LItdo t J lanl Chemical I I ro Engine.
On Thursday evening last a largo
number of our citltens' assembled on
tho rlslnrr, ground, immediately Jn the
rear of the Public Stiaare, to witness a
tilal of the .capacity of the nbovo Rn.
glue, bi ought hero f,or tho purpose by
nrt agent of the Company frou'i New
York. A large quantity of shavings,
lumber, barrels, and oth"r combustlblo
niaterj.ll was placed on it heap, and file
attached. After giving the fire sum.
clent time to get fairly uudtr way, the
Engine was brought Into requisition,
nd in less than two minutes tho flames
were completely subdued. The rxper
i'mpnt was tried two or threo tlnie3 to
the satisfaction of all present.
The price of tho Engine is SCOO ; and
now that' it ha been tried, and sot
found wanting, it renialhs for tho pro
nerty owners of Lehightnii to deter
mine whether 1)1)3 small sum shall bo
expended, or whether they nie willing
to sit with folded hands" and risk their
piopcrfy to the' mercy of the element
at nny tlmo It may see proper to
visit us.
Common prudence jyoiild seiini to In
Jlinato that wo go to work, a'ld nol
htaiid on tlio order of doing, but do at
once and raise the required means, and
thus place ourselves lu a safo position,
Tjio Engine Is simple lu its construc
tion, and can be thoroughly manned
by fivo persons. It cau bo seen at tho
Tobacco Store of Mr. Urady, at which
place a special meeting of tho Lehigh

held 011 thlsO'aturday) eyenlng,ut 7 1-2

And now Young America Is buck

re-opening of the pubi'c schools, which
takes place 011 the 23d of tho present

Ohl for the days when wo werea boy-
.wh'en we could stub our toe and lauiji
at tue mishap when" maturing bank
notes gavo no foreboJIii;s when our
only dread appeared to Lo the wndlng
up of vacation days. Hut as we can't
be a boyngaln, thero Is some consola
tion In knowing tj-,at boys have their
gloomy hours as well as we ot tho
maturer class - and that the most potent
ot these 'times is tho tinkling o'f the
school bell which calls tijoni to study.
The schouls will continue opqn for
four months, when there will bq a va
cation of teu days, to give teachers ami
Echulars a.chancu of enjoying the huly
tjays. They will then reopen, and
continue l)vp months longer thus giv
ing us nine months of school tlmo du
ring tho year.
' In Lehighton yo hjive'a largo, airy,
and well ventilated school house, and
the teachers chosen fax the various po
sitions are persons who havu been tried
and found lo bu competent. Tie samo
may bo said of l'ackerton and tho other
districts In tho vicinity. Tills healthy
ftato of affairs can bo attributed In n
great measure to tho untiring zeal ma
nifested by our present excellent Coun
ty Supeilnteiident, It. V. Hofford, Esq.
Hu has pioveu himself a most compe
tent public officer ; and the fact that
the various Dlioctors have continued
hiui Tor the fourth or fifth term, Is tho
best ludlcati;)!! that his learning and
nullities ar iuly appreciated.
