Tight Lacing.— The London Lancet
. is'out on the subject of tight lacing ; for
it appears that “ spider” waists are again
insisted on by the canons of fashion .in
England as here. There are ho liew ar
guments brought .to bear upon the absur
dities of the practice in question and the
evils that result Irom'it;' Some of the
latter , were set forth in very plain and
unequivocal language, some time ago, by
Mrs. Dr. Lozier, who knows all about
the subject, in an address reported In full
at the time. It is. very doubtful, though,
whether any. amount of warning can
have a counteracting influence in mat
ters over which fashion reigns. Woman,
though allowed by some thinkers to be a,
rational creature, is not a prospective one.
In spite of all that has. been written, ail
that remains to be written, about the hy-'
giene of dress, woman persists in dress
ing V to kill.” Ah! she dresses to kill in
more senses than one. In making a spi
der of.horself/to kill the gaudy flies that
buzz about her, she kills herself. , A per
ambulating suicide is the lady with the
spider waist; Some forlorn damsels have
. done themselves to.death hy strangula
tion with a garter. Paris green does the
business for lt is common for
” rashly importunate” ones to jump off
bridges and feffy-boats» in the wildness
of their despair. - But the lady with the
spider waist has far more method.in her
madness than any of these. The instru
ment of deatn selected by her is the.stay
lace, and her suicide is gradual and love?,
ly, and a blessed martyr is she.
Autumn. —Autumn hasin the annual
whirl again returned, bringing ripe fruits
bool mornings and evenings, and here
and there chilis and fevers. But autumn
is a pleasant season. When the host ap
pears and blights vegetation, the blood
courses more Ireoly in the-veins, the eye
grows brighter, man’s laziness is in a
great measure chased away, and the fros
ty atmosphere, when enjoyed, never fails
to give him more snap, vim and vigor.—
Notwithstanding poets sing of the beau
ties and glories of summer, that must bo
an undesirable country where there is no
autumn to give zeast to man’s enjoyments
and to brace lip his nerves and make him
feel like a new creature- All ball, then,
the joyous return of autumn with its rich
clusters of mellow fruits and its gorge
oit§ly painted forest trees.

A Coxmsß OF liEOTUKfis.— Why can’t
wo iuvo.ncoursoof lectures in this place,
during the coming winter season? If
first-oloss leoturere are secured, and
lectures properly announced, there can
be no doubt that they will be liberally
encouraged, Jf some of our associations
of young men take the matter in baud
and push it vigorously, we feel satisfied
it will' pay them handsomely. To make
the thing'successful'they should go to
work at once, or all the good lecturers
will have their engagements made for
tbe seaaon. . 'The reason that lyceums so
frequently fail is that they defer action
bo long that they have. to put up with
seconder third rate lecturers whbm the
people will nob encourage.
Shot Himself.— We regret to learn
that David Bh'eaffer, eon of Mr. George
Sheaf Fer, of this county, acci
dentally shot himself on last Friday. . It
appears that'a little before noon of that
day, he took his gun"and 'walked up the
n short"distance above
Mr. Joliri-Brlner’a, where he bad been
engaged in the forenoon making cider.—
Hia object-was to shoot fish. The report
of the gun was heard several times. In
the afternoon, after the shower, the chil
dren of Mr, Wm. Hqilenbaugh found,
him'lyirigidbad at -Metz'e foot-bridge.—

Fine Apples.—Mr. Abraham Bradley;
of South Middleton township, plaoedjup
on our table, a few days since, a half
bushel . ’of the finest apples wo have'
seen, this season. They wereof the Tui
pahooken variety, and as beautiful as
targe. In weight several of them were
•over a pound, were within
an ounce or two of this weight. ,We re

