Tlie Ticket.
The Republican Convention might have
labored for years and hardly have secured
a ticket equal to that nominated at Cincin
nati on Friday last. A more brilliant man
thau Rutherford B. .Hayes foT the Presi
dency might have been chosen ; indeed the
names of such were there in numbers; but
the selection of one uniting in himself all the
elements of strength to an equal degree
with Gen. Hayes would have been hard to
have fixed upon. Born in Ohio and educa
ted and brought up to the profession of law,
he had the advantage of growing up with a
country largely unsettled and acquiring that
vigor of both body and mind, which has ena
bled him to exhibit those traits of character
which have made him loved and respected
by the men of all parties who know him best.
Nor is Ills fame circumscribed to his own im
mediate neighborhood. In the Congress of
the Nation he represented his Congressional
Di.-.triet with an honesty which presented no!
drawbacks, a watchfulness that knew no tir-
ing, and a modesty which, if it did not per
mit of vaunting speeches, never led him to
hesitate ngainst speaking plainly, forcibly
jind convincingly in behalf of or in opposi
tion to measures which met his approval or
disapprobation. In the rebelliou he marched
among the first in defence of the Union, aod
after engaging in many battles when the war
was ended marched home a scarred veteran,
and bearing as a reward for distinguished
services the position of lire vet Major Gener
al of volunteers. Since then he has been
thrice elected to the office of Governor, first
defeating George II. Pendleton, then Sena
tor Thurman and then the late incumbent,
William Allen. He must have exhibited
more than ordinary qualities to secure this
success, for on each occasion he appeared as
a forlorn hope to rescue the State from the
danger of lulling into hands of men of pro
clivities almost as bad as were those of the
rebels themselves. Gen. Hayes' brilliant
military record, his useful civil administra
tion, his great qualities of judgment, dili
gence and firmness, his freedom from obstin
acy of disposition, his fairness and noble
equity so confessed and lauded by political
antagonists, which speak the nature of the
man, all combine to render him at once a
j-afe and a trust worthy leader.
The lion. Wm. A. Wheeler, of Xew York,
has a record equally brilliant in the service
of the country. Though never a soldier bc-
gri mined with the smoke of battle he has
exhibited a bravery in the civil walks of life
which has given him a character equally
exalted with that of his illustrious companion
en the ticket. In both branches of his State
legislature aud in its Constitutio nal Conven
tion and in Congress where he is now serving
his fifth term he has so labored that he is
declared, even by his opponents, to be one
of the very few men in Congress whose deeds
would bear investigation. Though of un
obtrusive habit he has so made his mark as
:m able parliamentarian t hat his is pronounced
o Lc the best nomination that could have
been made for the position. To the country
he is best known as the author of the com
promise which secured the first successful
advance towards bringing order out of chaos
i:j Iew Orleans aud securing peace to its
$ -co J i e.
With such candidates for President and
Vice President, Republicans can well enter
the canvass under the encouraging assurance
that victory is bound to perch upon their
Launcrs.
We arc under obligations to Governor
Hartranft for a copy of the general laws
passed by the Legislature during the session
ofl87G.

And now boys that we have got the ball
started, lets keep the ball moving nor suffer
it to rest until its repeated turnings over
nd over culminates in the biggest dis
phi.v of unadulterated patriotism ever even
thought of in this section of country. We
have started just right, and notwithstanding
a little draw-back or two, there is no reason
why the right should not keep up until every
thing proves a most glorious success. And
ladies, don't ou any account fail in your part.
Remember that, it was the immortal Webster
Who said that "without womans' aid and in
liuenee nothing can succeed." Daniel knew
what he was talking about every time, aud
experience teaches the truth of his senti
ment. Be active then and urgent with father,
husband aud brother, and do not hesitate to
use leap year priviiiges eveu in prodding the
Kigging lover, if such is to be found to the
full performance of his duty as a patriot and
a man. We should bear iu mind that we
will never take part in another Centennial
birth-day ; and how disgraceful it will be to
us if we fail to set a proper example to in
fluence the duo cer.tcunialists of a hundred
years from now iu the demonstration when
s their, day and generation arrives in the
performance of their duty. Be up and doing
therefore betimes in the collection of funds,
the preparation of banners and decorations,
and every other thing which patriotism and
success demands of you. We have but
i 'even days yet left for work, let uo time
therefore be lofc.

