(Ei)C Scffcrsoninn. THURSDAY JULY 10, 1873. Potatoes, both the old and new crop, are raibcr scarce. New ones are selling at $2.40 per bushel, and old ones at $1 per bushel. Mr. Wii-son Deeher is at present en gaged in laying a substantial flag-stone walk in front of his property on Sarah street. The bridge at the upper end of town, over Pocono creek, stands sadly in need repairs. IIon. Wm. Davis, member of the Consti tutional Convention, will please accept Chinks for valuable public documents re Ceived. I A most refreshing rain fell in this section last Saturday. Such a visitation was much needed, and the weather since has been most deliciously cool and invigorating. -m- ; A large number of young ladies favored the down-town people with a vocal serenade one evening last week, taking their stand upon the bridge crossing McMichacl's creek. Jt was splendid," ladies, and we beseech you, "do o seme more." The fourth of July in Stroudsburg, a3was previously announced, passed off uproari ously quiet, almost everybody having left town Tor the purpose of enjojdng themselves. But on the 5th, oh, my! . Earn Burned. On Friday last, July 4 ih, a number of boys were patriotically engaged in snapping fire-crackers near the barn of Mr. Wm. Kunkle, in Polk township, near Kreseeviile, when the building took lire, and, with its entire contents, was con turned. The loss falls heavily on Mr. K. M;i. Samuel Buckley, residing in Stroud township, recently had eighty-six chickens, young and old, killed by dogs sixty-eight killed at enc time, and sixteen at another. We were of the opinion that it must have ln a mink that done the damage, but Mr. B. informs us that he caught a dog in the act, which he immediately killed. The chick ens were of a choice breed, and Mr. Buck ley estimates his loss at $40. Our townsman, Mr. Lewis Myers, recently met widi a painful accident at his saw-mill in Wayne county, in the following manner : lie was engaged in sawing with a circular mw, when his left hand came in contact with the same, completely severing the index linger above the secoud joint, and badly l ie-rating the second finger and thumb We ore pleased to announce that his wounds, though painful, are rapidly healing. A New Pastor. At a meeting of St. JuLa's Lutheran Congregation of this place, h-.!J at the Church, on Monday last, the ll:v. John. Kohler, ofTrappe, Montgomery county, Pa., was elected pastor. Mr. K. wi!l cme among us prccceded by a high ivj.u:;-t:on as an eloquent pastor, and an earnest worker in the cause of his Divine master. May his work prove prosperous lor the church, and the mean? of bringing many into the great family of practical chris tianity. Religious Notice. Rev. J. C.

Mr. W designs restocking the Store with a choice assortment of the very best goods in his line, and wnl, doubtless, soon secure for bis establishment an extensive and profitable run of trade. Real Estate Sales. The Assignee's Sale of the real estate of Mr. John Kresge, tt Eat Stroudburg, took place on Saturday iat, as previously announced. We append the names of the purchasers, together with the several amounts paid. The well known betel property wa3 sold to Mr. Samuel Fen ncr, for $5,9G0 ; one lot to Mr. L T. Puter Latigh, $50G; one let to Mary E.

The hearts of all hands in our office, were made glad, on Monday, and their palates, amazingly tickled, by a freezer cf delicious Ice Cream Bent in by our generous friend Hoff man.

