KIn'gSLE 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 Cancprous- affections of the breast, from wliich so many females die annually, my specific is^equally as etFectual as in those smaller surface Cauceri^. Ninety-nine out of a hundred of all those persone^who have died from Cancer, could easily have been cured. Cancer nal been considered from time immemorial the greatest scourge of the humSn race ; but the time will come when all shall see that it is as remediable as any other dis ease. At the same time remedies are given to purify the blood and fortlly 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 deceivetl 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,) thewe being but little or no ffaln until the Cancer is far advanced. , The only symptoms for months, and in some cases even for years. Is occa sionally 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, orany other part of the surface, are cancers. Cancer is veiy easily cured In Its early stage, consequently it Is of the very greatest Importance that all thus afflicted should have immediate treat ment ; 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 ignor ance, thephyslclan tells the patient that it has Imally 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.

GAJZHTTlSUEiRSolxxL-yleT County. County.— Since our history of the Press of Schuyler County was printed, we have received from the proprietor of the Watklns Express, the following notice of that paper: THE WATKINS EXPBESS is the lineal successor to the first paper published in the village of Watklns, N. Y., and traces its ancestry from the beginning as follows: In the year 1840, the Chemung Democrat, then piblished at Horseheads, was removed to Havana, where its publication was continued two years, and in .1842 was again removed to " Jeflterson," by which name the village of Watklns was then known: all three of the towns named then being within the bounds of Chemung County. Within a short time after the removal of the Dem/}crat to Jefferson, the name wfis changed to the Derrm- cratic Cltiem, the editor being J. I. HeMryx, now proprietor of the Cooperstown Re- publican, who continued In charge of the paper tiil 1860. In June of that year, W. B. Slawson & Co. undertook the publication of the Independmt Freeman, which, in 1S51, was changed to the Jefferson Eagle, succeeded, after a few months, by the WatJcins Family Visitor. In 1854 the office passed into the hands of S. M. Taylor, Esq., who called his paper the Watkins Republican. He was succeeded in the editorial chair by M. Ells, in 1856, the name of the paper remaining the same until 1863^hen Geo. D. A. Bridgman bought the office and changed the name to The ffatkins Weekly Union. In January 1864, the present proprietor of the paper, L. M. Gano, came into possession of the office, and once more changed the name, as well as the potitics of the paper, since which time it has been known as T/ie WatkiuB Express. In politics the paper is Eepub- llcan : aiming, while advocating the interests and principles of the party, to inculcate sound principles of integrity in all relations of life, and to ramish to its patrons a healthy, deserving, family journal.

CANCELLATION. In all cases where an adhesive stamp is used for denoting the stamp duty upon an instrument, the person iwingoraffixinK the same mnat write or inifrlBt thereupon in inA; the initiala of hia'name, and the- date (the year, month, and day) on which the same is attached or used. Each stamp should be separately cancelled'- When stamps are printed upon checks, &o., so that in filling up the instrument, the face of the stamp is and must necessarily be writ ten across, no other cancellation will be- re quired. All cancellation must be distinct and legi ble, and except in the case of proprietary stamps from private dies, no method of cancellation which differs from that above des'cribed can be recognized as legal and sufficient. PENALTIES. A penalty of fifty dollars is imposed upon every person who makes, signs, or issues, or who causes to be made, signed, or issu ed, ifiiy paper of any kind or description wliatever, or who accepts, negotiates, or pays, or causes to be accepted, negotiated, ¦ or paid, any bill of exchange, draft, or or der, or promissory note, for the payment of money, without the same being duly stamp ed, or having thereupon an adhesive stamp for denoting the tax chargeable thereon, cancelled in the manner required by law, with intent to evade the provisions of the revenue act. A penalty of two hundred dollars is im posed upon every person who , pays, nego tiates, or ofl"ers in payment, or receives or takes in payment, any bill of exchange or order for the payment of any sum of money drawn or purporting to be drawn in a for eign country, but payable in the United States, until the proper Stamp has been af fixed thereto. A penalty of fifty" dollars is imposed upon every person who iraudulently makes use of an adhesive stamp to denote the duty re quired by the rev.pnue act, without efl'ectu- ally cancelling and obliterating the same in the manner required by law. Attention is particularly called to the fol lowing extract from section 155, of the act (if June 30, 1864, as amended by the act of July 13, 1866 : "If any person shall wilfully remove or cause to be removed, alter or cause to be al tered, the cancelling or defacing marks on any adhesive stamp, with intent to use the same, or to cause tne use of the same, after it shall have been used' once, or shall know ingly or wilfully sell or buy such washed or restored stamps, or offer the same for sale, or give or expose the same to any per- 38 STAMP DUTIES. Pon tor use, or kno\(in:?ly use the same or prepare the same with intent for the far ther use thereof, or if any person sbaH knowingly and withowt lawful excuse (the proof wnereof shall lie on the person accus ed) have fn his poeseesion any vrashed, re stored, or altered stamps, which have been remored from any vellum, parchment, pa per, instrument or writing ; then, and in every such case, every person so offending;, and every perssui knowingly^ and wilfully aiding:, abetting, or assisting in committing any such offence'as aforesaiM, shall, on con- vMion thereof, * * * be punished by a fine not exceeding one thoiueand dollars, or bv imptisonment and confinement to hard labor not exceeding five years, or both, at the discretion ofthe courl." It is not lawful ta record any instrument, document, or paper req«ii¥«a by law to be stamped, or any copy theireof, unless a stamp or stamps ofthe prcmer amount have been affixed and csncellea in the nwnner required by law ; and mich instrument or copy and tne record thereof are utterly null and void, aud cannot be used or admitted as evidence in any corirt uHtil the defect has been cured as provided in spction 158. All willful violations of She law shoflild be reported to the United States District Attor ney within and for the diatilct where they are committed. GENERAL REMARKS, Revenue stamps may be used indiscrimi nately upon any of the mattcrra or tbiu^s enumerated in Schedule B, except propriCr tary and playing card stamps, for which a special use has been provided. Postage stamps cannot be used in pay ment of the duty chargeable on instru ments. The law does not designate which of the parties to an instrument shall furnish the neceseary stamp, nor does the Commission er of Internal Revenue assume to determine that it shall be supplied by one party rather than by another ; but if an instrument sub ject to stamp duty is issued without having the necesean^ stamps affixed thereto, it can- riot be recorded, or admitted, or used in ev idence, in any court, until a legal stamp or stamps, denoting the atnonnt of tax, shall have been affixedas prescribed by law, and the person who thus issues it is liable to a penalty, if he omits the stamps with an in tent to evade the provisions ofthe internal rev' nue act. The first act imposing a stamp tax upon certain specified instruments took effect, so far as said tax is concerned, October 1, 1862. The impression which seems to prevail to some extent, that no stainps are required upon any instruments issued in the States lately in insurrection, prior to the surren der, or prior to the establishment of collec tion districts there, is erroneous. Instruments issued in those States since October 1, 18t>2. are subject to the same tax es as similar ones issued at the same time in the other States. No stamp is necessary upon an instrument executed prior to October i,il8(>2, to make . it admissible- in evidence, or to entitle it to record. Certificates of loan in which there shall appear any written or printed evidence of an amount of money to be paid on demand, or at a time designated, are pubject to stamp duty as "promissory notes," When two or more persons join in the ex- ecisfiion of an in^trameut, the stamp to which the instrument ia liable under the law, may be affixed and cancelled by either of them ; and *'when more than one signature is affix ed to the same- psjper, one or more stamps may be affixed thereto, representing the whole amount of the stamp required fur such signatrarea." No stamp is required on any warrant of attorney accompanying a bond or note, when such Ixma or note has affixed thereto the stamp or stamps denoting the duty re quired ; and, whenever any bond or note is secured by mortgage, bist one stamp duty ia required on such papers— such stamp duty being the highest rate required for such in struments, or either of them. In such case- a note or memorandum of the value or de nomination of the stamp affixed should be made upon the margin or in the acknowl edgement of the instrument which is not stamped. Particulofr attention is called to the change in section 164, by striking out the words "oy used ;" the exemption thereun der is thus restricted to documents, *c., iss'Lted by the officers therein named. Also . to the changes in sections 162 and 158, by inserting the words "and cancelled in the manner required by law." J The acceirtor or acceptors of any bill of I exchange, or order for the payment of any : sum of money, drawn or purporting to be 1 dra-wn in any foreign country, but payable I in the United States, must, before paying or I accepting the same, place thereupon a 1 stamp indicating the duty. It is only upon conveyancea of realty sold that conveyance stamps are necessary. A deed of real estate made without valuable consideration need not be stamped as a conveyance; birt if it contains covenants. such, for instanre, asa covenant to warrant and defend the title, it-should be stamped as an agreement or contract. When a deed purporting to be a convey ance of realty sold, and stamped afcording- ly, is inoperative, a deed of confirmation, made simply to cure the defect, requires no stamp. In such case, the second deed should contain a recital ofthe facts, and should show the reasons for its execution. Partition deeds between tenants in com mon, need not he stamped as conveyances, inasmuch as there is no sale of realty, but merely a marking out, or a defining, of the boundaries of the part belonging to each : but where money or other valuable consid eration is paid by one co-tenant to another for equality of partition, there is a sale to the extent of such consideration, and the conveyance, by the party receiving it should be stamped acccirdingly. ' A conveyance ol lands sold for unpaid taxes, issued since August 1, 1860, by the officers of any county, town, or other niu STAMP DUTIES. 39 nicipal corporation in the discharge of their Btrictly olncial duties, is exempt from stamp tax. A conveyance of realty sold, subject to a mortgage, should be stamped according to the consideration, or the value of the prop erty urieneumbered. The consideration in such case is to be found by adding the amount paid for the equity of redemption to the mortgage debt. The fact that one part of the consideration is paid to the mortgagor and the other part to the mort gagee does not change, the liability of the conveyance. The stamp tax upon a mortgage is based upon The amount itis given to secure. The fact that the value of the property mortgag ed is less than that amount, and that conse quently the security, ia only partial, doea not change the liability of the inatrument. When, therefore, a second mortgage is giv en to secure the payment of a sum of mon ey partially secured by a prior mortgage up on other property, or when two mortgages Kpon separate property are given at the same time to secure the payment of the aame sum, each should be stamped as though it were the only one- A mortgage given to secure a surety from loss, or given for any purpose whatever, other than as aecurity for the payment of a definite and certain sum of money, la taxa- able only as an agreement or contract. The stamp duty upon a lease, agreement, memorandum, or contract for the nire, uae, or rent of any land, tenement, or portion thereof, is based upon the annual rent or rental value of the property leased, and the duty is the same whether the lease be for one year, for a term of years, or for the fractional part of a year only. Upon every assignment or transfer of a mortgage, a stamp tax is required equal to that imposed upon a mortgage for the amount remaining unpaid ; this tax is re quired upon every such transfer in writing, whether there is a sale of the mortgage or not ; but no stamp ia necessary upon the endorsement of a negotiable instrument, even though the legal effect of such indorse ment is to transfer a mortgage by which the instrument is secured. An assignment of a lease within the mean ing and intent of Schedule B, is an assign ment ofthe leasehold, or of some portion thereof, by the lessee, or by some person claiming by, from, or under him i such an assignment as subrogates the assignee to the rights, or some portion ofthe rights, of the lessee, or of the person standing in his place. A transfer by the lessor of his part of a lease, neither giving nor purporting to give a claim to the leasehold, or to any part thereof, but simply aright to the rents, &c., is subject to stamp tax as a contract or agreement only. The stamp tax upon a fire insurance policy is based upon the premium. Deposit notes taken by a mutual fire in surance company, not as payment of pre mium nor as evidence of indebtedness therefor, but to be used simply aa.a basis upon wtiich to make rateable assessments to meet the losses incurred by the company. should not be reckoned as premium in de termining the amount of stamp taxes upon the policies. When a policy of insurance properly stamped has been issued and lost, no stamp ia neceasary upon another issued by the same company to the same party, covering the same property, time, &c., aud designed simply to supply the loss. The second policj; should recite the loss of the first. An instrument which operates as the re newal of a jiolicy of insurance, is subject to the same stamp tax as the policy. When a policy of insurance is issued fqr a certain time, whether it be for one year only or for a term of years, a receipt for Eremium, or any other instrument which as the legal effect to continue the contract and extend its operation beyond thai time, re quires the same amount ofrevenue stamps as the policy itself; but such a receipt as is usually given for the payment of the monthly, quarterly, or annual premium, ia not a renewal within the meaning of the statute. The payment simply prevents the policy from expiring, by reason of non-_per- formance of its conditions ; a receipt given for such a payment requires a two-cent stamp, if the amount received exceeds twenty dollars, and a two-cent stamp only. When, however, the time of payment has passed, and a tender of the premium is not sufficient to bind the company, but a new policy or a new.contract in some form, with the mutuality essential to every contract, becomes necessary between' the insurer and the insured, the same amount of atampa should be used as that required upon the original policy. A permit issued by a life insurance com pany changing the terms of a policy as to travel, residence, -occupation, i 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 ia equal to 100 square Meters or about 4 square rods. THE LITER Is the nnit 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 abont equal to 1 quart, and is a standard in cubic, dry and liquid measures. D ^^ A cubic Meter (or Kiloliter) is called a stere, and is also usedas a standard in cer tain cubic measures. THE GRAM Is the Unit of weigM, and ia the weight at a cube of pure water, each edge ofthe cube being one one-hundredth of a Meter. Itls- about equal to 15}i grains. It is intended as the Standard in aS weights, and with, its divisions and multiples, to supersede taie use of what are now called Avoirdupois, Apothecaries and Troy Weights. Ilach of the foregoing Standards la divi ded decimally, and larger nnits are- also formed by multiples of 10, 100, &e. The successive subordinate parts are designa ted by the prefixes Deci, Centi and-MHlli; the successive multiples by Deka, Hecto, Kilo and Myria, ; . each having its own nu merical signification, as will oe more dear ly seen in the tables hereinafter gLvana The terms used may, at first sight, iave a formidable appearance, seem difQcult to pronounce, and to retain in memx>r^, and to be, therefore, objectionable ; bnt with a lit tle attention and use, the appi^ended dif ficulty will be found more apparent than real, as has been abundantly proved by ex perience. The importance, aJso, of con formity in the use of commerei^ 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 over balance the comparatively sJdght objection alluded to. 54 DECIMAL SYSTEM OF WEIGHTS AND MEA3UBES.

Slsconnt and Premium, When a person buys an article for $1,00— 20 i>er 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 transacuon where the sale or purchase of gold, silver, or currency is concerned, the following rules will apply in all cases. Rule lat. — To find premium when dis count is given: Multiply 100 by rate of discount and divide by 100, less rate of dis count. Rule 2d. — ^To find discount when pre mium is given. Multiply the rate of interest by 100, and divide by 100, plus the rate of premium. , Suppose A ha8^^140 in currency, which he wishes to exchange for gold, when gold is 27 per cent, premium, how much gold should he receive ? In this case the pre mium 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 tnfle more than 21 per cent, and that he should receive $110.60 in gold.5 pr ct.

