Jjf . :rSfc- ■ V-l Dr. Alexander YoungWe learn Irom Uie liiitory of the 1 fWinlr ll.'.l H..nrv V.lllnp llif j.rmn(l J : father of the Doctor came to the County 1 [ in 1713. He nerved as Judge of the ' ■ i court for many years, and as a member 1 [ j of the legislature ten. Judge Young 1 ' was an externum landholder, deputy 1 j surveyor, and surrogate from 1743-1738. ' | None performed a more usefnl part than 1 j he in the early history of thp bounty. 1 I All the Tonne's of South Jersey drsrmii- ! , eii from hira. I)r. Young, wait one of Urn Uio children of SvlU Youug tlw auu ' of the o-igin&l settler. The family live ' in the Upper Township then, anil are ' now principally residents of that divia- 1 ion of -the eeiimy. The Doctors mother I was a Bteelman. ot a family comprising c the first inhabitants of Upper t'apc May. r Of Uie ten children of Beth and Ids wife t Martha, but four arc now living, Abbic, r Isabel. Martha and the Doctor. Both d families arc, however, long lived as a '' rule. Alcranilerjftrat saw the lighf on March " 27. 1838 on llio parental estates, near' ' Ileealcy's I'olnt. He had only the coin- 11 mon schools of the place to 'get an cd- ^ ucaUon, but he atleudad wt we|l to his. 1 itudiea that he was able to rmer Jefferj son Medical in 1857 and graduate after P the usual course of study. Two years 11 luter ho-marjied Miss Josephine Bennett, ■' Court House, and a siaier of Mr* Joua- " than learning recently deecaseil. Dr. n Young began tlio practice of medicine '• at Goshen where lie soon won a large practice about surrounding country, and during tatrLd'cars, sinur "3, at the Unuri House, where a large (tBIibor of patienta u find in bim tile necessary skill to alleviate tueir physical ailments. During the thirty years of hia devotion to the de- ti roands of the medical profession the Doctor has never declined to visit the sick, be they rich^or poor over keeping in mind and practice the high and noble aims of hit cslling to consider first' the a great duty of lessening human misery * and suffering. If tho Doctor was to-day swift to mark the indebtedness of those who are owing him for medical attend- 1' snce he would be, so far aa the account a would go, acveral thousand dollars the * richer, but lie never forced a oollection. d preferring tit lose the money, or if oirru instance warranted giveliis services free to ail and any who were too poor to f pay him without inconveulence. * Hit reputation for helpful generosity are household words about the Middle t Township where lie is so well and favor- I : ably known. He numbers his friends

among tbe poor, and since hts late afflic- b they have been most anxious for speedy recovery, showing their solicitude by many thoughtful acts very gracious to the patient sufferer. Here * the Doctor is fathering the bread which »' was in the long ago to the present time t' cast upon the waters. He early became d a member of the M. E. church, uniting P lirsl w ill. Hie people at -Petersburg. As * a faithful .Sunday School worker and lately a claas leader his seal and devotion H the great cause of tbe church are well c known, nia purse lias over been open to lier demands upbn it. and it may be h truthfully said that he give* liberally and r disinterestedly of the means which the luu given hlmas the steward. So- ' ria ly Doctor Young is what Americas ' call rlerer. Hit hospitality la proverbial, 1 ami his friendships wsrm and lasting, rjuick to forgive an injury, alow to an- ' ger, and devoid of any spirit of revenge, lie has the pleasant reflection that his enemies, if he ever had any of more than a day, are ail dl'aymed, and have ' become hia fast MendHe has ever been one of the truest and '' ftauneheyt ot Itepublicans. and his 1 name has often brought dismay Into the 1 ranks of lite political opponents. So 1 much confidence was had in his hold upon tbo stalwart Republican heart that he 1 was nominated ami elected by a rousing 1 majority for the legislature in 1872. serving hts constituents well. For fifteen years he served on the County Board of Freeholders, and during his long Incumbency of the office was a leading spirit run is president. Doctor Young is among those who have given attention to the cultivation ot cranberries in Cape May, and we bej lieye with success. He owns a very valuable bog on the Goahcn road, this fatufafforded a pleasant occupation, reller. iiglhc mind from tho personal cares and perflexllies as a family physician. • Jn the department of recreatfon he "has been a true fisherman, another proof of bit gentle spirit. No Ill-tempered, 1m- . petuous, or thoughtless man can ever become a succe»Bfuljnglcr. He must have the grace of psticndp and cheerfulness to succeyd here, end it's much to sny one's credit when it is said of him that he is a real fisherman. The subject i f our sketch knows bow the sews Inhabitants llvft amfgrow, when they come, and when Tamil, bence all he- has to do when tbe signa are favorable is to get his lines ready, and with plenty of bait and a genial companion lie generally succeeds in getting to the sounds or Drum beds anil making the first catch of e the season. In bis younger days no one could do more I ramping then he with y dog and gun. It there was any game it

had to capitulate toKls skiilx! a marks - taut In short order. ^ He has but one child. Mis* Josephine, bright and1 promising, slid in . bee teens. As msy be suspected she it very tenderly ai l ached to her father, and be. to her. She is the only child and the wraith of , , parental affyellon is bestowed- upon her in ail its fullness. We intended to remark in another. ^ place that as a physician Dr. Young was ; Q a spcciaiiyt Jn pneumoniaand diphtheria. . having been most snoreseful in treating . ca*ea of throe dangerous diw-aaes all ! along his years of practice— Nu doubL. n but that the prayers ami temler care of those about his sick room will lie the j, means of restoring liim to spc dy' health ' w and uaefulneas. How competition Was Made to >' p«y- t< A merchant relates the' following cx- , periencc: "Wheal was a young rr.an I " set up in trade and took a store where £ there was not another within a quarter of a mtic, thinking I should do more wlwie there were no others, but at the end of the year I found all that I bad h made could be put In my eye., I sat ° down one day, thinking my lot was a A migtity hard one, and told my clerk that ° I was going out for a while, and tliat be " amstkcepaaharp-lookmufurcualomcM- " I went down town, and looking around. " found Uiat two or three stores were do- ^ a very good trade near together, and ' in passing one of these stores I found ' the owner quite a talkative man. We '• put our heads together, and la the cours® of a week the store directly opposite his ®' received my stock in trade and a coat of point on the outside, while his re- '' eclvcd a coat of green. The first day 1 el nothing but stand at tbe door and at the green store, and my '' friend stood on his steps iookine ditto at " Aa pooplc came in 4 commenced al sunning downHhe crecu store, and the w latter always run down tho bine, so tbat m us both we built up a trade c tint was quite lively, i'rmptc having A purchasing of one or the other, we grad- ' uaily grew rich, and at the end of some years wo settled up. and I found w that opposition, or what answered tiiat . name, liad brought custom ami had « made my fortune." — Dry Oooda ChroniNeoded Moro Thnn Ono.

Must so th* Whole Elephant. 7? V A New Englaoder, who was a wag. re kept an eating-house near Boston, where he used to say, you could get any. cj tiling that was ever made to eat. One c day in came a New Yorker, and stepping up to the bar asked the landlord t: what ho would give him for his dinner, a "Anything, sir," said the host, "any- b from a pickled elephant to n f bird's tongue." * u "Waal." said tbe New Yorker, eyeing q "I guero I'll take a^plccc of pickled tl eleplisnl." „ "Well, we've got 'em— got 'em all p ready right here in the housej but you'll r have to take a whole 'un, 'cau-e we „ cut '«m." 7* n The New Yorker thought he would t take sotne codfish and potatoro.

I don't intend precisely to throw the Virgin Mary overboard— and by that I mean the Constitution I will stick It In the hole if I can These rebels are violating the Constitu. to destroy the Union; I will violate Constitution, if necessary, to save, the Union; and I suspect-.

Two girls qbme forward slowly— for Iruo.Orieutol la ufiverin a hurry— \ their chajaU, or itewl covering, , *nd bow to the assembled gtiestx For \ some seconds they stand quite motion- , lefts, then the eyelids begin to move, and , by degrees each inusc.lc comtdencee to . quiver until every limb is affected. Although all present, with the exception of myself, had seen this a thousand times before, no ttoonerTnffl the dancers advanced .thSM riho attention of every one was engrossed.-wThp performers j then bent their bond* gradually-back i until they almost touched the ground, j then they raised themselves, and leaned t forward until they sank, down upon their Knees, still quivering in every mnscie, until at length they lay prone the ground. For some seconds they remained there quite motionless, as though animation were entirely suspended. The first sign of returning . life waa to fnovo the Midi from Alt'., tfl side, the quivering motion recom- j mences, and the dancers assume their | upright position and break into a sort ; of badly danced polka. Tltis native dnnciug might almost be called a song illustrated by gestures and posturing rather than dnuciug in oitr acceptation of the word. These song dances.are . usually accompanied by a din of tomplaviHi by Hie lingers only; the sounds produced are monotonous, and not pleasing t» European ears; tho movements of the dancers are marked by 1 castanets. Persian music and singing are very different to our Western ideas 1 of hominy, and the rendering of a song ' ridiculous, being more a series of- c grimaces and contortion* than melodious intonation. Yet Persians rave about their music just as they do about Hie swehtliess of their fruits, the beaiitv of their women, the fertility of their '' country, and I have no doubt that our 1 music is just as discordant to their ears theirs is to ours. Night after night " Tthey will sit tip fit these and irinittttr * entertainments, which to us would tie 1 tedious, and this music and singing will lurid them breathless atul unwearied.

Itiaxnwered with a counter of gold cloth, embroidered in colors, the centre representing King Louis XIV., without his wig, a large n -merald on ids hreast.a sapphire in his it hair.
