Fall or Bctteb. On Saturday last, while a
keg of butter was being pnt on the train, the
hold of one of the men slipped and the keg and
its contents were spilled upon the road. As
there was not sufficient fibre to hold it together,
and being strong enough, it took to running
around on the track, compelling the amicable
baggage master at the depot to resort to stilts to
pat the baggage into the cars.
A bot about twelve years of age, named Mar

The latest estimate by the railroad companies is
thnt about 800,000 baskets will be shipped from

Tub Centennial of Chemistry. The one
hundredth anniversary of Dr. Joseph Priestley's
brilliant discovery of Oxygen, will be celebrated
at Northumberland en Saturday the 1st of Au
trust, when a re-nuion of American Chemists
will take place for mutual exchange of ideus and
observation. The meeting of so large a body of
distinguished men In our neighboring town, will
be e.u important event, and the occasion long to
be remembered. - The name of Priestly has been
remembered in this vicinity from the timo of its
earliest scttlcre. The family connection arc not as
large as might be supposed, as but few of that
name arc living, two great grand sons, Dr. Jos.
Priestley, and Marks B. Priestly, atd two great
grand daughters, ladies highly esteemed and re
spected wherever known. Joseph K. Priestley,
a gruud sou of Dr. Jos. Priestley, whose name is
to be commemorated on this ocensiou by some of
the most eminent men in America ii. the sci
eucc of Chemistry, acted for many years as Cash
ier of the Bauk of Northumberland, whicb,uud(r
his able management, aud through his integrity
and business habits, gained a reputatian equal to
any other bauk in the Uuitcd States. He died
suddenly at Reading, Pa., about fifteen years
ago.
Dr. Joseph Priestley, at whose tomb the cen
teunial of Chemistry will be celebrated, was born
at Ficldhead, near Leeds, England. O. S. Cham
bers Encyclopaedia, speaks of. his early career
as follows :
'"Priesti.et, Joseph, son of Jonas Priestley, a
cloth-draper at Fieldbcad, near Leeds, was born
at Ficldhead on 13th March, 1733, 0.S. Ilis mo
ther having died when he was six years old, he
was adopted by an aunt, by wnom he was sent
to a free school. There he learned Latin und
Greek. During vacation, he taught himself va
rious languages, both ancient and modern. For
some time lie was obliged to abandou his stu
dies, owing to weak health : be then betook him
self to mercantile pursuits. With returning
strength, his literary studies were resumed, and
successfully prosecuted at a dissenting academy
at Daveutry under Mr. (afterwards Dr.) Ash-
worth, successor to Dr. Doddridge. Though his
father and aunt were strong Calviuists, their
house was the resort of many men who held very
different opinions ; and the theological discus
sions which he was ic tbe habit of hearing, seem
to have had uinch effect on young P. : before he
was 1H, be calls himself rather a believer in the
doctrines of Anniuius, but adds : I had by no
means rejected the doctrine of the 1 runty or
that of tbe Atonement.' Before leaving borne,
be wished to join a Caivanistic communion, but
be was refused admission, tbe ground of refusal
being, that he had stated doubts as to the liabi
litv of the whole human race to tbe 'wrath of
God and pains of bell for ever.' During his re
sidence at the academy, be conceived himself
called on to renounce nearly all the theological
aud metaphysical opinions of his youth. I
came,' belays. to embrace what Is called the
heterodox side of every question.' In 1755, he
became minister to a small congregation at Need-
bam Maikel, m Suffolk, with an average salary
of 30 per annum. While here he composed bis
work entitled Scripture Doelnnt of JCcnustxon,
rhich uhatct that tin Dtath of Christ i no proper
Sacnjlce nor Satisfaction Jor Sin. liis leading
theological doctiine seems to have been, that the
Bible is indeed a divine revelation, made from
God to man through Christ, himself a man aud
no more, nor claiming to be more. He seems to
have rejected all theological dogmas which ap
peared to him to rest solely upou the interpreta
tion put upon certain passages of the Bible by
ecclesiastical authority. Even the fundamental
doctrines of the Trinity and of the Atonement he
did not consider as warrautcd by Scripture,
when read by the light of his own heart aud un
derstanding. It does not, however, appear that
these doctrinal errors produced any morally evil
results. He not only contrived to live ou .30 a
year; but by adding a little to his income by
nieans of teaching, hs was enabled to purchase
a variety of instruments to help him iu his scien-
fic studies. In 17oS, he quitted Ncedham for
Nantwieh ; and in 1701 he removed to Warring
ton, where he was appointed successor to Mr.
