Your correspondent, in company with
"Charley," paid a vieit to Elmira ("The Hub")
Fimirclay last. returning Monday evening; and
the following are among the things we saw:
Fist thins after reaching the Erie Depot, saw a
Velecipede,•that takes the romance entirely out
of the " Deacon's one horse shay! Didn't take
one, choosing rather to walk down town, after
kl‘ving our aulographs at the American House.
I) N.ppeinto a printing establishment, where we
found 3 r. 0. S. Webster, formerly of Wellsboro,
;rho showed us another Velocipede, (carrying
three editors,) that beat the ether one we saw
all to nothing. The hubs were labeled "Elmira" i
and "Advertiser ". ( Metropolitanism and Jour
nalism.) The wheels were more than 190 miles
to diameter with numerous spokes and felines,
labeled, and among them we saw .IkU
WellabOrp, and Tail .Tubas COOTir Aotr&riu4-..
We don't thirik yisu can keep •right'silte up with-
out those spokes nd felloes,, Mr. Velocipede.
• Tho Studio of IN r. Waters, the well known
Artist is on the
~ hird 'doors of the Advertiser
,building. No has vier jitintings not sold, lately
` finished:gone, a view of Lake George, which is
very pretty, and an—Ootober view in Vermont.
Mt. Mansfield in the — distanee t _whiolt is very
bountiful, and not less artistio than - boautiful.
We visited Conkey's Studio, and found the
"Knight of (the Chisel," as courteous as though
thousands had not laid a tax upon his time and
patience before - us: ',no ' kg's /AMY - 1160 - tli Wg fi t i

I hope no ono will accuse your Mansfield, corm,-

• GosslP.Nothing 'puzzles
one as the freaks of conscience. We have known
a Man whose conscience revelled at the mention
of a business matter on Sunday, yet who counted
it entirely legitimate to take ten dollars out of a;
neighbor on a horse trade Monday morning.
Another would argue • for h'oure upon the ne
cessity of a triune Godhead to the smooth work.
ing of the Christian system, yet found It entirely .
proper to deliver groceries at short weight. An
other beheld the whole duty of man in a strict
attendance upon preaching, yet on, all 'occasions
struggled to reduce the salary of his minister.
Still
Still another would conntit heresy, in a- man to
refuse allegiance to the thirty-nine Articles, yet
denied that it was 'al ChristitirCduti to feed a
hungry lamb whose ear marks shevred,it to belong
to a different - flock. It is not necessary to sup
pose that any of these men were hypocrites by
intention. Each claimed to obey conscience, and,
.for aught we - know, did so :obey. , We know a
falls woman (picius in intention,. at all events)
who never missed church when able to go out;
Who seemed to eNcy service and sermon genu
inely ; and who ntiver omitted an opportunity to
backbite the sister saints when out of the church
edifice. So we suppoie that Conscience may 'be
like unto a fence, with hero and there a panel
gone. The perfect panels represent the formal
and technical peculiarities of thdreligion which
such people profess. The low panels represent
the apparent loo'etmees with whichreligions tlieOry
is reduced to practice; and the missing punch',
the gape, constitute the byways through' ivhicia
glaring inconsistencies creep into -and out of
every_life. For it is useless to deny the faot that
practice never approaohee profeesiony • where the
latter - As ostentatiously paraded.
—We conclude that religions beliefs -must' be
tested as all other beliefs and rifles of faith - are
tested. Though good. works, undertaken EOl
flshly i and fOr a deliberate purpose: not lotinfe
'nancod by the highe . sCioneolenee, merit ac rnieo
and bless not the doer, yet it is only •by their
vorlts'that men and women can rightly be meas
ured. Profession is good when works
,denote
poisession., However closely apart may complY ,
with the commands of the written law, if he stop
there, satisfied, ho merits nothing:: It is for the
obvious interest of all to comply in so' much; it
is not so obviously forctheinterest of uteri and
women to obey the highest law of being. It has
been well Said that little blood has been shed .
about essentials in ieligious faith. Riifficr, the
fierce quarrels {like that :which arose: 'between .
the German atid Swiss Reformers), which 'Mark the'
religious history of mankind, have commonly
centered about some proposition, the t t l'ittli ur
error of which mattered ;little to - true ireligious. ,
progress. We hope rho world is getting . wiser'
and though it is not desirable that ant perfcilf
coalition shall he effected between the numerous
churches militant, it does seem probable thatthe,
"agreement to disagree" may be entered into'
within the lifetiine of sonic, children
-now living..
In very truth - tho Protestant world differs , not

