DEATH or A TIOGA. COIEINTY MAN.
The Steuben Courier of the sth has the following
"Mr. Isaac Baker an esteemed citizen of Occola,
Pa. while on a visit to his relatives and friends at
Elmira last week, met his death in a singnlar
manner. Ho was stopping for the night• at
Wilcox's Hotel, and having occasion to get up,
left his room to go out of the house. Mistaking
his way, ho walked off • from the front balcony,
falling some fifteen feet to the ground, his head
striking the ground so hard as to kill him in
stantly. Mr. Baker was upwards of sixty years
of ago. "
MA.NSPIELD,—The Furnace resumed
blast on the 4st inst., with a, set of workmen who

derstand the baldness- Mr. Lutz it" akin in 'barge.
The " Star of Hope" Society had a festival
on the evening of the 4th inst., which passed off
very pleasantly. The Society numberA_ over 100
members.
Letters from Prof. Streit bring the - gratifyit
intelligence of his improvement iu health.
A GOOD BED.—SOllletillle ago we
purchased a bed made of birch splints, made by
Mr. Elisha. Graves, of Richmond. Its perfect
cleanliness and its elasticity commended the bed
to our judgment from the fast. Use only con
firms us in the estimate of its excellence then
formed. Better than straw or husks, and abso
lutely indestructible, we prefer it to the best hair
mattress ever made. Its price is within the
reach of the poorest.• As we-paid cash for this
bed this is not a puff for a consideration. Mr.
Graves often brings these beds to town, and we
commend them to everybody.
HAIL-STORM IN LIBERTY.—Mr. Fop.
R. Sheffer, writes us from Liberty, Aug. 5,
concerning a destructive hail-storm which ravaged
a portion of that township, as follows :
"On Wednesday, sth inst., our township was
visited by the most destructive bail-storm ever
experienced in this region. The storm appeared
to gather in - the. southwest corner of the township,
and moved with great rapidity in a northeasterly
track, passing over the northern portion of Jack
son, Lycoming county, and the southern half of
our township. The storm was preceded by a ter
rible gale which prostrated the crops, and the
hail, which was all the way from the size of a pea
to that of a walnut, literally cut everything in
pieces. Fruit, corn, oats, buckwheat, wheat, and
the uncut grass, in the track of the storm, are
nearly a dead loss. The destruction of glass was
very great!!
This storm gathered on tho Marsh Creek
mountains, and passing south of Wellsboro, was
visible in the direction of Liberty for an hour.
GOSSIP.—Is there a man or a woman
of memory so poor, that "he or she, as the case
may be," does not remember how sometimes in
his or ber.childhood, he or she awoke in the
morning, each nerve projecting (seemingly) above
the surface,' peevish, fretful, unhappy Not a
rag of clothing fittingi Comfortably ; if n boy,—
buttons and button-licdes contrary, boots hard,
stiff, and uncompromising ; boot-straps * broken,
and everything at sixes and sevens; if a girl,—
hooks and eyes, pins, pinafores,—all missing, or
bent, or out of sorts; a stoeliing gone, shoe
strings in a hard knot, and a feeling of indcs_
eribablo "onpleasantness" prevading the body
and soul? If you remember such an experience,
do you not also remember how, as your peevish
ness developed itself, your mother recommended
you to "go to bed and get up right end foremost"!
Out mothers were skilfull interpreters of childish
inconsistencies and irregularities. They had
good set terms in which to express themselves,
"You got out of bed wreng end foremost"—ex:.
Betty describes the "situation" which commands
childhood often, and which 'we have faintly
depicted inAhe outset of this gossip. Everybody
remembers that on such occasions the trouble
seldom departed with the morning hours, but
cotnmonlySollowed on like a shadow all dtiy
long. We pounded our tingeis, we stepped on
rusty nails, we "stubbed" our toes, we ton , our
new trowsers, and got spanked; and all day long
mishap followed upon the swift feet of misfortune.
—Which brings us to out "mutton," and per
'sits us to point the moral involved. That is to
say: A young man may get himself up wrong
end foremost in starting out in the battle of life
as often as the child gets out of bed in the same
reversed order. when a young man listens to
the siren tongue of faliehood and folly, rejecting
the counsels of men of solid character because it
involves sacrifice to do right, he acts out wrong
end foremost, and invites a lifetime of mishaps
and misfortune. When a young man turns
squarely about, and lays a big flat stone upon
conscience, he sets put wrong end foremost.
When a young man 'chooses to renounce his
allegiance to principle, and espouses the wrong
because it promises a pecuniary reward, ho sets
out wrong end foremost; and if he ally himself
with men of questionable morals and more
questionable ehterprise, he insults the Providence
!Mob Waited for him at the twenty-first mi/e.
stone on the journey of life, and which wilt stand
before him to warn and invite from evil courses,
until by continued insult conscience shall shake
the dust from its feekAnd depart from his bosom- .
fold forever. Alf, yiintig man, how much easier
it appears to be for you to listen to the evil
whisperings of men who care nothing for you
except to snake you fetch and carry for their
selfinh aggrandizement, than it is to give laced to
the counsel of - men who would make you fit
inheritorS of the responsible trusts of human
welfare; Who would shape your future so that
