OCR neighbor of the Democrat has got to
be very exact in business matters of late,
lie alleges that a number of bills were pre
sented by Mr. Sober without being dated.
It U frequently the case that bills are pre
sented without date, as the orders issued
by the Commissioners for the amount
of such bills are held as vouchers.
Now as our neighbor has gone back as far
as 1863. to prove a record for the Democra
tic Commissioners, we ask him to explain
how the following orders, issued in 1865,
were passed by the Democratic board or
"auditors without the signature of any of
the County Commissioners. The orders
we refer to are Xos. 84, 61, 69. 60, 50, 214,
43, 49, 23, 44, 206. 190, 183, 171, 104, 145,
144, 143. 142, 88, 87, 243. 522, 521, 520.
519, 518, 450, 441, 397. 380, 357, 2S5, 271,
209, 200, and why is it that one-third of
the balance of the orders issued in that
vcar only have the signature of one Com
missioner. We call on our neighbor to ex
plain why such highhanded outrages upon
toe tax-payers were perpetrated by a Demo
cratic board of Commissioners and auditors
without letting the public know it. What
evidence is there that these orders were
not granted for printing and attorney's
fees and no account given in the report.
The difference between the Republicans
and Democrats' appears to be, that the for
mer give a full account of all their tran
sactions, which are put on record, while
the latter make no record of their transac
tions and no one is able to find out half
the rascality they have committed.
. ,j
There is another circular needed, which
it would be well for "the Tax-payers' Re
lief Association" to circulate, and explain
bow it was that no vouchers from the con
tractor for building the Court House
were filed, showing what the monies were
paid for in 18G3. It appears by the record
that there were no bills presented at all,
and that orders were issued frcm time to
time without even more than one signa
ture of the Commissioners. As there was
a great deal of dissatisfaction as to the
enormous cost in building the Court
House at that time, and the 'Tax-payers
Relief Association.", has taken the matter
io Land to ventilate the actions of county
officers, we hope they will give us some ex
planation of the transactions of the Board
of Commissioners in 1805, and account
why no bills were iil. d as vouchers so that
the tax-payers could see what the orders
were granted for.

been done by the Democratic Commission
ers from 1805 to this date. We would like
him to explain what became of the two
leaves cut out of the expense book of lbb7,
which is mentioned in the auditor's report
of that year. There was a full board of Dem
ocratic Commissioners, and the tax-pay
ers would like to know what expenses were
charged on those two leaves that are miss
ing, whether they were miscellaneous items
or for printing and attorney fees. A
"card" from Mr. Reitz added to the circu
lar now being circulated, would be a great
relief to the public, explaining how it was
done, and how the money is divided in
cases where accouots are cancelled by cut
tin" out the leaves of the books. This cut-
tine out appears too, in that part of the
book in which certain important financial
transactions ought to appear, but which
hnv no record aovwhere but in the brain
of those who were benefitted by them.
The cards published in the Democrat,
in firrulnra of "the Tax-Dayew' Relief
Association." over the signature ot D. S.
Rietz, it is well known were not written by
himself. He is the willing tool ot oiners
and ready to put his signature any where
in obedience to his masters, Messrs. ticn
holtz cfc Co. We have several advertise
ments written by Mr. Reitz for bridge let
tings, which we publish below to show the
of o'thoffraohv between the
wiuvivuvv - o a -
cards and Mr. Reitz's genuine composi
tion. These we publish verbatim et liUra
turn. The first is for proposals to build a
bridge across Green Briar creek in wash

1874, viz:

It is readily to be seen that the above
does not correspond with the orthography
of the cards published, and that Mr. Reitz
is a willing tool of somebody's, and signs
anything that is presented to him. The
original copies of the above can be seen at
our office. The above should convince
any nm of Mr. Reitz's fitness for office,

The Republican party came into power
in 1801, at which time the citizens of Nor
thumberland county were paying State
taxes to the Slate amounting to nearly
tl6,00i) annually.
. The people had long demanded some
legislation whereby they would be freed
from the burden of heavy taxation foi Slate
purposes, but Democratic financiers could
not see the expediency of such an act,
which would take from ont their indivi
dual coffers, large eums of money, but in
the year 116 the Republican party wade
that revision which the people bad o long
demanded and the act repealing tlit taxing
real estate was passed, and the change in
this legislation alone reduced the taxes of
farmers and business men of Northumber

Two years ago when Mr. W. R. F. Wei
mer, now the Democratic candidate for
Prothonotary, was at the bead of a move
ment to contest the electionf the Demo
cratic county Treasurer, and traveled thro'
Washington township, to hunt up frauds
which were alleged to have been committed
he was severely denounced by our neigh
bor of the Democrat as a renegade, because
had he succeeded several other Democratic
officers would have been ousted, aoion
thpm Mr. Dill, the Stale Senalor. We
now find Eicbholtz denouncing Mr. Rohr
bach and wants Mr. Weimer elected.
There is considerable inconsistency in this
matter, and looks as though the editor of
tli Democrat didn't care whether the
Democratic officers selected iwo years ago.
would have been ousted or not, and now
favors Mr. Weimer, to reward him for his
trouble in looking alter the Democratic vo
ters of Washington, Jordan and Upper
Mahanoy, to see whether they were honest
or not. It is well known here that the
editor of the Democrat and his Ring, com
posed of Weimer, Dissinger, Reitz and
Ilottenstein, are of the opinion that the
people of the Mahanoys can be gulled into
most anything, and have even boasted that
all that was necessary, was to say it was
Democratic and they would stick to the
ticket, and if they can be brought to the
polls they would vote their ticket, no mat
ter who was on it. We feel contident.
however, that the people in that section of
the county are about as intelligent and as
well aeouai tiled with the candidates who
B
were forced uj-on their ticket, as the people
are anywhere else, and that they will show
them, that they are not as ignorant as these
candidates allege they arc, in other parts
of the county. In other parts of the coun
ty tbey beg for votes, and want to make
the people believe that they will get a uni
ted vote in the Mahanoys, and that will
secure their election. We would not at all be
surprised that these Ring candidates will
be taught a lesson, and that somebody will
get hurt.
We notice that a circular is being distri
buted by Eichholiz's Ring, purporting to
have been issued by the organization
"the Tax-payers' Relief Association,
which contains the same deceptive matter
that was published in the Democrat of two
weeks ago, to which we referred last week
A worse fraud to deceive ll) honest voters
Ku. lwcn ifwuitd bv that party. "The
Tax-pavers' Relief Association" is headed
by such men as Eicbholi. Dissinger, Pur-
dy, Reitz aad ilotienBlein, and is orga
nized to deceive the farmers and laboring
men, which those who are followers will
discover when probably too late to recall
their vote. . It is not the first time circulars
were seut out by these same men previous
to an election to deceive the voters, and
these who were caught before by their false
and deceptive statements, should be care
ful not to ba caught in their meshes and in
aiding Ihein in their nefarious plans to get
into office.
ribly, and that a change coula not mara
things worse, at least for them. AH that
the chairman asked to remedy this was a
'free vote" for the Democracy. If he re
ferred to the 'free voting' by which the
Democrats of Shamokin and ML Carmel, a
few years since, nominated his opponent for
Judge over himself by such excessive 'free
voting,' that three times as many votes
were returned as there were taxpayers, he
is most unfortunate. However we entirely
concur with him, that if the Democrats
could only be indulged in a 'free vote'
without restraint or fear of punishment,
they would smash things generally. The
first speaker introduced was Hon. Kichara
Vaux. Dick, as he is called in Philadelphia
by the boys, is as rampant a Democrat as
... . i i t.t. n
ever..- lie sun wears me ousuy uair buu
beard though more whitened than when he
traveled with the rebel candidate for Vice
President, and if he has a horror of flaunt
ing the 'bloody shirt,' he has at least no
objection to displaying a gold chain and a
pair of bloody red stockings. This may
be. perhaps, one of the symbols he referred
to.and indicates the party or club to which
he and Billy McMullin belong.
Mr. Vaux started out by defining, or
attempting to define, that the word people
simply meant persons entitled to vote, and
came to the conclusion that no one had an
inherent right to vote. This is rather hard
on the Democracy who vote early and vote
often, a dogma, as surprising and unex
pected as the Pope's dogma of infallibility,
and does not at all tally with Mr. Zeigler's
idea of a free vote.
But when were the Democracy ever con
sistent except in the pursuit of office? Mr.
Vaux had hardly warmed up when he
pitched into the chairman for saying that
the banner of Democracy had been 'trailed
in the dust.' He denied that the Demo
cracy had any thing to do with dustordirt,
(his own shirt being unexceptionally clean
