A correspondent writes : INTERES
TING DISCOVERY.-" Andreiv Sherwood, Esq., of
Mansfield, recently discovered some ieurarhable
fossils in tho rooks, two miles below Illossburg.—
They are the bones, scales, and teeth of several
varieties of fish, the largest of -which ho calls
Ilolopesitis— which was about live feet in
length. The scales, which ho has in his possess
ion, are two inches in diameter, and some of the
teeth aro an inch in length. These strange fish
es the Devonian Age, and ham the
position in which they were
_found, nust have
lived millions bf years ago. This is pot the only
iiscovery -of interest which Mr. Sherwood has
made, as tits large museum abundantly testifies."
TILE INSTITUTE.—TiIe Teaclier4' in
nitute of Tioga • County will meet at Tioga on
'z'ith inst., and continue in session until
today 'mon following. Among the notables to
to present aro Prof. Sanders, author of Sanders's
Ferie4 of Readers, &c., Profs. Jones, of Erie,
Blakeslee, of Wellsville, N. Y., Verrill, of the
Ngriaatir and Allen, of Potter county.—
Prof. Wickersham is expected to bo present a
portion of the time. The value of Institutes
may ba inealcultt.ble, if well sustained, or noili
ta4, if abandoned, as has been so long thii pi:ne
ws here. Prttf. Horton, our Superintendent,
kl:ei hold of his work with an energy which
proe good results. .ifis heart is in the work,
- 1H head IS equal to it, nod his health robust.—
The citizens of Tioia have proffered free board
to lady teachers, and hoard at $4 per week to
maps. Of course this will result in an excess of
o frniales over males; but every teacher may TT
oolliber that have to given good reason
uheent, at the Fall the
Inends of education attend .this institute and
wllse it a grand success.
Tim FAIR !-If we have not yet allll
- a to the eolMnT talc Show and Fair of the
r ‘tinty Agripult raL ociety it has not been from
sty lack of intermit in its (Neel. Tioga county
he: much coal, icon and lumber, mainly untie
itt4arms constitute, or will, when
developed, tive•sisths of the wealth of the coun•
'Y. The soil is strong, and the natural wear
eiwn of the face of the comity ii a sternly pro
05S of manuring. Our rocks me a mass of or
ganic remains and an inexhaustible fund of fer
tility. Our pastures are carpeted with sweet and
lemmata grasses, well. watered, and easy of no
c?..•.s. A yearly meeting to compare notes cannot
I,at result in great good to fitrmel.s. Every man
way learn something of his neighbor—if not of
eis neighbor, then of somebody xi low remote. If
viory populoui school district would establish a
harmers' Club, to meet fortnightly and discuss
agriculture, and semi-annually to send delegates
to a County Convention, the rate of progress
would be wonderful. Vife 'lmre urged this plan
ior years, but men aro slow to advaace, tied all
ittilitfecent to the appliances of growth.
llowever in thO absenco of such clubs, nothing
better suggests itself than the County Fair. It;
cannot be a success unless the farmers make it so.
its directly resulting good will be to them, and
ita\identally to every man, woman, and child in
ice county: Bring Your best stocu, produce, and
fabrics, nnd.do not forget to infohn the Com.

