This shows enterprise, All kinds of sleighs, from a backwoods jumper to a fine cutter, have been improvised during this season of sleighing. Paclficlodge I. O. O.

A commi ttee appointed to raise subscription for the proposed railroad will wait upon everybody within the next few days. The net receipts ot the concert held by the Petersburg Parlor Orchestra.

The young men who were so lost to manhood as to throw insults at a certain member of the orchestra while performing bis part on last Tuesday evening, deserves horsewhipping. Miss Ilttie Frank and Miss Katie Hisgen, I wo excellent musicians, played the piano accompaniment at the concert Tuesday night. They performed their parts exceedingly well iudeed. The carrier boy desires to publicly thank tho many kind friends who so generously remembered him yesterday, and Mr. P. S. Withers for the assistance rendered by him in writing the address. Messrs .

The sleighing is excellent, but there •re dm; who,cannot afford the luxury of a cnttH and fast horse. To 3ueb we suggest as a substitute: seat yourself la a reeking chair in a cold room, place your feet ia a bucket of cold water, rise the window for a dralt of cold air, and rock. It is nearly equal to the genuine article. - Messrs. John Wade. Alva Fowler Ben Lagow and Ras. Pinner, all most pleasant and agreeablo young gentlemen of Princeton, returned home last, Monday, after a week’s visit in Petersburg. The young men of this place had better look to tbeir laurels, else these popular genu will carry off several of our beautiful young ladies. The Germau dance, which took place at Schaefer’s Hall, on Christmas night, was, in every particular, a decided success. There were fit teen couples in attendance, ail of urhom enjoyed themselves to the utmost, and went home feeling that a more pleasant time was never spent by any of the participants, and wishing for an early return of a similar treat. . There will be three eclipses during the year 1879, none of which will be visible in the Uuited States. We sre sorry that this is true for it is so much enjoyment to sit np until three o'clock at night with a pretty girl waiting for an eclipse of the moon. Butt we must worry along the best way we can until 1880 when we will have two or three grand ones, including the total eclipse of the Republican party. One day thfe week, while on our way to the Montgomery Mill, we discovered a table on which waa bread crumbs, walnuft-imd-Hawking’ yardTlI^HcueSRurcuriosity and on seeing the Dr. welnquired why it was done. He informed us that it was the custom of Mrs. Hawkins to always spread a table for the birds when their other resources were cut off and that in conseqoence they had hundreds of the little songsters visiting them every day. This we pronounce true benevolence, and are sure that Mrs. 11. must feel happy over her thoughtfu I and generous act. Mr. I. R. Fowler owns the boss sow. She has, at present writiug, eaten only one hundred and seventy-five geese and there is yet another township to hear from. On Tuesday morning Mr.

W, L. Merrick appeared on the the streets with a flashy cutter shaped like a swan. The sow no sooner saw it than she made a full dash for the sleigh and it was ouly after a full two milieu ruu that Billy was ableto get it ont of danger. Ue has given Fowler notice to shut up that sow ere he is templed to administer powdered glass. She will be secured and them swan sleighs can run with perfect safety. v On next Wednesday, the 8th inst, a meeting of all persons interested in the proposed railroad will be held at the court bouse. Mr. Hervey, the president of the road will be present for the purpose of giving the people some facts and figures connected with railroads. All the business bouses of Petersburg will be closed for a portion of the afternoon so as to give every one an opportunity to attend arid participate in giying their views on the subject. This meeting will undoubtedly determine the fact whether or not the road will be built and should be attended by every merchant, mechanic and farmer in and surrounding Petersburg. A big time is expected. The dance given last Thursday night under the auspices of the Petersburg Dancing Club was a brilliant aflfairan d exceeded in every.pafticul >r wlmt even the most sanguine of the club had hoped for. The credit is due the ladies who labored untiringly to give the club a treat in the way of a supper. A. table was set in the hall and was covered with everything good to eat. At twelve o'clock the guests were invited to partake of the good cheer prepared. Mrs. I. B. Fowler, Mrs. J. W. Wilson and Miss Sallie Carson attended to the wants of the many in attendance. These ladies deserve credit fpr their able efforts in making, the affair pleasant for all. After supper a few dances were indulged in and then an adjournment was called when all went lb their homes feeling that the occasion hud indeed been one of pleasure. Election Notice. - Notice is hereby given that at a regular meeting of Pike Lodgh, No. 384.1. O. O. F., to be held at their lodge room in Winsiow, on Saturday evening, Feb. 2. 1879, there will be an election held to elect three trnstees for said lodge. H. C. Ashby, Jan. 2. 2w. Secretary.

The Petersburg Parlor Orchestra, agreeable to notice in last week’s inupt'easion of the Democrat. treated our citizens to one of the beet musical entertainments ever given in t^le plac'*< The audience was much large# than the moat sanguine members of the orchestra could have hoped, for aud the numerous eucores attest the fac| that the large audience justly apprecia-; ted the entire performance. The eoi* net solo by Mr. Matt. Frank Tarns the masterpiece of the evening and elici ted rounds of applause. Owing to the fact that Mr. Frank was suffering from a sore throat he was prevented from answering, the enthusiastic encore he received. Another excellent feature of the oonoert was the piano duett of Mr. Henry King and his daughter Lillie, Although this bright aiid sparkling little girl is but five years old she executed her part ol the duett with remarkable exactness, and at the conclusion received a merited encore. Mr. John Young in the song of “the poor old tramp” was up to his usual standard aud brought out, as he al ways does, rounds of applause. The other futures wore par excellenoe. Aregards the orchestra proper, H needs no especial notice as our citizens are well acquainted with the proficiency they have acquired, aa most of us have been recipients of musical favors at their bands. We trust that the orchestra may soon again conclude tdt give another performance in the Hall, as we feell assured they will be greeted by a good audience. We clip the following from an article entitled "Accepted” published iii last week's Impression of the Press: _“|t looks to usJbat any paper with, sinJh a circulation as the of tW Zte'iHocrut claims to have, ought to be able to pay its compositors what the office owes them, and not have the editor say to the foreman: “If yon sue me I will acknowledge that I owe yon, but what good Will it do you, as 1 have nothing, aud if you leave me before the delinquent list is put up in type I wilt not pay you a cent!’" The above insinuation in regard to ourselves is entirely void of truth, and utterly without foundation like all the other statements made by the liar of the Press. Wc have never at any lime as our books will show, been behind two weeks with our foreman, nor any other employe in the Democrat office, and at all times stand ready to comph with any contract we have or may enter Into. Mr Murrell is bo exceed

