Wc understand that it is designed to have the auditorium completed forthwith, and occupied for re ligious services duritiir the coming win ter. The ladies belonging .to the church are busily at work preparing to raise fund with which to furnish the church. When completed the building will stand as an ornament to our borough, and reflect credit upon the energy, cuterpriseand lib erality of the congregation, a large share of which will be duo to the Rev. Mr. Ev eritt and his estimable lady. tn. "We neglected to mention, last week, the laying of the corner stone o the new church for the use of the colored Methodists of our borough, on Analom ink Avenue, a week ago last Saturday. The ceremonies were performed by Hisl on Wvman. assisted by the llev. Mr 9 Harney, the Presiding Elder of this dis trict. The address was pronounced by those who heard it an able production. t)a the preceding evening 1'ishcp Wy o;3fl preached to a full house, in th Methodist Episcopal Church, a large pre j onderence of tle audience being white people. The Fcrmon, in whatever point rifcwed, would have proved no discredit to any divine, however cuiiucnt, and in many of its points was berutifully clo jucnt. The Suicide at Phillipsburg, N. J. T.n our last week's paper wc published, from one of our exchanges, an account of the melancholly suicide of Mrs. Lizzie Smith, nee Ilollenbach. A friend who knows all about the young Lady and her family, as sures u that the article docs jreat injustice to the parents of the deceased, and is not founded on the facts of the case. Wc, iherc'ore, the more cheerfully give place to ihe following: The deceased, who formerly lived at Sprirgvil'.c, Susquehanna county, Pa. made' her home with her father unlil the death of her molhcr, which eccurrcJ cn the 5th of July, lGo, and, unbeknown to him, held a correspondence with Smith, which finally led Jo the abandoning of the borne of her ch Uhood and her paternal protector. This, through the influence of human fiend?, both imlc and female, was kept from her father's knuwh.'dgc. On the Gth of Septeinlcr, b(io, !io went to Scranton, to visit her couin, a, Mr. Taylor, and while there was mnrried lo Smith. Prom Scranton Smith and hi vife went to Lock Ilaven where they 'ap peared to live happily, as letters from Smith Jo her father, asking forgiveness for any -einng dis-respect," would show. But it ap-fx-ar that their happiness was of short du ration, fir another woman claimed Smith as her liege lord, and Lizzie, as wife No. 2, was tl.rust out "in the cold." This separa tion did not come to her father's knowledge until about a yar after it occurred, when, in u letter from Clark's Green, she told him the wl.oie story. He went ti see her at once, and endeavored to reconcile her to her situ ation by giving her assurances of a home u iih him, when she w as unable to do without. .rat any time the w iehed. She had i;o ftep liiotiicr until the 15th of May, 1S0G, and in the September following spent two or three weeks at .her father's, and at Springville, nhen.es he supposed she v. entto Smith's horn.?. Li April last he visited her father again, after staying a w hile went to Benton, and from thence to Waymart, in Wayne, County. She visited her father's again on Saturday, the SOili of September, took din ner, did some washing, and said she was jo- ing to help Mrs. Warner do some sewing, She then went to the Depot, as the said, to Bczd t-ome things to Scranton, but did not return. In a letter to her father, dated Oak land, September 3Cth, 1SG7, she 6ays: The reason I did not tell you when I wns going, I did not know myself. Often when 1 have been discouraged, and almost insane, I would think of suicide. Then the thought of the trouble you have had, and that you would m.ss me if I was gone, kept ine from it. I will do the best I can, but I will own that life is a burden to me. I shall 1- w-oys be glad to hear from you. Pll do the best I can. I disobeyed you, and am now reaping my reward. If my punishment itjurt I will try and Lear it. JWt write until you hear from me aain. Your affectionate daughter LIZZIE." This letter was found in her trunk after her death, unfolded. In a letter to a friend, also unfolded, the says: I do not think le was worth v the love i gave mm, ana 1 do hope I shall not be fool enough to attempt to kill myself again." The reader will see from this the real causes which prompted the terrible deed; and the fact that she was tubject to periodi cal fits, which she often said "made her al most cra'zy," unfolds to our mind the melan cholly fact that she was laboring under tem porary insanity, or aberration of mind.

