"CENTRE HALL REPORTER. Or Cuxrre Haun, Pa, April 1st, 1870 An act authorizing the appointment of commissioners ito run and mark the boundary lincs betwebn the counties of Union, Centre, Mifliin_and Snyder, passed the House, at Harrisburg a few days a_o. A (. Movement for a New County. The peopleof Rush twp, this coun- ty, are agitating the matter of forming a new county, with the growing town of Philipsburg, for the county seat, or, failing in tha t, to seceede from old Cen- tre and tack en. to Clearfield, which would afford them a ‘very convenient county seat. The following from the Philipsburg Journal, of last week, gives the refisons for this movement: On Monday evening Jast a meeting was held in this borough, at the store of G. 8. Flegal, to introduce a move- ment Tor hep ranization of a new county, Wwith-Philipsburg for the coun ty sab a, otherwise to petition the Legislature ta hie a part of Rush twp. struck off: from Centre and an- nexed to Clearfield county. The ma jority of our citizens are in favor of one or the other project.” ‘Some are of the opinign that it is a feasible project to organize a new county, to include the tegritory extending from the Blair county line, along Sandy ridge, to the head waters of the Black Moshannen, thence across Moshannon to the high ridge. ealled the first axis line of the Alleghanies, and along that ridge, by Turner's. summit, to the upper waters of Clearfield creek, at the Cambria county line. On an examination of the maps it is believed that the requisite number of squara. miles .would be in- cluded in this nefwral boundary, and that less than one tenth of the popula. tion of either.» Centre or Clearfield county: /avould be. included therein, thereby: remdering it unnecessary to re- sort to. awvote of the people in either Centre or Clearfield. By showing these facts it is believed the .Legislature would-hotior the petition of a people so, remote and cutoff, by natural barriers, from their present county town, and so unanimous in favor. of the project. Further, this is destined speetlil y to be- come. populous mining district, de- manding a thorough home government where business transactions can be promptly attended to, the laws prompt- lv adaministered, their violation check- ed aud punished, and indust: y, encour- agedads bsdossis vBobd organization of a new county . airs is impeacti s+ then let us have seces- sion and-annexation to Clearfield. At present it takes -as much time to go to our’coulity town and returnas to go to Philadelphia. A quick trip-en bu- siness requiring “only fifteen “minutes in an"office, will require an expense of about ten “dollars, or else we must: adopt the ‘economy of the Scotch high! lander and take a “hunk of bread and meat” in our pocket and eat it by the wayside. If annéxed to Clearfield county we can go, transact business and return the same day, with but little expense, except hotel bills, which are a little steep. We.are of the opinion then, ard it appears to be the prevail- ing ope with-our citizens here, that we should strike for a new county, and if we should fail in that, then to go in for annexation to Clearfield. A committee has been ap further the project-and-we sha ably soon hear from them. We may add here, that a revival of the movement. for a new county on this side, is daily becoming mere visible. Some ‘téri “yéars ago the people of Pennsyalley (the seven townships) were a mit. for the formation of a new county, did abill to’ further the pro- ject acthally passed the: Jower House at Harrisburg.

He has made a treaty with Baez, who stipulates to trausfer to at: Grant,is-resolved on mark- this country that portion of the island aver which he dominates, for the sums of $1,500,000. General Babeock, one of the President's private Secretaries, has visited tne island and made the bargain, “assisted by two real estate speculators named O’3ullivan and Fa- bens, Nothing now remains except for the Senate of the United States to ratify the treaty, and we have at once a country containing 17,836 square mile, and a population of about 125,- 000 negroes and mulattoes, who have been engaged in continual civil war ever since the acknowledgement of their independence by Spain iw 1865. Forney says the price to be paid for this territory on its most Yostialine population is a “mere bagatelle.” He advocates the scheme with all the zeal which he once displayed for $2,000 in gold in the case of Alaska. His elo- quence is as fervid and exuberant in descanting on the cotton fields and su- gar plantations of San Domingo, as it was chaste and pure when advocating the purchase from Russia of the ice- bergs of the pole. So seductive is his advocacy of the ratification of the treaty that the hurricanes and toroa- does of the tropics become attractive, and must make the people long for an- nexation. The population will be so admirable for more reconstruction ex- periments, A new State can be form ed at once, offering new fields for the ambition of northern political adven- turers, new that the Soutern fsople are manifesting the strongest determina- tion to shake off the Deweeses, Whit- temores, Abbots, and the rest of their corrupt and imbecile carpet bag mas- ters. Annexation will give the rads two new Senators, no matter whether white or black, and a member of the House, and Baez and his ring will receive $1,500,000, minus what will stick to the fingers of the negotiators, and be re et in securing the ratifi- cation of the treaty.” er ly lp Letter from Nebraska. LaxcoLx, Neg., March 20th, 1870. Editor Reporter—Respect. Sir.