l)c 3cCTcr5auiau. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1873. Personal. Mr. James S. Shoemaker of Fort "Wayne, Indiana, a former Monroe county boy, is spending a season with his friends in Middle Sruithfield. ..David Shoemaker, of Kansas, a son of the late Michael Shoemaker, is also sojoining hereabouts. Both look as though living in the West agreed with them. The correspondent of the New York Jferiill, in noticing our centenarian, George Labar, says that he smokes a pipe and takes his whiskey straight. A friend, suggests that if George does not stop those evil practices he will shorten his days. George is only 114 years old. The advertisement headed "4th of July 1S7G" is wnrhty the attention of our readers. Monroe county should certainly be represen ted in the Convention to be held on the 22d inst, and her citizens should resolve to do a full share towards securing the success of the celebration of the Centennial Anniversary of American In Jepcndcnce in 1876. The President of the D. L. &, W. Railroad has concluded to curtail the expenses of his corporation, by withdrawing the publication of the Time Table; from the papers printed along the road. The consequence is that the public will have to guess at the time of the departure of the trains from the several sta tions, Editors will have to pay down for the occasional rides which they take over the road, and for which they have heretofore paid some $50 per annum in shape of adver tising, and the railroad company will not save a penny. A wise man is Sam. Sloan, Presi dent of the Del. Lack. & Western Railroad, tru'y and the public, rail-men as well and everybody else, think, a very small one two. The Constitutional Convention, on the 2Sih ult ... adopted the following section in regard to the election of members ot the Legislature, and the term for which they are to be elected : An e'ection fr member of the genera! assembly shall be held in the day fixed f ir the general election next succeeding the adoption of the constitution, and at the i:eneral election held every two years thereafter. Their term of office shall be pin on the Erst day of December next, succeeding their election. When any vacancy occurs in either houe, the governor shall issue a writ ol election to fill such vacancy for the re mainder uf the term in which Mich va fancy shall have oecured. We learn from the annual report of the Directors of City Trusts that the number of orphan children provided for in Girard College at the close of 187'-! was5lG The number of admissious foi the year was 100. and of discharges 87.

The electoral votes of the several States for President and Vice-President were formally counted in the presence of both IJouses of Congress on Wednesday last Vice President Collax was in the chair nd opened the returns. Objections were ma le to the counting ol the electoral votes of Georgia, Mississippi, Texas At Kansas mid Louisiana, for various reasons. These objections were considered and voted on by each branch separately, the result ot which was the exclusion of three vote from Georgia, cast for Horace Greeley and the entire rejection of those forward ed from Arkansas aud Louisiana In the c;;se of Georgia it was decided that votes; given for a dead man were void ; in the case of Arkansas the certificate was! insufficient and did not bear tl.e State peal ; aud iu that of Louisiana it wa. agrecd ihat there were no valid returns thowing the choice of either set of eiec tors The net result of the counting footed up for President TJ.

Its inconveniences and dangers were never more strongly shown, and all parties should now unite iu a common effort to enact a Constitutional amendment r.ro aiding for a direct election by the people w - The abolition of the .franking privi lege will be a little severe on the patent out.-i les.

Go to Phillips' for fruit candies' and oys ters, prices lower than before the fire. ; Who are going to be the first movers in gas and water companies for Stroudsburg? f. , , They marry young women at auction in China. Here they are disposed of at private sale. There is now every prospect that the bil to reduce letter postage to two cents will be come a law. Go to Phillips' resturant and confectionary for good cigars and tobacco, opposite the M E. Church. Beautiful days were Monday and Tuesday, but the nights were too cool for genera standing around. The short days that everybody dreads, cx ccpt gas companies and kerosene oil dealers, are departing. . m . For Sale. Two new seven Octave Pionas, for sale at the Washington Hotel Dec. 19 '72-tf. Bringhani Young is under the impression that polygamy is good for 1,000 years yet in the United States. Mr. Peter Robeson, on Monday last, killed a valuable horse which was rendered useless, after losing a hoof. Stroudsburg juveniles go for a sleigh as they pass up aud down our streets, like a lot of Yahoo Indians for an emigrant train. The flock of nine sparrows which made their appearance here in the fall has dwin dled down to a single bird. Sorry for that. . 9 M. L. Phillips' has the largest and best stock of French and American candies in town. Try them. - The Stroudsburg Preachers Meeting wil re-assemble in the M.E. Church on Monday February 24th, at 2 o'clock, P. 51. Every member is requested to be present. Wc learn that several new instruments are to be purchased soon, for the "new band,' so that we expect to hear the correct version of its startling the midnight atr in a short time. If there is a3 much drunkenness on the streets again as there was last Saturday night, we shall begin to try to convince our selves that local option is played out in this ancient borough. . The Phoenix boys contemplate taking their steamer out for practice, on Saturday next. A good thing as the ridding of our sidewalks from their unsightly ornaments, willproba tly be a consequence. Don't forget that M. L. Phillips has just opened his place of business up town, oppo site the M. 11 Church. His many friends will be pleased to learn that Dr. X. L. Peck who has been confined to his home for some time past, seriously ill, is able to be about again. The practice of the boys making "skating rinks" out of the sidewalks is rather dan gerous. It should not be allowed. This, as much for the sake of boys as the traveler. Ilev. G. W. F. Graff will deliver a Lee- tare on Love, Courtship and Marriage, at the M. E. Church, Delaware Water Gap, on Tuesday evening, February 2oth. Pro ceeds for benefit of the church. More Snow, with- some drizzle, and a sprinkle of rain on Sunday last. Monday, a contest between old Sol aud Winter, in which the former made considerable impression. Over coats dull over shoes active. The sleighing still continues excellent, but it bus been so long on hand that, our people have bad a surfeit of it, and almost begin to hope they have about seen the last of "the beautiful," &c, for this season. - Go to M.

