THE POTATO DUO'S LAMENT.
nr MAncuno.
I am a little potato bug,
And from the distant west,
I've came to have a tug.
At vegetables I love best.
I have a splendid appetite
For itotato leaves and such.
Thoaxh eating day and night
I never get too ranch.
The farmers all turn out.
The moment we are seen.
With angry cry and shout
And stlcxs and Pails green.
They kill us right and Ittt
with all their might and main.
Bo that we are oft bereft
uf friends we'll never see again.
Our glossy costs protect us not
From cuts and blowa and dashes.
For when the battle waxes hot
We got no end of smashes.
07is bsing our reception in the East,
We th nklt would be best
To adjourn at once the feast
And get back to tbe West.
Piiilad.lthia, Pa., Jane ID. 1876.

The Cahboh advocate now takes the
lead of all dot county papers In Its local news.
Also, that It la highly appreciated by Its large
number of readers. Especially has It proved
itscii anvo to the local interests of Lehlghton
and vicinity for the past few weeks.
We observed a pair of Jackasses. In a car
riage, passlug through tho streets ot Lehlghton,
Thursday evening. At least, their aitemnta at

There la entirely too much ot fast driving-
through the streets of Lehlghton, which makes
It very dangerous for many people, and especi
ally so for the large number of young children
who are dally and hourly to bo found running at
Lai ge, several of whom were nearly run over a
tow days ago. Their escape was most miracu
lous, and should prove a warning against 'all
fast driving in the future.
To mistake a printing office for a hardware
store. Is very Improbable, to aay the least, Yet
such waa the case Tuesday evening, when a
tall, lean bickwuodsman, no doubt Just fresh
from the " rooral deatrlcks," stepped tulana In
quired It we had any good saws he wanted to
purchase one When told tt was a printing
office, he said he Judged it to be a hardware
storo from the different pieces ot machinery In
the loom meaning;, of course, tbe presses, etc
He was glad to lcam the difference, however,
and started up town to find tbe hardware store,
which It Is presnmed he found and then par.
chased tho needed " saw."
-row that a resumption la conceded to take
place at the operators offer, which all know Is a
redaction ou tbe prices paid In 1874. the next to
follow the miners, should be the Ilatlroad Com
panies, by a considerable rod action In tho prices
of fielahfhow charged by them. While report
ing tho conference between the Operators and
Minora, in Haileton, January 11th, 1876, we
heard Mr, Ario Pardee, chairman of the opera
tor da'oaates, promise that the llallroad Com
panies would also bear their portion In tho re
duction by lower freights, and that It was not
Intended to come wholy upon the miners. It
was. In like manner, promised by Mr. b-'ckley B.
Coxe, and one or t vo others. This was a very
fair proposition bat, so far as we have been
able to learn, no reduction of freights has been
mado by the Railroad Companies np to this
time. A low freight tariff is tbe only thing now
needed to again pot in production the furnaces
and rolling mills ot the Lehigh Valley and give
employment to hundreds who are now idle or
working on half-time. By aU moms let freights
be reduced i and, even if the usually heavy divi
dends must suitor theteby, the stockholders
will not complain, because It Is well-known
and be.leved in sound business circles, that the
era of large dividends has passed away and
muxt come down be reduced aa well as labor.
And ao with the necessaries ot lite, rents, c te
st! mast, ot necessity, come to a level with the
wages now paid.
