"John WI Adams, Esq., has purchased a ve

they can come to time. Drink to the Bar and the

More walks were swept after the snow of the

winter.
A TEALCHpR asks : "Why should
there be such a diversity of text books in our
schools? It ie st-grdat bother."
Each a diversity ought not to exist. In this
Normeil Dietriof there should bo no diversity.
Eusquehana and-Bradford oountfes how tolerate
but One series—" Tho 'Union Series"—of text
books, and wo suppose that half of 'the schools
in Tioga use tho . same series. What is wanted
now, is a concerted action of the Directors,
bringing Tioge, county into conformity with 'the
mail named.
• THE DAIRY.—A J.. Webster, Esq., of
Mansfield sends us the following :
"Raving noticed several items in your journal

MA N.. 9 PIEL D.—ANNIVERSARIES. —
Wednesday evening, 17th lust , the Good Tem
plays of Mansfield held their 3d anniversary; an
as that auspicious day chanced to be the birth
day of the Star of Hope Society , the orgnnizationts
united)in the celebration. The Star of Hope Sol
ciety, af which often mention has been made i
these columns, attained the fulness of its tirs 4 t
year of exist nee on'that evening. It is a Sol ,
of boys and iris, numbering about 140 member.,
pledged to abstinence from profane anti obscone
1
laaguae, lilittors and tobacco. The badge i f
the Society i ,a white star with a. red center, u -
on a blue background, and is very neat. Tb s
Eceiety has done a good work for Manetleld, pr -
paring the ground for a largo growth of praetic I
Christianity. Its founder is Mrs, Lyman Ile_ -
nolds, to whom the idea seems first to have o -
curred, but many good men and women have so -
rained and strengthened her hands. Mrs. Re -
nolds and her co-workers need not monuments .f
marble to commemorate their labors. Every be,
zacedlrom evil courses by this Society will co i -
stitate a bright star in the crown of their &sex • -
ing. ,
Prof. Streit read, on interesting history of t 0
Society from the day, of its organization. 0. .
,i..
Flliott, Esq., read nit equally graphic history f
the New gopc Lodge of Good Tempters, bearin
witness to the energy and fortitude of _the Lod 0
under adverse circumstances. These readings
were followed by short addresses upon the se -
jec tof ,temperance reform, the whole enliven 4d
and leavened b'y music by the Gice Clubs of t o
Societies, not only selected with fine taste, Itt
ej ),
executed '.with skill. The Church was dens y
crowded, the members of the Societies in th it
beautiful regalia constituting a marked ft; •
turn of tho audience. A deep earnebtness per R
ded the assembly, arguing well for the cause
is I
order and progress in AlausGeld. Altogether le
occasion is marked on our tablets as one of It(
most agreeable in our experience. The ?cop] o.
Mansfield, assembled on such an oreasion, al•
ways inspire the stranger pith enthusiasm, e
..a use they are themselves in earned
Thurilay morning, accompanied by Prof. AI ei
of the N'orinal School, we visited the School foi
Suidiers',Orphans. We arrived just as a (roof o:
r9sy, laughing girls and buys were tiling into In
rceitlliull lourns from the breulifft•t room. II rt
vve found Mrs. Etz, the matron, Mr. V. R. Pr tt
the principal, and his misoeiafe tea hers, a l ne
rtiES Simpson, who presides over. q rather, b
ti.' Srst Lady of the Wardrobe. We sited In

r."'lla, with good ventilation, and coy beds.—
l' , . ugh but little after 7 o'clock - the rooms w re
I.Lie.red• for another night, and everything in
I'l I '. Thence we went to the ,dining ball, wh ch
' is , arge and 6profortable, and shovecl no Inc in
it: appointments. In a few minutes wo ante ed
the School room and saw the orderly z entraric of
- 11 '4 boys and girls preparatory to chapel e. cr
-i,:-. The room is nicely futnished\mid ell
isaimed. Here wo lisAcned to the W ngin of
"'~oral beautiful hymns in which the wi ole
IcLool joined, vtith harmony and effect which ew
quire of adults are equal to. As wo listened to the

