The blasting Of the rock which OBJ"
structed Hell Gate was successfully ac-
compllshed Sunday afternoon. There
was scarcely any report or concussion,
and no agitation Of the river except
Just above the spot where the explosion
took place. Here a line of whitened
water, about 800 yards in length, up
rose to height of three or four feet,
and after remaining stationary for mo-
ment, spurted up TO height of about
twelve feet, in dark yellowish masses,
mixed with the smoke Of the dynamite,
and then, in another moment, the
stream was still. Not trag ment Of
rock was thrown up, and not a pane of
glass was shivered on " ards Island or
in the city. The effect of the explosion
has been to change the current aud set
it directly against the Big and Little
Rocks, which will have to be exploded
next.

day next, view the situation calmly and
thoroughly, and see to 1t that they do
not place in nomination men Of untried
ability. For Assembly, we believe,
there is no stronger or better man In
the party that Hon. A. j. DurlinG, Of
Lehighton, who has so satisfactorily
completed his first term in that body.
No word Of reproach has ever been
pointed at him by either his own or the
opposition party press, but all acknow-
ledge that Mr.. Durliug has proven one
of the most competent representatives
ever sent from this district. Then why
not give him second and unanimous
denomination II the convention will
do this, his triumphant election Is a
foregone conclusion.

The Democratic delegates election in

on Monday, October I'd, ,at 1870 O'Clock

riOus offices to be filed in the county
and State Legislature. That it is very
necessary that the Democrats nominate
their very strongest men. if they wish
TO achieve victory this fall, is evidenced
by the fact, that the Republicans have
a strong ticket in the feld-many of the
candidates being very lavorably looked
upon by the people generally especially
is this the ease ia the persons of w. Nj

and is therefore nearly 81 years of age.
At the age of nine years he was left
fatherless, with five younger brothers
and sisters than himself, without pen
ny for their support and education.
His path was not strewn with roses
but, with a determined will, close ap-
plication and economy, he struggled on,
and with his own hands earned the
means to secure liberal education.
He is q graduate of Albion College,
Michigan, in the scientific and mercan-
tile courses of that institution
When the war broke out, at the age
Of 19 years, he enlisted as private to
fight for the preservation of the Union'
He enlisted in July, 1861, and served,
without interruption, until August,
1864 period of more than years,
having g. enlisted on the field after his
first term of thu ee years had expired.
He carried mnsket and partici pated
in the battle of Baton Rouge, La, and
through the seige of Port Hudson, and
many minor engagements. At Port
Hudson, the General Commanding
made a special call tor one thousand
volunteers from the different regiments
of the command to lead the assault up
on that fortress, TO which Mr.. Rapsher
responded by rendering his services.
Before the close OF the war, his learn
ing and abilities became known to his
superior officers, and he was detailed
for special duty, and rendered valuable
services, in clerical capacity, in the
Office of the General Commanding the
Department of louisiana, while that
State vas under military government.
After the war was terminated, he
adopted teaching as profession, and

THE Conservative comes down severe
ly on one of our clergymen-name not
given-for having, on a late occasion in
the pulpit, in the wor DIS of our cotempo-
rary, ''hkened the Democratic party to a
pirate ship sailing under false colors. -
Now we are reliably informed that the
minister referred to did not in fact name
any party in his remarks. The omission
was supplied by the Conservative itself on
the presumotlon, we supposedly no
means violent-that the reverend gentle
man could not possibly have meant any
other party. We can appreciate our
neighbours sensitiveness, and think that
he is perfectly justified in concluding,
when anybody speaks of pirate ships and
sailing under false colors, III connection
with parties, that the Democratic party
is meant. There would be no point to
the comparison, otherwise.

Gratuitous Advertising.


The Sioux city Journal makes the fol
lowing sensible and timely comments up
on the unjust and unwarranted demands
sometimes made upon country newspa-
pers:
The publishers of country newspapers
are the most accommodating people in
the world They are so accommodating
that very respectable people have come
How these respectable people imagine the
poor devils are to live, we do not under
stand. That is Il point, probably, that
is not considered. Hardly mail comes
to the Office of any country newspaper
that does not contain one OF more appli
cations to "please insert" and "would
esteem 1t great favor" and all that
The fact is, comparatively few seem to
think it unbecoming to ask of the coun

Using for them. Space in the newspaper
Is all the publisher has to sell and this he
is largely expected to give away; if the
applications for free advertising were
confined to the mails, the country pub
Usher could get along with the difficulty
with comparative comfort. 1t is hard on
him, however, when the business men of
his town come to the office with sugges
tons as to certain newspaper work for
the upbuilding of the town-and of
themselves in particular. A suggestion
from the publisher as to the propricty of
the work being paid for is quite likely to
be unfavorably received. The truth is,
however, that if the newspaper is worth
buying it will be bought, and If it will
pay to advertise in it, it will be advcltis.
ed in. More than this, if the town can
possibly afford a newspaper, it will have
one. There is no occasion whatever for
newspaper men more than other people,
going about on their hands and knees, in
the most convenient attitude for kicking.
They should get up on their feet. When
they cannot stand upon their feet in the
newspaper business, their personal inter
ests will be conserved by quitting the
newspaper business; the country printers
should insist that they be paid for their
services They should disabuse the pub

to call for; they should correct the popu-
lar error that because he takes the paper
he has right to take anything else the
print shop can supply; one would not
think of going to store and buying
yard of calico and asking that silk
dress pattern be thrown in. The dead
beat policy is never profitable to news
papers.

Ieaths,

Mrs, Anna Ferguson, one Of our most earnest
christian women, died at her residence, In Win
throp, on Wednesday, Nov. 8.
In the death Of Mrs. Furgeson, all who knew
her recognize the loss from our number Of chris
tian woman and true friend OF all OF those with
whom she was brought into contact.
She leaves dependent upon her broken hearted
husband, little babe and two other small chill
dren. She confidently spoke Of her departure pre-
vious to her DEATH as an anticipated event, arrang
ed all her household affairs with reference to it,
and remarked but few hours previous to her
death, that her lamp was trimmed and burning.
Her funeral obsequies were observed at the Con-
gregational church On Friday P. NJ, where large
congregation assembled to pay last tribute Of
Sespect to one so worthy. Her funeral sermon
was preached by her pastor, Rev. E, g. Carpenter,
from Rev. 3, 4, And they shall walk with Me in
