Kurtz Esq.; Pear Bir: In my former letter I promised you I would keep.your readers posted in regard to what transpires in this country, but it seems as though I can scarcely get time enough to-coblect any items that would iméerest your readers. We have had our share of rain so far this spring. however, everything bids fair for boun- tifa} crops; this is a very pleasant town and is improving rapidly, there is- a great deal of business done here.- "There are five dry goods stores, two’ boot and shoe stores, three groceries two hardware stores, one confectionary: and. one tobacco store,and all doing well, three grain and one farm ma- chine store, one foundry, one steam grist mill, six churches, two lumber yards, two blacksmith shops, and: in fact every. branch of business is well represented here. Sinee I.wrote to you Centre - Se —— eo —— Inst, several eastern families have ar- tived and settled in 4d around this place. Landis advancing in price daily. I heard a man say, a few days ago, that he sold his farm for forty dol- tars an acre, and that he offered il last fall fof twenty five dollars and could not find a purchaser. If thére had been forty or fifty Centre codnty Boys here this spring they could have found etiploymant on farms at from thirty to forty-five dollars per month. There are plenty of chanés fof Mboring men but those who come from the east ex- putting to obtain a situation in a store will be disappointed, for I will venture to say that there is not old ehurk Bevd- ed now, as this branch of trade is fully supplied: I read the article signed “Tussey Mountain Boy,” in which he paid his respects to “O. P. M.” of Le- na Ill, and said he hoped he would furnish the balance of the Bear story | [ calt wily say that for the present, 4 Bear-story is “to be continued.” I was glad to hear front old friviids from the Loop mentioned itt his letter, and I hope the Cul. will still eolitinue to pros- per, 88 the Cul: aiid i fre patticala friends, having éWjoyed the hospitali. ties of the Cols hollse very often: I hope Heimbach aiitl Wagner are still some on the fish ¢iléstion; and I sup- pose that D. K: QO. is still a Petitisvnl: ley farmer and doing well; if this meets his eye, he will perhaps think that his name has been taketh ii Vail § But { must travel to the other side of the val- ley and pay my respects to numerous friends there. ‘Thefe was a convention held here to nominate a candidate for Congress from this distritt; but 1 did not hear whether Mr. Homan, G. W. F. Gray, or Meiss hand received the nominativn; but T natiFilly ihfer from their silence that they were nowhere in the convention ; this is not as it should be, for we want honest men to gb to Congress. How does Buffalo Run val- ley prosper? ;Cannot some one enlight- en us through the toliims of the Re- porter, what the prospect for fruit and grain are. Wheat commands one dol- lar per bushel here. There hus been as high #s tei cir loads of graii ship- ped from this place in one day. It would astonish one from the east to be here and see the stiirdy settlers pulling up stakes, selling out and nidkiilg fof Kansas and Iowa j thete i8 i large em- igration #0 these two places this spring. People lief dy tut call this the west, they call it west when they talk of go: ing to the far west, but I have left the subject, for I #arit to talk to some of my old friends for fear they may think I do not keep my word, as { promised they shonld hear from me through the Reporter Well to begin; ¥ #ill aa¥ ty Gh Ww.

If the farmers of Centre county, (I mean those in lim- ited circumstances;) were to pay a vis- it to this cotintFy at this sesoit of the year, they would be perfectly delighted with it; but truth to tell; had they ar- rived here when I did, eafly ih the spring; they would have thought differ- ent; the mud here is a very peculiar thing, different from the esstern; fot itstarice; a strangef tofiting here in dry weather, would find all very nice, but if it rains ten minutes and then stop | and you go out; be caréfiil, oF Foi will loose yotit tihderstanding, as I came very near doing; it seems as though the mud was greased, bit & f&w hours sun- shine and the mud disappears as if by magic; and of one thing I feel satisfied that there ave met in Ceiifre county to dy; Who are barely earning a com- petence for’ themselves and families, who if they wete'iti'the west; wowld ir | a few yemrs Be tHe porsessors of forty #hd perhaps eighty acre farms, There are men here now, who say that they never would have been worth what they are, had they. stayed in the east ; when Ifirst arrived here I came to the conclusion that I' had got to the wrong- place, for this reason, viz., every n that Emet-had-a lot or proper- ty to sell,-and Fof cotiree took it for granted'that it was a poor place; not so, however, the reason all want to sell is this ; they buy a:lot, build a heuse on it:and then sell it at aigood ‘profit, buy and build again ; but I will not occupy much more of your space for the pres: ent.

