The Crops and Prices,
The harvest has been gathered, and the
barns of our farmers are well tilted with grain
of a superior quality. There will be no lack
of bread, and the price of flour mu-t rule
considerably lower than it did throughout
last year. This will afford s- :ne slight relief
to the laboring classes, who fiud it difficult
to make their scanty turnings meet all th
demands ur.de upon them, But the rebel
experienced from an abundant crop will be
on'y partial and c -mparauvely slight. There j
wi.l be no considerable reduction in the price ;
cf the thousand and oue articles which tn'er
into the consumption of every family in the i
.iand. Clothing, groceries aud almost every
thing which is needed will soon continue to ;
rule at high pr.ces so long as gold stands at
its present rate ol preraiu n and the only tnon j
ey in circulation is a depreciated paper cur

keep goods of all kinds up to exorbitant fig- !
tires preventing a returu ol 1"W prices and !

At a meeting of the Democratic Standing
Committee and others of the Convention,held
at the the Court House in TtiDkhannoek, on
evening of 19th August, 18G7. Meeting cal
ibd to order by Maj L. C. Conklin, Ahira

Vaughn and Nathan Kline Esqr.'s, Vice Pres
iJents ; Davenport Iladley and John G.
Spaulding. Secretaries ; Object of Meeting
stated by II m. Win, M. Piatt. Meeting ad
dressed by Hon. Win. M. Piatt, II >n. R. R.
Little and Ahira Gay, E-qrs.. The follow
ing icsolutions were unanimously adopted :
MR. LITTLE offered the following :
WHEREAS, The desperate eagprness of the
' party in power to maintain its upieruaey,has
exhibited itself in nothing more emphatically
than in its activity in the support of its local
presses,(the chief instrumentalities of assault
! upon, and misrepresentation of the motives,
principles, aft 1 purposes of the Democratic
party) while those members of that party
whose fi lebty to tin- principles of the Fathers
has withstood all hope of official preferment,
all expectation of profit (rum government
patronage, and all the appliances and allure
■ , mt-nls of shoddy, have contended themselves
■ with mere protests against the great public
I wrongs winch they were lor the time power
j Jess to avert, and
VT'.'iUREAS, The best and most efficient
means of vindicating those principles consists
|t. the liberal supp >rt and enlargement of the
j circulation of the local conservative journals
'of the county. Therefore,
! 1 Resolved —That the Democratic Standing
Commit te of this County aro instructed to
take into c moderation the bet means of en
: larging the circulating of the Wyoming i)eni*
' ucrut ;
2 That every Democrat in the County
owes it to himself and to his country, to
heartily Ci". opei ate in this movement not
j niy by subecrintng, but by exerting his in
tluence in tins behalf.
MR PI AT I', uffareJ 'ho following
1. Resolved —That the Democratic party in
ihe nomination of the Hon. George Shars
wuoii for the high position of Judge of the
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania—have mani
fested much wisdom in the selection of a can
: delate eminently qualified by experienced
uc-Uion, an l talent, to fill the office with
credit to himself and honor to the great State
of Pennsylvania.
2. That hereaftcf the Democratic party I
jof Wyoming County hold each anl every j
v<-ar on the M otiy eveuing of August,
j Court, an annua! meeting of the party, and '
[h ,t tiiis be one,of the Standing Rules of the \
\ Democritic party —and that the chairman of
! of the Democratic Committee call said Meets
ing at least six weeks before the time of
I meeting.
3. That the proceedings be published in
the W}oming Democrat.
HOW TO BUILD A CISTERN.
You desire to build a Cistern that will
i do aw ay with the necesity of a well, it can
be effectually and satisfactorily aeeom- <
plished bv the following metlioil ; —Coin-
It etc the Ci.-.tern by thoroughly cementing
the walls as usual ; then build np in the
centre, with soft brick, cement and sand
for tit >rtar, a square box to hold, say a
barrel of water. Into this box insert your
pump pipe—the water will filter through
the brick and keep a constant supply of j
water clear as crystal and ready for use,
filtered in the in >st perfect manner. We
got this idea from our townsman, Mr John [
F. Lewis, of large experience in cistern
building in England, and we are adopting
it at our own dwelling Any one can read
tlv perceive that water which passes
through brick must necessarily be thor
oughly filtered. All tilings being equal
rain water is admitted to be better lor
; drinking than even well water. — I'itlston
, Crazeltc.
LYING IN Ht:n.—lt is often a question
among people who are unacu minted with
the anatomy and physiology of men, wheth
er King with head exalted or level with
I the b dy, is the most wholesome. Most,
consulting their own ease on this point, ar- j
' gue in favor cf that which they prefer.
Now, all hough many delight in bolster
ing np then heads at night, and sleep
soundly without in'nry, yet we declare it ,
to be a dmgerous habit. The vessels in j
which the blood passes from tiie heart to j
the head are always lessened in their cavi- j
ties when the head is resting in bed higher
than the body ; therefore, in all diseases at
i tended with fever, the head should be
pretty nearly ona.level with the body ; and
people ought to accustom themselves to i
sleep thus, and avoid danger. — Medical j

