aro compelled to take tho middle of tho street. Tho
Stroet Commissioners fhould immediately enforce

street properly repaired.
Tlx new railroad now in progress between this

nlong the river bank, instead of the bill. This will
prevent tho innndation of the low trrounds above the
bridges, nnd thus afford additional security to this
place against unusually high floods in the river.

Escape or Prisoners. On Sunday last, between
13 and 1 o'clock, two prisoners confined in our jail,
named John O. Williams and Jos.se Barnhart, made
their escape. They took the wooden rod from the
pump stock, and aftor oliwbing up to the second
story of the jail building, on the outside, by means
of the iron window grating, tbey laid one end of the
rod on the window sill and the other, to whioh there
was an iron book attached, on top of tho wall, and
walked across. They then fixed the rod on the out
side of the wall and let themselves down to the
ground and made their esoape. There were no very
serious charges pending against them. The Sheriff
offers a reward of $40 for the arrest of Williams and
520 for Barnhart.
Disturbance at Pcslic Meetings. The eon
duet of the boys at the Court Houae, whenever any
public meeting of any oharacter is held in that
building, is most disgraceful. There ahould be some
one olothed with police authority U take charge or
the building, and see that no disturbance is made.
The Janitor might be invested with soak authority
and compensated for bis trouble. If some of the
worst boys were arrested and Imprisoned they would
learn that youth is no excuse for want of deoeney
and good order. Theae retuarka will apply, alao, to
the meetings in the Maaonto Hall. No publlo ga
thering should be permitted without tome author'
Ised person to ketp order. This Is aoae in all well
regulated communities.
Remjbmca" MtiTmQ. On Taesday evening an
impromptu Repnblioan meeting, at a few hours ne
tloe, waabeld in the Court House, to listen to an ad
dress from the Hon. Frank P. Jordan, of Harrisburj,
formerly Chairman of the State Central Committee.
The meeting waa organised by calling Goo. Wag
genseller to the ohair, assisted by James Beard,
Dr. Joseph Eystcr and Geo. Harrison, as Vioe Pre
sidents, and the appointment of John Youngman,
Wni. A. Sober and S. Wilvert, as Secretaries.
Mr. Jordan had a large audience, and wo were
pleased to obsorve present a number of Demoerata.
Mr. Jordan's address was of that character that
oould not fail lo hava a good efleot on all oandid
men, who were capable of appreciating the truth
of an argument. lie reitoratad only well-established
taots. Ho made no attack, whatever, on the per
sonal character of Gov. Seymour, not even on the
doubtful reputation of Frank Blair.
If Gov. Seymour'a reputation for loyalty auflored,
it was because the evidence of his own friends waa
brought to bear against him. He quoted from a
speeoh of Daniel Dickoson, for many years tho
ablest of the Now York Democracy, that Mr. Soy
mour waa not true to his country. He quoted from
Ex-Governor Vance, of North Carolina, and Capt.
Marshall, of Kentucky, that in a ratification meeting
they recommended Gov. Seymour, after bis nomina
tion, on the ground that if he was elected, the "lost
oause" of the rebels would be rostored, and that
Gov. Seymour had always favored the . rebel causo,
whenever he had the power to do so. The speeoh of
Mr. Jordan was unanswerable, because ho spoke
from the records.
Gon. Clement followed in a few well received re
marks, after the conclusion of Mr. Jordan's address.
Grant aud Colfax Clubs. A Grant nnd Colfax
Club was organised at Mt. Carmol on the evening of
the2Uhult. The following aro its officers: H. T.
John, President; Richard Carnoe, Vico Prosident ;

Some forty members were enrolled.
On Saturday evening, 29th ult., a Grant and Col
fux Club was formed in Uaag's Hall, Milton, with

