INTRODUCTION, INTRODUCTIOjST In presenting the initial number of the Gazetteer and Directory of Oswego County to the public, the Publisher desires to return hia sincere thanks to all who have so kindly assisted in obtaining the valu- able information which it contains, and without whose aid it would have been impossible to have collected in the brief space of time in which it is essential that all such works should be compiled. When it is known that time, equal to more than three years' labor if done by one man, has been devoted to the canvass, it is believed the patrons of the work will willingly excuse the delay beyond the time it was expected the work would be issued. The advertisers in this work represent the leading business men of the county, and we most cheerfully commend them all to the pat- ronage of those under whose observation these pages may come. The usual amount of close application— ceaseless care and mental labor necessarily given to this intricate and complicated part of book- making, has been bestowed upon the present volume ; and though it is hoped that none will find an error worth complaining of, yet, should there be, remember that nothing is jJerfect — that it is human to err, while it is a sublime prerogative iof&rgive THE COMPILER, ERRATA.

Accordingly, on the 4th day of August, 1863, the draft commenced at the City of Oswego, and was continued daily until the whole num- ber, 3,102 men were drawn. OSWEGO COUNTY. 27 It will be understood that from various excuses, many persons drawn were afterwards exempted from duty. The following is the re- sult of the draft. The tigures are totals for the 22d district: Ex- empted for physical disability, 763. Only sou of widow, 118. Only son of infirm parents, IIG. Election, 42. Only brother, 4. Father of motherless children, 24, Two men in service, 39. Felony, 2. In ser- vice, March 3, 1863, 37. Aliens, 206. Over 45yearsof age,'l8. Over 35 and married, 205. Under 20 years, 85. Non-residents, 125. Com- muted for $300, 768. Substitutes furnished, 125. Held for service, 92. Not reported, 334. Of this number 27 substitutes and 16 drafted men, subsequently deserted ; so that this draft resulted in furnishing the Government 174 men and $230,400 in currency. Oct. 17, 1863 — The President called for 300,000 more men, and Feb. 1st, 1864, he made an additional call for 200,000, and March 14, of the same year, he called for 200,000 more, making in all, 700,000 men to be raised forthwith. The quota of Oswego county on these three calls, was 3,341 men, and there were furnished 3,561 men. June 15, 1864 — The President called for 100,000 three months men to repel the invasion of Pennsylvania. New York City furnished the State's share of this force, Oswego furnished none. July 18, 1864— The President called for 500,000 men for one year. The Military Committee again went to work and raised in Oswego county, the I84th Regiment, Col. Wardwell G. Robinson, detach- ments of which left for Elmira, commencing Sept. 5th, 1864. They also furnished a large number of men for the 12th Cavalry, under Col. Wm. C. Raulston, formerly of the 81st Regiment. The quota under this call, for the county, was 1,425 men, deducting a surplus of 220 men we had under former calls, we had to furnish 1,205 men, but sent forward 1,245 men, a surplus of forty men. Dec. 19, 1864— The President called for 500,000 more men, and the quota of the county, after deducting the excess furnished under the call of July 18, was 1,142. Of these there were furnished 881 men. Events which soon after transpired, made it evident to all that no more men would be needed. Diu'ing the war, many men from this county straggled into other localities, and being enlisted, were credited elsewhere, so that all told, Oswego county sent 12,500 to the war, out of a population of less than 76,000 ; an excess of about 5,000 men, over her entire quota for "the war." After four years of fearful war ; after one of the greatest struggles the world ever knew ; success crowned both right and might, deciding that " This Union is one and inseparable,''^ and that freedom and uni- versal liberty belong to all who dwell in this great country — where good and bad, the great or poor, and oppressed of every land, find shel- ter and a home. Peace, smiling peace ! returned to bless us, and those who outlived the great fight, returned home, their breasts filled with rapture, for it was their day of hope and pride; but ah, how many did ?2o< return ! Peace did not bring joy to the hearts bowed down with grief for the loved and lost. Theirs was a noble sacrifice, and will ever be remem- bered as such by a grateful country. O, may the differences now ex- isting between the people of our country be speedily adjusted ; and may we all again become a united and happy people ; and may each State 28 OSWEGO COUNTY. once more become a •' bright particular star" in the coronet of this un- equaled nation; and in time of peace or war, in time of trouble or prosperity, ever defend '' That banner with the proud device, Excelsior." GAZETTEER OF TOWNS. Albion was taken from Richland, March 24, 1825. It is an interior town, lying east of the center of the county. Its surface is level or gently undulating. The summits of the ridges are 50 to 100 feet above the valleys, and the highest point in town is 392 feet above Lake On- tario. The low lands are wet, and in some places marshy. Salmon River, so called from the great numbers of salmon formerly found in its waters, flows through the north part. In the northeast part are two or three small ponds. The soil consists of deposits of sand and gravel, and is of medium quality. Drift deposits cover the Avhole surface, ex- cept along the river courses, where the underlying rocks crop out. — Much of the south part of the town is yet unsettled. Large quantities of lumber, lath and barrels are manufactured in town — the latter for the Onondaga salt and Oswego flour markets. Sand Bank, on Salmon River, is a station on the R. VV. & 0. R. R., midway between Water- town and Rome. It contains several stores, with shops, &c. Pincville, (Salmon River post ofiBce), a station on the railroad, situated on Salmon River, a short distance below Sand Bank — is a village of some manufac- turing interests. Neiv Centreville, a station ou the railroad, Dugway and South Albion, are hamlets. Settlement was commenced in 1812, by Gary Burdic, of Williamstown, on lot 39, and Peter Henderson, at Sand Bank. In 1813, David, Luther and Benj. Lilly, and Allen McClarn, set- tled in the town. The first birth was that of a son of Luther Lilly, in 1813 ; the first marriage, that of Henry Baker and Lucy Burdic. in 1819 ; and the first death that of a son of Luther Lilly, in 181.3. The first inn was kept by Dr. Brace, at Sand Bank, in 1814 ; and Ihe first store by Ammi Hinkley, in 1828. The Lilly Brothers, built the first saw mill in 1813, and Ezekiel Smith the first grist mill, in 1818. The first school was taugVtby Svlvia Breed, in the summer of 1817. Popu- lation of town in 1865, 3,33b'. No. of voters, 599. Area, 25,305| acres. Amboy was formed from Williamstown, March 25, 1830. Its name was proposed by Frederick Andrews. It lies ujjon the east border of the county, south of the center. The surface is rolling, and has a gen- eral southerly inclination. Its highest point is about 450 feet above Lake Ontario. Its principal streams are Fish Creek and other small tributaries of Oneida Lake. In the south and west parts are numerous small lakes and ponds, the principal of which are Panther Lake, North and South Ponds. The north half of the town is in the region of the OSWEGO COUNTY. 29 gray sandstone, and the south half that of the red or Medina sandstone. The soil is principally a sandy or gravelly loam. West Amhoy contains 1 church, (Union), 1 school house, 1 hotel, 4 stores, 1 tannery and 37 houses, Amboy Center^ contains 2 churches, (Methodist Episcopal and Baptist), 1 school house, 1 hotel, 3 stores and 20 houses. Carterville, located in the southeastern part, derives its name from Robert G. Car- ter, through whose enterprise, mainly, it owes its existence. Besides a sawmill and grist mill, Mr. Carter carries on quite an extensive tanning business at this place, requiring the use of about 10,000 hides, and 2,000 cords of bark per year. There are in his tannery 68 lay way and 20 hand- ler's vats. Barrels are the great staple of the town, nearly every house having a cooper shop attached. The peeling of bark has also proved a profitable employment to the inhabitants, who find a ready market at the neighboring tanneries. Farming has been too much neglected. The tannery at West Amboy, at present under the supervision of F. M. Berry, was established in 1850, by Young & Cromwell, who, in 1857, sold their interest to the present proprietor, Mr. Henry J. Brooks. It has since been enlarged to twice its former capacity. The hides are received from New York, to the amount of 22,000 per year, all of which are manufactured into sole leather, and gives cmjjloyment to thirty men. There are in the tannery 125 layway and 55 handler's vats. 5,000 cords of bark and 1,200 cords of wood are consumed annually. The works are driven by a 35 horse-power engine. New York is the market for the leather. Amboy sent 184 men to the war during the late rebellion of the Southern States, and paid them $18,021.66 in bounties. Joseph Perkins was the first settler, in 1805 ; the same year ke built the first inn. Among the early settlers were David Smith, in 1815 ; "William and Isaac Claxton, and John Drought, in 1818 ; and Sage Park in 1821. The ilrst saw mill was built in 1822 by Jabez Durphy, and the first grist mill by Sage Park, in 1828. The first school was taught by Cynthia Stoddard, in the summer of 1823. The first male child born was Edmund Durfee, in consequence of which he afterward inher- ited fifty acres of land from Wm. Short. The first death was that of Joseph Perkins. Population of the town in 1865, was 1,423, No. of voters, 356. Area, 24,397^ acres. Boylston was formed from Orwell, Feb. 7, 1828. It was named from Thos. Boylston, who held, for a few hours, the title of a tract since known as the Boylston Purchase. He never owned the tract ; the con- sequence was simply a trust, and it quickly passed into other hands. It lies upon the north border of the county, east of the c( nter. Its sur- face is rolling in the center and east, and moderately hilly in the west It has a westerly inclination, and its highest points are 700 to 800 feet above tide. The soil in the north and west parts is a productive, grav- elly loam, the underlying rock being the Lorraine shale. The south- east corner of the town extends into the gray limestone region, and the soil is light and thin. Boylston, (post office) is in the northwest part. The first settlement was made in 1810, on lots two and three, by John "Wort and Michael Sweetman, both from Canajoharie. David Webb also came in the same year, II. Streeter in 1814, and Peter and Samuel "Wells in 1815. The first birth was that of Phebe Ann Wood ; the first marriage, that of Samuel Wells and Elizabeth Gordon ; and the first death, that of an infant child of Mi". Ward. Reuben Snyder built the 30 OSWEGO COUNTY. first saw mill, in 1823. The first school was taught by Polly Allport, in 1817. Population of the town in 1865, 060. No. of voters, 220. Area, 22,865 acres. Constantia, named by the proprietor, Geo. Scriba, was formed from Mexico, April 8, 1808. Hastings was taken off in 1825, and West Monroe in 1839. It lies upon the north shore of Oneida Lake in the southeast corner of the county. The surface is nearly level, and is slightly inclined towards the south. The principal streams are Scriba and Black Creeks, flowinl8 are divided into four distinct grades : Primary, Junior, Senior and High Schools. Of the Primary Schools there are tvelve, located in different parts of the city, convenient to the homes of the children. Of the Junior Schools there are four, located one in each ward of the city. There are two Senior Schools, one on each side of the river ; and one High School, including the whole city. For each grade is prescribed a thi;ee years' course of study ; making, from the time of entering the Primary OSWEGO COUNTY. 