--4 We are indebted to Governor Hartranft
for an early copy ofthe general laws - pasied
by thelast'Legislature. The pamphlet Con
tains sixty-one acts and three jointresolu
tions. Some of the laws are of especial in
terest, and we shall refer to them hereafter.
—The first number. Of 1.110 ToWandk,./Oui.-
;nal, aneat folio witheixeolumns to the page,
has reached us. AlthoUgh the flMrth paper
published in that borough, it 'seems to have
found a field not too - craw dedi if we may
judge frOm the quantity of advertising in its
tinges. Its editor and 'publisher, Mr. D. M.
Turner, says he is, willing to work and wait
for success, and we, judgehe will achieve it.
He has our best wi shes: •-
If the new posial-ciirds were printeil'lvith
a blank one-half or three-quarters of an inch
wide at tne left end of the addrass, side, it
would be posaible to file thorn for future ref
erence even when' written full an the other
side. With an open Work border at that end
leaving space for filing, the card would look
just as well as it does now and bemuch more
useful. The Postmaster general is welcome
to the hint without,charge.
—The entertainment for the benefit of the
Oood templarsct this place, on Tuesday
evening of lust w eh, Was a success. The
exercises consisted of singing, tableauX and
a farce entitled "His last Legs.", O'Callaghan
seemed to be the star of the• evening and his
really fine •apiing drew frequent applause
from the audience. The characters were all
we ‘ ll played;,,6nd every ona was satisfied.
Quite a largValance was loft for the treas
ury,after pay g the expenses.
—About. two o'clock yesterday morning
the residence of GeOrge Christie on Sheridan
street caught Eire as is supposed by the ex
plosion of a kerosene oil lamp. Mr ; Christie
was at Blossburg;' and his wife and two
young children, the only 'persons in the
house at_ the time, escaped through abed
room Window, barely savine their lives. A
few articles of furniture were.taken from the
burning building, by the neighbors. Loss
about $l,OOO. Partially insured in Hugh
'young's agency.
—The Corning Journal says ; "We recent
ly heard of a small post office iri Tioga coun
ty, tbal 1 ely failed to receive in due season
i l the sup' of stamps ordered, and the Post
master ut those in two that ,he had on hand
so as to be able to mail all ' letters handed in.
He told Or inforMant that it was the only
way he could do in the emergency, as other
wise the Otters sent'from his office would be
thrown
O ide and apt to the Dead Letter of
fice. It Was Onovel, as well as a funny
mode of showing that 'he was 'master of the
situation:' "
—Last - week a great improvenalent was
made in the arrangement of the rest office
in this village. The boxes and drasers were
moved to the back end of .the sto e) and so
I n
"'laced as to form an acute Ogle fro. , ting to
wardirthefront door. The letter=box and
general delivery wicket are placed at the an
gle, directly in the middle of the store. The
general cases for letters and newspapers have
been placed next the delivery wicket so that
the delivery clerk can attend to all calls
rapidly and with the least trouble. About'
250 boxes and •8 lock drawers have been add
ed. The office is now about as conveniently
arranged as possible. . .

—There was a meeting °Dile corporators
of the Wellsboro and 'State Line Rai:road
at Westfield last Wednesday. A. temporary
organi‘zation was effected by the election of
Judge Williams as Chairman and Senator
Strang es-Secretary. It was stated that
,the
engineer corps'had - Completed the Survey of
that part of the proposed route lying between.
Westfield and the State Line,• but that the
report of the Chief Engineer Was not yet ,
made out It was understood that the route
was found entirely praCticable. After a gen
eral interchange of opinions, by the gentle
men present, Messrs. Krusen and Simmons
were' appointed to receive subscriptions to
the stock, and the corporators adjourned to
meet in this village on the call of the Chair
man sometime during the next term of Court.
—Next to the pleasure of ,catching brook
trout is .the delightful duty of devouring
them after they
. are caught; and that duty
was suddenly imposed - upon us one day last
week by our good -friend 11. C. Vermilyea
who surprised us by a goodly number of the
speckled beauties fresh from thO• waters of
Pine Creek. We assure Mr. Vermilyea'not
a single trout of them all saffered u from ne
glect. As one good turn deserves another,
we hope one of ,these fine days, when busk
ness grows less pressing, to, returnthe visit
of the trout, and test the truth
of the common
rumor which has got about to the effect that
Mr. Vermilyea keeps - the most enjoyable ho
tel in all this region. When we take that
trip, if we don't earn our own dinner by
catching it, we feel sure that we shren' t have
to go without it. ‘,

, —The public schools cr. , this village close
next week. The week will be mainly devo
ted to examinations of the several -depart
ment.3. The parents, of the sebolars are '
ted to attend these examinations,- and it, is
earnestly hoped there will be a general turn
out to' seo what progress the children are
making in their studies. 'One of the' best
and easiest ways to encourage any school is
to slum a personal concern for it. There is
certainly nothing Which should possess more
living interest for every parent:than the
thorough' education of his ehildren. The
money that you judiciously put inside your
b6y's head is just the money that he can nev-,
er lose by misfortune nor squander in folly.
You should at least devote as much care and
timelo the training of your children as you
would to the training of a favorite horse, and
make sure that yeiir own means and your
child's time aro jr7diciously expended.
t—Good hotels are of substantial advantage
to any place, and it: is therefore withnoSmall
degree of satisfaction that we note the recent
improvements in two principal public
houses of Wallshoro. We have heretofore,
spoken of the improvements in the •Burfnet:
House; and We • lenovation of the 014 .and
popular liVellsboo Hotel is not less worthy
of notice, Indeed, nobody can enter the,
house or• even pass it without noticing the
improvements .within arid without. It.
possible here to enumerate ail the changes,
but the new and handsome (Online° on Main street, the brOad new main stairivay,l l the
clear plate-glass" windows and the generous
addition's to the building, increasing at once
the size of the dining room and the number
of Pleasant apartments-on the first floor, must
. attract the attention of the most careless ob
server. The renovation of the house "from
'turret to foundation-stone" will soon be corn
complete, and the crowd of attendants at
Court here next Week will have a chance to
inspect and appreciate the increasedconven
iences of the establishment. •

