LETTER FROM STEWARTSTOW WIN.
Town DeyelOpHient-AnO Old Lady Rurn
ed to Dcath-StewartstOu
Academy.

Stewartstown is not what might be called an
old fogy town, but in the habits and socill GUS
toms of the greater part of the people 1t is mildly
conservative. surrounded as 1t Is by rich agri-
cultural country it has considerable facilities for
slowly though steadily operating
Several new enterprises have been developed
within the last year, among which which are a
photograph gallery, tailoring establishments and
cigar manufactory. We have now two large
stores, and the increasing business will no doubt
justify the starting of third, which we learn
will be done about the first of April
The railroad enterprise seems to move slowly
and there are now whispers of an effort to con-
meet us with some point of the Maryland Central.
The winter has been severe, and while we write
the sleigh-bells are playing March music to mid
winter tune.
The air has within the Ia three weeks vibrated
to sad tones rs well rs those of pleasure. Our
church bells have been frequently tolled for
the dead, and both old AMI young have been laid
to rest.
An old lady living alone in Shrewsbury was
burned to death few days since. She was found
in an almost unconscious condition, and unable
to furnish any particulars as to the cause of the
sad occurrence.
Our Academy is in prosperous condition. and
in order TO add to the interest and efficiency of
the principals abOrs valuable addition has been
made 10 the work in the shape of collection
of philosophical apparatuScs, including among
other instruments a microscope of high magnify
ing power, designed for the study of botany
The spring elections for the town have passed
quietly, and we are waiting now for the Presiden-
tial nominations for little excitement.

Mr. Tilden is the living incarnation of reform
of the Government, the removal of abuses, the
suppression of corruption, the stoppage of pub
lie plumber, the restoration of Dcmoc ratio
economy, simplicity, and integrity in the
Administration. This is why The honest and
intelligent people Of the Union, Republicans as
well as Democrats, now regard him with feel
ing such AS no other public man of any party
can awaken in their minds. They believe
that n reform of the Administration, such as he
represents and such as his nomination would
indicate, is n matter of The most vital import
ance of the welfare of the country; and there
is nothing that they would welcome with such
Astounding JOY ms an assurance that he still felt
the strength and the energy to.grapple with the
abuses that have iiourished and oyergrown the
&overnment, TO smile them with the blows of
an intellect that cannot be deuded, and hand
knowing neither mercy nor iorbearance

The Presidential Champaign Opening.


The friends of the various candidates for
nomination for the Presidency are begin
ming to sound the praises of their favorites
On the Republican side it is conceded that
President Arthur desires to be his own sue
cessor, but he meets with strong opposi-
ton from the so.callcd Half Breed element of
his party, who seek to draw Mr.. Blaine from
: the quiet of his library into the arena of ac.
tive politics. Their efforts are likely to be
successful. While Mr. Blaine has many
warm supporters in the ranks of his party,
some of the leaders dislike him and would he
glad to see his plume again dragglcd into the
dust of defeat in the National Republican
Convention. Then there is Logan, who is
popular in his own State of Illinois, but who
it is said, has no backing among the capital
lists, and his own purse is too short to carry
on an effective campaign. John Sherman is
also posing as a candidate, but with little sue
cess. There are also indications that the old
corrupt Whisky Ring crowd will make an
effort for Grant. The real struggle, however,
appears to be between Arthur and Blaine, and
it is likely to result as the contest between
Grant and Blaine, in 1890, in the defeat of
both.
The Democratic party seems to be acting
with great circumspection, with IN unex.
pressed but general determination to do
nothing rashly, and to select as its standard
bearer q man around whom the entire party
can rally and elect.
Notwithstanding the reports of Mr.. Til
den's i'll health and infirmity, the most OF
which can be traced to Republican sources,
there is a growing desire among Democrats to
offer him the nomination for the Presidency.
1t is felt that the great wrong done to the
whole country in his person, by the iniqui-
tous Electoral Commission of 1877, will not
be condoned until this is done. Mr.. Tilden
possesses in greater degree than any living
man the confidence of the Democratic par
~ and of thousands of voters in every State
who desireto see the government purified,
reformed and restored, as far as human agen-
cies can do it, to the safe Constitutional paths
in which alone liberty can be perpetuated.
No nomination would arouse so much enthu-
siasm as that of Mr.. Tilden A universal
shout of joy, the prcsage Of victory, would
go up from Maine to Texas and from the At
lantic to the Pacific as the telegraph flashed
the news from point TO point that he was
nominated and had accepted. He gives no
sign. but we can scarcely imagine he would re-
fuse the eacrifcp-for n aacrifice il wnnH oura
iy be-of his ease and quiet, to become the
Democratic candidate for the Presidency. If
nominated he would be elected, and If elected
he would be inaugurated. and would give the
country such an administration as it has
never yet seen. AT its close be might well

IN MEMORY OF OUR DEAR BROTHER,

JOSHUA A. SCARBOROUGH, who died 9Th of
January, 1884.
How sad to our dear mother, the loss of one
so dear, and to us all it seems to me that we
cannot give him up, but God knoweth best
Our brothers gone no more his voice
Shall wake in melody,
No more shall he partake our joys.
That form no more our eyes shall See.
His welcome smile so oft bestowed
His kindly words so oft received,
The love that In his bosom glowed,
We are denied, we are bereaved
Yet memorys page his name engraved,
Preserved embalmed in quenchess love,
Himself we trust in Christ is saved
star of briiancy above.
oh brother, vert thou here again,
TO cheer us by thy smiles of Joy,
Twould soothe our grief twould ease our
pain,
But we are deprived Of him, our pleasures
joy.
The murmurs of the stream would be
Our music as in days of yore,
The signing breeze, the blooming trees
Would still delight as heretofore.
But ali alas thy spirits gone,
The silent tomb thy dust doth keep,
And we are left behind to mourn
Thy absence and TO weep.
