GLENMARY, OwEGo, N Y.
 find many things of note among my summer wanderings. but to-day write from the alcoye of the once famous man. sion of the late Col. Mcclellan, the great railroad king and bridge contractor in times of war. This sequestared spot Is situated upon the banks of the beautiful Susquehanna; within it's enclosure are twenty-five acres of land blooming with evergreen. flowers and beautiful graper- les. The carriage roads about the grounds are studded with pebbles symmetrical Tn form and varied in color. This bower of onchantment was erected twenty-three years ago at cost of seventy-fiye thou sand dollars. and near by is another equal In beauty erected by the late Col. White. These grounds years ago were owned by N. F. Willis. one of Americas gifted poets. 4 few rods from where am writ ing arc the aged lilac and rose bushes on the spot where the old home of the poet once stood. and just below is the glen that he named Glenmary in honor of his first wife, and then the old bridge, in the shadow of which he wrote his best poems and letters entitled.

vas kindly shown through the rooms; one attracted my attention, three circular steps down from the sitting room was tho study or library of the great poet. As stepped down and looked out upon the si- lent flowing river, tine placid SusQuehaa- na, upon which he oft had gazed i'll his huppiest hours, strange solennity sur rounded me, filling the room as 1t were with the spirit of the departed l turned from the spot and wended my way to little knoll above where the remains of his child were buried and where he wrote those touching lines upon It's death and burial. This mould Is enclosed by rough picket fence: under the fir trees overhanging the cascade in the glen and just above, Is another mound, similarly enclosed, where the remains of Col. White are reposinX. A bed of leaves and rose bush are the only monuments to mark the spot, but the Glen with its tall fir trees and lovely water falls was fitting for the burial of loved ones or the birth of talent and poetic genius.
 With the evening shudows closing about me will close.

Let Us Have 8 Walk.

The question again presents itself:- Shall We have walk built between New town Street aud Sandy Hook? The BEE h;ls advocated this public improvement for long time and will not gIow weary in doing so. Newtown Is growing and it has become matter of necessity that pe- destrlans have foothold especially dur Ing the winter months when attempting navigation between the two villages. Those who can afford to ride will find it pleasant travelling because the road is now In good condition between the rail road and the street. better than for years past Nr Wa. J. Dick having made it so during the past t NO weeks with his work men and teams. But those who walk find | 1t difficult walking in the road, and We believe that walk can be built if our citizens residing on Newtown street and l In tho Hook would cooperate and, have IL uOne. we believe that they WOull So 1 cooperate were proper measures inaugu- rated to bring the project before them. We think that the funds could be raised l by subscription, fairs, entertainments, etc. What is needed is some one to take the lead. Let some one start paper and secure pledges with the understand ! ing that no subscriber shall be called up- on to pay until sufficient amount has been pledged to be paid. This is worth trial. It would not be much trouble to call meeting and let those interested appoint committees. Two to canvass Newtown and two for Sandy Hook. This suggestion we make trusting that some one will request us to call such meeting naming the date and place of meeting. Perchance some one may have a better plan, if so let them speak olt through our columns. Give us your ideas of this improvement. Those in favor or against 1t shall be heard.

The Party at Mrs. Stuart's.

The party at Mrs. Stuart's Saturday evening given to Miss Bessie L. Austin, was in every respect most enjoyable affair. It was intended to have been a surprise to Miss Austin, but some person published 1t. If this was done to fore- stall the surprise it was playing part for which no apcIogy could be made. About fifteen couples were present who spent the evening playing games of vari- ous kinds. Let me tell you. Mir. Editor. some of the leading features of one of the games that you may not expose yourself, on like occasion, to the chagrin and disappointme mt to which the gentleme en of the party were subjected. The ladies assemble In one room from which the gentlemen are excluded, everything in readiness a lady calls the name of Il gen. tleman who marches in, is seated-about him stand seven young ladies Is blindfolded, required to fold his hands and then asked to choose any number from one to seven. These numbers, he is told, represent the young ladies about , lady whose duty 1t is to go forward and kiss the blindfolded gentleman he Is then requested to guess the name of the lady who kissed him. Imagine yourself. sir, in F. T. B. place after calling out the seven numbers (and seven moro had there been that number represented) re- tiring to place of observation to make room for another to take the vacated chair. to see. instead of the young ladies he fattered himself had condescended to kiss him. young gentleman come out and perform the operation. We all fared alike. An, sir. 1t was a cruel discovery -one we regretted we had made. The closing feature of the evening was the presenting of all autograph album to Miss Austin which contained the autograph of each of the party present. Mir. OCon- nell presented the book prefacing it's presentation by a very neat speech indic- ative of the regrets of the party in the loss of Miss Austin and kind wishes of a pleasant journey and pleasant soiourn among her western friends, saying that among the many Tn the train westward bound there would be no more precious burden than Miss Austin and closed by saying
 "'Tis better to have loved and lost
 Than never to have loved at su.''
 Miss Austin was yory much surprised and responded very neatly, thanking the party for their kind remembrance.
 All left we'll pleased with the evenings entertainment.
 The ladies~and gentlemen of the party would take this opportunity to thank Mir. and Mrs. Stuart for the pleasant evening spent at their house. The young people of the village are greatly indebted to Mrs. Stuart for her persistent efforts to keep the town alive.

Our Fourth Volume.

To-day we issue tho frat number of volume four of the NKwTowN BEE and It gives Us pleasure to say, that in entering the new year of the BEES history we feel that despite the mlshaps and changes, that tho friends of this paper still maiu- tain for 1t the best of good will and wish es, and we say unhesitatingly but for the many assurances from the true and tried friends of tho BEE of their regard, ws would not dare to venture ns wo do now to recover lost ground. The BRR never has suffered financially, for the support has been tho same. It has sui fsrvd In reputation because there was q traIity. The citizens of Newtown desired tho paper to bs neutral and have support only ss a neutral paper. This we have. when In charge of 1t, faithfully endeavor cd to keep It, but tho gentlemen who had charge Ut short intervals suffered articles to appear that gave serious offence. We would not refer to this matter, but for the fact that, by the changes. the impress ion has been made that the paper does not pay, while the true cause has never been made public. Our patrons without exception say that they desire the BEE, as a local paper. strictly neutral. It Is our desire to keep 1t such In the future, and again declare that under no circumstan- ces shall 1t pass from our hands and con- trol so long as health permits Us to labor. In this determination we are sincere, hay ing no earthly motive to induce us to sep arate from the BEE, and so long as our friends feel that they can consistently support the paper we will devote our time and best efforts to serving them. In con- clusion we return our heartfelt thanks to our friends one and all for their words of cheer, and hope to so conduct the BEE that in the future, as in tho past, 1t will be welcome visitor among you.
 Respectfully.

If you're clinging to slats or to ropes, And thinking from these to find rest; Be assured that In vain are your hopes, The Branchville Spring Bed Is the best In the gloom of the dark midnight hour When the tolls of the day are all past, How delightsome that magical power, That locks all our senses at last. But your sleep to be healthful and sweet, And refreshing from toes to your head, Must be free from those terrors that
