C|t Democrat. HARVEY SICKLER, Editor. TUN KHAN NOCK , PA Wednesday, Nov. 4, ISG3.J 8. M. Pettenglil Si Co.—No. 37 PARK ROW NEW YORK, & 6 STATE ST. BOSTOX, are our Agents far the N. B. Democrat, in those cities, and are author ized to take Advertisements and Subscriptions ns at our lowest Rates. MATHER & CO., No. 335 Broadway, N. Y., are our Authorized Agents to take Advertisements for this paper, at out published rates. A Little plain talk. "We are about to perform one of the most unpleasant things connected with the publi cation of a oonntry newspaper—a thing, that we would gladly refrain from doing, did not nature's first law—the law of self preserva tion, goad us to its fierformance. Do not start, kind reader ; we are not yet going to commit homicide, nor suicide- We are going to do our best to keep this paper going and live,.- without the commissiou of any such grave crimes. Wo desire earnestly, to obvi. ate the necessity of stealing for a living ; by reminding some hundreds of our subscribers that they owe us for the Democrat ; and that we cannot live on faith alone; nor put off our creditors much longer on mere promises to pay. We are obliged therefore to say to those who are indebted to us on subscription or for job work, that xre must have our pay. The coat, to us, of every thing that goes to make up our paper is nearly fifty per cent greater than heretofore. Most of the neces sary articles of food and clothing are doubled in cost. The farmer finds a ready market and remunerative prices for the products of his labor. The Mechanic demands more for his labor. But then such trash as they have for money now-a-daya!— green as it is, we must have some of it. All these are the natural and necessary results of the monster green back paper bubble, which like a vast balloon hangs over and overshadows all things. All things, did we say I We will ex cept the editor of a Democratic country newspaper, who furnishes it at 51.50 the old pnoe. He, isn't shaded by green backs nor any thing else. The storms of executive per secution beat pitilessly upon him. The an gry waves of abolition fanaticism and rnob ocracy dash against him. The well filled vials of clerical wrath are poured upon his devoted head, but he heeds them not—he goes straight forward, trusting to the generosity of his pa trons, the honesty of his cause and in the justice of Him who doeth all things well. When we commenced writing, we intended in a few plain words to say to our delinquent subscribers, that they must pay up, but we fear that we have grown a little ambiguous, and will close by assuring those who fail to take the hint, that we shall hereafter attempt to make the matter plain, to the most obtuse understanding. War News.- The army of the Potomac has been so ex clusively used for political warfare of late, that it's " on to Richmond" progress has been I very slow. The Democratic portion of it is now, either in or within 6afe distance of the treDcbes at Washington; large details of the abolition portion, having been made to carry the election in New York. The fall rains and mud will probably set in before they will join the army again. Thus closeth the third year of this cruel war—a war, never honestly prosecuted, by those in power, for the union, but, one which has now been di verted from a war for the nigger, to a war against the Democratic party and for the spoils of office. How long ? God of our Fath ers, how long, will the nation have to drink of this cup of bitterness 7 A GROSS OUTRAGE — About twelve o'clock on Tuesday night an Abolition mob appeared in front of the Democratic head quarters, and assaulted with stones-, bricks — Indiana Democratic- In the absence of the green back ipfluence and military discipline—used in carrying the Ohio and Pennsylvania elections, —the Indi ana State elections hare gone Democratic. Just aa Pennsylvania and Ohio would have lone without the interference of imported eoter*. The State Election.* The election for Governor of this State, has resulted in the triumph of the abolition candidate, Andrew G, Curtin, by about fifleen thousand majority. It is useless to specu late upon the causes which have led to the defeat of the Democratic candidate- It is on ly necessary to examine the number of votes cast in this State on Tuesday, October 13tb, 1863, to ascertain the cause. That George IV. Woodward had a large majority of the legal votes cast in this State for Governor, ,no honest man can for a moment doubt But the question will bo asked why he was not elected 1 The reason why he was not elected was because the Abolition Adminis tration at Washington and its minions in this State adopted an extensive system of colonization, by which thpy were enabled to throw into Pennsylvania some forty or fifty thousand men, who voted on the second Tuesday of October, without having the le gal