JCST" The Democratic Congressional major
ity in its eagerness, to make capital out of
its bogus retrenchment, threatens to stop the
wheels of Government altogether. It had
Letter adopt the policy of paying liberal
salaries and securing competent officers in
the several branches of the government, and
pay liberal prices for labor and material re
quired in the various departments. Money
thus spent is not thrown away, but comes
back to the source from whence it euienates
the people in f-hapc of payment for com
modities raised and manufactured by those
same people. It is much better so, than for
the government to act the niggard and
thus add to the depression from which
the country suffers. No, No, Messrs
Democratic Congressmen, let liberality be
the-prompter of your actions, free from
all useless extravagance. Such course will
deserve and receive the respect of the
people, while a contrary course can only meet
with condemnation. One thing, we can as
sure you, you may as well give up at once ;
and that is your endeavors to secure success
for your party by playing the demagogue and
making speeches for buncombe. You can
not Nde the fact from the people that, not
withstanding your heated asseveration, it is
the "same old coon," after all, .who is at
tempting to foist itself into power through
false pretense, and that the party which once
operated almost to the destruction of the
country is not the party soon to be trusted
again with the management of its affairs.
The people understand this thoroughly.
EST" The Republicans of Seranton carried
a majority in both councils, but owing to the

The Republicans of Monroe county, though
few in numbers, certainly deserve credit for
the tenacity with which they stick to princi
ple. On all occasions, no matter what the
question to be fettled, whether National,
Nate' or County, they are on hand in fuli
proportion to t lie numbers of their opponents.
And this notwithstanding the fact that since
the second election of Gov. Curtain they have
Lertn, as it were, without organization, and
without even an active stauding committee
to manage and direct in the" great battle in
which they have, since that time, participa
ted. The result in every contest has sJ'owu
a truly sparten Lanu ot stalwart men, wo
have in spite cf all odds voted, every time,
for the right, and in no emergency been found
behind-hand either in members or in prompt
ness at the poll. What a foundation do
the e her e s 'urnish on which to build a party
superstructure, invulnerable to all attempts
to destroy it. Without party plunder or the
lipo of it ; with thousands, almost opposed
to their hundreds, they still march forward
manfully and protest the excellence of their
principles, aud the dangerous nature of those
or their opponents. Certainly on such a
foundation there can be no mistake in laying
an attempt to build up a party that in the
no distaut future will come forward conquer
ing and to conquer. And is not the attempt
to huild up such a party worth making. Ah
precedents go to show that there is plausibil
ity in the attempt and that its success is by
no means impossible. Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Maine, New Hampshire, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Illinois aud Indiana, are States, and Brad
ford, Susquehanna, Tioga, Potter and Mc
Kcan are counties, all going to show what
can be done, when proper means are taken
to'arouse the masses to a knowledge of the
justice of our cause and the purity of our
principles. AU these states and counties
were once as fast bound in the meshes of
Democracy, as is Monroe couuty, to-day, aud
yet now, owing to work, presistent work,
they are all as strongly and as certainly
ll-publican. What was done in them, may
be done in Monroe eounty, if we work here
as those worked who brought about the great
revolution in opinion in the States and coun
ties named if we husband our resources aud
make them of telling effect only for the ad
vancement of our own cherished principles
if we, letting our opponents do as they
please, do full justice to ourselves if we
come boldly lefure the people with our princi
ples at the fore, and let the Democracy skin
their own skunks and fight their own battles.
Yc, there is redemption even for Monroe
county in proper efforts by Republicans, but
to secure it we must perfect our organization,
;ind in meetings, aud the work of active
committees force cur good works to shine
still more brilliantly before the masses of the
people. Democracy does not entertain a
single principle which it held twenty years
ago, and the whole partjr paraphernalia was
so! i body and breeches to the Grecly-Brown
movement cf three years ago. The threats
of President Jackson to crush nullification by
hanging its instigators higher than ever
Hainan was hur;g, meets no response in the
I e ; ts of Democratic leaders to-day, and the
financial policy which, in the days gone by,
rcf:gnized gold and silver as the basis of all
values and the only true circulating medium,
for our business transactions, is buried in a
grave as deep S those graves which hold the
bones of Benton, Jacksou, Grundy and their
compeers. Even defunct state rightism Cuds
no open response, north of Mason's and
Dixon's line. But one set of principles re
main, of all the role which was once emblaz
oned on the banners of Democracy, and those
are comprized in the "loaves and fishes"
which draw the leaders together in a scram
ble for place and power and spoils. This be
ing true as gospel truth, what interest have
the masses of the people to remain in the
trammels of that party? convince them that
this is the truth, and you at once open the
way for their safe and speedy deliverance
from a thraldom which becomes galliog to
them, aud their introduction into a haven
from whence emenates strength to the coun
try and perpetuity to its life. This should lc
a pleasing work to every Republican, and it
fdrmld be a woik entered upon at once.
Brethren of the Republican party of Mon
roe, in this work we have a duty presented
to us, which should neither be overlooked
nor delayed, but its full accomplishment eau
only be secured by united, untiring action.
Wc must needs meet together, and consult
together. It is certainly desirable that we
le thoroughly organized, and this meeting
and consulting only can ac'.v-mplish this.

