Sarah street, between Center and George, was aroused by the cry of murder, on Sun day night last, about half past 10 o'clock. Windows were hoisted, and night-capped heads, and heads that were not night-capped, were thrust out, but as the cry .was not re peated, the excitement died away and people went to sleep again.

"One Who Knows," in the last Monroe Democrat, has deuionstated, most conclu sive!', that the chief foundation of the Great Democratic party is "7?u?ji," and that the success of the Temperance "fanatics," cleri cal as well as secular, would certainly squelch the Democratic fa brick, by the destruction of its main support. The effort of "One Who Knows," contains many unique ideas of mat ters and things, past, present and future. and the whole thing sounds, when read uloud, vastly like the sjceches that used to lie made at Democratic meeting?, here by the gentleman whose oratory interspersed with such nasty spitting. It was doubtless of Chtstnuthill origin. Do so often Judge. There is no doubt as to the correctness of your idea, that with Bum wiped out modern Democracy would be annihilated. s Pennsylvania Reserve Association.

In these day?, when tight hats, hot air, and sedentary occupations, cause the hair to fall out, it is a matter of no little importance to know which of the hair preparations are of any value. The major ity, as has been frequently proved by the fir.st dermatologists, or hair-doctors, possess little or no merit. Such being the fact, it is consoling to those who are afflicted to know there is really one good article, which is re comuieuded and used by the first medical authority, and has stood every test, many years. This preparation is Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer, a truly scientific compound, which is unquestionably the best preparation of the kind now before the American public. It will restore gray hair to its original color, cleanse the head thoroughly, cure all eruption .of the scalp, and will always restore the hair so long as any germs remain, as they almost invariably do, until extreme old age has destroyed the roots.

Thinking your many readers, would like to know something about the winter we have just passed through, I refer to my record, and find the first snow of the season fell on the ICth of November, the next was on the 2Gth of the same month, ...I 1. il . i 1 1" 1 n Muicii gave us me wise sieigning. ana irom that time on till the 28th of March, we had sleighing, unintcrupted by a break ofanyac count. The number of snows, which have fallen were 22, and the depth of the same, for the winter, was 08 inches, or 8 2-12 feet. The winter has also been one of unusual severity, the mercury indicating on the morn ing of the 30th of Jan. 32 below zero, and at noon on the same day C below. The next coldest morning I find to have been on the 30th of December, w hen the thermome ter registered 18 below zero,. and find four teen (14) mornings besides, 011 which the mercury was from 5 to 1 4 below. If the oldest inhabitants want a more snowy or severe winter than this, I advise them to emigrate to Greenland. Yours Respectfully John Jn. Stokes. Stroudsburg, April 9, J 873. Amafulus O. Greenwald, editor of the Mont rope Democrat, has leen elected a member of the Stroudsburg school board. So says the Scranton Daily Democrat. Avast there, brother ! No such tricks upon travelers. Amandus is Editor of the Monroe, not "Mont rose" Democrat,' and, we, hereabouts cannot consent to have his lines laid in other places. It is usual for localities to be proud of its lions, heroes and shining lights generally, and we cannot consent to be made an exception to the rule. Besides Amandus has been, is, and will continue to be, for all time to come, our stand ing candidate for Congress, and as the severely black Republican county of Susquehanna, of which Montrose, is the capitol, was not gerc mandered into this Congressional district, how could we make him available, if we should consent to his being dumped there?. No, no! Amandus O. Greenwald is the; Editor of the Monroe Democrat, and resides in Stroudsburg; and we rejoice ihat in his elevation to the School Directorship, for which his qualifica tions eminently fit him, he has reached the stepping stones to the rank of the prize of his high calling; a seat in Congress. . - i. . Obituary. It becomes our melanchollr duty to announce the death of John P. Douiina, Esq. which oc i-nrred on the eveninsr of the 5th inst., at his residence, in Coolbaugh township, Monroe Co. ra. in the 09th year of his are. The deceased having been left an orphan in the City of New York, at the early age often years, and without the advantage of a single days education, was thus eirly thrown upon his own resources for a livelihood, but being a youth possessed of an indomitable energy and perseverance, and an iron will, he easily and readily overcame all obstacles and discourage' menls that presented themselves before him and at last succeeded in obtaining employment in a manufactory, where, bv his diligence and strict attention to business, he soon won the confidence and respect of his employers; who, discovering that he was a voung man of no or dinary genius and business tact, look every oc casion to promote linn in the business in which he was engaged, thus affording him ample op portunity to cultivate the ambition winch they found was urging him onward. He hnally succeVded, bv his perseverance and industry in attaining the high and responsible position of superintendent of the entire manufactory. But, his close application to business began se riously to impair his health and he determined upon visiting Europe, in the hope, that a change of climate and a vovage across the At lantie would prove beneficial to his declining healih. lie accordingly embarked for Eng land, and while there he regained his health but not feclinj; satisfied with the country, its laws and institutions, he started in the same year to return to this country: On this voyage he endured all the hardships and distress ot a shipwreck, but finally succeeded, in company with a few of those who had tailed with him from Liverpool, in reaching New York. Im mediately after his return he entered the office of the New York Tribune, where he became intimately acquainted with Horace Greely who appeared to take a lively interest in hi welfare, and for whom he ever afterward en tertained the most kindly feelings and the most tender regard. Here he remained until he fiAally concluded to seek a home in the then winls of Eastern IVnnsvIvania. He accord ingly started with his little family, and upon arriving here, selected a spot of ground wuicl he deemed suitable, and upohi which he erected a cabin to shelter himself and family, from the inclemency of the weather. Here, after en during all the hardships and privations inci dent to a life in the wilderness, he succeeded final I' in clearing up a furra and iu accumula ting tnough of this worlds goods to render him self and his companion, whom he loved with all the tenderness and a fleet ion of v.hich he- was capable, comfortable and happy in their declining years. iNo man, perhaps, ever man ifested more anxiety for the comfort, welfare and happiness of those around him than did the swject of this brief sketc h. Having learned from sad experience the pitiable condition and almost absolute helplessness of those who are thrown upon the cold charity of an unfeeling world, at an early age, without the advantages which a good education affords, and not know ing what might be the fate of his own children, lie determined to spare no pains to give them such an education, at least, as this region of country would afford at that lime, and the lim ited means at his disposal would permit. Y hen he l;ft the city he left behind him many warm friends, many of whom manifested a dis position to do what they could that would prove beneficial to him and promote his happiness and comfort. Jjut, as this county, which con tained but few settlers at that time, became populated, he found himc!f surrounded once more by many warm friends; for no man ever became acquainted with Esquire Dowling, could avoid loving and respecting him.

