Last week we copied a short article
from the -'Hatavia Times," headed ''Sing

that place had a hoif.r which bad been

having a calf. Since then, we have beeu j
informed by Jude Woodward, of this
borough, that he ownes a heifer now two !
years old, that has been giving milk for ,
the last e:ght nn nths, and has never had '
a calf, lie also iuformed us that Mr. C. j

period. Notwithstanding this multiplicity j
of cases, these facts are unaccountable to ,

; the Commissioners of Union county, (Mr.
, ilerrold being absent) subscribed two
; lluudred Thousand Dollars to the stock
'. of the .Susquehanna Itail Hoad, from
! IJiidgeport (opposite Ilarrisburg) to Sun-
bury and Williamsport. The Comniissio-
ners are entitled to great credit for this
evidence of their independence and en-1
1 lightened public spirit ; and when the
m if.er comes to be properly understood,
their action in this matter will no doubt
meet the cordial apprjbation of all the
tax pavers in the county. The Borough
j authorities of Lewisburg, also subscribe
! Fifty Tbr.usand I .liars ; and the individual
' subscriptions among our citizens reach
; th fniihcr sum f near Ten Thousand
U ,il.,i's, which will doubtless be materially
i .in leased in the next few weeks. Our
I ueoplc are resolved to put their shoulder

We arc of the
people in the
country, and the neighboring towns, come
no promptly aud manfully to the work,

Here onr notice would close, with our
t . Vl..- f.lr Institution its Teachers
Ue" WlSneS IOnue institution, IIS Aeaeueis
and Students but there are in the Cata
logue, matters which demand attention.
Tha title page read :
" Lewisburg, Union Co. Pa.
I'rinted for the University."
That statement, as it stands, aud as it is
calculated to be understood, is not true. It
was not "printed" in "Lewisburg."' It
is well printed, and whoever executed it is
entitled to the credit. As a Lewisburg
printer we will not allow another office to
be despoiled of the fame while we are
kept from the jirojils. It b neither true,
nor just, to either.
Vc deem it uufair to the publie, also,
to present to them the jn of a Building
1 , , e , , .1 ,
I .. . , .
the remainder not even under contract
as the "University at Lewisburg.'' A
picture of the editc-', with a statement
that it is the plan adopted, or that there
ti to be a building of the size aud form
twice exhibited in this Catalogue, would
not only be pleasing, but proper ; but
to be presented iu a manner that speaks
of it as a veritable briek-aud-morter, acd
not a paper euihce, is neither judicious
j nor honest. The same objection applies
j to the picture of the Female Seminary on
j the last page of the cover, -f whica there
is not even a Plan known to us.
There are also gross errors in Mines,
j and despoiling of (.lie Teacher and one
! Uiueer 01 their well earned titles, wuien
. we hope may be charitably accounted for
! by the distance between the University
aud the Printer.
This paper Las too long shown its
frieud.-hip for the Institution, to require
us to disavow hostility to it. It is because
we ardently desire its sound and real
prosperity, that we deprecate such elap-
j trap expedients to give it an appearance
I which it has not. An Institution with
tuch a good basis as this, can not in the
long run benefit itself by attempting to
speculate on "borrowed capital."

AVeatiiek i Olkkn Tuies. The
Poston Journal having referred to the fact
that on the d.iy the battle of Lexington
was fought April 10, 177.") the beat
was so oj prcssive that the Riitiah troops
aulTeryd ou their retreat, and the sea-on
was so advanced, that the cherry trees were
in blossom, says it must not be inferred
from that fact that the seasons have ma
terially changed since thr Revolution, and
calls attention to the following extract
from the Hampshire Gazette, relating au
event which took place just on year pre
vious to the battle : '-Cm. Times. We
are informed by a venerable friend that

We observe that the process cf thinning
the foliage on the North West side of the

town people and travelers on the fast side

giate purposes. This is a very desirable,
and we think advisable object. As it is,
the published view of the Hill is not faith
ful to life. It gives some objects which
do not exist ; those which, do exist arc not
as prominent as represented ; tho propor
tion is erroneous, especially as regards the
River, which is much wider than would
appear from the view, and those big hem
locks arc meant for reasonable pines.J
