Republicans, remember the Township elections next Monday, and don't fail to be at the foils. The Vote at the Special Election. On Tuesday the 23d ult. 2,045 votes were cast in this County for Gifford and Cory for Senator and Representative, the Republicans having no regular candidates, and casting only about thirty scattering votes. At the October election Hendricks received 2,823 votes, and Baker 1,361 votes; total votes cast, 4,384. In November, Si'jmourand Blair received 2,796 votes, and Grant & Colfax 1,603 votes; total votes cast, 4,399. These figures show a falling off' of from the vote for Governor, and 751 since the Presidential election a total fa'Iing oif of considerably more than onefourth. They also show that Gifford and Cory received H7 less than one-half the votes cast in this County in October, and 154 less than one-half the November vote an average of 150 votks less this a majority of the voters of Franklin County. If (his result may be taken as ski indorsement of Messrs. GitTord & Cory's course, they are weleome to all Much indorsements.

The White Water Valley Railroad Co.

The suit of Everling against the Railroad Company for damages was tried at ConnersTille recently, and judgment tendered in faTor of the Company. Everling claimed damages for loss of two horses and injury to wag on and harness by the Railroad Company's freight train at the upper crossing at Stavetown below Brookville. There was no controversy as to the killing of the horses by the defendants' N train, and the case turned on the care or negligence of the plaintiff and defendants. V are informed that the Court charg ed the jury that both parties are entitled to the use of the roads at crossings of alley?, streets and highways ; that their rights are the same, and that neither patty can lecover damages if there is any want of proper care or diligence on their part. The jury, therefore, found to this case that there was a want of proper care and diligence on the part of Everling and gave verdict in favor of the Railroad Company. It is a great hardship on the part of. Everling to lose his horses, but it is a warning to our citizens who cross the line of railroad to be careful and constant on the lookout to avoid collision. The result of this case reminds us that since the appointment of Col. Jno. H. Farquhar as General Agent and Attorney of the I. C. & L. Railroad Company, no case has been commenced and is now pending against the roads. All have been settled by compromise. It may be well for those interested to ponder this fact, and consult the proper officers of the railtoads before employing attorneys. Forepangh's Gigantic Menagerie and Circus, -.' Which is advertised in another column, will be in Brookville, Monday, April 12th, and from the good reputation it sustains elsewhere, our citizens may expect an immense sensation. It is without doubt the grandest affair, both in magnitude and varieiy, that ever visited this section of the estern States. It I contains i twenty-five massive dens filled with living wild s " beasts, bes!des Elephants, Camels and Drooi- j edaries. One hundred and fifty horses and an j army of men are required to manage ibis co lossal exhibition. In speaking of it the Pitts burgh Commercial says Forepaugh'a Mammoth Menagerie tin will iiiake its first rand entree streets of Pittsburgh, to-day. 1 hou people will jjaze on this nrinclv disv chitectural wealth and animal life, the like ot which is probably seen but once in a lifetime. It was a theme of praise and astonishment on the part of our Hiruiinghani and Liberty friends, who have already seen the vast collection of rare and curious animals, and the imperial display attending the triumphant procession through their public streets and avenues. Ii is an institution of undoubted worth and merit, and perftnus every feature represented on the monster bulletin boards and in ihelong list of advertisements found in the programmes and descriptive sheets. It is bound to create a furore in our streets along the great line of its procession, and cannot fail to draw crowded houses to the Diamond in Allegheny City, where it will remain on exhibition, afiernoon and itiht, the balance of the piesent week. Tlie equestrian and zoological departments are separate and distinct, so that parties wishing to see only the caravan, can have one hour and a half to inspect the animals before the equestrian and acrobaiic performances commence. We predict a hearty welcome and a liberal patronage to an establishment of this kind by all classes of our citizens. Laurel Items. Our young friend Jacob Secrest has purchased Esquire Burgoyne's excellent stock of Family Groceries, and offers liberal inducements to purchasers. Success to him.