—Tho best band to .write is which is

' For example, —if a penman makes all his his' ,

A Biiii - DPEOCEEDING.—A rdo,lTeSpon
dent sends us the following statement of a sin
gular outrage in Deerfield
"A bold and daring outrage was committed at
Deerfield Corners, Vriday night, 19th ult. Tho
circumstances of tho case are as follows t
"A few months ago Ira Wagoner sold his
Hotel at Deerfield to a Mr. Cass, of Bradford
county, and gave him possession. Shortly after=
wards he became satisfied (whether justly. or not)
that he had made a bad bargain and that be
would receive very little compensation for his
property; or in other words", shat Oils was a
sharper and ho (Wagoner) was "501,i."
" Frequent and severe have since been t o his le
gal prosecutions that Cass has had to en unter,
with but little sympathy from the community. '
"On Friday night at about ten o'clock sumo
ten or fifteon "men of muscle," disguised nab
masks, entered Cass's Tavern, secured Cass and
his bartender, leading them into - the :street, in-:
flicted severe injuries upon them, proceeded -
to clear the premises of all personal property
with snore celerity than care, installing, Wagoner
master of the situation; piling his goods inside
id but little less confusion than thoso which they
had so summarily ejected. •
" There is said V. - beim unusually large humber
of reliable witnesses who identified the prdminent
parties in this affair (a few of whom were not
disguised) at the time.
" Tho following nre the names of those who have
been arrested, all of whom waived exan}ination
and were held to bail in ono thousand-dollars
each to answer to the charge of Riot and , forcible
entry and detainer, and meanwhile to heep- the
peace: Arch Carpenter, Is4ac f,Bakiir;)lisdob
Vail, Ira Wagoner, Eugene"lorry, and IV: P.
Knox. Some have absented thonstives.
" This affray reverses tho poSitions of the par
ties in the feelings of the community, as Cass is
now considered the injured man instead of Wag
oner.
" The end is not yet, although this may be the
beginning of the end; but ,to minds unused to
this kind of double warfare the sitnation be
comes more complex at every move.
P. S. The latest intelligence • is that "All is
quiet on the Cawanesquc." t,
TRoY.—This smart village is about to
arise from its ashes regenerate and knitilifut, as
tufty he inferred from the followie...; items from
the G‘tzette:
" We understand that Pomeroy 1:1,e3 , are go
ing to put up a fine brick block in pblee of their
building burned on Canton Street.
"The ruins of the Troy flotu-e ,rre being
cleared away preparatory to the relid , ling, of the
hotel with brick. Success to tho - .Tol house.
"L. Putnam, our livery man hod al ittle Wools
mare stolen on Thursday morning. A fetioir
stopping at i the Stevens Rouse got the horse and
buggy to go to Towanda, but has not been vc"91.1
since. Putnam has gone ilf.SeaT4 of 60 . itort4e.
" There is a rumor afloat thatono of IiIQ citizens
of this Boro., had his bed-room entered the other
night by a burglar; his sato key stolen and his
safe opened and $7OO in money taken from it.
No name is given.
"V. M. Long purchased the American" Hotel
in Elmira the other day, intending to establish
himself them-, but the peculiarly disadvantageous
arrangement of the building' and some minor.
matters caused him to relinquish the project and ,
return to Troy. We could hardly snare the judge
