(LT V. B. PALMER, Esq. is the Agent for
this paper at his office of real estate and Country
Newspaper agency in Philadelphia, North-West
corner of Third and Chestnut streets: Tribune
buildings, Nassau st., N. Y.; South East corner
of Baltimore and Calvert sts., Baltimore, and No.

the Jeffersonian Republican.
Messrs. MASON .$ TUTTLE, at 38 William

to receive and forward subscriptions and adver
tisements for the Republican.
Hurra the Stage.
It gives us no ordinary pleasure to announce
the fact, that a line of four horse coaches has
commenced running between Siroudsbnrg and
New York city, through in one day, by the way
of the Delaware Water Gap, Columbia, Blairs
town, Johnsonsburg, Stanhope, Morrisiown,&c.
This will furnish accommodation to those of our
citizens, as well as to those on the route, who
may wish to travel to New York city, or to any
o the intermediate points of passage. The
citizens of Stroudsburg, and others in the vicin
ity, should feel, as we trust they do, a most
lively interest in this enterprise, and that for
many important and obvious reasons. To name
i heard ofii Every county should be explored
and every destitute family -should be supplied.
This should be done for the most cogent reasons.
The Bible should have a place in every house
hold, if only as a book of history. Where else
should we go for the records of the origin of
our world, and the history of our race, for cen
tury upon century after the creation. It was a
matter of common observation that the reading
of ihe Bible was favorable, in a far larger de
gree than the reading of any oilier book, to gen
eral improvement. Look over the whole world,
and the two communities that stood highest in
the scale of intelligence, were Scotland and
Now England. Those people were Bible
readers, and as a consequence, they were a
shrewd, order loving, law abiding people. There
were strong political reasons why the Bible
should be spread abroad. A free Bible and a
free people go together. Slv him a commu
nity that had a just appreciation of that inspired
book, and that was a community that would be
proof against ihe arts of the wily demagogue.
Where ihe Bible is known and read, there
woman finds her true sphere, where the Bi
ble is not, there woman is degraded and be
comes the slave of tyrant man. This furnished
a strong inducement for the Christian female to
stand forth in this cause. But woman, ever
foremost in works of charity, needed, less than
our sterner sex, the stimulus of appeal to her
sensibilities, as an incentive to action.
But he would not consume our time by ex
tended remarks. Last, and above all, the Bible
should be in every one's hand, because it speaks
of God, the soul, eternity, salvation, vast and
pregnant themes, throwing into infinite distance
every theme that is merely temporal and world-
a few. Beside the consideration of personal', ,,- 0 - . u 1 1 r .u -.u .u

Albany, Nov. 48 P. M.
The excitement and enthusiasm here on the
part of the Whigs, is intense. The whole city
is one dense mass of smoke and glare of flame
with the bonfires, while every street is light as

try. Every facility of access to a place, other
conditions being favorable, tends directly to
bring that place under the public eye. Strouds
burg has always suffered from its comparative
ly inaccessible and out-of-the-way position.
That inconvenience, by ihe enterprise of Mr.
"Ward, will be essentially lessened.
As a natural consequence of increased p.oto
riety, may we not count upon an increase, not
only of occasional but of permanent residents.
Stroudsburg is much and deservedly admired
for its pure water; its bracing and healthful air;

said by ihe eloquent speaker. Owing to the

was decidedly happy.

prayer was offered by the Rev. Mr. Gray, after
which, upon invitation, the Hon. J. M. Porter
addressed the meeting briefly, but forcibly and
sensibly. He said in substance that he was
ever willing to bear his testimony in favor of
the Bible cause; but, called upon as he had
been unexpectedly, he trusted he would be ex
cused if his remarks were very general and
somewhat desultory. He would aim, however,
to be practical. The Bible cause was one
which should meet a response in every bosom
that was warm with the love of country, or the
lnvft nf man. It furnished a hrnad n I at form, so
broad that the whole proteslanl world could
meet there. He rejoiced that it was so. It

He trusted they were all acquainted with its
origin. It grew out of the felt necessity that
all should possess that book 'which furnishes
the sole guide lo a better world. It was a com
mon and just sentiment that charity should be-
ential member of the last Legislature,