Oat at Night. An article headed "where is your boy at night?' has been going the rounds of the press for some time till it has canght the eye of a wide-awake boy who suggests that some one write an article on "where is your daddy at night? The Spring Trade. A very large Erring trade is anticipated. Tire country is full of grain, and there will be a good demand for it at moderate prices, and as soon as fanners sew that the prospect is good for the new erep they will sell at ruling prices; for if price do not go up before harvest, they can not be expCTted to he as good afterwards. There are good grounds, therefore, for a belief in a good business this Spring. Hog: Cholera. A correspondent of the Miin9 Farmer, in answer to an inquiry as to the cause and cureof worms in pigs, writes: "If the writer will take the pains to give his pigs a handful of good rock salt at least twice a week in their food until killing time, I think the pig will thrive, providing he gives them enough to eat. The cause of pigs having worms is, I think, the want of the pre - ventive salt. Pigs hardly ever get any salt except what they get in the sleps from the kitchen. Get Ready. Old Winter, clothed with hoary frost, has about taken his departure from these regions, and balmy Spring is delighting us. Are we ready? Have wo obtained seeds for garden and for field? Is the ground ready? Hive we engage 1 the trees and vines for a new orehard? or is the old one nicely trimmed? Are fences, gates and roads in order? Are plows, harrows and other Implements ready for use? The working hours of Spring and Summer are too precious to be spent in tinkering- up anything that can be put up in order before P.Uni,iS ui i.iuug uuit. vne muse anve bis if . , ... ,,! , .:-..,. i i ana he who anticipates and makes alt t&ings readj in advance, is the one who realise, the. h;r,Bi, degree ef success. So "Get Ready." uaraening'. Jf notice the ground broken up in many in stances preparatory for" Spring worS. Apropos to Gardening, the Germantown (0.)

Farmers. s ! a rule, are entirely too careless about their jrar- ' den, their whole minds being placed upon their j field crops, stock, Jtc. The women would, in most cases, tie competent and gladly willing to take charge of a large porticn of the labor rfcces?ary to the proper cultivation of the garden, if the men would prepare the ground to their bar?ds. Indeed, it is a fact that those who pursue the cultivation of the soil as their business, rarely enjoy garden products in perfection, jut because they appear to insist upon the error that they don't pay. pay. The Reason. A correspondent who, perh.ips, is a little extravagant in his opinion as to the on :y cause of our backwardness as a business place, yet about right if stated as one of the principal causes, gives the following as the reason; When s person is lwokicg for a place to go into business, and make his home, he by chance comes here. I'e says, "this i9 a very pleasant place; I like it much, and will str.p." He 'inquires around as regards business. The old citizen who is always around ftdviting persons how t make their fortune, but never does anything himself, is the first one he meets. He tells the stranger "this is the werst place in the world: never come here to set up in business! those who are here can hardly make a living!" and so on with every thing imaeinable to discourage him. Some other citizens who are around attending to every per sons business bnt their own, come to him with! all they can think of to dissourage bioi. And so i they drive him away. We have some citizens j who are always going on in this manner: "This j is the worst place in the world; there is nothing uoing; we are gemng poorer every tay; I am going to leave as soon as I can get a little money ahead." Well, they go, and travel from one place to another, and at last stop, get rid of what money they have, and then cotae back to Brookville to keep from staring but still go on running the place dwn. It would be a great deal better for us if all such would go away and never orae back. When a stranger comes here would not it be well to try to get him to stay and go into business, and not drive him away. The Interest of Advertisements. Some people fall into the great mistake of supposing that no interest attaches to the advertisements of a paper as mere reading matter, and independent of their business importance. There could be no greater error; for advertisements are moving pictures of the timet and of local events much less liable to deceive and mislead than the representations and reports to be found in other departments of a paper. For surely it sigaifies little for an editor to arue that tho business of a town is in a most flourishing and prosperous coditinn, if the quick eye of a reader, glancing across the advertising columns, finds that no new business enterprises are advertised, that no large business reports itself, and that old firms and houses are breaking up and closing. We think there is nothing more interesting and instructive than these publications of practical men, the evidence of their work and success, the sure criteria of their energy, capacity and progress. It nearly always happens that an extensive business extensively figures through the press; and a small business, to which attention is thus continually and conspicioasly called, will soon become great and secure. And a large business, which ignores the best and most general method of advancing its claims on the public notice, will certainly degenerate and decay, and a small enterprise, unknown and unheralded, speedily expires. These are opinions which we honestly entertain, and which are suggested by our own habit of estimating the business prosperity and practical progress of other towns. It doesn't follow that every thing extensively advertised, and flamingly recommended on every fence corner and deadwall, is a good thing to buy; but it does follow that the best thing will not be purchased, unless its merits are described and its locality indicated. Everybody reads advertisements, though their general interest is not so generally appreciated. It therefore pays to advertise, if you concede that it is of importance to a merchant, manufacturer, or any other business man, to have bis business prominently brought before the eyes and notice of the public. Frauds on Colored Soldiers. Washixoto'N, March 25. The report sent to the Senate io-day from Auditor French concerning fraucU on colored soldiers in Tennessee, reveals most damning rascality. Although the investigation relates only to the above State, it is known that in official quarters the same system was pursued tn Kentucky and well known persons- were connected with the frauds. A bill is now pending in the House to continue the present method of payment of bounties to ctrlored soldiers, but as it appears there are no guards under the law in force except the honesty of individuals or agents. Efforts will be mads to have the whole matter turned over to the Pension Bureau). Juries. That the present system frf selectinff jurors to try both civil and Criminal Cases js 0pen to many objections, there Can be no doubt. There seni9 to be no regard whatever paid to intelligence, experietvee Or capability, on the part of those Called to serve od juries, and the same man who wQuld fce e,j jb,e tQ t a casfl before a i T .

