Another Fire in Allentown By the praiseworthy action of a number of our citizens, what might have been a very de structive fire was suppressed and the surround buildings saved, ,wlthout even the alarm of "lire" being raised. Last Wednesday night about 12 o'clock, the stable of Mr. Gideon ftortz, on Church alley near Liberty street, was discovered to be on fire and the flames were actually bursting out of the doors anti windows: The neighbors got to work at once to subdue the flames and labored with such zeal its to succeed in. extinguishing them without .any other loss being incurred tints the destruction'of the hay stored in the building. A cow was In the stable but was got out uninjur ed. The lire Is supposed to have bcen the work of amincendinry and it.would be well fur our po lice to keep a vigilant eye for sigh offenders and If possible to bring them. to Justice. Ton much praise cannot be awarded to those, wlmsoprotnpt ly wentto work and stayed the-progress of the fire. Such presence of mind In a moment of ex citement le worthy of commemintion, 'and we doubt not the safety of our city from the devour ing element has often been due to title character title of one people. • Jordan Rolling Mill The Jordan Rolling Mill Is to be started ' again next week under the management of n new Superintendent, Mr. John Downing.

We hope our citizens will give them a hearty welcome. Warner's Skating Park We are glad to announce that skating at Warner's Park Is no longer a myth. The Ire Is. good, and excellent skating Is to be had there and we shall be pleased to see our citizens patronizing Mr. Warner, whose public spirited efforts to sup ply the people of Allentown with the means of In dulging In this healthful recreation, deserve re cognition and, support. New Restaurant - • • On Hamilton, between'Sixth and Seventh streets, Mr. CharlesLaudensehlager has opened a new Restaurant and has fitted it up In first-class style. Its central situation and the complete sep aration of the bar-room from the rest of the estab lishment, are likely to make this place very popu lar, and we have no doubt the proprietor will sus tain kW reputation as a first-class caterer. Columbia Overcoats The members of the Columbia Fire Com pany were measured for new overcoats, on Friday evening, and we shall soon see the boys In "gorge ous array." On parade, when lire companies visit our city, the neat appearance of our firemen Is very creditable to themselves and the city, and when they have their work to do, as late fires have proven, they show themselves able to fulfil the arduous duties of their self-sacrificing profes sion as well as Join In Its festivities. The history of the world shows that great results must follow when-" Columbia" goes to work with a " Good will." Nuisance at the Jail Citizens residing in the vicinity of the jail are much annoyed by the unruly conduct of the prisoners. Night after night the Most unearthly MAT, ore made by them, and front a late hour until sometimes midnight, they sing, yell and shout In a way to disturb the whole neighborhood and alarm the children and the aged and sick who are waked out of their sleep. Whoever Is responsible for these things, should see to It that it is stopped at once. Diecipline is one of the es sentials of prison government, and offenders against the law must not be allowed fio wantonly and defiantly annoy the public. Yogthful Shophfter* On Monday evening, three young girls, each about fifteen years of age, entered the stores of Peter Wenner, L. C. Huber and Mr. Fenster metier, apparently with the Intention of making purchases. At Wenner's they took some groceries, nC Fenstermacher's they stole two boxes or figs, and ut L. C. Huber's, the clerk noticing they bud grown fat after entering the store, accused them of thieving and upon searching discovered about thirty dollars worth of dry goods and trimmings, together with the goods stolen fromthe other stores, concealed in a basket and under the shawls ana cloaks of the young maidens. They were taken before Alderman Whitman, but a prosecution was waived and they were released. Counterfeit Fire Cent PIeCCA in Circulation These counterfeits are in circulation and without doubt many of them are In Allentown,. but as the best of them cannot be detected except by experts, it Is of little use warning people against them. The Assessor et the