Who Kiiled the Ptimiraf This is a qnestion that is agitating the minds of peo ple in the vicinity of Montgomery's Ferry. It Appears that some time in July, 17G, a peddler stopped at a house in that vicinity, and rather mysteriously disapiared, learing his horse and wagon, and ha never return ed. The body of an unknown man was oiiie lime afterwards discovered at or below hiinfuii'i iHlnn.t. and now it is thought bv n.n..v tu.riiiu ihul thA unknown msn and fc , fe tilough there was a pretty fc . 1 fair chance to put a crime where it belongs, and clear up a mystery. As we have said before, we say again, that a good detective is sadly needed in the vicinity of Montgom ery's Perry. He. might not only break up tbe stealing, but find out who killed the pertdler t A fw nights since, Mr. Adaru Clouserj of this place, set some steel traps to catch an owl that was visiting his chicken coop. The next morning one of the traps was missing. A young man wh'.lc hunting a day or two afterward shot an owl, and was greatly as tonished as tbe bird fell from the tree, to bear the clanking of chains, as he supposed. It is-oved to be the owl which had flown away with the missing steel trap, fast to its legs. On Thursday a young man named iohn Mo6fe, residing in Uarriaburg, fell while trying to get on a moving freight train near Losh's Itun, and was run over by the entire train. He was not only cut in two, but had both arms cut ofl. The remaius were gath ered up and taken to his home, after an in quest bad been held. On Saturday last, Mr. William Askins, whilst Bshing for bass in Sherman's creek, below Dugan's dam, caught a strange-looking creature, of a brownish color, shaped something 'like the common water liiard. It was 22 inches in length, had a iroad, flat head, was as tenacious as a snapping turtle and as active as an eel.' To Mifflin County Fair, Last Thursday, The State is the ''mother, and the counties of Mifflin and Juniata are Bisters. Juniata, being the younger, was driven to use a good deal of per suasive argument, and a good djd of argument not persuasive, bo fore the elder sister gave consent that Mifilintown should become the county seat for the valleys that lay between Shade and Tuscarora uonn tains. The consent was ratiiiecl ly an act of Legislature establishing Juniata countv in 1831. What ever degree of estrangement or coolness that was caused by the movement of separation, has been forgotten, and the children have fully determined that the relationship of kinfolks shall be recognized and kept np; which was Abundantly evidenced last Thursday by one hundred Juni ata cousins going to Lewistown to attend the Mifflin county fair. The manner of going was by the speedy way of travel by rail. Many v ere the regrets that no smooth wagon and carriage roada unite the two counties. When the Juniata people debouch ed from the cars onto the streets of Lewistown, it was plainly evident to the slowest observer that something unusual was going on, for the streets im.i ! v 'x-ia f it ls au important advantage that j Lewistown has over Mifflin, that all ! Heed not enter town to get to lair ground. I Que hlindif 1 nomiV from Tnnlifi BnriMH H , 1 "P"uled the crowd on tho Streets ,I,ule puKuy, and even out ainon, the crowd of 3.01V) people at the fair Juniata was plainly visible. To get to our fair, one angles off iw Hlftll1AitllA onrtorYr liv liu rrku.l aJonrf the river toward the southwest; ta get to their fair, the road angles off circuitonsly by Kishicoquillas j erect, and an Episcopal graveyard to- warJ the southeast.