for a Democrat.) He did not seem to think
that even the selling out of the Democratic
party to the friends of Greely, at Balti
more, was 'trailing tho flag in the dust,'
though Dan. Voorhces did preach its funer
al sermon, soon after. But the chair
man knew better than that, for he himself
put on sackcloth and ashes, on that melan
cholly occasion and almost swore be would
not support that old abolitionist, but did
at the election, as M'Clure said tbey all
would when whipped into the traces. Mr.
Vaux evidently did not relish the chair
man's unfortunate expression of aree rote
in such a public manner, and affected to
understand him saying aair rote, which
is a grey horse of quite a different color.
Mr. Vaux, in style and character affects
to be somewhat dramatic, and when in this
mood he draws largely upon his imagina
tion for his facta and most of his statements
were fancy sketches. For example he re-
furred to England! as having, like us, only
two parlies, whereas there never are less
than three, tories, liberals and conservatives.
The Chairman next introduced Mr.
Clymer, of Burks. Mr. C. is a gentleman
ot character aud intelligence, and we were
pleased to see our old friend look so well.
Mr. C. comes from good Republican stock,
but Republicanism is a piantof slow growth
in the soil of Berk-. Mr. C. learned that
fact before be went to Congress. Mr.
Clymer was not so wild aud fanciful as
Mr. Vaux. He saw where the shoe pinch-
od. i - " -Mwnom pre
dicament in which the party was placed by
the Erie platform. He knew that more
than oue-half of the intelligent men of the
party repudiated it as wroogand heretical.
aud yet tbey are asked to vote for a plat
form of principles they dom't believe in.
He tried to explain the trouble, but it was
apparent thai he was not satisfied himself
with the result. Tbe difficulty of substituting
and putting the greenbacks into circulation
he confessed was a stumbling block. He
referred to the Ohio election where he had
been ten days, and acknowledged that he
was not surprised but disappointed, fie
also referred to the Mobilier and other
frauds in Congress, bul forgot to say that
Fernando Wood, Sam. "Randalls and other
leading Democrats weredoepest in the mire.
He sooke of the Ku Klux as if it was a
fiction that never had any reality, without
referring to the fact that a number of lead
ing Democratic members of Congress de
nounced it as a villainous organization.
In fact Mr. Clymer stated only one side of
Ihe questions, which must necessarily lead
to erroneous conclusions in tbe minds of
those who do not read both sides for themselves.
The comments of both speakers on the
Judges of Ihe Supreme Court were neither
just or correct, but we have no time or
room to correct them this week, more than
to say that the new judge is one of the
most upright and honest of our judges, and
that his views were sustained by many of
our ablest lawyers of both parlies.
Bul little was said in regard to Pershing
and riolett. and when the latter was refer
red to as making an honest Treasurer, a
smile appeared in the face of a number.
The "mule" Auditor, Mr. Ilottenstein,
in introducing his appeal to the voters by
a pretended report of the county finances,
says: "the following are correct extracts
from the official majority and minority re
ports of the statements of finances of our
county for the year 1874. The majority
report is sanctioned by the Republican
party in nominating Muench and Durham
for re-election. The minority report is
sanctioned by the Democratic party in
nominating Henrie, Reitz and Ilottenstein
for re-election." By the above extract n
looks as though Ilotteostein wanted to de
clare himself the master of tbe Ring, and
that Eichholtz is about to be deprived of
his laurels. Every reader of our county
papers the Democrat and Watsontown
Record included, knows that the majority
report referred to was made out by Mr,
Muench and Mr. Joseph Eisely, as un
compromising" a Democrat as we have in
the county. Had there been anything
wrong, or had they disagreed one or the
other of these two gentlemen opposite to
each other politically, would have exposed
the other. But we find them to agree m
their accounts all through, and their names
subscribed to the report. . When the board
of Auditors met Mr. Ilottenstein got one
of his balky spells, and refused to set with
the board, although earnestly solicited to
do so by influential Democrats. He loiter
ed about the Court House until the ma
jority report was finished, when be object
ed to the report, and proceeded to hire a
clerk to make a report to suit himself.
To gratify him.the Commissioners paid for
publishing both the reports. When they
appeared it was found that he not only had
the accounts of 1874 iu it, but also part of
1875, by which he expected to raise an ex
citement for his re-election. He also de
manded full pay for his services, which he
received, and then presented a bill for extra
clerk hire amounting to about $10 , so that
the county is the loser through advertising
his report and clerk hire of about one hun
dred dollars to gratify his mulish disposi
tion. Now if the merits of the candidates
depend altogether upon these two reports
for a re-election, the election of the whole
Republican ticket is certain.
The yield of tobacco in Lancaster is the
largest and best ever witnesssd. The
product may reach fifty thousand bales, or
twenty million pounds. That county has
taken a deep interest in the growing and
manufacturing of tobacco, as over 400 per

