Democratic politicians were ELY
intervened.
We have been rushed heretofore
rather beyond our capacity in the
line Of job work, but we have just
got on a Eew hand, and are now pre-
pared to dc all that may come in with
neatness and dispatch.
We wish to call the attention of
our readers to the advertisement Of J.
@. Hull, with the big piano in it. Mr..
Hull has an agent, Mr.. Minton look
ing over this part of his territory, and
will probably pick up a good trade
here. Mr.. Minton will be in town un-
til tomorrow morning, and will prob
ably visit us frequently.
-Spearing fish by torchlight is the
latest and best sport INDUCED in by
our young men and boys. Quite a
number Of large ones have been
speared recently. The water is lew
and clear, and the fish are plenty. Mr..
Porter, of Clarington, also tells us
that there are mere fish caught in the
Clarion River this year than any pre-
vious season for some years.
Licences have been granted to all
who applied in our county, remon-
strances, containing the names Of
many of our best citizens having been
set aside, and no more attention paid
them, than if they had been so much
blank paper. Oh for the Local Op.
ton law. We can then know whether
or not this liquor traffic is approved
by the majority of our voters. We
are willing to leave the result to them

the wagon and blacksmith shop of w
