Remember tha grand Musical Convention Con
certs at Scraffton, Thursday and Fridny evenings ef
this week. •
Crowded—Our columns have been crowded for
the past three or four weeks, in order to give plaoe
to the County Statement. More room for general
news next week.
Vendue.—S 3. Dekay, will selt at Vendue, at
his residence, in Clinton Tp., Friday, March 12th, at
10 o'clock, one yoke oxen, 8 cows, 2 heifers, sow,
firming utensils, household furniture, he., Ac.
stating.—The rsin and sleet of Monday night
which froie as it fell, made a fine field for skating
yesterday morning. The boys used the side walks
and other tmoothe places about town, to display
their skill In this healthful and lgorous exercise.
The Humor that there was a case of small-pox
in town near th* jail Is positively asserted by Mr
Martin, whose wife was said to be the victim, to be
talse. As then has been little If any ear* taken to
prevent the spread of the disease, If It did really ex
lit, and as no one else has yet taken It, we presume
the disease was something only resembling that ter
rible scourge, or It may have been the varioloid—a
modified fbrm of that disease.
Kicked by a Horse.— A young man sained
Glenroy Wallace, son of George Wallace, of Lem
on Tp., a few days sine# while driving a team, had
his skull fractured by a kick from one of the hores.
He was found by his father some time after, lying on
bis face. In an Insensible condition. On examina
tion a portion of the skull bone was found to be bro
ken out. He remained unconscious for several days;
but when last heard from was rapidly recovering
from the effects of this terrible kick.
The Iluftord House.- •Among the many chan
ges and Improvements effected la th# external ap
pearance, and the Internal arrangements of the Huf
ford House, by "Harry"—lts enterprising and untlr"
lng proprietor, none Is more marked than thoes
ma.lo in and about the bar aid office. The first or
corner room. Instead of belnq the drinking room, Is
now used as an office, or room for the reception of
guests, who, If they choose, need not enter the bar or
room where the drinkers moat do congregate. This
arrangement is more la necordano# with that now
adopted in all the modern hotels. Th* mirrors, de
canters, Ac., In the bar are said to be very attrac
tive. We suspect, however, that there are other ob
jects of attraction there, as w* occasionally see mea
go in who hadn't ought to take mack pains, nor
spend mueh Urns in looking at the reflection of their
no so. from a looking-glass; but. It is said, it takes all
kinds of men to make up a world. This is probably
true with regard to noses. The person who is the
most unfortunate lu this thing of a nose, is he who
1 notes nothing.
Addftlou io the Court House—Th# necessity
for a fire-proof or some building suitable for the pub. 1
lie records, title papers, Ac., now deposited at th#
Court House, in this place, has long been felt.
The attention of Grand Jurors ha* been repeatedly
called to their present Insecure condition by the
Court. The Grand Jury at the January Term of
Court, recommended Abe building of proper fire
proofs. We understand that our County Commis
sioners propose to act upon this recommendation;
and instead of erecting a separate building, have de
cided upon putting these lire-proofs in the wings ola
proposed addition to the Court House, by which its
capacity and general convenience will be greatly
increased.
It U estimated that the present rate of taxes if
continued for two years will afford a sum sufficient
lor these contemplated improvements.
The importance to all those owning roal estate, or
obligations secured by Hens on it, ol perfect security
against fire or theft of the evidences of their titles,
cannot well be over estimated. It Is to be hoped that
there will be no delay, but that the work will be com
menced at an early part of the season so as to hate
the danger averted by tha close of tho year.
Fruit and Ornamental Tiers, Vines, Shrub*,
and plants can be procured directly from the nur
•cries by those wishing them, at prices as low or low.
er, than from the traveling agents who occasionally
go about the County taking orders for them. By or
dering direct from a first class established house,
fruit growers will be morally certain of getting trees
and plants of the kind and quality ordered. Many of
these traveling agents buy up large quantities of
trees of inferior siae and quality, on a speculation,
and thon go around among the farmers preteadlag to
be the representatives of some well known nursery,
in order to dispose of them. The result Is that many
people have found, when too late, that they were
cheated.
The late A, K. Peckham, anil other# who hail been
defrauded In this way, had learned Ly experience te
to order direotly from their favorite nurserymen.
By looking over the advertiaementa in the agricul
tural and local papers, you can .readily ascertain the
names of the leading nurserymen Send for a cata
logue and price llat. Select tfce tree* and plants de
sired. Direet when and how they shall be sent, and
lu nine cases out of ten you will be better suited than
if you had bought of aonae amootfie-toogwed agant
who made an exhibit of a specimen book, gotten up
p-rhaps, for some French or German nursery.
