Cold Weather.
For the last ten days the weather in this
neighborhood has been as cold as there is a-
ny need of its being. Blue noses and warm
overcoats arc all the go, and promise to be
for some time to come. For a month we
&ave had uninterrupted sleighing1, and it
looks as though it might continue for a month
longer. Those of our citizens who own ice
houses have succeeded in filling them with
ice of better quality than has been gathered
jn this section of country for years.
One Professor Charles Parkusou,
Instructor of 31 usic from Boston, Mass..
has been doing the citizens of Port Jcr
vis to the tunc of about 200. Among
the victims was the Printer, whom he
fleeced out of some $25 for Jobbing aud
t jvcrtising, his land iady from whom he
Inrrowcd a shawl which he forgot to re
turn, and for Board which he forgot to
pay, aud a Mrs. Knapp from whom he
borrowed a S50 Diamond ring, with which
to flash out at a Concert at which he rais
ed the wind to travel on. The Professor
is represented to be about 22 years of
age, somewhat fleshy, aud to possess an
exceedingly effeminate voice. lie is a
very oung wan, but acts as though he
possessed the experience of a very old
sinner. The Tri States Union, cautions
.tlie public generally, and the craft partie
ularly, to beware of the Professor.
Sinner to the Soldiers.
The members of Co. D, 21st Pa. Cavalry,
remaining in this place, were treated by
several of our citizens, a few day's since, to
a substantial, old fashioned, home-made din
ner. The preparation of the dinner was en
trusted to mine host of the American, Mr.
Knecht and his met estimable lad, whose
.services were rendered gratuitously, and who
also contributed most liberally from their well
filled stores. Of course no mere need be
said to satisfy the public that the cuisane
was all that could be desired. For their
irentlemanly deportment the members of the
company are highly esteemed by our citizens,
who have taken this method ofshowiajr their
appreciation of general good conduct. Both
officers and men of the company have reques
ted us to tender their sincere thanks to the
generous getters up of the feast.

BOROUGH BOKBS.
We call the attention of our readers to
tho advertisement headed "Money Wanted,"
to be found in another column. As the re
sponsibility of the Borough may safely be
depended upon, and as the rate of interest is
fully equal to the maximum allowed by law,
there is no reason why capitalists, as a sure
investment, should not take these Bonds
readily. But there is a reason why they
should take them eagerty. The object oi
the loan is to place means in the hands of
the Borough authorities to enable them to
fill our quota under the recent call for 300-,
000 men. Under all other calls the Borough
stands hquare with the War Department,
and as the signs of the times indicate a spee
dy peace, it is fair to infer that if we fill
this quota, we shall be no more troubled for
men. All that is required to place us even
again, is that our citizens should subscribe
liberally and speedily for these bonds. The
longer these subscriptions are with-held the
greater will be the expense and the trouble
of supplying men ; and if we hesitate too
Jong we may nnd it too late to avoid the
draft, and our Laborers and Mechanics, o

The man subject to draft, too, should fee!

loan. If taken he is certain of the privilege

should step forward promptly to aid the bo

forts to save them from the pains of parting

sued in sums of 25, 50 and $100. and
will, consequently, be within the reach of
all sums certainly hundreds of per cent
below what would be required to secure

We hope the loan will receive that
r.-inpt consideration and attention which

us a community demands.