\ NOVEL ADVERTISEMENT. —The fol
lowing novel matrimonial advertisement
recently appeared in a Western paper :
"I am eighteen years of age, have a good
set of teeth, and beleive in Andy Johnson,
tiie star spangled and the 4th of July. I
have taken up a State lot, cleared up eight
t en acres last year, and seeded ten of it
down. My buckwheat looks first rate,
and the oats and potatoes are bully. I j
have got nine sheep, a two year old bull j
and two heifers, besides a house and barn.
I want to buy bread and butter, hoop
skirts and waterfalls tor some persons of
the female persuasion- dining my life—
That's what's the matter with me. But I
' don't know how to do it."
THE EAGLE.
i
lie clasps the crag with hooked hands,
(To-e to the sun in lonely lands.
Ringed with the azure world he stands. !
The wrinkled sea beneath hitn crawls,
lie watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.
Tennyson. ;
A Western critic thus travesties the lau
reate's eagle:
THE EAGLE.
Tilth hooked claws he clasps ye fence,
Close by yo hen-roost ; gazing thence,
lie spies a mice what's got no sense.
Yc mice beneath can't well see him,
lie watches from his lofty limb,
' Then jumpeth down and grabbeth him.
He tints draws bis conclusion,
The difference fwix the two I now will paint
His i agio's wild, and mv eagle ain,t.

Dr, SCHCNCK'S IMUI.MOVICH SYRUP
This great medicine cured Dr. J 11. SCIIENCK, the
Proprietor, of Pulmonary Consumption, wheu it had
assumed its most formidable aspect .and when speedy
death appeared to he inevitablo. Ilia physicians
pronounced his case incuraiile, when he commenced
the use of this simple hut powerful remedy. llis
health was restored in a very short time, and no re
turn of the disease has been apprehended, for all the
symptoms quickly disappeared, anl his present
weight is more thin two hundred pounds.
Since his recovery, he has devoted his attention
exelusi/ely to '.he cure of Consumption, and the dis
eases which are usually complicated with it, and the
cures effected by his medicines have been very nu
merous and truly won lerful. Dr. SCHEXCK makes
profess onal visits to several of the larger citie
weekly, where he has a largo concourse of patients,
and it is truly astonishing to see pa ir conusinpti ves
that have to be lifted out of their carriages, and iu
a few months healthy, robust jiersons. Dk
SCHEXCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP, SEAWEED
TONIC, and MANDRAKE PILLS are general!;
all required in curing Consumption. Full directions
accompany each so that any one can take them
without seeing 2'r. SCHEKCK, but when it is con
venient it is best to see bim. He gives advice free
but for a thorough examination with his Respirome
ter his lee is tnree d liars.
Please observe, wben pur> hasing, that the two
likenesses of the Doctor—ono when in the last stsge
of Consuuiptioi, and the other as be now is,'in per

