THURSDAY, OCTOBER, 23, 1873. j&gr President G kant has issued a procla mation appointing Thursday, November 27, 1873, as a day of general Thanksgiving. 3T We have two bright spot?, in tin desert of Democracy. lue uorougn o Stroudsburg, and Paradise township. The Republican majorities are not large but they are encouraging. e might have more such if we would but organize properly and work thoroughly. Es-TllE following is the official result fo Representative in this district : Kistler. Carbon. 22C3 Deinmiek 1071 955 Monroe, 1331 3659 262G 2026 Kistlcrs majority. 1033 The election l.t week resulted, a3 usual, in an unequivocal majority for the Republican State Ticket. The vote was email, hot the result shows that a preponderating proportion of Republicans were at the polls, and the majority is quite gratifying. In our own county, the result is a very small vote, but wc believe thai in every in stance good men were selected for the several positions to be filled. For Representative, in the election of Mr. Kistler, we claim a Repnb can victory not in the election of a man of the Republican stripe, -but in the sending to1 llarrihburg, of an honest, sober, and indus trious man ; one who .will strive to carry out the wishes of his constituents, without regard to party, and a man , of whom we shall have no reason to .feel ashamed instead of a man who has nothing' to .recommend, him but his strict adherence to party ring rules. As to whether it is best in the end that wc Lad no special candidate in the field, that b jiot now a question before us. We had no such candidate, but we have secured the next best man in a Democrat, who, we arc certain, will always vote right when the honor and pros perity of the Commonwealth is concerned. It is no small cause for congratulation that, houcrh Mr. Kistler was nominated by the Democratic leaders, irregularly, for the pur pose of punishing. Carbon county, so good a man was selected. And it is as much a cause for congratulation that having nominated him, and having found out that he was not the man to suit them exactly, the same leaders endeav ored, unsuccessfully, to got him ofT the track, that they might have opportunity to eat their own words, elect Dimmick, and make peace with Carbon. Our neighbor of the Democrat, and other dignaiorics of the party, labored earnestly and diligently to accomplish this thing; but, thanks to Mr. Kistler's spirit, and to the adhe sion which the Republicans, both cf Carbon and Monroe, gave him they were "whipped cut of their boots," aud he stands as our Rep resentative, under no obligation to do any thing but what is right as an independent legislator. It is said that there are quite a number of soreheads about, because of Mr. Kistler's elec tion, but their possessors have no just cause to mourn. If either of them had been nominated the result might not have proved the same. TtLE storm which reached here, on Sun day night, and whose coming had been an nounced by "Old l'robabili ties' several days before, appears to have been very seven1 all along its track through the Middle, Wes tern and Atlantic States, in some of which snow prevailed to a considerable extent. High rivers and creeks, and great damage to property of all kiuds located along the streams, was the result in more than one locality. On the Hudson there was a com plete wreck and smash up of Canal Boats, and Barges, and at least two lives were lost In New York city, high winds and heavy rains prevailed, though no lives were lost and the damage to property was slight. Sever al vessels were wrecked on the Jersey cost but the crews were all saved. At Baltimore the Tabernacle tent belong to the National (.'amp Meeting Association was blown down Mid destroyed. Several Schooners were wrecked cn Lake Ontario but.no lives lo. The bridge at Moo.sic, on the Lehigh md Susquehanna railroad, Luzerne county, was carried away by high water. iThii Lehigh at Mauch Chunk rose six feet ou Monday, and one Canal boat was Carried ' over the dam R0j wrecked. " All through Pennsylvania the rivers end streams rose to an extraordinary bight In oyr ' yvfi initu.edi.ate neighborhood the streams roe rabidly,- but we have heard of no particular damage being done. An exploded kerosene lamp at Morris Smiley's residence, cn Monday evening last, raised quite an excitement down town, and very nearly an alarm of fire. Tbe presence of mind of a member of tbe household, who threw the burning lamp out in the street, no doubt prevented quite a tion. serious conflagra No MAN should deprive his wife or family of a good local paper. They do not go out from home to learn the news as does the husband and father, and the paper serves to relieve the otherwise lonely hours of his absence. It is the worst possible economy to deprive the family of a good local paper. . The Lutheran Church was crowded again on Sunday last, morning and evening. The llev. Mr. Kohler, has evidently made a most avorable impression upou our church going IeopIe. He is an excellent preacher. Mr. Sajiuel Buckley, Suj)eiiutcndent cf Wallace's sash factory, who has been spending a couple of weeks in Virginia, returned home on Friday last. He speaks well of the prospective future of that sec tion of country. rlH The jury in the Stokes case was com cn tbe ICth inst. The heaviest rain and wiud storm of the season commenced at this place on Sunday night, and ranged until Tuesday moruing. The season of the sear and yellow leaf is - "S upon us, in all its beauty and grandeur. The country never looks more beautiful than at this season. . ThkRcv.

