No life anywhere The two big hotels of tho Switzerland appear to Do desert ed. and the proprietors of tho sinaller- nlthotigh doing what one might call a fair business, are nearly so. Along the, line of the "raging" all Is quiet, and tint ror tun occtiiar prooi ono wouni ai most doubt that wo really had two lines of railroad communicating with the outer world. Whether all this cltil- ness Is owing to the apprehensions felt concerning thu results nf a probable change lu the administration of minim al affairs, or If- the consequence of the Centennial Exposition, for which some of our citizens have done so much, It would be hard to tell. Suffice It to say that tho Mauch Chunk of to day, does not resemble the Mauch Chunk of a year ago, dull ns times were then con -sldered to be. Indeed it almost seems as If the Switzerland bubble wero play ed. But for the presence of crowds of suspended railroaders victims of ava ricious stockholders and official misman agement there would be scarcely any lilt! at all.

Monsieur Frank Deborde, whoso place of business was closed last evening for distress of rent, upon being subsequent ly confronted by parties who had left valuable watches or Jewelry In his bauds for repair, and unable to tails factorily account for the same, was this (Thursday) forenoon arrested on a charge of embezzlement preferred by Henry rrovince, and nuerasiiurt Hear ing beforo Esquire Laurish, was by tho latter, otimmltted to castlo Breneiser in default of ball.

There is a pret ty fair crop of wheat and rye, but oats are nothing ; also a very poor crop of potatoes.

The peach crop has also suffered some for want of rain, still there aro now prospects of a pretty fair crop. Yesterday it rained all day, be ing the first in seven wee-is, that Is, any rain to benefit tho crops, etc. Well Harry, put my name down for tha Ad vocate: for ono year commencing with next (Saturday's paper. iteiueuiber me to all inquiring menus.

August Meteor. Tho time for tho annual display of the "August meteors" Is fast approach liig,and It behooves thoso who delight to ga.o at these celestial fireworks to pre pare for their appearance. These visi tors from the Interplanetary regions commenco to enter the earth's atmos phere about the Gth of August, and from that tlmo until the 18th are visible In varying numbers. The period of maxlum display occurs generally on the night of the 10th of August. They do not come In such countless multitudes as in tho November meteors, but their appearance may be relied oa with cer tainty. The August meteors very rare ly miss their appoinlmoDt on the night of the 10th of August lu each succeed ing year, and may be seen of all degrees of brilliancy fiom the globo of light, outshining Venus or Jupiter, and mov ing across the firmament In stately grandeur, whilo emitting a fiery train, to the hardly perceptible thread ot sil ver light of the smallest shooting star. Their advent will doubtless be watched for by astronomers with Interest. ii 1 Ilellglous Notice. On Sunday, August Ctb, at Oj a. m., Rev. S. Neitz, P.
