The only enlivening fcaturo was tho discussion and feeling occasioned by the Item of your new linnd nt the bellows, from Franklin township, In relation lo the straw-ride. Wo am very sorry to say that It. M. E.," has seen nt to cast some Impu tations upon tho persons accompanying the straw-ride ly dealing In Inundos. Tho facts In tho case do not Justify this. A corres pondent should never permit his fancies or his feeling to warp a rcpart of anything that may bo considered nows. We are afraid that "11. M. E." permitted this when lie describes, as ho says, the "r.orcl Incidents' of tho "straw-ride." Jlclng acquainted, oasually, with all that were along In the hay wagon, we can say without any reserve, that tho party was composed of tho rcputablo nnd lntclllgct portion of young folks ot our com munlty. In point of intelligence, character, and ability they fully size up to the standard of'Ml.M. E." We cannot understand what caused this caustic description cn the part ol tho Franklin townshlpccilbo except that the "green-eyed monster" was tho power (prompter) behind the throne. Wo aro rare In denying, from tho character of Iho parly, that they (party) wero atany tliao In such high glee as not to know what they wcro do lag. "Jacknapcs" at all times can miscon strue nnd prevent the actions ol any persons, but their shells generally bill broken at tho feet of ol those whom they aro lnlcndod to Injure. Hence there. Is no Injury done to those who uccoiupanlod tho party, but tho 'new hand" has written himself down us a mendicant and as ono who permits small whims to overturn his better judgment, l.et us hope thut lie will mend his notions, und this week rectify his misrepresentation.

It is his purpose to prepare for entrance Into the Freshman class of one ofthe classical institutions of Ihecnun Iry. In this venture we wish him much success Miss Emma Whitehead, of East Weiss port, is on the sick list. It is with the unrelenting hate and dlsdatn of haughty Juno, ttiat the parties that accompanied the straw ride, are hurl ing their anathemas and hitler invectives gainst "yours truly," for chronnlogicaling tho novel incidents of (hat now famous straw ride." The items in point were written in a hurry without mnch thought as to the contents and imtrts, but this is a fact, it is nevertheless true, that it has been the means uf making the male portion of their party cynical anil with a defiance on their brows, and as evidences has it, with nursing in their hearts a soreness for your scribe implacable, In revenge. It has trans formed the females toward him from all softness and gentleness, loving tnenress and to bo caressed into passion ami tigresses Such is the lamentable fact. History re euros anomalous results cauwt bv verv small circumstances, and if all bo true, that the members of the straw ride according In boast are going to dn with me, I mus prepare myself with hemlet and shield, ac cording to Don Quixote fashion for my own snlety and protection.

Patrick McFce, the contractor of tho new Fiemington branch of the Lehigh Volley Railroad, rays the statement that ho had received $8500 thus far from the company is falso. The tollowing amounts were re ceivod. For May, $2181 for June, $2150, He says out of the May esdmalo there were paid expenses to the amount of $2400, and out of Hid Juno estimate the balance re maining aflcr paying for stone and other expenses was returned by him to the Le high Valley Railroad Company with the understanding thai they were to pay (he men ami all the outstanding debts. The company has paid every cent of wages due the men. The branch will !e finished at once. McGee says there were n lue bids for this work lower than his. This road has paid off tho men In full. A Cement Company's Liabilities. The Lehigh Valley Portland Cement Company, a corporation of Ihe Stale of New York, some years ago became Iho owner of llio lease from Aarou and Ephraim Trnxell ujain ihelr farm in Whitehall Township, near Alleulowii. Buildings, machinery and a factory were erected at aoost of f 45, 000. Som Hu.o og. the New York banks de-lined further discounts, aud culled in outstanding loans This and some litigation iu the City of New York has made the compauy short iu cash. A number of foreign attachments were issued iu the Common Fleas ot Lehigh County for material and machinery, aggre gating $0000. Thursday, 31st ult., a con fesscd judgment to one ol the company for 133,000 was also added. Prior lu all these liens is a mortgage for $150,000. Married on Her Death-Bed. A strange inarrage took place at Dunmnro ou the 30th ult. The bride, Miss Jenuie Iieeman, daughter of Superiiitedent Free man of the. 1'enmylyaulu Coal Company's Works, was on ber death bed, a victim ol cousumption,and It was herdying wish that she might be married to her lover, Ei ward Muckloiv. Mucklow consented and the sad ceicmony was iierformed bv Rev. Oeorne Corry, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, in Ihe presence of the bride's Mher and sister. Miss Freeman's anxiety lor this marrage was due to Ihe fact that she had willed considerable property to Mucklow and she wanted bun to be'able to claim it I with a husband's rlgbU She grew uncon- scioui shortly aftsr the ceteoisny. The Coal Trado- Thcro Is no change Iu the condition of the coal trade. Restriction Is at an end and the co lllctles are pulling out ts inueh coal as llicy can possibly mine. The trade la very quiet ot present but the outlook for a lively fall business Is good. Tho slocks at shipping polnls have not Increosed and thcro need be no fear of an accumulation for tome tlmo to come, becauso Ihern are orders in for all the coat that comes lo market. Tho miners as wo havo said tiro now working full time, with every prospect of their continuing lo dn so for some time. It Is therefore likely that llu output Ibis year will como up If not exceed that of 1883. Tho Iron business Is quiet now, and (hot naturally affects the sale?, but It will not bo long before the furnaces will bo calling for oil they can get nnd nt the same tlmo the domestic sizes will bo In demand. Al together the prospects are fair and coal trado will no doubt bo booming Inn few wcoks. Tho Lehigh Valley Medical Association.

Thomas Dickson is Dead- Thomas Dickson, president of tho Dela woro and Hudson Canal Company, died nt Morrislown, N. J., on llio night of tho 31st ult., alter a few days Illness. Thomas Dickson, beginning his business life ns a boy mule driver in the mines of Northwest eru Pennsylvania, ended it as president ol ono of the larcest coal producing and trans porting companies In the country. He was born ut Lauder, Berwickshire Scotland, in March, 1825. His parents removed with their family to Canada in 1S32. and he became n clerk iu n storo at 13, and partner nt 20. At 30 ho established tho Dickson Manufacturing Company. Mr. Dickson entered the employ of the Delawato nnd llud'.on Canal Company in I860 as superin tendent of the coal department, and four years later ho was promoted to bo general superintendent of ull its business. In ISO he was chosen vice president, and In 1800 ho was elected president. Ho was not prominent Iu the railroad world outside of ins connection with the roads ofthe Dela ware ami Hudson Company. He had been a director in Hie Erie Railway Compiny since II ugh J Jeweltassumed the presidency, and was a ine.nbcr of tho Executive Com iniltee at the limo of hisdeath. Ho was lor several years a director of tho New York Mutual Life Insuranco Company, and of tho Mechanic! and Manufacturers' Insur once Company of Newark, N. J. lie was u trustee of Lilayelte College in Esston, Pa and of tho St. Andrew Society. Mr. Dirk- son was tho lending spirit in securing the combination of Hie anthracite coal com panics to restrict production In lltu demand, which was formed about twelve years nen. He contended thut the prico of tho whole product was mado bv the excess, no matter liow small it might bo over the needs or trade. By his diligent woik and througn his personal Intliienco with tho operatois tho coal combination was kept Intact until 1870, and it was largely due to him that (ho policy nf restriction was subscqueutly resorted io at times.
