Taxes paid on the days therein named will be met with an abatement of five per cent., while those not paid will, with five per cent, udded, be placed in the hands of a con stable for prompt collection. It will be the interest of tax-payers to remember this. Those residing in Stroud.sburg should pay their taxes on or before the 27th iustaut. An Iron Ore Mine in Monroe County. It is reported that iron ore has been found just below the point of rocks at Delaware Water Gap, and within a few rods of the Northampton County line. It is on land bought of Mr. Singmaster, last winter, for bark and wood. It is at the base 6f the mountain and very con venient to the railroad. The owners have liad specimens examined, and are led to believe that the ore is of superior quality and of great abundance. If all thi3 proves Teally so it will be a better hit for the owners than bark or wood, and a great .advantage to the neighborhood. Congress, Kept steadily at w'Srk on the Reconstruc tion Bill until Saturday last, when the bill, having been modified by a committee of conference to suit the views of both branches, was passed by each, and sent to the President, for his approval or rejec tion as the case might bo. It is now aid that the President is at work on the veto, and that it will be sent to Congress to-day or to-morrow. It is sure that the to will be met by a counter veto on the part of Congress, and that that body will then adjourn. We will publish the lie construction Rill in our.next. Maximilian Daad. .News from Mexico, which is fully and officially confirmed Etatea that Maximil ian, after trial by cort-martial, was, in accordance with the sentence of the court, trith several of his adherents, shot on the 19th ult., at Querretero. The news ol his death wag received with profound sen sation, and the act has received merited condemnation wherever it has become known. Prance has suspended diplo ma tie and consular intercourse with Mexi co, in consequence, and it is supposed that other European Courts will 'yllow the example. It does us a world of good to see with what gusto our Democratic cotcmporanes our neighbor of the Democrat among the rest, relish the credit which the ltepubli can Press of the State gives their candi- date for Judge of the Supreme Court, or ability, gentlemanly deportment, and all that sort of thing. . They are io per fect ecstacy over it, and matters look as if i his liberality on the part of the ltepub ican Press wa3 to comprise their whole stock in trade during the campaign. They are so little apt to do justice to an opponent themselves, that they can hardly see how others can do it, and are lite rally stunned when they hear. .a candi date of their party spoken of in decent terms. Hut such is the practice of De pnblicans based upon the positive demands of Republicanism; and we are so used to it, that words employed in speaking well of a Democrat, if the truth will warrant it, roll from our lips as readily and easily as the rain rolls from a house roof in thunder shower. In point of capacity there is really no difference between Judjre Sharswood and Judce Williams Both are smart men, legally and intel lectually. We do not know that there is a difference of a straw's weight between their integrity. Neither of them woul wilfully commit a wrong. Doth are good lawyers, and both leading men in the Presbyterian Church elders we think So that in all that constitute thelawyerand man we look upon the one as the full peer of the other. Hut here the comparison ends. In political sentiment Judge Wil Hams is as far ahead of his competitor in all that constitutes the Statesmen and the Judge required by the emergency in which the Democracy North and South placed the country, as is the heavens above the earth. It is cot Judge Sharswood per sonally that the Republican party is called upon to h"ht in the campaign nor a a w Judge Sharswood merely judicially but Judge Sharswood politically and Demo cratically as agjiinst reconstruction on firm, lasting, and uncouivocal basis. The ' V- a Republican party never wars agaiust men butagainst principles; and herein liestl ie difference between it and the Democracy that the latter has only to know that man is opposed to its principles to induce them to hurl their loudest and most vin dictive anathemas against him personally If would be well if th:3 could be amended on the part of .the Democracy, but the world moves not in that direction, and we can hardly expect it. The progress the campain will enlighten the Democracy sorscwhat as to why the Republican press can be particularly charitable toward George Sharswood. In the meantime they can follow the bent of their inclina tions to denounce Judge Williams, to their hearts' cortfent. The Murdered Man. Coroner Storm, in a note to the editor of the Democrat, makes tho following corrections in tho report of the jury who sat upon the body of the unknown man found dead in Paradise township last week, a notice of which appeared iu this paper. He says: " After I got home, the next day after being at your office, I did not like the manner in which the murdered man was buried. I took three of the jurors with ine, aud had the remains of the man taken up and brought to the Paradise Valley graveyard, and buried him there. On close examination we found that the ju rors were mistaken as to the clothing the man had on. 1 1 is coat is a small figured cassimere, or tweed, and his vest, I think is silk velvet. His boots are fine kip in stead of calfskin. You will please make these corrections iu your next issue. " It was late in the day when I got word that the body of the man was dis covered, and by the time that I got the jury together aud ready to proceed with the inquest it was dark, which will ao count for the errors." ' &The Accident Insurance business, in this section of country, under the Agency of James Carr, jr., Ksq., is grow ing quite rapidly, but not so fast as it should, in view of its importance to every man, woman and child among us. - Quite a number of our citizens have thrown this comparative safeguard around them; but how few of the many, whoso sufferin" from accident we have recently announc ed, are of the number. Those most lia ble to accident are least ot all able to stand the loss of time and charges inci dent thereto, and should of all odiets be most prompt to avail themselves of the benefitof insurance. A few moments spent with Mr. Carr, who is perfectly reliable, and a dollar or two invested, would save much of the suffering attendant upon an accident, and render its pecuniary burden altogether easy to be borne. - In 46 days prior to the first of July, nearly 10,000 immigrants arrived at Co lumbus, Ohio.

Ruffianism. Our. town and neighborhood, unless matters mend a little, will soon build up a name for ruffianism, which, even Scran- ton, in all its gloryof that kind, might envy. ' On Tuesday afternoon as Mr. William" Cress, of Stroud township, was returning to- his home from his harvest field, with two of his hands, he was ect upon by a couple c -..n: . , oi ruuians auu uiusi barbarously and shamefully beaten.

On Tuesday evening while Oliver Stone and Robert Roys were sitting in front ol the store of the latter, a colored man, of some notoriety iu these parts, named Lo renzo Haines, came up and commenced abusing the former, and, after some words, made an assault upon him. In the en dcavor to defend himself Mr. Stone's foot caught' under the doorstep, dislocating his ankle, and placing him completely hors du combat. While in this prcdica uierrt Haines pitched on to him, and would probably have beaten him to death but or the opportune inference o a vy stander. Haines then took after the gen- tlcman who had interfered, when Mr. Stone was taken into Mr. Royss store, and afterwards to his home, where 'his ankle was properly dressed by Dr. Rid lack. Haines afterwards returned to the front of the store, where he soon after made an assault upon 31 r. John Kalabach, who was quietly passing by, and bit hi cheek badly. After considerable trouble Haines was arrested and lodged in jail The assault udou Mr. Stone crew out of 4 w an old grudge, of some twelve years stand ing, enlivened, probably, by a too free in dulgencc in liquor. - THE jJEIjAVAUE water uap: its fccen cry, its Legends, and its Early His tory. We are indebted to our friend the au thor, L. W. Prodhead, Esq., for several hours of most interesting reading, con tained in a work bearing the above title. The work is neatly bound, elegantly prin ted, splendidly illustrated by Photographs and cannot but prove a neat and welcome companion to all in the hour of liesure. The historical and descriptive portions of the work are tersely written; and, where point is intended, piquancy flows in as flippantly as rush the waters over the rapids described.

Every one who desire to possess a good thing indeed, should so cure a conv of the book. The anncaranco of a i . larger work on the same subject is insinuated in the preface of the present volume.

We take occasion to say this much iu advance when the canvass is ou ly beginning, that cur readers may un derstand us as being un Jcr no election ex citement, and writing solely from our de votion to National principles. The above espressos the true idea. Any man uho. during a period oi great peril lo the national life, could or would not sacrifice mere opinion Jor its sajtty, IS NOT KIT TO Y.Y. TRUSTED. Judge Sharswood did what hecould to embarrass the national credit at a time when it was essential to the natioual safety that the confidence of financiers should be strong in its favor. Tor thus acting, he is not fit to Lc trusted. The Doylctioirn Democrat , which knows nothing at all about Judge Wil liams, of Pittsburg, make! this gentle manly rcfereucc to his position and char acter : "Judge Williams, the Radical nominee for Supreme Judjie, is at preseut an As sociate Judge of Allegheny count-. lie is a Connecticut Yankee, like Thad.

