LARGE FIRE IN WELLSBORO.--At shout
a quarter to two o'clock last Thursday morn
ing some of the boarders at the 'Wellsb?ro
Hotel in this village were 'aroused by an
alarm of 'lire from the outside. A few gen:
tlemen lodging in the hottswat once hastened
to investigate the matter. They- found
_that
the back room of Mr. E. H. Hastings's gro
cery store was in flumes.'- Thiiportidn of the
store was a shanty-like structure built of
rough battened boards and was used as a
storeroom. It connected with the store prop
er by a door which seemed to be opened
when the Ilto was discovered. The store
room or warehouse also had a back door
leading out to the yard behind the building.
This door was secured night by a stout
bar of
.wood placed across,it. The proprie
tor o? the store is certain it was fastened in
that way \ yednesday night when the store
was closed. Among other- articles left in this
backroom that night were two kerosene bar
rels, standing on end, frdm one of which the
oil had been nearly all drawn, while the oth
er was full and had not been tapped.' No
person slept in the store.
Toe nia man who_attempted to get into
the burning- more acter - the_alarm Was given
was Me., 11. S. Hastings. He first burst open
the front door, but found the room so filled
with Lot, •blinding - smoke that it was impos
sible to pass thcough it. e. closed
that (loOr and went around to - the back door
of the storeroom. Upon going to that door
it was found to be a little way ajar. It we;
puelied wide oPen, when the room was found
to be all in flames. A kerosene barrel was
seen to .be lying on its side nearly in the
middle of the floor between the two doors.
Water Was at once thrown Upon the fire, but
it was soon found that all efforts to subdue it
in that way we're utterly hopeless, and those
who were, at work there became convinced
that the floor was covered with burning
About a. 4 soon as this discovery was made a
violent lexpl i o,ion occurred, shattering the
whole heck wall of the storeroom and ren
dering all efforts to fight the ilrain that di
rection vain.
Meanwhile a general alarm had been
sounded, and a great crowd of citizens had
gathered to do what they could toward sav
ing the threatened property. It was evident'
that the whole block of buildings on Main
street between Central Avenue and, Crafton
street must be destroyed, as-that part of the
street was built up solidly and mainly of
wood, the only brick building being the_
store o cupied by Guttenberg, Rosenbaum
& Co., 'llia was but two stories high and
was QV rtopped by Harden's shingle roof
nest below. The people who first arrivl,d
upon the ground went to work with a will to
It
removethe.cuntents of the hotel and stores,
and by their united efforts considerable of
the furniture and moveable property was
, aved, though some of it was in a badly
damaged condition. _ ,
Although our village has no fire depart
ment, the engine was promptly brought up
on the ground. It was placed at the well be
tween the hotel and Prothonotary's office,
and might have done efficient service in that
quarter but for a mishap by which the sue
-Lien-hose-was dropped down the well. Af
ter !woe precious minutes were lost the hose
was fina:ly recovered; but it was then evi
dent that the hotel was doomed, and the en
gine was moved down Man street and took
w:Lter from a well in front of Bowen & Cone's
'Thick. As it turned out, the capacity of
1 this well was ample for the occasion, and the
engine did good service in aiding to protect
' the buildings below Crafton street and on
1
the At-milieu:A side of Main street.
When 'the roof of llarden's large double
tore had become thoroughly ignited it was
evident that•the only point at which the pro
gress of the lire could be limited on the north
was Grafton street, and a) increase thechan
ce4 of 'success at that point it was de
clad to tear down the low frame buildings
on (he corner. By means of axes and ropes
this work was partially accomplished, and
when the flames reached the demolished
buddings the engine, although but lightly
manned patt of the time, found but, little
ditliculty iu keei t iing them in subjection.
At the other end of the burnt'district the
heat from the hotel was so great that fur a
roc the Prothonotary's office, was consider
ed in some dan4er. Carpets were spread up
on the roc ! l, however; and a few citizens
- a'rrned with pails sufficed to protect it from
damage.