U. S. Mint has de clared some specimens to be so good us scarcely to be detected, except by the weight. As it Is not likely folks are goluglo weigh every one they are offered, we suppose the good and the bad will be considered of equal value by a majority of the peo ple and the counterfeiters will grow rich. it has been stated that it is in contemplation to recall the whole Issue and give Mr. Counterfeiter a more difficult task to execute. These men, In the prosecution of their nefarious and hazardous business, display an ingenuity and perseverance in overcoming .diMcultles that, If exercised legitimately, would certainly attain for them eminence and distinction, and yet, such is the fascination of crime, they prefer to misuse their talents, and in most cases reap their reward In a miserable life and at disgraceful death. Fire Again.—First irtrd The necessity of a steamer for the First Ward, was very clearly demonstrated and the efficiency of the new fire company plainly proved by the fire which occurred there on Monday morn- Mg. Between 11 and 12 o'clock, two of the new ; buildings iu course of erection by Mr. Colt, on Water alley near Turner street, were discovered to be on tire. The first intimation given was the thick smoke seen issuing front the doors and win dows, and it was then discovered that the lire was spreading rapidly between the ceiling of the lower story nod the first floor. The Vigilant Fire Com pany quickly' turned out and aided by the citizens proved themselves' worthy of the name. With only buckets to carry the water, they by-tremen dous exertions succeeded in subduing the Baines and preventing a disastrous conflagration. The prevailing high wind and the proximity •f Mr. Cole's lumber yard, caused fears to be entertained that an extensive tiro was inevitable and the thanks of the citizens are due to the Vigilant Fire Com pany and to the citizens who aided them that these fears were nut realized. The promptitude with which the flumes were extinguished explains the fact that the alarm never reached the upper portion of the city. It will be a good thing for the inhabitants of the First Ward, If this accident ! results in a more generous support to their newly organized fire company. Shoplifting in Allentown A Mrs. John Rudolph, of Eighth street, has lately left town under very disgraceful circum stances. • She hue been In the habit, for some time past, of going to the store of Mr. Gressley, corner of Seventh and Chew streets, and there buying her dry goods, etc. The early morning she has chosen for her operations, and entering the store, would ask for some article that was kept in the cellar, which of course the clerk bad to fetch. At that hour lu the, morning there would, In all prob be but one clerk in the store and Mrs. Ru dolph had a clear coast for her operations. On the return of the clerk she would pay for what she had ordered and then leave the store. Time after thno articles of, value were missed—pieces of goods, balmoral Wan, etc.,—and no one kbew on whom to fasten suspicion. At length the frequency of her visits at such an early hour, and the singu larity of the fact that the goods she wanted had , to be fetched from the cellar, excited suspicion ' On the occasion of her next visit, a clerk was con: coaled in the Store, and she was seen by him to hide some articles under her clothing. Ou being accused of the theft she denied it at first, most strenuously, but it promise being made that she should nut be prosecuted If she gave up the goods, site restored them. Subsequently, she sent a little girl with several articicii, which she declared were all she had ever taken; but it hue since transpired that she has Bold a shawl and balmond skirt and offered other articles for sale, to her neighbors. Site has always accounted for the possession of the goods by saying her husband had traded for them In the country. lice husband declares his ignorance of any such transactions and she has levanted to Baltimore. Officer Hofford, armed with u search warrant, went to the house, but no trace of stolen goods could he discovered. Mrs. Rudolph, we believe, had hitherto enjoyed a fair reputation and the dis covery of her guilt has been a severe shock to her former friends. .k warrant for her arrest is In the hands of the pollee, and If she should ever return to Allentown, she Is likely Co hove nn.