37 School to the time of graduating at the High School, twelve years. In each grade are three classes, each class ' being exactly together in all their studies, with one teacher for every fifty pupils. Each class requires a year to complete the requisite course. Pupils are admitted in the Spring at five years of age and over ; but, not entering at that time, they are not permitted to enter during the year, unless six years of age and over, and prepared to enter some class already organized. The effect of this is to prevent the inconvenience arising from the formation of new classes during the year. Thus, at the close of the year, one class graduates from each school ; and, at the beginning of the year, a new class comes in ; and all the intermediate classes are advanced one year. By this arrangement the classification is kept perfect, each teacher having from forty to fifty pupils, exactly together in all their studies. The course of instruction is so defined that each teacher in every grade knows exactly how much is to be accomplished in each subject, each term and each year, throughout the entire course. For the first five years, the instruction is strictly oral, if we except the use of a spelling book the fourth and fifth years, and the introduction of a book in arithmetic the fifth year. This instruction is based on what is famiharly known as the "object method," and in conformhy to Pesta- lozzian principles. Aside from these regularly graded schools, there is an Unclassified School, designed for those pupils who, from various causes, cannot be properly accommodated in the other schools. Here the subjects or branches are accommodated to the wants of each individual pupil. The Arithmetic School is only taught in the winter, and is clesigned for those pupils who are so occupied in the summer as not to be able to attend school. The principal subjects taught are reading, writing and arithmetic. It opens about the first of December, and closes with March. The Evening School is for pupils who are employed during the day, and can only attend evenings. It is kept open about the same time as the Arithmetic School. The Oswego Normal and Training School was established to give teachers, not only a theoretical, but a practical knowledge of the most approved methods of teaching. In its Model and Practicing Schools every facility is aff'orded for observation and practice under the direc- tion of the most competent critics. There are two distinct depart- ments in the school : one for the training of teachers for the Primary and Common Schools of the State, and the other for the High Schools and Academies. In the courses preparatory to the Training Depart- ments, which latter are devoted exclusively to professional instruction, all the branches usually pursued in the common schools and academies are taught. The building is 153 feet front and 130 feet deep, and is capable of accommodating from 250 to 300 pupils in the Normal Department, and from 50O to 600 in the Model and Practicing Schools. It is located in a pleasant part of the city, and commands a fine view of the lake, harbor, the city and surrounding country. The most com- petent teachers have been employed in every department, and no effort will be spared to make it a school of a high order. . There is no charge for tuition or text books used in the School ; and, to all living in the State, the traveling expenses actually incurred in coming to the School will be refunded at the close of each term. The price of board is from $3.50 to $4.00 per week. Those desiring to board themselves can do 38 OSWEGO COUNTY. so, and thus very much reduce the cost of living. The year is divided into two terms of twenty weeks each. The Fall Term commences the second Wednesday in September, and the Spring Term the fourth Wednesday in February. Fort Ontario, situated on a bluff on the east side of the river, over- looking the harbor and lake, was first erected by the English at the commencement of the '• Old French War," in 1753. The earlier history of this Fortress will be found in the preceding pages. In 1839, Congress deemed it expedient to again rebuild this Fort. Accordingly, in August of that year, the War Department issued an order to Lieut. Leadbetter, then at Albany, directing him to commence the reconstruction of Fort Ontario immediately. The work was accordingly proceeded with, and completed in 1846. Kyanized wood was employed to form the slopes of the trenches and breastworks, filled in with heavy earthworks. On the breaking out of the Rebellion, the Fort was again considered but a poor defense against the arts of modern warfare. Plans and an appropriation were therefore made for the erection of a new fort on the site of the old works, The new Fort will be a regular pentagon in shape, constructed of solid masonry, seven and a half feet thick, and — if the original plan is carried out — twenty feet in hight. A subsequent plan was however made which contemplates re- ducing the originally proposed hight to fifteen feet, with the exception of the gateway front, which has already attained the hight (twenty feet) originally proposed. The work of reconstruction was commenced in 1863, since which time an annual appropriation of $50,000 has been made towards its completion. The work is under the able superintendence of CaiDt. J. A. Smith, of the Engineer Corps, and is being rapidly proceeded with. The scientific and substantial manner in which the work has so far been performed, proves Capt. Smith to be an officer of efficiency and ability in his profession, and " the right man in the right place." The foundation of the wall is laid to the hight of a few feet for the entire circumference, following the angles, being about half a mile. In the angle each side of the sally port is a set of three case- mates, with rifle galleries attached. These are most substantially built, and will render the trenches of Fort Ontario a dangerous position for an enemy. Casemates, or rifle galleries, are also to be built in each of the other angles of the Fortress. If the original plan is carried out, about ten years will be required to complete the works ; but if the newer plan is followed, five or six years will suffice for their completion. An excellent quarry, from which all the stone required for the worit is procured, is located on the government land, a little cast of the Fort. The post is at present garrisoned by Company E., Fourth Infantry, under Capt. C. H. Carlton, Brevet Lieut.-Colonel. During the past season, the Government has forwai'ded to this jjost three Rodman guns, of large caliber. They are sixteen feet long, twelve feet in circumfer- ence at the breech, weigh within a few pounds of twenty-five tons each, and carry 450 pound shot. In making excavations during the past summer, several cannon balls, of the weight of nine, twelve and eighteen pounds, and a piece of a shell, were taken from the remains of the original earthworks, where they have evidently lain since 1756,- — 1 10 years ago. Several other relics of the original earthworks have also been exhumed. The commerce of Oswego is very extensive, and is increasing much more rapidly than the population. Being situated near the foot of lake OSWEGO COUNTY. 39 navigation, and nearer to New York than any other lake port, it has com- mercial facilities superior to those of most of the western cities. A considerable share of the produce of the West flows through this port on its way to the seaboard markets, and it is the principal entrepot of the agricultural products of Canada West. The salt of Onondaga is mostly distributed through the Great West from this place ; and vast quantities of the manufactured goods of the East are sent through the same channel. The following are the lake imports at Oswego, of some of the princi- pal articles of trade in 1865 : Flour, bbls 32,550 Heading, pieces 1,890,146 Wheat bu 6,275,919 Lath, No 7,072,389 Corn, bu 2,481,006 Hoope 12,871300 Oats, bu 385.736 Staves 1,971,985 Barley, bu 8,107,281 Shingles 9,740,125 Rye, bu 425.8fi9 Lumber, ft 176,438,696 Peas, bu 151,401 The following table shows the amount of flour, grain and lumber, exported by canal and railroad during the same year : Canal. Bailroad. Total. Flonr.bhlB 277,814 253.865 531.679 Grain, bu 8.3.34 664 1-2,554 8,467 218 Lumber,ft 174,401,(60 3,869,460 178,270,520 The manufacturing interests have attained to considerable magnitude, although the vast water power of Oswego River is occupied but to a limited extent. Flour made from the wheat of Canada and the Western States, forms the leading article of manufacture. The Oswego mills, sixteen in number, with an aggregate of seventy-five run of stone, are capable of grinding and packing 7,500 barrels of flour per day. Five of these mills are located on the harbor, and elevate their grain from lake vessels and discharge flour and grain into canal boats. Seven grain warehouses on the river elevate and discharge in the same way. The other mills, located above, elevate from and discharge into canal boats. The elevating capacity on this harbor is about 40,000 bushels per hour, and the storage room over 2,000,000 bushels of grain — ren- dering Oswego the best receiving port on the lakes. Oswego has the largest manufacturing establishment of its kind in the world, and j^et how few in Oswego or its vicinity have ever been inside its doors, interested themselves in its magnitude, or appreciated its great benetits to the city. We allude to the Oswego Starch Fac- tory, on the Varick canal. This extensive manufacturing establishment was organized under the General Law of the State of New York, in