SUCCESS OF. THE UNION.


Our efficient and gentlemanly Agent,
JoHN, d. JONES, Esq, has added thirty
nine new and responsible subscribers to
cur list within the last two weeks. The
list at Orange is now the largest in the
County. Old Orange is always right,
either at the election or elsewhere. We
return our thanks to many Democrats
who have volunteered their assistance
whenHeeded. A kind word, well put
in, will effect a great deal sometimes.
Mr.zJoNEs will continue to canvass the
north part of the County next week.
We hope Democrats will continue to
lend him a helping band. We want
twelve hundred subscribers, and we be-
lieve that that many can be obtained out
osthetw thousand Democratic voters of
which little Ashland can boast. With
such a list, the days of Black Republi-
canism in this County would soon be
numbered All right-push en- the
ball.

Awful tragedy

John G. Fleming and Henry w. Elem
ing, sons of Capt. William Fleming, for
merly of Cumberland County, Pa, but
now residing at Monmouth, Ill, were
killed on the 18th inst, at the latter
place, by a man named Crosier. A let
ter in the Rochester american gives the
following particulars of the sad affair:
Mr.. Fleming, who is an elderly gen.
tleman, and his two sons, about 25 to %
years of age, had called upon Mr.. eros
Ter at his rooms at the Baldwin House,
armed each with loaded pistol, to CO.
cree the latter gentleman into a conces'
sion and retraction of calumny affecting
their daughter and sister, with which
they charged Mr.. G. Mr.. c., after some
pretty warm language had passed be-
tween the parties, agreed to and did sigr
a ~retraetion in the presence of a friend
whom the Messrs. Fleming had brought
with them.
Immediately after delivering the pa.
per into the possession of their friend

ing a cooked pistol in his hand, directed
the other to infict the threatened pun
ishment, which he Immediately com
menced. He had struck three or fou,
blows; when G. pulled a dirk knife from
a side pocket, and passing at the SAM
time his hand around the neck of the
one who piled the lash, stabbed him il
the left breast, and, as quick as thought
withdrew the knife and struck the on.
who held the pistol, a backhand blow
which reached, as did the first, to the
heart of his victim. Both brothers re
ceived their death wounds, in less thar
two seconds, and both were bloody
corpses in less than three minutes after
they were struck.
The sympathies of the people arr
mostly with Crosier, who gave himsel
up. He acts and looks the picture o
despair. He is a young man, some 2i
or so years old, and unmarried. He il
said to have been engaged to the LADY

JUST COMPLIMENT.

The Liverpool Times, with less pre-
tensions than its London namesake, un-
derstands American politics and the
American character much better. Com
menting on our late Presidential elec-
ton, it thus pays US a compliment which
no other people yet merit: cit is amaz-
ing how soon party spirit, carried to
the verge of excess, subsidies in the
United States when the will Of the SOW
ereign people becomes known. The mi
nority bow with instructive respect to
that numerical preponderance which it
is the genius of the American constitu-
ton to represent. However fierce the
struggle, however superhuman the eff
forts which have been made to secure
victory, the belligerents, when the bat
tie is over, lay down their arms without
FORGETTING each others respect. Il re-
quires a long source of educational train
ing in practical freedom to attain this
control, but it is possessed by the Amer
leans to an extent unknown in any other
country where free institutions exist /;
and the solution of the enigma must be
looked for in the fact that every man
feels himself an atom in the great total
the equal of the formost in the land I;
and the self-respect SO generated pays
to the State the homage of an ungrudg-
ing submission. Men deserve to be free
who can make such sacrifices for indi-
Evidual opinion, and yet yield with pat
riot philosophy to the course of events
which they cannot control. The Union
stands in little danger of disruption
Ewhile this noble sentiment animates the
breasts of American citizens"

Adhering to his Friends.

"Burleieh,' the intelligent cores
pondent of the Boston Journal, in a re-
cent letter, wherein he speaks OF the ho-
tells Of philadelphia. merE;ors the fol
lowing incident 10 the Ii # Mr. Bu-
chauan, which Is interesting, 50 showing
a noble trait III the Oh ractcr OF + Pres
ident elect:
In an humble but quite respectable
part of the city oi P.nA is a tiotei, called
the Merchants Hotel. 1t was once a
first class hotel, but the Girard, La
Pierre and others nave reduced it to a
lower rank. 1t is now a quiet, respec-
table, comfortable home, but quite out
of the fashion, and seldom visited by the
ton. 1t ranks with your Franklin
House, the Exchange Coffee-house and
similar places. When Mr.. Buchanan
was quite a young man, the Merchants
Hotel was the hotel of the city it was
then kept by Mr.. McKibbon, the father
of the present proprietors. This was
Mr.. BPS home in Philadelphia, when he
came to the city; and he has adhered
to it through all his changes of position
as a public man-when in the State
Legislature, when in Congress, when
Secretary of State, when in the Cabinet,
when on the way to the Court of st.
James, when he was nominated, and now
when he is President elect, he still
stands by the friends of his youth, who
stood by him in less palmy days. Great
efforts have been made to get Mr.. Blu
chanan into more elegant and fashiona-
Bile quarters, but all in vain. The roof
that sheltered his young head, is the
one he has selected under which to re-
pose with the honors of a nation about
him.
But though Mr.. Buchanan has not
changed, the Merchants Hotel has. II
has become the favorite house of many
eminent men since November. Colonel
Forney has here his home, and the reg.
lister is crowded with the names of dis
tinguished men, who have found out al
at once that the Merchants Hotel ii
quite an establishment" As the eye
runs over the roll of arrivals, it see:
that Colonel this one, Major that, Hon.
Mr.. g., and so on through the al
phabet, coming all the way from Flori-
da, Alabama and so on through down to
Maine, have from some whim or caprice.
selected this once quiet comparatively
unknown house as their home. But be
the motives of the visitors what they
may, it shows a noble trait of character
in Mr.. Buchanan to adhere, in his rising
fortunes, to that home where he found
good friends and comfort when he began
to battle with life, and started out tc
win a name and place in the world.

full price, and it is only seized wit b
these economical fits when a Democrat

dispose of. Our position. on this matter
of printing we are willing all should
know and understand. We have never
charged the County for any work more
than we would have charged a private

why the County should be favored above
individuals, nor do we intendso to favor
it. All the printing required by the
Republican County officers the Times

of our Democratic County officers. We
shall enter into no bidding, but shall
require for all the labor we perform for
the County a fair compensation-such a
compensation as we are willing to swear
before any Court of Justice to be rea.

of the Times, for the purpose of Grip

work required by Democratic officers:
