There are few Democrats who do not
know that Alvah A Clark's nomination for
Congress was obtained by unfair means, and
that Rhynear Veghte, Esq, was the choice of
the best men Of the party. That Clark is ut
terly unfit for the position cannot we'll be de-
MED. Let every Republican vote for veghte.
The Hunte1don Democrat makes great
ado about the cutting down of Democratic
pole at Kimball's Station on Monday night of
last week and charges that it was done by Re-
spahlicans. and calls some very hard names.
The East Amwel Republican Club, while
paradlng in Pennington. the same night, was
stoned, but the Democrat dosen't say&any-
thing about that. Both acts alike deserve
censure.
Mr. Pdcock boosted three years ago that
he carried Hunterdon County in his pocket
By the way his friends spent money at
the recent caucus, we judge that be is still
of the opinion that the mass are purchasabls.
IAN enthusiastic Republican meeting was
held at Ringoes on last Thursday evening.
A very fine torch-light parade of about one
hundred persons, handsomely uniformed,
took place before the meeting. The atten-
danee,was so great that the meeting was COM
PEELED to adjourn from the hall to the street.
DIR. J. Hayhurst and Mr.. James Mullineaux,
of this city, spoke. Their addresses were
good and held the close attention of the au-
dience. The Riugoes Republicans are wide
awake and will poll full vote in November.

Tea Drinking.

The Food and Fuel Reformer, an
English paper, says
cit is on women that the evils OF
tea drinking fall with the greatest
weight. How many women, who
think they cannot get along single
day without tea, owe to it their cold
feet and hands, their liability to pecu-
liar difficulties, especially their weak
ening ones, and their habitual loss OF
appetite, rendering them prey to
dinner pills. or the absurbities termed
Strengthening medicines so long in
vogue. No wonder that tea-drinkers
are so frequently small eaters, when
their tea has gradually destroyed their
appetite! But perhaps the worse use
to which tea is applied by women is
the practice of drinking copiously of
strong tea during pregnancy, with the
idea that it will render their milk more
abundant. A most unfounded, absurd
and disastrous practice. 1t is alike
injurious to the mother and her off
spring; and may originate the hered-
itary diseases of successive genera
tions far beyond the third and fourth.
According to DR.. William Alcott, one
cause of scrofulous constitution by
inheritance, is TO be found in the use
of tea by ancestors, and he reasons
out the matter on sound physiological
principles, observing that whatever
weakens the nerves-especially those
of the stomach-in mother, is always
sure to entail tendency to disease in
her offspring, will not unfrequently
prove to be scrofula, or that dismal
and universal Observation-Disclosures
consumption. There is also reason
to infer that much of our modern eye
disease and ear disease is caused by
the tea drinking habit of our popula-
ton. The hearing is affected, at
least indirectly by colds-so much
more common than among our fore
fathers before the introduction of tea
This is an absolute necessity; and il
cannot be explained by any change of
the climate for the worse; anyhow,
the fact is certain, and it is equally
certain that the sudden heating pro-
duced by tea, as rapidly followed by
refrigeration or chill, can not fail to
be perpetual cause of the affection
in question-so often the precursor of
consumption.

A FARMERS DAUGHTER. The At
lantic papers sometimes tell as of q
farmers daughter who raked hay
with horse or drove a moving ma
chine but we think that California
can boast of as noble girl as any of
them. A French girl, Is years OF
ago, has hauled cerd-wood, two trips
a day, FIVE miles, averaging a cord
and three quarters TO load, over q
rocky and mountainous road, with
four horses, nearly every day the
past summer. She is usually the
first on the road in the morning, and
frequently the last one at night.
She sits high up on her spring seat,
with her whip and four lines in her
hands. and her foot on the brake,
managing her team with as much
ease as any man. Her voice and ap-
pearance are entirely feminine, and
she is medium size. She is always
accompanied by her father, who lifts
the heavy sticks, but can neither
drive team nor speak much Eng
lish. Her well-fitting dark calico
dress, her calfskin laced boots, her
black. broad-brimmed palm-leaf hat,
and her long buckskin gloves, all
seem to be well selected and fitted
to her business. Her brown hair
hangs in two neat braids over her
shoulders. She is usually more or
less dusty, but it can be seen that it
is only the dust of that day. When
she passes through the street she
turns her eyes neither to the right
nor 10 the left, and seldom speaks to
any one unless she is spoken to or
has business with them. Sacramento

Less Drunkenness.

