Rev. Geo. Young, of Sandy Ridge, has ac-
cepted a call to Point Pleasant Pa, where he
will remove in April. s
On one-third of the days in January it either
sllowered, showed or stornied in some style.

Many ask the question, "What is meant by
the now popular term Credit Mobilier?"
Literally, briefly, but comprehensively, it
means large pawnbroking establishment,
or, rather, an incorporated association of
persons to do pawnbroking business The
definition of the term is, strictly, personal
credit, and when applied to company means
one which invests capital in personal property
as distinguished from credit foncier, where
the investment is in land.

GEE Among other presents received by Rev.
Israel Poulson, at his recent donation visit,
was an interesting little matter of two hundred
and eleven dollars-all in charming green
backs. They are, you know, very handy
thing to have in ones pocket, and as ministers,
like local editors, seldom have so many OF
them at one time, the happiness of Mr.. Poul-
son, as he clutched them in his hand, must
have been overwhelming. If we were to be
given eleven dollars without the two hundred,
we believe it would take our breath. But as
there is no probability of such an event we
breathe as freely as you please.-Huaterdon

Ss|~ We are informed that the recent Teach
ers' Institute at New Hope has had the effect
of stirring up an increased interest i'll educa-
tional matters, and that its influence is even
seen in more regular and punctual attend
ance of scholars.
The various institutes recently held by
County Superintendent Eastburn in Bucks
county have been of unusual interest, and
were in each case productive of the best re-
suits. Mr.. Eastbun is deserving of the
thanks of the people of that county for the
energy and ability with which he discharges
the duties of his office.

down to breakfast this morning in good spirits.
While engaged in assisting his little son his

Mr.. EDITOR :---SIR--On Feb. 5th, there was
grand Sunday School exhibition in the
Kingwood NJ. L. Church, which passed of
very satisfactorily. There was a very large
attendance and very good order with the ex-
ception Of two young men, who, seated with
their girls by their side, showed their smart
ness by annoying a lady who sat near them.
If such young men do not know how to be-
have when they go to such places, they had
better stay at home until their parents teach
them how to behave when from home.

popularity about our Jersey people, and there

between our people and those of the other side

FIRE.--About IL O'Clock, Saturday evening,
the barn of George Bangchoff, on the Rock
road, in this city, was discovered to be on fire.
An alarm was given, but as no light could be
seen, most persons supposed it to be false
one. The Hibernia engine was promptly
flames before they had done any serious dam
age. The fire, it is believed, was the work Of
an incendiary.
