Winterish.
Snow fell atNaglesville, on Friday last.
This looks as though winter was after us.
We wrn'd call attention to the advertise
ment of Mr. C, B, Keller, in this week's pa
per. Charley has everything- in the Boot,
Shoe, Leather and Finding' line that can It
desired, anJ his prices arc such that every
body can buy a first rate article at a very
low figure.
XX Peter "Williams, a fow days
ag3; presented us with eight turuips,
raised by Mr. Jacob 11. Fetherman, of
Hamilton, which weighed as follows: one
7 J lbs., one G lbs., one 5 J lbs., three 5 lbs.
each, one 4 lbs., and one 3 lbs., making
sn aggregate weight of forty-one pouuds.
Who can beat those monsters?
Mr. Nicholas Rustcr has just ad
ded to bis former complete stock of goods,
a full assortment of new and fashionable
!yles of Hats, Caps, Furs, ready-made
Clothing, &c. Nicholas does not intend to
make the " fur fly"but will continue, as
heretofore to sell his goods at the lowest
f.os.sil'a rates. If bargains are wanted,
lluster's is the sure place at which to se
cure them.
Wc have lately been in the rcgu
lar receipt of the Fusion Daily Express,
cne of the neatest and most readable of
the iuland dailies published. Within a
lew days wc observe that it has assumed
a quarto form; and dressed in its new
type and edited with its marked ability it
lias really become an honor and an orna
ment to the embryo city of Easton. May
the shadow of friend Davis and his daily
ectct grow Ices.
Accident.
As Mrs. Win. Drodhcad, of the Water
Gap, hersistcr, Mrs. Davis, of Faston, and
others were about taking a ride in a car
riage, on Thursday last, tha horses became
frightened and ran away, throwing both
ladies from the vehicle, and, wc regret to
ay, so seriously injuring Mrs. Davis that
a physician had to be called in. Her
collar bone was found to be broken, and
l.e received ether injuries Wc arc
ple;cd to learu that she h rapidly im
proving. XC Mr. Joseph Heller, of Fcnners
vill?, a few days ago, met with a very
ferious los3 in his Pork. lie had a loto!
fish salt on hand, and thinking to do
lw3 hogs a kindness ordered lm boy
to throw it into the swill barrel; the
result was that five of his hogs, worth in
she aggregate over one hundred dollars,
tlied from eating the salted swill. He
bad twelve hogs in the pen, all of which
were more or less affected, but seven of
.them arc in a fair way of recovery. This
.fctiould serve as a warning to others.
Humors are njxaia rife of. the start
ing of a new copperhead organ in this
county. It is even said that the mate
rial has already been purchased, and that
ihe new concern will shortly make its ap
pearance. The news causes blue looks iu
Foaie quarters, while in others there are
ll the evidences of rejoicing over the
prospects of both sides of the Democracy
.having a chance to "speak out iu meet
ing." Heretofore the Jwlye has held,
rather tyrannically wc thought, all the
various opinions of the copperhead per
suasion in obcyaocc to his own. Well,
Jet her " wcnlilate." Wc Republicans
have co fears of the result.
Biiih of Dr. Barnes.
It is with feelings of extreme regret that
we record the death of Dr. H. R. Barnes
cf Shawnee, in this county, which occurred
in Philadelphia on Saturday last. Tiie Dr.,
a few weeks ago, look a trip to Columbus,
Miesiss:ppi,to visit some friends a t that place,
end was on his way home, when he w.isat
tacked with Cholera which re.-ul'ad in his
death. He was met on the streets of Piula
delphia on Friday Jast, by one of our citizens.
to whose inquiry as lothe state of his health
he replied that he felt quite well. Shortly
after the fell destroyer seized hold of him,
and on Saturday his friends in th:s county
were startled by the announcement that he
was dead. The Doctor was a young man.
whose gentlemanly deportment and kindness
of heart drew man friends around him. He
'.had been in practice less thai: three years,
but eren in that short time his success in the
.treatment of diseases gave indubitable evi
dence that emin-nce is his profession was
the go-il at which he would certainly have
arrived if life and health Jiad been spared
him. But he has'beervcntclown in the morn
ing of his days, and friends ean but sincere
ly regret that a life which promised so much
of usefulness could not have been longer
spared. His remaing were iirterred at Bath,
Northampton county, PaM tlx, pi ace of hit
nativity, on Tuesday 'last.
Funeral services, iu commemoration of the
!eath of Dr. Barnes, will le held in the
Presbyterian Church, at.-fcbawnee, at half
;pat 10 o'clock on Sabbath morning next.
The Championship. &c.
On Saturday last, the Stroudsburg
Base-Ball Club, played the Sawkill Club,
ofMilford, tho third and decisive game
of the " match," which has been iu course
of settlement between the two clubs for
some weeks past. The result, with the

" home-runs," and all the other et cetera
of the att and mysteries of a scientific

