- Indications on every hand nssure us
In no uncertain manner that Winter
has inaugurated a reign of ice and
snow of a magnitude unheard of in
many years in this section of the
country. Each day snow falls in
greater or less quantities, generally
greater mitil the face of nature is
covered with a mantle of snow any
where from eighteen indies to two
feet in depth. The hauling of'bark,
wood and lumber, that lias been
carriedontoagre.it extent with the
advantages of good sleighing and just
about the right quantity of snow dur
ing the first part of the season, is now
interfered with by the great depth of
snow in the woods, which brings
business almost to a standstill. The
woods about town are bending al
most to breaking with their weight
of snow; which hangs in festooned
beauty, aud when gilded by the tun's
declining rays or tinted with the
moon's pale beams, are an object of
beauty mid gruudure, which some
painter might try in vain to portray
on canvass ; no picture can ever be
made that will bring to the mind the
thrill of delight to lovers of the
beautiful that are awakened by the
sublime spectacle of the evergreen
hemlocks and pines that stand thickly
studding the hills about our beautiful
Borough garlanded with their bright
wreaths of beautiful snow. This
winter is one long to be remembered
both for the great number of terribly
cold days, as well as the great amount
of snow and long continued good
sleighing. Even in the memories of
the "Oldest inhabitant'1 this winter is
ttot excelled in the particulars above
named, and we much doubt if in that
same mind it bus ever been equalled.
Lumberiug operations have been
pushed to an unheard of extent, em
ployment is given at fair rates to
many, everybody is busy aud all are
happy on account of the. excellent
winter and liberal allowance of the
beautiful snow.
Steel Rail Productfau Last Tear.
The Iron Age say that the increase
in the production of steel rails last
year is extinmted at about 25 per cent.,
or, In round numbers, feoO.omi net tons.
The output at the various mills is like
ly to be aliout as follows: Eduar
Thompson. UO.OOil; Cambria, lmi.iKMi;
North Chicapo, f5,0IO; Juliet, 8"(mi
Bethlehem, fco.OOO; Pennsylvania, 9",
000; Kcranton, 7J,0(K; Troy. 70,(Hi;
Cleveland, 00,000; Union, 6,(i0() ; Vul
can, 40,000, It should le stated, how
ever, that the production during the
last six months is much the greatest,
some of the mills having been entirely
closed during the early portion of the
year. The above estimate is believed
to understate the output rather than
otherwise, in which ease a production
of over a million and a quarter net
tons can be made iu 1881 it necessary.

