Vote for Gordon for Supreme
Jii'le, because, there bhouli be
no mistake about tbe sound
ness oi' the views ol the men
who constitute that great tri
bunal on all of the leading fea
tures in the form of civilization
that won in the war against
rebellion, and because by so
doing you keep Ju Ige Ludiow,
where he now is, on the bench
of the Court of Common Pleas
in Philadelphia. lie should be
kept there, lor if he is remov
ed by this election, our Demo
cratic friends would never get
through scolding that they
have no representative on the j
bench of that Court in Phila
delphia; all know how they
pcold when they have a th.idow
of an excuse that permits them
to do so Remove the shadow
bv voting for Gordon.
Miss Clara Louiea Kellogg, recognized
as the most gifted and cultured of Ameri
can prima donncs, is filling an engagement
in Philadelphia, this wee!;, at tbe Academy
of Music. Last Friday we chanced to be
in the same car that carried Miss Kellogg to
the city, and in the seat immediately in
fiont of the one in which the distinguished
lady sat alone. In the future if we are to
have one, if our days are not soon ended
we shall write among our reminiscences of
travel, of how on Friday morning of Octo
ber 3rd, 1873, a well preset ved old gentle
man, of perhaps sixty years, employed the
ingenuity at It is command to press his at
tentions on a lady in a seat buck of ours,
and how the refined manner in which she
repulsed his efforts to form acquaintance,
induced us to look bark and so familiarize
our eyes with the cist ot her features that
when we pot into the city and esw the
picture of Miw Kellogg in shop or store
windows, we instantly recognized it as
having beeu taken from the face of the
lady who sat in the seat b ick of ours in
the car. We'd ride or drive a dozen ol
miles to witness tiie looks of lhat old goose
of a fellow when informed of the name of
the lady upon whom he attempted io show
er his attentions that morning.
Vote for Mackcy for State
Treasurer, because, the State
finance is in a wholesome con
dition, and it is be.-t to. kt ep it
so, and because, all the charges
against him have been fabrica
ted by his enemies for political
purposes.
In a case of breach of promise of mar
riage iu Brooklyn, recently, a lady recov
ered (15,001). The case was some hut
pec-.iliar. The woman admitted that her
beau bad not in words asked for marriage,
and that she had not in words promised to
marry him, but that he bad been courteous
and on divers occasions squeezed her band,
and tl vrefore she inferred he meant mar
riaje. Tbe judge charged iu substance,
that "actions speak louoer than words,"
and l.iereou the jury found for the woman.
The man could not think nt submitting to
such a verdict, coustqueutl- hecanied the
case up to I lie "Courl of Appeals." That
tiibunal sustained the court below, mid
now there is no rimed,- for the beau but to
pay oi marry. The case. - it stands, may
throughout be Correct. Be it so or not, so
the veriiict is tbe same, and the question
naturally coni-i up. If it cota so many
thousand dollars to squeeze a woman's
band iu Brooklyn, what would it cost him
to kiss a woman's hand ? and what would
the courts there pronounce on a man for
kissing a Woman's lips? If we were a
lawyer we'd bve the opinions c.l the
Brooklyn courts in that case if it took a
year's practice. It is so very important,
und eft'ec's such a !rge circle of people.
Vote f..r Irwin for the Senate
because, he is a man of solid
worth, and no political jobber.
Donaldson started in his balloon to
Europe on Monday at 9 o'clock, from
New ork, Contrary winds prevented
him from even getting to the ocean.
The air-ship was overtaken by atorm
down in Connecticut, and having been
worked near enough to the ground to
permit Donaldson and his two com
panions to jump out, they leaped out
and left the balloon goto, no one knows
where,
Vote for Henry, because, by
so doing you vote for the best
interest of this and other Lcgis
attve districts.
Two carrier pigeons that were turned
loose (rum I'rof. Light's balloon during his
recent ascension li-oiu .f Itoona alter ho had
reached an altitude of 7,'W feet, returned
to their cote in Philadelphia within ten
hours afterwards, each bearing a message
attached to its wing.
The real old cpiiootic has just got to
British Columbia, and all the horses and
mules on Victoria Island arc laid up with it.
Vote for. Lemon, because,
be is competent and was a good
soldier; enlisted at home and
gave his credit to Juniata coun
ty ' without bounty; while Mr.
Knouse enlisted where he got
the most bounty and gave his
credit to Buck's county.
Beading has bad a new sensation.
This tinia it comes from Alasce town
ship, and relates to tbe domestic affairs
of a wealthy farmer named Isaac Uan-
er, who some yeara ago met a pretty
match girl, with whom be fell in love
and induced her to become Mrs. Beckia
Ganser. He furnished ber with every
thing that the heart of woman could be
supposed to desire, an4 a'l weut as
happy as a whole string of marriage
bells, and the uuiou was blessed with
one beautiful little girl named Katie.
But alas, for the perversity of woman
kind. The wife for some reason be
came dissatisfied, and soou it became
apparent that Eeckie and Isaac were
out, and cn Sunday night of Ust week
she left, and uow the Heading Eage is
informed that Beckie has taken refuge
iu the city of Philadelphia, where she
will in future rsst coutent to live a life
of single blessedness. It has also been
made known that she loaded up all her
clothes and worldly effects on a wheel,
barrow, Sunday night, aud actually
wheeled them the eutire distance
from Alsace to Beading, and up 7th
street, where she remained until ber
departure for the City of Brotherly
Love. She attributes ber action to ill
treatment on tbe part of ber husband.

Vote for IStambaugh for
Treasurer, because, he will
make an old fashioned, orthodox
treasurer, as sure and steady to
the trust as "the needle to the
pole"
The Sunbury Daily says : It is only a few
days since a lovely child of a Sunbury Tarn
ily was givun a few drops of laudanum, and
it went to sleep never to awake. On Sua
dar another like case was made known tons,
only the child happily recovered. On Sat
urday its parents, who reside in Sharuokin
township, came to visit same friends here
where tbe child took diarrhea badly, mong
the remedies applied was laudanum, which
had been a very long time iu the lious,
from which the liquid had evaporated, leav
ing it nothing else than concentrated opium,
which proved so fatal iu the first incnliondd
ease.
Vote for Wilson, for Com
missioner, because, there should
be a balance in the office. It
is is too heavy on the side of
our Democratic inends.
We said above that Judge
Ludlow should not be taken
out of the Court of Common
Pleas, because, the Democrats
would scold that their balance
is lost m that Court. Vote
for Wilson to keep us Repub
licans lrem scolding and give
us a balance in the commis
sioners' office.
The food of the French workman Is, aa a
general rule, substantially inferior to thai
to which the Kncliiihman is accustomed.
Many a French factory hand never lias any
thing better fur his breakfast than a large
slice of common sour bread, rubbed over
with an onion, so as to give it a flavor. For
dinner, some soup, potatoes or carrots, and
sometimes a small piece of pork, which
costs aliout ten pence a pound ; and for
their last meal they eat the meat of which
their soup was composed. With this frugal
tare some drink ouly water, others halt a
bottle wf cider, ber or wine. Bread, veg
etables and Iruit are generally to be obtain
ed in France both cheap and good, but
meat is bad aud dear.
Vote for Motzer. Vote for
Landis.. Vote for McAfee. Vote
