VALLEY. no; a The Dutch and German immigrants to Pennsylvania .originally settled in the (ountles of Bucks,inucaster, Northapap toa and York. A few families built cab ins for themselves in the Cumberland Villey, along the Susquehanna and in He (ionocooheague, settlements', about Ha year 1760, but there was no great pinker of them in the valley prior to i;;0, They embraced representa- lljsa of several religions sects, among riiich were the Mennoulata, the follow |B of Menno Simon,. a leader of the Baptists of the Netherlands. They took Heir rise, in Germany about the time of He Reformation, and were persecuted by Hq Catholics, who first endeavored to ,Id them by persuasion, and then to lirce them into' conformity, by a re morseless persecution, qfbich called to I^Tl<r^arilahm"eHt'%liß’^lson7-tbrtnrß' mil death. In 1529 several hundreds of Item were put to death at Aisom by fire mil sword, by the Count Palatine; their leathers were beheaded, and many others Carved to death'. ~ Some were chained to ether and sent to the galleys, and others Here branded with hot irons and then lanlshed from their country; William Penn wrote to them that iuiiis Province (seryone could enjoy his peculiar reiig- jus belief without molestation, and the ny was soon opened for their emigra tion to Pennsylvania. T heir first settle neats were in Lancaster county, jftet came the Duukarda, another 1 sect o( German Baptists, singular in their opinions and customs. Many of them were educated by the German Calvinists, bat withdrew I .from them and settled in Swarzenan, in the dutchy of Cieves, be- longing to the IClng of Prussia. They believed in immersion as the only efieot oal baptism; and held their eu'ohaflst, or love feast, at night, for it was then, they said, Christ himself had ordained it. At the same time they washed one another’s feel, in compliance with his example and command. They came to Pennsylvania between the years 1718 and 1731, and aet lleil at Ephrata, in Lancaster county,, where they built a sort of Monastery.— A wrltet'ofejho lastcentnry says, “They ire a qniet, inoffensive people. . They, wear tbelwbearda long, and keep a sol emn, steady pace when they walk, keep ing on right forward, with their eyes on the ground. All their goods are held in common, and they eat no flesh, drink no wine and use no tobacco. The men end women live in separate apartments, or in separate large houses containing illstln'ct.apartmenta.’’ , The Moravians, from Moravia, a conh- try adjacent to Bohemia, came to Penn jjlvanla in 1740, in search of civil and religious freedom. They complained of krivy taxation, and desired to be exempt from taking judicial oaths and hearing gems. They settled at Bethlehem on the Lehigh river, in Northampton county, where their mechanical skill, energy, rystematl® management and economy ioon rendered them conspicuous. Their jilnisters and teachers were men emi nent for learning and piety, anil strict mention was paid to the education of lie young.. Thru:..were otrio.Uy..mothod ical in their habits, and enforced rigid honesty in their dealings. -The solemn ity of their religious worship was increas ed by -picturesque representations of Christ’s suffering and death, and by a variety of sweetestmusio, an accomplish ment in which they excelled other churches of that day. Their bishops and teachers, by an established-rule; at sta ted times every webk Washed ’the feet of lose who partook of the Lord's Supper. Tbe religious . and political troubles which agitated Europe in the beginning of the eighteenth century, together with the liberal principles of Penn, induced a, large Immigration of German Lutherans and Dutch Calvinists between the years 1720 and 1760. Indeed as early as 1719, Jonathan Dickinson wrote to a friend, "We are dailyexpectiug ships from Lon don, which bring over six or seven thousand Palatines. We had a parcel who came out about fl\e pears ago, who purchased land sixty miles, west of Phil adelphia, and prove quiet and induatri -0U3." In 1727 s&fesSelsarrived ntPhil aHelphia with Germane; In 1728 three vessels; In 1720 three, and in 1730 three. Pron);l73o to 1740 «Ixty vessels; and from 1710 to 1755 one hundred vessels arrived at Philadelphia, filled with German em- igrants; each vessel carrying live'or six' hundred passengers! The first Lutheran settlements were nude near Philadelphia and at “the Trappe," in Bucks county; then along the bank! of theTulpehocken and gwatara, near ' the Susquehanna; then, at Lancaster-and York. Rev. Henry Melchoir Mnllenbiirg arrived as pastor of the chui'cles in and around Philadelphia jn 1742; and two years af terwards was joinei| by Bev. Peter Brumboltz, a native If Schleswig- In company with' him cirae Scbaum and Kurtz, students of theology, who at first established schoolslat Philadelphia; but Scbaum soon wentkb York and or ganized a, church, ana Kurtz went to Tulpehocken. Bev. John F* Hnndshqe arrived in 1748 and bed(jme