Stockton, March /. 1879

Mr. EDITOR We had quite lively day
in our town yesterday, Feb. 2sth. The sale
of the personal property of the Stockton
Spoke Works took place, which brought
large crowd together, but the most attractive
feature of the occasion was a grand shooting
match between our great shootist, Mr.. John
w. Dits and one Mr.. Price, from Newte W
Pa. The match was to be for $50 per side
and to shoot at twenty birds apiece, but the
whole thing seemed to have been a grand
scheme to sell beer and get crowd together
for that purpose We think it is high time
that this thing is stopped here. We have
saloon that has no license, it having been re-
fused at our two last courts, but still things
go right on the same as if there was license
and we can't see why the citizens of Stockton
allow it to go on. 1t seems as though some
people can do just as they please, setting at
naught all law and order and no notice is tax
en- of it. But we think from present indica-
tions there will be some stirring up when the
next court meets. We don't wish to interfere
with anyone's business but when such scenes
are being enacted as there were in and around
the saloon ON Friday night last, we think it's
time for good citizens to take the matter in
hand, and it will certainly be done if there is
not some improvement. The proprietor is
prominent Democratic candidate for chosen
freebooter and we should think if he bad any
regard for his private or political character
he would mend his ways for the purpose of
reform as per platform, if not for the benefit
of the community and the rising generation.
If things are not stopped, we will renovate
this whole subject with printers ink as well
as in legal shape in our courts.

REAVILLE LETTER.

On Sunday morning last, sixty four persons
united with the Presbyterian Church at Rea-
vile, Rev. J. p. w. Blattenbe,ger Pastor
forty seven by profession of faith and seven
teen by certificate. 1t was a solemn scene to
see parents and children, gray headed men
and women standing up to be baptized in the
name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The pastor, Rev. Mr.. Blattenberger, did
not preach sermon, but counseled with those
who were about to commence their new life
to have patience and forbearance toward
those who would scoff and scorn at them, to
stand firm in the steps they had taken and at
I e Judgment day all would be well.
In the evening he preached from Ecclesias-
ties, chap. K. 1st verse, Dead flies cause the
ointment of the apothecary to send forth a
sinking SAVIOR SO doth little folly him that
is in reputation for wisdom aud honor" The
church was filled to its utmost capacity. The
services will be continued this Wednesday

FIR ENCHT0WN LETTER.

Frenchtown, March 1st, 1879.
On Wednesday of last week, there was
stolen from the residence of Thomas Lequear,
residing about three miles south of this place,
gray horse, wagon and harness. fifteen hams
and shoulders, turkeys and chickens. The
tracks of three persons were discovered
around the buildings the next morning. A
young widower of the neighborhood who had
been at our place and was late in returning
home, met the parties with the horse and
wagon driving at furious rate in the south
ern part of our Borough. In the morning,
Samuel B. Pickel, farmer at Mount Pleas
ant, found the horse and wagon at his barn.
1t is supposed that the thieves drove to Mil
ford and unloaded their plumber and set the
horse adrift. Nothing further has been learn
ed at the present writing.
The fierce contest has now commenced
thus early for Mayor and Common Council, 10
be elected next month. The rum candidate
for Mayor and would be Assemblyman, APP
pears to be afraid that it will hurt his popu-
larity if he is candidate for Mayor, when
the time comes to elect an Assemblyman. 1t
is to be hoped that the religious minded por-
tion of the people, at least, will not entirely
lose sight of the principles which should gov
ern them in their choice for that Office. Some
men are carried away on such occasions by
the wild excitement of rum clamor, without
pausing to think upon what they are doing or
what may be the consequences of their vote,
and how far they may directly or indirectly
aid the rum power by their vote Let them
listen to the tales (not the tails on the town.
of the widow and the orphan, in fact of all
who have suffered in our midst and they will
tell you in the language Of sober truth what
misery rum has caused them. Most of the
rum candidates for Council have large hearts
with nothing but fair and generous impuls-
es, and experience has fitted them for more
honorable purpose than to encourage sin and
iniquity in our midst We are informed that
no member of tho Presbyterian or NJ. L.

MAD Doc EXCITEMENT Considerable ex-
element was occasioned in Solebury, on Mon
day last, on account of the presence of a mad
dog roaming about The canine was first no
ticed at Centre Bridge, from which place it
was followed by parties until it was finally
killed, by Eleazer Doan, of New Hope, near
the farm of Richard Janney. Several shots
were at different times fired at the dog, but
it kept right on in its course, we are told, and
bit COW and a number of dogs All the dogs
that were known to have been bitten or even
suspected Of having been bitten were killed.

STOCKTON lTEMs.--0n Sunday night last
the store of r. R. Boss was broken into by
prying open the front doors, but it is suppos-
ed the thieves were frightened away before
they gotfairly to work, as nothing is missing
The paper-ware company has got under
way and is turning out some very durable
as we'll as ornamental ware and bids fair to be
success One good thing about it is, they
are employing quite number Of men and
paying them promptly every two weeks.
The sale of the real estate of the Stockton
Spoke Works and of WV. Case 6 Bro. takes
places next Saturday. 1t includes the saw
mill, spoke factory, grain store and several
first-class dwelling houses. We hope they
will be purchased by parties that have some
enterprise about them.
Capt. Nipper Lewis was nominated on Sat.
urday last, on the Republican ticket for
poundkeeper and we hope he will be elected,
as heis down on stock running at large.
Democratic politicians are fearfully on the
rampage just now and seem to act as though
the whole country depended on their special
exertions none of them wanting office on
their own account but simply because many
friends urge them on; hence they are willing
to accept for their country's good
