II 1t were rowdies and roughs only
that were giving utterance to the de-
claration that there should not be an
Inauguration, unless their candidate
shall be counted In, we could, perhaps,
pardon the indiscretion, but when we
hear men of standing, intelligence
and professed patriotism, talking In
this way we have no patience with
them, and are ready to pray that the
country may soon get rid Of them, for
so long as they remain here they will
only be disturbes of the peace and
destroyers of the nation.
There are good and sincere patriots
who will pay no attention to the
empty threats made by q few cowardly
politicians. but 1t would be much bet
ter If they were not uttered. Unless
fully convinced that they were fairly
elected we don't selieve that either
Governor Hayes or Governor Tilden
would allow himself to be escorted to
the White House by armed bands of
men. The candidate who shall be de-
clared duly elected must have reas-
enable assurance that the people de-
sire him to be their ruler, or he will
not accept of the office.
The indiscreet remarks of some par
tisans, who desire office more than any,
thing else, have q tendency to inflame
the passions, and beget bad and revolu-
tionary feeling. 1t is to be hoped.
therefore, that all will patiently await
the result, and when announced will
abide by 1t

Saturday night, the floor gave way and
eight persona were killed and about one
hundred wounded. The opera house was
situated over large livery stable, and
formerly be n used as State armory.
About a thousand persons were present.
When the foor gave way the entire audi
tor;um, carrying with it the stage and
gallery was precipitated to The stable be-
meath. The lights were extinguished, and
a scene of fearful confusion ensued. The
name of the killed are: T. W. Perry, jani-

tremendous stocks of goods. We no

Messes Powell & Kline, are opening
up one of the largest and most COM

we remember ever before having seen
in our town. Indications too are that
they have made no mistake in ventur-

there is a constant rush for their new
goods. Every department of their
well arranged salesrooms seems to be
well filled not only with the choicest
of seasonable goods, but also with we'll

Blaine is likely to be elected Presi-
dent of the Senate as soon as Congress
assemblies. This is with view to
providing against any vacancy that
might occur in the office of President
should Congress refuse to 60 into joint
convention to complete the election
of the President next February. Blaine
would then be President for the ensu-
ing year till a new President could be
elected and inaugurated. Blaine
would be a bigger man than Tilden

A Remark ON Grangerism.

POINT PLEASANT July 90, 1876.
Editor Herald.
When 1 say grangerism, l do not
have reference to the true principles of
the order, but to that portion of the
principles that are practiced by por-
ton of its members. The platform
and the constitution of the true patrons
of husbandry, are very good, but those
that l speak of are these: We must
bring down the price of merchandise
and the labor of mechanics" Yes
they wish to bring it even so low that
there cannot be an honest living made
thereby. Then on the other hand,
eve must have the highest price for
what we have to sell of our farm pro-
ducts" Yes, even more than it will
bring in the leading markets in the
State. Such are the principles and
intentions of some of the granger par
ty, and such has been practiced by
some Of them, at least as far as was in
their power so to do. All persons
joining any order or institution with
any other intention than that of max
ing themselves better men, are to be
dreaded and kept out ofall such places.
1t is very common for them to seek
such chances to mix and mingle with
honest men as a cloak to hide their
rascality.
We acknowledge that there are bad
men among merchants, mechanics and
all other classes of men, yet that does
not justify such men as have joined
secret orders with the pretence of build
ing up the interest of the country, and
at the same time doing the very thing
that would prove its downfall.
think perhaps that some persons
this may fit are so biased by selfish
motives that they have not taken time
to consider the great inconsistency of
such acts, or they would not act so it
being their nature to do better if they
could only see their conduct as disin-
terested persons view it. 1 hope that
all true patrons in principle, will not
take my few simple remarks as hit
at their order, but as a slight hint to
those that belong to it and are acting
in bad faith with their obligation. 1
wish the true patrons well, and for that
reason 1 have made these remarks

From Spring Lick.

