Our lists do contain over thirteen huudred nameu, and that too, after droppioj those who have noglected to ouy within reasonable time. Our preseut lium- I ber ought to be yet largely increased to I meet the expenses necessarily incurred in I making a paper so large aud well filled. I We give full value for all that W6 receive more indeed than we ought, in justice to ourselves. We do not know of uny othi couutry paper, on wlvch so much is ex pended, thati9 offered at so low a price. 'he low price has one good effect it al lows many to subscribe for inore'thau on3 copy and have them sent to distant friends; and wherever the paper goes it secures permanent patron.

To the good people who are assisting us, with their subscriptions and iufluence, to make this a paper worthy to represont hem, we tender hearty thanks. Excuse this little gush of self-laudation, please we are not given to it, and you can bear it this once. Now we will quietly plod on towurd our Silver anniversary. Y. P.

However, a correspondent furnishes us an account of the occasion. i ne weatner was most untavorab e. a cold scow-storm and gale of wiud inukinw the air as disagreeable to humanity as the slumping sutw aud mud was the beasl. But could one have seen the loaded wag ons and carnare8 nloddin'r the mud and snow to get to West Falls he W0U-M have tbounht ihe whole country was anxious for a Railroad.

Kaily in theeven-tcsr thpspaciou- Hotel of R. A. Hammond became like the proverbial stage-coach r' having room for just, one more. Colden. East Hamburg and Aurora were well repre- seDted.

I When all who could had crowded into he ball, II. P. Waters. a. who Dfe- sided, called the multitude to ordr, and after a few introductory remarks called on Mr.

Baldwin of Colden, then Mr. A. VV. Gould, tLen Dr. O.

C. Strong all qF whom spoke in eloquent terms of the ob- jecla of the meeting and the benefits to be derived from the Railroad. Mr. N. Per- kius of West Falls next spoke of the great project.

The next speaker was Mr. George Hatch, who spoke of the trials he had suffered by ploddiug through tho triud and how overjoyed he was to think that in a few weeks he could do bis riding on a rail The venerable Henry Haight was called, but asked to be excused. The next and last speaker was the HON. ALBERT HAIGHT of Buffalo, who spoke growingly of the prospect of a Railroad through West Falls. The listener was persuaded to believe that the Judge would like to come back to the place of his childhood, to live and wituess the business of tbe express messergers and the men who wear the badges ou their caps, their blue suits and brass buttons.

The audieoce gave close atlentiou and frequently interrupted the speakers with applause. Afterthe speeches suppei waa announced; Yours for Railroad. Sudden Death. Mr. Hira Lush, an estimable resident of the north-west part ot this to wn, was iu usual health when, Wednesday evening, he told his wife he felt a peculiar pain in his breast.

She applied warm cloths and he experienced relief. After awhile ho agaiu felt the pain and again it was relieved, and lie went to bed feeling well. Suddenly he jumped out: his wife, alarmed, sprang to assist him, and he fell oack, dead. Disease of the heart was probably the cause. He, a man in good health, is taken in a night, and his wife, whose health is poor, survives.

Verily we know not our day. It behooves 119 to be in readiuess to meet a moat sudden call. Mr. Lush was a kind and gDial man, though he had been afflicted by the loss of family. Consumption took from him a wife and two sons who bud nearly reoched maubood.

His second wife is the only survivor of his immediate family. Real Estate Transfers. Nicholas Bolfndkr has purchased of Javan Clark the saw-mill property at Morton's Corners. Mr. B.

Nelson Scott has purchased of Wm. P. Mills the Evan's placeion West st. containing 23i acres; paying for the same $3,000. Mr.

S. intends to make this place his home and will put up a new house during the summer. Mr. Scott has lots of energy in his make-up, and is a man of commendable character. We are happy to welcome him here.

A Justice Court Incident. Abraham Bartholomew, attorney at law, last week, asked Police Justice King for a warrant against Justice Geo. teldmn, for an alleged assault and battery, and after listening to Bartholomew's ator the warrant waa issued. It appears that oartooiomcw waa engaged iryiris tne case or Meaner against Schntrura before Jaatice Feldm and asked an adjournment. The Justice refused to grant it, when hot words ensued.

Bartholomew says Feldman called him various hard names, and finally rn shed at him and struck him with his fist. Feldman saya nothlrg about the names, acknowledges tbe rushing, and denier the striking. He aald to an Eapmi reporter last evening that he woald never apologize, bnt would fight the matter to the bitter end. Tbere is evidently great' deal of bitten.s pp both aides: Tbere are good physical reasons. however, why Bartholomew hOnld not care to have it 6nt in a free fight.