(afterwards Dr.) Aikin, as teacher of lauguages
and. belles-lettres. At Warrington, he married
Miss Wilkinson, a lady of great talent and aini
nfcility. Here his literary career may be said
first fairly to have begun. A visit to London
led to his making tbe acquaintance of Franklin
and of Dr. Price. Jbe former supplied him with
book which enabled him to write his fittory and
State of Electricity, published in 1707. It was
followed by a work on Vinion. Light and Colour.
In 1762, he published his Theory of Language
and Vnirertal Grammar. Ia K06, he was made
a member of the Royal Society, and a Doctor of
Laws by tbe unirersity of Edinburgh. In the
following year, he removed to Miilhill, near
Leeds, where be was appointed minister of a dis
senting chapel. rc fact of a brewery being be
ing betide his dwelling gave a new direction to
bis energetic and versatile mind ; he began to
stndy pneumatic chemistry, publishing various
important works connected with this science.
No oue,' says Dr. Thomson, 'ever entered on
the study of chemistry with more disadvantages
than Dr. Priestley, and yet few have ocenpied a
more dignified station iu It.' While at Leeds, he
agreed to accompany Captain Cook on his se-,
eond voyage; but certain ecclesiastics having ob
jected to the latitude of his theological views, the
Board of Longltnde refused to sanction the ar
rangement, and be did not go. In 1773, he w as
appointed librarian and literary companion to
Lord Shelburn, with a salary of 250 per annum,
and a separate residence. He accompanied the
earl on a continental tour in the year 1774. Hav
ing been told by certain Parisian savans that he
was tbe only man tbey bad ever known, or any
understanding, who believed in Christianity, be
wrote, in reply, the Letttrt to a Philotophical I Tn- I
believer, and various other works, containing cri
ticisms on tbe doctrines ofUnineand others. His
public position was rather a hard one ; for while
laughed atln Paris as a believer, nt home he was
branded as an atheist. To escape the odium
arising from the latter impntation, he published,
in 1777, his Divpttiition Relating to Matter atid
Spirit. In this work, while he partly material
ises spirit, he at tbe same time partly spiritual- J
iscs matter. He holds, however, that our hopes
of resnnection must rest solely on the truth of
the Christian revelation, aud that on science they
have no foundation whatever. Tbe doctrines of
Revelatiou and a Resurrection appear with
him to have supported one another. He believ
ed in a Revelation, because it declared a Resur
rection ; and be believed In a Resurrection, be
cause he found it declared in the Revelatiou. On
leaving Lord Shelbnm, he' became minister of a
dissenting chapel at Birmingham. The publica
tion, in 1786, of his JlMory of Farly Opinion
concerning Jetu Chrint, occasioned the renewal
of a controversy, which had begun in 1778, be
tween him and Dr. Uorseley, concerning the doc
trines of Free Will, Materialism and Unitarian
ism. Tbe victory in this controversy will proba
bly be awarded by most men iu accordance with
their own precouceived views on theqnestious at
Issue. His reply to Burke s Refiection on the
French Revolution led to bit being made a citizen
of tbe French Republic ; and this led to a mob
on tbe occasion breaking into his house, and de
stroying all its contents, book 6, manuscripts,
scientific Instruments, ivc. He states that the
sum awarded to him as damage fell 2000 short
of the actual pecuniary loss. A brottier-in-law,
however, about this time left him 10,000, with
an annuity of 200. In 1701, he succeeded to tbe
charge at Hackney, which had become vacant
by the resignation of Dr. r nee. tie did not re
main long here, however. His honestly-avowed
opinions had made him as unpopular as an ho
nest avowal of opinions generally does. lie re
moved to America where he was received with
respect, if not with enthusiasm. He had the of
fer of the professorship of Chemistry at Philadel
phia, which be declined. I tie located in .orlli-
uinberlatid soon after with several other Englit-h
families of prominence. In 1 96 his wife died.