The production of iron ore in Pennsylvania for the 'year 1869 has been as follows: Pig Iron, 065,000 tons ; for 1869 against 872,000 tone 11 1868; Increase, 03,000 tune, the sales of the pro duet being about $34,000,000 or very little beyond the lesser quantity of last year. From forges and blootuerles, 31,000 tons; rails, 280.000 tons; other forms of manufactured, 271,000 tons; increase, 31,000 tons. The added value on the manufac tured article may be fairly estimated at $35,000,- 000 showing a total productive valee of fully $69,- 000,000, with an Increase In total quantity from 1,424,157 tons to 1,563,000 tone. The Lehigh Crane Iron company have been the repellants In three sults, (brought respectively by John 11. Troxell, David Trpxell and Michael :Munich), which were Instituted for the recovery of damages' alleged to have been sustained by the complainants, in consequence of the company al lowing the muddy water toescape from their dams and thus rendering the waters . of the Lehigh River impure. The complainants all reside on the banks of the Lehigh and alleged that the said impurity of the water rendered it unfit for ordinary domestic and farming use.. The mud dam at Guth's ore bed, near the Jordan Creek, Is the dam particu larly referred to In the above complaint. • The arbitrators, after a session of six days, awarded each plaintiff one hundred and sixty dollars and costs. Quite a number of sults are now pending, involving the same questions of law and probably this decision will result in the settlement of many of.them, If not all. - The law seems to be clear In the case, that where any damage can he shlown as the result of the operations of any company or In dividual' they will be held responsible and must make good the loss.

Voorhees Shliner, situated on Church street, Euston. The store house was situated Just in the rear of Messrs. Voorhees da Shimer's drug store, and was used for the stewing of large packages of chemicals and drugs. It contained at the time of the fire a large quantity of goods on each floor. These valuable goods have all been completely ruined by fire and water. The building was insured for $l,OOO and is the property of Alexander Wilson, Esq. It is feared the foundation has been injured, but if this should prove not to be the case, this insurance will probably cover the loss. The stock destroyed is variously estimated from $5OOO to $6OOO and was insured In Northampton for $l.lOO, York, l's, 81,250 and In the Beacon, $l,OOO. It is general ly believed that the fire was occasioned by sponta neous combustion of some of the chemicals, but the proprietorlieuspect Incendirtrism. ' ACC:DENT AT 110M.:NDAUCitiA On Saturday morning Joseph Sharpe, em ployed at the nokendatiqua Iron Works, met with his death under very singular and distressing cir cumstances. lie was wheeling a barrow load of Iron ore up an inclined plank, for the purpose of loading a car, when he slipped and fell between the car and the wharf. The heavy barrow and its load fell upod him striking him a fearful blow on the back of the head and he was 'almost in stantly killed, breathing only for a few minutes alter assistance bad arrived. This accident was not the result of any carelessness on the part of the unfortunate deceased. The plank, wet from Friday's rain, had frozen during the-night and in some places was as smooth as glass, so that foot hold was very precarious. The fact of his hands being engaged with the barrow, made It impossible for him to recover his balance or to grasp at the plank as he fell. This sad accident seems to have made a deep Impression on the fellow workmen of deceased, among whom he bad many friends. JOHN HOCKEY VS. ERWIN BURKHALTER A case •of considerable local interest was tried last week lu the DistiA — Cotart, No. 1, City of Philadelphia. The case was one that In law Is called " a case of [rover and conversion," in which John Hockey was plaintiff and Erwin Burkhalter defendant.. Both parties reside at or in the neigh borhood of Coopersburg, and the plaintiff claimed $4500 for hides, alleged to have been sent to de fendant to tan, and that out of some $9OOO worth sent defendant had kept hides to the value of $45210. Defendant alleged that there was an agreement, between himself and Hockey, that the hides should hetanned at 12 cents per pound. For calf skin he Will to havel:l2l,l cents each and for kips 91.55, and was to receive his payment in hides. Pre'vl- OM to this action being brought, plaintiff had brought an action of replevin against same defen dant to recover possession of these hides. 