January i,
Some time since some friends In Illi
noy sent me a shirt, lieinbutslx In
ches in length from the collar to the
eend uv the tall, it wuxn't uv any
great yootility considered en a shirt.
Ez n token uv remembrance it wuz a
perfect tlnng, but considered in t lie
lite uv aslilrt for were, or lor pownin
for likker (which Is the yoose I hev
git'crally put my shirt to), it wuz a
failyoor.
J don't keer about lievln shirts pre
sentid to me. Ez a rool I don't wear
em, and when I go into Republican
conimomiitics wher sick sooperllooitics
are considered nessnry. I kin borrer
em otl'uv cluzo lines any time utter
twelve nt nite.
Hut likker, that is another thing.
People in the visinity uv the Cross
Roads do leeve titer shirts out all nlte,
so a supply is alluz attainable. Rut I
never knowed a man In this visinuity
to every leeve a burl uv whisky out
fiver ni'te, and cqiisekently that hez to
lie prokkoored otherwise.
A few days after receevin that shirt
I got u little box by mail, with the fol
lowing letter:
Ottumwa, Iowa, December 10.
Petroleum V. Xuxby: .
I have been . a constant reader of
your letters for some time, and as you
stand greately In need of a Jug of
whisky, I take this opportunity of
sending you h jugful for Christinas.
Hoping it will reach you safe, I sub
crihe myself,
M. C. Carlos.
This wuz a holler mockery. It wuz
a lug aud wuz actilly filled with
whisky, b'lttliejtig itself wuzn't big
ger than a thimlile, and the HUker it
contained woodcut hev made u drink
for Tom Thumb. I drank it. how
ever, but the only efl'eck wuz lo nrowse
a slumLerin appetite, and make me
insane for more, wich wuz wloked, ez
Rascom positively refoozes tn give any
credit watever, and I hevn't seen a
dollar since I wuz votin for Hancock
in injeany.
Rut it merciful Providence interfered
ez it ulliiz does. The very next day I
rcseeved the folleriu letter:
Canmi, III., Dec. 23d, 1881.
To ficv. Petroleum V Xuby, C'on-
federole X Poo flu, A ..."
Estki.mkd FniKNii: We, a few of
your admiring Incmls here in Egypt,
have read with much pleasure anil
fully endorse the observation made by
you on receiving a shirt or what pur
ported to be a shirt, from some of your
friends up at Kininundv. From 'des
cription we arc led to believe that if
tnis particular garment, or what pur
ports to lie a garment, Had licen before
Tom Hood when he sung "the sonir of
the shirt' he would have cut his tune
to short meter
We desire to furnish nmore material
token of our regard to you for your
dislininiished services in ' behalf of our
time honored, buttle scarred old party.
i nerc is nothing mean norsmaiinbout
us. We think we know where to
touch a tender, sympathetic chord in
the Democratic heart. We send no
siipeilluous articles of food or clothing.
Ours is a more substantial oli'ering ;
something more in liaiinoii) with
Democrat hi ideas, more congenial to
Democratic ta-tes, mote palatable and
toothsome to Democratic epicures, mid
something which the average Demo
crat can always ''roll as a sweet morsiil
under his tongue." In other words,
accompanying this we send you u
quantity of us uood whisky us tiny
body need wnntT We do not stop to
inquire whether this liquor is better
or best ; we acknowledge no such dis
tinctions; all liquor is good to a
Democrat. This is Fisher's standard
article; it is such as Democrats use
here, and v e trust it will compare fa
vorably willi Rascom's favorite brands.
We part with il somewhat reluctant I v,
but we arc consoled by the thought
that you will do umple justice to it.
We send this us our "Christniasgit't''
to you, i he greatest Democratic lender
anil chieftain of the age ami with it
lie wish that you may have a merry,
jolly old time.

Oh how eagerly I opened it. I cood
not wait for a hammer, but I tore it
open with my hands. Enclosed with
in wuz a jug, a two gallon jug. Then
came a sickeuin tlmt. Wuz this the
work uvsuni Ablishen feends? Wuz
this jug Hi led with water? Wuz it n
gaslly joke? Nervin myself and feel'
in the worst, I pulled the cork. Hal
lelrogy ! It wuz whisky, and the best
I hev soot lied my bowels with for
many a day. I am liviu on the likker,
but it is about out Wood that that
jug wuz like the Widder Cruse's oil,
inexhaustible. IStil II Is ever thus.
The pleasant things of this life is ev
anescent A jug of likker is like frost
a lore the sun, but a bile stops with you

came in u iialc keg. Hed the Corners

never hev rt celled me. Seiice Rascom

a gallon jug of likker is sullicieut lo
prodoose a riot.
Foliciiu this comes this letter:

P. V. Mashy Dear ISir: I have m
the honor (it living in Illinois, but 1
am one of your 'ev York admirers.
My
beli
My sympathies are aroused in your
nut, and us you are expecting a
"nale keu" with a iuir in it. I take
pleasure in sending you the keg, but
it contains Jfuril Cider whisky not
being in my line. If a Democrat hud
manufactured it, however, it might
have been "Apple Jack ;" but as I am
a Republican Rcchabite, it is "Apple
Jelly." I trust you will accept it, nnd
find il so "comforting" and appetizing
that you will begin the New Year u
Kechubite.
Hoping to hear from you soon, I re
main, Yours truly,
V. L. Hioelow.
The keg contained a large cun uv
some kind uv a compound called "ap
ple jelly." the yoose uv wich I don't
know. I took it over to Rascom's tind
traded it for a quart of MS nno whisky,
and Mrs. Rascom yoosed it on tier ta
ble. She sex it is a delightful thing to
hev iu the house, ami she hez never
quit talking about it. I didn't dare
tell her it come from a Noo York Yan
kee, for she woodent huv yoosed it,
and she s poses to-day it wuz made in
Kentucky. It don t make any dirl
ruise. I got tlte quurt and so it wuz
u v some yoose.
I am willin to take most anything.
If I can't yoose it mvself, I kin trade
it to Rascom for wut i kin yoose, and
so I git a benefit. Rut the jelly man
must not for a moment supose that I
kin yoose cider in that sliupe. It
might hev tasted well when I was a
tender boy, but my stumick hez past

The New West.
Philadelphia Pnsj.)
The population of the eight organ
ized Territories foots up 003,033. Under
the present ratio of Congressional rep
resciitalion 1131, 425) two of these Ter
litories, Dakota and Utah, would be
eligible foradmission as Slates. Should
the rutin be increased, as contemplated
by the Cox bill, to 101,018, there is no
lerrilory which yet comes tin to the
stunduid. The Congressional rutin of
Hppoi'llontnuit bus not ulways been
Ihe test in judging the Illness of a
petit inning 'lYrritorv to assume the
dignity of Statehood, but as a general
rule the application of a Territory
whose population would not entitle It
to one Congressman under the ratio
lias not been favorably received. In
consequence each decade makes admis
sion more difficult to Ihe extent of
requiring a greater population than
wouid formerly sullice.
Since the last census but one State,
Colorado, lias, been admitted to the
Union, though nearly' every other pre
vious deende shows ati addition of
three or tour. At t lie present time
thcie are bills pending for the admis
sion of Dakota. Washington. Utah
und New; Mexico. These Territories
are all in a thriving condition und rap
Idly increasing ,in population The
present Congress will hardly consider
Ihcir applications now, and by the
time they are taken up by the next
Congress' the populations of one or two
of (hem tit leost will probably have so
far advanced as to warrant their ad
mission. The applications of Wash
ington and Dakotu are coupled with
proposed chamres in their boundaries,
which, in their future healings, are
highly important, in the case of
Washington it is proposed to increase
its area by adding to it thai portion of
Idaho directly east of it. Dakota it is
proposed to divide in half. It is even
urged in some quarters t lint it be divi
ded into three. Such a division is, in
deed, necessary if the average size of
the older Stales is lo regulate the pro
portions of (lie States to lie admitted iu
the extreme West. This would be the
correct rule if the rapacities and pros
pects of these proposed States nre on u
pur with their sisters, but not other
wise. Between the 100th meridian and the
Sierra Nevada Mountains is u vast re
iflon characterized by insulllcicnt rain
fall. Its former appellation of "C rent
American Desert" was not without u
certain degree of appropriateness. It
is capable of supporting a very consid
erable, but not u dense population.
Agriculture can only thrive on the
limited urea which will admit of irri
gation. While much of the land is
invaluable for grazing purposes and
Ihe most barren regions seem to con
tain an inexhaustible supply of min
eral wealth, no well-advised person
anticipates tliat this section will ever
contain anywhere near the same aver
age population as the corrcspom in
States east of the Missouri. It is,
therefore, a reasonable precaution
against further gro.-s Inequalities of
representation for Congress to insist
that the Slates proposed from this
section sha.l have u considerable
greater area than the more favorably
situated States of the East.
Washington, the smallest of the or
ganizt d Territorit s, has a population
of 7,0U0. The desired addition from
Idaho would increase tins a little and
make its area about 8O.000 square miles
or very nearly the size of Kansas As
the situation of t he Territory is ex
ceptionally favorable for lis acquiring
ultimately a dense population this is
probably siillicicntly large, (hough il
the Rocky Mountains were made its
eastern boundary, giving u portion of
Molilalia, us well as the northern part
of Idaho, the new state would still be
smaller than Colorado or Nevada and
litt le if any larger than Oregon. Da
kota is u vast region over three limes
the urea of Pennsylvania Its fertile
wheat lands east of the Missouri in
sure that portion of t he Territory a
large population. A short distance
west of the river the region of scanty
rains and necessarily sparse popula
tion begins. Ry dividing I his western
third between Montana ami Wyom
ing there will be enough le;t to make
a Slate the size of Colorado, which
will contain the hulk of Ihe present
population of the Territory, which is
13-,180. To divide Dakota into three
pints is to condemn it to a Territorial
condition lor many years to come and
then give us three leeble states with
six Senators instead one stiong State
with aju.-t allotment of two.
New Mexico has a population of
11sj.4-:o, hut this is so largely made up
of Mexicans and hali'-bieed Indians
unfit to t-xercie the right of sufirage
that the admission of this Territory is
not desirable until the infusion ol new
b.ood by imniiy ration shall materially
change the character of its people.
Utah lias the largest population ofauv
of the proposed Slates, it being 14a.-
;f"u. 1 111- iiii mini ijuiriiiiii nnuiil
stand iu the way of the consideration
of its petition lor admission to the
Union even If ils population were
twice as large. Congress may not see
its way to tsu 111 11 111 1 ily suppress poly
gamy. It will hardly, however, lie
willing to perpetuate it by. throwing
around it the shield of States' Riyliu,
The (iropcr disposition of this Terri
tory is to cede it to Nevada, under such
conditions as will insure the anti
Mormon clemeiits ihe useendency in
die Stale thus enlarged. Nevada
would then have an urea somewhat
less than Texas and a population o!
2o0,0tHi, which would make it lead
both Delaware und Colorado instead
of being, us now, a -discredited unci
dU'crcditahle pocket borough of 62,000
inhabitants and with little prospect of
improving its condition.