A Democratic Fizzle Tho other day, amid a
grand flourish of trumpets, the valiant Purdy un
dertook to address tho "unwashed" democracy of
Pottsgrovo. By having an amanuensis to preparo
notes for bini the gifted orator managed to wado
through about ten minutes of slang, when all at
once ho discovered that his auditory bad, like the
glories of the past, departed. He concluded it-would
not pay to talk to tho four or five persons who re
mained to listen to bis harrangno. Never mind,
Purdy, better luck next time ! AUtottian.
Pennsvlvama Agricultural College An-t
m ai. Meeting. The authorised delegates from the
several counties or the State Agricultural Societies
convened in tho College Chapel, at Bollofonte, on
Wednesday morning, 2d inst. John F. Wolfingcr
and David L. Ireland represented Northumberland
county.
On uiotiou ol Judge Watts, or Cumberland county,
Wm. B. Roberts, of Montgomery, was unanimously
elected Chairman rthe meeting, and John F. Wol
fingcr, of Northumberland, Secretary.
The Hon. Judge Watte, in behalf of tho Board or
Trustees, submitted their annual report. It con
tained a succinct statement of the management, en
dowment, and present status of the institution, and
causes of failure to meet tho onds proposed by the
originators of the movement. The report was sup
plemented by eomo pithy and earnest remarks rela
tive to tho prostrated situation of the institution,
notwithstandingthe baodsomo endowment fund and
tho character of the educators, whose "services had
been rendered from the organization of tbo college.
The censure lias not in the mismanagement of the
institution, or iu the erroneous idem of one nor many
or tho members or tho Board ol' Trustees, but in the
failure of the agricultural district of our State to
second the efforts of theso solf-mcrifioitig and nor.
remunerated men. Tbo school is prepared to give a
thorough aud liberal education to the sons of farm
ers, at a cost averaging from two hundred and forty
to two hundred nnd sixty dollars per year, while the
expenses at a firxt-cluss literary institution arc from
eight hundred to a thousand dollars. Pupils are
needed. These must be supplied through our
county agricultural societies. The report was adop
ted aud ordered to be printed.
Mr. Wolfingcr, of Northumberland, entertained
the convention by a briof and pertinent speech. Ho
attributed this source or evil not to be in the mis
management of the board, but to the cititens of the
Keystone State, the members of tbo agricultural so
cieties, nnd publio men, fur a lack of interest in the
oollego, which should be the pride and glory of our
State. He advocated a reduction in tbo price of
tuition, hoard, .vc , so as to put within tho roach or
the poorost farmer iu tho land the means for educa
ting not ono but all tho mule members of tbo house
bold. He urged the members of the convention to
return home and stir up the executive committees
of tho agricultural societies, editors of newspapers
and public men of their respective neighborhoods, to
a redoubling of their energy, faith, and afloction far
this much-abusod institution.
Mr. Wolfingcr asked for the acceptance of tho fol
lowing resolution :
Ktsolrnl, That the officers or our several agricul
tural societies throughout the State be requested lo
obtain the services of a suitable person to deliver an
address before tbuir respective societies at an early
day, urging our farmers and mechanics to encourage
and patronise tho oollege until it shall successfully
fulfill the greut and sublime mission aimed at in its
organisation.
The resolution was adopted.
The convention, on motion of A. B. Hamilton, pro
ceeded to the election of trustees to fill vacancies
occasioned by death and limitation of term. Tbo
ballots were duly cast and collected and the result
announced, as follows :
For one year, Harry Whito, Efq.
For three years, Messrs. lleister, Ellis and Kelly.
There being no further business before the con
vention, on motion, it adjourned.
For the Sunbury American.
Sunday School Celebration.
The members of the Emanuel Union Sunday
School oelebrated the 5th day of September in a
grovo near the township school bouse of Lower Au
gusta. The school assembled at 9 o'clock, A. M., in
the school house. Several beautiful hymns were
sung by the school. Preparations were then made
to march to the grounds, when the order was given
by the Chief Marshal, and all marched out and
funned ia double lino. When all was ready the
order was, forward, with singing the Royal Procla
mation. When wo arrived on the ground, while seating
ourselves and getting into order, the school sung
another beautilul hymn. After all was quiet sing
ing waa again introduoed by the Superintendent, as
follows :
To thee, O blessed Saviour,
Our grateful songs we raise ;
O tune our hearts and voices
Tby boly name to praise.
'Tie by sovereign meroy
We re here allowed to meet,
To join with friends and toacbers
Tby bloasing to entreat.
After singing:, prayer was offered un to Almia-htv
God in behalf of the Sunday School oause. After
rayer the audience waa addressed by ilovrs. W. A.
laas, J. II. Schmidt and J. it. Focht. Then dinner
waa prepared and the school marched to the table.
when the scholars bad nuuned their repast another
table was prepared, and so on, antil about three
hundred persons or over had refreshed themselves on
the daintiee that were providod by the surrounding
neiguoors sou irwnaa. vinner neing over, ine re
mainder ot tbe day waa spent in various amusements.
It waa supposed mat there were about Ave hundred
penoua on (he ground, and all aeemed to enjoy them

But ere we cloae we feel like telling our many
kind ladies and frienda that they have our best
thauks and wlabee for their aid ia a glorioaa oause.
