One not familiar with our town might suppose,
from our frequent references to bri Iges, that the
town, like Venice, was a " sea-girt island," a sort of
city on a sea. Indeed we are blessed, or cursed —
as one chooses to have it—with our full complement
of bribes. We also have .,goodly aapply of-terra

The Canal Rtidgcw
Which for sotne months put have been in such
condition as to furnish a rubject for bitter, and some
times unrea.-4jn.ible complaints, are now being put in
such condition as wiil oblige all croakers OR canal
bridges to hunt upanother theme on which they may
gratify their morbid, cmplaining propensities.
Three entirely new bridges of good width, built in
the very best manner, ana of the very best material,
are now being put up.
With all persons familiar with the facts in rela
tion to the bridges, the company are less deserving
ofeen-ure for what may have appeared to some, an
uiiexcuiable neglect than these chronic complainers
will allow. We shall prob bly adv-rt to this subj -ct
at some future time, in order to show that there has
beeu but little reason far the censure which has been
so freely bestowed upon the company. While it is a
fact that many of our citizens and business men have
suffered much inconvenience for want of the lower
bridge it also is a fact that they ina le less com plaint
than some of those busy bodies who were actually
benehtted by having trade and travel diverted to
ward their business places.
That.ka.
We are under many obligations to several friends
in different part* of the County who have recently
taken an interest in the su-cess of the Democrat,
which they have manifested in a pactical business
like manner by calling the attention of their friends
And neighbors to the importance of subscribing for it-
By the aid of these true friends, and by our own ef
forts to make our paper a necessity in every house
hold in the county, we have greatly increased its
circulation and consequent usefulness since August
last.
Let the gwd work go on ! With a little effort on
tba part of one or two persons in each township, our
circulation could be in.re.-isod at least one-third.- -
We would than ba enabled to make the paper, if
one third batter than it now is. Democrats
should bear in mind that the success of our princi
ples depends upon the knowledge the masses possess
of them. This is best attained through a live Dem
ocratic local paper—such as wo propose to print.
Leaves Have Their Time to Fall, &e.
A few evenings since we chanced to observe a dev
otee of bnccbus, who, apparently, had imbibed too
freely of the •' anti-prohibitory excitement," which
so recently swept over the " hub of the universe,"
endeavoring to bold tip a lamp post that he was
grasping in loving embrace, but in spite of his efforts
he wojlJ come to the ground or the ground would
come to him —he could hardly decide which. The
scene was eminently sugges/ive, an i called to our
mind the following stanza, said to have originated
with a poet in one of his bacchanalian reveries. The
sentiment rather than the pastry is suggestive :
" Leaves have their tine to fall, so have I ;
Bat the difference 'twixt the leaves an 1 mo
Is, that 1 falls harder and more frequently."

