Evert few weeks tor ueighbor of the Demo
crat has somcting to ay about Wilvert's Ring.
We do not know that we ever belonged to a ring.
but we arc certainly lot usharaed to belong to
such a ringas tbe Rcpblicans,who,while in power
but one year, paid off a Democratic county debt
of some twenty thousand dollars. Our neighbor's
ring who has been it power about six months,
and who came into sllice when there was no
county debt ar.d money iu the treasury, have al
ready exhausted the county treasury, aud are
fast accumulating another county debt for the
tax payers to pay. Iiut we dou'l bear our neigh
bor complain about extravagance now, for fsar
his plans for electing his men into offices this
"all may be spoiled. It is already kuown that
Eichholtz will succeed in nominating his men to
form tbe Democratic ticket. Jake Eichholtz is
certainly entitled to credit of studying Boss
Tweed's mode of running the Democracy, and
be is not slow in managing to secure men in his
bcuefit. The honest Democrats in the county
will, no doubt, be a little surprised at the ticket
after it is announced.
Drowned. On Friday eveniug last a number
of persons were in the river bathing at the foot
of Market street, and among the number was
Alexander Shields, employed on the railroad.
Later in the evening Shields' clothing were found
npon the flat when it was at once surmised that
be was drowned. Search was made, bnt his
body could not be found. Early the following
morning search was again made, when his body
was tound some fifteen feet from shore. Esquire
Pureel empaneled a jury of Inquest, who ren
dered a verdict that Mr. Shields came to his
death by accidental (frowning. Mr. Shields
hailed from Snow Shoe, Centre comity, and had
been employed on the railroad for about three
years. Ho was about 22 years of age. He was
a harmless young man, and highly respected by
his associates. His funeral look place on Sun
day morning, and his remains were followed to
their laf t renting place by a very iarge conctmrne
of frieuds and citizmis.
Turkeys are said to be tbe best destroyers of
the potato bug. In a neighboring county the
farmers, to a great extent, got rid of tbe potato
bugs, which were quite numerous, by driving
flocks of turkeys into the potato lieids. The
turkeys soon Ami the larva: ou the under side of
the leaves and the beetles too if any are there
aud they will go to the field everyday until the
pests are completely cleaned out. The beetle, or
fully formed potato bug, lays its eggs on the
uudcr side of the leaf, and it is llio larva- or
grub that destroys the plants. After a time tbe
nuwincd larvse becomes a winged beetle and
Dies away to deposit its eggs elsewhere. The
turkeys devonr the larva;, large and small,
while chickens do not see them, as they gen
erally pick their food froiL the ground. A few
broods of young turkeys at this reason will clear
lb bugs frotu a large pal:h in two days.
John At ten, Esq., of tie Watsontown lltcord,
becomes a little unruly in bis party sometimes,
and cuts up some queer antics. Lately be an
nounced himself as a caud date for Prolhonotary
upon certain conditions, bit when "Boss" Eich
holtz found thut John was likely to gel iu ear
nest, he at once scut for h in and compelled him
to withdraw. A brother of Mr. Auteu is al
ready nominated by the Democratic committee,
and John had no business o interfere, heuce he
was made to withdraw. Auten has now the pro
mise of a fat office for withdrawing, and we
would not be surprisr4 if he carried an agree
ment in bis poekcts Tor the ippolnlmcut of next
depnty Sheriff.
There seems to be a gtneral move among
publishers to secure the npcal of tbe. odious
postal law pasted by the last Congress. As
claimed, it is really an indinct tax npon pub
lishers, to require the pre-payment of postage,
aud imposes a great burden upon a class who
can least afford to bear i', for experience lias
shown that almost without exception they have
ben compelled to send papers free of postage.
They arc thus paying more taan oue-ialf the
regular newspaper postage of the country. The
change in the law doubling postage on transient
matter Is not less obnoxious, and si on Id be
promptly repealed.
Bl'Rr.LART. On Monday eveuit;!: of this week
the residence of Dr. M;;rr. of Lewisjurg, was
eutcred by some oue aud a gold wate'i, several
rings and other jewelry was stolen. Tic valua
bles belonged to Miss Nettie Bowmen, t niece of
Dr. Marr. It is supposed the burglary as com
mitted about 9 o'clock iu the evening, wbeu mo?t
of the family were in attendance it the Univer
sity proceedings. Those who were at home were
at the front door, which leads to Uie opinion the
theft was committed by some oue who had
either hidden In the house during the day or had
entered from the alley in the rear. No suspicion
as yet attaches to any one.
