Wild Cherry Balsam.
The memory of Dr. "Wistar is embalm
ed in the hearts of thousands, whom his
Dalsam of "Wild Cherry has cured of
coughs, colds, consumption; or some other
lorui of Pulmonary disease. It is now
over forty years since this preparation
wiis brought before the public, and yet
the demand for it is constantly increasin
EGuVc learn that a very serious and
melancholy accident, by which three lives
were lost, occurred on the railroad near
Scranton on Monday last. A portion of
the tract giving way, a coal train was
thrown down an embankment some sixty
feet into Roaring Brook, causing a gcu-
eral smashing of cars and the loss of life
iibctc stated.
Court commenced at this place on
Mouday lust, with all the Judges on the
.Bench. The Grand Jury was organized
by the appointment of Benjamin V. Bush)
us foreman. The charge of the Court,
prepared in view of the important case to
ccuie up for trial, was a very able one,
nnd gave a fair and impartial indication
of the duty of Grand and Petit Jurors in
the premises. . After the dispatching of
ij-Tcliminary business, the Court proceeded
1o the trial of the Carbon Co. Rape case.
.The Defendents in the case arc, Alexan
der Gould, II. Mcckes, and Wni. Ack
erson, who are ably defended by lion
John D. Stiles, of Allentown, Geu.
Charles Albright and Whitesell,
f M-uch Chuuk, and S. S. Dreher,
Ksq , of Stroudsburg. The Common
wealth is represented by S. Holmes, Dis
trict Attorney, and Wra. Davis, Bsq , of
Stroudsburg, and E. J. Fox, Esq., of
Easton. At the time of our going to
jresa the trial is still progressing. The
Jurors, except those engaged in the trial,
were discharged on Tuesday morning.
The Democratic brethren of this coun
ty, held an anxious meeting, at the Court
JIou;-5, on Monday evening last. The
'siiectiag was presided over by Peter Mer
it ine. ir., who was assisted by. the usual
cumber of Vice Presidents and Secreta
ries, among the latter of whom was our
amiable friend, the Assistant Assessor for
the 5th Div., 11th Dist., Pa. The meet
insr was a most melancholy one. The
frosts of the many defeats which the par
ty has suffered within the last seven years,
have so deadened the party's followers
jhat the participators in the meeting ap
peared more like frozen men than like
sncn through whose reins coursed a blood
-vitalized by the least hope of success.
There was an evident desire, on the part
of the leaders, generaled by the "worthy
chairman of the Standing Committee, to
et up a show of enthusiasm ; but every
attempt, that way, onded in a smile so
ghastly that even the brethren looked at
each other in araasement which was no
-what relieved by the coppcrish hue which
tinted the meeting and its proceedings.
The lion. John D. Stiles of Allentowo,
E. J. Fox, Esq , of Kaston, and "the wor
thy chairman of the-Standiug Committee
of this county," John B. Storm, Esq, la
bored earnestly and eloquently, but iu
f pite of all their earnestness and elo
quence, enthusiasm was at a discount;
and the unconcerned spectator was more
and more impressed with the belief that'
he had stumbled upon a wake, at which
.where gathered the mourners aver the
corpse of the defunct and rotten Democ
racy, who would not be comforted be
cause they could not be, and of whom our
.other amiable friend, he of the Monroe
J)anocral, was the chief. After giving
listless attention to the speakers, the meet
ing selected Charles S. Dctrick, Esq , to
meet the mourning brethern from the oth
.er counties of the State, at Ilarrisburg,
.and go through the motions of nomina.
ting a Democratic candidate for the Su
preme Bench. Taking it altogether, the
meeting furnished the best possible evi
dence of the truthfulness of the assertion
of the Charlotte ville (Va.,) Chronicle,
that "the Democracy, as a party, is play-
A Brilliant and Patriotic Scheme.
The rroiect lately 'started by a num
ber of proruineut and patriotic geutlemcn
to erect on the battlcbelJ of Oettysuurg
a permanent home for invalid or crippled
Luion soldiers ot the Jtebemon, is tics
tined to prove a complete success. The
scheme, which is a very feasible one, and
which will ba 'earned out strictly and
faithf ully, is simply this : Although the
erection of a liomc lor invalid soldiers
meets with the cordial approbation of cv
ery one, the State Legislature did Dot feel
itscli in a position to make the necessary
opr ropraition to establish such an mstitu-
tiou, Lut in lieu thereof passed a Lin ou
- - ... . . Ml
the Gth of March last, granting power to
the corporators named therein to raise
the required amouut by means ot a graud
cut distribution.
