cats in the matter of rat
catching Is really wonderful. We find it asser
ted in an exchange that in a store in Exeter, a
short time ago, a hogshead had been left open,
and upon going to it a company of rats were
found In the bottom, having been attract
ed hither by its contents, and being unable to
get out. The store cat was brought and placed
in position to see them,but alter taking a good
look jumped down and ran out of the door,sbort
ly appearing with another cat. The two now
looked over the situation and retired, soon cant
ing back with a third cat. They now scented
satisfied with their force, and made au attack
jumping into the hogshead, The cats. had,
however miscalculated the force of their enemy,
and two were killed. the other being taken out
in time to says its life. A few months aim a
cat exploit came to light un the farm of Thom
as Ham at Seeleyville, which lays ever every
thing on record. On going into the barn one
mooing it was found that the cat had caught
ten huge rats, cut their throats with her teeth,
skinned them as cleanly and completely as the
most expert trapper could have doge, and laid
them in a pile ou the barn floor. They were
allowed is remain, and on the following mor
ning seven additional butcherk.s and dressed
rodents were added to the heap. The next
night five more swelled the pile, and the on•
slaught was kept up until the cat had vaalaish

thirty-seven rats were pilml up in one heap.
The entire skin was completely stripped Goat
every one, but they were hot otherwise muti
lated.
Balloon Ascension in Binghamton.
W. 11. Donaldson, the most daring and sue
cmstul remnant in the world, mask a successful
ascension in his balloon the "Sylvan Stream,"
on Saturday last, from Morgan's flats in Bing
hamton, which landed in Oilbertsvllle, 0 taego
Co, N. Y.,a distance of fifty inks Irony Ring
'annul In just oue hour and twenty minutes
from the time of gaming.
Ile was launched into the air by clinging
with one hand to a trapeze attached to the bal
loon. While about one half mile from the earth
be performed some daring anti appaninn feats,
such as turning summersaults On the trapeze,
lying on it upon his back with folded arms ;
lie climbed up the rope toward the balloon and
suspended himself by his hands between the
two topes, his head hanging downward above
the trapeze, and then suddenly let himself drop
and caught himself by his toes and hung sus
pended by,them, afterward raising himsell to
an upright position by seizing the trapeze with
his bands. We have no desire to witness such
tempting of accident. ' SUM Patch" made one
too many leaps, and so will Donaldson.
The tidlowing is Donaldson's own account of
his voyage : Left Binghamton at 3:23 p. m. ;
tray, led west ; struck the clouds at 4,000 feet
high , passed through them at 0,000 ; the sue
was very warm and bright, yet the air was
cool, the thermometer standing at (r 2 degrees
while at the earth it was 70 degrees. After I
got through the clouds I found that I was go
ing east, while the clouds were going north
west. I could distinctly hear the whistling of
two different engines, but could not tell what
road they were from. The highest point reach
eel (according to Aneroid barometer) was 9,700
feet, or nearly two miles At 415 p.m., I com
menced descending slowly until I got beneath
the clouds, which was the first.time I had seen
earth since I started. After I got below the
clouds my descent was more rapid, caused by
the contraction of frets. At 4:20 I passed a small
village or town, at two thousand feet high, and
could see quite a gathering on the streets. I
inquired the name of the place and understood
them to say Mastinville, but was not positive.—
At this time I struck a current that curried me
north. By discharging the proper amount of
sand I kept at this height, exchanging words
with people in the different villages. I was
trying to reach Buttrenuts, but when within
ter to any of
office."
about a mile of the village was caught in a se
vere Fitorm. I discharged ballast and tried to
get above it, but it rained so hard that it added
so much weight to the ballon that it caused me
to descend rapidly. While in tho body of &bpi°
clouds, a dash orlightning blinded Inc for some
utinutt and caused a.terrilic ringing noise in
ny head—the noise WU tremendous. I then
tried to make a landing ; r threw nut my grap
pling hooks, but they faded to hold and I was
dragged nearly half a mile over fences and
fields. Then I encountered a piece of woods
and was dragged through the tops of the trees
nearly a half mile farther. Luckily I passed
over two small trees and the grappling caught
ut the foot ; I at once descended the rope and
made nty grappling fast. It was now 5;25 p. m.
and I stayed through the storm here. The storm
was powerful, and I was very wet and consid
erably bruised but not seriously hurt. Having
had experience to making these landings, 1 was
better prepared to protect myself After the
shower I went to look for things that I lost
while being dragged nye' the fields; then went

