Mr. Spencer manufactures all kinds of the higher classes of Optical Instruments,— ■ especial attention being given to Microscopes and Telescopes. Late improvements have been made in microscopic objectives in the whole range of powers; the medium powers bearing the application of very high eye pieces without deterioration; and powers as high as 1-50 having been recently made of the highest excellence. Improvements have also been made in Telescopes of such a character that small instruments have an extraordinary efficiency. An example may be mentioned of a waistcoat-pocket glass, of 3% inches in length when closed, and less than an inch in diameter, which gives a fine view of the satellites of Jupiter, the craters of the moon, &c. Mr. S. devotes his attention mainly to the objectives of the Microscope—making but few mountings, and only those of the first class. He would also call attention to his Gas Microscope, as an instrument essentially new from its superior efficiency. Achromatic Object Glasses for Microscopes. Obj’ve Glasses. Angular Aperture.

REYNOLDS, BARBER & CO, Steel Tempering Works, Auburn, N. Y.INTRODUCTION. 7 INTRODUCTION, In presenting the initial number of the “ Gazetteer and Directory of Madison County ” to the public, the publisher desires to return his sincere thanks to all who have so kindly assisted in obtaining the valuable information which it contains, and without whose aid it would have been impossible to collect, in the brief space of time in which it is essential that all such works should be completed. Especially are our thanks due to the several editors of the Oneida Dispatch, Democratic Union, Oneida ; Canastota Herald; Cazenovia Republican ; Madison Observer, Morrisville; Democratic Volunteer and Democratic Republican, Hamilton; for the uniform kindness which has been evinced in calling public attention to the author’s efforts; and to them and the following persons, viz: L. S. Loomis, of Cazenovia, and J. B. Wells, of DeRuyter, School Commissioners; Nathan Brownell, County Clerk and L. P. Clark, Esq., of Morrisville; J. J. L. Baker, of Chittenango; H. J. Weed, Dr. Alvin Foord, Silas L. Loomis and Samuel Thomas, of Cazenovia; Isaac N. Smith, of DeRuyter; Hon. J. Clark and Henry Kieth, of Brookfield ; Hon. Gerrit Smith and A. Raymond, of Peterboro; Hon. Loring Fowler and Prof. Chas. A. Spencer, A. M., of Canastota; Joseph Bruce, of Lenox; Mrs. A. J. Lower, of Bridgeport; and Prof. Speare, of Madison University, Hamilton; for essential aid in furnishing material for the work. Many others have kindly volunteered their aid, to all of whom we return sincere thanks.s INTRODUCTION. The following works have also been consulted in its preparation : French’s admirable “ Gazetteer of the State of New York;” “Trans-actions of the State Agricultural Society ;” “ Hotchkin’s History of the Presbyterian Church in Western New York;” “Historical Collections of the State of New York,” and the Census Report of 1865. That errors may have occurred in so great a number of names and dates as are here given, is probable, and that names have been omitted that should have been inserted is quite certain. We can only say that we have exercised more than ordinary diligence and care in this difficult and complicated feature of book-making. To such as feel aggrieved in consequence of error or omission, we beg pardon, and ask the indulgence of the reader in marking such as had been observed in the subsequent reading of the proofs, and which are noted in the Errata, following the Introduction. It is also suggested that our patrons observe and become familiar with the explanations at the commencement of the Directory. The Map of the County was engraved with great care by Messrs. “Weed, Parsons & Co.,” of Albany, and, it is believed, will prove a valuable acquisition to the work. The various new lines of. Railroad were located by the engineers employed in the surveys. The Advertisers represent some of the leading business men and firms of this and adjoining counties, and we most cheerfully commend them all to the patronage of those under whose observa-ation these pages may come. With thanks to friends generally, we leave our work to secure the favor which earnest endeavor ever wins from a discriminating business public. HAMILTON CHILD.ERRATA. 9 ERE AT A. ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS. GAZETTEER. Brookfield.—Since the sketch of Brookfield was printed, we have received some additional items of interest:— Capt. Brown, the first settler, removed from Connecticut, with an ox team, performing the journey in twenty-one days. He had ten daughters, each six feet in height.— Stephen Hoxie, the first supervisor, was also the first man elected to the Legislature from this town. He died m 1839, aged 101 years and four months. Elisha Johnson built the first frame house in the town, in 1803, and drew the lumber from near the Unadilla River, a distance of ten miles. The first church was organized in 1804, by Rev. Nathaniel Marsh ; his son, Samuel Marsh, kept the first store, on the hill, southeast of N. Brookfield, in 1796. He was subsequently elected County Judge. He was unsuccessful in business, became deeply involved, and was imprisoned for debt in Whitestown Jail, where he committed suicide by cutting his throat. Joseph Clark, after whom Clark-ville was named, was the first postmaster, and held the office for thirty years; he was justice of the peace twenty years, and supervisor ten years. Leonardsville contains one of the largest horse-rake manufactories in the State, besides several other manufactories. This place is noted for being the place where the first horse-rake was made, and also where the first fork drawn by machinery was made. The following incident shows some of the trials of the early settlers and their exciting contests with the denizens of the forests. Thomas Keith, an early settler, went to the pen one morning, and found a huge bear, which had killed his hog and partly devoured it. Mr. K. immediately attacked the bear with the only weapon he had, a small knife, and after a severe contest, killed the beast and saved a part of his pork. Lebanon.— Randallsville p. o. has recently been established at Smith's Valley, in the east part of the town, on the Chenango River. Sullivan.—On page 59, “Bolivar is a hamlet on the Canal, west of the center,” should have been added. DIRECTORY.

The undersigned who is the one who first introduced the Seneca Raspberry to the public, will now be prepared to furnish No. One First Class Plants, of Senecas and Davison’s Thornless, which are to be the leading Raspberries and should go together. The THORNLESS is early, ripens a trifle earlier than the Doolittle ; the SENECA ripens about two weeks later than THORNLESS, which makes the season complete in the berry line. All wishing good, first-class plants of these two valuable berries, can rely on me for them, as I will send out no poor plants. Send stamp and get my prices, when issued next fall. My soil enables me to grow plants equal to any grown in the country, and they are pronounced No. One, by reliable dealers. Yours Truly, WARREN WIGHT, Waterloo, Seneca Co., N. Y. P.

Y., so long noted for their medicinal qualities, is a delightful resort for those in search of health or recreation. The Hotel has been refitted and furnished with all the modern improvements, and the Cottages, in a beautiful grove upon the opposite side of Chittenango Creek, afford facilities for health and recreation seldom equaled. Dr. Backus, the proprietor, is determined to spare no pains to give satisfaction to his patrons. The beautiful drives, water-falls, and the facilities for boating and fishing, must be enjoyed to be appreciated. For particulars see the Doctor’s advertisement on pages 218 and 219. Campbell’s Hotel and Eating House, known as the Central Hotel, Canastota, is a good place for a hungry man to go, for the proprietor Mr. Campbell will be sure to have something that will suit his taste, at all hours and at all seasons. Alex, is a good fellow and bound to make friends. See card, page 222. H. C. Priest, of Georgetown, Madison Co., N. Y., keeps on hand a large stock of saws of every description, which he will sell at the lowest living prices. Saws repaired in the best manner, and all work warranted. See card, page 222. The Democratic Union, published by W. H. Baker, Oneida, Madison Co., N. Y., has a very large circulation, and correspondents in every town in the County, who report all local matters of interest in their localities. In politics, it is decidedly Democratic, and those who enjoy a mental pabulum of that kind, will find somethin g to their taste in every number. An extensive Job office is connected with the establishment, where all work is executed in good style and at reasonable rates. See card, page 224. W. B. Downer, of Cazenovia, has a delightful -situation on the shore of the lake, where he is prepared to take in strangers and all pleasure seekers, and send them out with boats, fishing tackle, and everything else necessary for their happiness. Pic-nic parties and others will do well to give him a call. His card will be found on page 226. Howe’s Never-Failing Ague Cure and Tonic Bitters, and Howe’s Concentrated Syrup, are prepared under the personal supervision of Dr. C. B. Howe, the proprietor, at Seneca Falls, N. Y., for ague and fever, and all periodic diseases, rheumatism, paralysis, etc. The “Ague Cure ” has produced wonderful cures. The “ Syrup,” for the blood, liver, skin, digestive and uterine organs, has cured many cases of scrofula, cancer, tumors, goiter, salt rheum, scaldhead, and many other diseases too numerous to mention in this place. See card, page 20. Dodge & Lord, manufacturers of Me-lodeons and Reed Organs, at Ithaca, N. Y., were formerly connected with Syracuse manufactories. They have since moved their business where lumber is cheap, and expenses less than in the larger cities, like New York, Boston, Albany or Syracuse. The styles of their organs are particularly their own, possessing all modern improvements, and some unknown to other manufacturers. They have found market for their instruments in every county of the State, and in Northern Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and have an increasing trade with the West, in all of which places they are brought into successful competition with the first Eastern manufacturers. They are both practical men, and have secured workmen of long experience and tried abilities. Situated midway between the Erie and N. Y. C. railroads, they can ship conveniently to all parts of the country. Mr. A. M. Williams, No. 25 Warren street, Syracuse, is agent for Onondaga county. See card, page 14. Warren Wiglit,Propagator and dealer in the celebrated Seneca Black Cap and Davison’s Thornless Raspberries, Grape Vines, Strawberries, and other small fruits, at Waterloo, Seneca Co., publishes a card on page 14. His experience in the business is large, and his soil is excellent, probably no better can be found in the State for the purpose he uses it. We advise our friends to peruse his advertisement and purchase their supplies of him. He uses great care in packing for shipment, and sends out none but first-class plants. It would do no harm to address him for a circular, and might be the means of affording you an abundance of his delicious fruits. The Reynold’s Steel Tempering Works, Reynolds, Barber & Co., Pro rietors, at Auburn, are largely engaged in the manufacture of Reaper and Mower Knives, Plane Irons, Chisels, &c. The process by which they temper steel is a peculiar one, and, as patented by Mr. Reynolds, is the result of over forty years labor. This gentleman always worked on the plan that tempering steel was simply changing it from a fibrous to a granular state. He certainly has succeeded in producing a finer granulation (temper) than has ever before been produced. Messrs. Reynolds, Barber & Co. control the patents for these processes, and are applying them successfully in all their manufactures.— Their establishment is capable of turning out an immense amount of work, yet their orders are now, and have been for some months, accumulating far in advance of their present ability to supply; a circumstance which they will not long allow to be the case. We predict that the time is not far distant when all Mower and Reaper Factories and farmers will use their improved sections. See their advertisement on page 6, fronting the Introduction.PUBLISHERS NOTICES. Mothers, Read This!—So says Dr. G. T. Taft & Co., of Seneca Falls. In their advertisement on page 20, they desire to inform you of the wonderful qualities of their u Oriental Syrup,” for children. We have heard of many cases where this valuable medicine has given great relief. They are also proprietors or “ Rosenberger’s Balm of Gilead Ointment,” for old sores, ulcers, rheumatism, burns, chilblains, piles, &c.. and for galls, or wounds on horses, it is unsurpassed. j Eugene Eastman, Carriage Maker, i at Canastota, employs only first class work-! men and uses the best oi timber and iron i in the manufacture of his work. We i cheerfully recommend those in want of a i durable and elegantly made carriage, of i any kind, to select from his stock. As his ; work is intended for a home market, he will spare no efforts to give entire satisfaction to his customers. See card, page 108. Hayden Brothers, proprietors of ; the Retail Woolen Mills, at Port Byron, ! have long been celebrated as being manufacturers of desirable and reliable goods. ! The establishment was started in 1824 as a i small custom mill. Since then the greatly 1 increased business has called for extensive additions and improvements, which have been made; and to-day their cloth is known and worn in every county in the State and every State in the Union. They use only the best qualities of wool, entirely free from waste or shoddy, and employ only experienced and careful workmen, who strive I to maintain the reputation their goods I have ever borne among their retail customers. A few months since they opened a store at No. 29 Warren street, Syracuse, where they keep full lines of all goods of their manufacture. Farmers and mechanics of Madison county, as wTell as business men generally, can make good bargains by calling at the store, wdiere Mr. J. W. Gates, the manager, will be pleased to give them good goods at advantageous terms. See card, colored page 150. Tli© National Hotel, Oneida, N.

Bramer & Pierce, manufacturers of the celebrated Young Warrior Mower, at Fabius, Onondaga Co., are also quite extensively engaged in the manufacture of other agricultural implements. The Mower, however, is their speciality, and we are pleased to know that it is a general favorite with those farmers who have used it. At several mowing machine trials, where it was placed in competition with several other machines, the Young Warrior has been declared by the judges as being superior to others ; it has very light draft and does its work well.

M., Optician, at Canastota, publishes an advertisement on colored page 1. It may not be generally known, yet it is a fact, that the discoveries and inventions of Mr. (Spencer, have entirely revolutionized the science of Optics. Under his powerful lenses much that has heretofore been admitted as truth, has been clearly shown to have been far from the truth. Interested optical instrument makers in Europe, who had not yet been able to produce Microscopic instruments of such great powers, were pleased to advance the idea that the improvements were impracticable and valueless for the study of natural sciences; but the great naturalists of the world were not fully satisfied with their statements, and after sufficient trials by some of the wisest savans in the old world, as well as the new, the old theory has been quashed, and today Mr. Spencer’s reputation stands unrivaled. Without entering into any kind of details, we advise all persons who contemplate purchasing a telescope or microscope to consult Mr. Spencer.MADISON COUNTY BUSINESS DIRECTORY. 1 — '"1 19 MANFORD J.

Musical,—Music is necessary everywhere, We quote with pleasure the following well-deserved notice of Redington & Howe—a house we have known for several years as of unimpeachable honor and the best business facilities. “ The Immense Musical Establishment op Redington and Howe.—The enterprising -wholesale Music Dealers of our city, Messrs. Redington & Howe, have just closed a most successful business year. Their sales have been immense—something entirely unparalleled in the history of the music trade in Central New York. They have deserved their increasing success. Their store is the most magnificent emporium between New York and Chicago. Their stoc* would supply a dozen ordinary city music stores. They are the only strictly wholesale music house in the State, outside of New York city. They have even some advantages over the Metropolitan houses. Our Syracuse wholesale store keeps constantly on hand the Pianos, Organs and Melodeons of several different makers, (a total of eighteen, with over fifty different varieties,) while New York Houses keep only maker’s instruments of each kind. Besides, business expenses in -Syracuse are much less than in New York; consequently, Redington & Howe are diverting much wholesale trade from New York and building up for themselves a mammoth business in supplying dealers. The question is sometimes asked, whether other dealers cannot buy in New York as cheaply as Redington & Howe. The dealers have thoroughly satisfied themselves that they cannot, for there is not a house in Central New York that will agree to take the great quantities of musical goods that Redington & Howe buy. Consequently, others have to buy on a higher tariff. It is on the same principal that Stewart of New York forced a neighboring house to withdraw. He could sell at a profit cheaper than his competitor could buy. Messrs. Redington & Howe have similar purchasing facilities. Indeed, they can be justly called the “ Stewarts” of the music trade in Central New York. We are glad, also, to notice that Redington & Howe do a jirst-class business in the Pianos, Organs and Melodeons they furnish. Their principal stock is composed of first-grade instruments. These they advertise and recommend, because they know their reliability. This house can furnish second-class instruments cheaper than any other establishment in Central New York (for the reason of buying cheaper), so that if purchasers want a low priced instrument, Redington & Howe’s is the place to procure it. We advise our readers not to buy] any instrument without first seeing or writing to Redington & Howe. They will also tell honestly the quality of the goods. Another point: this house is financially responsible for all they recommend. Besides having the largest capital in the music business in Central New York, they are backed by as much more as they choose to call upon. For everything in the musical line, go to Redington & Howe, No. 2 Wieting Block, Syracuse.” See their advertisements on the map and * the inside page of first cover.20 MADISON COUNTY BUSINESS DIRECTORY. MOTHERS! READ THIS. Are your children restless, irritable, wakeful, feverish ? Are they cutting teeth ? Are the gums red and painful ? Have they diarrhoea ? Have they fits or spasms ? If so, USE THE ORIENTAL SYRUP. It is the only Syrup or Cordial, or CHILD MEDICINE in market free from Opium, Morphine, or Paragoric. These you can’t give: or, at least, you ought not to. They destroy the functions of the BRAIN; the child grows pale; its eyes grow wild; its flesh becomes soft; it loses its mind ; it becomes an Idiot. Mothers, these are facts ! To be convinced' try it. The Oriental Syrup contains NONE of those poisons. It is perfectly harmless. It is soothing—quieting. The child sleeps sweetly, and awakes refreshed and lively. The teeth penetrate the gums without pain. It is good for aged and nervous people. TRY IT. DR. G. T. TAFT & CO., Proprietors, Seneca Falls, N, Y. THE BALM OF GILEAD!

