LECTURE.-Rev. A. ID. Willifer, of this city,
lectured at Lyceum Hail. last evening, to n
very fair audience, on ''What | Saw in Eu-

and instructive, and we judge, pleased the
audience.
Mr.. Willifer will deliver a second lecture on
the same subject, at Lyceum Hall, on next
Monday evening, in which he will describe
what he saw in Rome, Venice Milan, Florence
and Switzerland, including descriptions of AL
pine climbing, and the Great St. Bernard, etc.

thinks, will be more interesting than those of
the first lecture. Tickets % cents. Lecture

from long distances to spend day on the
grounds. tsg
On Sunday week, the colored people held a
meeting there which combined the religious
and financial in about equal degrees, the
profits being for the benefit of the A. NJ. E.
Church, of New Hope. On Sunday the turn
out was very great, there being about twenty
five hundred people ON the grounds. The gate
money alone, for the admission of this number,
yielded a very nice income, The monkey, the
buffalo, the deer and the elk divided the in
terest with the speaking, the people apparent
ly canning for pleasure rather than for religious

The Park is already very attractive place,
but may be greatly improved by cutting out a
portion of the underbrush and giving the
young trees chance to grow.
There are now in the Park, nine deer, two
elk and one buffalo, and we are told that a
number of deer, of different species, are to
be added soon.

STRAIGHT-OUT.-We have heard it init
mated that there is some talk, on the part of
certain Republicans, of nominating an indie
pendent Democrat for Assembly in this Dis
trict. We can see no good reason for this.
If the Democratic party in caucus, by a fair
majority of their voters, nominate a man
morally or mentally unfit to represent the
District, we can see no reason why Republi-
cans should help them out of the difficulty by
aiding them to elect respectable independent
Democratic candidate. Let the Republicans
nominate an upright, intelligent man of their
own party, and if there are Democrats whose
sense of right will not allow them to vote for
a bad nominee, they have their remedy by
voting for the Republican candidate The
election of a Republican would teach the other
party a lesson in making proper nominations
which would make a far more lasting impress
sion ON them than would the election of an in
dependent Democratic candidate.
The plan of splitting up the Democratic
party by voting for independent candidates of
the. same faith, has failed too often in this
county to warrant another attempt.

RroT NEAR PATTENBURe, IN THIS County,
A FIGHT BETWEEN IRrsH AND NEGRO LA
BoRERs-THREE. NEGROES KII.LEp.-We
learn from member of the Board of Chosen
Freeholders who resides in the upper part of
the county, that riot took place ON last
Saturday at the tunnel, which is being cut
through Jugtown mountain near Pattenburg,
for the new Packer road to Amboy. 1t
appears that large gangs of negro and Irish
laborers are at work there, (not together how
ever, and that there has been for long time
very bitter feeling existing between them,
which has resulted in serious brawls. Re-
Gently the Irish laborers, while under the in
fiuence of liquor, attacked the negroes. A
day or two after that, the dead body of an
Irishman was found in the woods in the Vi
entity of the fight. His death was charged
to the negroes, whether justly or unjustly, is
not known; and revenge was sworn against
Them On Saturday night under whiskey in
huences, grand attack was made upon the
negro quarters, two OF three boarding houses
were burned down, and the negroes pursued
three or four miles. Their assailants were
armed with guns and other weapons. Three
negroes were killed in the fight and large
number wounded. One of them took refuge
under the porch of house and was there shot.
The negroes found that section too hot for
them and beat hasty retreat. Many of them
reached various points on the B. d. r. r. ON
Sunday, and half car load passed this city
ON the early morning line on Monday morning,
bound for the South, from whence they were
brought by a contractor.
An inquest was held on Sunday, but our
informant did not learn the result and so far
as he knew no arrests had been made.

has had such large number of applications
for recipes that it has become quite a task
to write them. 1t is therefore offered to the

When the War Department
of fhe United Stages first pro-
jected Il system nf storm sig
mails and weather reports, there
were many who sincerely be-
lieyed that the scheme was
chilnerical, and coaltl produce
no practical results. Time,
however, has demonstrated
the utility of the system, and
now the mercantile and farm

that they could not well do

in understanding the great
value to river commerce of a
system Of river reports, made
up from observations at all the
chief river ports of the West.
Measures were accordingly
taken early in the last season
to induce the chief of the sig
nal service of the United
States to create stations for
regular daily observations at
the chief river ports, to he
furnished in connection with
the regular dail.I weather bulie-
tins. Into this prnject the
officer in charge of the Saint
Louis station entered with zeal
and energy, and it was ORDER

rise and fall of rivers should be
forwarded every AFTERNOON from
Fort Benton, Omaha, Deaven-
worth, st. Paul, Davenport,
Keokuk, Cairo, Louisville, CiH-
cinuati, Pittsburg, Nashville,
Memphis, Vicksburg, New Or
leans and Shreveport, on and
after the first day of January,

reports has been commenced

will be practically tested. We
