CONCLUSION.
81 WHIPPED fN.o

Congressman Bird, of this District, we no
tice, is addressing Greeley meetings in this
county. His stand against the nomination of
Horace is too fresh in the public mind, we
should suppose, to allow him much freedom of
flight i'll Greeley speech. Mr.. Bird made
himself quite conspicuous few months ago
by writing to the New York World and other
papers denouncing the proposed nomination
of Greeley by the Democracy, demonstrating
quite conclusiyely, that the party would stul-
tify It's, If y ado. ting him it's candidate.
We are under the impression that he declared
that he would not support him, if nominated.
Just before the Baltimore Convention he wrote
a letter to Greeley, which was published in
the Hustsrdon Democrat, questioning him in
relation 10 certain obnoxious articles which
appeared Ia the Tribune. So far as we are
aware Mr.. Greeley did not notice his letter,
He may not have heard of the letter-possibly
he may not have heard of Mr.. Bind. At any
rate, Mr.. Bird objections did not prevent the
nomination of Mr. Greeley at Baltimore, and
neither has Mr.. Birds objections prevented
Mr.. Bird from advocating Mr.. Greeley since
his nomination. He has demonstrated his
capacity to "eat crow" although he may not
"hanker AFTER it." But II the noble eagle
will sometimes eat carrion. why silonid It be
thought strange that smaller birds are some
times compelled to swallow distasfcfui food.
Anything to beat Grant,

GB- During the North Carolina canvass,
Zebulon b. Vance, for whose amnesty Gree
ley was SO solicitous that he had to use his
case "to point the moral and adorn the tale
of one of his useless electioneering letters,
gave this indication of how much unrepentant
rebels "worried down" the nomination of the
Sage of Chappaqua: sit is hard for us who
have been extreme war men, who have lost
property and almost all we hold dear for prin-
ciple, to now sacrifice principle and accept
Horace Greeley for our candidate, but we
must do it" (Some one shouted, ave can't
doit"O Vance replied: "We must see here,
gentlemen; sometimes we're dry and we can't
get good liquor. We must have a drink.
Don't you take poor whiskey if you can't get
anything else? OF course we take the poor.
We take and mix it, a little whiskey, little
water plenty of sugar, stir it all up, drink it,
and damn it. So in this we can do no better.
We viii take little Greeley, and mix some
of the issues we all love, vote the ticket, but
curse Greeley

HORRIBLE AND MYSTERIOUS MUIR
DER.

Last week we published brief account of
the finding of the body of an unknown man
in the Delaware, near Bristol. We are now
informed that the body was first seen floating
down the river by John McCorkle, an en-
ploye of Nathan Hellings' fruit establishment,
above Bristol. He followed it down the
stream until opposite the wharf of d. Lam
dreth u Son, at BloOmsdale, when the body
was brought to the shore. 1t presented a hor-
rible appearance, clearly indicating that most
brutal murder had been committed. The
body had been wrapped in an army blanket
before throwing it into the water. This had
become somewhat loosened, but still adhered
to it and fioated along with the body. Around
the neck was suspended stone weighing
about fifteen pounds. This was tied up in a
towel, and fastened around the neck by means
of a handkerchief On examination it was
found that the mans throat had been cut from
ear to ear in a frightful manner The right
jaw bone was also broken and there were other
severe wounds about the face, which looked
as if they had been inflicted with an axe or
hatchet. The deceased was apparently about
thirty-five years old, rather stout and well
formed and about five feet seven inches in
height He had dark and rather coarse hair
and moustache; the rest of his face was
closely shaven. His clothing consisted of a
black cloth sack coat, black pantaloons, and
white drawers and undershirt. There was a
carpet slipper on the right foot. In one of
The pockets were found knife and an old
fashioned leather purse, with clasp, contain
ing eighteen cents in money. The apparel of
the deceased was eleanly in its appearance,
and the countenance was indicative of intelli-
gence. The man, from the condition of his
muscles and the appearance of his hands, had
not been accustomed to much manual labor
Nothing whatever was found about the de-
ceased to give any information as to his iden-
tity. The Coroner's investigation failed to
throw any light upon the mysterious affair
The remains were viewed by great many
people in Bristol and vicinity, but no one
could identify them. All agreed that ter
rible crime had been committed, but who was
the stranger that had been thus murdered,
possibly far from his home, the motive that
prompted and circumstances attending the
dark deed, as well as it's perpetrator, are vet
and possibly may forever remain mystery.
We have not learned that any official notice
has been taken of the affair by the authori-
of the Coroner already mentioned. The body
was buried by order of that officer.-Bucks
County Intelligencer.

