A Card. The undersigned having failed in prfee ting his arrangement for the publication of a democratic n.wsp iper at Scranton, by reason of circumstances unexpected and beyond his control, has transferred the paid subscription list to the Wyoming Democrat —believing this paper one of the truest exponents of sound Democratic principles in Northern Pennsylva nia—and believing that this arrangement will prove satisfactory to ail_concerned E S. WESTCOTT. The above card explains itself. A number of per sons who are no w subscribers to our paper were on the list furnished us by Mr. Westcott; such will receive a v red it on their subscriptions to this paper by calling at our office.

We buvo read the book and can truthfully sty that it co nes up to the standard ex pressed in the advertisement, as a liteiaay trial of the highest order It seems to be a work for every reading man, aside from his political creed; the truth of this, is attestcJ by the avidity which all parties show in their eagerness to secure the work. — The first volume is already out, anl the second will bs published next winter.

But larger, by hundreds multiplied into millions, than the doomed band who rode to swilt destruction in Tennyson's p>em. is the great cavalcade of unhap py men who are rushing to untimely graves, follow ed by the gaunt spectre Dyspepsia.

Fowle A SOD, Boston, Mass., are the .poja-ietora. Highway Robbery,—A bold robbery waj com mitted about a mile from Lenoxville, Susquehanua. County, on the 27th day of May, about eight o clock in the morning. Mr. Sylvester Coon, having staid at my house over night, left at about seven o'clock io the morning to go to Mr. Van Et ten's. While passing through a piece of woods he was startled by a man who came out of the woods direct% to him, presented a pistol and demanded his money, and said, " I am a highwayman and you are a dead man if you do not give up your money in stantly." Mr. Coon gave him a pocket-book con taining a little more than four dollars. The robber insisted that be had thore money, and proceeded to examine his pockets. Mr. Coon seized hold of the pistol, when a severe struggle ensued and Mr. Coon was thrown upon the ground, still holding on to the pistol. He then cned murder, and was heard nearly half a mile. The robber then attempted to seize him by the throat, but being prevented he placed his foot upon his mouth, bruising the upper lip con siderably. Mr. Coon called as though he saw some one coming, telling him to hurry as fast as possible, when the robber told him if be would let him have his pistol he would leave him, which he did, and he left him. Mr. Coon describes him as being a man something over twenty years of age, of medium height, light complexion, with small hoot—about No. 6. lie is no doubt a resident of this immediate vi cinity. Mr. Coon came here a little before sunset the night previous, and inquired at a store in the presence ot several persons, if any one knew of a horse that was for sale. Some one said ho thought Mr. Van Elten might have one. The supposition doubtless was, that he bad money to purchase a horse. Mr Coon and the citizens of Lenoxviile will pay a reward of SIOO to any one who will cause the arrest and conviction of the robber.— Cor. Montrose Republican. Sidewalk Etiquette.—Ooly villagers, or per sons with rural ideus, any longer contend that ladies shall always be given the ir.side of the pavement in passiDg. The rule adopted in all cities is to turn to tho right whether the right leads to the wall or the gutter, rind an observance of this common sense rule would obviate much unpleasant crowding by over gallant gentlemen who persistently crowd for tbe outside of the walk. An ther common custom-not required even by fashionable etiquette, and one which is nearly as unexplainable and absurd as the prac tice of a whole string of men filing out of a church pew. making themselves as ridiculous as an awkward squad practicing at " catch-step," in order to give a woman the wrong end of a pew—c r that of a man when at promenade walk with a lady, to keep him self on the outside of the pavement. A little exer cise of judgment will convince any person of the ut ter useiessness of this bobbing hack and forth at ev ery corner. The common rule is this: "If a man and woman are walking together, she should al ways be at his right arm, whether it be to ward tbe insido or the outside of the walk, then the woman will not be shoved against the passers Exchange. Terrible,—On Saturday evening, the 6th inst.. an immense and savage bull broke away from bis drivers, and rushed through the streets Becoming maddened by tbe number of people in his way and when opposite the Company Store be made a furious dish at Miss Lizzie Jenkins, striking her with both his boras and leaviog ber almost lifeless. She was carried into the residence ot V"m. Davis and from thence to her home. Blood issued from ber mouth and ears and she was evidently injured internally.