New JERSEY.

Com. X. +. STOCKTON, of New Jersey, pre-
diets that state will achieve a victory in No
vember that shall place her among the proud
est of her sister States In his letter to
the Democratic State Convention recently hol-
den at Trenton, he expresses his high saiisfac-
ton of the nominations of Pierce and King,
concluding in an eloquent appeal 10 the New
Jersey democrats as follows g
~. Democrats Of Ne,v Jersey, STAND BY YOUR
BANNER. Your war-worn, invncbe Banner
the Banner of Progress and Reform the
mountaineering Banner, under which the Alien
Ldlo was expunged from your statute book,
and equal rights and fraternity offered to the
oppressed of all nations your adapted and
naturallzed citizens will not desert it.
Democrats of New Jersey stand by your BAN
ner-that glorious banner under which Louis
lana was brought into the Union. The Louis
ianidns will not desert it, The banner under
which Ieras was brought into the Unon.-
The Ttnans will not desert it. The banner
under which California was conquered for the
Union. Tie Californians will not desert it.
Democrats euery1ohere, stand by your banner
that beloved banner, under which our ever
to-be-cherished Union has thrice been saved
from anarchy, dissolution, and blood. The
Union men will not desert it.
All hail The Union and the Democratic
party one and insepdrable"

A Tran for the Irish.

The wing party is playing deep game to
entrap our Irish citizens into the support of
Scott. Truman Smith, that arch Scott dema-
gogue, boasts, "rcc hare laid trap this time,
which The locos cannot spring-THE lRlSH!'
We advise our Irish citizens 10 look out for
them. Their pretended love for the Catholics
is of late date. Scott said in 1874, and let ey-
cry freshman recollect it, "My mind inclines
to TOTAL REPEAL of the laws for NATURAL1z-
ALTON" A residence of TWENTY ONE
YEARS before naturalization, he thought
would be an improvement on the present law.
Will any well informed foreigner vote for a
man guilty of uttering such an illiberal and an
ti-repnbicah sentiment as this!d Again we
say 10 the numerous and highly respectable
portion of our naturalzed citizens Do not
allow yourselves 10 be tricked into the support

Winter is Coming,

The signs of approaching winter are already
visible. Gay and variegated hues appear on
the forest trees frost covers the hill and val
ley, and the chill of the night air speaks ont
the fact that winter is coming, with felt and
unerrng certainty. Prepare for it. Thin
shoes and thin clothing have sent many man
and woman to the grave of the consumptve.-
In this latitude it is useless 10 think of living
without personal care for personal comfort.
Then have your wardrobe replenshed. Wear
flannel, cotton or wool, next to the skin, and
never allow yourself 10 stand or sit in shiver-
ing condition anywhere. .-.
One of the greatest comforts in The cold win
tiers of this cold country, is warmth. We like
to feel it anywhere-in politics, religion or the
parlor. Then lay in a good stock of fuel
Stop up the cracks about the doors and win
dows-if you keep up warmth by stoves and
funnel, no matter-a stove heated room needs
ventilation dozen times day. Hunt up the
gloves and mttens, the waterproof boots and
fur caps, the overcoats and comforters Win
ter is coming .......
Live comfortably and temporarily, in the
enjoyment of good conscience resulting from
keeping the heart warm 10 the appeals of the
needy and suffering, and doing unto others as
you would have them do INTO you-and we
do not see as you need 10 make yourself IN
happy about the coming of winter. Let it
come .-4.H. .... ......l

Panama.
The shipments by the California amount
ed to S2,l32,4S7 in gold dust. The total
shipments since the first of January have
been S29, 1875 ,965
The San Francisco Herald saws, that from
accounts we daily receive from the mining
regions, there is every reason TO believe that
the gold deposits are so extensive that they
will furnish employment TO thousands Of
miners for one hundred years TO come.
The decision OF Judge Anderson in the
fugitive slave case occupies three columns
of the San Francisco papers. He was re-
manded 10 the custody OF his owner.
Some few cases Of cholera had occurred at
San Francisco, but it excited but little alien
ton, as The general health Of the city differed
buI slightly from ordinary seasons.
destructive fire occurred at Treka. Aug.
18th. The loss was esiima ted at So, 900.
A train of thirteen wagons arrived at
Treka on the Goth. They brought the intel
ligence of the murder of eight men between
Humboldt River and Treku, by the Indians.
Political excitement is intense in Calilor-
MIA.
The mining news is most encouraging
from various parts of the State.
| In the vicinity of Sonora, a great inquiry
is made for forming lands, and it is probable
large portion Of the emlgrants this year