Rosenberger’s Balm of Gilead Ointment Is composed of Oils and Balsams from trees and shrubs, and for all the diseases referred to by Dr. Cooper, we warrant it almost a specific.

THIS COUNTY was formed from Chenango, March 21* 1S06, and named in honor of President Madison. In 1836 it was enlarged, by annexing that part of Stockbridge east of Oneida Creek. It is situated in the central part of the State; is centrally distant 98 miles from Albany, and contains an area of 670 square miles. The surface, in the extreme northern part, is low, level and | swampy, but in the central and southern parts, is hilly; constifrut-' ing a portion of the general system of highlands which occupy central New York. The hills, generally, have rounded outlines, and steep declivities; their highest summits ranging from 500 to 800 feet above the valleys, and from 900 to 1,200 feet above tide. I The highlands, which are divided into separate ridges by a series of valleys extending north and south, form the watershed between the Susquehanna River and Oneida Lake. Upon the north slope, the principal streams are Chittenango Creek, (meaning “ waters divide and run north,”) forming a part of the west boundary of the County ; Oneida Creek, forming a part of the east boundary, and the Canaseraga, (Big Elkshorn,) Canastota {Kaneiota, meaning, “ Big Pine,”) and Cowaselon (meaning, “Weeping Squaw,”) I Creeks. The principal streams flowing south are Unadilla River, | upon the east border, Beaver Creek, Chenango (meaning, “waters ! divide and run south,”) River, and its branches, Otselic (meaning, I “ Capfull,”) Creek, Tioughnioga River, Oneida Lake, forming the | north boundary, and Owahgena, or Cazenovia Lake, near the center I of the west border, are the principal bodies of water. The latter, | one of the most beautiful lakes in the State, is four miles long, i 900 feet above tide, and is surrounded by gradually sloping hillsides. The lowest rocks of the County, outcropping along Oneida Lake, belong to the Clinton group. The red iron ore peculiar to . this group, is found to a limited extent, but not in sufficient quan-22 MADISON COUNTY. tities to render mining profitable. Next above tMs successively, ; appear the Niagara and Onondaga groups, underlying the whole } swampy region. The red shales form1 the surface rock south of \ the swamp, and Joeds of gypsum extend along the base of the hills, f These beds are extensively quarried, in some sections-, and furnish j an excellent quality of plaster. Upon the north declivities cf the \ hills successively appear the water limestone, Pentameros limestone, J Oriskany sandstone, and Onondaga limestone. From these groups \ I are obtained an abundance of waterlime, quicklime ami building ! stone; all of excellent quality. Next above appear the Slarcellus j and Hamilton shales, covering more than one half of the entire { surface of the County. The Tully limestone, Genesee slate and: l Ithaca groups, are found, to some extent, covering the tops of the • southern hills. A large share of the County is covered deep with' 1 drift deposits. } The soil upon the flat lands of the north, is generally of red' > clay, with great quantities of muck and marl in the swampy re-gions. Upon the northern declivities of the hills, the soil is a grav- < elly loam, intermixed with lime and plaster, and is very productive. ] Further south, the soil upon the hills is a clayey, gravelly and ’ shaly loam, best adapted to pasturage; and in the valleys, a gravel- j ly loam and alluvium. Stock raising and dairying are the principal j ; pursuits of the people. Hops are cultivated extensively through- ! j -out the County. Manufactures are limited, and confined chiefly to . ,a few villages. The County seat is located at Morrisville. The first Courts were held, alternately, at the schoolhouse near David Barnard’s, in Sullivan, (now Lenox,) and at the schoolhouse, in the village of Hamilton. The first officers were the following:—Peter Smith, First Judge ; Sylvanus Smalley, Edward Green, Elisha Payne and David Cook, Associate Judges; Asa B. Sizer, County Clerk; Jeremiah i Whipple, Sheriff; and Thomas H. Hubbard, Surrogate. In 1810 Cazenovia was selected as the site of the County buildings, and Col. John Lincklaen and Capt. Jackson were appointed to superintend the erection of a Court House. A brick building was erected, I ;and the first Court was held in it in January 1812. In 1817, the County seat was removed to Morrisville, and the first Court was ! held there October 7, 1817. A new Court House was erected in 1847, and burned in October 1865, during the session of Court. It was rebuilt in 1866. It is a two story wooden building, containing a very fine court room, with gallery, jury rooms, and library. It is pleasantly situated, on a small park, fronting on the main street. In the park as a beautiful fountain and reservoir, thirty feet in diameter, and seven deep, affording an abundant supply of water in case of fire.

Pay son, County Treasurer. The County Poor House is located upon a farm of 159 acres, in the town of Eaton, five miles south-east of Morrisville. The following statistics respecting it are taken from the annual report of the Superintendents of the Poor, for the year 1867. The total expense for the year ending November 15, 1867, was $17,774.96. The stock upon the County House Farm consists of one span of horses, one yoke of oxen, 16 milch cows, 17 fat cattle, 28 sheep, and 4 fat hogs. The products of the farm were as follows :— 60 tons of hay, 100 bushels of oats, 250 bushels of corn, 450 bushels of potatoes, 35 bushels of beans, 10 bushels onions, 14 bushels of peas, aud a large supply of garden vegetables.

