Anniversary of the Goethian ,Society.—The
Goethian Society, a German Literary Society of
Muldenburg College, celebrated Its first anniver
sary, at the Court House, on Thursday evening
last. The large hall was filled with an Intelligent
and appreciative audience which manifested Its
Interest by oft ,repeated applause. After the
opening exercises by the Rev. S. K. Brobst, ten of
the memberS delivered as many original and se
lected essays, recitations, &c. While , it would be
unfair to particularize among so many good efforts,
we cannot refrain from expressing our admiration
of the ability manifested by all, especially as this
was the first time that the Society has given a
public entertainment.
Some few remarks by Dr. G. Kellner, of Phila
delphia, and Rev. Prof. Wilken, Of Honesdale,

The subject chosen is—" Das Grosse Weltgericht
am Wellende." Mr. Neltz is one of the most
eminent nod popular of pulpit orators connected
with the Evangelical church, and is capable of
handling his subjects with a master hand. Pos
sessing great powers of elocution and widely re
puted for the judgment he displays In his selections
for.the entertainment of his hearers, Rev. Neltz
will 'no doubt make an address in this city that
will not only be entertaining but edifying. Tick
ets of admielon, 25 cents. Doors open at 7 o'clock
lecture commences at 8 o'cloCk.
An Assurance. —Some persons have' ex
pressed their belief that Tits REGISTER gives such
an extraordluary amount of reading limiter awe
only for the purpose of increasing Its subscriptiup
list, and that after we run up our list a thousand
more, it will be covered with pictures of huge
stoves, cows, horses, boots, shoes, etc., and our'
reading matter will suffer in con ijuence. Af
course wo must have advertisements to make
the establishment 'my, and we will disfigure the
paper by Illy executed engravings as little as pos
sible, but our subscribers need net fear that we
will not give them all the reading they require. If
our reading mutter is encroached upon by adver
tisements, we will not only raise our advertising
rates, which will Induce advertisers tocontruet for
less space, but will Increase the length and num
ber of our columns. Now Is tile time. for titer:
chants to make advertising contracts for the year,
while our rates are so law. If we have too heavy
a rush upon us we will make THE RIX:INTER the
largest paper In the Lehigh Valley. Since we
have assumed the management of this paper the
number of new subscribers booked by its has ex
ceeded our most sanguine expectations. We In•
vite everybody to send In their names. We have
room for all.

fact of Mr. Broadhead being a citizen and attempt

A Cal RAL OFFER FROM THE APPLETONS.
—The establishment of libraries by charitable en
dowment, or the co-operation of intelligent, pub
lic-spirited citizens, is a subject that should re
ceive general attention. As a purifier of morals,
a means of popular education, a relief of crowded
prisons and almshouses, a direetpromoter of the
Peace, happiness, and wealth of communities, the
public library ranks with the church and the
school. It appears, from signs croppifig out here
and.there, especially In the West, as if the dints
were propitious for tht furtherance of this great
work. Such, at least, is the'conviet ion entertained
by D. Appleton '& Co., who have received, recent
ly, many inquiries from different States, asking to
he Informed as to the best method of founding
libraries, mind selecting hooks. In response to the
wide-spread feeling thus shown to exist upon the
subject, and to give It al/powerful Impulse, they
have determined to offer a direct and substantial
encouragement for the formation of public librar
ies in all parts of the United States. The plan
which they propose is, in scope, liberality, and
precise adaptation to the beneficent end sought to
be accomplished, unparalleled in the history of
public enterprises. It Is as follows:
The Appletons offer to give free, what may he
called the foundation for libraries everywhere.
They will present to each club of persons desirous
of formlng . a public library a complete set, in 16
volumes. their standard New American Cyelo
pmdia. s great national work, the only publi- .
cation of the kind, Is one which organizers of li
braries usually buy first of MI hooks, because It is
the one toed' often consulted by persons of all
classes and vocations, in search of reliable infor
mation on all kinds of topics. Sixteen large mom)
volumes, containing many thousand pages of the
most valuable rending-matter, for the purchase of
which they would ordinarily spend their money,
they therefore recede for nothing. In one sense,
the Cyclopaalla is In itself a library ; so that from
the start, the Clubs will have the , better part of
what they wanted for nothing. The only return
asked by the donors for this munifieentgitt Is, that
the Club shall'proeeed to raise and expend not less
than five Impdred dollars to buy other books. In
other words, that the Club shall !Mild the super*
structure on the founthttion laid by the Appletons.
In the selection of suitable books by Lunde experi
enced for n i nny years in the making of libraries,
the Appletons will render all the assistance re
quired, and supply the hooks, with the,ustml dis
count. The Cyclopedia, thus becomes literally a
gift. '
This extraordinary plan,'so far as it has been
submitted to the: judgment of individuals, meets
with unanimous approval. When it comes to be
generally known; It cannot fail to elicit prompt
recognition and thankful acceptanee from the in
habitants of hundreds of ehles, towns and villages,
1p the United States.

