Bybon It Is never a very agreeable obligation to bid farewell and separate from friends whom wn have learned to loye and respect for the sake of their characters and works, and yet It is very true that the thought symbolized iy this wotd "mingles with every cup of joy, and shatters the fairest images in fancy's mysterious realm, It whispers from amid summer zephyrs and sighs In the Autumn wind," for " Life hath Its many farewells As It hath sunny hours. And over some are scattered thorns And oyer others flowers." The Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle of this town, have several times found It necessary to sever ties woyen of loye, friendship and association, to say farewell to some of Its honored members, and on such occasions think It proper to give some tangible evidence of the esteem and good will by a special meeting of the friends and members of the Circle, such a meeting being called a falrwell meeting, A meeting of this kind was tendered Rev. Mrs. cook, rror. rranic liarr, and on Wednesday evening last, they were called 'upon by a feeling prompted by amity and benignity to do honor to Rev. W. G. Stlbltz, the late President of the Circle and his excellent wife. As usual they met at the Mecca of the Chaiitauquans In this community the pleasant home ot Dr. and Mrs. W. G. M, Selple to render a well prepared programme, and haye a pleasant time together. The programme consisted principally of seyen tableaus interspersed Willi music of a very choice character rendered by Miss Kistler. the talented music teacher f town, and Miss Kate Adams, of Harrlshurg, another fine performer on the piano ; and 9ong by the accomplished Miss Mertz, of Phlla delphla. The tableaus were mostly serio-comic, and prodnced much merriment and tre- quent outbursts of laughter by the grotesque combination of the sublime andredtculous, Rev. .1. L. Freeman on behalf of the Circle presented Rev, and Mrs. Stiblt with yery handsome copies of the works of Milton and Tennyson. Rev. Stlbltz re plied in a very appropriate address thank' Ing the circle for the honor done him and expressing his appreciation ot the work don by the Circle as an educational agency Prof. Roberts the Vice President, who presided during the evening, was railed on and responded in a short address voicing the feeling of the Circle at the pleasure of having had Rev. and Mrs. Stlbltz mem hers of the same and regretting very much the loss sustained by the necessity of severing the pleasaut ties of association Several other members were called on and responded In words of regret and wishes for the success and prosperty of the leave- taking members. Miss Major, the Elocu ttonist, gave one of her excellent recitations which was much enjoyed, and after the class of the arranged programme a number of spirited games were played which were highly relished by those present.

In this band ot Itcpubllcan conspirators we recognize Gov. Beaver as formoat. We also de nounce the same Gov. for tho executive aid gh en to monopoly and for his veto of thu Pluck me Store Order 1)111. The Republican Legislature of 1886 with the Senate as a bulwark to monoiwly was on a par with Gov. Beaver, aud aUo mcilts tho emphatic condemnation ot the people. The actions ot our late reprcsc ntattou In Congress the Hon. J. Storm, meet .with the? Itcaity appioval ol the Democracy of Carbon County. We endorse the actions ot senator Shull, ot Monroe and Hon. Daniel Bachtnan, ot Caibou lip faithful representatives of tho people lu the Legislature of Pennsylvania and we characterize the Legislative career ot Representative Anthony Raudenbush, as that ot a typical, stalwart Rep ublican all for bosses nothing for the people and as such deserving the utmost reproof of the cltizlns ot Carbon county, Irrespective of party.
