Daniel B. Hughes. The Hughes family wus an important ' ficit-r intiifi-nrly-clili-iiunlof llicroun- 1 ty. A.H Kforc inUmated in tbeaiS.skctchcB, J the original aetlli-r was proliably Humphrcy Hughes, who purchasittl land of ■ the Wrsl Jersey Society as early as 10S9, ' locating on the Baysitle of tho laiwcr 1 Township. Iwing probably the falherol ' David Hughes, ami tli.-g..al gramlfather 1 of Daniel II. Ilnghcs, the subject of this ' 'kclcli. Uaviil was a shoemaker, luting ! • one of two sons of St. Crispin, who did 1 all shoemaking forMidtllcaml Lowor ' ■ L.wnship. f ine of Thivid Il tghes". ntna children ' was Aaron, tho father of Daniel. He < was apprcnlimi when a boy to Mr- Jcfc ' Mecray to learn tbe carpenter's trade. 1 • He helped build many bouses of that 1 period, and soinq public- ones ; notably. ' ■ tho w-ood work of the present jail, wliicli ' Aaron had another" son' David, who fjutliisl "medicine in Philadelphia with ' the eJder Dr. Kennedy, graWmting in 1 same class. After practicing medicine 1 lor a time in Pennsylvania, he foraook it . and studied for a ITi-sbylerian minister, < In-lng duly onlnined, aflerwiinls laliorlng 1 In Ohio tiil Ms death. A daughter, ' Brulali. married 8>vain lToilmnn. she ' iM-ing long deceasol. Daniel first saw ' the light in 1S16 on the okl To^ii Bank ' t homestead, lie was tbe first born, tlic ' , hard worti of the farm, therefore, falling ' upon lilm. His early education win ' direct oil by those well-known teachers of - Uic time, Matthew Marry. Robert Foster, 1 Jerry Kent, Jas. B. Hughes anil others. Neither the schools or houses of-that ' period were anything to boast of, the ' lildc sky being plainly seen through llie 1 chinks in Hie walls, which were without 1 ceiling or plaster. The sessions of those ■ days began at aunri-c and continued till ' 1 sundown, w ith but a short intermission I , for lunch. Mr. Hughe* speakosrtti trait > of one IraclitT. Mr. Marry, wlio%[is al- ' ways very early at the old school house, < lighting the fires with his own hauls, t The boya often tried to get thcrq before I him t but. even if tlu-y arrived at the whiHil In the gray of "the morning, Mr. i Marcy was there already to begin tho • , leasons of till- day, which were reading, ' writing and arithmetic, no grnmmara or t gengraphirs being pirmittcd then. < Another characteiistlc marked bis rule, c he did not have recourse to corporal " ' punishment as a means of government ; ' hut other methods better ulopted to the purposes of discipline were favorites with 1 him. This was in the old Fishing Creek V school house, hid away among tho red i cedars of that classical region. John Williams was another teacher, ^cros* and 4 exacting, a. splendid penman with his 1 oilier accomplishments. He wrote with 1 a goose quill, ami trounced the hoys < when they didn't cloKly follow his ele- i gun! ehlrogrnpliy. wliicli none of them ' could do. One cold morning in Decern- 1 tier poor old Pedagogue Williams didn't f make hUnpprarpnce at the school. Fifty boys were there waiting for himtucomc, but the morning wore away and still he | did not arrive. An hour after senool time I , a big l»>y came running breathless | among tbe waiting pupils with the infor- ' • million that the bat her hail died the ' luglit' before. Willi a whciop and rush I the thoughtless youngsters made for the t beach where a vessel had recently been 1 wrea ked. Tlio joy of a holiday made | them forget all about the sudden demise : ' of their wiary dd preceptor. Those of them who may now be living are more sober by the nwtllowing influences of of time. I Mr."TTnghrs married Priscilla lAwming in 1830, six children having been born to £ them, Julia, wlm married Silas Matthews: Jane, John Bate; Harriet, Kdward C'umminga ; Emily. Samuel Townsend j F.I ion. deceased, John I tussell , and Learning Jfitnrsrth. Belle Cre»»e. Our week's • suBJect has been for thirty years a member of the M.

Mr. Hughes is a gentleman of genial manners and characteristic re goodnature. He preserves the even tenor _ of a quiet life, tending to put him in the most pleasant relations with his neighbors and fellow eittrrna generally. It Js worth of note that he has nererindulgerl in the tobacco habit, a tact thai may account fur his well preserved appearance. He does not look his age by a down h. yesrs- On Ills improved farm in Cold H Spring Mr. Hughes is now possessor of

All 'but one man became reconciled to the apparently inevitable. I.ient. C<d. A. W. Dwight, ropjmand- *. ; the regitneni, determined if it wt-re - . within the power of man, to prevent the ' . execution. Daniel Bowlcy should not r ; die the death of a felon. - He began by circulating a petition. 1 drawn by himself, among tlic officers of ' 1 ills command, and after securing the eig- ° ; nature of each and every one. presented '! . it to the brigade, division and corps commanders, and with . their endorsement upon the paper started for army ( 1 headquarters. It required considerable persuasion to induce General Meade to sign the pctl- ! tlon, as be had decided to make an ex . ample of a few, hoping thereby to effrc- j ■ tually check desertion in the future. TinGeneral held out for some time, but the , eloquence of the Colonel at last prevailed, [ and he relumed with the n'hme of Geo. ,| G. Meade affixed to the document. -fcjeut.
