A very neatly put up package was M ut this
morning, by train, by the El ie .Station master
:it Smithboro, to Wysox, Pa., to a lady living
in that neighborhood. She had hum visiting
near Sinithboro, and for some reason or other,
left, her false teeth at the station there.
Probably she had been hurried onto I hjj train.
There has been much telegraphing tor the

It is reported, on trustworthy uuthority
that ECCI.ES ROBINSON lias withdrawn from
the defence of the action begun by his wife
for divorce, and will allow her to take judg
ment unopposed. This conduct on his part
is not in consequence of new developments in
the case, but rather it is inconsequence tf the
leaking out of facts—through the recent trial
about furniture—in the posossion of the
plaintiff's attorneys and witnesses, which
showed quite conclusively the Mr. ROBINSON
was deceiving his council and frit mis. Mr.
MILLARD therefore withdrew from the de
fence, and Mr. ROBINSON has taken himself
out of the city, and probably for good. Ac
cording to reports, he has for once made a
clean breastof it .— Jiinghamton Republican.
A subscriber writing from Towanda lias

that Elmira eun well afford to let some of hoi
good citizens like SAM. become residents of

It is so in polities, religion, and every where
else in life. The man whom you boost upthe
tree not only forgets to toss you down some

Superintendent JCDD caught a youngster
stealing bolts from the Barclay shops the
other day, hut let the little offender off on
surrendering the property and promising to
"refrain his hands from picking and stealing"
hereafter. The zeal for collecting old iron
amounts almost to a mania with the boys.
The mere mention of the name of Rev. F.
1). IIOSKINS— who was for several years
Rector of Christ Church, and has hosts of
friends and admirers here —in connection
with the lecture to be delivered at the Church

L. T. ROYNK is meeting with good success

what might be expected, as he is an entclli
gent gentleman, and the goods manufactured

The Rev. Doctor STEWART completed a
decade as pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church of this place last Sunday. For these
days this is a long pastorate, but the Doctor
lias so endeared himself to his parishioners
that it is quite probable, should life and health
he spared, lie will remain here many more
years.
The present membership of the church is
a 13. Twenty-eight members have died du
ring the ten years; some of them the most
liberal and devoted of all the friends of the
[ clmrch.
The benevolence of the congregation has
[ boon munificent and praiseworthy. The con
i tribtPions for all purposes amount to nearly
$">0,000; of this sum $1.7,000 was given to the
several missionary and benevolent societies
of the Presbyterian church at large. The in
debtedness of the church lias been fully pro
vided for, so that the congregation enters up
on another decade free from debt.
Last evening the ladies of the church gave
Doctor STEW\RT and his good wife a recep
tion ut the Church Parlors, in commemora
tion of the anniversary of their arrival here.
The congregation attended in large numbers,
and the evening was most pleasantly and
profitably spent. A sumptuous repast was
spread, congratulations offered, aud the hearty
unfeigned desire expressed that the happy and
pleasant relation existing between pastor and
people might long continue.
On returning to the parsonage after the re
ception, Mrs. STEWART found that her home
had been visited and a handsome set of china
left, as unothcrStfoupcntr of the nnnversary.
R. S. TIIUHBL'R lias been confined to his
house for the last five weeks bv an attack of
rheumatism.
A Troy, Pa., correspondent sends to the
Elmiia Advertiser the following:
44 At Sylvania, a small town about four miles
west of t his place, a drunken row and shameful
scene took place one day last week. A soup
man who had been carousing around here
for a number of days, making night hideous
with his discordant Veils, met with a tin man,
and they journeyed to Sylvania, where,getting
the proprietor of the Sylvania House, togeth
er with his wife and son, drunk, and also
getting themselves pretty well tilled, began
to knock each other down. After blacking
an eye or two apiece for each other (woman
not excepted), tliev settled the. affair by having
three mock marriages. The soap man acting
as officiating clergyman, soon joined two
hired girls and the old woman to three, not
being worthy the name of men. This is not
the first time the people of Sylvania have
been forced to stand such insults from the
proprietor of that hotel, for he has several
times been guilty of such performances, and
not long ago drew a knife on a young man of
that place.
A car, loaded with grain, jumped the track
at the upper depot yesterday morning. No
great damage resulted except the emptying
of a quantity of corn.