Gossir.—Sylvanus Stopple, was far
and tide known as n man of wax. Not that
'Yirantis was composed of that amber-tinted,
0 4esive substance which shpernalcpris pee to wax
theic thread and fasten annoying boy-bores to
tbeo chairs, but a man of Sudb_ pliability and
friability, so impressionable, in short, that he
tarried and kept the name froin boyhood to a
I.ery green old. ago. As a boy his sayings became
!trick for laughter among boys, It tad texts for pa
rents t preach sermons to boys who threatened
to I:cedar:nobodies. SylvannsStopple was sent
to school at a tender age." But tho youthful
SArantrs was always the last boy in. This tar.
4r0v,0 from yr/ciliation which ITIIS as
:am oat
, ural to him as breath. Vor expla : t'Sylva
nlo:rn, my boy," Mrs. Stopple would say, "it is
time you set off. for school. Take your hat and
tiPPet, and your dinner , besket, and go at once, ,
or yO4 will be late." "But, mammy," Sylvrinus
'could !clay, t‘shail .1 wear my hat, or my cop ?"
' .V " l ar hat, sonny{ Mrs. Stopple would say.—
' Yes mammy, but clutrt you think I look bet
in cap?" my con, 1 think perhaps
3GO do leA better in a cad, but got ready for
c•lik.ol now." Yes, mammy, but I think I will
`` e3 l ,ll ly cap." So Sylvanus would put on his
cap and start tilr the'qutor floor. "I say mammy,"
returning, "I think I'll wear •r}y hat." "Very
' 4Ol , my son." Then Sylvanus would put on his
Gat and approach the 499 r. "MomMr," I say,
rfll "Yes ? "I'm going,
mitmmy, I'm going:" "Yes, son—go along." -
"But I say, , - mammy, perhcipsjl had bettor wear
my cap." "Vorry well sonny."' So, after-half
an-hour of vacilltding between the gate and the
kitchen stove, Sylianuswould.got off to school in
the morning. Thus Sylvanus grew-up to the big
ness and years of a luau, never knowing his own
mind. Ile was a farmer and his experience was
painful. Raving ten acres to plow and plant) he
was at a dead loss to know which field to put - in
corn and which in potatoes. , Along eanio Smith,
a neighbor. And says be, "Stopple,` - plant the
upper piece to corn. "So I will," .said Stopple,.
Along came Jones. another neighbor.. And' says',
Itc, "Stopple, plant the upper piece to potatoes."i
"So I will," stall the pliant' Stopple: Along
came Brown; and says he, "Stopple, sow tho'
upper field •to oats." -"Well, I thi n k I
said the clever Stopple. Along caul° Roberts, a
neighbor ; and says he, "Stopple, if you are wise
you will let the upper field lie fallow." "Well, I
think that is the wisest," said Stopple, Thus W
. - •
fell out that Stopple was so ,engaged in taking,
impressions of every man who came along, that tho
season passoj away, and he plewed and planted
not un acre. Finally, when Sylvanus Stopple
thought to venture upon the sea - of matrimony,
ho had a terrible experience. "Sue Colo is the
girl for you, Sylvanus," said aunt Becky. "Yes,"
replied Stopple, "I think I'll take her.'' "You
don't think of marrythg Sue Coles, Sylvanus, do
you ?" asked damn Jones.
_"011, no, by no
means !" said Sylvanus. "Jorusha Sipes is a
splendid girl, and will make you a nico
Sylvanus,' said aunt Nancy. "Yes—l think I'll
marry her," said the man of wax. "Don't throw
yourself away upon 'Rustle Sipes, Sylvamis h"
said Judy Smith. '"Oh, no, by no Means," said
Syh antis. So, between all these advisors, Syl
vrnus Stopple remained an old bachelor all his
days. But the end eamo at last—as it always
Joey. - Sylvanus had two horses: He delighted
to ride them when ho went to town. But, olio
morn\ing, when he had business in town; he could
not Or the life of him decide whether he would
ride the roan or the gray, lle brought both out
and hitched them at a post. Ho saddled roan.
He :unsaddled roan and addled gray. He un
saddled grity and saddled roan. Ile mounted
roan. He dismounted, saddled, and mounted
gray. llow long this might have gone on no
man can say had not a third party appeared
upon the scene. This was no other than his
neighbor Jones's Jackass. "Heaven be, praised !"
said Sylvanus; "I'll split the difference and
compromise on the Jackass !" and he saddled the
; and mounted it; and the ass - kicked up, and
flung our man of wax into : the air, and as Sylva.
nps fell, the ass planted both heels in his stom
ach ; and thus died Sylvanus Stopple, the man
of wax ; and there was scr?aus talk about indict
ing ho ass for wilful murder.

the time to destroy those tine,, tine elders along,

D. L. Frolic bas the sills all laid and is putting

has suspended' operations with his "fountain of
health, - as be calls it, which by the way is a
good beverage for the hot weather and perfectly
harmless. Messrz. Flower &. Co., have just re

Tho school has o_pcned with about ono hundred

htarry.—For the past few weeks
nothing has occurred in our township intorestipg
to any One, so that will ,:tecount for tho non-ap
pearance of at, Deal items from Liberty. But
at preFent writing, f-dravo a few items to citron.'
kin that will, perh..ps,litterest some one of the
many rOn - ders of the AOITA' 11, A short time
since, we had one of the largest Sunday School
Pic•nies, in our township, that ever assembled
together at, any one time. It was compos.cd'of
the officers, teoeher.s 4 fltiti.SOliOr* of AO loi+,
an and Methodi'st hlpiscopal Sabbath s'fillools,
and numbered t,Oti jstron ,, . iter.s. PJ Neff
(Lutheran) and It. 11_ Ceti:ore (Illethedlstilivis-:
copal) officiated. -After the Sabbath 4chool.
Scholars were very appropriately addressed by
their Parlors, upon the all important 'subjects Of
Sabbath School enterprise, the scholars, one and
all, were invited by their officers, and teachers, to
a table erected on the ground for {hat , purposc,
where they itartoolc of just such, good things as
Suit the taste of Sabbath School children, or for
thitt ':ruatter, any body else. Alt pertiee that
took part in .tko oxerehlee of the day,lenjorti
,
themselves very muob , and say it will boa long
time before it e rrill be.erascdfrem th fo \ i!ineinories.
liming econ"in your last 'Week's - rtumter, an
item about tall oats, I cannot refrain from asking
the farmers of Charleston': to bold their breath
white I relate :to there the following colliffied
facts: Mr. Daniel Artleyin farmer of the moat
undoubted voracity, states that last Spring, be
procured 1 quart 'of Norway Oats, and sowed it
on a good spot - of ground. Lastlweek Mr. Art
ley threshed the crop, and measuring it before
witnesses, found that hehad raise ,from the 1-qt,
of seed, 170 quarts Of oats, that 'weigh' 40Ibs. to,
the bushel. Mr. AillOr also states, that Vii
I
Measured ono of the talldst spife ,:and ho found
it to ho 7, feet in-height. If an other farmer
in this county, 'or itt any other in the' 'State, Can'
beat Mr. Artloy, ho can have a fair chance of
.trading into the ring. -The farm rs of.our town:.
'ship have been well paid for their labors the past
summer. They have, withered their wheat; rye,
and oats, into their barns, and aro rejoiced to find
that their crop is an' abundant one. If the
weather remains propitious for ten days longer,
they will gather a good crop of buckwheat, corn,
and potatoes, t , z . f „, ,
