Cliurltlown Illiiri'S Willi Patriotic Ilcmo- eincy The Free Silver Ticket Several if the Loral Candidate and Other thing Knthnslastleally Katlfleri. Saturday last two mysterious packages enveloped in horse blank ets and carefully guarded were con veyed to the residence of a well- known citizen of Dingman township for reasons which will be made ap parent as this voracious narrative proceeds. These packages on ar riving at their destination were ten dirly removed and placed on ice. When the sun had veiled his face in the western mists, the chickens gone to roost, and tired nature was being wrapped in sweet repose, numbers of the sturdy yeomanry of classic Chucktown were seen wending their way to tho home of ''Dory." Anxi ous enquiry was made as to the health and propinquity of the blank et enveloped bundles, and ample as surance given that they were peace fully reposing in the ice box, and were only awaiting the arrival of the orators before placing their con tents on duty. It wa suggested that some of the party go in search of the loved, but absent ones, but this met with disapproval, no ad vantages could bo taken at this stage, and all proposed to keep an eyes on their best friends. Soon, emerging from tho fast closing gloom came a dignifiod and careful official of that township, Mr. Fisher, the constable, making his rounds to seo that the law wa; carofully obeyed and guide boards were all nil, attracted by tho gathering he paused, and was promptly called on for a speech. Taking something to clear his throat he began by explain ing that he had heard wafted on the evening breezes a whisper of free beer, that the siren voice accom panied by an overwhelming instinct to perforin his official duties strictly, had impelled his footsteps thither, and that tho idea of liaving all ono could lay to, f roe beer in short, was something for which any Democrat would bo willing to die for with neatnoss and dispatch. "Dory" now took the stump and explained to the thirsty crowd that the two silent friends were West- brook and Heller, and they wore on tap. Cheers for those worthies and Deniocraoy in general drowned for sometime his husky voice, but he resumed by saying, he had reluc tantly consented to permit those gatherings in the interest of the noble cause of free silver, and all he asked the boys was that they would be careful not to trample his lawn, break down his shrubbery, or kill his cows, otherwise everything was hospitably placed at their disposal, and ho suggested sampling W. This done footsteps were heard and the dignified "Piko" apiieared. Satisfy ing himself amply that the contents of W. wore not poisonous, he was appealed to for a speech. Rising with dignity he said it was somewhere stated that where the cags were there would tho faithful be found gathered together, and whilo this was not the exact language of the orginal yet the appropriateness of the utterance was more than mani fested by the fact. He then gave his reasons for supporting the ticket incidentally alluding to the obvious situation tliat at certain stages many things needed support, but he laid particular stress on the fact that the platform proposed to reform tho Courts and in order to show the burning need for this it was only necessary to read his able article in the Gazette of April 8th. Cries of "come to the pint," led him to enter into an elaborate discussion of the gold and silver question, and, inad vertently mentioning the Republi cans as believing in the gold cure only, a voluntary shudder passed through the audience and spasmo die efforts were made to cling more closely to the iieeled hemlocks. The subject was distastiful and he was invited to get down. He got, and asked for refreshments. "Dory" now made the announcement that W. was dry but that II . was full and they would proceed to tap hi m. While this interesting process was tieing successfully consummated the orators of the evening Messrs Klaer and Hon. J. J. Hart acoom pained by Presidential Post-master Gale put in an apponrtinca. They stated that in taking an evening walk they had heard sounds, and being anxious to know from whence they proceeded, and by what occasional thoy had followed a natural impulse, which brought them to the spot. Cheers greeted these embodiments of offi. cial dignity, and visions of unlimit ed free beer dawnod on the assem blage. Mr. Klaer was invited to take the stump. Modestly he dis claimed oratorical powers, but said when it came to counting spokes by jokey he would not take a back seat for any Chucktowner. He promised that if elected to the office of Asso ciate Judge ho would measure out justice for them with the same even hand he did a white ook butt. This touching similitude brought tears to the eyes of some of his auditors who had been there, and they hastily proceeded to drown their emotions in copious draughts of the contents of Heller while "Dory" who fondly clung to that gentlomans wooden re presentative was soen to furtively wipe the froth from his eyes several times. Mr. William Holbort, who is at present a boarder with "Dory" rose after repeated calls and bonignly glancing over the audience remarked that he was not very conversant with the gold and silver question, but he was a Dimmycrat and had been voting that ticket, with casual interruptions occasioned by change of rosidence.for many years. He said stick to tne ticket therein lios our only hope of free beer. Vociferous cheors greeted this axiom and Hel ler was again called in requisition. "Dory', now introduced the orator of tho evening par excellence Hon. J. J. Hart. That gentleman con scious of a weight of honor and dig nity resting upon him said, " Poota nascitur, non fit, so it may be said of me, I was born an orator, editor nid member of Congress and not made so by any extraneous circum stances. I come before you on this auspicious and eventful occasion to congratulate you in the fact that you have such an eloquent repres entative- 111 health has prevented me from sooner displaying my won derful magnetism as an orator, but now I purpose rising to the oc casion. I was placed on the naval appropriations committee that I might secure a large appropriation for building a ship canal up the Sho hola creek so that material could bo easily transported to the Bits of the proposed national observatory to be located on the top of High Knob, a project dear to my heart, and which would likewise have been dear to the government had not the jiesky Republicans refused consent. Think of the uast sums which could have boon easily exponded.and then think too what those sums would imply to tho thirsty of this, my constituency." The thought of the deprivation caused the crowd to hastily hide their sorrowing contenances behind sundry tomato cans partially filled with the contents of Heller, and "Dory" who had been anxiously tapping on the wooden head of that gentleman, discovered an empty sound. The look of dismay on his countenance became contagious.and the speech of Mr. Hart floated on and out to the bluo ethereal and into the star-gemmed space beyond un heeded. "Dory" announced that the meet ings might be held at his place if the conditions were kept and promised the candidates that if free beer enough was furnishod he would rai6 the dimmycratic majority in Ding man 15 feet higher than it ever had boon before. With three cheers for the local candidates, and a tigor for Brine and Bwatson, and free sliver this enthusiastic and characteristic assemblage of patriots adjourned to meet at the same place in one week proudod the cundidutot. placed the stuff on tup.

Speaking of good local papers puts it into my mind that there is a Re- publican paper called tho Pike County Press, published over in Pike county, Pa.

The editor of the Press is J. Hixon Von Etten, who is a lawyer, and what makes him a good editor i& because he has red hair. Cor. Register. BRIEF MENTION.

Some prepare their own gold ; others get it from the gold beaters, but the greater part obtain it from dental supply firms. This gold is put up in eight-ounce packages, packed in small glass phials, each containing a faction of an onnce. The cylindrical pieces of gold in it are goldfoil of a very soft and spongy kind. when dressed into a hollow tooth, one of these cylinders will not take up one-twentieth of the srae it oc cupied in the bottle. About $10,000- 000 is now concealed in the mouths of the people in the world. A Good Garden. Last week while driving along one of the country roods of Piko, we stopped at the farm owned by Charles Ott in Delaware township, but rented and worked by John Schreiber.