The Enrollment Board. s
v From the rumors afloat wo judge that
quite an effort is being made to remove
the whole, or a portion of the present
Enrollment Board; and from the num
ber of patriots who are willing to souse
themselves into the "kettle of hot water,"
which the Enrollment headquarters real
ly is, we infer that the effort is to be by
no means a slight one. We opine, howev
er, that the powers that be at Washington
will conclude to let well enough alone ;
and that now, as the members of tho old
Board have becomo acquainted with the
intricacies of their position, and the pub
lic arc beginning to be satisfied with a
faithful and impartial performance of du
ty, those same powers will hesitate a while
before they oust men of experience, and
replace them wi th men of no experience
at all.
From what we know of the men named
in connection with positions on the Board,
we believe them all to be honorable, high
minded men, men who would do the best
they know how to aid the Government iu
its difficulty. But that best would be but
little, iu view of their inexperience, and
would rather tend to embarrass than to
aid in the work they would be called up
on to perform. From present indications
we infer that the need of Enrollment
Boards will soon pass away that the at
tention of men will soon be turned to
peaceful pursuits; what need therefore of
changing present arrangements, that are
working so beneficial to all concerned save,
I crhaps, substitute brokers and bounty
jumpers. Evcu though the war should
continue, who so well qualified to carry
through all the ramifications of the draft,
as those who have grown with the growth
of the system and strengthened with its
strength whose experience, in short,
both in the carrying out the directions of
the Enrollment law, and in bearing the
abuse aud curses growing out of it, cou
stitutc them full graduates in the school
of the draft ? We arc satisfied that tho
masses do notdesiro a change, and we arc
just as well satisfied that the interests of
the service do not demand it ; and wc
hope that those who have power in th
matter will refuse to make an' change.
In connection with positions on the
Board we have heard the following names
mentioned.
For Provost Marshall, Samuel Weth
erill, Owen Luckenbach and Silas C
Cook, of Northampton ; E. Haliday, oi
Pike; and A. B. Walker, of Wayne.
For Commissioner, Wm. N. Drake, of
Northampton.
For Surgeon. Samuel Sandt, M. D..
of Northampton. -
Wc must confess that we cannot but
marvel at the intense modesty of the Pa
triots of Mother Northampton, displayed
on every occasion when loaves and fishes
are supposed to be about to be doled out
In this mere matter of Enrollment Board
changes there are just two teats too few
for the five hungry mouths ready to re
ccive them, even should a general sweep
be decided upon. . But wc have no idea
that any change will be made. It cer
tainly will not be, if the interests of .the
service and the wishes of those who do
not seek office, are consulted.
-Our neighbor of the Milford Eagh
need have no fear that we are "inclined

with our brethren of the Press wc are
emphatically for Peace, and hence gen

those brethren step out of the bounds of

wc generally venture to give them a little
sage advice, in hopes that they may there
by be induced to mend their ways, aud
treat us, at least, as we endavor to treat

we did not ask our neighbor "to say that
Mr. Wolf is in no way connected with
the Jeffersoaian, and in no maimer re

we merely informed him that we were the

One occupying a less garrulous platform
than that choseu by our neighbor, would
have seen at once, that we merely insinu
ated a desire that Mr. Wolf should b

The Suspension Bridge over the Dcla-

on Saturday last, and it seems miraculous
that a number of lives were not lost by
accident. There was on the bridjre, at
the time it fell, two loaded teams with
their drivers, aud three foot passengers,
all of whom were precipitated into the
water below. Mr. Dunlap, one of the
teamsters, was seriously injured. The
rest saved themselves by clinging to the
broken ice, and swimming to the shore,
and escaped with but slight injury.
lwo of the horses were drowned, the o-
thcrs succeeded in reaching the shore.
The fall was caused .by the giving way
of one ot the Cables on the Shohola side

loss of this bridge will be seriously felt
by the inhabitants of Shohola, Barryrihe

What Would they Say.
If the first settlers of our country,
Could look upon it, in our day,
These times of steam and telegraphs,
I wonder what they'd say 1
Could they look upon the temples,
And halls of learning grand,
IVhich neither few nor far between,
Now decorate the land.
Could they hear the young descanting 1 '
On things they deemed to be,
Almost beyond the reasoning powor, ' "
Of grave paternity, : ', .t
Could they sec the sombre garments
Of the women of their day,
Displaced by costly fabrics,
Rich, elegant and gay, . ..
Which our fair maids and matrons wear, -I
wonder what they'd say.
On men, I'm sure, approvingly,
They'd be induced to smile,"
Could they see them decked in tasteful roW
Like those produced by Pyle.
I have just placed on my counters a splen
did assortment of Boy's and Childern's Cloth
ing for winter wear, to which the attention
of the public is particularly invited.
