As pievioosly annoimeed in these col- Tanns, the cucrier ddiveiy postal system goes into operation in this village on the iliBt of Jsnttaiy next. The pzeparatiens for this important event axe ahottt complete.

The names of the carriers as officially an> tiOuno!:d are : Peter Planagan, James Winter^ Charles Wheat and Joe Rosen- crsDce. Boxes for the collection of m&il will be placed at convenient points along the routes and on January 1st everything will be in worldng order. It is essential that the lists which the carrien axe nowengaged in making,should be as complete as poraible and to that end, xeddents of the postal district ihould he prompt in giving their own naraea and address, and those of their family or people residing in the same house with them. Inasmuch as the new arrai^(ements ace for the public con* Thence, the public should meet the post* oSBce offidals half way In their efforts to make the preparations as complete mid tiiorot^h as poi^ble. The residents of this village will also oblige the poatoffice cleila and promote the thoroughness of the a e ^ c ^ by notifying all their coxrra- poudents of their street mid the number of the houses where timy reside, so that let* ten, papers and other sndl matter can be ptopmrly addressed. This will save the <derks the trouble of looking up the address en their lists and will also insure promptness of d ^ v m y . People win also bear in mind, that when the carrier syetem begins, they mtudmakethdx choice b^ween having their mail delivered at ibe|r homes, and reoeiring it at the Post Office. The two gfstems do not admit of combination. The amlority of businem and profesidonal m en who have lock boxes will doubtless elect to oontmue the box delivery system as it has the advents^ o£ enabling them to get their mail as soon as distributed. The great majority of persens, however, wiU dnd it to their advantage to have their man delivered by carriers at their houses. Those who have lock or call hemes and wish to relinquish hiring the same, must give notice of their intention, at the Post Office,as otherwise their boxes win be continued. ABBBtLOlTS BXPBBIBNOK. Two Vi^omeu Wearly Periali In the Cold Kear Monticello. People in the vicinity of Monticello W l remember that Tuesday night last was about as inclement as could well be imagined; besides being intensely cold, the wind howled and shrieked around as though a carnival of furies was being held in the village streets. Sometime between four and live o’clock Miss Emily Yarnell and Mrs. Turberville started to go across lots from the Oster* hont farm, near the Fair Grounds to the LeBarbier place. Their path lay along the upper part of the Osterhout swamp, through brnsl^ marshy places, water and icei After struggling along for some time they came to the conclusion that they had lost their way, and With a cheerless, dreary night before them. What to do they did not know. Miss Yamell was well acquainted with the country, but was utterly unable to tell which direction to take. They concluded finally that the only way out would be to travel toward the moon which was then appearing in the east. This took them in the direction Of Henry Weber’s place near Bateiff Hark, but through the most impenetrable part of the swamp. On they straggled through pools of water, ditches, mud aud ice, for an hour or more until nearly exhausted it seemed they must git^ up and perish* Fortunately they kept shouting for help. John Loring who was passing along the road some distance away, thought the cties preceded from a wildcat, and did not invratigate the cause. Finally Floyd, son of Stoddard Felton, who was out do ing up Ms Chores for the night, caught the signal of distress, aud following .the direction of the sound, found the two women in nearly an exhausted, condition. With Mi*. Loring’s help he succeeded in getting tiiem to Mr. Weber’s where such assistance was given as the oircum* stance required. Mrs. Turberville ;was nearly used up when discovered; but Mist Yamell thought she could have stood it an hour longer. The rescued women were in the most deplorable condition: their clothiug was torn and draggled, and they were soaked from head to foot. Their rescuers were also pretty well used up by the time the women were in a place of comfort. BKBSOBAL. The Misses Minnie and JEatharin Bruyn are spending a few days with their uncle Mr. W. E.