'This action was brought in Lehigh County Court and instill pending. After the plaintiff's counsel closed their case, defendant's counsel offered in evidence a certified copy of the pending action of replevin and called John I'. Miller, Esq., Sheriff of this county, who testified that the defendant had given him a "claim property bond" and that thereupon be had delivered the property to him. Defendant's counsel then asked for verdict for defendant, on the ground that the title to property In question was by these proceedings legally vested In defen dant. Thereupon the Court instructed Jury to find verdict for defendant,. We understand that Mr. Burkhalter's counsel claim that they have a full and ample defense to plaintiff's plaint on the merits. The case was tried by Messrs. Davis and Dittman, of Philadelphia, for plaintiff, and Edward llarvey and Jahn D. Oliver, Esqs., of this city, with M. F. Givins. Esq., of Philadelphia. for defendant. CONFERENCE OF THE EVANGELICAL LUTHER AS SYNOD-THE CASE O 1 ST. PAUL'S MEM The Conference of the Evangelical Luther an Synod of Pennsylvania, (Second District.) held Its Meetings last week. The much talked of case of St. Paul's German Lutheran Church, has occupied their attention and been disposed of, but an official report of their proceedings has not yet been pub lished. All we are enabled to lay before our readers Is simply the resolutions adopted without a word as to bow they ware arrived at. The pub lic has a great Interest In the proceeding of such an assembly and we regret that we are unable to make our report fuller, for the benefit of the Eng lish portion of the community. The Conference adopted the following Report: 1. After an examination of the papers handed. to the Committee, andihearing the statements of the two brethren representing the respective par ties In the church, your Committee learned that the resolutions adopted last July, at the meeting of Conference held in Allentown, having reference to the election held on last Easter Monday, bad not been complied with. The Church Council, however, declares Itself ready to hold an election for two sets of offleers'on next Easter Monday. At this point of the proceedings the five mem bers of the Council, elected last year, publicly ten dered their resignations to take effect on next FAO , - tee Monday. The complainants declared them selves satisfied with thin. 2. Inasmuch no different opinions exist with reference to the elections to be held In the future, your Committee deems It necessary to direct at tention to a proper answer to the question, " who mialilled to vote?" by declaring that:the entire oth Article of the by-laws must be taken into con sideration; nod not only the first section of It, eo that only those persons can be refused a vote. who have been excluded from the church by disci pline in accordance with Article 2d, and Si. Matthew 10. 3. With reference to the third point, how pro tracted meetings and prayer meetings should be held In the church, the Church Council conceded that they were held as the complainants set forth, and inasmuch as Conference had already express ed its opinion upon this point, therefore Reitolva', That we simply direct them to that opininn, which is-that we cannot regard the Method and manner In which these. protracted meetings and prayer meetings are held as in ac cordance with the practice of the Lutheran Church. After Conference bad adopted the above report, the Church Council declared itself sntisfied, and asked advice as to how the weekly services of the church shoithibe conducted? The answer was that In general they should regulate themselves by the order prescribed In the Liturgy, until Synod nt its next meeting gives a more complete answer: Rev. Brobst read a paper on prayer meetings and protracted meetings, which, In twelve points, set forth what Is, and whet Is not, Lutheran In such meetings. By resolution of Conference It was ordered to he printed In the ZolurArifi.

The wenther has been so mild that our farmers have done their Spring plowing already. They now only attend the ven dues, which are very numerous Indeed, sometimes two and three In one day, and soon they will have their moving to look after. A vendue took place to-day, on the farm of John and Frank Knerr, who are going to leave Lowhlll for your city. They have contemplated moving since last March. Mr. Reuben Diehl, blacksmith at Clnuaen9lle, ban made arrangements to move his business to the "Leather Corner Post.'' Last week Richard J. Knerr, our stotekeeper, sent to New York 275 bushels of clover seed, which was quite a large shipment of so valuable an ar ticle. But Claussville is growing In enterprise and population also, as you would think if you now the number of children on our streets. The Debating Society was still flourishing at the last two meetings. Court was hold, mock trials were conducted, and it would have done many a learned Judge good to have heard tne pleadings of the amateur attorneys. Next week the debate will be held at Rupp's School House, and the ques tion to be discussed Is, "Shall Polygamy be abol ished by the Government, and. If necessary, by the sword,? The last snow had a very severe effect upon one of our mail