In my next I will give you a short discription of the nofthern part of Missoni. 0. P. Mortox, - A idem For the Reporter. Mg. Eptror: [I ndticed 2 commu- nication in your paper last week, in which your correspondent intimates, that a party of young ladies and gents went on a Pic-nic excursion from this vicinity, and came back supperless, and it is quite probable that I was a neni ber BF the party; and know a thing or two about it myself. jronounce is statement false and utterly without Hilt hon 1 in doing so, however, I do not wish to intithitté that he has been guilty of stating a willful falsehood-~ as he was not present and consequently did not know for a certainty whether the pasty retire supptrless or not— but being a green “Tussey Mountain Boy,” he has undoubtedly been victim- ized by some one who merely told him the story, to practice on his credulity. Hence; Mr. Editor, I beg leave to use i Bitlitl] space in your paper, for the purpose of undeceiving him. THE ap- parent pity he expressed for the lady teliibers of that party was misplaced, as they were not brought back “supper- less, hungry and thirsty ;” on the con- trary Huth fides and gentlemen were regaled with an elegant supper and after all had sumptously feasted, there was yet enough remaining on the table to sibisfy evel the cravijig of the hun. gry “Tlissey Motintain By.” Though undoubtedly judging from the nierits of the articles which are occasionaly ilflicted upon the readers of the Re- porter, by him, he hid Blicceeded in cultivating his eating propensities to a higher degree of excellence than his mental abilities, and nature has vouchsafed to Him a greater capacity for eating sour krout (Tussey Moun- tain diet) than corresponding even for a county newspaper. Notwithstand- ing all this, there was enough left to satisfy even his appetite ; and suppose we wollld have bedn able to prdcure six quarts of those fruits of agricultiite; he spike bout, if he is that way inclined, or belongs to the long eared class of “individuals” who are said to be re- markably fond of oats. And now, my dear little “Tussey Mountain Boy,” allow nic in conclusion; ti give you a little sound advice: Don’t believe all youl hear, and if you do want to dis- tingtish yourself, by writing for the paptfe, stick to your “Ewig Yeager,” and other 10 Mtemnpg; dic do not ven- ture to far within the pales of civilza- tion, among scenes you know nothing of. HEiouLes. Ff the Bepovter. JacksosvinLg, Jiixt 19th 1869. Dear Evrror: If the nucleus of flith at Liberty who could not refrain from writing in the ¢ve poptli of tht National, and making an exposition of Bi itine his entire ungequaintance with decency, had as much regard for the truth; as he had impudence and slang phrase; he might have subsctibed Himself veritas with a limiting adjunct to that effect, We have no desire to know the exact loeality int which Ha is permitted to be- foul the undoulitedly fist degerivtatitg nitrals ; or to identify him in the filth with which he surrounds himself, (which would not require an over sen- sitive olfactory ;) bitt Would most cet- tainly find him the centre of some dis- gusting effete, political organization, endeavoring to promulgate itself by tampering, with its foul hands, with art office far above its reach, and writing for a county paver; whose chief prom- ihenee is somewhere enveloped in its name. No wonder honest republicans would be disgusted with stich vile ex- cresence. Verily it wasso; the last election for the supéfintendency was an evidence of radical reform. : Such is the character who would im- pte ignorance to Pennsvalley direc: tors. But to whom? do his imputa- tions logically refer? We are informed that there is a majority of ten republi- cant school directors in €entre county. Ifsuch is the case, twenty eight repub- licans voted for Mr. Magee; and the persons who “voted ignorance to their offspring,” must have been “truly loil” or Mr. Magee wowld not have been elected. But tliese aie all unsophisti- cated, says the National. Whata set of dupes the republican party must be, This noddy asserts that we exhorted Pennsvalley not to vote for republi- cans, or Bellefonters, as school direc: tors. As might he expected from such a souree, this is a nefarious falsehood- Citizens-of Pennsvalley are not so ig- norant as Veritas proves himself to be with regard ‘to school law; or so desti- tute of intelligence as to elect residents of Bellefonte as diwectors in Penusval- te A ie - in Bel efonte by the chdtcter of the writings of Veritas, we are of the opin- ion that it will require all their surplus brains, after writing a letter for the