—I am constantly receiving inquiries about Nebraska. To save labor I have pre- pared the following general statement for the Reporter. . The climate is very healthy, The atmosphere is pure and dry. The prai- rie winds are at times unpleasant, but, with an abundance of bright sunshin- ing days, delightful weather prepon- derates. Incipient consumption and rheumatism disappear before the dry air of the prairies. The surface 1s chiefly rolling prairie, with level bot- tom lands along the streams; parts of the uplands are quite level. The soil is very fertile. It is a dark loam nat- urally dry; never becoming water soaked and remaining so for months like some of the clay sub-soil prairie at the east; consequently it never bakes and it withstands drought wonderfully well. It can be plowed or cultivated within a day or two after the heaviest aaws, The productiveness of the soil equals that of the best elsewhere, Its spring wheat excels both in quality and. quantity. Corn, rye, barley, oats and all kinds of vegetable do well Stock of all kinds thrive. The wild grasses are not quite equal in yield per acre, but far better in quality than on the prairie farther east. Fruits as far as tried, do well. ~ Peaches thrive and bear abundantly in the southern part of the state. Osage, for hedges, does well in the southern part of the state. Coal is found in abundance in Pawnee and Johnson counties, and has been discovered in other counties. Stone of good quality is quarried in may local- ities. There is on ledge of large ex- tent and great value, near Beautrice, in Gage county. Bricks of excellent quality are made in the interior as well as along the river. Timber is scarce, but enough for present purpose, and it grows with great rapidity when plan- ted. The roads are good, never re- maining muddy for any considerable length of time. A United States Land office is located here, and one at Bea- trice, 40 miles south in this district, which is within the limits of the Rail- road land grants ; there are no govern- ment lands for sale, but homesteads of 80 acres each, and pre-emptions of 160 acres can be had —some within ten or fifteen miles of Lincoln. Outside of “Railroad limits” homesteads of 160 aeres can be had, but none with tim- ber short of 75 miles from the Missouri river. In railroad limits pre-emptors had to pay $2,50 per acre; outside, $1,25, and purchasers at private entry pay the same price. It is not safe to enter land without examination as to quality. The usual fee of land agents for selecting and entering is $25 per 160 acres. Government fees for homesteads $14,00, for pre emptions #3. Homesteaders get title to their land by actual residence for five years. Preemptors must make improvements om, ad pay for their land within one year from date of occupation, Agri cultural College script can no lovger be used to enter lands within Nebraska, The fee of land agents for selling real estate, is 5 per cent. for 81,000 and 2} per cent for the excess over $1,000, Private lands bring various prices, say from 33 to $15 per acre for unim- proved. The highest figures rule near the Missouri river and the larger vil- lages. Unimproved lands, within a mile of Lincoln command $50 to $100 per acre; one to three miles, $15 to $50 per acre, and from three to ten miles, 34.t0. 320. Pricesare good. The im- migration ks so great that there is a brings from 29 to 30 per cent. inte esl; unexpressed, i 10 per eent. ; and by eoutraet, 12 per cent, by law, . Wages Girls to do housework, $3 per week. Day laborers, 82 per day ; Carpenters, $3 to $3.50; plasterers, masons, and stone cutters, $4 to $6 per day. Wood $6 per cord. The people of this place retty ka to the market, east and west. Lin. coln is the State capital; all the state institutions are located here. As a future railroad and:business centre its prospects are of the very best. “The town is but 30 months old. It has 1,600 inhabitants and is growing rap- idly, The Methodist Episcopal, Con- gregational, Methodist Protestant, Episcopal, and Roman Catholic churches have organizatitions. The M. E, M. P, Cong, and Catholic churches have houses of worship. The Presbyterians, Baptists, Episcopalians and Christians will build Ly Besides these, the Lutherans, and German Methodists, have lots donated by the state for church purposes, There are two newspapers, the States. man, Democrat, ir Commonwealth, republican. Yours respectfully, MALLORY. Formerly of Rebersburg, Pa. il i emnniens The hughest thing that has taken place, in the way of legislation for many years, in this State, has been witnessed during the past week. A bill was introduced into the Senate and rushed through both Houses within four days, which takes six millions of the Pennsylvania railroad bonds, and three and a half millions of the bonds of the Allegheny railroad, oyt of the sinking fund, and gives them to rail- roads not yet constructed, taking in lieu thereof the bonds of the different roads to be built.—The Pennsylvania railroad bonds, to the amount of six millions, go to the Jersey Shore, Pine Creek and Buffalo railroad, to con- struct a line from Jersey Shore, in Liy- coming county, to some point in M'- Kean county, to connect with the Buff: alo and Washington railroad. The Allegheny Valley railroad bonds, to the amount of three and a half millions, are distributed as follows: To the Pitts. burg, Virginia and Charleston compa- ny, one million six hundred thousand, to construct a railroad between South Pittsburg and Greensboro’, in Green county; to the Clearfield and Buffalo company one million four hundred thousand, to construct a road from Clearfield county to M’Kean county ; to the Erie and Allegheny company, five hundred thousand dollars, to con- struct a railroad between the city of Erie and the Atlantic and Great Wes tern railroad. In the case of the Jersey Shore, Pine Creek and Buffalo railroad, the bonds substituted for those taken out of the sinking fund, are to be a first mortgage on the road, and in the other eaces a second mortgage, with the first mortgage limited to sixteen thousand dollars per