Re.tectkd Editor : No doubt tho
readers of your pnpor havo observed In
last week's Issue that them will bo a
camp meeting held at Freemansburg on
the 29th, by the German Methodists. I
would Infrm the readers :
1. That there are German Metho
dists, but nonu in this part of the notld.
a. That we entertain the bltrliest re
gard for this denomination as well at
others, but wo prefer to bo known, re
cognized and called by our own namo.

by the Evangelical Association, which
was founded In 1800 by Jacob Alhriuht.
Its numerical strength is 95,253 mem

Successful Operation.
Four years ago.while Mr. John Gom-
ery of this place was engaged In hang
ing picture frames at bis home, the
chair, on which he was standing, up
set and be in falling to the floor run
bis knee through a window pane before
which he had been standing, and re
ceived a deep gash In It, from which
the blood flowed freely, leaving it very
painful. Thinking there might be a
piece of glass in the wound, Mr. G.
had it examined by a physician, but
none was found, and in the course of
a few days the wound healed kindly,
and the trouble apparently -was over.
But, several mouths after the accident
a swelling was formed where the old
wound had been, which again was very
painful and greatly impaired his loco
motion, this soon passed away only to
be followed by similar attacks, at fre
quent Intervals. He again consulted
a physician ,who, after examining It,
Informed him that the swelling was an
accumulation of senovfal fluid (joint
water), and advised him not to have it
interfered with for it would, of its own
accord, spun pats away, Mr. G. ac
cepted the advice and bore his trouble
patleutly for four years, but without
any melioration ; becoming disgusted
with the state of affairs, he called at
thepfflco of Dr. W. A. Derhamer, on 2nd
street, on the 20th Inst., and tbero had
removed from his kneo the cause of his
suffering, namely : a piece of glass 5-8
of an Inch long, 1-8 thlek, 1-4 wide at
one end. and pointed at the other, and

April 24, 1870, Were I to write that
"tbero Is nothing new under the sun,"
and stop, It would perhaps bn as well
as to attempt writing a treatise on noth
ing. Tliatall our surroundings are ex
cessively dull, It is almost superfluous
to say, ns It is thus almost evcrywh"rs,
but for real) gcnulno dullness, with
scarcely a ripple on the surface, the
week about to explro has been the most
conspicuous within my n collection
Our hotels nro nearly tlofctteil, trade Is
stagnant, tho number ot Idlers steadily
increasing, and, were It not a patent
fact, ono would be almost tempted to
doubt that wo really aro In tho midst of
a great political contest, so umiiually
quiet nrn that ordinarily clamernus set
the politicians, although a few of tho
bread and butler brigade havo repeated
ly been seen In tjwn during the week,
and shown rather more anxiety than
heretofore. Hut, generally speaking.
nil is "quiet alone tho line." Perhaps
that Monday will usher In a change, the,
opening ot me adjourned June session,
and tha meeting of the Democratic
County Commltteo cannot fall to draw
their crowds, and, In so far as local
politics are concerned, will enable ono
tu form a clearer Idea of the real slat
ot affairs. Ono thing appears to 1;
sure, tho vexed Molly question, and
bad blood It lias engendered, are liUely
to prove a "sea of troubln''' to tho De
mocracy during this Fall's campaign,
fcr let them Ignore tho Irish and they'll
he sure to bolt, and so It will be should
they burden the ticket with too manv
candidates of that nationality, for the
simple reason tl at there are entirely
too many wno ate or the opinion that
"no Irish need apply," and sorry as
one may be that things should have
como to this pass, to deny thccxlstence
of tho prevailing sentlii.ent were but to
shut one's eyes to a painful truth. Good
generalship may, however, avert the
calamity, and as th3 "Major' undnubt-
ly Is tiie best tactician and most fnUu-
entlal Individual In the party, It Is to
him that tne more sensible portion of it
ook for a solution of the dlilicult prob
lein. In the Republican camp all Is
quiet, from which however it must not
bo inferred that the leaders are idle
No, no, they are hard at work, and at
the proper timo will, no duubt, be able
to to perfect such a ticket as may wor
ry their opponents more than they care
for. Rut why continue to dwell longer
upon the nauseating subject of politics,
whan matters of moro vital Importance
claim our attention.
Tho collapse of tho great coal combi
nation being a fait accompli. I may
here state that the announcement of its
dissolution, although It somewhat took
most men by surprise, caused no re
grets. And why should It? Did not
tho people of tills great valley (loutish
oeforo this roosstrosity was ever thought
ot V was not com cheaper, and wages
better then than they are now ? And
couia tne iron men or tl.o valley, were
It to continue, ever expect to success

West and South ? These and kindred
questions are hear,! on eveiy side, and
Invariably end in condemnation of the
scheme. Whether the combination real
ly was a blessing or a curse to the peo
ple or tills section of the coabiegion,
timo will develop, nnd as the discussion
of the question hero would bn both im
politic and Inexpedient, I abstain from
diving into tho subject as it deserves,
convinced that the coal region is not
the place to argue the point.

Debt. It is everywhere. On tho
merchant's stock of goods. On the
houso you live In. On the church you
worship In. On tho chapel you pray
in. On tho villago. On the town. On
the city. On railways. On canals,
On privato enterprises. On public
works' ai.d Improvements. Often dent
Is carried ou tho back. Often worn on
the head. Often fitted to the feet. It
is met with on the church Bible. On
the hymn-books. The minister often
carries a load of It. Newepapers carry
It. It Is the wnrlil's curse, and has
well been pronounced to bo "the dovli's
saddle." It sticks llkoa plaBtcr. It Is
ugly to look at cloo by. Hut it Is not
without a prospective of beauty. ,ln
fact, dtitaneo lends It enchantment
but It U never returned. Debt exists
in two forms : collectlblo nud nun
collectible. Otic debt Is til way h collect
ible. You can't shirk It. No ph.Ue of
the Hibjunctivo mood govurni It. It
uiust, shall, will, beipaid. It Is the
great debt of Mature. Ono debt you
never can pay. It Is trie debt ot ver
Ifistlng Love. And you can't evon re
duce It in ail eternity. It U tbe only
debt that Is a blessing. Tbe only form
ot obligation where It is moro blessed
to o o than to pay. It you are not In
this debt, the quicker you get iuto it
tbo belter. Do It now. By and by
heaven. And then, hurrah I Chris
