The protracted meeting in. the C. P. Church edit continues With an in* creasing interest. The last d»y of November was all that any people eould have desired in the way of weather. A number ot our country friends were attending Court this week and patronizing onr merchants. Hargrove’s have two hands working night and day to fill orders for home-made work, at Union. J. B. Norman’s dry goods store at Ireland, was the victim of a band of burglars on last Friday night. rv People may abuse cats as much as they like, but they are very far superior to rats as regular boarders. Only twenty-nine more days and then ihe remarkable year 1881, will have been gathered to its lather*. Next week we expect to blossom out into full blown advertisements, all ovelour local editoral columns. The roller-skate company will receive their skates in a few days and then the fun will wax fast and furious. The Odd Fellows’ entertainment mentioned in last week’s issue, has been postponed until the first week in January._ ''The streets were full ef people on Wednesday, most of whom were in attendance op the murder trial of Hen ry Brenton. S There is but one thing in all the universe to which a man is always faithful, and which he never forgets, and that ia himself. We invite the attention of onr readers to the advertisement of the Buckeye Manufacturing Co, Marion, Ohio, in an other column. The cow s are becoming so desperate in their midnight raids that the pro riety of calling out the regular army is seriously considered.

A dwelling house belonging So Jarret Stilwell, of Lockhart township, and occupied by a tenant was destroyed by fire last week. The several hack linesmaking their headquarters here have all. again re' soroed their schedule tine, and things are running regular again. Lighten the burden of life, make success certain and your calculations accurate, by using Brown’s Iron Bitters. It strengthens mind and body. Since the roads have improved the amount of goods coming into town for our merchants indicates that Petersburg's winter trade wUI be no small item. __' There were more old-fashioned squirrel rifles on the streets on Wednesday than have been seen since Morgan swept through Southern Indiana. __ Everything indicates the approach of the holiday season. It can be seen on every face and feature, and ’everywhere the coming of the Christmas is heralded.^__ A valuable colt belonging to Mrs. If. A. Parker was shot by young hunters on Tuesday. There should be some punishment for this species of lawlessness. _ The quieting, rest-procuring qualities, as well as the far-reaching and powerful curative effects of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, render it the very best remedy kown for lung diseases. An incipient fire in the residence of A. H. Taylor, Esq., on Tuesday evening created quite an excitement for a time, but happily the fire was extinguished before any damage was doneThere is a horrible rumor that a person living close to town sold a grocery house in this city some chickens one day last week and that, the same night they all died with cholera, An examination of teachers for license to teach was held by. County Superintendent Stewart on last Saturday. Only a few applicants were present and the examination was held in the school bouse. What is home without a baby? Many children have coughs and colds just now and should have the greatest care, and a bottle of Dr. Marshall’s Long Syrup. Price twenty-five and fifty cents a bottle.

When another year has flown away, and we sit down to moralise over the past, how many of os will tfaihk that we might have done a great deal more good, if the weather had not been ao insofferbly hot, and the crops so woefully short ? Alt persona who subscribe and pay for the Democrat for one year, previous to January 1st, will be presented with a copy of Kendall’s Horse Book, a work that should be in the hands of every person who owns a horse or expects to do so. A law which compels vaccination should be upon the statute books and enforced. If people do not like it they should move to some locality where smallpox and kindred loathsome diseases are made welcome by the acts of the people. The coming of the winter season with all its attendant hardships should leach to our people the gospel of charity. The poor we have with os always and anything done for their relief is the sweetest and best practical religion the world ever realised. Dr. Marshall’s Lung 8yrop takes the lead of all medicines for coughs, colds, asthma, sore throat and pulmonary eomplaints generally. Cali on your druggist and try a bottle of

The Democrat, in common with an army o’ personal friends, wishes him well in hie new field of labor. No more excellent gentleman exists than Mr. Palmer, and his good fortune iu this respeqf is well"deserved, .