Letter From Great Bend.
Enivons DEmOcnsT:--There is not a more
law-abiding community in the country than
ours. It is a mixed community—not so much
in color, but In nationalities. There are
many Irish here, but the charge so often made
that foreigners are more turbulent and lawless
than the descendants of the Mayflower's crew,
does not apply to them. They are mostly qntet,
hard-working, honest men and women. Many
have accumulated considerable property, and a
better class of atilens cannot be found any
where: As one of tlibm told me yesterday, "we
work twelve hums of the twenty-four, pay our
debts if we can, and vote the straight Demo
cratic ticket."
Our business men assert that,, the summer
trade is far better than they could by any course
of reasonable calculation expect or hope for
Scanning the business horizon at large, men
have prophesied a- general and ruinouTsfagna
lion, but for some cause our town has thus far
escaped it. Our merchants are busy, retail and
wholesale, our MUM: fucturies arc in full blast l
imd their employes generally have money to
pay their bills at the end of the mouth—a sign
that they receive their pay.
Some of your readers may catch at the word
wholesale, as applied ta our merchants; but we
have them here. These is the firm of .1. & 11.
V. Coisten, dealers in stone ware, &c. The
proprietors are quiet men who make no blow
whatever, and while I have frequently noticed
their wagons passing through town. and knew
they were is the stone-ware business, I had
no idea it was such au extensive business as it
really is. I visited their stone-ware house re
cently, and it is worth a description, I assure
you. The stone house, which is no other than
the barn building formerly attached to the Na
tional lintel—was packed from bottom to top
with stone-ware,Rockingham and Yellow ware
jars of every size and shape, by the ton, jugs,
crocks, dishes, pipe for drainage, clay pipes,
door yard vases, beer bottles,—in fact every
thing in the line of stone ware and crockery
ware. The firm send their ware to every por
tion of the Middle and New England States,
and I Judge that three.fourths of the stone-ware
goods used in New York, Pennsylvania and
New Jersey, passes through their hands. Mr.
Coisten assured me that the immense pileaof
goods before me was but a small part of their
stock, and yet, they are unable to 511 all their
orders, the demand is so great.
Messrs. Booth & Colsten have established a
manufactory here fur making the new universal .
Flexible Hemmer. The business must prove e
valuable one,not only to the firm, but the town
for the hemmer. Is beyond question' the best
made. It turns a hem any width desired, and
turns it perfectlye too,every time, no matter
whether the cloth be like gauze or corduroy.—
It is the only perfect sewing machine , attach
ment I have ever seen,. _lt is so simpin
can do good work withirthe first time trying,
while there seems to be no possible chance for
it to get out of order. Into not know whether
they are yet sold In Montrose, or not, but I be
lieve they will be offered by local agents in
'each town.

The following rezolutiobs were unanimously

remove from our midst, By the hand of death,
Dr. E. N. Loomis, who was one of the pioneer
members of this, the Unton Sabbath School,sl
- the first, and for several years its honored
and beloved superintendent; therefore,
&mired, That es a Sabbath School we deep
ly mourn the loss of one who endeared himself
to us by his early and continued efforts in the
muse ; that we will endeavor to emulate his
example, cherish his faith, and seek his reward.
Revolted, That the community has lost a faith
fin and conscientious citizen, and the sick and
afflicted a Judicious benefactor.
Revoked, That wo tender to his bereaved
family and large circle of mourning relatives
our heartfelt sympathy, and may He "who
doeth all things well," comfort them to their
deep affliction.
l&aolved, That these resolutions be entered