Hunter, has been delivering a series of Sabbath School and Temperance Lectures to our people for a week past. The lectures have been well attended, and have not we trust been without their good result. . What is going to be done on the 22d day of February? The day that gave birth to the man who was "first in peace, first in war, and first in the hearts of his countrymen," should not be allowed to pas3 by without notice. Mr. B. J. Hull, a finished workman, and a real arti; t in the marble line has succeeded Mr. J. E. Erdman in the monument and grave stone business. He is an untiring workman and we hope he may have his hands full of business. An order of Improved lied Men, was in stituted in this place on Monday last The new Council assumed the name of "Mini sink." Why not "Analomink" as being a name well known in the neighborhood, and much the prettier of the two. The boys were around on Saturdav even ing, and, from indications, a little too thoroughly saturated with benzine. The noise on our streets at times was hideous and the firing of a pistol did not help the matter a bit. Among other performances the sereading of a newly married couple, by means of the "skimmerton" process was the order of the evening. Keener with an invitation to a nights lodging in "Hotel de Troch" would cot have been a, miss. A Concert, under the management of the Misses Kanousc, will be given at Williams' Hall this evening. As the performers are all Stroudsburgers and pupils of Miss D. A. Kanouse, they fhould.by all means, be greet ed with a full house. Local option rules quiet just now on the serface, hereabouts, but we presume mat there is an under current at work, on both sides, that will lead to surprising results at t!if Potion iii March. Each side claims that its chances for victory are the best. - : His Honor, Judge Drcher, wo learn from the Honesdale papers, was suddenly taken ill in the midst ot a trial at that placo week before last. Wc are happy to learn that he regained his usual health, aud was able to proceed with the Court business of l ike to last week. Colonization. It is rumored that quite a number of our j-oung meu, married aswel as single, contemplate colonizing somewhere in the West, in the spring. We shall hate to loose their familiar faces, but hope the rcovc, if made, will prove to their advan tage. .& Some ill-disposed person having the fear neither of God, the law, nor the wants o the craft before his eyes made a raid on one of our typo's coal on Monday evening last A little powder scattered among that coal, or a trap or two placed around carelessly', might secure to the thief just what he deserves. Court commences here on Monday next February 24th. We have any quanity o handsome receipts that only await the ca'lo our deliquent customers to be neatly and ex peditiously filled up. . Call in any numbers friends, you will be sure to find the "latch string" out, and a hearty welcome awaiting you. The present winter has been harder upon horses than any within memory. The heavy snows following closely upon the heels of the epizooty, added immensely to the laborious duties of the brave animals. They have pulled through it thus far magnificently, and we bespeak for every one of them an extra peck of oats. Wc were wrong, last week in announcing that the Eilenberger Bro's. had abandoned their concert tour. The closing up is only temporary, caused by the illness of the par ents of the brothers. They expect to renew their tour in April, and are now completing arrangements to add a brass band to the troupe. Their last concert was given at Lewisburg, where crowded houses greeted them. SuRrmsE. A most complete and agree able surprise, was inflicted upon the Rev. J. Pastorfield and lady, at Spragueville, on the night of the 4th inst Some sixty or more persons from Tannersville and vicinity made their unexpected appearance, and after partaking of a joyful collation, raised a handsome purse, and presented it to their popular pastor. And Still Another. On the evening of the 12th inst, the Church members and friends of Cherry Lane charge called, and presented Rev. J. Pastorfield and lady with a handsome quilt, and replenished their lardor with a bounteous supply of stores. We have been requested to return the sincere thanks of the doners to the generous donors.

