A CONQUERED BACKWOOD~-
m

A well known engineer, while engaged
in the survey of railroad line through a
wild and sparsely inhabited part of Ar
kansas, left the camp one day to make, as
he termed it, social call on the natives.
He suddenly rnn upon a small ''clearing
near the centre Of which stood an unpre-
tentious habitation of "daub" and log.
A raw-boned man emerged from a patch
of yellow bladed corn and exclaimed
"Hello thar"
"Good morning." said the engineer,
advancing. Gas | happen to be trans
acting peripatetic business through your
community, thought I'd call around and
see you"
The squatter looked ut the engineer
critically for a moment and replied:
Il had lowed to keep the peace and
was boun' over by the Simmon boys, but
| reckin I'll have TO break over, fur don't
see no other chance"
''I don't understand YOU"
81 reckin not, but turn about is fair
play, fur don't understan you. Ef my
boys was ter hear you they would be wild
afore night, an we'd halter blow the hon
when We wanted to see 'em. Pera-
tetic,'" and he began to roll up his
sleeves
81 meant no insult by the word, sir,
and used it thoughtlessly."
"Yas, reckin so, but it won't do to
let a teller 90 on in that way"
"What do You intend to do:"
eight yer"
"What for ?"
"Partly because don't like yer shape.
partly ease you come aroun' here like a
travelin' school-house, an partly because
want ter keep my ham ill., amt had
no jennywine exercise sence | jned the
church an laid by CON-
"Well, if you must fight" replied the
engineer, am with you. Come on"
The two men pranced around each
other for a few moments, and began pu-
gilistic dodges and devices. The squat
ter possessed the old time knock-down
theory, from which the science of boxing
evolved, but the engineer was a man with
all the modern appliances. About the
first thing the squatter realized after the
engagement opened was sudden jar, a
giddiness about the head and fall with
out having made any especial selection as
to place. He quickly regained his feet,
but as quickly went down again.
"Hold on" he said "Ain't thar some
mistake here p
81 don't know" replied the engineer
"Look around, and if you discover All
error we'll endeavor to correct it."
The squatter approached again, but
was again knocked down. "Say, blamed
if things amt gettn' sorter tiresome for
me-"
YOU'D better rest awhile"
Look here, amt you one of them fell
lers what you read about -
"Well, not particularly"

THE LONG WHITE SEAM.
TFrom Jean Ing.lpw's Poems ]
| came around the harhOr huov

tFrom Jean Ingtlpw's Poems1
As came around the harbOr buoy
The lights began to gleam;
No wave the land-lOcked water stirred
The crays were white as cream
And marked my love by candle light
Sewing her long white seam.
It's aye sewing ashore. my dear,
Watch and steer at sea-
It's reef and furl, and haul the line,
Set sail and think of thee
l climbed to reach her cottage door;
Oh, sweetly my love sings!
Like a shaft of light her voice breaks forth
My soul to meet it springs,
AS the shining wat-r leaped of old,
When stirred by angel wings.
Aye, longing to listen anew,
Awake aud in my dream,
But never a song sh- sang like this,
Sewing her long white seam.
Fair fall the lights, the barbor lights,
That brought me in To thee,
And peace drop down on that low roof
For the sight that did see,
And the voice, my DEAR that rang so clear
All for the love of me.
For oh, for oh, with brows bent low
By the candles Pickering geam,
Her wedding-y"wn it was she wrought