How the Day Was Celebrated at the Varlont Ohurcheg—Fine Mniic at the St. Mary’s Church—Services a t the Episcopal and Lutheran Churches. The mild weather (and cloudless skies which prevailed’yesterday, combined to render it one of the. most attractive and enjoyable Christmas dAFS...of„whioh we have any recolleotion. It was almost a perfect day and large numbers of our people young and old found pleasant and healthful enjoyment invariousoutof door recreation. As on the previous day the canal swarmed with skaters, from early in the morning until late in the evening. We are glad to note the revival of inter- <»t in this excsllent and invigorating out door amusement How that the rink has disappeared and roller skating has sub sided into innocuous desuetude, there will naturally be a return the more healthfol if less facinating sport of ice skating. The perfect condition of the roads, combined with the mild ... weather and bright sunshine, tempted many to take a drive along the many beautiful roads with which this vicinity abounds and the demand for r i^ was so great as to tax the resources of our various livery stables to their utmost. The day was calebrated by appropriate religious services at the Ctitholic and Episcopal churches. At 8t. Mary’s church, owing to the special preparations in the way of fine music, the Christmas services surpassed in musical interest any tbingthat has been heretofore attained. High mass was sung at 5 o’clock a. m., and low manes at 7 and 9 o’clock; and at 10.80 a grand musical mass was celebrated. There was a full attendance at the various cere monies. At Grace church the day was celebrated with a full morning service with a serm<^ and Cdlebratlon of the Holy Communion. Appropriate religious services were also held at the German Lutheran church.

The Senatorial Question Canvass^—Prob- ahle Nominatioiis—The District WiU Undoubtedly E lect [a BepnhUcan. The special Senatorial election in this dUtrict has been caUed for Tuesday, Jan uary 29th. The long delay of Gov. Hill in calling the special election was due to his anxiety, to secure the nommationrand election of ^on, George W. Greeny to fill the positito for the unexpired time. It was of little consequence to Gov. HiU, that the date.was made so late that the district will be deprived of representa tion for over a month. He cared more for the success of a personal friend, and it Was necessary that there be some delay that everything could be arranged so tbit Mr. Greene would sorely be nominated. The democratic machine has been put m line with this movement, and an early convention has been called by them, the date being January 2d. If, therefore, Mi. Greene shall be nominated, he will of coarse r^ign, and a new election will be ordered for the Assembly, which can ' be held the same date as the S natotial elfeCtion. We sincerely'hepe tnat Mr. Greene may ba successful in his aspira- tions for the nomination. The trickery of Gov. HiU will in no way aid him, and as the district witi surely elect a republican as the successor of the late Senator Iiow, we think Mr. Greene might as well be offered as a sac rifice as any other person. Hoa. Peter Ward, ex-Mayor of New burgh, has been named as a possible can didate .'for. the democratic nominatidn, but the Register of Monday says that “ Mr. Ward refuses the use o£ his nam^ and desires it understood that no situation can arise which could induce him to ac cept a nomination, and that personal and busffiess relations preclude the possibUi^ of his accepting even a unanimous noml- aation.” Now with Mr. Ward but of his way Mr. Green will probably find plain sailing and with Mr. Green’s resignation there will cofflf a fight for the Democratic Aasembiy nomination in which Hon. P,»nk Bncktey and Wm. F. O’Neill, Esq., both of Mid dletown and Hon.--jrohn FTinanta and Supervisor Eosencracca of Deerpask wiU be the probable contestants. A-nice family quarrel in the Democratic ranks here will inake the district debatable. The rapublicans need only to come out la force at this elec||on and the new senator will be of their political faith. A host of good namra have been men tioned in connection with the nomination, among them being Hon. I^wis E. Carr of Port Jervis, Wm. P. B chardson Esq., of ' Goshen and Wm. B. Boyce E,q., of WaU- kili. ^ Either of these gentiemen can surely carry tnis district. Let Iherepab- licaus undtrstand that they must make special efforts for the poUingof a full vote and they will surely win. A SPECIAL TEA TBAOr. .