In this connection we oail attention to the adver
tisement in our paper, of C. W. Seelye A Co., an old
and established house of Hoc heeler, N. Y. There ia
abundant time left yet for those wishing to get tree#
fur the spring setting, to send for a catalogue, make
out their orders and have tkem filled.— Try it.
A Liberal offer from the Apptetesss-
Free Foundations for Libraries everywhere
-The establishment of libraries by charitable endow
msnt, or the cooperation of intelligent pablio-epiri ted
cniieni is a subject that should receive general at
tention. As a purifier of morals, a means of popu
lar edueatian, a relief of crowded prisons and alma
houses, a direct promoter of the peace, happiness,
sad wealth of communities, the public library ranks
"ith the church and the school. It appears, from
ngns cropping out here and thtra, specially in the
IVeet. as if the times were propitous for th* further
snce of this great work. Such, at least, Is the con
viction entertained by D. Appleton A Co., who have
received, recently, many Inquiries from different
States, asking to be informed aa to the beet method
of founding libraries, and selecting books. In re
sponse to the wide-spread feeling thus shown to exist
upon the subject, and to give It a powerful lmpulae,
luej have determined to offer a direct end substan
tial enci nragement for the formation of publlo li
braries In all parts of the United States, The plan
whii-h they propose is, in scope, liberality, and pre
cise adaptation to the beneficent end sought to bo
accomplished, unparalleled in the history of publlo
enterprises. It is as follows :
Tbe Appletoas offer to give free, what may be cali
"l ike foundation for libraries everywhere. They
*ili present to each club of persons, desirous of forsn
fcsy a public library a complete set, ill IS volumes, of
ffielr standard New American Cyclopssdla. This
rut national work, the only publication of the
tlad, is oue which organlsersof libraries usually buy
first of ail books, because it Is the one most o'ten
ttasuitad by persons of ail classes and vocations, in
v *rch of reliable Information on all kinds of topics,

thousand pages of the most valuable reading-mat-

such general satisfaction, from reports received froii
Mehoopany, where he also Lectured, rather "put hp
foot Into It," at that place. A religious revival was
In progress there, which had ezeited much serious n -
flection. The people without regard to creed, part},
or nativity, were serieusly seeking divine truths
The tone and sentiment In which the Dr's. lecture
was delivered, was such, as to entirely destory tire
Christian-like and conciliatory spirit, which th-'
ministers at that place had labored long and earnest
ly to instill into the hearts of the people—Even th ■
most sealoua friends of temperance declare that th
cause of temperance, morality and religion, In tha;
plaee, hat suffered greatly at the hands of this, it
pretended apostle.—Hie sweeping charges agalns'
the Germans as a race of drunkards,- gave umbrag
to many of the descendants of that sober, tndustrt
I out, and worthy portion of our people. His gross pet
sonal flings, coarse jokes, and 111 concealed politics:
bias contributed much towards breaking down th
good feeling existing, and destroying the work of
reformation which had been commenced under Ut
most auspicious circumstances, and with the most
cheering results.
Since writing the above we have reoelved tho fol
I lowing communication which explains Itself.
MsßonriXT Pa., Feb. 22, 1866.
Editor Wyoming Democrat,
DVAUSI*:—The enclosed
preamble and resolutions were unanimously adoptee
by the Mehoopany Lodge, I. O. of G. T. at their rog
nlar meeting. Friday evening, Feb. 10,1880. and or
dered to be printed lu the Wyoming Democrat, an<
Independent Republican.
Will you please give the tame a place In the col
urns of the Democrats
WHUSAI, The recent Temperance lecture deliv
ered In this plaee, Impressed some persons with th<
belief that our order Is a ''political organisation,'
seeking the advancement or political Interests, am
WHSKSAS. The temperance cause has never beet
more prosperous than when its advocates were labor
lng Independent of all political parties, solely for th
benefit of the unfbVtnnate victims of Inumperanoe
and deeming It our first great duty, as Good Tens
plars. to reclaim the inebriate, and prevent othnrr
from falling under the Influence of the giant mon
iter. Therefore ... , t
Reeotoed. That henceforth we will labor more earn
citly for the objects for which we are banded togeth
er. and seek to disabuse the public mind of the er
roneous Impression that we are a "political organl
aatlon," or in any way controlled by political In
ttuenees, and ~ .
kttoleed, That we will discountenance all and
every attempt, from whatever source, to stir up par
ty or sectional strife among us, and that In future
as in the past, we wUI yield a hearty support to the
officers ofonr Lodge and to all the laws and rules ol
the same. _

TOOTHACHK.— It may not be generally
known to many of our readers that pulver
ize 4 alnm and salt, in equal qualities, placed
on a piece of cotton and put in the tooth it
an infallible remedy for toothache.
SIGNS, —It is a good sign to do an act of
charity ; a bad sign to hear it boasted of.
