Contempt of I'ongrcas.—Tho Georgia Nig

Mean.— Somebody —a drunken Almanac maker
.e presume—predicted last Fa 1, that we should
have thirty-six or sixty-six—the pre -ise number we
diiremeniber —of storms this The " Clerk
of the weathsr" seems to be fulfilling tbe prediction
to the letter. Without any apparent necessity for
more snow we have had an addition to the stock on
Inn! alinisf daily ; until now, the sleighing is about
6'teen ply. While we suppose everybody is delight
ed with the good 1 gettin' around," we, like a hun
gry child, begin to long for a sight of eien a small
patch of the bare " bosom of mother earth.'' The
j;reat scarcity of water is beginning to make people
wish fur storms in a more fluid form.
"(.iris a-slnging, Hell* a-ringltig—Our
good-natured and whole-souled townsman, Frank
Bunnell, one evening last week, took two large
sleigh loads of the little ten-year-old girls of town
on a sleigh-ride to the hospitable homestead on the
neck. There were upwards of f >rty of these minia
ture matrons of the lan iin the party. When snug
ly packed into the sleighs c.n 1 keeping time to the
merry jingle of the bells with their songs of mirth,
they looked like two overcrowded moving bird's
nests. The girls returned from this pleasant rife in
good season, r ady, " to a man," to east their rotes
jor Frar.k as the chief executive of these United
h'tates, uho by his many a ts of kindness h is rend
ered hiinseif immensely popular with these fractions
of femininity.
A friend thinks that Frank don't like full grown
women, nor little boys. Wo beg leave to disaent
from this opiaton.
Portrait of t'harl.-s I)!rk -us.--We have re
ceived a very elegant impression of a portrait, on
steel, of Chutes Di -kens, a copy of which the Messrs
Alpleton A Co. arc presenting gratis to every sub
scriber to their new and popular edition of Dickons.
It i- pronounced by goof judges to be the bet of the
distinguished author yet c-xc.uted. Any person re
mitting 51,."50 to D App-leton A CV, New York, will
re-eiie by mail, post-paid, tbe entire set ol I>l kens,
iu seventeen volumes, and the portrait, which is
suitable for framing, as above. The e '.ition of Dick
ens is published in weekly v lumcs, seven of which
are now ready. A copy of tbe p-.rtrait can be seen
at our office, where subscriptions for the books will
be received.
Northern Monthly.—There has been laid on !
oar tahie a copy rf the Northern M .n'hly for .Tanu- i
ary, anl an examination of its piges shows that this
new venture in the world of periodical literature has '
taken a fresh and hopa-fal start. Harriett Pregcott
fford begins a serial stirv. the January portion
jf shich, is. a magnificent prose poem. An article
up n Charles Dickens in America reveals a keen and
terrible pen, an i although the views uf the writer
will call out crilici.-ui, they will also command at
tend n. Oilier contrihutois are Wirt Sikes, who
tells us all "About Philadelphia Mr. Tufts, who

novel way.

Mr. Add sterling of Me.-hopipen, we are informed,
ere about to open an extensive Furniture Store and
Cabinet wire r-aims, in this pliee. An establish
ment of the kin I proposed, cannot, we think, fail to
be remunerative to i s pr j-vctors, as well a? a con
venience to tue public. For the present, they have
sr-ure*l Wall's Hall as a place in which to exhibit
tbeir wares ; a large stock of which will be put up
.v a -hurt time As both of Ihe.-e gentlemen ap~
p.-i:ite the importance ot making their business

tlrcad Hi its,—ln all civilized portions of the
rll, bread has been regarded as an artie'e ,f
(r.ine nocessity—a most excellent thing in a family.
I deed, in su -h high esteem is it hell thit in Eu
r ;e, in times of great scarcity, or when the maferi
l oat of which it is made, is held at too high
prives, what are called "bread riots" occur. Riots
from tho cause above mentioned, rarely, if ever hap
pw. in this country Most rio's, here, spring from a
surp'us of whisky—not from a sear, it 7 of bread.— ]
■Bread is called the "staff of life ' and is said to be
rather more stiffening to the lower extremities tban 1
the other article mentioned. A pure, white, well
bkH article of bread, together with cakes, pies. (
fastry, Ae. can always be luunil at Z. Gray's Bak

Eclipses.—There will be two eclipses of the

Tuning and Repairing,—There are many
| persons in possession of Pianos and Melodeons that
j have been worn a good deal, or perhaps injoied,
1 who could still have a good deal of substantial wear
; out of ihern if they were properly put in order. To
meet this large and increasing demand L. B. Powell
| has added to his Music Store iu Scranton a Repair
Shop, and has put it in charge of a ta tn who has had
large experience both in ihe manufacture ol now in
struments and the repairing of old ones, so that he is
now prepared to do all kinds of repairing, iucluding
; Pianos, Organs, Melodeons, Guitars, Violins, Aceer
deous, anl everything in the shape ot musical instru
meuts, with promptnese and in a substantial manner.

The Great Sale of the Jay property, on the
•Hh ins- in', (northeast corner Broadway and Canal
street), resulted in tbe large store being purchased
by Thomas Smith, and the unexpired lease passing
into the hands of Baldwin, lite clothier, who is pre
.-anting the public with an idea eutircly new to the
Clothing Trade of New Yurii, viz : offers at retail
first-class wholesale slock, ernbra ing all qualities
and styles of Cue and medium garments, at a heavy
discount from wholesale prices! We ure told the
undertaking is a complete success.

Among the many rest' rativis which nature has
i supplied to relieve the afflictions of humanity, there
is no more favorite one for a certain class of diseases
than the "medicinal gum" of tho Wild Cherry Tree;
but h-'tvever vajuabie it is, its power to heal, to
soothe, to relieve and to oure, is enhanced tenfold
by scientific and judicious combination with other
ingredients, in themselves of equal worth This
happy mingling exists to a remarkable degree in
Or. Wistar's Ualsam of Wild Cherry,
whose value in curing C uglis, Col ts, Brunch tis,
Whooping Cough, Croup, Asthma, Pulmonary Af
, feclioa, and Incipient Consumption is inestimable.
