VISELAND.--Georgc 9. Aud, of Davisville,
for several years a resident of vineland, New
Jersey, as appears by letter to the Tntcl,i-
gencer, is not favorably impressed with that
town as place for poor man or ono in
moderate circumstances to better his fortune.
He says the land on which the town is built
was purchased by Mr.. Landis, the founder of
the place, at about S25 per aero and sold to
settlers at from $50 to 5000 per acre, and that
he was becoming rich while the people were
getting poor. Within few years past thu
people have taken things into their own hansls
and have carried the elections in opposition 10
the Lands policy. For person with plenty
OF means he says Vineland is a very nice place
OF residence, but he would not advise any one
to 60 there to make living off the land.
The soil is Of such quality that It costs too
much for fertilizers to make it produce a
crop, and stable manure isvsry high and hard
to get, The consequence ia that the popula-
ton Is decreasing, and large amount of
property has been sold to pay the taxes on ~
Mr., Aud advises those having farms in Bucks
county to stick to them, and If they win work
as hard at home as they will have to work at
Vineland to keep from starving, they win soon
better their condition.

EY~ The Modocs were in n bad humor at
tile last meeting of Council held Wednesday
evening of last week. They had been during
the year doing the work of their proprietors,
and voting their friends all the little land big)
sums asked for without much regard to the
character of the bills presented, thinking no
doubt of the "good time coming" when the
committees should be paid 50 literally, and
the flattering compliment of denomination
be bestowed. But alas the friends they had
served SO well in their ends, could not return
the favor when perhaps they would, and did
not when they could. REORGANIZATION would
have been some comfort, but to be cut off
without either pay or promotion, was more
than the maddled Modoc mind could dispose
of with composure.
The memberffo ON So tlandy France, or some
other country, undertook to lay out Capt.
Horna charging him with cutting off the
pay of the committees, but discovered af-
ter he had pulled trigger that the muzzle of
his piece pointed toward himself and he sub
sided for time being fill, however, of bile,
or something else, he turned on the uncom-
promising Levi of the old End Ward He,
Levi, had made money out of the orders from
the Overseer of the Poor on Brown 81 Bro.
and deserved rebuke. As the Overseer was
a Democrat, however, and could direct his or
ders where he pleased, and the transaction was
a purely business one, not concerning Coun-
Gil, uRlesss in connection with the OverseeN
the abuse only acted as rccoil. "
The mischief then tried to enlighten
Council about some difficulty in connection
with the printing of the School Trustees Re
port, apparently with view to fault the
Auditing Committee on City Treasurer's Re-
port, but got more and more mixed aboutlit,
not even being able to make motion himself
in regard to it. The real gist of the thing, as
Is welnknewg, was. to giyea httle more prints
ing to the other paper, but instead of that it
resulted in missing the little that was offered

the day for the Meeting to take
place on the 18th Of August, instead OF
the Sth Of the same month. The

had it right, whilst our editorial had
