What with the Fair, Court, Festival

w nat with the Fair, Court, Festivals,
ETC., ETC., the streets of our usually quiet
borough this week present scene ofbustle and
confusion, and our hotel keepers. we opine,
are reaping rich harvest. There appears
to be two factions of the Lutheran denonln-
alton in this borough at the present time,
and the heading of the posters announcing
the festivals now being held, which are pos
ted in every conspicuous place, only verify
the above statement, as one is announced as
the Original Fair and Festival, and is
now In progress in the basement of the new
Lutheran church, while the other, and the
one which appears to be the most popular of
the two, is known as the Ladies' Fair and
Festival, " and is now in progress in the base
ment of the Phoenix engine house. The
proceeds of both festivals, however, are to
be devoted to the same cause-for the bone
fit of the Lutheran congregation we
hope their labors may be literally rewarded

Grapes.-Mr Simeon Schoonover, of

The clusters were exceedingly large, while
the grapes were of the most delicious favor.

this year has never been excclled, either in
quantity or quality, which fact, it appears, is
verified all over the country. Our thanks
are hereby returned to Mr.. Schoonover for

Shocking Barbarity in DutcheSs Coun-
ty-A Little Boy Starved to Death.

A horrible tale comes to us from Storm
vile, Dutchess county, about, the starv-
ing to death of little boy seven years
old by French woman, or rather brute,
who travels and performs in O'Brieu' S
Menagerie' While stopping at Storm
vile this woman tied the little boys
hands behind his back and shut him up
in room alone. He begged the cook Of
the hotel to put ladder up to the win
dow and give him piece of bread and
butter. She had to throw it on the floor,
where the obtained it and ate it up. This
woman had another boy, which was her
own. He went and told the woman of
the above manner of getting the food to
him. She appeared very angry, and 60
ing to the boys room said, "she would
not be surprised if he had asked for some
candy or cake, but the idea of asking for
bread and butter How dare you do so
when | told you you did would pound
you" The little fellow begged her not
to whip him, he would not do it again.
He did not look as though he had a
drop of blood in his body. The reason
she starved him was to prevent his grow.
ing any heavier. The women during her
performance in the show, takes a six
FOUNDER on her shoulder, and the boy
gets up and fires it off. She bought him
in Paris for one hundred, dollars and of
course she had no love or feeling for him
except to make money. The doctor who
attended him said he died Of starvation.

Republicans see that you are registered
on or before the 30th of this month.

Full returns from California confirm
the previously received election news.
The Republican majority for Governor is
about $500. The Republicans have
elected all three of the members of Con.
gress--a clear gain of two. The State
Senate is so divided, by members holding
over, that the Lieutenant Governor will
control it by his casting vote in favor Of
the Republicans. The House of Represeu
tiyes is largely Republican, so that there
is 20 doubt about the next United States
Senator The victory in the Golden
State is therefore as complete as could
possibly have been gained.

The broken down finances which the De-
mocracy handed over to the Republicans
eleven years ago, were speedily established
on firm and prosperous basis, and which Is
now leading to speedy liquidation of all
our war Indebtedness. A party which has
done SO well, both in war and in peace is
not likely to be traded off by the people
for party which robbed the national
Treasury, and fostered and established the
rebellion.