Facta on Advertising. The advertisements iu an ordinary num ber of the London Times exceed 2,500. The annual advertising hills of one LcSidon firm are said to amount to $200,000: and three others, are mentioned who each annually expend for the purpose $50,000. The ex pense for advertising the eight editions of the "Encydopoedia Britannia" is said to have been $15,000. In large cities nothing is more common than to see large business establishments, which seem tohave an Immense advantage over all competitors, by the wealth, expe rience, 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 nave the fact that they sell snch and snch com modities known l^om one end of the land to the other. In other words, the establish ments advertise; the old ale of dignity.- The former are ravenous to pass out of ob scurity into publicity; the latter believe that flieir publicity is so obvious that it cannot be obscured. The first understand that they must thruat themselves upon public attention, or be disregarded; the second, having once obtained public atten tion, suppose they have arrested it perma nently; vrtiile, in f&ct, nothing is more char acteristic of the world than the ease with which it forgets. Stephen Girard, than whom no shrewder business man ever lived, used to aay : I have always considered advertising liber ally 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 pnblic 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 Presi dent's house at Waahio^on. The follow ing is a recipe for it; It is gleaned fTom the National Intelligencer, with some addi tional improvements learned by experi ments : Take half a bushel of nice un- slacked 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 wa ter ; 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 pre- -viously 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 ofhot water to the mixture, stir it well, and let it stand a few days cov ered from the dirt. It should be put on right hot ; for this purpose it can be kept in a kettle on a portaiile fiimace. It is said that about a pint of this mixture will cover a square yard upon the outside of a house if proper ly appued. Brushes more or less small may be used according to the neatness ofthe job required. It answers aa 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 yel low wash, bnt chrome goes ftarther, 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 dltBcult 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 he mixed vrith lime. The lime de stroys the color, and the color has an effect on the whitewaah, which makea 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 plenti fully 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 ob served. Hoir 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 covering their eyes with a blan ket 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 npon the expedi ent of having them harnessed as though go ing to their usual work; when, to his aston ishment, 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 oy slight agitation, add the following mixture: Take water, nine drachma; nitrate of potash (saltpetre) thirty-eight graina; and muriate of am monia (aal ammoniac) thirty-eight graina. Diasolve 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 after wards make a very small aperture in the cork with a red-hot needle. The bottle may then be hung up, or placed in any stationa ry position. By observing the different appearances which the materials assume, as the weather changes, it becomes an ex cellent prognostlcatorof a coming storm or ofa sonny sky. Iieech 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 ita habi tation 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 throet 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 he cov-r ered over with a piece of muslin. To Meabuee Qbain in a Bin.— Find the number of cubic feet, flrom which deduct one-fifth.

The above is sold as a cough syrup, and ia doing wonderful cures, and it is sold at a great profit to the manu facturers. Hour to Judge a Horse. A correspondent, contrary to old maxims, undertakes to judge the character of ahorse by outward appearances, and offers the fol lowing 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 be ing trained to anything. As respects snch horses, the more kindly you treat them the better you will be treat ed in return. Nor will a horse of this de scription stand a whip, if well fed. Ifyou want a safe horse, avoid one that is dish-faced. He niay be so far gentle as not to scare ; but he vnll have too much go- ahead In him to be safe with everybody. Ifyou want a fool, bnt a horse of great bottom, get a deep bfty, with not a white hair about him. If his face is a little dish ed, so much the worse. Let no man ride such a horse that is not an adept in riding —they are always tricky and unsafe. Ifyou want one that will never give out, never buy a largie, 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 snppose 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 gen tleness. ineasnrement of Hay in the Mow- or Stack,— It is often desirable, where conveniences foi* weighing are not at hand, to purchi^se and sell nay by measure ment. It is evident that no fixed rule will answer in all cases, as it would require more cubic feet at the top ofa mow than at the bottom. The general rule adopted by those who have tested it, is tH cubic feet of solid Timothy hay, as taken from mow or bottom of stack. The rule may be varied for upper part pf mow or itack according to pressure. 62 TWENTY YEAB CALENDAR. -A-lraanao or Calendar for 20 Years.

THIS COUNTY was formed from Tioga, March 29, 1836, and took its name from the principal river, Chemung, which signi fies " Big Horn," or " Horn in the Water." This name was given to the river on account of the immense number of deer's horns which were found in the water. A part of Schuyler County was taken off in 1854. It lies upon the south border of the State, is centrally distant 158 miles from Albany, and contains 406 square miles. The surface is principally a hilly upland, broken by the deep ravines of the streams. The highest points are from 400 to 600 feet above the valleys and from 1300 to 1500 feet above tide. The ridges extend in a general north and south direction, a,nd have steep declivities, in some places precipitous and broad rolling sum mits. A deep valley, extending south from Seneca Lake, divides the highlands into two general systems, and forms an easy commu nication between the Susquehanna Valley and the central parts of the State. The Chemung River flows south-east through the south part ofthe County, cutting the highlands diagonally. Wide alluvial flats ex tend along the river through nearly its whole course. These flats are bordered by steep hillsides, and are very productive. Catha rine Creek flows north through the central valley into Seneca Lake. The other streams are Post, Sing Sing, Newtown, Goldsmith, Wyn- koops and Cayuta Creeks, from the north ; and Hendy and Seely Creeks from the south ; all flowing into Chemung River. The val leys of these streams are generally narrow, and bordered by steep hills. The valleys of the smaller streams are mere ravines and guUeys. 64 CHEMUNG COUNTY. The rocks of the County belong chiefly to the shales and sand stones of the Chemung group. In the north part, along the ravines, the rocks of the Portage group are exposed. In several places the sandstone is quarried for building purposes, and for flagging, and is of an excellent quality. Bog iron ore and marl are found to some extent. The soil is a sandy and gravelly loam, intermixed with clay in some places. The valleys are covered with a rich deep al luvium. The highlands are better adapted to grazing than to tillage. Agriculture is the chief pursuit of the inhabitants. For many years lumbering was carried on to a great extent, 10,000,000 feet being floated down the Chemung and Susquehanna, from Elmira, annually. Since the disappearance of the fine forests, the attention of the people has been turned to stock raising, dairying and wool growing. Commerce and manufactures have received increased attention since the completion of the canals and railroads, though these are still subordinate to the agricultural interest. The County seat is located at Elmira, on Chemung River. Up on the organization of Tioga County, Elmira, then "Newtown," was made half-shire, and upon the formation of Chemung Co., in 1836, it was designated as the County seat, and the old county buildings were taken for the new County. The first county officers were Joseph L. Darling, First Judge ; Andrew G. Gregg, District Attor ney; Isaac Baldwin, County Clerk; Albert A. Beokwith, (S'Aeri^; and Lyman Covill, Surrogate. The old county buildings have with in a few years given place to new and commodious structures. The County Poor House is located upon a farm in the south east part of the town of Horseheads. The whole number of pau pers present from November 6th, 1866, to November 6th, 1867, was 166. The average number kept for the year was 63, at an av erage expense of $1.49 per week each. The whole amount ex pended for the support of the poor during the year was $4,904.50. The Chemung; Canal extends south from Seneca Lake, through the central valley, to Chemung River, at Elmira, forming a direct connection with the great chain of internal water navigation of the State. A navigable feeder from Corning, Steubei^ County, forms a junction with the canal, on the summit, at Horseheads village. Junction Canal extends several miles along the Chemung, affording navigation at points where the river is obstructed by rapids and nar^ rows. The Chemung Canal was authorized A^pril 15th, 1829, and its construction was begun the same year, and finished in 1833. The total lockages on the Canal and feeder are 516 feet, by fifty-three locks, and the original cost was $344,000. ' > The New York &Erie R.

The Williamsport and Elmira R. R. extends south, through South- port, into Pennsylvania, forming a direct line to Philadelphia. The first newspaper published in the County was The Telegraph, at " Newtown," (now Elmira.) It was issued at an early period by Prindle & Murphy. In 1816 it was issued as The Vidette, and subsequently issued by William Murphy. The Investigator was started at Elmira, in 1820, by Job Smith. In 1822 its name was changed to The Tioga Register, and in 1828, to THE ELMIRA GAZETTE. Its publication was continued by Mr. Smith, until 1831, when he was succeeded by Brinton Paine.

This expedition was organized for the special purpose of chastising the Indians and Tories, who, led by Brant and the Butlers, had been laying waste the settle ments of the whites, plundering and burning their houses, murder ing or carrying into captivity men, women and children, without regard to age, sex or condition. The most effectual way to check these barbarous incursions was supposed to be to send an army through the territory of the Six Nations, and, by fire and sword, teach them the power against which they were contending. The army of General Sullivan assembled at Tioga Point, August 22d, consisting of the brigades of Generals Clinton, Hand, Maxwell and Poor, together with Proctor's artillery and a corps of riflemen ; numbering in all about five thousand men. The march from Tioga Point was commenced August 26th. The movement of the expe dition had been so slow that the enemy were prepared to receive them. A short distance from Conwawah, where the city of Elmira now stands, and where the Indians had a considerable village, the enemy had thrown up works and were prepared to make a bold stand against the invaders. The Americans moved cautiously up the Chemung, having large flanking parties thrown out to guard against surprise by the enemy. On the march they destroyed a small Indian village, and on the 29th they discovered the enemy's works. The enemy were securely posted upon the east side of the river, upon a bend in the stream, which protected their right flank and rear, while their left rested upon a high ridge, which extended for some distance nearly parallel with the river. The artificial de fences of the enemy, consisting of fallen trees whose branches were clothed with foliage, together with the shrubs of oak and pine grpw ing upon the ground, afforded a good protection.against the attacks of the Americans. A vigorous attack in front was made by one division, while another attempted to turn the left flank of the enemy CBEMUNG COUNTY. 67 posted upon the ridge. For two hours the firing was incessant, the Indians fighting behind the shrubs and thickets, cheered on by their leader, Brant, who appeared at all points, at length became demoralized by the artillery, and Brant, seeing that the day was lost, raised the loud retreating cry, Oonah ! Oonah ! and savages and Tories hastily retreated across the river, pursued by the Amer icans. Considering the time occupied by the battle the loss was very small. Only five or six of the Americans were killed, and forty or fitly wounded ; some authorities setting the number even less than that. Nine Indians were found dead upon the field, the rest of the dead and wounded being carried off in the retreat. Sul livan's army rested upon the battle field that night, and the next morning continued their march towards Catharinestown. The march was a difficult and dangerous one, lying along a deep, nar row valley, traversed by a stream so tortuous that it had to be crossed several times, in some instances where the water was up to the waist. The enemy might have rallied upon the hills and greatly annoyed, if not destroyed or captured the invading foe ; but the Indians had become so alarmed at the artillery that they j could not be induced to make a stand. The army arrived at Cath- ; arinestown September 2d, but found the village deserted, its in- ; habitants having fled in terror. The village and fields were des troyed by the Americans the next day. From this point the work of destruction was carried on without interruption ; fields of corn, orchards of apples, pears and peaches, the growth of many years, fell before the hands of the invaders. The threat of Gen. Sullivan was fully carried out. " The Indians shall see," said he, " that there is malice enough in our hearts to destroy everything that con tributes to their support." The Cayugas and Senecas had made considerable progress in civilization, had large villages, and culti vated fields and orchards, and their houses exhibited many of the indications of civilized life. So great was the destruction and de vastation made that the Indians afterwards called Washington "The Town. Destroyer," fully understanding that the expedition was made by his order. Gen. Sullivan did not proceed to Niagara, as he at first intended, but after reaching the Genesee Valley, re turned. The army arrived in the valley of Catharine's Creek, on the return march, September 24th, and the forage becoming short, Gen. Sullivan ordered a large number of the horses killed. The skulls of these animals being afterwards placed along the road, gave the name to the village in the vicinity, and subsequently to the town. The next morning the news was received of a declara tion of war by Spain against Great Britain, and the occasion was icelebrated with every demonstration of joy. Five oxen were killed, one delivered to each brigade, and one to the artillery and staff, with which to make merry. 08 CBEMUNG COUNTY. A portion of this County was included in the Watkins & Flint Tract, which embraced also parts of Schuyler and Tompkins. The southern part of the County was included in a Royal grant ma-ie previous to the Revolutionary war. It was surveyed in 1788, by Commissioners of the Land Office, James Clinton, J. Hathorn and J. Cantine, as Chemung Township, and embraced 205 lots. The first settlements were made in 1788-90, by emigrants from Pennsylvania and New Jersey, most of whom were with General Sullivan in his expedition against the Indians. They settled along the valley of the Chemung River, at Elmira, Southport and Big Flats. The early settlers were subject to the usual hardships and privations incident to a new country. Through energy and perse verance the wilderness became a fruitful field, roads and bridges were built and the luxuries of civilized life were placed within the reach of all. Canals and railroads were subseqently built, opening avenues to the east and west, giving them an easy and rapid com munication with all the great thoroughfares and business centers of the country. Manufacturing was introduced, giving employment to a large number of persons, and now the County is one of the most prosperous in the State. When the news of the fall of Fort Sumter, and the Proclama tion of the President calling for volunteers, flashed across the wires from the Atlantic to the Pacific, the loyal sons of Chemung rallied to the support of the old Flag, showing that they were not unwor thy sons of illustrious sires, who fought to establish the Govern ment which they were now called upon to defend against armed treason and rebellion. It is to be regretted that we have not the statistics at hand to show how many from this County served in the war against the Rebellion. Since we are unable to do this, it must suffice to say that Chemung was not behind the other counties in furnishing men and means, as the battle fields and prison pens of the South abundantly testify. Amid the excitements of party strife, men may forget their duty to their country, but its brave defenders will live in the hearts of all true and loyal citizens ; and as tbe record of their deeds shall be transmitted from generation to generation, it will form a more enduring monument than the most imperishable marble. As we now honor the founders of the Re public, so will future generations honor its defenders. GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 69 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS.

The Che mung has several tributariies'frpm the north, the principal of which is Sing Sing Creek. ' Upon the.hills the soil is a slaty loam, and in the valleys a gravelly loam, very productive. Tobacco is raised to some extent upon thciflats. The' cultivation of thiswas commenced in 1850, by Sanford Elmore, from Connecticut, and since that its cultivation has been continued. In 1867, Mr. Mundy raised about twenty acres, averaging about 150O pounds to the acre. It was «oild at an average price of fifteen cents a pound. Big Flats, (p. v.) situated on the N. Y. & Erie R.