March, 1848, under the corporate name of The Oswego Stakch Fac- tory, and is located in the Third Ward of this city. The whole history of the manufacture of starch from Indian corn, is nearly all comprised within the brief period which has elapsed since this company was organized; and to the manufacturers in this establish- ment, Thomas Kingsford & Son, is Justly due the entire credit of invent- ing the process for making this beautiful and valuable article. Prior to 1842, the starch of commerce had been made from wheat and potatoes. In this year, T. Kingsford, who was then engaged in superintending the making of starch from wheat, instituted a series of experiments to ascertain whether starch could be made from Indian corn, that should equal, if not rival, that made from wheat. After a long course of arduous and unremitting perseverence, involving a pro- cess entirely distinct from that which had been known in the manufao- 40 ' OSWEGO COUNTY. turing of starch from wheat, his labors were crowned with the most complete success. After he had prosecuted the business in this new mode, from this new material, on a comparatively small scale, for a time sufBcicntly long to insure the result beyond contingency, a number of gentlemen of Auburn, N. Y., associated with him, and in 1848 built a factory which at that time was considered of unusually large size and capacity, and constituted T. Kingsford & Son the manufacturers. The unequalled purity and excellence of this starch secured for it, within a few months after its introduction to the public, a high reputation, creating a demand beyond the capacity of the factory to supply, and the next year it became necessary to enlarge its capacity. Beyond that time the demand continued to increase, and the factory was again enlarged. The knowledge of its superiority, which, at the first, had been confined to comparatively narrow circles, had now reached to England and other remote places, creating a still increasing demand, which, in 1856, resvilted in the building of another factory, ex- ceeding in capacity the original one with all its additions. Since 1862 the work of improvement has still gone on in the factory with unabated vigor, and its capacity has been greatly increased. In 1863-4, the manufacturers erected a stone building with iron frame, at a cost of $20!^, 000. It is filled with cisterns and a great variety of ma- chinery. The older buildings have been supported by iron frames and braces inside the wooden frames, thus rendering them more safe and capable of supporting the great weight they are subjected to. This mammoth establishment comprises a front of 510 feet, termina- ting at either extremity by a massive fire-proof wall, eighty-five feet high, to protect against fire from neighboring buildings, and extends back over the Oswego River 200 feet. It has 310,240 feet of flooring, or more than sufiicient to cover seven acres. The building is lighted in part by 158 sky -lights. It has 675 cisterns or vats, containing an ao-^7. Area, 24,674i acres. OSWEGO COUNTY. 51 Scriba^ named in honor of George Scriba, the original proprietor of this and several adjoining towns, was taken from " Fredericksburgh" (now Volney) as part of Oneida county, April 5, 1811. It lies upon Lake Ontario and the East bank of Oswego River. Its surface is roll- ing, the ridges extending North and South, and elevated 100 to 180 feet above the lake. It is drained by Black Creek, flowing South, and Nine Mile, Four Mile, and Wine Creeks flowing North. Upon several of the streams are valuable mill privileges. The soil is a gravelly and sandy loam, stoney in places and only moderately fertile. Apples and barrels are among the staple products of the Town. Scriba Corners, (Scriba P. 0.) is a small village near the center of the town. North Scriba is a hamlet and a station on the R. and 0. R. R. The first settlement was made by Henry Evarts in 1708. Asahel Bush ond Samuel Tiffany settled in town in 1801 ; Wm. Burt and Hiel Stone in 1805, and Dr. Deodatus Clark in 1807. The first birth was that of Henry Evarts, Jr.; the first marriage that of John Masters and Elsie Baldwin, in 1806, and the first death that of a child of Hiram Warner. The first inn was kept by Hiel Stone, in 1806, and the first store by Orrin Stone and Aaron Parkhurst, in 1819. Benjamin Robin- son, from Manlius taught the first school, in 1804. Population of the town in 1862 was 3.315. No. of voters 791. Area, 23,334^ acres. Volney, named in honor of Volney the French author, who visited the town in 1808, while on a tour through the United States, was form- ed (by the name of " Fredericksburgh'' ) from Mexico, as part of Oneida County, March 21, 1806. Its name was changed April 5, 1811. Scriba was taken off in 1811, and Schrceppel and Palermo in 1883. It lies upon the east bank of Oswego River, south west of the center of the county. Its surface is undulating, with high, steep banks border- ing upon the river. The ridges are 50 to 100 feet above the valleys, and 100 to 300 feet above Oswego River. The Red Sandstone crops out on the bank of the river, and is extensively quarried for building stone. The falls upon the river furnish an immense amount of water- power. The soil is a sandy and gravelly loam. Fulton, named in honor of Robert Fulton, (it was originally called •' Oswego Falls^'') on Oswego River, twelve miles above its mouth, was incorijorated April 29, 1835, and is the largest village in the County. It contains six or seven churches, the Falley Seminary, a newspaper office, two banks, a first-class hotel, and a large number of stores and manufacturing establishments. The portage at this place was the only interruption in the internal water communication between Schenectady and the ports upon Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River, after the construction of the Canal connecting Wood Creek with the Mohawk River, by the Western Navigation Company, in 179G. The interest taken in educational matters is one of the most interest- ing features of this village. The i)ublic schools are well sustained and patronized. The Seminary has long maintained an enviable notoriety as a first- class educational institution, and the number, character and attainment of its annual graduates, has earned for it a well-merited reputation, which a discerning public has not failed to appreciate and reward. — Falley Seminary had its origin from the following circumstances : — In 1833, a Miss Gardner, who had previously taught one of the district 52 OSWEGO COUNTY. schools in that community, of)ened a select school in the building now standing on the corner of Oneida and Third streets, which proved to be a very successfnl enterprize. She had over seventy pupils. She was a lady of great energy and fine attainments. In July, 1834, she left America on her way to India as a Missionary. She was the first Missionary to foreign lands from this county. Her industry, her virtues, and her piety, left their impress upon the youth that had been under her charge. She afterwards became the wife of the Rev. Mr. Abbot, and died in India. The success which had attended the labors of Miss Gardner, in the establishment of her school, was no doubt instrumental in prompt- ing the Rev. John Eastman, who was at that time supplying the pulpit of the Presbyterian Congregation, and who was well acquainted with the condition of Miss Gardner's school, to embark in the enter- prize of establishing a Seminary here, for the education of young ladies. In September, 1834, Mr. Eastman opened a school in the same build- ing that had been occupied by Miss Gardner. The patronage he re- ceived was so encouraging that in May, 183G, through the liberality of the prominent citizens here, an institution was incorporated by the name of the " Fulton Female Seminary." The trustees named in the act were John Eastman, A. G. Fish, Thomas R. Brayton, John E. Button, George Salmon, M. Lindley Lee, Israel P. Knox, Chauncey Betts, Henry Westfall, Henry Pear- son, Samuel Merry, and Lemuel Dada. As early as 1839 the Regents of the University of the State of New York began to bestow upon it a share of the Literature Fund. Mr. Eastman continued to have charge of the institution until 1836, when Miss Maria C. Maynard was elected preceptress. She continued in charge until 1841. Under her management the school became one of the most useful and popular institutions in central and west- ern New York. She was a lady of superior talents and of a very high order of intellectual acquirements ; added to all these were the gifts of a genial nature, a heart overflowing with kindness and benev- olence, and great personal energy and decision of character. More than four hundred young ladies went out from this seat of learning, with minds not only cultivated with substantial erudition, under her supervision, but with hearts fired and imbued by her example, with pure and exalted sentiments of virtue and goodness, to act their part in the great drama of life. Miss Maynard afterwards became the wife of Mr. George Salmons. She died May G, 1861 ,universally respected and lamented. In 1841 steps were taken to still further increase the usefulness of this school by throwing it open to youth of both sexes. The name was changed in 1842 to " The Fulton Academy." In 1843 Amos G. Hull was elected Principal. He suspended his law studies to take charge of the institution temporarily, until a permanent Principal could be obtained. He was succeeded by Eev. E. E. Brag- don, who continued to have charge of the school as Principal until 1844. Rev. B. H. Caldwell was elected Principal in 1844 and was continued as such two years. Rev. Theodore Parsons was elected Principal in 1846. In 1848 Rev. E. E. Bragdon was re-elected Princi- pal. He was succeeded by J. R. French, Esq., in 1853. The institu- tion having received large donations from Hon. George F. Falley, and OSWEGO COUNTY. 