FiriDg the Democratic Heart- Our ucighbor of the Democrat, last week opened his batteries for the pur pose of Grins -up the Democratic heart, and keeping it up to the welding heat for the campaign of 18GS. lie blazes away at a most thundering rate, aud would loubtlcss render the air redolent of burnt brimstone, did uot the smell of burnt wool predominate in the anioke which bursts so terrifically from his gun. It is evi dent that his ammunition is composed wholly of" Sambo and his short comings," for he sees nothing but nigger, thinks ol nothing but nigger, aud prints nothing butniirircr. Pad iudced has Sambo proved himself to be, according to the Democrat's show in", but it is a consolation to kuow that according to the. same showing, Sambo has been caught, in nearly every instance, and punished for his crimes; in many in stances, with a perfection ol cruelty that should satisfy even a Democrat's most bitter hate. We don't pretend that Sam bo is perfect. On the contrary we look upon him as a very imperfect being; but wc cannot but marvel that Sambo's moral delinquencies have been so few, in view of the fact that his teachings have been imparted uuder the lash, and that for year and years, for generation after gen eratiou. he has been treated as a brute beast, rather than as a beitfg possessed of moral accountability, and human attri butes generally. With the examples of lechery set him by his former Democratic masters it was reasonable to suppose that he would become lecherous, and the only marvel is that Democracy can find so few instances of his badness in this respect. We do not uphold Sambo in his crimes Indeed we rejoice that his punishment is generally so prompt, and would rejoice still more if, in every instance, he could be caught in the act and punished 3 he deserves. Put is the Democrat actin-r fairly in the matter? is' it using icgiti mate fuel with which to keep the fires of prejudice burning? is it dealing hon estly with those who are instructed by its teachings? There arc over 4,000,000 of Sambos in the South,-who are jet in the transition state from slavery to freedom, and from ignorance to educated intelligence, aud the whole of these have not furnish ed a dozen cases iu a year, of crime such as the Democrat so conspicuously parades in its columns last week, while a study of the police reports of the city of New York alone, would reveal full ai many ou the part of Democratfc white culprits in one quarter the time. It is singular that the Democrat can God no crimes to charge against its white rebfcllous brethren of the South. Were we disposed to be sensational, as it is, wc could Gil our columns with reports of just as grave and heuious crimes, and in far greater numbers, committed by those who were so lately the masters and in structors of Sambo. The Democrat could Gnd them too, but to publish them would not answer its purpose, which is to add fuel to the prejudice already existing against a race which has been trodden up on, and ground to the dust for years. To aceomplish this our neighbor does not hesitate to insult the modesty of his read ers with a recital, colored to life, of the most horrid and revolting crimes known to the laws. We do not envy a taste so groveling, nor a party which requires such argument to support its pretensions A good thing for this section o country is Mr. George L. Walker's Ileal Estate Agency, established in the fore part of the summer, proving itself to be Through it Water Power?, hitherto lying idle and unnoticed, have been hunted up and brought to the attention of capital ists; and farms, which have been eye sores to their owners, placed in the line of enterprise and capital, which will redeem them from their half-barren state and, in a short time, make them complete garden spots. The factory on the Kirk property which we mention elsewhere, though not the result of a sale effected by him, i3 rc ally the result of the information convey ed abroad through his agency the cap ital erectiog it having actually been in duced here by his representations. W t 1 1 . - nave neara ot a number of instances iu which capital have becu thus induced to look at our wealth, lying dormant beneath the rushing waters of our rapids, and which will yet loom up iu prosperity-pro ducing mills and factories. A gentleman from Xcw York, who never heard ol Stroudsburg and vicinity, except as it rough, impoverished, aud out-of-the-way sort of a place, and who was induced to come here by Mr. Walker could hardly find language strong enough to express his astonishment at what he saw when he got here, lie was delighted with the country, and was emphatic in Ins decla rations that all that was necessary to build up our county as a great man'ufac turing region, was to satisfy car,;tai abroad of the abuudanee of our water power, and our other great facilities for manufactur-j ing nearness to fuel and market, &c.-! Thus what was looked upon as rather chimerical and a fancy dodge on the part of Mr. Walker, is really workiua to our advantage aud will yet prove productive oi great -ana justing results. The work of building the factory oh the farm purchased by New York'cap- iulists, of Mr. Abucr Kirk, on Pocono Creek, a few miles from town, is being pushed on most vigorously. -Although but a month or six weeks have elapsed since the purchase, the dam. a most sub stantial one, is already completed, and the foundation of the building well under way. Wc have been informed that the manufacture of buttons and yankee no tions generally, will be specialities of the factory. ''.- - ftu arc pleased to learn that our old friend Charles M. Price, Esq., whom rumor, a few weeks ago, reported as hav ing " shuttled off this mortal coil," is alive aud worth a thousand dead Charlies yet From the Scranton papers we learn that Charley has opened a saloon on tfpruce street, between Pcun anil Wyoming Av cnues, in that city, aiid is doing a "rush- ing business. This will be good news Charley's thousand and one friends in this borough and couuty, who will doubt less avail themselves of a visit to Scran ton to call and see him, and partake o his good things. It matters not what Charley engages in, he always proves himself equal to the undertaking, and he docs not kuow how to keep a saloon wc would like to know who does.

