_action of the German Library ASSOCia.
don in Regard to th e PrOpUIPAI Cele.
Oration of the Vourth;
Yesterday evening a number of gen.
tiemen—metnbers of the German Lege•
verein—met in their library and reading
room, on Liberty street, and adopted
and subscribed to a set of resolutions
which were drawn tip and presented by
Dr.' Meinertzhagen. The sentiment of
the resolutions, which we received at too
late an hour for full translation. is that
the statutes of the Association forbid the
ti t s)
aiecussion of all questions bearing upon
the-tell ors or political opinions of in.
divid ,Members; that, therefore, the
society t t °facially take part in the
oposed ebration of the anniversary
ofthe American Declaration of Inde.
ruidenoe on . Sunday, the 4th of next
uly, and that each member must act as
be sees at in this -respect. But that it is
unseemly that an association represent
ing so weighty a portion of the German
population of the vicinity, should not
uestion
express its opinion on a q
so important to all of the Ger
man people of the neighborhood.
That while the Association wishes that
-the agitation of this question. brought
on by a number of Germans, had, from
the beginning, Peen characterized by
more respect for and deference to the re
• ligione prejudices of our American fel•
low citizens, it _cannot see anything
wrong in the pro Posed demonstration,
(which, according to the prOgramme,
will be ordered with due regard to the
solemnity of the day. and without offence
' to-religions feelings Of these late think
differently.) and that the , society must
express its deep regret that a number of
American ministers have not refrained
from reviling with blind fanatacism and
In an unchristian...pint our German pop.

Immoral and ' 'lrreligions blasphemers

James R. Reed Jc Ce. , s Jewelry Rouse,
No. 68 NUM Avenue.
The jewelry house of Messrs. James
R. 'Reed & Co., No. 68 Fifth avenue, has
lust emerged from a series of repairs,
and is hardly recognillable as the old
Place. Elegant and luxurious plate glass
windows, Rued with - rosewood, have sup
.
planted the old ones, and, in, fact, an en
tire change has bean "wrought in the
front and entrance, and the salesroom
presents a very handsome appearance. -
The stock of fine jewelry, watehes, clocks
and silver ware has been. largely in•
creased, and both in quality and quan
tityoffers wide range to the purchaser
for, selection. S specialty Is made of
silver ware, solid and plated, and we di
pla
etct y
pec
esial attention to the dis
p made of silver plated ice
pitchers, doubly walled and lined
with porcelain. They are superb articles
in their way and vastly superior to any
we have over examined. The firm hays
always sustained high reputation as hon
orable gentleinen. They are content to
receive reasonable profits on their goods,
and in no case make false representation
to secure a sale. L The latter feature can
not be too highly appreciated. especially
when one sets out to buy jewelry where
so much dependence is to be placed in
the honor of the dealer. Purchasers can
rest assured that what Messrs. Reed :&
Co. represent about their goods can be
relied upon isstrlctly correct. We hope,
with their increased business facilities
and new stock, that the house will re
ceive an increase in the large share of
patronage hitherto directed towards
them. Their old friends and customers
must remember that 'they still occupy
Igo. 68 Fifthl avenue, the old stand, al
though it nay not be recognized as such
in its preseat tine appearance.

Presentation. to a. Very , Worthy Official.
Mr. Samuel Dobson, Supervisor of the
Pennsylvania Central Railroad between
Pittsburgh and Latrobe, has for ten years
or.more filled that resnsible position
with tact and ability, ; eriting and re
-131.1
ceiving the confidence and respect of
his employers.' In 'c rawly guarding
the interests of the company and
proting faithful to hie:. duties,
he was ' equally careful of those under
his supervision• and his; kind, generous
and contiderate treatment of his men
won their golden opinions, their love,
respect and well Wishes. In order to
make ;,him feel that his uniform kind
ness and generosity were appreciated the
workmen, together with a number of the
officials of the road at this end, and other
personal friends, arranged to present
him with a substantial mark of their re
gard for him as a man. and officer. Ac
cordingly a large sum of money
was I subscribed, and with such
whole smiled gentlenien as Messrs.
Isaac Good,
H. T. J. Louis, E. Redman,
R. McElroy, J.
and D. Snyder,e

