The parties who have been taking tbe right of way for the Harrisburg & Western Railroad through this county have met with very little difficultly and we are in formed, expect to finish up the business this week. They have been securing the right ot way for the line that runs several miles north of town, but have done nothing as yet on the route that runs through the town. This docs not look very favorable for Somerset. We learn from our farmer friends that much of the corn planted this spring failed to sprout on account of inferior seed. They allege that owing to the unfavorable weath er for gathering the crop of last year much of it was cribbed in a wet condition, and during the bard freesing weather of the winter it was so badly frozen that the germ of the grain was killed. Some farmers have replanted patches of their fields where the corn sprouted in spots. On Thursday of last week while J. M.

Ia Oonnellsville the boys are largely in the majority. It was perhaps with the idea of evening matters up a little that a dozen of our young men last week arrayed themselves in killing attire, sought the quiet shades of Somerset, secured the company of a dozen of her young ladies and indulged in a hop at the Somerset house.

On the morning of the 30th by 9 o'clock, tbe streets of the village of Stoystown were full of people. ' Tbe citizens of the commu nity for miles around laid aside their usual cares and came in to join in the ceremonies assigned for the honor of our fallen heroes. Tbe procession formed on Diamond Square in the following order : Members of the G. A. R., 2nd, Veteran Soldiers not members of the G. A. R.; 3rd Sunday Schools ; 4lh, Citizens. The column headed by the Union Brass Band and a Martial Band organized for tbe occasion, proceeded to the Lutheran Church where the impres sive ceremonies directed by the ritual of the G. A. R. were gone through with, after which, the orator of the day, Prof. X. B. Critchfield, in his usually pleasant and elo quent style delivered the address of the day. During the time tbe address was being de livered the eye of many a veteran Soldier as well as others, was moistened with tears, prompted by memories awakened by the Speaker. Some very excellent music was rendered in the church by the choir, and an appropri ate solo sung by Rev. A. S. Baumgardner is worthy of special notice. At the close of the excercises in the church, the procession moved in the first named order to the Odd Fellows Cemetary, where after another im pressive ceremony by the G. A. R. Post, beautiful wreaths of flowers prepared and borne hither by the town and community were deposited on tbe mounds rising above eyery soldier's grave. The ceremonies at the cemetery completed, the prccassion re turned to the village and details from the G..A. R. Post were made to complete tbe work of the day at this place. In the afternoon ,the Post divided, and in response to calls coining from Horner's Church and Larabertsville a detachment went to each place, where tbe ceremonies of the order were repeated and again the floral offerings of Spring were strewn upon the graves of those who fell in Freedom's holy cause.