pastor pf-a church in Lancaster. *'! , These early Lutheran hlnisters were, men of zeal and power, bu\ as the servi ces of their churches weredusually con ducted in German, ■ their iifiucnco was confined almost entirely to (he Germans. The resolute adlierenco of tielr peeple to their own language, debarred them from intercourse with those of otter national ities, and between them and lthor Chris tian churches there was very littlesy m puthyand no cooperation. Uhls exclu siveness, which was rega rdei), as one of the safeguards of. the localities resulted disastrously for the children of the GermanB r who lutrned to apeak English showed a strong partiality for the English churches, and anight to conform to. the manners and cusoms of their-more ■ progressive Con sequently the church for yeais last each successive generation from its .rounds, and bad 4o fall back upon the haterJnl furnished .by new arrivals from ahead. .In 11117 a congregation was at Qosbonlj oppen, in Montgomery coun ty, by . ltev. Henry Gootschy. ‘j| was composed of emigrants from Switzerland and the Ehine provinces of Goiniaiy.— Some of them were of Huguenot decent whose fathers' had fled from h’rand to escape the persecution which followed the revocation of’ the edict of Hantt— They adhered to the tenets of the Hcia.‘l burg Catechism, and were, called, >y Others’ “Dutch Calvinists,’’ thauih they, called thclrorganlzation the “El formed Church." During the ensuijg thirty years there, was a large immigra tion of these people to Pennsylvania. 4 They were poor, but mostof them wed religiously educated, ,pnd were Industri ous n'nd frugal in thclit' habits. They be came widely scattered. throughout the state—along the riveiA and oree'ks—in the valleys andamoug l®e mountains, j- They wore debarred' by. language and I habits from the social advantages enjoy ed by theirEngllsli neighbors. In many localities the had /neither ministers nor teachers, nor public worship nor schools, and were destitute of the Comforts aqjl frequently of the necessaries of lifel— Their spiritual destitution awjakened the sympathy of the Reformed.

H reached Philadelphia lril74ti.and becara pastor of me ahurches. at' Philadelphia and Germjmtown, and as a general sup erintehdent visited his people through;' out the entire state, accompanied bj Rev. Messrs; Weis aud Boehm. Qrea revivals of religion everywhere attontlei tbeir'efforts, and the people were meltei to tears of.thankfulness and joy. With in two years a dozen congregations wen organized in Pennsylvania and this wa the starting point of the German Reform cd Church iu America. It was unde; the jurisdiction of the Synod of Hollam until 1703, but subsequenfiy' beoahSe' ai' independent body. There was a class of men called Ncu lacndcr, who were sent to Germany il the interests of the ship-owners of Hoi land and Philadeipnla, and whose bust' ness it was to represent emigration t America ns the panacea for ail the ill under -which the Germans groaned .- They received a percentage for ever? emigrant they enticed on board th Butch,vessels, and: they made tße mos of their opportunities. They were mei of talent—artful, cunning and loquacious In their manners they effected the gen tieraan of rank, in their attir.o and adorn ments the man of wealth; and the; sought by the exhibition of their person to prepossess the poor Germans in favb of a land of which they exhibited them selves as representatives. They spakeo the poverty, the social degradation am taxes which oppressed the people df Ger many, and with glowing eloquence de scribed the resources of the “new land”- there the grain was sown and the. har vests gathered without human labdr there silver and gold were dug out of th hills, and the streams flowed with mill and honey. Whoever had been a ser vant in Germany, in the'new land wouli be a master—the ploughman would be i nobleman and the mechanic a boron,- As soon as their vessels were loaded, th grossest abuses were practiced by th ship-captains. The emigrants were crow ded on board the ships without regard t cleanliness or health—they were paoke into the bold like herrings in a barrel, e were kept continually on deck, expose to ail tho.ohanges of weather incident t an ocean voyage. Cgntagious disease were engendered among them, and ther were neither physicians nor drugs. Thel chests were purposely left behind, or pla ced on board other vessels, that the ship owners might secure the . property o those who died on the voyage. In thes chests the emigrants had their money clothing and eatables, and when then wSji a scarcity of food oh the vessel, manj of them died of starvation. In one yeai over two. thousand emigrants were bu rled In the sea. Out of four hundred who embarked on one vessel, only ond hundred and eighty survived to land au ansi. many„.of Jh.qa.e_ .died, soon after their arrival. Moat of the em-l Igrants paid their passage money in Hol4 land, but when they came to Philadei-l