" My Policy;"
-9r, Reconstruction on Moral and Re
ligious Principles" will be the subject of
a Lecture by a Private in Blue, at the
Court-House, on Saturday evening next.
The public without distinction of party or
.sect are cordially invited to be present.
The Lecturer authorizes us to assure the
public that he will say nothing that can
hurt the feelings of any one, either mor
ally, religiously or politically.
ESU George Noble, a brakesman, on
one of the coal trains of the D. L. & W
Ulailroad, was so badly injured on Tues

"while they were in motion, that he died
within an hour after the accident. The
deceased was a residence of Dunraore, Pa.
Aaron IIoflF, son of Ira IIofF, (colored)
was run over by the cars, at Del. Water
Gap, on WeduesJay, and was almost in

Where to get Gccd Liquors.
As men always have and, in all probabili
ty, always will indulge in the "ardent," we
look upon it as a work of philanthropy, to
inform those who do indulge, "for the 6tom
.ach's sake and often infirmities," where the
toest liquors are to be obtained. Our expe
rience, not very extensive it is tru1, but
still large enough, added to the experience
of other., to justify us in giving an opinion,
is, that the very best and purest liquors
brought into this market, are those sold at
the Store of J. S. Williams &. Co. The li
ruors sold at that establishment are smooth
and pleasant to the taste, and leave none of
the unpleasant burning and after-taste al
snoet invariably following an indulgence in
liquors sold here by agents from abroad, or
supplied on orders sent to the cities. If we
must indulge, let it be in the best; and we
ere silisfled that the best can always be
obtained of Williams &. Co. Lmdlords
fchould think of this.
Church Dedication.
Our readers should not forget the dedi
cation of the " Cherry Lane" Methodist
Episcopal Church, which takes place, on
Sabbath next. Services in the morning,
at 10 o'clock, in the afternoon, at 3 o'
clock, and in the evening, at 7 o'clock.
The Rev. Dr. Hodgson, of Eastoo; the
Rev. Joseph Greggof Philadelphia, and
the Rev. Mr. lllman will conduct the ser
ices in the order in which they are nam
ed. There should be a full attendance
ot the Christian public. " Cherry Lane
Church is on the Tannersville circuit, and
lhe church building, which will be
acat and serviceable one, quite creditable
to the service for which it was erected,
was, we learn, secured to the congrcga
tion, mainly through the indefatigable ex
ertions of the Pastor in charge, the Rev
J. Chandler Ore
Insurance Against Acciden
The benefits of Insurance against ae
cidents, were made apparent to the citi
zens of our county, by an accident which
occurred to Mr. Daniel Coss, of Middle
Sniithfield township, last summer. Mr.
0. had just affected an Insurance in the
Travelers' Insurance Company, of Hart
ford,Connecticut,and of which Mr. James
Carr, Jr., of our borough, has the agen
cy, when he had his arm broken by a kick
from a horse. His case was immediately
looked after by Mr. Carr, and reported to
the company, and on his recovery, a few
weeks ago, Mr. Coss, received forty dol
lars for eight weeks that he was prevent
ed from following his business, by the ac
cident. This prompt payment should lead
our readersall of whom are liable to ac
cideot, and many of whom could illy af
ford the loss of time attendant thereupon,
to look into this Insurance business.
They will find Mr. Carr to be a perfect
gentleman in his deportment, and conscien
tiously fair in his transactions with his
fellowmen. Any information desired will
be cheerfully imparted by him whether
inquiry is made personally or by letter.
He ehould be addressed at Stroudsburg, pa.
The Senatorial Candidate
The declination, by Mr. Charles F.
Rockwell, .of the Republican Union nom
ination for Senator, has not deprived the
Union loving voters of the district of the
pleasure of voting for a true Union man
for that position. The Standing Com
mittees of the several counties composing
the district have unanimously nominated
Mr. Calvin P. Milliken, of Pike coun
ty, for the office, and we have do doubt
their recommendation will be seconded by
every Union voter. Mr. Milliken, is an
excellent business man, and his Republi
can Uuionism is as far removed from the
Copper-Johnson proclivites of his oppo
nent, as the heavens are above the earth.
His record is without spot or blemish,
and by his election the District would be
far rrore honored in the Senator, than
the man in the Scnatorship. We have
now a full ticket, with every man upon it
worthy of our best efforts for its success
Let us go to work then, Unionists, and
see if we cannot do something glorious
for it. Let us see if tc cannot badly
scotch the serpent of the pretended de
mocracy, if not really defeat it.
t& Voters of Monroe county, if you
wish to do your country a real service
if you hope to make the fruits of the
reat rebellion a blessing to yourselves
and to the generations to come after you
if you desire to eccure a peace which
will prove perpetual, and against which
the monster, Secession, will never og
dare to raise its gory head, you must vote
for William Lilly, for Congress, on
Tuesday next. A vote for Van Auken
the candidate of the Democracy, will be
a vote of approval of all that Jeff. Davis
did, and desired to do, when he made his
great thrust at the life of the nation.
The rebellion had no warmer opponent in
the North than Gen. William Lilly
and no warmer supporter than Daniel
M. Van Auken.
Voters, there are two candidates
for State Senator in the field. Rcmem
ber that wheu you go to the polls. One
of these must be your choice; and a3 you
select so will you say whether you stand
by democracy as democracy stood by your
fathers in the days of your country'
greatest peace, prosperity and happiness
or whether you stand by that despicab!
political fungus, which, in these latter
days, claims to be democrary, and which
brought war, bloodshed, devastation and
almost annihilation upon your country.
The mark of treason may be hidden from
your view by a mere patriotic cloak hast
ily thrown on, but you cannot because o
that shield yourselves from the just re
proach of patriots if you vote for Charl
ton Burnet, who stands before you as
the representative man of the principles
which hold Vallandigham, ,the Woods
Jeff. Davis, and the host of their aiders
and abetters, North and South. The tax
es under which you are now groaning,
the loss of brother, of father, and of son
which you are morning, would not have
fallen upon you but for the principles
which govern such men, and on which
they are pledged to act if they succeed in
getting into office. If you vote for Bur
net, you vote for a repetition of those
acts of dough-facedi8tn which brought on
the war, and by your vote give encour
agement for the infliction of still greater
woes upon you. Is it worth while to run
so great a risk for the purpose of securing
the more than questionable honor of be
ing able to say that you cling to the emp
ty name of Democracy? You have a
choice in the matter, and a noble choice
it is too. The real democracy of the Dis
trict that democracy, which stood by
the good old flag, and which saved the
Constitution and the laws from being
crushed under the heel of the slave oli
garchy, presents you with a candidate in
every way worthy of your choice. The
name of that candidate is Calvin P.
Milliken, of Pike county, and you can
vote for him, with the certainty of voting
tosustain the Union, and to make treason
odious bypreventing traitorsfrom fasten
ing their hellish grasp around the throatof
the Government. Mr. Milliken has
been from first to last the unflinching
supporter of his government, while his
opponent, Mr. Burnet, was among the
loudest in bawling peace at a time when
to do so was to strengthen the hands of
the cut-throats who were trying to destroy
that government. There can be no doubt
as to which man patriotism claims for
its champion, and there should be no
doubt as to which one every man who
loves his country should vote for.
Reader, the ticket for the Union,
the Constitution, and the Laws, and, con
sequently, your ticket, unless you wish to
strike hands with traitors, must hafe
on it