The Justice would undoubtedly prove the belter man. Buffalo Emprett. Be not so certain and hasty in your prognostications of the "better man," Mr, Express, for there js ope paint very much in the fftrinprs favor.

W. Stick ney, the other day in relation to the extent of abortion among the cows of your town and vicinity, he inform- ed me that in his many years experience in airying he had bad at several times much trouble of the kind, and a few years since naa r.uviseu io use quite ireeiy ot sulphur, ashes and salt. Use about once a week as cows are usually salted. Mr. Stickney has for many yeats been the leadintr dairvman of our town, and bis observations are justly wuuuvumuie.

1 DIED. Hira Lush, died at his residence near the Concord Center cheese factory, March 15lh, aged 58 years, 2 days. Funeral this Saturday morning, at 11 o'clock at the bouse. Died, Orlando Titus, bon: July 17, 1835 and died Maich 12, 1882. This announce ment contains the two important events io the days that are alloted to our being; and perhaps with many, it is about the only eveut worthj of a public record; but Or-; lanuos lite, iu tbe humble sphere, that it was his fate to occupy, has been prolific in kindness; aud he has done what he could to lighten the burdens and soften the sorrows of those around him, and the world has been made brighter aDd better for his having lived iu it; and his loss will be lelt and mourned, uot only in the home and laimly circle, but by the entire community where he lived and was known; as was sor rowfully attested npon the day of his bur- rial tor when the hnal leave-taking came there was scarcely ao untear-dimmed eye in the large audience, for all felt that they were parting with a true friend and a kind 3 i i i auu iuviue oruiuur.

i.ne deceased was a brother of Jas. Titus of this town, Sterling urns oi oaruiLiu, ana senator tt. u. Titus of Buffalo; his sisters were Mre. David Gale of West Falls, Mrs.

R. Dayton of Clarksburg; and Mrs. J. Richardson and Mrs. Wm.

Frye of this place these be leaves an ajred and devoted mother, Mrs. Esther Titus of Sardinia, and a tender and loving wife to mourn his loss. This is the first time for over forty years since death has entered this family circle aud the takicgoff of Orlaudo, so sudden and unexpected is keenly felt by all the family, while the doatiug wife is almost heart broken with the great shadow tnat has forever darkened tho pathway of her i aomeiniug over lorty years ago, the father was taken away, leaving the mother in humble circumstances, with a family of a small cniiurect to ner care. 1 his duty she ban faithfully performed: keeping them together during their teuder years giving them the shelter of a home.and ah th-) benefits of education that it was in her power to confer, until they were strong enough to begin the battle of life for themselves; and the veaerable aud devoted mother has the satisfaction of knowing that the early less ons, mat bue lnstiuea into tneir vonnsr minds by precept and example, have been heeded, and that they bave grown up to years of man and womauhood, without one single blot or stain, that would call ablush to her aged cheek, for ah have become use ful and honored members of society; and another thing the life of this venerable mother is worthy of special mention, that has bad a hallowed influence upon the iite and character of her children; she has ever maintains a borne where her children could turn in the hours of dark adversity and nave the benefits ot her kind counsel and tender, undying love thai knew no shadow of wavering or turning. Mrs.

Clarinda Hedges, wife of Mr. John Hedge3, whose death you published in your last, was born iu the town of Concord, iu tiro year 1834. She experienced religion in 1850, and united with the Pres byterian Church in Glen wood, of which she remained an active, consistant member, until her removal by death. Her's was not a mere profession on the outward adorning, only, but also tho inwaid adorning, of a meek, and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God, is of great price. She was a con stant attendant on the' public administra tion of the word and the weekly prayer meeting, unless providentially hindered.

She loved the boose of tbe Lord, and the fellowship of saints, and labored for tbe growth and unity of the ChuroU. She was always ready with a word of cheer for tho i Borrowiug di.ciple.and to lend a helping hand her own household, in her every day family duties and responsibilities. Her last sick- ness was long, protracted and exceedingly painful, yet without a murmor. her faith waa comforting ami eudunng, Lioducing a heavenly calm within- that she could wy with the Anostle most sladlv will 1 suffer distress, that the power of Christ, or the I grace of Christ, may rest upon me. She died in the covenant of grace ordered in all thingg aud sure, through faith in her divine Saviour.

work is doue, and she has gone home to her reward. She reets from Jier labors and the weariness of the flesh. May the God of all grace and consola- nn nimfrtrt. tllft tiAAvto rf iha haraonil family. The fuuei al services were held in the Presbyterian Church at Gleuwood, sermon by the Pastor.

