The New YoRE AND ERIE RAILROAD
The first train passed over this important
public work on Tuesday last, from Piermont
TO Dunkirk, its entire length, of 465 miles.
A freight train will commence running on
the 2Sth inst, but as the steamers on the
Lakes will not be ready 10 commence their
trips until the middle of May, the Express
trains will not commence running until that
time. The New York and Erie Railway
Company was chartered in 1899. 1t was
then estimated that the road could be built
graded !or double and laid with single
track, from the River to the Lake, for less
than five millions of dollars ; and no one
anticipated that period of more than six OF
eight years would be consumed in its con-
struction. Nearly nineteen years have pas
sed since the Company was organized, and
the road is just completed, at a cost of about
twenty millions of dollars. Fifty three
miles of the road had 10 be rebuilt and
counting the time when the great enterprise
was really undertaken with spirit, little
more than four years have been consumed
in its nsiruction.-LedgtT.

RAILROAD CONVENTION POSTPONED.

The Railroad Convention which was to
have been held at Georgetown, in this
County, to day ga Of May,J has been post
poned until Tuesday the Sd of June next.
The reason for this postponement, is the
passage Of the Susquehanna Rail Road bill.
by the last Legislature, which will pass
over the same ground of the contemplated
Mahonoy and Wsconisco road. The in
terests Of beth roads will therefore be con-
centrated into the one road leading from
this place to Harrisburg. As the connec-
tion Of the York and Cumberland Road.
with the Pennsylvania Rail Road, depends
on the construction Of the Harrisburg and
Sunbury Rail Road, the prospects of the
extension Of the road to Erie is rendered
highly favorable, and deep and extensive
interest will therefore be manifested in the
proceedings

&C. On our first page will be found a
number of interesting articles. Those fond
of original poetry, rare commodity now
a days, will find the "Three Thayers," 5"
truly so. Though we would not recon-
mend it as model for beginners and no.
vices in the art, yet we are constrained to
say, that the writer conveys his ideas more
clearly than some who soar much higher
in the regions Of fancy.

Destructive Fire at tHonesdaIe-SI5o,oO 900 in
Properly Destroyed.

HoNEsDALE, April 26,-We were visited
last night by most destructive and calam-
itous conhagation by which at least $780,
900 worth OF property in the most active
business quarter of the town has been des-
uoyed. The fire broke out about / ! o'clock
in the store of Edward Murry, situated near
the lateral basin of The Canal on Main street
and spread with such rapidily and violence,
that BY two O'Clock this morning, when its
progress was al length checked, two blocks
and half in the centre of the town had
been reduced 10 ashes.

AGRICULTURAL CONVENTION.

Impressed with the advantages that must
grow out OF constantly improving system
of Agriculture, and believing that such ad-
vancement will result from association and
combined effort, we take the liberty of call
Ing upon our fellow citizens 10 meet us al the
Court House in Sunbury, on SATURDAY,
2iih day Of MAY, al O'Clock, P. NJ, for
the purpose of organising an Agricultural
Society for the County of Northumberland.
A State Society has been formed under the
Influence and by the energies of able and
distinguished men. County Societies are
SPrlngng up around us, and it is not proper
that cold Northumberland the mother of
counties, should be hindmost in this impor-
tant and interesting enterprise. To cooper.
ate with these, and 10 emulate them will be
portion OF our purpose.
1t Is time Pennsylvania should assume the
position she is entitled to occupy, by virtue
OF her resources, her population, and her ia-
dnstry. New York and New England. less
favored BY nature in soil and climate, have
taken the lead, and in improved stock, i'm
plemenis, and systems of Agriculture, are far
ahead. We can overiake them, and it is
our duty to DO SO. The Rip Van Winllleism
of Pennsylvania farming should come 10 an
end. From Chester to Erie, and from WAYNE
to Green, let the Big Ball of Improvement
roll ! aud be our voices mingled with the
rest, to cheer its progress
A. this Society is contemplated 10 embrace
Rural and Domestic Economy in all its
branches, and as all men live by the fruits
OF the earth. this invitation is limited to no
class or calling, but is addressed to all
Aad though the tillor of the soil is the most
! concerned and will be the most benefited.
yet every man who feels an interest in the
advancement Of the largest of human pur-
suits, is earnestly and kindly solicited TO be

numerously attended vendues ever held in
this County, was at the sale of the personal
property Of Conrad Kershner, decd, at
this place on Saturday last. The Admin

the sale was made known, and persons at
tracted from every part of the County
The sale amounted to Thirteen Hundred
Dollars, and the administrator feels salts

one two hundred dollars, by expending a
few dollars for advertising.
