EQ The quantities of fresh pork
brought iuto town by our farmers, indi
cate that the days of home-made " sasscn

EThc new Democratic organ is said
to be almost a fixed fact. The press and
material having been purchased, i3 now
being packed preparatory to its removal
to this place. Humor insists that there
will be a union of the Democrat with the
new office, and but ouc paper published
under the charge of Stephen Holmes,
Jr., Hsci.
Mrs. Peter Doru requests us to
notify the ladies of Siroudsburg and vi
vinity, that in connection with the saloou
for gentlemen, she has opened a saloon
expressly, for the ladies, in the room in rear
of her husband's barbershop, nest door
to the bauk, where oysters and other re
freshments will be served up in superior
style, to order. The entrance to the La
dies' Saloon is by the front door adjoin
ing the bauk-building. Mrs D.'s excel
lence as a cook will prove a sure guaran
tec cf satisfaction to her lady customers.
The new engine house of the
Fhocnix Fire Company is under roof, and
workmen arc busily employed in its rapid
completion. It is a very handsome build
ing, and while it reflects credit upon
those who were instrumental in getting it
tip, and on the liberality of those whose
contributions aided in theeutcrprie, ic will
prove a real and most useful ornament to
our Court-House square.
Since our last notice of improvements,
Mr. William Wiaterrnutc has nearly com
pleted a very neat two story brick resi
dence on the west side of Academy hill.
Serious Accidents.
.Mr. James Depew, residing near the
Kising Sun, in Stroud township, in this
county, while wo: Ling on the new depot
buildiug, at Sanl Cut (GouMsboro Sta
tion), on the D. L. & W. Railroad, fell
from the scaffold, cn Monday last, and
broke cue cf his legs. The fracture is a
crious odc, and the recovery will prove a
tedious cue. Mr. D. was also injured
about the head.
Mr James Decker, an old resident of
Foxtown, near this borough, while walk
ing about a few days ago, fell and broke
one of his thigh bones. Mr. Decker is
.some eighty years of age, and being very
feeble will hardly recover from his tuis-
liap. He has always reside! in this!
neighborhood, and assisted in the build
ing of the large stone mansion House at
the upper end of Elizabeth-street, sixty
odd years ago.

well known to cur citizen?, aud each has
the sympathy of the public in his mis

Elections were held in twelve States on
"Tuesday. The contest was principally
upon Congressmen.
Delaware goes Democratic by about 500
majority. Gov. Saulsbury is re elected

gressmen and one Radical. The Senate
.and Legislature are Democratic.
New York re elects Governor Fenton,
."Republican, by about 10,000 majority.
The delegation to Congress will fce about
rthe same as before, viz: 19 Republicans
to 11 Democrats. The Legislature will
have a clear Republican majority, insur
ing the election of a Radical United States
Secator in place of Hon. Ira Harris, Re-
publicaa.
Massachusetts is Radical to the core.
"She gives Governor Rullock, Republican,
.about 70,000 majority, and returns to
Congress eleven Republican?, including
Generals Butler, Ranks and Twitchell.
New Jersey sends to Congress four Re
jiublicacs and one Democrat; a gain of
two Republican members. The Legisla

