COPNTV SAIUtATII SCHOOL ASSOCIATION
There seemed to prevail a general desire
in the Convention uWmve an insight into
the workings of this Association. Very
tew knew anything about its arrangements.
Alter some discussion a committee was ap
pointed to Inline resolutions upon the sub
ject. Tin* discussion on tins subject ro
venled: J
. L That it was the desire of the ('.inven
tion Unit Uev. C. Keimensnyder, iheCounty
Missionary, should be continued in his
labors.
V That llie'county provides only’ about
ono-lhird ol the amount necessarv to sup
port him, and that the American Sunday
School Union lots been supplying the two
thirds additional means necessarv.
8. Thai Lancaster county should not only
support iho Missionary (flow, hutjshould
donate a considerable amount annually, in
addition to the American Sunday School
Union,
•1. That tin* County M issionarv'will be
withdrawn unless this grant old, rich, pop
ulqus county contributes more liberally to
liis support.
d. That “The County Sabbath .School As
sociation’’ was orgnniz-d with 'this as one
ol its objects— to secure tho means above re
ferred to.
ih That \ ice Presidents, upon whom the
duty of collecting funds devolves have been
instructed, but not pmpt'rt i/, as to theii
duties.
In view of these fads the Committee re
ported tlie Inllowmg resolution, v iz:
\\ H human, This Convention considers
that the loss of ourCouniy Missionary in
the midst of his successful labors would bo
a public calamity, therefore
licsolrctl. That a Commitlce of Finance
bo appointed by this Convention, to act in
connection wiiii the Vice Presidents of tlio
county, who shall make diligent Mib.ts to
raise funds hv some regularly, organized
plan, lr. stislain this ail-important mission.

'Parr Spangler, <L W. Ilensel, I). S. Hare.
Ilis hoped that this action may accom
plish the object contemplated. It would be
“a burning shame” to tho county' if the
Missionary should lie withdrawn for want
•of support.
n r
Aflera very’.pleasant and profitable ses
sion of two days the Convention adjourned
to meet at Strasburg at such time as mav
be hereafter designed.

THE LANCASTER WEEKLY WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1869.
An Interesting Flour Case.—The fol
lowing interesting flour case was decided
Wednesday week, in the Court of Common
Fleas of Lancaster county:
It was an action of trover and conversion
Instituted to recover the value of sixty-five
barrels of flour, alleged to be the property
of Barnhart ana Koch. In December, 1865,
Isaac Brown, of Lancaster county, called
upon Joel Wenger, a miller in said county,
to purchase flour. Wenger said he had none
to spare; he having a contract for Philadel-
Shia. Brown called again about the flour,
ut Wenger did not promise to furnish him
any. Brown then called the third time, and
said that he (Brown) ought to have seventy
five barrels. Wenger said be would not give
him that much. That was the last time
Brown spoke to Wenger about the flour.
No price had been fixed.by them, and no
money paid for the flour ; but Wenger fi
nally, after this interview, sent a verbal
order by his teamster, to Wolf, at the ware- :
house, at New Berlin, to load sixty-five'
barrels of bis flour, with the twenty-five
barrels of Brown’s (Burkholder’s brand)
flour, and send them to Reading, in Brown’s
name, to Barnhart and Koch.
This warehouse belonged to and was in
the possession and occupancy of Samuel
Wolf, the other Defendant, who used it tor
the purpose of storing goods, placed there
by his customers, and subject to their
orders. There was also connected with it,
on his ground, a siding, on which goods
could be loaded and unloaded from and to
bis warehouse; which siding was connected
with the Reading and Columbia railroad by
means of a switch, which was opened when
goods were passed from the siding to the
railroad or vice versa. t
WeDger had over one hundred barrels of
flour at this time at the said warehouse.
This verbal order was delivered by the
teamster at the said warehouse on the 27th
of December, 1805, at 9 o’clock in the fore
noon. The sixty-five barrels were not in a
sepurate lot, nor separated from the rest of
the flour. About 10 o’clock Mr. Samuel
Wolf and his son commenced loading the
car, then standing on his siding ; and while
in the act of loading, and belore they had
finished, there being five or six barrels of
Wenger’s flour still on the porch, or iusido
of the warehouse—about three o’clock in
the afternoon, Wenger drove up and stopped
the loading, giving as his reason, that
he had just been iulormed that Urown had
become insolvent. He ordered tbo men to
take out the twenty-five barrels of Brown’s
flour, and load the car with his, (WeDger’sJ
flour. This was accordingly done, and the
car loaded and sent to Philadelphia. No
manifest or bill of lading fdr Brown had
been made out, nnd the verbal order to the
teamster entered in the freight-book, was
erased, when Wenger ordered the loading
to be stopped, and a new entry was made
for Philadelphia, in said book, immediately
miller the first. The twenty-five barrels of
Brown’s flour were sent to Reading. No
orders were given in regard to the flour, by
Brown to Wolf,after Brown's interview with
Wenger. On the day after the lust inter
view, Wenger, in the morning, called upon
Brown, and told him that he hud heard that
ho was in failing circumstances, and that
ho had stopped that flour on him. Brown
refilled that it was right. About a week
before this purchase from Wenger, Brown
had been in Reading, and had received about
$llOO from the PJuintills,.who staled tlmt
they wanted one hundred barrels of flour,
expressing u preference lor Wenger’s. But
Brown swore that ho was not their agent,
tlmt lie bought the flour for himself, that he
never sold it to them, and that lie
did not tell Wengor tlmt lie had received
money from Barnhart and Koch.
At tbo first trial the jury under t lie charge
of the Court found in tavor of the Plutnlifls
$709.02, and on a writ of ermr the Court
was reversed.
At the second trial, the jury under tho
charge of tho Court again found in f-tvor of
Plaintiffs $797.10, and on a second writ o:
orror the Court was again reversed. At tho
Hurd and lust trial, the jury under tho
charge of tho Court found in favor of the
Defendants.
Tho Court charged tlmt us this action was
trover, the Pliaulifls must show title in
themselves, and not only that title by deliv
ery had vested fully in Brown the pur
chaser of the flour from Wenger, but that
his title had become fully vested in them
selves by delivery to the* Kallroud Company
for trauHportution to thorn as consignees of
Brown, before Wenger countermanded the
delivery.

