Central New York as well illosiraies the j
cosmopolitan sources of our nomcticature as
any portion of the L'nl.'O. First we have ihe
grand old Indian names applied to bodies of i
water and to counties such as Mohaw k and :
Oneida and Chenango and Ontario and Seueca '
and Tioga and (Jenegantslet and Ore;o and !
Canastota and Canaseraga and a score ofi
others I have heretofore mentioned. Then i
c..me the Old World names Ureece and Troy j
and Jeru-alem and Marathon and Tyre and ;
Sparta and Jordan and Italy and Oxford and i
Venice and Erin and Coventry and Bath and
Genoa, wuh others before named. Another j
class is that of our early great men Soldiers
and Statesmen of the Revolution, and Presid- j
ents and of la'er characters of genera! or
local influence such (in addition io several
alieady riven) as PeWiti. Fiilfon. Hit. Perry. I
Mjrey. Benton, R he-trr. Srbuyler. Clay Ac.
Names of illustrious Grecians and R onans
are also conspicuous Euclid and Carr.illu
and Aarelius nd l.vsandrr and Caio an 0id
and Tally and Scipio and Fabms and Poinpey
and Sempronius and Hector and Brutus and

love of l.iHer y. and anxious to perpetua'e in
thi manner the sacred tore of men renowned
for h-r.iism or for oiher v:rto. As ihe
countrv fit 1 with pr puU'i. n, and required
new names to l.e i ir.i I those of the prior

On one road the names of stop; tt g places
were not announced the conductors Ac. pro
bably thinking it unnecessary, inasmuch a
they knew every spot -just as easy as ihe boy
knew bis daddy." But even if they are sure
no passenger wishes to leave at a given sta
tion, there are those traveling for pleasore or
for information lo "jhom tbe conductor could
very acceptably vouchsafe a little knowledge
of localities. The Company whose servants
are not too stiff or too stingy to repeat a fact
a thousand times a day if needed or requested,
with correctness, fulness and ch-erfulness, is
ihe company for my cash and makes a route
popular with the people. There were some
popinjay conductors mosily hair and watch
chain who deserve to be impaled for ihe
good of the nomadic steamer and railway pub
lie brusque, haoghty, self sufficient chaps,
who most have been appointed by favor and
not tiy merit, and who disdain to give a man
anything but a demand for his ticket (unless
ihey meet tome great or influential man or a
fellow knave-or-fool to whom they are all dog
and eoortesy ) Employee, on public works
should be at ihe service of all. hot especial y
of ihe inexperienced, the young, the infirm
and the poor, to wh m ihe jusi chamy of a
pleasant wotd. a friendly caution or a useful
hint, when needed or solicited, may be verv
bene6ciaL Tnote stations are finej for the
troei-t gentlemen the most sincere Chris
tian. and shonld be tiled by them.
Calling out a place ought to be dooe with
tome consideration. One aung it out loudly
but u ainu21ijibla aa clap f thunder
another spi ke too low and was not hard
another shouted out the p'are bul ai the same
lime shut to the dorr with a bang looder than
bis messaste while others would clip iheir .
words so short that you could only hear part
of a svllahle r.r two and have lo gue .1 the ;
remainder. One brakesman on the Lacka-
wanna A Great Bend was a model openine !
the door, he held it lo secure atiention, when
he distinctly announced the station, halted a
moment to see if any one had any inquiry to '
m&ke.then gently closed the door and ai-en-ted
lo his ther duties a sensible and thoughtful
voting map. he will soon arise to be President
of the concern.