FROM 1.-THE SOUTH" Gen. Foote is doing
great service in the South for Pierce and King.
He is on the stump every day, and thousands
flock TO hear his eloquent arguments for de-
mocracy. The democrats of Louisiana calcu-

1913 by about 1000 majority.
The Washington correspondent of the Bus-
ton Post alluded to above, says the signs OF the
times as viewed at Washington are suspicious.
We copy the following extract from his letter
in the Post Of Saturday last, and shall take the
earliest opportunity TO give our readers another
chapter of the brilliant prospective: e.
"We have intelligence here from all Sec
lions of the country, and the democratic par
" were never in better spirits on the eve Of
an election. The south will go for Pierce
aud King in phalanx. The west and
northwest vilfespond 10 the patriotic SEN

York are firmly united. Thus united, the
Empire State is good for 5000 majority
Old Pennsylvania is democratic to the back
bone, and Ohio is ditto.

MORE FRAUDS IN CoNTEMpI.ATIoN.-I
ately after our State election, the New York
Tribune said shat influences were SILENTLY
AT WORK m Maine that might give the State
to Scott. The Aryus says,
We have obtained clue to those influences
The Wings are preparing FRAUDULENT certificates
TO the effect that Gen. Pierce is incorporate,
and these they purpose to distribute simulta-
neously all over the State when it will be too
late to contradict them. They hope thus to
sway the temperance Democrats against Gen.
Pierce.
A more contemtibly base scheme, probably,
was never known in our polical history
However, we are prepared for almost anything
of this nature from our opponents. 1t is not
long since similar charge was brought against
the character of our worthy candidate for gov
ernor, at public meeting in this city. Let
Democrats beware of such mean insinuations
and falsehood.

" History of Gardiner" &c.

Mr.. EDITOR II regret extremely that l
have been so unfortunate as to excite the in
dignation of the author of the History of Gar
diner. as nothing was farther from my inten-
ton when 1 noticed his book. He is strang-
err to me, and was actuated by the kindest
motives both to himself and the public, mean
ing only to give a few detached tntimations
which might be of use in the Encouragement
of his work without specifying its inaccura-
cies.- crave the clemency of the gentleman,
not meaning 10 quote Scripture, and if it is
true that my ambition outruns my knowl-
edge" can only hope for the sympathy of
hin, who may be similarly constituted.
1 reverence the clergy and admire their sim
gle heartedness, when devoting the whole en-
ergy of soul, to the holy labor to which they
are called, and moving in sphere of elevation
far removed from the noise, and confusion of
this busy world-they leave the things Of earth
for grosser minds. Notwithstanding the high
state of agitation in which the author finds
himself, he confesses "there are undoubtedly
errors of data in the book" and wherefore is
only repeat that a genealogical tree, shorn of
its branches, or engrafted with strange vine
is no perfect tree. When he calls me a strang-
er to the family alluded to, he makes another
statement, Of which he give no proof-he
may be correct, or he may not.
But to the point. In seven consecutive
lines on page los. he is twice at fault for past
question, William Gardiner did not marry
"Downer,'' and Margaret Fl. Gardiner did no,
marry Rev. L. F.Fales, but her daughter did. In
his particulars OF another branch of the Gardi-
ner family, he could have cleaned his
items from the most reliable authority, for in
giving the names of his children, Mr.. Allen
would probably not have forgotten to mention
two daughters, Zone here, the other in heaven)
and his eldest son, whose rare virtues while
living, should have saved him from such OBJ
iivion. l still think the historians of marvel
lous tales, have never recorded a circumstance
more wonderful than that mentioned page
l72, beginning at the 10th line from the top,
where the author records the birth of Robert
II. Gardiner, ''during the absence Of his pa
rents = There are several other statements
made in connection with this family, which
seem not correct but really the account is SO
conflicting and ambiguous that l am at a loss
in trying to determine its meaning. l owe an
apology to the patrons of the Times for this
second intrusion into the columns of that well
conducted paper, for probably uery .fe,o of its
readers know even of the existence of the book
in question, it having but limited circulation
and having but little interest in it myself, |
take my leave of the History of Gardiner and