September 25, 1866, it was changed to WALDRON’S DEMOCRATIC VOLUNTEER, and is now published at Hamilton, by G. R. Waldron & Son. The Circular is a weekly paper, published by the Oneida Community. Nearly all the south half of this County belonged to the tract known as the “Chenango Twenty Townsa tract ceded by the Indians of the State, in a treaty made with Gov. George Clinton, at , Fort Schuyler, September 22, 1788. These towns were originally designated by numbers. Those embraced in Madison County are Nelson, Eaton, Madison, Hamilton, Lebanon and Georgetown, formerly numbered respectively, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and Brookfield, embracing 19 and 20. A strip lying between this tract and the Military Tract, including De Ruyter and the greater part of Cazenovia, was embraced in the Lincklaen purchase. The Oneida Indian Reservation originally embraced all the north part of the County, but was subsequently divided into several large tracts. The “ New Petersburgh Tract,” or purchase of Peter Smith, embraced fifty thousand acres, including nearly all of Smithfield and Fenner, the north part of Cazenovia, and a strip, one mile wide, across the28 MADISON COUNTY. south part of Stockbridge. The remainder of Stockbridge was included in the Reservation of the Stockbridge Indians. Lenox and Sullivan constituted the northwest portion of the Oneida Indian Reservation. The first settlements of this County were made by squatters upon the Oneida Reservation, in 1770. The permanent settlements were commenced about 1795, by immigrants, chiefly from the New England States, who have left an indelible stamp upon the County, of their industry, intelligence and morality. The great lines of travel, from the Hudson to the Niagara, passed either north or south of the territory embraced in Madison County, and to this fact, perhaps, may be attributed its exemption from the horrors of war, which disturbed the more southern and adjoining counties. One incident, prominent among revolutionary events, and probably the leading cause to the first settlement of the County, may with propriety be recorded among the local interests of the County. In the fall of 1780, about 800 men were collected in the vicinity of Montreal, with all possible speed and secrecy; embarked without delay upon batteaux that were in readiness for them; they passed up the river to Lake Ontario, through the lake, up the Oswego River, through the Oneida branch to Oneida Lake, thence a few miles up Chittenango Creek, where they concealed their boats and stores, and started on a marauding expedition. While Col’s Johnston and Butler were organizing this force in Canada, Bran$ had collected the Indians at Tioga Point, and ascending the Susquehanna to Unadilla, he united his force with that of Col’s. Johnston and Butler, ar.d the whole army moved to Schoharie. Stains of blood and fire marked the progress of the invading foe. Yielding to the same fiendish spirit, they proceeded to the valley of the Mohawk, plundering and burning, till overcome with fatigue, and overburthened with plunder, they halted at a place called Kloeks-field, on the East Canada Creek. As soon as the news of this irruption reached the American headquarters, General Robert Van Rensselaer went in pursuit of the foe, with a force of 1,500 men. Advancing upon the south side of the river, he reached the ford west of St. Johnsville, which was guarded by forty men, but did not advance until the guard was withdrawn. On the afternoon of the next day, the force came up with the British troops and Indians, who fled, intending to reach their boats by the shortest route. Gen. Van Rensselaer pursued them as far as Herkimer, then sent an express to Fort Schuyler, (Rome,) ordering Captain Vrooman, with a strong detachment, to hasten forward to Chittenango Creek and destroy the enemies boats and stores. Capt. Vrooman surprised the guard left in charge of the boats, made them prisoners, and sunk all of the boats but two. Having accomplished their work, Vrooman and his party were in turn surprised by the arrivalMADISON COUNTY. 29 of Butler’s Bangers and Indians, and the whole party made prisoners, without firing a gun. The British were much irritated at the discovery of their boats sunk, and their stores destroyed. They succeeded, however, in raising a sufficient number of boats to make their escape. While the regular troops were making the necessary arrangements for their embarkation, their more savage allies amused themselves by the wanton massacre of three prisoners and the torture of the fourth. For many years a lofty pine tree stood near the place of Vrooman’s capture, memorable as the “ Turtle Tree” from the circumstance of the rude outline of a turtle been engraved upon the trunk. This symbol indicated a victory and torture of prisoners. An importance was attached to the latter incident, which caused the Indians, for many years, to make an annual pilgrimage to the “Turtle Tree.” The prisoner was bound at the knees and ankles, and compelled to run the gauntlet between two files of Indians, who were armed with clubs and other weapons, ready and anxious to give their victim a blow. They promised him life and honor if he should reach the end of the line without serious injury. The prisoner made nine leaps along the line, of such astonishing length, that, for the moment, the savages withheld the blows they seemed ready to inflict; but at the tenth leap he was struck down, cruelly beaten, and afterwards burned. Each leap of the prisoner was marked, and for many years the Indians were accustomed to assemble at this spot, and attempt, unbound, to equal the leaps of the unfortunate prisoner, but without success. Authorities differ as to the precise spot upon which this British force landed, but the early settlers of Sullivan found portions of muskets, knives, hatchets and bullets, in the vicinity, and fragments of boats among the driftwood along the shore. A rumor long prevailed that in the hurry of escape, Johnston lost his military chest, containing a large amount of specie, and search was made for the lost treasure, but without success. The soldiers composing Capt. Vrooman’s detachment, sent from Fort Schuyler, were mostly Dutchmen from the Mohawk settlements ; a part of them lived to reach their homes, after a long captivity. They remembered their early expedition, the rich lands of the Oneida, the streams abounding in fish, and the forests in game. Among these hardy pioneers was Capt. Seber, who, in March 1790, with nine families, started from their first homes upon the Mohawk, to visit and people the region of their battle ground, now forming the north part of Madison County. In this pioneer band were included the Pickards, Van Slykes and Paisleys, names familiar in the early history of the County. Beaching the flats of the Canaseraga,' they were pleased with its appearance, and selecting farms contiguous to each other, commenced to clear the land, and put in the seed for the future harvest. The season was propi-30 MADISON COUNTY. tious, and a bountiful harvest rewarded the labors of these first settlers. The Oneida Indians were greatly irritated at the intrusion of these pale faces upon their rightful possessions, and watched Capt. Seber and his party with a jealous eye. Their ill will increased, and their grievances at length became intolerable. By the advice of their missionary, they submitted their grievances to the Governor, whose duty it was to see that justice was meted out to all within his dominions. The result was, that the settlers were ordered to remove from the lands of the Oneidas. They pertinaciously refused to obey the order, and Col. Colbraith, Sheriff of Montgomery County, was sent with an armed force of sixty men to dislodge them. Unawed by the power and authority of the Sheriff, they still clung to their cabins, absolutely refusing to remove. Finding all commands and entreaties of no avail, the Sheriff ordered all movable articles to be removed from their cabins, and then set them on fire, leaving the settlers to witness, in sullen silence, the destruction of their houses, and the blasting of their hopes of a permanent home in this goodly land. The Indians having accomplished their object, now came forward and directed the settlers to the grounds near the present village of Chittenango, where they were permitted to settle, and, unmolested, to hunt and fish until the'earth should again yield her fruits for their sustenance. Capt. Seber and a few others removed afterwards to the vicinity of Clockville, in the town of Lenox. When this first attempt was made to form a settlement in this region, no road had been opened for wagons. An Indian trail extended from the villages of the Oneidas to the cabins of the Onondagas, nearly on the line of the Seneca turnpike, to Chittenango, thence to “ Deep Spring,” on the County line. The first attempt to make a road through the County was by William Wadsworth, from Connecticut, on his way to the “ Genesee Country.” He left his home in June 1790, with an ox team and cart, two or three hired men, and a favorite colored woman, Jenny, who was for a long time the only one of her race in that region. West of Whitesboro, Mr. Wadsworth was obliged to cut away logs, build causeways through the sloughs, ford streams, and, at Cayuga Lake, construct a pontoon of two Indian canoes lashed together, and covered with poles. The State afterwards made an appropriation for the improvement of this road, and in 1800, the “ Seneca Turnpike Company” was empowered to improve the old State road, from Utica to Canandaigua. During the first season it was opened to the width of six rods, as far as Vernon, and the next season to Chittenango. Another road was opened at an early day from Peterboro to Cherry Valley, greatly increasing the facilities of travel, and offering additional inducements to settle this delightful region. Emigrants from the Mohawk Valley began at this time to settle upon lands now comprised in the. towns of MADISON CO UNTY. 31 Lenox and Sullivan. The soil was fertile, and yielded abundant harvests to reward the labor of those pioneers of the forest. There was neither grist-mill or saw-mill in this region till 1794, when they were erected by Col. John Lincklaen, in Cazenovia. Previous to this the inhabitants traveled with their grists to New Hartford or Manlius. From this time, roads were multiplied and improved; the facilities of travel increased, and the County rapidly increased in wealth and population. To facilitate the transportation of farm products to the canal and railroad, plank roads, for a time, were rapidly extended. In 1848 a plank road was constructed from Hamilton to Utica, and in 1850, another connecting Hamilton, Madison and Oriskany. The same year Georgetown and Pecks-port were connected by a road passing through Eaton and Leeville. In 1851, a plank road was laid from Canastota to Morrisville, and another soon after from Peterboro to Clark-ville. One of the principal plank roads of the County extended from De Ruyter, through Cazenovia and Chittenango, to Oneida Lake. It was completed in 1848, at a cost of $21,-000, more than $10,000 of which was expended in grading.— This road passed through a very difficult valley, in some places assuming the character of a gorge, and overcame an elevation of 800 feet, by a gradual ascent, in no place more than* six feet in one hundred. The old road required an aggregate ascent of about 1600 feet. This road rendered available a valuable water power, which before was inaccessible. Many of these roads have been macadamized since the plank was worn out. One of the best in the County is from Canastota to Peterboro; another from Chittenango depot to Cazenovia. The Madison County Agricultural Society was formed in September 1841. J. D. Ledyard, of Cazenovia, was chosen President; Elijah Morse, of Eaton, H. G. Warner, of Sullivan, J. H. Dunbar, of East Hamilton, Vice Presidents; Alexander Krumbhaer, of Cazenovia, and A. S. Sloan, of Eaton, Secretaries. For several years the Society held annual Fairs at various points in the County, and the occasions were of general interest to those immediately concerned in their management, and to the spectators generally. Among those who have at different times been interested in introducing improved breeds of stock, we find recorded the following: Messrs. Whitman and Douglass introduced a Devon bull into the town of Sullivan, about the year 1825, and in 1843, S. A. Gilbert, of East Hamilton, raised a bull calf that became generally known as the “Ackly Bull,” and was subsequently owned by D. D. Palmer, of Brookfield. The weight of this animal was nearly two thousand pounds. A yoke of steers, the progeny of this bull, were exhibited at the County Fair in 1851, by H. P. Potter, of East Hamilton, which weighed 3,360 pounds. Mr. Beaumont, of 32 MADISON COUNTY. Eaton, brought into the County a thorough bred Durham bull, and a few heifers, which contributed largely to the improvement of the stock of the County. Sylvester Burchard, of Madison, and David Osgood, of Hamilton, may be honorably mentioned in this connection; as also Sanford P. Chapman, of Lenox, who at one time owned a very valuable herd of short-horn stock. In 1810, Curtis Hoppin brought into the town of Lebanon about two hundred sheep, of mixed breeds, among which were coarse wooled, fine wooled, and a few South-down bucks and ewes. This may be considered the commencement of sheep raising in the County with a view to profit; the farmers selected from his flocks, and commenced sheep breeding. In 1823, Mr. Hoppin introduced a few full blooded Merino sheep, which in due season gave character and value to the growing flocks. John B. Yates, Esq., of Chittenango, deserves honorable mention for his efforts in improving the breed of horses in the County. He introduced “ Ethiop” and “ Ham-bletonian,” and other excellent horses. “ Messenger” was brought into the County by Henry and George Ehle, of Sullivan. Messrs. Ackley, of Hamilton, introduced the “Morgan” horse from Vermont. For several years the existence of the Agricultural Society inspired a healthy rivalry on the part of the farmers and stock breeders of the County, but for some reason, unknown to the writer of this, the Society has become a defunct institution. In preparing this brief historical sketch, we have had access to no reliable statistics from which we could ascertain the number of men this County furnished for the late war, or the number whose lives were offered as a sacrifice upon the altar of our common country, that the blessings handed down to us by our fathers might be preserved. That she responded cheerfully to the several calls, and performed her part in preserving the Government, whose foundation w'as cemented by the blood of our fathers, there is abundant evidence. The battle fields and prison pens of the South will bear witness that Madison was not behind her sister counties in her devotion to loyalty and justice. Though shafts of marble and granite may arise to perpetuate the memory of her fallen heroes, the most enduring monument is found in the hearts of a grateful people, whose land has been freed from treason and slavery.! | i I I GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 33 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. BROOKFIELD was formed from Paris, March 5, 1795; and Columbus, Chenango Co., was taken off in 1805. It lies in the south-east corner of the County. Its surface is hilly, broken by the valley of the Unadilla River, which forms the east boundary, and that of Beaver Creek, which flows through, near fhe center. The east branch of the Chenango flows through the north-west part. Several smaller streams take their rise in the town. The soil is a gravelly loam, well adapted to grazing. Clarkville, (Brookfield p. o.) named from Hon. Joseph Clark, formerly State Senator, was incorporated April 5, 1834, and contains two churches, a tannery, and about 600 inhabitants. Leonardsville, ( p. v.) contains a church, a bank, a large wagon shop, and about 400 inhabitants. North Brookfield, ( p. v.) contains about 300 inhabitants, a gristmill, sawmill and furnace. South Brookfield ( p. o.) is a hamlet, and De Lancy, named from John De Lancy, is a post office. Babcock’s Mills contains a sawmill, grist-mill, and a manufactory of horse-rakes. “The Brookfield Agricultural Society,” and “The Brookfield Union Agricultural Society,” are both flourishing, and hold Pairs every year. The first settlement was made by Capt. Daniel Brown, from Connecticut, in 1791. Capt. Brown had heard the wonderful accounts of the “far West,” which was then in central New York, and determined to settle with his family in that promised land, though he was at the advanced age of sixty-six. For some reason unknown, he took a southern route, with the intention of settling in the Genesee Valley. In June, Mr. B., with a few friends whom he had induced to accompany him, reached the house of John Carr, on the east bank of the Unadilla River. Here he rested, and was 34 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. so pleased with the beauty of the scenery, the fertility of the soil, and the delightful climate, that he determined to abandon the Genesee and settle on the west bank of the Unadilla, some distance above Carr’s residence. Lot number 82, in the 19th township, was selected as the place for their first labors. The birthday of our nation was selected as the one on which the germ of the new settlement should be planted ; and as the first rays of the sun gilded the tree tops on that morning, Mr. Brown’s axe raised the first echoes of the woodman’s song. Other members of his party settled near, and several clearings were made before autumn. The necessary arrangements of a settlement having been made, all the members of the party, except Mr. B. and his family, returned to their eastern homes for the winter. The winter was very severe, and taxed the ingenuity of Brown to its utmost to secure the wild deer for food, and gather fodder for the few cattle he possessed. His cattle were mainly supported by browsing in the woods, with some coarse hay cut on the beaver meadow, and drawn home on hurdles “ attached to the tails of the oxen.” In 1792, a company of Seventh Day Baptists, from Rhode Island and Connecticut, purchased 13 lots in the 19th township, at a cost of about fifty cents an acre. Mr. B. paid the same for his land. Larger tracts were soon placed under the control of individuals, and we find that the entire townships of No. 18 and No. 20, with the unsold portions of No. 19, were sold to M. Myers, J. Sanger and John I. Morgan, for 3s. Id. and 3s. 3d. an acre. The custom of granting leases for one, two or three lives, the rent payable in Albany, in products of the soil, was entailed upon a portion of these larger tracts. John and Elias Button, Lawton Palmer, Samuel H. Burdick, Samuel Billings, David Maine, Stephen Collins, Thomas and James Rogers, and Paul and Perry Maxon, settled in the town in 1792. John Button built the first grist mill in 1792, and Reuben Leonard opened the first store in 1801. The first school was taught by Asa Carrier, in the winter of 1796. The first town meeting was held at the house of Capt. Daniel Brown, April 7, 1795, at which Elisha Burdick was chosen Town Clerk; Stephen Hoxie, Esq., Supervisor; Clark Maxon, Joshua Whitford and John Stanton, Assessors. The records show a specimen of legislation, which would be a novelty now, though it was common at that day. The “natural rights” of the porkers have been greatly abridged in three-fourths of a century. Witness the following: “ Voted, That hogs shall run at large.” In 1797 the porcine race enjoyed still greater privileges. “Voted, That hogs shall run at large without either rings or yoaks GAZETTEER OF TO WES. 35 The records of a “ called Town Meeting,” in 1802, show that they were not unmindful of the sanitary condition of the embryo town, as the following votes attest: “Voted, That no person shall set up enoculation, or have the small pox, within eighty rods of any public highway or road.” “Voted, That no person enoculated, shall come within twenty-five rods of any highway or road, until he shall be thoroughly cleansed by a Doctor, or some other safe person.” A violation of these laws subjected the offender to a fine. The census of 1865 gives the town a population of 3,593, and an area of 45,092 acres. There are . thirty-three school districts, employing twenty-eight teachers, and having 1,162 pupils, with an average attendance of 400. The whole amount expended for school purposes in 1867 was $2,960.00. CAZJENO VIA, named from Theophilus Cazenove, the first agent of the Holland Land Company, was formed from Paris and Whitestown, March 5, 1795. Its territory was subsequently diminished by taking off De Ruyter in 1798; Sullivan in 1803; Smithfield and Nelson in 1807; and a part of Fenner in 1823. It is the central town upon the west border of the County. Its surface is a rolling upland, broken by the valleys of Chittenango and Limestone Creeks. The summits of the hills are from 300 to 500 feet above the valleys. Cazenovia Lake, (called by the Indians, Owahgena, meaning, “ the lake where the yellow fish swim,” or “ yellow perch lake,”) is a beautiful sheet of water, about four miles long. Its outlet, Chittenango Creek, forms a part of the boundary between this town and Fenner, and is a feeder for the Erie Canal. The stream has, in its course, a fall of several hundred feet, affording a great number of valuable mill sites. At the Chittenango Fall, about three miles from Cazenovia village, the water plunges, in a beautiful cascade, perpendicularly, over: a ledge of limestone rock, 136 fe§t in height. Limestone Creek flows across the south part of the town. On this stream, near the southwest border of the town, are two beautiful cascades, one of which is ninety feet in height, the other between sixty and seventy. Hydraulic and common limestone are quarried near Chittenango Falls. In the northern and central parts, the soil is a gravelly loam; in the southern part, a clayey loam, underlaid by hardpan. Cazenovia, (p. v.) incorporated February?, 1810, is beautifully situated on Chittenango Creek, at the foot of Cazenovia Lake, and is a summer resort. It contains six churches, two banks, three hotels, the Oneida Conference Seminary, and several manufactories. The Seminary was founded in 1825, and is a large and flourishing institution. There is a large sash and blind factory, a woolen fac-36 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. tory, and a large tannery, on Chittenango Creek, a short distance below the village. The sash and blind factory of O. W. Sage uses about one million feet of pine lumber, twenty barrels of glue, two tons of finishing nails, and fifty reams of sand paper, annually. About forty-five hands and six teams are employed, turning out about eighteen thousand doors, fifteen thousand pair of blinds, and 250,000 lights of sash annually. The American Lock Company have recently established a factory here, for the manufacture of “ Felter’s Patent Culindo Locks.” They are burglar and powder-proof, simple in construction, and possess the most desirable qualities of the best combination locks, and are in many respects superior to any hitherto made. The Company have already a capital of $33,000 invested, with the privilege of increasing it to $100,000. There are several mills, machine shops, cabinet shops, &c., in the village. The population is about 2,000. Bingley Mills, about two miles from Cazenovia, on Chittenango Creek, has been owned by Mr. W illiam Atkinson since September 12, 1831. This is a longer time than any other mill in town has been run by the same man. H. S. Keeler and C. L. Chappell have recently opened a trotting course on their land, about half a mile north of Cazenovia village. New Woodstock, (p. v.) situated in the southern part of the town, contains two churches, two carriage and wagon shops, an extensive glove factory, a hotel, four stores, several mechanic shops and mills, iand about 300 inhabitants. A fine new school house, to cost about $3,000, is being erected. From July 27, 1867, to July 27, 1868, not a death occurred within two miles of the village. Isaac Warren, Robert Fisher, Jonathan Smith and John Savage, were the first settlers in this part of the town. Ralph Knight, now the oldest resident of the village, born December 1$, 1796, was the second child born in the town. Chittenango Falls is a post office. The first settlement of this town was commenced by John Linek* laen, from Amsterdam, Holland, in 1793. The Holland Land Company had previously purchased the greater part of this town, and Mr. Lincklaen undertook the sale and settlement of the tract. His party numbered sixteen persons, of whom Samuel S. Forman was engaged as general business assistant, and charged with the disposition of a stock of goods, selected and sent forward to supply the settlers with comforts not otherwise to be had. These goods were left with John Post, at old Fort Schuyler, (near Utica,) the only merchant then residing at that place. The first load of goods was brought along the “ Genesee Road” to Oneida Castle, being one day’s journey, thence to the Chittenango Creek, following its banks to the village of that name. Here the road terminated, and Indian trails were the only openings. From this place Mr. For-G&ZETTEER OF TOWNS. 37 : man’s axemen cleared a passage for tkeir loaded cart, and with * great labor they reached the summit of the high hill, but not till the sun had sunk beneath the horizon, was their tent pitched for the night. The next day they reached the foot of Cazenovia Lake, t where they determined to make a settlement. Log cabins were j rapidly erected, a storehouse was built, an office opened, and tempting terms offered to settlers, such as one dollar an acre for lots ] purchased by the first ten settlers with families. This offer was i promptly accepted, and raised a clamor for like advantages ; to newly married couples, to share in Mr. Lincklaen’s novel patronage. Surveys were pressed forward under Mr, Locke, and pur-} chases rapidly effected at $1.-50 to $2.00 per acre. As an evidence of the intelligence of the early settlers, it is said, on the authority ! of Mr. Forman, who wTas a clerk in tjie land office for four years, that only one man who could not write his name took up land during the whole time. Among the other early settlers were Archibald Bates, William Gillett, William Miles, Benjamin Pierson, Noah Taylor, Ira Peck, Nathan Webb and Shubael Brooks. E, S. Jackson, Samuel Thomas, Joseph Sims, Isaac Morse, Gideon Freeborn and David , Fay, also settled here at an early day. Mrs. Mary De Clercq, j whose maiden name was Ledyard, came to this town, on horseback, 1 from Connecticut, in 1798. She is still living, and in the 88th year of her age. Levi Burgess came about 1800. His son Elam,. . now a resident of this town, has resided here sixty years. The first birth was that of a child of Noah Taylor, in 1794. | John Lincblaen built the first saw and grist-mills, in 1794. Mat-: thew Chandler erected the first woolen factory, and Ebenezer Knowlton, a chair shop and an oil mill, at an early day. Luther I Bunnell erected a trip-hammer shop, and carried on an extensive ; business about 1810. From 1812 to 1817, Cazenovia was the \ County Seat. The Gneida Indians formerly had a small village on the present site of Cazenovia, and the remains of a fort were found there. The lake was a place of resort for fishing by the Oneidas I and Onondagas. The town contains nine churches. The first | church (Presb.) was organized May 17,1799, with eight members. The following are the names of the original members, viz: Jede-j diah Turner, Jacob Dannals, John Tappan, Samuel R. Coats, Anne ■' Howd, Mary Dannals, Eunice Coats and Alathea Root. Jedediah Turner was the fir^t deacon. Rev. Joshua Leonard was the first i pastor. The census of 1865 gives the town a population of 4,157, and an : .area of 29,274-acres. There are twenty-two school districts^ em- ploying eighteen teachers. The whole number of pupils ia 842, and the average attendance 330. The whole amount expended* for c38 GAZETTEER OE TOWNS: school purposes in 1867 was $3,763.06v Cazenovia is about to be connected with Canastota by railroad, JDJE JR UYTJEM9 named from Admiral De Ruyter, of the Dutch Navy, was formed from Cazenovia, March 15,1798'. Georgetown was. taken off in 1815, and German, (Chenango Co.) in 1896. It is the south-west corner town of the County. Its surface consists of hilly upland, broken by the valley of the Tioughnioga River. The summits of the hills are from 400 to 500 feet above the valleys. The principal streams are the Tioughnioga River and its tributaries. The soil is a sandy and gravelly loam- on the hills, and alluvium in the valleys. De Ruyter, (p. v.) incorporated April 15, 1833, contains four churches, and between 700 and 800 inhabitants. The De Ruyter Institute was founded in 1836, and the school was opened in 1837. It contains dormitories to accommodate one hundred' students, and has an endowment of $10,000. There are several manufactories in . the town, viz : two tanneries, a flax mill, a cabinet shop, a spring bed factory, and a horse-rake manufactory. Shed’s Corners ( p. o.) contains two churches, a tavern and grocery. Hon. James W. Nye, U. S. Senator, Nevada; Hon. John F. Benjamin, M. C., Missouri, and Judge E. Darwin Smith, of Rochester, were natives of this town. The first settlers were Elijah and Elias Benjamin, and Eli Col-grove, in 1793. Joseph Messenger and Samuel Thomson settled in the town in* 1795. Darius Benjamin, Justus, Jeremiah and Ebe-nezer Gage, and Daniel Page, were also early settlers. Mr. E. E. Benjamin, now, living, was one of the first settlers. The first birth was that of Frederick Benjamin, in 1798. Joseph Messenger kept* the first tavern, in 1796, and Samuel Bowen the first store. Joseph Rich built the first saw-mill, in 1807, and the first grist-mill, in 1809. The first school was taught by Eli Gage, in the winter of 1799. According to the census of 1865, the population of the town was 1,820, and its area 19,202 acres. A reservoir, as a feeder for the Erie Canal, has recently been constructed in this town ; its area is 626 acres; its average depth , 18} feet, and the length of the* feeder 25 miles. The number of school districts is fourteen, employing eleven teachers.

