dl)c 3cffcv5onian. THURSDAY AUGUST 7, 1873. Democratic Journals, are busy just now, endeavoring to draw from the vasty deep of forgetfulncss, some rays of comfort with which to bury themselves up in the coming campaign. Put, wherefore. They can have no hope from the people, upon whom their deceptions were so long prac ticed, and which culminated so disastrously fur the Country some twelve years ago. Nor can they draw hope from the condition of things since that time. They have prophe eied all kinds of dreadful things that were to grow out of Republican rule, but each and every one of their dreadful things, turned out to Ikj most brilliant for the Country, and the nations prospcrity'and greatness have been growing more and more everjT d:iy TIipv s:it down firnnt ns flirt most, daring ofl humbugs outside of his military connections, and not much pumpkins even in them, but he has turned out to be one of the best Presidents we have yet had if uot the very be.-t. and the people feel this to be so, in their improved business, and in our improv ed prosperity generally. They denounced Ilartranft and Allen as very Princes of sv. in. Hers, and ruined was our good old Commonwealth to be if they were elected ; but even Democratic Editors, have been con strained to give btjtli credit for careful watch-i'uJne.-s over the interests of the State and people, and thus spiked their own defama tory guns, because the glaring truth compel led them to do so. They are now harping about ''rings'' and "ruin" just as they have done ever snec they endeavored to smuggle McCWIan into the Presidency, under the plea of Patriotism, but it won't work. S) long as Republican Administration is so suece&ful in making the State prosperous iiA the people happy, just so long will the :i.-p;rations of Democracy for a chance at the public crib be dimmed by the eclipse of hope deferred, and overwhelming defeat. Demo cracy may harp about its best men, and trot them out on the course ; but its best men in cilice are but paste board images, set in place t dance only as the corrupt managers, be- hini the screen, pull the strings. Even their organs pine only as these same managers turn the crank. They have neither indepen dence of thought nor action to bring into the work. Theirs is the province only to de nounce Republicanism without regard to merit, and to besmear Democracy with ful some praise, even though they know it once tried to lead, and has only the tendency to lead, the country and its best interests to ruin.

Wc are requested to announce that the Chcstnuthill New Church, situated near Gilbert's post pfiice, this county, and which is rapidly approach ing completion, will be dedicated to the service of Almighty God, on Saturday and Sunday, the 10th and 17th of August next. .Ministers from abroad, and the public generally, are cordially invited to participate in the exercises. The Rev. It. S. Kvcritt and Lady have been sojourning in this place for a week past, to the great delight of their many warm friends here. It was owing almost entirely to the untiring exertions of Mr. and Mrs. E. that our borough is now able to count the beautiful Presbyterian Church among its ornaments, and warm hearts and welcome smiles will be sure to reward their every coming among us. May long years to come of happiness, and usefulness be theirs. o- Court. A special term of Court convened at the Court House, on Monday last, to try causes in which Judge Dreher was concerned as counsel. Judge Longaker, of the Noithampton and Le high District presided, assisted by associates De Young and (J ruvcr. The first case tried was : , John Merwine vs. Kindarus Shupp and Win. Gilbert, Administrator of Peter Gilbert, late of Chcsnuthill township, deceased. The action was brought to recover damages for the seizure of a horse, wagon and lot of lumber, the first of which was sold, seized as the property of Wm. Custard, but which Mr. Merwine claimed as his property. Verdict for Plaintiff for $7 54 cents and costs. Daniel Everitt vs. Andrew Smith. Judg ment was entered by consent of the parties for amount of the award of Arbitrators, and inter est to date. On Tuesdav morning the case of Robert Huston vs. Amos Shoemaker was taken up and is still on trial. We will give our readers the incidents of the trial audits termination next week. From present indications this case mav last for several davs. OxE of the most noticeable improvements made in this neighborhood, in a long while, is that just completed by mine host VanCott, in the great addition to his new Hotel at East Stroudsburg. Though in business, and with a new hotel building completed, but a year, he has already suffered great inconven ience forwint of room, and the result has been an addition to his facilities for public accom modation, of nearly double. His hotel is now the largest in the two "burgh's," and is finished in a stdc to make it very attractive. In the plan of the building the comfort of guests appears to have been the grand desid eratum ; and every convenience that ingenu ity could devise or money secure forms a part aifd parcel of the Lackawanna House. The rooms are all large and airy and elegantly furnished, and the dining room issoarrnaged as to accommodate a large number of guests without danger of being crowded. Wc are pleased to sec this evidence of success, but as VanCott is a live landlord, a good citizen, a clever gentleman, it is just what wc expec ted for him. We uoticed that Mr. Secretary Poinsett has moved his head quarters from the Stroudsburg House to. the Lackawanna House, where we saw him, a few evenings ago, dispensing his excellent mixtures to a thirsty crowd.

A Karrow Escape. As Mr. Jacob Singmastcr, of this place, accompanied by his brother Henry, was ri ding over Cherry Valley Hill, in a two-horse carriage, on Thursday of last week, the hor ses became frightened, on passing another team, belonging to Mr. Wni. E. Henry, and, turning short, tipped the carriage over the Lank on the lower side of the road. Henry Singmastcr, on the first show of fright, sprang to the horses heads, but was unable to hold them. The carriage, with Mr. Sing master in it, and horses, fell to a depth of about 5 feet, and, strange to relate, save a few cuts to the horses, and some breakage to the carriage, there was no damage done. How Mr. S. escaped being killed is indeed t TT i A 1 P a marvel. Jie uiu not appear iu nave, suf fered an iota from the accident. By the way, would it not be well for the supervisors of Stroud township to attend to that road, as well as the one leading to Pox town. Both are so narrow, in places, as to make it dangeres for wagons to pass, and the accident to Mr. Singmastcr should be suffi cient to admonish those having the roads in charge, that a first class accident may mulct the township in first class damages, as a rc suit of their negligence.

