that if a man witutslto catch fish, let him

says,
when the moon is full,,the nights - be;

foraging in the night time. Of course, hav
ing their ivaits supplied, they'll° up all. day,
and condepently there is a scarcity of
"bites." Under the new moon season, the
fish have to sleep at night, and work by .
day; that makes the difference in the Rah

MIL - K
TRADE.—Tho milk trade, along
the line of the Philadelphia and deading
Railroad,. is becoming an important branch
of business': The farmers and dairymen
;Jong the lino send down their milk by the
Pottstown Accommodation Train, which
leaves hero at 10:46 in the morning, and re
ceive their canes front their city . customers
by . the return of the same train in the even
ing, The total quantity of the lacteal fluid
taken to Philadelphia daily by this train is
nearly" 2,600 gallons; Of this, the heaviest
shipment from one_station is front Pottstown
—say about 000 gallons ; the next largest
quantity N front Perkiomen Junction, about
600 gallons, and Limerick Station comes
next, with abottC4oo gallons. The remain
derl, of the supply comes front Sanptoga,
Royerat Ford, and other stations below.
The milk trade along the Schuylkill Val
ley is rapidly increasing, and will soon rival
the trade over the North Pennsylvania
Railroad, - from whence, we believe, the Qua
ker City draws its jirinciptil supply: -Our
farmers find that selling the milk to, the city
'dealers is mitre remunerative than butter
making, and a gregt many of them are
changing their • dairies aceorditigly.—Potes

We answer, because we do nut recognise

published, throu4lt the influence of de ,
signing Radicals, tor the purpose of InjtrinK,
the Democratic party in this comity, and for

in speaking of this hearing, said,,m effect )
that they (thirßepubliCans) "didn't Ore a
(1-31 'huie the case went, if they . oulitonly
?mike mischief in the Pemocentie party!"
Now, as our mission' -is to create unity,
and not mischief, in the ranks of the gallant
Democracy of Berks, we d ee m, Anl i s i i iti lig ,
our Republican friends in making mischief
by . the publication
,of , testimony
which is- all . on ono side, and in
which 110 cross examination ,or other pan
ticipation, of the counsel for the defence has
been find. The publication of evidence thus
taken, Aithout contradiction or, cross-exam
inatien, will only tend to mislead, the pub
ic mind as to the true state of thesnse.
As soon as the case is brought, before the
proper tribunal, the Court, (which will be
within a few days) we give a fair and
truthful synopsis of the evidence,. on both
sides, for the information of our readers/ In,
the meantime we positively. decline to assist
the Republicans in qinnking mischief in the

Ledger df kesterday, states that at a pic-nie
hold by tfid Trinity Reformed Sunday School
of pat borough, on ThursdWast, inn woods
near Limerick station, a party of boys stir
red up a bumblebees' nest. Tho boos attacked
a party of, ladies near. by, severely stinging
Mrs. lloshon and a babe she held in her
arms, and it was with considerable difficulty
the insects were driven.from her, and then
not until a number of the party wore badly
stung. Mra., ]3oshon, who is the wife of
Philip Roshon, ‘ of that borough, was placed
in amig' and driven home by Mr.Jesso
bert. Among the other persons to whom the
bees took a Ailey was the Wife and two
daughters of Mr. M. Y. Scheffey, 'a daughter
of Mr. Zeno Dampman, of that place, and
the two Misses Werner, of Reading. Tho
most singular part of the affair was that
nearly all who were stung, becameimmedi-
Moly thereafter very sick.

MIL Emelt: is. Very peculiar, indeed,
that that always boasting papet:,the Dispatch,
is silent about the *tents of the so:called
masterly 'speech of Mr. Carl Schurz. It is a
pity that, no short-hand' writer was . there . to
give to the public a full reount of the dirty
principles laid down by ono of their best au
thorities. Not a 'sound idea has been pronoun
ced that could stand ti fair judgment ! . and in
Pgiving the speech a great circulation the
eople could see the foul play and rottenness
of the goviAjng party; and a full statement
of the speccvould convert still more Re•
publicans to4he Democriitic -party. Sen;io
straw-filled head styles Ilitriself "A Former
Democrat," and as ho can't say anythlog
good about Mr. Schurz, he barks at eve 6,
one who says the truth, and feels evidently
very unqui,y about
.the place where ho be
longs, to the asses or to the Radicals.