"BY WILFOBD."
This book has unquestionably re
ceived, from Ihe press aud the clergy,
stronger praise u,,y other book
ever published, and Is universally ad
mitted to be the only work iu exis
tence which absolutely' demonstrates
a personal Ood and the iininortalily
of the soul by science ubuie, without
the aid of the Wide, utterly annihilat
ing the theories of Darwin, Huxley,
Tyndull, llelmhol'.z and others of the
evolution of man from the lower uni
niulsund his extinction ut death. No
better proof of the extraordinary char
acter of tliis work can be asked than
the following extracts from the relig
ious tress a mere specimen of hun
dreds equally enthusiastic:
"This.lsjthe book of the age, and
the unknown author need aspire to no
greater literary immortality than the
production or this work will give him,
and thousands of the best educated
minds that have been utpallcd by the
philosophical teachings of moilern
scientists will rise up and call him
blessed" Methodist Protestant,
Baltimore, Mil.
"We can truly say that wc arc
ama.cd at the oiiuinidity, thorough
ness, ami, marvellous ability of the
tiuthorof this work." New Coven
ant, Chicago.
"It is i nUrely out. of the ordinary
line of scientific und philosophical
bonks, and abounds in orgiiineiits of a
most startling character." Herald
and Presbyterian, Citin.
"Although strictly scientific, its out
aim is the demonstration of a personal
(iod and a hercufler for humanity. It
is 1111 exhaust less mine of christian
truth, it is the literary thief il'neuvre
ofthe age. All ministers and lay
members should read It. It is ail
armory full of the Almighty for the
pulling down of strongholds. It is
worth its weight in diamonds."
Urcthreu at Work.
"The author (a man of acknowl
edged genius nnd confessedly the
brightest scientific star of modern
times) hassiartled Ihe religious world
into transports of joy and praise. No
re'ligo-scientilic work has received
both from the secular and religious
press such willing and unqualified
