Letter From Waterloo.
Editor Sextisel asp Rkpoclica.
Dear Sir : As I have been a subscriber
to the Sestisel since 1848, 1 think a letter
from me may not be out of order. I became
a citizen to Juniata county, February 9, 18
47. I have lived in this village ever since
excepting six months, and have witnessed
wonderful changes. From Concora to nasi
Waterford, a distance of ten miles, only
two men are living and occupy the farms
hv did in 1847. they are, Mr. John Leonard
and Mr. Samuel Ramsey, all the rest have
A-.t .nL Colonel Georza Noss, who
UIV 1
now lives in Virginia.
When I first came, and for a period of six
vears after, we went to the Lick to vote
was the only Whig, and lor some years the
only Republican from this village, bat soon
I got reinforcemeuts aud for a number
- it hu been nio and tug. Our Demo
cratic friends have a little majority now.
The prospect for the hunting campaign
is very good, and if a little gumption and
common sense had been exercised in fram
Ins- our a-ania law. the descendeuts
Ninirod might enjoy themselves to perfec
tiou. Just look for a moment at the gn
law as now in force. Squirrel shooting
September 1st : Deer, October 1st j Turkeys,
October 15th s Rabbits, November lsU The
squirrel banter starts forth on tho 1st
i
September, perhaps, without any intention
of breaking the law, but a Bock of turkeys
are seen, and may be the hair grown tur
keys are left worthies, before the first day
for squirrel hunting expires, and when the
15th day of October comes around the law
abiding citizen findg them so frightened and
scattered, that, although the hunting is as
good as ever, the catching of the game is a
complete failure.
Now, just see how simple any law can be
mado to appear, if a little judicious com
mon sense is brought to bear upon it. Let
the game law. be altored at the session of
the Legislature, so that it shall be lawful to
shoot all kinds of game from the 1st day of
October till the first day of January, then no
one can have an excuse for carrying a gun
the woods before that time, and if we see
it that men of good sense are sent to
Harrisbnrg, we will have laws enacted for
ns that we need not be ashamed of.
