As spring opens our citizens will find an enor
mous amount of work to do In the way of clean

grace the back doors, nnd In many places we no
lied them nt the front duors. Although there Is
an ordlnnnco prohibiting Alio accumulation ot
dirt la the gutters and streets, It looks as
though the high constable had sadly neglected
bis duly. Market street particularly looks none
of the most Inviting to promenndcrs. The benps
of oyster shells adorning It emit a stench promo
tive of disease, nnd whon "Old 8nl" asserts
his power, which be will hot delay much longer,
per force the laws of natur e, we will be severely
punished for neglecting the laws of health and
the ordinance of the borough council. We have
Indications of this already. We hope the bor
ough fathers will bo aroused to a sense of their
duty ut an early dato, by the bad odor pervad

HionwAT RoniiERV. On Tuesday last, two
men giving their names as Peter McCabe and
James Curtis, who allege Hint they hull from

Sluce writing the above we learn that the par

the charge he had preferred against them. They
were then discharged by Squire Dleffenbach.

Snow. The month of March, tints far, will
long be remembered for Its changeable weather.
One day we are reminded of Spring with all its
pleasant sunshine, and the next day of bleru
winter with its snowy mantle, and the thermom
eter below zero. Tho Alio weather on Sunday
last, brought huudreds of persons upon the
streets to enjoy the spring's advent, but ou Tues
day there came another change, aud we were
once more reminded of Vvinter. On Wednesday
morning the "beautiful snow" begun to descend
and by night old mother earth had again a cov
ering of some six or eight inches, and tho merry
sleigh bells were agalu heard lu our streets witu
the occasional crack of thu whip from a Jehu
driving a cutter.
Slkden Death. Mr. Elijah Bycrly, a highly
respected citizen of Lower Mahanoy township,
died suddenly on Monday a week from n stroke
ofuppoplexy. Mr. Bycrly wus well knowu In

was highly esteemed as an honorable aud up
right man. In politics he was a Democrat, aud
for a number of years took an active part for his

Ol k neighbor of the Guzettt attempts to teach
ns the law regarding the publishing of the town
ship audit reports, and strongly defends the "pa
tent outside" of his paper. He also insists upon
it thut the GazetU has tho' Inrgest circulation of
any other paper in the county. A friend ut our
elbow thinks that ho might have also stated
"that it U also probably less read thau any other
paper in the county." We are uot ut all desirous
of taking away any of our neighbor's laurels,
and feel happy that he bus such au exulted opin
ion of himself, us it makes some men feel good
when they believe themselves belter thau their
ueighbors.

Spotted Fever. Within a few weeks past se
veral car.es of Cerebro Spinal Meningitis or spot
ted fever, occurred In this place, which proved
fatal. On Tuesday last two young men died

Bessenger, aged ubout 10 years, died very sud
denly, and lu the eveniug G. Welser Snrlek, of
ubout the same age, son tit the lata Jno. E.
Smick, died of the same disease. These make
four cases within about four weeks. We notice iu
our exchanges that the,discuse prevails to a much
more alarming extent lu some of our neighbor
ing towns.
A Narrow Escape. Ou Wednesday morning
as the passenger train from 8hamokln was np.
prouchiug the crossing at the turnpike, about a
mile east of this place, a htlcltslor from Uniou
county, named Samuel Rclchenbach, attempted
to cross the railroad before the locomotive came
up. But he had not calculated upon the srrpo.
riority of the speed of steam over thut of horses,
nnd the result was the complete wreck of his wa
gon, anff a slight injury to himself". The horses
escaped unharmed, and the man made a most
miraculous escape with his life.