Mr. D. S. Reitz certifies to a statement
of bills, in the Commissioner's office, as
being correct, &c. Since we have a copy
of a bill made out by him for work done at
repairing a bridge, we can scarce con

whether the bills are correct or not. The
following is the bill made out by Mr.
Reitz:

P. Jenny, chief of the geological expedition
to the Black Hills, and assistants, returned
here to-day, having spent five months in
tbe Hills and made quite a thorough exami
nation of the whole country, and mapped
from Belle Fourche to the south fork of the
Cheyennne river. He reports the gold fields
extending forty miles uorth of Harney's
Peak and forty miles wide, and containing
gold in quantities that will pay from
three to five dollars per day to the man,
and that there are bars on numbers of
streams that will pay much more than that,
The water supplies are ample for working
purposes, and a fall sufficient to carry water
from the top of most of the bars and allow
the tailings to be readily disposed of. The
gold is in coarse scales, good, and easily
separated from gravel and Band.
The Professor has with him an ounce of
coarse gold that to men obtained in Spring
Creek with ten hours' labor. An assay of jeet was, and why he did it

necessities of the Democra tic party. Con

tially has he discharged the duties of his
office, that he has earned the undying ha
tred of every thief, and the equally undying
gratitude of every reputable man in New
York.
Two years ago Tammany undertook to
stock bis court with its creatures. The
appointments of clerks and other officials
were distributed among the wards, and
Judge Hackett was notified that he was
expected t remove hi subordinates and
appoint those selected by Tammany. Ho
refused. He wrote a letter to' those making
this insolent demand that it was absolutely
necessary to the proper administration of
tbe law that the courts should be kept free
from political influence ; that his clerks.
etc., were good, reliable, well-qualiuea
men. and he should retain them. This ac
tion, coupled with the fact that years ago,
when Hackett was the Corporation Coun
sel, he stopped the payment of a fraudulent
claim to Kelly, amounting to $20,000, so
annoyed the Boss, that when Hackett, the
other da v. came ud for renomination. he
was defeated, and a tool of Tammauy norni
natcd in his stead. Ihe same sauce was
served to Phelps, also a good officer the
prosecuting attorney.