An inventory of the personal property of
the late Stephen Gould, deceased, of Allen
town, has been filed in the office of the Regis
ter of Wills of that county, and which alone
foots up to the amount of $G5,000, a large
part consisting of mortgages, bonds aud
stocks. The real fist ate at a moderate valua

"For some time past we have been enjoy
ing a little badinage with the Stroudsburg
Jrjfersonum, whose editor, although cn the
wronfr side of the house politically, we
thoucht had breathed the pure air of Mon
roe county long enough to have freed him
self of the bitterness that marks so many of
his kind. It seems we were mistaken. lie
is full of gall, lie caunot hide it, and so he
advertises the shame of his party by referring
to the time when Democratic newspapers
were mobbed by "loyal ruffians, and Demo
cratic editors were hounded and pursued
lie seems even to glory in the disgrace which
for all time must attach itself to the men
who engaged in the ignoble work, aud the
worse than cowards who urged them on with
out daring to become open participants in
the outrages. And these mobs the editor of
the Stroudsburg Jefi'crsonia n calls an "out
raged community." We must decline any
further controversy with a journal whose
highest regard for a "free press' ' is its destruc
tion at the hands of a brutal mob, that with
murder in its heart and "the inceudiary's
brand in its hand, would spread destruction
and wreak vengeance regardless of law and
insensible of order. God forbid that that
day may ever come when a Democratic
journal will justify mob law, or prate of the
lovalty that calls the Union a league with
the devil," and the Constitution of our
fathers a "covenant with hell." Let the
Jetjersonian (what a misnomer!) enjoy the
notoriety it covets, we II have none ot it.

Remarks. What a terrible hubbabaloo
our neighbor has worked himself into, and
all for nothing. Those who have read our
squibs drawn forth by his attempted hits at
us will have no hesitancy in discovering the
thin skinnedncss of our fiicnd, who evident
ly intended to have all his fun to himself.
We should certainly had nothing to say if he
had only notified us in his first article that a
reply was not desired, especially such an one
as merely tit for tat. "Why, we claim to be
utterly free from gall, and feel hurt to think
that our amiable friend has even suspected
us of such a possession. But tuta, neigh
bor, since you intended the matter to assume
the proportions of a controversy, and yet cry
prc-cavi at the first semblance of a hit, which
by the by was a simple rejoinder of fact
tossed against an unwarrantable perversion
of truth we do not believe that it would ei
ther be profitable cr funny for you to contin
ue your efforts longer. When we begin a
controversy we generally continue to the erid
giving and taking hits with great good hu
mor, and even when attacked we seldom cry
quits until the subject is exhausted. Our
reference to the search for currant bushes,
was but the first grain of spice that we had
thrown from the heap we had gathered for
service in the laying on between us and we
really regret that we have so much good ma
terial gathered to hand only to be wasted by
your drawback. But, again tu-ta, dear
friend, and better luck to j'ou next time.
The questions as to the "brutal mob," and
whether a portion of the crowd were not
good citizcus goaded on by your disloyal ut
terances we leave for settlement between you
and your fellow citizens. One thing, how
ever, remains that those who you charged
with being corrupt Republicans and insinu
ated, were shuffled off by the Democracy,
voluntarily and to its regret did leave the par
ty just about the time when disloyal Demo
cratic Editors were endangering the safety of
the Union by playing into the hands of its
rebel enemies. We will make no further
reference to nocturnal crawling under cur
rant bushes, as that seems to be the sensitive
point. This questioning friend, sometimes
leads to serious results.
Hayes and Wheeler ? Yes, that is just
the ticket which names our next President
Times here still maintaiu a dull appear
ancc. But few of our usual city visitors have
made their presence felt at the boarding hou
8cs in this neighborhood, by the usual in
crease iu money circulation which annually
marks their coming.
An Ice-Cream Festival for the benefit o

customers, has again visited the city for thei
benefit, lie has just received a large and
complete assortment of gents' clothing and

