A STRIKING CONTRAST. What 1t costs
to sustain liquor saloons is shown by the
following figures lately published in the
New York Epeaing Post,
striking contrast, showing the eff
feet on municipal expenditures of the sale
of Intoxicating liquors, is made by COM
pairing the expenditures of two towns not
far from equal in population-Vineland in
New Jersey, where the sale of liquors is
actually as well as legally prohibited, and
Yonkers, New York, which IDS licensed
drinking places, and seventy shops where
liquor is sold contrary to law. Vineand
has about twelve thousand inhabitants,
and Yonkers less than fifteen thousand
lonkers spends on its police $37, 600 and
the police duties Of Vneland are perform
ed by one constable at the annual expense
of $50 Yopkers has police Judge with
a salary of 81 900 and clerk who Is paid
$500 Vineland has no police court and
needs none. The paupers of Yonkers
cost the town $4,000; Vineland has a
corresponding expense of $500 Alto
gether these articles of expense cost
Yonkers, $53, 500; Vineland, $475. Max
lug proportionate allowance for the diff
ference in population, the government of
Yonkers, SO far as these expenses are con-
cerned, costs more than ninety times us
much as that of Vineland.

4 most outrageous case of highway rob
berry occurred at a point about mile west
of this village, on Tuesday evening. Mr..
George w. Cronce, who lives on the farm
of Mr. Aaron c. Hoagland, in this town
ship, and works the place, also deals in
fertilizers, and on Tuesday had been out
on collection tour, taking In the county
a few miles west of here, in the vicinity
of Croton As he was returning home in
the evening, he was met near Grays old
saw mill, by a wagon, and turned out to
let it pass. Just as it was oven with him
five men sprang from the vehicle, two of
whom seized Mr.. Croncc's horse by the
head and the other three got In his wagon.
Two OF them pulled him backward over
the scat, taking him by the throat and
holding hand over his mouth, while the
third tore open bis vest and took from an
Inside pocket his pocket book, containing
about $500 IN money and two notes-one
of G. W. Ellicott for $279, and one of B
Hockenbury for $50. Mr.. Cronce being
unarmed and taken entirely by surprise,
was unable to offer any resistance, and
after securing the money the highway men
jumped into their own wagon and drove
rapidly away. Mr.. Cronce Immediately
drove to town, and went to the Office of
Justice Riley, where warrants were is
sued for some suspected parties. He was
unable to recognize any of his assailants,
but the robbery was evidently committed
by some parties who knew that lie had
With him large sum of money, and had
laid the plan to rob him. The spot
where he was attacked is peculiarly
favorable for such q nefarious proceeding,
being in piece of woods and some dis
lance from any house. The early hour in
the evening, about O'Clock. when the
affair happened makes it particularly dar-
ing, and it is to be hoped the perpetrators
may be detected and punished to the full
extent of the Law. -Hunterdon Republi.

The Salvation Army.

The Salvation Army.
AS the detachment of the Salvation
Army in this city are attracting consider
able attention, it may be of interest to
give short sketch of the origin of the
Army, its plans of work, &c.
VIM. Booth, an Englshman, who was
brought up'.in the Church of England,
converted among the Wssleyans, aud af-
terward minister of the Methodist New
Connection, left his regular work in 1861,
and became an evangelist. In 1865, Mr..
Booth was providentially led to the East
of London, section Of that great city, in
which the amount of ignorance, vice anil
wickedness is appalling. The ordinary
efforts of the churches appeared to fail
of reaching them, and Mr.. B. resolved to
devise some method to win their attention
and compel them to listen to the gospel.
The methods used gradually shaped into
the organization and system now known
as the Salvation Army. 1t was not, how
ever, until the work had been in existence
eleven years, that the name of the Saliva
ton Army was adopted.
The officers of the Army are known ac-
cordiug to rank as generals, captains,
lieutenants, etc. The uniform consists
of plain dark blue dress, trimmed with
red braid and marked with the letter
on the collar. Officers wear yellow braid
instead of red. The advantages that are
claimed from this uniform are that Z" it at
tracts attention, gathers people at open
air meetings, excites respect in the rowdy
population, and is safeguard against
conformity to the fashions of the day
The sensational methods in advertising
meetings, the use of drums, tambouriues,
and other instruments, are also justified
by the claim that the Army wants 10
reach certain class" drunkards, gam
blers, harlots, blasphemers, thieves aud
neglectors of God and salvation general
ly"-and that some novel means are neees-
sary TO win their attention and excite
their curiosity sufficiently to draw them
to the meetings.
The doctrines taught by the Army, they
claim, are those deemed essential to sal
walton by all orthodox people. They ap.
pear to ignore water baptism, and in this
respect resemble the Friends. They teach
and make prominent the doctrine of
qualification, aud in this respect are
Methodistic.
1t is evidently the purpose of those bav-
ing the dire ction of this organization, to
make it permanent organization, and to
hold the ground secured in every place
where they have begun work.