William Eaton, commander of the United States military forces in the expedition to Tripoli, was GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 39 formed from Hamilton, February 6, 1807. It is an interior town, situated in the center of the County. The surface is a rolling upland, broken by the valley of Chenango River into two ridges, whose summits are 400 to 600 feet in height. The Chenango flows south through the center. The outlet of the Eaton Reservoir flows through a deep, narrow ravine, and affords a large number of valuable mill sites. Hatch’s Lake and Bradley Brook Reservoir, and several smaller reservoirs, are in this town. The soil is a gravelly loam, intermixed with clay in the valleys. Morrisville, ( p. v.) named from a family of early settlers in the town, is situated on the Chenango River, and was incorporated April 13,1819. It contains three churches, a bank, the court house, jail, and a fine union school house, in the upper story of which is a large hall, neatly frescoed, and fitted up with stage scenes and fixtures, in a style seldom seen in a village of the size. The Madison Observer, which has retained its present name since 1835, is published here. The population of the village is about 700. Eaton, (p. v.) commonly called “Log City” contains three churches, an extensive manufactory of portable steam engines, and about 500 inhabitants. West Eaton, ( p. v.) commonly called “ Leeville,” contains two churches, three woolen factories, and about 40 or 50 houses. Pratt's Hollow, (p. v.) named from John and Matthew Pratt, early settlers, contains a church and about 20 houses. Pimeville contains a cotton factory and about 30 houses. Pine Woods is a post office. This town was settled in 1792, by John and James Salisbury, from Vermont. They selected lot 94, and Enoch Stowell, from New Hampshire, and Jonathan Bates, from Vermont, their companions, selected an adjoining lot, which proved to be lot 7 in Lebanon. To provide for their necessities in the depth of the forest, they drove an ox, which they slaughtered on their arrival; this, with the flour and beans which they brought, supplied them while they cut the timber from twenty acres of the fertile soil. On the approach of winter the party retired to Bainbridge, on the Susquehanna, intending to resume their labors in the spring, but Mr. Bates and his family only, returned in the spring. Joshua Leland, from Sherburne, Massachusetts, settled in the town in 1793, and was the first permanent settler. John H. and Benjamin Morris, settled in the town in 1794, and Benjamin Morse, Daniel Abbey, Simeon Gillett, Levi Barney and Elijah Hayden, in 1795. Joseph Moss, William Mills, Lewis Wilson, Samuel Sinclair, Humphrey Palmer and a Mr. McCrellis, in 1796; and Ransom Harmon, in 1797. The first birth was that of Col. Uriah Leland, Nov. 1, 1793, and the first marriage that of Lewis Wilson and Dorcas Gillett, in 40 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 1796. The first death was that of Simeon Gillett, in 1796. Joshua Leland opened the first inn, in 1794, and erected the first saw and grist-mill, in 1795. The first store was kept by David Gaston, in 1804, and the first school was taught by Doct. James Pratt, in the winter of 1797-8. He taught the first month at the house of Joseph Moss, the second near Morrisville, the third near Log City, and the fourth near the residence of Joshua Leland. The first church was organized in 1805. The population in 1865, was 3,861, and its area 25,851 acres. There are twenty school districts, employing 24 teachers. The whole number of pupils is 1,295, and the average daily attendance 476. The amount expended for school purposes in 1867 was $3,071.67. Among the notorious residents of this town, during its early history, was Abram Antone, an Indian, who came from the Susquehanna, where he was born. He was bold, adventurous and revengeful, and the terror of all who excited his ill will. He had a daughter who inherited, to some extent, the disposition of her father. She was wooed and won by a man who subsequently became fascinated by a fairer face, and deserted his first love. The dusky maiden could not endure such an indignity, and yielding to a spirit of revenge, murdered the fair one who had charmed away her betrothed. For this crime she was hanged at Peterboro. John Jacobs was the principal witness against her, and active in securing her conviction. Fearing the wrath of the revengeful father, Jacobs left the County and did not return till he had received assurance from Antone that he would not molest him. Relying upon this promise, Jacobs returned and engaged in his usual avocation. While engaged in hoeing in the field, with several others, Antone approached, greeted his associates cordially, and as he seized the hand of Jacobs, stabbed him to the heart, with a knife previously concealed, and escaped. Some time elapsed before he was arrested, as the officers of the law did not like to face the desperado when armed. On one occasion he kept at bay a party of four or five, by threatening to shoot them with a rifle which he held in his hand, and which he afterwards boasted was not loaded. After his condemnation and sentence, he begged that he might be shot, as hanging was too ignominious a death for him. Rumor states that he was guilty of another crime, which ought to shock even the nature of a savage. He returned home one day from an Indian council, somewhat intoxicated, and being annoyed by the crying of an infant child, deliberately buried it in the live coals upon his own hearth, and thus freed himself from that annoyance. He was executed at Morrisville, in September 1823. FENNER, named from Gov. Fenner, of Rhode Island, was formed from Cazenovia and Smithfield, April 22, 1823. It is anGAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 41 interior town, lying north-west of the center of the County. Its surface is a rolling upland. Oneida, Canaseraga and Chittenango Creeks have their sources in this town. The latter forms a part of its western boundary. Extensive marl beds are found, and on the bank of Chittenango Creek, calcarious tufa is quarried and burned into lime. The soil is a gravelly and clayey loam. Perryville ( p. v.) lies partly in Sullivan and Lenox. It contains two churches, a flouring mill, two saw-mills, and about 200 inhabitants. The Cazenovia and Canastota Railroad is to pass through this place. Fenner ( p. o.) is a hamlet, and contains one church. Chittenango Falls (p. o.) is a hamlet, partly in this town. The first settlement was made about the year 1793. Among the early settlers were Alpheus Twist and James Munger, from Connecticut, who located about a mile south of the center ; Jonathan Munger and Mr. Page, in the north part; and Elisha Freeman, Ithuriel Flower, Ames W ebster and Amanda Munger, in the south part. Phineas and Abel Town, John Needham, Thomas Cushing and J. D. Turner, were also early settlers. The first church was organized August 23,1801. The first birth was that of a child of Alpheus Twist, and the first death that of the wife of Alpheus Twist. Nathan Baker was the first preacher. The population in 1865 was 1,387, and the area 17,776 acres. There are fourteen school districts, employing 14 teachers. The whole number of pupils is 415, and the average daily attendance 166. The whole amount expended for schools in 1867 was $2,477.64. Among the early settlers of Fenner were Abner and Jesse Bumpus. The following adventure with a black bear, in 1802, is related by their descendants: A great part of the country was covered with forests, and wild beasts roamed at large, making depredations upon the flocks and herds of the farmers. Abner and Jesse Bumpus, on one occasion, followed a bear about three miles. Coming suddenly upon the bear, on the bank of a brook, Abner snapped his gun, which missed fire. Bruin then became the assailant, turning upon his antagonist, knocked him over into the brook, tearing his scalp in a most shocking manner, and otherwise severely wounding him. When about to be torn in pieces by the enraged beast, Jesse came to the rescue of his brother, seized the bear by the ears, and while engaged in the struggle had his own leg broken in two places. Fortunately, after disabling both, the bear walked off deliberately, leaving his antagonists to obtain aid wherever they could. Their shouts for assistance were at length heard, and they were rescued from their perilous situation. Abner, with his broken leg, was carried home on a stretcher, and Jesse, by the assistance of another, was able to ride upon a horse.42 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. GEOUGJETO WN was formed from De Ruyter, April 7, 1815. It lies upon the south border of the County, west of the center. The surface is a hilly upland, broken by the valley of Otselic Creek into two ridges, whose summits are 500 to 600 feet above the valleys. The principal streams are the Otselic Creek and its branches. The soil upon the hills is a yellow loam, and in the valleys a gravelly alluvium. Geoegetown ( p. v.) contains three churches, and about 300 inhabitants. There are two tanneries, a grist-mill, several saw-mills, and a cheese box factory, also in the town. The first settlement was made in 1804, by Ezra Sexton, on lot No. 58. Matthew Hollenbeck, Jacob Bishop, John C. Paine and Baily Carter, settled in tfie town in 1804 ; and Mitchell Atwood, William Paine, Bethel Hurd, Joseph P. Harrison and Josiah Purdy, in 1805. Ebenezer Hull, Apollos Drake, Elijah and Alfred Brown, Jesse Jerrold, Zadock Hawks, John Gibson, David Parker, Phile-tus Stewart, Calvin Cross, Dr. Smith, Benjamin Bonney and Capt. White, were also early settlers. The first birth was that of Weston Paine, in 1805, and the first death that of Mrs. Ezra Sexton, in 1807. Mitchell Atwood built the first saw-mill, in 1806, and Bishop & Hunt the first grist-mill, in 1807. Mr. Atwood still survives, and lives upon the same farm upon which he first settled. J. C. Paine was an early innkeeper. The first religious services were conducted by Ezra Sexton, at the house of Bethel Hurd, in 1805. The census of 1865 gives the town a population of 1,479, and an area of 22,893 acres. There are twelve school districts, employing 12 teachers. The whole number of pupils is 463, and the average daily attendance 153. The whole amount expended for school purposes in 1867 was $1,234.96. About the year 1810, a gentleman of wealth and refinement, who seemed to seek a retired home among the Georgetown hills, created no little interest in this town. He called his name Lewis Anathe Muller, and was considered an exile from France. With that force which wealth can command, he cleared three hundred acres of his land, lying about three miles west of the village of Georgetown. He built a house unlike anything ever seen in this region before or since. It was 70 feet by 30, constructed of massive sills* resting on a foundation of solid masonry. The superstructure was of cherry timber, eight inches thick and eleven feet high, framed into the sills, side by side, around the entire building. These were all planed and tied together by slats, dovetailed into each. All the brick, lime, iron work, nails and ornaments, were from necessity brought over the hills on the backs of horses. The fire places were trimmed with black marble, and the most costly furniture completed the interior arrangements. A brook passingGAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 43 through his grounds supplied an artificial pond, s-tored with fish. Around this pond a great variety of fruit trees was planted. He erected two storehouses, a grist-mill and several dwellings in the vicinity. He was fond of hunting, but would attack no game while it was at rest, though it stood little chance of life under such circumstances when his rifle was in his hands. In 1814, when Bonaparte abdicated, Muller returned to France, leaving his wife and family in New York. After an absence of two or three years, he returned to dispose of his property here. On his arrival in Georgetown, his house was stripped of furniture, his stock and all movable property had disappeared, his mill was deserted, and desolation and ruin marked everything around. The agent in whose care he had left his property, had disappeared. In mute dismay he viewed the wreck of his former home. He returned to New York, disposed of his land, and then returned to France, not having been heard of since. It is supposed that he brought $150,000 to Georgetown, and that he left with scarcely the hundredth part of that sum. HAMILTON was formed from Paris, March 5, 1795, and was named from Alexander Hamilton. Eaton, Lebanon and Madison were taken off in 1807. It lies upon the south border of the County, between Lebanon and Brookfield. Its surface is a rolling upland, broken by the valleys of the Chenango River, and its east branch.

It contains four churches, the Hamilton Female Seminary, two newspaper offices, a bank and about 1,800 inhabitants. It also contains a manufactory of paper cheese boxes. In the center of the village is a beautiful park, neatly fenced, and laid out with gravel walks. The Madison University, located at this place, was incorporated March 26,1846. It consists of a grammar school, a collegiate and a theological department. The “ Hamilton Theological Seminary” was established in 1820, under the auspices of the Baptist Education Society of the State of New York. In 1834 a collegiate course was instituted, and the Seminary assumed the name of the “ Hamilton Literary and Theological Seminary,” and in 1846, the institution was incorporated as the “ Madison University.” The theological department is still under the control of the Baptist Educational Society. The college buildings, all of stone, and substantially built, occupy spacious grounds, on an eminence a short distance from the business part of the village. The land, buildings, &c., of the University, are valued at $80,000, and its invested44 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. funds to $-180,000, The annual expenses of the Institution are $16,000.

The grounds, amply shaded in front, surrounded and secluded in the rear by a high hedge of evergreens, and otherwise adorned by garden walks, arbors, artificial pond and fountain, could not well be surpassed in beauty or adaptation to educational purposes. The public schools are united, forming a Union School, and occupying a commodious building. Earlville, (p. v.) named from Jonas Earl, Canal Commissioner, contains two churches and about 450 inhabitants, half of whom are in this town.

Theophilus and Benjamin Pierce, Jonathan Olmsted, Daniel Smith and Nathan Foster, settled in the town in 1795, and Thomas Greenley, in 1796. Mr. Dominick Lynch was the proprietor of the soil, and it is said that he was so much pleased by the sale of the first five hundred acres, at twenty shillings an acre, that he paid five dollars extra to have the deed engrossed on parchment, which is still held in the family. The first church (Bap.) was formed in 1796. The census of 1865 gives the town a population of 3,434, and an area of 23,904 acres. There are 18 school districts in the town, employing 18 teachers.

Oneida Creek forms its east boundary, and Oneida Lake a part of its north boundary. The Cowaselon swamp occupies a portion of the north part. In the north the soil is alluvium; in the south a gravelly and clayey loam. Beds of gypsum and of red fossiliferous iron ore are found in the town. Near Cowaselon Creek is a sulphur spring, whose waters possess excellent medicinal properties. A short distance from Canastota, a salt well has been sunk several hundred feet, from which an abundance of excellent brine may be obtained. A company has been formed and vats are being constructed for the manufacture of salt. Oneida, ( p. v.) situated on Oneida Creek, was incorporated June 26, 1848. It is a flourishing village, and one of the principal stations on the N. Y. C. R. R., between Syracuse and Rome. It contains five churches, the Oneida Seminary, two newspaper offices, two banks and about 3,000 inhabitants. A fine large school house46 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. has recently been erected, in which is taught a graded school. The New York, Oswego and Midland Railroad is located through this village. The village is about to be lighted with gas. Canastota, (p. v.) incorporated April 28,1835, is situated on the canal, and is a station on the N. Y. C. R. R. It contains three churches, a newspaper office, a bank, a brick yard, two large carriage shops, a steam saw-mill and planing mill, two tanneries and several smaller manufacturing establishments. The manufactory of astronomical and optical instruments, established by Charles A. Spencer, deserves a more extended notice than our space will allow. Some of the most important improvements of these instruments have been made by Mr. Spencer, by which the knowledge of the Naturalist has been greatly increased, the hidden mysteries of nature brought to light, and science in many forms greatly enriched. The great equatorial telescope of Hamilton College was made here; The savans of the old world have been compelled to acknowledge the superiority of his instruments. The Canastota and Cazenovia Railroad terminates here. The population is about 2,000. Wampsville ( p. v.) is a station on the N. Y. C. R. R., and contains a church and 25 or 30 houses.

Noyes, from whom most of their social and religious tenets were received. They form a general community, holding a common interest in all things. They call their peculiar social system “ complex marriageThey number about two hundred; are located on a farm of over 500 acres, and engaged in horticulture and manufacturing. Their farm and dwellings are in Lenox, but some of their shops are in Oneida County. Their principal manufactures are steel-traps, sewing machine twist, and preserved fruits.

They have a saw-mill, a foundry, a carpenter shop and packing box manufactory, and a machine shop, where they make their own silk machinery. In some departments they employ hired help, superintended by their own people. “ The Circular,” published weekly, is “ free to all,” but “ those who choose to pay, may send one dollar a year.” The first settlement was made by Conrad Klok and his sons Joseph, John and Conrad. The Forbeses, Buyas and Snyders, were early settlers. The great thoroughfare between Utica and Canandaigua lay through this town, a short distance south of the canal and Central Eailroad. In 1804, an act was passed granting Jason Parker and Levi Stephens the exclusive right for seven years, to run stages twice a week between Utica and Canandaigua, to furnish four good substantial covered wagons or sleighs, and a sufficient number of horses to run them. The fare was not to exceed five cents a mile, with fourteen pounds of baggage; and the distance, accidents excepted, must be made in 48 hours. In 1808 a daily line was established, and continued till the construction of the Utica and Syracuse Railroad. The first annual town meeting of Lenox was held in 1810, at which there was some legislation, of which the following is a specimen: A- bounty of $25 to any inhabitant of the town who should kill a wolf in the town. “Voted, that the town give the Indians $5 each, for every wolf they shall kill, on making satisfactory proof before two or more Justices of the Peace.” “ Voted, that hogs be considered free commoners, with a suitable yoke around their neck.” The next year we find the following: “ Voted, that no horses, cattle or hogs, shall have a free run from the 15th of December to the 15th of March, and further, if found within twenty rods of any tavern, store or mill, they are liable to be pounded, and the owner or owners to pay one shilling per head for every such offense.” The records of 1826 show the following: “ Whereas, the inhabitants of the northern part of Madison County have very liberally given their lands for the construction of the canal, and “Whereas, they possess naturally the advantage of several streams of water, which are taken into the canal, and the mill owners and inhabitants of this part of the County have never had the offer of purchasing the surplus water in this part of the County, 48 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. and as these waters are continually drained off from this County for the benefit of other parts of the country, therefore, “ Resolved, as the sense of this meeting, that the privilege of the use of these waters naturally belongs to the inhabitants of this County, and they are fully determined not to relinquish their natural right and claim to the same.” In 1830, “Voted, that the compensation of fence Viewers be fifty cents a day.” “Voted, that cattle over three years old be not free commoners.” The population of the town in 1865 was 8,456, and its area 49,-568 acres.