W. II. M 1st inst, says : " The City Directorr for tbe current year contains 80,734 names, or 4,212 more than that of the . previous year. The publishers calculate that the population of Pittsburgh, Allegheny, and the adjacent ter ritory covered by the work reached 288,000 - - Pittsburgh baa- always been growing place, and will continue to grow if she only gets half a chance." . We have in our possession, as perfect as when it came from the hands of the book binder, : The Pittsburgh Directory for 1815," , containing tbe -warnee, professions and residence of tbe beads of families, and persons in business in the borough of Pitts burgh, with an appendix containing a va riety of useful information, printed for James M. Riddle, compiler and publisher.' In this directory we find the names, resi dences, etc., of 1305 persons in the borough nroner. and of 100 in Birmingham, Law- renceyille, Bayards town, etc" In his pref ace the compiler uniquely says : The dim culties naturally attendant upon uie nrst attempt at a work of this kind will, to can did, reflecting minds, be a sufficient apolo gy for the errors which- may appear ; to men of different disposition, the Compiler does not deem it necessary to offer one," The .history of the borough ia giyen follows : " Pittsburgh, the seat of justice for Allegheny county, Pa,, is situated on point of land formed by the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongabela rivers, in latitude 40 35' K. long. 80 33' W. about 300 miles W, by N. from Philadelphia, 250 from Washington City, and l.lto (by land) from New Orleans, in early times a ion was established here called DuQuense, which in 1758 was blown up and evacuated oa the approach of General Forbes. Shortly after a fort was built by the British called Fort Pitt, and about tbe year 1700 a small town called Pittsburgh was built near the fort, but tbe present town of Pittsburgh was first laid out in 1705, and afterwards laid out and DUTVeyed, on its present plan, in 174. The ground plot of the town is triangular, In con-t)the streets running parallel with each river which! at their, junction form an angle of about 33 degrees. The population in 1800 was about 2,400 souls in 1810 the census gaycf 2,740, and in 1815 a calculation, found- on what is believed to be correct data, makes an estimate of upwards of 9,000. This great increase of population is to oe attribu ted to the late war with Great Britain, which converted a great portion of the capital of the seaboard into manufactories, much of which was concentrated in this place. The transportation of southern produce, during the war, through Pittsburgn across the mountains, also contributed greatly to the increase of the population here. Three weekly newspapers are published in the borough, besides two periodical literary works the former have an extensive cir culation the latter are chiefly confined to the' town and immediate vicinity, The public buildings (in addition to tbe churches hereafter cnumerr-ted) are a court house, prothonotaty's, register's, sheriff's and commissioner's offices, a jail, three in corporated banks, a dramatic theatre, a Ma sonic ball, three market houses (one in the Diamond and two in Sacond street) an Academy, etc. Few .'places can boast of more useful im provements in manufactures and the me chanical arts than Pittsburgh it has been justly and emphatically styled The Bir mingham of America." A comparative view of its progress must indeed awaken admira tion. Until about the year 1793 its progress was not rapid. In the year 181 we behold it rich and flourishing, daily augmenting in manufactures an i commerce." The officers of this rich and flourishing borough were Burgess, John Darragh; Town Council, John M. Snowden, President; John Rosen- burg, William Lucas, Thomas Perkins, Mah- lon Rodgers. John W. Johnston, William Anderson, John Caldwell, James - Brown, John Hannon, Mark Stack house," Richard Kohn son, George Cochran ; Town Clerk and Treasurer, Lazarus Stewart; High Consta ble, John B.

Let me say right here that I have frequently observed that a candidate does as much work at raising as three or four other men.

" - management of the Balto. and Ohio Rail road, the Picturesque line of America, have arranged an excursion to Ft. Monroe and Norfolk, Tuesday, June 19, at the exceeding ly low rate of $0.65 for the round trip from Somerset, including rail and steamer ride. Those who participated in the charming excursion given by this company last year are eager for another dip in old Ocean, and unanimously agree that no other spot is half so inviting as old Point Comfort. Who of last year's excursionists does not remem ber with pleasure the delightful bathing, sumptuous fare and successful fishing at old Point Comfort, the views of southern life glimpses of which are obtained in Nor folkthe invigorating, effect , of the sail on the ocean, the interesting sights at the Capi tal of the Nation, and lastly the pleasures of the ride oyer the B.& O. R. R. Seven days' time will be given excursionists to drink in all the luxuries provided by tbe B. & O. Company, and we opine that not one of those who were included in the list of excursionists a year ago will be missing, and that the roll will be eSlarged by the d dition of their " sisters and their cousins and their aunts." Remember that the occasions for such pleasures are limited, and this op portunity to visit the ocean should not be lost. Send to E. D. Smith, Passenger Agent, Pittsburgh, for programmes of details, &c m Don't forget it when you want a good suit for yourself or child, that the old reliable stand of J. B.

We will not attempt to explain the workings of this machine or to give tbe many advantages it possesses over all com petitors, any more than that, it weighs five hundred pounds less than any other Binder now in the market, and cuts, binds and de livers in the most workman-like manner, any one being able to manipulate it, as there will be another of Uie same kind ex hibited at tbe same place at 1 o'clock p. ni., Saturday, when all interested parties are requested to be present and witness its mar velous workings, for themselves. .The one shown Monday was sold to Mr. John H.