To the day of hi death be continued to pursue
his literary and scientific pursuits witn as much
ardour as he bad shown at any period of his ac
tive life, ne died Ctb February, 1S04 expressing
bit satisfaction with his haviug led a life so use
ful, aud his confidence in immortality.
He was a man of irreproachable moral and do
mestic character, remarkable for zeal for truth,
patience aud serenity of temper. lie appears to
have been fearless in proclaiming his convictions
whether theological, political or scientific."
A meeting of the citizens of Sunbnry was held
iu tbe Court House on last Thursday evening, to
take action to build au ncademv. On motion,

The semi-annual sessiou of the Junior Order
of United American Mechanics was held at Dan
ville.on Tuesday and Wednesday last. A large
number of delegations from all parts of the State
were in attendaucc. A great procession passed
through the streets on Tuesday, forming a mag
nificent sight nnd eliciting much applause. In
the evening a grand banquet and ball for the
benefit of the visiting delegations came off.
A drcm coups from Lykens, Upper Dauphin,
stopped at this place several hours, on Monday,
on their way to Danville to participate in the pa

Oars on the Susquehanna. The boat and
tub races came off on Friday evening last, as was
announced, and were witnessed by several thou
sand people. There were four races : tub race,
experienced oarsmen, amateurs, and double oars.
The tub race created much merriment lor the
spectators. Four entered, viz: Wm. Israel,
Jesse Andrews, M. Rawn and Wm. Blair. At
G.45, they being iu readiness, started in the man
ner of 'every man must paddle his own canoe,'
nnd at the same time there was a grand overt urn,
tubs up and occupant down, and a new start was
lakeu every time this happened until oue succeed
ed hi reaching the specified point and was declar
ed the victor. Great agility was displayed in
reaching tbo starting point anew, with tub iu
hand. Ducking was frequent for at least an
hour. Mr. Israel succeeded in safely reaching
the place designated as tbe line for the victor to
cross, about oue buudred yards distant.
The experienced oarsman's race came off next:
six entries for the race. The rowing dibtance
bciug half a mile up tbe river and return. Mr.
Gouglcr of Shamokin Dam, came out ahead ;
Krohu, second; Ray, third ; Philips, fourth;
Hopper, fifth, and Tmtt, sixth. Gouglcr receiv
ed the principal prize oue barrel of flour ;
Krohn, the second, a pair of gold sleeve buttons.
The third race, amateurs ; three entries : Ja-
coby, Westlall and Auraud. Mr. Auraud, of
Shamokin Dam, curried ofl the prize, a cham
pion flag.
The. fourth race was between three double oar
ed boats. The prize, a silver cup, was won by
Messrs. Krohn and Frymire.
During tbe races the river bank prescntci a
lively appearance, being lined with people for at
least a quarter of a mile. Forty boats, fully oc
cupied, were counted in the, vicinity of the race.
All on shore and river manifested intense inte
rest iu the competitors as they passed up and
down the river. The sail boat "Hattie," was
also out, under full sail, filled with passengers.
While the races were in progress the greatest en
thusiasm prevailed. The waters were calm and
the weather clear, which added greatly to the
exciting amusement to all concerned. A num
ber of strangers were noticed who were some
what enraptured with our scenery, our river and
our aquatic races.
