An Astonishing Fact.

A large proportion of the American people
are today dying from the effects Of Dyspep-
STA or disordered liver. The result Of these
diseases upon the misses of intelligent and
valuable people is most alarming, making life

ence of enjoyment and usefulness as 1t ought
to be. There is no good reason for this, Il
you will only throw aside prejudice and sRep.
ticism, take the advice Of Druggists and your
friends, and try one bottle Of Green's August
Flower. Your speedy relief is certain. Mil
given away to try IT'S virtues, with satisfactory
results IN every Case. You can buy sam.
ple.bottls for, 10 cents TO try. Three doses
win relieve the worst case. Positively sold

Mr.. EDITOR When wrote my last com
to pay any more attention to the highly cult.
dated, refined and polite local editor of the
Hunterdon Democrat, but the article in this
weeks Democrat is of such nature, that
should be even less of man than this pulled
up piece of conceit, the g Local editor,' were
to pass it by in silence. 1t is laughable to
see how this disciple of Billingsgate changes
his opinion of me. After reading my first
article he quickly came to the conclusion that
was an iliterate fellow" or more likely
:" stupid school boy;" now am "a pot
house hummer a dead beat" &c. OF one
thing, he may be assured, that never will
call ON him for instruction in the art of act
ing like a gentleman. If my communication
was "cearse 4" and low minded" it was so,
because l saw that the only way to fight such
a man, was by using the same weapons which
he used. | found it was necessary to eight
fire with fire. As he does not even know
who the writer of this and the former article
is, can rest more easy under his fire OF a
buse and degrading epithet than he can when
happen to strike vulnerable spot in his
armor. The reference to "LambertviIle poe
try bottled" comes with an ill grace from the
Local editor OF the Democrat. Does he re-.
member that once upon time a Journalist -
from Flsmingtcn came to :his place on a tour
of inspection, having been sent here evident
ly to write up description of The business
and manufacturing interests? The "de-
scription" said journglist gave in the next is
sue of the journal OH which he was employ
ed, was composed of half-coldmn descrip-
tion of a certain liquor store or "gin mill, -
which was flourshing here at the time.
AS to my not being a tax payer, venture
to say, pay almost as much as the Local edi-
tor of the Democrat.
One thing have had explained to ME
through this Controversy. have heard 1t said
that the editors of papers around about were
very much disinclined to enter into any dis
cussion with this Local editor. cali under
stand the reason now. II is no pleasure to be
beslfihed and no glory TO get the best of such
a person.
In Conclusion, have only to say, that this
Local editor can search all the records of Bill
lingsgate, collect all the nasty epithets the
most degraded mind can think Of chan con.
dense the Whole into one last article and hurl
1t through the columns of the Democrat He
will have the last word this time, for this time
/ mean to adhere to MY resolution, to decline
to further assist thfs man in his dirty work BY
paying even the slightest attention to any
thing he may say in the future.
Respectfully,
A Tx PAYER.

Stockton. N. J.. March 25tb. 1878.