Their Fair Grounds embrace fourteen acres of land near Canastota, fitted up in good style, with a half mile track. The following incident in the early history of Lenox, has caused a good deal of amusement, and been related “ with variations” from the time of its occurrence: During the war of 1812, the patriotic citizens of Lenox raised a company of horse artillery, that volunteered for the war. The officers, Capt. Jennings; 1st Lieut. Joseph Bruce; 2d Lieut. Argalus Cady ; Cornet, David Beecher; Orderly Sergeant, J. Austin Spencer; had met at the store of Lieutenant Bruce, to prepare a requisition letter to Governor Daniel D. Tompkins for two field pieces. While discussing the proper form in which to address so distinguished a man as the Governor, the village lawyer, a waggish fellow, by the name of Hopkins, came into the store, and walking up to the desk, seized a pen, saying, “ I will write a requisition,” and forthwith produced the following : “ Great Daniel D., We send to thee For two great guns and trimmings, Send them to hand, Or you’ll be d—d, By order of Captain Jennings.” This, of course, created a good deal of amusement, and though not sent to the Governor, it was too good to be kept, and in some way, unbeknown to the officers of the company, he heard of the incident, as the sequel will show. Some of the officers mentioned were rewarded for gallant services in the war, by promotion, and they, with others, sent to Albany by Mr. Hopkins, for their commissions. On calling for them, Mr. Hopkins learned that they were all made out, and lacked only the signature of the Governor. To facilitate the business, he offered to take them to the Governor, who placed his autograph to the documents one after another, tillGAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 49 coming to one belonging to an officer of Capt. Jennings’ Company, he stopped, and very gravely asked, “Is this by order of Capt. J ennings Another incident, of an earlier date, when this town shared with Hamilton the honors of the County Seat, and the courts were held in the school house, on Quality Hill, was the trial of Mr. Hitchcock, of Madison, for the murder of his wife. As there was no jail in this County, the prisoner was confined at Whitestown, and so great was the interest excited at this trial, that the Court was held in the barn of Sylvanus Smalley, that being more commodious than the school house. The prisoner was afterwards executed at Cazenovia. MADISON was formed from Hamilton, February, 6, 1807. It lies on the east border of the County, south of the center. Its surface is a rolling upland. The principal stream is Oriskany Creek, flowing through the northern part. The Madison Reservoir and several smaller ponds, are in this town. The soil, in the valleys, is a gravelly loam, and a clayey loam upon the hills. Madison, (p. v.) incorporated April 17, 1816, contains four churches, and a population of about 300. Boucicville, (p. v.) named from Governor Bouck, contains a church, a steam saw mill, a manufactory of vinegar and champagne cider, and about 300 inhabitants.

Its surface is a rolling upland. The principal stream is Chittenango Creek. The Erieville and Eaton Reservoirs are in this town; the former constructed in 1857, has an area of 340 acres, and cost about $11,000. The soil is generally a gravelly loam. Erieville (p. v.) contains three churches and about 200 inhabitants. Nelson Flats, (Nelson p. o.) in the northern part, contains two churches, and about 150 inhabitants. In the north-eastern part of the town are a large number of Welsh, who have a church and services conducted in their own language. The first settlement was made iu 1794, by Asa and Jedediah Jackson. Joseph Yaw, Ebenezer Lyon, Samuel and Charles Swift, Jonathan Buell and Samuel Kinney, also settled in the town the same year. Oliver Stone and James Hinman settled in 1795; and Joshua Wells, David Wellington, Israel Patterson, Richard Korley, Daniel Adams, Horatio Simms, Abner Camp and Lemuel and El-dad Richardson, in 1796. The first birth was that of Palmer Wells in 1796, and the first death that of Mrs. Bishop in 1800. Jedediah Jackson kept the first inn, in 1794. Jeremiah Clark built the first saw mill, and Oliver Pool the first grist mill, about 1800. Daniel Russell was the first store keeper, and Dea. Dunham was one of the earliest school teachers. The population in 1865 was 1,717 ; its area 26,741 acres. There are fourteen school districts in the town, employing fourteen teachers. The whole number of pupils is 462, and the average attendance 184. The amount expended for school purposes in 1867 was $1,366.26. SMITHFIJELD was formed from Cazenovia, March 13, 1807. Fenner was taken off in 1823, and a part of Stockbridge in 1836. It is an interior town, lying north of the center of the County. Its surface is a hilly and rolling upland. The principal streams are the Cowaselon and Oneida Creeks. The soil is a sandy and gravelly loam. Limestone and Gypsum are found in the northeastern part. Near Siloam is a sulphur spring. Peterboro, (p. v.) named from Hon. Peter Smith, is situated on Oneida Creek, near the center of the town. It contains four churches, (only two of which are regularly occupied,) an Academy, a hotel, a flouring mill, a saw mill, a carriage shop, a planing mill,GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. ' 51 a cheese box factory and several other mechanic shops. The cheese box factory turns out about 20,000 boxes annually. About 220,-000 pounds of cheese are made annually at the Peterboro cheese factory and its two branches. The population of the village is about 350. Siloam, (p. v.) in the eastern part of the town, contains a church, a grist inill, a saw mill, a cheese factory, and about fifteen houses, and the usual number of mechanic shops. As early as 1794, Peter Smith, as he then signed his name, (later in life UP. Smith,” and after leaving Peterboro, in 1819, “ Peter Smith of Peterboro,”) then a resident of Fort Schuyler, (now Utica,) obtained from the Oneida tribe of Indians, a lease, giving him the possessory right to the large tract of land, some four and a half miles in width, and extending from the east line of Augusta, westward ly, to the east line of the County of Onondaga, since known as “ New Petersburg,” and containing about 50,000 acres. He soon caused a survey to be made, and divided the whole tract into four allotments. The first allotment was nearly all in Augusta, Oneida County. The town of Smithfield, as originally bounded, included within its limits a few lots at the west end of the first allotment, and the whole of the second and third allotments, excepting the west tier of lots in the third; which west tier of lots, and the whole of the fourth allotment, were in Cazenovia. The Mile Strip Tract, lying north of New Petersburg, was purchased of the State by Enoch Leonard, of Albany, in August 1797. It was one mile in width, and extended from the Cowaselon Creek on the east, westwardly, to or beyond the Chittenango Creek. All that part of this tract lying east of the lots 28 and 29 was also included in old Smithfield. The north line of the Mile Strip was made the north line of Smithfield, as it was also the south line of Sullivan, Lenox, then constituting a part of the older town of Sullivan. The south line of New Petersburg became the south line of Smithfield. While the survey of the New Petersburg tract was in progress, a desperate onset was made upon the surveying party by a party of hostile Indians. Joseph Annin, surveyor, lost his compass and chain, and was seriously wounded in the head by a tomahawk. The assai lants were from the Pagan party of the Oneidas, who from the first were opposed to leasing the tract, and now sought to defeat by force, what they had failed to prevent by argument. The Christian party, faithful to their engagements, sought to prevent this hostile demonstration, and mustering a considerable force, posted themselves at the foot of a long hill, near the site of the old house, known as the house with five chimneys, hoping to intercept the hostile band and prevent the consummation of their sinister design. But the Pagans, by a flank movement, eluding the vigilance of the Christians, reached the objective point by some unfrequented route,52 GAZETTEER OF TO WES. and for the time being, interrupted the survey. This affray occurred upon the farm now owned by Elias Sager, in Peterboro. Soon after, the State, by treaty, acquired from the Oneidas their interest in the tract, and in October 1797, Judge Smith obtained from the State a deed for the fee of all the land in New Petersburg which had not been previously leased by him to others, amounting to 22,-299} acres, for which he covenanted to pay to the State $3,53} per acre, this being the average price for which the residue of the Oneida Reservation was sold at the Surveyor General’s sale in August of that year. By this arrangement he acquired a title, and such allowances were made by the State for his lease, as reduced the price of the land conveyed to him to about $2 per acre. Sales were made to settlers at from $5 to $6 per acre, prices gradually tending upwards as the settlement of the town progressed, until they reached to three or four times such cost, before the farm lands were all taken up. The first grist mill in the village of Siloam, stood upon the site of the one now in operation, and was built in 1810, by Jeremiah Ellen wood and Elijah Manley, and the first saw mill, half a mile below, was built by Ellinwood and David Coe, a year or two later, or y possibly, the same year. John Gregg is supposed to,have been the first settler in Siloam. Besides Gregg, very few, if any, white families were there previous to the year 1806. In the year 1803, or a year before, the “ Oneida Turnpike,” running from Vernon to Cazenovia, was constructed, and running through the town, rendered it more accessible to persons seeking for homes, and, during the next ten years, nearly all the farming lands in the town were taken up and settled upon. The pioneer settlers, Jasper Ales worth, Joel Trumbull, Oliver Trumbull, son of Joel, and Seth Griffin, the father-in-law of Oliver, all came in 1795. The Trumbulls and Griffin had families, and all of them located on lot No. 33, 2nd allotment, New Petersburg, being the first lot south of No. 26, on which is Peterboro. Ales-worth was unmarried, and came as the hired man of Judge Smith, and in that capacity felled the forest trees on the village plat, then an untouched wilderness, which had never before been made to echo with the sound of the axeman’s blows, and the hourly crashing of falling trees. How long he contiuued in Judge Smith’s employ is not known, but at an early day in the history of the town, he married a daughter of John Tafft, Esq., another early settler, who lived on lot 31, and whose death was one of the earliest in the history of the town. Mr. Alesworth became a permanent resident of the town, and was an enterprising and successful farmer. Two only of the large family he reared remain in town. Ithamar Bump settled on lot 41, N. P., in 1797, where he continued to reside till removed by death, August 14,1815. Soon af-GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 53 ter his first settlement in town, he was joined by his father, Iehabod Bump, and, in the course of a few years, Moses, Nathan, David, Jonathan, Gideon and Jacob, brothers of Ithamar, and a sister named Hannah, the wife of Ebenezer Bronson, all became residents of the town. In their physical characteristics this was a peerless family. The brothers were all large, well developed men, averaging six feet in height, with great muscular power, and as wrestlers and for their personal prowess, (qualities highly prized in those days,) were a terror to the athletes of the County. Some of them were enterprising and successful farmers, among whom, Ithamar especially, was an industrious, upright and esteemed citizen. His descendants to the third generation still live in town,, and include some prominent business men. The old patriarch, Iehabod, died December 22, 1823, in his 90th year. Captain Joseph Black came in, about the year 1798. Where he first located is not certainly known, but in the fall of 1802 he was on Lot 59, N. P., 2nd allotment, and, in 1803 or 1804, he became a prominent contractor for the construction of a large section of the old “Oneida Turnpike,” which was made under his immediate supervision. He was proverbially upright and reliable, insomuch that to this day the question is sometimes asked by those who knew him and still remember him, whether this generation furnishes any specimens of such unswerving integrity. His memory is precious, and though dead he yet speaketh. Between the years 1798 and 1805, many valuable men came in and settled as farmers in different parts of the town, but chiefly on the two southern tiers of lots in the town, and on the Mile Strip tract.. On the Mile Strip tract, and contiguous thereto, were Jacob and Samuel Walker, Allen Bill, David Shipman, Solomon Merrill, Sr., and sons, Robert Streeter, Gideon Wright, Jabez Lyon, Shadraeh Hardy, David Tuttle, Ezra Chaffee, Mrs. Moody and her sons David and Samuel, Mrs. Matteson and her sons John, Abraham, Eli and Nathan, Barzillia and Amos Northrup, Sylvanus Matfaewson and sons Winchester and Stephen, Stephen Risley, Moses Howe, Salmon Howard and Francis Dodge. On the two southern tiers of lots were Edward Bliss, Wright Brigham, John Lucus, Rodman Spencer and sons, David Blodget, Alpheus Thompson, John Ford, Reuben Rich, Andress Loveland, &c., &c. Most of these, with many more not named in the list, settled permanently, became prosperous farmers, and valuable men and citizens; and were equally worthy of more than this passing notice, as were those referred to above at greater length. But necessity, much to his regret, compels the writer of this sketch to omit from the narrative much which he would gladly include. James Livingston, a brother-in-law of Judge Smith, was the first merchant in Peterboro, in 1801. The house in which-he kept his D _______________54 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. store, stood at the east end of the public green, and was the first framed house in the village, built in 1800. Elijah Pratt was the first physician, in 1801 or 1802, as he was also the first male school teacher; Tabitha Havens being the first school teacher in town, having a school of five or six scholars, at Peterboro, in 1801. Rev. Joshua Johnson (Presbyterian) was the first resident preacher, in 1806. Nehemiah Huntington was the | first lawyer, in 1807. Captain Daniel Petrie was the first post-; master, in 1807 ; John Downer and Peter Weber, the first black-I smiths, in 1802; Reuben Long built the first grist mill and first ; saw mill, in 1802; John Dourance was the second physician, in I j 1806, and Rivera Nash the third, in 1807. The earliest marriages referred to by old settlers, were those of John Matteson to Hadassah Bliss, and Eljah Trumbull to Abigail Carey, both of which are believed to have occurred in 1803. Em-mon Downer, Esq., now a resident, was born in Peterboro in September 1805. No reliable account of an earlier birth has been given, and he is believed to be the oldest native resident still living in to wn. Twelve years after the settlement of its territory commenced, the town of Smithfield was organized by an act of the Legislature, passed March 13, 1807. Its boundaries have been described. Its first town meeting was held in the western part of the town, at the school house, near David Cook’s. The meeting was an exciting one. Strong sectional feeling and aspirit of rivalry existed between the eastern and western portions of the town. Two tickets were nominated. The candidate of the .east-enders for the supervis-orship was Peter Smith,; and the candidate of the west-enders for the same office, was David Cook. The meeting occurred duringor immediately after the great snowstorm of April 1807, and the snow was full four feet deep, rendering the roads nearly impassable. Many voters living at the east end of the town were from six to eight miles from the place of meeting, yet such was the interest felt for the success of their ticket, that they turned out almost to a man, and overcoming all obstacles, reached the place of meeting in ’ numbers sufficient to achieve a victory, an gress and the Legislature. OHIO was settled at Marietta, in 1788, by emigrants from Virginia md New England; was ceded by Virginia to the United States October 20, 1783; accepted by the latter March 1,1784, and admitted into the Union April 30, 1802.