Postponed. The sale of the Limestone aud
farm property, situate about two and a-half
miles above the borough of Northumberland, in
Point township, has been postponed until Mon
day the 27ih inst., at 2 o'clock p. in. The sale
will take place on the premises. Tbe lands con-
;iiu limestone and other minerals, inexhaus
tible limestone quarries have been ojened on the
ands, and a lateral railway leading to the P. fc
E. R. R. built for an outlet to market. Tbe rail
road switches, sidings, Ac, will aiso be iucluded
iu the sale of the lanis. There will also be sold
at the same time a tract of land wheroou is erect
cd a good dwelling house and barn. The lime
stone of these lands is of the first quality, and
the quantity inexhaustible. These tracts are
very valuable, and will be sold on liberal terms.
The purchaser, whoever lie may be, will no doubt
make a handsome barraiu, as the lands arc be
coming daily more valiiable on account of their
mineral productions.
The correspondent of the .Vitfoniun whose
language in reference to the celebration In the
Park on the 4th we copied verbatim, tries to play
the role of innocence. Last week he wrote a com
munication to the Oa-.eUe and a letter to the
Jfillouian, and we "would not bo surprised at all
if he held in possession au "aJJSihwiC from some
one proving his iniioceuce. He first says that
we "nndertook to distort his language," and
then adds "our reference to the matter was
merely a joke, not knowing at the lime that any
of our well-to-do German citizens bail anything
to do with the celebration.'"' This looks like
hitting a mau on the cheek, and theii patting
him to make him believe it was all a joke, thus
concealing his intentions to avail hlmsolf of some
future opportunity to smack the other cheek.
The fact Is that the correspondent was prompted
to write as he did in consequence of one of our
most respectable German citizens having asked
him to contribute something towards the project,
and to whom ho geneeowsbj contributed the libe
ral sum of fifty cent. Our ruuiarks were not
made through any malice as the correspondent
prefers. We arc too well informed of his tricks
to take umbrage at nny of his waywardness
which we suppose is tbe result of hi nature.
The stabbing of our citizens in the dark by this
correspondent, has been frequent, xlad we a
few more such correspondents, Sunbnry would
soou become a doomed town. His denial of the
real intent of his scribbling by saying it was a
joke, might have done well enough for Tom Col-
ins, but it is not in good keeping with Elder
of modern times : particularly those who assist
in the services of the sanctuary. Aspirants to
legislative honors should be more discreet in
matters in which the whole community nre inte
rested. A Fine Enoine. Our citizens along Third
street witnessed a !cautiful sight on last Friday
evening. Soon after the 7 o'clock train passed
northward, a locomotive came np the road most
beautifully and tastefully trimmed with flower
wreaths and flags. The cntrine came from
Miilersburg, where it had been trimmed for the
special .occasion of takiug the scholars aud
teachers of tbe Evangelical Suuday School of
that place on a pic nic excursion to Dauphin 'on
Saturday. The engine was lit charge of C. M.
Stewart, oue of the most cajcful engineers ou a
railroad, and we learn was decorated by the
member of class 36, of which he is au active
member In the school. The excursion party on
Saturday, numbered some six hundred ersous,
who, beiDg drawn over the road by such a hand
some machine, mt have felt happy.
WellManoed. The machine, shops of the
Pennsylvania railroad compauy, at this place,
are admirably managed by tbe Superintendent,
Martin Walls, Esq. Every department is con
ducted with precision and everything moves
along regular. Mr. Alonzo Dolbcer, foreman iu
tbe machine shop, is constantly kecpiug an eye
open, and watches closely that everything made
n the shops is turned out iu first-class condition.