It becoming known that certain parties
in New York had, duriug the Ucbellion,
Durchased a larirc number of diamonds
r u -
and precious stones, measures were taken
to secure them, ana certain parties au
vanccd the money for their purchase.
Certificates valued at five dollars each wil
le issued, and the holder will not only
contribute to a national atW commendable
enterprise, but will also have a direct in
tercst in the distribution of these magni
ficent jewels. The princely gifts are
now on exhibition at No. ll'JG Chestnut
street, and daily viewed by hundreds of
our citiicns.
The management of the great enter
prise has been confided to able and ex
pciicnoed hands, and there is not the
fcliehtest doubt that the entire scheme
will be consummated to the perfect satis
faction of everybody interested. The site
selected for the erection of the Home, and
which consist of the piece of ground used
as General Mead a headquarters durin
battle of Gettysburg, has already been
purchased, and it now only remains for
our citizens to come lorwara cn masse
and purchase shares for the grand distri
butiou, to insure a comfortable home for
invaled soldiers, where they will be car
ed for at no cost themselves. The pro
ject has met with some oppositiou in cer
tain quarters where its character and pro
visions have not been thoroughly under
stood ; but the projoctors hold themselves
rcspousible for the faithful performance
of everything they guarantee in the pub
lished propectu.
The sale of certificates has already com
menced; and the indications are that the
80,000 subscribers required to complete
the first distribution will be obtained
in
a very short time. As the people through
out the country went with great readiness
into tlie Crosby Opera House speculation
a scheme solely for personal aggraudize
ment, still greater inducements are pre
sented to subscribe to the Gettysburg
Asylum, the success of which will secure
a happy home for thousands of cripple
soldiers.
A New Scourge-Whole Fields of Grain
Destroyed by Pigeons.
From the Dubuque Jhrahl.
We learn from reliable sources that the
farmers of many of the western counties
arc much troubled with riireons. In fact
these birds have become a pcfect scourge
Vast flocks have made their appearance
the air in many places being literally
darkened, and having migrated a Ion;:
distance from the South are very vora
cious. These flocks alight upon the fields
of new. sown grain, and rolling over and
over like the waves of the sen, pick up
every kernel of gram in sight. It is im
possible to drive them away. They are
unmindful of the firing of guns, throwing
of stone?, shouting of men, or barking ol
dogs, and it is an easy task to kill any
number of them witha pole. One farmer,
residing two miles east of Independence,
had sowu three acres of wheat, and was
preparing to harrow it in, when pigeons
made their appearence and gobbled up
every kernel before he could get it co
vered. Some Gelds containing forty acres
were absolutely covered with pigeons, and
. k
altnou"b tlie sportsmen wajicd an inces
sant warfare against them, and killed
great numbers, their places were soou sup
plied with others. Hunting pigeons has
lost the charm of novelty, and the main
question is now to save the grain. With
the present high price of seed wheat, and
its scarcity, this becomes a question of
ser.ous consideration.
Our great men are restless, moving,
roaming over the face of the earth. Gen.
Butler ha3 been to the West, Senator
Wilson is in the South, Gen. Sherman is
going te the East, and Mr. Seward has
but recently returned from a strawberry
phnic in Walrussia. Mr. Colfax has

Senator Sherman has gone to Europe, and
Admiral Farragut is going. Judge Kelly

Mr. Jack Bogcrs having lately left Wash
ington for New Jersey, has really done
as-' much traveling as the public had a
right to expect. A party of our Congress
man arc going to the plains to shoot at

equaled by the pedestrian who made a
thousand miles in a thousand hours, ac
tually traveled all the way from his home
to the State capital Gen. Grant has not

enough o? travel when he went with the

Deaths in New York last week, CO,
Jin. Editor: Since the editor of the
Monroe Democrat has had the kindness
to give us so flattering an introduction to
the public, as h did in his last week's
ournal, we feel called upon by common
courtesy, to do as mucn iormm. ne
regret, however, that our friend appears
to be not well pleased with the length ot
the hort puff we gave him iu the Jeffer-
svnian two weeks since, but we shall en
deavor to make up for that neglect this
time.