The ladies having charge of the late M
E. Church festival feel constrained to thank
the ladies and gentlemen who kindly lent al
desired and needed assistance ; and the com
munity for its very liberal and generous
patoruage and kind behaivour; and especial
ly do they feel indebted to the Beethoven
and Cornet bands for the excellent music fur
nished on the occasion.
Fourth July at Delaware Water
Gap.
On 4th July evening Minsi Council No,
24G O. U. A. 31. will celebrate the Centen
nial Anniversary at the Delaware Water
Gap, with reading the Declaration, speeches,
singing, fireworks, &e. The occasion will be

I'crsonal.
Prof. John Moran, of Mauch Chunk, has
been engaged by the Stroudsburg Cornet
Band as their leader aud will shortly take up
his residence among us.
Mr. Ciias. Holmes, wc regret to say, has
suffered, a relapse, and is undergoing a siege
of typhoid fever, from which we hope to
learn of his speedy recovery.
The lie v. Mr. Wallace, of whose inju
lies and suffering we recently made mention
is recovering. He will soon, we are pleased
to be able to announce be about again.
Mrs. Jos. Gouciier, on Sunday last pre
sented her liege lord, with triplets, all boys.
One of the hoys, died shortly after its birth.
Combined weight at birth, 13 pound.-:. The
remaining two are doing well.
Peter S. Edincer. Esq., one of the pros
ent board of Commissioners of this Couuty,
who has been tick for some time past, wc
are pleased to learn, has so far recovered as
to be about again. He was iu towu ca Tues
day last on business.
Improvements.
The Odd Fellows Hall Association contcm
plates new and valuable improvements in
and around their hall building. A new stone
flag walk, and a front flight of stone steps
leading from the pavement to the entrance
hall are what has been agreed upon.
Geo. II. Drchcr has commenced the brick
work of his new residence and is having the
walls run up as rapidly as a good job will
warrant.
.
Steamboat on the Delaware at the
Water Gap. Quite a novelty has put in
an appearance at the Gap. A party of men
bearing the firm name of Newman &
Fench brought to the Gap last Staurday,
we believe, a small Steamboat from some
point on the Susquehanna. The boat was
brought on a fiatbottom car to the Gap.
The boat is intended for pleasure riding,
and we are informed will comfortably seat
from 5U to 75 persons. The boat is nicely
covered,. we are told, and has glass windows
on the sides. The weight of the boat is 5
tons, about 30 feet long and draws about 3 ft.
of water. We presume the boat will remain
at the Gap as long as it shall prove profitable
to the company having it in charge.
IV civ Hook.
A new and highly valuable work just is
sued by subscription entitled "The Foot
Prints of Time," or a complete analysis of
our American system of government, by
(sharks Bancroft. This volume meets a
waut long felt by our citizens who have not
time to wade through the works of our mi
nute authors. The first part presents those
principles which advanced step by step, in
the worlds early history and eventually grew
up into our American system of government.
Ic the second part, the author pi resents each
department of the government in each of its
parts with the official list since our national
existence, with a short history of each of the
States and Territories with a wide scope of
valuable statistical information. Iu the third
part, the history of our country is presented
in chronological order. As a whole, upon a
careful investigation of its merits we consid
er it without a peer in the wide circle of
American literature. We trust our readers
will examine this work with care when called
upon by the agent, and if possible add to
their libraries.
"While Republicans almost everywhere
are heurtly gratified over the result at Cin
cinnati, the effect among the Democrats is
one of annoyance, if not of dismay. The
nomination of Hayes . has sorely perplexed
them. Had Biuirie or Conkling or Bristow
or Morton bceu the man they" would have
known the opponent they had to deal with,
but Hayes has disconcerted them, as they
frankly and openly admit.
.Surprise Serenade.
Last Friday evening the Stroudsburg Cor
net Band tendered Col. E. E. Norton a ser
enade at his residence in Stroud township,
and although it was unexpected by the Col.
the boys were entertained in a princely style.
Mr. N. and family had returned home from
a winters sojourn in the South, only a few
days previous, aud before he could realize
the presence of the band, that good old tune
containing more music and sentiment in it
than all others combined, " Home, sweet
Home," greeted his cars and brought him
self, accomplished wife and beautiful daugh
ters to the door, when a most cordial invita
tion was given the boys to come iu and enjoy
the hospitality of the house. Once in, the
"happy home," as the Col. calls it, seemed
to be possessed with the sweet balminess of
the sunny south, bathed in almost summer
sunshine and clothed in summer beauty by
the presence of lhn.se, in whose absence it
was desolate aud dreary. Amid the snap
ping of champagne corks all made themselves
at home when a social chat ensued, in which
all participated and enjoyed. Miss Nettie
sang "Those pretty little sandals I saw trip
ping down the street," written by her moth
er, and several other songs in French and
Latin, in a style that would do honor to mo:-.t
professionals, having a voice of extraordina
ry power and melody under the most perfect
control. After playing a number of pieces
the serenudcrs took their departure, all of
the opinion that they never had a better
time or were more cordially received than, at
Col, Norton's.
An decant cake was presented to the
Cornet and Beethoven bands, by the ladies
of the M. E. Church festival for their kind
ness in furnishing music for them gratui
tously. .

