GOSSIP WITH OCR FRIENDS.—Last week a
promise was recorded by your Gossip that he
would relate how " he succeeded in piling brick,
and what he made by it." That promise shall
now be redeemed. Some people may think piling
brick a low sort of business for an editor, but that
. -
depends entirely how it is done, and the animus
(as .the lawyers have it) with which the work is
performed. There are three ways of accomplish
ing the operation. The first is to pile them so
that they tumble down : the second so that they
will stand, and the third way is to pile them well
and philosophically. A philosopher (your Gossip
is one) always wants to know all about his work.
For instance, I now know that bricks are quite
- an ancient,• institution ; for did not the Babel
.Onians, with the memory of-the flood fresh in
their minds, say one to another, " Let us make
BRICI, and laird they+ thoroughly," (we don't al
ways do that now); and does not Moses add. "And
they had BRICK • for stone, and (s)bute had they for
mortar ?" The civilized nations of the East used
bricks at a very early date. The Israelites had
a time harder than the, bricks they made for their
Egyptian ;101t...masters, as they were baked—not
the Israelites, but the bricks. The Greeks per
fected the art; and the Romans sere regular
bricks at bricklaying, and put their mark on every
brick. There are houses standing in England this
day, made of the brick imported into that country
by the Romans. Until the commencement of the
present century bricks were made entirely by hand,
while novfmaehinery has been i n troduced to great
advantage in their manufacture. Other things
being equal, much depend upon the quality of
the clay. Sand and clay make a stronger brick
than pure clay. The Pug-Mill—but I have said
enough on the subject to illustrate v, hat I mean
by the philosophical part of piling.hriek. I tried
to pile philosophically all the time, but au inse
cure pile (the first way) Auld disturb my equa
nimity, arid once pinched toy fingers badly. When
the work became too monotonous I relieved my
self thus : one, fun ; two, few ; three, free ; four,
sore; fire, thrive; six. , fix ; sercn, Heaven ; eight,
fate; nine, fine; ten, then. Attem hich I alter
nated in this original manner :
"One, tro—buckle my shoe;
Three, four—open the door;
- Fire, six—pick up sticks;
Seven, eight—you've come too late:
Nine, ten—e good fat hen."
Then I changed my metre in this wise
' One, tro, three—the blacks are free !
(As all men can see.)
Four„ fire, ,ix-goal for nix! .
(The-se three bricks)
Seven. eight. nine—put them in line!
(I fear they incline.)
It is positively surprising holy these expedients
” administer to a mind distressed" with the MD
neie of piling brick. , The changes from piling oil
edge or side; laying them this way and then that
way; binding them at the ends; commencing a t
new pile in a new place, idc., expedite-and ielieve
the labor. Piling on the slope of a hill, too, is ar
tistic. 'One pile reminded me of the leaning tow
er of Pisa; - another of Fort Sumter, A. D., 1.'465;
and still another of "my own, my native land"—
Chamberiburg ! You can form no conception of
the excitement caused by the striking of the huh
of a cart wheel against a newly completed brick
pile. The arrival of a cart is a sort of an oasis
in the piler's mind. A balky horse, a broken sin
gle tree, a premature delivery, or an out and out
stall are agreeable episodes; and the occasional
clashing of judgment bet Ween the horse, the dri
ver and the brick-piler, adds to the life of the
work. And then the appetite consequent upon'
the exercise pays one auiply; so does the dirt, for
once. eally dirty you can lie down anywhere. re
gardless of broadcloth or cassimere. It is true
that perspiration and Wick dust mixed well to
gether Preclude rather au Aboriginal effect upon
the complexion, and is hard upon a white shirt,
but then remember the appetite; and who ever
beard of a brick piler blacking his boots? Here
allow me to remark that I have replaced iny sheep
skin gloves by a pair of buck skins, which answer
admirably.
ANSWER TO CORRESPONDENTS
Mrs. Grundy is a character frequently referred
to in Morton's comedyof "Speed the Plow: - though
the old lady does not appear on the stage, thus
giving hera Delphic odor ‘s hich has never worn
away Dame Ashfield is constantly repeating.
"What will Mrs. Grundy say ?" much to the dis
comfort of her husband, an honest farmer. The
play being popular, and the idea pertinent, Mrs.