Rule 1st.—Examine the shading of the letters in title of Bank called lathework, which in genuine notes presents an even, straight, light and silky appearance, generally so fine and smooth as to appear to he all in one solid, pale body. In the counterfeit the lines are coarse and irregular, and in many of the longer lines breaks will be perceived, thus presenting a very inferior finish in comparison to genuine work. 2d.—Observe the dies, circles and ovals in the genuine.; they are composed of a network of lines, which, by crossing each other at certain angles, produce an endless variety of figures; see the one cent stamp attached. The fine line alone is the unit which enables you to detect spurious work. In the counterfeit, the represented white lines are coarse, irregular, and cross each other in a confused, irregular manner, thus producing blurred and imperfect figures. 3d—Examine the form . and features of all human figures on the note. In the genuine, the texture of the skin is represented by fine dots and lines intermixed. In the eyes, the pupil is distinctly visible, and the white clearly seen; the nose, mouth and chin, well formed, natural and expressive; the lips are slightly pouting, and the chin well thrown out; and the.delicate shading of the neck perfectly harmonizes with the rest of the figure. Observe the fingers and toes; they should be clearly and accurately defined. The hair of the head should show the fine strands and present a natural appearance. The folds of the drapery of human figures should lay natural and present a fine, finished appearance. In the counterfeit the female figure does not bear the natural prominence in outlines; observe, the eyes and shading surrounding does not present the lifelike appearance it should. The fingers and toes are not properly and proportionately defined; the hair does not bear that soft and finished appearance as in the genuine. 4th.—Examine the imprint or engraver’s names in the evenness and shape of r the F fine letters. Counterfeits never bear the imprint perfect. This rule should be strictly observed, as it is infallible in detecting counterfeits. 5th.—In the genuine note the landscapes are well finished; trees and shrubs are neatly drawn; the limbs well proportioned, and the foliage presenting a fine natural appearance; clear sky is formed of fine parallel lines, and when clouds or heavy skies appear, they cross each other, and bear a soft, smooth and natural appearance. The perspective, showing a view of the surrounding country, is always clear and distinct. The small figures in the background are always plainly seen, and their outlines and general character recognized. Ships are well defined and the canvass has a clear texture ; railroad cars are very accurately delineated; in examining a train observe carefully the car most distant. In the counterfeit the landscape is usually poorly executed ; the leaves of trees poorly and unnaturally defined.— The lines representing still water are scratchy rather than parallel, the sky is represented generally m like manner, and where rolling clouds are to be seen, the unnatural effect is obvious. Domestic animals are generally poorly executed, particularly the head and limbs ; the eyes are seldom clearly defined. Ships are poorly drawn, the texture of the canvass coarse and inferior in style of workmanship, thus giving an artificial appearance. Railroad cars are also poorly executed ; the car farthest from the eye is usually the most imperfect. The perspective is always imperfect; the figures in the background can seldom be recognized. 6th.—Bills altered from a smaller to a higher denomination, can readily be detected by a close observer, in consequence of the striking difference between the parts which have been extracted and the rest of the note. This difference is readily perceived in the lack of color, body and finish off he dye; we have seen bills where the surrounding shading in altered dies was86 HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. too dark, but from the back or finish of the white lines you have a sure test. Again observe particularly the words “Five” or “ Ten Dollars ” as the case may be, denoting the denomination of the note; the parallel outlines and shading (if any) are coarse and imperfect. Alterations are frequently made by pasting a greater denomination over a smaller, but by holding the bill up to the light, the fraud will be perceived. Another method resorted to is to cut out the figures in the dies as well as the words one dollar, or the words two or three as the case may be, and with a sharp eraser, scrape down the ends and also the edges of the pieces to be inserted; when the pieces thus prepared are affixed they are hardly perceivable; but by passing the note through the hand, so as to feel the die both with the finger and thumb at the same time, the fraud will be detected by the stiffness of the outer edges, “ occasioned by the gum or method adopted” in affixing the parts. The letter S should always be examined, as in many alterations it is pasted or stamped at the end of the word “ dollar;” and even when stamped there, the carrying out of the outlines for its shading will readily show the fraud. Bills of broken banks are frequently altered by extracting the name of bank, state and town; they may readily be de- What will my readers give to know how to get rich? Now, I will not vouch that the following rules will enable every person who may read them to acquire wealth ; but this I will answer for, that if ever a man does grow rich by honest means, and retains his wealth for any length of time, he must practice upon the principles laid down in the following essay. The remarks are not original with me, but I strongly commend tnem to the attention of every young man, at least as affording the true secret of success in attaining wealth. A single perusal of such an essay at an impressible moment, has sometimes a very wonderful effect upon the disposition and character. Fortune, they say, is a fickle dame—full of her freaks and caprices; who blindly distributes her favors without the slightest discrimination. So inconstant, so wavering is she represented, that her most faithful votaries can place no reliance on her promises. Disappointment, they tell us, is the lot of those who make offerings at tected by observing first the state, second the title or name of the bank, third the town or location. General Remarks in Reference to Counterfeits.—The paper on which they are printed is generally of a very inferior quality, with less body, finish and toughness than bank note paper has. The ink generally lacks the rich luster of the genuine ; the red letters and figures are generally imperfect, and the ink does not present the vermillion hue as it should. The printing is generally inferior, usually exhibiting specks of white in the most prominent letters. The date and filling up, and the President’s and Cashier’s names are generally written by the same person, although in many instances they present a different appearance. There are bills in circulation bearing either genuine dies or vignettes; but upon close examination ou will be enabled to detect any spurious ill, whether counterfeit or altered, by the instructions here given, if persevered in for a short time. We beg to suggest, il time will admit, the learner should examine minutely every bill he receives. A powerful pocket magnifying glass, which can be purchased for from fifty cents to one dollar at any of the opticians, will greatly enable you to see and comprehend the difference between genuine and spurious work. BUSINESS. her shrine. Now, all this is a vile slander upon the dear blind lady. Although wealth often appears the result of mere accident, or a fortunate concurrence of favorable circumstances without any exertion of skill or foresight, yet any man of sound health and unimpaired mind may become wealthy, if he takes the proper steps. Foremost in the list of requisites are honesty and strict integrity in every transaction of life. Let a man have the reputation of being fair and upright in his dealings, and he will possess the confidence of all who know him. Without these qualities every other merit Will prove unavailing. Ask concerning a man, “ Is he active and capable?” Yes. “Industrious, temperate and regular in his habits ? Oh yes. “Is he honest? Is he trustworthy?” Why, as to that, I am sorry to say that he is not to be trusted; he needs watching; he is a little tricky, and will take an undue advantage, if he can. “ Then I will have nothing to do with him,” will be the in HOW TO SUCCEED INHOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. variable reply. Why, then, is honesty the best policy ? Because, without it, you will get a bad name, and everybody will shun you. A character for knavery will prove an insurmountable obstacle to success in almost every undertaking. It will be found that the straight line is, in business, as in geometry, the shortest. In a word, it is almost impossible for a dishonest man to acquire wealth by a regular process of business, because he is shunned as a depredator upon society. Needy men are apt to deviate from the rule of integrity, under the plea that necessity knows no law ; they might as well add that^it knows no shame. The course is suicidal, and by destroying all confidence, ever keeps them immured in poverty, although they may possess every other quality for success in the world. Punctuality, which is said to be the soul of business, is another important element in the art of money getting. The man known to be scrupulously exact in the fulfillment of his engagements, gains the confidence of all, and may command all the means he can Tise with advantage; whereas, a man careless and regardless of his promises in money matters will have every purse closed against him. Therefore be prompt in your payments, Next, let us consider the advantages of a cautious circumspection in our intercourse with the world. Slowness of belief and a proper distrust ate essential to success. The credulous and confiding are ever the dupes of knaves and impostors. Ask those who have lost their property how it happened, and you will find in most cases that it has been owing to mis- laced confidence. One has lost by en- orsing, another by crediting, another by false representations; all of which a little more foresight and a little more distrust would have prevented. In the affairs of this world men are not saved by faith, but by the want of it. Judge of men by what they do, not by what they say. Believe in looks rather than words. Observe all their movements. Ascertain their motives and their ends. Notice what they say or do . in their unguarded moments, when under the influence of excitement. The passions have been compared to tortures which force men to reveal their secrets. Before trusting a man, before putting it in his power to cause you a loss, possess yourself of every available information relative to him. Learn his history, his habits, inclinations and propensities; his reputation for honor, industry, frugality and punctuality; his prospects, resources, supports, advantages and disadvantages;' his intentions and motives of action; who are his friends and enemies, and what are his good or bad qualities. You may learn a man’s good qualities and advantages from his friends—his bad qualities ana disadvantages from his enemies. Make due allowance for exaggeration in both. Finally, examine carefully before engaging in anything, and act with energy afterwards. Have the hundred eyes of 87 Argus beforehand, and the hundred hands of Briarius afterwards. Order and system in the management of business must not be neglected. Nothing contributes more to dispatch. Have a place for everything and everything in its place; a time for everything, and everything in its time. Do first what' presses most, and having determined what is to be done, and how it is to be done, lose no time in doing it. Without this method all is hurry and confusion, little or nothing is accomplished, and business is attended to with neither pleasure nor profit. A polite, affable deportment is recommended. Agreeable manners contribute powerfully to a man’s success. Take two men, possessing equal advantages in every other respect, but let one be gentlemanly, kind, obliging and conciliating in his manners ; the other harsh, rude ana disobliging; and the one will become rich, while the other will starve. We are now to consider a very important principle in the business of money-getting, namely—Industry — persevering, indefatigable attention to business. Persevering diligence is the Philosopher’s stone, which turns everything to gold. Gonstant, regular, habitual and systematic application to business, must in time, it properly directed, produce great results. It must lead to wealth, with the same certainty that poverty follows in the train of idleness and inattention. It has been truly remarked that he who follows his amusements instead of his business, will, in a short time, have no business to follow. The art of money-saving is an important part of the art of money-getting. Without frugality no one can become rich; with it, few would be poor. Those who consume as fast as they produce, are on the road to ruin. As most of the poverty we meet with grows out of idleness and extravagance, so most large fortunes have been the result of habitual industry and frugality. The practice of economy is as necessary in the expenditure of time as of money. They say if “ we take care of the pence the pounds will take care of themselves.” So, if we take care of the minutes, the days will take care of themselves. The acquisition of wealth demands as much self-denial, and as many sacrifices of present gratification, as the practice of virtue itself. Vice and poverty proceed, in some degree, from the same sources, namely—the disposition to sacrifice the future to the present; the inability to forego a small present pleasure for great future advantages. Men fail of fortune in this world, as they fail of happiness in the world to come, simply because they are unwilling to deny themselves momentary enjoyments for the sake of permanent future happiness. Every large city is filled with persons, who, in order to support the appearance of wealth, constantly live beyond their income, and make up the deficiency by contracting debts which are never paid. Others, there are, the mere drones of so-88 SOW TO SECURE TEE PUBLIC LANDS. ciety, who pass their days in idleness, and subsist by pirating on the hives of the industrious. Many who ran a short lived career of splendid beggary, could they be but persuaded to adopt a system of rigid economy for a few years, miyrht pass the remainder of their days in affluence. But no! They must keep up appearances, they must live like other folks. Their debts accumulate; their credit fails; they are harassed by duns, and besieged by constables and sheriff. In this extremity, as a last resort, they submit to a shameful dependence, or engage in criminal practices which entail hopeless wretchedness and infamy on themselves and families. Stick to the business in which you are regularly employed. Let speculators make thousands in a year or a day; mind your own regular trade, never turning from it to the right hand or to the left. If you are a merchant, a professional man, or a mechanic, never buy lots or stocks, unless you have surplus money which you wish to invest. Your own business you understand as well as other men; but other peo- Ele’s business you do not understand. »et your business be some one which is useful to the community. All such occupations possess the elements of profit in themselves. How to Secure the Public Lands, OR THE ENTRY OF THE SAME UNDER THE PRE-EMPTION AND HOMESTEAD LAWS. The following circular gives all necessary information as to the procedure necessary in purchasing and securing the public lands: Department of the Interior, ) Gen’l Land Office, July 19, 1865. f Numerous questions having arisen as to the mode of procedure to purchase public lands, or acquire title to the same by bounty land locations, by pre-emptions or by homestead, this circular is communicated for the information of all concerned. In order to acquire title to public lands the following steps must be taken: 1. Application must be made to the Register of the district land office in which the land desired may be situated. A list of all the land offices in the United States is furnished by the Department, with the seats of the different offices, where it is the duty of the Register and Receiver to be in attendance, and give roper facilities and information to persons esirous of obtaining lands. The minimum price of ordinary public lands is $1 ,25 per acre. The even or reserved sections falling within railroad grants are increased to double the minimum price, being $2,50 per acre. Lands once offered at public sale, and not afterwards kept out of market by reservation, or otherwise, so as to prevent free competition, may be entered or located. 2. JBy the applicant filing with the Register his written application describing the tract, with its area; the Register will then certify to the receiver whether the land is vacant, with its price; and when found to be so, the applicant must pay that price per acre, or may locate the same with land warrant, and thereafter the Receiver will give him a’“duplicate receipt,” which he is required to surrender previous to the delivery to him of the patent, which may be had either by application for it to the Register or to the General Land Office. 3. If the tract has not been offered at public sale it is not liable to ordinary private entry, but may be secured by a party legally qualified, upon his compliance with the requirements of the pre-emption laws of 4th September, 1841, and 3d March, 1843; and after such party shall have made actual settlement for such a length of time as will show he designs it for his permanent home, and is acting in good faith, building a house and residing therein, he may proceed to the district land office, establish his pre-emption claim according to law, by proving his actual residence and cultivation, ana showing that he is otherwise within the purview of these acts.— Then he can enter the land at $1,25, either in cash or with bounty land warrant, unless the premises should be $2,50 acre lands. In that case the whole purchase-money can be paid in cash, or one-half in cash, the residue with a bounty land warrant. 4. But if parties legally qualified desire to obtain title under the Homestead Act of 20th May, 1862, they can do so on com-LAW MAXIMS. 89 plying with the Department Circular, dated 30th October, 1862. 5. The law confines Homestead entries to surveyed lands; and although, in certain States and Territories noted m the subjoined list, pre-emptors may go on land before survey, yet they can only establish their claim after return of survey, hut must file their pre-emption declaration within three months after receipt of official plat, at the local land-office where the settlement was made before survey. Where, however, it was made after survey, the claimant must file within three months after date of settlement; and where actual residence and cultivation have been long enough to show that the claimant has made the land his permanent home, he can establish his claim and pay for the same at any time before the date of the public sale of lands within the range in which his settlement may fall. 6. All unoffered surveyed lands not acquired under pre-emption, homestead, or otherwise, under express legal sanction, must be offered at public sale under the President’s Proclamation, and struck off to of J. M. EDMUNDS, Commissioner General Land Office. the highest bidder, as required by act April 24,1820. LAW MAXIMS. 1. A promise of a debtor to give “satisfactory security” for the payment of a portion of his debt, is a sufficient consideration for a release of the residue by his creditor. 2. Administratoijs are liable to account for interest on funds in their hands, although no profit shall have been made upon them, unless the exigencies of the estate rendered it prudent that they should hold the funds thus uninvested. 3. Any person who voluntarily becomes an agent for another, and in that capacity obtains information to which as a stranger* he could have had no access, is bound in subsequent dealing with his principal, as purchaser of the property that formed the subject of his agency, to communicate such information. 4. When a house is rendered untenantable in consequence of improvements made on the adjoining lot, the owner of such cannot recover damages, because it is presumed that he had knowledge of the approaching danger in time to protect himself from it. 5. When a merchant ship is abandoned by order of the master, for the purpose of saving life, and a part of the crew subsequently meet the vessel so abandoned and bring her safe into port, they will be entitled to salvage. 6. A person who has been led to sell goods by means of false pretenses, cannot recover them from one who has purchased them in good faith from the fraudulent vendor. 7. An agreement by the holder of a note to give the principal debtor time for payment, without depriving himself of the right to sue, does not discharge the surety. 8. A seller of goods who accepts, at the time of sale, the note of a third party, not endorsed by the buyer, in payment, cannot in case the note is not paid, hold the buyer . responsible for the value of the goods. 9. A day-book copied from a “blotter” in which charges are first made, will not be received in evidence as a book of original entries. 10. Common carriers are not liable for extraordinary results of negligence that could not have been foreseen by ordinary skill and foresight. 11. A bidder, at a Sheriff’s sale may retract his bid at anytime before the property is knocked down to him, whatever may be the conditions of the sale. 12. Acknowledgment of debt to a stranger does not preclude the operation of the statute. 13. The fruits and grass on the farm or garden of an intestate descend to the heir. 14. Agents are solely liable to their principals. 15. A deposit of money in bank by a husband, in the name of his wife, survives to her.LAW MAXIMS. 90 16. Money paid on Sunday contracts may be recovered. 17. A debtor may give preference to one creditor over another, unless fraud or special legislation can be proved. 18. A court cannot give judgment for a larger sum than that specified in the verdict. 19. Imbecility on the part of either husband or wife, invalidates the marriage. 20. An action for malicious prosecution will lie, though nothing further was done than suing out -warrants. 21. An agreement not to continue the practice of a profession or business in any specified town, if the party so agreeing has received a consideration for the same, is valid. 22. When A consigns goods to B to sell on commission, and B delivers them to C, in payment of his own antecedent debts, A can recover their value. 23. A finder of property is compelled to make diligent inquiry for the owner thereof, and to restore the same. If, on finding ■ such property, he attempcs to conceal such fact, he may be prosecuted for larceny. 24. A private person may obtain an injunction to prevent a public mischief by winch he is affected in common with others. 25. Any person interested may obtain an injunction to restrain the State or a municipal corporation from maintaining a nuisance on its lands. 26. A discharge under the insolvent laws of one State will not discharge the insolvent from a contract made with a citizen of another State. 27. To prosecute a party with any other motive than to bring him to justice, is malicious prosecution, and actionable as such. 28. Ministers of the gospel, residing in any incorporated town, are not exempt from jury, military, or fire service. 29. When a person contracts to build a house, and'is prevented by sickness from finishing it, he can recover for the part performed, if such part is beneficial to the other party. 30. In a suit for’ enticing away a man’s wife, actual proof of the marriage is not necessary. Cohabitation, reputation, and the admission of marriage by the parties, are sufficient. 31. Permanent erections and fixtures, made by a mortgagor after the execution of the mortgage upon land conveyed by it, become a part of the mortgaged premises. 32. When a marriage is denied, and plaintiff has given sufficient evidence to establish it, the defendant cannot examine the wife to disprove the marriage. 33. The amount of an express debt cannot be enlarged by application. 34. Contracts for advertisements in Sunday newspapers cannot be enforced. 35. A seller of goods, chattels, or other property, commits no fraud, in law, when he neglects to tell the purchaser of any flaws,- defects, or unsoundness in the same. 36. The opinions of witnesses, as to the value of a dog that has been killed, are not admissible in evidence. The value of the animal is to be decided by the jury. 37. If any person puts a fence on or plows the land of another, he is liable for trespass whether the owner has sustained injury or not. 38. If a person, who is unable from illness to sign his will, has his hand guided in making his mark, the signature is valid. 39. When land trespassed upon is occupied by a tenant, he alone can bring the action. 40. To say of a person, “If he does not come and make terms with me, I will make a bankrupt of him and ruin him,” or any such threatening language, is actionable, without proof of special damage. 41. In an action for slander, the party making the complaint must prove the words alleged"; other words of like meaning will not suffice. 42. In a suit of damages for seduction, proof of pregnancy, and the-birth of a child, is not essential. It is sufficient if the illness of the girl, whereby she was unable to labor, was produced by shame for the seduction ; and this is such a loss of service as will sustain the action. 43. Addressing to a wife a letter containing matter defamatory to the character of her husband is a publication, and renders the writer amenable to damages; 44. A parent cannot sustain an action for any wrong done to a child, unless he has incurred some direct pecuniary injury therefrom in consequence of some loss of service or expenses necessarily consequent thereupon. 45. A master is responsible for an. injury resulting from the negligence of his servant, whilst driving his cart or carriage, provided the servant is at the time engaged in his master’s business, even though the accident happens in a place to which his master’s business does not call him; but if the journey of a servant be solely for a purpose of his own, and undertaken without the knowledge and consent of his master, the latter is not responsible. 46. An emigrant depot is not a nuisance in law. 47. A railroad track through the streets is not a nuisance in law.LAW MAXIMS. 91 48. In an action for libel against a news-aper, extracts from such newspaper may e given to show its circulation, and the extent to which the libel has been published. The jury, in estimating the damages, are to look at the character of the libel, and whether the defendant is rich or poor. The plaintiff is entitled, in all cases, to his actual damages, and should be compensate# for the mental sufferings endured, the public disgrace inflicted, and all actual discomfort produced. 49. Delivery of a husband’s goods by a wife to her adulterer, he having knowledge that she has taken them without her husband’s authority, is sufficient to sustain an indictment for larceny against the adulterer. 50. The fact that the insurer was not informed of the existence of impending litigation, affecting the premises insured, at the time the insurance was effected, does not vitiate the policy. 51. The liability of an innkeeper is not confined to personal baggage, but extends to all the property of the guest that he consents to receive. 52. When a minor executes a contract, and pays money, or delivers property on the same, he cannot afterwards disaffirm such contract and recover the money, or property, unless he restores to the other party the consideration received from him for such money or property. 53. When a person has, by legal inquisition been found an habitual drunkard, he cannot, even in his sober intervals, make contracts to bind himself or his property, until the inquisition is removed. 54. Any person dealing with the representative of a deceased person, is presumed, in law, to be fully; apprized of the extent of such representative’s authority to act in behalf of such estate. 55. In an action against a railroad company, by a passenger, to recover damages for injuries sustained on the road, it is not compulsory upon the plaintiff to prove actual negligence in the defendants; but it is obligatory on the part of the latter to prove that the injury was not owing to any fault or negligence of theirs. 56. A guest is a competent witness, in an action between himself and an inn-keeper, to prove the character and value of lost personal baggage. Money in a trunk, not exceeding the amount reasonably required by the traveler to defray the expenses of the journey which he has undertaken, is a part of his baggage; and in case of its loss, while at any inn, the plaintiff may prove its amount by his own testimony. 57. The deed of a minor is not absolutely void. The court is authorized to judge, from the instrument, whether it is void or not, according to its terms being favorable or unfavorable to the interests or the minor. 58. A married woman can neither sue nor be sued on any contract made by her during her marriage, except in an action relating to her individual property. The action must be commenced either by or against her husband. It is only when an action is brought on a contract made by her before her marriage, that she is to be joined As a co-plaintiff, or defendant, with her husband. 59. Any contract made with a person judicially declared a lunatic is void. 60. Money paid voluntarily in any transaction, with a knowledge of the facts, cannot be recovered. 61. In all cases of special contract for services, except in the case of a minor, the plaintiff can recover only the amount stipulated in the contract. 62. A wife is a competent witness with her husband, to prove the contents of a lost trunk, or when a party. 63. A wife cannot be convicted of receiving stolen goods when she received them of her husband. 64. Insurance against fire, by lightning or otherwise, does not cover loss by lightning when there is no combustion. 65. Failure to prove plea of justification, in a case of slander, aggravates the offence. 66. It is the agreement of the parties to sell by sample that constitutes a sale by sample, not the mere exhibition of a specimen of the goods. 67. An agent is liable to his principals for loss caused by his misstatements, tho’ unintentional. 68. Makers of promissory notes given in advance for premiums on policies of insurance, thereafter to be taken, are liable thereon. 69. An agreement to pay for procuring an appointment to office is void. 70. An attorney may plead the statute of limitations, when sued by a client for money which he has collected and failed to pay over. 71. Testimony given by a deceased witness on first trial, is not required to be repeated verbatim on the second. 72. A person entitling himself to a reward offered for lost property, has a lien upon the property for the reward: but only when a definite reward is offered. 73. Confession by a prisoner must be voluntarily made,to constitute evidence against him. 74. The defendant in a suit must be served with process; but service of such process upon his wife, even in his absence from the State, is not, in the absence of statutory provisions, sufficient.92 LAW MAXIMS. 75. The measure of damages in trespass for cutting timber, is its value as a chattel on the land where it was felled, and not the market price of the lumber manufactured. 76. To support an indictment for malicious mischief in killing an animal, malice towards its owner must be shown, not merely passion excited against the animal itself. 77. No action can be maintained against a sheriff for omitting to account for money obtained upon an execution within a reasonable time. He has till the return day to render such account. 78. An interest in the profits of an enterprise, as profits, renders the party holding it a partner in the enterprise, and ma'kes him presumptively liable to share any loss. 79. Males can marry at fourteen, and females at twelve years of age. 80. All cattle found at large upon any public road, can be driven by any person to the public pound. 81. Any dog chasing, barking, or otherwise threatening a passer-by in any street, lane, road, or other public thoroughfare, may be lawfully killed for the same. 82. A written promise for the payment of such amount as may come into the hands of the promisor, is held to be an instrument in writing for the payment of money. 83. The declaration of an agent is not admissible to establish the fact of agency.— But when other proper evidence is given, tending to establish the fact of agency, it is not error to admit the declarations of the agent, accompanying acts, though tending to show the capacity in which he acted. When evidence is competent in one respect and incompetent in another, it is the duty of the court to admit it, and control its effects by suitable instructions to the jury. 84. The court has a general power to remove or suspend an attorney for such immoral conduct as rendered him unworthy of confidence in his official capacity. 85. Bankruptcy is pleadable in bar to all actions and in all courts, and this bar may be avoided whenever it is interposed, by showing fraud in the procurement of the discharge, or a violation of any of the provisions of the bankrupt act. 86. An instrument in the form of a deed, but limited to take effect at the termination of the grantor’s natural life, is held to be a deed, not a will. 87. A sale will not be set aside as fraudulent, simply because the buyer was at the time unable to make the payment agreed upon, and knew his inability, and did not intend to pay. 88. No man is under an obligation to make known his circumstances when he is buying goods. 89. Contracting parties are bound to disclose material facts known to each, but of which either supposes the other to be ignorant, only when they stand in some special relation of trust and confidence in relation to the subject matter of the contract. But neither will be protected if he does anything, however slight, to mislead or deceive the other. 90. A contract negotiated by mail is formed when notice of acceptance of the offer is duly deposited in the post-office, properly addressed. This rule applies, although the party making the offer expressly requires that if it is accepted, speedy notice of acceptance shall be given him. ' 91. The date of an instrument is so far a material part of it, that an alteration of the date by the holder after execution, makes the instrument void. 92. A corporation may maintain an action for libel, for words published of them and relating to its trade or business, by which it has incurred special damages. 93. It is unprofessional for a lawyer who has abandoned his case without trying it, a term or two before trial, to claim a fee conditional upon the success of his client, although his client was successful. 94. Although a party obtaining damages for injuries received through the default of another, was himself guilty of negligence, yet that will not defeat his recovery, unless his negligence contributed to cause the injury. 95. A person may contract to labor for another during life, in consideration of receiving his support; but his creditors have the right to inquire into the intention with which such arrangement is made, and it will be set aside if entered into to deprive them of his future earnings. 96. A grantor may by express terms exclude the bed of a river, or a highway, mentioned as boundary; but if without language of exclusion a line is described as ‘ along, or ‘ upon,’ or as ‘ running to ’ the highway or river, or as ‘ by,’ or ‘ running to the bank of’ the river; these expressions carry the grantee to the center of the highway or river. 97. The court will take pains to construe the words used in a deed in such a way as to effect the intention of the parties, however unskHlfully the instrument may be drawn. But a court of law cannot exchange an intelligible word plainly employed in a deed for another, however evident it may be that the word used was used by mistake for another. 98. One who has lost his memory and understanding is entitled to legal protection, whether such loss is occasioned by his own misconduct or by an act of Providence.LAW MAXIMS. 03 99.

