McCand les*, was delivered at a meeting of the Philomathean Society April 7th and is pub lished at the request < f the society. It was written on the Union of the Irv ing Debating Club and the Neotrophian Literary society. There were two Socie ties the" Bryants and the Xeotrophian. be sides the debating club in the S. R. S.N S. and Dr. Maltby suggested that two Socie ties would be better and in consequence of this the Irvings made a proposal of union to the Xeotrophians which they accepted and the Dr. named the society Philoroa thian. My pegatds bore me away To literature's fair land of day! The (l)king sat on his royal throne His bright smile on his subjects shown. The god of all past history, The Jupiter of prophesy Beneath him had(2) three stars so bright They made a noon-day out of night. The one a prince with heart to dare, While princesses the others were. With splendid voice, which never died. He becked his bright prince to his side. Then came the prince with youthful face, With (3) golden shield, and manly grace, With labor truly nobly done To echo on the storms of time. He had given to the storm New music for Old Thunder's horn; But to his king he nobly drew. In Alercy King do what you do, 1 lo\e the service in thy land, If thou must pluck me from command Make me a peasant Jn thy land. Then spoke the King with tosea so grand They seemed to fill the sun-lit land. My Irving tbou'rt a noble lad; Thou glory to my crown doth add. 'Tis not my mind to cast you way; More glory give I thee to-day. Not to be driven from the land Thou didst come nigh at my command. In good service thou hast stiiven, Thou Shalt have by thy King given, The hand that thou hast nobly won. Of Princess Xeotrophian. Then clapped the Thunders of the sky, The lightning even flashed bis eye, As from his hidden face he saw # The stars dance brilliant in eclat. He called the princess to his side, With (4igolden locks in black bands tied. Behold my princess here to be The prince who'th wooed and loveth thee. Tbon art no more in my domain To walk and labpr on in twain: For as from on my throne on high I'v9 olt seen glance from eye to eye To look out from the heart within To tell that old, old tale a«ain. I saw, and lo! those eyes of grace Beamed full upon his manly face. Back fell his baldric, (s)green and gold. And to bis bosom strong and bold. As Monon's bosom dotb embrace Sweet Monon's rill, with sparkling face; Prince Irving, truly princely son, Received Lis NeotropbiaD. liebiodf uiuaea then in chord, With melody new music poured While gods if injth kept dance, aud t'jjct;, And all that giveth pen its speech Swelled wiib the jti Mercy's seat.

His subjects sang and seemed to say, As fourth they ponred the Music's swell, And rapture on new rapture fell; Till all was hidden out of sight As in a splendid robe of light, Through times of shadow and of sttn March on onr Philomathian. New worlds are waiting at Thy star was never born to tall. Thy soul shall live and wait to see New mysteries in eternity. NOTE—I Dr. Maltby; 2 The I. D. C. and the two societies; 3 The I. D.

Tbe law it thut any persou erecting or maintaining a pubic watering trough along any highway, e.i»ily accessible to horses or cattle, can, under a law ol IHB6, draw $5 a year from the couDly treasury. All such troughs must be confined to a length of road not less than five miles and to be so constructed as to accomo date horses and cattle with saiety for those in charge of them No pay will be granted for more than one trough on a five mile length of road, though auy person may erect a trough who chooses to as a public benifit. When this law is more generally understood there will be such troughs ou every five miles of road in Pennsylvania. —On July Ist ihere will be f«r sale at tbe postoffiee a new money otder by which large and small sums can be transmitted by letter with safety, and at rates tnucfc less than the present.

A Novel Temperance Plan. Atimperance scheme which combines one or two of the features of the celebrat- j ed Gothenburg plan with others decidedly novel has been devised by the Prohibition element in Haverhill. Mass. The last mu nicipal election in that city resulted in a decisive defeat of the temperance people, with the result that last week the licenf ing of saloons began, and within two days 20 groggeries bad sprung into a flourishing existence. The Prohibitionists have now determined to fight fire with fire, and are preparing a saloon of pilatial design where in they will sell liquor at the minimum rate of cost. No attempt will be made to make money, and if whiskey of a suffi ciently satisfactory grade can be purchased for 5 cents a glass" the Prohibitionists' sn loon will sell it for that. Beer will be sold for 2 cents. The theory is that ; n the face of the superior attractions aud extremely low rate of the new saloon the other 26 liquor vendors will lose all their trade, and be compelled to surrender their $2,000 li censes and go out ol business Then the Prohibitionists will close their own rum shop. remaining ready to open it again iu case their opponents "revive. It is an ex tremely interesting experiment, of which the first result will probably be a sudden influx to Baverbih of all the thirsty souls within a radius of twenty miles. What the after-effects will ba is yet to be ascer tained. If the Prohibitionists' funds hold out while they are nursuing their heroic methods they may succeed, though at the cost of having created a great temporary increase in drinking, and in the taste for it- —Every bottle of Arnica ays them better will probably be urged as " just as good."
