A DAY IN THE MovNTars.—We had
a pleasant trip to Waytiesboie Station
on the N. M, IL R. one day last week in
company with a jolly goad friend, Mc. D.
W. Mickley. The Station is much easier
of access than we had supposed. 'lndeed
we have no knowledge of a better moon
taiu road, which is solid and compara
tively easy of ascent, It can however he
much improved with little expense. As
it is four horses are ample to draw one
hundred bushels,of irheat,to the Station.
We remained for sometime at the ware•
house of Messrs. Rouzer & Shover, feast
ing our eyes and imagination upon the
wild beauties that surrounded us, and was
pleased to learn that this enterprising
firm are driving a prosperous and grow
ing business. More accommodating and
n'entlemanly'business men are rarely met
with. At this point the mountain scene
ry is grand, and from which one of the
finest views is afforded, covering a large
area of country to the North and North
west, said to be_not much _excelled_by_
that allbrded from the famous "Franklin
Cliff," ndt far off. Directly in front of
the warehouse is' a well seventy-five feet
in depth, from which the purest water, al
most iee.cold, is obtained. The buildings
however lack one very essential means of
comfort—shade trees—being exposed on
all sides to the scorchin: ra sof the sun.
After fully satisfying our curosity as to
Waynesboro' Station, we withdrew our
"nag" from the bushes and started for
"Beautiful View Springs, at which place
we turned up about 4, P. 11f.. having had
another pleasant drive without encounter
ing a single snake or mosquito. Here,
as usual, we found everything cosy and
comfortable, with many added improve
ments, and a pleasant society, about as
boarders as the house will condor-
tably accommodate, Mr. McCourt—who
has been on the mountain for more than
twenty years, winter as well as summer—
being among the number.
Location and conveniences considered,
Beautiful View Springs as a summer re
sort is excelled by few if any tuvintaiu
houses. A fine spring and bath house
close to the braidings, two wells of excel
lent water in the yard, (one hard and the
other soft' or sulphur) one 'of the finest
grape arbors perhaps in the county, ex-
ma
tending from house to barn, and all other
smounidugs neat aml.trin , avorably_im, -
press the visitor. All that is required to
: • /11 - i ••••3 ;4:rt--i 3
a new building or au enlargement of the
present one, for the' accommodation of
boarders. The worthy host, Mr. V. B.
Gilbert, is always about and leaves no
thing undone to make his guests comfor
table. Supper over, we returned to town
feeling loath indeed to quit so attractive
and pleasant mountain retreat, having
thus passed the pleasantest day of our
"harvest week." •
We purposed a ride since to the Mon
terey and Clermont Houses, on the sum
mit, but failed to carry out our intention,
at both of Which we learn all the rooms
ar . e ° taken for the season. '
THE FOURTH.—On Friday last, 'the
4th of July, business was suspended and
our town partially deserted of citizens.—
Some were out on fishing and hunting
excursions, others visited the Mountain
Houses, whilst the Band with a squad or
citizens at an early hour started for
"Franklin Cliff" or High Rock. It ap
pears that a number of those accompany
ing the Band members from some cause
or other—perhaps from being too overly
patriotic—became separated in the moun
tain, and after wandering through bushes
and brush for five or six hours in search
of the Cliff and their lost companions,
turned up on part of Raven Rock, near
Smithburg. We have received a commu
nication recounting the adventures of the
"lost party," but it. covers almost a dozen
of letter pages, which will account for its
non-appearance. It would be well for those
contemplating visits in that direction in
the future to secure the servi3es of a guide
familiar with the route. The point is dif
ficult to find, but when reached the view
afforded more than compensates the visi
tor.
THEPs.—Sorne wheat was harves
ted in this section as far back as the 28th
ult., but the work was not generally com
menced until about the middle of last
week. The present week will complete
the arduous task. In this, section the
crop is a good one, better it is said than
any gathered since 1863, but a lighter
yield is reported from the northern part
of the county.
Within the past two weeks a marked
change for the better has taken place in
growing oats and corn. .the furmer prom
ises an average crop, and the prospects
for the latter are not discouraging by any
means. • A season so plentiful of th e
earth's products warrant the most pleas-
ant anticipations of better times in store
for all classes, as well as special thanks
giving to the Great Father of all who
so lavishly dispenses these temporal bles
sings.
COPPERITEAD DEN.—inat may sp.,
pear to the reader as a "snake narrative"
is reported for publication. This time
not far from the Clermont. House, on the
mountain. According to our informant,
who is in every . way trustworthy, a den
of eopperhead snakes was discovered there
one day last week, fifty-two in. number,
including only three however that were
fully groan. They were promptly dis
patched.