But he has gone and the place which he filled in the community is left vacant and will! be hard to fill. His health had been failing for some time previous to his death, ami the decease of his wife which occur red about fufteen months - aeo, proved a serious mow. Miornv alter tne occur- ranee of this sail event, he had the mis forluen to fall from a chair and dislocate his hip. His death was caused by heart disease. His remains were interred at his own request, in the cemetery at South Sterling, Wavne Co., near the Odd Fellows Hall. Owing to the in clemency ot the weather and the unsettled eon dilion of the roads at the time, no services were held at his interment. The funeral services will be conducted by the Hev T. V. Maclary of Tobyhanna Mills, as soon as the weather and the condition of the roads will permit. Father and mother have gone before They're waiting for us on the other shore, Side by side they sleep in death Yet live, where life is not a breath Gone, but not forgotten. ' E. II. HELLER. A Balloonist Comes to Grief. Allentown, April 14 Today was observed as a holi 1 iy, and the city was filled to overflowing to witness the ascen cion of I'rof.

It is perhaps not generally known by fchool directors that an act was passed two years ago by the Legislature of this State, making it obligatory upon directors to publish yearly the receipts and expen ditures of their respective school districts Without a compliance with this luw, tax payers may with propriety refuse to set tie their school tax. It would be well for school boards throughout the country to bear this iu mind. John MeDermott killed his wife on Monday d New York with a hammer. Donaldson, the aeronaut, . made an ascension from Allentown on the after noon ol Saturday hist. He got of! uboul 2J o'clock, performing various fects on the trapeze as, he ascended. He soon rose above the clouds, meeting a current moving in a south east . direct iou. In about an hour, after having but briel glimpses of the earth iu the interval, he found himself over a large city, which proved to be Trenton. Descending nearer to the earth he .moved northward u few miles, uud finally alighted safely uear Titusville. Donaldson says that if he had known the direction he was travlliu he could have returned to Al.Ieutowu y taking the lower current. The distance traversed was about filtj miles. Most of his course lay over Rucks county, which he probably cros.-ed in a transverse diree tion from M i 1 ford to Falls As the sky was clouded over the balloon was not observed by the people, nor did the dar ing voyager know of his whereabouts. He was not over a mile high at any time The Harrisburg Stole Journal says of the work done by the Legislature just afjourned: -'What was done by the body during its long session, remains yel to be fully understood, because the greater part of the mischievous bills passed were never printed, and will only become lully understood when they go into the pages of the official volume of laws. The amount of private legislation secured at this session, notwithstanding the Irce use of the veto power by the Governor, was immense, and much of it ol a mischievous character. The great corportions got all they wanted, while the attempts of little combinations to secure incorporate privi leges were either snubbed in the Leisla ture or crushed in the Executive Cham ber. Of course there were wholesome laws enacted, but of these we cannot speak, until we see them in print, and it is better therefore to refraiu from free criticisms at present."