Public sales of mules have not been
of common occurrence hcreabouts for
some years past. The fret sale of this
kind for while was held at tho County
Hotel last Monday by Sheriff II. G.
Beldon. The drove consisted of seven
pairs of broken and four pairs of unbroken
Kentucky mules. The first pair Sc. up
was broken and found a purchaser in
Elisha Gaddis, of Newark, at 1870. A
pair of unbroken was then put mp and
knocked down to d. G. Rittenhouse, of
Pennington, for $35050. The next pair,
unbroken, was bought by Paul Larue, of
Kingwood, at s337.5o. A pair Of unbroken
was bought by E. p. Conkling, of Elem
ington, for $342 90, and pair Of broken
was knocked down to the same man for
$419. The sixth pair was purchased by
Alex. Higgins, Of Sand Brook, for 1870.
The ex-Sheriff sold several of the drove
at private sale last week, but can still ac-
commodate parties wanting reliable stock.

STOCKTON. NJ Fnh. 8 1855.


Mr.. EDITOR After reading the reso-
j lutions offered by the committee favorable
to Sunday train running, have come to
j the conclusion that trains will be run
without doubt because we have no laws,
either human or divine that railroad
company is bound to respect, and, as |
heard n gentleman remark few days
ago, if the company wanted to run trains
en- the Sabbath day they would run them
and if the laws did not suit them they
owned the Legislature of New jersey
and there would be laws passed that did
suit them. A pretty state of affairs,
indeed.
One of tho speakers in favor ofSabbath-
breaking trains said, it would enable peo-
pie to visit their friends, go to church and
visit sick people. Most of us have more
churches and sick to attend to close at
home than we do attend to. He also said
that men who worked in the shops could
not afford to lose time to ride about ex-
cept on Sunday and then they can afford
to spend few cents to ride on the cars.
A few cents would carry him great ways
no doubt. 1t is said ''the rich can have
a nice ride along the beautiful river,
I'VE would like to know where and how
close they could ride without getting in
the canal or Gu the railroad,) while the
poor cannot afford this. A Sunday train
would be great treat to the poor man =
IL nobody was to be benefited but the
poor, there would not be much fuss about
securing Sunday trains. Now what is
fair for one is fair for another. Suppose
mechanic should erect number of
buildings In Lambertville and on some
Sabbath morning he should set about
twenty five or thirty carpenters at work
to clap. boarding and shingling those
buildings. How long, dear sirs, would
they work before some Justice of the
Peace tif there are any in town would in
yite them to "dry up until next day?
One person said if q minister wanted to
go to Pennington to preach he had to
hire horse and driver, so two men break
the Sabbath, while four men on Sunday
train could haul up one hundred. Would
it be better to have one hundred and four
men break the Sabbath than two?
The conclusion we come to is this-the
trains will run if it pays the company +; if
not, they will not. They do not run for
the accommodation of the poor and sick
and those going to church. 1t is all
" bosh.' W.

The New York financial Journal, The
Public, in its outlook last week says,
eve are told that it is the duty of every
body, and particularly of editors, to put
a good face on things, and to insist that
business is prosperous and safe. When
men have 30, 200 900 gallons of liquor held
In one scheme, and 10000, 900 barrels of
oil in another, and an immese quantity Of
cotton goods in another, and more corn
aud wheat ia the country than they can
sec market for, it is said to be good
policy to cry aloud that there is no cause
for uneaslness On the contrary, we
hold that the only way to escape the
graver consequences of such operati nus
Is to make their nature and their danger
known, so that the loss may be confined
as closely as possible to the people who
have brought it upon themselves