the brain which 'compiled the news and -the
hand which printed it have mouldered into_
dust, the fli - nasy and unsubstantial fruit i lof

after a more vivid imPression of the. adtual
condition of society than could be obtained
from the most ambitious historian or On
most minute annalist. The public journal
painted toj.day is in imminent danger of de-

Of ours which we are so apt to look upon as
anything but good. And the second estate:
of that newspaper will be better than the
first, for the cohulms* -Which • many readers
now giant ana carelessly over as dry
'wresting minas announcements will then
be scanned as the most authentic record of
the actual life of the day.
• These thoughts have been suggested by a
few public journals of "the long ago" which
hive recently been laid'on our table by Corn
missioner klollis. We receive every week
probably a hundrea newspapers, .some of
them the 'ablest and most influential in the
country, and yet among them all we find
none so interesting as these dingy little sheets
that have survived=' nearly three generations
of men and come down tfi us freighted with
the thoughts, the feelings and passions of
people not one of whom we ever knew, and
of most of whom we never so much as heard.
One of these sheets, with a large amount of
name for a small quantity of news, is about
li quarter the siie of this week's AGITATOIC
and is called the "Virginia Gazette t f - Peters
burg Intelligencer." It was published every
Tuesday and Friday by William Frentis,
and the subscription price was four dollars.
The last number we have is printed on course,
heavy, blue paper, like cheap wall paper and
iB numbered 943, showing the journal to be
about nine years old in 1798, when that copy
seas issued. We don't know whether the
Gazette 4. - Intellig6ncer still-has a being ; but
if it haS, no doubtits preknt editor manages'
to get foreign news less than ten weeks old'
into its columns. That is about the average
news matter in the copies before
news from Europe at that time (179,8)

i s the editor consulted his own inter
ling the paper with it. Be that as it
Lain it is that tUre is hardly any
Matter in it except dispatches from
!vent, and from England find Ire
iating to the war between the French
English. The whole, amount of do
news given in either of these sheets
iirdly fill a quarter of one of the A 0,13

columns ;, and as for local news,
eagerly looked after at this day,

that the word "pence" is always used to the

TILE Core ii.OLLOW. ERVERPRISE.-12ditOr
Agitator—Dß./tic Stu: Since I wrote to you
we have been )roving rather exciting times in
the Hollow. We held a meeting the other,
evening and spent considerable time in try
ing to make a satisfactory arrangement about
dividing the Hollow. giggles, was Cbair
matt of the meeting, and` he Orplained - the
good which must result tikuin such o divis
ion. He referred frequently to a map of - the
Hollow, so that ho would not get off the track
and thus rub the risk of getting lost. But
he residents of the western end of the Hol
ow don't seem to have much confidence in
Giggles: They say he has been trying to get
elected Supervisor some time, and they think
that'he rants to get the Hollow divided So
that he Will lave things all his own way.—
But they are mistaken ; Giggles is all right;
he is acting in good faith and act from any
selfish motives. The meeting wa la total fail
ure. We hll agreed that to divit e the Hol
law w n si la l in ~ t ,., 1 ngl idea and wtuld bonotit
all parties concerned ; but when we ClllllO to
talk about that school-house, then we got in
to trouble. We argued .and explained the
thing over and over again, but all to no pm. %
pose. We told Them how much better it
would be . if the school-house was only re
moved to one of the corners. The scholars
could then have access to it from - three 'dif
ferent directions. When ' the Meeting broke
up, there were a great many sour faces to bo
seen.
By the tune this letter reaches you I shall
have the etazette office in full blase.. I hfive
ordered n 'press—not a cheese press, // but a
printing press—and made arrangeme7ttl, with
a Philadelphia firm to furnish me / withi pat
ent outsides. I have also securd theOrvi
ces of a number of 'noted correspondents.—
One of them is to write a series of articles
upon Canada thistles and/Milk weeds. Of
local quill drillers I have one in Frost Settle
nient, one at Goesotown, one at Stony Fork
and several others scattered about in differ
ent parts of the State. I have one ink sling
ist who is in the habit of writing just four
articles a year. He never writes about any
thing, but Spring, Summer, Autumn and
Winter. • Ho is the best seasoned writer I
'ei , er saw. ;
Ono day last summer a man received his
paper from the office, and sitting down by
the side of the road he commenced to read
an article on Winter, written by the gentle
men just referred to. It was written in such
a cold manner that by the time ho had fin•
iShed reading it he Was frozen stiff and re
mained in that condition until the paper vas
taken out of his hand. He then Commend©d
thawing out,and in a short time wAs all right
again. Yours, for the division of the, Hol