So Mr. Public: allow us to introduce to
your kindness and consideration Mr. A.
O. Greknwald, Editor and Proprik:
tor or the Monroe Dkmocrat, and
Assistant ' Superintendent of the
Lutheran Sabbath-school, recently organ
ized in this place.
Permit us, in the first, place to expaci-
ate slightly, buttruthf ully, on his editorial
dealings and capacity. hen he first
came in our midst, we expected great
things from him. Our credulity had
been so much imposed upon as to lead us
to believe that we should find iq said edi
tor,, both a man and journalist who
would prove to be a useful and pleasant
acouisitiou- to our place. But we have
waited uutil recently for something to
turn up to demonstrate his editorial great
ness. When lo! the first thing he does
indicative of startling capacity, Ls the
publication of a private manuscript, in
tended for no eye but his own. This he
obtainod of us in the following manner :
He, though comparatively a Btraager
among us, had the week previous pub
lished a silly and impertinent coramuni
cation from an irresponsible source, re
fleeting on us and others, and, said yet
unestablished editor, writhing under the
smart of public condemnation, was anx
ious to give us room to reply. He want
ed our article before wc had time to write
it. and put it in shape for publication. Wc
iu formed him that we had only sketched
our reply, and it would therefore be nec
essary for us to re-write and correct it
He then informed us that that would be
unnecessary as wc could correct the man
uscript by adding marginal notes and in
terltneations, and complete the corrections
after it was in type, and thus the article
would be as correct as if rc-written, and
much timo saved to him and trouble
avoided by us. Trustinar to the editor's
honor (for we arc apt sometimes to lean
on a broken reed), we yielded to his cn
treaty. Accordingly wheu the proof was
struck off, wc went into the office, and the
editor and myself read it over carefully
aud corrected it between us one holding
the proof and the other the manuscript
We found there were seven or eight er
rors of orthography in the manuscript,
when it first was handed over to the edi
tor, which errors wc detected in the pro-
and corrected. Thus the matter was ar
ranged every way agreeably to us both
and so it remained uutil he, said editor
was compelled, as he said, to publish
company communication signed 44 Smith-
field; when said company, being hi;
master, ordered said editor to publish no
thing more from us; and he therefore re
fused to let us be heard any further
through his columns, as we had a ri"ht
to be, and would have been allowed by
any honest and impartial editor.
then comprehended his trickery, and also
his connection with the "fcmithficld
Land, and asked toe editor what was
meant by the allusion made by " Smith-
field to the trouble given the editor to
make our article appear as well as it
did. When said editor had the audac
ity to inform us that he had corrected
several of our sentences, and after some
hesitation (for it would appear that he
had some idea of what was honorable
even if he had not so acted) he said that
one of the 44 Smithficld" company had been
in his office and impudently picked up
the manuscript and read it, and seeing
the many additions and corrections, sup
posed he, the editor, had made theui.
We told him at once he had corrected
none of our sentences. .lie asserted he
had. We then told him that could be
easily proved, by producing the manu
script, which wo demanded. Instead,
however, of producing tho manuscript
and thereby satisfactorily scttliug that
question, he informed us he had 4 burned'
it. He subsequently told another gen
tleman that he would republish the man
uscript, but he thought he had4 burned it,
and still another that he could not find it.
But now like the fabled Phoenix it seems
to have risen from its own ashes: and in
stead of having seven or eight errors as it
proved to have, when we gave it to the
editor, those errors have been increased
in passing through his clean and fruit
ful hands to no fewer than fifty-five, that
is to say, according to this learned editor's
hypercritical, puerile estimate of gram
matical accuracy. It will be seen by the
foregoing that the manuscript in question
contained but seven or eight errors iu
spelling, and that those were subsequently
corrected in the proof, by the editor and
myself, according to his own arrangement.
The word " Johuny," however, is an ex
ception. I hat word In our article as first
published was spelled incorrectly, but un
fortunately for this self sufficient editor,
in what he affirms is a true copy of our
manuscript, it is spelled correctly. He
seems to have no rogard to method, but
lets everything to chance.