Praha!)ly the hotest fight of the night Was
- waged at the barn and out-buildings to the
nortlili,-est of the hotel. The distance' from
the hotel to these combustible structures was
not very greatr - but_plenty of water was at
hand in tine creek, andthere , were plenty of
willin haliuls to we it; and - so — the whole row
wa., saed. The d ruction of this part of
the square would has placed the dwellings
on . the! northwest side of Water street in_
Breat d ,! .,iiy. or.
' Happily-, there was hardly any wind dur
ing tit progress of the tiro. The flames and
.sta i ,ke went. almost straight up, and although
the burnin`g, cinders flouted 'off to sumo dis
tance a little extra care and watchfulness
preVerited any further spread of the confla
gration.\ The fire burned rapidly, owing to
the combustible nature of the block. It was
about burned out by four o'clock, two hour's
thnoltaving sufficed' to destroy about forty
'thousand dollars worth of property.
Each of - the large plate-glass 'windows in
Wiltia i ms & Converse's block opposite the
burnt district Was crueaed by, the heat, al
though a, screen of boards-was placed in front
of , thein. The loss from this source amounts
to sevtiral hundred dollars. , A 4 _ -
Hardly anything was saved from fir. E.

REPORT OF THE COUNTY SUPERINTEND.
ENT.--annual report of E. Horton, Super
intendent of Tioga comity, for the school
year ending June 2d, 1873:
On comparing the school grounds, houses,
furniture, apparattis, &c., of our county
with the standard furnished us by the De
partment, I ilud that but• very few will stand
the test.
SCHOOL GROUNDS
-I regret that I can only report one hun
dred and sisty4tv'e of suffieient size--"of one
half an acre or more"—while, riot one is
suitably improved—"neatly fenced, planted,
with shade trees, and properly prepared as a
place for the plays of children." Only a
few are even fenced. It is strange that where
land is so plenty and so cheap, that at least
one-half an ere cannot be spared for the
children in very school district. -There is,
, no doubt but that the surroundings havo a
great deal to dotowurds rendering the schools'
pleasant and attractive as well as profitable.
Children love to go to School where every
thing is beautiful and Homelike; and as a
rule I always find the bdst schools where -I.
find the most attractive school drounds.
11.017,•.;F I S
During the year twelve new houses have
been built—ten to take the place of some- of
the "school'shanties," reported last year,
Lind two for new
i schools. Blossburg and Ar
not built new houses for new schools—both
beautiful . buildings and well adapted for
school purposes. I reported last year 'fifty-
SeVen "drat :class .Pousee," but upon com
paring them with the standard furnished,
viz., "one pleasantly located, well construct
ed, amply large, with a portico in front or at
the side, convenient places for baskets and
clothing, a case for books and apparatus,
ceiling at least twelve feet high, with not less
than one hundred square feet of black-board
surface, well lighted, well heated, well ven
tilated, and neatly furnished with peats
Adapted to the size of pupils, and when in
tended for"a graded school the above de
scription should apply to every room,'' and
in addition there should be a room for the
principal"—l. find that we have not cine that
will stand the test. Still Mir_ houses will
compare favorably with those of our sur
rounding sister counties. •
— lts have but fifteen of the "shantieS" or
those unfit for use left.
SCI/OOLS
Seven new schools lisive been added (lur
ing the year, making in all two"hundred and
seventy-eight; of these forty-six are graded,
tour more than last year. A large number
are poorly olassidep, owing to a multiplicity
of text books. I have again and again call
ed the attention of our directors to the Want
of a uniformity of text books, yet in many
of the districts the evil still exists. The Bi
ble is read In all of our schools, and in ma
ny the Lord's Prayer is repeated. The high
er branches are taught in all of our graded
schools and in many of our ungraded ones.
Vocal music is being introduced in xthiny
of our schools, seventy-one more than last
year, which is surely a move in, the right
direction. Map•drawing is taught in nearly
all of the F.CIIUOi3.. •
TEACEUMS.
