A Nutsaxce. Mr. E. II. Weeks has an
establishment at the lower end of town, near
the iron bridge, and is engaged in trying out
old bones, fur the manufacture of a certain
kind of grease or oil. Now, when it becomes
known that the effluvia arising therefrom is
extremely offensive to the nasal organs of
those residing in the vicinity of his manufac
tory, it may safely be declared a nuisance,
and he should be compelled to remove it at
once.
To ALL "WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. At an
adjourned meeting of the class of East Peun
pylvariia of the Reformed Church in the
United States, held in Catasauqua, June 17,
1S73, the undersigned was appointed tempor
ary pastor of the Hamilton reformed charge.
The undersigned would therefore announce,
in this public way, that, God willing, there
will be English preaching in the Reformed
Church in Cherry Valley, on Sunday, July
s , 1 if t 1 .1 f an
in, auuo ciock in tue iorenoon. All are
invited to attend. D. E. Sciioedler.
A FEW evenings since we very reluctantly
found ourself a listener to a rather spirited
discussion between a number of young ladies
on one of our back streets, relative to the
merits, demerits, and general composi
tion, of that necessary article of female
wearing apparel termed a bustle.
Any number of old shoes, rag-bags, news
paiters, ect., ect, were spoken of during the
conversation. However, as the subject was
not intended for our cars, and as it is at
best a delicate one the bustle, we mean
we shall drop it as we would the business
end of a wasp.
On Monday last the new Pennsylvania Air-
Jjine to Baltimore, ashiugton, and the South
was opened for travel. From Philadelphia it
runs through Lancaster to Columbia, where
the Susquehanna River is crossed, and
thence, by way of York, to Baltimore. The
great tunnel under that city being completed,
passengers are now carried through without
the tedious delays attending the transfer by
horse-power. Throughout the road is double
track, laid with steel rails and stons ballast.
This route follows very closely on the one so
long aud zealously advocated iu Congress by
by Thaddeus Stevens, as the National Air
Line between Washington City and New
York. Two express trains w ill be run entire
between New York and Washington daily.
Religious Notice. llcv. J. C. Julius
Kurtz, ofTamaqua, Schuylkill county, Pa.,

1873, English in the foreuoon and German

denominations, and the public generally, are
cordially invited to attend.

At an early hour on Tuesday morning lust,
a gentleman and lady, who follow umbrella
repairing for a livelihood, got into an alter
nation in front of Conner's meat market, and
during the melee they worked themselves
into the meat market. 3Ir. C. hustled them
out, when they left. After loitering about
the streets for an hour or more they again
renewed hostilities in front of the Strouds-
burg House. At this juncture officer Keener
arrived, and, taking the combatants into
custody, furnished them quarters in the
Hotel 'de Troch.
The question has often been asked by
those interested, "can I have my gray hair
restored to its natural color, without coloring
the skin? andean my thin locks be thickened
up; we answer, it can; and would advise
vou to read a treatise on the hair, which is
published by H. P. Hall & Co., Nashua, N
H., who send it free, upon application.
They arc the proprietors of Hall's Vegetable
Sicilian Hair Benewcr. We learn from it,
the hair, in a perfect state of health, is con
stantly falling out, and new hairs grow from
the same tubes; but, in case of any disease o
the scalp, or by the use of alcoholic prepara
tions, the hair-tube becomes contracted at it
mouth, and prevents the new follicle from
reaching the surface. Their preparation
will create a perfectly healthy condition of
the scalp, and, by its tonic properties, wil
preserve and strengthen the roots of the hair.