tiffs; T. K. Franklin and A. Herr Smith

make a verbal report respecting the Exper
imental farm in Chester county, to which
lie had been elected as a delegate from the
Society. Mr. Heist stated that lie had not
been able to visit the farm in accord
ance with the wish of the Society, but
staled that lie had seen Mr. Thomas
M. Harvey, tho Superintendent ot the
farm who had informed him that
they had MU dilferent kinds ol wiieut on trial
at said farm which had been sown for the
purpose of experimenting. Mr. Harvey in
lorined him that they would be pleased to :
have a committee from tlmSociety visit the j
farm about Juno next, and that the proper I
way to reach tho farm would bo to take ihe
cars from Lancaster to Downingtown, and
from that place to the lurm in private con
veyance; the farm being about lu miles
distant from Downingtown. A programme
of experiments and course of tests and
work to bo pursued on the farm during the
ensuing and following years which was
given by the Superintendent, Mr. Harvey,
to Mr. Keist, was submitted by Mr. R. to
the examination of the members of the As
sociation who were present. Prof. S. K.
Rathvon next read a long article from -the
Revue dcs Deux Monties, respecting Beetle
Hunting. Mr. Jacob Siauller inudo a few
remarks in referenced) the views enunci
ated in tho article read by Prof. Rathvon ;
and then proceeded to read an Essay on
Botany which was written by himself. On
motiou it was ordered that the essay just
read by Mr. Jacob Stauffer be submitted
for publication in “The Lancaster Farmer.”
Mr. Peter S. Keist next reud an article on
“ Tho Culture of Wheat.”
Mr. John Carter, of Chester county, so
licited on behnlfot the Experimental Farm
in that county, that the members ot the As
sociation sign petilious urging upon the
Legislature of this State the importance of
•granting tho sum of $5,1)00 in aid qf suid
farm, one-half of which is to be expended
in the erection of iudispensiblo buildings,
and the other half in purchasing improved
stock ; the said sum to be expended under
the supervision and direction of a financial
committee of three, to bo appointed by the
Commissioners uf Chester county, to whom
they shall be held responsible. And also
that there shall be a specific stun set apart
annually “to establish, conduct and main
tain tho said farm.” Mr. Carter proceeded
to make a general statement in reference to
tho existing condition of tho Farm School
and staled in general terms the necessity ol
the State Legislature making an appropri
ation in its behalf. Mr. C. remarked that
the Legislature of Massachusetts had re
cently appropriated SUU,(R)O to be expended
in the propagation of fish in the streams
ami rivers of that .Slate, and argued that
if Massachusetts could expend so much
lor that purpose the Legislature of ourown i
great state might appropriate the small
amount, toward maintaining a Farm
.School, winch was asked lor in tho peti
tions. A Resolution was offered by Jacob
B. Garber, which was on motion adopted
by the Society and wlii.-h read ns follows:
Jicsulvot, That we the undersigned mem
bers nfiho LnnouMer County Horticultural
Society fully approve of tho above Petitions
and strongly urge upon the members of the
Legislature the application of the Managers
o. the Chester Comity Experimental Farm.
Mr. LevlS. Keist spoke a lew words in
regard to tho propriety of signing the peti
tions presented by Mr. Carter, and staled
that on account of the nearness of said farm
to Lancaster county, our farmers would be
able to frequently visit it and it would thus
furnish them with much instruction, and
prove liighlv interesting to them.
C. L. liunseckcr also spoke in favor
the State legislature making tin* appro
priation and suggested that the nujofmt
might ho'dtkluctcd from tho none/ >/,cc,itu
the jw.sicr.s ,md folder*. ' '

