ing, jailor at New Castle, met with an accden'
which came unpleasantly near proving Of a seri
Gus, if not fatal character. Finding one Of the
lights in the Jail yard extiuguished he went out
to rehght Ii, aud in STOPPING down to pick NJ
something which dropped from his hand his TO
volver dropped from his coat pocket As the
weapon struck the ground one OF the barrels dis
charged, and the bel Leatly took of good sized
piece Of Mr.. Winnings thumb. The same ball also
passed upward aud through the rim OF his hat,
Just grazing his head. The wounded thumb is moi
very serious, but the ball certainly made a very
close shave.

The FIRsT SNOW OF THE Sra SON The first
snow of the se9son came last night, and came with
a vengeance too. Following ths dreary storm OF
the afternoon, the wind howled ferr7iy through
out the live long night, driving showers of ram,
sleet and snow down to the earth below, rendes ing
it such &c ,dedly unpleasant weather, that
the streets were soon almost entirely deserted Tie
storm continued in all its violence until the dawn
of day, when 1t subsided, though the sky coDtiu
ued TO be covered with dull, storm-ke clouds,
through which the sun, in vain, essayed TO shine.
until far into the day. In tbs afternoon, rain
again commenced TO fall.

The Democratic party has always
been the foe of special privileges. 1t
is, therefore, an anti monopoly party.
1t necessarily agrees with the farmers
in the position which they have taken
in regard to the tariffs, railroads, aud
so forth. There is no reason why
the two organizations should not CO.
operate, or rather, why the Democrats
should not back up the farmers ia their
movement. In doing so they make
no sacrifice of the essential principles
of their organization. On the contra
ry they will give them success. What
is wanted is the attainment of certain
ends. The manner or form in which
it is done, provided it Is not opposed
TO public policy, is unimportant.
Every effort, therefore, shou be made
to effect a cordial union between the
Democrats and farmers Oranges. Con-
tending for principles, as we do, the
mere selection of candidate to carry
them out is a secondary consideration.
