The Mercury for Seteniber, which is al ready on our table well maintains its high literary reputation. A marked feature of the number is a continuation of the iutresting searial "Kariu" written especially for that journal.

WILLIAMS passed a perfect exam ination in everything except arithmetic bo fore the Military Board at West Point. In the latter branch lie had live discredit marks, which under the rules rejects him. Gen. HOWARD, however, gave him a letter to Con gressman JADWIN requesting that he (WILL IAMS) be re-appointed, ami we have 110 doubt the request will be cheerfully complied with, and that at the next examination in June, ROBERT will go through all right, and win his uniform. It is proper in this connection, to say that Mr. WILLIAMS had but a short time in which to prepare for his examination, and that for the last week he was prevented from studying by a fearful boil 011 his face. On Fndry evening the Fourth degree was conferred on a candidate by Osealuwa Grange. Patrons know what this implies—a feast and a good time.

Sister J3KLLE SMITH was editess, and the articles, original and selected, indicated rare talents. The most entertaining produc tion was an able letter from Hon.C.F. NICH OLS, a former active member of Osealuwa, and now Justice of the Peace in McPberson, Kansas. It was listened to with marked at tention by all present. According to custom, after the iniatorv TOWANDA, PA., MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1881. ceremony had been completed, the " gates " were thrown open and quite a number of in terested spectators were invited in, among them lawyer JAMES WOOD and his accom plished wife, .Mrs. SIMrKiNS, of Detroit, Mich., and others. Hon. JAMES FOSTER, who has been absent for some time, was also present to the delight of his fellow members. The young man, JAMES HUNTER, who fell from a third story window in the Ilenry House, on Tuesday evening last, died Satur day morning. Mr. HUNTER came here from his home in Barclay in company with a young lady to be present at the marriage of two young gentle men friends who expected to meet their brides elect, the young ladies haying just ar rived from Scotland, but they did not reach Towanda until 1 o'clock in the morning after the fatal accident. Mr. HENRY says the yeung man was qpt so much intoxicated as has been represented. He lived in a miner's house with his moth er in Barclay and was in the habit of stepping through the window to the ground, and it is supposed that in a sleepy, bewildered state he imagined himself at home and stepped from the window. The deceased was 37 years old and had re sided in Barclay for the past thirteen years; he has borne a good character during that time, and for several years was a consistent member of the Baptist Church. He leayes a widowed mother —his father haying died eight months since—one sister and brother in Barclay, and one brother in the old country. He was a member of the order of Knights of Pythias and a Knight of Honor, and his brothers of these orders have kindly cared for him during his suffering after the accident. His relatives were also with him. The remains were conveyed to Barclay Saturday afternoon,and the funeral took place yesterday under the auspices of the Knights of Pythias. The President's Condition.