Cannibal Insects. Do all insects feed on plants ? For tunately they do not. Many insects are cannibals. I hat is, they feed on other in sects. Among them there is a struggle foi life, as well as elsewhere. The cannibal insect feeds on the plant feeding one, and thu3 prevents the latter from being too numerous. The different varieties found within the United States are about 30,000, or about ten distinct varieties of insects to one variety of the animal kingdom. O these o0,000 varieties of insects it IS thought there arc not less than 7,500 the varieties that arc cannibal. These insects of prey keep the remaining three-fourth's within due bounds. In the animal king dotn we find beasts of prey less numerous than the herbtverous ones ; so among in.- sects wc and the class of cannibals far less numerous than those which depend upon other sources for their subsistance Kvery school boy has seen the spider at work catching flies; while thus ensra ged a mud wasp comes along and catches the spider ; for fear that mud wasps should become too -numerous, the wasp is des troyed by the ichneumon fly. which, in its turn, falls a prey to birds and other loseet-feeders. Kvery one must admit that cannibal insects arc the farmer's friend. Now will it pay to grow' them artiGcially in communities wtierc the plant-Icedins in sects predominate ? Practical etomologists and thinking men must decide on the above question. Paiti3 ought to betak en to raise as many insccteating birds as possible. Teach the bovs not to rob birds' nests, or to wantonly destroy the lives of old birds. In England gardeners collect the larr:e of the lady-bird (bog) to destroy plant lice. We know, by experi ence, that a nest ot bald hornets will soon clear out all the house-flics. It is s-id that the large, stinking and oticnsivc-tasted bug so common on black berries and other fruits, if placed in a room infested with bed-bu.s, will soon de stroy a whole colony of the latter. This is well worth a trial by some modern ho tel keepers, and by those who are always unuing ou; a uew "humbug. Base Ball in the Family.

