i?i9 poicer conferred 'vpon it by the Con
stitution, to have been dull elected, re
turned and qualified for a seat therein.
When this shall have been done the
govern merit will have been restored to
its integrity, the Coustitulion of the Uni
ted States will have been re-established
in its lull supremacy, and the American
Uuiou will have again become what it was
designed to be by those who formed it, ji
sovereign nation, composed of separate
States, each, like itself, moving in a distinct
and independent sphere, exercising pow
ers defined and reserved by a common
Constitution, and resting upon the assent,
the confidence and co operation of all the
States and all the people subject to its
authority. Thus reorganized and restor
ed to tlrcir constitutional relations, the
.States and the general government can en
ter in a fraternal spirit, with a common
purpose and a common interest, upon
whatever reforms the security of personal
right?, the enlargement of popular liber
ty, and the perfection of cur republican
institutions may uemanu.

It is decidedly the best show traveling.

A very neat auJ exciting game of liasc
Ball, between the 1st 9 of the Belvidere
Club and 1st 0 of the Stroudsburg Club,
was played in this borough, on Monday,
on the grounds of the latter. The con
test was a friendly cac and resulted in a
tie SS to 33.
A meetiug of the friends of Gen. Gea

Democratic Convention, for thi:
County, met in the Court House on Sat
urday last ana appointed l'eter Gilbert,
Lie ford M"arsh, and James Place, Con
gressional Conferees, without instructions.
Conferees favorable to the nomiuation of
Charlton Burnet as the caudinate for
State Senator were appointed.
Major Win. K. llavilaud, addressed
the "Boys in Blue" at their Club room,
ia the Odd Fellows' Hall, on ' Monday
evening last. The speech was Union and
Geary all over, and should have had a
lEore general hearing. There arc few
more pleasant and effective speakers than
Major Haviland.
JGgrThe friends of Geary and the LTn
ion, will meet at Biukervilie, in Jackson
township, on Saturday evening next, to
complete the formation of a Geary Club.
It would be well if the friends in the other
townships of the county woull emulate
the example set by the sturdy republi
cans of Jackson. They must do so if, af
ter the election, they would claim any
fchare cf the credit for the 40,000 Geary
majority, which Pennsylvania is sure to
give in October. Organize and be active
until the 2nd Tuesday of October, and
you can show to the world that there are
at least oue thousand staunch republican
voters in Monroe countv.

his appointment, aud have no idcubt bat
te will make an efficient post-master, as
we have endeavored to do. It has been a
matter of countcst between us, for the
last four months, as to which of us should
have the spoil. We held the inside track
untill we bolted the nauceou3, Clyuier,
copperhead dose, which had been prepar
ed for us, when Michael picked the nas
ty thing up and, having a better stomach
for. such things than we have, swallowed
it, and thu3 got ahead of us. Well, "the
world does move," and we breathe more
freely because of our experimental knowl
edge of the fact. Easton Aryus, and pa
pers of the copperhead persuasion gener
ally, will please notice.
The Portland Press says that last week
ome men fishiug for porgics off Seguin,

Among the many singular revelations
made duriug the recent trial of the royal
scaudal case in London, is one which, if
true, clears up the long disputed poini as
to the authorship of the lcttersof Junius.
They were written by Dr. Wilmot, his
grauddaughttr asserts, to obtaiu redress
from George III, who, writhing uuder
their sharp lash, was induced to sign cer
tain certificates testifying to the marriage
of Olive Y llmot and the birth of her
child. The youthful Olive made the dis
covery accidentally, when she was but 14
years old. She chanced to take from her
iraudlather s library some loose manu
scripts to scribble and draw upon, and
they were found to be some of the letters
of Junius.