Remarks. We insert the above, not as a
matter of justice to the landlord at Washing
ton, because oil the evidence, as well as the
blackguardism nf Justicia, goes to show that
no injustice was done him, nor yet because
of the threat which accompanied ' the say o'
Justitia, but merely to 6how the kind of de
fense which his treatment of his guests re
ferred to affords. If the character of the
htuse is to be measured bv the character of
the defense, and by Justicia's merits as a
tlackguard, we think the ladies of the par
ty have reason to thank their stars that they
fared as well as they did, and endeavor to
to find out the character of places ihey de-
ein visiting in future. On information de-
rived from gentleman who, were guests of
the house, we spoke courteously and truth
fully of the supper. To this Justicia haa
nothing to oppose but the blackguards insin
uation of want of respectability on the part
Sf the miests. What does this amount to!
of the guests. What does this amount to!
Suppose that instead of being ladies, as they
were, they had been what Justicia insinuates,
something less than ladies, would that have
juitified the landlord in taxing ibem a din-ncr-and-supper
price for something that
less than a supper. It was thc spnrsity of
the meal that was found fault with. Bui
Justicia presents an array of broiled chicken,
plates of biscuit, bread and cold meats, &c.
Justicia is a baorder in the house and might
have seen these things at the borders table
in all their abundance; but at the excursion
table there were ladies "crying for bre.d,
and no bread in the house to give them"
nothing but the assurance of one of the ser
vam, that "the landlord wojld have hit it
if he had cooked a big mess of sour krout and
schpeck." We leave Justicia to the full en
joyment of the laurels which his production
may yield him, and assure him that our
wives, daughters and sisters have no fears
of suffering in reputation from the vitupera
tion of men of his stamp.
The democrats have manifestly lost all
hope of electing Mr. Clyuier. We so
judge from the fact that in various coun
ties they are reported to be freely offer
ing to give votes for Gen. Ccary in ex
change for votes for their candidates for
Cougrcss or tho Legislature We warn
republicans against bargains of this sort.
Tho General is certain to have margin
enough without trading other candidates
into defeat. Give every vote you have to
tho Congeessional and Legislative ticket
Dy so doing the splendor of tho coming
triumph will be doubly enhanced.
The President has a policy. So has
Gen. Grant. He recently defined it in
these words: "To ask any soldier to vote
for such a mau as Hiester Clymer (of, at
one timo, kuown disloyalty) against an
other who has served lor four years in the
Union army, with credit to himself, and
beuefit to his oountry, " is a gross insult."
