A, VOICE FROM GLEN ROCK.
Glen Rock, Nov. 22nd, 1871.
The people-of Glen Rock are get
ting greatly aroused about our friend
Robinson. Tf he is dead, we as a peo
ple would like to be informed of it,
but if he merely sleepeth we think it
about time that he was awakened to a
sense of his duty as a contractor to
carry the United States mails. For
the past five or six weaks our mails
have been shamefully neglected and
instead of getting them Wednesdays
and Fridays, as we look for and de
mand as a right, they dwindle along
all through the week, and sometimes
we don't get our Fridays mail until
Sunday. Last week the mail came
out on Wednesday and it took all the
rest of tho week to get back to
Brownville, owi ng to the scarcity of
corn I suppose. It is a disgrace to
any man or to any community to suf
fer such piles of bones to drag over
the roads when horses are so plenty
and corn but fifteen or twenty cents
per bushel. We hope in the future to
see our mail come a little more regu
lar and save further trouble.,

cient force to knock one of the horses
down, but nothing daunted, they
gathered up and run round into
Mear's brick yard, but finding the
ground frozen too hard to make
brick they concluded to stop and rest.
The injured parties were doing well

difference. By their works we shall

GRAND RALLY!
Oysters! Ice Cream! Confection
ary and one hundred and thirty sev
ei other things which no mati ever
dreamed of!!
To get in, - - - 25 cents.
To get out, - CQ?Your pile.
It is to be hoped wires- these pious
souls get all the piles t&ey will not be
unmindful of tle poor in their midst,
who have not even a pile of wood to
keep them warm this cold weather.
"Inasmuch as ye do it unto one of
these, you do it unto me."
A word to the public. I have
turned' ove? a new leaf, and wish to
inform the pu-'bltc thaS I can and ivill
sell goods- a little cheaper than any

Last Monday morning J. P.
Burdick, while crossing the'rlver on
the ice, broke through with his team
in five feet of water. He did'nt slnfc,

It is hard to tell which is in the
greatest demand in this vicinity, Col-
happ'B tobacco or the Advertiser.
Everybody wants to subecribe for the

vertiser, and as for tobacco, you
can get it at all the 3toree in town.
Best Soda at Brown's. 10 cents

ST. DEROIX ITEMS.
The weather is extremely cold at
this point for the time of year.
Marshal Hoyle was in town lasi
Wednesday making arrangement
for sinking a shaft at the coal mines
in this city.
We had the pleasure of receiving
our genial frlead Wm. Footner, on
Saturday last. He is one of the prin
cipal owners of the coal mines,
and the old gentleman means busi
ness Ouryoung frl-end H. H. Wood
ring, (he of the blacksmith shop) led
to the hymenial altaron Sunday, 19th,
Miss Taylor of Missouri. Long may
they live and play on a harp of a
thousand strings.
Trado is very good in St. Deroln.
Shark & Collar of our steam mill are
doing a splendid business, grinding
about five days a week. Our mer
chants are kept busy all the timo.
They are paying 20 cents per bushel
for corn and four dollars per hundred
net for pork.
SHERIDAH ITEMS.
Dr. Oppermann's wife is very
sick. She is at her father's in Bed
ford precinct.
Mrs. Breigle is also very sick not
expected to live long.
The weather is cold and people
are generally healthy at present.
Corn Is mostly gathered and
housed, though there are somo large
fields outj'et.
One night last week there was a
dance not far from Sheridan. The
only stimulant to be had in town was
one bottle of California Vinegar Bit
ters. The boys not being aware of
the nature of the bitters partook rath
er freely. The consequence can be
guessed when we say they came to
the unanimous conclusion that Dr.
Walker made a mistake and put Cro
ton oil, instead of whisky, in his bit
ters. If you wish insurance that Is in
surance, call on Wesley Dundas. He
represents one of the strongest com
panies in the world one that has al
ways paid losses promptly, including
those by the Chicago fire.
