The undersigned embrace this op
portunity of returning their sincere
thanks to those of their friends who
did so much by their sympathy aud
kind offices to lighten the burden of
the affliction placed upon them in the
death of their only child on Sunday
last. Words cannot express their
gratitude, nor can anything but death
obliterate the memory of the deeds of
love and kindness performed in that
dark hour of bereavement.

On Sundny last a deer ran into the
clearing at Laurel Mill. All hands at
once turned out, and it was but a short
time before the nimble-footed animal
was captured. It seemed bewildered
at the Humber of men and dogs which
It encountered at every step. This
was quite a piece of luck for the citi
zens of Laurel Mill, and an unlucky
thing for the poor deer, who was soon
served up for the Laurel Millites' din-
ner.

Baby is dead. Yes, it is too true.
" 'Tis well with the child," we know.
Little Jay needs notour tears nor pity,
Safe in the arms of Jesus," what
more could we ask? But the aching
hearts left behind. The lovinc mother.
fond father, aud dear graudparents;
to these with streaming eyes and teu-
derest sympathy we would say, "God's
will be done."
Jay was a remarkably bright and
beautiful child. Sick ouTv since last
Wednesday, it does not seem possible,
that to-day we have laid his dear little
form in the dark tomb. The cher
ished treasure of his home, the almost
idolized pet of grandma; yet 'twas God
that said, "Bring me the child." And
although the little dimpled hand will
no longer lap on the window, and the
sweet voice call "Drama," your little
one waits at heaven's window, a bright
beacon light for your tired feet, when
they shall "Crossthe river,"aud angels'
voices welcome you home.

Or when the frogtofiige boa whltcued o'er

And looked so lovely on Its mother's breast.
The source of many a hope and many a

Why should we shed n tear or breathe a Blgli,

Yes, all, wo know, must die.

At tho court house on Friday even

held a large and cntnusiastlc meeting.
Brass bands were at the meeting, one
from St. Mary's and one from Dngus
Mines. A special train brought a
large delegation from St. Mary's. The
court house was packed.
E. J. Miller was chosen chairman,
and In a few well chosen remarks
thanked the audience for th honor
which they had conferred on him.
A long list of vice presidents was
read by C. H. M'Cauley.
G. C. Brandon and W. C. Healy
were elected secretaries.
President Miller introduced the ora
tor of the evening, A. G. Curtiu. M r.
Curtiu made a speech which those who
do not agree with him In many par
ticulars are willing to acknowledge
was au effort worthy the fame of the
old war Governor. - Many things he
said were true from all standpoints.
Many times he was interrupted with
applause, so that he could scarcely
proceed. He said of Stewart, the In
dependent candidate for Governor,
He is the peer of any man in the I
Stale, both as to natural abilites and
in culture." Mr. Curtiu was listened
to with rapt attention throughout his
remarks.

