Men are apt to denounce all projects pro-
posed,
Which they do not at once comprehend,
TO discourage, instead of promoting a good,
Too often their efforts they lend.
In all ages improvement projectors have met
With discouragements in every plan
For the comfort, domestic and public,
Of that sprig Of ofhumanity-man,
It is very unsafe to affirm positively,
This thing or that cannot be done,
Notwithstanding prognostics of failure some
times,
Important achievements are won.

The Enrolment Board,

Has now been in session in our borough
for nearly two weeks, and will probably
leave for Easton on Saturday. Since the
Board has been in session here numbers
of our own citizens, and citizens of the
other counties of the District, have trans
acted business with it, and we have yet
to hear the first word of complaint. All
with one accord speak in the highest
terms of the gentlemanly manner in which
they have been treated, and the prompt
ness with which everything in the way
of business has been done. Men who had
been prejuiiced by the evil reports which
had reached them were the loudest IN
praise of the Board, and its clever Clerks

Donations.

In view of the high price of every
thing eatable and wearable, and of the
fact that ministers salaries have not
been increased, it becomes the especial
duty of the public to make their donations
as liberal as their means will allow We
hope this duty has not been overlooked
thus far. this season, and that it will not
be in the donations yet to come off =
The card for Mr. Seifert's donation will
be found in this paper.

Snow.

Snow fell at this place on Friday night
last to the depth of nearly foot. As
the ground was in good order to receive it,
and slight sprinkling of rain on Satur-
day packed it sufficiently to prevent drift
ting, those of our citizens who have the
means or conyeniences, have now an op-
ortunity of enjoying as good sleighing as
we have had for many years. Of course
We do not rank with the fortunate ones
The snow storm extended over a large
scope of country.

Exemption from the draft.

The last draft proved failure in not
producing the full unmber of men drawn
and called for, there being deficiency of
say one-fourth in the aggregate. To com
pensate for this deficiency, recourse is to
be had to liberal system of recruitment
particularly Of veterans exempt from the
draft, and another conscription. The
failure of the first draft was attributed to
the $500 clause, and consequently that
the lack of full ranks is to be attributed
to the wholesale desertion ofbounty jump
ers and others who go as substitutes
Consequently in the coming draft, the
provision of substitution will be with
drawn, and personal service of the con-
script required as the only method of
filing up the ranks.
We have no one to blame for this rig
orus course of recruitment but ourselves,
for men in many localities, instead of
equalizug the chances of the draft, by
aiding in the enrolment and thereby
augmenting the number to be drawn,
have done every thing in their power to
cucumber the eurolling officer, and to aid
in the desertion of those declared for
service.
There is another important duty which
falls upon every citizen, and that is the
correction Of the rolls by the erasure OF
the names OF such as are exempt by rea-
son of age, disease or other cause. AS
every name stricken off reduces the pro-
portion of the district quota, our mutual
burden is lessened, and assuredly it is
more convenient to tender the ground ex-
emption in advance, than to await the
happening of chance in drawing. As
far as our district is concerned, we trust
that our citizens will see the Importance
of this forethought and act upon it at
once.

From bad to Worse.

When a man once talnst himself with
immortality, there is no limit to his deg
radiation, and particularly is this remark
true with respect to the numerous scions
of the T. L. VS.. who have undergone a
preliminary training in the peculiar
school of larceny, which constitutes dis
tinctive brauch Of Confederate warfare,
and which eunobles poultry theft, wkile
canonizing bank robbery and arson.
Some weeks back a Mexican mail coach
was robbed by a party Of armed banditte.
Among the felons captured, was discove-
red Captain Vance of the rebel Colonel
Forde's staff, and son to the governor of
North Carolina, who was at the time, as
discovered by documents on his person,
absent from his command ION special SER
vice" This service appears of similar
character with that devolving upon the
Canadian refugees, who, We presume,
have equal license to rob mail bag OF
Her Majesty, as Vance assumes on the
Texan border, provided the patriotic de
predators escape irregular detection.

Ayre's Ague Cure.
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF


htermittenssferer, or Feper and Aguc,
Ren,utcm Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Feoers, indeed
for the uhole class of diseases oriyina-
ting IN hillary arrangement, caused by
the Malaria Of miasmattc- countries.
Fever and Ague is not the only conse-
quence of the miasmetic poison. A great
variety of disorders arise from its irritation,
in malarious districts, among which are Neu-
ra lgla, Rheumatism, Gout. Headache, Blind
ness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma,
Palptation, Painful Affection of the Spine,
Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels, Collie, Para
ysis, and Derangement of the Stomach, all
of which, when originating in this cause put
on the intermittent type, or become periodi-
cal. This "Cure" expels the poison from
the blood, and thus cures them all alike. II
is not only the most effectual remedy ever
discovered for this class of complaints, but
it is the cheapest AID moreover is perfectly
safe. No harm can arise from its use, and
the p,tient when cured is left as healthy as
if he had never had the disease. Can this
be said of any other cure for Chills and Fe-
Yer! 1t is true of this, and its importance
to those afflicted with the complaint cannot
be over estimated So sure is it 20 cure the
Fever and Ague, that it may be truthfully
said to be a certain remedy. One Dealer
complains that it is not good medicine to
sell, because one bottle cures whole neigh
berhood.

the Jeffcrsonian, couple of weeks ago,
a correspondent of the Monroe Democrat
says, that Mr.. Coolbaugh voted early in

Immediately after he voted, and that he
did not make his appearance there again

The names on these lists are usually put