The duplicates and papers fur the collection
of the different districts in the ounty are not yet
completed, although the Democratic Commis
sioners bave two clerks employed in the office.
Why is it that the editor of the Democrat don't
complain about it. We suppose that as soon as
finished steps will be taken to collect the taxes
at once, and both collectors and tax payers will
be hurried np to make up for the deficiency of
time wnsted to get out the duplicates.
The argument of the lieccber and Tillon case
closed on last week, when tbe jury retired, and
np to this writing (Wednesday evening) have
been unable to agree npon a verdict. They have
been out for six days, and the chances are that
they wi'.l not agree.
The U. S. sieaiiispiilp, Tennessee, sailed for

From the Herald of June
24th.
The new jiowder mill of Mr. A. S. Speccc,
near Trevortou, was started on Thursday last
and is working splendidly, with all he orders
he can fill. Considering that everything per
taining to this mill was completely destroyed in
the last explosion, the rebuilding is considered
quick work. Mr. Peter Shipmuu of Boyle's
Ruu was the boss mill-wright.
On Sunday last ns Mr. Nathan Swank, a
farmer liviug uear Elysburg, and Mr. Frank
Llewellyn, of Shamnkln, were driving down a
hill near the former place, the hold-back strap
broke causing the horse to run away, throwing
the inmates of the buggy out. They fortnnatc-
ly escaped with u few scratches and slight
bruises.
Monday at noon as little Joseph Wooilcy, in
fant son of Mr. Geo. Wooilcy, East Sunbury
street, was playing on the porch at his grand
father's (Mr. Euocb Jones) ou East Commerce
street, he fell to the ground, a distance of about
13 feet, striking on his head. It was feared he
would live but a few hours, but at this writing
the little fellow is apparently in a fair way of
recovery. He is almost fourteen mouths old and
a very interesting child.
The grand pic-nic and parade which had been
advertised to come off on the 3d of July uudcr
tbe auspices of tbe Sliamokin Guards, has been
postponed until some time in September next.
Tbe company had all their invitations out and
everything augured a most complete success
when the trouble among the miners spoilt the
programme and it was thought best to postpone.
It will be a success ret.
On Mouday evening a pecnliar and very paiu-
rul accident occurred at the bakery and confec
tionery of M. V. Bowman, on Independence
street, in front of which is a porch containing a
cellar-way through the centre of which runs one
of the Joists of the porch. Mr. J. R. Stout, of
Trenton, X. J., agent for a wholesale confec
tionery establishment in that city, was standing
on this porch conversing with Mr. Bowman,
when boy employed by Mr. 15. opened the cel
lar door juet back of Mr. Stout, who stepped
buck and fell with his side on Ibc joist and would
have falleu into the cellar had not Mr. B. caught
him. He sustained serious Internal injury ai d
on Monday night it was feared he would die, but
we ore glad to state he is now ou a fair way of
recovery. Ho is kindly cured for at Mr. Bow
man's residence. He has a wife and family In
Tn-ntou.
Accidents at the Mines. Alexander Ignat
aich, a miuer working at Luke Fiddler colliery,
had his leg fractured by a fall of coal on Friday
afternoon last.
On Tuesday about 1 o'clock a terrible accident
occurred at Buck Ridge colliery, by which Ed
ward Troy, familiarly known as Edward Leonard,
bad tbe right side of his head smashed in by a
fall of top coal, killing him instantly. Yester
day seven weeks ago he was married to Bridget
Hickey, daughter of Stephen Hiekey, on East
Sunbury street, with whom they lived. He was
spoken of ua n very exemplary and steady young
man. At the same lime his helper, John Cliesna,
had three ribs broken and was badly scratched
aud bruised though not dangerously injured. He
is alfco married and lives on South Franklin
street.
James Hardin resides in Buffalo Mountain
when he is at home, but occasionally comes to
Milton with a two-horse team. He made one of
these vUila on Wednesday, and, after transact
ing his business, concluded to commence bis
fourth of July celebration by filling himself with
tanglefoot. About four o'clock p. ci. be was
seen to leave the saloon at the corner of Frout
and Broadway, turn down the latter street, and
get iuto his wagon, driving towards Front street,
in turning the corner of which he lost his bal
ance aud fell out of the wagon, but was not
hurt. Policeman Creiizer assisted him into the
wagon, and he started dowu Front street, bnt
soon came to grief, as he fell out again when op
posite the HiitT House, and this time received an
ugly gash in his bead. Dr. J. H. Miles Impell
ing along pcwcd up the wound. Policeman
Crcitzcr conveyed him to the lock-up, and some
benovoleut citizen put his team in a stable to
await the recovery of their master. He will
probably realize his situation when he sobers up,
gets out, pays his fine and goes home to be in
terviewed by the old lady. Milton'ian.