the chief support, the strength of Tammany
is the rum mills, tbe thieves and those who
make money out of the thieves ; and as

He was slaughtered. John Kelly in the
Democratic Convention, rose and insisted
that he should be renominated. Nay, more

by the convention. He made the nomina

The churches, without exception, have
joined hands, and an effort will be made
such as the world never saw before.
Moody and Sankey will open the ball in
Urooklyn Miller, lsiiss, and a score oi
other well-known revivalists will commence
at the same time, and all the clergy,' with
such laymen as have gift in the, way of

The business of the Christian world,, for
the next four months, will be revival.
They propose to fill the air with religion
to make it the topic of conversation every

Great good will be effected. A syste

rum mills and the gambling hells, crooked
business of all kinds is to be assailed ; in
short, an effort is to be made to elevate the
moral tone of the city at large. Great
good will be accomplished for the churches
and many men outside are in deadly earn

or laborers. It will be a great thing for
New York.
BUSINESS
continues fairly good. Since the .Ohio
election there has been a perceptible im
provement, for the reason that confidence
in the stability of things has been restored.

It will be seen that Mr. Reitz even has

of more money for everybody would greatly
influence the vote in favor of the Demo
cratic rag-baby and secure a majority for
it ; but tho inherent common-sense of the
masses decided otherwise, and Republican
ism, and a gold basis for our paper-money,
is happily successful. The majority for
Haves, the Republican rni' fiw r.nv
ernor, will be about 5000, not varying more
than two or three hundred votes. The
Legislature, which was considered in doubt
for several days, weais tbe same complex
ion, the Republicans having seventeen ma
jority in the house and three or four ma
jority in the Senate. In Iowa the Republi
can majority for Kirkwood for Governor,
will be fully 30,000, with both branches of
the Legislature largely Republican. This
majority was not expected, though the
State was considered safe. Bul Nebraska
has surprised every body by her overwhelm
ing Republican majority, electing all the
State ticket by some 8000 to 10,000 majority.
This majority there would, in proportion
to the population, bo over 100,000 majority
in this State. But we expect here at least a
fourth of this, and there will be no doubt
of it if the people will all go to the polls.
Hon. Frank Hughes, of Potts villc, form
erly chairman of the Democratic State Com
mittee, in a recent speech said : "77te cha
racter of John F. llartravfi or honesty,
integrity and patriotism, cannot be success
fully assailed." This is the confession
forced from the malicious maligners who
so relentlessly persecuted our worthy Gov
ernor in 1872. The people of the Co mmon-
wealth will show their approval of his integ
rity and his adminstration by an old-fashioned
majority on the 2d of November.

Nnow Storm.
Port Jervts, N. Y., October 17. The
first snow storm of the season in this sec

