Jeweled with our falling tears.
Dying that the truth might live,

Life for Glory's deathless fame.

TEE GREAT EXCIIRSION.—Ono of the great
events in the life of our city is the annual oxcdr•
On to Now York. Everybody who can, leave
dikes advantage of the cheapness of the trip, the
certainty of having lots of friends along, and the
promising prospect of n good time, to visit the
sights and scenes of the great metropolis. And

HANDSOME STEEL EN9RAVINOI3.—Mr. Levi
Melly is now canvassing this city for two of the
moat beautiful Steel Engravings—ono from East
lake's great painting of "Christ Blessing Little
Children," and the other from Dobson's famous
painting of "Bethlehem, or Christ lathe Manger"
—both engraved in the best style of that master
artist, Sartain. The two engravings are match
pletures s 'and arc among the most t elegant of Sar
tidu's many superior productions, and the subjects
are such as to make them worthy a place on the
wall of any family parlor, especially where there
are children. They speak directly to the heart
through the delighted eye, and as such should be
purchased and priced by every parent. Mr. Melly
is also canvassing for two other large and superb
engravings executed by the same master artist,
Sartain, the one entitled "Christ Rejected," after
the colossal and magnificent painting by the illus
trious Benjamin West, and the othdr, "Christ
Stilling the Tempest," after the large and splen
did 'painting by that distinguished marine artist,
James Hamilton. All of these several works are
the genuine Steel engravings, and of the very best
quality. They contain a combination or blending
of all the beauties and excellencies of the three
kinds or styles of steel-plate engravings, the lin%
mezzotint and stipple. In short, they are gems,
among the very finest productions extant, and
will bear the most careful inspection. Also, the
influence of such works must be salutary in culti
vating our malefic nature, in refining the charac
ter and elevating our thoughts. The agent will
call upon our citizens, and will be pleased to ex
hibit these several engravings. They speak best
for themselves, and must be seen to be appre
ciated.

running operation. The engineers - have driven
stakes all along the route, and prepared the way
for the advance of laborers who, it Is said, will
soon make their appearance, and push the great
work forward to a happy termination. In the
event of its completion It will open a direct route
from New York to the very heart of the Pennsyl
vania coal region. The coal which the Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company transport to
New York, must be taken there either via Phila
delphia, or via Reading and Allentown. Of the
circuitousness of the former route we need not
speak ; but even the latter route le not as direct a g
is the route about to be opened. It is 22 miles
from Port Clinton to Reiiding, and 18 miles from
Reading to Topton, making the distance, via Rend
ing, from Port Clinton to Topton,4o miles. Now,
It Is only 22 miles from Port Clinton to Topton,
via the route that Is to be opened, which is a sav
ing of 18 miles. This fact taken in connection
with the fact that the grade of the road will be
throughout so easy that the heaviest coal trains
can be taken over it, has led to the estimate that
coal could be transported to New York between
50 cents and $1 per ton cheaper than by any other
route. Moreover, the whole route runs thrcugh
ono of the richest valleys In our State. That part
of the route between Kutztown and Port Clinton,
runs along the Saucoma creek, through a valley

and manganese abouudintplentifully.—Democrat.
NOT TDDE.—" You're a liar," "you're an
other," is boys' talk, and it is frequently Indulged
in by the boys of the Daily News. We published a
local item last week on the subject of high rents
and urged upon our merchants who receive the
patronage of the working classes to protect the la
borers from the extortionate demands of landlords
by erecting houses and keeping them for rent at a
reasonable sum per annum. The Reading Journal
published a small portion of it, leaving out the ex
planation, and tile Nees thereupon went off half I
cocked as follows:
"A FALSIMOOD.—The following falsehood we clip from
the Berk* and Schuylkill Journal of Saturday last : '
• 'Rents are enormously high In Allentown. Small bon.
s aro y eyle[ u rase a+ twenty-eve LV111611,9:
many cases, to rent at that exorbitant price and Pram',
or are compened. to lot their houses Yamaha idle awaiting
a purchaser.
We do not desire to dispute the portion relating to the
enormously high rents demanded. but will prove to the
Editor of the paper in which the falsehood appeared, that
them are sot half a dotes unoccupied houses is the
city, besides those that aro being completed aro immedi
ately occupied. True, there are cases where property
owners would draw the last drop of blood from tenants
for the purpose of getting the amount of rent desired, but
even these End tenants. We do nut know of a single
dwelling in the place that fir nnoccopled, and many of
them to the fourth floor, Tho Editor of rho paper referred
to should visit our thriving city and sadsfy himself that
our assertions are correct. If be build one hundred Louses
for our citizens wo will agree to rent them for him in thlity
days from the time of their completion. Come, neighbor,
we know you dislike our prosperity, but with all due re
spect, beg of you not to falsify facts. ,
Now we don't like to be accused of lying oven
In this indirect manner, but as the News man has
fulled' to establish the fact that we are Bare, and
only promises to prove something, we can't con
vict ourselves. He says "we do not know of a
single dwelling In the place that is unoccupied."
That does not surprise us lo the least. There aro
things without number of which the editor of the
Nees Is entirely Ignorant. There aro things of
which he never dreamed.
We have had some experience in house hunting
and we believe what we asserted to be true. In
massy cases landlords are unwilling to rent at the
exhorbitaut prices charged. If they do not let
their houses remain idle they rent them unwill
ingly. We agree with the News in its opinion that
If a hundred houses were erected they could all be
rented within thirty days from the time of their
completion. But they must be rented at reason
able rates. Capital should have a fair return, bat
laboring men must not bixground In the dust. ,

and void by Judge teed. Upon the 'authority of
that opinion the defendant and the Judge of elec.
Clone, both Repnblicans_, determined to reject all
papers Issued between September 13th and Octo
ber 13th. Judge Chapman, Ia it's charge to the
jury, decided that where a person offering to vote
produces papers bearing the signature of the prop
er officer and tbo seal of the court, and complging
with the other requisite as to residence, taxes, Re.,
his vote must be taken and the officers cannot in
quire into the legality or regularity of the manner
In which the certificate of naturalization woe ob
tained. As the act of Assembly requires the
vote to be rejected "knowingly" before there can
ben conviction, the Court left It to the Jury as to
whether under the eircunrstauces, the officer acted
from corselenthms motives and with the belief that
they were acting according to law. The defen
dant was acquitted and the costs divided between
the Prosecutor and Defendant. There were about
20 similar cases, but the verdict of tbo jury had
the effect of frightening thanrivate prosecutors
who at once declared for a entlemcnt which was
done by entering a none prosequi on all the remain

six Democrats. Two Democratic lawyers appear
