JOHN S. DURANT, .
of Westfall township.

The Erie Railroad, as will be
noticed by an article elsewhere, pro-
ADVEBTzqTvq poses to more
vertise the coun-
try it passes through, and solicits
all hotel and boarding house keepers
TO assist in bringing before city
people the advantages of this locali-
ty for the summer outing. The
plan in other places has been very
successful and the number of city
people, notably in Monroe county,
was largely increased tho past sea-
son by liberal and judicious adver-
tising. Even a large and oonspio-
uous sign at the Port Jervis depot
announcing Milford the Della
ware" would no doubt attract the
attention of many travellers who
now pass over the road without
knowing such a place exists. Let
every hotel and boarding house
keeper contribute all in their power
to advertise this valley. Get the
people here and let their distribution
to particular houses come after. If
you make your premises attractive
the city sojourner will find you out
and if the number coming here is
sufficiently increased you will soon
be over run with applications. The
prominent thought should be how
to attract a large number to this
section.

OCTOBER

OF all the year the bluest
Is the bright October sky
While here and there, the 6eeoy olouds
Like snowy mountains lie.
The diamonds on the grass and tree,
A million sparkles throw
And to the cheek the frosty air
Brings forth a ruddy glow.
Here and there, thro' fading woodlands S
So silent, free and wild
Only a few short months ago
The springtime gaily smiled
The leaves from off the naples gold
Lie scattered on the round.
Thus one by one they re falling still
With melancholy sound
love the autumn, when the days
SO bright and still and clear.
Remind me of the happy past.
Those days to mo so dear.
The dark green pines and hemlocks
Like backgrounds to the rest Istand
The oaks and naples, red and gold
Are nestled ON their breast.
Tier and tier the ihouarchs rise
All up the mountain side
Full far away as eye can seq
They stretch out far and wide
O sunset Of the summer days
o calm serene twilight
A fitting emblem of the pence.
We feel through winters night