The operations of the institu lion have been very satisfactory. The solitary system is uot now enforced, owing partly to the crowding of the prison and partly to the fact that a moderate degree of association is fouud to produce better effects.

The Wool Trade. Wool has fallen considerably. In Lon don the February sales opened at ld Less than the November prices, and de cliued still further, but advanced again to the opening price. There are good prospects of an increase in the wool pro duct everywhere, and wool is likely tube cheaper after June. During the last months of 1871 inferior substances were used in making woolens, which gave bad wear and led to general distrust. It was Imped that these worthless products had been destroyed at Host on, but the v were not all consumed. Foreign wools h ive fallen also, and, owing to the present advance in gold, it is difficult to sell the wool now in boud. Ohio fleeces, which were 75 to 80 cents this time last year, now sell for 55 ceuts per pound. . Among uther facts learned in the trade is that Mr. T Stewart is now largely in rerested in American woolen mauufac tures, and, with his usual energy ami promptitude, has organized a wholesale department exclusively for them.

A writer in an Eoylh paper says , "By the way, speaking of waterproofs, t think 1 can give travelers a valuable hint or two. For many years J have worn india rubber waterproofs, bot will buy no more, for I have learned hai good Scottish tweed can be made earirly im pervious to rain, and, moreoTef, T havo" learned how to make it so; an J, for tho' benefit of your readers, I will gWt'ther recipe : 'In a bucket of soft water, put half a" a pound of sugar of lead, and hall a pound ol powdered alum; stir this at intervals, until it becomes clear, then pour it off into another bucket, and put the garment therein, and let it be in for twenty four hours, and then hang it up to dry with out wringing it. Two of my party a lady aud gentleman have worn garment.- thus treated in the wildest storms of wind and rain, without getting wet. The rain hangs upon the cloth in globules. In. short, they were really waterproof. Thw gentleman, a fortnight ago. walked nine, miles in a storm of rain and wind, suclii as you rarely see in the South ; and,, when he slipped off his overcoat, his underclothes were as dry as when he nut' them on. This is, I think, a secret worth knowing; for cloth, if it can be made to keep out wet, is, in every way, better than what we know as most waterproofs." To Young Men. The young man who has an ambition to make a great noise in the world should learn boiler making. He can make'more noise at that trade than anything else ho can engage in. If he believes a man should "strike for wages., he should learn blacksmithin" O especially if be is good at "blowing." If he would embrace a profession inr which he could raise rapidly he should become an aeronaut. He couldn't find anything better for high." He certainly could do a staving (and perhaps a starving) business at the cooper trade. If he believes in roeasnrcs. Dot men," he will embark in tit the tailoring basU nes. If ths one great, object of his life is to make mouey. be should gtt a position ii the United States mint. If he is a punctual sort of a chap, nndt anxious to be "on time." he htmld pu3 his hands to watch mailing. If he believes it the thief e?id of sian to have I.' bn.i:icss largely 'Mfls," why of course he vill become ifter. "If be wanis to l et at (he j-irt of a thing," he will become a dentist; although if he docs, he will idteu be 'looking down in the mouth." If a man is a bungler at his best he should become a physician, and then he will have none of his bad wiik thrown upon his hand',. It is generally buried out of sight, you know. irhould be incline to high living, but; prefer a plain board, then the cai pentcr's trade will suit him. lie can plauo board enough at that. Tf he is needy and well bred, he will be right at home as a baker. He shouldn't become a cigar maker, if be does, all his work will end in smoke. The yound man ho enjoys plenty of company, and is ever ready to scrape r.s acquaintance, will find the barber busi ness a congenial pur.uit. The quickest way lor him to ascend to the top round of bis calliug is to become a hod carrier.' A very ''grave" young man might flourish as an undertaker. Don't learn chair making, for no matter how well you please your customers, they will sooner or later ''get down" ou your work. And don't become an umbrella maker, for iheir business is "used up " If he would havo his work touch tho heads of tho nation, we know of no way he could sootier accomplish such au object than by making combs The young man who would have the fruits of his labor brought bclorc tho eyes id' the people will become an optician. The woik, being easily seeu through, cannot be difficult to learn A man can always make a scent in tho perfumery business.