53 in 1849 his widow having donated $4,000 more, to perpetuate the name of these benefactors the title of the institution was changed by an act of the Legislature in 1849, to the " Falley Seminary of the Black River Conference." About this time a large lot was donated by Col. James L. Voorhees, on which to build a new edifice. Funds were raised to some extent, under the supervision of the Methodist denomination, by selling scholarships. A large and elegant edifice was built. Debts were contracted which eventually embarrassed the institution. The Rev. J. W. Armstrong was elected Principal in 1854, the Rev. Dr. Hapgood in 1855. He was succeeded by Rev. Henry Mansfield. — About this time it became doubtful whether the Seminary could sur- vive the pressure of debts that Avere weighing it down. The citizens of Fulton and Oswego Falls came forward with a laudable liberality and contributed over three thousand dollars. That did not extinguish the debt. The services of Prof. John P. Grifiin, who had been very successful as a teacher and in promoting the interests of kindred insti- tutions, were secured as Principal. He has invested much of his own funds in the institution. He has made great pecuniary sacrifices to pro- mote its interests and is bestowing upon it his unremitting attention. Under his care and circumspection, aided as it is by a very superior corps of professors and teachers, it is emerging from debt, constantly increasing in patronage and usefulness, and is now regarded as one of the best conducted seminaries of learning in the land. v The institution has a very well selected library, and good chemical and philosophical apparatus. The history of the Press of Fulton will be found in the general history of the county on page 21. Fulton has become a business center for a large agricultural district, including the towns of Volney and Granby, and parts of Scriba, Pal- ermo, Hastings, Scrceppel, Lysander and Hannibal. Its geographical position ; the local advantages growing out of its unrivalled water pow- er ; its distance from the thriving cities of Oswego and Syracuse, are considerations which will forever intervene to prevent it from undergo- ing the absorbing process incident to villages located near rapidly growing cities. The water-power and the facilities for using it, at this place, are unsurpassed by any in the State. The Oswego River, drain- ing the numerous large lakes in the interior of the State, having such immense fountains spread over a large extent of comparativly level ter- ritory, is never afi'ected by freshets or drouth, sufficient to impair its usefulness in propelling machinery at any season of the year. This is particularly true of Fulton, owing to the immense pond, or reservoir, formed above the Oswego Falls by the State Dam, the reservoir being nearly five miles long, and of great depth. These unrivalled facilities for manufacturing purposes have not been entirely overlooked by men of enterprise and capital. The manufactories consist of several exten- sive flouring mills, woolen and knitting factories, paper mills, barrel factories, iron foundries and machine shops, capable of manufacturing almost every branch of machinery from the ponderous steam engine down to the most delicate class of mechanism. Another branch of industry which is in process of development is the manufacture and utilization o^ peat as a fuel, valuable deposits of which have recently been discovered in this section of the country. The Fulton Peat Company was formed for this purpose in 1865. A small farm of twenty-five acres in the town of Palermo, adjoining the town of Volney, on which some eighteen acres of a valuable deposit of this article had been discovered, was purchased by this company, and preparations made for the future working of the bed. The bed itself has an average depth of seven feet of pure j^eat ; and by those who have examined and tested it by use, is considered superior in quality to most deposits of the kind in our country. No effort has as yet been made by the company to introduce their peat into market, their efforts having been confined thus far to clearing and draining the land, preparatory to a more vigorous development. They have in contemplation, however, the procuring of a machine for condensing it, which will facilitate its manufacture, and render it better adapted for the purpose for which a kind Providence has designed it. On the 17th of August, 1851, the business part of Fulton was almost entirely consumed by fire ; yet such were the resources, and so indo- mitable the energy of the people, that before the 1st of December of the same year, almost every place of business was rebuilt, and several large, fine brick blocks, erected in addition. More recently, on the morning of the 1st of August, 186G, another disastrous fire took place, by which a considerable portion of the business and resident part of the village was destroyed, and a loss entailed of from $75,000 to $80,000 ; but the same principles of energy and public spirit w^hich enabled the people to pass through the " fiery ordeal" of 1851, and overcome its threatened disastrous results, still emulate their hearts, and more substantial buildings are, phoenix like, rapidly arising from the ashes of their pre- decessors. In fact, both fires have proved a positive benefit to the place, Aaron G. Fish was the first President of the village. Population about 4 000. Seneca Hill, on Oswego River, in the northwest corner of the town, is a small village, and, a few years since could boast of the largest flour- ing establishment in the State ; but, two or three years ago it fell a l)rey to that devouring element which has, of late, desolated so many portions of our fair country. This flouring mill had fifteen run of stone, with a separate wheel to each run, and a capacity of grinding and pack- ing 1,200 barrels of Hour per day. Volney Corners, (Volney P. 0.) near the center, is a small village. Daniel Masters settled at Oswego Falls in 1793 ; Lawrence VanVal- kenburgh, below the Falls, in 1795, and John VanBuren in 1796. — John Waterhouse settled in the town in 1797, and Ebenezer Wright in 1800. The first birth after the permanent settlement was in 1795 ; and the first death that of John Waterhouse, in August, 1799. Daniel IVIas- ters kept the first inn at the Falls, in 1794, and he and Goodell erected the first saw mill, in 179G. Miss A. Waterhouse taught [the first school in 1800. Population of town in 18G5, 6,472. No. of voters 1,502. Area, 28,662i acres. ^WTest Zt^onroe, formed from Constantia, March 21, 1839, lies upon the North shore of Oneida Lake, southeast of the center of the county. Tbe surface is level and marshy in the south, and rolling, broken, and stony in the north.

South Carolina — Was settled at Port Royal, in 1670, by the Eng- lish, and continued under the charter of Carolina or North Carolina until they were separated in 1729. It was one of the original thirteen States, ratifyingthe United States Constitution May 23, 1798 ; it framed a State Constitution March 26. 1776, which was amended March 19, 1778, and June 3, 1790. Area, 34,000 square miles. Population, 703,- 708, of whom 402,406 were slaves, an excess of 101,270 over the whites. It is the principal rice-growing state. Whites, who have resided in the state two years and district six months, and have a freehold of fifty acres of land, or have paid a state tax, are entitled to vote. December 17, 1860, a Convention assembled in Columbia, adjourned to Charles- ton, and on the 24th unanimously adopted an ordinance of secession, which was followed the next day by a Declaration of Causes claimed to be sufficient to justify the act. Tennessee — Was settled at Fort Donelson, in 1756, by emigrants from Virginia and North Carolina ; was ceded to the United States by North Carolina, December, 1789, conveyed by the Senators of that state February 25, 1790, and accepted by act of Congress, April 2, of the same year ; it adopted a Constitution February 6, 1796, and was admitted into the Union the 1st of June following. Area, 45,000 64 THE STATES, THEIR SETTLEMENT, ETC. square miles. Population, 1,109,801, of whom 275,170 were slaves. It is a mining and agricultural state, and is largely productive of live stock. Citizens of the United States who have resided six months in a county are entitled to vote. A military league was formed between the Governor, Isham G. Harris, and the rebel States, May 7, 1861, ratified the same day by the Senate by a vote of 14 to 6, and a Decla- ration of Independence submitted to the people, the election to be held June 8, the result of which was declared by the Governor, June 24, to be 104,913 for, and 47,238 against. This movement not being accep- table to the people of East Tennessee, which had declared against separation by a vote of 32,923 to 14,780, they, in a Convention held at Greenville, June 18-21, repudiated it. Texas — Was settled at Bexar, in 1094, by Spaniards ; formed a part of Mexito until 1836, when she revolted from that Republic and instituted a separate government, under which she existed until ad- mitted into the Union by a joint resolution approved March 1, 1845, imposing certain conditions which were accepted, and a Constitution formed July 4 of the same year, and another joint resolution adopted by Congress, consummating the annexation, was approved December 27, 1845. Area, 274,356 square miles. Population, 604,215, of whom 182,566 were slaves. It is an agricultural region, principally devoted to grain, cotton and tropical fruits. Free white male citizens of twenty-one years of age, who, having resided in the state one year and district six months, are entitled to vote. A Convention assembled at Galveston January 28, 1861, and on February 1, passed an ordinance of secession by a vote of 16G to 7, to be submitted to the people Feb- ruary 23, and on March 4 the}'- declared the state out of the Union, and Gov. Houston issued a proclamation to thatefl'ect. • Vermont — Was settled in 1724, by Englishmen from Connecticut, chiefly under grants from New Hampshire ; was formed from a part of the territory of New York by act of its Legislature, March 6, 1760 ; framed a State Constitution December 25, 1777, and was admitted into the Union March 4, 1791, by virtue of an act of Congress passed Feb- ruary 18 of the same year. Area, 10,212 square miles. Population, olo,i)98. It is a grazing region, producing more wool, live stock, ma- ple sugar, butter, cheese, and hay, in proportion to its population, than any other state. Any citizen of the United States who has resided in the state one year, and will take the oath of allegiance, is entitled to vote. Virginia — Was settled at Jamestown, in 1607, by the English, and was chartered April 10, 1606, May 23, 1609, and March 12, 1612. It was one of the original thirteen states, ratifying the United States Constitution, June 25, 1788; it framed a State Constitution July 5, 1776, whicli was amended January 15, 1830. The state was dividel in 1863. Present area, 37,352 square miles. Population in 1860, 1,314,532, of whom 481,410 were slaves. It is a large corn-producing, and the chief tobacco-growing state. Every white male citizen of the age of twenty-one years, who has been a resident of the state for one year, and of the county, city or town where he offers to vote for six months next preceding an election, and has paid all taxes assessed to him, after the adoption of the Constitution, under the laws of the com- monwealth after the re-organization of the county, city or town where THE STATES, THEIR SETTLEMENT, ETC. 65 he offers to vote, is qualitied to vote for members of the general assem- bly, and all oflBcers elective by the people, Provided, he takes the pre- scribed oath of allegiance, repudiating the so-called act of secession. — A Convention sitting in Richmond on the 17th of April, 1861, passed an ordinance of secession, by a vote of 88 to 55, which was submitted to the people at an election to