In one of his carriages going to the ground we met ex Sheriff Loudon and daughter, Miss Jane Loudon, an J U:ul inst eschansr:l COlKoliment- ary expressions with the Sheriff over the cor"fort:i!le drive in nrnsriwf- wlj(.n tM carriilJje Wils KiUalHl bv wiit-n the carriage au "K" iatiy oi aiKmt, zvrj pcuiuus : - I i. i i a nun i . ! "i-iguu, uu i-Mupemu iu a vuuiir lady of about the game size and weight The carriage stopped, and a flash of the mind told us that the compliments as to comfortable seats had been "wasted on the desert air." The next best thing to do va to re cognize the conrtesies due to the bet ter side of the human family, which we did by vacating a seat inside, and taking oue outside with John Heek, who was running the carriage. It seemed but a step or tro out to the ENTHAXCE j to tiis fair-ground, where Senator Waveain was enjoying himself selling j tickets to his constituents, and agri I cultural fiicnd.s. You pass the j GATE, I and are not so favorably impressed ! an wh-!' you enter the grounds of Riverside t'mk here. Instead of a grove of trees to pass through and a well of water to refresh by, a patch of stunted corn stalks on the right, and a hillock or track embankment on the left, greet the eye and im press one unfavorably, which can not bb got rid of till a stop is made and a look taken from a point near the Judges' stand. From that point on the ground, the enclosure presents its admirable qualities, which are many. Riverside Park shows well, viewed from any point Tho poor est impression received of it is from a point near where the stock are watered. leing near the southwest corner of the enclosure. The Lewis town Association must have taken the plan of Riverside Park to fashion their grounds after, for the plans are alike. TUE EXHIBITION- w is as good as the late one at Rivcr ti le Park; and of conrse Juniata was glad to congratulate her sister on so creditable a display. They eclipsed us in a display of carriages, which Showers fc Scholl might easily have prevented. They had a few more chickens, a couple of larger pumpkins, and that IP aliout all the material difference in the two exhibi tions as far as articles on exhibition go. The PEOPLE who were present outnumbered those in attendance at Riverside Park fair, and the percentage of Aymish peo ple was 1 irger, owing prolwibly to the fact that a larger population of that people live in Mifllin county. A round of tbe ground caused us to look for a seat in the shade, a seat on tho grand stand could have been hail, but that was too exclusive when the people were to be seen. An elli gible place was found on a cook stove at the extreme South end of Fine Arts LTall, where we sat and saw at least two thousand people file right and left through that end of the house. Farmers, preachers, doctors, lawyers and every other class of citizens filed by. Cliihlren of all sizes, and mothers with babes passed along, which suggested the thought that the fairs of Pennsylvania might have a baby department added, which wotdd be as attractive, as among tbe people of the west. There that is in the west almost every County fair has a baby department, into which all babies present on a stat ed day, are brought and examined by the committe on babies, and the rricftbT whose baby fills the require ments t'f the premium list receives a valuable reward or premium. The babies of Mifflin county that were present last Thursday were hand some, and many of the children that passed by our stove were real attrac tive in appearance, and that there are nsefnll as well as pretty little girls in Lewistown, is abundantly testified to, when the facts is stated that four or five of the quilts that decorated the south end of the building; of which we write were made by a class of six to eight year old girls, the of St Marks Sabbath school. Con sidering their age, the work amounts to almost ft marvel In this h6o.se, Mrs. Jermiah Lyon, and Miss Emca Eepner of Mifflin town, displayed their Ekill at sketch ing a peculiarly made, Scratch My Back, match safe. They promised a sketch for the special engraver of the Sentinel and ' Republican but for some uuknown cause did not send it in, and thus it happens that no pic tures of the articles, mentioned ap pear in tliis issue of the pa'por. A tine organ was on exhibition, and wait kept ia use almost constantly by Mifflin county cousins, but the singing, and the playing on the or gan that was pronounced best, while we occupied the stove, was that ren dered by Mrs. Jennie Kelly, wife of Lieutenant Jatnes Kelley of Tusca rora Valley, this county. Col. Wil liams of this place looked in a few times. Walters of the Lewistown Sentinel held an eligible post rn the inside ofliee cf the Secretary. While sitting and resting on tho stove, the impression bceauio strong that the great majority of the passers-by were not I"istown people, but peo plo from the valleys of Mifflin county. At one o'clock VICTOR E. PIOI.ETT, of Bradford county, begao an adirdsa The attractions ol rine Art I a II pre. vanioil mn at.nua rinnu nn attt l.art a 1 1- -' ine