iugly fond of telling falsehoods that if perchance a truth escaped his lips> choking or something more serious would immediately ensue. Once when he was about fourteen rears old he, in an unguarded moment, was betrayed into tailing the truth iu regard to gome property that had been stolen from the storehouse of Mr. Wm. Hawthorn. lie repented,ittn bi'terness of spirit as soon as he fully understood what he had done, and raising his right hand to Heaven, rowed, it his life wus spared, he would never do it again so long as he lived, and had the vow copyrighted next day. He still lives and bis life attests the unbroken sanctity ot his vow. •‘Couldn’t See It.” A few days since a gentleman stepped into Critlenton's, No. 7 Sixth avenue, and stated that he had used llala’s Honey of llorehound and Tar in his family for the last torn- months, to the entire satisfaction of them all, for the care of Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness, Difficult b> eatbing, or any Affections of the Throat, Bronchial Tubes And Lungs, leading to Consumption; but, moving to the east i side of town, he went to the nearest druggist for a bottle of this article, when the druggist attempted to palm off some article of his own manufacture in place of it; and, using here the gentleman’s language, he told the druggist he ‘•couldn’t see itor, In other words, he was satisfied with “Halo’s Houey of Horebound and Tar.” and wanted nothiug else, as he had already used this, and knew by experience that this article would give almost immediate relief, and in a short time would effect a permanent cure of any or all of the loregoing complaints. We have our eyo upon the above-mentioned druggist, and trust should he read this it will be a lesson to him and to all other druggists to furnish “Hale’s Honey of llorehound and Tar” when called for, and retain their customers, tor the reason that any one who nses this article once will have notbiug else. Sold by all respectable druggists at 50 cents and $1 per bottle. Depot, 7 Sixth avenue. Great saving to buy large size. Depot. Crittenton’s, 7 Sixth avenue, New York City.

That Press Editor. The editor of the Frees continues bis nonsensical prating regarding the Auditor's printing, and requests ns to answer certain assertions which he in his sillj manner asks. We hare long since given these same questions such answers at we think necessary, and do not intend to waste further time on each idiots as Harrell and his lik. What we hare said in the past, we say now, and shall repeat in the 'nture, when it suits our convenience to do so. The law regulates our fees, and expect to charge just what it allows ns for the county printing, and shall not follow the precedent laid down by Republican office-holders and editors in charging double, and in tnauy instances thribblo. When tne publisher of the Press imagines he can make capital out of his silly propositions, kuowihg, as a matter of course, that they will not be accepted^ he has flung the wrong rag to the breeze; and bis time, worthless as it is, could be put to nineb better use. We are now through with the Press, as we do not deem anything written by Harrell as worthy a notice in the columns of the Democrat, as it would only be giving publicity to the sayings of one who is known aR the most notorious liar in the State. Dipthena. The following paragraph is clipped from the New York World of the 6th instant. If it l>e true that sulphur is such an efficacious remedy against diptberia, why do not the medical fratcruity make use of it ? Let the doctors answer: ' Sulp'frftr for Diptheria.—Mr. John W&: rOs ja ruffian ft Tboanqoryn he, pbrset, writes 10 the London ‘Times that alter two eases of malignant dips Iberia out of some iiiuo or ten he had keen called to attend and proved fatal, the mother of a sick child showed him tot extract front an American paper concerning a practitioner who used shlphnr to cure the disease. Accordingly he used tuilk of sulphur for older children and adults, brought to a Creamy consistence with glycerine. Dose—a teaspoonlul, or more, according to age, three or four times a day, swallowed slowly, an application of samei to nostrils with a sponge. Result: he did not lose a case there or elsewhere, and he succeeded in saving life when the affection bad almost blocked the throat. Nose Bleed. The Scientific Americau gives the

following novel ptanior cnecKing bleeding at (he nose: “The best remedy for bleeding at the nose, as given by Dr. Gleason in one of his lectures, is iB the vigorous motion of the jaws, as ift the net of mastication. In the ease of a child a wad of paper should, be placed in its mouth, and the child should bo instructed |o chew it hard. It is the motion of the jaws that stops the flow of blood. The remedy is so simple that ninny will feel indim-d to laogb at it, but it has never been kown to fall in a siugle instance, so it is said, even in very severe cases. A Simple Insecticide. Ilot alum w ter is the best insect destroyer known, Put the alum into hot witter and et i.t boil till it is all dissolved; then apply the solution hot with a brush to all cracks, closets, bedsteads, and c the:- places where any Insects are found. Ants, bed bugs, cockroaches anil creeping things are billed'by it, while there is no danger of poisoning tl e family or injuring the property by its use. CORRE5 PONDENCK From Union.