National, to manage theif dWn school affuirs, But; if fépublicans with as much discretion as those who elected the present incumbent can be found, we say, elect them. We had thought thay Biainlesas cat- tle were among physical impossibilities but Veritas, certainly can produce honest claims of being the only living example of this phenomenon. Write to Barium, and he will place your name as a gem in the catalogue of his wonders ; and you need never again wiité for the National to announce this distinction. And now let nlé say td you; Eoipts ible sprig, do not write again during the hot weather, or you will betray your whereabouts, and very much dis- comiildde any person in your locality who may still be uncontaminated with yourself. STUDENT. STICKING TO THE TRUTH Two weeks ago, on board an Eng- lish steamer, a little ragged boy, aged HihE years, was discovered on the fourth day of the outwdfd ¥oyiige from Liverpool to New York, and car- ried before the first mate, whose duty it was to deal with such cases. When questioned as to the object of his being stowed away; aiid whe jrought hin oH Badr, the boy, who tad a bedutiful sunny face, and eyes that looked like the very mirrors of truth, replied that his stepfather did it, because he could not #fford to keep him, nor to pay his passage out to Halifax, where he had an aunt who was well off, and to whose house he was going. The mate did not believe the story, in spite of the winnirlg fitce and truthful accents of the boy. He had seen foo much of stow-aways to be easily deceived by them, he said ; and it was his firm con- viction that the boy had beeh brought on board and provided with food by the silors. The little fellow was roughly handled in consequence. Day by day he was questioned and requestioned but always with the sante result. He did not kiiow 4 diildF oi board, and his father alone had secreted him and given him the food which he ate. At 12 the mate, wearied by the boy's persistance in the same story, and perhaps a little anxious to incul- pate the sailors, seized him one bay by ihe olla; and dragging hind to tHE fore, told hini, tHat unless he cotiféssed the trutht in ten minutes from that tinte lte would hang him on the yard arm, He then miade him sit down uu- der it on the deck. All around him were the passengersand the sailors of the riideday watch, aud i ffont of him stood the inexorabile mate, with his chronometer in his hand, and the other officers of the ship by his side. It was the finest sight, said our infor- mint, thdt we had ever leheld—to det the pale, proud, sorrowful face of that noble boy, his head erect, his beauti- ful eyes bright through the tears that suffused them. When eight ifinutes had fled, the mate told hint he Hud but two more mniutes to live, and ad- vised him to speak the truth and save his life ; but he feptied; with the ut- most simplicity and sincerity, by ask- ing the mate if he might pray. The mate said nothing, but nodded his howd; itd ttirried as pale as a ghost, and shook with trembling like n reed with the wind. And there, all eves turned on him, this brave and noble tele fellow, thfis poor waif whony soci- ety owned not, ard whose own stepfa- ther could not care for him—there he knelt with elasped hands and eyes up- raised to heaven, while he repeated audible the Lord's Prayer; did pray- od the dear Ford Jesusto take him to heaven. Our informant adds that there then occurred a scene as of Perrtecost. Sobs broke from strong, hard heats; as the mate sprang forward to the boy and clasped him to his bosom and kiss- ed him and blessed him, and told him how sincerely he now belived his story and how glad he was that he had been brave enough to face death and be, willing to sacrifice his life for the truth of his own word. ts eeratlliineill- not be injured when others think little of you. - > The farmers in Lehigh county are cutting grass preparatory. to- making hay.

An elderly gentleman, accustomed to ‘IHdulge;” entered the room of a certain tavern, where sat a grave Friend by the fire. Lifting a pair of green spectacles upon his forchead, rubbing his inflamed eyes, and ealling fit Hot britndy and water, he complain- ed to the Friend that “his eyes were getting weaker, and that even specta- cles did not do them any good.” “I'll tell thee, friend,” said the Quaker, “hae 1 inink: If thie were to wear thy spectacles over thy mouth for a few monthe; thy eyes would get well again.” -—y The amount to be raised by taxa- tiutt il New York, during the present year, for the use of [he tity government is $5,455,498, In Philadelphia the amount required to be provided for by taxation is $8,622,726.