Print the Laws. Would it not be a good idea to publish the laws? How many can te'tl. when the Legislature, for instance .adjourns, what .s na. hppn aalpri ArinZ. . vv.. . 1 -3 OCOOIUII, and what are the people to know? Bv io sumcient rrounie ana expense, one may acquaint himself with the sa ti e. Yet, how many W(fulddo so until too late? - . r- . i , . j Or how many would innocently violate the same, and incur the penalties, before hej comi ng aware of their provisions or even of their existence? It would nor, we presume, be advisable to publish the full text of all the acts. That would involve too great an expense. Besides, the reading would be so vast an undertakingthat few, comparatively would attempt it. But if a condensed statement of the provisions of every law made during each session of the General Assembly should be made (and the same will apply to other public legislative bodies), and piaced before the people through the medium which supplies their daily or weekly reading, incalculable benefit would result. The law presumes that every person of the age of discretion is acquainted with its provisions. With how small a proportion would that presumption be true. Take the registry law, for instance. What a mess was made of it in the State, 1 and how few voters, comparatively, were jawareot Its provisions, outside of thecitICS in which the newspapers as a matter of news, published it. Had the law been properly placed before the people, many disagreeable complications would have been avoided. To do this will cost something, to be sure. Newspapers could not afford to do the work for nothing. But we venture the statement that the whole expense of thus epitomizing the laws and publishing them in the county paper, of every county in the State, would not amount to so large a sum as that lost to the State by having a State Printer; and whereas in the one case the money is thrown away, in the other it would be the means of conveying to the people information of matters in which they are vitally interested. Large sums are expended in recording these acts in portentous big books, which nsbody ever looks at, and printing them in books of "1'ub. docs.," which are sent at much expense to a privileged few, and read by fewer still. If half the amount were devoted to giving the information to tfce peonle it would bp iJJC r'euIe. 11 wuula e a far better and Wiser expenditure of money The matter is worthy of sertOUS CODsidtTatiou. H-il fayette Journal, Marriage a la Hoosier IVlode. From the Muncie (Indiana) Tiuiis, March 25. A queer wedding came off in -Town' ship, in this eounty, Mr. B. Miller figuring as groom aud Miss Amanda Hartley as the bride. The minister who was to blend two hearts and lives into one was young and inexperienced in the matrimonial business, and, it is snrsnised, approached j tits task with a great deal of diffidence and nervous trepidation. When he arrived on the scene of action he found the happy couple standing at the pump in the yard, talking aboat their approaching union. He at once proposed marrying them then and there, and declared that he would not marry them at all unless he was permitted to perform the ceremony right off. Here was a fix. The parties were ready, but they were outside the house. The guests, also, were ready, but they were inside the house, and unless a connection was. formed between the outsiders and the insiders, it would be rather dry work for the latter. But the youthful divine was inexorable. j and the happy couple finally stood upou the pump platform and were soon made man and wife. The young minister then made a bee-line for home, while the happy couple, returning to the houe, announced to their wondering friends what had befallen them. After the wonder and surprise had abated, and the wedding feast been disposed of, came the task of putting the bride and groom to bed, as was the fashion in olden times. In disrobing the bride there was some difficulty, as sotne of the garments had a very brief narrative, and finally the groom got mad and informed the officiom associates that they could attend to all them little aflairs themselves, and hoped they would at once be permitted to do so. The assistants took the hint, backed out, the curtain fell, and thus ended this queer wedding.