Cuc-cii CluU Pic-Ale.
Last Thursday the Queen Club held their
first pic-nic, at Iike Popononmiug, and a
grand success it was. On the grouhd a lame
platform had been especially fitted up for
them to trip the light fantastic, and it re
quired but a short time, after their arrival,
to eutcr into the dizzy maze of the dance.
About 1 o'clock the Club aud invited guests
were summoned to the table which was groan
ing beneath its load of good things provided
by the ladies, to partake of their first pic-nic
dinner. We must confess we never saw a
more pleasant, sociable, or happy party gath
ered together around the fotive board, or
more beautiful well, we won't commence
to tell it, for tho array of beauty could not
be beat in the thirteen original states. Din
ner once disposed of dancing and boating was
indulged in until about 5 o'clock in the eve
ning, when the party were acain collected
around the festive board to partake of Ice
cream and cake, which teemed to have an
additional relish added to it by the happy
maimer in which the ladies served it. Re
fore starting home, "Shamus O Urien" and
"Jennie, the Pride of Kildare," was suns?
by Miss Annie. Wolfe aud Etta Rl'.sii, in
a manner that caused the silvan grove to
echo with their melodious strains, and elicit
rounds of applause f rom those present. Prof.
II off, of Washington, N. J., and Harry
Druekenmiller of this place, furnished the
music, and right busy it kept them, too. At
an early hour in the evening the pic-nickers
returned home, all perfectly delighted with
the admirable manner in which it was man
ad and the general good time had by ail.

A PitOFlTAULi: Cow. The Doekortown.
N. J., correspondent o hi ic Newton JFcrahn
says: Samuel Benjamin, of this place, is
the owner of a four year old cow, of the
ordinary breed, which, we think, is hard to
beat as a butter maker. From two days
milking, she produced at a single churning,
4$ pounds of what is called gilt-edge butter.
This is at the rate of 2J pounds a day, which
is an extraordinary yield, aud we venture the
remark, few if any cows in Wantage can
equal it. If there's a cow in Sussex that can
beat her, wo would like to have her step to
the front. If not, "Sam" is entitled to the
belt lor the best butter maker.