Millinery Stoke Robbed. The millinery
store of Miss Kale Black, on Market square,
was robbed on Monday night, under the follow
ing circnrnBtaDces : About 8 o'clock a lady
called and paid a bill to Miss Kate. After
which, the eveniug being warm, and the band
playing on the Square, she in company with a
number of other ladies, went to the front door to
enjoy the music. She remained there some time
with her frieuds, when upon going iuto her store
she discovered that her purse and a box contain
ing tho money she had taken In last week had
been stolen. The thief evidently entered the
store while the ladies were in frott. Yesterday
morning the box which had contained the money
was found at the foot of the lot. Miss Black is
unable to tell the exact amount stolen, but she
estimates that at least fifty dollars was taken.
Three men were arrested yesterday, but nothiug
criminating them could be shown and they were
released. We were told by an officer who made
an examination of the premises, that tbe thief
is evidently some one who is not unacquainted
with Miss Black's store. Daily of Wednesday.
On Satnrd.tv G. A. Bowersox, son of Samuel
Bowersox, told his wife he was going to the barn
to put the gears on the horses, as ho had some
work to do, and remaining longer than nsual
she went out to see where he reinaiucd so long,
when he was found lying behind the horses In a
state of unconsciousness. He was carried to
the house and a physician summoned with all
possible haste. The physician pronounced it a
severe stroke of apoplexy, oue side being severely
paraii.ed. At this writing, Tuesday, Mr. Bower
sow has rallied a good bit, and he Is thought to
to be out of danger. He is quite a young man,
which makes the case a very singular one. Mf

As Centennial year approaches the spirit of
celebrating every important event connected with
our revolutionary history is rising higher in the
scale of patriotism, and more general through
out the Uniou. The old feud between tbe two
sections of our common country is last passing
away, and a more substantial national feeling to
day is manifested through the Intermingling of
those of all sections at the celebrations which
have already taken place. North Carolina has
had her Mecklcnberg celebration, Massachusetts
her Concord and Bunker Hill celebration, in
which all participated in acknowledgment of the
grand results of tbe heroic struggle of tbe
united colonics. Let us rejoice over the fact
that we are a united Republic that tho bloody
page recently added to our history is but an ele
ment of strength to the uniou of States estab
lished by the blood of our patriotic ancestry one
hundred years ago. We see In the journals
throughout the country, that preparations are
making to celebrate tbe coming 4th. Let ns
raise the Stars and Stripes iu our Park, and join
iu the general jubilee.

Frighttcl Accident. On Saturday after
noon Mr. Jacob Bride, of Lewisburg, was en
gaged in repairing the roof on Mr. Samuel Ma
thew's stable, a rain came np, and after the sky
had again cleared, Mr. Bridge attempted to Cnish
the job. In walking over the wet roof his feet j
slipped and he fell to the ground. On being car- j
ried to bis son's residence it was found several
ribs were broken and oue lung badly injured
from a rib tearing into It. The in juries are such
that it Is scarcely possible for tbe wounded man
to recover. '
TnE term of the governor elected this year in
Pennsylvania will be three years ; after that fu
ture incumbents will 6erve four years. Thus
the coining term will expire simultaneously with
that of the Lieulenaut Governor, General Latta
having last fall been elected for four years.
We learn from the Lock Haven Republican
that a miserable scallawag tried to "come it"
over a former Miifiiiihurger. This is what that
paper says : A tblef tried to break into tho
residence of our foreman, Geo. R. Eilcrt, last
Tuesday nlghl, and had he succeeded George's
"form" might have been "pied," ns money was
evidently the object. The bnrglar got a wrong
"Impression" of printers, and his act is "proof"
thereof. Georgo has provided himself with a
donble barreled "shooting-stick" and now has
no fears that his "nnoin" will bo "(squabbled."
A Card ofThankM.
The officers and members of Sunbury Steam
Fire Co., No. 1, of Sunbury, desire, through us
their representatives, to acknowledge the kind
nesses, courtesies and hospitalities extended to
them on the occasion of their recent visit to Al
Icnlown, Reading and Harristmrg.