very handsome apples of the North Caro-
Jiuu ULocn. Sindh's rider, and Lacker
Varieties. Tho Society entortame I them
selves with testing tho fruit on exhibition ;
the apples presented by Engle A Bro , were
pronounced of fine quality especially the
Smith's t utor.
On motion the Society adjourned.
Attempt to Fire the f'niudhen's
Home.— Some scoundrel n'lteinptod, Tues
day evening, about ,y o’clock to set lire to
the Homo for Friendless Children, in this
city, by placing a ball of rags thoroughly
saturated with some inflammable sub.-taijce
in the front room of tiie building. It ap
pears that the incendiary entered the front
door of the building and having placed the
said ball in tho room set lire to it and with
drew the same way he entered. Tho lire
was fortunately discovered by the matron
of (lie institution in time to be extinguished
nr the most dlsasterous consequences must
have resulted, as most of the little inflates
of the Home had retired to bed am! were
asleep. Foot-prints in the snow on the out
side of tho building indicated that the iucen •
diary was a grown person: und that, hav
ing placed the burning ball of rags inside
of the room, he stood at the front window
and luoking in, watched how his villainous
design would succeed. There are some
two hundred children in the Homo whose
lives were imperiled by this infamous act,
and it is therefore to be hoped that the cow
ardly miscreant who perpetrated a crime
marked with such ilagrant enormity will
be speedily arrested and adequately pun-
New Improved Cars.— lt is stated that
twenty-four new and improved cars are be
ing constructed by the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company. They will be heated on the
uew plan, the stoves being placed under

cars by means of pipes; the ventilation of
the cars will be perfect and tbeir interior
will bo elaborately finished ; the seats are
to be lower and neater in shape than those
in the cars now in use. A great improve
ment is also to be made in light, a chande
lier will be placed at each end of the car,

(2 scenes), Jonathan's Visit to his City
Cousin (9 scenes), Grecian Bend ( tho an

ed to be, and Our Order as it is. The Har
monic Association of Strasburg furnished

Attempt at Sticim-:.—On last Tuesday
morning Henry Kouder, Jr., son uf Henry
Sunder, of East Earl Township, a young
man 17 years of age, attempted to commit
suicide by hanging himself in tho horse
stable ol Ids uncle Daniel Nowawungor, ot
('ii-nmrvon Township, with whom lie was
hirod. Mr. Newswunger's son, a hoy of
about thirteen years of age, discovered
young Homier, suspended with a rope round
Ids neck and struggling. Ho attempted to
litt liim up, but being unable to accomplish
that, cut the rape. Houdors recovered and
is well. It is not known what wus the mo
tive which prompted this attempt atsuicide
The young man expressed great angor at
going to school, and this is the only known
cause ot' discontent which he has exhibited.
„ Thk Reach Bottom Railway.—Tho
York (,'a:ette .'• ays that tho report of the
late sm vi-y of tlio Muddv Creek route for
the railway from York to l’each Bottom,
recently submitted by John A.Hheatf, Esq.,
ot Lancaster, !•> the Superintending Com
mittee was Very lull and satisfactory. Thu
report shows that a first-class road of not
over thirty-three miles in length will con
nect the Susquehanna with the Northern
Centra!, at an aggregate cost of not over
ssuu,UUi). or s2l,ouu per mile, with grades on
the creeks not exceeding IU feet per mile,
and at the summit of only from odtodti
feet per mile. To accoimnodatu the trade
of Bunker Valley, with its stores of iron
oro and limestone, a branch of one amt a
half miles .may be built, and a branch of
two and and a quarter miles up to Delta
would be sufficiently near the largo slate
quarries iu tlmt vicinity, to secure the en
tire business of Slate Pudge.
The report wiil soon be published, and
in the meantime, it is hoped that those in
terested in the construction of the road will
not abate their efforts until it is built. A
railroad alone is wanting through that sec
tion of tlit* country to make "it bud and
blossom as the rose'

rest iu a comfortable position, but is equally
convenient for the surgeon and attendant in
all surgical, obstotricaland chronic cases.
The manner in which the Mattress is opened,

neatly contrived that the most helpless patlen I
can be relieved of the necessities of naturo
without raovlDg, or inconvenience,
It Is mounted on castors and requires but
the aid of one person to move it from place to
place, or change its formation to suit the re
quirements or necessities of the patient.
This invention has received the hearty on*
doraement of all medical men who have ex
amined It, including Drs. Atlee, Mr., and Car