II. S. Staples and Wm. E. Ileury, re ceived a car load of Wild Horses and Mules, from the far Western plains on Saturday evening last. The auimals are rather small in stature, but promise, from their great strength and powers of endurance, to make quite an acquisition to our equine stock. Judge DeYouxg and lady spent a week at the Nazareth Fair, and among their friends in that neighborhood. They had an unusualhy pleasant time, and they both speak most enthusiastically of the beauty, evidences of prosperity, and hospitality which they witnessed and experienced, in that region of their old home. Notice. There will be a meeting of the Stockholders of the Stroudsburg Loan and Building xssociation, on Friday evening the 2ith inst, at 7J o'clock, at Stephen Holmes office, for the purpose of electing officers to serve one year, fron: the Tth of November next A full attendance is requested. B. S. Jacoby, Temporary Sec. Improved Order of Women Beaters Mrs. Barbara Haney, was brutally assault ed by a fellow, calling himself John O. Coyne, and his wife, on Thursday last, at the Lime Stone Quarry, near Delaware Water Gap. Severe injuries were inflicted on her head and breast The accused were arrested and held for trial by Justice Bush. She is now under the care of Dr. G. Wr. Jackson, and is doing well. During the heavy gale, which prevailed here on Monday evening, one of the wooden ornaments on the Methodist Church steeple, some eighty feet from the ground, blew off, and striking the roof of Esquire Burnett's tailor shop, passed through the building to the first floor. The Esquire, who was in the shop posting books at the time, made a very narrow escape indeed, as the falling missle struck within a few feet of the place he was sitting. It was providential that the acci dent did not occur in the day time when the hands were at work. Esquire Drake, of Stroud township, left at our office a few days since, two ears of corn, of his own raising, one of which contains '20 rows, weighs U pounds, and measures 12 inches in length, and 9 inches in circumference, around the biggest end. I his is of the Cnester variety. The other contains 18 rows, weighs 1 pounds and measures 10 inches long and 9 inches in cir cumference around the biggest end. This is of the yellow Jersey variety. The ears arc fair samples of the crop raised on less than three-quarters of an acre, the total product of which was, by measure, 92 bushels of ears of corn. Can any of our readers beat this? In this age of scepticism, facts arc required to inspire confidence in the minds of the peo ple ; 'but, with good indorscrs, they are will ing to test any article claiming extraordinary merit The proprietors of Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Kcnewer offer the following in dorsement of the merits claimed by them for their preparation, by the Pittsburg, Fa., "Christian Advocate;' viz, "The public have so ofteu been deceived by the use of worthless preparations for the hair, that an article of this kind, to gain their favor and secure their patronage, must possess real merit. e are glad to assure our readers that ilall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer is meeting with the success which its merits so justly deserve; and we have reliable evi dence, that it will perform all that is claimed for it, in restoring gray hair to its natural color, and, as a permanent dressing, is unsurpassed, Monroe County Election Kciunis, Oct.

We were pleased to sec that the time consumed in the tour touched friend George so lightly as not to interfere, in the least, with the in stant recognition of friends. Batchclordom received a severe blow when George joined the honorable order of Benedicts. On Wednesday uight of last week, some eighty head of cattle, belonging to Shaddin ger & Smith, broke out of the Railroad Cat tle l'eu at Fork's Station. During the night they scattered along the railroad, and while standing around, a passing tr lin killed four, wounded several others, and so frightened th TRsf. thnr. thv scattered around in all v. . v - r - directions, liy oaturuay nignt, an not Kiueu I'nin T-.t njn rro t Viovnrt in cqva Qtvtrm i,:a...(,iI.,,m MaAfiiAi;nili reward for their recovery. The pen in which the cattle were confined was so poor as to lay the responsibility for the loss, it is said, on the Railroad Company. A Luzerne county man fell asleep, soothed to slumber by much fire water. He slept forty-five hours, and awoke to find that somebody had quietly cut one ol his ears off. According to a table in yesterday's Press, the next State Senate will consist of 20 Republicans and 13 Democrats ; and the House of 61 Republicans and 3'J Democrats; Republican majority on joint ballot, 2U. The Scraoton Republican says : -'At the present time there arc over one hun dred cases of small-pox in Hyde Park, and the disease on the increase. In sev eral instances corpses have been known to remain unburied for three and four days." The Reading Eagle gives a romantic love story of a wealthy old Berks county farmer, who became smitten with and married a handsome pea nut girl. For some time things went on pretty well, but a few days ago the young wile pulled up stakes and emigrated to Philadelphia, leaving her disconsolate, venerable and matrimonial companion a sadder and wiser man. He don't believe half as much in pea nut girls as he used to. Our monetary laws are good in that no one can lose anything by bad bank notes, for the reason that there are uo bad bank notes. Every bauk note is secured by Government bonds in Washington ; and what is remarkable, where a bank breaks, that has a circulation, its uotes com maud a premium. Iu other times it was very different, for then when there was trouble with banks, no one knew whether the notes he held were worth anything or uot This one fact should do much to keep people from a scare about the banks. Persons desirous of indulging in the uncertain business' of laying wagers on the results of elections obtain a solid slice of comfort from Illinois, the Supreme Court of that Comraonwelth having just decided that -'betting on elections is not gambling, and that a judgmeut rendered on a note given in payment of such bet is valid." In the next exciting political canvass people anxious to wager large sums will, no doubt, proceed to the State where the law recognizes and protects the peculiar pecuniary transactions they affect. There is no possibility of predicting what the courts of our Western States will next decide to be legal and equitable. -c , o a c- st o s -S - i O S C H XT 7? 3 ' p 2- Cl, CD I ' J.

It is re markable for its marriages and divorces. for its sensation storic?, its house raising and its rats.

He introduced Wayne MacVeagh as a foreign minster who had uot disgraced us, and a graduate whose fair fame was the special pride of the fraternity. Hon.