be held May 23, the result of which was announced June 25, to be 128,824 for, and 32,134 against. West Virginia — On the passage of the ordinance of secession by the Virginia Convention, a Convention of the western and other loyal counties of the state was held at Wheeling, which assembled May 11, 1861, and on the 17th unanimously deposed the then state oflBcers and organized a provisional government. On the 26th of November, 1861, a Convention representing the western counties assembled in Wheeling and framed a Constitution for West Virginia, which was submitted to the people on the 3rd of May, 1862, and adopted by them by a nearly unanimous vote. The division of the state was sanctioned by the Leg- islature May 13, J 862, and ratified by Congress by an act approved December 31, 1862, conditioned on the adoption of an amendment to the Constitution providing for the gradual abolition of slavery, which was done on the 24th March, 1863, by a vote of the qualified electors of the proposed state, 28,318 voting in favor of the amendment and 572 against it. In pursuance of the act of Congress, the President issued a proclamation April 20, 1863, admitting the state sixty days from the date thereof, and on the 20th of June the new state government was formally inaugurated. Area, 24,000 square miles. Population, in 1860, 350,599, of wliom 12,754 were slaves. It is a large corn-producing state, and abounds in coal and other minerals. Wisconsin — Was settled at Green Bay, in 1669, by the French ; was a part of the territory ceded by Virginia, and was set off from Michigan December 23, 1834, and organized into a territory April 30, 1836. Iowa was set off from it June 12, 1838, and acts were pas?ed at various times settling its boundaries. March 3, 1847, an act for its ad- mission into the Union was passed, to take effect on the issuing of a proclamation by the President, and by act of May 29, 1848, it was ad- mitted into the Union. Area, 53,924 square miles. Population 775,- 881. It is an agricultural state, chiefly engaged in grain-raising and wool-growing. White citizens of the United States, or white foreigners who have declared their intention to become citizens, are entitled to vote. Note.— As raany of the states are now " reorganizing," great changes will be made in thc'r organic laws necessary ti adapt them to the new order of things. The ques tion of suffinse will not, it is presumed, be disturbed to the 6xtent of permitting all native born males, over twenty-one, and for one year a resident of the state, to vote. 9 66 THE TERRITORIES. THE TERRITORIES. THEIR BOUNDARIES, AREA, PHYSICAL FEATURES, ETC. Arizona — Was organized by the Thirty-Seventh Congress, in the winter of 1863, out of the western half of New Mexico, the boundary between the two territories being the 109th meridian (32d west from Washington,) and indudes the greater portions of the valleys of Colo- rado and Gila, two rivers which drain its entire surface, vjhh parts of Utah, New Mexico and Nevada, and yet convey, it is reported, a less volume of water to the sea than the Hudson at Albany. The fertile Messilla Valley was left with New Mexico. The territory forms a block nearly square, and contaius 126,141 square miles, or 80,730,240 acres. Its white population is about 10,000. The first pioneers of Arizona were, in the opinion of the illusti-ious Humboldt, Asiatics, and reached the land of Ophir by Behring's Straits. They have left monuments of their industry in Arizona, marking their era with indubitable evidences of civilization. A lonely citadel stands near the Pima villages, in the midst of a desert, as the only milestone of time left to mark the passage of this race. The house has five stones yet remaining, and was sur- rounded by a city covering an area of some ten miles square, watered by canals from the Gila river. Of this race little or nothing is known. The next pioneers were the proud Hidalgos of old uSpain. who bore the banner and the cross from Vera Cruz to San Francisco. Indomitable in war and zealous in religion, they marched with the torch of civilization in one hand and the cross of faith in the other. They were noble men and nobly did their work. The monuments of their devotion are spread from Cape Horn to Oregon. The next pioneers were Americans. In the year 1824 a party of about 100 hardy and adventurous frontiers- men set out upon a trapping expedition to the head waters of the Arr kansas river. After many romantic adventures in New Mexico the part)^ dispersed, ind a few of the bolder spirits undertook to reach the Pacific Ocean. They spent one winter at the celebrated mines of San- ta Rita del Cobre., on the head waters of the Gila river, and the next spring trapped down that river to its confluence with the Colorado. — Here they embarked their canoes on the turbid waters of the Colorado, and drifted down to the Gulf of California, whence they crossed the peninsula to the Pacific ocean. The wealth of Arizona is but just be- coming known. Its ancient ruins were among the best in the world, yet they have had to give way, in interest and value, to the newly- opened placers and veins. The territory is literally veined with the precious metals, but, the terrible aridity of the soil and the presence of those irrepressible tigers of the plains — the Comnanches and the Apaches — render the territory less tempting to wealth-hunters than the more northerly regions where gold and silver are as plenty, water and wood more accessible, and the Indians are less of a nuisance. Colorado — Was organized March 2d, 1861, from parts of Kansas, Nebraska and Utah, and is situated on each side of the Rocky Moun- THE TEERITORIES. 67 tains, between latitude 37 ® and 41 ° , and longitude 25 ° and 33 ® west from Washington. Area, 100,475 square miles. Population 80,- 000, besides numerous tribes of Indians. It is a superior grazing; and cattle-producing region, with a healthy climate and rich soil ; an exten- sive coal bed, and also gold, iron and other minerals abound. Its pojD- ulation is rapidly increasing. Several fine towns serve as centers of supply and trade, and offer fine faciUties for schools, churches, etc. — The direct route from Fort Kearney to Salt Lake passes through the northern part of the territory, and a fine road from Denver city to the overland route, makes the region around Pike's Peak easily accessible. The mineral resources of Colorado are opening up very advantageously to operate capital. The Colorado mines differ somewhat from those of California, where placer and gulch mining permit single operatives to do a good business. The Colorado metals run in beds, mixed with quartz and pyrites, necessitating all the appliances of underground mining, crushing mills, etc., to render the ores available. This will deter adventurers, to some extent, from settling in Colorado ; but it will call in heavy capital, will raise up large communities, will compel large cultivation of the rich valleys, and thus render the territory, with its magnificent climate, one of the best of regions for the enterprising man to settle. Dakota — Was first settled by employees of the Hudson Bay Com- pany, but is now being peopled by emigrants from the Northern and Western States. It was set off from the western portion of Minnesota when that territory became a State in 1857, and was organized March 2d, 1861. Area, 148,932 square miles or 95,316,480 acres. Population in 1864 was 2,576 whites, and 2,261 Indians, beside the roving tribes. Being easily accessible by the Missouri river, which runs through its very heart, from the southeast corner to its northwestern corner, and bounded on its entire northeastern line by the Red River of the north, this territory offers unusual facilities for agricultural and grazing opera- tions. Its population is small, o.nly because the great tide of emigra- tion is setting into the gold regions — which Dakota is not, save as it is coined out of the products of the plough or the drove. Idaho — Was organized by the Thirty-Seventh Congress, at its se- cond,session,'in the winter of 1868. Its name means ' Bead of the Moun- tains,' and it embraces the whole breadth of the Rocky Mountain region, and has within its bounds the head waters of nearly all the great rivers that flow down its either slope, but the greater portion lies east of the mountains. Its southern boundary is the 41st, its northern the 46th parallel of latitude. It extends from the 104t'h meridian on the east to the 110th on the west. Area, 326,373 square miles, or 208,878,720 acres. Says a writer in the *' National Almanac" for 1864 : " Gold has been discovered on nearly all the tributaries and head- waters of the Missouri and Yellow Stone rivers, and still farther north, reaching to and going beyond our national boundary. Platina has been gathered in small quantities from the streams by the Indians ; and some of the explorers are of the opinion that extensive deposits of this val- uable metal will be discovered. Copper and iron exist in abundance, and salt is plentiful in many localities. Coal is also found on the Up- per Missouri and Yellow Stone, and has been discovered upon the Pa- cific slope of the Rocky Mountains. The higher mountain ranges of this region are bleak and barren, but the lower hills are generally well 68 THE TEREITORIES. wooded, and the soil of the valleys productive. The whole is watered ' by numerous streams and springs, the former of which by their rapid flow afford immense water-power, which is of the utmost value for driv- ing mills, and otherwise aiding in separating the rich mineral deposits from the sands and rocks with which they are intermixed. The climate in the valleys is mild and salubrious, but upon the plains and hills it is cold, and the country is subject to deep snow." IMEontana — Was settled by emigrants from the northern and west- ern States. Organized in 1864, with tho following boundaries : Com- mencing at a point formed by the intersection of the 27 ° L. W. from Washington with the 45 ® N, L.; thence due west on said 45th degree to a point formed by its intersection with the 34th degree W. from Washington ; thence due south along said .'34th degree of longitude to its intersection with the 44th degree and 30 minutes of N. L.; thence due west along said 44th degree and 30 minutes of N. L., to a point formed by its intersection with the crest of the Rocky Mountains ; thence following the crest of the Rocky Mountains northward till its intersection with the Bitter Root Mountains ; thence northward along the crest of said Bitter Root Mountains, to its intersection with the 39th degree of longitude W". fro m Washington ; thence along said 39th degree of longitude northward to the boundary line of the British possessions; thence eastward, along said boundary, to the 27th degree of longitude W. from Washington ; thence southward, along said 27th degree to the place of beginning. This makes it the northermost