Ninety-six ?Ales and two hundred and
forty-seven females have been employed
daring the year. Eighty have had no ex
perience. Ninety-one have - taught less than
one year. • One hundred and twenty', have
taught more than five years. Nine intend
to make teaching a profet,sion. One, hun
dred and forty-six have attended a Normal
School. Twenty-three have grtiduated at a
Normal School, and all who hav,e.taught in
the county have read books on teaching.
A few were almost failures, owing to a
want of government, butes a class our teach
ers are earnest and energej c and are Ai.
ious to du all that they car
or their schools.
Well qualified teachers were very scarce for
our winter schools, and necessity compelled
me to place a number in the schools who
were far below the standard; but with the
help of our Normal and Graded Schools we
oxpect to soon overborne this, and be able to
place in all of our schools teachers thorough
ly qualified. -
INSTITUTES.
Our County Institute was again very suc
cessful. Nearly three hundred and fifty
members were enrolled.
The instructors and lecturers were Profs.
F. A. Allen, A. C. Winters, Ira Bayles, Rev.
N. L. Reynolds and Miss Flora T. Persons.
I think the danger of our Institutes failing
for want of members is now past.
Our citizens as well as our teachers are
now anxious for the success of our Institutes.
The 'educational advancement during thq
year past compares favorably Witfi tfih pre
ceeding one. True, all has not been sun
shine. In some localities personal and sel
fish interests block the wheels for a time,
Mill the great car of progress moves onward,
and our schools receive the unqualified and
earnest support of our most prominent citi
zens. Our graded schobls have taken rapid
strides in advance during the Past two years.
Some of our .best scholars are now found' in
them.
Wellsboro High School under Prof. INTin
tors has prepared a class: of boys and girls to
enter college and some of there entered at:
the head of . their' class: - While *i: feel that
Our Teachers, Directors and citizens gener,•
ally deserve much praise and credit for the
advancement we have made, I still see that
there is much more to be done to bring all of
our people into complete harmony with the
present schoolsystem, so that all may work
together as "one man."
There4ike yet obstacles inth'a way j of im-.
ptovement, which we have mentioned in
former reports, consisting of "bearding
around," directors doing their work gratui
tously; and as.a.result. inefficient .dirtors,
&e.„ &c., all of which we expect to see ov
ercome in the "good time coming."
In conclusion I would add that during the
year I have held thirty-one public examine
tions7at Which three hundred and ninety-n in e
applicants were examined. Three hundred
and fifteen received provisional, and five
professional certificates. Seventy-nine were.

any other tnan.t
•
And he has sold his yoke' of steers, likewise
his yeller dog,
And left bis double•bitted az a•stiokin' in the
log a
Ras donned his brightest scarlet shirt, "And
now," says he, - "I shall
Jest take a walk to Brindlevillelf and haie a
talk withßal,"
, . .
Whin gentle-Sally saw him come•she
:ped bet , gathered leeks,
Her wterfaDli came tumbling down, the
roes left her cheeks ;
"Oh John I" she cried, "you're all drest up,
an'd I know what it's for,
You've 'l l isted for a volunteer—you're gem&
to the war I"
" Oh Sally, dry your_ lovely eyes and do not
. be afraid,
But bear thee galyantlye,as should a Potter
county maid;
And give to me some trifling thing:—a token
ere I go,
That I may wear it as a badge in presence of
the foe."
Then stooped this lovely, blushing maid,
and from her tiny heel
Unstrapped a wondrous instrument—a shin
ing spur of steel,*#
"And wear thou this," the damsel said, "for
it shall be thy shield--;
Thy talisman against all harm upon the bat
tle tiehl."
