Tho Excursion.
Tlie excursion to Fair Point, Chau
tauqua Lnkc, from this ami other
tow us nlong this road, came off on Sat
urday last as advertised. The crowd
from this place was not large as the
one last year, owing, perhaps, to the
novelty of the thing having woru
off w ith last Bummer's excursion, and
somewhat to tho impracticability of
realizing on future expectations. Thirty-eight,
wo believe, was the number
that got on tho train at 'I ion est a sta
tion. At Hickory .nineteen more ex
cursionists got on with smilinjj faces
and wtll-filled baskets. At Trunkey
ville quite a 'number were tiken in,
and at Tidiouto it looked ns if the
whole Iowa and surrounding country
were tit Hie depot. Several morewero
taken on between that point and
Youngsville, which was the last placo
ho tririu stopped for excursionists.
Altogether, we believe there were some
three hundred who took in the trip.
Tho train made good time, and with
tho exception of a stop at Corry, for
the purpose of turning the locomotive,
und gettiug the train on the Cross-Cut
ltoad, the train steamed along nt a
lively gait, until we reached Mayville,
exactly on time. Hero without any
confusion, the excursionists were taken
ou board the steamer "Mayville," and
after a short but pleasant voyage,
reached Fair Point, in good shape, at
20:15 a. m.
The next step was to dispose of 1 .inch
baskets and visit tho Holy Land. The
Chautauqua Palestine is somewhat out
of repair, the water supply of the Jor
dan being somewhat limited, and some
of the cities having Buffered complete
demolition, while some of the most
fashionable residences in others stand
in need of immediate repairs.
. When the crowd reached the audi
torium Mr. Anthony Comstock of New
York was addressing the audience. in
relation to the National Society for
the suppression of vice, giving its his
.lory and describing its operations. It
w related of this man that he has been
twice sbot at by those whose business
vaa the spread of vice through the me
tliuui of obscene literature; also that
ii? has had Sevcial other narrow es
capes from death from the samo source
fcuce he has becu engaged in the pros
ecution of this work.
Ilev. Dr. Newman, of Washington,
was introduced at 11 o'clock, and de
livered a powerful lecture on Pcctiliur
Christian Reformatory Forces. He U
one of the most pleasing speakers we
have ever listened to, and his lecture
gave evidence of deep research and
profound study. The audience was
dismissed for dinner.
Lunch baskets were then brought
forth, and the result of an early break
fust and a good half day of healthy
excitement was made apparent in the
marvelous rapidity with which the
junches disappeared.
At two o'clock, at which time the
piogratnme said that Francis Murphy
would speak, the auditorium was
crowded. It was then announced that
Mr. Murphy's address would be post
poned uutil half-past throe o'clock, to
Accommodate a large exclusion which
iv as due at about that time.
Mr. L'ccles Itobinson, of Pittsburgh,
a young man who had been reformed
through tho efforts of Mr. Murphy, was
introduced, and gave some of his ex
perience. Although not a good speak
er, he eonviuced the audience of his
finccrity and the thoroughness of his
reform.
Kev. Meade, of llornellsvillej N. Y.
was next introduced, and told of the
progress of the Murphy movement in
hi section. The exercises were inter
tpersed with good singing under the
directorship of Piof. Sherwin, of Los
ton, ucccmpnuied by a piano aud cor
net. At 3:30 Dr. Vincent introduced
Francis Murphy, who came forward
uuJ handled tho largo audience of
-1,000 persons as his humor led him.
At ouo moment everybody would be
convulsed with laughter at someuecr
remark ; the next, the whole audience
would be affected to tears by tho sim
ple recital of some touching scene in
bis history ; then, again, bo would
launch out in a storm of the most
' "jueit language we evor heard, and
,', i iiMiafctu u'ii litent:i would
'! i:i dtafcniiig applause. Hi
IV. U. DUNN
history is not wonderful, but the man
tier in which ho tells it in. IIo pos
sesses the peculiar faculty of gaining
at once the sympathy of his audience
and holding it and them as long as be
talks. JI is personal success in the
tempcranco movement is not strange
to one who has listened to him. The
strength, tho sympathy, tho earnest
uess he displays warms every heart,
and enlists the good wishes of all.
But alas ! "before he had finished the
time came for our excursion to go to
the wharf to take the boat. It was
hard work, but it had to be douo.and
we left while Murphy was yet speak
ing, wishing him yet moro abundant
success in his efforts in the great tem
perance reform.
Part,, pel haps half, of the excursion
ists took the boat at 12 o'clock for an
excursion up to Jamestown. They
were accompanied by McCray's string
band, and mirth and dancing was the
order of the day. The same boat, with
these excursionists on, met us nt the
wharf, and a short tine brought us
again to Mayville, where wo again
took the cars for home, arriving at
Tionesta at 9:45, thirty minutes ahead
of time.
Everybody was well pleased, and
the excursion was a success in every
sense of the word.
The peacock has heretofore been
considered as more of an ornamental
than useful fowl. It has been reserv
ed for a Knox township farmer, our
worthy fviend, Henry Staab, Esq., to
develop t& the world a new phase of
the usefulness of this much maligned
fowl. He informs us that he purchas
ed a pair last spring, and after his po
tatoes were grown sufficiently for po
tato bugs to depredate on, turned the
peacocks into the patch. He further
sUtes that the vigorous manner in
which these fowls weut for those de
praved bugs, was a pleasure to see.
After the peacadts had ranged over
tho patch he found they had scooped
every bug. And so they have coutiun
ed throughout tho aaason, and have so
far thrived as to decline all other food.
Whilrt the country has been expend
ing thousand of dollais in purchas
ing Paris green and other drugs to
keep the digestive organs of the Colo
rado pest in order, irar friend Staab
has arrived at a practical solution of
the vexed question that will meet with
the approbation of every potato raiser
in the land. And in these ilaya of
civil service reform, Mr. Staab's val
uable discovery should not be allow
ed to go unrewarded. Thero ' might
be some danger in case of general use
of the peacocks finally developing in
to potato-bugs of goodly size, but it
hardly s-tiits to anticipate each an

The following is an extract from a de
seriptioti of Vim-laud, published in tho
New York Tribune, bv the well-known
Agriculturist, Solon Robinson:
All tho farmers were of tho "well to do"
sort, and somo of them, who havo turned
their attention to fruits und market gard
ening, have grown ri:h. Tho soil is loam
varying from sandy to clayey, and surface
gently undulating, intersected with small
bt reams ami occasional wet meadows in -which
deposts of peat or muck are stored,
sutlicient to fertilize tho whole upland sur
face, after it. has been exhausted of its
naturul fertility.
It is certainly ono of the most extensive,
fertile tracts, ia an almost leyd position
and suitable condition for pleasant f irm-'
ing, that wo know of this bide of tho West
ern prairies. We found somo of the old
est larms apparently just as profitably
productive us when lirst cleared of forest
lilty or a hundred years ago.
Thu geologist would soon discover Iho
eauso of tins continued fort Lily The
whole country is a marine deposit 'and all
through tho soil we found evidences of
calcareous substances, generally in the
lorm of indurated calcareous marl show
ing many distinct forms of ancient shells
of the tertiary formal,,,,, ; aiui ft a .
subhtanee is scattered all through tho soil,
ina very comminuted ii n- ,! i" ,i'
exact condition most easily Uimn.i at d
