Interesting Account of When and How
dtwas first Discovered.
L. H. Elliott, Esq. 4 of Mansfield, fur
nishes the Bradford Reporter with the
following account of the discovery of
coal at Blosshurg :
P The discovery-of coal in the Towan
da mountains was made in 1812. This
is, just twenty years later than the lidis
cove*, of the coat In the Blossburg re
gion. -.ln 1792, Benjamin Patterson was
eMployed by Claptain Williamson, the
agent of the•Paltney estate, to open a ,
read: from • Aoss'i farm on the :West
Branch of the Susquenanna, (now the
city of Williamsport,) to Bath,. in Steu
ben county, NeW York. Patt rson was
a poted hunter, and for that r ason Was
'eMployed by Williamson to boss this
job and, to bunt elk, deer, ears, and
ot;her game, to supply his numerous
company with meat. In th month of
September, Patterson starts up tbei
Lycomirig creek with a company conl
slating of six Pennsylvania backwoods-

lives before. their; arrival. in this coun
try. .With this motley ere , M Patterson
undertoOk to open a road Over the
mountain, through what was then an
almost impenetrable forest of hemlock,
laurel, fallen trees and - brambles. Late
in the fall- they arrived at the place
now occupied by the village of Bloss
burg,which they named 'PeterlsCanip,'
from :their baker, whose name was Pe
ter, who built an oven there, and who
for his abominable filthiness his com
rades immersed and gave a thorough
washing. in the frozen, icy waters of
; Tioga. W bile hniating in this vicinity,
Patterson discovered coal, and knock
ing off some of it and carried it to the
camp, where it was pronounced to be
of superior 'quality by the Germans,
who were acquainted'with the article.'
Mr. M'Master, in bla n history of Steu
ben couuty, ' (to wiiiari I am indebted
for much of the above,) gives a graphic
description of the sufferings of l'hese
emigrants in their passage through this
`wildernjess, of their terrors at night at
the.screehing of owls, the howling of
wolves, and other, to them, unusual
noises, and their coffee when) the sup
ply of that. article failed. He says they
- would sit around their fires in the eve
ning' exclaiming, ' Ach ! kaffee, kaf-
I '
feo,, mein leiber kaffee!' (in English,
, d coffee, coffee, my dear coffee !') .
"My esteemed friend, Mr. Miller
Fox, of your place, told me that when
he was engineer of the Tioga railroad
when it wasbeing built, in making out
his report to the directors, he made the
statement that. the time would 'come
when there would be one hundred thou
sand thus of coal taken over that road
in one year. He .said he was laughed
at for the absurdity and extravagance,
of his prediction. Now see how this
prediction has been more than fulfilled:
Lott year, there were taken, from the
Blossbtirg region more than seven him
dre,d thousand ion—that is, from Mor-
BUni Fall ttrooi and Arnot. And
when the Weitsiinio and Lawrenceville
load is 'Coint.deted,' opening an outlet to
the Mines at Wilson's creint and all
that region, much, more coal will be
shipped. from Tioga county than ever
'has been. This road 111 be in opera
tion as far as.Wellsbo o, if net all the
way to the dial: reglo s, before winter

Farmers versus Sharpers.
What was known as the patent roof
sWindle was practiced on farmers in
Ohio until stopped by the courts. We
have not space to give details. Swin
dles 'on substantially the same plan are
being perpetrated In other Western
....44 — ites; only in this case the farmer
takes an agency for farm implements
instead of patent roof cement, &a. The
farmer is made an' agent on flattering
terms for farm implements, and signs a
document like thin:
This seems very fair; but if the paper
is cut in two at the blank apace, the left
hand pUttion becomes 'a plain note of
hand, and is sold by the swindler to
some unsuspecting attorney, who sues
for the amount.
A document prepared in this way was
used in the patent roof- cases which
came 'before the courts. The farmer
sighed h, plain reading agreement. - A
few; months later he was surprised _by
the presentation of a note for payment.
He Could not deny the signature, he
could not comprehend how his name
becume attached, and in this bewilder
rueht; with a sharp attorney threaten- 1
ing to sue, many a an paid the $2OO
1 ,
or $3OO, as the case ight be. At last
a stand was made, a n, the shrewd men
of a jury, leaving the hypothesis of the
lawyers, solved the problem, and in ev
ery case a verdiCt was returned in favor
of the farmer. At 'last another step
was taken, and the agents were arrest
ed and proceedings instituted against
theni. ' This caused a suspension of op-
I:
eqttions on the part of the swindlers.
Farmers trust stand on their guard
against such transactions. If they are

Here is a neat little story from. Ken
tucky: About twenty-five years ago a
young man from that State took a horse
back! ride to Virginia, - where his father
came from, and his way met a man
and his family moving West, so poor
that they were almost reduced to starva
tion: He had compassion on the wretch
ed group, and gave them a $2O bill with
whiCh to reach their journey's end. In
about fifteen years the young man re
Ceiv4d a letter from the man he had be
friended, paying that he was a prosper
ous merchant in Southern Kentucky,
and enclosing 'a $2O note to repay his
loan,' After another ten years, which
inchided the great rebellion and Rooter
mitnition, he was elected to the Lower
House of the ilentucky-Leglslature, and
being a man of talent and influence,
was chosen Speaker, during the contest
for which, he had noticed that a stran
ger and one of the other party was his
strongest supporter. His curiosity was
aroused by this, and he asked the man's

the member, "you will recall, when I
mention it, a little scene that occurred
'when you were a boy on your way to
Virginia. It was you who • saved my
wife from starvation, • She has told me
time and again, that never did a morsel,
of food taste so sweet—so utterley deli
i
cious, as that you gave her then. She
wasl but six years old at that time ; but
when she saw your name, during the
late' canvass, ; among the 'prominent
probable candidates for the speakership,
she i laid down the law-as to how I was
to vote. This'is all. Neither she, nor
her 'father and mother, brother and als-

R i onErtl' Tooans says of the manifes
tatibus of semi-civilization on the
part o f the people of the South :
"Some people call it Kuklux, r, wild
justice." Here i s one honest and
candid Democrat who admits the ex
istence of the Kuklux, and endorses
their actions. rrii4a wild justice he
speaks of is peculiar on_ this continent,
to the aborigines and the worst men
who hunt them down like dogs, but
bas t long since been'abandoned by what
MrJ Toombs is pleased to call r the pov

The LouiBville Courier-Joural thinks
he New Departure may not in this
Fall. It says the "Bourbons' • are be
ginning to sulk and dabble in ill pre
dictions, and that they, are already or
ganizing to defeat the Democrats in
Ohio and Pennsylvania. "If the' Nets
Departure does not win this Fall," they
say, "it will be a sign that it ought not
to have been made, and an admonition
to take the back track." Very ingen
ious.