— Dr. Straw-bridge was called, and we learn that she is now sensible, though still in a critical condition. Tbe animal after making the assault proceeded but a little way when a number of men attacked him with bullets, axes and knive*, killing the brute, near Amcnnan's store. The carcass was at first de signed to be burnt by the crowd but was finally hauled away and buried.— Berwick Gazette. Railroads.—Among tbe numerous laws enacted by the late Legislature of this State, having refer ence to railroat} corporations, was the following in teresting to the people of this county : " Incorporating tho Wyoming Valley and Ontario railroad company, with Harvey B. Irghara, C, S, Lafferty, Win. 11. Jessup, Samuel Hoyt, Elmore ID rt-.r. and others, as incorporators. The capital is $1,000,900 to be increased if necessary, and the cor poration is to have the jiower of constructing a rail read from the State line, at or near the Apalarbian or Apolacon creek, in Susq uchanna county, thence southwardly by the valleys of the Apolacon and Wy alusing creeks to the Susquehanna river, crossing the same, and thence by tbe Mehoopnny, Bowman's and Toyby'g creeks, to tbe Wyoming Valley." Church on Fire.—The Episcopal church iu tbis place wag get on fire on Tburgday last by gparks from an engine ou tbe Lehigh Valley railroad. The fire caught in the roof anj threatened to degtroy the entire building ; but by the prompt effortg of tbe fireman irad persons in the vicinity who saw the fire and smoke at an early moment, the flames were sub dued after tearing off a portion of the roof. Tbe damage done to the building, furniture, carpets, Ac, tbe railroad company will doubtless make good.— Pillston Gazette. Died, DAY- In Tunkhannock, on the 6th inst., after a protracted illness, Mrs. Hannah Day, in the 69tb year of her age. BACON—On Sunday, the 7th of June, in Nicholson, at the old Homestead, Sarah, w'dow of the late Nathan Bacon, Esq, aged Eighty-six years and Eight months. The lifo of the deceased, like many of the first settlers in Tunkhannock Valley, might be made the subject of an obituary of many pages of interesting and exciting inridents. Like most early pioneers of a rugged and wild country, sbe suffered many hard ship? and privation? that we ol tbe present day might consider unendurable Her maiden name was Nichols. She was x daughter of Capt. Eli Nichols,wbo served through the Revolution. She wag born in Connecticut and when quite a child the family moved to Catskiil, N. Y. After residing there a few years, they moved to Windsor Broome County, at which place the wag married in 1901. Her husband renting a public bouse which he kept about three years. Then tbey purchased a place near what is now called Piercevilie, and moved there. There being no roads through this country, two dug-out log canoes were lashed togeth er wherein their family and effects were placed, anl down tbe winding Susquehannah River tbey floated, a distance of nearly 200 miles, to tbe mouth of the Tunkhannock Creek. From there up about eight miles, to the place before stated, arriving at a point less than forty miles from place of starting. A log cabin was rolled up with a fire place in one end and a large bole in the hark roof for the smoke to escape. In a short time a saw mill was erected and in opera tion. In 1812 the present Baaon property was purchased by them, where the subject of this notice lived until her death. Soon after moving here they opened a public house, so well known as the "Bacon Hotel," where sbe presided as boiteas for upwards of thirty years, giving entire satisfaction to the traveling pub lie, and her enterprising husband She was a duti ful and frugal companion, a tender and kind hearted mother, a faithful friend and erer ready to sacrifice her own comfort for the relief of the distressed. She raised a family or ten children—two aons and eight daughtors, two others died in iofanoy, besides rais ing five adopted children, one of whom is now the owner of the old homestead. Sbe never attached herself to any organised re ligious society; Sbe placed great reliance upon the merits of her Sarior. She and her husband strongly sympathising with the liberal sentiments entertain- led by Unlverxallitj. Her funeral was attended on i . Tuesday by_ a large concourse of near relatives and sympathizing friends. The services were oooducted j by the Rev. Mr. Boughton, Pastor of the Univer- | salist Society of Brooklyn. Com.