Colorado and New-Mexico Lixoa- ANCK ABOUT NEW-MEXICO TllE CoP- feuv Mines, &c.,Jcc., Santa Ye, Sept. 24, 1867. , While walking through the business parts of Philadelphia, New-York, or any of our lar;c Eastern cities, the observer will tiotiee near every corner glaring slugs that promise immeusc fortunes to those wise enough to invest in the stock of some Colorado or Mountana, mining company. Many of those organizations are good and pay fair dividends, while others are the wain trunks of the wild cat speculations that are iujuring the Territory of Colora do to-day. Still the amount of good done by the companies is great, inasmuch as they bring before the people the resources of the sections they represent, and by turning capital into such channels help to more rapidly develop the mineral wealth of thoso Territories. Colorado compared with New-Mexico is a young Territory. Still to-day Colordo is a household name while New-Mexico remains to the mass of our people a terra incognita, not worth their inquiring about. The American, on coming here, is first amazed at the im mense undeveloped mineral wealth of the Territory, and astonishment succeeds as he asks why New-Mexico is so little no ticcd. The solution of this puzzle is to be found in the differences between the people of each section. The Santa Fc of to day is that of two hundred years ago. Long before the Pilgrim fathers landed on Plymouth Rock, New-Mexico was a land of great wealth and comparitive re finement. Rut as the Spain of those days hat fallen behind iu the grand march of nations, so have all the colonics planted by that mother land. New-Eusland rose from her rocks a giant. New-Mexico sunk iu her rich valleys to a dwarf. The axon spread His power over every part of the continent. The Spaniard bowed to the current when it reached him, but remained rooted in his life and opinions. Say what wc may, the New-Mexicans ol to day would prefer the changing despot- isms oi me aujoinmg repuuuc to the greater freedom and power of ours. Per haps there rs some reason for tlm feelinir. A lew Americans come here to get rich and many adventurers come here to use their eunning against the people, but scarce a movement has been made to ele vate them or give them an appreciation of the Government. Why should they feel attached to that which they know not of? Colorado has her papers, her easy means of trarel, and every new dis covery in her rich mountains is flashed through the land next day. The news is old at the latest from this region and the people look on New-Ncxico as an ex crescence a sort of wart on Cromwell's nose. And the few Americans here find living easy, the climate deligh tful, aud to them no necessity for labor. So we move ou, aud this the most inviting por tion of the whole country is neglected. I speak earnestly when I say, it is the duty of all whose province it is to inform the public to spread all reliable informa tion of this land through the country and cause an iuquiry into the resources of this land, which will be sure to result iu bringing capital, intelligent labor, and railroads to New-Mexico; and in return copper, iron, coal, silver, gold, lead and other minerals will pay as iu no other part of the Uuited States. The pastoral capacities are very little if at all behind Colorado, while the agricultural resources arc far ahead, on account of the lower elevation and warmer climate. The fol lowing facts about the copper mines of this region I obtained from Gcueral Carl ton, General Cleaver. Gov. 31 itcbell and personal observations. . i am sure the valuable information on copper mines wi! be as new to the majority of your readers as u was to cac. THE HANOVER MINE was discovered iu 1SG0.

Since tho close of the war the work has not been resumed, a the capital o: the .territory is limited and I'asteru capitalists know nothing about it The ore is "virgin" copper, found in , tensive pockets in the bed rock, varying iu quantities irom one to three hundred pounds. The amount in gold alloyed with it has been found sufficient to de fray all the'expensca of working. Thp cost of producing copper, in ris of twn hundred pounds, at this mine, was four cents per pound. Ihe ore exists in un limited quantities, and there is an ahnn dance of wood and water for working pur poses lor many years ot continued opera tion. The raino is owned by Messrs naruiog auu uicavcr.

They were discovered by Mr. Miller in 18G2, but as. there is no capital to work them," the discovery is like placing food just be yond the reach of a starving man. Spe cimens of copper from this mine arc now ou. exhibition here, and they are fully equal to the beautiful specimen in the United States Mint, Philadelphia, from the famous miues of the 4,Amygdaloid," Rake Superior.

Tls mine is owned, but "the joint stock company" has no capital to work itand as they invested but little in it, the owners must feel very happy iu their undeveloped wealth. The Naciemento mine is situated about forty miles south south west from Santa Fe, in the Losso Yallcs Mountains, iu the same range as the rich mineral region of the San Juan, Sandia. and Placer Mountains. The veiu is from thirty to forty feet wide and occa sionally intersected by deposits of white sandstone. A town was started near these mines, but the Iudians broke it up. So the Na ciemento mine, with all its wealth, serves as a look-out statiou for "Lo ! the poor Indiaus."

THE NEW MEXICO MINING COMPANY is the most extensive in the Territory and is under the able management of Dr. M. D. Stcck. The enterprises of the compa ny arc not limited to copper, which they have of fine quality and in great abund ance.

A DIIAW-BACIC. The great wealth and power of our na tion is to be attributed to our large nuui ber of intelligent small land holders, and Colorado's success is iu part due to the fact that the United States Homestead and Pre-emptbn laws are well carried out. Here it would be impossible to do so. Lntortunately a great part of the Terri tory is covered by old Spanish Grants, many ot which the Governuie-ut has rc l n i .i cognizca. inis nas thrown insmense quantities f land into the bauds of a few meu, who, uufortuuately, do not know how to add to its value and their wealth, by presenting the gieater part of it in small farms to those who desire to settle.