qualification of voters. That was the way in which the honest Democracy of Pennsylvania was defeated. When election | officers and window committees resisted the votes of non residents, their qualms of con science were speedily silenced by an applica tion of greenbacks, aud if that failed the pre tended voter was marched off to some other election district where the consciences of the election officers were fully abolilionized. The vote cast, it is said, will reach five hundred and twenty thousand. It is the heaviest ever cast in the Slate. In 1860 it was four hundred and ninety-two thousand, twenty-eight thousand less than that cast at the last election, and yet it is positively as serted that Pennsylvania has sent over two hudred thousand soldiers to the war, the most of whom are still in the service Whence came this great increase of votes when the State was so heavily depleted of its pipulation to furnish soldiers for the [ war ? There can he but one answer to the question. They must have come from oth er States. It is not possible that so large a number of legal voters should for a period of years, have failed to exercise the elective franchise. Such a proposition is absurd.— The abolition party in 1862 polled their full party vote. Their defeat last year left thqp little to hope for from the honest yeomanry of Pennsylvania, and they kuew that unless they resorted to fraud and colonization they had no earthly chance of carrying the State election. The declaration that the adminis tration at "Washington could not afford to lose Pennsylvania, is enough to satisfy any one acquainted with the principal characters of that, administration, that they would not scruple about the means to be employed for that purpose. Millions of dollars were expended for that purpose alone. The Democratic party in Pennsylvania never polled as farge a vote as that cast for George W. "Woodward at the late guberna torial election, the large accessions to out ranks of men who have heretofore voted and acted with the Republican party, were not sufficient to overcome the large importation of voters from other States, who were Beut here to stifle the voice of the honest freemen of Pennsylvania. Rut the same despotism and tyranny which drove the honest, think ing and reading portion of the Republican party into the Democratic ranks, still exist, and, by this time next year, will have swell ed the Democratic column to t-uch gigantic proportions that colonization and fraud will neither be tolerated nor attempted. That we will elect our President next year, we have no more doubt of than wo have of our own existence. " Truth crushed to caith will rise again, The eternal years of Ood arc here ; But Error, woi nded, writhes in pain, And dies amidst its worshippers."— Fottsrille Standard. Daniel S, Dickenson. Daniel S Dickenson, whose loyalty the Gazette has prated so much about, said at a meeting in New York on the 15th of Decem ber, 1860. " It is not an amendment of the constitu tion that is wanted merely—the laws are well enough—but it is their execution accord ing to the spirit in which they were enacted, that is called f>r and demanded on the part of the Sontb. They insist upon the great principle of the equality of the States, they are entitled to it upon every consideration that can influence men, communities and States. The constitution makes them equal —they are equal in the sight of honest men, and are equal in the sight of God, and woe to hiin who undertakes to degrade and tram ple them down." Hear him again: '' I know there are those among us who say that the South do not intend to secede ; the}- say that this is an unnecessary alarm : they 6ay they can be coerced and driven back in thetr position. All thai is necessary b firmness. But the South have seen for yeais these little rivulets of opposition forming up on the hills and forcing down through the gorges, until they form the black and bitter waters of one great sea of abolition, which threatens to overwhelm and engulf them. " Let those who believe that this evil can be averted, and that the Union can be preferred byjorce, attempt that method : but let good men, every true patriot, set to work to cor rect the public sentiment. The South has been goaded and irritated until it has arrived, in a good degree, at a point of despertion The South eares little about the mere election of Mr. Lincoln—-they viewed it as the devel opment of a public sentiment, as a last and final evidence of the sentiment of the free States." Great Daniel, how many greenbacks did it take to charge you from a secessionist, to a " loyal leech." JC3E" "My party, sir, will not lie in idle ness," said an abolitionist. " Very true sir, " retorted his opponent, " your party is neither chargeable with lying in idleness nor idleness in lying." COMMUNICATIONS. For The Democrat. NICHOLSON, October 