Nothing afforded us so n4ich satisfaction as
t .o evident, , but not too demonstrative love of the
jidren for Prof. Allen: Eviitry eye brightened
she entered, with a kind word for ono and a
at on the head for another, and a smile for all.
his tells the story, just as the joyous, rosy fades,
tells the story of-care for their health. ,In Mrs.
Etz, ono of the noblest of women, these l hundred
hildren recognize a more that}' flietld. The
•ehool is a succe”, nod owes its existence in
I jOgn. county to the energy of Prof. Allen, who
ought its way when none beside him could see a
opo of its success, and through whose economy
be State will finally receive back into its coffers
very dollar it required to establish it. Tho pie
uro of that school room is still present in visual
netno'ry. Never, before, have we seen so many
lean, rosy faces in a school room.
REVIVAL.--A marked revival of re
igions interest has been in progress in the Young
chool House neighborhood, Charleston, during
he last two weeks, under the labors of Rev.' A.
. Hammon. Upward of 50 persons have pi°.
fessed conversion, sixteen havo been baptised,
and many go forward.' Probably no'greater or
Moro promising change over took place in a
ncighbwhood than may be observed in that M
inded to. The interest' manifestedby young and
old is wonderful. Let the good wok go on.
GOSSIP,—Thc classification of man
under two general divisions—civilized and say
age—ls not just. There aro tw.o sorts of men in
civilized life—permanent and transient. The
latter class constitute the brakes upon the wheels
of progress, the chain and ball punishment al
lotted to the former class, the marplots of the
world. You may see ono , of the transient class
laboring for a lifetime to gond upon the space
described by the circumference of an old fashitined
penny, blissfully unaware of the fact thati the
world has moved. on. and left him meanwhile.
You shall employ ono to chop cord-wood ttitl
amuse yourself, if you can keep__ your temper,io
watohing his, movements. He may tackle a ma-.
plo and fell it; and proceed to cut and split; tho
trunk, into wood, Tho moment he sttilses a
knurl, and fails to split off a slab at the first blow,
he abandons the maple and proceeds to fell a
beech. Ho pegs away at the beech until he
comes to tho limbs,"whore the knots prevent free
cleavage, and then looks ul3 a chestnut, and - fells
that. Let such a man alone, and ho will fill your;
wood lot with half cut trots, - and leave you back
logs enough to
- keep an old time B.foot kitchen"
fire-place hot for 'half a year. Employ Ettch
man to build you a house,
, nd lot him alone, and.
you may realize an endowm policy in any
Lifo Insurance Company beforo yo can sleep
under your own roof. Ho will work for ypu
while the tit is on, and the next yon know of him
he will ba on an odd job for some : man .who can
givo himthot moro than a day's work. This
comes of his transientness. Ho must halo
change. lie -will not finish any fob withoiti
dropping his tools a dozen times an hour and
chasing hero and there, like a bull-with a bullet
in his skull. You have seen men of this stamp
swooping about like spariow" hawks, apparently
full of business. But it would puzzle a Philadel
phia lawyer to toll what they accomplished in a
day. Such mon seem to be entirely satisfied
with a certain amount of action and noise. Set.
one to shingle a roof, and if he makes so many
hammer strokes per day, or so many motions, be
imagines himself to be a business man of thc . first
water. Set him to carry a bud, and ho win - esti
'mate himself by the number of trips ho makes
from the mortar bed to the top of the wall,-und
not by the quantity of mortar he has carried- up.
As an employer he would value men according to
the number of motions they could make in a min
ute, or by the loudnescof the grunts they emitted
in lifting fifty pounds. •
—Now, healthy processes are ever Flow. Sane
men work away all lay, quiet, deliberate,. anob
trusive. When night comes you are surprised to
find that these quiet fellows have done two day's
work in ono. Others, of tho transient order;
blow and strike, and clamor and clatter, and.pull
off their coats with an air of tearing created things
to tatters; and when night comes they have done
nothing l a t all. Such men do not the work of the
world. The permanent class do that, you know.
The transient class are nothing but steam whis
tles, capable of a heap of noise, bat aiding in
nowise to move the machinery of the worn.
—Bully for "John 8., who comes at us thus: -.-
"Accidental"
" I thank you for your kind offer of "holding
the sponge" but I am not asking ter office; and
if I were, should not like the signal of defeat to
be in your hands, knowing how reluctant you
would be to use it. - No, Sir; when my follow
oithens want my services they will _say so, 'and
they will not put me to the trouble of traveling
over the county to solicit the vote of the delegates
in my own favor. I would rather out cord wood
at 25 cents a cord, than comply with the present
custom (which would bq morn honored in its
breach than its observausio). Your eoluians are
open for any citizens toexpress their wants and
wishes, and youiadvertising columns for any,
candidate to mako himself known, if he is worth
knowing." - ,
SULLIVAN.—In reading an account of
the history of Sulliitan township, pnblished in
your columns some time sineo,..l -noticed that
several of the statements therein were incorrect.
If you will allow me, -I 'will rectify these mis
takes, and add such other_ instance=, ns I shall
deem interesting. • •
- I came into Sullivan township in 1807. I liras
at that time twenty years of ago. I_ hove ever
sincelivea in, or near, that place.
At the time I went there, it contained only . six
families, as follows: Allen Lane, Ensign Mitch•
ell, Oliver Jennings, Isaad Westeott, Abraham
West and Samuel Reynolds.
Allen Lane was tho first - Settler and built the
first frame house; .
Dr. Guernsey was the first physician that ever
practiced there, instead of Dr. Parkhurst, as
before stated.
John Gray was the first merchant, instead of
John Fox.
The first school house was constructed in 1808.
A young lady taught the ensuing summer, and
I taught the following winter, for the sum of
$B,OO. per. month,
Our nearest gristmill was situated iu Troy,
where "tong's Flouring ➢Sill" new stands and
that was of no superior kind. for it 'was capable
of grinding nothing but corn. I
Starvation must certainly have ensued, had it
not been for the immense numbers of
,speckled
trout that swarmed our streams,' and the deer,
that abounded in the forests. Danger surrounded
us on all sides, In the shape of boasts, but
with strong arms and *willingOlearts, we were
every ready, to defend ourselves, and each other,
from all encroachments made by them.'
None but those who hl.vo passed through sim
ilar scenes, can know the anxiety, the'isuffering
and hardships, that we, as pioneers endured.
The inhabitants were as one fatally, and such
was the sympathy they expressed, that each re
joiced at another's joy nnd. grieved, at another's
EOTIOW. No foolish pride, or envious , feelings
swelled the bosoms of my rude, but generous
neighbors.
, lam the only one among those ' pioneers, who
is now living„ii,nd I feel that 16hali soon
numbered with them; but I sLeud ready to go
whenever my Maher shall call me, hoping that I
may carry 'home to llirn the sheaves he tent me
to gather. GARDNER SEAMAN.
