PKA< K. —"There are certain places
where politic should not lie allowed to
enter,' - -ays Mrs. Grundy, "and tic
home or iocal department of a country
newspaper is one them." You an
right, old woman, hut you 11 forgive
us "just this once." As locals are scarce,
our thoughts naturally w >:i ler over
the great political contest just closed.
We are reminded of the criminations
and recriminations, the irritants and
counter-irritants math use of by the
parties respectively buttling for the
mastery; the vituperation and lung
heaped upon opposing candidates, and
the dire calamities that were -ure to be
brought upon our beloved country in
the event of the triumph of either par
ty ! How could the electors choose?
Seymour and Biair were to bring War
and Desolation; Brant and Colfax,
jVece and Tranquility. After five
years of sanquinary strife, such a- the
world never before beheld, brought
about, too, by a radical id'-a peculiar to
our saction of this country, the people
of the whole land naturally yearned
for peace. Tin-the Radicals pr mi-ed
tIK tn in wholesale abundance. The
el foe l was to he in -lantaneou- From
the moment the electric wires (lashed
the intelligence of the succes.- of their
candidates throughout the length and
breadth of this land, an w era was to
b • dated. Peace was to grow u ( , of a
night like a mu-hroon, or cove r the
land over like the dew of a m.orning,
or its white vving< 1 nc-ciig- r - to
shower it copiously upon the people
a- the manna was showered upon the
hungry Israelites. Hatred, malice, iil
\\ ill and all the had qualith- of our na
ture were to be banished from the heart
of man. This "tickled the fancies" of
tiie timid, while anything short of
this, frightened the children, and
thiew old women in hysterics.
Fids was the campaign earn 1 with
success by the Radicals. But let us
look at the sequel. Seymour and
B air, who, according to Radical teach
ing-, were the -vie iiyms of War and
all the evils that could befall u - a- a
nation, are defeated. Grant :.d Gol
fax, who wi re to bring mduc.rd of
blessings to tii- peopli ; p -;t< and
prosperity not for their day and genera
tion alone but for all time to come, an
elevated to lofty -tation.-, yet the
promi-ed magic effect which their
presence was to bring about is not re
alized. Hunt m nature is the -nine
now as it was before the election. Our
neighbors are as radical as ever, and
<lt light in calling their political oppon
ents ai'the ill names they can find in
the dictionary of slang. The negroes
of Georgia and elsewhere in tie. Smith,
are .-til! arming and -booth g down
their neighbors because tin y are white.
Murder, theft, robbery and ar.-on an
-till abroad in the land. Peace has oof
eome. The oil has not been poured
upon the troubled waters. When will
this people become wise ? When will
pa-sion and prejudice give way to
reason and justice ? Let us all pray—
that we may have Peace.
BARN RI UNI t>. —On last Sunday
evening the barn af Mr. Joseph Fisher,
of Cumberland Valley t p., was entirely
consumed by fire. The barn was a new
one and filled with the summer's crop.
The Saturday before Mr. Fisher bad
made preparations to commence
thre-hing his grain the following Mon
day, when some fiend with the torch
of the incendiary set fire to the build
ing. The scoundrel has been tracked,
and we hope he may be caught and
severely punished. We understand
there was a small insurance on Un
building.
SUDDEN DEATHS.— Mr. John Bow
ers, of Napier township, was found
dead in bis bed last Saturday morning.
He was over seventy years of age.
.Mr. Andrew Horn, an old and high
ly respectable citizen of St Glair town
ship died very - i Idenly one day las',
week. He had been at church, and.
feeling unwell, walked outside the >
building where he expired before any
of his friends inside could come to hi
assistanee.

WLT,D TCKKEVS.— This game is
much more plenty this season than it
ha- been for some year-. Almost eve
ry day we hear of -ume modern Nim
rod bringing home a number of these
bird- as trophies of his skill as a
marksman. The "iocal" had the pleas
ure of helping to stow away the re
main.- of a noble old gobbler, at the
house of a friend, the other day, and lie
can attest to the fact that, to an epicuri
an, a barbarian gobhh r, properly "done
up," is far more delicious than one of
the civilized tribe.
THAT'S So.--when two ladie- meet
in the street, they first talk of their
dix-scs, their neighbors', and their own
virtues, the latest engagements, and
finish off with a grist of common place
talk as long as Trinity church spire.
When two gentlemen meet, they talk
of their aching heads, the virtue.- o.
plain s ida water, "Li; • devilish good
time last night," the -creak- and an
gularities of these lady acquaintances,
the gay walking pictures about town,
horses, dominoes, the merits uf liquor,
ladies, cigars, what's up and -even up.
TKHinm.K Act 'ID EXT. —On Tuesday
morning last a terribleaceidentocourred
on the railroad in the western section
of this <-ity near where tit* road crosses
Fayette street. Three German labor
ers, employees on the road, named
Ogley, Dierand Ditfenoaugh, early in
the morning were walking on the track
on the way to their work, when they
saw a train approaching them. They
stepped Hum to the other track in or
der to let it pas-, when at that moment
the regulating engine of the wharf
came upon them from the opposite di
rection and knocked them down and
ran over the entire party, killing two
of them outright and wounding the
other so badly that he died shortly af
terwards. —< 'nmbcrkuid Md. Tel.

These ports have a foreign oommeree- of $900,-

! which we have the immense internal commerce of
the Empire, radiating from these points, through
its canals and navigable rivers.
The cable being laid, this company propose--

trustworthy means of communication, which must

system, and ber only means now ofcommuuicating
information is by couriers on land, and by steam
