city will invariably ind IN the Ball House
either as a commercial or family hotel-every-
thing to be desired in the interests Of comfort
and attention while temporarily absent from
that sacred sanctuary immortalized as
"Home, sweet home"
There will also be found, located behind the
hotel, on Birchard Avenue, first-class
LIVERY, FEED & SALE STABLES,
run in connection with the above house,
though virtually the exclusive property OF
MEssRs. CoNKLIN & MINELER. With COM
mendable spirit OF enterprise, the firm have
spared neither pains or expense in establish
ing livery accommodations on scale becom-
ing the extensive resources Of the hotel. With
firstclaSs steeds-adapted to saddle or harness,
single or double driving-steady and of the
choicest stock. Their rcarriages-oonsist1ng of
open and closed buggies, &c, Sc, will be
found all nearly new and admirably adapted
to travelling on the roads around this district
most Of them being upholstered and pre-
senting style of finish such as it is rare to
meet with out of the largest cities. Both Mr..
Conklin and Mr.. Minkler are thoroughly con-
versant with their business-courteou and
attentive-always keeping bountiful garner
for the entertainment of good stock consigned
temporarily to their custody. Their hostler,
Geo. Bizler is c capital boy-knows every
place and almost every body in this entire sec-
tion-he's steady and possesses every quality
characteristic OF competent coachman and
reliable hostler. The stables are Of modern
construction, thoroughly ventilated, kept
clean and tidy and afford ample accommoda-
ton. This is, indeed, one OF the finest stables
in the county, and gentlemen once patronizing
it never require an invitation to "come again"

Another attractive feature of no inconsider-
able interest in conjunction with this masnif-
cent block is tho comprehensive and replote
millinery establishment of Mrs. F. A. Barn
ard, lady whose name will be recognized as
associated with our city for many years-her
late fatLer-Amos E. Wood, Esq,-hsving at
tanned the popular distinction OF representa-

consequent early associations we need hardly
observe that her superior taste and acquaint-
ance with society secure for her the leading
patronage of the elite of our city and environs.
Mrs. BIS stock will invariably be found of the
highest order, effective in display, and COM
pretending the choicest novelties found in
fashionable circles-both in trimmed hats,
bonnets, &c, as also every detail in materials
for making up and adorning the most stylish
goods. Ladies visiting our city-those resid-
ing among us-and others from neighboring
districts will invariably discover that even the
large and more pOrtentious establishments in
large cities are in no respect capable of afford
ing greater satisfaction-either in style, ma
terial or prics-than is submitted to their
patronage at this excellent and established
store. Call and see for yourselves.

believes and persists in declaring that this earth is
not round or SPHERICAL but fiat as ''slap-lack,
and does not turn over, otherwise the water would
all be spilled out of Deacon Bsscom's mill pond.
But astronomical science has positively demon

supposing the earth to be fat and stationary, and
medical science is daily proving the fact that he Is

DUEL WITH PISTOLS IN NEW JERSEY

Harvey Newell and William Sanders of
Freehold, N. j., having become involved in
rivalry about young lady, the result was
that Sanders sent challenge to mortal COM
bat to Newell. The def" was accepted. The
New York Times says
"Mr +. l.. Cowart acted as the second of
Newell, and Robert +. Stockton for Sanders.
The hour was nine o'clock on last Thursday
evening, and the place the grounds of the
Freehold base ball club Promptly at the
hour principals and seconds were on hand,
and some half hundred spectators. Mr..
Stockton measured off fifteen PAGES with the
GOODNESS of old Commodore Stockton himself
and then stepping back, called out in clear,
ringing voice, "one-two-tbree The last
word was scarcely uttered when the two pis-
tolls were fired simultaneously, and Sanders
| fell. His second ran to him, tore open his
coat, and called ont, Run for a surgeon,
auickr' The terrified Newell threw down his
pistol and ran--but not for physician He
| feaped down the embankment and made his
way home, where he remained until the next
day, when to his inexprsssible relief he heard
that his antagonist, Sanders, was not dead, in
fact was not hurt at ALL. The truth of it was
that the seconds, Messrs. Stockton and Cow
art took particular care to load the pistols
with blank cartridges, letting Sanders into
the secret, whose sudden fall was arranged
beforehand The whole thing, although a
dead earnest affair to one, was the hugest
kind of a Joke to all else, and has created
more amusement in Freehold than anything
of the kind that has occurred for years"

nothing stronger than wine and bser, and smong
all that vast mass; outnumbering the population
Of the United States five times, there is less
drunkenness, and fewer arrests made on charges
Of "drunk and disorderly," than in the single
city Of Chicago, which contains not one Eve

A JUST REBUKE.-The Legislative COM
mittee appointed 10 investigate the bad man
agement of the National Savings Bank at
Concord, N. H., did not make up their report
In whitewashing Mood. They charge the
principal blame Of the cashiers defalcation on
the trustees Of tie bank, where it belongs.
These persons were dummies, or men of straw,
50 shamelessly Indifferent to their duties that,
according to the drift Of the evidence, they
made no examination whatever into the books
OF the cheating cashier. Had they given an
| intelligent glance at the books any time in the
| past five years, they would have found some
thing wrong; and could have prevented the
great fraud committee, 1t is wonderful, in
deed, that knavish cashier, having such a
worthless board above him, should not have
robbed the bank of its last dollar. As a fact,
| the bank is declared to be solvent. But for
I that, no thanks are due to the trustees.