territory next the States, east of the Missouri valley. It is a good mining and agricultural region. The total population is put down at 35,822. Large accessions have been made since the census was taken. The climate of Montana is, notwithstanding its hight above tide water (4,000 feet,) and its northern location, milder than in the States to the east, in the latitude of New York, owing to the influences of Pacific currents. The valleys of the Yellow Stone and its numerous tributaries, and of the Missouri river — whose head waters are in the territory, afford fine agricultural facilities, and produce wood in plenty. It is away up in the mountains, where the three forks of the Missouri river rise, that the rich placers he. Of the mines, Mr. Hall, in his "Great West," says : " The mines of the Deer Lodge and its tributaries are in extent one hundred miles and pay from $10 to $50 per day to the man. Gulch diggings in the vicinity of Bannock City, have a total length of thirty miles, and pay $8 to $40 per day. Gulch diggings in the vicinity of Virginia City are in length eighty-six miles, and pay $10 to $200 per day to the hand. Prickly Pear and its tributaries pay from $8 to $100 per day, and are in extent one hundred and forty-seven miles. Yellow Stone, lately opened near its source, in extent thirty-nine miles, pays $10 to $40 per day. Here is a total of four hundred and two miles of placer or gulch diggings being wrought at this time with wonderful results. It is estimated that at least $30,000,000 will be taken from the gulch mines alone during the year from July 1st, 1865, to July 1st, 1866." Iffebraska — Was settled by emigrants from the northern and western States, and was formed out of a part of the territory ceded by France, April 30, 1803. Attempts to organize it were made in 1844 and 1848, but it was not accomplished until May 30th, 1854. Area, 75,955 square miles, or 44,796,160 acres. Population 38,841, THE TERRITOEIES. 69 besides a few roving tribes of Indians. It is an agricultural region, its prairies afFording boundless pasture lands. The heavy tide of emigra- tion to the gold regions has somewhat retarded the first rapid increase of settlement in Nebraska ; but, with the end of the war will come a new enthusiasm for western homes, and the territory will receive a fresh impetus during the year 1866, from those seeking for cheap farms and extensive ranges for stock. Slew IKEexico — Was formed from a part of the territory ceded to the United States by Mexico, by the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, Feb- ruary 2d, 1848, and was organized into a territory September 9, 1850. Area, 121,201 square miles, or 77,568,640 acres. Population, 84,000, besides large tribes of warlike Indians. The principal resources of the country is its minerals, though enormous "ranches," scattered over the whole territory, produce immense droves of horses and cattle, who thrive on the rich "gramma" grass. The mines of New Mexico are noted for their variety and richness. Utah— Was settled by the Mormons, and was formed from a part of the territory ceded to the United States by Mexico, by the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, February 2, 1848, and was organized into a terri- tory September 9, 1850. Area, 106,393 square miles, or 68,084,480 acres. Population, 60,000. Brine, sulphureous and chalybeate springs abound ; limestone, granite, sandstone and marble are found in large quantities ; iron is abundant, and gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc have been found. Not one-fiftieth part of the soil is fit for tillage ; but on that which is, abundant crops of grain, and considerable cotton are raised. A convention was held at Great Salt Lake City, January 22, 1862, and a State Constitution formed, but it has not been acted on by Congress. VTashing'ton — Was settled by emigrants from the northern and western States, and was organized into a territory, March 2, 1853, from the northern portion of Oregon, to which was added another portion from the eastern part, when the latter territory was admitted as a State, February 14, 1859. Area, 69,994 square miles, or 48,636,800 acres. Population, 22,168, besides numerous tribes of Indians. 70 DETECTING COUNTERFEIT BANK NOTES. Infallible Rules for Detecting Counterfeit or Spurious Bank Notes. RuLH 1st.— Examine the shading of the letters in title of Bank called lathework, which in genuine notes presents an even, straight, light and silky appearance, gen- erally 80 fine and smooth as to appear to be all in one solid pale body. In the counterfeit the lines are coarse and irreg- ular,and in many of the longer lines breaks will be perceived, thus presenting a very inferior finish in comparison to genuine work. 2d.— Observe the dies, circles and ovals in the genuine; they are comprised of a network of lines, which, by crossing each other at certain angles, produce an endless variety of figures; see the one cent stamp ATTACHED. The fine line alone is the unit which enables you to detect spurious work. In the counterfeit,the repkesbnted white lines are coarse, irregular, and cross each other in a confused, irregular man- ner, thus producing blurred and imperfect figures. 3d.— Bsamine the form and features of all human figures on the note. In the gen- uine, the texture of the skin is represent- ed by flue dots and lines intermixed. In the eyes, the pupil is distinctly visible, and the white clearly seen ; the nose, mouth and chin, well formed, natural and expressive ; the lips are slightly pouting, and the chin well thrown out, and the delicate shading ©f the neck perfectly har- monizes with the rest of the figure. Ob- serve the fingers and toes; they should be clearly and accurately defined. The hair of the head should show the fine strands and present a natural appearance. The folds of the drapery of human figures should lay natural and present a fine fin- ished appearance. In the counterfeit the female figure does not bear the natural prominence in outlines ; observe, the eyes and shading surrounding does not present the lifelike appearance it should. Tbe fingers and toes are not properly and pro- portionately defined; the hair does not beir that soft and finished appearance as in the genuine. 4th. — Examine the imprint or engraver's names in the evenness and shape of the fine letters. Counterfeits never bear the imprint perfect. This rule should be strictly observed, as it is infallible iii de- tecting counterfeits. 5th.— In the genuine note the landscapes are well finished, trees and shrubs are neatly drawn, the limbs well proportioned and the foliage presenting a fine natural appearance, clear sby is formed of fine parallel lines, and when clouds or heavy skies appear, they cross each other, and bear a soft, smooth and natural appear- ance. The prospective, showing a view of the surrounding country is always clear and distinct. The small figures in the background are always plainly seen, and their outlines and geueial character re- cognized. Ships are well defined and the canvass has a clear texture; railroad cars are very accurately delineated; in examin- ing a train observe carefully the car most distant. In the counterfeit the landscape is usually poorly executed, the leaves of trees poorly and unnaturally defined. — The lines representing still water are scratchy rather than parallel, the sky is represented generally in like manner, and where rolling clouds are to be seen, the unnatural efl'ect is obvious. Domestic animals are generally poorly executed, particularly the heads and limbs; tbe eyes are seldom clearly defined. Ships are poorly drawn, tlie texture of the canvass coarse and inferior in style of workman- ship, thus giving an artificial appearance. Sailroad cars are also poorly executed; the car farthest from the eye is usually the most imperfect. The prospective is always imperfect; the figures in the back ground can seldom be recognized. 6th. — Bills altered froai a smaller to a higher denomination, can readily be de- tected by a close observer in consequence of the striking difl'erence between the parts which have been extracted and the rest of the note. This difference is readily per- ceived in the lack of color.body and finish of the dye; we have seen bills where the surrounding shading in altered dies was too dark, but from the back or finish of the white lines you have a sure test. Again observe particularly the words " Five or " Ten Dollars" as the case may be, denot- ing the denomination of the note; the parallel outlines and shading (if any) are coarse and imperfect. Alterations are fre- quently made by pasting a gre:Uer denom- ination over a smaller, bnt by holding the bill up to the light, the fraud will be per- ceived. Another method resorted to is to cut out the figures in the dies as well as the words one dollar, or the words two or three as the case may be, and with a sharp eraser, scrape down the ends and also the edges of the pieces to be inserted ; when tha pieces thus prepared are affixed they are hardly perceivable. But by passing the note through the hand, so as to feel the die both with the finger and thumb at the same time, the fraud will be detected by the stiftness of the outer edges, " occasioned by the gum or method adopted" in sfflxlng the ))urcs. The letter S should always be examined, as in many alterations it is pasted or stamped at the end of the word "dollar;" and even when stamped there, the carrying out of the out- lines for its shading will readily show the fraud. Bills of broken banks are frequent- ly altered by extracting the name of b.ink, state and town; they may readily be de- tected by observing first the state, second the title or name of the bank, third the town or location. General Remarks in Reference to Counteepbits.— The paper on which they are printed is generally of a very inferior quality, with lesa body, finish and tough- nesB than bank note paper has. The ink generally lacks the rich luster of the gen- uine; the red letters and fleures are gen- erally imperfect, and the ink does not pre- sent the Vermillion hue as it should. The printing is generally inferior, usually ex- hibiting specks of white in the most pro- minent letters. The date and filling up, and the President's and Cashier's names are generally written by the game person, although in many inetances they present a different appearance. There are bills in circulation bearing either genuine dies or vignettes ; but upon close examination you will be enabled to detect any spurious bill, whether counterfeit or altered, by the instructions here given.if persevered in for a short time. We beg to suggest, if time will admit, the learner should examine minutely every bill he receives. A pow- erful pocket magnifying glass, which can be purchased from fifty cents to one dol- lar at any of the opticians, will greatly en- able you to see and comprehend the difier- ence between genuine and spurious work.

