Normal School, at Mansfield. Ire will enter upon
the workf on the Ist of October.
BUsINESS.—Van Horn has been ad
ding valuable machinery to his shop on Pearl
street, among which we notice• a matching' ma
chine which grooves and tongues a board at one
operation, and very handsomely. This machine
will bo of great service to builders.
Messrs. Truman <V, Bowen have purchased
Bodine's Steam mill property in this borough,
and will probably enlarge the concern so as to
cover new ranches of business next year.
Mr. Fred X. Wright is about to build a new
Gothic cottage \ corner of Walnut and Waln-sts.,
main building 2p x 32 feet with wing. Mr. Clark
.Dimmick is the builder.
.)
THE PERILS \ I C a liV NEW llATs.—The
man who has many
streets
hats and wears them
alternately, walksOto \ .sreets unquestioned. But
woo to the Wight who has but two hats a year ;
for when he puts the old ono off and puts on the
new, how can ho escapo tho question —"Where
d'ye yet your new hat?" Bo \ ik - en of No. 1, Union
Block, has got us into a hit of`a scrape. Passing
by the store the other day ho coaxed us inside,
denuding us of a dilapitatod tile roplaoed it with
- a milk,whito felt worth ever so much more than
we can afford, and bade us gepart in peace. He
didn't even charge it on b6ok. Crditors will
take notice. 'We did not buy the hat, \ r its no
extravagance to wear it.., t Therefore no dins will
receive attention.
MANSFIELD.—The Fall term of the
State Normal School commences to-4y under
most encouraging auspices. Miss. IL P. Dar
lington, daughter of the noted botanist of this
State will fill the position of Preceptress. Miss.
Darlington is an eminent teacher, having had a
large and varied experience. Profs. Allen and
Verrill occupy their old positions and Prof. Hoyt
still presides ovr the Department of Music. We
learn that the over
building was nearly filled
last week and those intending to enter should
lose no time. This school has no superior, and
it is said, no equal, among Normal Schools. It
ought to be able to accommodate double its
present number of students. We hope the Legis
lature will appropriate enough money to put on
tha new Mansard roof.
DISTRESSING CASUALTY. --Saturday,
Aug. 29, will long be remembered in Wellsboro an
nals for a calamity which eloped the life histories of
two bright and beautiful children, plunging two
households into bitter sorrow, and overcasting
..the neighborhood with gloom. The formial re_
lation of the details of such sudden bereavements
is full of sharp thorns which wound tho ehr.on
ieler ; yet it is a duty and must be done.
At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon the quiet of
our village was rudely broken by a vague but
alarming rumor that two children, cousins
3Am WHITE, youngest daughter of lion. R. ( . 4
White, and HATTIE CONE, daughter of A. P:
Cone, esq., agedl2 years, respectively, had fall
en into the deep water of Dickinson':3 Mill pond ,
a mile below town, and were drowned. The . ru
mor proved too true ; and though kind and will.
ing hands, and sympathizing hearts, labored fur
hours to bring them . back to life, all of labor and
sympathy was too littlp, and the task was reluct
antly abandoned.
The facts aro us 'follows : Sadie and Battle
were of a party of four which was picnicing in
the woods near the pond. The former ventured
out upon a log as children will venture, and los
ing her balance fell into water beyond her depth.
Two of the older girls did not discover her dan
ger, but Hattie, her mate, at ouco ran to her res-
cue, but alas ! only to fall a victim to her hero
ism. The spectators, being children, and terribly
frightened, do not seem to know exactly what did
happen, but there is no doubt that the children
clasped each other and went down together.—
Mrs. Spencer living near, saw the trouble and
gave the alarm, but no men being near at the
moment much valuable time was lost. Mr. D. P.
Catlin happenede - to be going to the mill, and at
once ran to the spot and made all possible haste
to rescue thd bodies. So l much time was consum
ed in necessary preparati6n that life was doubt
less entirely extinct before the recovery was ef
fected. Dr. Shearer was early on the ground and
left no means of resuscitation untested, but all
in rain. Tho scene was harrowing in tho ex
treme, and we hope never to witness another.
Sadie and Hattie were favorites at home and
abroad. They were womanly girls, and occupied
a large space in the households to which their
lamina was light and their voices music. In
life they were attached to each other by more
than childish bonds, being seldom apart during
waking hours. So truly may t it be said of them ,
"T tley were united in their lives, and in death
they were not divided."
The funeral was attended from St. Paul's
Church at 3 o'clock of Monday, and by an extra
ordinary concourse of people•.