Unfeigned thanks are due to the entire fin?
departments vf tto ettlcv. mill milcularly to
"Good Will" Fire Co., of Alientow n, "Rainbow"
Fire Co., of Reading, and "Hope" Fire Co., of
HurrUburg, whose special gncsts we were ; and
to the chief engineers and assistants of the com
panies ; but, most of all, our acknowledgments
arc due lo the lad!c.' Their bright smiles ami
beaming beauty, their woving haudkerchiefs,
their boquets and wreaths of choicest and fra
graut flowers, wiil dwell with us sweet and pie--
cious memories forever. To T. II. Good,
the accomplwhrcT flavor of Allentown, to the
councils and citizens of that city ; to citizens of
Reading who united with our brother firemen in
tendering ns a welcome.
To the courteous Mayor f Harrishnrg and
the councils and citizens of that city, we return
sincere thritiks for kiud attentions and open
hear'.ed hospitality. Also, to the landlords of
the "Cross Keys" Hotel, of Allentown, "Berks
County House," of Readiug, aud "Slate Capitol
Hotel, of Harrisburg, for unceasing efforts to
render onr stay pleasant.
Our thanks are also due to the gentlemanly
correspondents of the Sunbury American and
Sunbury Dally, H. D. Wharton aud F. K. Hill,
Esqs., who accompanied ns, for tbe graphic de
scriptions of our trip published iu the papers
which they represented.
We left home on the 15th ult., anticipating
an enjoyable trip, but uot expecting an ovation.
We returned oil the evening of the 1 StU ult.,
among the most delighted and satisfied of men.
We cannot find fitting terms to speak of our re
ception at Allentown by the fire department, the
welcome by the Mayor, councils and citizens,
aud the banquet by the ladies. Our reception at
Harriehurg, characterized by the s.-.mc warmth
of feeling and profuse hospitality, exceeded any
thing we could have hoped for. To all our
friends we say with sincerity, our visits were of
unmingled pleasure, and the 15th, lOtli, 17th and
18th of June will be kept in memory as among
the most pleasant days of our lives. We anx
iously await for the time when you will prompt
us to reciprocate. Now we can only renew ex
pressions of thanks. We have no command of
words adequately to convey the feeliugs of Ihe
heart.
Wc are indeb ted to the officer of the several
railroads over w hich wo passed, and to conduc
tors of trains for kiud aud prompt attention.
In behalf of Sunbury Steam Fire Company,
No. 1, we are gratified aud obliged.

' The Wrong Side of the Meridian.
On the down hill side of life, which an old
medical writer quaintly terras "the wrong side
of the meridian," when the functions decay and
the. frame gradually bends under the weight of
years, tbe system requires to be sustained under
the bnrden Imposed upon it. Innumerable
physicial ailments and infirmities then press up
on It to which it bad been in earlier life a strang
er. The surest and pleasantest support nnd so
lace of declining years is fouud iu Hostctter's
Stomach Bitlers, long recognized as the most
wholesome and agreeable of diffusible stimu
lants, the most potent of tonics and alteratives.
The aged and infirm may place implicit confi
dence in this invigorating elixir, which uot only
checks those maladies to which elderly peisons
are peculiarly subject, hut in a measure retards
the encroachment of time npon the constitu
tion. July 2, 1S75 1 mo.

"TltE LTGnT'RUNNINf "DOMESTIC"'
The 'Doniefttie.
Tli? DOMESTIC" is an exceedingly simple
machine in all its parts aud processes. It is
easily understood ; familiarity with ils action is
very quickly acquired, and it need hardly any
: ,i ! .i ... ...
! r''f lu sm.i m ' operator.
'Do-
MESTir" are mainly :
1. Light Running.
2. IJuietness no Cams or Gear Wheels.
. Terfect Stitch Donble-tbread lck Stitch.
4. Durability arising from Simplicity of Con
struction. 5. Absence of all Friction.
6. Great ranire of Work.
7. Ease of Operation.
We do not say that the "Domestic" is the only i
Machine worthy of public favor. We admit f
there are some possessing real and acknow- !
ledged merit ; bnt we do claim, and are prepared !
lo demonstrate, that the "Domestic' has many '
excellences that render it decidedly tuperior to '
any oUttr Machuu now net ore tbe public.
Let every woman, therefore, examine for her
self into its merits when sho buys a machine.
This is an important purchase, not to be care
lessly made ; one that will influence her com
fort, probably for a long time. With a "Domes
tic" iu her possession, she will find her sewing
become a pleasant exercise of skill and taste, in
stead of a slow manual drudgery ; she will have
the time and strength to add beauty and elegance
to work in which before she has been obliged to
content herself with bare ntility.
