THAT GRAND EXCIIRSION. — A. GALA DAT.
—SCENES AND INCIDENTS, AND TEL ELEPHANT.—
On Saturday morning, the appearance of the
weather was not very propitious for a pleasure
trip, but notwithstanding this the excursion to
New York city was a success to the parties engi
neering it and a pleasurable enjoyment to those
who participated in It. At a few minutes befrire
six o'clock a train of eleven cars arrived at the
Allentown depot, oa the Lehigh and Susquehanna
Railroad, most of them well tilled and those that
were not were soon taken possession of by the
large crowd there awaiting the train. Some were
unfortunate enough to be compelled to stand, but
all were in good humor (coking forward to a pleas
ant time at the other end of the trip and the bes t
was made of little perplexities. Bethlehem was
soon reached, and in its turn Frcemansburg, and
the cry of "all aboard" brought upon the train
more passengers, but scats were out of the ques
tion. At Easton more pleasure seekers were await
-1 lug the arrival of the train, but here they were
favored with an additional car, the train now num
bering twelve cars and cat rying over six hundred
passengers.
But whoever knew an excursion without some
excitement? If the wit, hard or Minstrel of the
party doesn't furnish it, some mechanical causes
will. Bo it was on this occasion. The train was
scarcely out of the confines of Phlllipsburgh when
the smell of burning oil offended the olfactories of
the occupants of the rear car, and soon the cause
was discovered, flames emanating from a hot axle.
Of course fears of a sudden roasting seized the
passengers and they took fright and flight to the
forward cars where they remained until within a
short distance of. Hackettstown, where the train
halted half an hour and the fire was extinguished.
And this was another: misfortune, for the regu
lar passenger train arrived, passed and the excur
sion train was compelled to follow In Its wake, In
stead of preceedlng It as was intended, and the
time for enjoyment in New York was therefore
shortened. But Journeys, like everything else of
human invention, must have an ending, and 11
o'clock saw an avalanche of foreign humanity
rush down upon Jersey's favorite city of Hoboken,
where a ferry boat was in readiness to convey it to
59th street.
Some of the excursionists did not take to the
boat, however, and went hunting after elephants
In other quarters, but those who did saw the ele
phant, the elephant which Is just now exciting so
much interest in Central Park. This 'elephant Is
one of a kind uncommon, very, In New York.
Many of our Lehigh county friends have seen the
other kind and they think they know him from the
tip of his tall to the extremity of his trunk, but be
exhibits himself in various kinds of menageries In
various shapes. 51t seldom costs much, though,
to go In, but it is uncommonly expensive to get
out. And that Is the only feature of sameness
about them.
But as we are on the excursion, nd our ele•
pbant was the one at Central Park, W 9 must give
Knickerbocker's description of the animal. It
runs thus : " The elephant of which I took a view
on Saturday Is intended for the embellishment of
Central Park. It arrived from Hamburg last
week, belongs to the feminine persuasion, and is
colossal In latitude and longitude. She is the first
feminine I have seen for a long time (except the
' English blondes' at Bible's) wbo still dresses In
something like the antique Garden of Eden style,
disdains the fashions and ignores °oft'. Lady's
Book. I have no Idea, of course, what the Em
press,' as she is called,bas in her trunk (which is
not even a Saratoga') but the oriental costume
of her ancestors, as we find it depicted In the more
authentic of antediluvian pictures, is Just exactly
what she came ashore in, and I am assured, by
those who are in her gigantic confidence and ought
to know, that she has no Idea of indulging in a
change, and does not purpose, however cold our
winters, to wear rare. She seems to be rather toe
itunoVor her sex and somewhat unhappy, (Judg
ing from her size—siglas,) but she is not addicted
to rumination, and possibly, therefore, 'grub'
and not grief Inspires her emotions. I was about
to inquire of the lady personally, being naturally
of a sympathetic nature myself," but as I hap
pened to tarn my gaze from the face of her lady
ship to the face of my watch, I discovered that
barely time enough was left me to look at Singer's
common team, take a drive through the Park,ansi
get over to 'Hoboken by 6 o'clock, at which time
the train left homeward bound. Nothing occurred
to rouse the sleepy, tired passengers, until the
names of their respective stations were called, and
they alighted, went home and sank Into the arms
of Morpheus well pleased with the pleasure and .
cheapness of the excursion. '
AN IMPORTANT CIABE.—In the Supreme
Court, In session at TrentOn; an important case—
Eleworth agt. the Central Railroad—is being ar
gued. Dixon and Dutcher are attorneys for the
plaintiff ; B. Williamson, attorney for the defend
ant, and F. T. Frellughnyseo, counsel. It origi
nated In the Hudson Omit, and Is a suit to com
pel the company to build abridge across their road
to connect the lands of the plaintiff. Its Impor
tance lice In the fact that should the decision be in
favor of the plaintiff, the door will be opened to
other applications . of a similar diameter.
EvEwe REPUBLICAN throughout tho county,
should send us all the items of interest occurring
In his particular neighbabood. With this assis
tance from our friends, we can build up a paper
that will be taken in every household, and our
sphere of usefulness will be enlarged. Where we
are unable to get the news in any other way, we
are willing to pay for it. We ask this from the
young men. To their exertions the people look
for the power which will revolutionize the county
politically ; and as they are the ones tq be bane
fitted more materially than any others, we ask
them to lend us a hand.
ROBBER4.—On Thursday night last burg
lars entered Trelchler's Station, on thb Lehigh