FINE IMPROVEMENT.— We sem e
months ago noted the fact of the purchase of the
Nichols property in this village, by Bennett
Eeq., of Middlebury; and some time later further
stated that Mr. Bennett was about to erreet a
dwelling on the site of the old building. The
dwelling has now become a fact, just ai it will be
an ornament to our - village when the finishing
touches shall have been put upon it.
The main building is 22X42 feet on the ground,
and the wing 28X31 feet. The first floor rooms
will be eleven feet in the clear, and the second
floor 10 feet t inches. In the angle thus
formed rises a. tbver ten feet square to the bight
of forty feet, and, overlooking the country for
miles around. The alto ison a table Borne 40 feet
above Main Street, thus giving a splendid outlook
from the first floor windows. Tho , building and
tower will make a prominent feature in the plot
of the village to all approaching from the east
ward: Tho finish of the dwelling is to bo very
neat and strong.. The upper story of the tc . 6srar
will have triple Windows arched after the Nor
man Style. The gable windows of the main
building 'will also be triple and arched. The
cornice is railroad style, - without brackets Or orria
ment of any kind, save mouldings. The bay
window of the ens} front is a beautiful piece of
workmanship. It has paneled pilasters with
pedestals and half balusters. The cornice has
sawed modillions in pairs, and the roof balustrade
has paneled pedestals, and rails with turned
balusters. On the south is tobe the eonservatori,"
with arched windows and columns. This will be
deck roofed, and the second floor windows open
upon this balcony. The other windows will have
balconies of iron. Tho main entrance will be
under a broad arch, and the door frame proper,
one of the finest pieces of woodwork one will see
in many a day, gives a doorway of 8 by 31 feet
exclusive of transom which will be glazed with
stained lass.
The building is stiffened with diagonal" and
cross-braces, and has a great deal -of timber in
it. There is a7l feet cellar under the main
building. •
Mr. A. G. Sturrock, of this village, is the
Master Builder. He is a student of the Builder's
art, and we would as soon entrust the work of
planning and executing a dwelling 'to him as
to any foreign builder. He has taste, exact
method, and great skill as a workman. .
ELRIAND ITEMS.—Ctihr correspond
ent "Anon," to whom wo aro much obltged'ii,nd
hope to hear from often, writes;
"Mossri. Fitzgerald Monroe aro building a
very extensive Sash and Door Factory on Buffalo
Street. It is all ready for the machinery, and is
expected to be running by the lst of October.—
T. S. Coates is also building ono upon the same
street, with his timber and lumber upon the
grounds.
"Meimrs. Leander Culver ,tc E. S. Culver are
building an extensive 'Hotel in ,our Borough, and
intend having it _completed before the County
Fair of the,3oth of Sept. Wo are also building a
large and commodious Presbyterian Church, upon
the ground whore the old ono was burned some
ten years ago. The move had long been contem
plated, and when Joel Parkhurst, gsq., came
forward and generously donated $2OOO, for that
-purpose, a sufficient bum was immediately raised,
'and the contract awarded! and we now expect to
have it ready for dedication by the Ist of October.
Our Fair Buildings , aro in process of construct
ion and will be completed in the course of ten
days.
We are also to have a graded school under the
control and supervision of C.C. Wald, who cornea
among us with the best of recommendation, as • a
scholar and successful t acher. It is an institu
tion that we have long ceded ,in our community,
and we hope to deriv much good therefrom.
The term commenced Ai g. 31st IS6B.
So much for our h me improvements, but
above and beyond all th so, we are looking for
ward to the not distan day, when the Iron
Horse shall come steaming along our fertile
valley, thereby giving us an impetus in the right
direction that we have so long needed.-
Gossip.—Thomas K. Beecher (we
hate to write it "Rev. T. K. 8.," just n's we _hate
to say "Mr. Washington"), has a snug corner in
the Elmira Advertiser. All in all you will not
find just such another man; in other wordi ho is
a "Beecher." Ho gets off many quaint things, has
an ear for sharp things and an eye for sharp
shooting. A big Convention of Sunday School
teachers lately met in Elmira, to which wont
many and various people. T. K. B. hints that
in sonic cases those is attendance made money in
going; as when a man can travel sixty miles for
$1.50 and get three days bed and board for
nothing, ho actually saves money. So ho advise's
an - arrangement with hotels and boarding houses
for a commutation price list for board and bed
"when Sunday School folks get up a mass meet
ing.", T. K. 8., hits an evil, and a growing 'one,
strait on the poll. It is this: Teachers and
preachers are classed with paupers and homeless,
landless, n;toneyler folk. Is there to be a meet
ing or convention of' tonahorw, ntrnit,noy on appeal
to popular - charity is made, and every door is ex
pected to fly open. So when preachers convene l ,
So when the pioneers of any new enterprise of a
I mprfil, religious, or scientific nature convene.