BLMIRA CITY was formed from Elmira and Southport, April 7, 1865. It was incorporated as a village March 3, 1815, as "Newtown," and its name was changed April 21, 1828. It is situ ated on Chemung River, chiefly upon its north bank. The city contains the County buildings, four b^nks, two daily and two weekly papers, a book and job printing office, twelve churches, a Jewish synagogue, a female college, a water cure establishment and sev eral large manufacturing establishments. The population of the city in 1865 was 13,130. It is rapidly increasing and is now va riously estimated at fifteen to twenty thousand. The Elmira Female College was the first one of the kind estab lished in the State. It was opened in October 1855, under the charge of Mrs. Dunlap, an accomplished lady and experienced teacher. The design of the institution was to afford to ladies a more extensive course of study than is usually offered in semina ries and apademies. The College has enjoyed a good degree of prosperity, and its founders and patrons are etcouraged to continue to labor in its behalf. It is not sectarian in its character, but has in its Board of Trustees, members of the leading Christian denom inations of the State. The college owes its financial success to the liberality of Sinieon Benjamin, Esq., the able and generous Treas urer of the Board of Trustees. He has made donations to the In stitution, amounting in the aggregate to nearly $60,000. Since preparing this article, the sad intelligence comes to us that Mr. Benjamin has finished his work on earth, and gone to his reward. The public schools are graded and in a flourishing condition. The whole number of pupils oh the school register for 1867 was 2,832, and the number of telphers employed, forty-four. The whole cost of tuition for each scholar in the schools during the same year was $10,35. J%e Elmirqi Academy of Sciences is an organization for t}ie pro motion of scientific investigations. Through the liberality of the citizens, an Observatory has been , erected* containing a telescope, a sidereal clock ^nd other apparatus for astronomical observa tions. Among the manufactories worthy of notice is the establishment of the Elmira Boiling Mill Company. It was incorporated in 1860, 74 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. and immediately erected spacious buildings which have been in creased from time to time to keep pace with the increasing busi ness of the Company. The Company manufacture railroad and merchant bar iron, and give employment to about three hundred men. The Clinton Woolen Mills Company was organized in 1868, and purchased the mill and machinery of the Elmira Woolen Manufac turing Company, and are carrying on the manufacturing business. Messrs. D. & R. Pratt, now interested in the business, wereHhe pioneers of the County in this branch of manufacturing^ having in troduced the first power-loom into the County. Extensive railway car shops have been established here. The saw manufactory of Andrews & Burbage is very extensive, making all kinds and sizes for mill and hand use. The Southern Tier Orphans^ Home. This institution had its ori gin in the " Elmira Phoenix Hospital Aid Association," organized in October 1864. Its first object was to care for soldiers' families. An industrial department supplied sewing to those who were able to labor, and homes were provided for those who had none. To carry out the objects of the Association, it was fpund necessary to have a place where the sick women and little children could be properly cared for. To accomplish this, efforts were made to raise money by subscription for the erection of a building where cheap rent and employment might be given to soldiers' families. The name of the S,pciety was now changed to the " Elmira Ladies Re lief Association." Two thousand dollars were raised by subscrip tion, which, with an appropriation from the Government, enabled the Association, January 1, 1866, to purchase the house and grounds now occupied, being about three-fourths of an acre. The house was soon opened and filled to its utmost cajiacity with, sick adults and little children. Soon after the close of the war it was decided to change the character of the institution, and make it an Orphan Asylum, and it received the name of the Southern Tier Orphans Home. In the fall of 1867, the building was so enlarged as to ac commodate thirty. Various plans have been resorted to with suc cess in order tp support this everchanging family ; such as public suppers, tableaux, concerts and lectures. The Legislature have each year granted a small appropriation ; citizens send in clothing, provisions, furniture, and sometimes money. Mr. and Mrs. Bur- lingame are Superintendent and Matron, Mrs. David Decker, Pres ident ; Mrs. P. A. Lafrance and Mrs. A. Robertson, Vice Presi dents ; Mrs. Luther Caldwell, Corresponding Secretary ; Mrs. J. B. Dunning, Recording Secretary and Mr. N. P.Fassett, Treasurer. More than one hundred have been received at the Institution, most of whom have been provided with good homes. About twenty are now enjoying the advantages of the Institution. A sabbath GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 75 and day school are kept in a small building on the premises. Though the Institution has been supported chiefly by the citizens of Elmira and vicinity, excepting appropriations from the State, its doors are opened to the needy in the southern tier of counties in the State. The first settlement of the town was made by Colonel John Hendy, in 1788, near the present site of Elmira City. He came up .the river from Wilkesbarre, Penn., in a canoe. Soon after his arrival he planted a field of corn, and during the summer spent considerable time in exploring the region for a suitable place for a permanent settlement. Among other early settlers were Christian and Peter Loup, John Conkle, James Cameron, William Seely, John Miller, Caleb Baker, Thomas Hendy and Mr. Marks. The earliest settlers purchased their land of the Clintons. Col. Hendy purchased eight hundred acres of James Clinton, for one shilling an acre. The place was surveyed by James Clinton, Gen. John Hath orn and John Cantine, Commissioners. In 1791, an Indian Coun cil was held at Newtown Point. The Indians assembled in great numbers, not less than twelve hundred being present ; among them were some of their most noted Chiefs. The object of the assembly was to form a treaty with the United States Government. Col. Timothy Pickering, a Revolutionary patriot, represented the Gov ernment. The treaty was negotiated under a tree, which was sub sequently known as the " Old Council Tree." Dr. Amos Park was the first physician, and was also a preacher. The Kline House, was one of the first hotels, kept by a man named Stoner. The first representative to the State Legislature was Hon. Vincent Matthews, who was elected to the Assembly in 1794- 95, and to the Senate, from the Western District, in 1796, in which he served till 1802. The first merchants were Cyrus Hallenbeck and Daniel Cruger. The first gristmill was built by Brinton Paine and William Dunn. General Matthew Carpenter built a sawmill, and a wool carding and cloth dressing mill at an early day. In 1797, Louis Phillippe, and two French noblemen, visited this place. They came on foot from Canandaigua, where they had spent some time, having letters of introduction from Thomas Morris to Henry Tower, Esq. Mr. Tower entertained his distinguished guests for several days, after which they went to Harrisburg, in a boat fitted up for the purpose. The first church (Presbyterian,) was organized in 1795, by Rev. Daniel Thatcher. In 1861 Elmira was designated as a place of rendezvous for the volunteers who cheerfully offered their services in defence of their country against the assault of traitors. Barracks were erected, and here assembled the volunteers from Central and Western New York, to await the organization of regiments, to receive arms. 78 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. equipments and supplies for the active duties to which they were subsequently called. Among those who offered their services were some of the descendants of the former owners of the soil, the children of the Six Nations. In 1864, a military prison was established here, and about 12,000 prisoners, chiefly from North Carolina, were furnished with quarters. Though they were well cared for, received comfortable food, clothing and medical attend ance, nearly three thousand of them fell victims to disease, and were buried in Woodlawn Cemetery. March 18th, 1864, while the Sanitary Fair was in successful operation, a terrible accident occurred that sent a thrill of horror through the whole community, and shrouded in gloom the hearts of all. The- First Presbyterian Church, in which the Fair was held, took fire while it was being lighted for the evening. The festoons of evergreen which decorated the church, had become dry, and so rapidly the flames leaped from festoon to festoon that in a few minutes the whole interior was in flames. But few persons ' were in the church at the time, or the loss of life must have been great ; as it was, two only perished in the flames, though others were seriously injured in their endeavors to rescue from a terrible fate their friends who were exposed to imminent peril. JEBIN was formed from Chemung, March 29th, 1822. In 1854 a part of VanEtten was taken ofT It extends from near the center of the County to the north border. The surface is an up land, hilly, and broken by the deep and narrow valleys of the streams. The streams are small, the principal being Baker's, Baldwin's, Wynkoop's and Newtown Creeks. There is a fine sul phur spring in the south part ofthe town, on Baker's Creek. The soil is a gravelly loam, tolerably productive, but better adapted to grazing than to tillage. Lumber is manufactured to some extent, and not more than half of the surface is under improvement. Erin and State Boad are post offices. The first settlement was made in 1817, by Robert Park and John Banfield. Jesse L.

HORSEHEADS was formed from Elmira, February 17th, 1854. It is an interior town, lying near the centet of the County; The surface in the east part is hilly, and in the ¦v^est rolling and level. The summits of the hills are from 600 to SOOfeet above Seneca Lake, and the summit level of the Chemiing Canal at Horseheads is 443 feet above the same. Newtown Creek and its branches are the principal streams. The soil is a gravelly loam, of good quality. Tobacco has been cultivated to considerable extent for several years. Sorseiieads (p. v.) was incorporated May I5th, 1837, as Fair- port, and its name changed April I8th, 1845. It contains five churches, viz: Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist, Episcopal and Roman Catholic; two flouring mills, one steam saw and planing mill, one brick yard, a woolen factory, a foundry and machine shop, two carriage shops, and several other manufactories. The " Empire Mills", and the " Horseheads Mills" are each capable of manufacturing about 800 bushels daily. The " Kline Iron Works" is one of the most extensive establishments in this part of the State, for the manufacture of mill irons and machinery, building fronts, fences and agricultural implements. The brick manufactory of Mr. Benjamin Westlake is one of the largest in the State. It contains five machines, each capable of turning out 50,000 bricks daily. The various kinds of brick manu factured here are of the best quality. Mr. Westlake is prepared to fill all orders at short notice. The Chemung navigable feeder, from Corning, intersects the canal at this place, affording facilities for the transfer of freight to all parts of the country. Breesport, (p. v.) situated in the eastern part, contains two churches and about 400 inhabitants. It also contains a large steam saw mill, and is largely engaged in the lumbering business. Mr. Richard Hetfield, of this town, is extensively engaged in the manufacture of Elderberry wine. He cultivates his berries, and makes about 100 barrels per year. It sells for about $2.00 per gallon. The first settlement was made in 1789, by John Breese, from New Jersey. He built a log house a short distance below the village, on the ea^t side of the road leading from the river to Sen eca Lake. While Gen. Sullivan was encamped at this place, he caused a large number of condemned horses to be shot. The Indi ans afterwards collected the bones of the heads and placed them along the path, and from that circumstance the place received the name of Hor'sehfeads. In 1791, Jonathan S. Conklin, Nathaniel Huntington, Asa Guil- dersleve, and a family named Gilbert, arrived and settled in this 78 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. vicinity. Soon afteS, a company from Orange County, New Jer sey, among whom were James, Ebenezer and John Sayre, pur chased 1 ,400 acres of land, covering the site of the village, and set tled on it. From Wilkesbarre, Penn., their goods were poled up the river on a flatboat, while the women aud children, on horse back, followed along the banks. The first birth was that of Susanna Conklin, in 1792 ; the first marriage that of William Dunn and Mary Sayre ; and the first death that of Susanna Conklin. The first school was taught by Amelia Parkhurst, in a log house. Solomon More built the first tannery, and Vincent Conklin kept the first inn. The first grist mill was erected by Lewis Breese. The first church (Presb.) of Horseheads was organized in 1832, and in April 1833 Rev. Ethan Pratt was installed pastor. In August 1862, a disastrous fire oc curred in the village of Horseheads, which destroyed property to the amount of $75,000. Mrs. Sarah Jackson, now in the 80th year of her age, is said to be the first white woman born in the County. The population of the town in 1865 was 2,838 ; its area is 21,- 880 acres. The town contains ten school districts, employing fifteen teach ers. The whole number of persons between five and twenty-one years of age was 1,111, the average attendance during the last year was 337, and the amount expended for schools $4,881.53. SOUTHPORT was formed from Elmira, April 16, 1822, and a part of Ashland was taken off in 1867. It is the south-west corner town of the County. The surface is chiefly a hilly upland, broken by the deep valleys of the streams. Chemung River form ing a part of the north boundary, is the principal stream ; it is bor dered by broad, fertile alluvial flats. Seely Creek receives as tributaries South, Bird and Mud Lick Creeks. Hendy Creek flows along the north border. The soil upon the hills is a slaty loam, and in the valleys a fine quality of gravelly loam. Southport (p. V.) is situated in the north-east part, and contains two churches, several mills and manufactories, and about 200 in habitants. Seely Criek, in the central part, is a post office. Webbs Mills (p. o.) is a hamlet in the southern part. The first settlement was made at Southport in 1789, by Abraham Miller, from Pennsylvania. He served as Captain ia the army during the Revolution and was appointed First Judge of Tioga County, by Governor Clinton, in 1791. The first sawmill was erected by Colonel Miller, on a branch of Seely Creek ; the first gristmills were erected by David Gris- wold and Solomon Bovier, and the first factory by Charles Evans, GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 79 at Southport. John and Timothy Smith, Lebeus Hammond, Wil liam Jenkins and Rufus Baldwin, were some of the other early set tlers. The population of the town in 1865 was 3,412, and its area is 28,- 969 acres. There are sixteen school districts, employing sixteen teachers. The whole number of persons between five and twenty-one years of age, during the last year, was 926 ; the average attendance 270, and the amount expended for school purposes was $4,705.49. VANETTEN, named from James B. Van Etten, was formed from Erin and Cayuta, April 17th, 1854. It is situated in the north-east corner of the County. The surface is a hilly upland. Cayuta Creek flows south-east through the center, and re ceives as tributaries Jackson and Langford's Creeks from the north, and Baker's Creek from the south. The soil is a clay loam upon the hills and a gravelly loam in the valleys. Van Ettenville, (p. v.) situated in the east part of the town, con tains three churches and about twenty houses. Van Etten is a post office in the western part. The first settlements were made along the valley of Cayuta Creek in 1795, by Alexander, Benjamin, Ennis, Peter, Jacob, Emanuel and Isaac Swartwood, from New Jersey. From 1795 to 1800, Cayuta Flats, at and near Van Ettenville, was settled by persons from the Delaware River, among whom were James Van Etten, John and David Hill, Isaac and Levi Decker, Samuel, James, Daniel and Joshua Westbrook, John Lattimore, and a Mr. Johnson and Cramer. In 1802, Harmon White, from Litchfield, Conn., David and Gabriel Jayne, from New Jersey, settled on a branch of Cayuta Creek. Most of these settlers were men who had served in the army during the war, two of whom, James Van Etten and Isaac Decker, were wounded by musket balls, which they carried to their graves. Flanders and Skaats kept the first store at VanEttenville ; Isaac Swartwood erected the first gristmill in 1803, and Jacob Swart wood opened the first inn in 1801. The first church (Bap.) was formed by Rev. Ebenezer Jayne, the first settled minister. The population in 1865 was 1,485; its area is 24,787 acres. There are fourteen school districts, employing fifteen teachers. The whole number of persons between five and twenty-one years of age during the last school year was 521 ; the average attendance 139, and the amount expended for school purposes $1,963.73. VETERANwas formed from Catharine, April 16, 1823. It is situated on the north line of the County, west of the center. The surface is chiefly a hilly upland. Catharine Creek flows north 80 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. along the west border, affording numerous mill sites. The other streams are Newtown and Beardsley Creeks. The soil is fertile, being a gravelly loam ; in some places however it is clayey. Millport, (p. V.) situated in the north-west part of the town, on the Northern Central R. R., and Chemung Canal, contains two churches, three large flouring mills, a sash and blind factory, a bed stead factory, a cabinet shop, a foundry, a hotel, half a dozen stores and several mechanic shops, and a population of about 800. Sullivanville, (p. v.) in the south-east part, contains a church, two hotels, two wagon shops, a stave factory and about 200 inhabitants. Pine Valley, (p. v.) is situated on the Northern Central R. R., and the Chemung Canal, and contains a hotel, two stores, a black smith shop and a shoe shop. The Free Will Baptists are erecting a church here. Pine Grove is a post office. The first settlements were made about the commencement of the century, in the north part ofthe town, by immigrants from Connec ticut ; and in the south part, by immigrants from Pennsylvania. Among those from Connecticut may be named E. Mallary and son, Eli and David Banks,, and families named Meeker, Baldwin and Parsons. Theodore Vallean, D. Shaffer, N. Botsford and B. Lock- esby came from Pennsylvania. E. Crandall, kept the first store, at Millport, and Daniel Parsons kept the first inn. G. Bennett erected the first sawmill, on Catha rine Creek, below Millport. The first church (M. E.) was formed in 1817. In the summer of 1857 a very destructive flood occured upon the stream, sweeping away every dam upon it, and every lock upon the canal, from Horseheads to Seneca Lake. The whole valley was flooded, and at Millport and other places along the stream, people were obliged to flee for their lives. In 1865 the town contained a population of 2,429, and its area is 22,775 acres. There are seventeen school districts, employing nineteen teachers. The whole number of persons between five and twenty-one years of age was 891 ; the average attendance 275, and the amount ex pended for schools $4,161.39. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES. 81 BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES. [The following sketches of the lives of some of the early settlers of this County, and incidents in their personal history, are present ed as reminiscenses of the early times, not unworthy of a place in a work like this.] COL. HENDY. CoL. John Hewdy, the first settler in the County, was born in Wyoming, Penn., September 3d, 1757. He enlisted in the army at the age of seventeen, and was in the battles at Bunker Hill, Princetown, Trenton, Monmouth and other places. He served the whole time under Washington, and rose to the rank of Captain. After leaving the army he returned to Wilkesbarre and engaged in farming, having married a Miss Baker. He subsequently removed to Tioga Point, where he remained until 1788, when he came to Chemung County, engaged in farming, and continued to reside here until his death, a period of more than fifty years. He re moved the first shovel-ful of dirt in the excavation of the Chemung Canal, a work in which he was greatly interested. During the war of 1812-15 he raised several companies, but they were not called into the service. In 1789 he received a commission of Captain of a militia company, in the town of Chemung, and sub sequently that of Second Major of a regiment in the County of Tioga. In 1803 he received a commission of Lieut.-Colonel of the same regiment, from Governor George Clinton. He was buried in the old cemetery, but his remains were subsequently removed to Woodlawn Cemetery, and a suitable monument erected over them. Col. Hendy was a man greatly respected and esteemed for his honesty, integrity and kindness of heart. WILLIAM HOFFMAN. William Hoffman was born in the town of Northumberland, Pennsylvania, about the year 1777. When about nineteen years of age, he left his home to seek his fortune among the wild's of Chemung County. Embarking with his scanty effects' in a boat, 8S BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES. with his own strong arm he forced a passage up the Susquehanna and Chemung, penetrating the wilds and solitude of the primeval forests, with only here and there an indication of that spirit of im provement which subsequently became so marked a feature of this beautiful valley. In 1798 Newtown numbered twenty-four houses, with a cash value of about six thousand dollars; He at first car ried on the business of hatter, his shop standing where Hubbell's furniture store now stands. Soon after he purchased a large tract of land, extending from Main street far above the old family home stead on Water street. This was the foundation of the wealth that subsequently surrounded his declining years, and afforded every comfort that wealth could procure. Tkough he bargained for his land at a higher price than many of his neighbors paid, he fulfilled to the letter every part of the contract. The greater portion of his life was devoted to farming pursuits, and to him more than to any other may be attributed the early success of the farming inter ests in the Chemung valley. Mr. Hoffman was scrupulously hon est, kind and obliging to the poor, and lenient to those indebted to him. As a friend, kind and true ; and as a citizen, faithful to every trust reposed in him. He died July 4th, 1867, nearly ninety years of age, greatly esteemed and lamented, not only by a large circle of relatives, but by the whole community in which be had lived so many years. JOHN SUFFERN. Another of the early settlers whose names are held in grateful remembrance by their posterity, is that of John Scffern. He was born in the north of Ireland, his ancestors having emigrated from Scotland to escape the persecution that followed the Reform ation of John Knox. In tJie seventeenth year of his age he came to America, and after remaining in New York city for a time, came to Chemung County, on horseback, accompanied by a single companion. This journey was made in 1804, through forests in habited by wild beasts and Indians, through swamps and across streams, with very few indications of civilized life. At Chenango Forks, where Brainard had established a mission among the Indi ans, was a small tavern, where they met travelers going east, and exchanged letters with them, to their respective friends. On their arrival at Newtown, they put up at a tavern kept by John Davis, at the Ferry, now the corner of Lake and Water streets. After exploring the region, he settled on a lot, where he remained for fifty-three years. Possessing a vigorous constitution, and indomit able energy, he commenced his labors, and in a few years had the satisfaction of seeing the wilderness "blossom as the rose." In disposition he was frank and kind hearted, ever ready to lend a REMINISCENCES. 83 helping hand to the needy and the distressed. His life was an active and useful one, and its close peaceful and happy. His exam ple is more to be prized than silver and gold, and one to which the rising generation may be pointed, as worthy of their imitation. REMINISCENCES In the Lives of some of the Early Settlers. Mr. Lebbus Hammond, one of the early settlers of the Chemung Valley, came from Luzerne Co., Penn. In the spring of 1781, he left his home near Wilkesbarre, in search of a horse which had strayed away. He directed his course up the river, about ten miles, to where he had formerly lived. Here he found his horse, as he expected, and after making a bridle of hickory withes, started for home. When within about four miles of his home, he discov ered several moccasin tracks in the road ; fearing that a party of In dians were near, he listened for a few minutes and then started off at a brisk trot. He had proceeded but a short distance when two Indians sprang from behind a tree, seized his horse by the bri dle, and dragged him to the ground. After a short consultation in the Indian language, they led him into the woods and tied him to a tree, with his hands made fast behind him. The Indians then left him for about an hour and then returned with two other prisoners, a Mr. Bennett and his son, with whom Mr. Hammond had con versed but a short time previous to his capture. They were accom panied by four other Indians, and immediately commenced their march up the Susquehanna River, compelling Mr. Bennett to carry their baggage. They traveled thirteen miles that evening, and camped in an old building on the bank of the river. The prisoners, weary as they were, and faint and hungry, were compelled to lie down with nothing to eat. Previous to their lying down, an old Indian, who appeared to be their leader, cut l3iree poles, and having compelled the prisoners to lie down, placed the poles across them, and three of the Indians lay down on each end of the poles, to prevent h e escape of the prisoners. Here they remained all night and un til ten o'clock the next day, when a party of Indians came in canoes 84 REMINISCENCES. from the opposite side of the river and took them over. When they reached the shore, each of the prisoners was supplied with a large piece" of jerked venison, which was eagerly devoured. They then proceeded up the river, and at night encamped upon its bank, being secured in the same manner as on the previous night. The next morning the march was continued up the river. The melting snow had raised the streams which they were compelled to cross, but still they pressed on, till they reached a creek which* the Indians called Mashoppin ; here they killed a deer and carried the meat with them. The creek was very much swollen, and they were compelled to proceed up the stream some distance before they could cross. Hav ing crossed, they proceeded down the opposite bank to within half a mile of its junction with the Susquehanna, where they encamped. While they were roasting their venison, 'the leader of the Indians, who spoke very g#od English, entered.into conversation with Ham mond, about the war ; asked him if he knew Lieut. Boyd, and on receiving an affirmative answer, brought forward Boyd's sword, saying, " Boyd a brave man, he as good a soldier as ever fought against the red men." This Indian commanded the party which massacred Lieut. B. and his party, only one of whom escaped. Boyd had been sent out by General Sullivan with a scouting party, when he was taken prisoner by the Indians and tortured in the most inhuman manner. Hammond knowing that it would be death to him to express the detestation which he felt at the account, re strained his wrath, and very soon lay down, secured as he had been on the two previous nights. During the night the wind changed, and it became so cold that the prisoners nearly perished. At day break the Indians ordered the prisoners to build a fire, and setting one of the Indians to guard, the others lay down and soon fell asleep. The guard took the head of the deer which they had killed on the previous day, and with a spear held it in the fire to roast, and threw a blanket over his head and shoulders to shield him from the cold, After the prisoners had warmed themselves, they asked permission to go to the creek and wash ; the request was granted. After they had washed, they determined to make an effort to escape, as it was the most favorable opportunity they would probably have. To de ceive the old Indian who was on guard, Hammond was to place himself on the opposite side of the fire and engage him in earnest conversation, while Bennett and his son were to come up behind the Indian and seize the guns and spears. At a given signal, Ben nett drove the spear through the body of the old Indian, who leaped across the fire, uttering a most terrific yell. Hammond sprang across the fire, seized a tomahawk and buried it in the brain of the Indian who had commanded the party which massacred Boyd and REMINISCENCES. 85 his men ; another blow sent a second Indian into the fire ; at a third blow he buried the tomahawk between the shoulders of another, who sprang away M'ith it sticking in his shoulders. Bennett having lost his spear at the commencement of the affray, seized a gun and despatched one of the Indians by beating out his brains with the butt. Unfortunately three of the guns were empty or not one of the Indians could have escaped. This rendered the boy almost useless, he having made three attempts to shoot, but with an empty gun. One of the Indians escaped unhurt, and another with an ugly gash between his shoulders made by the tomahawk. Gathering up the blankets, guns and sword, they commenced their retreat. They proceeded up the Mashoppin about three miles, where they waded across, taking ' the boy between them to prevent his being swept away by the stream, which was very high and dangerous to cross. The morning was cold, and they had proceeded but a short distance before their clothes were frozen so stiff that it was with difficulty that they could travel. On their way they kept a considerable dis tance from the river, being able to travel upon the crust, and at the same time rendering it more difficult to track them. They arrived at home on the evening of the sixth day after their capture, to the great joy of their families and neighbors, having traveled three days without a mouthful of food. Lieut. Boyd's sword, which Hammond had taken from the Indian, was subsequently presented to Col. John Boyd, brother of the de ceased. Hon. John G. McDowell. — Another whose name is intimately connected with the early history of the County is John G. Mc Dowell. He was born in Chemung, February 27th, 1784. During the active years of his life he was much engaged in public duties, was a member of the State Legislature for several years, and was the first President of the Chemung Canal Bank ; a man possessing a strong and energetic mind, a great fund of common sense, and was universally esteemed. His wit and humor made him a universal favorite wherever he went. Many amusing anecdotes are related of him, one of which we find related in the "Reminiscences of the Southern Tier," published in the Knickerbocker Magazine in 1856: " Soon after the New York and Erie Railroad Company commenced operations, the Judge had occasion to visit Binghamton on busi ness, and took his passage on the railroad. When ready to return home, he took his seat on the train going west, which would pass through Chemung. The Conductor called for the fare, when the Judge handed him the amount required, stating that his destination was Chemung. It seems that some of the employees of the road, in preparing a list of stopping places and rates of fare, not possess- 86 REMINISCENCES. ing the love of ancient names which characterized the Judge, had left off the name of Chemung and substituted what to them seemed to sound better, that of Springville. The Conductor had but lately been placed upon this route, and the name of Chemung was as new to him as that of Springville was to the Judge. Looking over his list, he told the Judge there was no such place as Che mung. Imagine the surprise of the Judge at this announcement. ' No such place as Chemung I Why, sir, the name of Chemung was known, loved, honored and cherished by the early settlers, who now sleep in its soil, long years ago.' The Conductor asked on which side of Waverly it was located. This made matters much worse. 'Young man, you have much to learn; Chemung was known and had become a part of the history of the country long before Waverly or the New York and Erie Railroad were ever thought of. You had better ask on which side of Chemung Waverly is. Sir, I will teach you and your employers that there is a religion in old names. What right have you to change this loved and honored name, rich in historic associations, for the un meaning one of Springville ? I will have it restored.' He then paid his fare to Elmira, twelve miles beyond Chemung, which he said should be the place of his arrival and departure until the Erie Railroad Company had learned where Chemung was. It is need less to say that the energy and perseverance of the Judge soon restored the time-honored Chemung to its appropriate place on the Captain Daniel McDowell, the father of the Judge, settled on the form known as McDowell's Flats, upon which the son resided for many years. He was a Scotchman by birth, was taken prison er at Shawnee by the Indians in 1782, and taken to Niagara, where he was compelled to run the gauntlet. He passed through that terrible ordeal and escaped death, and was subsequently banished to Quebec, where, after remaining in prison for a year, and endur ing many cruelties, he was liberated. While on his way to Niag ara as a prisoner, the route lay along the Chemung valley, near the present railroad depot in the town of Chemung. Here his captors halted at a spring to quench their thirst. Capt. McDowell was so impressed with the beauty of the scene, the broad flats, with here and there patches of corn, and the abundance of wild grapes, plums and other fruits, that he determined, if ever released, he would settle in this fertile and inviting location. This determin ation, as we have seen, was carried out. The Indians gave him a name very expressive of his character physically and mentally, Keto, meaning " man of iron."