PersonakflUolence, either threatened or inflicted, will he sufficient cause for such separation. 100. Necessaries of dress furnished to a discarded wife must correspond with the pecuniary circumstances of the husband, and be such articles as the wife, if prudent, would expect, and the husband should furnish, if the parties lived harmoniously together. 101. A fugitive from justice from one of the United States to another, may be arrested and detained in order to his surrender by authority of the latter, without a previous demand for his surrender by the executive of the State whence he fled. 102. A watch will not pass under a bequest of “ wearing apparel,” nor of “ household furniture and articles for family use.” 103. Money paid for the purpose of settling or compounding a prosecution for a supposed felony, cannot be recovered back by a party paying it. 104. An innkeeper is liable for the death of an animal in his possession, but may free himself from liability by showing that the death was not occasioned by negligence on his part. 105. Notice to the agent of a company is notice to the company. 106. An employer is not liable to one of his employees for an injury sustained by the latter in consequence of the neglect of others of his employees engaged m the same general business. 107. Where a purchaser at a Sheriff's sale has bid the full price of property under the erroneous belief that the sale would divest the property of all liens, it is the duty of the court to give relief by setting aside the sale. 108. When notice of protest is properly sent by mail, it may be sent by the mail of the day of the dishonor; if not, it must be mailed for the mail of the next day ; except that if there is none, or it closes at an unseasonably early hour, then notice must be mailed in season for the next possible mail. 109. A powder-house located in a populous part of a city, and containing large quantities of gunpowder, is a nuisance. 110. When the seller of goods accepts at the time of the sale, the note of a third person, unindorsed by the purchaser, in payment, the presumption is that the payment was intended to be absolute; and though the note should be dishonored, the purchaser will not be liable for the value of the goods. 111. A man charged with crime before a committing magistrate, but discharged on his own recognizance, is not privileged from arrest on civil process while returning from the magistrate’s office. • 112. When one has been induced to sell goods by means of false pretences, he cannot recover them from one who has bona fide purchased and obtained possession of them from the fraudulent vendor. 113. If the circumstances attendant upon a sale and delivery of personal property are such as usually and naturally accompany such a transaction, it cannot be declared a legal fraud upon creditors. 114. A stamp impressed upon an instrument by way of seal, is good as a seal, if it creates a durable impression in the texture of the paper. 115. If a party bound to make a payment use due diligence to make a tender, but through the payee’s absence from home is unable to find him or any agent authorized to take payment for him, no forfeiture will be incurred through his failure to make a tender.

As Antlorized by Act or Coagress—Approveil Inly 28, 1866. STANDARDS. In every system of Weights and Measures it is necessary to have what are called “ Standardsas the pound, yard, gallon, &c., to he divided and multiplied into smaller and larger parts and denominations. The definition and construction of these Standards involve philosophical and scientific principles of a somewhat abstruse character, and are made and procured by the legislative department of the government. The nominal Standards in tne new system are the Meter, the Are, the Liter, and the Gram. The only real Standard, the one by which all the other standards are measured, and from which the system derives its name of “ Metric,” is the Meter. THE METER Is used for all measures of length, distance, breadth, depth, heighth, &c., and was intended to be, and is very nearly, one ten-millionth of the distance on the earth’s surface from the equator to the pole. It is about 39% inches, or 3 feet, 3 inches and 3 eighths, and is to be substituted for the yard. THE ARE Is a surface whose side is ten Meters, and is equal to 100 square Meters or about 4 square rods. THE LITER Is the unit for measuring solids and capa-ity, and is equal to the contents of a cube whose edge is one-tenth of a meter. It is about equal to 1 quart, and is a standard in cubic, dry and liquid measures. i-P” A cubic Meter (or Kiloliter) is called a stere, and is also used as a standard in certain cubic measures. THE GRAM Is the Unit of weight, and is the weight of a cube of pure water, each edge of the cube being one one-hundredth of a Meter. It is about equal to 15% grains. It is intended as the Standard in all weights, and with its divisions and multiples, to supersede the use of what are now called Avoirdupois, Apothecaries and Troy Weights. Each of the foregoing Standards is divided decimally, and larger units are also formed by multiples of 10, 100, &c. The successive subordinate parts are designated by the prefixes Deci, Centi and Milli; the successive multiples by Deka, Hecto, Kilo and Myria; each having its own numerical signification, as will be more clearly seen in the tables hereinafter given. The terms used may, at first sight, have a formidable appearance, seem difficult to pronounce, and to retain in memory, and to be, therefore, objectionable; but with a little attention and use, the apprehended difficulty will be found more apparent than real, as has been abundantly proved by experience. The importance, also, of conformity in the use of commercial terms, on the part of the United States, with the practice of the many nations in which the system, with its present nomenclature, has already been adopted, must greatly overbalance the comparatively slight objection alluded to.DECIMAL SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. 95 Old. 4 farthing make 1 penny. 12 pence “ 1 shilling. 20 shillings “ 1 pound.

When a person buys an article for $1,00— 20 per cent off, (or discount,) and sells it again for $1,00, he makes a profit of 25 per cent, on his investment. Thus \ He pays 80 cents and sells for $1,00—a gain of 20 cents, or 25 per cent of 80 cents. And for any transaction where the sale or purchase of gold, silver, or currency is concerned, the following rules will apply in all cases. Rule 1st.—To find premium when discount is given: Multiply 100 by rate of discount and divide by 100, less rate of discount. Rule 2d.—To find discount when premium is given. Multiply the rate of interest by 100, and divide by 100, plus the rate of premium. Suppose A has $140 in currency,.which he wishes to exchange for gold, when gold is 27 per cent, premium, now much gold should he receive ? In this case the premium is given, consequently we must find the discount on A’s currency and subtract it from the $140, as per rule 2d, showing the discount to be a trifle more than 21 per cent, and that he should receive $110.60 in gold. 5 pr ct.