He is a splendid mechanic. In the carpenter
shops, Mr. Mason, an able and experienced
workman, superintend the work iu a most sat
isfactory maimer. In the offices the most effi
cient clerks are found, polite and accommo
dating. The shops present a lively appearance
despite the hard times. About two hundred
hands arc employed around tin: shops, and all
arc busy from the superintendent down to the
wijiing boys.
Anniversary. Monday evening, July 20th,
being the first anniversary of W. C, No. 194,
P. O. S. of A., the room was well filled with
members of the order. After the regular order
of business of tbe evening, the Camp were hap
pily surprised by Rev. G. W. Hempeiley, of
Camp No. 19, stepping into the centre of the
room, and iu a neat and appropriate address,
and in behalf of Camp No. presented Camp
No. 194 with a very handsome quarto Bible,
which was responded to by members of the
Camp. The following resolutions were adopt
ed: Whereas, W. C, No. 1H4, P. O. S. of A., have
been the happy recipients of a very handsome
quarto Bible lrom Camp No. 19, on the evening
of, our first anniversary, a present which we
prize for its great value, and tbe precious truth
it contains, we deeply appreciate the interest
manifested in us by Camp No. 19; therefore
Jinolved. That we tender onr most heartfelt
thanks to Camp No. 19, who have so kindly pre
sented to us such a precious present; and that we
assure you that we will be guided by its Holy
Precepts, aud ever keep iu renicmbrar.ee the

It is really amusing to see the consistency and
woudi rful ability displayed by Mr. Hottenste-.n
and Mr. Eichholtz in dissecting the County Au
ditors' Report of 1873. The comments on the do
cument almost enables Mr. Eichholtz to dis
pense for a season with his 'Patent Outsides.'
We 6hall note, as a matter of curiosity, a few of
the leading points taken by Mr. Holteustiue iu
his first onslaught ou the County Treasurer and
Auditors. He undertakes to convince Mr. Eich
holtz iu 5 minutes time (provided, he Eichholtz,
made no mistake iu copy) that tbe late Treasu
rer. Mr. Cadwallader, went out of office with
some 7,So2 G3 of public money in bis pocket,
and should be made to refund both principal aud
interest to the county. He arrives at his figures
in the following iuircuious way : He takes the ex
cess of receipts above expenditures 11,072 75
nnd subtracts the 1 rcasurer s indebtedness on
settlement 13,240 12 from said amount, which
produces his figures $7,832 63. This sum, in his
dillereut communications, has been made to va
ry, sometimes higherand sometimes lower. Now
let us apply Mr. ilottenstinc's rule to tbe Audit
of 1872, and we will find thai the excess of ex
penditures above receipts was $810 64, and yet
on settlement with tbo Treasurer, the Auditor's
found him indebted to the couuty f 3,477 62. Then
according to Mr. Uotlenstinc's method, Mr. Cad
wallader should have received the $810 64 in
stead of paying in addition to that sum $3,477 62,
consequently Mr. Cadwallader must have been
wronired to the amount of 4,294 zb. Now, does
any sane person suppose that a man with tbe bu
siness qualifications of Mr. Cadwallader, a man
who knew at the close of every day's transac
tions bow he stood in account with tbe county,
would have submitted to such an act of injustice
to himself ? Vet, according to Mr. Hotteustiue, I
that would have been the mode of settlement. I
The Board of County Auditors also fell uuder
the ban of Mr. Ilottenstinc's displeasure, be
cause they dared to make some explanatory re
marks regarding extraordinary expenses incur
red by the county during 1873. Those explana
tions were no part or the report, but simply at
tached after the signing of the certificate, ne
at once saw a terrible political bug-bear behind
these explanations. He calls them absurd,
bungling, contemptible, and seemed to cxhan6t
his vocabulary of Words to paint them in their hi
deous enormity. This seemed very unnecessary
on the part of Hottenstcin, when we reflect that
we are living in an eulightcncd age, when every
tax-payer can read, and form his own opinions
on such matters. But now mark the consistency
in this crusade against the Auditors. Later iu
the discussion, .Mr. Eichholtz also became an
"interested party," and after the County Audi
tors met for a further explanation, explanations,
(official in character,) not in order to satisfy
Messrs. Hot tenstlne and Eichholtz, well knowing
the impossibility of convincing men against tbeir
will aud iutcrest, but simply to further explain
to the public those points iu the report which
were attacked. Upon those explunatious beiug
made, Mr. Eichhol'.z burls particnlar thunder at
the Auditors because those explanations were
not made at the time of tbe settlement with tbo
Treasurer. Mr. Uottenstine abuses the Auditors
for making explanations ; Mr. Eicbbolts de
nounces them for not making more explanations :
hard taskmasters, these gentlemen !
The County Auditors never laid any claim to
infallibility ; they are liable to errors with the
rest of humanity Messrs. Uottenstine and
Eichholtz aloue excepted. But in their late au
dit they have given satisfactory proof to every
unprejudiced miud, that their report is and al
ways was correct. It seems like very small bu
siness to attack public men merely from political
motives, and to accuse men of rascality who
have takeu an oath to perform their duties faith
fully aud impartially, is a very grave and
serious charge, it would be possible for County
Auditors, ir required by law, and public demand,
to publish every order issued by the County
Commissioners. It would perhaps be a little
difficult to explain the object or every order
granted to tbe satisfaction of some parties Iu the
county. They might perhaps demand to know
the precise geographical localitf where every
fox was caught loi whos? scalp the Commission
ers granted an order on the Treasurer, &e ; but
in thttl way general satisfaction might jterhaps
be obtained. The cost of auditing and publish
ing such a report would be a trine to good econo
mists. We arc certain by comparing annual re
ports with our sister counties, thai Northumber
land county reports are as full auc complete as
any we see. .Mr. tiehuoltz cau see uotulng
more than a simple demand from Mr. Ilotten-
etine for information from tbe County Auditors
which he or any other lax-payer bad a right to
make. We would ask any unprejudiced man to
read the articles of Mr. Hottcunlne, and If there
is not malice or contempt in almost every sen
tence, we know nothing about the meaning of the
T- t: . i 1 1 i . . ... . . .. . . .
r.uiisu language. tv nab uu bucu term u ig
noramus,' 'asses,' 'dolls and' the like, which are
freely used, mean 1 if this is gentlemanly lan
guage, nillliunism must be terrible when reduced
to writing. If Mr. Uottenstine had been in quest
of information regarding facts of tbe report be
yond bis comprehension, and bad approached
either or tbe auditors with common decency,
they would no doubt have satisfied him to the
best or their ability. Ouye of the auditors has
been in connection with tbe Board for seven
years iu succession, and for accuracy iu accounts
has few superiors ; he certaiuly should under
stand auditing in that length of time. Tbe en
tire board f auditors are fully competent to per
form the dnties devolving upon tbem. And
should Mr. Uottenstine ever be called upon by
the people of the county to be one f tbe board
or auditors, he will find that it will require all
his gigantic intellectual powers, to make a cor
rect statement of all the transactions or the
county during one year.
It will be impossible for Messrs. Uottenstine
and Eichholtz to obliterate this fact from tbe
county records, that during tbe year 1873, tbe
couuty indebtedness amounting to nearly $20,
000 00 has leeu paid off. That the paying of In
terest on couuty indebtedness has ceased ; nnd
that the system of allowing collectors or county
taxes vcars upon years to settle up their dupli
cates has also censed. Iu former settlements
with county treasurers, we would find from 40 to
SC.0,000 00 or outstanding taxes ; now, when we
examine the late report or 1873, and find only
$5,275 65 outstanding ou the 3d of January,
1874, we feel like joiniug with the auditors iu
their detached explanations, iu congratulating the
tax-parcrs of the county on the excellent man-
uceineutor the Commissioners in bringing about
such a desirable result. J. K. M.