pbiathe merchants demanded whatever] they pleased. Some of them bad been induced to sign contracts in English, and when it was too' late, discovered to their dismay they had agreed to be sold into servitude to defray the expenses of their passage. Even where they had taken precaution to get receipts for their passage money, if they-were unable to meet the. additional demands of the Phil odeiphia merchants, they per mitted to go ashore until ail arrearages were paid, or weie sold into service, a 0 ‘'Eedemptioners” or “Palatines’’ for a series of years. If their chests ever came to hand, they had deen broken open and pluudered-of everything valuable; and even if they were left a brief time in the storehouses, they were rifled of their con tents. Frequently the whole number were held, responsible for the passage, money of each, and all were reduced to the same level of want and misery.fljj'ha papers of that day were filled with adver tisements of the sale of German emi grants, and the evil assumed such alarm ing proportions as to call for the interfer euceof the Provincial government, which appointed agents to see that no more than the contract price forpassago money was exacted from the emigrants. As a class the Germans were industri ous and thrifty, and most of the "Ee demtiquers,” when their term of service expired, were able to buy a few acres of laud and begin life on their own account. Indulging a natural disposition to quie tude and retirement, maintaining their frugal foreign habits, simple in their wants and diligent in labor, they added materially to their own resources and contributed largely to.the general pros perity of the lt came to be a proverb in Pennsylvania that a Dutch man could get riph where another man would starve; and it is probably true to day that theOermanshave doneas nabob os any other class of our population ■ to place the state in its present obmipnnd ing position of commercial, agricultural and industrial prosperity. The Germans were neither so combative nor so pro gressive as -the Sootoh-Irish. .They were content to let public affairs take their own course, aud took, but Utile In terest in politics. When they did, they generally acted with the Quakers, lij fa vor of peace.

Commencement Exercises.—' The an nual Commencement exercises of Dick inson College opened with the sermon before the Society of Beliglous Inquiry, on Sabbath morning, by Bev. William Butler, D. D. In the evening the Baccalaureate ser mon was delivered by President Dasbloll, from the text, “What have wo to do with thee,' Jesus of Nazareth?" HI? purpose was.to'convince.the young’ men before him ill at Christ was the gne’at power to; day In the World, and if they would make thslr lives successful, they must ’thave 'everything to do with Jesus. The Lord -ofrGlory~tard"'been—Ufted~upr-and-was drawing all men to Him. In the swlft nhnnging scenes of their life-work.they would be brought,face to face with the power of Christ at every turn. They could not avoid Him, if they would.— Christ had infused a new life into the world; that life-was what men called progress—and those who stood still, or turned their backs and said; “what have' we to do with thee?” would be ground to the dust. The Junior Oratorical Prize Contest waa held In Emory Chapel on‘Monday evening* On Tuesday, the Senior class celebrated !■ class-day " by an address, poem and essays in Emory chapel,in the morning; and an address; poem, presentation and planting of the’class tree, in the College campus, in the jafternoon. Quite a number of visitors are in town, eausln gtheholels to present an animaled appearance, while many private families have thrown open thelr doors,.to welcome old friends and acquaintances. The address before the Societies was delivered by Bev. B. F, Brooke, of Alle gheny city. His theme was, “The resour-, oes and responsibilities of the Educated Young Men of America.” Ho spoke of the boundless territorial extent of the country and Its topographical formation —of the commingling of all nationalities —of American literature, science and art, as opening up a wide field of labor for those who would be in the lead twenty or thirty years from now. Their respon sibilities would be as great as their re sources would be boundless;, and while the dutlesi of citizenship were imposed rather than assumed, and no man could evade responsibility, yet every man had, within , himself the determina tion of the position he os an indi vidual would occupy. He exhorted young-men to plant their feet hard by the truth ; and closed, with’ an eloquent al lusion to one of Wellington’s regiments at Waterloo. The men were stationed in an exposed position and commanded to reserve their fire. For hours their ranks were decimated by the fire of the.enemy, and three times they sent to Wellington to know what they should do. Each time the reply came back “ Tell them to stand fast! ”l— and there they stood, un won. Horatio C.