Grundy has grown to be a celebrity. She repre
sents the French "on dit," and the English "they
say." Long lice Mrs. G., even if she does at times

tions. Even the best of men wish to be on good
terms with her_
I have been deeply exercised in my mind lately
with regard to what was fo take the place of Dr.
Franklin upon the Court House cupola ; and fear
ed greatly that the old Doctor would have to give
e mtrto,zome new fangled notion, but I rejoice to
say dig Mr.eSeibert has exhibited his usual good
taste by concluding to restore the County's God-
Father, lightning rod and all. Hurrah for Fiank
v lie (county)! I also wade myself a special corm
Mittee to examine the Court House, and was
Much gratified to see the improvements fliat hair
been made in the interior arrangements. The
beating accommodations are excellent, as well as
the disposal:of the offices and jury rooms. The
Court Hall will be elegant, and far more commo
dious than before. Mr. Seibert and the Commis
sioners will have the thanks of the present and
future generations of Franklin county people.
DEMOCILTIC Cosvricrtos.—The unferrified
Democracy of Franklin county met in Convention
in this place on Tuesday of last week. We say
the unterrified, for if the Democracy can appeal
to the people this fall after the events of the pres
ent year contradicting ever) thing they professed
and predicted to the people last year, they must
be courageous, indeed. But hopeless, desperate
and embarrassing as their cause must be before
the people they attempted to deceive into a bic
traytd. of their country but one year ago, they
have gone through the motions and now present
a ticket for the support of the same voters.
Until within ten days bethre the Cons (mina,
the contest was.confined exclusively to the candi
dates for Sheriff. The nomination of M'Lellan
for the legislature, ail also that of Doyle Mr
Treasurer and Duncan for Senator were conce
ded; but at the eleventh hour .J.M'Dowell Sharp
was trotted out, rather by his friends than by his
own efforts„and the struggle for Senator became'
one of eXceMing bitterness. It was not doubted
'that the popular wishes of the party were for Mr.
Shsrpe,•confessedly its most accomplished leader ;
but Duncan had been alone in the field so long,
and Sharpe refusedto make a-personal effort to
secure it, and the result was that muscle won over
brains— There was a widespread desire on the
part_of the better, class of Democrats to have an
abler and more experienced man on the ticket for
;Senator, in view of the vast interests the border
has in future legislation ; and when Duncan final
ly prevailed there was profound regret felt on
every hand save among the more reckless party
leaders.
The Convention met in the School Ffouaent
(edit* and organized by the election of Mr. D.
K. Wunderlich as President; Dr. Isaac Clusetqn
and Hiram Sowers Vied President's, and B. A.
.Cormany and.W. H. Blair as Secretaries. The
Convention tben adjourned until 1 o'clock, P. M.,

THE sTELTIFILD SOLDIER
Pile Philadelplia Prrss,ttfPr a scathing review
of,th . e D.mmeratm platfoin: of this State, thus
refers to Col. Davis, the soldier who has aceep
tedsSnomination for Auditor- General On a plat
form that is a blistering libel upon his heroism in
the field: -
And it is a soldier that crowns this revolting
pyramid ! The candidate for Auditor General is
Odom.) W. W. H. Davis. of Bucks county. We
take it for granted that he will accept the nomi
nation. indeed it would be safe to say that he
sought that doubtful honor. Colonel Davis though,
a good soldier, was one of the very few men who
fought against the rebellion in the held and allow
ed his name to remain at the head of a newspa
per in Bucks l eeway, in which the war and the
Adminittratitm under which it was conducted
were steadily opposed and misrepresented. Had
the counsels of his newspaper. the Doylestown
Democrat, been followed, Colonel Dusts would
now be one of the spectators of (if not one of the
mourners over) a divided amlsub-divided Repub
lic: each fragment at war with the other, and all
ready for a foreign master in preference to a re
union innoni thetuselves. Vain ill that ease; bad
been his Sword agii3nst the theories of the P.m
that wrote in his newspaper. , Once it was gicen
out that the soldier was not the editor—that the
words of the Doylestown Democrat Were not the
words of Canine' Davis, and that lie would take
an early chance to say so. 'Time passed. Ilis
regiment, the 104th, has closed its service, been
muttered out, and the officers and men have for
months been at their homes. But the Doylestown
Democrat has eontained'no card from the milita
ry editor, rebuking his substitute - for the senti
ments that made it so vile an echo of the Woods
and the W. B. Reeds during his absence. We
have, instead, his nomination as candidatejor an
important State office on the most odious plat
form ever adopted by ally party since the rebel
lion commenced. We question whether the avow
als which hurried the Democratic party under an
avalanche in Ohio in 1863, which lost Jesse D.