Investments. Railroad securities afford
probably the best form of investments now
available for safety of income, whether o
small savings or considerable capital. The
promissory obligations of a strong, well-man
aged corporation, based on property rapidly
improving in value, which earns large returns,
making the paj'uicnt of high rates of intercs
reasonably easy and certain, may well com
mand confidence and attract investors. Rail
road bonds are usually a mortgage on the
road, its cars, buildings, ect. This pledge
is considered so amply sufficient that often a
second mortgage is issued, after the first has
been placed. Roads endowed by Congress
with a certain number of acres per mile from
the public lands along their lines, have o'i
late years issued what are called "Land
Grant" bonds, being a mortgage on these
lands, independent of any liens on the road
These Land Grant bonds have also been
favorite investment and have been consider
ed as safe as real estate mortgages, generally
A third form of railroad security is the in
come bond, predicated on the net income
profits and earnings of the road ; and these
too, have stood fairly in the market In
another column will be a found notice of the
seven-thirty bonds of the Northern Pacific
Railroad, one of the grandest undertakings
of the age and one that is being conducted
with energy and economy toward unquestion
able success. The bonds of this Company
combine in a single lieu every one of the ele
mcnts of security which give substance to the
three separate forms of mortgage above men
tion cu. I hey are anrst-class mortgage
bond, a land grant bond and an income
bond, all in one.
The seventeenth anuual excursion of the
New Jersey Editorial Association, which
culminated at the Delaware Water Gap on
Saturday morning last, was, we learn,
graud and very enjoyable affair throughout
The party, numbering about two hundred
arrived at the Gap on Tuesday, 24th inst,
and immediately repaired to the Water Gap
House, where they were generously cared for
by the Messrs. Brodhcad. After despatch
ing the business of the Association, the
excursionists enjoyed themselves in variou
ways during the remainder of their staj-, and
we are of the opinion that it would have been
a difficult matter for them to have selected
a more romantic spot for their excursion, or
one better adapted to a "feast of reason and
a flow of soul." The elaborate and com mo
dious hotels, the many points of interest in
the immediate vicinity, together with some
of the finest landscape and water scenery to
be seen any where, all combine to make the
Delaware Water Gap a very desirable resort
for excursionists. Governor Parker, of New
J ersey accompanied the party. On Wednes
day evening a dinner was served at the
Water Gap House, that would certainly have
tickled the palate of the most fastidious epicu
rean. After the feast was over toasts were
offered and responded to, though in confor
mity with an established rule at the Water
Gap House, no wines nor liquors were on
the table. On Thursday evening a grand
ball was given at the Kittatinny House, the
festivities of winch were kept up until a lat
hour, and was highly enjoyed. We sincere
ly regreted our inability to accept the invita
tion extended by the Executive Committee
to join them in their pleasures, and we are
highly gratified to learn that everything per
taming to the excursion passed off so pleas
antly and satisfactorily to all concerned. A
number of the gentleman dropped into our
ouiceon lhursday afternoon, aud we found
them to be exceedingly peasant in their
manners, and easy iu conversation. May
their shadows never grow less.

Recent developments have been made
in New York in relation to the large class
of Italian children who are daily travel
ling the streets of our cities and towns as
itinerant musicians, that are attracting
considerable attention. It appears that
these children are actually bought o
poor parents in Italy , -and taken off to
other countries bv their purchasers, where
they arc employed to travel about and to
beg, sing or ?teal, and to hand the pro
cecds over regularly to those having them
in charge. 1 his infamous traffic has
grown to such proportions ns to attract th
attention of the authorities in some of the
European countries : and England and
France have enact-'d laws which prohibi
the introduction of these little elaves into
those countries. The result of this has
been that nearly all of them are sent over
to New lork, and are distributed from
that city all over the country. Growing
up under such evil influences, and with
out education or moral culture, it is not
strange that they become schooled in
vice, and go to swell the ranks of the dan
rt-y i t . 1 1
gerous classes in society, ine itaiiian
consul in New lork, and others of his
countrymen in that city, have expressed
their intention to do all they an to sup
press this traffic. It is stated that the
Italian government has taken the matter
in hand, and it is expected that the Uni
ted States will co operate in the effort to
break up this nefarious business.
