THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1876.
ntEsiii:TiAi.
The Democracy in desperation has been
for thelast four weeks like a blind rattlesnake,
biting at everything withiu reach and out of
reach, as well.
They have tried a dozen different plans
and devices to defraud Gov. IIa3-es out ot
the Presidency; but as fast as these plans
have developed themselves, they have been
crushed. In the first place in the midst of
their wild enthusiasm they claimed nearly all
the states, alleging that those they did not
rot wore fraudulentlv taken from theui. For
n season they claimed even Ohio, Illinois,
Michigan, Wisconscn, California, Oregon,
and then South Carolina, Florida and
Louisiana. They got their political mouths
80 wide open that they imagined that they
had swallowed nearly the whole union. But
as day-light of facts began to dawn upon
them, they legan to realize that Jonah had
mt swallowed the whale after all. But they
imu.c diatelely became sure that the only rca
Fon that such an event had not occurred was
that the Republicans had cheated them. So
that while they have been lustily crying "stop
thief" they have been most desperately try
ing to cheat themselves into the Presidency.
If they could not get either of the above
named states, then thej' would do something
rise to defeat the will of the people. They
knew of an elector in New England who was
a Post Master, also one in Oregon, and con
trary to all law, common sense and honest7
they demanded that their respective Gov
ernors should give their Democratic com
petitors the certiBcates of election. Then
after slipping up on their reform effort at
success, they got their eyes on Nebraska
which had the audacity to give 15,000
majority for Hayes, The law of that State
required the Legislature to canvass the vote,
but then the Legislature was not required j
to meet until after the first Wednesday in j
December when the Electors must vote in j
their respective States. The Democracy!
knew that the Governor of that State in
tended to canvass the vote and issue certifi
rates to the electors without calling the
Legislature together for that purpose. Had
the vote been so counted the reformers were
o:i; to defeat the will of Nebraska by otject
i pg to counting her electoral vote cn the ground
(,i informality. But in this they were trip
led up again. The next big thing that
promised success was that one of the Hayes
electors in Massachusetts was going to desert
Hayes. But the gentleman refuses to do
j.nything of the kind, as any honest man
would. But not enough yet. They then
commenced lustily declaring that Hayes
would refuse to receive the presidency lcanse
jr hnd a semblance of being tainted with
iVajd. But on this subject Gov. Hayes has
not opened his lips. But what next ' Why
they declare Colorado not a State in order to
prevent her electoral vote from being counted.
i. ut this last ts simply childish desperation.
Their n?xt, like unto it is, for the lower
If 'ne of Congress to send investigating com
t:irteps into South Carolina, Florida and
Louisiana, which sha.ll report before Congress
-ounts the electoral vote in Februarj7 that no
fnire'ection? have been held in either of these
States, and hence no election by the people;
and then the lower House would elect Tilden
for President and the Senate elect Wheeler
S3 Vice President. This is their last dosner-
r.te rr-.mo. But we trust that this like the
other bubbles will burst when fairly touched.
The reform Democracy were boasting that
n: of the members of the Florida Board of
(.inasers had been bought for Tilden. But
who believes it? But their end of devices is
not yet. As soon as the Democracy of
Louisiana ascertained that fraud, murder,
;:'.id intimidation had fvlcd to secure the elec
tors of that State for Tilden, they applied at
once to wonld-bc Governor McEnerv for
certificates of election for the defeated Tilden
candidates for electors. This McEncry was
a candidate for governor two years ago and
was defeated. He has as much legal right
tr issue them certiGcatesof election as Queen
Victoria, and no more. This seems to be
the reformers very last desperate leap, and
wo think it will be a Sam. Pach lean all
plunge and no come up. But could anything
hiow more clearly the utter lolly and despera
tion of the reformers?