THIS COUNTY was formed from Steuben, Chemung and Tompkins, April 17th, 1854, and named in honor of General Philip Schuyler. It is situated upon both sides of the southern extremity of Seneca Lake; is eeiitrally distant 160 miles from Albany, and contains 352 square miles. Its surface generally is an undulating and hilly upland, divided into two distinct ridges by the deep val ley of Seneca Lake and its inlet. The highest land in the County rises from 600 to 1,000 feet above the lake, and from 1,200 to 1,600 above tide. Along the shores of the lake a high bluff rises, from 100 to 300 feet in height, and too steep for profitable cultivation. Further from the lake the hills are bordfered by long, gradual slopes, and are tillable to their summits. The extreme south part of the County assumes a more hilly and broken character. The principal stjream is Catharine's Creek, flowing into the head of Seneca Lake, through a deep, narrow, winding valley, bordered by steep hill-sides, from 400 to 600 feet high. There are numer ous falls upon this creek, affording abundance of water-power. A marshy region of considerable extent lies near the tnouth of the creek. Mead's Creek, a tributary of Chemung River, drains the south-west corner, and Cayuta Creek the south-east corner. The other streams are all small creeks and brooks, most of them flow ing into Seneca Lake. A few streams, which rise in the north-east part of the County, flow into Cayuga Lake. Little and Mud Lakes, on the west border, discharge their waters through Mud Creek into Conhocton River. Cayuta Lake is a beautiful sheet of water in the eastern part of the County. Hector Falls, upon a small stream flowing into Seneca Lake from the east, is one of the most beauti ful cascades in the State. The rocks of the County belong chiefly to the Chemung and Por tage groups, the former occupying the south part of the County SCHUYLER COUNTY. 171 and the latter the north part. The Genesee slate outcrops along the deep valley of Seneca Lake, in the extreme northern part. There is very little good building stone in the County ; the thin- bedded sand-stone, separating the thick beds of shale, being the only stone suitable for the purpose. Deep deposits of drift cover the shale in many places. Upon the highlands the soil is clayey and gravelly, derived chiefly from the disintegration of the shales, which is in many places underlaid by hard-pan. In the valleys the soil is a gravelly loam, intermixed with alluvium. The principal pursuit of the people is agriculture. Spring grains are raised to considerable extent, and great attention is paid to stock raising, dairying and wool growing. The climate and soil are better adapted to pasturage than to tillage. Fruit is an impor tant article of culture, and all kinds adapted to the climate succeed well. There is some manufacturing at Watkins and Havana. In 1854, Delos DeWolf, of Oswego, Edward Dodd, of Washing ton, and Vivus W. Smith, of Onondaga, were appointed Commis sioners to locate the County buildings, and fixed upon Havana as the County seat. The action of the Commissioners was resisted by the Board of Supervisors, and by them the County seat was located at Watkins, at the head of Seneca Lake. A Court House was erected at each village ; but the Courts decided in favor of the ac tion of the Commissioners, and April 13th, 1857, the Legislature passed an act confirming the location of the County seat at Havana, This act was confirmed by the Supreme Court, in April, 1858. In 1867 a law was passed removing the County buildings and Courts of Schuyler County to the village of Watkins. New building* have been erected on an eligible site, and the County seat is now permanently located at Watkins. The public works in the County are the Chemung Canal, extend ing from the head of Seneca Lake south, through the valley of Catharine's Creek, uniting with Chemung River at Elmira; the' Elmira, Jefferson and Canandaigua Railroad, extending along the' west shore of Seneca Lake, to Watkins ; and the Chemung Rait road, extending south from Watkins, along Catharine's Creek, t» Elmira. These roads are now known as the Northern Central Railroad. There are three weekly newspapers now published in the County. The first paper published was The Tioga Patriot, started at Havana in June, 1828, by L. B. & S. Butler, and was continued only a short time. The Havana Observer was started in 1830, by F. W". Ritter, and was soon discontinued. TTie Havana Republican was started in 1835, by Nelson Col- grove. It was subsequently published by G. Barlow Nye, T. J. Taylor and W. H. Ongly, successively, until 1849, when it was changed to the K X7S SCHUYLER COUNTY. Life in the Country and Havana Republican, It was discon tinued in 1850. The Chemung Democrat was removed from Horseheads to Ha vana in 1840, and to "Jefferson" (now Watkins,) in 1842. Its name was soon after changed to The Democratic Citizen, and was issued by J. I. Hendricks, until 1850. The Independent Freeman was started at Watkins, June 15th, 1850, by W. B. Slawson & Co, ; in 1851 it was changed to The Jefferson Eagle, and was continued a few months. The Corona Borealis, a literary paper, was published at Jefferson about the same time. The Watkins Republican was started in June, 1854, by S. M. Taylor. It passed into the hands of J. K. Averill, and subsequently into those of M. Ells. THE SCHUYLER COUNTY DEMOCRAT was started in 1863, and is now published by Wm. H. Baldwin. THE WATKINS EXPRESS, now in its fifteenth volume, is published by Levi M. Gano. THE HAVANA JOURNAL was established by Waldo M. Potter, in September, 1849, and continued by him until the fall of 1851. It was then published by J. Wesley Smith until the spring of 1853, when the establishment was purchased by John B. Look, who conducted it until the spring of 1864. In May of that year, E. A. Hotchkiss purchased a half interest, and under the firm name of Look & Hotchkiss the paper was conducted for about six months. Mr. A. E. Fay then purchased the interest of Mr. Hotch kiss, and continued as a partner of Mr. Look until the fall of 1865. In September of that year Hon. Charles Cook purchased the estab lishment, continuing the paper as its editor and proprietor until his death, in October, 1866. The Journal was then published by the heirs of Mr. Cook until February, 1867, at which time it was sold to its present publisher, A. G. Ball. The Journal is now an eight- column paper, and has a large circulation. The expedition of General Sullivan in 1779, passed through this County after the battle of Newtown, so fatal to the Indians. As the route of the army lay through narrow defiles where heavy artil- ery could^not well be transported, this, with wagons and such por tions of the baggage as were not wanted, was sent back to Tioga Point. Only four brass three-pounders and a small howitzer were retained ; and the whole army, put upon short rations, moved to wards Catharinestown, (now Havana,) the residence of the cele brated Catharine Montour. The Indians fled in dismay after the battle of Newtown, though a small force would have been suffi cient to utterly destroy or drive back the army sent against them, so difiicult was the pass through which it was compeHed to march. SCBUYLER COUNTY. 173 General Sullivan relates in his official account, that on his arrival at Catharinestown, an old woman of the Cayuga nation was found in the woods, who informed him that the Indians arrived the next day after the battle, in great confusion, saying that they were con quered and must flee ; that a great many were killed and vast num bers wounded. She heard the lamentations of many at the loss of their relatives, and assured General Sullivan that other warriors had met Brant and Butler, and desired them to return and renew the battle. But they could not be induced to risk another engage ment. General S. had depended upon the Oneidas to act as guides and runners through the Indian country, but being disappointed in this, only four remaining with the expedition, he dispatched one of those from Catharinestown to the Oneida Castle, with an address, calling upon all who were friendly to the Americans to prove the sincerity of their professions by joining his forces immediately. — The messenger, Oneigat, was also instructed to give his nation an account ofthe battle of Newtown. He did not return and join the expedition until near its close ; but on his return, reported that a council was convened and his people were greatly rejoiced at the news which he bore, and that seventy warriors had set out with him to join the army, and thirty more were to follow the next day. On their arrival at the Onondaga village they learned that Sullivan had advanced to Kanadesaga, and wanted no more men, except a few guides ; and after transmitting to him an address, the Oneida warriors turned back. The address was one interceding in behalf of a clan of Cayugas who had claimed to be friendly to the United States. General Schuyler decbred, in reply, that the Cay ugas should be chastised, for their whole course had been marked by duplicity and hostility. The state of civilization to which the Six Nations had arrived can scarcely be realized by those who are accustomed to look upon all Indians as the same roving savages, living in the rudest of huts, with scarcely enough of the habits of civilized life to separate them from the beasts of the field. They had several towns and many large villages laid out with considerable regularity. Some of their houses were framed, had chimneys, and were painted. Their fields of cofti and beans were large, and their orchards of appks, pears and peaches were extensive and flourishing. Sullivan's expedition swept over it as with the besom of destruction. At Catharines town, all of the houses, thirty in number, were destroyed, and the fields and orchards laid waste. On the 4th of September the army advanced from Catharinestown down the east shore of the lake, destroyed the small settlement at Peach Orchard, and proceeded down the lake to Kandaia, a village of about twenty Jiouses, iwhich was burned, and one day spent in destroying the fields and orchards in the vicinity. On the 7th, the army crossed the outlet .of Seneca 174 SCHUYLER COUNTY. Lake and advanced upon Kanadesaga, the Seneca capital, contain ing about sixty houses, with orchards and gardens rich with the autumnal harvest. It was Sullivan's intention to surround the to-wn and take it by surprise ; but Butler was unable to induce the Indians to make a stand, and their capital was abandoned before the army reached it. Here, as elsewhere, the work of destruction was complete. From this point a detachment of sixty men was sent back to Tioga with the sick, while the main army advanced to Canandaigua, destroying twenty-three houses ; thence they pro ceeded to Honeoye, and after destroying the town, established a strong garrison, leaving the heavy stores and one field-piece. The army then advanced towards Genesee, the great capital of the west ern tribes. Several towns were destroyed on the route. While delaying to bridge a creek. Lieutenant Boyd was sent out with twenty-six men to reconnoitre Little Beardstown. Having accom plished his object, he was returning to re-join the main army, when he was surrounded by several hundred Indians. He made several efforts to out his way through their line, but without success. A few only of his party escaped ; one besides himself was taken pris oner, the others were slain. Lieutenant Boyd was tortured in the most shocking manner that savage ingenuity could devise, and was only relieved by death. The Genesee valley presented the appearance of having been cultivated for a long time, and its beauty and fertility filled the soldiers with astonishment and delight. Beautiful as everything appeared on that autumnal day, it was doomed to a speedy destruc tion. The whole region was scoured by the troops, and large quan tities of corn, laid up for winter use, were destroyed by being burned or thrown into the river. Gen. Sullivan said : " The town of Genesee contained one hundred and twenty-eight houses, mostly large and very elegant. It was beautifully situated, almost encir cled with a clear flat, extending a number of miles, over which ex tensive fields of corn were waving, together with every kind of vege table that could be conceived." Stone, in his life of Brant, gives the foUowing description of this beautiful region, and of the desola tion caused by the army in its march from Newtown : "But the entire army was immediately engaged in destroying it, and the axe and the torch soon transformed the whole of that beautiful region from the character of a garden to a scene of drear and sickening desolation. Forty Indian towns, the largest contain ing one hundred and twenty-eight houses, were destroyed. Corn, gathered and ungathered, to the amount of one hundred and sixty thousand bushels, shared the same fate ; their fruit trees were cut down, and the Indians were hunted like wild beasts, till neither house nor fruit tree, nor field of corn nor inhabitant remained in the whole country. The gardens were enriched with great quanti- SCBUYLEB COUNTY. 175 ties of useful vegetables of different kinds. The size of the corn fields, as well as the high degree of cultivation in which they were kept, excited wonder, and the ears of corn were so remarkably large that many of them measured twenty -two inches in length. So numerous were the fruit trees that in one orchard they cut down fifteen hundred." In reference to this same thing, at an Indian council held at Phila delphia in 1792, Cornplanter addressed Washington in the follow ing language : " Father, the voice of the Seneca nation speaks to you ; the great counselor, in whose heart the wise men of all the Thirteen Fires have placed their wisdom. It may be very small in your ears, and we therefore entreat you to hearken with attention ; for we are about to speak to you of things which to us are very great. When your army entered the country of the Six Nations we called you the Town Destroyer, and to this day, when that name is heard, our women look behind them and turn pale, and our children cling close to the necks of their mothers. Our counselors and warriors are men and cannot be afraid, but their hearts are grieved with the fears of our women and children, and desire that it may be buried so deep as to be heard no more." Having completed the objects of the expedition to this point. Gen. Sullivan set out on his return, September 16th, and arrived at Tioga Point on the 30th of the same month. It is in connection with this expedition that we first find the name of the celebrated Seneca orator, Red Jacket, mentioned in history. He was born in 1750, near Canoga, in Seneca County. According to his own account, he was first inspired with a desire to become an orator by listening to the I'enowned Logan, at an Indian council held in the valley of the Shenandoah. Though many of the cele brated Indian orators were present. Red Jacket was most charmed by Logan, and resolved to take him for a model. On his return home he devoted himself to study, spending much of his time in the forests alone, and by the roaring waterfalls, that he might train his voice for large assemblies. His mother was accustomed to re prove him for his absence, and question him as to the cause." Though loth to answer, when hard pressed he would reply that he had been "playing Logan." The falls at Havana was one of the places to which he would resort for practice, thus imitating the great orator of the Greeks, who practiced by the roaring sea. Thus it will be seen that his command of language and his power over the multitude were the result of long and persistent effort. This County, though small, embraces part of four different tracts. The town of Hector belonged to the Military Tract ; the towns of Catharine, Dix and Montour to the Watkins and Flint Tract ; Ty rone and Orange to the Phelps and Gorham Purchase ; and Read- 176 SCBUYLEB COUNTY. ing to a tract purchased by James Watson, embracing the land lying between Seneca Lake, the Pre-emption line and Ryckman's Reservation. The price paid for the last named was three shillings and seven pence per acre. The boundaries of the Watkins and Flint Tract are described as follows, in the Documentary History of the State : " Beginning at the north-west corner of the township of Che mung ; thence running easterly along the northern boundary of the said township of Chemung, until it strikes Owego River, being the west bounds of the ten townships added to Massachusetts ; thence northerly along said bounds to the township of Dryden, being one of the military townships appropriated for the use of the troops of this State ; thence westerly along the southern boundary of the townships of Dryden,Ulysses and Hector, to the south-western part of Seneca Lake ; thence west until the line strikes the Pre-emption line; thence southerly along the said Pre-emption line to the place of beginning." The price was three shillings and four pence per acre, one-sixth part of the purchase money to be paid, with lawful interest, in six months, and the remainder in two equal installments, one in nine months and the other in eighteen months. The Military Tract, of which Hector formed a part, embraced twenty -six townships, appropriated as bounty to the soldiers of the Revolution, giving each non-commissioned officer and private five hundred acres. The land was surveyed into townships, each con taining one hundred lots one mile square. Congress also passed a law giving one hundred acres to each soldier, this land lying in Ohio. Arrangements were subsequently made to allow the soldiers to draw the whole six hundred acres in this State, by their giving up their claim to the Ohio lands. The first settlements were made on Catharine's Creek, near Ha vana, in 1788, and on the shore of Seneca Lake in 1790, and before the commencement of the present century settlements had been commenced in nearly all the towns now embraced in the County. • ^ Since this County has had a separate organization, little has oc curred worthy of special record in a work like this. At the outbreak of the Rebellion, Schuyler, like the adjoining Counties, responded nobly to the call to arms, and from the farm and the workshop the strong and brave went forth to battle for freedom and Union. The census reports that eight hundred and fifty-four enlisted in this County, one hundred and sixty-four of whom died in the service or from injuries received in the service. Considering the population, this record is one that does credit to the patriotism of the County. The County is divided into one hundred and thirty school dis tricts, in which are one hundred and fourteen school houses, requir- GAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 177 ing one hundred and twenty-three teachers. There are .^xteen joint districts, in which the school houses are in adjoining counties. The whole number of children of school age in the County at the last report was 6,139 ; the number attending school 4,740, and the average attendance 2,156. The amount expended for schools dur ing the last year was $28,388.26. GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. CA-TSAItlNE, named from Catharine Montour, was formed from " Newtown," (now Elmira, Chemung County,) March 15th, 1798. Catlin and Veteran (Chemung County,) were taken off in 1823. A part of Newfield, (Tompkins County,) was annexed June 4th, 1853, and a part was annexed to Cayuta, April 17th, 1854. Montour was taken off in 1860. It lies in the south-east part of the County, and borders upon Tompkins on the east and Chemung on the south. Its surface is a hilly upland, broken by the deep valleys of the streams. Cayuta Lake lies in the north east part, and .its outlet, Cayuta Creek, flows south into the Susque hanna. The soil is chiefly a gravelly loam, mixed with clay. Odessa, (p. v.) in the western part of the town, contains two churches, several mills and about 250 inhabitants. Catharine, (p. v.) situated in the south-west part of the town, contains two churches and about thirty houses. Alpine, (p. v.,) on the south-east border, is partly in this towa. The first settlements of this town were made about the com mencement of the present century, near Odessa and Catharines. The life of the early settlers was similar to that in other parts of the country. Through that energy which characterized the pioneers of the surrounding towns; the forests disappeared, and fertile fields and verdant meadows are now interspersed throughout the town. The productive resources of the town in some respects are without a rival. On the 22d day of July, 1855, Mr. Foster Ervay became the happy father of four children at one birth, three girls and one boy. 178 GAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. Their names are Ida A., Irvin A., Ada Aw and Joy O. The boy and one girl are still living. The population of the town in 1865 was 1,622, and its area 19,- 016 acres. The number of children between the ages of five and twenty-one years is 599 ; the number attending school during the past year was 494, and the average attendance 327. The amount expended for schools the same year was $2,480.15. CA YJJTA was formed from Spencer, (Tioga County,) March 20th, 1824. Parts of Catharine and Erin (Chemung County,) were annexed in 1854. The town was transferred from Tioga to Tomp kins County, March 22d, 1822. It is the south-east corner town of the County. The surface is a hilly upland. Cayuta Creek flows south-east through the town, in a narrow, deep valley, bordered by steep hillsides from 300 to 600 feet high. The soil is a clayey and gravelly loam. Cayuta, (p. v.) situated on Cayuta Creek, is a small village a lit tle north of the center of the town. Alpine, (p. V.) situated on the north line of the town, contains several mills and 25 or 30 houses. The first settlement was made in the valley ®f the Cayuta, near West Cayuta, in 1801, by Captain Gabriel Ogden, Rev. David Janes and Joseph Thomas. The first two were from Tioga County, and the last from Athens, Pennsylvania. In 1803, Her- mon White, Benjamin Chambers and Jeremiah Taylor, settled in the same vicinity, and Moses Brown, LangstafT Compton and others in 1804. The first birth was that of Rosetta, daughter of Jonathan Thomas, in January, 1804 ; the first marriage was that of Ebenezer Edwards and Sarah Ogden, in 1804; and the first death that of Joseph Thomas, in July, 1802. Robert Lockerby taught the first school, in a house belonging to Elder Janes, in the winter of 1805. Cap tain Gabriel Ogden kept the first inn, at West Cayuta, in 1805; Jesse White erected the first saw-mill, on the east branch of the Cayuta, in 18l6j and John Ennis the first grist-mill, two miles be low West Cayuta, in 1817. The first religious services were held by Rev. David Janes, (Bap.) at his own house, in 1802. The population in 1865 was 636, and its area 12,555 acres. The whole number of children of school age is 198 ; the number attending school 146, and the average attendance 67. The amount expended