The large patronage o this extensive eitahlisbmeut, demuuds quick work. A Runaway Enoini.-Od Friday morning last, as engin No. 128, i about ready to take a train westward over the '. ft E. Railroad, the engineer stepped Into tbs legrapb office In the upper yard for orders. returning he found that the fireman had open the valve and step sed on the trnder, whea t cotrpllng broke, sepa rating the engine from t train. In a second the engine was out of rer i, and pnssed over the bridges at lightning Sj ed. Telegraphic do spatches were at once s t to the different sta tions on the read with oiirs to switch the run away locomotive off the ti 'k. The despatch had scarcely reached Lewlsbut station when the lo comotive came along Iik4 mcteot. At Mlllon station the switch was tilled open Just in time, and the locomotive cie rushing over the switch Into the grnnnd mrly two sqnarei before It came to a bnlt, knot-Utg the sills Into splin ters, and making the sties, lnylue on the truck, fly In every direction. Hrtunatcly the mnll tralu which was about due atMlltmi, had not arrived. Had It been on the trnk at the time, It would have resulted In a serlofe loss of life. The mnll arrived about two mlmrs after the locomotive left the track. The gilge Indicated 168 ibs of steam enough tohnvlrun to Muncy station. What Is remarkable tit onglne nustnincd .but little damage, to Its nWilnery. The cow-catcher nnd forward truck werj completely demolished. A wreck crew was ldmedlatcly seut after the ruoawny engine from this place, and In run- nlog on the siding at Lewlabtrg station to clear the track for the, mail, a Mr. Joe. Bentley full from the wreck car, and had his leg broken nnd mutilated above the knee, by Coming In contact "k ,fc Wis, BcntlV was brounht to this i-essed by Dr. Haupt'. Thb runaway engine, on Trlday last, has been repaired and started on a trip on Monday last. Tub Triennial Asbesrbent. The assessor and assistant assessors of the East Ward In the borougb of Bnnbury, completed their lubors last week, In making the triennial assessment. As there has been considerable dissatisfaction In regard to assessments of property, the assessors In the cast ward this year, complied strictly with the law, nnd went together from property to property, to examine before tbey put tho valua tion upon It. Having nothing for a guide to go by, each one after looking nt the property, put down the amouut of valuation he placed npon It, and then they compared the figures, and when they differed, made au average of the valuation. This mode teemed to be the best to get at the real valuation. In former assessments one of the assessors would go round and note merely some- of tho Improvement, and then copy the rest from a former assessment book which In many Instances made the assessment very un equal. This has been the case in properties on Market street, which was assessed no higher than property located several squares nwny, when the former really would bring ten times the amount at a cash sale. We believe that it should be the duty of every assessor to adopt the course of the present assessors, us it will not only equalize the taxes, but will give more gen eral satisfaction to every property holder. Another new feature adopted by the assessors of the enst ward was the taking of. the census. In this way the census can be taken more cor- rectly, nnd It will coasuuie no extra time. In , the east ward the number of Inhabitants Is at I present 1633. It Is also ascertained that n large number hnd removed from that ward since the change on the railroads, and have gono to other parts. A Generous Bisiness Man. Wc lately visit ed the planing mills of Ira T. Clement, of this place, where we found everything moving as ifno panic had been heard of. The mills are running HI met! run l-lipucity, and nin ... nrravu men find regular employment. Mr. Clement ge nerously retained all bis hands when the panic started, aud as work slackened,' he found em ployment for them in building new houses lu dif ferent parts of the town. He has about thirty men employed, nnd though no Income from his lumber business, lie manages to keep them ut work to maintain their families during the win ter." This is certainly showing n most generous disposition If more of our wealthy men would follow Mr. Clement in this particular, there woulu be much less distress among those who nre dependent upon their labor for support, and the cry of hnrd times would not be heard on eve ry street corner. Mr. Clement Is also offering vacant lots for aulo at low prices for the purpose of getting other parties to build to create work, thus trying to extend his generosity still further. Drawing Lessons. Prof. Hardcastlo, who has been very successful in giving lebsons in drawing, in the north-east school house, is uow forming au udvanced class iu mechanical and perspective drawing aud shading, which will meet every Wednesday evening. Those who de sire to be correctly taught in this fine branch should make application at once. Prof. Hard caslle has bud large experience In drawing, both in Etigland and In this country, and has the best recommendations as a teacher. The lessons are given at a very reasonable price, so as to reach all classes of younit men who wish to perfect themselves ns master mechanics. We have a large uumber of these In this place, who shonld not fail to accept of this fine opportunity. An Unkind Cut. Tho following extract from the Wattotitouii Iteeord, edited by that fearless Democrat, John J. Auten, explains itself: "Toe Bunbury "Democrat." and Suuhurv Amerknn," are discussing the actions of the out-troiug and iu-toming Register and Recorders ol'tbis counly, relative to a pa i eel of blanks. It appears during the six year Leisenrlbg was in office, he got bis blanks printed In Philadelphia, una wuen nis term expired no nad nearly one huudred quire led, which be sold to Bhipmun. v e are a disinterested party in the matter, not having bad any business with Juke Lelsenriog cloce be shaved us a dollar on m county order. and from Shlpman we expect no patronage nor will we ask any favors. Getting those blanks In Philadelphia was one of i.eisenring s many mean. scurvy transactions, and Shipinan did himself no credit by tuklag them off bi bauds. At a meeting of the Washington Indepeudant Steam Fire Company, held January 1, 1874, the following officers were elected to serve for the eusnlng year t President Solomon Blrob. Vice President Geo.

Mr. McQaw ha but few quals at a caterer, and on this occasion all irouud the festive board, looked a happy as xlngs. We can heartily recommend Mr. Me 3aw's eating bouse as a novelty in the way of leanliuesa and good fare, aud beside, no liquor bang told, his place is quiet and orderly at all timet.

When ho returned he found his household goods iu great confusion and immediately arrest ed Wallace who was indicted for burglary.
