XNow is the time or near at hand

Man Ikownei. A man named Levi
lSurnctt, aged about 35 years was drowned
tit Lock Haven on tbe 1st iust, whilst cn
pged in getting up logs to the new Saw
Mill at that place, and although a great
many men were at tbe place, lie sank to
the bottom and was drowned before assis
tance could be rendered. Tbe water was
about 12 feet deep.
"The great metropolis of old Union,"
tg.A communication in tbe ChrmHr.
of the 13th ult., signed 'Snyder County
referring to tLe Division question, asks :
I want you, each and all Jurymen, Wit
nesses, and what-not the 9 out of 10 of you
who climb the mountains to get to the next
i'ounty Court, to ask yourselves, Shall we
endure this unnecessary toil another forty
years ? and our children after us? While 'J
out of every 10 tax pavers live on lands drained
j the Buffalo or by Middlecreck, shall we be
always dragged from them over the mountains
to New Berlin ? Shall we be forced away from
the natural course of travel and trade, to keep
u that little hill-environed town ! Or, are we .
not now wealthy and numerous enough lu have
two counties, and a County Scat somewhere in
the Valleys where nineteen-twentieths of us do
all our other business ! The greatest good of
the greatest number" ttemanih a change."
It will be seen that nothing is said by
'!nyder County about 'Lcwkburg.' Yet
tbe At'ic ll rlin Titmt asserts that
"The Chronicle is fearful that LcwtsarRn

travel and trade, and be obliged to come to

has designed New Berlin for the threat metropo

however, in the remark of the Chronicle, that
instead of Lewisburg being fjreed amoy ftom
the natural course of travel, &c.,the Chronicle
and its masters have forced the trade 4c. from
Lewisburg."

Compared with the "metropolis," what
iusignificant little towns are Seiinsgrove,
lewisburg, Frccburg, Middlcburg, Ilar
tlcton, Mifflinburg!
We can assure the Timet, that Lewis
burg never had more trading business than
now and that there is more building
going on than for several years past In
other towns in the Northern part of the
county, we are happy to see the same
prosperity manifest.
From this specimen, the friends of
Pivision will sec at a glance how much
fair or honest treatment they arc to ex

ASSEMBLY. The Central portion of
Union county had the Assembly for two
years, '43 and '49 the Northern portion '
for two years, '50 and '51 and Juniata
for two years, '52 and '53. Last year Ju-1
niata by a large majority voted against
having a Member from that County. If
that is her opinion still, the next Member
clearly belongs to the South part of Union
county certainly not to the North or to
the Center. Snyder or Juniata ?