In large cities nothing is more common than to see large business establishments, which seem to nave an immense advantage over all competitors, by the wealth, experience, and prestige they have acquired, drop gradually out of public view, and be succeeded by firms of a smaller capital, more energy, and more determined to have the fact that they sell such and such commodities known from one end of the land to the other. In other words, the establishments advertise ; the old die of dignity.— The former are ravenous to pass out of obscurity into publicity; the latter believe that their publicity is so obvious that it cannot be obscured. The first understand that they must thrust themselves upon public attention, or be disregarded; the second, having once obtained public attention, suppose- they have arrested it permanently; while, in fact, nothing is more characteristic of the world than the ease with which it forgets. Stephen Girard, than whom no shrewder business man ever lived, used to sa^: I have always considered advertising liberally and long to be the great medium of success in business, and the prelude to wealth. And I have made it an invariable rule too, to advertise in the dullest times as well as the busiest; long experience having taught me that money thus spent is well laid out; as by keeping my business continually before the public it has secured me many sales that I would otherwise have lost.

Many have heard of the brilliant stucco whitewash on the east end of the President’s house at Washington. The following is a recipe for it; it is gleaned from the National Intelligencer, with some additional improvements learned by experiments : Take half a bushel of nice unslacked lime, slack it with boiling water, cover it during the process to keep in the steam. Strain the liquid through a fine sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of salt, previously well dissolved in warm water ; three pounds of ground rice, boiled to a thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot; half a pound of powdered Spanish whiting, and a pound of clean glue, which has been previously dissolved by soaking it well, and then hanging it over a slow fire, in a small kettle within a large one filled with water. Add five gallons of hot water to the mixture, stir it well, and let it stand a few days covered from the dirt. It should be put on right hot; for this purpose it can be kept m a kettle on a portable furnace. It is said that about a pint of this mixture will cover a square yard upon the outside of a house if properly applied. Brushes more or less small may be used according to the neatness of the job required. It answers as well as oil paint for wood, brick or scone, and is cheaper. It retains its brilliancy for many years. There is nothing of the kind that will compare with it, either for inside or outside walls. Coloring matter may be put in and made of any shade you like. Spanish brown stirred in will make red pink, more or less deep according to the quantity. A delicate tinge of this is very pretty, for inside walls. Finely pulverized common clay, well mixed with Spanish brown, makes a reddish stone color. Yellow-ochre stirred,in makes yellow wash, but chrome goes further, and makes a color generally esteemed prettier. In all these cases the darkness of the shades of course is determined by the quantity of coloring used. It is difficult to make rules, because tastes are different. It would be best to try experiments on a shingle and let it dry. We have been told that green must not be mixed with lime. The lime destroys the color, and the color has an effect on the whitewash, which makes it crack and peel. When walls have been badly smoked, and you wish to have them a clean white, it is well to squeeze indigo plentifully through a bag into the water you use, before it is stirred in the whole mixture. If a larger quantity than five gallons be wanted, the same proportion should be observed. How to get a Horse out of a Fire. The great difficulty of getting horses from a stable where surrounding buildings are in a state of conflagation, is well known.— The plan of covenng their eyes with a blanket will not always succeed. A gentleman whose horses have been in great peril from such a cause, having tried in vain to save them, hit upon the expedient of having them harnessed as though going to their usual work; when, to his astonishment, they were led from the stable without difficulty. The Chemical Barometer. Take a long narrow bottle, such as an old-fashioned Eau-de-Cologne bottle, and put into it two and a half drachms of camphor, and eleven drachms of spirits of wine; when the camphor is dissolved, which it will readily do by slight agitation, add the following mixture:. Take water, nine drachms; nitrate of potash (saltpetre) thirty-eight grains; and muriate of ammonia (sal ammoniac) thirty-eight grains. Dissolve these salts in the water prior to mixing with the camphorated spirit; then shake the whole well together. Cork the bottle well, and wax the top, but afterwards make a very small aperture in the cork with a red-hot needle. The bottle may then be hung up, or placed in any stationary position. By observing the different appearances which the materials assume, as the weather changes, it becomes an excellent prognosticator of a coming storm or of a sunny sky. Leech Barometer. Take an eight ounce phial, and put in it three gills of water, and place in it a healthy leech, changing the water in summer once a week, and in winter once in a fortnight, and it will most accurately prognosticate the weather. If the weather is to be fine, the leech lies motionless at the bottom of the glass and coiled together in a spiral form; if rain may be expected, it will creep up to the top of its lodgings and remain there till the weather is settled; if we are to have wind, it will move through its habitation with amazing swiftness, and seldom goes to rest till it begins to blow hard; if a remarkable storm oi thunder and rain is to succeed, it will lodge for some days before almost continually out of the water, and discover great uneasiness in violent throes and convulsive-like motions; in frost as in clear summer-like weather it lies constantly at the bottom; and in snow as in rainy weather it pitches its dwelling in the very mouth of the phial. The top should be covered over with a piece of muslin. To Measure Grain in a Bin—Find the number of cubic feet, from which deduct om-jifth. The remainder is the number of bushels—allowing, however, one bushel extra to every 224. Thus in a remainder of 224 there would be 225 bushels. In a remainder of 448 there would be 450 bushels, &c.MS CELL Amo US. 101 Habits oi a Man of B&siness. a sacred regard to the principles oi justice forms the basis oi every transaction, and regulates the conduct of the upright man^of business.

A with a Morai*.—A Connecticut exchange tells the following story of a boy who was sent from Croton, Conn., to New London, one day last summer, with a bag of com. The boy was gone all day, and returned with the bag unopened, which he dumped on the floor. Said he— There isyoar corn, go and sell it, fori can't/’ “ Sold any J** “ No:; I’ve been all over London with it* and nobody said a word concerning green com. Two or three fellows asked me what I had in my bag, and I told ’emit was none-of their business what it was.” The boy is not unlike hundreds of merchants who will promptly call him a fool for not telling what he had to sell, and who are actually doing the same thing on a much larger scale than did the hoy, by not advertising their business.

Water-Proof Blacking and Harness Polish.—Take two and a half ounces gum shellac and half a pint of alcohol, and set in a warm place until dissolved; then add two and a half ounces Venice turpentine to neutralize the alcohol; add a tablespoonful of lampblack. Apply with a fine sponge. It will give a good polish over oil or grease. Mosquitos.—To get rid of these tormentors, take a few hot coals on a shovel, or a chafiug dish, and burn upon them some brown sugar in your bed-rooms and parlors, and you effectually banish or destroy every mosquito for the night. Cheap Outside Paint.—Take two parts (in bulk) of water lime ground fine, one part (in bulk) of white lead ground in oil. Mix them thoroughly, by adding best boiled linseed oil,enough to prepare it to pass through a paint mill, after which temper with oil till it can be applied with a common paint brush. Make any color to suit. It will last three times as long as lead paint, and cost not one-fourth as much. It is Superior. Cure for a Cough.—A strong decoction of the leaves of the pine, sweetened with loaf sugar. Take a wine-glass warm on going to bed, and half an hour before eating, three times a day. The above is sold as a cough syrup, and is doing wonderful cures, and it is sold at a great profit to the manufacturers. How to Judge a Horse. A correspondent, contrary to old maxims, undertakes to judge the character of ahorse lay outward appearances, and offers the following suggestions, the result of his close observation and long experience: If the color be light sorrell, or chestnut, his feet, legs and face white, these are marks of kindness. If he is broad and full between the eyes, he may be depended on as a horse of good sense, and capable of being trained to anything. As respects such horses, the more kindly yon treat them the better you will be treated in return. Nor will a horse of this description stand a whip, if well fed. If you want a safe horse, avoid one that is dish-faced. He may be so far gentle as not to scare; but he will have too much go-ahead in him to be safe with everybody. If you want a fool, but a horse of great bottom, get a deep bay, with not a white hair about him. If his face is a little dished, so much the worse. Let no man ride such a horse that is not an adept in riding —they are always tricky and unsafe. If you want one that will never give out, never buy a large, overgrown one. A black horse cannot stand heat, nor a white one cold. If you want a gentle horse, get one with more or less white about the head; the more the better. Many persons suppose the parti-colored horses belonging to the circuses, shows, &c., are selected for their oddity. But the selections thus made are on account of their great docility and gentleness. Measurement of Hay in the Mow or Stack,—It is often desirable, where conveniences for weighing are not at hand, to purchase and sell hay by measurement. It is evident that no fixed rule will answer in all cases, as it would require more cubic feet at the top of a mow than at the bottom. The general rule adopted by those who have tested it, is 1)4 cubic feet of solid Timothy hay, as taken from mow or bottom of stack. The rule may be varied for upper part of anow or stack according to pressure.104 TWENTY t£AR CALKSBAS. Almanac ol* Calendar for 20 Years.

It has keen fully and practically tested, and wherever introduced has met with the hearty approval of all parties using it. The following are a few of its advantages. 1. It allows tne trace to be drawn PERFECTLY STRAIGHT without any Cramping. 2. There is no draught on a tongue as in nearly every other trace buckle in use, which is liable to cut and break the trace ; but the strain comes directly on an iron wedge, and the hard' er the pull on the trace the firmer the wedge holds it. 3. It is more easily adjusted than any other buckle in use. No hammers, sticks, stones or levers being needed to assist in lengthening or shortening the trace. 4. The saving in wear of traces, will, in a very short time, more than pay the slight dif' ference in cost between it and the ordinary buckle. 5. Any thickness of trace can be used that is desired, as there are rivet holes cast in the under side of the buckle for the purpose of fastening in layers of leather which will vary the space under the wedge as may be required. We only ask a fair trial, being confident that it will prove the truth of the above statement. For sale by all Saddlery Hardware Dealers and Harness Makers in the United States and Canadas.

Central St. St. This delightfiii assort, which has long been celebrated! for the highly medicinal qualities of iti waters, as well as for the quiet loveliness and rural; beauty of its surroundings, changed hands, anc wae refitted and opened June 1st, 1868, as a HEAtTB INSTITUTION AND WATERING PLACE of the’first class order-; replete with all conveniences for promoting the comfort and amusement o the invalid or pleasure seeker, including Hot Baths of the Mineral Waters, with efficient Medlca Supervision, Charming ©rives, Boating, Fishing, Bowling, Billiards. Croquet, &c;A BAND OF MUSIC WILL BE IN ATTENDANCE, Also, Parlor Organ and Piano for the use of guests; affording, altogether, with the spacious Hotel, Family Cottages, and Hygienic facilities, one of the most attractive and profitable resting places for the Gay and Joyous, or the Sick and Weary, in our land. Daily Mails, Telegraph and Livery at the Hotel. Says Harper’s CorrespondentAscending from the Hotel by a winding pathway through the Park, to the summit of the Mountain, 200 feet above the ‘Healing Fountain/ we have one of the most pleasing views in all that region, including Cazenovia and Oneida Lakes ; while a bridge spans the rapid current of the Chittenango in front of the Hotel below, connecting with the pleasure grounds and Family Cottages, in a noble Grove beyond. The valley terminates two and a half miles above the Springs, where the Chittenango falls perpendicularly 150 feet, and forms, in harmony with the deep gorge and other accessories, a scene of surprising beauty.” “Nowhere within such convenient access from the great commercial centers, can be found a more charming resort for the tourist or the business man and his family in search of quiet retirement, healthful bracing air and picturesque surroundings. The Chittenango Mineral Waters are similar in quality to those of the celebrated White Sulphur Springs of Virginia, and appear to possess their wonderful healing powers, particularly in obstinate cutaneous affections, Gout, Rheumatism, and diseases of the Stomach, Liver, Kidneys and other functions.”—Harper’s Monthly, June, 1856. Says Bell in his Work on Baths and Mineral Waters:—“ There are few medicinal agents endowed with greater efficacy in a wide range of Chronic diseases than Sulphurous Waters.” Dr. Armstrong says“ The first thing that struck me in regard to the operation of these waters was that the bowels might be opened by them, day after day, without debility; on the contrary most of the patients gained both strength and flesh. In attending more closely to the changes which these waters induced, I found that they acted most powerfully on all the secretory organs of the body, but more especially on the Liver, on the Kidneys and on the Skin. The long use of ordinary medicines generally tends to weaken the natural powers of the body, but on the contrary those waters which contain Sulphureted Hydrogen Gas largely, have an invigorating influence though taken daily for weeks together. In the numerous forms of Dyspepsia or Indigestion, in Flatulence, or habitual Costiveness, Jaundice, Piles, Gout and Rheumatism, and, lastly, m cases of Stone and Gravel, these waters have been much extolled.” Dr. Beck says in Bell’s Work on Baths“ The Chittenango Waters are pearly white, with a temperature of 49° Fahr., and contain Carbonates and Sulphates of Lime, Sulphate of Magnesia, Chloride of Sodium, Muriate of Magnesia and vegetable matter, with Sulphureted Hydrogen and Carbonic Acid Gas. They are highly esteemed in many cases of disease, and will be much resorted to on account of their eligible location.” Dr. Chilton’s Analysis in 1852, confirms the above, both showing the quantity of the principal ingredients to be far in excess of that contained in any other known Mineral Spring, which is also proven by the large amount deposited daiiy in the cisterns and pipes containing the water. A New Mineral Spring, of a blueish color, has more recently been discovered, near the Hoteli whose waters have a remarkable tonic effect, and are found singularly useful in that variety of ail’ ments peculiar to females.

OR NO CHARGE. DR. KINGSLEY, OF 2\r. Y., Has discovered a perfect cure for Cancers without the use of the knife. Thousands of cases cured can testify to the efficacy of this plan of treatment. This preparation will destroy the specific nature of most Cancers, in from ten to sixty minutes. Even in those large Cancerous affections of the breast, from which so many females die annually, my specific is equally as effectual as in those smaller surface Cancers. Ninety-nine out of a hundred of all those persons who have died from Cancer, could easily have been cured. Cancer has been considered from time immemorial the greatest scourge of the human race ; but the time will come when all shall see that it is as remediable as any other disease. At the same time remedies are given to purify the blood and fortify the system against a renewed attack. In all cases, if the Cancer is not too far advanced, a perfect cure is warranted, or no charge. Most persons are greatly deceived in regard to the first symptoms and appearance of Cancer, considering it very painful from the commencement. This is a sad mistake, (causing the death of thousands,) there being but little or no pain until the Cancer is far advanced. The only symptoms for months, and in some cases even for years, is occasionally either a stinging, itching, smarting, burning, creeping or shooting sensation, and in some cases not even any of these. Nearly all of those kernels or lumps that occur in the female breast, and also those unnatural appearances in the form of crusts or warty excrescence, which appear in either sex on the face, lips, nose, eye lids, or any other part of the surface, are cancers. Cancer is very easily cured in its early stage, consequently it is of the very greatest importance that all thus afflicted should have immediate treatment; as thousands of very valuable lives have been lost from pure neglect, having been misguided by physicians having no knowledge of the disease, who, by calling it Scrofula, Erysipelas, Salt Rheum or some other non-terrifying disease, lull this unfortunate class in the cradle of ignorance, until upon the very verge of death, when, to hide such ignorance, the physician tells the patient that it has finally turned to Cancer, and cannot be cured. There is no such thing as turning to Cancer. Whatever ends in Cancer, began in Cancer. Be no longer deceived. If you have the slightest suspicion of trouble, seek immediate relief and thereby preserve life. Consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma, Heart Disease, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, Fits, St. Vitus1 Dance, Neuralgia, Scald Head, Piles, all Diseases of the Skin, Pimples, Scrofula or King’s Evil, Fever Sores, Spinal Diseases, Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Diabetes, Kidney Diseases, Gravel, and all Diseases peculiar to Males or Females, successfully treated. Warts, Corns, Bunions, Moles, Wens, Birth-Marks, Tumors &c., removed. Especial attention given to the treatment of Crooked Feet, Legs, Arms, Spine, Neck, and all other deformities. Cross Eyes straightened, Hare-Lips cured by an entirely new plan of operating. Operations for Stone m the Bladder, Polypus, Strangulated Hernia, Fistula, or the cure of False and Crooked Joints, and all deformities of the Eye Lids, Nose, Lips, Neck &c., resulting from Burns or Wounds, performed upon the most scientific principles. All Diseases of the Eye and Ear treated with very great success. Especial attention given to the treatment of all diseases originating from the errors of misguided Youth. Patients from a distance, except in Surgical and Cancer cases, by sending a full description of their symptoms, can have medicines sent by Mail or Express, and be treated at home. All letters promptly answered, and medicines ordered, immediately forwarded. The Doctor is a graduate with an experience of over fourteen years in the practice of medicine, twelve of which have been spent in Rome. N. B.—All persons troubled with Asthma should send for Dr. Kingsley’s ASTHMA SPECIFIC, which will relieve any case immediately.
