COMMUNICATION. Mi.MCO, March 1. 179. Edi'jr S&iiinel aud Republican Dear Sir, Tc nave beaid how grraliy you people in lie Capital town ol the county are pleated ivr the coarse of lectures that the enter prise ut a couple of your young men in duced to gel up. We all hope the pa Iron -p-i that was extendi at ti-e Villers and Kellogj lectures was suiricient to pay IIiums watidson.el;,- who were instrumental in get ting it up. We lire led to an expression of this hope by the manifestation of the keenest tinaucial ability of the musical tai eut of this place as combined in Ute band that played for the school exhibition that was beM iu tiii town last Friday evening, while your people at the same time were enjoyirg the rtaJing of pieces by Miss Ke! logg. The financial talent, of our musical talent here is first-rate, and by and by, per- i . baps, tboy'l! ali be millionaires. The man agement tf the exhibition was vested in the scholars, and the mere pittance of five cents adtnusion fee was taken at the door for the purpose cT paying expenses for such lii tie nutters as are necessary for such an occasion; but, lo, art! behold presto change before the management got the funds appropriated, the band got their hand in at the rate of cents a ttm-. The ru lertaiirrjtit was a success, and if the dia iau .s and declamations were not delivered :r. as an artistic maimer, as the pitces deliver- 1 in your place on the same evening by Miss Kellog, we were just as happy, and happiness you know, is the thing that e". -ij uod j I. rig TOr. This occasion left us down l'ri.iu tlia mat-r ol the late local elec tron. We arc told thftt in your town you have not yet got done with it. We are t-jld hat yon irj to have a contest as to who uall be Justice of the Peace, as the ques tion is U:t undecided by a tie vote. All Vin-ls ot Ie;orts L lie got if oat about it. The story is that the vote of Sheriff Walls is to be challenged on tbe ground that his place of r.-si jeuce is not ill .V.tJiin town. Then, es 1 Counter riovenient, it is sai-1 that th-3 vote of David Ilaller, who is one cT ihe conlcstitig candidates, will be chulltiig. d and rejected because he hid ritht to vote, on account ot not havi:.g pai 1 tax in two years, an-l that I ist yesr -Lc lax collector in tt.e boroiiarh got ihs 'onim;SMocers to exonerate him ol toe insitiificar-t sum thit a levied against him. Would it not save the wasiiin ol dirty linen" to decide the q-iestion by a! rew eU-ction instead of bv a contest of elec tion. it" the Legislators c uld hear the people tn these parts U:k abaut the bit! that pro poses t s'eal $.4,000,000 ol the earning ol the State to jay for the cusseiiness lb it was hatchet! out by the Biht between the bosses of tbe corporations and tbe common men of the corporations, t-at are bossed, the $4,i0"V"J L:!i would uver i-g.ua be beard of. Xiue in every ten of the members who vote for that bill will never be sent oict to narrisburg or any other place to hold office. Then there is the proposal to abandon the Juniata c a.il. We are salty on fiat. We'd like to know whether the c.-.nal. th it the Stale sold in good faiih, has b?en paid for. We would like our cueudier to oQ'et a resolution of inquiry in the Legislature on that point. Lei ban raise the inquiry as to how much of the money that was due the Stale on 4 be sale of tbe canals has been paid. uch an inquiry is not a lecil . lesticu that affects the Juniata val-!-" alone, but it is as comprehensive ai the Commonwealth, and at this time, Then the expense of Ihe Stal-j exceed tha income. it is a crave question to know whether the P"oie, who aie still paying the debt that as incurred i" buildirg ile canals, are get ting what n as agreed ou when they sold the it:b!ic -:iis. 1 bore is a report that the Newport folks have the promise that the canui liom the Millerstown dain shall not bs Uitnrbed, and that is why they are so quiet about it. If they are green enough t be lieve that the whole of the upper Juniata regio-j r r-y be abandoned and this little s'r':tch of canal from the Millerstown dam to the Susqut hanoa nver kepi np for their especi il benefit, tbey we of the greenest green, and easily stuffed. We have quite a lot of candidates already lookii.g out lor the oir.ee of Sheriff, which is to be re-fiUcd by the election next fall. 1 cou'd mention a number of Democrats in this township that are laying their plans to get the noiiiiaaiion. Some of them think tt-ey h-ive promises that will put theui on the track lor the Kovember election. It tbe Democracy Kumiaattd by a fair 5qu.-.re vote of their party, as we liepublicans do, a premise from their leaders would not go lar to secure a Domination. The Democ racy can never again be hirmonioua until they have the lair way of uouiiuating can didates, which is to let every man who wishes to be a candidate, be a caudidate beloru il-i jeople of his party at the pri mary e-lecliou, and the man who gels tbe bight st number of votes is to be the candi date for tbe November election. There is l.tile room lor gouging or cheating in such a system, and il the voters watch the men they elect judge and cleiks, or elect nun w ho are above the meanness of cheating, they can have the. lairest possible expres sion. I hear a good man tpoken of i:i this township for the oflice of Sheriff, also one in Port Royal, also one in Millord township, among Republicans, but I cannot Touch for the truth of the report. Cut my letter is already too long. I'll write you soon again. Yours, respectfully, WALKER.

Kditor Sentinel and Republican Sir. We deem it necessary to write a short letter, and give you some of the news of our little town, namely, Richfield. Our torn is small, but the people are enterprising, and a great interest is manifested in the ca-ise of edu cation. We have a graded school, consist ing of two school., a primary and an ad vanced school. There are enrolled 88 pu pils in both schools. They arc in a pros perous condition, under tbe instruction of M. K. Kiuzer and I. L. Zimmerman. A great interest is taken by both teachers and pupils. Our Literary Society is still in progress, aud has been a success so far this witter. The citizens all, both old and young, take an active part in it. We have a journal connected with the society, which makes it both instructive and amusing. Our people, lor a week or more were at a loss to know what to bitch their horses to, whether to a vehicle on runners, or one on wheels, but the snow, that Tell recently, set things to rights aain. Times appear to be dull, nevertheless our merchants are doing a good business. Tbe election passed off very quietly. One of our worthy citizens, G . S. Metterlipg, has been re-el octcd as school director. We think he is the right maa iu the right p'ce, for he takes a gteat interest in school affairs. Our lawyer seems to be very busy, lie is a great smoker, and draws vigorously at a huge old smoke-pipe, which ot course helps his good looks very much. Not long since he was somewhat sold. Some Utile rogue put powder in his pipe, and when il exploded it almost scared him to death ; but we think he is all right again. Our peoplo filled the ice houses last week. There was a taffy walk, a few evenings ago, at Peter Gray bill's. All who attended were well j. leased. This has been a cold winter, nevertheless our people could sit by the stove and eijoy their cider and apples, lor we Lave plenty of that among us. Tbe people of this place ami vicinity have tbe Kansas I'eVer, and bave only oue remedy to cure it, and that is to make a start and go. Several bave made the start.

They waited twd tours aud then dispatched a brother of tbe bride to Cud the bridegroom ; aod meanwhile, 1-i-t the victuals should spoil, t hoy sat down to dinner.
