ROBBERY OF A BrsHop.-At the
close of last week the Rev. Bishop
Baker, Of the NJ. E. Church, while on
his way to the South was robbed of
his pocket book, containing $50, and
a number Of outline sermons, which he
had prepared during the winter. The
Bishop was at the ticket Office, at the
foot of Cortlandt street, and had takan
out port-monaie to pay the fare, a
crowd being around the office at the
time. The pocket book taken was In
the breast pocket of the coat 1t is to
be hoped that the thief will make a
good use Of the sermons-perhaps the
best thing he could do, to partially
atone for his offence, will be to return
the sermons.

AoSrooAsRY CousTY.-The Editor
Of the Corning Sentiael recently visit.
ed the County Of Montgomery. He
gives the following description:
Pursued our way to Frankfort, the
county-seat of Montgomery. Reaching
the summit Of the highlands Of western
Adams, Frankfort is plainly discern
lille distance of Is miles. Shortly
after crossing the line, we descended
into the rich and fertile valley of the
West Nodaway, along which as far as
the eye could rich, We beheld cultivat-
ed farms and comfortable homes. The
country is much better settled than we
anticipated, and casting your eye mp
and down the Nodaway, the settle
ments look like little villages. The
West Nodaway, like the East and
Middle Nodaways that pass through
Adams county, is heavily lined with
timber. Passing out of this valley,
the prairie is high and rolling and we'll

but the entire absence of timber acts
a. . drawback to its immediate settle.
ment. Frankfort is q quiet little vii
lage containing about dozen families,
and like the towns of the west gener-
ally has suffered from the paralytic
stroke of "hard times" The citizens,
however, are wide-awake, hospitable,
social and intelligent, and are looking
cheerfully forward to better condi-
ton Of things. They havcsA Lyceum
organized, to which they frequently
resort for the discussion Of various to-
pics, reading Of compositions, &C., in
which lively interest IS manifested
BY all, especially the ladies. Then
again they frequently assemble for the
celebration of important historical
events, where they amuse themselves
with toasts and speeches. All in all,
the people Of Frankfort act with philo-
sophical wisdom, and find thousand
ways of social and intellectual enjoy
ment.
AFToN.-The editor of the Sentinel
also gives the following notice Of AZ
ton, the county-seat of Union county {:
A large number Of buildings that
were under Roadway when we were
there upon a former occasion, we
found completed and occupied. Many
Of these improvements are of sub
stantial character, and creditable to
the enterprise and energy of their foun-
dees. No town in southwestern Iowa
advanced as rapidly as did Alton dur
ing last season. Extensive preparations
are being made for going ahead next
summer, and it is believed still greater
improvements will be made than in the
season past.
