WEI I LBBOBO 5 PENN•A: WEDNESDAY, MAY 19, 1869 A sensation despatch about an UM.- ABC° between England, France, and Spain, against the United Stat4s, was lately telegraphed by Atlantic Cable. Such an alliance would involve a counter alliance between the United States, Russia, and Prussia. We con clude that Prussia and Russia can take care of France and lf,igiand, and this country can take care of Spain. The Elmira Advertiser has a Wells boro Correspondent who promises to make an interesting . column for that paper every week. The premise is con tained in the first two letters published. Whoever he may be he is up to snuff, racy and golisipy and possesses the rare accomplishment of telling a good story in good style, and ,in the right place. The .Advert•iser an admirable paper, apart from its local news, and deserves a generous patronage for its indefatiga ble enterprise. ,1 We venture an opinion, for which we charge nothing, that the efforts of cor rupt politicians to defeat the renomina tion of Gov. Geary will come to grief. If it is not now understood that Penn sylvania politics cannot hereafter be controlled for the benefit of private ambitions, thetooner this understand ing is made plain to the parties concern ed - the better for all. The Republican masses demand the renomination of Gov. Geary. He has administered the affihirs of the'Commonwealth in the in terest of the Masses, and in spite of the efforts of nominal Republicans to em barrass him at every step. Under his Administration the old swarm of gad flies has failed to fasten upon and de plete the treasury where he could pre vent such a calamity. He is a man of honor, of superior 'executive ability, and devoted to the perpetuation of the principles, rather than the emptyforms of a free and economical government. Washington would go to the boy wows in the absence of a sensation. Its latest excitement relates to the visit of Gen. Lee to President Grant. The wise fools of that cobweb city declare that Lee was sunkoned by Grant as an ad viser about Virginia. AVe know no reason why Grant should not invite Lee to emit him, nor why ho should not ask of Lee any questions he pleased. But the truth is said to be that Lee was on a visit to Baltimore, and called upon the President on his return. One news paper man said that Grant and Lee did not talk much about the surrender at Appomattox. Of course not. j Any fool could have guessed wi much. Brave men do not talk about their battles or fracases. T hat is for joss and feathers to do. •We see nothing sensational in Lee's calling at the White House. j . . on Monday, May 10, 1809, at, 2:47 o'clock, I'. 1\1•, titer: was a happening 2400 miles west from New Yiirk which cannot be dismissed with a paragraph. This Was the laying of tl4) last rail, and driving of the last spike complet ing the Pacific Railway, constituting SEVENTEEN "HUNDIt,ED AND ISEV ENTV SIX MILES of continuous rail, and weaving the oceans together with a warp of iron.. It will be `retnembered and chroni cled as the third-:of three greatest events of the century—the first being the abolition of chattel Slavery, the second the successful layingiof the At lantic cable. The rails were joined at c a 'point 1086 miles west of the Missouri river, and 600 miles east of 'Sacramento' City. The United ‘ States can now claim the longest railway on the globe. A man may now take cars at Jersey City and steam across the continent te San Fran- f ciseo. Thus, what five years ago waS denounced in certain quarters as im possible, becomes a thing done. We shall not pause to carp at the means employed to accomplish this great work. Admit that the munifi cence of the Government made it pos sible and assured its early success ; ad mit that rogues have enrichell them selves out of the liberal subsidies grant ed by Congress r 4refuse to admit that the end ever justified the means, as we certainly now and ever must do,—still, the value of this iron Way across the continent cannot be overrated ; nor can it be' correctly estimated by this gener ation. Isolation is but another name for weakness. While the way to our Pa cific States was slow and painful across our own domain ; dangerous and long " ; risky to our own there by the absenee of induce ment to separate fron► the Central States. That inducement—the vision of the future of au empire looking out across a wide, deep, amiable sea, t the Ladies, and besought toaceept the enor mous trade of Asia—could not have lo.en long wanting. 1 1 The Pacific Railway has changed all that. Great States, only six days apart by rapid ; comfortable, and safe commu nication, become identified in interest, and neighbors in fact. Thus, the Pa cific Railroad not only physically rivets the Republic, together, but morally, po litically, and socially also. • The San Frauseiscan may take a com fortable car on- Monday morning and take his dinner iii New York the Mon day following, having seen more of the round globe meantime than any man' heretofore has seen in six months.