On Friday evening last, a number of invi

Nathan II. Shafer, at the Indian Queen
Hotel, in this Borough. All expressed them
selves highly pleased with the entertainment,
it being Nathan's 27th birth:duy.
And now, after envy has almost succeeded

J. L. DuBois, Esq., of Doylestown, Pa.,
delivered the second lecture of the course for
the beuc-fit of the Y. M. C. A., on Wednes
day evening last The Subject "liast Will
and Testament" was skilfully handled in
the humorous vein, and proved both instruc
tive and entertaining to all present.
Almost a Serious Fire. Tuesday
evening about 8 o'clock, the cry of fire
was given very vigorously on the streets,
and presently the fire bell began to ring
the fire boys together for business. It was
caused by a fire in Mr. Samuel Hoffman's
house, but which was fortunately confined
to a clothes closet. We learn that the loss
in clothing was considerable.
A tarty numbering some twelve couples,
met at the residence of Mrs. Kate Childs,
on Friday evening last, and after considera
tion concluded to confer an agreeable Mirpiise
upon Mr. Amos Miller and daughter Emma,
which they succeeded in doing to perfection.
After indulging a good time, in which plays
both ancieut and modern were enjoyed the
party broke up, each one happy at the
thought of having been present. As we had
no invitation of course we didn't share in the
enjoyment.
e
Festival. The members of the M. E.
Church, Fowler's Appointment, will have
an Oyster Supper, on Thursday evening,
March 2, ISTb', at the residence of Daniel
Walter (Jos. Dusenberry's place). The
proceeds to be applied to pay on the debt
of the Parsonage at Spragueville. All are
cordially invited to attend. Come one
come all. Should the evening prove stormy
the supper will take place on the next fair
evening.
Tustees.
Those Cisterns ! Ah, Yes! We hav'nt
built any yet, and probaly wont until we are
called upon to mourn the destruction of a
goodly portion of our beautiful village by fire,
when every body, borough fathers and all,
will not only wish they had thought of them,
but built them too. There is no economy in
saving the money which should be put into
such structures for the promotion of the
safety of our property. The scattering of a
single dwelling in the smoke of conflagration
will ensure a loss greater than would be the
cost of building a dozen cisterns.
Mr. Wilson Peirson, of East Strouds
burg, in company with Mr. Jos. Staples of
the Del. Water Gap, aud Mrs. Jos. Jones,
of Paradise, on Tuesday evening last, com
fortable' seated in a two-horse carriage, aud
while descending the hill between Joseph
Lee's and Spragueville, the horses became
frightened and ran away, up-setting the car
riage and nearly demolished it. Mr. P. was
thrown out and sustained some painful but
not serious injuries. Mr. Staples was jarred
some about the shoulders, but Mr. Jones got
off without injury. The horses ran as far as
Mr. Stites' when they stopped.
Our Stroudsburg Cornet Band made a
crood hit in securing the services of Mr.
Rogers Hawk, formerly a member of the
Brodheadsvillc Band. Though young in
years Rogers possesses marvellous skill as a
cornetist, and with care will make an
eminent performer on that instrument. In
addition to his band duties he is filling the
position of Satanic Majesty of the Monroe
Democrat, a position in kind, but not in
locality to that once occupied by Benjamin
Franklin, Chief Justice Lewis, Simon
Cameron, Ex-Speaker Blane and a hostof
like worthies. May he become as eminent
in the ranks of the "art Preservative of
all arts as is cither of those named."
Mr. Ix T. Smith, Forks Station, (Del.

A Small Coin with a History. Mr.
Charles C. Drake, now of this place but
formerly of England, showed us a small coin
either of French or English coinage, of the
value of about eight cents, which was coined
in 1402 during the reign of king Henry the
Fourth of England. Said coin was picked
up in 'Tort Elliot Park" the seat of Lord
Elliot, ancestor of the Earl of St. Gearman,
in the county of Cornwall, England, by the
great-crand-mother of the aforesaid Mr.
Drake in the year 1701, while walking with
her mother in said park, she then being but
three years old. Said coin having been in
Mr. Drake's family for 175 years.

Minisimv TniuE, LO. of U. M., of this
place, celebrated the third anniversary of
1IT
their organization at their lgwaui on
Thursday last The turn out on the occasion
was very fair, and a number of ladies graced
the occasion with their presence. A number
of addresses were delivered, notable among
which were those of Simon Fried, Esq., who
gave an interesting sketch of the rise and
progress of the order, David S. lxj, J. K
Andre aud the Rev. Dr. Carrow. The latter
gentlemen's theme, "Sociabiliti'," was ha p-
pily and instructively handled, and proved
in effort of greater interest than is usually
heard on ueh occasious. Prof. Drukenmil-
ler, presided at the organ, and varied the
exercises of the evening by the introduction
of choice music, rendered in his usual artistic
manner. Altogether a most pleasurable time
was had.
In other columns we take great pleasure
in presenting our readers with a very pleas
intr Centennial Song entitled "A Hundred
Years Ago"' by Prof. A. Homer Benedict.
Many of our readers will recognize in the
above name the Professor who on two occa
sions has been in our place and successfully
taught the science and art of writing to a
great number of our citizens. The Prof, i;
a very superior writer in a scientific and artis
tic point of view, and this song shows conclu
sively that he is a no less superior composer,
with a liberal vein of poetic ski!! and genius
flowing through his composition.
Wc cannot help saying that wc are highly
pleased with the poem. In a word, we call it
first rate. It is a most excellent grouping
and statement of the historic facts connected
with our national birth and progress, togeth
er with the object and reasons for our anticipa
ted great international centenary glorification,
all told in easy flowing poetic numbers.
The Prof, is a natural as well as educated
poet, and we learn has two volumes of poems
in inauuscript which Ko contemplates pub
lishing at no distant day ; and if this song
may be taken as a sample, we doubt not
that the Prof, is det-tiued to become as popu
lar, a. poet as even John G". 3axo.