The Pltttlury Dust the principal Dem ocratic journal of Western Pennsylvania which knows all about Judcre Williams, refers to him as follows : "The nomination of Hon. Henry W. Williams as a candidate for Judge of the Supreme Court is a good one. He was the best man named amon the candi dates before the Republican Convention, and possesses legal and moral qualifica tions for the responsible position to which he has been nominated."

The deceased in early life took an active part in Irish politics, as one of the leaders of the "Young Ireland Party," and was banished by the Pritish Government for treason. Escaping, he reached the Uni ted States, where' he was warmly welcomed by his countrymen, lie was subsequent ly known as a lawyer, lecturer and editor and when the rebellion broke out he com manded the famous Irish Prigade, which was conspicuous in nearly all the campaigns of the army of tho Potomac. He had great influenco-over his men, and possessed the "faculty of stirring them to the highest pitch of enthusiasm at the most critical time in tho conflict. He was in the 44th year of his age.

A Mr George McClellan keeps hotel near Gettysburg, and it is said that the coincidence of his name with that of a gen eral who once commanded the army of the Potomac, has led many Euglish tourists to write home that "the iugratitude of the Republic has doomed its chieftain to keep a village tavern on the very field of fame." The best of the joke is that Mr.x McClellan is a strong Republican, and does not feel at all flattered' by being; mistaken for his namesake.

A CARD FEOil THE American Watch Company CF WALTHAM, MASS. Thi3 Company begs leave to inform the public tint they commenced operations in 18o0, and their factory now covers four acres of ground, and has cost more than a million dollar, atul employs over 700 operatives. They produce 75,0U0 Watches a year, and make auJ sell not less than one-half of all the watches sold in the United States. The difference between their manufacture and the European, is briefly this: European Watches are made almost entirely by hand, and the result is of necessity a lack of that uniformity, which is indispensable to correct time-keeping. Both the eye and the hand of the most skillful operative must vary. But it is a fact that, except watches of tho higher grades, European watches are the product of the cheapest lalor of Switzerland, and the result is the worthless Ancres, Lc pir.es and so called Fatent Levers which co.t more in attempted, repairs, than their origiual price. Common workmen, bnrs and women, buy the rough separate parts of these watches from various factories, polish and put them together, and take them to the nearest watch merchant, who stamps and engraves them with any name or brand that may be ordered. HOW AMERICAN WATMES ARE MADE. The American Waltham Watch is made by no such uncertain process and by no, such incompetent workmen. All the Com pany's operations, lVom the reception of the raw materials to the completion of iha Watch, are carried on under one roof, and under one skillful aYul competent direction. But the great distinguishing feature of their Watches, is the fact that their several parts are all made by the finest, the most perfect and delicate machinery ever brought to the aid of human industry. Every one of the mere than a hundred parts of every watch is made by a machine that infallibly re produces every succeeding part with the most unvarying accuracy. It was otdy ne- cessary to make one perfect watch of any particular style and then to adjust tlie hun dred machines necessary to reproduce every part of that watch, and it follows that every succeeding watch must be like it. The Conpany respectfully submit their watches on their merits only. They claim A BETTER ARTICLE FOR THE I0XEY by their improved mechanical processes than can be made under the old-fashioned handi craft system. They manufacture watches of every grade, from a good, low priced, and substatiti-.larticle, in solid silver, hunting -cases, to the finest chronometer; and also ladies' watches in plain gold or tho finest enameled and jeweled cases; but the mdis-' pensable requisite of all their watches is that ihey shall be GOOD TIMEKEEPERS. It should be remembered that, except their sin gle lowest grade named "Home Watch Company, Boston," ALL WATCHES made by" theia ARE FULLY TOREOTJ) by a ppecial certificate, nnd this warrantee is good at all times against the Company or its agents. n onni . s jb a v i letox, lSia IBroatluay, New York.