Details of the Terrible Disaster HEARTRENDING SCENES THAT FOL LOWED TOE COLLISION. The Ship Goes Down Head .First with Two Hundred and Twenty-Seven Souls on Board. . ' . V- ; i The London Times of January, 25, publishes details of the terrible disaster to the ship North-fleet, .Jroro which it 'ap pears that at half past ten at night the! captaiu aud others were alarmed by a cry from the officer of the watch "A steamer is right into us." The eaj tain and pilot rushed on deck, but before they got there the steamer h-id run into the vessel, striking her amidships, and cutting her below the water mark. The carpenter reported her nearly half full of water. The 'pumps were started promptly and the crew worked bard nt. them for some minutes, but when it was fouud that the water was rapidly gain ing, a panic seemed to peize both crew and passengers, and the officers could not keep the latter in check." A crowd of meu and women had rushed up from their berths. MANY ONLY HALF CLOTnED. The passengers had mostly retired ; but few were undressed. The noise ol the collision is likened by one of them to a peal of thunder, and such was the vio lence of the shock that those standing were knocked down. It appears that the steamer rebound ed, and came a second time in collision with the Northfleet ; water began to pour in, and ia a very short time the passen gers' quarters were swamped. The wo men were slower to rush on deck than the men, and many were not in a condi tion to go till the wafer rose threatening ly around them. No one on board the steamer was heard to ppeak, although loud and eager shouts from the North fleet must have made her crew aware of the terrible danajrer that existed. She bi ked for two or three minutes, acd then steamed rapidly away and was soon out of sight. For half an hour the scene on the deck of the Northfleet was appalling WOMEN SHRIEKED, MEN CURSED and swore and fought their way toward the boats, whilst the captain and nrst mate roared out commands to keep back and allow the women to get to the side of the vessel, but apparently with out success. Rockets were fired and blue lights burned. The gnu was loaded, but the screw of the ramrod became detach ed from the handle, and the piece could not be discharged. Signals of dsitrcss were seen by other vessels, but appear to have been regarded as signals for a pilot. for no assistance was rendered. Mean while the sceue on deck lafHed descrip tion. The captain, finding the men de termined to leave the vessel, went below, armed himself with a revolver, and as cending the poop, declared his determina tion. TO STI00T TnE FIRST MAN who tried to leave the vessel before the women were saved. The first boat lunch ed was lowered by a number of passengers by cutting the ropes. There being no ladder at hand, the only way of getting into it was by leaping or dropping some twelve or fifteen feet. As there was a terrible rush toward the boat the scene was one of distressing confusion, and a man and boy fell into the water and were drowned. The officers did all they could to force the men who first got into the hoat to leave it, that the women rnii;ht he saved, but to no purpose. Even fir ing with a blank cartridge, it is supposed, at first, was unavailing. About thirty persons having got into it, the boat was pulled off, with not one of the crew in it. ANOTHER LIFE BOAT WAS LAUNCHED, when a man got into it and was ordered to leave. lie refused, and the captain shot him in the calf of the leg. Captain Knowls placed his wife in the boat and said to the boatswain, who had already sot in, "Here is a charge for you ; take care of her and the rest, and God bless you !" Wringing his wife's hand, he bade her good-bye, saying, "I shall never see you again !" It is impossible to describe the panic that raged all the time. Heart rending scenes were witnessed on all sides One of the passengers, seeing the cap tain's wife io the boat, threw his own wife in, tossed the baby to her, and en tered the boat himself. A little girl was thrown into the boat by her father, who tried to save the rest of his family, but the seething, maddened crowd pressing towards the side of the vessel prevented, and, with his wife and two other chil dreo, he went down with the ill fated vessel. THE FATE OF THE ENGINEER. The engineer, who made frantic efforts to save his wife and children, was jammed between the cook-house and gunwale, re ceiving mch dreadful injuries that though afterwards rescued, he is still in a precar ious state. Only two of the seven boats aboard were launched, owing, no doubt, to the panic, and one was seriously injur ed as the tackle was cut and the boat fell into theeea. When the second boat got off it seemed to become a question of mo ments. The quarter deck was still crowd ed by MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN, some crying, swearing and praying. The captain and pilot were together, and the latter was heard sayinur, "If you want to save yourselves, make for the top mast," to which many people rushed. In a quar ter of an hour a tug picked up the Feeond boat with thirty occupants,- and then steamed for some time round the pot, where, about three quarters of an hour after being struck, THE NORTHFLEET WENT DOWN, head first, with awful suddenness, with 227 souls on board. At that moment the first boat was one hundred yards and the second only twenty or thirty from , the jes8cl. The first boat, after landing the women, put out to the scene of the week, and saved five men who were trying to swim to shore. A lugger took, ofl the occlfants of the second boat, SI pnspcn t:era and a pilot. The cutter rescued a pilot and ten men, who, having gone down with the vessel, rose'to the surface and clung to the maintopmast rigging The vessel lies in eleven fathoms of wa ter." -.. ' A The survivors say the captain display ed the greatest heroism, maintained his presence of mind from first to last, strove hard, to put an end to the panic, and did his duty bravely to the end. " He was at the last moment poing across the deck in the hope of enabling some of the crowd rushing around the boats on that side to get away from the snip, lhc survivors says other boats got adrift WHEN THE SI! II FIRT SUNK, and express the belief that if the passen gers had allowed them to be lowered pro perly, at least one hundred more lives could have been saved. Unfortunately the women could not climb the masts, al though we did all in our power to help them, consequently all the women and chil dren, with the exception of the captain's wife and another, and two children, were drowned. There is a white monkey in the Cen tral Dark collection who will not associate with the colored ones, which is the most striking bit of evidence yet brouuht for ward, perhaps, in support of Darwiu's theory of the decent of man.
