Mistakes.--Tbe editor of the Star of the West
furnishes the following modest attempts at correcting
rather wide spread mistakes:
1t is mistake to suppose that the subscription
price of the paper is clear gain to the publisher.
1t il mistake to think that he gets his white pa
per for nothing.
1t is mistake to suppose it is printed without
cost.
1t is mistake to suppose that he can live bodily
by faith
| erybody,
1t is a mistake to suppose that money due for the
paper would he just good to in year it wod
be now.
1t is a mistake to suppose that he would not be
thankful for what is due him and for new subscribers
Another Evidence of No-Party.--David
Fairchld, an industrious, Horty man, and good
citizen of Kingston Borough has little contract for
carrying weekly mail between Kingston and Tunk-
hammock, ria Bowman'S Creek. He has regularly
carried this mail to the satisfaction of everybody in
terested, during the past, and thus fan during the
present National Administration. until last week
when 10 and beholdl he received pronunciGment0
from Washington that unless he could prove hum
self loyal man, his services would no longer be ac-
cCptable." Thus it goes with this no-party Admin
istration! Mr.. Fairchi.d is a Democrat, and would
not relinqush his right of thought speech at the
behest of any man party. But this immaculate
Abolition dynasty cannot allow Democrat the
smallest privil ge without subjecng him to the gull
lotine They demand unconditional obesance to
the Abolition God their test of loyalty While
singing out 'no-party' they turn out every Demo-
crat who holds three shilling post Office to make
place for hungry abolit onist.-Luzerne Union.

the past ten or twelve years. and devotedly at