for school purposes in 1867 was $713.16. DIX, named from Hon. John A. Dix, was formed from Catlin, (Chemung Counter,) April 17th, 1835. It lies upon the west side of Catharine's Creek, and extends from the head of Seneca Lake to the south bounds of the County. The surface is chiefly a rolling GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 179 and hilly upland, and the summits of the hills are from 400 to 700 feet above the lake. Catharine's Creek, and several smaller streams, drain the town. The soil is chiefly a fine quality of gravelly loam, and very productive. Watkins, (p. v.) named from Dr. Samuel Watkins, an early set tler in the village, is situated upon the line of Reading, at the head of Seneca Lake. It was incorporated as "Jefferson," April 11th, 1842, and its name was changed April 8th, 1852. It is a station on the railroad and on the canal. It is the County seat, and con tains the County buildings, two banks, five churches, four hotels, two founderies, two planing mills, two malt houses, a brewery, several carriage shops and some over 2,000 inhabitants. Several steamboats ply between Watkins and Geneva. Steam tugs and sailing craft also ply its waters in all directions. Beaver Dams, (p. v.) in the south-west corner of the town, con tains two churches, several manufactories and about thirty houses. Townsend, (p. v.) near the west line of the town, contains a church, several mills and about forty houses. Crawford Settlement (Moreland p. o.) lies near the south line, and contains two churches and about thirty houses. Freer's Glen is a remarkable ravine near the village of Watkins, that has recently been opened to the public, and is one of the most beautiful of the natural curiosities of the country. Though essen tially different from Niagara and Mammoth Cave, it is in some respects no less interesting and wonderful. The Glen was first opened to visitors in 1863, by the erection of bridges and stairways, rendering the first section accessible. Since that time improve ments have been extended by the proprietors until the Glen is now open to visitors for about two miles. The Glen appears to be a cleft or seam in Glen Mountain, worn away by the stream which flows through it. The rocks are soft, and the changes that are pro duced by the annual freshets are such as to render this theory prob able. The entrance to the Glen is a vast amphitheater, semi-circular in form and inclosed by high walls of soft slaty rock. The ruins of an old mill, upon the stream that flows through the center of it, adds to the picturesqueness of the scene. A narrow cleft in the perpendicular wall of this amphitheater appears at the further end, upon the north side of which is a staircase, leading to the first of a succession of glens, each characterized by some peculiarity from which it receives its name. Qlen Alpha is first entered on ascending this staircase. From an angle, in the rocks a stream of water pours out, and falls in a beautiful cascade to a pool thirty feet below. This is crossed by a bridge, from the middle of which we get a very fine view up the Glen. The high and irregular walls on each side approach each 180 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. other towards the summit, almost forming an arch, through which the stream, broken and scattered by the obstructions in its course, rushes to the cascade below. Crossing the bridge and ascending a flight of steps cut in the rock, and following up the stream, we reach the entrance Gorge, whose rock walls are rendered peculiarly beautiful by the various tints and colors which they exhibit. Here we find the Minnehaha ; not the one immortalized by Longfellow, but a diminutive namesake, dashing over th'e rocks in all directions, and forming one of the most beautiful features of this part of the Glen. The Labyrinth, a wild and romantic section, whose most interesting feature is the Gnome's Grotto,\\es beyond. This Grotto is a path leading behind the Cavern Cascade, which rushes over the rocks above into the boiling pool, forty feet below. From this point a stairway, some fifty feet in height, leads up to the Qlen Obscura. From the top of the stairs is seen a remarkable figure resembling the head and features of an Indian, and called the Profile Gorge. Passing on from this point we soon arrive at the Glen Mountain House, an unpretending structure, where the traveler may rest and procure refreshments. Leaving the Mountain House, we pass on to Glen Cathedral, which no pen can describe. It is in the form of a vast oblong amphitheater, nearly a quarter of a mile in length. The perpendicular walls on either side rise to a great height, and are draped with rich foliage, pendant vines and mosses of great beauty. The floor is nearly level, and the veins upon the surface of the rock give it the appearance of having been laid in diamond- shaped blocks. For grandeur and sublimity this is unsurpassed by anything in the Glen. A cascade falls over the rocks at the upper end, forming the Orchestra, which continually pours forth a hymn of praise to the great Creator. This cascade pours its waters into the Pool of the Nymphs, a beautiful natural basin of great depth. The water is so clear that the smallest objects are clearly discernr able where the water is ten or fifteen feet deep. Passing a series of miniature rapids, we come to the foot of the Grand Staircase, which leads to the Glen of the Pools. As we ascend this we ob tain a splendid view of the Cathedral. We seem suspended in mid-air, with the section which we have just passed spread out before us. The stair-case is in two sections, and seventy feet in height. The Glen of the Pools is a succession of subterranean grottoes and deep basins that have been washed out of the rocks by the action of the water for a long series of years. Above this we pass the Triple Cascade and the Rainbow Fall. Passing behind the latter, which is formed by a stream falling from the hill upon the south side of the Glen, we have a beautiful view of the sur rounding objects through the thin veil of transparent water that intervenes. A rainbow formed in the spray adds greatly to its beauty during certain hours of the day. Passing on and up a GAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 181 short staircase we come to another Glen which contains the Shadoio Gorge. The path through this is cut out of the rook, and the pass age IS difficult, though no serious accidents have ever occurred in the Glen. Passing on in our course, we take a view of Pluto Falls and th& Spiral Gorge, and enter Glen Arcadia. Here the view is enchanting, and we would gladly linger and gaze upon the picture spread out before us, but we pass on to the Arcadian Falls, a beau tiful cascade falling some twenty feet into a natural grotto. This is as far as the Glen has been made accessible to visitors. Thus we have taken the reader through the Glen, giving him but a faint idea of its beauties, and passing over many things quite as inter esting as any we have attempted to describe. This point is two miles from the entrance, and 800 feet above the level of Seneca Lake, Days might be spent here in viewing the ever changing features of this mighty gorge, and yet be continually charmed by new beauties. Situated at the head of Seneca Lake, whose waters extend for forty miles to the north, it can hardly fail to become a place of great resort to the pleasure seekers of our country, as its charms become more widely known. The first settlements were made near the head of the lake and along the valley of Catharine's Creek, about the commencement of the present century. George Mills was among the first settlers in town ; he lived to a great age, upwards of 95, Judge John Dowe, David Culver and John and William Watkins, were also among the early settlers. The first settlers at the village of Townsend were Claudius Townsend, Consider B. Evens, Jonas Blower and Dods Benson, in 1823. Ebenezer Perry was the first settler at Beaver Dams. At this place two dams were built across Port Creek by beaver; one of the dams still remains. A swamp, formed by the lower dam, is an alluvial deposit, 400 feet deep, from which lime is made. The first church edifice (Bap.) was erect ed in 1833, at Townsend. The population in 1865 was 3,432, and'the area 22,196 acres. The number of children of school age in the town is 1,181 ; the number attending school 831, and the average attendance 327. The amount expended for school purposes in 1867 was $3,408.65. SJECTOJS was formed from Ovid, (Seneca County,) March 30th, 1802. It is the south-west corner township of the Military Tract, and the north-east corner town of the County. The surface is a rolling upland ; its highest summits are from 500 to 700 feet above Seneca Lake. The bluffs bordering upon the lake are from 100 to 300 feet high, and nearly perpendicular. It is drained by a large number of small streams, which flow into Seneca and Cayuga Lakes. Hector Falls, in the south-west part of the town, is a beautiful cascade upon a creek flowing down the l^ufT which bor- 182 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. ders the lake. The soil is a clay, sandy and gravelly loam, in some places underlaid by hard-pan. Perry City (p. v.) is situated upon the east line of the town, and contains about 150 inhabitants. Mecklenburgh (p. v.) is situated about two miles south-west of Perry City, and contains three churches, several mills and about 400 inhabitants. Reynoldsville (p. v.) lies near the center of the town and con tains a church and about 150 inhabitants. Bennettsburgh, (p. v.) in the south part, contains a church, several mills and about thirty houses. Burdett (p. v.) is situated in the south-west part, and contains three churches, several manufactories and mills, and about 400 in habitants. Peach Orchard, (Hector p. o.) in the north-west part, contains three churches and about forty houses. It received its name from the fact of there being a large peach orchard in that vicinity when the town was first settled. Polkville, in the north-west part, contains a church and about twenty houses. Searsburgh, (p. o.) in the north-east part, is a hamlet, containing two churches. North Hector, in the r.orth-west part, and Cayutaville, in the ¦ south-east part, are post offices. Steamburgh is a hamlet in the north part. Settlement was commenced in 1791, in the north-west part of the town, on the bank of the lake, by John Livingston and William Wickham. Reuben Smith, and his sons Reuben, Jabez, Samuel, Harvey, Caleb and Chauncey W., from Canaan, Conn., settled on Military lots 20 and 21, in 1794; Richard Ely and Grover Smith settled a little north of " Peach Orchard," and Daniel Everts south of the same place, in 1795. These were all from Salisbury, Conn. According to the State Gazetteer, Polly Everts was the first child born in the town ; but. Rev. Mr. Hotchkin, in his History, says " A daughter of Mr. Fawcett's was the first white child born in the town of Hector, She was carried on horseback, soon after her birth, into the region of Northumberland, in the State of Penn sylvania, to receive the ordinance of baptism." A son of Captain Ely was the first white male child born in the town. The first marriage was that of Stephen Pratt and Betsey Livingston ; and the first death that of William Wickham. The first school was taught at Peach Orchard by John Livingston. William Wickham kept the first inn, near Peach Orchard, and John B. Seely the first store, at Hector Falls. The first grist-mill and carding machine were put in operation, at the same place, by Samuel B. Seeley. The first church (Presb.) was formed by Rev. Mr. Stewart, at Peach Orchard, in 1809. GAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. 183 The census of 1865 gives tihe town a population of 5,048, and an area of 63,098 acres. The number of persons of school age in 1867 was 1,662; the number attending school 1,266, and the average attendance 631. The amount expended for school purposes in 1867 was $8,575.50. MONTOUR was formed from Catharines, March 3d, 1860. It lies upon the south border of the County, a little east of the cen ter. The surface is a hilly upland, broken by the deep valleys of the streams. Catharine's Creek flows along the west border, in a deep ravine from 300 to 700 feet below the summits of the hills. The soil is chiefly a gravelly loam, mixed with clay. Havana, (p. v.) incorporated May 13th, 1836, is situated on Catharine's Creek, about three miles from the head of Seneca Lake. It is a station on the canal, and also on the railroad, and contains three churches, two newspaper offices, two banks, the People's Col lege, a hotel, two flouring mills, two founderies, one woolen factory, a plaster mill, extensive stone-ware works, a planing mill, a spoke and hub factory and several other establishments of less import ance. The population is about 1,500. The People's College was incorporated April 13th, 1854, and was located at Havana, January 8th, 1857. The Institution is now under Masonic auspices, in connection with an Asylum for Masonic orphans. There are several natural curiosities in the vicinity of Havana worthy of more than a passing notice. Havana Falls is a beautiful cascade a short distance west of the village. It is upon a small stream that pours its Waters into the Inlet of Seneca Lake. But the chief object of interest, and one that should be seen to be appre ciated, is McClure's Glen, a beautiful ravine worn into the rocks by the action of the water which for ages has been pouring its tor rents into the 'basin of Seneca Lake. Until recently, the beauty and sublimity of the Glen were hidden from all except some daring adventurer whose love of nature, utimproved by art, led him to penetrate its wild and rocky chasms, or the more quiet recesses, and listen to the sweet murmur of the " Whispering Falls." The Glen was first made accessible to the public in the summer of 1867, by the construction of walks and the erection of bridges and stair ways through its rugged and winding way. Near the entrance to the Glen is a beautiful grove, affording a fine resort for pic-nic par ties. Here the Free Masons held a grand pic-nic on the 18th of « September, 1867, at which the number in attendance was variously estimated at from 5,000 to 10,000 persons. As we enter the Glen, the Portal Cascade first appears in view. Here the water of McClure's Creek makes its final plunge into the basin of Seneca Lake. Passing along the narrow path we will next tak^ our stand upon Sylvan Bridge that spans the stream above the 184 GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. first falls, and gaze for a time upon t^e beauties of Glen Montour, as the first section is called. Pursuing our course, the Eagle Cliff Falls appear in view. These are the highest in the Glen, the un broken fall of water being about fifty feet. The cliffs tower above the summit of the falls to the height of more than one hundred feet, rendering the scene peculiarly sublime and impressive. Ascending the oak stairway, the second subdivision of the Glen, The Pride of the Senecas, opens to our view. The stream appears to emerge from a spacious room in the form of an L. The main passage is sixty feet in length and about twenty-five in width, and the average height of the sides about thirty feet. From different stand-points in this section of the Glen we obtain views that are exceedingly beautiful and rarely equaled. We cannot stop to describe the beauties of the Curtain Cascade, or the wild and rugged scenery of Central Gorge, as viewed from the winding stairway. This Gorge varies in depth from fifty to one hundred feet. Leaving it and crossing the Cavern Bridge, located at the entrance of the Glen of the Caverns, we will pursue our way, taking a view of Hermit's Cave and the Whispering Falls as we pass along to Glen Chaos, where the rocks appear to have slid down into the ravine from its adjacent sides, and here lie imbedded in one chaotic mass. The Glen of the Echoes, and Echo Falls, will beguile us for a time ere we reach the Glen of the Pools. Here are numerous cavities, vary ing in size and shape, some of them circular and very beautiful. Passing the Fairies' Cascade and the Summit Falls, we emerge to the highlands which overlook Seneca Lake. In taking the reader through the Glen, we have done little more than to give the names of some of the principal localities, all of w^ich are suggestive, and must now leave him to visit the Glen, and see for himself the work of the Almighty's hand. The first settlement of the town was made at Havana, in 1788, by Silas Wolcott and a Mr. Wilson. George Mills, William Mc- Clure, Phineas Bowers, John King, and families by the name of Stevens, settled in the town. Bear Havana, in 1789-90. Anthony Broderick kept the first school, in a house owned by Phineas Bowers, in 1792-93. Silas Wolcott kept the first inn, soon after his settlement, and Isaac Baldwin and George Mills the first store, in 1805, at Havana. Phineas Bowers erected the first grist and saw-mills, at or near the village. Catharine Montour, in honor of whom this town was named, was a native of Canada, a half breed, her father having been one of the early French Governors ; probably Count Frontenac. During the wars between the Six Nations and the French and Hurons, Catha rine was taken prisoner, carried to the Seneca country, adopted and reared as one of their own children. When arrived at a suit able age, she married one of the distinguished chiefs of her tribe. GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. 185 who distinguished himself in the wars of the Six Nations against the Catawbas, then a powerful nation living to the south-west of Virginia. She had several children by this chieftain, who fell in battle about the year 1730. She is said to have been a handsome woman when young, genteel, and of polite address, notwithstand ing her Icdian associations. She was accustomed to accompany the chiefs of the Six Nations to Philadelphia and other places where treaties were made, and from her character and manners was greatly caressed by the American ladies. At Philadelphia she was invited into the best circles and entertained at the houses of the elite of the city. She was commonly called " Queen Catharine," and had her residence near the present village of Havana. Prom the English Colonial Government she received a small salary for many years, on account of her influence with the Indians. The famous "Paint ed Post," at the confluence of the Tioga and Conhocton Riv ers, is said to have been erected to the memory of the son of Queen Catharine. Mr. Mills, the first merchant of Havana, was also one of the first navigators of Seneca Lake. " Mills Landing" was the head of nav igation, and from this point, in his Indian batteaux, he transported the products of the soil, and received in return goods brought from New York via Albany, Mohawk River, Wood Creek and Seneca River. As the population increased, he increased the tonnage of his vessels, and did a thriving business. The first sloop launched upon the lake was built under the pat^ ronage of Col. Charles Williamson, in 1796, to ply between Geneva and Catharinetown. This event called forth the settlers from their cabins, and was regarded as an event of scarcely less importance than the launching of an ocean steamer in our seaports. It is said that natives of every State in the Union, and of every nation in Europe were present to witness the event. The first steamboat that navigated the lake was the Seneca Chief, and her first trip was made July 4th, 1828. In just twenty years from that day she was destroyed by fire. The population of the town in 1865 was 1,854, and its area 11,323 acres. The number of persons of school age in 1867 was 622; the number attending school 512, and the average attendance 204. The amount expended for school purposes in 1867 was $3,958.64. OMANGE was formed from Wayne, (Steuben County,) Feb ruary 12th, 1813, as "Jersey." Its name was changed February 20th, 1836. A part of Hornby, (Steuben County,) was annexed April 11th, 1842, and a part of Bradford (Steuben County,) April 17th, 1854. It is the south-west corner town in the County, and is bounded on the east by the pre-emption line. Its surface is a 186 GAZETTEEB OF TOWNS. rolling aud hilly upland, broken by the deep and irregular valleys of the streams. Mead's Creek, flowing south-west, forms the prin cipal drainage. The soil is chiefly a gravelly loam. Monterey, (Orange p. o.) situated on Mead's Creek, in the south part of the town, contains a grist-mill and about 300 inhabitants. Sugar Hill is a post office in the north-east part. The first settlements were made in 1799, by Abraham Rozen- back and Samuel Scomp, north-east of Monterey. Henry Switzer, from New Jersey, settled on Switzer Hill, in 1802, and D. Hewitt, from Rensselaer County, was the first settler mt Monterey, in 1811. Abner and Thomas Hurd, and Brigham Young, the Mormon Pres ident, were early settlers in the north-east part of the town. Wil liam Wilkins, William DeWitt, Andrew Fort, Daniel Curtis, Jed ediah Miller and a Mr. Chapman, settled on Mead's Creek in 1811. David Kimball, and his brother Moses, John Dyer, Sylvester Goodrich, and three men by the name of Hewitt, settled in the town a few years later. Joshua Chamberlain came into the town and purchased the land where the village of Monterey stands, of a man named DeWitt. The north-east part of the town, known aS' " Sugar Hill," did not receive its name from any considerable ele vation in that place, but from the following circumstance : In this> place was a fine grove of maples, and the early settlers in the adja cent region, having in their hunting excursions discovered that there were no settlers upon the land, were accustomed to resort thither in the spring and manufacture a supply of sugar for the year ; hence the name " Sugar Hill." The settlement in this vicinity was com menced about 1819 or 1820. Lewis Nichols, William Webb, Thomas Horton, Abraham and John Allen, Ebenezer Beach, Mr. Eveleth, Seymour Lockwood, and two families of Comptqns, were among the first settlers. Dr. Hibbard and Abraham Lyboult came about the year 1821. After the commencement of the settlement the land was very soon taken up by actual settlers. The fertility ofthe soil and the proximity to Seneca Lake, their.prospeotive mar ket, together with the easy manner of obtaining land from the office at Bath, contributed to the rapid settlement of the town. The first child born in the town was Elsie Switzer, and tbe first school was taught by Daniel MoDougall, in 181 9, near Monterey. Thomas Hurd.kept the first inn, in 1816, at Monterey, and Walter Hurd the first store, south-west of the same place. The first church (M. E.) was formed by Rev. Peregrine Hallett, the first preacher. The population of the town in 1865 was 2,094, and its area 29,- 863 acres. The number of persons of school age in the town in 1867, was 700, the number attending school 544, and the average attendance 247. The amount expended for school purposes the same year was 3,281.88.

Ingraham's Cultivators or Horse Hoes are perhaps, the most wonderful and perfect machines of the kind, that have thus far been invented.— This machine can be arranged to run deep or shallow, wide or narrow, to muke much hill or no hill, to throw the earth to or Irota the row. The teeth are of cast iron or steel, and reversible, giving double the amount of wear; can be adjusted io, any desired angle, and yet tbe machine is so simple in its construction as to be manufactured by any ordinary mechanic, at an expense not to exceed twelve dol lars. If you wish deep cultivation, this machine will do it. If shlaUow culti vation is reouired, yon may arrange it ac cordingly. The simple turning of 1 wo nuts reverses the shares, or adjusts the machine to any desired width of row. You may have a wheel or thill cultivator, as desired. The drawing of a pin will change the angle of the tooth sp as to give thei hiU any de sired proportion. Farmers, this is the cultivator! you have long sought. It can be arranged for any and all these difSerent kinds ofwork. It can be put through all of these changes in a few mmutes, no tool being necessary ex cept a common wrench. Every common sense farmer will see at a glance, that in this simple machine provision is made for all kinds of work required of a cultivator. The Bural New yorto- declares it to be the most perfect machine of its kind.— Please notice particularly the card and en graving on page 240. For machines and territory address H.

Dr. H; has spent years of time and a large amount of money in his investigations, aud the result is the dis covery of a process by which medicines in a liquid form can be prepared and pre served without the use of alcohol, that bane of the human race. TboMhids of drunkards are made every year b^Wie various nos trums nnder the name of bitters, the chief ingredient of which is alcohol. Dr. H's preparations are purely scientiflc and are destined to work a mighty change in the field qf their adoption. These medicines are highly spoken of wherever they have been used.

Gregg Iron "W"orlC8, at Trumans- burgh,Tompkins County, owned by Gregg, Plyer & Co., successors to James A. Clapp, of Farmer Village, who estabUshed the first manufactory of agricultural imple ments in the southern part of Seneca Co., about the year 1847. Gregg, Plyer & Co. removed to Trumansburgh in 1865. Dur ing that year they erected a substantial and commodious brick building in which to conduct their rapidly increasing business. It is a two story bnUding, 101 feet long and 90 feet wide. Located in the western part of the village, it attracts the notice of all coming into town from that section. At these works are manufactured the celebrat ed Iron Mower, patented by Daniel H. Thayer, of LudlowvUle, in Tompkins Co. They are celebrated for their strength, sim- pUcity and durabUity. They also manu facture Sharp's Patent Wheel Horse Rake, besides Threshing Machines, Clover Ma chines, and other agricultural implements. In the various departments the Company work up about 500 tons of cast and wrought iron, and 200 tons of coal annually. The works are admirably conducted. — Only experienced and competent work men, (of whom, when in full operation, there are about 56,) are employed, aud the farmer who purchases a machine of this firm may rely on the investment's being a good one. See card, page 257. Hayden Brotbers, proprietors of the Retail Woolen Mills, at Port Byron, have long been celebrated as being manu facturers of desirable and reliable goods. The establishment was started in 1824 as a small custom mill. Since then the greatly 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 ex perienced and careful workmen who strive to maintain the reputation their goods have ever bome smong their retail cus tomers. 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 and the public of Chemung and Schuy ler Counties, as well as the business men generally, can make good bargains by calling at the store, where Mr. J. 'Sv. Gates, the manager, will be pleased to give them good goods at advantageous terms. See card, page 240. / "W. H.

Mr. Pinchis a practical painter, and those who patronize him may be assur ed of having their work weU done. Those who have seen his work need no recom- f ihendation tl'om us. Mrs. C. C. Sheffield, Agent for the American Button Hole, Overseaming and Sewing Machine Company, Elmira, N. Y., publisnes a card on colored page 265. The mechanism of this Machine far surpasses any other in use^ It is so constructed that it WiU make either the lock stitch or the button hole stitch, really combining two machines in one. Itis very simple in con struction, and is not easily thrown out of repair. In short, it combines all the most desirable qualities of the best machines, besides adding to them some peculiar ex- ceUences of its own. Persons wishing to purchase machines will do well to call on Mrs. 8. and examine this machine before purchasing. Instructions given gratuitous ly to all purchasers. Important Knowledge.- As mu sic is now an indispentable necessity in every household, any reliable informa tion is valuable as to the best place to buy musical instruments. We have been ac quainted for years personaUy with the firm of Redington & Howe, and nave known of their business faciU ties. We imotothatno House between New York and Chicago can compete with them sucoessfhUy, as their facilities are unequaled. In addition to the immense capital at their control, they have special contracts with several leading flrst-cmss manufacturers, whereby they buy cheaper than any other dealers in the Uni ted States anywhere. Their immense trade requires only a small profit on each one of their many transactions to ensure them a handsome income. Their terms are most highly liberal. And another important consideration is that their treatment of their customers is perfectly honorable, a very important matter in the purchase of such a complicated affair as a musical in strument. Their recommendation of in struments can be depended on impUcitly.- This we know from an extensive acquaint ance among hnnrlreds to whom they have sold instraments. We advise onr readers to give them a call, or cettainly to write to Jthem before deciding on the purchase of a Tiano Forte, Organ or Melodeon, or any musical merchandise. See the Addenda to this volume, which contains a portion of their catalogue. Howe's Ne"rer-Falllng Agne Gnre and Tonic Bitters, and Howe's Concentrated Syrni;, are prepared under the personal supervision of Dr. C. B.'Howe, the proprietor, at Seneca FaUs, N.

Y., publishes a card on colored page 102. After experimenting upon various substances for several years, a substance has been found which answers aU the requirements of a first-class slate. The materialB are simply slate-stone (finely pul verized) and coal tar. Associated in geology, perhaps originally combined, an atBnity is found to exist, and being brought into contact, a union is formed which no power can dissolve. It adapts itself to every shape and condition, is non-com bustible and impervious. Neither water or steam can penetrMe or dissolve it. It is undecaying and flre-proof, and will last as long as the stracture that sustains it. The most intense heat or cold wUl not expand or contract it. Slate tile is known to every school boy and needs no recommendation. IVUllams Ic Pike, proprietors .of Livery and Exchange Stable, comer of Madison and Montgomery streets, Watkins, N.

They keep con stantly on hand a large and well selected assortment of all goods in their line, which they will sell at prices to suit the times. Xbe Reynold's Steel Temper ing \V"orks, Reynolds, Barber & Co., Proprietors, 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 pe culiar one, and, as patented by Mr. Rey nolds, is the result of over forty years labor. This gentleman always worked on the plan that tempering steel was simply changing it trom a fUyraus to a granular state.