It's a good sign to see a man wipe the
perspiration from his brow—bad to see hitn
wipe liia lips coming out of a cellar.
GOOD ADVICE.—A neighbor says that we
all abound in good advice —for other peo
ple's practice. For instance, almost every
body commends with enthusiasm watt-r a*
a leverage, and as soon as possible goes to
swallowing coffee, tea, wine or sometl.iug
still a little stronger.
• VKLUCIPXDUKI. —The velocipede niuria
has fairly takeu root in several of th < cities
of the country. It is all the talk, and all
ready have schools been opened wherein to
learn the knack of propelling anil riding
the curious but simple article.
MJG-LH SUGAR. —It will be remembered
that the anuual product of maple sugar in
the United States has been, in year - past,
worth upward of seven millions of oo lars !
How shall it be iu the year ? Now is
the time to get the sap-bushes ready, the
troughs, buckets, kettles, gauges, spites,
vokes, etc. There will lie lively times when
it begins to thaw. Make us a cake.
TANTALIZINO. —A story is current iu our
village of a young man who, while "wind
ing" his way home one day, was taken with
severe retching, and in his agony he rested
against a lrunp-post in order to relieve him
self. A philanthropic gentleman passing
accosted him with, "What's the matter my
dear fellow, are you sick?" "Si-i-hie,
ai-i-i-hic, I should say so; what do you
take, me for ? Do you think I'm puking
for fun ? "
REPUDIATION. —Some of the old fervor of
Mskuwchusetto, agaiubt the stump act seems
to survive in the following decision :
The Supreme Court of Massachusetts, ac
cording to the last volume of its report*,
juet published, has decided that the United
States statute of 1866, wliieh provides that
no paper required by law to be stamped.
ah all be used as evidence in any court, un
til the requisite stamp shall have been affix
ed, does not apply to the courts of the sev
eral States.
INTHRESTING TO LADIES. —The milliners
are wondering just now what will be the
fashions for spring. If little hats continue
in vogue, their profits will be beautifully
small. The sisterhood, two years past,
have had so hard a time of it, that a great
many have taken to dress-making, or to the
sale of fancy merchandise. Any of
ordinary ingenuity, from the "pieces, left
after making a silk or a tulle dress, ha*
been able to make with her own hands a
bonnet that, with the aid of a few shillings
worth of trimmings, has enabled her to
make as good an appearance as to her ca
put as the lady disbursing 825 for a corre
sponding article.
FRIENDS THAT CAN BE DEPENDED UPON.—
"Prosperity makes friends and adversity
triea them." The prosperous man need*
not friends and yet he has plenty of them ;
while the poor devil, without a cent in hip
pocket, rarelv receives a helping hand when
down. Baxe was "level" when he sang,
"There is no friend so true as a dollar or
two." and everyday proves the correctness
of the remark. The dollar is man s stead
fast friend, and we should all take heed that
it does not slip too readily through the fin
gers. Live, then, so that when the evil
days come yon may feel that you have a
friend in need iu "a dollar or two. xou
will feel a spirit of independence. Now-a
days, one must "pony up" or "]>eg out.
Wow* *ON TOE BOTS TO RBJUUIBEK At
a Christmas dinner, given by George W.
Cliilds to the one hnndre<l and thirty
news-boys of Philadelpliia, the following
maxims were printed on the bills of fare.
They should be committed to memory by
every boy in the land :
"Liberty is the right to do whatever yon
wish, without interfering with the rights of
' *Bave vour money, and you will find it
one of the most useful friends.
Never give trouble to your father or
n, rake care of your pennies and they will
grow to be dollars.
Intemperance is the cause of nearly all
the trouble in this world ; beware of Btrong
drink. . . . . .
The poorest boy, if he bo industrious,
honest, and saving, may reach the mghteet
honors in tL# land.
Never lie crnel to a dnmb animal ; re
member Uiat it lias no power to tell bow

LAZY PEOPLE.— -There is an oltl proverb
that "the lame aul the lazy are always pro
vided for." There is more truth than
fwetry in this, especially with regard to the
atter class. All of us must have seen in
stances of this kind, which have come
across us with a most disheartening effect,
just at some period, perltajis, when we wort)
conscious of having made industrious and
persistent effort for daily bread and butter
without hope of success. And yet, after all
the least spark of true mannood.or self-re
-peet would bo kindled into a brighter flame
at the very thought of changing places with
a person so wholly devoid of these qualities
as to live at ease under such obligations.—
A more pitiable creature could hardly be
imagined, though all may seem to go well
with him for the time. A day will come to
sueli, when the retrospect will lie asln s and
wormwood ; it will come, too, when their
steps are past retracing, and nothing is left
but a dishonored old age.