29,1863. MR. EDITOR :—The " brown October" is on the wane—its remaining days are numbered and few—its golden-hued forests are either denuded, or the withered leaves rustle mourn j fully as they brush against the swaying : branches ; and the tread of the squirrel and pheasant is no longer concealed from the sportsman's ear by the moss-clad rocks and springing grass. The nuts are all gathered and stored away in the garret, to add cheer to the coming lonely winter nights. Pippins and Russets and Greenings, and all the finer varieties of winter fruit, are being housed or sent to market—cider barrels are in great de mand, and buckwheat cakes smoke upon the breakfast table, coaxing the appetite and giv ing grace to many an otherwise over frugal meal. You, undoubtedly,have made the discovery, in the long ago time which dates back eveu { beyond our school-boy days, that buckwheat I cakes are one of the "institutions of this | once great and " ga-lorious" country, and en j ter largely into the household economy of ev | erv family in the land, at about this season of ; the year, For my own taste in 6uch matters, i I dd not feel as though I am in any degree i accountable to others, and yet I am quite | willing to acknowledge an undue fondness ; for these seasonable luxuries. Their a4vont, |in my opinion, should be welcomed with feasts and rejoicings, similar to those with | which the vintage is welcomed on the vine | clad Rhine, or the feast of Roses in the sunny ■ vales of Cashmere. 1 make no pretention to 1 knowedge of your feelings upon the subject, j but I'll warrant most of your readers enjoy I these clear, bracing October days none the j less from the fact that buckwheat cakes, | swimming in butter, and garnished with gold :en syrup have been added to the morning ! meal. Dealers in cattle, produce, game, peltry, &c.. have bien quite busy scouring the country and shipping vast quarntities, during the past few weeks. Competition, of course, brings up prices to the highest figures, and producers cannot complain at a lack of demand, or that their produce does not gel them all that it is worth. Apples find ready sale at 50 cts. per bushel ; butter 25 to 27 cts. per lb.; buck wheat, 75 cts. per bushel; buckwheat flour, §3,00 per hundred; wheat Hour, SB,OO to $0,50 per barrel ; potatoes 50 to G2J cts, per bushel ; but greenbacks and shinplasters are plenty and holders seem anxious to part with them—labor is in good demand, and nobody g; utnbles at 'hard-times, 'notwithstanding high prices, unheard of taxation and an unnatural civil war are added to the usual depressions which mark the approach of winter, to those who cam their bread by the hardest. With the exception of Scranton, Nicholson Depot is said to be the most important on this line of Railroad, there being much more shipping done to and from this pcint than from any other Depot on the road. Mr. A. D. King the Agent—>3 quite popular with everybody, and presides over the interests of shippers and the Company with the highest satisfaction to all parties concerned, lie is at present absent from his post, rusticating, I believe, somewhere in the " right smar. ' little village of Newark, N. J. Different people usally seek different modes ot rccrea lion. Some fly, during the hot Summer months, to Newport, Saratoga, or some other fashionable watering place, where the codfiish aristocracy most do congregate, whilst others leave comfortable homes to breathe clouds of dust, and, out of courtesy, call it country air ; but our friend King takes to himself no 6uch opportunities, when half the world is agog pleasure seeking, he sticks to his desk and works with a will until the season arrives when he is likely to find his friends at home, then, like a sensible man, as he is, shoulders his baggage and trudges off, sure of a home welcome wherever he goes It has been sug gested that the object of his visit to the city once celebrated for the manufacture of lea'her, (if we are to believe the ancient Oiney,) is that he may ge>t from his friend John the style of vehicle designed to cut the dashiest swell over the frozen, snow-clad roais, this winter ; and, by an occasional trip to Goth am, learn from his friend Charley, of Express notoriety, the price of game and other small produce, but I am not a believer in any such hypothesis. Your readers will recollect the total de struction of Mr. S, Taylor's mill, together with a large quantity of grain, last spring.