From the Huntirgdon Vindicator,


Judge Alvin Hawkins left here
Wednesday for Cincinnati, to attend
the general conference eft the NJ. E.
Church which meets in that city.
An old gentleman named John Es-
kew, residing in the seventh civil dis
trict, died at the ripe old age of nine
ty seven. He leaves many descend-
ants in this and adjoining counties to
mourn his death.
We mean no disrespect to the wor-
thy gentlemen who were taken in by
the lottery on the circus grounds
yesterday, but it does look as if there
was a screw loose somewhere when
two as ola men as they land as economi-
cal, bite like fish at one of the most
swindles BY which a scoun>
drei ever gained Il living. The first
one taken in was Mr.. Hester, who re-
sides a few miles from town. He
borrowed part of the money he lost
.s200-and at the suggestion of his
friends, aided by the Sheriff, succeed
ed in recovering his money. We I'M
derstand Esq. Elisha Bennett, who
resides three miles south of here, was
also victimized to the amount of 800,
which he recovered. These were the
two principal ones we heard of, though
Il number were swindled out Of small
amounts, of which they were ashamed
to make Il noise.

Not good Season for BOIting.

We have just one thing to say to
the dlscontented spirits who are in
clined to bolt the Democratic nomina-
tions this year: 1t is not favorable
season for carrying their designs into
execution.
The issue of the Presidential CAM
paign involves the preservation of our
form ofgovernment Grants election
is beyond all cavil a step-a long
stride-toward Imperialism. The
greatest, best, most patriotic men in
the Republican party 50 regard 1t.
Gen. Grant himself, when referring
to the subject in recent public
speech, said that he was accused of
seeking to be something more than
President, I but omitted entirely
to aisclaim such purpose.
At such a time boilers from the
only party dete:minedly opposed to a
Third Term and to Imperialism have
no place in American politics-cer-
tainly 40 reputable place.
The only way is to leave them soli-
tary and alone, without any following.

The Gossip

The werds Of the gossip are as
wounds; to silence the envious
tongues, be just and fear net.
"What comparatively happy and
blessed werld this would be If peo pie
would only hold their tongues" Es-
pecially would innocent and timid
persons be made more happy if the
gossipers would attend to that which
concerns their own conduct, and let
other peoples acts alone, net render
ing interpretations in accordance
with their sinister views. There is q
promptness on the part CT small and
evil disposed individuals to torture
the words and acts of others, so as to
coincide with the obliquity always
existing in the babbler's mind, totally
disrespectfully Of the feelings OF their
fellows This moral pest ignores the
good cid adage: mind your own
business and let the affairs of others
alone" Seeing others engaged i'll So
cial relations, necessarily arising in
daily intercourse, they misconstrue
the innocent cOmmingling Of the sexes
and whether inclined or not, do make
people unhappy by uttering idle
words, baseless and untrue; but the
tattler cares not Us to the foundation
of reports. The pleasure of repeat
ing unpleasant things is paramount,
and the vulture's scent for carriOn is
net more keen than this social buzz
zard, eager to circulate small talk.
They are relentless, and show no mercy
towards any person or class. The
mind of the gossip soon bconies inca
pable of entertaining or instructive
conversation and all good people are
careful of their words and actions in
the presence of these lOquacious fen,
goids on society.
1t is cruel and sinful to do or say
anything that produces pain or de-
prIves our fellows of the pleasures and
enobting influences german to the so>
ciety Of the pure and good, and wheth-
er intended or not, is reprehensible,
and should not he countenanced.
With weaciless steps the gossip tracks
the village,-to utter with minuteness
and iteration suppositions as truths,
reckless asto consequences, norcares fer
the eHnocent or the guilty? To lie the
first to tell a taleis of much more impor-
tance than to be truthful. The golden
rule has no beauties for them. This evil
is Il tatal blight TO society; it gradual
ly crushes out ali desire for rational
lis spirit is essentially
selfish and Is gratiied by an inordi>
nate desire to babhle, regardless OF the
feelings of others. Reader, is your
heart set on annoying. by tattling Vt
the conduct Of Others or retailing stale
tales without foundation, the emana-
ton of an evil mind? Remember that
sooner or later you will earn, and jus
tly too, the reputation of one who is
if not q common talsifier.
You are not set as Il Judge over the ac>
tions or affairs of others; the 'OabblCr
and medler in other peoples business
or acts only mars, and thank heaven,
it does some time happen that in
thrusting his nose into other peoples
affairs he gets it seriously jammed,
but not as often as he should; but as
often as he does, he will find in the
pure no sympathy" ). u. l..
