The nekt meeting of the managers of the Agricultural Society will be bold on the 30th instant. People who have attended KENT'S auction this week have become satisfied that Mr, K. is determined to close out his stock, and that the sale is honestly and fairly conducted. No deception is practiced, and all goods are war ranted just as represented or taken buck. If qpiy of our readers have not attended the sale, they had better do so and secure bargains. The trite saying that in union there is strength, is nowhere more strikingly exem plified than in a locomotive. How utterly powerless and useless each part would he separated, and yet the combination of many weak factors forms a product of superhuman power and vast utility. Again in the con struction of such an engine the united labor and aggregated intellect of many men pro duce a result which it would be impossible for a single pair of hands to attain in a century. What is to he done with Potter county. An exchange says: "At"a recent term of the quarter sessions court of Potter county, Pa., the District Attorney informed the Court that he had no indictments or hills to present to the grand jury; the Sheriff also stated that he had no criminals in the prison; the directors of the poor reported that they had no one to keep at the county's charge or expense." Potter county has had .no liquor license for 25 years, and this is given as the cause for the lack of court business. TREADWELL, of the Binghainton Jiepnbli- C2?i , spent Sunday in Messhoppen, and thus refers to that enterprising town: "Your correspondent spent last Sunday at the popular summer resort of Meshoppeu. It is an old Indian town, and still hears its In dian name, and its location indicates its Indian origin. A large milling business is carried on here, by D. T. Sterling, with an annual shipment of many carloads of grain in differ ent parts of the Middle States. Its hotel, the Sterling House, built from the plans of Bing ba in ton's noted archeteet., 1. G. l'erry, is a model of convenience, and Messrs. Damon A Sons, the genial hosts, are equal to the emer gency of entertaining all who favor this his torical locality with u visit. One dry last week a mysterious affair oc curred near Troy, Pa , on the farm of LYMAN VAN HORN. It seems that Mr. VAN HORN hired a young man the other day who came along on the tramp. lie was there several days, when lie was asked his name, but he would not tell it. Afterwards, while this man was cutting some wood, the axe flew from him and gave him a severe gash on the head, which laid him up. Last Sunday he got out of bed. got a gun which was handy, and shot himself it the throat. The doetor was called and took five bullets out of hint. The man is still alive, hut says he is deter mined to kill himself, and docs not want to Jive any longer. There Is 110 one who knows the reason of his trying to take his life, or his name. The people arc considerably ex cited over the affair, lie is a German.— Elmira Advertiser. Go to Mercur Hull to-night and hoar "Sher man's March to tlic Sou." Personal.

We were favored last evening with a call from Mr. ELLIS, agent in Northern Pennsyl vania for Appleton's New Cyclopedia, a work, lv the way, vvh'c'i constitutes : 11 in valuable library in itself, and which no funn ily who can spare the money to purchus.) it should be without. Wo judge the publishers have made a fortunate selection in Mr. ELLIS, who has the appearance of an enterprising, urbane gentleman; and moreover lie comes highly endorsed. We clip the following com plimentary notice of hi 111 from the Daily Times , Hornellsville, N. Y.: '• We learn that Mr. CIIAS. J. ELI.IS, lately of this city, lias accepted the position of Gen eral Manager of Northern Pennsylvania for Appleton's Cyclopedia. Last Summer Mr E. studied dentistry in the office of Dr. Rishel and during the winter lias been pursuing his studies at the; University of P< nnsylvania in Philadelphia. The offer of it large salary has been huliieient temptation to temporarily draw him away from his profession. Mr. E. was agent for this splendid cyclopedia during his residence .MI Hornellsville. Being a cour teous gentleman, possessing culture as well as energy, he met with surprising success. — He is well known to our prominent people, and in common with lis they will regret the loss of a citizen of so rare social and business qualities. We run eordially recommend him to the people of Northern Pennsylvania as a gentleman of strict integrity. We wish him success in his new lie Id," Mr. ELM* will make his head quarters at the Ward House, and through the aid of several assistants, will make a thorough can vas of this county.

BLECKLEY took his leave of the Georgia Supreme Court, after serving as and associate justice, for live years, After lie had delivered several opinions 011 eases which the Court had decided, he took up a sheet of paper and read-therefrom the following lines, which were drawn up in the form of a regular judicial opinion: In the Mailer of lie st. BLECKLEY, J. 1. Rest for the hand and brow and breast, For fingers, heart and brain! Rest and peace,! a long release From labor and from pain; Pain of doubt, fatigue, despair— Pain of darkness everywhere, And seeking light in vain! 2. Peace and rest! Are they the best For tnoi tills here below? Is soft repose from work and woes ' A bliss for men to know? Bliss of time is bliss of toil: No bliss but this, from sin and soil, Does God permit to grow. Judge BLECKLEY read the lines slowly and with emphasis. By order of the. Court they were spread on the minutes in honor of their author. EDS. REVIEW— Dear Sirs .—The Elmira people seem to hav >come to as ami-still about their monument for Adam—waiting for some suitable design. It ought not to be a very great strain on their brains to lind the exact thing. In the first place, this monument is nol to he raised 011 account of Adam's being a good man—the only great thing he did that has made him known so well, is that he was the first man to break the laws of God, and as a matter of course, the first scoundrel. After that, no more is known of him, "And where he's gone,and how he fares, No one knows, and no one caies." If the people of Elmira are at a loss for a design or model, they are at perfect liberty to copy our monument to Adam in Towauda, which we hem, call a jail. Burlington will noon have a monument to Adam—hut for variety's sake it will he called the Poor House.