St.THAFiq DEATH OF AITM. BELL.-It is
with deep anguish we learn that while
Wm. Bell, a farmer residing between
Hunting creek and Fishing creek, at the
widow Myers' well known old tavern
stand on the road from Creagerstown to
Frederick was out in the meadow in- the
early part of last Saturday morning, with
his mowing machine, mowing grass, all at
once he complained of being unwell and
laid down. He called his little girl to his
side, and told her to run to the house and
get some camphor. She complied with
his request, and his wife hurried to his re
lief with the camphor, but he soon swoon
ed away, uttering for his last words 'give
me some camphor,' and before he could
be carried to the house he died. He was
aged 57 years, 2 months and 27 days. He
was an excellent citizen and very indus
trious .man. He leaves a widow and some
four or five children to sorrow at his de
mise. His remains were interred in the
Utica Burying Ground on last• Sunday
evening followed by a large concourse of
relatives and friends. The funeral obse
quies were performed by the Rev. J. Sum
mers of the Lutheran Church.--Clarion.
zgi.Mr. Bell will be remembered by
many citizens as a resident of this vicin
ity. He lived on the farm now owned
and &copied by Henry M. Bess.
t We were-sheron-
Dr. I. N. Snively's buggy, Mr. H. Lat
shaw's patent apparatus for detaching
horses from carriages which is the most
complete safety arrangement we have ev
er seen. If a horse becomes unmanaga
ble or a buggy should break, by pulling
itr- - ,lo- — ide of
a strap along si_ your, seat you can
detach your horse in an instant, thus ma
ny valuable lives may be saved. We do
think in view of so many dadents con
stantly occurring every buggy should have
this attachment, especially when ladies
are driving. We can't help recalling to
mind some painful accidents such as the
killing of the lady in Dr. Kauffman's
buggy, which could have thus been avoid
ed.

COMMENCEISIENT WEEK, LANCASTER,
PA.—The Thirtyeighth Annual Com
mencement of Franklin, and Marshall
College was very properly and appropri
ately opened with the baccalaureate ser
men by the venerable President, J. W.
-Sunday,-June-22d.---
This exercise WAS followed by the address
before the Literary Societies, on Tuesday
evening, by the Hon. James Pollock, ex-
Governor of Pennsylvania, and now con
nected with the United States Mint, Phil
adelphia. On Wednesday, the Alumni
of the College. held their annual meeting
in the College Chapel, disposing of the
business pertaining to their organization.
Previous to this meeting, there were Re
unions of the Literary Societies held in
their respective Halls. After these meet
ihga, came the Alumni Dinner, bountiful:
ly spread by the tiny hands of Lancaster's
fair daughters. Among the distinguished
guests present were seen the manly form of
Gen. 3. F. Rartranft, Governor of Penn
sylvania,-Gen. B. Frank-Fisher,-Prof.-J:
P. Wickersham, State Superintendent of
Public Schools, Hon. J. B. Linn, Deputy
Secretary of the Commonwealth, with a
goodly number of others, illustrious in
church and state. In the evening, our
minds were again feasted with the litera
ry address by W. Leaman, Esq., of Lan
caster Cit delivered before the Alumni
Association. The Commencement exer
cises proper took place on Thursday, at
which time speeches were delivered by
the graduating class, numbering fourteen.
Among the honorary degrees .conferred
was that of D. D. on the Bev, G. B. Bus
sell,—of—Pittsbu rg,—Pa.,— editor— of-Our
Church Paper." Thus ended one of the
most interesting and enthusiastic Com
mencements it has been our privilege to
attend. A VISITOR,
H. & P. R. R.—This formerly much
talked of road—says the Oakville Enter
prise—is again coming into mention, and
it now appears that the work of grading
is commencing in earnest. A large lot of
tools (shovels, picks, quarrying tools, etc.)
arrived at. this place this week, consigned
to the contractors in charge of the work
opposite this place, who, we understand,
want seventy-five hands, and a number of
horses and carts, to go to work at once.-
It will take several months yet to com
plete the large cut at Mc. Holly; that
done, however, the grading will soon be
completed. We learn from a gentleman
connected with the-road-that-the-iron-will--
be laid and the road completed as far as
Mt. Holly, very shortly. Our south side
friends are not to be disappointed in their
expectations, as another year will un
doubtedly find the Harrisburg and Poto
mac railroad extending from river to riv
er.
• lerWe extract the following from a
truthful
. exchange : It is a great pity that
so many mantumakers are such poor
judges of the length of their customers.—
Two-thirds of the dresses of their patrons
are made apparently for huge giants.of
women instead of dear little ducks not
much bigger than a flour barrel ; conse
quently great lengths of stuff are dragged
through the putrid quids, filthy gutters,
dust and dirt of the streets. It is strange
that cleanly women do not revolt against
such extravagant and distasteful dress
makers.