lime wueu tue ppecen was uei;uu ; bat as his speech was intended and indeed proved to be rne of tbe great attractions of the day, a portion at least of it must needs be beaid The making of the track caused a cttt in the ground between the judges' stand and gland stand. Piolett stood close to the judges' stand, on the side facing the grand staud. Never having seen his face in repose, we cannot say how it would impress us, but wheu speaking it is pleasing, lie is a man of aire. From his appearance one would not pronounce hiiu of French extraction as his name indicates. At j fiMt p'-"o "e wonld be pronounced by a reaurr oi men to ue oi lue quality oi men that Sbakspeare in hts Caesar ' 'peats of, thus "Let mt nave men about ine that are fat, sleek-hcadiil men, such as sleep o'nights." Hut not so with Piolett. To say that of him, is tbe mistake of first impres sion, aud a closer look at him reveals the fact, and a short lime at listening to bis speech, impresses one with the belief, that be belongs to the class that "Look finite through the deeds of men." He was then talking about Cov. Tbe enw of his chaise is uot tbe Gur uey, or tbe Alderney. He does not j.ot)ject t0 thcx for their inilkiu, quali ties, for they are good enough, but when they are woreo out as milkers they are not fit for beef ; there is to little of them. Ivy their smallnrss thousands cf dollars are annaaly lost, for by a larger breed the quantity if beef wueld be largely increased. They sboold be crossed with some larger stock so as to get beef and milk United. llOP-SEft. He was glad to See a Pcrcberon borse ou the ground. Such horses are a hat ia'rmtrs need ; they need horses that cau draw a load oa a wagen and draw a plou;li through limestone soil. He recommended the raising of large and active horses. They are of more use than 2.40 horsc-s. He wonld rec ommend a carriage hcrse or two but stout horses are the kind. A couple of such will do more and eat less than a largor number of the other kisd end thus help lessen the cost of PRoncrm. To the farmers, the cost of produc tion is a great thing, and it is greatly overlooked by the farmer. How many can tell of the cost of a dozen eggs, oi a pound of butter. The limestone val leys are the most productive. Tbe Germans who are tbe best farmers in the world, know of their productiveness, bonce, the German farmer is seldom fouud outside of limestone valleys, but iu tho best producing districts ftio es pouses are entirely to great. Farmers are Lhe poorest paid people in the coun try. They are the heaviest taxed peo ple in the coutry, with the least repre sentation in conventions and' in Legis lative assemblies that make la3 fot there government. In townships tbey keep up roads, schools, and the poor, aud also pay County and State taxes while other interests arc lightly taied. by is it so ? Why is it that the great over shadowing industry of the country must bear tbe burden of expenses of tho country ? The farmers number cue balf tbe people, and yet tbey seem to bo controled by men of other business They allow Lawyers and Bankers to make the laws aud take the benefits. The Constitution of Pennsylvania, that was receutly alopted, is almost entirely in the interest of other pceple than farmers. The contention that frauiad it contained anly thrte farmers so small a number that they were voiceless as far as result could go. The farmers need OKGAsizATtON. Urgaaize. Do not be scared at the cry of secret organization ; there is nothing in it. When bauk directors and offi cials meet in some back room there is a secret meeting, and it never is for tbe promotion of the farmers' interest. When lawyers oongregate there is a Btcret meeting ; you cannot End out what they are at. Are farmers to be scared by the talk of secret meetings. Tbe farmers never meet to consult about their business: with one another, and yet they are tbe fathers of the good morals, braint and money of tbe country. It is because of bis isolated condition, or living apart from neigh bors, that he is so powerless. He the greatest power in tbe land is tbe least powerful. Lock at the organizations of every interest in tbo country, and their published roles aud regulations for the government of business. If the secret organization is a thorn in the flesh, organize and bold a meeting once nlonth in every townihip once a week tfoulu be better without any aecresy about it ; let there be fiohie kind of organization. Coming together once a week, or once a month, will make your children more contented, and by and by they will feel their power. It is the association of othef interests that causes tbe Sous of so many farmers to leave tbe farms. It is too bad that the lands of tbe pioneers have almost entirely passed into tbe bands of other men, and that tbe sons of tbe original owners bave become tbe tenants, but such is tbe fact in a majority of cases. Where ate tbe grand children of tbe tneo who first peopled this State? To whom do the farms that their grand father! carved out belong ? We beard Mr.. I'iolett no farther, fak'viog been catted away.
