Not as bad II place rs you might
suppose, Bro. Eicholt1 This may bo
true, but we hayeno positive evidence
Of It. If true it is hnt little fault,
and Snyder county is full Of them.
Northumberland county, that land Of
the free and home OF the politi

faults, but there is not spot on this
almighty earth that Is more able to
make up for 1t big ones.

UNCLE TONS CApIN.--Park & Bal
lard's Uncle Toms Cabin Troupe will
be at Mildleburgh on Friday evening
May 81, when they will render Harriet
Beecher Stoves famous play entitled
Uncle Toms Cabin, This dranG is
acknowledged the finest OF American
productions and is the most wildly
known and most popular comedy on
the American stage to-day. As it has
never been produced here before, we
would say that 1t is perfectly moral
play aud has done more for the abo
lition OF slavery than any other one
agency used against it. The editor
has seen it rendered number oI
times and would rather see il again
that n half dozen snide circuses foi
which we pay so cents admission. II
is not only extremely entertaining
but very instructive, and will give Us
n better insight to the curse Of slavery