And while it is not easy to bestow too much favor
upon the men and women who educate and
mould the race, it i does not follow that free bed
and board is necessarily kindness or favor. Wo
'vould favor T. K. B's. plan. But prior to that
we propose to raise the salaries of Preachers and
TbaChers, so that they can afford to travel and
feed, independent of a grudging hospitality.
Boughten bread, like boughten wit, always is
cheap est and best.
—Very .cheeifully do we oblige a friend and
correspondent who writes.
"Will you print this little hymn in your Gossip
Column for the benefit of children? I learned it
from my teacher's lips thirty years ago, and
never saw it in print. Perhaps comp good
mother will commit it and teach it to such of her
little ones as cannot yet read:
I'm not too young for God to ecc;
Ho knows my name, and nature, too,
And all the day he looks at me
And sees my actions through and through
Ho listens to tho words I speak.
And knows the thought I have within ;
And whether I'm at work or play
Ho's sure to sco me if I sin.
Then why should children tell n '
Or curse, or swear, or steal, or tight,
When they remember God is nigh,
And always has them in his sight?
Wheneer I wish to do amiss. -
However pleasant that may be
always try to think of this
Pnt not too ynnnyfor God to see.
—Another correspondent, to whom we are
obliged for many valuable suggestions, sends us
a few Franklinisms, to wit
"Dr. Franklin said that in a i l accting of doc
tors, when the question was asked whether
doctors had done more good or harm, Sir John
Pringle enquired whether old ICO7/101 were: in
cluded; as, if they were; he would say that
doctors had done more good.
"On another occasion the Doctor advise'd
quaker, who ecimplainckt that his Beer-cask was
tapped, to put a Cask of old lifadoira by the side
of it. 4,
"Again, the Doctor says, that, at the great as
sembling, ho could fancy that the different sects
would have to be content, each with its own
salvation, without the happiness, in addition, of
having the others damned."
CLOSED.—The Office of the 11. S. Ex
press in this village has been taken up by the
Company for the reason that such an establish
ment does nt,t. pay._ Both Mr. Young, the
gentlemanly agent, and Mr. Ross, rho ;always
obliging Express man, deserve well of the public
for their fidelity. Ilthafter all express gomls
not ordered delivered othsrivise, will •be sent
from Tioga by the Stage.
• THE COUNTY FAIR.—A press of mat
ter last week crowded out a notice of the Pair of
the Agricultural Society, fixed for Wednesday,
Sept. 30, and Thursday, Oct. I, at Elkland. We
regard the'chango of locations as the entering
wedge which is to remove the clistibilitics under
which the Society has labored, and which threat
ened to render its exhibitions local in spite of -"till.
eiToo is contrau ise. Tioga county is, destined to
become one of the richest counties in the State,
and from its grazing excellence mainly. Its soil
produces ,griisscs which are of o the best flavor,
perennial, and abundant. The red shale ridges
produce wheat and censer grains in aliubdanee,
and its rich intorvales fairly gioan with corn and
grain. But the topography of the county is un
favorableto a.general agricultural Exhibition. The
high ridge which divides the waters of Crooked
and Pine Creeks from the Cownnesciuois a natilial
barrier to such an enterprise. Again, the high
ridge which separates the Tioga and Pine Creek
waters is another barrier. It is almost impossible
for Cotranesque farmers to drive stock to Wells
boro without risk. Delmar and Charleston
cannot driv . e stoek . to the Cowanesque with - ?com
fort. Yet both can take horses and young cattle
to either place, as well as samples of- crops, ; anti

Important Facts.
tNCE 'Salutifer is now being used in thous
° ands of families the following facts are
im
portant to be known.—
FlRST—Though it is the most powerful of all
popular remedies, yet it is so cOmponnded, as- to
he sofa and harmless. It is of such a nature that
it may be handled and used by children, and
_persons who are ignorant of Medicines.
SECOND—It is found that Salutifer will relieve
severe pain in any part of-the body sooner than
any other; application.
Tu~nn- It is
. important that the bottle be well
corked, if left open only a few minutes it loses
strength.
Foustrn—This useful remedy can be obtained
rom almost every dealer in medicines.