lire Republican State ticket.
In Missouri it is thought, that General
Pile has defeated John Ilogan for Con
gress in the St. Louis District.
In Illinois large Union gains arc re
foriea. j
The Bubbling Democracy.
There appears to be more trial,' trouble,
and tribulation among the hardshell De
mocracy hereabouts, just now, than ought
to afflict one band of individuals cahog
lcd together to secure the offices, merely
that they may more effectually serve the
dear people. Such running to and fro, such
cussing and caucussing, such whimper
ings and whispcriugs, such elbowing and
nudging, such finger-shaking and hand
shaking, ti;d such ngcuy of gesture gen
erally as is indulged by the orators, and
disinterested leaders of the late carapaigu,
we never did see. Nor could we account
for the mystery fur mystery it was, un
til the feline quadruped escaped from the
bag upon any hypothesis that was at all
satisfatory to us. Wc first opined that it
was the reduction of the Democratic ma
jority at the bite election, from over 2,-
000 to a few votes below that number,
but reflection satisfied us that that could
not be, as the orator Puffs of the party
the men who were worried rejoiced
over the result, and were only too glad
that they got any majority at all. We
"uesscd again and this time, that there
must be defection in the ranka of tin
;t Dre.vJ and Butter Men," over the de
lay which encompassed the distribution
of the promised rewards, now long over
due. "Wc were right in this, but only
in part, and a very small part at that, for
the men who " jincd" merely "to secure
the spoils," were but few iu nuinbef, and
now that the election is over, are account
ed insignificant in ranks so crowded with
greatness; and these few sneaked around
with their thumbs in their mouths, and
so far as we could sea were allowed no
part in the hubbub. It was the Cicero's
the allusion altogether oratorial, the De
mostheucs' the ofScials that are, both
Senatorial and judiciary, and the repre
sentatives and the Deputy Collectors that
are trying to be, who were, as the eublime
Poet says,
"Plunged in a gulf of dark despair,'
over a something which bothered us to set
a:
13ut m this, as in all the other mud-
dies in the political world, there is a day
sure to come, in which doubts are dissi
pated and mysteries removed, and that
day has come to our relievement.
Previous to the muddle's seizing upon
the hardshells, there was considerable re
joiciug iu their coup, and much cackling
as though there was "a hen on j" or, indeed
a number of hens on. The election had
twirled our neighbor, the Squire, from
the simple seat editorial to the imoortant
scat judicial, and knowing his idea o
the new " po sishun," and the incompati
bility of its occupancy with the old, and
his repeated pledges to sell out iu case o
his election, the " hard" rejoiced at the
prospect of now having things pretty
much their own way. They had labored
for some time to impose an idea of their
importance upon the dignataries of the
party abroad, and of the necessity of the
spoils being disposed of as they demand
cd; but the dignatarie3 " couldn't see it.'
There were neither oustings nor innings
of sufficient magnitude to suit them.
I 1 rue, a postmasters head was made to
fall beneath the official ax, but they had
gained nothing, and Assistant Assessors
and Deputy Collectors of the " black-re
publican" persuasion still stood as eye
sores to their hopes. They then conceived
that the rather independant manner iu
which the Squire paddled his canoe was
a drawback in their way, aud they at
once sent to Allcntown, secured the for
warding of a purchaser, and forthwith
the Democrat was articled for, and they,
of a sudden become the head and front
of the 11 Democracy of gallant Monroe,"
and the happiest set of men alive.
But how futile are all human calcula
tions. Hardly had the joy of the hards
become appreciable, ere wormwood min
gled in their cup; and lengthened risa
ges took the place of those which stulti
fied satisfaction had foreshortened. First
upon rumors' wings, and then upon the
wiugs'of startling reality, came the news
that there was a Democracy which would
not brook dictation from their Democracy,
and which presumed to try titles to their
right to the leadership. Past upon this
came the fact that a press had been pur
chased, and that if need be, war, unre
lenting warv would be waged upon their
assumptions; and then came scares, and
runnings to and fro; and all were dispi
rited, for it had come to pas3, that what
they would they could not do, and the
things they longcl for were more than
likely to pass away from them forever.
They attempted to laugh the phantom ol
a new press into ridicule, but the ghast
ly grin, which was the nearest approach
they could make to a laugh, only served
to show how sore indeed was their disap
poiutmcut. Aud then, when Allcntown
rc-callcd its countenance, and they were
left to themselves alone for encourage
mcnt, they became indeed the sorriest and
most miserable looking set of victims to
political ambition the world ever looked
upon. In the extreme agony of their
disappointment we can only tender them
our heartfelt sympathies, and encourage
them with the assurance, that, as
' While the lamp holds out to burn
The tilest sinner moy return," -
so they, if they consent to'belittle their!
aspirations, and consent for the future to
take scats at the lower cud of the Demo
cratic synagogue, may yet be forgiven,
and their persecutors induced to receive
them, and allow them to become hum
ble workers in the cause which they, il
left to themselves, would soon have run
into the ground and ruined.
Our notice of the "vagaries of the Demo
crat, two weeks ago, lias aroused our neigh
bor of the quil into a two column reply in
defense of the errors, which, in his astute
wisdom, he deemed it proper to inflict upnn
his readers. He might well have spared
himself the head work and handwork expend
cd in the reply, Tor reflection must have con
vinced even himself that what we said was
a purely charitable getting to rights of that
which he had got wrong. And he should
have been the better satisfied with our course,
because in our mode of placing him right we
followed the precedent established by him
self several years ago.and accountedby him
good, gospel law on several occasions since
For instance; in the matter of Geary's ma
jority. The Democrat set the majority at
G.OOO, and on these figures several of its
friends had made up their minds to base bets,
We corrected the figures, both verbally and
in print and, in consequence, the Democrat's
friends were saved both their tempers an
their money. And we made the corrections
genteelly, too, for we knew that the Demo
crat had been deceived by its more uuscru
pulous cotemporaries willingly deceived, it
is true, but, charitably speaking, deceived
nevertheless, and, in turn, deccivinsr. We
did not charge deception on our neighbor,
but we said the "little devil" did it, just as
he said the "little devil'' did it a few years
njro, when he recommended the hoIJinjr of
meetings to organize opposition to the draft
and was compelled to back down from the
proposition. Then the "little devil" did it
while he "was out fishing. We merely fol
lowed precedent, that's all.
And then as to frauds in the election.
Wc merely presented the proposition that
probably both parties had cheated a little at
the late election. We believe they did.
The Democrat, however,is most intemperate
ly indignant over the proposition that its
parly would cheat, and parades nearly a col
umn of vague charges ajjainst our side. It
takes good care to by the scene of its charge
in the distance, while it wholly overlook
the fact that the democratic majority of Lu
zcrne was swelled to its formidable dimen
fiions by the aid of forged naturalization pa
pers, seventeen hundred of which are alleg
ed to have been issued. Money too, the
Democrat alleges, w as employed in the cam
paign, and "New England money" at that.
For what purpose, pray! Why, 'to corrupt
voters," answers the Democrat What vo
tors Certainly not Republicans! No.no
Democrats, answers the Democrat. Wei
thank God, we belong to no such corruptibl
material ; and if we did, we think wc woul
have .sense enough to be ashamed to own it,
In a half column of tli article, the Demo
crat attempts to make much out of what w
sud comparilively alout the intelligence o
Eidred. We said nothing that we desire to
unsay on that point, and if in the same spir
it that we made the comparison, the Demo
crat desires to add the two Smithfields co
as to form a triuni? specimen of politica
prejudice and ignorance, it is at perfect liber
ty to do so. It is the boast of leading Demo
crats hereabouts, ire of the Democrat among
the rest, that merely to proclaim a man a Re
publican id enough to politically damn him
with the democracy of either tf these town
snips,anu we lliinkluatat least one prominent
democrat, who never voted any other than
the democratic ticket, a candidate at the late
election, will agree with us, that the boast
has truth for foundation. What more need
be siid in favor of tho courtesy and truth
fulness of our comparison. If we were to
attempt to reconcile all the Democrat's blun
ders, we should have but little time to at
tend to anything else.
The Democrat concludes with, as usual,
a reference to the "nigger." The article
would not have been crthodoxly democratic
without this allusion. Rut the Democrat
strips itself of a powerful lever when it eaye
that it is the object of the radical party to
inaugurate negro suffrage. We have often
been told that the Democratic party never
changes its principles, and as universal suf
frage, including the negro, is a cardinal
principle of democracy, and received the
warm support of such tried democrats as
Governors Snyder, Ilicster, Findley, Shultze,
Wolf and honest Frank Shunk, radicalism
but approximates democracy when it' sup
ports a principle w hich the latter has always
claimed as its own. Negro suffrage had no
part nor lot in the recent campaign and
hence was not a feature in republican tac
tics. When it docs come up properly, the
Democrat will be at no loss to find on
which side of the question the great Repub
lican party of the country stands
It is rumored that the sale of the
Democrat which wc announced last week
is off, Mr. Grcenawalt declining to take
charge of the establishment, with tho cer
tainty of opposition in his own party.
Wc regret his determination as from a
very limited acquaintance with him we
judged him to be a genial gentleman, and
a right clever fellow.

