Mr. Olden's Ancestors.

At the ratification meeting in Trenton on
Tuesday night last, Mr. Dayton referred to a
communication in the True american, which
threw out the intimation that Mr. Olden's an
cesterS were connected with the Tories of the
Revolution. He thought this very unjust
end unfair charge But fortunately had the
pleasure of meeting it in an authoritative way
And said, g Mr.. Olden's ancestors were of
the true Wing stripe, At the battle of
Princeton, the grandfather of Mr.. Olden was
so active in the American cause that his cat
tie. horses and wagons were taken by the Brit
ish, and himself made prisoner. He had
two nephewS IN the Revolutionary War-one
of them was fighting at Princeton on the
American siGe, and the other was engaged in
feeding the watch-fres on the Assanpnk, for
the purpose of deceiVing the enemy, while

Death Of Nathaniel S, Wikoff.

DIED.-In this village, on Friday, Sept
30th ult, NATHANIEL S. WIKoFF, in the I'D
year of his age.
Mr.. Wikoff was the son of Col William
and Hannah Wikoff, and the grandson of DR..
Nathaniel Scudder, who fell, in the defence of
his country, during the war of the Revolution
He was born August II, 1888. In 1903 af-
ter the usual preparatory course of study pnr-
sued and finished at the school then taught by
the late Bishop Croes, in New Brunswick, he
entered the College Of New Jersey, where he
was graduated in 1906 Possessed of talents
and attanments which would warrant him in
expecting success and eminence in professional
life, he chose to enrol himself among the farm
ers of his native county, and with them he
claimed fellowship. OF those who visited him
while residing upon his farm, not few survive
him, who will remember the generous hospi-
tality, and kindly attentions which he delighted
to extend to his numerous friends and ac-
quaintances, whenever they gave him the
pleasure of acting as their host.
SgHis kindness and liberality to the poor, also
showed spirit Of beneVolence not confined to
certain classes or circles, but ready to sympa-
thlze and aid, wherever sympathy and aid
were needed.
In later years, becoming peeaniarily embar-
raised, he gave up his entire estate, and re-
duced himself to poverty in order to satisfy
the just claims Of creditors His friends have
to mourn that, at this period of his life, har-
raised by cares he yielded, for time, to the
temptation which has proved so potent, SC
dangerous, and often so fatal to many in sim
liar circumstances They recall this passage
| in yit If ;of 4
oy-grief at the fall-oy at the subsequent
restoration.
The last years of his life we're spent in re.
tirement, and it is a source of unspeakabe
consolation to his bereaved relatives, that
they have good reason to believe that, in his
retirement, he sought and obtained the Chris
tans hope, and that their loss is his gain. In
a conversation some months since, with a near
relative, he distinctly expressed his hope of
salvation through the merits Of crucifed
| lSedeemer, and on the day of his death used
language to the same effect, although neither
he, nor the members of his family thought the
end was so near.
1t is pleasing coincidence too, that in the
New Testament which he used in his daily
| readings, among the passages which he had
marked-and they were few, for he was not
in the habit of marking passages in reading
was the one from which the clergyman select
ed his text, (lst Cor. Is: 36), as the basis
of the excellent discourse delivered on the oc-
casion of the funeral. 1t is a coincidence
pleasing to the friends of the deceased mas
much as it shows that his faith reposed on the
doctrine Of a glorious reserection; that it was
one that he delighted to contemplate, and in
which he fonnd comfort amid the im6rmities
and gradual decay of declining years.-Dem-
ocrat

Corruption of the Administration.

The New York Herald has an elaborate ar
ticle upon the organization of the next House
of Representatives. This article, coming from
the first Democratic paper of n. York, ad-
mits that if the advice of Winter Davis OF
Maryland and the Richmond Wing, shall be
adopted by the Anti-Lecompton members and
the South Americans joining the Republicans
in organizing the next House, power will be
given to inquire into the Democratic plumber
ings upon the public treasury, which will show
so corrupt and dishonest condition of things
as to sweep thesparty froms power as in 1910.
The Herald admits that fair Committees of
Investigation conld furnish evidence Of cor
ruption which wonld be destructive to the De-
mocracy.
The Herald says this condition of things
was left by Perce's Administration as leg
acy to Mr. Buchanan, who had done all that
he could to remedy the corruptions and blum
ders left him by poor Pierce.
Here we have the frank admission of Mr.
Duchanan's organ in New York, that in case
the Organization of the next Heuse should ad
nit of the appointment Of fair Committees Of
Investigation into the frauds and corruptions
of the last eight years, they would destroy the
party.
We cannot think that Haskin, who staked
his reputation upon the Investigation of the
Willett's Point Swindle, or Clark, who backed
him in it, or Hickman, who could neither
be bought nor intimidated, or Adrain, upon
whom extGeme Executive influence was wasted,
will be found wanting in an effort to so organ
ize the next House, by the election of Speak
er who will appoint Committees of the House
who will not hesitate to probe to the bottom
these pracies upon the public revenues.
We should be willing to see the Republi-
cans join in electing either Clark, Haskin Or
Hickman as Speaker Of the next House if it
were deemed necessary. 1t needs bnt six OF
the ten Anti-Lecompton votes to give the Or
ganizaton of the next House to the Opposi-
ton. 1t would hardly seem possible with con-
cesson and moderation on the part of Repub-
liGans, that they can fail in accomplishing this
most important object. -PatersOn Gua' dian

Gen. Parker at New Brunswick.

We copy the following from the New BrCn-
Swlck FREEDMAN, in order to show some of the
aeans used by Democratic stump-speakers,
and the Press of the same party, to defeat the
election of Mr. Olden.
Gen. Parker, of Monmouth, was then in
trodaced. The Democracy, according to his
ideas of the matter, was a great and glorious
party, and had done more for the Union than
all the other parties combined He said he
couldn't say much about Mr. Olden, because
he knew scarce anything bad of him, but new
ertheless asserted that he had voted against
everything that was good and proper in
the Senate. He said that Mr. Olden had
voted against certain resolutions of thanks to
the New-Jersey Soldiers of the Mexican War,
loifered by Democrat for political effect. I
and read one or two Of them, but not the
whole He dwelt upon this with great deal
OF strenuousness, and managed to excite the
patriotic sympathies Of the audience no little
thereby. He however neglected to tell the
whole story in relation to the matter, nor gave
the reasons why Mr.. Olden voted to lay the
resolutions of thanks on the table He didn't
state that Mr.. Olden himself moved to lay the
resolutions of thanks on the table for the pur-
pose of introducing concurrent resolution
that the members of Congress be requested to
urge Congress. or the proper department., to
REMUNERATE the soldiers for expenditures incur
red by them in the Mexican War This fact
Mr.. Parker omitted, because it would net an
swer has purpose Of deluding the people who
heard him! In this case the Democracy wan
ted TO MGmk the soldiers and Mr.. Olden to
PAY them. Of course Mr.. Oden did helm
GUS thing in SO doingl Mr.. P. said General
Wright was as respectable man as Mr. Oh
den and that all the stories told about bis
character were lies. He said the Chancellor
question was the only practical issue in this
contest and that the fu.ure existence of the
Court of Chancery depended upon General
Wright'S election. This a0e suppose means
that the Democratic Senate would refuse to
appoint any other Chancellor than Williamson,
if Mr.. Olden should hpppen to be elected and
should nominate any other man for that posi-
tion"
Thus it will be seen, according to General
Parker's theory, that the "loaves and fishes"
are the only things at stake Jas far as the
Sham-D Democracy are concerned in the pres
ent contest. Just wha5 we thought.
