NoRTuuMBERLAND.-Th editor Of the hiltOniaM
recently paid a visit to Northumberland, and in the
last issue of his paper speaks very highly of the u
ture prospects of our neighbors. We copy the fol-
lowing notice of Chamberln, Frick & Co.'s Steam
Saw Mi'' at that place :-"Among the most :mpor-
tant of these improvements we noticed Chamberin,
Friek Co. Steam Mill, at the northern end Of the
town and adjacent to the canal and railroad. This
mill was erected little year ago, by Messrs.
NJ. and W, g. Chamberlin, of this borough, associa-
tod with Mesrs Henry Frick and ]. c. Mcclure, of
Lewisburg, and is large, finely constructed and
conveniently arranged establishment, employing
a number of hands and turning out large amount
and great variety Of work The buildings cover
ground one hundred and sixty by eighty -four feet,
and contain one large gang, two edgers, and two
circular saws, two lath and paling machines, and
one shingle machines while works are now being
built for the purpose Of converting what is now re-
fuse into ''coth boards" to be used by manufactur
ers in wrapping their cloths around for shipment
The mill as now arranged is capable of turning out
1000 feet of lumber 5000 shingles and 5000 laths
per day. Contracts for the Keystone Bridge Co.
have called for largo amounts of bridge timber du
ring the past year, and the mill is still engaged in
turning out bills for that Company. During the
late food the gate of the sluice way connecting the
mill basin with the canal gave way and took por-
tion of the bank with it into the camel. The dam
age being rapidly and substantially repaired on
Monday, and it was expected to have everything
ready for operating Tuesday. One Of the secrets
of the success of this firm is the systematic manner
ir which their business is conducted While the
senior member Of tho firm, hr. M Chamberlin,
holds supervisory and advisory position Mr.. Frick
devotes particular attention to the shipping inter-
ests, Mr. Mcclure superintends the financial trans
actions and keeps the books, and Mr., W. b. Cham
nerlin has direct charge of the mills and the work
done by them. Thus everything Is 50 systematized
that no arring is felt in the management OF the vast
amount of business done by the establishment. We
are pleased to note the success attending the ehter-
prise"