—A large new bell has recently been pro
cured and put up in Cie • Lutheran Church at
Swamp, New Hanover township, Montgomery
county. It was cast a Troy, N. Y., is of bet`
metal, and weighs 1,500 pounds with all the fix

—The statement of the Commissioners of
Montgomery county, of their operations fitr 18418
Is quipPfavorable.. The lebt of the county is being
wiped out rapidly, and CM he paid of in a year or
so, being now not over :50,000. The Pottstown
Ledger says, "The wist policy of our Commis
sionenyduring the war', it levying anti arntnglng
their taxes, can now fold: be seen, and is generally
acknowledged." But [h. policy of the Commis
sioners, as the Ledger mutt acknowledge, If it were
honestly neutral, was tot .t policy of wisdom but a
Polley of spite. The fitment Three Per Cent. Tax
was levied, not in the ibletists of the tax-payers,
but in the interests of Rebel lon,for_the purpose_ot
making the burden heavy ind that war measure
odious. The Democratic pleb.' in that county may
thank its stars that Its intetcons did not succeed,
for by a cheerful payment cedilla tax the gigantic
Court House swindle has brim buried among old
Musty records, and the tax-toyers will never know
how many imndreds of th wands they have paid
for building that 1111,3(.6 . 1dr .4 botch." Let it rest in
in peace, say we, thr Itnul , horn Inn

on the part o hose who gave out the

—Cooper, the " Isllipic Hoy Fork" swin
dler, purporting to represan Smith, Clark it Co.,
of New York, is shown ni by several neighboring
papers. We learn that tie note he bad here, with
the name of Peter S. Lehi!, of New Unilever, at
tached to it, is a forgery, dr. Leidy never having
signed any such note. It, visited Mr. John Lin
derman, in l'ottsgrove toil:v.111p, and tried to tiny
two cows, and get them inlay without paying the
money. This Mr. Linden:tan declined to let hint
do, when he told Mr. 1.. abig story about his deal
ing with a Pottstown menhant, to whom he had
paid thousands of dollar. Ile was obliged to
leave, however, without iftecting the swindle on
Mr. Linderman. The nseal Is probably plying
Ms trade In some of our neighboring counties at
this . time.—Pottiamisi Ledor.
LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Messrs. Editors yotr paper of last week I
notice that a law Is passel Increasing the pay of
the County Treasurer. the people of the county
had no notice of such. peition having been pre
sented, or they would hav3 nullified it.
If the compensation of lie Treasurer was insuf
ficient, he could have reigned. Others would
have been glad to have b l ear his place. But I
object to the manner of t &hip being done In this
county with regard to lays to be passed. There
seems to be a clique abint •he Court House who
manage such affairs, and they scent to have our
Legislatures at their hamitotecond may thing they
may ask. No notice is given ill the trap is sprung.
The Comity Commissioners, too, arc having
things their own way. Tim was when the high
est charge of a Commissloael was about £.BO per
year. Now three dollars ade Is allowed, and to
swell the amount to about 010, they must go to
work and erect a County Piton by day work, with
a platoon of superintendents Ind supernumerarlgs,
and an engineer. The worklegan about two yeas
ago, Mill will probably be Mashed In another. A
contractor would have done he work In half the
time and for half the money. A front with Lehigh
stone, such as went into that building, would have
been etituilly,substantial andinneh more appropri
ate. But brown stone front I distance must be had
and dressed in , palatial style, fronting on a remote
street of the city. And this at an enormous cost
fur at prison to house a lot ofvlialns and scoundrels
In. But this Is not sill. Wehave no:ter:4)mA pub
lished of those extravagatu expenditures or the
expenses of the county geiendly. Accounting
(takers scent to have run Li'sr different machines
us though they belonged to ttem.
MEM
Commlssioner,!, of county anhirs, the Govern
ment, water and gas compares, all of, these pub
lish no accounts. One worth think that•all these
concerns belonged to them •cclusively, and that
the tax payers were mere onsiders, and had no

chit, her disease becoming wsrse, until she had live

sores on her neck to heal, aid nil her unpleasant
and disagreeable symptoms gradually to disap