For some time we have designed an account of this immense establishment, ' that our readers might be posted in regard to one of the leading business establishments of our city, and which has been brought so rapidly to magni tude by the well directed tact and indomitable energy of its proprietors. The store No. 2 Wieting. Block, is one of the largest and most elegant on the main thoroughfare, and right in the very centre of the business part of the town. As we pass along the street, and more especially on entering the store, the eye is attracted by the elaborate and tastefully arranged exhibit in the show window of all.the smaller class of musical instruments, &o,, that make as an attractive a display as any "window on South Salina Street. As we enter, glancing to the right, the eye quickly runs over a large array of Guitars, Violins, and all varieties of musical instruments and wares, on shelves, hanging up, and in cases. Upon the counter of this department is a Burdett Keed Organ, iu a most elaborately carved case, worth $1,500. It is a beauty. Next, upon the same side, we come to a long eounter, behind which the shelves are loaded with Sheet Music. Prof. T. H; Hinton super- Aises tqis department ; the best guarantee that the assortment is not only well selected but complete. The opposite side ofthe store is crowded with Stein way and Dunham Pianos, the sides being lined with the unequaled Vox Humana Organs: with a large variety of Piano and Melodeon covers and stools added above. Passing by the center arch we come to rows and rows more of Pianos, Or gans and Melodeons, of all varieties and styles. On the right is the depart ment for Music Books,— a branch to which this house gives the most prompt attention- Drawers the entire length of the store (140 feet) are devoted to the storage of Violin and Guitar strings, Accordeons, Harmonicas, Piano Polish, and multitude of the different wares to be found in a complete music store, for the wholesale as well as retail trade. And still above, we flnd more Piano and Melodeon stools, cords of Violins, Guitars, Banjos, Drums Ac., &c. Goods are also stored in the basement— the whole size of the main store — finished and lighted for the purpose. In glancing through ihis great establishment one particularly notices the large stock and variety of Piano Fortes, Organs and Melodeons, numbering more than fifty different kinds. The speciality of the proprietors is first-class instruments— on which the public can rely implicitly as being worthy in every way of confidence. This is an important matter for purchasers. Many dealers do not hesitate to tell buyers that second grade instruments are first class. Sometimes small dealers are really ignorant of what is a first class instrument. Others are themselves manufacturers of second quality instru ments, and of course are bound to oall their own as good as any made. Sometimes, also, they sell second and third rate goods as first grade for out rageous profits, calculating on only a brief business career in each place they visit. We say then, be careful to buy first class goods, and at a house where they are sure to have such. Messrs. Redington & Howe, in a twelve years business history, have earned an unblemished reputation for giving perfect satisfaction to their customers. This thej accomplish by kru3wing that everylhing sent out by them is exactly what it 18 represented to be. Besides, they are independent of any partiou- Redington & Howe's Catalogue. 5 lar factory, and therefore the better fitted to .judge between difi'erent makers . While R. & H. make a speciality of first class goods, they are enabled through their great advantages in buying, to sell second and third grade instruments at cheaper rates than any house in Central or Western New York. They buy at the large factories east, at a price actually less than the small makers can manufacture. The proof of the matter is in the trying. We say, go to Red ington & Howe's and see what their facilities are. Their establishment is well worth a visit, even if one does not wish to buy anything. All will be made welcome. (From the Syracuse Daily Courier and Union.) The Immense Mdsical Establishment of Eeddjgton & Howe.— -The enter" prising wholesale Music Dealers of our city, Messrs. Redington & Howe- have just closed a most successful business year. Their sales have been im mense—something entirely unparalleled in the histoty 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 stock would supply a dozen ordinary city music stores. Theirs is the only strictly wholesale Music House in the State outside of New York City. They have even some advantages over the Metropolitan houses. Our Syra cuse wholesale store keeps constantly on hand, the Pianos; Organs and Melo deons, of several different makers, (a total of eighteen, with over fifty different varieties,) while New York houses keep only one maker's instruments. Be sides, business expenses are much less in Syracuse than in New York ; con sequently Eedington & 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 bny in New York, as cheaply as Eedington & Howe. The dealers have thorough ly 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 bny. Consequently, others have to buy on a higher tariff. It is on tbe same principle that Stewart of New York forced a neighboring house to -withdraw. He could sell at a profit, cheaper than his competitor could buy. Messrs. Eedington & Howe, have similar purchasing facilities. Indeed, they can justly be called the " Stewarts " of the Music trade in Cen tral New York. We are glad, also, to notice that Redington &, Howe do a first doss busi ness in tbe Pianos, Organs and Melodeons they furnish. Their principal stock is composed of first grade instruments. These they advertise and rec ommend because they fcnoto 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-^iriced 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 Reding ton & Howe. They will also tell honestly the quality of the goods. Another point : this house is financially responsible for all they recom mend. Besides having the largest capital in the Music business in Central New York, they are backed up by as much more as they choose to call upon. For everything in the musical line, go to Eedington & Howe, No. 2 Wiet ing Block, (From The Koohester Daily Union.) " The House of Eedington & Howe is attracting the attention of the trade everywhere, on aocsunt of their superior facilities for wholesaling the ac- •knowledgcd first-class Pianos, Organs and Melodeons, aa well as every variety of Musical Merchandise. 6 REDrNGTo:^ & Howe's Catalogue. From the Syracuse Daily Journal They have a musical emporium second to none west of New York city. In saying this we do but simple justice to Messrs. Redington & Howe, who occupy one of the largest stores in Central New York, fitted np wito an especial view to the accommodation of their rapidly increasing business. The various departments of the musical business have each received proper attention, and each is conducted with a view to meet the demands and cater to the tastes of a most fastidious pnblic. First and foremost, Messrs. Eed ington & Howe have in their Piano Department a full line of the various makes of Pianos, thus restricting purchasers to no particular make of Piano, bnt affording them unusual facilities for the comparing of the various instru ments. "They have in tbeir Organ and Melodeon Department all of the most approved Instruments manufactured, and offer inducements superior to any establishment, to persons desirous of purchasing thia kind of instruments. In this, as in the Piano trade. Messrs Redington & Howe have the exclusive State agency for the sale of certain makes of Pianos, Organs and Melodeons, and all business connected with such instruments passes through their hands, thus giving them a chance to furnish at lower rates than any other establish ment outside of the manufacturers. This statement is established beyond a doubt, from the fact that the manu facturers ofthe best grades of instruments refuse to furnish smaller dealers with instruments as low as they do those dealers whom they designate as their wholesale agents. Tho fact is well known and conceded by all persons that any article can be manufactured at less cost where the manufactarers are turning out hundreds of such articles monthly than they can be made by manufacturers who make on a smaller scale. This would lead to the con clusion that this line of goods can be sold by Messrs. R. & H. at the lowest possible figures. In the smaller instrument department their stock embraces the most com plete and varied assortment ever opened in Central New York, with instru ments from the various leading manufactories of this and other States. The sheet music department of this firm is one of the especial features of their trade, and to enable them to be first and foremost in the introdnction of all new and popular sheet music, they have secured the services of our well known townsman. Professor T. H. Hinton, who superintends this depart ment. His well known capability, is the surest guarantee of the manner in which this' branch of tbeir trade is conducted. In this departmen t at all times may be found all the latest vocal and instrumental gems issued in New York, Philadelphia and Boston which will be received so as to enable Messrs Redington & Howe to offer them to the public simnltaneoas with their appearance in the Eastern cities. The department of general mnsical mer chandise has been supplied with everything pertaining in any wise to music, and which assortment they keep fully supplied. The immense musical emporium of Messrs. R. & H. is open at all times to musicians and the public generally ns a place where they can call at all hours ofthe day and examine for themselves the various features of a well conducted and stocked musical establishment. The acknowledged leader ship in the musical business has secured for them the ticket-selling of all ope ras, concerts aud other first class entertainments given in our city. From the Daily Journal Oct., 24th, 1868. So.mething New asd Beautiful. — Messrs Redington & Howe have just re ceived a newly patented Bnrdett organ, with what we should call a Fairy Bell accompaniment. By means of a stop the effect of a beaatifol mnsio box or Mandoline is added. The organ is a perfect gem — worthy of a spec ial visit to their store. This house is always foremost in introducing to the pablio In Central New York the various really valuable improvements that appear ia musical Redington & Howe's Catalogue. mstrumente. They are just aa careful to reject the humbugs, and have act- vjaiiy declined the agency of several pianos and organs which less informed dealers here have since adopted and are trying to sell. ii."^^ v-^u™®"^® bnsiness acquaintance of EediuRton & Howe, together vith their high reputation in New York, Boston and Chicago, as the strongest and most energetic house in New York State (outside of the city), secures to tnem the first choice in regard to the agency of any manufacturers cf musical instruments in the United States. 'I'w"' ^f^™™''*'^ trade enables them to buy cheaper than any other Cen tral New York House, as they buy so much more largely. While their principal trade is in first-class articles, they are able to furnish second or third grade instruments, cheaper than the first cost of manufacture in this city. They buy of large eastern factories, which, on account of operating on a larger basis, can manufacture much cheaper than small concerns. And R. & H. buy very closely, because buying so much, On this account they can and do sell cheaper— qualities of the goods being considered, ttan any other house. For this reason parties in Albany, Troy, Utica, Rochester and Buffalo are sending to Redington & Howe for instrume'nts. We advise our readers to oall there— No. 2 Wieting block — by all means. before buying any musical instrument or merchandise. (From The Northern Christian Advocate, Auburn.) " This is an old House, and has the best kind of a record for prompt busi ness ability and for reliable and hoQorable dealing. They secure perfect satisfaction to all customers, whether wholesale or retail. Their facilities are the best of any establishment in Central or Western New York, and their prices correspondingly liberal. Pastors, Churches, Sabbath Schools and families will do well to correspond with or visit this House. Eedington & Howe are known to us and we can recommend them as reliable dealers." (From The' Auburn Daily Advertiser.) '' A prompt, honorable House, who have the best facilities in Western New York for the Music BusinesSj and who secure satisfaction to all customers." (From Tho Oswego Daily Palladium.) " They are thorough, honorable business men, with a larger capital and better facilities than any House in the State, outside of New York City. They keep the best instruments manufactured, and are fully responsible for the warrant they give of perfect satisfaction. We are certain that onr citizens will do well to visit or correspond with this House." From tho Syracuse Daily Journal, Nov., 14th, 1868. Much Music. — We had no adequate idea of the magnitude of Redington & Howe's transactions in mnsical instruments until permitted the other day to see their order book. We were surprised at the nnmber of instruments making their way over the country. We noticed especially a single order recently sent, which surpasses the entire yearly business of many retail es tablishments. The order was for one hundred and seven Burdett organs and melodeons, having an aggregate value of over $20,000. We now see why Eedington & Howe pay the only wholesale dealer's license in the music line, assessed by "Uncle Sam" in Central New York. They sell such large quantities because they can sell cheaper, than any other dealers, (as low, if neccessary, as their competitors buy or manufacture their goods.) They are also well known to be entirely reliable and honorable in their transactions. Redington i:o3VH. i*okta.bi:^e: ca.s33. 41. Five Octave — Single Reed, Walnut Case, .. , 05 42.

This Veteran House (established in 1846) holds its rank, ot the bead, ond are no-w timshing every inOnth hundreds of Organsjand Melodeons, which are o just credit to American skill and enterprise. " The vast anaount of patronage received, has been secured more by tho actual merits of the instrument, than by extensive advertising and the pretentious pa rade of their wares before the public. Thej have employed and retiuned, from the first, some of the finest mechanics and mventora of the age, and have adopt- ted, ond patented more valuable improvements, than any other estabUshment in the land. As the result, their instruments stand unrivalled by anything found in this country or in Europe, as is admitted by all impartial judges. The moat eminent Pipe-Organ builders and performers — the last to discover excellence in reed tones — ^pronounce them much superior to othors. They possess the following improvements : q?HE PATENT HARMONIC ATTACHMENT is an octave coupler used on a_ single manual, and doubles the power of the instrument without increasing its size or number of reeds. Thus, by tho use of this improvement, an Organ con- i taining two sets of reeds is instantly made equivalent to one of four ; and a tri- ' reed equals an instrument of six sets of reeds, making tho most powep-i'I'i. instrument of its size yet known in this country. THE PATENT MANUAL SUB-BASS brings into use aa independent sot of I large aud powerful sub-bass eeeds, which are played with the ordinary keys and - controlled by a stop. The manner in which this set of reeds is placed upon the air chamber increases the volume of tone at least one-third. This new and val uable invention requires no extra room, and has all the effect of pedal bass, and can be used by any ordinary performer. THE PATENT KNEE-SWELL, whereby the player has complete control over the instrument, obtaining a perfect Cbescendo or DiMiNUEfrDo, more beau tiful thsm the Automatic Swell, or any other over before used. THE PATENT ORGAN BELLOWS greatly enhances tho power and quality of the tone without increasing the size of the case. THE PATENT REED BOARD, whereby the tone is greatly improved, ren dering it more like a Pipe Organ than is found in any other instrument.. This I important improvement la covered by two patents. THE PATENT VOX HUMAN.A TEEMOLO. In attempting to describe the effect of this stop, we are at a loss for langu(i"-q ; i ita beauties cannot bo written, but must be heard to bo appreciated. _ By this ' stop an ordinary performer can produce an effect which requires a lifetime of practice for an artist upon the Violin. It changes entirely the roed-tone, giving the sympathetic sweetness of the ' HcMAsr Voice, making it so melodious and pure that it never fails to enchant , the appreciative listener. The Tremolo is produced by means of a ituvoLVTse v.vn placed just back of the swell, which imparts to tho tone a charming wave-like effect hitherto un known in instrumental music. THE VOX JUBILANTE Is a new and beautiful stop, peculiar to the Estbv Oboans. The character of the tone is marked and wonderfully effective,, giving a stvle of music hitherto . unattained in instruments of this class. This is accomplished by an extra set of I reeds ineeniously arranged, and adjusted to meet this special, and hitherto un- supplied want. It ia considered by competent judges a great success.

We are sometiaiies asked why the Dunham Piano Porte has not been, more prominently before thepublie-for the test eightyestrs. We give tbe reason. At the commencement of the late war, tbe DunhAm, geaioi'. concluded tO de- erease the very large mauufacturing: done by himself, so long as public at tention should" be So completely absorbed' in the stirrincg evenM theh tran spiring, consequently he dJwlnishad his force femployed aud sent diirihg the war the greater portion of his pianos to the Cauudian FroVlnceS, (Where the demand for the Dunham Pianos cflU for more than five hundred instru ments every year). At the conclusion Of the war, he associated with him tw^o sons as parthers, built a new factory, and tbe firm of .Ions B. Diinham & Soxs are now manu facturing very largely. The high opinion of their pianos entertained by Piano Dealers is evinced by the great' desire of the principal houses to secilre the Dunliam aigency. Leiter Brother's Jewelry House.