George Francis Train on "Whiskey.
Geo. Francis Train withdraws from the
convass as a candidate for Territorial de
legate to Congress from Nebraska, for
reasons which are thus set forth :
I am told to-day that money is wanted
for carriages to bring up the voters, and
to scatter among the beer shops and the
greggeries. Any spare money I may have
I prefer to devote to education aud Chris
tain charities. Purchasing votes debases
the franchise and demoralizes the people.
I have lectured too often for the Irish
Father Matthew societies to go back on
them by treating the voters. No wife,
no little children shall have reason to
complain of a drunkcu husband or father
on election day on may account. Whis
key is the curse of our time. It is ruin
ing our young men, and hurrying our old
men into the grave. Rich aud poor, high
and low, alike, are being destroyed under
its blighting influence. When wc have
fewer breweries, fewer distilleries, and
more Christain churches, more univer
sities, and more schools, the law courts
and the jail will be less patronized, aud
the world the better for it.
Gentlemen who claim to be thoroughly
informed about the matter, say the South
ern leaders expect the Constitutional
amendment to be ratified; that when it
shall become part and parcel of the organ
ic law most, if not all, the Southern States
will conscnttocnfranchi.se the blacks up
on condition that the disabilities imposed
by the third section are removed. It is
said South Carolina will lead the way.
The danger is that having got rid of the
penalties of the third section the South
ern constitutions would be changed so as
to exclude the blacks ajrain.
The Texas Legislature has appropria
ted 2,000, or so much of that sum as
may be necessary, for conveying the re
mains of Gen. A. S. Johnston from New
Orleans to Austin for his interment iu
the State Cemetery. A committee of one
from the Senate and two from the House
was appointed to superintend the removal
A resolution was also introduced direct
iug the Governor to enquire whether or
not Mrs. Johnston wishes to return to
Texas, and making an appropriation for
tual purpose
A member of the Yirgiuia Legislature
who, when it was rumored that General
Rutlcr was to be appointed to the com
mand of Richmond, offered a resolution
that the people bo notified to bury their
" portable property," as Mr. Wctnmick
termed it, turned out a defaulter to the
tune of fifty thousand dollars. He evi
dently buried some body's property where
the owner could uot find it. Ho is about
a fair sample of the wholo lot of mcu who
deal in that sort of stuff.
The election in this State demonstrated
to the satisfaction of the President that
neither Mr. Cowan nor the Conservatives
appointed to office upon his recommenda
tion, had influence with the people. In
consequence it seems probablo that Mr.
Cowan will be discarded, mid the Senate
relieved from tho necessity of passing on
the fate of his friends. Democratsare
likely to take their places.