him out of misery by shooting.
All he said was froth.
There were ladies in tho audience,
And the Silly-Tougued Bloat know
it not.
He told dirty stories,
Filthy as rot,
Until ladies withdrew indignant,
And men could scarce refrain from
hissing him to scorn,
And yet he knew not common de
cency,
But blatted and blatted.
Shame, shame, O! shame,
That such an one should follow
Curtin's manly effort.
And yet S. T. U. survives ;
Not on the principle that the fittest
should survive.
But that it takes all kinds of people
to make a world.
O! shame, S. T. B.
But that you were Democrat
We should assail you more,
For if that party can stand you and
live
It's none of our funeral,
But we'd hate to be a Democratic
party,
That's all.
The Jicxt National Senate.
Philadelphia Press.
Some of our esteemed contempora-
ies see in the Ohio election and the
division among Republicans elsewhere
grounds for anticipating not only that
the next House, but the next Senate
as well, will be Democratic. The gain
)f eight eongressinem by the Domo
rats In Ohio undoubtedly favors the
(inclusion that that party will control
the next National House of Representa
tives. The Senate, however, chanires
lowly, and there are no new senators
to be chosen this year In Ohio, Penn
sylvania or New York, the three
States which Republican disaffection
gives the Democracy a transient
strength. The Republicans have al
ready lost one senator in the person of
Kellogg, of Louisanu, who will bosuo
ceeded after March 3 next by Randall
L. Gibson. This, however, is offset
by the election of Riddleborger in the
place of Johnston, of Virginia, as lie
will undoubtedly follow the example
of Mahoneand act with tho Republi
cans. '1 his would maintain the tie if
the other Republicans senators 'whose
terms expire next March are suc
ceeded by those of like faith, but the
election of a Republican Legislature
in Oregon Insures the choice of a Re
publican senator in placo of Mr.
Grover. This will make thirty-eight
Republicans, two Readjustee and
thirty six Democrats in the next
Senate, unless the Republicans meet
with some unexpected losses. The
senators of tbatpiyty, besides Kellogg,
whose term expires next March, ure
Chilcott, of Colorado; McDill, of
Iowa; Plumb, of Kansas; Frye, of
Maine; Hoar, of Massachusetts; Ferry,
of Michigan; Windom, of Minnesota;
Saunders of Nebraska; Rollins, of
New Hampshire, and Anthony, of
Rhode Island. The last named sena
tor has already been re-elected, and
Wilson, Republican, chosen to suc
ceed McDill. The September election
in Maine insures a Republican from
that State, while the chum of the
Democrats capturing the Legislature
of Colorado, Kansas, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska or
New Hampshire, are not very great.
Tho Republicans, on the contrary,
have a fair prospect of .choosing sena
tors of their own party from both
New Jersey aud Illinois to succeed
John R. McPtiersou and David Davis.
The Judgeship.
Cameron Press.
The judicial coufeience, which has
been In a "dead-lock" for the past four
weeks came to a close lawt Saluiday by
the withdrawal of S. F. Wilson from
the contebt. Two of the Tioa dele
gates voted for A. G. Olmsted, thus
nominating him on tho 832 ballot.
Messrs. Wilson and Smiley appeured
before the conference and la neat
speeches indorsed the nomination and
pledged their support. The end of
this "dead-lock" is hailed with delight
by all good Republicans. The nomina
tion of Mr. Olmstead Insures bis elec

throughout the district us a lawyer of
large experience and has for years oc
cupied a front runk in his profession.

gressionul District, composed of the
counties of Union, Clinton, Clearfield,
venire, rm anil . m limn, you were

Very respectfully,

M. J. WATT, Esq., S'C'y, I
Republican Conference,
1:0th Congressional District. J
Gentlemen: Yourletteraf the Kith
Inst, is received, informing me that, at
a meeting of tho Republican Congres
sional Conference of the Twentieth
Congressional district, composed of the
counties of Union, Centre, Clearfield,
Clinton, Elk and Mifflin, I was unan
imously chosen the nominee of the
Republican party in said district for
Congress.
The six counties included in this
district embrace a portion of the State
iu which agriculture, nuuiufucturiug
and mining are leading industries;
and a frugal, industrious and happy
people pursue their several avocations
measurably undisturbed by political
agitation. Democrats and Republi
cans alike, ure interested in, and de
mand, good government, and a just
and economical use of political power
in whosesover hands tho same may be
placed. Their devotion to the Union
was manifested when rebellion threat
ened its destruction; and from almost
every farm, workshop, mine and forest
the bravest and the best went forth to
oiler their lives on the altar of their
country.
It would be a high honor to repre
sent so industrious, intelligent and pa
triotic a constituency in the Congress
of the United States; and, if elected,
whatever of ability or energy I have
would be devoted to a faithful dis
charge of the duties of the office.
It will bo the imperative duly of
your representative In Congress to la
bor zealously not only for the reduc
tion of public expenditures tut for a
return to a system of severe economy.
A juvt complaint at this time is that
more revenue is assessed upon aud col
lected from the people than is required
for the proper demands of government.
A plethoric public treasury begets
needless extravagance in expenditures,
and, as a consequence, useless offices
are created, and the public revenue is
largely appropriated to the payment of
salaries to ollieials, whose services,
like their salaries, are a burden, and
only a burden upon the people. The
system of Internal Revenue needs
thorough revision. The system which
brings revenue into tho treasury aud
at the same time brings a just reward
to labor aud the products of the mine.
the factory and farm, Is the protective
tariff.
1 recognize the fact that former elec
tions indicate that thedistrict is largely
Democratic, aud that my distinguished
competitor has attained high honors in
both political purties; and, while I sin
cerely hoped that this nomination
might bo conferred upon someono bet
ter qualified, I do not feel at liU rty to
dechuo the call, aud submit the mutter
of election to the voters of the district.
Very respectfully,
Samuel H. Ouwio.