Stockton, N. j.. March 25th, 1878.
Mr.. EDIToR AS we have not noticed any
thing from Stockton in your paper for few
weeks, we will try and give you little sketch
of some of our affairs.
There is likely to be considerable building
going on the coming Summer, beside those
that are nearly completed and ready for oc-
cupancy. About Che first of April, we hear,
several dwelling houses are expected to go up
and one new wheelwright shop. There is al
SO rumor of there being erected small
Catholic Church, bhs we only give it as fly
ing report and can't 4ouch for It.
Our mills and factories are all running on
full time and with apparent increase of kelp,
as we notice there have recently been some new
hands employed in the different branches. So
far there don't appear to be much prospect for
business in our stone quarries. The Pfalls-
vile quarries seem to be dead letter since
Kessler run them in the ground, and our
friend Peter Best tells us he has no prospect
ahead so far, unless something springs up sud-
denly or big freshet comesmnd takes away
some bridges 10 the county, and then he will
be there looking after things in general
Mr.. Slower has got the old Prafsville mill
rebuilt and has just Commenced grinding feed
and buying m grain he viii not be ready to
grind wheat yet for some time. When this
mill is completed it wifi have five r6in of stone
and will be one of the best mills on the Della
ware in regard to power and manner of con-
struction, everything that is put into it being
of the very best character.
We are inclined to think that our village
would be good location for some eye-doetor,
as we notice several Of our young people have
got to wearing eyeglasses of late and IL has
been serions question to know whether the
disease is ID the eyes entirely, and only affect
ed the outside, or whether It was an affection
Of tire brain. The most singular part of it is
some of them can see wen enougli when il
town but when they get out of it they have
to get on their specs and then you ~ohldn't be
lieve how wise they do looks This disease hal
been raging for some time in some larger
towns but has Just recently reached ours and
is spreading to an alarming extent.
Our town meeting passed off very quietly
one Of our ioblest citizens being elected Con
stable by the combined efforts of both parties
in our town, and we would caution all evil do
ers to beware Of him as he is full team ane
dog under the wagon, and perfectly uncon
scions Of fear when he gets started and JUS
as sure as he gets hands on a man he will
fetch him. This is the kind Of . man we want
for we expect to 20 into the tramp bushes
hext Winter. TIT

Pooh SPEcuLATIoN.-The project of es-
tablishing Poor House Farm in Hunterdon
County, is not at all popular. The idea is
simply preposterous. especially just at this
time, considering the general prostration of
business, and corn only forty -fiye cents per
busliel And we warn those in authority to
90 slow In the natter or woe be unto you.
Without dollar In the treasury to defray
current expenses, and the county sadly in
debt to-boot is 1t not astonishing that the
projectors Of this nuisance have not already
been removed to the Morristown Insane Asy-
lum. To accomplish the work you would be-
obliged to go down 10 pockets for every dol
lar, and we are decidedly opposed to taxing
people to death to keep a raft of lazy bum
mers in ease and luxury. To keep the legal
poor, is duty We owe to mankind, but for
Mr.. Hunterdon to establish free boarding
house for the whole world Is we think little
too sweet Why, they would swarm in like
fiys around a molasses barrel, and Judging
from the number picked up at Lambertville,
during the last six months, it would require
about five townships to accommodate them.
The Morristown Insane Asylum is the ac-
knowledged white elephant of the State, and
this young cub of ours would soon become
the great bug of the county. They have an
institution of the kind In Bucks County, Pa,
as the taxpayers there are well aware, and a
certain class of bummers tired of work go to
the Poor House and live there like kings at

The city schools opened with
largely increased numbers, while
the existing accommodation, made
quate - Il was last year, completely
breaks down under the additional
numbers 10 be provided for. This
dispropOrtion between numbers and
accommodation has presented diff
caIties 60 both the Superintendent
and the School Board which so
far remain unsolved and insoluble.
Additional teaching force is needed,
but this might be dispensed with if
certain classes could be brought
together and brigaded under one
teacher: but this is impossible on
account Of the limited size of the
ROOMS. 1t i not only teaching and
discipline which become impossible
under such circumstances, but the
health Of the scholars is seriously
imperiIed. We have not space for
a lengthy discussion of this sub
ject, but will present, ina condensed
fpr-n @opa facts hearing upon it
Scientific winters have decided that
smallest number Of cubit feet that
can with safety to health be assigned
per capita to persons confined in
jails, hospitals, schools, &c, is for
adults 500. Even for children the
half Of this, at least, would be
essential. and many of our senior
scholars do not, by any means, come
under that category But assuming
400 cubic feet per scholar, as the
minimum, we desire the attention
of our readers to the following actual
state Of things ascertained by care
full measurements by the writer in
person. The number of cubic feet
per scholar in the different school
rooms is stated as follows,