&2The Democrats have alleged verbally,
in print and by telegraph that the election in
Louisiana was quiet and peaceable. Yet the
lion. Stanley Mathews, of Cincinnati, who
went South at the request of President
Grant, and who is one of the most eminent
and best men of the country, discovered
some ugly facts which serve as a full offset
to these assertions of Democracy. He men
tions a precinct in one of the Louis
iana parishes, whore the colored men
were marched to the polls between lines of
wrnte armed men, and compelled to vote
the Democratic ticket, and were then
inarched to another place where they re
ceived certificates that they had so voted,
its a protection against violence from the
white liners. This statement would not
have been made by Judge Mathews had he
not been made by evidence entirely satisfied
of its truth. Probably this pictures the
Democratic idea of a f jir, honest and peace
uhle election, but other people will beg leave
to ciiier with them.
JC2f- There would seem to be absolutely
no limit t the damnable fiendishness of the
Louisiana ''bulldozers." The colored wo
man Eliza Pinkston, whose harrowing story
before the Canvassing Board sent a thril
rf horror throughout the entire North, was
on Tuesday night visited at her place of
sojourn by three Democrats, one of whom
she declares by name to be one of the
scoundrels who- so brutally assaulted her
in Ouachita. He drew a putol on her as
the lay prostrate, when she leaped from
her bed and fled through a door down
stairs. The evident object was to kidnap
tier ana Cora W nlams, also, a Republican
witness. She shrieked and the villain fled
before the uoliee arrived. Ttw ITrut.1
States Marthal drove at eleven o'clock at
.flight to the house and posted guards. The
piteous tale of this poor woman's .'wrcoa
JEST A story has been set afloat by the
New York Nation that one of the Massa
chusetts electors, James Russel Lowell,
intends to cast his vote for Bristow or
somebody else, and thus throw the election
in the House. There is doubtless not one
word of truth in the story. The New York
Tribune well eays "the Republican elector
who casts his vote for any other candidate
than Gov. Hayes would shamefully betray
his trust and violate the expressed will of
of the voters of his State. This pressure
upon Republicans to make some conspicu
ous sacrifice in order to avoid disputes is al
together mischievous, for it encourages
their adversaries to persevere in their sys
tematic policy of vaporing and menace.
When conservative gentlemen advertise per
sonal anxiety to be intimidated they will
naturally be accommodated, for a very little
bluster will suflicc to terrify them ; but the
mass of people are not so easity frightened."

but after singing and the first prayer the Rev.
gentleman found himself suddenly overcome
with weakness to that degree that he was
utterly unable to continue the services, and
he therefore at that point, dismissed the

and wide acquaintanceship wethiukhc must
get his share of the public patronage. The
culinary department will be under the general
supervision of his estimable wife, whose
reputation in the cooking line is No. 1.

A Surprise. On Thanksgiving Day
the Rev. Wm. P. Howell and family were
invited out to-assist in demolishing a large
turkey and we must say he did justice to
histurkeyshipas well as to the occasion. In
the evening the door bell rang and Mr."
& Mrs. Howell were greeted with a sum
mons to repair to the - parsonage. They
were loath to tear themselves away from
the pleasant associations of the evening but
could not refrain from obeying the call, and
so reluctantly bent their footsteps home
ward, little dreaming that better things
were iu store for thenv On their arrival
at home they found the parsonage had been
taken possession of by numerous members
of the church aud friends iu the community
at large, who greeted them with merry
hearts and smiling faces. After the ex-
chinges of congratulations, M. A. De L.
V an Horn in behalf of the members and
riends of the church, arose and in a short
and spicy address presented the Pastor with
a new black suit of clothes and his wife
with a handsome black dress. The pastor
replied in an address of some length, re
marking that while he had during his minis
try been visited by a number of so-called
surprises, yet this he believed was the firtt
genuine surprise. nue others had been
so emphatic in their solicitations for him to
be at home upon certain occasions as to
arouse his suspicions, these had been just
as solicitous for him to be away from home,
thus diverting his attention, he was quick
to make a point of a slight mistake of Mr.
V an Horn s, who exchanged packages and
gave Mrs. Howell the clothes and him the
dress, remarking that as )'et he preferred
to wear the breeches, lie spoke in highly
congratulary terms of the god feeling the
occasion had created and remarked that it
would be a spur to act as an impetus to as
sist him in his ministerial duties and his
pastoral visitations. After the excitement
of the above presentation had subsided.
Mr. Feirson arose and in behalf of some of
the ladies presented each of the Pastor's
children with a new dress, and also a
quanatity of provisions, which had been
brought in unbeknown to either the preach
er or his wife. This was followed by a pre
sentation by some gentleman of a handsome
bed quilt, the gilt of Mrs. Geo. Mann, and
also a purse of money, for making the gar
ments presented. Brother U.S. Burger
presented a large bag apparently filled with
apples which he served around to the au
dience, but which when conveyed to Mr.
Howell s bin, produced an enormous I lam.
Thus one tiling after another was brought
brth and from t he countenances of all pre
sent was fitly expressed the truth of the
Saviour s words. '"It is more blessed to
jrive than to receive." It was hard to tell
who was the happiest, for all were happy
and rarely has an evening company spent a
more pleasant or enjoy a We tunc. Rev.
Howell is one who will appreciate the kind
ness of his numerous friends and seemed to
lack words to express his appreciation. One
of the most noticeable incidents of the even
ing was his reply to the presentation to his
little daughter, standing with his hand up
on her head, he said : she will never forget
it, will grow up with her into womanhood
and she will ever cherish this occasion of
kindness to her. After spending such a
pleasant time the company adjourned about
10 o clock.
At s meeting of the East Stroudsburg
M. K. Sundav School Association, held iu
the lecture room of the church, the follow
ing officers were elected to serve for the
ensuing year, superintendent, Itev. W ni.
P. Howell; Assistant Superintendent, Geo.
Mount ; Secretary, Richard Storm ;
Librarian, George E. Stauffer ; Assistant
Librarians, Charles L. Rhodes and Richard
King ; Treasurer, Levi Smith The elec
tion was a very warmly contested one and !
it was not until after the sixth ballot that
choice was made for Superintendent and
assistant. The contest was, however, for
the contestants to keep out of office, rather
than to get in. There were eight candi
dates for Supcricntcndcnt, and after they
had all been dropped but the last two, the
vote was a tie. It was a real season of enjoy -ableness
and the best of feeling prevailed
throughout. The election was not con
cluded until some time after candle li 'ht.
More of Profesor Franklin Alias
Weeks. Last Thursday a young man
hailing from Astoria, N. Y., applied to Rev.
W. P. Howell, and told the oft repeated
story of his having been met by one styl
ing htmself Prof. Franklin, and by the
spirit of infatuation, which he seems to pos
sess was induced to leave his father's house
without money and means to visit the infa
mous hovel of this would be free lorsr, only
to find that he had been duped. His story
is that Franklin alias Weeks, came to a 1
Good Templars' Lodge Room in Astoria, of
which the young man was a member and
represented that he was lecturing for the
benefit of an Orphan's House near Strouds
burg. Pa., and by his smooth tongue in
duced them to let him have the Hall and
assist him in the sale of tickets. He had
a well filled house and pocketed at least
$30.00. Through the persuation of the
young man he was taken by his mother to
board for a few days and it was while here he
persuaded the young man to embark to the
beautiful home of his fair ones, near Bush
kill Falls. It is only a wonder that this
deceiver has so long evaded the clutches of
his infuriated victims. It is reported there
is a reward of $50 offered for his carcass
in the neighborhood of his summer resi
dence. New Milk Man. Mr. John Tecl, for
merly of Tobyhanna Mills, has started a
milk route in our Borough to supply the

hour. He is thoroughly reliable and our
citizens will do well to givo him their pat-
ronage.
A Good Day's Hunt.
John W. Greening of Lacxawaxen, was
out hunting pheasants on Thursday last.
When on the high point beyond the station
he came upon two largo fawns feeding. He
shot one of them dead, and the other stood
still and looked curiously at its prostrate
comrade. As ho stood gazing thus, the
hunter shot him, and he bounded over a
ledge and fell dead at its base. JToyiesdale
