buy new type and start his paper
again. 1t was the organ of the AL
legany county Democracy. Mr..
Blocher was engaged in the brick
business here for many years, and at
one time was farming with one Of
his sons in Charles county. He re-
turned to Cumberland in 1867, and
was appointed a justice of the peace,
which Office he held up to the time
of his death. He leaves widow
and nine children, four sons and five
daughters, and quite number of
grandchildren. One son (Georgel is
now sergeant of police in Baltimore
city. His son William, who was
connected with his father while in
charge of the cattle scales, is also
living in Baltimore. His other two
sons are living IN this city. All of
his daughters, but one, are married.
Mr.. Blocher was always promi
nent Democrat, and was able to be
on the stage at the Academy of
Music at one of the Democratic
mass meetings during the late cams
paign. His death will be univers-
ally regretted.

WHAT GEN. SIMON CAMERON
THINKS OF THE NEW ADMINIsTRA-
TON, &c A representative of the
PhiladeIphia, Press recently had an
interview with ex-senator Simon
Cameron in that gentleman is repre
scented AS saying:
81 have great faith in Gen. Gar
field. | believe he will do, during
his administration, just what will
contribute to the end | have indica-
ted, and destroy sectionalism in this
country. | believe he will leave his
mark upon his time. He has great
opportunity, and if he correctly ap
preciates the popular feeling which
gave him this high Office with all its
great possibilities, he will confer upon
this country blessings which will be
as lasting as his fame. [ believe he
understands and appreciates the stu
alton and the necessity for harmonic
Gus action by all the elements of his
party, and to secure this all must be
called into requisition in the work he
has to do"
"It is little early, but do you uni.
derstand Gen. Garfield, like Presi.
dent Hayes, to be committed to a
single term ?"
"By no means. Gen. Garfield's
future is in his own hands, and he
will be his own successor unless he
neglects the opportunities which
even crowd uD0n him. | am in favor
of supporting his administration in
every way, and if it be such as to
commend itself to the whole Repub-
liean party, AS / believe it will. l
have no hesitation in saying that he
should be re elected. Indeed, he will
find no mere earnest supporters,
either during his administration or
for his future advancement, than my
self and all other stalWarts. None of
General Grants friends hink or have
thought OF making him a candidate
in 1884. Gen. Grant himself has not,
L believe, ever had such thought.
He Is the most unSelfish man | ever

which would raise a popular ciam0r
for some other candidate. General
Grant is yet a young man, and at
some future time, after Gen. Garfield
has been fully rewarded, may be
called to the Presidency again. But
depreciate all this talk about Gen.
Grants future. He is able to take
care Of himself"

The approach of the long winter
evenings calls attention to the matter
Of II lamp, for without a coed light
half the pleasure or profit is taken
from reading or study. Coal oil is
now in general use for illuminating
purposes outside of cities or large
towns where coal gas is used, and
when a proper lamp is used it is the
best substitute for sunlight vet dis
covered. The principle or plan upon
which the Student lamp is construc-
ted may be said to be the best in
use. but the lamp itself has always
had several Objectionable features
which we are glad to see are being
done away with in the new aspirant
fer favor called the "HoME LAMP"
manufactured by the Home Lamp
Co. of Cincinnati. The great Offices
ton to most other lamps is their liza
bility to be upset, the trouble to keep
them in order, and the poor light
given by them. The New Home
Lamp is Nickle Plated, and almost a
facsimile of the Student Lamp; it
has handsome ornamented clamp
by means of which the lamp can at
ence be easily adjusted to any posi-
ton upon the centre table, piano,
music rest, sewing machine, desk, or
by meanB of a handsome bracket,
which goes with the lamp, can be
placed upon the wall, aud in what
ever position it is placed it is abso.
lutely safe. This is the great feature
of excellence, but the New Home
Lamp combines also the patent ar.
gand burner. filling indicator and
match box. No lamp has ever be-
fore been received with such unusual
favor or received such strong recon-
mendations from the leading journals
of Cincinnati. 1t is also endorsed by
such men as the mayor and postmas-
ter, several insurance presidents and
express agents of that city as the
safest, most convenient and best
lamp made. The Company desires
agents in this locality, and any
smart lady or gentleman can make
handsome income during the next
six months by canyassing for its sale.
There is hardly dozen families in
This county who will not want one,
and the price i, so low as to bring it
within the reach uf all. For further

Newspaper Laws.

We would call the especial atten-
ton of pesttnasterS and subscribers
tie the following synopsis Of the
newspaper laws:
/. A postmaster is required togive
notice by letter returning "A paper
does not answer the law when a
subscriber does not take his paper
out of the office, and state the rea.
sons for its not being taken. Any
neglect to do so makes the postmas-
ter responsible to the publisher for
payment.
2. Any person who takes a paper
from the poStoffice, whether directed
to his name or another, or whether
he has subscribed or not, he is re.
sponsible for the pay.
3. If person orders his paper dis.
continued, he must pay all arrear-
ages, or the publisher may continue
to send it until payment is made,
and collect the whole amount, Wheth-
er it be taken FROM the office or not.
There can be no legal discontinue
ance u til the payment is made.
4. If the subscriber orders his pa
per to be stopped at a certain time,
and the publisher continues to send
it, the subscriber is bound to pay for
ii if he takes it out of the postoffice.
The law proceeds upon the ground
that man must pay for what he
uses.
5. The courts have decided that re-
fuslng to take newspaper and peri
odicals from the posloffice, or re-
moving and leaving them uncalled
for, is prinad .fdcie evidence OF inten-
tional fraud.
