Mrs. Isaiah Emery, of whose illness we spoke in last week's issue, was buried at Lincoln Chapel last Sunday amid a vast concourse of sorrowing friends and relatives.

Deceased leaves a husband and seven small children, the youngest of which is but three weeks and the oldest twelve years of age, all of whom looked forward to a far different Easter than the one rcaliied. They have the sympathy of the whole community. On last Wednesday as Mr. Dick Hicker- nel was passing here with a heavy load of timber, the front wheel of his wagon came off. He was compelled to unload and drive back to the shop for repairs.

Mr. Samuel Miller's horse injured himself on Wednesday last while in the stable. It appears that while rubbing himself, he caught on the end of a staple which was driven through the boards and receiveed such a gash on the shoulder that will inca-patiate htm for work for a while. Work has commenced on tho new school. The old one has been removed from its foundation and the foundation for tho new one is being dug.

Mr.Josilih De Dass and wife. Centre who were attending the funeral of their sister, Mrs. Emery, on Sunday hiat, returned home on Wednesday. Mr. Sam Barnits moile a business trip to Laurelton during the past week.

THE NA1X MIXI WnE.N THE nail mill party first came to Lewisburg an informal meeting with some of the leading citizens of town was held in Mr. Orwig's office, and the nail men were asked to state their proposal. They said that there were three or four towns competing for tho mill, and that they would go to the town that offered the best inducements. They said that they would put in 15,000 of their own money and would want tho land given with whatever gratuity could be raised, and a loan of 20,000, to go into machinery to be secured by a first mortgage upon the entire prop- erty of the company. It was stated by the citizens that there would be no difficulty in getting the loan, and that they would call a meeting and see what could be raised as a gratuity.

stated that they would give two blocks of land, embracing sixteen town lots, surrounded by streets, upon which to locate the mill. The citizens then proceeded to raise a gratuity ol 3,100 by subscription. 15,000 of stock was then subscribed by the nail men, ten per cent, of which was paid a board of directors elected, and a charter obtained. The company then received bids for all machinery, cct. necessary for their mill.

ooiiUDenced grading and digging their foundations, ordered ten car loads ol stone, the most of which are upon tlte ground and put the masons to work on the walls. They have thus begun operations earnestly and in good faith. But it was thought advisable before ordering further material oi machinery to be certain that the $20,000 loan would be subscribed for in order to prevent embarrassment in the future. The nail men propose that this loan shall be subscribed to, to be paid for upon the condition that the stock is fully up, the gratuity collected, and the land deeded to said company, and upon the further con dition that the said loan shall be pai over by the trustee named in the mortgage upon macninery to go into 1 mill. This will make the for the said loan ol 42,500.

The loan first mortgage tion of $100 coupons attached, payable seuii-a nually. This will make a good investment to parties having money to loan, besides assuring a valuable industry in our town. blmseTby accLamatiox. Great enthusiasm and complete harmony characterized the Pennsylvania Republican convention, which assembled at Ilarrisburg Wcdncsd y. The result of its deliberations was anticipated by the unanimity shown by the verious district and county conventions throughout the state.

It was seen then that James G. Blaine was the choice of the Republicans ol Pennsylvania, and the convention at Ilarrisburg Wednesday did Utile more than record the will of the people as previonsly expressed. Yet the fact that Blaine was nominated by acclamation, and with almost entire unanimity, will have, and indeed ht to have, -its effect in othei For there was no worked-up Lra at Uarnsuurg. it was, on contrary, a popular wave that over all the dvkes and asserted spontaneous will of the people here may be conventions otnei states where othciul influence wins. and a program, cut and dried, is put Such conventions can have no influence outside the limits of the states where they are held.

But there is a sort of contagion about genuine enthusiasm, particularly when it is on the high tide of suc-- action of the Pennsylvania convention Wednesday will send a thrill through the hearts of Republicans throughout the length and breadth of this land. Dr. T. C. Thornton of this place has been appointed a delegate to the national convention at Chicago.

AMI.K1C AN LABOKIiKS CHOW DEI) OUT. Not only in Lewisburgh is American labor seeing a cold day but elsewhere. The great influx of immigrants to Shenandoah is becoming a serious matter, and trouble is feared. On Saturday there arrived over seventy-five Italian and Hungarians from New York, and, witliiu fifteen days, not less than 300 of these people have taken up their quarters there. Saturday night the streets were full of them, anil much excitement prevailed.

Shoffner will preach in the morning and Rev. Mr. Dill in the evening. The merchants of Lewisburg have agreed to close their places of business at 7 o'clock P. M.

from the 16th of April until Oct. 1st and at 6 p. M. from Oct. 1st to April 1st.

This is a good move and worthy of imitation by the merchants of every country town in tho State. MiUon-inn The report that Italians were being employed on tho nail mill in pteferenceto Americans because they will work cheaper, is incorrect. Lemuel Shipman, superintendent of the work, has informed ns that no Italians will be employed at any price. Any reports to the contrary are without foundation. A towel, folded several times and dipped in hot water and quickly wrung and then quickly applied over the seat of the pain in tooth ache or neuralgia, will generally afford prompt relief.

Headaches almost always promptly yield to the simultaneous application of hot water to the feet and the back of the neck. List of letters remaining in the post office at Lewisburgh, April 19: Alfred Baston J. E. M. Burns, Peter Hundley, Minnie Katherman, II.

There seems, however, to he little necessity in effecting an organization of this kind unless foreign labor is introduced into our manufactories.

Uiseussiiig this, Assemblyman of Kings county, said: "Ho can be nominated if he so desires, and, in my judgment, he is the Dkt available candidate in country. It deionds entirely upon his action whether he is nominated or not. ho will come out flatfooted and state explicitly that he will accept tho nomination is offered him, he will be tho strongest candidate that can be named." Franklin Barnes, of Schuyler county: ''I not think ho would lie a candidate, hut if desires the nomination he can have it He make an excellent president." John C.

Brogan, of How York: "If he can nominated it would tie one of the wisest the convention could do. Ho is available in every way." Joseph Aekjryd, of Oneida county, said: he can be nominated, but I do not he is an available candidate, and I do not believe he will be nominated." l'atrick H.

Charles W. Brown, of Chenango: "He can nominated if an effort is made; but whether such effort will be nindo or not Is a question." Peter F. Murray, of New Y'ork: "There is the si ightost doubt that ho can be nominated. He stands in the gap of the nomocracy. He is the most available candidate we at the present time, because he embodies everything the Democracy want to go the polls on this time." Charh M.

Allen, of Lewis county: "I don't think he can bo nominated under any eircumstimooa; in the first place he does not desire it, and again I don't tliink the party wants him for a standard bearer." Michael J. Coffey, of Kings: "Tliorewould no question about his election if he were nominated, but he won't acvpt." Michael E. Butler, of Kings: "I don't think he can be nominated. In tho first place, he is not availuble for the reason that has been tried and found wanting; in the second place, he is too old and uuirm. We don't want such a man to lead us; but there not the slightest danger of his ever having chance, for the convention will not nominate him." George B.

Childs. of Nullivll, expressed opinion that Mr. Tilden uid not bo nominated, and said the partv did not want him. J. Ciiauneey Odell, of Orange, echoed Mr.

Childs by replying: "Impossible! Nonsense! Preposterous Timothy W. Jackson, of F.lie, couldn't tell whether Mr. Tilden would tie nominated or not. He didnt think he would take it. and was morally certain that he would not be asked to.

Thomas F. Farrell: think it was a mistake not to have liim four years ago. It was the first issue, and the party could not be worse off than they wore by the defeat of Hancock.
