The Temperance Sermon or discourse deliv
ered by the Rev. P. Coombe, of Philadelphia, in the
Methodist and Presbyterians Churches of this place
on Sunday last, gave a very general satisfaction to
the friends of temperance here. His audience in the

largest ever assembled at that house. The Dr. is a
forcible and convincing speaker; taking strong
grounds, he boldly attacks the entire llncense sys
tern of the State." and denounce? It a sin against God
and a crime against humanity.

Railroad Mcetiiig.--A Meeting of the citizens
of Montrose. Dimoek. Springville, and Tunklian
iH'ck, convened at Springville, F'eb. lath 1809. Not
one-half of tho*e tn attendance could be accomoda
ted in the School Uou?e.
The Meeting was called to order. Benjamin Parke,
Esq.. was railed to the chair. Ira Avery, Esq., of
Tunkhnnnock, and David Wakclee, Esq., of Spring
ville. were appointed Seerataries.
I 'a taking the chair. Mr. Parke made some re
mark'. ,-tating the object of the meeting, to consult
in relation to a Railroad through the central part of
Susquehanna County, to connect with the Lehigh
\ alley Rail Road on the South, and the New York
Kail Road at Bingamton, on the North. That the
lnrie,- number convened, evineed that they felt an in
'''r> : in the matter, and argued well for Its, being
carried out. He then spoke of the value of Kail
toal.- in the developcment and business of the
' nnty, and in increasing the price and value of all
kiri'ts oi property, as proved by the hltory of the
rn't thirty years. He sjioke of this Road as a con
necting link, meeting at Hingaiuton the Road to
Abany and to Syracuse, and connecting them with
tic- Lehigh Valley and all connecting roads leading
south and southwest to New firleans; predlct
lr - that when made, It would carry five times as
many pa -engers, as does the Railroads east of us,
wad that the stock would be a good Investment.
Mr. Tyler of Montrose, read an interesting letter
* r m Hon. B. S. Bently, accepting the Presidency of
the organization, on condition of its being nn active
"•.'king company.
The meeting was addressed by Messrr. Chamber
lain and Tyler, of Montrose, and by Messrs. Avery
Mark, and Palcn, of Tunkhannoek, by Mr. Walker,
ft liitnock, Mr. Blakcslee, of fSpringvlllc. All the
speakers from, Tunkhannoek, agreeing in opinion,
that the grades from Tunkhannoek to Mesphoppen,
*"uld much exceedj feet per. mile.
Air Parke then read the following, which was
"tiaUmously adopted.
"Believing that a Railroad through the central
part of our County, connecting with the Lehigh
k alley R. R. at, or near Tunkhannoek. on the
M"ath, and the New York R. R. at Binghamton, on
worth, will la- a great public convenience and
•*"etn, and the means of private advantage and
profit to all living near where it may be located'
appreciating the munificent proposal of our for
•aer neighbor and fellow cltlien, Hog. Asa Packe,
"that if the citizens of tlii* County, ami those who
live near the route of caiil Railroad, will raise the
fund* and graiic ahil prepare tlie bed of tlie road for
the ties ami rails, he will cause the same to he fur
ni.-hc l ; nutting on the rolling Stock. Cars. Engine*.
Sc., thrfs opening tho Rood for freight and travel
thereon."
Now in order to aid and forward this project, it it
by this meeting resolved, that three persons in each
Township here represented, be appointed to call up
on the citizens thereof, and obtain releases of th<>
right of way and subscriptions to the Stock of Mid
Koad ; and to report the same to the Kxuctive Com
in it tec appointed at the late Railroad Meeting in
Montrose.

At the Railroad .Meeting at Fpringvillc last
week, Mr. Parke stated that he went to llarrisburg
before any Railroad, 'or passenger travel was
built in Pennsylvania, and resided there till lsik),
when the Southern part of this State and the West
to the Mississippi was a net work of Railroads.—
That although a single railroad though a tow n add
ed largely to its business, and was of great benefit,
yet that ajunction road added far more to the busi
ness enlargement and growth of a town, than the
first or through road, from its making it a place oi
stopping and transhipment to a greater or less ex
tent, requiring the erection of ware-houses, work
shops, and hotels, tc. and men to attend them.
A glance at the mapshowing the lines of Railroads
North and South of us. will demonstrate the im]s>r
tance ot the link proposed to be made from Tunk
hannock via Montrose to Binghamton. At Bing
hsmton we meet the new road just opcned'.to Albany,
where roads from Canada, Vermont, New Hamp
shire and Massachusetts—centre draining as it were
the whole Northeast of our Continent. We also
meet at liinghamton, not only thqol. Y. and Eric
R. R., but also the Railroad to Oswego on Eakr
Ontario.—crossing at Syracuse the N. Y. Cen
tral, and then arms, by road and
steamboats both North and West. Now when we
recollect the distance from Tunkhannock to liing
hamton around the river by Towandsi, and then
look at the short link across from here, will it not he
seen that all who wish a direct line to and from the
South, will patronize thts route. Then, thous
ands will inhale the. pure mountain airot Susquc
hannah County, and see our flourishing and daily
grow ing towns, with the wild scenery of tin- Susque
hannuh and the classic vale ot Wyoming, who other
wise would have lieen obliged to have traveled fur
ther and through a much less interesting country.—
It was therefore, jicrhaps weil that Mr. Parke in his
remarks.at the Springville meeting gave hotel-keep
ers notiee, that as soon as this Raiiroad was com
pleted. they must have both enlarged and better ac
commodations. lor hundreds if riot thousands from
the cltiu* would prefer a visit here, to being crowd
ed and over-charged at the tashionablc watering
places.
THE LENTEN SEASON. —The solemn : fa
son of Lent commence!l ou "Wednesday
last (Asli Wednesday.) It is typical of the
great events in the life of Christ his fasts,
his humiliation ami passion, ending with
his death and glorious resurrection—being
observed by the Episcopalian and Catholic
Churches. The ornaments arc removed
from the altar, and the music bcconc -s sad.
solemn andhcart-subduiug. But, although
the season i.-> eminently penitential, sons
of the ceremonies which mark its special
days arc marvellously giana. '"The Tcne

removed, to call to vivid r l.iembrance the
List scene on the cross ; and then a great
noise is heard, to signify the commotion of
the world at the awful event.
The solemnity of the season of Lent in
Episcopal Churches is marked by penten
tial services which are alike solemn, beau
tiful and impressive. The collects, epistles
and gospels of the day arc scriptural and
liturgical reminders of the scenes of Christ s
sufferings and death. The grand music
which marks the festival of triumph of the
church is not permitted during the great
fast which ends on Holy Sunday.

THE reason that Eastman s Waterproof Boots
are impervious to water is that they aro linod

scriOf of years, an 1 umoug in o>t of Iho races of

Although settled Consumption is thought in

1 fHwji rs and i'NUio .Sj>c akerr liad great pro

Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.

Chrrri/ Pectoral . t m .!! and frequent (loses.

Zinc, nor any other mineral orpoi oinm-> vubbtancp

number nnd importance of it- enreg in the ague dis

without a parallel in the history of Ague medicine.
Our pride is g:uAUxl by the acknowledgments we
receive of the radioid cures effected in obstinate
cages, and where other remedies had vrhollv failed.
Unaceliinated persons, either resilient in, or
travelling throngfi miasmat!- localities, will be pro

Tor Jjfrer Complaints, arising fVoni torpidity
, of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimulating

For Bilious Disorders and Lh er Complaints, it is
an excellent remedy, producing many truly re
markable cures, where other medicines had failed.