The saloon keepers of Blufftoo, In diana. have issued a regular notification to the public that, having obtained li cense according to law to sell spirituous liouors. they propose to conduct their business according to law. They there fore notify all married women who do not want them to sell to their husbands to leave a written notice to that effect with in three days ; "and all unmarried wo men or girls who have "fellers' or beaux whom they do not wish to have taking their bitters at our bars will please give like notice." They have also issued a form of permit for the use of wives, in which they grant the husband the right to drink when and what they please, and waive all damages arising therefrom. The Bemocratic politicians in this State are doing their best to stimulate the for mation ol Farmers' Granges in Pennsyl vania. They are hopeless of ever carry ing the State under the Democratic name; and they have seized upon the Farmer's movement in the West a3 a god send. The first spot in which the Granges ap peared was in Berks county, and it was noteworthy that the foremost men there in were the local Democratic managers 1 he machinery ot the new organization affords them something new to work with, and those who have failed with old means always welcome the advent of new agen cies. .from nerKs, tne yrder spread in to Montgomery county, and probably in to the other adjacent Democratic counties: and, in our mind, the conviction is clear that the aim of the Democratic managers in Pennsylvania is to encourage the growth, and to gain the control, of an or ganization through which they hope to restore themselves to power.

This system will enable the bureau to give by telegraph the earliest iu dications of the approach of the great per iodical storms which visit those regions and sweep a long the coast every year, as well as to warn vessels of approaching danger. A Bt at ion is also to be established at Pike's Peak, and the observations at most of the old locations are to be enlarged. Hereafter let no more be heard of the phvsical weakness of woman. On Sun day, July 20, in Janesville, Wis , the Rev. Mrs. Van Cott officiated at nve re ligious services, preaching two regular sermons one on the Creation in ine morning, and one on Salvation in the afternoon. There were two or three reverend gentlemen who helped a little in the way of reading hymns and making the prayers, but Mrs. Van Cott did all the heavy work. . m m A Democratic paper in Alabama, call ed the Limestone A'eirs, feels compelled to say "that if it can do any better it fights no more under the Democratic nag It further adds, "there is not a scrap of the old Democratic banner left big enough to darn a hole in the seat of a pair of breeches " Anl, furthermore, "one had os'well sing hymns to a dead mule as un dertake to reconcile the animosities en gendered by last year's folly." The effort to secure the pardon of young Walworth for killing his father does not meet with much favor from the press and the more reflecting people in New lork. From the haste of the pris oner's counsel and friends in this matter and the well known firmness of Gov. Dix there is little hope that the present move ment will be successful. After the ex piration of a few years of his term of sen fence there will probably be some chance to obtain a pardon for the young man. New York. August 2 From foreign files just received are culled the follow ing: The Jesuits expelled from Ger many have in part found a new home in Lancashire. England. After they ha wandered through Belgium and England the brothers Sfapleton placed an estate at their disposal, and the fathers at onre established a Convent at Dilhon Hall with nea-ily one hundred inmates. Other colonies of German Jesuits have establish rd themselves at Stoninghurst and St Buenos, in North Wales.

Let none senff at the tale of depredations com mitted by ravaying grasshoppers upon the oats, bean, etc , of New Hampshire It is not a smiling matter. One gentle man, who comes very near being a Credit Mobilier Christian statesman, mournfully testifies that, after the grasshoppers had eaten up all his hop vines, they gathered in a spirit of malice around the denuded poles and tried to push them over. The Danville, (III ) Times is getting juite excited about the Farmer's move ment. It says in a wild, war whooping way : "Stand aside politicians you lit tie gnats and worms or the farmers will step on you and kill you ! The farmers will crush the very life out of any party, or any politician who hinders the car of reform ! With corn at a quarter a bush el, ycu may as well play with an e'e phant as a farmer." The sentiments arc good, but what puzzles us is to know why the farmer is like an elephant, and what comes of playing with an elephant. A. T. Stewart's Will : The New York Sun pays: Wealthy men are often credited with greater rich es ;han they possess, and frequently, al ter diligent inquiry into their resources, find that they have set too high a limit to their possession. It therefore rarely happens that a man astonishes himsell with his own wealth : yet a little on dil attributes a bit of this amazement to Mr A T. Stewart. It is probably generally known that Mr. Stewart took steamer for Europe last week. It is not so generally known that before his departure he made a will. Prior to making this will it was thought advisable to prepare a schedule of his real and personal estate, with its valuation. Upon the completion of the schedule, much to the surprise of Mr. Stewart, and to the greater surprise of his friends, it was found that he was worth one hundred millions of dollars. That any American citizen should be possess ed of so great wealth almost surpasses belief, but the truth of the foreyroiu statement is well authenticated. Brigliani Young Determined to have Peace in his Family. The elopement of Brigham Young's seventeenth wife, repotted by telegraph a lew days ago, was not without encour agement, it seems, from the autocrat of the Mormon church, though he did not desigu or consent that she should go so soon. t oalt Late nancr mves the fol lowing extract from one of Prighan Young's rcceut sermons : I wish my women to understand that what I am going to say is for them as well as others, and I want those who are here to tell their sisters : "yes, all the wo men in the community. I am going to give you from this time to the (Jth of Oe tobcr next for reflection, that you may determine whether you wish your hus bands or not, and then I am going to set every woman at libeity, and say to them now go your way. And my wives have got to do one of two things, either round up their shoulders to endure to afflictions of this world, and livo their religion that is, polygamy or they must leave; for I will not have them about me. I will go into heaven alone rather than have scratching and fighting about me. I will set all at liberty. What, first wife, too ? es, l liberate you all.
