INCIDENTS OF THE JOURNEY. How we got to Richland station we need not describe, since we were quickly carried thither in the comfortable cars of the New York Cen- tral and Watertown and Rome railroads. But at this point we began to realize that ~‘Jor- dan’s a hard road to travel.”’ The distance to the town line of Redfield and Boylston, we were assured was twenty-one miles, and that ever a road none of the best. Hon. Mr. Hoard, M. C., of Jefferson county, sel with portentous looking book on the ctof meteorology, joined us here, but ac- tuatiy deserted the party on account of a threatened rain soon afterwards, and probably ut is chuckling at the -thought li!’ A careful study county failed to reveal at this n that he is t to be James Hadley” and «Mr. Sanger. prominent persons in connection with the moon-stene. ‘But the map is an old one,”’ we said, and we received present information from a respectable farmer that he knew Mr. Hadley—*-Why, Hadley lives half or three «aarters of a mile from Wright's tavern, on the town line between Boylston and Redfield.”” This tallied well with the published reports of the (swego Palladium in regard to the locali- ty. Hiring conveyances here, the whole party still further increased by the addition of a sec- ond newspaper man, proceeded four miles to the village of Orwell. Now be it known that Orwell boasts of no hotel with accommodations for man and beast. An early breakfast had sharpened our appetites, and something was necessary to be dune. After various inquiries we discovered that the entire resources of the piece consisted of eggs and pepper-sauce. It is presumed that Shanghais are abundant; at all events, the party a some eight indly boiled for us by dozen eggs, which were the proprietor of a “‘store.”’ These were de- voured incontinently, partly in the solidified and partly in the liquid form. and it is proba- ble that standing around a dry-goode box in the street, which served fora table, such an- ether scene as that band of “egg men’? pre- sented, was never before witnessed at Orwell Had Frank Leslie's reporter.

Resolved, 34, That such conduct undermines all confidence ia the Pres ductive of great evil to society xs well as pecu- niary loss to the Press i Pooleed. Ath, That the editor of the Oswego Palladium, by his conduct in relation to this matter, has forfeited the respect and confidence of the public. and should hereafter be held by his editorial brethern as below the standard of honor and resp attach to the Press. Resolred, That ignorance can be no excuse. inasmuch as the editor of the Palladium, pub- lished to the world that he hed received speci- mens of the meteor, and thereby gave the en- dorsement of # hitherto respectable journal in atters of fact, to the monstrous hoax and gratuitous lie he has perpetrated. These resolutions were adopted with but one dissenting voice. Dr. Phelps said he thought the hoax had given the railroads a benefit and it would in- crease the circulation of other and respectable journals. He therefore voted “No.” The Chairman—The chair is of opinion that the doctor is implicated.