FATAL ACCIDENT.-A young man a
bout nineteen or twenty years of age nam
ed Henderson hailing, it is said, from New
York city was killed on Wednesday of
last week at Weverton Junction. • He
slipped in attempting to get upon a train
that was passing, and falling beneath the
wheels was almost instantly crushed to
death.
far The telegraphic despatches tell a
woful tale of a fearful storm df wind and
rain which swept through the west on
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday last.—
Its limits are not precisely defined, but
we hear of it extending northward to Min
nesota, thence eastward through Wiscon
sin, lowa, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio, southward into Kentucky and west
ward to the birders of Kansas. Build
ings and forests were leveled to the ground
by the mighty force of the tornado, the
standing growth of the crops was swept a
way like chaff before the wind, the rivets
were flooded and inundated the adjacent
country, the railroads were interrupted
and the telegraph wires blown down for
miles upon miles. The storm seems to
have gained its extreme power at various
points at different times, but its general
tendency was towards a culmination on
Friday. The storm centres were variable,
and were determined as if the hurricane
were divided up into a number of cyclones,
each embracing a certain extent of terri
tory. The amount of damage, if the first
accounts are net overstatements, must be
immense. Throngh the vast stretch of
country embraced, the wheat, corn and
other cereals were either just ready for the
sickle or were within a week of ripening.
Their value represented millions of dollars,
and it is only to probable that the yield
will now be but a fraction of what it would
have been hut. for the destroying agent
which has devastated the fertile fields.—
More definite intelligence of the disaster
will be eagerly awaited, and if its propor
tions are as immense as reported it can
not but have a sad effect upon that coun
try. .
—The Tomstown "cherry train" has
been on time every clay for the last week.
sa.Prof. Wise, the seronant, says the
Harrisburg Telegraph, evidently means
business in regard to that balloon trip to
Europe. He had a chance to retire grace
fully, from the field_with_his_prospective_
laurels when Boston buttoned up her pock
et after the second Einrching she git a few
weeks ago. But_the gallant_profmorhav,
ing insisted that he was full of faith and
only wanted means to enable him to try
the experiment, friends and patrons are
not wanting, and he may have his chance
yet.
The Daily Graphic,' of New York, has
been the Proffessor's most devoted cham
pion all along. It has endorsed his plan
and urged its readers to help make a fund
for his grand experiment, starting a sub
scription list itself with a liberal sum.—
The appeal has nbt been in vain, and now
the building of the mammoth , balloon
has begun under the supervision of Wise
himself. The trip will be made it is said
some time in August by the professor and
his young disciple, Donaldson,
CHEAP. &Gen.—The Pittsburg Dis
patch says : It will be gratifying to all.
consumers of sugar to learn thsitthe pros
pect is that for some time to come the sup
ply will be abundant, thus causing cheap
prices. The American Grocer says that
the sugar crops in all producing countries
re ver arse. The beet root su
duction of Europe will yield eleven hun
dred thousand tons, a crop that is one-fifth
larger than last year's.. The increase will
go far towards supplying the European
market, and will lessen the demand there
for American sugar, so that a greater a
-mount—than ever—before-will-seek a sale
in the country, and keeping prices low
during the summer. These effects have
already been plainly visible for some time.'
BLAOKBERY WINE.—The blackberry
is used for medical purposes, particularly
for disease of the bowels, we therefore
copy the following plan, used by Swiss
settlers in the United States, and it is said
to make the most excellent wine': To one
bushel of berries put two gallons of water,
and explSs the juice; to each gallon of
the liquid add one pound of white refined
sugar. Put into a cask a peck of freshly
burned charcoal,broken into small pieces;
then pour the liquid upon it. Let , it

until January or later, then rack off and

• Near Polo, 111., June 23d, 1873, Mrs.
BARBARA NEWCOMER, wife o f Daniel
Newcomer, sen., formerly of this vicinity,
aged 73 years 5 months and 9 days.
The subject of this notice suffered in
tensely with Neuralgia for three months
before her departure. In the midst of all
her agony is body, her mind was clear,
and her faith in Christ, undimmed by a
single cloud. The sun of life set calmly,
while from her lips, already pinched by
the icy hand of death, burst forth the tri
umphant words, "Canaan is now in view!"
Quiet, reserved and inoffensive, she lived
to do others good without ostentation or
show. Her life was a sweet unruffled
stream of patient and consistent ehristian
love, that was wholly wrapped up and
lost in the great sun of moral excellence,
Jesus Christ, her Friend -and Redeemer.
Her life on Earth is closed, but though
dead she yet' speaketh. The memories
that cluster around her precious life will
live in the affectionate sympathies o f
friends, and not be . forgotten in the Eter•
nity of God. M.