Cochecton, on th6 Erie Railway, growiug
heavier further west. At Susquehanna,
Pa., it was five inches deep. A severe gale
visited this section last night, uprooting
trees and damaging buildings.
XEW JERSEY.
The Democracy on the Rampage.
Jersey City. Oct. 19.
The Democratic primary meeting for
electing delegates of the county and legis
lative convention aud a general committee
for Hudson was held last night, and in
several localities it was exciting.
In the town of Union the contest was be
tween the German element and those
opposed to them, two tickets being in the
field. Over one thousand people were
present at the election from all parts of the
township. The German elements proving
tne 8irutK, b opposition made a rally
aud rushed through the nan, breaking
down the tables, knocking over the judge's
stand and smashing the ballo; box.
Then a general fiiihl commenced, which
spread to the outside amongst tbe mob,
who were unable to gain admittance.
After a time the entire police force where
brought to the scene and attempt to quell
the riot but where powerless.
The fight continued until midnight.
Throughout Union Hall it was reported
that the police bad locked a man up in the
bell tower of the prison, and the infuriated,
drunken mob made a rush for the building
to tear it down, but learning that no airest
had been made desisted from their purpose.
The whole excitement is said to have
originated from a resolution offered in the
board of councilmen last week to abolish
the Bible from the public schools, which
was laid over until to-morrow night. There
were many persons injured in the riot, but
none fatally.
Correspondence.
OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
The reasons why Eichholtz's Ring are
so very anxious for the election of Messrs.
Reitz, Dissinger and Ilottenstein, are easi
ly explained : ReiU as Commissioner ac
cording to the Democratic rule of 1805,
would issue the orders, and Dissinger as
Treasurer would pay them. Wheu the
auditors meet, Ilottenstein would pass the
orders without any further questions.
Should tliere be any objections by any oth
er member of the board, it would be an
easy matter to cut a few leaves out of the
expense book.
We see it staled at the close of a speech
by an inflationist recently before an audi
ence mostly of agriculturists, one of the
them remarked as he stepped from the plat
form down among tbe voters : "General we
Yankees out here are in the habit of taking
a practical view of things, and this one
thing we confess our inability to compre
hend. We cannot see how by adding two
gallons of water to a gallon of milk there
will be any more cheese in it." The orator
of the occasion rapidly passed out of the
crowd.
Tne Republican County Ticket.
In a contest like the present one it is but
natural that most of the public attention
should be absorbed by the State ticket ; but
we are in danger of forgetting, meanwhile,
tbe importance of giving some attention to
our couuty ticket.
The ltepublicaus of this county have an
excellent county ticket, and oue that they
can conscientiously and earnestly support.
The candidates are all good, true honest,
faithful and capable men, and their quali
fications have not, in a single instance,
been called in question.
Where the question of capacity does not
arise, and the fitness of our nominees is
conceded, the political bias of the candi
dates bhould, with Republicans, decide the
question in favor of the Republican candi
dates. If all the candidates on both tickets
were alike capable, the Repnblican nomi
nees should be preferred to their opponents
simply because they are Republicans. We
believe that our candidates are iu every
case equal, and in most cases superior to
the Democratic nominees ; and we fetljus
tifiei, therefore, in appealing to our Repub
lican friends throughout the county to
stand by the ticket earnestly, and to urge
its election.
Senator Chandler, of Michigan, has been
tendered the appointment of Secretary of
the Interior, and has accepted. He took
possession of the interior Department on
Wednesday last. ,
One reason why the Democratic party is
not to be trusted is because it always ap
peals to the lowest passions and prejudices
of the most debased classes of society. We
do not mean tbe poorer classes, because
amongst those are found some of the best
members of societybut the vicious and
lawless, in any condition, either rich or
poor. We find this cropping out in all the
Democratic journals.
The Reading Eagle says that despite the
discouraging outlook of business through

Nearly every manufactory is in operation,
and some are turning out as high as two

the factories are not quite on full time.