Of course wc were not there ounclf.
Our business demands are such that we
dare not venture away from home for any
thing short of the pressing demands of
business abroad ; but we were represent
ed, and for all the shortcomings and long
comings of this " mere-mention" of what
was seen, heard and did on the occasion,
our representative alone is rcponniblc.
Ilis version of the affair is, that
We (meaning himself and those who
were with hiui of course), left Strouds
bur";, at about half-past two, 1. 31., on
I rilay, and alter a pleasant rido, over one
tif the best roads to be found any where
l-1c on this " Universal airth." arrived at
the 4t Dike County House," in Miiford, at
half-past eight o'clock, P. M., where we
were greeted by a number of the Saw kil
lers most cordially, and, iu about the
ijuickest tiite imusaginxble, were inform
ed by the, to hungry iren, agreeable sound
of the gong, that supper awaittd a trial
of our sharpened appetites. To the t
ble we went aud such a table! If the
landlord himself had ben of our hungry
party he could net better have provided
for our wants. Fvery thing necessary
was there, and every thing was got up in
a style that showed conclusively that' the
kitchen department was presided over by
a genious, which even Mocsier Blot him
self might envy. Like harvester?, with
the ripened graiu before them, we set to
work, and if the field was not well glean
ed, hungry men need never, by knife aud
fork performance, hope to draw applause
from the cook. ' The tabic was not swept
clean of the good things of earth; but it
would have been if the landlord's heart
had not been more liberal than a fast of
six hours, sharpened by a merry ride
through a bracing air, proved exacting.
Supper over, a luctous cigar and a per
ambulation, by moonlight, came next iu
order; and iu the beautiful views which
met his gaze the sojourner was well re
paid for the pains, the trials and the dan
gers of getting there. Miiford m most
pleasantly located on a bench of table land,
about a mile in width and about three
'juarters of a mile iu length along the Del
aware river. A prettier spot for a village
could hardly be imagined; and the den
izem of the burg, feeling that they too
have a duty to jerl'nrtn, are rapidly mak
ing it an earthly paradise amid the rough
surroundings by which it is encompassed
It is not our intention to indulge in - in
vidious particularizition relative to the
cnterprizc of the Milfordunians, for all are
working to secure a common eud the
beautifying of ihe town; hut wc must be
permitted to say that Dr. Halliday would
prove a jewel to any town, and the Pin
shots, the Dimniicks, the Mots, the
Barnes's, and a host of others whoe names
e would mention if we knew them, dc
ervc lasting credit for the liberality of
their efforts to give 31ilford a name and
a lame throughout the land. As yet, it
ip ay aptly Le called, as llandolph, of llo
anukc, called the city of Washington, a
viija-c of magnificent distances;" but
the spirit of enterprise is there which will
soon make Miiford the compact, thriving
borough, aud the town of beauty,"
which to its inhabitants, and to visitor,
will prove " a joy fur ever." We speak
ofMilford by moonlight, but a view bv
daylight leaves us nothiog to gainsay that
we have saiJ.
The perambulation, during which the
" inner man was slightly attended to, at
length came to an cud, aud we returned
to the hotel to court the aid of Morpheus
in an cfTort to overcome the weariness
which the journey had created. And
here again the peculiar fitness of Mine
Host of the "Pike County House" for his
position, stood out in bold relief. The
cleanliness of his chambers, and tho ex
cellcncc of his beds all attested that " the
right man was in the right place." Once
in bed, we closed our eyes and our thou 'hts
over the plerplexities of life, and were
about bidding sidicu to wakefulness,
when the sound of inusirt struck our ear,
and the midnight serenade loomed up in
the dulcit strains of " Launagarrs Ball,"
and "There is Sweet Kent," &c, &c
On it came, nearer and nearer to our
juarters, until ut length our room door
burst open and a choir of voice, wholly
masculine in initiation, filled the space
with sweetness. Fxperience is worth
something, thought we, and dosing our
eyes we feigned sleep 8o admirably, that
" the old man" was not disturbed even
by the tempting fumes which issued from
the sombre looking, tubular instrument
in the hands of its bearer. It was a com
fortable after-reflection to u, that we!
were in Miiford, where gray hairs com
mand respect and 44 old meu" are per
mitted to slumber on undisturbed by the
hilarity of more youthful years. The sell
of the choristers was complete, though we
must confess that if we had recognized the
44 Spirit of Kye," iu the crowd, we would
hardly have slumbered eo soundly. A1
carnage rid by moonliglit HosbJ Ihe
proceedings of the day, and all went to
bed to be up by times, iu readiness for
.the game of the morrow.
Saturday morning opened the way to
much speculation as to the probable qual
ity of the weather, in a base-ball poiut of
view. There were streaks of clear sky
observable, but there were also porteu
tious clouds, which threatened to dampen
the ardour of the contestants; Neither
Sttoudsburgers, nor Sawkillcrs, both of
whom were about in plentiful numbers
by the first peep of day, could exactly
settle the point to their perfect satisfaction.
By breakfast time, however, nature came
to the rescue, and a full grown shower
made bright faces blue, and placed the
probabilities of the coutest at a discount;
and oft repeated, and earnest, were in
quires as whether the wind set in from
the North, the South, the East or the
West. Nature again, however, came in
(he rescue, and by ten o'clock the storm
had spent its fury, the clouds broke
away, aud glorious sunshine illuminated
both the laudscapc, and th; faces of all,
and all were, who were anxious to see the
game go on. At ouce the clubs, accom
panied by their friends repaired to the
ball grounds; and splendid grounds they
were too level as a barn floor, and just
the spot wc would have chosen for "our fel
ler:," in a friendly way to 44 flax out" the
other " fellers" on. At quarter past clcv
en, A. M., game was calld, when 44 our
Tellers" went to the bat and visa-versied
with the 4othr fellera," until nine in
nings had been gone through with, with
the result as given above. We have wit
nessed quite a number of similar contests,
but we must say that wc never witnessed
one in which good feeling so completely
held sway among the contestants. A
lovely feature of the field, was the pres
ence of a number of representatives of
the beauty of Miiford s beautiful daugh
ters, who seemed to be not the least inte
rested of the spectators.
After the match was decided we re
tired from the field to the Pike County
Mouse, when, after partaking of a most
excellent diuner, and a spoonful or two
of the "ardent, meiely to keep us warm
by the way, we started for the goodly bor
ough of Stroudsburg. which place we
reached in safety at about 10 o'clock, P.
M. It was a delightful trip all' around ;
and among our companions of the trip we
have heard but one expression 44 we
had a bully time." Tor oursclf aud
the club we say, commend us to the Saw-
killers, to Mine Host Bull, and to all who
contributed in the least to our comfort or
rdeasure as well as to Miiford as a glori
ous place to visit Among the Sawkillers,
wc can draw no distinctions their names
are in the list of nines,' and every single
nine is a host in himself, in all that con
stitules the right jolly good fellow. And
if, in the lapse of time another match
should be made up between the Sawkill
ers and the Stroudsburgers, may we be
there to see and enjoy and may Mine
Host or the Pike County House minister
to our wants.