THE STRAWBERRY TRAFFIC.-61X millions
Of stawberry baskets manufactured every season
What a pile they must make! Yet such Is said to
be the absolute number. One of the largest fae:
tulles Isla Bergen County, 'New Jersey; another
one in New Britain, Connecticut, Is capable of
turning out live thousand baskets In a day; and
a manufactory at Westville, Connecticut, pro
duces a large number daily. Almost every year
some patent berry basket Is Introduced Into the
market, which Is said to have great advantages
over all others.
But the strawberries themselves? Too expen
sive when first brought to market for common
people to indulge in, they speedily become so
plentiful that the luscious fruit Is within the reach
of all. In Washington Market, New York, alone
there are upward of five hundred firms engaged in
the strawberry traffic. A single firm sometimes
receives five or six thousand querts lu a day. The
risk in dealing in such a perishable article is great,
yet more money is said to be made in this than in
any other branch of the fruit trade. Perhaps this
is because almost everybody likes strawberries.
BurrEn 31Aturico.—We commend the fol
lowing simple, but Important directions, to all who
keep cows, and experience difficulty in making
firm, sweet tasted, rich butter, an article which is
pleasant to every palate but is so seldom found In
market. They are rules given by an old butter
maker, through the columns of the Cultivator.
They are worth studying :
For making good butter, the first thing is to
have good eweet pasture, free from weeds or any
growth that will give a bad taste to the milk.
Good upland grass is better than coarse grass
growing on wet places. Borne dairymen think
that limed is better than unlimed land, but this is
a matter of minor importance. Others regard the
practice of sowing plaster in spring, and repeating
it early in autumn, as fettling to sweeten grass.
Good, well selected cows arc the next reenisite.
Perfect cleanliness, from beginning to end, is in
dlspensible—the most so, perhaps, of soy ono
thing. No dirt or dust must drop into the milk,
for which reason the animals should have a clean
place to lie on, and never be allowed to stand in
mud or manure; vessels all thoroughly washed—
scalded whenever necessary to preserve perfect
sweetness—including palls, pans, pots, churns,
workers, tubs or firkins. They must be first
washed clean with cold water i for if hot water Is
used first, it will curdle the milk in the cracks or
corners, and prevent Its washing out.
A perfectly pure air is of great importance.
Bad odors will taint butter. The dairy house
should therefore be far away from manure yards
and everything else of the kind. Keep tobacco
smoke off the premises. Let the butter be well
worked, so as to press out all the buttermilk. It
is impossible to have a good article if this Is not
done. Perhaps this le the most common cause of
failure. If much milk is left In, it soon ferments
and makes rancid and worthless butter. In laying
down for winter, nse new firkins—never use them
a second time ; and pots or Jars must not be used,
if they have ever had bad butter In them, or pickles
or anything else that will- taint them—the taint
can never be wholly removed. The beet dairy salt
la important. Butter In hot weather must be
covered and excluded from the air with saturated
brine.

Biwa and Houghton have added a volume to their
four editions of Dickens's Works, which Is unique
In character, and completmthe various sets. It
Is called "Masterllumphrey's Clock,'.' taking Its
name from the first and largest portion of the vol
ume. It may be remembered that Mr. Dickens
commenced in 1810 the publication of a serial
work under the above title. Master Humphrey
was the principal character—an old gentleman of
prattling turn of mind, who 'acted as a .sort of
chairman of an antiquated club, whose meetings
were held under the shadow of his tall clock, out
of the ease of which came manuscript rolls of
stories. Mr. Pickwick reappears, and so do Sam
Weller and his father, and even a third Weller In
the person of Sam's small son Tony, Nflto is a
miniature likeness of his grandfather.; and very
early, under the tuition of that patriarch, diplays
an interest In pints and quarts. It seemed to he
the author's intention to incorporate in this frame
work various short stories, but after a while, get
ting warmed with the tale of the "Old Curiosity
Shop," the voices of Master Humphrey end his
friends die away, revived only occasionally to re
mind of the original plan and thus explain the
title. The "Old Curiosity Shop" and " Barnaby
nudge" were both included thus in " Master
Humphrey's Clock," but arc entirely independent
of it. The fiction of Master Humphrey was then
dropped, not to be resumed, and the portions
printed have never until now been published in col
lections of Mr. Dickens's Works. Here they are
to be found, and will be rend with interest as if
forming a new novel by the great author.
The second portion of the book consists of the
various Christmas Stories which the author has
written since the publication of the older and bet
ter known "Christmas Stories."

There is presented—what to many will be the
most valuable portion of the book—an exhaustive
Index of all the characters named in Dickens's
Works, with a few characterizing, epithets, and
the name of the story in which they appear, with
a list of all the pages in which their words and ac
tions may be found. This really great Index strikes
out anew with astonishment at the multitude of
people whom Mr. Dickens has created. No won
der they need a Directory of their residences.
Who can keep In his head the number of the street
where each resides I Last of all is a curious list
of Familiar Sayings front Dickens's Works, which
Illustrates well the indebtedness of the world to
this master of felicitous phrases.
This volume gives to Third and Tioughton's four
editions a completeness which no other editions in
America or England possess and the purchaser
may take his choice, according* to his taste and his
pocket, between the cheap, compact, readable
"Globe," the richly illustrated, elegant !41tiver
side," the voluminous, graceful "limisehold,"
and the superb " Large Paper," with Its India
proof pictures, Its wide margin, and its limited
edition of one hundred copies only to subscribers.

Thrifty farmers arc proverbially careful about

money that "comes min" and so they *do not
propose to have It "go easy." Every dollar they
have, represents so much good sturdy toll, ring Is
too hard earned to he carelessly thrown away. At
the same time theysliould be careful not to let
their cautiousness cheat theM out of advantages
of a really good Investment, through the want ofa
little investigation. Every far Mer, for Instance,