Bright his seat in the Senate in Hiil, or which
now constitutes the basis of the Copperhead op
position in Kentucky, was or ismore repulsive.
It is certain that in none of the lately rebellious
States havehany of the late enemies of the Repub.
lie enunciated - opinions at- once so , revolutionary
'and dangerous. - :We are coratrained to believe,
..therefore that Colonel Davis approved the disrep
utable course of his paper during his absence in
the field; and that he accepts the new and demo
ralizing position assumed for the Democratic par
ty by the Convention of which he is a candidate.
Now, while he deserves his share of credit fin'
fighting for - his country, that credit bed:tomes a
doubtful commodity is hen it is trumpeted to gi i ve
solvency and repute to a bankrupt and dishonored
cause. No bravery call make such a cause accep
table to the American people. What bittererin
suit to a soldier an be conceived than to charge
him with fighting not for principle but for pay 7
How instinctively this question is understood by
• the bravest men of our conquering armies, is
p-oved in the overwhelming fact that all of them,
without distinction of I . ..ruler party attachments,
voted for or recommeded the re-election
Abrahi Lincoln. and hence the election of
An. v Johnson. Grant, Sherman, Sheridan,
Ha tick, Meade. Hooker, Butler, Geary, all
them, stood on this high level, because they
regarded it as a religious duty—in fact, as
part of the obligation they assumed when they
embarked in the war against the rebellion.—
Such a Convention al that which mel at Harris
burg on Thursday last, would have been`qiiaran
tined by them tinder the army regulatiuns to pre
vent a contagion from vreading, and such a
platform as that which Colonel Davis stands upon,
!could have been regarded at a very long range
with their best field-glasses, and futaity prortoutuf
ed a rebel marked battery filled with the deadli
est missiles.. And so Col. Davis and the Democ
racy of Pennsylvania %%ill find it to he in October
next.

DARING BANK BOBBERY.—From the Somer
set Democrat of the 243 d ult., we clip the following
account of a recent light-of-hand per - Mt-mance
among the "frosty sons of thunder:" On last
Sunday night the bank of M. Tredivell & Co., of
this place, was robbed of its entire contents:
About twelve thousand dollars in "..i-`2,0 and. 7-30
Government bonds, and eight thousand dollars of
Government funds, revenue stumps, &c., were
taken. The burglars, it seems, picked the lock
and entered the front door. From the instill:
tm•nts used and the planner in which they opened
the safe, it is evident that they are professional
burglars. They must have known the number
and kind of safe, for they drilled a hole to the
bolt on the inside of the door with measured ac
curacy. There was a steel box about 10 inches
by 6 within the safe, containing the valuables,
which they carried off. They left the following
articles in the bank, on their exit: I common
wrench, rsteel crowbar, three feet in length, 1
patent wrench, 1U drilling bits, I tenant saw. 2
gimlets, I file; 1-box of tools, l can and one bottle
of sperm oil and 1 gum piano cover.
A reward of $lOOO is offered fim the apprehen
sion of the burglars and the recovery of the mai
ney, or $5OO for either.
THE ship Brother Jonathan, plying between
San Francisco and Portland, Oregon, was wrecked
near Camp Lincoln in the latter State, on the
:10th of July, and allon board except fifteen were
drowned. The passengers and crew numbered
between two and three hundred. Among the lost
was Brig. General George Wright. Brigadier
General Wright is not the old commander of the
fith Army Corps.':-,He was the colonel of the 9th
Regiment United States Infantry, but was at the
time of the disaster brigadier general of volun
teers, and was ou his way to take command of
the district of Oregon. He was a soldier noted , .
no less for his bravery and judgment than for his
goodness of heart and many social qualities.—
Lieutenant E. Waite, of the same regiment, vi as
also lost. He, too, proved himself a good and
faithful officer. Both will he regretted by frien&
all over the country.