Church t es and school houses will replace the brothels and gaming-houses of the wild mining regions of Colorado, Montana, and Ne vada. This great iron way will extend Iron arms right, and left, like a Proteus,. and feeling the riches and products of the outlying seti l letnents, will contract, and bring back laden trains to the Grand Trunk., Welcome, Age of Iron ! Better than all the ages which have gone before.— Freighted with greater riches than the Age of Gold ! The magnetism of this age revives the dead. Enterprise, the parent of human pro- gresg, brings to its td bones of iron and sinews of steel x and forges the in terests of the Republic in one solid mass. It \ is well to live in such an !age, to feel its pulses bound, and to niarl; how man, the creature, by the sheer force of intelligence,, makes all, forces subject to his will. In the number of this paper dated March 21, was published the Act, for the prevention of cruelty to animals in the Commonwealth. This Act was passed at the late sesSion of the Legis lature, and ranks high among wise, and beneflcient enactments. Briefly, it Prohibits and provides fin• the punish ment of— 1. Bull, bear, dog, and cock fighting. Penalty to principals and abetters, a line of not less than $lO nor more than $2O, for first offeupe ; one-half to the prosecutor and the balance to the coun ty treasury, the oqnder to stand com mitted till the tine be paid. The carrykpg, or causing. to be carried, in any vehicle, in an inhuman manlier, itny \ creature. Penalty, all costs of taking, the vehicle and crea tures into custody and caring for the latter. 3. The abandoning of any sick, maimed, or disabled ' , creature to die in any public plade. This is a misdemean or, and all costs of removing the car case are to be collected out of thebtfen der in the usual manner. 4. Constables and policemen; and agents of the State Society for the pre vention of cruelty to animals, are re quired to cause all offenders finder Act to be arrested and prosecuted to eon viegon upon sufficient evidence. This law can be made very powerful in the amelioration of the condition of brutes. But the agents for its enforce ment must be men who are proof against the abuse ofsnch people as are many de grees below the level of the beasts of the fields. Henry Bergh, of New York, President of the Society for the preven tion of cruelty to animals in that city, has fought a.wiunilig battle forth° brute creation, and is hated by the two-legged brutes accordingly. We see no reason why there should not be a branch So ciety in every village of Tioga. County. We notice that a new stir is getting up about the appointment of a Marshal for the Eastern District of the State. Oeu. Ely was appointed some time ago, much to the dissatisfaction of the friends of Mr. Hiestand, of Lancaster. Gen'. Ely having died, Grant has appointed to fill the vacancy, of Mr. Hiestaud, but somebody else. -1 , e make no doubt ! that the President is ight; but if he is not he will try agai, ; and yet again, until the right man shall be found. This scramble for place is getting worse and worse. It almost equals the incoming of- Johnson's second year, when the Copperheads ruhsed to the fore, half-famished by their four years. forced abstinence from place. We have the utmost confidence in Gen. Grant's motives. He has made some mistakes, they say. • Well--and as we are not a •candidate for his favor we may say it without flattery perhaps—he has made some thousands fewer blunders than such first-class statesmen as Buchanan make in the same length of time. We expect his Administration to be, at its .• of the century. Our exhortation to the President is—do what you think best for the people and let the placemen go to the devil.

By this transfer Farmington loses one of its best citizens, the church an earnest and consistent ehristian and our society an useful and honored member. The.laßt. sensation in Farmington is a ghos story. 11 was seen about dark one Sunday night, going across Mr, Ball's meadow froth the direc tion dthe graveyard. As tho young ►uan who saw it. first attempted to approach it it fled, and hid hetind a stone-boap. lie followed still fur ther, when it ran across the hold towards the road, , but there happened to be some boys in the road, so it turned and ran off in the direction of its noctural abode. As it has'nt been seen since, I presume it has learned a lesson and hereafter will walk in the daylight as all good spirits do.