We are requested to announce that the Uhestnuthiil iew Church, situated near Gilbert's post office, this county, and which is rapidly approach- in? completion, will bo dedicated to the service of Almighty God, on Saturday and Sunday, the 16th and 17th of August next Ministers from abroad, and the public generally, are cordially invited to participate in? the exercise!. Tiic 4 tit of July. Though the 4th was a dull day in Strouds Wr flmfc Rfaffl of thiuirs did not exist II ' W f this occasion, (we hoiunly) let patriotism fun and nrofit. slide, but other places took o r',r.U vW nf the matter, and made the day we celebrate a day of pleasure, and, mmM.-nf.-ilk' of course a day of no small pecuniary caiu. At Tannersvillc, there was a regular set celebration, with marchings, speeches, sing ing and the music from Organ and Brass Band, and the result was, every body there was happy, and, when the day closed, every one felt that he or she had not forgotten to do a full share, in making true the prophecy of the elder Adams that the day would be held as one for rejoiciug, and would be cele brated just as the Tanncrsvillers celebrated it. At East Stroudsburg the celebration was 'boiled down" to a festival for the benefit o a Sabbath School. Large numbers however. attended it; and while it proved a source pecuniary profit for the object for which it was held, it, at the same time, proved source of great pleasure to all who attended At Portland the day was celebrated under the au.-pices of the Knights of Pythias, and as the brethren of this particular branch the mystic tie never do things by halves, was well celebrated. Gen. Burnett, deliver ed a most admirable and appropriate oration on the occasion, and Chas. S. Detrick, Esq. in an impressive manner read the declara tion of Independence. The Portlanders seemed anxious to have everybody pleased with their entertainment, and were very suc cessful. But for the excessive heat which prevailed from midday until towards even ing, a more pleasant celebration than that at Portland could hardly have been met with A large number of our citizens joined with the Portland people in making the good time had, a time long to be remembered. At Washington. N. J., the day was also celebrated. Here hosts of Stroudsburgers Bethlchemites, Eastonians, and Lehigh Va ley folks generally, and Jerseymen particular ly united for the observance of the day. The celebration wis gotten up under the auspice of the United American Mechanics, and embraced a Parade, Speeches, Feasting Fireworks, and indeed everything calculated to make human beings h-tppy. The parade was pronounced, on all sides, splendid, but our folks, who were there; did not, on their return home, appear to be really carried away Ly much else that transpired. Indeed the word imparted on their return home smacked muchly of an experience of severa years ago, when plenty to pay and not inuc to be received therefore was the order of the day at Washington, N. J. At the Hotels Van Dorn's particularly a tolerable dinner was to be, and was had at reasonable rates, but the Committee who had charge of the ilfeed," and the general preparation in the Grove, appeared to be laboring, too severely, under an infliction of "make on the brain," to care properly for the comfort and satisfaction oftheinnerman, or the safety cf the outcrman. The general complaint of hunger, after rising from the feast, and breaking down of the platform, erected with a 1G foot hemlock fence board, tacked with a very few 8 penny naib, for support, and by which several were badly, and one, at least, dangerously if not fatally hurt, attest this. For such carelessness Committeemen should be prosecuted, and, on conviction be vigorously punished. Com mittees have no right to invite people from near and far to come among them, and spend their money, and then spread a trap to endanger their limbs and lives. There was no excuse for the accident at Washington on the 4th, unless the question able one existed, which we do not of course believe, that an arrangement had been made with doctors, undertakers and grave diggers, for a division of the spoils, which might arise from the breaking down of so pestilent a platform as was that in the grove on the 4th which could not bear the weight of a dozen persons men, women, and children all told. After the excitement occasioned by the accident had subsided, the" proceedings at the Grove were entered into with spirit, and proved very interesting. Maj. Howell's Oration and Miss Gallagher's readings were worth going many mile3 to listen to, and others who contributed to the enjo3'ments of the occasion, in a literary way acquitted themselves well indeed. In our comments above we intend no reflec tion cither upon the U. A. M. brethren, nor upon the citizens of Washington generally. The management of the Committees having the celebration in charge showed great lack of fitness for the positions to which they were apj)ointcd, and to their mismanagement must be attributed all the complaint which so. freely found vent on the grounds and elsewhere. As we said before, nothing was done in fctroudsburg, by way of celebrating. The boys both big and little did the cracking business to perfection, but our folks general ly who remained at borne took matters coolly and in remembrance and silence only held the day in veneration. We do not know but that they were best off after all. . In Lancaster county there are eighteen lodges of Odd Fellows, with a member ship of 1,267.

The duel was. fought with double barreled shot guns, loaded with ball, the distance being forty paces. It is understood that Rhett was the challenger. The affair grew out of an article in the Picayune, and a reply thereto by Coolcy, published in the Times. In the case of the Commonwealth vs George O. Evans, involving commissions for the collection of State War claims, the Supreme Court has reversed the decision of Judge Pearson, of Dauphin county, and ordered a venire Javias de nove. in announcing this decision Judge Sharswood said, 44Kvans was bound by law to make a prompt report of this col lections, and even if requested verbally by Governor Geary to omit making such report.as alleged by the defendant, the Governor had no authority to release a State agent from his. official duty or the conditions of his bond." Young Walworth, who was convicted of murder in the second degree, for kill ing hi3 father, in New York, was ou Saturday sentenced by Judge Davis to imprisonment for life, at hard labor. It was the general expectation, and indeed the hope of many, that this young parricide would escape with a very light punishment if not with a clear aeouittal. The actual result, so speedily reached, tends to show that even in New York there is some ribk incurred in killing men. There are twenty or thirtv mur. dertrs now in the Toabs, awaiting the action of the Courts. MISCELLANEOU The Masonic order in this country was established at Reading in 1794.

B Rhett and Judge Cooley, at New Orleans, on the 30th ult., in which the latter was killed, having been shot in or near the heart. The quarrel grew out of some political misunderstanding, and these "chivalric" fire-caters selected this old fashioned Southern method of settling the matter. The duel was fought with double barreled shot guns. The account states that after the second fire 'the gentlemen engaged in the affair ex changed the usual civilities, and separa ted with the expression of mutual regard and consideration." We presume the man Knelt is one of the fire caters of that name who figured so conspicuously daring the war, and who were ever ready to shoot, stab or otherwise kill anybody who opposed "secesh." Isn't it about time that such murderers were attended to, even if they are in a murderous coun try?

In an editorial discussion of the busi ness outlook the New York Times savs .1. ..... - mat commercial anatrs are now unusually stagnant. Trade is dull, rents are high, large losses have been sustained . by the fall of prices of important articles, and people are buyiug only for immediate wants. The times are "hard." am Kmc! p ness men are growing cautious. The time when fortunes could be made in a day has passed. Yet all this is having a good effect. The currency is steadily approach ing a specie basis, and its purchasing power is increasing. Imports are diminish ing and exports are advancing, so that the latter almost balance the former. We have a prospect of good crops of grain and cotton, for which Europe is sure to offer a steady market. Our government bonds are in great request abroad, and our credit is high. . These facts secure us against serious financial distress. It is the merchants and traders, who depend upon commerce, and not the producers and manufacturers, who are likely to be pinched. The Times thinks that the money market this fall will be less stringent than it has been" for three years past, that Europe is more likely to send us gold than to call it away,- and that there is reasoa to expect a fair business icason.
