"Words of Advice.
The New York Tribune, in concluding an
article on the Pennsylvania election, tenders
the following sound advice :
"Until their unexpected success in Cali
fornia, the Democrats had no hope of carry
Pennsylvania ; but since that event
jbey have mustered courage and are grow
ing quite confident. It is certain that they
will roll a heavy vote, and wc warn our
friends to prepare lor a hard fight. They
tu win by twenty thousand majority if they
do their duty ; but to do this in fact to win
all the vote must be got out. So far
as the canvass has been tame. Let our
friends take pattern by Ohio, and wake up
the sluggards. The gain of Pennsylvania
would give the Democracy substantial cause
'f,r hope in the next Presidential contest ;
'J should it be carried with a half disguis
ed repudiator at the head of tho successful
ticket, the damage to the public credit
ould be deplorable. There are uot quite
two weeks of working time left, but a great
deal maybe done in that period. While
we have no fears of the result, we repeat
the suggestion that it will require hard
work and constant vigilence to secure the
victory which is clearly our due."

DIED:
At the residence of James B. Graham,
Esq., on Saturday evening, Sept. 21st, 1867,
William Alexander, Esq., aged about
SS years. The deceased was one of the
oldest and most respected citizens of Clear
field borough. Ills death is deeply mourn
ed by his numerous relatives, and many
warm personal friends. His remains were
interred in the cemetery, on the hill, on
Monday last, whither they were followed
by a large concourse of people. Peace to
his remains.
Died in Curwensville, on Sunday morn
ing, September 15th, after a short but se
vere illness, Mrs. Isabella Ten Eyck,
wife of L. W. Ten Eyck, in the 31st year
of her age. The funeral took place
from the residence of her husband, r.t 10
o'clock on Tuesday morning, and was at
tended by a very large concourse of friends
and relations. The ladies forming the "So
cial circle," of which she was an honored
member, and the Good Templars turned out
in a body to pay the last tribute of respect
to the remains of one respected and loved
when living. The deceased leaves a hus
band and five children to mourn her loss.
Those who were present and witnessed the
heartfelt anguish of the bereaved ones,
when her body was deposited in the last
resting place for the dead, can well appre
ciate their worth to them when living. Her
funeral was one long to be reniembeied, and
it is to be hoped that many a heart read a
lesson from the solemn and imposing cere
mony. The deceased was more than an or
dinary woman. In all the relations of life
she bore her part with a firmness and energy
of character worthy of the cause. As a
wife, she was truly a "helpmate;" kind
and affectionate, she was the idol of her
husband's heart, and the admiration of all
who kuew her. As a mother, she was gentle
and forbearing, and never tired in the dis
charge of her duty toward her little ones.
Benevolent and charitable, her hand was
always engaged in doing good ! Hers was a
heart that responded to every appeal, and
often times even beyond her means. With
an abhorrence of vice, in every form, her
! voice was always heard counciling for good.
No one knew her but to respect her ; no one
will remember her but in kindness. To her
family her loss will be irreparable. It is a
consolation, however, to know that their loss
is her train. The writer of this feeble trib
ute to her memory had the privilege of
knowing something of the state of her mind
for some time previous to her death, and
has the consolation of knowing that her love
for her Redeemer was the uppermost
thought. She died "not as one without
hope." She was not unprepared for the
summons. That she died happy, and has
gone to meet her reward in heaven, is the
hope of the mourning relatives and friends
she has left behind.
Rev. A. II. Sembower preached a very
affecting and impressive sermon on the oc
casion. Rev. A. W. Guyer, and Rev. J.
E. Kerns were also present and took part iu