SUCCESS IN BUSINESS. 77 HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS. What will my readers give to know how to get rich ? Now, I will not vouch that the following rules will enable every per- Boa who may read them to acquire wealth, but this 1 will answer for, that if ever a man doe? grow rich by honest means, and retaius his wealth for any length of time, he mu8 practice upon the principles laid down in the following essay. The re- marks are not original with me, but I strongly commend them to the attention of every young man, at least as atibrding the true secret of success in attaining wealth. A sinarle perusal of such an essay at an impressible moment, has sometimes a very wonderful efl'ect upon the disposi- tion and character. Fortune, they say, is a fickle dame— full of her freaks and caprices ; who blindly distributes her favors without the tligtitett discrimination, eo inconstant, so waver- ing is she represented, that her most faith- ful votaries can place no reliance on her promises. Disappointment, they tell us, is the lot of ihose who mnke < fl'erings at her shrine. Now. all this is a vile slander upon the dear blind lady. Although wealth often appears the result of mere accident, or a foriuaate concur- rence of favorable circumstanc-^s without any exertion ol skill or foresight, yet any man of sound health and unimpaired mind may become wealthy, if he takes the prop er steps Foremost in the list of requisites are honesty arid strict integrity in every trans- action of life. Let a man have the reputa- tion of being lair and upright in his deal- ings, and he will possess the confidence of all whoknowhim. Withoutthese qualities every other merit will prove unavailing. Ask concerning a msn, "Is he active and capa le?" Yes. "ludustrious, temper- ate and regular in his hubitsf" Oh yes. "Is he honest? Is he trustworthy?" Why, as to that, I am sorry to say that he is not to be trusted ; he needs watching ; he is a liitle tricky, and will take an uudue advantage, if he c in. "Then I will have nothing to do with him ;" will be the in- variable reply. Wliy, then, is honesty the best policy? Because, without it, you will get a bad name, and everybody will fchun you A character for knavery will prove an in- surmountable obstacle to success in al- most every undertaking. It will be found that the straight line is, in bueines?, as in geometry, the shortest. In a word, it is almost impossible for a dishonest man to acquire wealth by a regular process of bu- siness because he is thuuLed as a depreda- tor upon socie'y. Needy men iire apt to fleviate from the rule of integrity, under the plea that ne- ces'iitv knows no law ; they mieht aS well add thit it knovfs no shame. The course ia suicidal, nnd by destroying all confi- dence, ever keepe them immured in pov- erty, although they may possess every Other quality for success in the world. Punctuality, which is said to be the eoul of business, is ano'her important element in the art of money getting. The man known to be scrupulously exact in the ful- fillment of his engagements, gains the confidence of a'l, and may command all the means he can use with fd vantage; whereas, a man careless and regardless of his promises in money msitters will have every purse closed against him. There- fore be prompt in your payments. Next, let us consider the advantages of a cautious circumspection in our inter- course with the world. Slowness of be- lief, and a proper di-^trnst are essential to success. The ciedulous and coDfiding are ever the dupes of knaves and impostors. Ask those who have lost their property how it happened, and you will find in most cases that it has been owing to mis- phced confidence. One has lost by en- dorsing; anothei- by crediting; another j by false represtntations ; all of which a 1 little more foresight and a little more dis- trust would have prevented. Ia the af- fairs of this world men are not saved by j faith but by the want of it. Judge of men by what they do, not by what < hey .say. Believe in "looks rather i than words. Observe all their movements. I Ascertain their motives and their ends. I Notice what they say or do in their un- I guarded moments, when under the influ- ence of excitement. The passions have I been compared to tortures which force men I to revr'al their secrets Before trusting a man, before putting it in his power to cause you a loss, possess yourself of every available information reUtlve to him. I Learn his history, his habits, inclinations ! andpropensities ; his reputation for honor, 1 industry, frugality and punctuality; his I prospects, resources, supports, advanta- I ges and disadvantages ; his intentions and j motives of action ; who are his friends and I enemies, andwhat are hi" goorl or bad qual- jlities. You may learn a man's good qualities ; and advantages frr>m his friends— his bad i qualities and disadvantages from his ene- mies. Make due allowance lor exaggeration i in both FinMlIy, examine carefully before engagine in anything, and act with energy afterwards. Have the hundred eyes of Argus ^eforehand, and the hundied hands of Uriarins afterwards. Order and systein in the management of busines^s must not be reglecfed. Nothing contributes more to dispatch Have a place for everyttiing and everything in its place; a time for everything, and every- thing in its time. Do first what presses most, and having determined what is to be done, and how it is to be done, lose no time in doing it. Without this method all is hurry and ronfu^ion. Utile or nothing is accomp'ii^hed, and business is attended to with neither pleasuie nor profit. A polite, affable deportment is recom- mended. Agreeable manners contribute powerfully to a man's success. Take two men, possessing equal advantages in every other respect, but let one be gentlemanly, kind, obliging and conciliating in his man- ners ; the other harsh, rude and disoblig- ing, and the one will become rich, while the other will starve. We are now to consider a very important principle in the business of money-getting, namely— Industry— perseverin", indefati- gable attention to business. Persevering diligence is the Philosopher's stone, which turns everything to gold. Constant, regu- lar, habitual and systematic application to business, must in time, if properly di- rected, produce great results. It must lead to wealth, with the same ceitainty that poverty follows in the train of idle- ness and inattention. It has been truly remarked that he who follows his amuse- ments instead of his business, will, in a short time, have no business to follow. The art of money-saviuK is an important part of the art of money-getting. Without frugality no one can become lich ; with it, few would be poor. Those who consume as fast as they produce, are on the road to ruin. As most of the poverty we meet with grows out of idleness and extrava- gance, so most large fortunes have been the result of habitual industry and frugali- ty. The practice of economy is as neces- sary in the expenditure of time as of money. They say if "we take care of the pence the pounds will take care of them- selves." So, if we take care of the minutes, the days will take care of them- selves. The acquisition of wealth demands as much sell-denial, and as many sacrifices of present gratification, as the practice of virtue itself. Vice and poverty proceed, in some degree, from the same sources, namely— the disposition to sacrifice the futureto the present ; the inability to fore- go a small present pleasure for great future advantages. Men fail oi fortune in this world, as they iail of happiness in the world to come, simply because they are un- willing to deny themselves momentary en- joyments for the sake of permanent future happiness. Wvery large city is filled with persons, who, in order to support the appearance of wealth, constantly live beyond their in- come, and make up the deficiency by contracting debts which are never paid. Others, there are, tbe mere drones of so- ciety, who pass their days in idleness, and subsist by pirating on the hives of the in- dustrious. Many who run a short-lived career of splendid beggary, could they be! but persuaded to adopt a system of rigid i economy for a few years, might pass the remainder of their days in affluence. But no I They mn^t keep up appearances, thev must live like other folks. Their debts accumulate ; their credit fails; they are harassed by duns, and be- sieged by constables and sherifl's. In this extremity, as a last resort, they submit to a shameful dependence, or engage in crim- inal practices, which entail hopeless wretchedness and infamy on themselves and families. Stick to the business to which you are regularly employed. Let speculators make thousands in a year or a day; mind your own regular trade, never turning from it to the right hand or to the left. If you are a merchant, a professional man, or a me- chanic, never buy lots or stocks, unless you have surplus money which you wish to invest. Your own business you under- stand as well as other men ; but other peo- ple's business you do not understand. Let your business be some one which is useful to the community. All such occu- pations possess the elements of profit in themselves. To Those who Wbitb for thb Press.— It would be a great favor to editors and printers should those who write for the press observe the following rules. They are reasonable, and our correspondents will regard them as such : — 1. Write with black ink on white paper, wide ruled. 2. Make the pages small, one-fourth that of a foolscap sheet. 3. Leave the second page of each sheet blank. 4. Give to the written page an ample margin ali^ abound. 5. Number the pages in the order of their succession, (i. Write in a plain bold hand, with less respect to beauty. 7. Use no ab- breviations which are noc to appear in print. 8. Punctuate the manuscript as it should be printed. 9. For italics under- score one line ; for small capitals two ; for Icapitals three. 