SPRING LICK, July "a, 1876.
Editor Herald:
The continued dry weather has pro-
duced in the minds of many rather
gloomy forebodings in respect to the
crops. Corn, in some localities, is suf-
fering a good deal for lack of rain, and
tobacco ditto. The weather, though,
to-day is highly indicative of rain, and
it would be superfuOus to say that the
countenance of many a farmer is BEAM
ing with fond hope in consequence of
the indicativeness.
The saw mill owned by Messrs. By
ers d Co. is now in full operation, and
we are requested to state that they
would be thankful to parties who
might favor them with their patronage.
Last week the railroad company put
in switch at COTS Crossing-quite
an advantage to those residing in that
vicinity for shipping lumber, hoop
poles, &c.
The tan-bark season is pretty well
closed for this year, but the hoop-pole
traffic at this time promises to be very
large here the next two months. The
price now being paid for same is high
ly remunerative to those engaged in
this business.
Since our last we have had one bar
becue in our place. A goodly num-
Der of the solons were in attendance
on the occasion. Dancing and SWING
ing were made special order of the
day, and were extensively participated
in by nearly all. No accident occurred
except to a Miss Payton, who was en-
joying herself in one of the swings,
when it broke and she fell out, the
seat falling against her forehead and
producing a.small fiesh-wound. We
understand that Thomas Smith, pro-
prietor of one of these s hgs, cleared,
over and above expenses, TEN CENTS.
We have a bar-room in our town, and
it would be useless to say that it was
well patronized, and from imbibing q
little to freely, some at the close of the
evening became somewhat boisterous.

A New Departure.

A lady correspondent thus discour-
ses; "The great want of women at
present is money-money for their
personal wants and money to carry
out their plans. propose they shall
earn it; that they shall consider it as
honorable to work for money as for
board and demand for them equal pay
for equal work. I insist that the bear
ing and rearing of children (the most
enacting emplOyments, and involving
the most terrible risks shall be the
best paid work in the world, and that
their husbands shall treat their wives
with as much consideration and &C
knowledge them entitled to as much
money as wet nurses"
The meaning of all this is, that
wives are about to strike for green
backs, so much for every baby born.
No greenbacks, no more sons and
daughters; no greenbacks, no more
population, no more BOYS to carry on
great enterprises of the age. The
scale of prices for maternal duties as
follows:
Girl Baby, 800; boy, 5000; twins,
$500; both boys, $500; triplets, 5000;
triplets, all boys, $1,000. Terms, C.
o. ID. No credit beyond first child.
Motto: pay up or dry up. Husbands
who desire to transmit their names to
posterity will please take notice, and
take new departure. G

A Warning 90 Bachelors.

Bottlebury will never dive into a
creek to save another woman from
drowning. He saw a red-haired girl
named Sparks tumble in the other
day off boat, and he instantly
plunged in after her, caught her by
her dress and swan to the shore with
her. As soon as they were on dry
land, Miss Sparks gave hysterical
scream, flung her arms around Bottle
bury's neck and tainted. Just then
the father came up, with the rest of
family, and perceiving the situation,
he dashed up to Bottlebury, grasped
his hand and said. "Take her, my
boy; take her! 1t is hard to give
her up; it wrenches her old fathers
heart; but she is yours. Bless you,
my children, bless your Then Mrs.
Sparks cried, and said she hoped Har-
riet would be happy. The little
Sparks manifested their emotion by
climbing up Bottlebury's legs and
pulling his coat tails. Then Harriet
came to- and laying her head on his
shoulder, whispered, "Kiss me dar-
ling!" Bottlebury, amazed and lhdig-
nant' tore himself away and flew. He
was arrested that afernoonOn charge of
breach Of promise, and on the trial
the jury gave the broken-hearted Miss
Sparks two hundred dollars damages.
Bottlebury has intimated to his conf
dental friends that ifany other warm
haired woman intends to fall over
board near him she will find it to
her advantage to learn to swim.