AT Nos. So, So and 81 Church street is
another of the prominent mercantile
houses of the city-a house that merits
mention in this review by reason of var-
Gus causes. Its proprietor is Mr. p. b.
Mackey, gentleman who has been identi-
fed with trade interests of one kind or
another here for number of years, and
who is the only native of Warren county
that we have as yet among our business
men.
II When Mr. Mackey came to Lambert
vile, in 1867, he opened wall paper an6
paint house at No Sc Bridge street,
which he conducted for two years Then
be engaged in the -four and feed business
upon Clinton street, where he remained
for couple of years, when he again
changed business aud location, opening a
general merchandise store on Cottage
Hill-a location he retained fer ten years.
Upon removing from there he took pos
session of the block he now occupies on
Church street, block containing three
stores in one, the central portion being
three stories and basement, and the wings
each tive floors. This space affords am
pie room for the necessities of the bust
ness, and is utilized much as follows
No. 80 ground floor, is meat market, an
important department of the business
No. 50, ground floor, is the general sales
room, where are displayed dry goods, gro
ceries, and the countless aud indescriba-
BILE articles of q general stock, while the
second floor is devoted to oil cloths, boots
and shoes, clothing and other material
No. 81 may properly be called the prov
sion department, for here are meats,
flour, canned goods etc. OF course we
have not even outlined all the sub-divi-
sions of the house-but visitors can read-
ly appreciate its extent, and as readily be-
lieve that the trade controlled is ofgoodly
proportions. 1t is a trade, too that has
not been built up in day. To secure it
Mr.. Mackey has worked hard and faith
fully, and it is also trade that is retained
from year to year.
Referring to his business of last year
Mr.. Mackey spoke of it as having been
very good in common with most of our
merchants he admits trade has been some
what dull since the first of January last.
still he anticipates very fair years trade.
Our own opinion in the matter is to the
effect that the house is quite certain to Sc
cure its full share of the trade, and we
most certainly hope that the year will
prove remunerative one.

n TORNADO.
This city and vicinity was visited yes
terday afternoon with the most severe
wind and rain storm that has occurred in
years. The wind blew furiously, and
fences, trees and light buildings suffered
considerably.
In this city, the lighthouses of MI. Will
liam Lyman, were demolished, and the
glass broken. A trap door on the tower
of the NJ. +. Church was blown off, land

water entered and did some damage to
the ceiling. A trap door on the loof of
the new Catholic school building was also
blown off and the water admitted. The
end of an old frame building at the old
brewery, in this city, was blown in
Large limbs of trees were blown off in
different parts of the city, and numerous
fences blown down. The rain fell in tor
rents for few moments, and was &C.
companied by hail.
To the north of this city the rain was
more copious than here, and in parts of
West Amwell township the hail fell so
thick that it could be shoveled up. The
hail broke out some twenty-five window

A. h. J0HNs0N',s SONS.

The mercantile interest to which tho
walker and tallser' of The RECORD now
refers is one that FOR many year has
filed conspicuous and an honorable
place in the trade circles of the city, aud
it affords us pleasure to make mention of
it in this resume of Lambertville's bust
ness interests.
The house is the outgrowth of similar
enterprise originally established by the
late A. b. Johnson at New Hope, Pa,
about thirty years ago, and which con
tinned to do large trade until il was
closed last year. Sixteen years ago the
Lambertyille house was opened as
branch, under the firm style of A. B.
Johnson & Son, the junior partner being
Mr.. Amos Johnson. The senior co.
partner--the founder of the house, led
two years ago and then the present firm
style was assumed, Stacy s. Johnson be-
ing the incoming partner.
In a conversation recently held with the
firm they expressed themselves right we'll
pleased with the development and present
status Of their business. To illustrate,
their sales last year showed n gain Of
about 30, 900 over the year before, aud
thus far this season the sales have been
larger than for the corresponding months
of last year. The area of country from
which the house attracts trade is undoubt-
edly greater than that of any other mer-
camille establishment here. A consider
BILE quantity of trade comes from the Penn
sylvania side of the river. from us far
10 miles or more, aud from the east ) to
10 miles, and IL is attracted by reason OF
various causes
We are assured by the Grin that not
only is clothing somewhat cheaper This
spring than it was last, bat the same
priced goods are Of better quality. The
fact is that the demand from the public
is for the better grades. The house buys
direct from New York and Philadelphia
manufacturers, and it has NO long catered
to the trade of this section that the Sc
lections of stock are not only in good
taste but ample to meet ordinary or ex-
traordinary demands.
The specalties of the house are ready
made clothing, bats and caps and gentle
mems furnishing goods. Each depart
ment is complete in its appointments, aud
each is the recipient off liberal patronage.
In addition to their business here the
Messrs johnson have large property in
terests in Pennsylvania to look after.
Each finds his time abundantly occupied ;
each gives his personal attention to the
business Of the house, and it affords THE
RECORD pleasure to thus outline the sue.
cess that attends their efforts.