. Comforting.—A French physiologist
has been experimenting with thoineand
caffeine (the active principles of tea and
coffee) upoii animals, and affords us tho
pleasing information that tho latter id
twice as poisonous os the former; but
that, to compensate for its inferior viru
lence, theine produces “convulsive move
ments in the limbs” which are not ob
served from the action of cafline; so that
we must either confine ourselves to half
cups of coffee of run the risk of becoming
spasmodic, The comforting assurance is
given, however, of litany
grammes may bo taken by man with
Impunity.
■ fit has been calculated that, in .actual
waste of tissue, one hour of mental la
bor is equivalent to four hours of physi
cal exertion. • By this method of compu
tation it is evident that if the Harvard
oarsman had given their whole-minds to
their work they would only have been
beaten by d second and a hhlf. A more
'important application of the principle,
however, is that if tho eight-hour move-,
ment succeeds, brain-workers, such as
journalists for example, will have a logi
cal claim to call two hours a day’s work.

•. PniLADELPHIAi V
Sept. U, 1869. /-
To ihe-Ediiora of the Age :
Gentlemen ; A friend has called my
attention to a recent article in the J*reBB,
fn.which this passage occurs: ‘ln the
cose of the judicial nomination, the mis
take 6f awarding it for mere political ser
vices' Is now painfully felt. Hon, Wm.
A. Porter represented the judicial talent
before theconveutlon and public apolqgy
will now be made for the error of over
slaughing him in the beat of a partisan
contest.” This article seems'to have or
iginated in some misapprehension, J.
have not been a candidate for any office
whatever, for eleven yearg; I was con
sequently,not a candidate before the re
cent Democratic State Convention. No
person was. requested or authorized, di
rectly or indirectly, so to represent me.
Learning from the.newspaper, that I had
been a. candidate, and , supposing they
knew more on the subject, than myself,
I'caused the proceedinga of the convent
tiou to be carefully examined, and X was
gratified to find that my name had hot
been proposed nor voted for, nor men
tioned during the sessions of the body.—
If I had been a member of the.con
vention, I could with the clearest
conscience have voted for Mr. Pershing.
I have represented with him the interests
of Important clients, and I found him a
man of perfect integrity,, of clear head
and' free from those whims and caprices
which, where they exist, are the curse of
the profession and the disgrace of the
Bench. I caunot omit here to say a word
also of tbe other candidate on our ticket.
Having frequently conferred - with Judge
Packer on m&ters of business, loan
truthfully say that I have seldom met
| any man who has impressed me so much
Lwith the accuracy of hia judgment, the
breadth of his views and the purity of
his principles. In another respect,, he is
a remarkable man, and that is, in not •be
ing fchan.-ed by the acquisition of Vrealth
—doubtless the severest test to which
any-mau’s character can be subjected.—
When a student of law, I frequently vis
ited him at his .little store in Mauch
Chunk, and now after the lapse of thirty
years, I can distinctly recall the same
cordial .greeting, the same, unostenta
tious manner, the same frank and manly
bearing, the same liberal and benevolent
sentiments jvhich have since attracted to
him so large a share of the respect and
affection of his fellow-citizens,
I, am, gentlemen, very respectfully
yours,
packer and victory.
The New York World, one of the
best posted papers in the country, thus
refers to the contest in this State:,
It appears to be generally conceded
that Asa. Packer, the Democratic
candidate for Governor of Pennsylva
nia, .will be elected over his competi
tor, Jomr W. Geary. The Tatter, it
is' true, has the advantage of holding
that office now and of exerting for his
own interest such influence as inheres
in it; but his administration has been
inefficient and he has made himself
unpopular with a portion of his party.
The .Radicals are divided in counsel,
and Governor Geary, by essaying to
secure the friendship of each faction,
has incurred the distrust of all. The
vote will probably'be light as compar
ed with that of last year, at which
time the State polled a larger vote than
ever before. Governor Geary was
elected in 1866 by a majority of 17,178,
in a, total vote of. 597,379. In 1867, at
an election for Justice of the Supreme
Court, the total vote was 534,575, and
the majority for the Democratic candi
date 927. At the election for Auditor
' General, last October,- the total vote
reached the unprecedentedly high fig
ure of 653,155, and the Radical majority
was 9,677. Three weeks later, at the
Presidential election, there were polled*
655,662 votes, out of which Grant re
ceived a majority of 28;898. It is obvi
ous from these figures that to overcome
the average Radical majority of 13,701
at the last four elections will be a most
Brilliant triumph for the Democracy,
second only to the wresting of New
York State from Radical rule in 1807,
and again in 1808. Asa Packer pos
sesses ability, familiarity with the
affairs of his State; integrity and popu
larity, and bid's fair to win the day, in
the face of the obstacle just mentioned.
That he will do this is the earnest hope
of every Democrat in .the land.

Committee or Reception at the recent
..Opening of the extension of Iho hu«

Officers and representatives of the Lehigh
Valley and New York and Pennsylva
nia Pathways, together with our friends
and neighbors of ihe Wyoming and
Susquehanna Valleys:^ lu behalf' of
our lately rural, but always hospitable,
and beautiful town of Towamia, X greet
you on, tbe present occasion with a
hearty and moat sincere welcome.
For loiig years, in common with tbe
region below us, (including that oKtilaa
sic Wyoming,) we have struggled to re
alize-one of the earliest conceptions of
Pennsylvania - enterprise—the opening
of an adequate public communication
with western New York,. As early as
ISIC, more than half a century ago,
Messrs. Brooke and Trecziyulny; com
missioners on the part of Pennsylvania,
surveyed the ground between the (JUe
mung river, at Elmira, and denccu lake
for canal purposes.
.That connection as a canal, fras Anally
realized by the efforts of a few enterpris
ing individuals of the two (States. But
it has been found inadequate and une
qual in, the giant growth of the popula
tion interested; and thence the proud
day, as a railway company, you have
now entered upon.
That humqrous and erratic English.
poet, Peter Pendar, thus satirizes ;
" Southampton's wise sons, who (omui a river
so largo;
‘"Twonld carry a ship, but wouldn't cariy a
barge;
"Bo they cut along side, for small boats a
canal; — , ,
'• Like tbo man, with two cats—one great
’tothe.- small,
."—Who made a lnrgo bole for big Rnss to pass
through,
“ And a little one close by for his little cat
tool"
You have reversed the order of time
in regard, to'this of things. Your little
cat-hole is the canal. But Big Buss is to
bo put through by bail, her ddoent ia
to-dayt ' .
And well may you be proud of the en
terprise \ybloh opens up one of the moat
beautiful and interesting regions of our
whole country. Views and landscapes
which surpass the grand old Rhine itself,
in natural perfection, as well as in stori
ed Incidents and historic associations.—
Every hill-side has its memories of
border warfare; every sunny vale its as
sociations of savage life and deeds of
arms—from Campbell's Wyoming, up to
“ Tioga,” the" Gate,” or entry of olden
time into our ’State for the Red Men of
the west. Your road must, and neces
sarily will, become a most favorite
thoroughfare of travel, as well as of
freight. •
Speaking in behalf of a politically di
vided, yet always a liberal and generous
community, I avoid to-day all political
references; and yet I feel I would not
fully perform my duty on the present
occasion, if 1 did not distinctly and per
sonally greet you, Mr. Pucker, the presi
dent of the Lehigh Valley Railroad, as a
public benefactor in the glorious cause of
education, and in tbe present moment,
os one to wuom we are mainly Indebted

calculated to Increase- the prosperity of
the community,! have the honor to-rep

Gcnry’tt Attempt to Client the Orphnn's,
The aroused solicitude of this commu
nity about tho great charities which are
soou to be placed iu the bauds of new
trustees, gives a fresh interest to a very
startling fact in relation to the Girard
Trust. John W. Geary has, as it is well
known, a contract with tho heirs of Ste
phen Girard to recover his estate from
them from tho city of Philadelphia, to
which hejeft .most._pf his property for
charitable purposes. Geary's stipulated
interest is one-thim of the amount re
covered!. It is sometimes said that in
comparison with, Asa Packer, Geary is
poor* We do not know how this may
be; bat it is certain he has been ardent
enough in the pursuit of wealth, though
not in any of the usual industrial pur
suits of life, as’indeed Che following con
tract proves. His function under it is
not the ordinary one of a lawyer, but
lather that of a contractor in speculative
litigation. We tbiuk It right that the
citizens of Philadelphia, at this time,
shall see him in that character, so we re
publish the contract, the authenticity of
which has been fully established : f
This agreement, made in the City of
Philadelphia on the twelfth day of, No
vember, Anno Domini, one
eight hundred and lifty-seven (1857), by
and between Marla A. V. Hemphill,
Caroline E. G. Peale, and Franklin Peale,
her husband, John Y. Clarke, and Har
riet G. Clarke, his wife* acting by her
attorney in fact, James G. Ciarke, of
which,said Maria, Caroline and Harriet
are the 'children aijd heirs at law of
John Girard, deceased, and Fraucoise
Constance Feneiau Vidal, widow of Lou
is Vidal, deceased, acting by her attor
ney in fact, • Geo. Strobel. which said
Francoiae- is the sole heir at law of So
phia Girard, deceased, and Maria O. De
■Roux, and her husband Lewis De Roux,
and Annie Stepheruia De Lentilhas, and
Alfred De Lentilhas, her husband, and
: Fabricius Dumalne, and Lalmiro Du
malne. minor children of John Devars
Dumuine, deceased, acting by C. La
vaureand Wliiadi, and John Fabricius
Girard, Margaret P. Laidex, and Made
line Harriet Girard, acting by their at
torney iu fact, Alfred De Lentilhas, and
Augustus Girard,.which said Ma
rio C. Annie, Stepbeuie Fabricius and
Salonire Marguerite and Madelaine,’
John Fabricius and John Augustus aro
the heirs at law of Etienne Girard, ’ de
deased, all of whom are the heirs of Ste
phen Girard,.on the one part, and Israel
Fainter, John W. Geary on the second
part, witiiessetb :
Whereas Stephen Girard, lately of the
city of Philadelphia, lately deceased,
leaving a large estate, real and personal,
and leaving an instrument of writing
purporting to be a last will and testa
ment of his said estates, by virtue of
which the city of Philadelphia claims
to be entitled to the same; and, Whereas,
Grave doubts exist of the validity of said
will, and It is proper that the same
should be tested by due process of law.
the parties of the second part have agreed
to undertake such proceedings of the
case, fls may be proper, lor the purpose
of testing the validity of such instru
ment. And the parties of the first part
have Cbusehted thereto, upon certain
terms-and conditions; audit is the de
sign and intent of these presents, to give
legal form and effect to such agreement.
Now these presents testify that said
parties have agreed.
Wit. A. Porter.
First, That the said parties of the sec
ond part will undertake and cause dili
gently to.be prosecuted, suth proceedings
in the law, as learned counsel may ad
vise as requisite and proper, for the pur
pose of testing the validity of said will,
and of its several provisions; and of the
rights claimed under and by virtue of
the same.—Provided that all expenses
attending such proceedings, of what na
ture soever, the same may be -assumed
and i aid by the said patties of the sec
ond part.
iSecond, and in consideration of- the
same, It is agreed that the said parties of
the second part shall and may retain as
their compensation, one equal third part
of whatsoever may be realized as the re
sult of such proceedings, and this wheth
er the same be realized, by the process of
the law, compromise or otherwise, ’ how
soever from the respective interest of the
signejs hereto.
Tit, t?*! J.t ia further expressly agreed
tLv*o the. saidportios of ,ilie second part
shall Jaave power to enter into and con
clude finally and effectually, such com
promises of the claims to which this
agreement relates, as they in their dis
cretion may think to be for tlio best in
terests of ail parties concerned ; Provi
ded, however, that, such compromise
Shall be previously approved by a major-,
ity of the amount of interest iu said es
tates, and provided also, that no part of
this agreement includes or relates to the
intestate property of the said Stephen
