The accounts of the long continued and Moody strikes, with which th e daily papers are filled, suggest the .question, what is all this commotion about? The reasons, assigned by the leaders for these socialistic deadlocks, appear to be insufficient; or else there never was it time in the history of our country in which strikes would not have been in order. The dismissal of an employe, for negli- gence or insolence, is a common occur- rence with any business establishment; and if that period lias arrived when care- less brakom.cn and drunken switchmen must be retained at their posts, on account of being popular with their associates, it is high time that the people understood the facts, and went back to the old fash- ioned .raj of making their \railroad'' trips on foot. We heartily sympathize with any peace- able movement, calculated to improve the position of the working men; but when they allow themselves to become the dupes of foreign Socialists they are only alienat- ing the sympathies of respectable citizens, without which they cannot hope to better their condition. We can conceive of the availability of strikes,, or even war, when a livelihood is' the'Aij.uestioti, at jissue, .but nmidSfc' \the* tumult of the strife, let some better ex- cuse lie heard than the dismissal of a worthless employe. TO OTTE FSIEIDS. This is* the third issue of the ADVERT) SE>,-. We promised you a good local newspaper, and you have now a fair opportunity of judging- whether we have, so far, fulfilled that promise. Wo .think we have. There are many improvements yet t o be made and we want t o make them as quickly as possible. Fo r that reason we desire.to have a social chat with our friends, the public,—take them into our confidence and plan together for the mutual welfare of both. We want everyone, who may chance to read this page, to feel that this conversa tion is personally addressed t o him, and any favor he may be able to confer upon •the ADVERTISER, will b e duly appreciated. 'The AOVEHTI E'l starts with a large cir- culation in Hammond, but that is not enough. W e want it placed in every house in fiossie, jiforristown and Macomb and in as many houses in Alexandria, Gonverneur and Oswegatchie as possi- ble. When this point is reached we will enlarge the paper and make it one of th e best local and general newspapers in this section of the country, containing some thing of interest for everybody. We did not go to the expense of start ing a newspaper to run for a few weeks, or months, and die. Wc intend to make it as permanent an institution as th e dr y good\ njgl grocery stores, and wc respect- fully ask you to help us to put the enter- prise on a solid financial basis, by taking the same.interest in our welfare that: we do in yours, If so both will be mutually benefited. Jf you clmnot always agree with us, just think &iafc i t i s impossible fe>r any two persons t o always see things in the same lightrr-liow much more difficult then must it be' t o fill a newspaper with reuding mat- ter t o isuit thq various tastes of a large community-we simply express our views, and they may be taken for what they are •worth, and allow you the same privilege of expressing yours. If those who have subscribed for th e paper, as well as those t o whom the first numbers have been sent, will please bear in mmd that our expenses are 'heavy, and enclose one (hilar with their address, w e will have a splendid paid-up circulation to start with, and will bo able to improve the AnrtsKU'isisB every issue. Let a \bijj push\ be made. —o»<H4»k-««» ROSSIE, Stray Leases of Local History, Au'noi.K II. In 1810, Mr. Parish sent several men, un- der the superintendence of D. W. Church, to open up a settlement further north. Tliey proceeded up Indian River as far as it was navigable and pitched their tent at a point, near where the village of Rossie now stands. The wife of one of the men pre- pared the evening meal, while the rest of the party busied themselves in making a rude tent, constructed of poles and covered with sails, in which she and her husband slept for the night. The others spread their blankets on a largo flat rook, on which they built a fire, and slept in the open air. The next day was spent in exploring the vicinity. I t must, have presented a roman- tic and formidable appearance. On every side, den.-c, unbroken finest—the constant, roar of falling waters being relieved only by the twitter of a squirrel or the c;cho of their own axes. s The land whs hilly and rooky then as it is now; but the party were instructed to develop Parish's immense farto, and set abou^i tfEWtfjgfuT g6«id -earnest. JPh>y soon tlisco.lv eredthat nature had endowed, the place' with MAUNIl'IOKNT W.ITKK-POWKK, and a mill was at once decided on. I t was completed (luring the winter of 1S1C-1I, and the work of lumbering was vigorously prosecuted. A bridge was constructed the folio wing season. I t was, uo doubt, much inferior to the fine, substantial structure that spans the river now, but still it answer- ed their purposes. It. was during the erec- tion of the bridge that a Durham boat was discovered sunk in the river. I t was load- ed with stone and gave evidence of having been under water for an indefiuate length ol time. An excavation in the J'orm of;* square had pivwou-Oy been discovered on the bank, about the place where Mr. Backus store now stands. Hgslfi' These discoveries pointed to the. occupa- tion of Rossie by the French or English, during the Revolutionary war. I n 1813 A BLAST KUKXAOB was built, at Rossie, by James Howard. This was the lirst furnac e erected in .North, ern Now York. Jtgavo employment to a large number of workmen and was of great benefit to the place. People began to grnvi- tale towards this point and the work of settlement progressed rapidly. In ISIS, as previously stated, the town was organized. I t was named Rossie after the daughter of Mr. Parish. The first 1 town meeting, for the election of officers,, .was. held at the house of Reuben Streeter.j Sept. 16th, 1813, at which Reuben Streeter was elected supervison and &. W. Pike, town clerk.

Will THE LOCAL PAPER DOES, Every year every local paper gives from 500 to 5,000 free lines for the sole benefit of the community in which it is located. No other agency can or will do this. The local editor in pro- portion tq his means does more for his town than an y other ten men, and in all fairness, man with man, he ought to be supported, not because you may hap- pen to like him, or admire his writing, but because a local paper is the best in- vestment a community can make. It may not be brilliant or crowded with more thoughts, hut financially it i s more of a benefit to a community than the preacher o r teacher. Understand us now, we do not mean morally or in- tellectually, but financially,, and jet on the moral question you will find the ma- jority of the local papers ar o on the right side of the question. To-day the editors of local papers do the most work for the least money of any meu.ou earth. Subscribe for your locrfl paper, not as a charity, but as an investment.— David Daoii.
