CELEBRATION AT ANDOYER. - The
people of Andover celebrated the Fourth
in an appropriate manner, near the late
residence of Solomon Howard, joined by
large delegations from Grafton, Wind
ham, Chester and Londonderry. Ezra
Edison, Esq, was President of the Day
r. A Howard, Marshal; Rev. Mr.. Chap
man, of Windham, Chaplain; Orrison
Leonard, reader of the Declaration of In
dependence; George L. Fletcher, Esq, of
Chester, orator.
In attendance was the Grafton cornet
band, which appeared with fifteen men
and elegant instruments; and alsp band
of martial music, accompanied with the
roar of cannon. Over one thousand of the
lovers of freedom participated. The day
was fine, and all nature seemed to lend its
rays to beautify and heighteR the occa-
sion. The inner man was bOuntifully
supplied by the fair daughters of the vi
cinity, who filed tables of over 300 feet
in length, the edibles being given without
money or price.
Mr.. Flctcher's oratiou was an fl ,rt
worthy of the day. It WAS eud,r-rd by

MIDDLERuRY. VI, July l.

mlDDLEBUR1, ' Is u ulg L.
L.7j!1s- fev,ettueJC H6raot In your Issue
of yesterday is an account of trial of
mowers at Orwell, which gives an errone-
GUS impression as TO the quality of the
work done by the different mowers on
trial.
Jones says the Warrior, Wood'- and
Newell mowers received the preference as
to quality of cut, ease of work, etc This
may have been the Judgment and opinion
of Jones, or even of number OF the
Joneses, but not of the Smiths, or Of the
majority of the people present to witness
the trial. have now before me a letter
I received from what believe to be per-
fecty reliable citizen of Orwell, saying
that after the hay was raked off the lot
moved by the Kniffen, it was conceded by
all who examined the ground to be cut
the closest by all odds of any of the lots
cut by the different machines on trial, and
the Clipper stood No. 2 as to- shortness of
cut and stubblc, aud the Warrior No. ..
The same letter says it was the opiuion
generally that the draft of the Kniffen
was very light, probably the lightcst OF
any on trial.
So you will see, Mr.. Editor, that the
friends of the different mowers on trial
very naturally disagree as to the compare
tive merits of their favori'es, and as to
their performances on the day OF the
trial
As to the trial itself, there were no tests
except individual opinion, no committee
to Judge between the mowers or rakes,
but all the mowers and rakes performed
we'll in the light grass there handled.
have done had the grass teen thick and
fine, yielding two tons per acre, instead OF
less than one ton, is not so clear. Ger
tainly the trial was well calculated to ex-
hibit to advantage mowers and rakes ca
pable of light, easy work.
Yours truly, MAYBE SMITH.

Democratic Gains In Pennsylvania
and Indiana,

The following are the official returns of
democratic successes in Pennsylvania. In
the western districts three democratic con-

are elected. Griffith is gain, Foster is 8

this is so, this is q sixth gain. tioffat, dem

if Morrell is defeated.
The following democrats are elected in
Indiana: Niblack, in the LIST; Kerr, in the

9th. sitting members; Gooding, in the 4th
q gain Manson, democrat, beats Lew
Wallace, in the 7th, and Colerrick, demo
crst, is elected over Shsnks, radical in the
9th. Besides these three gains, the follow
ing state officers, all democrats, are ell

issue of freetrsde VS.. tariff and on this issue
P. L. Cable will beat John B. Hawley, who
voted with the tariff robbers every time
Hawley refuses to say a word upon the tariff
question, for ne knows full well that his
record is known to every voter in the dis
trict.
This defeat of Schenck in Ohio is q vic
tory worth half dozen radical congress.
men. Besides these, Ohio has another
democratic gain in the Fourth district,
where Mckinney, democrat, beats McClurg,
a tariff radical. Yet, in the face of these
gains. inc rAuicaIS only odmit the gain OF
one congressman by the democrats in all
these three states. 1t is the most outrageous
lying for the purpose of cheering up their
followers and discouraging democrats. The
intelligent voters in this district know better,
and will so demonstrate on election day.
Again we urge upon every democrat to be

we shall beat Hawley, the tariff candidate.

PAYS MORE TAX THAN THE WHOLE Rad
ICAL PACK

The Quincy Journal, supposed to be re-
publican, tries to make little capital out of
q lying statement that P. l. Gable, the
democratic candidate for congress in this
district doesn't pay his share of the taxes
This statement was started by the Union O.
this city; when its editor knew perfectly well
that Mr.. Cable pays more tax than all the
radical congressman in the state put to
gesher. They sag he has pm income of
$4,000, and lie only assessed $4,000 per-
sonal property, and from this they in fer tina,
he must be cheating the assessor. This il
a specimen Of their brilliant reasoning. 1t
is we'll known that he has this large income,
on which he pays a tax, and it is we'll known
also that this income is not invested in IN
taxed, gold.bearing bonds to avoid the tax
as prominent radicals dc, but is employed
building the Peoria and Rock Island Rail-
road, al enterprise that will benefit every
farmer in this county, and will benefit the
whole state as we'll. These facts
efsctually squelch the lying statements
about his avoiding the taxes.
Now will the Journal tell US how much
all the radical congressman in the State have
invested in untaxed bonds, and how much
tax they actually pay, and they will find
that Mr.. Cable pays more than the whole
crew. They don't like the idea of electing
a wealthy congressman from this district like
Mr.. Cabe,fo they know that the high tariff
men of Penns; lvania and Massachusetts, and
the salt boilers of New FORK cannot buy him to
vote against western interests, as they can
Havley, and that's what's the matter With
them. Again Hawlay dare not say word
on the tariff question. He can't speak
against it for fear of his eastern masters,
nor a word for it, for fear of losing votes
And on the whole it seems to be good policy
to elect . man from this district, who has
money enough, so that be cannot be bought
to vote against western interests.
