Wyoming County Bible Society. The friends of Bible circulation are about to reorganize the above named society. The former officers were, Hon. Ira Avery, President; Samuel Stark, Secretary Hon, P. M.

Oster- hout, Treasurer. O. S. Mills has kept the depository during the past fifteen years at the store of Mills Billings, where a stock of cheap bibles and testaments are kept constantly on hand. It is proposed to hold an an- iversary of the society in one of the churches of Tunkhannock some time in December next, at which an election of officers will be held, and measures adopted for canvassing tbe entire county, that every family found destitute of the Bible may be supplied with copy, or have the offer of one.

Rev. S. Kennedy, the former agent of the society, is expected to resume the work of collecting funds and distributing bibles throughout the county. Another Flower Gathered. Rev.

Geo. D. Stroud, pastorof St. Peter's Free church of Tunkhannock, received a telegram on Sunday evening last that his eldest daughter was dying at Towanda. He hastened home on the'first train but when he arriyed life had already departed.

The following we take from the Towanda Review 'She had been an invalid for nearly a year past, and some months since the disease at tacked her heart, tearing little ground for hope that she would ever recover. Bsssle was an unusually bright and intelligent girl, devotedly lOTed by her familyand a general favorite with all her young companions, by whom she will be sincerely mourned. The bereaved parents have the unfeigned sympathy and heart-felt condolence of this entire community in their great affliction which has come to them just on the eve of their departure to a new home. Calm on the bosom of thy God. oung spirit rest thee now, Even while with us thy footsteps trod, His seal was on thy brow.

The Montrose Demonstration. The Garfield and Arthur demon stration at Montrose on Friday even ing last was probably the grandest of the campaign in the northern Tier, The delegation from Wyoming county which was carried up by the Montrose train numbered oyer four hundred, and aa they approached the depot at Montrose with lighted torches and flying rockets presented ascene whose splendor we feel unable to describe. The Montrose delegation, numbering over six hundred torches were waiting at the depot to escort the visitors through the town. Excellent music was furnished by the Tunkhannock, Brooklyn and New Milford bands and the Lemon Drum Corps, and the marching of the multitude showed that many had been accustomed to march to music. The fine residences along the way were gaily decorated with flags and Cbinesa lanterns and illuminated with thousands of candles.

As tbe procession eared the centre of the town it was divided and approached the square from different directions amid a perfect shower of rockets, Roman candles, fire balls, and enthusiastic shouts for (Jarfield and Arthur and Republican principles, At about ten o'clock the procession broke ranks and as many as could crowded into the court room to listen to Gen. Adam King, of Maryland, who spoke for about two hours, fully showing up the principles and frauds of the Democracy and contrasting them with tne untiring efforts of the Republican party to secure the welfare of the greatest country pn earth. A the same time Louis M. Hall, of To. wanda, was addressing the crowd who were unable po get inside from the steps of the building.

On Saturday, the day after the notice appeared, pa- pers of these dates began to flock in and now we have more than enough for our purpose. We return our hearty thanks for the response. Mr. Daniel Hunsinger, of Colley Sullivan county, has sent us some very fine sweet potatoes of his own raising, which were planted as late as August 1 the proper time lor planting it- June I. He makes quite a business of raisins them and has plants for rale about the first of June every year.

That they can be profitably grown in this climate is proven by the fact that be raised some that weighed 2 pounds, and he and his neighbors harvested over two hundred bushels this year. The Wyalusing Star is the latest in Bradford county journalism. It is a seven column, paper ana is oublished at Wyalusing by S. Clizbe Sou. It is independent in politics and will be devoted principally to local happenings.

Bradford county is pretty well crowded with newspa pers and a new one to succeed must be a good one. The senior Clizbe, hav- ag bad long experience in the busi ness, pronaoiy Knows just wnat is wanted. The first issue makes a good appearance and gives evidence of an terprising management, -We notice in theArkansas Newport News that our former townsman W. H.Bogartis recorder of that borough. We also notice that the firm of Bogart in a column advertisement.

ihaUenge the State to compete with them on the sale of hardware, itoves, sewing machines, indicates enterprise and prosperity. A report of a stage robbery, a drunken escapade of a pair of "border ruffins," in which they fire- their pistols into a crowd while riding at a full gallop through the street, killing one man and wound- ng another, their pursuit and capture by citizens and subsequent lynching from jail and hanging to a tree by a party of masked, men show that the place is reasonably lively and we suppose friend Bogart fully enjoys the excitement.

At an early hour Buraes' Hall was crowded to listen to Louis M. Ha'l, who for over an hour eloquently addressed the meeting, and with the most powerful and convincing arguments sustained Garfield and Arthur and the right, the just and tbe true.

He was briefly followed by William H. fin le-spoDbe to a general call), who confined himself mostly to our county ticket and spoke in high and glowing term? of the men upon it. A torch-light parade followed, headed bv the drum corps Tne number participating was unusually larsre, dwarfed that of the Democracy of a few days previous for largeness, enthusiasm, regularity and gone. VV, l-fe the rest ot man Kind went to tbe show, for everybody and everybody's wife was expected to be there. And sure enough, we found them there.

Every hill and valley was represented every father's son in his holiday attire, and every mother's daughter in her bran new diessand hat of the latest style, with artificials, ribbons and streamers fluttering in all the shades and color of the rainbow, and in such profusion that "Solomon in all his elory" couldn't begin to match them. "After looking around a while we found the centre of gravity was the track, and the other depart ments the side shows, so we went to the track with the rest. The racing there was brisk and spirited, the horses made a good appearance and good time, tut for the life of us we couldn't see where the agricultural came in. A fast norse is goou lor nothing else, and what does the fat time amount to? Traclically, it is a gambling commodity nothing more. But here is "a dead fly in the oint ment," a gambling wneei wnat do they call it? A "wheel of some one fays, wen, it is tne wneei of misfortune to its votaries, who are mostly bays.

In gambling parlance it personates the pickpocket; it is (be spider's parlor for all the silly flies that are flitting about the grounds. Nearly every lad who works for hire in the regions round about calls in a portion of bis hard-earned wages to go to the fair and see the sights, and regale him- salf on the many dainties and goodies he expects to find there. In the hey day of life and his best riir, he keeps step to the music of the rolling dimes and quarters in bis pocket. The first sight that greets his eyes on entering tbe grounds is that gaudy wheel, roll ing, rolling, rolling, and Mr. Spider calling at the top of his voice, here's where you double your money Of course he walks right up, some boy has drawn a prize, so he puts down bis dime; it comes a blank-as usual, blanks are the rule and prizes the ex ception.

He puts down another and draws another blank. He is told not to be discouraged, he'll get it all back by and by. Perhaps he draws a prize, but the blanks are so much in tbe ma jority that he soon finds his pockets empty and has to stand back for some new comer, counted out. He has bought nothing, seen nothing but tbe wheel, and learned nothing but its disappointments. Now how is this? Who is accountable for calling com- munily together under the guise of an agricultural exhibition for agricultural improvement to have their pockets picked and the morals of their youth outraged and corrupted by this mousing gambler? Things were managed better when the fairs were held on the hill about I860.

We remember that one fellow came with his wheel and and was "toting" it up the hill and was met by one of the managers who told bim to "get out with that thing!" and he got out. There are ways enough for "the fool and bis money" without the flaunting devices of the roulette wheel. Observer. We have Found What the People Want.
