YoRK, Pa, Feb. 6, 1875.
ED. JOURNAL Last week made a
trip via. Harrisburg up the Cumberland
Valley. At Mechanicsburg young man
who answered to the name of Henry Shell
den, and claimed to hail from Mansfield,
Ohio, thought he would enjoy the fine
sleighing, consequently engaged a horse
and sleigh of l. Totten the livery man OF
that place, saying he would return in few
hours. Failing to put in an appearance,
the proper officers were put on track,
who found him at Harrisburg, having
sold the harness and bells to a party in
the city and sleigh to a farmer near by.
He now has the pleasure of listening to
the merry bells, and witnessing the jolly
sleigh riders through small latticed win
dow in large brown stone building in
which sundry persons find safe lodgings at
Carlisle.

Cellulold.-This is the name Of new
base for artificial teeth, which promises to
supercede entirely the vulcanized rubber,
both in durability and adaptation to the
mouth, and can be made to compare exact
ly with the color of the natural gum. This
new discovery is likely to be very trouble
some to the monopoly enjoyed for some
years past by the Dental Good Year Vul-
canite Company" We have just examined
a set OF teeth put up on Celluloid by DIR.
CoNDIT, which favorably compares with
any thing we have ever seen in that line OF
work.

Esq, who is now engaged in gathering up
the material facts for a history of Wood
county, which is to be published and form
a part Of Mr.. HARDEsTY's Atlas soon to
be published. From the sources from
which Mr.. SrANBERY is seeking for infor-
nation and from the outline given us as
alrea ly blocked out for the proposed
work, We have confidence that it will be
comprehensive and replete with facts. He
says he has already discovered that the
county is rich in material for such his
tory, and he begins to realize the magni-
tude of the work before him.

Dissolution OF the Good Tcmplars
Organization,

On Tuesday evening last, February 9th,
1875, the organization known as Perrys-
burg Lodge No. l79, Independent Order Of
Good Tcmplars, ceased to exist, as such, by
the action of a quorum of its members.
This action, though with reluctance, was
taken with view Of organizing a literary
and musical society, and in connection
Herewith library and reading room, hop
ing thereby to accomplish greater amount
of good than could be accomplished through
a secret organization. A resolution was
adopted to retain the carpets, stoves, furni-
ture, &C., with which their hall is well fur
nished, as the property OF the members who
were in good standing at the disbanding of
the order, and to donate the use Of it to the
contemplated society.
There are very pleasant rccollections as
sociated with the names OF the many menu
bers who have passed in and out Of this So
ciety, as also with the Objects aims and ac-
complishments of the same during its pro-
tracted existence ofnearly nine years. Many
yet remain in the village who have been
members, and many who ought to have been
members, while our mind follows many
others into almost every State in the Union.
We produce below the names of those
who were present at the organization intle
Baird House Hall, and appears on the char
ter, which bears date MAY 25th. 1866.

A LARGE OK.

Mr.. T. Seitz, near Carlisle, owns an OK

A pIsAPPoINTMENT.

tdhcS pldCS III
DISAPPOINTMENT
The Young "fellers" of this place had
made arrangements for a grand sleigh ride
with their sweet-hearts, to take place last
Wednesday, but old Probabilities changed
the programme and sent forth a furious
rain, which melted the snow at a rapid rate,
consequently all hands were disappointed.
The girls were pacifed by promised ide
as soon as the weather clerk recorded q
plenty of snow for the purpose.
All the streams in this vicinity were ex-
tremely high, on Wednesday night. Gel
lers were filled with water, bridges seri-
ously damaged, fences carried away, streets
and fields submerged. The extreme cold
weather on Thursday checked the rushing
water, but all thought, even the most chris.
tianized, who ventured out on the streets
that they stood on "slippery places"
DONATION.
Last Monday we had a great shooting
match, the prize being fine three year-old
steer. The winner generously donated
it to the poor of this city-dressed weigh,
200 pounds. -Four hundred and twenty.
five loaves of bread were also distributed
with the meat, all of which was gobbled il
one half-hour by the hungry applicants.
BUSINESS.
Many Merchants and dealers report bu
siness very dali, which report l believe t.
be correct. Think clerks have plenty o
time to crack jokes and peanuts. Som
manufacturing establishments are hurried
with work. Among these favored few is J
b. Farquer, who makes agricultural nipple
ments of all kinds, including cultivator
for working in cotton fields, cotton gin,
&c. He has just shipped a large lot @
Plows, Sc, to South America, another 10

"A subj ect Tor postmortem was dlscoy-
cred in the form of man lying on manure
pile in rear OF the Lava Beds on Sabbath
last. Itis not known how he came there,
or whether he is now buried in that vicini-

frole within him and he had been lain in
his little hot bed to thaw out. A severe
cut over one of his eyes indicated that it

Extraordinary Dlscorerr.

Says the Lincoln (Uol.) News: While
prospecting for lodes in the southwest
ern corner of Burrows Park, recently,
Mr.. Foote accidently discovered the
entrance TO a great cave in Ida noun
tain, which he undertook to explore.
Passing along dark passage for abou t
eighty feet, he reached chamber 1890
feet in sIze, and several feet high, the
walls of which are covered with stall
actites Of varied styles OF beauty, whi Q
the dark granite floor is checkered with
veins Of pure white quartz, giving an
appearance which reminds one of the
Bible account OF the floor Of King Solo :
mons temple. Ia the rear OF this room
is another or inner chamber, access to
which is obtained through small, low
entrance, but within is 'sgrandeur that
defies decay" and "beauty which the
touch OF time makes more beautiful"
the roof being draped with stalactites
similar to, hut more magnificent tnan
Cnose that auorn the first chamber, and
the. floor is covered with brilliant
stalagmites, while the side walls show
q large body OF glittering mineral In a
lode which "crops" on both sides. A
clear, cold spying Of excellent water
gushes from the rock and flows away
through the dark and as yet unexplored
recesses Of This wonderful cavern, but
the sound or roar OF a waterfall in the
distance indicates the course Of this Lit.
| tie stream is not altogether smooth. Bul
there Is yet TO mention q discovery
made In small chamber which opens
lnL0 the one first described, a discovery
which possesses deep interest for the
Heople OF Colorado. 1t was a human
skeleton found on the granite floor, and
lying near IT was a gun and a large
knife bearing the Initials "a. F." A
dim inscription carved in rude charac-
ters on the wall Iuns as follows: "a.
Freeman, 1S07N The supposition is
that Freeman deserted or slrayed from
Plke's exploring party IN 1907, and in
Bendeayoring to reach the Pacific, per-
fsned here. The results OF further ex.
plorations in tnis sublerranean section

Mr.. Boucicault on tho Life-Insurance Man.

We are indebted to MIR. Buocicault for
the last and best anecdote about "the
lile-insurance man." In alluding to
certain comments ON the originality of
his plays, he says: "Another reprOach
is that nave described sthe field OF le-
gitinate comedy Ito which 1 contrib
uted sucn works as London Assur-
ance' and '.0ld Heads and Young
hearts'') to cultivate u low drama, as
the Colleen Bawn and sArran-na-
Pogue;" that owed 1t to my fame. to
maintain tue standard Of my reputation,
and write to the taste Of the times.
don't care q button for prosperity, nor
write TO amuse unborn generations.
Posterity is a bad audience. 1t reminds
me OF what an old Californian replied
when a lite-insuranoe company was first
introduced into San Francisco, and he
was asked to support it's 'Well,' said
he, 'Pye no opinion OF speckelation
whar a man has got to die to realize, So
it is with poets VINO write for posterity."