New Bridge.
The abutments to the new bridge at the mouth of
Swail Brook, iu this Borough, are BOW being put in
position, and, judging from the work already done,
are to be a permanent fixture This is an im
provement which has long been needed, and when
completed we trust will be a substantial structure.
The tax payers of our Borungh have been called up
on several times during the put ten years for funds
to re-huild the bridge at the mouth of Swail Brook,
and it has been a constant draft upon the exchequer
of our Borough from time immemorial. But the
prospect now is that this state of affairs will come to
an and, and we are to have a bridge " as is a bridge,"
albeit we have it to pay for. The site of the new
bridge is just north of the old one, and a touch bet
ter locn tion on this account. The bridge is to he
completed sometime during the coming year at a
cost of SISOO.
The Oil (Question.
MR, EDITOR :
When I handed you the article writ
ten and " modestly signeJ" by myself. I had no wish
to get Into a personal controvesty with anybody,
much less with one " used to writing for the papers,'
and so surcharged with elegant grammar, brilliant
rhetoric and scathing satire, as he who signs himself
J. W. Rhodes—omitting the M. D., because he has
no legitimate right to use it !
My position was taken not against any individual,
bat against the oil, whether sold in Tunkhannock,
Meshoppen, Mehoopany or elsewhere—confident that
I science and experiment would uphold me. lam
; willing to fight it out on that line; and you shall
see who should retract, and who " is profoundly ig
norant of the laws of chemical combinations." J.
VT. R. is no doubt the possessor of much olium cum
dxsnitatc. And all admit that bis effort exhibits
rare attainments, surprising fairness and intelligence
Pitt spoke once upoa " the crime of being a young
man;" and to be called " innocent and unoffensive"
is decidedly complimentary !
He very correctly assumes that I do not know that
benzine joined with the other constituents of his oil
becomes non-explosive. On the contrary I can prove
that its character is essentially unchanged. I have
satisfied witnesses that this oil and b nzine act very
similarly : that an infiamable gas may be generated
from each by slight heat. Ac The proper appa
ratus for proving further than this, and conclu
sively, the danger of the article, is that used by Gov
ernment InsjiCctoas lor the 'j fire test," and of course
cai.not be obtained bere. It is a query, not to me
nulne, bow J. IV R. can consistently make the as
sertions ho does when he has witnessed (I have tes
timony) the dangerous threatenings of several lant|>s
when his own reservoir oi oil took fire from holding a
han l-lamp over it- and yet talk about " veracity."
(Lull unyon ask for a plainer example of " honesty
undone V I also have statements quite as credita_
trie as bis, that the Eureka will not burn so long a.
Kerosene, and its illuminating properties are certain
ly inferior. None but scientific individuals will ap
preciate fully his essay on oxygen- capital illustra
tion, only it appl'es on the wrong side ' for oxygen
is not chemically combined (though ictiinately mijced
with nitrogen) in the atmosphere ; anil I can con
vince anyone who will call, that if benzine be at nil
combined in his oil. 'he affinity is so slight that a
moderate degree of heat will disengage it in the
furui of vapor or gas. Still that illustration is about
as relevant as the jumbled fable.
Practical arguments are not wanting I could
mentiou several prominent cases in which the oil
was tried and abandoned, even before its public con
demnation They did not like its behavior. Now
I can enumerate others, if necessary. It is simply
safe as benzine .which all know to be the unsafe part
obtained troin crude potroleum during the process of
refining.
There may be those who doubt my authority in
this matter, an 1 wi;l not satisfy themselves by see
ing the incomplete exjieriiuents I am prepared to
make, Allow me therefore to offer an extract from
a letter written by Mr C. P. Matthews, a practical
chemist,one of the firm of Matthews Bros.,oil dealers,
Scranton, Pa. I hare uo doubt I can elicit any de
sirable amount of similar testimony from the highest
authorities. AoJ I assure J W. R. that it was not
written out of " malice" toward him, for his fame
has never reached so far. Mr. Matthews says :
" The fcureka oil or any other oil that has i.ny Ben
zine, Gasoline, Benzole or Xuptba in its composition
wiil explode ; and, in my opinion, the man does not
live who can combine anything with the lightest
portion of Petroleum (which is Benzine) that wil'
make it non-explusire."
To ail fair minds this must be conclusive

The necessity of a due proportion of iron in the
blood is well known to all medical men ; when it
becomes reduced from any cause whatever,the whole
system suffers, the weakest part being first attacked,
and a feeling or languor, lassitude, and "all gone
ness" pervades the system Stimulants only afford
TEMPORARY RELIEF, and have the samo effect as giv
ing a tired horse the whip instead ot oats. The tiuo
remedy is to supply the blool with the necessary
quantity of iron. This can be done by using the
PERUVIAN SYUUP.
a protected solution of the protoxide of Iron, which j
is so prepared that it assimilates at once with the j
blood, giving strength, vigor and new life to the ;
whole system
To ta'.e medicine to cure diseases occasioned by
a deficiency of IRON IN THE BLOOD, without re
storing it to the system, is like trying to repair a J
buil ting when the foundation is gone.
An eminent divine says : "I have been using the
Peruvian Syrup (or some time past ; it gives me
new vigor, buoyancy of spirits, elasticity of muscle."
Pamphlets containing certificates of cures, and
recommendations from some of the most eminent
physicians, clergy men and others, will be sent free