In spite Of statistics there is prob.
ably less drunkenness in the United
States to-day than there has ever
been before. There are more who
never touch liquor, and probably
more who never drink to excess,
than at any previous time. OF what
habits of this kind there used to be,
so or 60 years ago, we get somo re-
miniscences from the Rev. DIR. Good
ell, for long time missionary to
the Persians, and who has given some
Interesting sketches of early New
England. In his boy days ''punch,
egg,nog, and mixture OF molssses
and rum, called black strap, flowed
as easily through the sweet wales of
New England as pure cold water
does now" He particularly remem-
bers conc good old man" who invited
his father to talk with him about the
millennium, and those "devoted
missionaries who had taken their
lives in their hands and gone to the
desolated regions of Ohio to preach
to those benighted people," At the
end of their talk a mug of toddy or
a flip was made, and the sugar in the
bottom of the tumbler distributed to
the children. In his fathers absence
Dung Goodell once made it 80 strong
that the guest couldn't drink it all
and the children finished it, with the
result OF laying them out" This
was his first and last experience as q
bartender. 10 those days, he adds,
''every body drank, old and young,
rich and poor, male and female, and
our whole country seemed rapidly
descending on the steep and slippery
side of the hill toward ruin"

Mother Symptoms Prophecy.

Every now and then, for these 400
years and more, says the Springfield
Republican, some one has brought to
light the prophecy and memory OF
Mother Shipton. AS event follows
event in mechanical progress, her
doggerel verses fall in SO pat that
they must needs be quoted. One OF
the predictions thereof-'Fire and
water shall wonders do"-has come
to pass time and again. This Mother
Shipton was one who would have TAX
en- high rank as a medium in our day:
in hers, in the fifteenth century, she
was said to have been begotten, like
the wizard Merlin, of the phantasm Of
Apollo, or some aerial demon under
that guise, and a beautiful orphan
Yorkshire girl, named Agatha She
had the wierd, lonely girlhood that
the child of shame is apt to have,
avoided and prosecuted by those who
should have been her mates she was
christened Ursula by the abbot OF
! Beverly. and grew up so eccentric
and annatually shrewd that by and by
this natural tradition, in those super
stitious days, grew about her birth.
She prophesied as she grew older,
and even "persons of quality" consult
ed her. She even told the great
Wolsey that he should never reach
York, and, indeed. when he was with
in eight miles of it, he was arrested
| by Northumberland at King Henry's
order, and brought to Leicester,
where he died. Also she is said to
have foretold the great fire of London,
the execution of Charles l., and many
notable events besides the Reforma-
ton, ana of the reigns of Elizabeth
and James. At the age of 70 she
foretold her death, and at the hour
predicted she died. Her name is a
popular tradition in Yorkshire even
today, and the tradition is founded in
part upon fact. Her famous proph-
ecy was said to have been published
in her lifetime, and again 200 years
| ago; it was certainly published 40
years ago, for we have seen it in a
book of that time, where it was said
to have been copied from an older
book. Though most of the items are
vague enough, some show a marked
coincidence with remarkable events,
such as the invention of steam, railway
locomotives and tunnels, the telegraph,
iron clads, and the admission of Jews
into parliamen. lin 1859. Without
further preface, these are the famous
lines -
Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with woe.
Around the world thoughts shall fly
In the twinkling of an eye
Water shall yet more wonders do,
Now strange. bat yet they shall be trde
The world upside down shall be.
And gold be found at the root of tree.
Through hills man shall ride,
And horse ass be at his side;
Under water shall walk
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk
In the air shall men be
In white in black, and green;
Iron in the water shall float,
Gold shall be found and shown
In land that's not now known;
Fire aud water shalt wonders do
England shall at last admit Jew
The world to end shall come
In eighteen hundred eighty-one.