the worll would be proud of you in life, and
regret you in death ! We have known young men
who kept the impressible side of their natures
always turned to the shadow of evil counsel,' and
to the sun of truth and honor turned always the
husk side; and not one of them has yet earned
tho respect 001:len whose respect has a value
above dollars and cents.
—Again : The man who deliberately ar
proaclies a young man though his defects and
weakness, is always a scoundrel ; and the man
who makes human weakness and miseducation
his opportunity, is a murderer, ' Is it not written
"Fear nqt those who kill the body, hut rather
those who kill' the soul"?—and shall the man who
deliberately ruins a soul, be less condemned than
the man who cuts a throat? We say "no"; a
thousand time's "no"! And wo say it boldly,
without fear of successful contradiction and
without apology now or hereafter, that the mania
who puts another man to his selfish uses, as
citizen or as a servant, is worse than the man
who cuts a throat or picks a pocket. BCCIIUfIe a
man may survive lose of life, but never a loss of
his honor and independence. The young man
who parts with his money foolishly is to be pitied;
but a young man who suffers himself to be flat
tered and cajoled out of his independence must
become the scorn of all substantial men, and the
puppet of the vicious.
—Again: - Young man of weak will and mi . *
eduented,minds often aro imposed upon by' the
ostentation of respectable acoundrellana. Perhaps
you may take exception to the adjective, young
man. It is the right word, however. A respec
table scoundrel, and a respectable thief, are both
facts. Tt\t3 man who makes man's extremity his
opportunity, and waxes rich in that way, is a
respectable thief. And the man ,whopresumes
upon his social standing to deceive a yoUng man
to his moral damage, is n respectable villain.—
Such men flourish for a season and the superficial
are glad to bow at his bidding. But there comes
a day when his life putrefies, and becomes a
stench in the nostrils of good men. Soon or late
God avenges such outrages. Soon or late the
victims of such men awake to see themselves as
others see them, and to be broken on the wheel of
publi contempt.
CORNER-STONE LAYING.—IMPRESB
- CERENIONIES.—The Corner-Stone of the now
M. E. Church edifice in this Tillage was laid with
appropriate and impressive ceremonies Wednes
day afternoon, sth inst.; at 2 o'clock. The at
teAdance was large, including Many persons
from a distance. The day, which opened with
fineztornise, toward noon became clouded, and
the occasional muttering of thunder in the west
caused apprelMnsion of interruption. The exer
cises commenced by singingthe 961st hymn,
followed by the Dedicatory Prayer by the pastor,
Rev. 0. L. oibson. A boy, hermetically sealed,
was then deposited in the Corner-Stone by the
pastor, who reported the contents as follows:
A Copy of the llely Bible.
Cop' of the Methodist Discipline.
Copy of the last annual Reports of the Church
benevolent societies.
The Methodist Almanac for 1868.
Register'of the East Oenessee Conference for
1867.
Copies of the Christian Advocate," "Northern
Christian Advocate," "Methodist," Tioga County
Agitator," "Wellsboro Democrat," "New York
Tribune," and '.`The World."
A historical account of the Society , since its
foundation in 1520, including a list of its minis
teA.
The Corner-Stone was laid by Bev. Wesley
Cochran, Pre t 'iding Elder, who concluded the
ceremony with prayer.
At this stage of the proceedings the promise
of rain was sa much increased that the audience
adjourned to the Court House. Thn Court noOm
was densely crowded, many being unuble to get
seats. Here, after singing the hymn commen
cing—
"On this stone now laid with prayer.
Let thy Church rise strong and fair,"
Prayer was offered by Rev. J. J.Turton, ofLaw
renceville. Rev. Dr. D. W. C. Huntington, 01
Rochester, was then intropuced by the pastor,
and preached from Acts 3—" Therefore, they
that were scattered t abroad went everywhere
preaching the word."
Of this discourse we flint it very difficult to
speak as it deserves. As an unstudied, nuns
tentations, extemporaneous effort, one will go far,
and hear a thousand greatly inferior to one at
alt its equal. It 'evinced rare command of
thought and grace of diction, and proceeded to
the elucidation of the subject by the most direct
modes known to logic. The teaching of the
discourse was the function of man in the gov
ernment of the moral universe, and illustrative of
the cumulative forces of Christianity in the ex
pansion of the system through nineteen centuries
of time. We suppose no manor woman heard
that sermon and did not recognize in thespeaker,
a pure, true, good man. '
Rev. 0. L. Gibson, the pastor, followed with a
brief of the histoey of the'ehurch since its organ
ization in 1820, a subject pleasantly presented
and highly interesting to all. He was followed
by Henry Sherwood, Esq.,.in a brief but. appro
priate address, 'in which the importance of
Church enterprise in connection with temporal
affairs was urged With point and vigor, closing
with an appeal to the generosity of the public in
support of this enterprise.
A description of the Church building as it
to be will be of interest, and we present the I'M

and none should neglect the opportunity of
hearing the lectures and consulting the Doctors.

it may ho handled and used by children, and
persons who are ignorant of klediciries. •
SECOND-It is found that Salutifer will relieve
severe pain in any part of the body sooner than
