The Church here has recently been I
greatly benefitted by the regular Quarterly
Meeting of the Disciples of Bradford and
Tioga counties. _ The following named
preachers were present: Wm. D. Lane,
Vienna, N. J.; J. IL Gordinier, Suspension
Bridge, N. Y.; A. D. Finbh, John Daisley, G.
W. Headley, from Dogs, Co., and John
Phoenix of Alba, Bradford Co.
These gentlemen aided us much by their
prayers;ehxortations and excellent preabhing.
The weather was fine and the roads pretty
good, so our audiences were large. Very
good religions interest is awakened so that
the meeting will be protracted. Mr. John
Dailey will preach a few evenings after which;
Mr. John Phoenix will farther aid us. It' l ib'
greatly desired, and anxiously hoped that
great good may be done in the conversion,o
1 souls to our Lord Jesus Christ.
One circumstance occurred during the
gharterly which greatly saddened us all. The
fuheral services of Mr. Albert Lilley's dahgh
ter Lucetti, were solemnised in the Church
at about 2 D. m., on Saturday. The wise man
has said: "It is better to go to the house of
mourning than to the house of feasting," so
is was all right, that we should mourn with
the afflicted family and, comfort them An , all
'means in lour power in their sad bereave..
ment. Little Lncetta was nearly 8 yeati of age,
chid been very sick with Diphtheria, but in
her convalescence was attacked more severely
and fell a prey to the dread enemy. ,
She looked wonderfully beautiful in thought
iu her snowy attire and seemed more aslaep
than dead—in her am row house. But she
it safeand we mourn not as those; who have
no hope. The afflicted parents nave much
to console them and can pay "He doet* all
things well."
Our citigens are suffering greatly with
colds and coughs and the like.

Bradford and Sullivan counties in Conven

tion in the efforts to secure the adoption of a
constitutional amendment to prohibit forever
from the Commonwealth the manufacture
and gala of intoxicating drinks. That we
will aid in the proposed organization of as.'
sociations in every voting district for the
purpose of securing the eractment- submit
ting this amendment to a vote, and when
submitted, giving it the largest! possible ma
jority and subsequently the adoption of
necessary statuary supporting laws. _ . .
Second, To this end, we will see that sound
true temperance -men only• get into each
branch of our Legislature and' that total ab
stainers be secured to fill every office"; of pro-.
fit and trust.. We propose to enter heart and
soul, into this life campaign, calling, to our
aid careful and vigorous organization, , every
available political,right and high above . all
the approval and favor of Almighty God in
whom we trust for fihal victory.

of the vicini.y for heir g nerons hospitality
and encouragement.
• The next meeting is to he held at Sheshe
quin. This is the ;annual session at which.
officers are elected and as the time falls upon
May 30, Decoration day, a resolution was
adopted, leaving it; with the Executive Com
mittee to call the meeting at such other time
as may be thought hest.
The discussions; at this convention were
earliest and the sentiment qu ite 1111.111iM0118
in favor of Canatitiitional -prohibition. The
right.of the pcoplejiO rule and to alter their
Constitution is secured to them in the Con
stitutqin itself.. Government was "instituted
for their peace, saieti , and happiness." The
traffic in intoxicating beverages, is, in every
practical effect destructive of such "peace
safety and happiness." It is productive •of
crime, immorality, misery and taxation. For
government to , grant privileges destructive
of every purpose , of its existence is a p rosti
tution of its authority, and betrayal of its
trusts. This question is ono of paramount
interest to every citizen and tax 'payer. PI)
every Christian and philanthropist. Tho
rights of the masses of the people of the in
nocent victims of. rum's crimes, should be
quite as sacred as the right of the drink n.' to
his grog' which ho ilihnself knows ho would
be better off withoilt. Government should
protect the innocent, and if any rights are
sacritized let it be those of the guilty. The
example of Kansas is a good one worthy of
our imitation,C.

