THANKSGIVING FOR RAIN,
FArRToN, N. j., June 18th, 1871.

FAIRToN, n. j., June 18th, 1871.
Mr.. EDIToR.-We awoke this Monday
morning, to hear the precious rain pouring
down upon the roof After long delay, and
many ardent wishes and sincere prayers, it
has come, with all it's richness of blessing.
What an unspeakable mercy are these
timely rains. How they water the parched
earth, revive dropping vegetation, cool the
atmosphere, and cheer the heart of man.
In the beautiful language of Scripture,
"They drop upon the pastures of the will
derness, and the little hills rejoice on every
side. The pastures are clothed with flocks,
the valleys are covered over with corn
they shout for joy, they also sing J" And
yet how little thanksgiving they call forth
from ungrateful man. If some rare genius
after long application, should invent machi-
merry to water single acre, his name would
be lauded throughout the length and breadth
of the land. And yet our kind Father in
Heaven waters millions of acres in single
hour, and there is only here and there a re-
sponse of heartfelt gratitude going up to
Heaven. | knew good Christian man who
always sang the doxology when it COM
menced raining after a drought. How ap-
rropriate that we should thus honor the
Great Giver of all good. And could He
see the increase of gratitude going up from
thousands of hearts, there can be no doubt
but it would insure a continuation of these
great mercies. May heaven inspire, and
then accept our praise. T.

FRANCE-wHAT NEXTq

With the collapse of the Communist re-
olt, the question of future government
for France comes again to the front. While
Paris was being bombarded and the horrible
scenes of civil war being enacted every
thing aside from the desperate struggle was
held in obeyance. At least if anything was
done it was in the way of intrigue Or pre-
paration for future developments.
We expressed in this journal soon after
the ignominous defeat and surrender of
Napoleon III, an opinion that matters
were taking shape in favor of a restora-
ton OF the Orleans princes to the throne.
The so-called Republic received power at
time when the pressure of events was sure
to bring upon it the odium of defeat, to be
followed by humilating conditions of peace.
The Provisional Government, organized
through the Assembly, was met at the out
set by rebellion in Paris, and it would seem
that no other alternative remained but to
recall and establish upon tho throne a sue
cessor of the old monarchy. Various cir
cumstances make this quite probable
measure. The Count de Chambord repre-
scnts the Bourbon line, and it is said that
an understanding is reached by which the
Orleanists will support his claim to the
throne. AS he has no heir they will follow
in the succession and Bourbon and Orleans
interests be harmonized. The Duke d. 'Au-
male and the Prince de Joinville are said to
be men of character, who command respect
aside from them both and this will lead
many in the crisis to consider their claims
favorab!y. The most significant part is the
vote i'll the Assembly of 464 to 103 to remove
the prescription against the Orleans princos
and give them their seats in the Assembly
great deal was said about their pledges,
etc, but the vote was an absolute and un-
qualified one. They resigned their seats in
the Assembly but the moral influence of the
vote received was immense. Theirs pro-
fesses to exact conditions and to rather
demonstratively protest against their seeking
to take possession Of the throne. He prob
ably answers two purposes by doing this.
He removes the suspicion which would be
rather natural from his record, of being
himself at the head of an intrigue in their
interest, and insinuates the existence of a
powerful popular sentiment in their behalf.
We have not been able to resist the convic-
ton that Thiers was shaping matters in this
direction, and unless Mcmahon and Empe-
ror William and the Catholic influence con-
clude to try Napoleon again it looks as
though he might succeed. But speculation
on the political future of France is after all
about the most uncertain that can be in
dulged in.

thirds of the stockholders is necessary to

1t will be. The question is grave and mo-
mentous one, but the clear, good sense of
these gentlemen, although, just now. their
opinions range themselves on different sides,
will no doubt in the end choose the course
which will be most advantageous to the gen
eral interests both of the stockholders inter
ested and the State of which we are Justly

rAlRTON, June lGtn, 1871.
Mr.. ED1roR.-tt seems you were misin-
formed in regard to the particulars of the
death of Rev. B. G. Lippincott's son, as
published in the PIONEER last week. The
circumstances of his death, as we were in
formed by the family are these Frederic,
son of Rev. B. c. Lippincott, of Cedarville,
aged eight years, died on Tuesday morning,
the 9Th inst, after an illness of two days.
The affection seems to have been sudden
development of severe and singular dis
ease of the spine, causing rigidity of the
muscles of the back and limbs He had in
deed been in to bathe on Saturday evening,
by his fathers permission, and it was feared
at first that this might have been the cause
of the affliction, but the attending physi-
clan gave it as his opinion that the bathing
could have been attended with no such re-
suits. His sufferings were severe, and the
whole case calls for and receives the sympa
thy of the entire community. S.
