sixtv-six pounds to the bushel. Mr. Deck
ax calls it uVe coffee wheat. He sowed
sixteen acres this fall ail from a single

a bucket of water near by was dashed
upon the fire. A backet or two of
water near a threshing machine is at all

Further accounts of the ejects of the
great storm of Thursday last sho that
they were more disastrous than any
which has ocenred for many years. Tbj
number of shipping and railroad disas
ters reported are, taken together, un
precedented. The principal disasters
were the railroad accident on tho Pick
ering Valley (Pa ) railroad, by which
sixty persons were killed and wounded,
most of them belonging to the Pan a ba
ker family reunion exclision ; the havoc
among the vessels at Lewes, Del. and
the wreck of the Long Island Sound
steamer Massachusetts, from which for
tunately two hundred paesengers were
safely rescued. Numerous other acci
dents, involving life and property are
reported."
Diking the past two weeks Sheriff
Jennings and bis deputies have been
engaged in cleaning out the fish dams
in the Susquebanua river, between the
MahautRgo creek, six miles above Mil
fersbwrg, and the Conowago creek, five
nii3 below MidJletown. Some seven-ty-tfire
fish dams were destroyed by
these gentlemen, and it now hoped that
tbe law will be respected. The Sheriff
is determined to put a stop to tbe prac
tice rjf building fish dams, and will de
molish tbem waerever discovered with
in his juried ietion.
In soma of the dams a cumber of
small shad, not over three inches in
size, were discovered caught in the bars
of the fish traps aud killed.
Parties who are interested in fuh cul
ture intend to watch the constables'
returns lo the next court to see if any
mention is made of any violations of the
fih law. Tbey argue that constables
cannot help but know the fact that fish
dams are erected in their districts bor
dering on tbe Susquehanna, and the
constables must return the violators.
Tbe constables have the right to bring
suit as officers of the law, and it is their
duty to do so. Let a stern band crash
tbe violators, and it will have the effect
of preventing further rascality in this
respect. Harrisburir Telegraph.

To Port Eojal Fair.
PerrjBTiUe used to be the name of
he pleasant town three miles south
of Mifflin town. At the time it was
named, people delighted to call their
boy babies O. H. Perry, or Perry, so
and so, just an the family name might
follow, for the name awakened re
collections of victory over the naval
forces of the Royal house of Great
Britain on L-ike Erie. The name
tells one of the annihilation of a
British war flet on the lake just
. a 1 ma . . -
uieiiuonea. me name ol tbe lover
of the Republic who called the town
Perrysville, or caused it to be so
named, is unknown to us, but the
choice of a name for the village tells
how he stood on the question at isbue
in the war of 1812.
Yhe town is no longer called Per
rysville; it is now known bv the
name of Port Royal Of course the
good people there are not to be taken
to account for changing it from a
purely Democratic Or Republican
name to one as purely aristocratic,
but when they dropped or abandoned
Perrysville for Port RoyaL it was a
step from a Republican name to that
of eristocracy. There is nothing
Democratic or Republican about a
name that has Royal to it, and yet,
there are both Democrats and Re
publicans in Port RoyaL but not one
Royalist
The contradiction as found be
tween the people and their names is
no more singular than the formation
of the ridge and plain, at the point
of which he town is located, and
on which Juniata Agricultural
is annually carried on.
LICK1SO CHEEK,
as it comes out of Black Log
Fair
and
Shade mountains, should have
con-
tinned straight on b the farms of
Robinson, Doty atid Heikes to the
river. However, in the workings of
Xatdrt with the creek, no such course
was prescribed, and, instead of
emptying in the river where stated,
the ctvck, at the distance of about a
mile or a mile and a hidf from the
river, turns, and runs southward on
a parallel line with the Juniata, for a
distaBce of four miles, where it unites
with Tuscarora creek at McCulloch's
Mills, and thence as a united stream
the two creeks bear off eastward till
they enter the waters of the river
clse by the south 6ide of Port RoyaL
When streams in their rippling
course, meander so singularly, there
can be no marvel in the change of the
name of a town from the republican
name of Perrysville to the aristo
cratic name of Port RoyaL
THE TOWS SITE
made by the action of the stream,
and other forces of nature, is a splen
did one, and in after years Port Royal
may become a large town. What
time has in store for her no man can
tell ; futurity covers it alL
the rant OROrSD
is located at the town, on the south
side, between the creek and the vil
lage, on the same pttin that rises so
extensively, and at such an easy grade
from the river and creeks, that it re
quires an experienced eye to see that
the plain that rises into an elevated
ridge northwest of the town, was
made by the same action that brought
Licking creek in a round about-way
to the river. The Society own the
ground, and have it paid for. It con
tains about four acres, and is the re
sult of two purchases. The original
cost of the ground was about five
hundred dollars. Traces of the
track are yet to be seen in the piece
of the first purchase. Many of the
older citizens are warmly attached to
the Society ; it was their first fair
love, and they love it still with all the
ardor of youthful love, and no supe
rior attractions, such as are present
ed by the natural beanty of locality,
and surroundings of Riverside Park,
have lessened their attention, devo
tion, and love.
THE PEOPLE
who manage Port Royal fairs are not
of the class of blind devotees spoken
of in the Good Book, and there men
tioned as being so obtuse as to de
clare that no good can come out of
Nazareth. They are clever, thrifty,
and rank among the best people in
the county.
Manybelieved that tbe great rain
that prevailed on Thursday bad washed
out all desire on tbe part of the people
to attend, but when Friday morning
came, bright and bracing, tbe old lore
kindled up anew, and turned out a
crowd of 1500 to 2000 people.
It was dinner time for tbe multitude
high noon when we entered the en
closure on Friday, and tbe people with
victuals and fruit for sale weie lustily
announcing the countentsof (heir coun
ters and larders, while on the green
that extends from the gate to the track
many family groups were quietly taking
dinner; others sat in carriages and par
took of lunch.
The cr jwd seemed to be more at ease
than is usually the case at fairs. There
was less listless wandering, less of a
general surge, as if every one stood on
the "tip-toe of great expectation." A
number of Mifflin people were present,
and occasionally one would make the
round of
tbe track,
which Is a quarter of a mile in circuit.
Washington North aud George Hender
son, Dr. Lucian Banks and Mr. Mayer,
met on the track and immediately en
gaged in an impromptu race. Around,
and around they went, urging their
horses, tinder whip and exclamation, as
much as if a thousand dollars bad been
staked on the issue ; but somehow or
other when it was over it was a drawn
race. Perhaps the half dozen horse
men who leisurely Walked their horses
around the track, bad something to do
with the absence of result to eitbeir
side.
About 2 o'clock in the afternoon a
number of hoys took the course for a
foot-race, one round. They were drawn
in line across the track, aud thtir names
announced by H. U.Snyder, the official
Herald at the Judges' stand. Tbe
names of tbe boys are t Charles Landis,
E. S. Tysjn, G. Landis, C. M. Wright,
G. Stewart, W. F. Balsbach, J. A.
Masser, C. Koontt, Samuel Wright, .
Dyoinirer, John Fnnk, C. Hamlin.
Isaac Bergy, Jacob Willi, Loudon Todd,
David B. Clark. At the word "Go."
tbe boys went off ltvely. London Todd,
of Patterson, by 4 misstep got a slow
start, and bad do more than gathered
his loss when a boy in frost of him fell.
Loudon came down over the top of bis
prostrate competitor, and hurt the palm
of a hand quite severely, bat nothing
daunted ho sprang up, gave cHase,
passed the rear boys, and all others,
exempting the first ooe, and came in to
the "scratch" second Charles Landis,
or Port Royal, being first. Charles
received $1.00 as urstprixe, and Lou
dun 00 cents as aeeond prize.
THE EXHIBITION
in Floral Hall has been better. The
display of Vtge tables baa not been
equaled in any fair held in the county.
The amount of grain was large, com
paratively speaking, and tbe quality
was of tbe most satisfactory kind.
Horses and cattle were there in large
number, and bogs and sheep of im
proved stock. A sulky plow and other
improved cultivators always kept a
crowd assembled about the agricultural
implements. Tbe poultry looked a little
droopy. Perhaps it was in consequence
of the approach of Thanksgiving lice.
