The Republicans Of Lambertville did
their full duty on Tuesday The Democrats
claimed majority of from 1856 TO 200 in the
/ city, but the result shows only majority Of
119. This is quite disappointment to those
who claimed g the largest Democratic major
ity ever given"
The Democrats of this city again made
themselves ridiculous on Monday evening by
an attempt to "take down" the Republican
procession in numbers. How complete a fiz-
zle it was they themselves are fully conscious.
"A lady living at White Hall, in this coun-
ty, has woven since the year 1865, up to Sep
TENDER, 1876, 1854 yards of rag carpet, and
most of the time has done her own house
work. Her name is Catherine Anthony, aged
Ga years, widow. From April, 1876, to Sep
TENDER, she has woven GAL yards.

dressed the Republicans at Ringoes on last
Thursday evening at Pennington tn Friday
evening, and at Hopewell on Saturday after

places.
The Orphean Musical Society, of this
city, now hold meetings at LARS Hall, every
Wednesday evening. They have decided to
bring out the " Cantata of Queen Esther"
under the direction of Prof. l.. L. Ross, of
Easton, and rehearsals are about to COM
mence This will be q grand musical event
for Lambcrtville, and our people may prepare
themselves for musical entertainment super
ior to any they have ever listened to in this
city.
The editor of the Hunterdon Democrat
does not himself descend to backguardism.
He keeps local reporter for that purpose
He has been pretty decent, however, during
the campaign until the present week, when,
owing perhaps to taking too large q dose of
that tough old bull and iujurieg bis digestion,
or for some other cause, he is quite personal
and abusive. We believe that this reporter
has always been treated in gentlemanly
manner by us, and we had therefore a claim
for similar treatment. We can stand it if he
can
Go North, South, East or West, and you
will find coughs and colds at this season of
the year. A remedy which never fails to

The Republicans of this city had a grand
torchlight procession on last Monday evening.
Although it was first thought of on the Fri
day evening previous, it was one of the finest
parades ever witnessed here There were
about nine hundred mon in line, with two
good bands calcium light, &C., and .notwith-
standing the rain was coming down quite
freely, the men stood to their posts and went
over the line of march without flinching-
There were delegations present from New
Hope and surrounding parts of Bucks Coun-
ty, and from Hopewell, East and West Am
well, Delaware, etc. A large number of hous-
es were illuminated, At the close of the pa
rade a large meeting was held at Lyceum

The Democratic bull-roast, in this city,
on last Friday, was tho greatest political fiz-
zle ever seen here. The day procession
amounted to little over two hundred per-
sons all told. The "grand torchlight pro-
cession in the evening mustered some
thing over three hundred, including large
number of Juveniles, and noticeable feature
of the procession was the almost entire alb
sence of the Democracy of this city. The un-
terrified from the country were highly incens-
ed at this, and say they do not propose to Wis
it Lambertyile bull-roasts in the future. The
speaking by Ex-Gov. Parker and two other
lesser lights was tame, and the whole affair
was rather dispiriting. If it had not been
advertised as Democratic meeting, an OBJ
server would have supposed that it was sim
ply bull-roast for the benefit of two or three
hotel keepers. A vast amount of whskey
was consumed, drunkenness, fighting and dis
orders were frequent, and all decent Democrats
were Disguised by the spectacle. 1t made
votes for the Republicans.

was as follows:
