Was the Hunterdon Democrat one of the
Democratic papers that published for pay
the libel on Clerk Little? fit was, its pub
Usher should have been complained of to the
Grand Jury by Little, when he made the
complaint against the single Republican
editor who has been convicted. To let fifteen
Democratic editors go free after publishing
certain article and to vent his spite on two
editors Of another party, is what we con-
demned. Does the Democrat say that such
course isjust But the editor of the Demo
crat is probably not the author of the article
in his last issue referring to what we had to
say on that subject. 1t sets out with wilful-
ly false statement of our views and ends with
mean innuendo. Such ear marks - point
to the " local editor" who is always about
when anything of that kind is to be done.

Major Vancleve, Temperance Evangelist
aud co-worker of Francis Murphy, met with
greatsuccess in his labors at New Hampton,
with gospel temperance meetings. Last week
he closed his labors at Glen Gardner with ov-
three hundred names enrolled upon the total
abstinence pledge and the side of right, among
whom we're many hard and notorious drink
ers. During the past year his labors have
been crowned with success wherever he has
been, and at Newtown, Deckertown, Blairs-
town, Hamburg and other places, over three
thousand names were taken to the pledge, and
many gave their hearts to Christ. This is
the work of gospel temperance, and in
leaving Glen Gardner, his last place of labor,
many were the evidences OF gratitude given
to Major Vancleave, and his name and work
will long be remembered by them. Major
Vancleve is about forty years Of age, OF ;.ne
appearance, and handles his subject without
gloves, and soon convinces all that his heart
Is in the work before him. He proposes to
