Itar We are requested to mention that
the illumination of the new Store which did
not come cam: Saturday evening last, on ac
count of a failwe
I to procure lamps enough
for the occasion, will take place on Friday
evening, January 25th 1856.
or A letter from Alexandria_ states that ,
the Egyptian government has recently put
into operation the decision relative to the
abolition of Slaveri. Not only kit no longer
allowed to sell slaVes in Egypt, but all those
in the hands of priVate individuals were in
formed that ,they ,were free.
The condition of the farmers of Sus
queharina'Op unty has greatly improved with
in a few years past. The'soil they cultivate,
though' not the richest, is , naturally good,being
I.
unsurpassed for grazing• and dairy purposes,
and Producing fair i crops of grain. 'Their but
ter and 'cheese takt premiums at our State
Fairs, and are becoming knewn and prized
in the cities. TII4 railroads aford -thorn fa
cilities for reaching market, greatly superior
to_those they fornierly gpssessed. And with
gocCde crops, high prices and a convenient
cash market, no wonder almost every farm
shows more or lesssigns of recent Improve
ments. The field, are better cultivated and
fenced, the dwellings improved in appearance
and surroundings, aid the barns' and other
farm buildings increased in numbers and con
venience.
When we add that they, for the most part,
provide good schools for their children4which
are found more on r lesS, on most farms,) and
take and read the' Independent Republican,
outiiiiders will readily believe that our lot is
cast amid a prosperous and intelligent com
munity. ' If there c are any—as-we incline to
`believe there arej—w.ho, with' means •suffie
ient, have neglected either to provide pleas
ant and comfortable homes, surrounded with
trees and shrubbery, for their families o r
barns and sheds for sheltering their stock,.
with water alway4easily accessible—or good
school houses, school books, and teachers
for their children-or the REPUBLICAN and
one, or' more good' city papers for the'amuse
ment and improvement of the family circle,
we would suggestithat delays are dangerous,
and the mistake should be remedied as soon
as possible.
'.- or When Henry M. Fuller was elected
Representative of the Luzerne District over
that prince of d'Oughfaces;4,H. B. Wright, we
supposed he was elected as an anti-Nebraska
man. - He certainly has hadlthe reputation
of being an opponent ofslaveryLe, :tension, here
tofore, although before Coneess assembled
we heard it intimated that h i e -would prove
false to Free. Soil principlek His course
while the House has been trynig to effect an
organization, has destroyed all our confidence
in him as a Free Sailer. Prompt action is
nor required of the House, and for that, IM
mediate organization is necessa4. Mr. Ful.' 1
ler in_ our opinion has it in , his !power to elect
1
Banks Speaker whenever he Ifhooses. But
instead of doing this his duty, is we conceive,
I • I
to - his constituents and his oven professions,
be is found actin in concert w`th the South;
ern Know Notlungs, men 1,,. would vote
for Richardson sooner thA: or Banks, and
some of whom' a4nally did vote for Richard-,
•, -
son before voting for Fuller. i ,Nobody be
lieves that these South Ameri6ens would ev
,er vote for a Speaker whom thei'deemed in
imical to the. Slavery inter ts. . The infer
ence, in the easel of Mr. F ller, is plain.—
We are very 'sorry, for his defection nfoir

tee sometime reth us because of errors that
appear. in our, co lumns . • That such errors
occur ""' tie true j'tis pity, and pity 'tis 'tis

existence. Sometimes tin. pfinters get heist

from age or ov rwork. Perhaps the com
positor, in cor
, ting the type, again inserts
the wrong letter, or puts -it in the wrong
place, and thus makes " confusion worse con;
founded." At ` ll events, from some cause
, or other, the raiStakes are there too often.—
' Thus a torrespoedent writes us that he sent
to the two Monirme papers a notice in which
occurred the mine of Mr. Bnck, and one pa

he thinks a third would have made it Maple,

CHLOROTOR TN TIM CAR.S.—The Ilion,
Herkimer county, N. Y., Independent, gives
an account of the robbery, by the aid of chlo
rofortn, of Mrs. David .Wright, of Toronto.
while on the Hudson River Railroad. It was
accomplished by a dark-eyed, well dressed,
genteel looking lady, who, when Mrs. W.
complained ofa pain in the head, said, "Ohl
I have some Cologne with te, let me, put a
little on your temples, it will doubtless relieve
you !" A poste munnaie,
containing Consid
erable money ; her ticket, baggage cheek, and
breast pin, were all taken ; and the robber, by
means of the!,ehedr., also stole the baggage.
The parties hed traveled together from Bal
timore, and i the robbery took place near
Poughkeepsie'. Mrs. Wright, who is lady
in high social standing, and the wife of , a man
of property, fasts so sensitive, that instead of
giving notice of her moneyless ()audition, ate
nothing for t!tt. days, fearful, doubtless, of
being considered an impostor ' as instances or
this kind

ORIGIN OF OLTIt DECIMAL CEI:RENCY.-4
letter has been discovered, recently, this
country, from a venerable g.ntleman who
came fram Wales Over fifty years since. In
NoVeinber, 1.805, he became acquainted With
Mr. Christian Heiss, grandfather of John

one years of age, and had in his youth - been
wagon-master through the whole Rev i dlution
in Washington's army, or it,„'inay be the
Pennsylvania live, which formed a portion - of
it. On:one such occasion, while in ottyer
satiOrt; it wits remarked how much better - the
Americans managed their currency than oth

Mr. Heisis immediately replied that it was
so, , and that the author or 'inventor Was the
Rev. Samuel Jones, D. D., of Lower Dub
