The Late Stern.

The severest hail storm, accompanied
by heavy wind, lightning and thunder,
passed over this place on Friday evening
last, that has visited this section of coun-
try within the memory of the oldest in
habitant. 1t commenced about three o.
clock P. NJ. and lasted for the space of
twenty minutes. 1t was so heavy that it
broke almost every pane of glass IN the
windows of the houses of our borough
that were exposed to the west. Consider
able damage was also done to the timber
and fences in the surrounding country
We have heard of a number of cattle be-
ing killed by the falling of trees. After
the storm was over boy, whose name
we do not recollect, was found dead on a
road in the north part of this county. 1,

1t is a matter of astonishment how the

DEMOCRATS
To the Rescue!

! Tuesday next is the day or
which the great battle will be
fought in Pennsylvania. Demo.
Gratis, are you ready? Have YOU
studied we'll your duty? Have you
reasoned together and determined
to keep your ancient faith and fight
under your ancient banner? Have
you seen your neighbors, and ex.
ercised your influence with them
in behalf of the great cause in
which you have been laboring for
years? If you have not done this
ALREADY, make it your business to
do it quickly. The ascendancy of
the great principles of your party
should be regarded as of sufficient
Importance in your eyesto demand
at your hands the performance of
at least this simple duty.
Arouse then from your lethargy.
Devote one day to the service of
your country and the maintenance
of your principles. The foul spirit
of DisOrganizatiOn stalks abroad
in your midst, endeavoring to lead
you astray, and political dema-
gogues are busy tampering with
your feelings and best interests.
Pay no attention to them, but treat
them with that contempt which
their unhallowed schemes deserve.
Stick to your ticket and your
principles, and let no considera-
ton, however weighty, induce you
to falter in your allegiance to your
party.
Turn out, then, one and III
Rain or shine, let nothing prevent
you from attending the polls, and
exercising the rights of a freeman.
See that no tricks are played upon
you with false tickets.
Be at the polls early. Be active,
be vigilant, and see that every
democrat in your township has
voted. Your enemies will leave
no stone unturned in order to de-
feat you, and you MUST WORK
fyou ,oish to be successful. Per-
NIT no feelings of personal ami
mostly or the hope of gratifying
private revenge, to influence you
in the support of your ticket. Del
fermine to be successful and moth
ing under heaven can defeat you. |
Vote The entire democratic ticket
and nothing but the ticket. Attend
10 these things, democrats, as it is
your duty to do, and victory will
perch once more upon your BAN
ner.