The friends of this eminent , citizen and dis
tinguished jurist in this 'vicinity were-sur
phaed and pained to bear of his death which
•oh place d at Willi amsport on the 6th init.
after, illness of several days duration.
Judge Bentley who was personally well known
in this neighborhood and highly esteemed by
all who khewititn, hid won a reputation as
an able lawyer, an upright judge ands dis
tiognished public man which extended
throughout the Commonwealth. His amiable
manners, simplicity, uprightness and high-
Floral character stampettlihn as among Shit
school of gentlemen of an Mei day whole
peculiar type is Jamey tebe recognized .
among their successors. Ile wrs obedient to
all the demands of a pun: and tvell-Ortierid
social life—faithful to his family', honorable
in his dealings, correct- in his eportment,
orderly in habit and temperate in '`riving.
His iympathies always tended t wards the
simpler forms of life which were the pith
and marrow of his own day and eneration.
Wearing an unmated temper, he was uni
-formly courteous in his manners, and censid.
mate in his treatment of others. With strong
paternal instincts and a believer 'id the .
sanctity Of family ties, he sought to secure to
those to whom be WAS related through them,
ways of life that lead to prosperous results.
He was as faithfril to his friends as he was
undemonstrative but true to the' closer ties
of family and kindred. ,
The quality of Judgelßentley's
_mind and
his characteristics as a'lawyer partook largely
of the moral impulses of his social being: he
had a marked, direct -and unflorid 'force of
treatment, an undisguised simplicity that
went directly I to the point he aimed at with
out the show of rhetoric or attempt
at ingenious phrasing which sometimes mar
the best efforts of the jurist and the adincsite
and cloud and distort his methods and his
Meaning. Judge Bentley's , judicial career '
and personal hisbiry is succinclly set forth in
the subjoined paragraph from the Philadel
phia Times of the 7th inst. Ho - leaves many
friends, of comparatively recent acquaint..
ante, in this county who will sincerely regret
his loss. In out neighboring county of Sus
quehanna where his career began, his large
circle of friends will revive a long'recollection
of his steadiness in the pursuit of professional
Access, and the worthy ways, with .which he
honored it. The scene of the later years of his
professional labors in Lycoming, marked by
the preferment which was their duo, was oc
cupied braspeiations which, in common
with those at all other times aud places where
ho was knowri in life, will recoknizo his kind
ness,lis catidor, his tilents and his virtues
how that heis dead. ~
He was hoporod with the confldencoof his
countrymen: in an unsolicited selection for
the candidacy of highest offices in tho St ate.
It is safe to - Hay that this selection was (hie
not less to the political sentiment he, pro
fessed than Co a general con fi dence id his
uprightness. sincerity of purpose and the
unblemished'reputation that ho bore.
Judge Bentley was born in 1809 and was for
many yeirs the leading member of the Montrose
use, where he resided until some flfteen years
ago, when hewas appointed ?resident Judge of
the district by Gotta:seri:leery. Re ras the Re.
publican candidate for the Judgeship in 1888.
and wan defeated only by a small majority by
Judge damble,nntwithstanding the large Dem
ocratic majority ist the county. "Judge Bentley
retired from the bench to resume the practice of
Adis professinn in Williamspori, where , he main
'twined
. a , high position at the bar, and was
•
called to many of the neighboring counties to
try important cues. On the organizing of the
new county of Lackawanna, Governor Hartrauft
decided that the constitution made Lackawa4a
a separate Judicial'district and commissioned
Judge Bentley as Judge. He served for a brio
period with general acceptability until_ the, ti
preme Court reversed the decisizn o f f the GOV
ernor, and thus terminated Judge Bentley's
commission. He airain resumed the ; t ractice of
his profession at Williamsport, and cc Untied it
until declining health compelled him to abandon
it. He was nominated for President Judge in
1880 by a non-partisan movement in! Bradford
county, but he took no part in the contest thus
voluntarily thrust upon him, and Judge Morrow,
was re-elected over him. Judge Bentley has left
beland him a most blampleiti record of more
than three4core years aid; ten u a citizen,and a
public record that was ever the'higkese tribute
to integrity;-ind he will be sincerely lamented
not only by the household in which he exeinplb
fled all the' grateful offices of &greaten, but by
the rainy in all sections of the Stith who knew
and appreciated his worth as a man.—/iilmki

USE YOUR . EYES.
An abstract of a lecture delivered before
the students of the Susquehanna Collegiate
. Institute by II ev. David Craft. •
I suppose I am now mainly talking tOthose
who are engaged in the study'of matheiriatics %
science, history. language, Ind thought, and
have seen to what greatness man has been
raised by the power of thought.. In school
the important, thing is not, tau commit the
rule and memorize the principles, bat it is
to explain the rule and clearly understand
and be ready to apply the principles.
A great office of the teacher is to • show 'the
,boy how to think 'for himself. Each study
should be a means-for more advantement.:.
The object of school should be to 'prepare
student to use his eyes. A bertaiii class of:
persons complain of this world as ti prison-1
house or a dhll place. This because they.
do not use their eyes. ,This world was• not
Made by our Creator as a . prison house but as
'Place for learning many useful lessons..
He whO goes througli'it without perceiVingl
some of its besutrand receiving some of its
truths and inspirations, makes a sad .rnistake.
To • see the beautiful no one need travel
abroad to view the grandeur of the Alps. He
who uses his eyes can see beauty all around
him in the grass that ha trismples= under his
feet or in the stone by the .wayside.'
The simplest plant furnishes - food for much .
.thought.'
Fifty years ago a' Scotch stone cutter saw
in some nicks what appeared to be the re
mainsof plants and: animals. He used hie . _
eyes and is not less than the renowned Hugh
Miller.
A good of'tbe mind is a glorious
achievement. It enables a man to take ad
vantage of circumstance. Yet man most use
his eyes to see what these circumstances are
or it is of no value.