— Well, phoenix like, the mill has arisen from its ashes, and is %iw almost ready for opera tion. It will be, when completed, the largest and most complete establishment of the kind in this section of the country. Under the accumulation of misfortunes which befell Mr. T., he has displayed the most indomitable perseverence and the highest business quali fications ; and his many friends and the pub lie, who have suffered much inconveuience from the lack of the usual accommodation his establishment afforded, will rejoice to learn that he will soon re-commence operations Mr. Taylor is one of the most worthy and en terprising citizens of this place, and is deserv ing of the warmest sympathy and earnest support of the community. Your quondam cotemporary, Tiffany, is flourishing here, in the Grocery and Provi sion line. He has recently added to his stock quite an extensive assortment of boots and 6hoes, and seems to be doing quite \ flourish ing business. He has broke ground for a new building, which will probacy be com pleted in the spring. So, you 6ee, his present business is seemingly better suited to his prospects and prosperity than delving among the dusty representatives of thought. O. L. Hallstead & Son have recently added Fall and Winter goods to their former ex tensive stock. Now, I profess to be some thing of a judge of dry goods, whether made up, or upon the shelf, and I can truly say that I have seldom seen a better display of dress goods. The prints are said to be cheap, by those who are better posted in prices than myself, and they are certainly beautiful.-*- Should any ofyonr lady readers hapjten this way I would advise them to call" and exam ine. I see that the firm advertises quite lib erally, and I am sure you will agree with me that no better evidence can' be adduced of its popularity and prosperity. After all the good that I have felt con- ! strained to write about Nicholson, I am sorry that truth compehs me to say that the cau3e of education has not, latterly, received that attention which its importance to the rising 1 generation demands. There are sotbe eighty scholars in this School District, and only ac- j coinmodations for, perhaps, half that number. 1 A village containing the population, present and prospective, of this, surely should permit I no lack of means for education. It ought, at ! least, to afiord room for a graded school, and the means to keep it in operation not less { than six months out of the twelve ; and I am glad to be able to add that the mattqr is be ing agitated and discussed by those who feel something like an absorbing interest in it and hope that their efforts may culminate in the fullest success. Amongst those who have ; taken special interest and have labored earn estly to bring about the desired result. Dr. ! Blakeslee. well known to the citizens of your county, Mr. Wilcox, who, by the way, keeps a very nicely stocked Grocery Store opposite Perrigo's Hotel, Mr. S. Taylor, mentioned iqj another part of this letter, and Mr. L. liar ding, deserve more than passing praise ; but the limits of this letter will scarcely permit all to be said which should be. I must not, however, neglect to mention the new building which L. Harding, formerly of the firm of L. Harding & Co., is now erect ing adjoining the Depot, for the purpose of storing grain, produce, &c., to the purchase of which, I am informed, he herealter intends to devote his attention. The building is un der roof, and, when fimished, will be conven- nt and well adapted to tbe purposes tor which it is intended. It will, no doubt, be a great public convenierffce. Truly Yours, Ac. CUNT. We give the following letter a place in our columns, though we think it will only be of local interest, MR. EDITOR : I observed in the Wyoming Republican of Sept. 30th., aD article headed " Notes on a Small Potato/' and signed Wes ley and Judson. Rut on reading the article, I found that by some unaocountable accident, they had lost 6ight of the subject entirely. However, it was pretty well done for Wesley and Judson. I had no idea they were so smart. I think If'csley must have had a Re vere attack of the " Nigger on the brain,'' about that time, as he had just returned from a tour with his wench, said tour hav ing been taken for the purpose of obtaining her freedom. As for Judson I think he must have been overshadowed by the dark cloud, which occasionally rests upon certain mem bers of his family, and directs them to write. Or, possibly lie had just received another letter from his brother •'in the army" and consequently felt very patriotic. The silver Circle spoken of, I know noth ing about ; nor how many children were frightened out of their wits. (Which Judson seems to think they never had, judging other children by his own, I suppose.) But 1 can safely say it is enough to frighten axxy child to see this " mighty warrior '' dressed in uniform, as it is generally known that he has a peculiar ankle , which he can throw out ol joint at pleasure : said ankle having been kept out of joint a good share of the time, while in the army, until he obtained his dis charge, Therefore, children feel afraid that when dressed in uniform, his ankle may be come dislocated ; and if it should he would, of