Scarcity of Labor in the Weak
Many of ihe Western journals are com
plaining of the scarceity of labor in that
Hection, and a day or two agnwe quoted
the Springfield (111-) State Kegister as an
authority that in that city laborers re
ceivc $1 a day, stonecutters and masons
515, plasterers 31 50, carpenters and
pa i liter S3 50 ; yet even these prices do
not attract working men to the West. It
is argued that labpring people can save
more money in the West than they can
iu the Eastean cities, owing to the much
higher prices of the necessaries of life
prevalent on tho Atlantic seaboard.

Colored Jurymen in Boston.
The Boston Commonwealth says: "It is
an interesting fact, and an evidence of
the progress of the age toward equal
rights for all, white and black, that in thc
Superior Court of this county for crimi
nal business there is, this term, one col
ored juryman, aud the Superior court for
civil business, urst session, one, ana in
the second session of the same court there
are two. No objection is made to them ;
but, on the contrary, it is said they are an
improvement on many white persons here
tofore drafted for this purpose. This is
the first term of these courts where col
ored men have been put on the juries, al
though in a rcceut term of the Supreme
court, iu a trial for murder, as wc have
recorded, there was one who served."
Unclaimed Fractional Currency.
Treasurer Spinner desires persons who
have forwarded packages of mutilated
fractional currency to the Treasury De

ceived no communication from the De
partment, announcing the receipt of the
package and inclosing the amount of the
sum forwarded, to address a letter as be
fore, stating distinctly the amount for
warded, the date of transmittal, and the
name and post office address of the wri
ter. The officers of the Treasury may
thus be enabled to identify a large num
bcr of packages now in their possession,
the forwarders of which neglected to state
their names or post offices.

REDUCTION IM PRICE
OF THE
AMERICAN WATCHES, .
MADE AT WALTHAM, MASS,
In consrtpient of the recent great declne
in gold and s lver and all tho materials used
in the manufacture of our go. d?, and in an
ticipation nf a still further decline, we have
reduced our prices lo as low a point as they
can be puced
With Gold at Par,
60 that no one need hesitate to buy a watch
now from the expectation tht it will b
cheaper at some future time. The test of
ten yeara and the manufacture and sale of
More Uian 200,000 Watches,
have given our productions the verj highe
rank amonsr timekeepers. Commencing with
the deteimination to make thoroughly excel
lent watches, our business lias tteadily in
creased as the juLlic Icc.ime .-icqvi.nnJed
with their value, until for n.onihs togrther,
we have been unable tt rupply. th ; oemand.
We have repeatedly .r.larged our factory
bnildii'gs until they row covr over three
acres of ground, and g.ve accommodation to
more than c ght hundred workmen.
We are fut'v justified in stating that we
now make MORE Til AN ONE-HALF OF
ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE
UNITE!) STATES. 'I he different gradea
are distinguished by the following trade