a Committee of Arrangements, a presen
aation and a supper were arranged. The
Committee elected to purchase as good a
watch as could be obtained in the coun
try, and as massiVe and elegant a chain'
as Duneriath, the jeweller, could procure;
and they decided also to- have all the
Mends of the recipient sit down to - as
it :
sumptuous supper as only McPherson,
the clever h tof the Great Eastern Ex •
change hots knows how to get up. The
first part of t e prag stonier was entrusted
to Mr. W. G. Duns th, 56 Fifth avenue.
who supplied one oil the finest watchee
and chains we have ever examined. Tha
chronometer_ was of the United States
Company's best make and movement. It
was supplied witi a stein winder, ad
justed to variation. in the temperature
and position„ and was as perfect
a,'.piece of ,l, Mechanism .as Mr.
Dunseath - could ' procure from the
great watch company for which he is
agent in tats city. We are glad to notice
the high favor in:Wall these time pieces
are held, and Mr. D. must congratulate
himself on the su cess of his great exer
tion to introduce them into notice in
this s
market. The chain was massive
and bore as a charm a pretty stone seal,
mounted in gold and having engraved on
its. face a coat of arms. The presents
cost about five huhdred - dollars.
Last night the Presentation ceremony
drew together at the Great Eastern Ex
change, East Liberty, more than three
hundred guests, principally gentlemen
connected with the railroad between
; here and la robe, and personal
; friends of the .. - 7 recipient. At eight
o'clock the meeting was called to
order by 'our worthy friend Mr.
Walter Kirkpatrick, conductor, on
whose motion the follow i
ing otli
oers were called to preside—Pres
dent, Jesse Yarnell; Vice President, T.

e been asked
by your many friends, of his division, to-
of
present you this watch as a token
their regard for you, and ppreciationlf
you as an o ffi cer and age tleman. The e
are times in our lives that words, no m
ter how well spoken, fail to convey the
true intent of their meaning, and
one of them is the pre ve sent.
A few of your friends ha concludedoccasion to
demonstrate their feeling of friendship
and esteem for you as an officer of the
great and crowing Pennsylvania Rail
road Company. We can testify that your
duties have never been neglectedwhile
in the service of the Company. Our road
has become famously known for its safe
and successful management, which has
secured for it the largest confidence of
the public, and let us say here, to mark
an era in its history, that within the last
ten days, over it, in safety went thefirst
car through, from the Atlantic" coast
to the "Pacific" slope.
In the future, may you look back with
ride, and think that a man can do
justice -to his employers, and at
the same time -command the res
pect of his employes. We ask yeiu
to accept this watch and its accompani
ments as a mark of our esteem for you,
and as you wear it may it prove a con
stant reminder that you are not unap
preciated or unobserved by that* about
you; that your e ff orts to promote the best
interests of the Company are endorsed by-;
your associates and einployes, and may
we indulge in the hope that in your ser-1
vice it may mark the lapse of many ,1
years. May your road-bed be solid, and ;
your track smooth; your grades easy
through life. That you may always have
health, happiness and prosperity is the ;
earnest dealre of all your friends here to- 1
night.
Mr. Dobson responded happily and ex- ;
pressed his gratitude to the donpra in a
feeling manner, after whichfi•onsing
cheers were given for him. or Mr.
Routh, for Mr. Dunseath and Ifor
Mr.
Kirkpatrick. A speech complitnentary
to the recipient was made lby Mr.
Robert Ramsey, and he was fol
lowed Eby it., Walter Kirkpatrick
in the same strain. Mr. Edw. Redman
paid a high tribute to Mr. Dobson, and
his remarks were eloquent and well di
rected. Mr. Gross also delivered a hap
py speech. The meeting then adjourned ,
to the dining-room, which had been .
"adorned with Sa gs and festoons,
and where a splendid supper Was wait
ing. Mr. McPiaerson, the host, has- wide
spread reputation as a caterer. anti on
this occasion he more than sustained it.
After the cloths were removed, chain
paigne was introduced,and a general good
and toffy time of mirth, song and speech
making was had up till midnight, when
the party separated. The occasion was
very enjoyable sod well managed, and
reflected credit to all concerned.