course, fall—possibly on some of them. However, I think they have nothing to fear as he is rather small sized. Indeed he is so very small that when in the army, the gener als kept him for a pYaything ; or, using his own language—a pet. No doubi they thought they had Tom Thumb in camp, and anticipa ted the vast amount of shin plasters their treasure would bring them, when this " nig ger war" was over. He is, likewise, a very aged warrior, nearly as old as Methuselah I think judging from his conversation. He can tell precisely the time the May Flower land ed at Plymouth Rock, and was the first to Introduce the passengers to the ancestors of the Pedagogue. Indeed he is good at every thing. If he had remained in the army a short time longer, he might have been ap pointed commander-in-chief. What a pity that he let one ankle blast the fond hopes of all his friends ! In regard to the " Skule Mann's" green veil, if used at all it must have been about the time the call was made for cloths for both un ion and rebel soldiers, who were wounded, and at that time, suffering in the Hospitals* Perhaps she, fearing her " rebel " was among the wounded, had parted with her handker chief in hopes it might be of service to him. Or, probably she had lent it to Judson to wrap aronnd the limbs that were amputated by him while engaged in surgery, which is one of his numerous occupations- I think, however, that Wesley's eye sight mast have been rather poorer than common, at that time. Probably it was soon after he had locked Lizzie in the granary , where he placed her for inspection as he discovered that he couldn't discern small objects with his spy glass, when at a distance. No wonder that everything looked gieen to Wesley—es pecially when his Father insisted upon ta king (he keys and visiting tke granary him self. If the "Skule Marm had thought Judson would have felt slighted she, no doubt, would bave requested his services, and not " waded the creek to obtain those of the Pedagogue." What a pity, for her, that she didn't, for then a " copy" might have been sent to Horace Greeley or Lincoln , perhaps ; but note it must be consigned to the shades of llebeMom. In regard to the " watch which she carries as a memento of her rebel lover's devotion" I thiftk, judging from observation, it is the kind that does not " cease ticking and the finder ring the kind that does not lose its " unsullied brassness"—the mateiial not be ing beef bone like thoSe manufactured by Judson and Brother. • As to her private correspondence I am ignorant; having never aspired to so high an office as that of Postmaster's Assistant, con sequently have had no opportunity of taking a " sly peep" at letters, as they passed through the Post Office, In regard to the Shoemaker's son, I am satisfied that had it not been for the teaching of certain wooly heads, in this place, (who orfully hated to have a " copperhead" in their midst,) there would have been no neces sity of correcting him. In the blissful assurance of again hearing from Wesley and Judson, I remain Yours, till deth , Copperhead. Oct. 4, 1863. What cau be done with Paper. A writer in Blackwood's Magazine says it is wonderful to see the thousand useful, as well as ornamental, purpose?- to which paper is applicable ih the hands of the Japanese, lie Bay 9he saw it made into material so closely resembling Russian and Morocco leather and pig skin that it was difficult to delect the difference. With the aid of lac quer varnish and skillful painting, paper made excellent trunk*, tobacco bags, cigar cases' saddles, telescope cases, the frames of microscopes ; and tie even saw and used ex cellent water proof coats, mido of simple pa per winch did keep out the ram, and are as subtle as the best Mackintosh, The Japa nese use neither silk nor cotton haudker chiels, towels, nor dusters ; paper in their hands, serves as an elegant substitute. It is solt, thin, tough, of a pale, yellowish color, very plentiful and very cheap. The inner walls of many Japanese aparttneuts are form ed of paper, being nothing more than paint ed screens ; their windows are covered with a flue, translucent description of the same mateml ;it enters largely into the mauufac ture of nearly everything in a Japanese household ; and he 6aw what seemed to be balls of twine, but which were nothing but long shreds of tough paper rolled up. If a shop-keeper had a parcel to tie, he would take a strip of paper, roil it quickly between his hands, and use it for the purpose ; and it was quite as strong as the ordinary string* at home. In short, without paper, all Japan would comi to a dead-lock j aud, iadeed lest by the arbitrary exercise of his authority, a tyranical husband should stop his wife's pa per, the sage Japanese mother-in law inva riably stipulates that the bride is to navj al lowed to her a certain quantity of paper.
