and it was celebrated in way that frightened
the ghosts of Hallow Eve. We had pole
raising in the afternoon, which was difficult
task, owing to its length and size. Squire
Hyatt had charge of the raising, in fact he did
most of the work, being a mechanic and an
old sailor. Hundreds of people witnessed the
raising, nearly the whole village being out.
The sun went down before the pole went up,
but the boys said it must go up, so at $50 the
, work WA was ID dong raised, TS Sa

The Democrats of Mexico and vicinity,
raised a magnificent pole on Saturday last.
The pole is Of the old jackson variety, and is
100 feet high, large and of beautiful proper
lion. Fully one hundred persons were pres
emit, but sqHe apprehensions were felt in con-
sequence of the Indictment weather at the time
that the effort to raise it might not le sue-
cessful Their fears were groundless, how
ever, and after hard lifting soon had the pole
standing erect with beautiful national flag
attached to the top of the pole, with streamer
on the end bearing the names of Cleveland,
Thurman and Stump. The Westminster Band
was present and epliyeped the occasion with
choice music. J. Wesley Riggs, acting as
president Of the meeting, introduced Wm. H.
Thomas, Esq, of the Westminster Bar, who
addressed the meeting, He discussed several
important topics pertaining to the REDUCTION
of ihe tariff, which made good impression
on the audience. He was followed by Geo.

who spoke of the unnecessary taxation OF the
American people. Both speakers we're ire

Another correspondent writes as follows:
The Democrats of Alesia and the surrounding
neghborhood are becoming very enthusiastic
over their prospects, which they believe will so
abundantly verify itself on next Tuesday by
the election of the Democratic ticket, that
they have determined on Saturday, the Bird
instant, to raise two of the finest hickory poles
that can be had in the neighborhood. Geo

poles, between which will be suspended large

with little force applied throws water thirty

while in use, while the pump itself IS placed