Signs cf a Eeyere Winter.
Prom all quarters we hear of pheno
menas which arc generally regarded as
presages of a severe winter. For in
stance: Hives overflowing with honey ;
unusual thickness of corn' husks ad the
furs of wild beasts; the migratiou of rats
from the West to the East; and as the
season advances, we suppose there will be
added to this list of signs, the extraordin
ary stores cf nuts laid up by the squirrels.
Ho wevcr much we may feel disposed to
smile at such omens and leave them to
the credence of the ignoraut, in view of
the venerable antiquity of faith reposed
iu them, they arc in some degree respec
tablo, aud it would be well for even the
most incredulous to be prepared for a se
vere winter.

REDUCTfQfi 1?4 PRICE
OF THE
AMiifCM WATCHES,
MADE AT .WALTHAM, MASS,
In consequent of the recent great decline
in gold and s.lvcr and all the materials used
in the manufacture of our goods, and in an
ticipation of a still further decline, we have
reduced our prices to as low a point as they
can Le placed
With Gold at Par,
so that no one need hesitate to buy a watch
now from the expectation that it will b
.cheaper at some future time. The test of
ten years and the manufacture and sale of
Mora than 200,000 Watches,
have given our productions the very higheit
rank among timekeepers. Commencing with
the determination to make thoroughly excel
lent watcher, our business h'as steadily in
creased as the public became acquainted
with their value, until for months together,
we have been unable to supply the demand.
We have repeatedly enlarged our factory
buildings until they now cover over three
acres of ground, and give accommodation to
more than eight hundred workmen.
Wc are fully justified in stating tliat va
now make MORE THAN ONE-HALF OF

HOW OFTEN WE HEAR EXPRES
son from persons reading advertise
ments of Patent Medicines, and in nine cases
out often they may tc right. Il is over 13
years since I introduced my medicine, th
Venetian Liniment, to the public. I had1
no money to advertise it, so I kit it for sale
with a few druggists and storekeepers through,
a small section of the country, many taking
it with great reluctance; but I told them to
let any one have it," and if it did not do all
I stated on my pamphlet, no one need pay
for it. In some stores two or three bottle
were taken on trial by persons present. I
was, by many, thought crazy, and that wouli
be the last they wcu'd see of me. Cut I
knew my medicine was no humbug. In clout
two months I began to receive orders for
more Liniment, some calling it my valuable
Liniment, who had refused to sign a receipt
when 1 left it at their store. Now mv ales
ore millions ot bottles yearly, and "all fut
cash. I warrant it .superior to any ether
medicine for the cureofCroup, Diarrhe a, Dy
sentery, Colic, Vomiting, Spasms, and Sea
sickness, as an internal remedy. It is Fcr"