Ai.orich. I he new railroad will bring another flood of students to Griffith Institute more than the present building can accommodate. Enlargement should precede the time of necessity, so as to prevent disappointing would-be patrons and slow recovery from the cousequect loss. A seperate building for the ucademic department should be erected the coming summer. If it is done tbe Institution will within the year receive a large influx of students aod become so prosperous as to be almost if not quite self-sustaiuing.

How much easier could the passage be- tw- en Springville and Ashford ba made by a road down the vallpy of Spring Brook Ou all of the existing roads are uteeD breakers necessitating slow, laborious pace aud light loads. This valley, however, af fords a gradual descent from Springville to the Cattaraugus, aod a good road could be easily made. It would be a great blessing to the iny who draw loads from that di rection, aud also a beoefit to Spriogvillei as it Wiiiild attract many whom the hill now repels. Bryant J. Davis has gone beyosd the returning-board and put himself out of the office to which he had been declared elected.

Though tha certificate names him as one of the constables elect, and though he, had sworn in and bis bond been accepted he has resigned because a question has been raised as to the count. It seems that the board, to save time iu counting, guessed as to the constables elected, and afterward some one counting the ballots found that John Gaylord had received votes enough to entitle bun to election; but as five others had beeu declared elected he could not serve. The resignation of Mr. Davis made a vacancy and tho board has appointed Mr. Gaylord.

Thk drama of the Ticket of Leave Mao, as rendered by nur amateurs, on Tuesday evening at the Opera House, was well attended and duly appreciated. The rendition of all the characters were true to nature aod some of the acting fur surpassed our expectation. Mrs. Bryant's Willough-by in connection with Fred. Myres, Sam, was mirth provoking in the extreme; while Mr.

Oswald's Brierly.and Mrs. S. B. Spaul-pings' May Edwards, were fully in accord with our ideas of these characters. John Melvin aud Mrs.

C. O. Smith were at home in their role aud did not fail to bring down the house. oho Chafee does the landlord splendid; John Qoigley makes a good rascal Geo. Barker a fine detective, and George McCJure sharp as a bill shaver, in fact every one did well.

In April, 1881, Weidrich and Mena eloped and landed in New York, leaving his wife and the other seven child- ren. During (the summerjof 1881, Weid- rich and Mena went to house-keeping in Buffalo. Sometime in October last Mrs. Weidrich came to Buffalo in search of her truant husband and daughter, aod found them, aud all went to living together promiscuously we don't know how happily. Iu the summer of 1881, John Frantz, a farm hand working sometimes for Ed.

Wyatt and sometimes for Henry Atkley of Concord, was very desirous of getting married and offered a new Dutchmau $lt) to find him a wife. Our new friend John to Buffalo and introduced liim to Mena, aforesaid, the uext day they were married and came to Boston, aud soon alter went to keeping house uear Fowler-ville, and lived quietly three or four weeks, wnen weidncn and wite moved in upon them and trouble commenced. Weidrich drove Frautz out of bis own place and got iu himself. A fight ensued und Frautz got choked. Weidrich and family moved out aud Mena went with them.

Frautz had Weidrich arrested for assault and battery, and Justice Curran fined him $10. Mena smiled lovingly on Frantz and he wilted, and offered to settle the whole affair. Mena agreed to live with Framz agaiu and he got the money to reimburse Weidrich's $10 fiue. Frautz waited and waited, in his lonely home, but Mena came not. Finally Frantz weut to his work.

Weidrich went to Fiantz's house and confiscated most of his furniture. When Frantz came home nis wratn waa up; a search-warrant was procured and tbe chattels found in Weidrich's house, hidden. Mrs. Weidrich remonstrated with the officer, bit his arm and raised tbe mischief generally; but the officers took the goods and arrested Weidrich and took him before Squire Lock wood of Patchin, who tuned him np $20 or forty days in the Erie County Buckle Shop. Not having the ready, he went, aud is now earning fifty cents a day toward the payment of the fine.

Frantz hired out to John Anthony, Esq. of Boston. Mrs. and Mrs. Frantz hang out near Fow-lerville still.

How the affair will end remains to be seen. This isn't the only elopement party from Germany settled in tt is section but a man living with mother and daughter at the same time is a little too too for our good Concord people. Like the Chinamen, these people must go, when warm weather comes, all of them. The facts aa they appeared at the trials were very revolting too indecent for publication. -Tbe parties could talk otherwise they do not seem much above tbe brute creation.