Thomas' Patent Atmospheric
CIIU R N DA S Ik,
Patented May 7th, 1867. *
Tht most Important and Valuable Intention of
the 19 ly Century,
1. The Dasher is superior to any other, by being
as simple us the oM <Uher, ami combining the at -
mospheric principle therewith, and the Butter Gith
ere|.
2. It is superior to aii others, inasmuch as the
same power applied to this in like mechanical oper
ations will mako one-fourth more reciprocations.
:i. It is superior to all others, inasmuch as it pro
duces in a much shorter timo.
4 It is superior to any other, inasmuch as it pro
duces a much better quality oi liutter.
Lastly it is superi -r to any other, Patent Ch'irn ,
inasmuch as it is 500 per cent, cheaper than any
other.
It is well known to Dairymen and others, that
Cutter is contained in minute globules or sacks cov
ered with a membrane, and requires the action of
air to prepare ihe covering to tie removed by tric
tion. Too Scientific American says :
"If creaui is dashed against hard substance or
mashed between liars or rollers.it breaks the globules
and becomes oily, by destroying 'he grain It
should be thrown into currents and counter-currents
by the action of air, causing a friction by the cur
rents against each other, removing the coveting
without breaking or bursting the globules."
Tins is the principle which the inventot of this
Dasher endeavored to keef in view, and the result
shows amu h
LARGER YIELD OF BI TTER OBTAINED IN
LESS TIME THAN ANY OTHER DASHER
Experiments have p.rovcn that any other method
except pumping air through ibo ere no ,wiil not pen
etrate sufficiently to oxygenize all the globules pre
purafory to concentrating the butter. Throwing it
into the air by id appcrs of old fashioned D isbera,
does not sufficiently expose it to the air to bring out
tiie Butter.

TOA'TS
As an Tnvcsimenl.
i The rspi! progress of the Union Pacific Railroad
| now building: west from Omaha, Nebraska, anil for
ming, wi'h its western c mnectians, in unbroken line
j across the continent, attracts attention to the valuo
lof the First Mortgage Lintels which the Company
I now offer to the public. The first question a-ke I by
| prudent investors is, "Are tha°e bonds secure
i Next, "are they a pri fitable in vestment 1" to reply
I in briel ;
Ist. The early completion of the whole great line
• to the Pacific is as certain as any future hu in ss
1 even.Van be. The Government grant of over twen
ty ml lion acre? of land and fifty million dollars in
I its own boni: pr.teti ally guarantees it. One fourth
. of the Work is already Lone, and tho track continues
t lo be laid at the rate of two miles a day.
i 2d The Union Pacifi- Railroad bond.- are issued
' upon what promises to be one of the most profitable
; lines of railroa lin tha country. For many years it
| must be the only line coiue-ctiug tho Atlantic and
Pacific; and being without competition, it can main
! tain remunerative rates,
I 3d 425 miles o) this road are finished, and fully
, e , - nipped with de ots, lor .motives, cars, Ac., and

6th. Their amotiat is is strie'ly limited by law to
a sum equal to wh.it is granted by the U. S. Gov
ernment, and for wbi bit takes a second lien as its ,
| security. 'J bis amount upon tho firsi 517 miles west
fr uii Amain is only S'ti 000 per mile
7lh The fact that /he U. S. Government eonsid
eis a second lien upon the road a good investment,
and that some of the shrewdest rai'ro.id builders of
the country have alread- paid in five million del- j
l.irs upon the stock (which is to them a third lien), '
may well Inspire cotifi lenee in a first iien.
6th. .Although it is uot claimed that there can be
any better securities that Governments, there are
parties who consijer a first mortgage upon such a
property as this the very best sceuriiy in the world, j
and who sell their Governments to re-invest in these I
bonus—thus securing a greater interest.
9th. As the Union Pacific Railroad bnds are offer- I
ed for the ) resent at 90 cents on the dollar ar.d ae- !
crued interest, they are the cheapest security in the
market, being over 15 per cent, less than U. 6. !
Stocks.