mile. It is stip- ulated that the road shall be comple- ‘ted and in running order within three years, and that the payment of the in- terest, at five per cent. per annum, up to the time of the completion of the roads, shall be guaranteed by the Pennsylvania, Northern Central or Reading railroad company. It is claimed that by the construc- tion of these roads some of the richest natural resources of Pennsylvania will be develo of traffic will be opened that will add immensely to the wealth and prosper- ity of the State. By the Jeresy Shore, Pine Creek and Buffalo line a commu- nication will be opened with the im- portant lake port of Buffalo and Phil- adelphia some eighty miles shorter than any existing route. It is thought that by this means a large portion of the grain trade of the west from Chi- cago will be directed towards Penn’a and the rich coal and iron fields of M’ Kean, Potter, Tioga and Lycoming will receive a development that will render that section one of the richest in the State. But whether Pennsylva. nia, in its present financial condition, can afford to take out of the sinking fund—a fund considered sacred for the payment of the public debt—bonds of roads that have a marketable value; and are at any time available, and ex- change them for bonds on roads that have as yet no actual existence, is a question that at least admits of a diff erence of epinion. a > This week’s Republican speaks of J. G. Meyer, P. G. Meek, and Fred’k Kurtz, as kaving disgraced their coun- ty as members of the state legislature. Men, like Brown, who live in glass houses, should not throw stones. In our humble opinion, all of the aforesaid gentlemen leave much cleaner records than did Brown. when he went out as county treasurer, with twenty bail men stuck; and haunted hy a $15,000 defalcation; rans MY pn MPs — Just THE DrerErENCE~Roger B. Tangy was U. 8. Chief Justice for 25 years, He entered upon the duties of the office a poor man, and died leaving his family of daughters literally with: out a penny. Two of them are clerks, and thus earv alivelihood. Mr. Stan- ton left a wife and son in full health, a life insurance of $75,000, to say nothing of $100,000 raised by private subscription. Radical newspapers with all their clamor for economy, support a gift of $6,000 for the Stanton famil y. Had it been Tany’s poor daughters in- stead of Stanton’s well-off family, they would have “died first,” and such is the difference between Racical preaching and practice. rm ll tle Mee sd Guatemala. advices state that th revolution is over, and the chiefs of the rebellion have ‘been captured or shot.

Claflin & Co, are at loggerheads over the sale of unbleached muslins and Merrimack prints. Stewart has thrown upon the market vast quantities of Merrimack at ten cents per yard, while the manu- facturers themselves charge twelve. The Merrimack men struck his name from their books, and refused to sell him any more goods. ' He ‘is reported to have immediately produced a sup- ply through a Philadelphia firm, and there is a terrible flutter among the dry goods people who declare that if Stewart persists in his present course he will ruin pretty much every impor- ter and jobber in the city. am Rg The cable from Aden, Arabia, and through the Red sea to Suez, Egypt, has been successfully laid, thus completing a direct submarine line from Bombay to Suez. The comple- tion of the Indo-European line was an- nounced a few dayvsago.. This is still another route destined to be the thoroughfare of the far east. The bus- iness line will be open to the public in a day or two, asda il The Board of Directors of the Sun- bury and Lewistown Railroad met at Selinsgrove on Tuesday. Arrange ments were made to prepare bonds for market; and Col. Simpson started to Philadelphia the next day to secure funds to complete the road. It is un- derstood that work on the road will be commenced in a few days.—Middle- burg Post. Something like the above appears about once a month in the acer: Selinsgrove or Middleburg newspapers; but what it amounts to, is hard to tell. Certain it is, the “days” pass away over and over again, and still the promised “work on the road” remains not yet “commenced!” The people along the line, as well as at both ends. want the road built. They are ready to do their part, if reasonable assur- ance of success can be given them. But this fulsomeness of promises, with- out results is doing more harm than good. Let us have less talk and more work, say we.— True Democrat. * » R. R.—Potter township has comple- ted its assessment for the railroad,— The tax laid upon each citizen, is 15 pér cent. upon the assessed valuation, from which the sum of 875,000 would be obtained. Some, however, may not agree to the asse.sment, heice that amount cannot be counted upon as certain ; but others have already sub scribed more than their assessment amounts to, We think that Potter township is good for at least from $40,000 to $50,000, as some $25,000 are already subscribed, and the town- ship not yet thoroughly canvassed. — lp Miss Susan B. Anthony in her Rev olution brings a new and singular charge against the radical Congress, and being a woman, she ought to know whereof she speaks. She charges that seventy women of ill fame were taken from New York to Washington to in- fluence the Pacific Railway subsidy bill. The Revolution fails to explain what influence this class of lobbyists would exercise. She proposes to rem- edy the evil in the future, by having a proper porportion of respectable wo- men sit in the House ao Saante. It might have the desived effect, but we doubt it. Ifthe wives and daughters of Senators and Representatives do not restrain them in this rticular, we hayn’t much faith in neighbor women, even if they come from the stern shades of the Revolution sanctum, —— A pe w— Newspaper Decisions.
