The apple crop was exceedingly poor this year.

Several OF our citizens are visiting The Centen-
4al Exhibition at Philadelphia.
The scholars of Oak Grove Seminary claim
nat they have leaned more the first half term
his autumn, than at any previous term.
An elderly ard respected gentleman from this
city returned home from the Centennial minus his
teeth. Sitting down on sofa at his boarding
place, seeking for rest and refreshment,"
he took out his set Of artificial teeth, laid them
upon the sofa, leaned back, and INDUCED in
sweet sleep. The keeper of the boarding
house came along, saw the situation, placed
the teeth in the pocket of ovelcoat near
by, which he supposed belonged to the sleeper,
and kindly covered that individual with the oTer-
coat to prevent him from taking cold. Soon
thereafter the gentleman owning the overcost,
came that way, took the garment and wore it
away, and with it went the teeth. Oar toothless
he discovered the true situation of affairs. Not
being able TO grapple longer with the tough beef
steak at Phila ielphia boarding houses, he lctarn-
ed home to have his jaw repaired.
We notice that during our absence the genial
Eoen F. PIlls5ury has been taking our name in
vain as usual, bestosing good deal Of unneces-
sAry attention upon an individual who, according
10 his show ing, is Of very little importance any
~ay. Tts fighting person in his absence when
he is unable to reply, is characteristic of sneak
and coward. Bat Plllsbury chooses that mode
Of warfare, fighting the enemy at long range, and
has pursued it both in his newspaporia and iii.
tary career. We may say here, Incidentally, that
auy "kind words of his showered upon the pro-
prietors of this paper, are entirely lost. 1t may
he tina; we are incapable Of approaching them.
TO be considered very much of gentleman" by
Piilsbuiy is raher a doubtful compliment, and
any one receiving such an endorsement by Eben
should rise to explain what mean thing he has
done to deserve it.