New York. Oct. 19, 1875.
POLITICAL.
All hail, Ohiol The dispatches from
that great State, making certain the elec
tion of Hays on an honest, hard-money
platform, gives more satisfaction in New
York than anv piece of news that has
reached us since the taking of Vicksburg,
The majority is small, but it is enough,
The battle was fought on the square issue
of honesty vs. dishonesty, and the vote of
Ohio settles the question. The rag-money
manufacturers are pushed to the wall, the
government will pay ils debts ; inflation,
with repudiation lurking in its shadow, is
dead, and business men breathe more easily.
All honor to the honest men en Ohio. All
honor to the noble Republicans of that no
ble State, who placed themselves between
their country and ruin, and fought so well
the battle upon the result of which the busi
ness of the country depended.
The news was received here, as you may
suppose, with the liveliest satislaction
The decent Democrats were quite as well
pleased as the Republicans, in fact, among
the business men, there was no diversity
of sentiment. All were glad that the rag
baby had "died a bornin,"aud that it got
ils quietus before it got large and strong
euough to do auy harm.
Now let Pennsylvan ia follow suit, and
the question as to which party will elect
the next President, and the principles that
will govern its action, as regards the tiuan
ces of the country is settled.
Speaking of political successes, the
. SITUATION IN THE CITY
ia not only entertaining, but instructive.
John Kelly, a brawling, pot-house, corner-
grocery poli tician, occupies tho place lately
held by Tweed as the head of lammany
and whoever is the head of Tammany con
trols the Democracy of the city.
The best judge the city has ever had is
Recorder Hackett, who for ten years has
been the terror of the dangerous classes.
He has' never allowed politics to come into
his court. Criminals brought before him
on the ticket is his tool, and the humble.
obedient servant of the worst classes in the
city.
And let me say that the throwing over
hoard of Hackett was doue in defiance of
every paper in New York except the Tii-
bune, which is now the only paper in the city
entirely devoted to Democratic Tammany
Kellv wants onlv oue paper, and that is
the 1'ribune.
The moral to all this is : John Kelly
controls Tammanv. Tammany controls
the city, the city controls the State, and
the State has a powerful influence in the
nation. John Kelly as the head of Tam
many, will have, in the event of a Demo
cratic success next year, a control in the
affairs of the nation greater than any other
man in the nation. It behooves the Repub
licans of the country outside to see that no
matter of merely local importance stands
between them aud a Republican success.
I hope my Republican readers in the States
holding elections in November will take
this warning home to themselves, and do
all that is in them to prevent the Democ
racy from capturing those States. More
depends upon their action than they are
aware of.
The Republican conventions of tbe city
renominated Hackett and Phelps for the
positions they are now cccupying, and we
hope to elect them dispite Tammany and
the rum-mills and thieves. Il will be a
bal day for the city and the country if we
do it. All the States should follow Uuio
in a decent condemnation of all that is bad
vile in governmental matters.
A LIFE WELL SPENT.
What a world of time most of us let run
to waste, which, rightly used, would enable
us to become wiser and belter ! This ex
cedent sentiment is at least as old as Con
fucius ; a hundred successive generations of
our aucesters have each, iu turn, indorsed
ils respectablitv. until it has got itself
adopted into a calendar of truths which all
venerate, and pretty much all give the go
by.
Even that division of the tweuty-four
hours of the day by the masonic craft,
which attributes eight hours to acts of wor
ship and benevolence, eight to affairs, and
the remaining eizht to refreshments and
repose, would seem to be, with the vast
majority of persons, more fanciful than
real, and the actual rule would be more
nearly expressed by merging the portion
set apart for gaiety and good works with
that for rest and refreshment, thus giving
two-thirds of each day to the gratification
of merely physical wants and desires. In
deed, 'lis so tauch the fashion, and we are
so well used to dawdle-over our business.
aud run to excesses in our recreations and
pleasures, thai we wonder at the ease with
an exceptional man, like Mr. A. T. Slew
art, carries the great weight of bis business
affairs, and can with difficulty believe that
he still finds time each day to read a por
tion of some Greek author in his original
tongue, and that he still cherishes and
gratifies his taste for art, aud surrounds
himself in his leisure hours with persons
eminent in the various intellectual walks
of life.
All this is introductorv to savins that
last week death took away a well-known
business man of this citv. whose life well
illustrates the attainments possible to any
business man of fair intellectual gifts, and
points the moral of my foregoiug ser mon

I am aware that there is a popular, and
not altoaether unfounded, prejudice against

Even prescriptions are usually written in
. laneuaffe unintelligible to any but tbe
cruggiat. As much secrecy is employed
as in the -preparation of proprietary meui

nared bv a process known only to the
manufacturer render that article less valu
able ? How manv physicians know the
elementary composition of the remedies
which thev employ, some of which have
never been analyzed ? Few practitioners
know how Morphine, Quinine,Podophyllin,
Lentandrin. Pepsin, or Chloroform, are
made, or how nauseous drugs are trans
formed into palatable elixirs ; yet they do
not hesitate to employ them. Is it not in
consistent to use a prescription, the compo

card another preparation simplply because
it is accompanied by a printed, statement
of its properties with direstions for us use?