Ave ask in the name of honesty and
propriety, what right had, or, has this
editor, even to satisfy his own spleen, to
ignore tho corrections made in the manu
script. 1 hey were as much ours as any
other portion of the article; and wo as
sert that no honest, honorable editor or
man could or would do it even if he
had the yiuajincss to publish aj'ivate pa
per.
1 he most amusing and strangest fea
ture in the case is, that this edftor in his
would-be criticism on the manuscript in
question, has committed about five gram
matical errors to our one, as any one at
all acquainted with the English language
will readily discover by rcterring to said
criticism. Said editor haviog committed
over twenty errors in grammar,' while
what ho represents to be a true copy of
our article iu manuscript, shows ua to bo
really guilty of but three or four, and two
of these mada so by accidentally leaving a
letter off atllie Cnd of two words.. What
more need we say to this man's editorial
capacity-txxA - honor. But we wilt add
that in looking over the paper m wuicu
the would-be criticism appears, in a para
graph, editorial article, not an iuch long.
wo uqa twq errors m spelling. i uuiu n.
not be well for this strange oditor, to stop
publishing private, burnt, manuscripts.
and give his attention to correcting - his
own. bad grammar, and pruning his clum
sily written articles;and would it not be
well for him before ho attempts to rebuKe
others for bad spelling, to learn to spell
confectioner y and corner correctly?
After his recent display of grammati
cal wisdom, who wonders why he did not
conduct the exercise in grammar, to which
he had been appointed, and of which he
accepted, in the Monroe County Teachers'
Institute. -. -
One word yet as to this editor's charac
tcr from a religious stand point, since he
has seen proper to assail our character as
a teacher of youths.
He was recently made Assistant super
intendent of the Lutheran Sabbath school
in this place, and on Sunday, the 12th
inst., in discharge of the duties of that
office, he was called upon to lead in prayer,
which he did in a loud, bold and appar
ently earnest manner, asking for blessings
on the children in particular over whom he
was presiding, and also on all sinners in
general. On the following Thursday
morning, after he had seen our reply in
the Jcjjcrsonian in answer to th 44 Smith
eld" band, he met us in the street and
addressed us in the following religious
strain
" What in hltlul you stah me for?
1 ou are a d d slinfc ; you arc a d
unthanl-ful man; you are a d -mean
7nan, dc, ifr." And at noon
the same day while he and several others
were upon the hotel porch, and we were
passing quietly along the street, b raised
bis voice to a high key, shouting alter us
"He is a d d liar," and persisted in de
nounciog and cursing us until his profau
ity caused the cheeks of those by whom
lie was surrounded to crimson with shame
because of the apparent depravity of him
who at present occupies the positiou
above named. It is possible for some peo
pie to glory in their own shame, for he
afterwards boasted, that he shouted thus
loud in order that we might hear him.
Praying to God on Sunday and honoring
the devil in the middle of the week, we
should call rather conservative christian
ity. . The present state of morals and rc
ligion will hardly admit of praying 44 goo
God and cood devil." Would it not be
an improvement, 3Ir. Greeuwald, to ex
purgato the devil both from your practice
aud service i
And now, friend Grecnwald, please ac
cept a little advice
If you should over locate yoursel
again in a strange place, tako a different
method of gaining notoriety; be there at
least six months before you attempt to
publish attacks upon public institutions
Don't be discouraged if this community
is slow to award you any undue amount
of ability, for we doubt not, if you keep on
in the course you seem to have chalke
out, it will, ere long, appreciate you. 1
your mania for publishing attacks upon
us has not yet subsided, keep on, as we
will read your articles with pleasure, for
words from a stranger, poured forth in
wrath upon the heads of citizens amount
to nothing. Learn to be honest and im
partial in the management of your jour
nal. When you need advice go to those
whoareable to give you theknowlcdge you
seek. Neither abuse nor libel any one,
nor allow others to do so through your
columns. Learn to respect the rights of
others and they will be sure to respect
yours. In a word learn 4 to do unto others
as you would have them do unto you,"
and you will live a happy and useful life,
and die regretted by all your acquaintan
ces. A word to the wise is sufficient.