The Stock and Bond Holders of the P.
Ft. W. &C. R. W. Co., met at the gen
eral office of the company, in this city at
10 o'clock, A. n., yesterday, pursuant
to a call from the President, as provided
for at the annual meeting in March last.
The meeting was opened by James S.
Croft, Esq., President of annual meet
ing taking the chair, and F, W. Hutch
inson acting as Secretary.
The President of the company, by in
struction of the Board of Directors, sub
mitted for consideration and action, a
lease of the Railway and property of
the Pittsburgh, Fort Waye and Chicago
Railway Company, for a period of nine
hundred and ninety-nine years, which i
had been agreed upon between the re--
apective Boards of Directork_of that
company and of the Psylvania Rrall
road Company, which n
lease had been
executed on behalf of the latter com
pany, on the 7th hist, and now only
awaits -- the affirmative action of this
meeting to be executed and delivered on
the part of this company.
On Motion of Jacob Henri I, Esq., the
lease was read by the Secret ry in extenso,
occupying about one hour and a half in
the reading, and containing twenty-two
articles. ittf a legal paper the lease seems
to have been very full and' explicit, and
to have been drawn with great care.
After the reading of the lease, J. F. D.
Lanier, Esq., offered the following reso
lution, upon which a vote{of stock was
called and tellers ordered:
..Resolved, That we, the stockholders
and bondholders of t he Pittsburgh, Fort

years, upon theterms and conditions, and
for the annual rental reserved and men
tioned in a certain indenture of lease
thereof, bearing date on the 7th day of
June, 1869, - executed by or on behalf of
the said Pennsylvania {Railroad Com
pany, and submitted tows; and that we
hereby assent to and approve of the ex
execution and delivery of suchleiv3e on
behalf of the said Pittsburgh, Fort
Wayne and Chicago Railway company.
Provided, however, that this assent and
approval shall not be oonistrned to waive,

Grand Closing Out We—Fleming, No.
: 139 Wood Street, Again Leads in
Great Bargains.
The reader is sufficiently well aware of
the fact that ordinarily the most reason-
Able prices for hats and caps. either at
wholesale oiretail, are those to be ob
tained at the popular and well conducted
house of Mr. William Fleming, No.
Wood 'street. He always sells cheap,
whether in winter, when he transact* an
immensetrade in ladies' lure, draw
ing thou tr sands to his establish-,
ment and leadir6 the trade. br
in the spring, summer or fall,
when he devotes more especial attention
to his hat and cap departments; but
when he announces, as he elsewhere
does, in this day's paper, that he I , 4 se en
tered upon a grand closing out sale, he
means to sacrifice goods withr j ut any re
gard to original cost. There is no hum.
bugging about this r..td established
house, no baits are thr4l
the unwary. but r awn out to catch
sound business.
When Mr. Flemir4
advertises to give
bargains to his
customers, he means to
live up fairl y .- and squarely with his
promise,beiog much too honorable in his
character and dealings to resort to any
trickery to sustain or increase the
great popu'larity, ,of his house. In the
present ir,stanee he advertises to do so,
and he is in earnest. In order
to make extensive improvements
in h'. store rooms he desires to
get Izid.of his large stock as far as post&
bleto greater expedite the contemplated
repairs, and to accomplish that end, ad
vertises a closing-out sale which will con
tinue from this date to the 15th 'of next
month. The immense stock to be thus
disposed of at great bargains consists of
men and boy's fur and wool bate, gents
cassimere and fine silk hats, men, boy's
and children's brown and ;fancy straw
goods. The goods are all new and fash
ionable and of late purchase. Remember
the place, No. 139 Wood street, and if you
are wise and would save money, pay the
house a visit. ,