10. Never interline without the caret to show its place. 11. Take special pains with every letter in proper names. 12. Review every word to be sure that none is illegible. IS. Pnt directions to the printer at the nead of the first page. 14 Never write a private letter to the editor on the prin- ter's copy, but always on a separate sheet. Habits of a Man of Business.— A sa- cred regard to the principles of justice forms the basis of every transaction, and regulates the conduct of the upright man of business. He is strict in keeping his engagements. Does nothing carelessly or in a hurry. Employs no one to do what he can easily do himself. Keeps everything in its proper place. Leaves nothing undone that ought to be done, and which circumstances permit him to do. Keeps his designs and business from the view of others Is prompt and decisive with his custo- mers, and does not overtrade his capital. Prefers short credits to long ones ; and cash to credit at all times, either in buying or selling ; and t-mall profits in credit cases, with little risk to the chance of better gains with more hazard. He is clear and explicit in all his bar- gains. Leaves nothing of consequence to mem- ory which he can and ought to commit to writing. Keeps copies of all his important letters which he sends away, and has every letter, invoice, Ac, relating to his business, ti- tled, classed, and put away. Never sufl'ers his desk to be confused by many papers lying upon it. Is always at the head of his business, well knowing that if he leaves it it will leave him. Holds it as a maxim that he whose cred- it is suspected is not one to be trusted. PUBLIC LANDS. 79 Is constantly examining his books, and sees throueh his whole affairs as far as care and attention will enable him. Balances regularly at stated times, and then makes out and transmits all his ac- counts current to his customers, both at home and abroad. Avoids as much as possible all sorts of accommodation in money matters and law- suits where there is the least hazard. He is economical in his expenditure, al- ways living within his income. Keeps a memorandum book in his pocfe- et, in which he notes every particular rela- tive to appointments, addresses and petty cash matters. Is cautious how he becomes surety for any person ; and is generous when urged by motives of humanity. Let a man act strictly to these habits; when once begun they will be easy to con- tinue—ever remembering that he hath no profits by his pains whom Providence doth not prosper — and success will attend his efforts. Take pleasure in your business, and it will become your recreation. Hope for the best, think for the worst, and bear whatever happens. Cash and Credit.— If you would get rich don'c deal in bill books. Credit is the "tempter in a new shape." Buy goods on trust and you will buy a thousand articles that Cash would never have dreamed of. A shilling in the hand looks larger than ten shillings seen through the perspective of a three months bill. Cash is practical, while Credit takes horribly to taste and romance. Let Cash buy a dinner, and you will have beef-steak flanked with onions. Send Credit to market, and he will return with eight pair of woodcocks and a peck of mush- rooms. Credit believes in diamond pins and champagne suppers. Cash is more easily satisfied. Give him three meals a day, and he don't care much if two of them them are made up of roa^'ted potatoes and a little dirty salt. Cash is a good adviser, while credit is a good fellow to be on visit- ing terms with. If yon want double chins and contentment, do business with Cash. HOW TO SECURE THE PUBLIC LANDS.

CLINE. 109 Tie fforM is CMllenpi to Exce An Infallible remedy for Headache, Neuralgia, Toothache, Earache, Ague in the Face, Cronp, Diptheria, Sore Throat, Colds, Coughs, Diarrhcea, Dysentery, Pains in the Stomach, Side or Back, Rheumatism, Painters' Colic, Chilblains, Corns, Burns, &c.,&c. This Exterminator is truly great for all kinds of wounds on man or beast ; and, in fact, for the speedy cure of any pains which the human family is subject to. The numerous cures that are daily performed by the use of the Vegetable Exter- minator are sufBcient evidences of its super-excellent virtues; furthermore, this preparation does not contain any poisonous, mineral or deleterious drugs. This med- icine has been before the public for the last four years, and has won for itself a name that speaks mightier than words, and has proved itself to be the greatest remedy brought before an afflicted race for the speedy and safe cure of the above complaints. The rapid sale has more than trebly met the manufacturer's expectations. Every bot- tle sold is sure to sell more. It has cured thousands, and is destined to cure hundreds of thousands more. The most incredulous have to acknowledge its great worth, and the greatest unbelievers are converted after one trial. Therefore, I would say to those who are afflicted, not to delay, for delays are dangerous. Only 25 and 50 cents per bottle. The largest bottles are the cheapest, as they con tain nearly three times as much as the smaller ones. The money will be cheerfully refunded in all cases where satisfaction is not given. TRY IT! TRY IT! TRY IT! It never fails ! All it wants is one fair trial to be appreciated. N. B.— Agents of good character wanted to vend the above named Medicine, to whom strong inducements and permanent employment will be offered. Prepared aud sold by Dr. P, Cline, Utica, N. T., whe re all orders must be ad dressed ; and by all Druggists throughout the United States and Canada. Marsh, Dillaye & Co., Wholesale Agents, Syracuse, N. Y. C£>i:^S'S VE&£TA3LX: HAZB. RESTORATIVS. For Preserving, Restoring and Beautifying the Hair. Is a combination of the active virtues of vegetables. This astonishing and unequaled preparation turns the hair back to its original health, lustre, softness and beauty, removes at once all dandruff from the scalp, and all unpleasant itching, and hence creates a perfectly healthy state of the sca^p by act- ing as a stimulant and tonic to the organs necessary to supply coloring matter to the hair. It also prevents the hair from becoming unhealthy and falling off, and brings it out when it is gone by resuscitating the organs necessary to supply nutriment and health to it. This preparation contains no unhealthy drugs, it does not color the hair, but acts upon the secretions and secretive organs so as to supply the former with the necessary coloring matter, and upon the latter so as to completely restore their im- paired or lost functions.

All kinda of Jobbing and Machine Work done to order, in superior style. Is not a ball governor, nor ie it slow and sluirgish, like all ball governors; but it is very sensitive, and will open or close the governor valve in an instant of time, so that an engine running with all the machinery it can drive, may have all that machinery thro*n instantly ofT, and the governor will as instantly close the valve so that the en- cine will not change its speed at all, and no matttr how sudden or often machinery is thrown on or off, the engine will ke* p the same rate of f peed constantly. It is in extensive use on engines from 5 to 700 horse power. Send for circular with cut, des- cription and certificates from those using them. Acts upon the same principle, and will regulate accurately the speed of water power machinery by opening or closing the gate to the water wheel, allowing only just water enough to pass to keep the wneel oq the same rate of sooed. It is the only real "Water Qovemor in existence, and is a late invention. Both the 'Water ■•Joveruor and Steam Governor may be set iu an instant to run machinery at any desired rale of speed. THE ENGINE LATHES Bu'lt at these Works, are exceedingly accurate, and will cut a screw from three to 160 ttueads to tbe inch.

The Oswego and Syracuse Hailroadp thirty-five miles in length,— running between Oswego and Syracuse— is now one of the most " live" institutions in the State. During the past few years the Company has been engaged at excavating the bed of the river, at Oswego. When completed, (probably early the coming season) the company will have added much to the harbor room of Oswego, and will have a long line of dock, for the loading and unloading of vessels directly into or from the company's cars or warehouses. Besides this impor- tant improvement, the company have just erected a spa- cious brick Passenger Depot, furnished throughout in an elegant style, and a large stone Frelgbt House on Utica street, near the site of the old Depot, now torn down. A still further improvement, and one likely to add largely to the commercial interests of Oswego, will be made early the coming season, arrangements having been made with the Syracuse, Binghamtou and New York Railroad and the Erie Railroad by which a third rail will be laid between Oswego and Syracuse, thus making a broad guage road in addition to the present narrow guage. — Under the new arrangement, Passenger and Freight trains will be made up at Oswego, which will run direct to Jersey City, opposite New York. The new line is des- tined to be a favorite one with the public, and we hope may prove profitable to the company. See company's card, page 175. FULTON ADVERTISERS.

The Trustees have been very fortunate in securing the ser- vices of N. B. Smith, A. M., as Principal, and of several other accomplished teach- ers as assistants, under whose combined tuition and instruction the student can hardly fail of making a rapid improve- ment. The convenience of location, and gene- ral moral tone of the Inhabitants of Pulas- ki, together with the very moderate ex- penses necessarily iocurred, will recom- mend this Institution to the parent who desires to educate his son or daughter in the right way. It is a home institution, and ae such, ought to be liberally patron- ized by the citizens of Oswego County. See advertisement, page 121. OSWEGO COUNTY ALMANAC. 217 JULY. AUGUST. SEPTEMBER.