uNsrGHr1Y ENSIGN,

To us the American flag has always seemed
beautiful, and to every loyal man the sight of
the Red, White and Blue causes a thrill Of
patriotic love and pride; but upon the New
York World no such effect is produccd--rather
the opposite. Abiding to the celebrated order
of General Dix" If any man attempt to haul
down the American fiag, shoot him ON the
spot THAT paper says:
Whether q man deserves to be shot either
ION the spot or elsewhere for hauling down
that unsightly ensign we shall not discuss
A red flag is no more irritating to mad
bull than the ''Stars and Stripes" are to a
genuine copperhead.

~ During the political campaign of 1868,
Governor Palmer, of Illinois, made a speech
at Pana, and, at the conclusion of his argu-
ments, an inebriated Democrat yelled out to
him: "Who went jeff Davis bail?" sob, u
poor old fool in New York, who hadn't child
or chick in the army" was Palmer's very
sensible reply. And now Palmer is endeavor-
ing to make the people believe that the ''poor
old fool" would make good President.

According to its table, Greeley will have 1S
electoral votes more than are necessary to a
choice, 1870 being that number. Now Grant
is as sure Of Ohio as of Vermont, and by tax
ing that State from the list it defeats Greeley
and elects Grant. Grant will, without doubt,
also carry Illinois, and, in all probability, In
diana and Pennsylvania.

INTRODUCTORY.


We herewith present to the people of Hun
terdon and adjoining counties new claimant
for their patronage-TuE LAMBERTvILLE
RECORD.
REASONS FOR ITS ESTABLISHMENT
For some time, numbers of our citizens have
felt that the growing Importance of Lambert
vile would justify the establishment of a
second newspaper, and that it would be an
important aid in advancing the financial, in
tellectual and moral well-being of the city and
surrounding country. Added to this, many
Republicans of this county deemed that the
interests of their party would be subserved by
a live party paper published in the leading
town of the county, and promised hearty CO.
operation in the undertaking. The agitation
of these two Independently expressed wants
has eliminated in the establishment of this
paper.
ITS POLITICS.
THE RECORD will be Republican in politics,
and will support the standard bearers of the
party-GRANr AND WIIsoN-in the present
campaign. Believing that the best interests
of the country-poltical financial and moral
will be advanced by the success of that party,
it shall receive its hearty assistance in all
proper efforts TO attain that result. THE
RECORD does not purpose, however, to be a
blind follower of party, wherever it may lead
or whatever it may do 1t will act, rather, on
the principle that right is greater than party
interests and truth more important than party
names. Happily, the great principles of the
Republican party of to-day are the embodiment
of truth and right, and to them THE RECORD
can justly give a warm sympathy and an
earnest advocacy.
MORAL REFORMS.
This is an era of the agitation of great
moral questions and THE RECORD does not
purpose to be behind the times, or to play the
neutral in the contest. On the battlefield
between good and evil, he who assumes neu-
trality is an abettor Of the latter. There can
be no neutrality in this war. THE RECORD
will therefore give its influence and assistance
to all efforts having for their objects the pre-
vention Of vice and wrong and the elevation
of humanity
LOCAL INTERESTS.
THE RECORD will give special attention to
local affairs, and will endeavor to aid In the
advancement, not only of Lambertville, but of
the surrounding towns and neighborhoods.
This section of country has unusual facilities
for becoming great manufacturing centre,
and as far as it is able it will endeayor to
make known these advantages.
GENERAL READING.
We shall endeavor from week to week to
give the choicest literary selections, together
with occasional original contributions. Our
aim shall be to instruct as well as amuse, while
publishing nothing that may offend the most
refined mind.
CONCLUSION.
With these brief statements of its principles
purposes and plans, we open THE RECORD, to
enstamp upon its pages the statements of pass
ing events-the records of joy and of sorrow,
of prosperity and of adversely, of life and of
deatl,--of all things, in fact, that go to make
up the public history of these lives of ours.
That we may win the approval and merit the
patronage of the public, is our earnest wish.