Between one and two o’clock a procession was formed, under the direction of Col. John, C. Alttc, Chief Marshall, and assis tant Major M. G. Halo and Cupt. J. V.

The procession an arfiving at the Nor mal Hehooi- grounds, baited, and the Grand Lodge passed through, follOWed by the subordlnatelodges to their respec tive stations, the line being inopen order for the purpose. The Grand Lodge was composed as follows ” "• B. AcLamberton, E. W. G. Master? Eobert Clarke, Sen G. Warden. Charles Kingston, Jun. G. Warden. Alex.,Wentz; Q. Treasurer. John Thompson, G.

Order being maintained, the opening prayer by the Grand Chaplain was offer ed, after which the chairman of the building committee made the announce ment to Grand Master Bobert A. Lam berton that ail arrangements being com pleted the corner stone of the building Is now ready, when the grand master with due ceremony and, in accordance with the usages of the order, laid the'stone.— As is customary' the grand master deliv ered. an impressive and impassioned lec ture. Following him came Professor Wiqkershami' State superintendent of common schools, who apologized for the absence of Governor Geary by informing his hearers that the Governor had been called to Pittsburg to take part in laying the corner stone of a monument to com memorate theheroism of the slain of that city In the date war. Ho paid a glowing: tribute to Free Ma sonry, stating that true Masonry would loud Us aid in educating, the ulne hun dred thousand children of the State, and closed by introducing the orator,of the day, General William M’Candless, of Philadelphia, Who. hi an earnest and elo quent effort dwelWnpon the advantages of education. He said that the presence of such an Immense concourse of people was a tribute to their, intelligence, and showed an appreciation of the necessity for education. The unthinking or uneducated man would stand amid this assemblage and fail to see tbatilrom this source ilow the rivulets that make the rivers on which float the arks of our prosperity. History teaches the Intelligent man that the school is the epitome, of mankind ; that in it the seminal germs are planted that fructify into fruit; that in it the fallow mind is ploughed and the seed sown ri pens Into a luxuriant harvest. Education here may uplifti some; nameless modern vi IT ago Ha ra pU oil to rttiTgreatneas of “the' original. Well' regulated system of edu cation is the rock to build all greatness. Without it nations do 'not live a natural life, hut crawl into a premature grave.— The experience of the ancients was that education was the life blood of the State. The scholars of Greece, Those wierd mag icians of the mind, come.dowu to us still bedecked with their laurels of knowledge. Into their works the modern student delves and finds diamonds of the mind in more than a Goloonda profusion; The operation 1 of theih. made soldiers and statesmen, who iuipressed Greek civilization upon thesurrdunding nations. Enlightened statesmanship, established mon schools in oiir State, and now the legislature has advanced Che standard by introducing such as you are dedicating to day.

Go forth then and be ardent In the erection of these Normal schools— educate the mass—then for yo'ur State you can exclaim with proud emphasis, .Eato perpeiua. . ■ At the conclusion of Gen. M’Oandless’ address, the large crowd'which listened to his remarks was rapidly dispersed by an approaching thunder storm,;'which abruptly ended the exercises of. the day. Shlppensburg was crowded with visitors, and everybody went home satisfied that the day was an entire success. In (he interests ol education we hope to see the buildlrig finished at an early day, and the school In successful operation. Fiub Portrait;— We have received from Messrs.
