"A Democratic pole and dog fight are the
two sensations at the Democratic headquarters
in the First Ward. The pole has not yet been
put up but the bets on the dog fight were, and
the fight came off yesterday. 1t is not to be
expected, perhaps, that our city. officers will
make any arrests.
| About one hundred and fifty persons were
entertained by the hotels of this city on last
Monday Eyeg. Most of these were passengers
from the D. L. & w. r. R., by the late even
ing down train. That train gets to Philadel-
phia SO late that great many prefer to get
off here for the night, rather than hunt accom-
modations in the city after midnight.
Let Republicans who wish to see the
country prosperous and taxation reduced,
work from now until Nov nth. Democratic
success means free trade and no work for the
nottingham. Democratic success means an
archy in the South, the payment Of rebel war
claims and high taxes.
Mr.. G. II. Hoff, the pleasant Stockton
storekeeper, while getting out of his carriage,
lost his pocket book in this city on Thursday

considerable of worry, but the lost property
was found by JAS. Mullineaux, Jr.. and re-
turned to him.

ION Monday morning. as Mr.. Charles Ii.
/ Clark, of this city, was examining locomo-
tive,a short distance below the depot a pass
enger car which was being backed up on a
side track, unnoticed by him, struck him and
knocked him down on the track, but with
presence of mind he rolled off before the
wheels caught him. He was somewhat hurt
about one of his shoulders.
The travel on the B. d. Division of the
.Penna. r. r., is still very great. The trains
compelled to stand on the platforms on one of
the trains, so crowded was it. On Monday
afternoon of this week, twenty-four car loads
of passengers from tho ID. L. 81 w. r. r.,
bound for the Centennial, were run down in
three sections. The passengers were from
] Syracuse, Binghampton, etc.
--'Pennsylvania Day. exceled all others
leinthe number of admissions to the Centennial.
Including free admissions there were about
275, 900 persons on the grounds. On Thurs
day afternoon number of our citizens went
down to see the fire works display given by
the celebrated English pyrotechnist, Brock, of
London, and returned at about1 A. NJ. on a
special train. In many respects the display
exceeded any other ever made in this country,
but in large pieces, Prof. jackson, of Phila-
delphia, excels him considerably
On last Saturday afternoon, Lawrence
Brewster, aged about IS years, "a son of Mr..
Jas. X. Brewster, of this city, while walking
on the railroad track near Eyes, below this
city, was taken with fit and fell between the
rails. While in this situation the down freight
train came along and passed over him but,
strangely enough, beyond the breaking of one
of his shoulder blades and some flesh wounds
ON his face, he was not injured For a time
he was insensible, and it was thought that
he was dangerously hurt, but this has proved
to be incorrect, and he is in fair way of re-
covery.
The Hunterdon Fair was SHINY attended,
excepting on Thursday, when there was a
good turnout but not equal to former years.
In some respects the display was very good,
but, as usual, the horse-trotting was the prin-
cipal feature. The great purpose of the fair,
however, judging from the man@uvres of the
politicians land their name was legion), was
| to wire-pull for the coming caucus. Thurs
day was q field-day for candidates and their
| friends, and the number of people button
holed and bored with the Office seekers plea,
was only restricted by the number in attend
ance. a@e
