of Mr.. Lincoln's noblest qualities. The

the. features of President Lincoln as they

Notwithstanding the low faro but about
eighty persons bought tickets for the Naiad
excursion to Owego, on Wednesday of last
week; but those who did go' had a very de
lightful trip, and a day of enjoyment, The
train left this place at about 7 o'clock; a.m.,
'and arrived at Owego at about 9:30. The
Naiads were met at the depot by Eagle
. •
Hose Company No. 4,—whose guests they
were4-and Awaga . band, and escorted to
Main street in front of No. 4's rOonis,where
Capt. E. -B. Gere, in a neat speech welcom
ed, the Naiads to the hosp - of Owego
in general and Eagle Hose in Particular.
H. Allen, of the Naiads, , responded in
behalf of that Company. After the speech
making the Companies repaired to Eagle's
rooms where Hon. C. A. Clark, - of Owego,
addressed the Eagles and their guests in'a
short'speech filled with the kindliest ex
'pressions. After Judge Clark's remarks the
members of the Naiads were seYerallY in
troduced to the members of Eagle, and
then ,an adjournment was had to the Park
Hotel where rooms had been- provided for
the use of the Naiads. The forenoon, was
pecsed by the boys as forenoons are generally
passed on such occasions, the F,agle boys
leaving nothing undone that could in any
wise add to the enjoymentlof their guests.
Dinner was partaken of:at the, Park House,
and after dinner came the parade. All
along the route that tho plessien moved
the dwellings were handsomely decorated
with flags, streamers, evergreena. and
flowers.. A laige number of people crowd
ed the walks along the entire route, and'
the firemen were frequently. cheered as
they passed in review. The whole- affair
passed off 'in the most creditable manner,
and • was prenounded by the citizens of
Owego as among the finest Firemen's Parades
ever had in that plaCe.
.
In 'the evening the Germania Band
tendered the • coinpliment of "a serenade
to C. H. Keeler, editoi; of the Record, and
Hon. C. A.'-Clark, at their residences on
Main street and Mr: Beebe, on• behalf of
Mr. Keeler, and Judge' Clark in person
thanked the boys in neat speeches for their
fine music. Returning from Judge Clarks'
the band halted in front of the Park House
where they played several pieces which
were listened to by quite a crowd ' of, peo-.
pie and warmly applauded. At about 8:31C1
di. in., the Naiads were escorted to the,
gepot by the Eagles and took the train for
come, where they arrived at about 11
.o'clock, all uniting inl pronouncing the day
a highly enjoyable one, and long to, be re
membered. The Naiads are unanitnous;in
the expression that the Eagle 4 boys, as
entertainers, are entitled td "the cake."
Individually gentlemen, collectively they
constitute one of the finest appearing and
best drilled fire organizations in southern
New York.
Tha Naiads and tht - Germania - Band at
tracted narked attention, in the column tis
it moved over the ronte, and both organ
iiations were the reeepients of numerous
compliments.
In its report of the days doings, the
Record' thus refers to them :
The first to arriv Was Naiad Bose Com
pany, No. 2, of Toranda, reaching Owego
by way of the Southern Central at little
atter - nine• o'clock, ;This company was
neatly uniformed in gray shirts, black.pants
'and - white fire hats, and were a fine body of
gentlemen, numbering twenty-fire. They
brought %I-WI them a pretty hose carriage.
The Germania Band, numbering 19 pieces,
accompanied them, and there was no finer
appearing body in the procession. ' Their
uniforms were blue pants, with gilt . stripe,
white coats,. gold laced, astrachan caps with
white plumes, and their music was highly
acceptable. Mr. E. Ntralker, Jr., was the

Alsother Safe Mown Open,
On Thursday night a safe in the coal
office of S. J. Strait ,was burglarized, a pro
cess entirely useless, as since one of a gang
now serving sentence intimated that the
safe was to be "cracked," it has been left
unlocked. But it seems that the cracksmen
did not take the trouble to examine the
lock, and drilled a small hole above the
combination, - filled it with powder and blew
off the plate, after which it was an easy
matter to manipulate the door, which as
before stated: was not locked. A buggy
cushion was laid on the floor and a horse
blanket thrown over the safe to deaden the
sound. The inside drawer of the safe was ,
found near the railroad bridge, and the
scoundrels must have been very much sur
prised when they found only a few pennies
and nickles amounting to perhaps a!dollar
for their trouble. This is the second or third,
act of the kind within a yeiir or two, and
each time the same suspicious , characters
have dropped .into town. This 'time the
tracks of three could be traced in the coal
dirt at the office door. The presumption is
that one was Imported mid the other two
home talent. Would it not be well to hire
a watch now -and then when such things
seem liable to take place from the presence
of suspicious - persons. Property owners
would not object it would seem to a 'reason

tion.—Canton Sentinel.

TIM WOOD REUNION
Says the Smithfield Correspondent of the
Athens Gazelle, under date of September
6th: The reunion of, the decendants of
Samuel Wood took place last Monday, at
the residence of Willard A. Wood, who is a
grandson of the former. ,Samuel Wood
came to this town over seventy years ago,
luaving been raised in New England, where
he lived till several of his children were
grown up. He had a numerous posterity
—twenty children, the most of whom had
large , families themselves. Tne decendants
are a'werthy race of. people. While none
of them ever attained any great distinction
in the world, theaverage of them are
telligent and religous, and some are per
sons of good education and a considerable
culture. Bet Ween three and four hundred
persons were present, the most of them
being relatives of the Wood family, A
few came from the West and a good many
from localities not far distant. C. H. Wood
of Kansas, prepared an addiess'ivhich con
tained the geneaOlogy of the Wood's. He
traced their 'ancestry,
_lack to the seven
teenth century, a period 'of over two hun
dred years. His remarks were very ap
propriate for the occasion, as were also the
remarks of several others. The day was
beautiful and every one looked very happy,
the best of all there was ;in air of sincerity
that pervaded, which exceeded that of
gathering that it has fallen my lot' to
witness. The associations connected with
the occasion were such touched the finer
chords of one's nature. The presence of
the livipg and thelender memories of the
beloved dead caused mutual symPathy

The Spring Hill Brass Band was in at
tendance and enlivened the occasion with
'excellent music.
There was a time of general hand shak
ing and renewing of old memories ; old ac
quaintances were renewed and many 'new
ones formed. These social family re-unions
are becoming quite popular and as they
serve to cement and strengthen the family
bond they may ; be productive of great good,
in widening and deepening the channels of
genuine brothirhood,: and, in teaching us
the great primordial fact that " We be