Oh, many a field in Dixie's land, and many
a Southland stream
Has seen that fearless. volunteer—that leek- ,
. nook's awful gleam '
And soon the Johnnies learned to 'say
"There comes that cussed Yank,
Who wears a bayonet on his heel and strikes
us . zn the flank I"
At Malvern Hill, at Gettysburg, and at The
Seven Pines,
That fearful leek-hook flashed like tire along
• the rebel lines;
"Because," said John, "I hold it true that
any man of nerve
Can kill more.Rebs to go it on his indivldu
, al curVe."if.
And so for three long years - he fought o'er
many it weary- mile,
Killing six general officers, with scores of
rank' cud tile; .
And whoresoe'cr that leek•hook flashed, by
river, hill or plain,
''Twas there the fiercest fighting was—the
biggest heap of slain ! -
All honor to the shining blade that digs the
fragrant root,t4
Yet makes a fearful weapon ou a Potter
county foot! .
All honor to our soldiers who the rebel
Cause liare e smaihed !
And let us pray that John and Sal may run
together lashed.
4 Tho President of the late Confederate
States, Mr. Jeflerson Davis.
NOTES.
rOr aily other man," was a slang phrase
of the peOod„ and means in the „text "or any
other rebel."
The d(spositiou of his personal property
is indicative of Hie haste with which the he
ro rushed to the defense of his country, and
is not intended by the poet as a complete in•
voice of hie personal effects.
!;The ancient name of the pleasant village
of Owayo, a poet-town at the head waters
of a creek "of the seine name, a tributary of
the Allegheny which it:joins at Olean, N.-Y.,
The place was first eetiled by Ichabod C.
Bradley, of•fierkimer, N. Y., who was fa
miliarly known to his neighbors as "Old
Brindle" on account of the color of his hair.
Hence 13rindleville, which has now given
place to • the' more enplioniOus name of Os
wayo, the name of the .:stream,:whichis said
to mean in the Indian dialecrdancing shad-
ONVO."
HAlthough, as a rule, waterfalls genetalbr
"eome tumbling down," it is not to be sup.
posed that this has any 'reference toe. cas
cade or cataract on the Oswayo which has,
been declaied navigable by law, (see pane - -
pblet laws fOr 1843,) but to a very peculiar
coiffure of the period,
_a head-dress which
time has muchly modified but not wholly
eradicated.
**This instrument exists only in the im
agination of the poet, and no such tool Is ne
cessary, as will be seen by a subsequent note.
A strict adherence to the facts of history,
science, or art, would destroy much poetry
and many very pretty romances—this among
oth erB.
ffThis obscure phrase was the slang of the
poriod for unorganized individual effort fol
lowed with courage 'and , persistence in any
given direction.
aThe leek (allium pomora) is indigenous
to Switzerland and to the mountains of North
America. It has been.eultivated in
,ii.'urope
for over 800 years, and % horticulturiSts have
produced from it many varieties used in
modern cookery, particularly in soups to
which it gives u pungent and agreeable fla
vor... It grows only in loose alluvial SOils
and is easily pulled up ; has a white, bulbous,
oval-shaped root, and a slender stalk, fout to
six inches in length, formed by concentric
layers of leaves. •Thisroot must not be con
founded with the a4ium or garlic - Of the
ancient Romans, which has itbroad, flat and
sti fr , leaf. The Voisli—Probibly •the Oldest
distinctive people in • Europe—many • centu
ries ago.ndopted the leek as their national,
emblem, corresponding in signitlcitnce to the
Irish, shamrock, the Scotch . thistle; and . the
English rose; and the leek-iirworn in Welsh
bats on St. David's day with as much pride
as the shathrockis worn -by Irishmen on St..
Patrickls day.
_For some curious references
to this fact,.seeShakesPeare's Henry V., Part
3, Act V., Scene 1. Among the early set
tlers in western Tioga, Potter And' McKea ,
counties the use of the- leek as an ari,l;o
food in the early siting was quite common;
and' its anti-phlogistic, and . lantiscorbutic
qualities rendered itra gentle stimulant to the
liver, which was always followed by good
effects.
tijln justice it should be stated that no
county in•the Union sent any .more soldiers
ill proportion to the population then did