Christmas is already excitiug the juveniles, and our merchants and dealers are wondering what they will boy to please their customers of all ages, sexes and conditions. The com ing holiday season will perhaps be the most interesting the world ever witnessed, and there will be a great deal of money spent in gifts and making hearts happy. We will say this early in the season, that our readers who Intend makingChristmas presents will be enabled to obtain the most desirable lowest rates, by watching the advertising columns of the Democrat. because our business men who have anything nice and cheap to sell will be sure to advertise them to let the people know where they can get what they want for a little money.

Never In the history of this town has suoh a stock of holiday goods been offered to the people. It is said that Chas. J. Guiteau, the infamous assassin of President Garfield, visited this place about two yeareago as a detective In the Interest of the pension department, secret service work.

COURT HOUSE CU LUNGS. The Court Bouse yard has been lull of people all week. Sheriff Scales goes to JeffersonTil'e with prisoners In a day or two. , Quite a number of oases have been continued uutil the January term of Court. The court room has been crowded ever since the Brenton murder trini began. Judge Welborn spent Sunday with his family and'returned. to his duties on Monday afternoon.

All physician* in practice are ft q'uired by law to registor in the Clerk’s office. Up to the present but three in this county have done so. Do our medical brethren recognize the fact that heavy penalties are assessed against violators of this statute? Under the new law the Clerk of the Court is required to make a report at the end of each month to the Board of Health of the county of all the marriage license issued for the month last past. The question "now arises, has Pike County a Board of Health? If uot, why not? RAILROAD PACKET. The grade is now ready for the ties betweeu this place and Kinderhook Track laying on the Air-Line road through this county has been com mcnced. The gradors working on the cut at the crossing of Sixth street struck a solid bed.of coal on last Monday.

Card from Rev. 1*. H. Evans. While we tccl grateful that we are permitted to use the Court House as our place of worship^ we feel a great embarnssment iu doing so, knowing that the county officers are responsible, in some degree, for the protection of the buildiug. In our present condition we see no way to avoid it. It we say to the public “We need a house of worship,” we speak what all readily admit. If we say that bv ourselveB we are unable to erect a suitable house, all consent to it. Aud a generous public would not suggest to us that we abandon ail future meetings, as we are not able to furnish ourselves with a suitablu house. The alternative is to continue our meetings under present disadvantages until some providence transpires which will work out the problem for the erection of a house. It is true this thought suggests many ohstaclos that may seem unsurmountable. The inquiry arises, should we commence an effort to build, can we hope tor stieh assistance from the community as will assure success in the efforts We have often discussed this point among ourselves, and have felt a timidity, on account of the past year’s, failure in crops, in appealing to the public tor aid in the effort. We could have erected a temporary building which would have answered Our purpose for a tew years, but we knew that such a buildiug would not be iu accordance witb tbe taste of the people to whom we wished to appeal for aid. Haring no assurance of much immediate assistance, wc have hitherto defered making the effort. We did not wish to go forward without consulting the wishes of the public, and con

n-ary to the taste or our best oitsiens. Bat in making this appeal, permit me to suggest some considerations which ought to hare great weight upon all persons in the community. —1. The morals of a community depend upon the influence arising from attendance upon divine worship iu the sanctuary upon the Sabbath day.—2. Bouses of worship do insure an attendance upon the means ol grace.—S. Attractive bouses of worship induoe men of business, cultivation and Christian principle to locate where they are built, thereby increasing the ipteligence, wealth and prosperity of such places. Hence houses of worship become the exponent of the character of a people. They silently speak to slrhligers visiting the community, and assures them that the name and worship of Hod are revered, and that all that is symbolised by that worship is cultivated, preserved and manifested among that people.—4. During the next five yearn the popniatien of Petersburg will nearly doable. The seating capacity of the present houses of worship is only adequate to the present population. It is the duty of every community to furnish sittings in houses of worship for all its Inhabitants, Hence the necessity- to commence the erection of another house to meet n coming demand.—I. A momenta reflection will convince us that we are not too poor to nndertake'the erection of another house, and that any donation we may make tor each a purpose will not Impoverish us. Self denial and the assured divine blessing upon such benefactors, teach us that instead of impoverishing ourselves by such sacrifices, we are eartehing ourselves. P. H. Evens, Dec. 1,1881.