lines, the Kutztown and Schneeks. vine. The mall has not made its appearance In two week,<. Some of the pmt toasters are uneasy, not knowing whether they are compelled to go to Kutztown after the mail or not,.and the people living on the route had not seen the REGISTER or any other paper till your correspondent furnished them with his copy. On Sunday, the Rev. Henninger delivered a very interceding sermon at the Lowhill church, to II large audience. Yvnet INDIAN TERRITORY. A Ride Among the Indiana—Aspect of the . Con nfry—Thrilling Adventures—Matri monial Adrantagex—The Capital of the Chortali• Nation, • PERRYVILLE, INMAN TERRITORY, Feb. 3, 1870 Correftpoiderere tpf The Lehigh Register On the finth received orders from U. S. Marshal Britton, to proceed to Fort Smith, Join Marshals Brown and McLemore and accompany them Into the Nation. Two hours ride . brought me to the city, which four years ago numbered only one thousand inhabitants, but now boasts of a population of over three thousand. It is the scat of Sebastian County, and strong efforts are now being 'node to have the Circuit and District Courts removed thither from Van Soren, which meets with the hearty approbation of nearly ell parties interested, shire Fort Smith affords superior tie commodations In' comparison to Van 80re,,. Prominent among the distinguished citizens of Fort Smith, are Generals Cooper and Cabbell confederate officers and Colonel Fishhook, who organized the 4th Regiment, Arkansas Union Cavalry. I bad the pleasure of meeting Colonel Woolley, a resident of Van Buren, previous to the "onpleasantness," but who has resided In Texas, ever since the close of the war. He has returned to look after some matters of business. • left Fort Smith on the morning, of the 30th ult., and after a ride of Seven miles drew rein Is front of H. Miekle's farm horse, who requested u., to remain and enjoy his hospitality until the fol lowing morning, when he, with several others would accompany us to this place. We readily consented. and did ample justice ton good dinner. In the afternoon we were Joined by Lewis Miller, of Fort Smith, who was to bd one of our party, and who interested the company, in the evening, with tales of hl thrilling adventures among the In dians and miraculous escapes. On the following morning the sun rose bright and clear, giving indications of a pleasant day: Our party, which now consisted of five, left at It a, nn. and in half-an-hour crossed the line of the Choctaw Nation, when " Lo ! the poor Indian," was the chief object of interest. We met but very few until after our arrival at Scullyville, the home of ex-Governor Walker, member of Council. Evening found us at the residence of Mr. Burke, a white man, whose better-half, however, is a Choctaw. One year's residence in the Nation en titles a man to an . Indian wife, and vim verm. But no one is to refer front this than two year's residence entitles him to two, yet some " seem" to view the law in that light. Two charming young widows, related to Gov. Walker and residing at Scullyville, are watching and waiting, not for a Hiawatha, but forsevertil pale-farce to make their appearance, and win, woo and wed them. The httle papooses in the vicinity of Burke's are taught by a Cincinnati lady, and I ant informed are pro gressing finely. By S o'clock on the . followirig morning, wit were again on the tramp. After proceeding a few miles, we ascended an eminence, when a bread prairie WAS spread out before us, bounded on the south 'by a chain. of mountains, which looked beautiful in the distance. After crossing the prairie, we entered the Big Narrows, at the west end of which lives John McCurden," a big Inilu," member • of the Choctaw Council. lie was absent, having gone to Tishomingo to draw this year's annuity for the Indians in his immediate vicinity. Although very wealthy, he iivoe in a log cabin. Proceeding ten miles further, we put up for the night and were treated with hospitality. A mult i her oft migrants camped across the road from us. They for merly lived in Beaton County, Arkansas, had gone to Texas a few yearn ago, but, becoming tired, "packed their duds," and are now retracing their steps to the land where people lived in peace and harmony.' • !There are thoustinds of acres of waste land in the Choctaw Nation, which will never be culti vated as long no the whites are dented the privil ege of settling thereon. A few Indians are Indus trious and cultivate hundreds of twice, but the majority of them are indolent audgive upon the bounty of others. There are, however, more re fined than the ragged and dirty 'Omahas and Pawnees of Nebroska. The present seat of gov ernment- of the Choctaw Nation Is .‘ Chahm Tamaha," but will soon be removed to " Moosho. latublee Mamba," situated on the road leading from Fort Biiiith to Doggy Depot. We shall re main here a few days to rest, after which we shall strike oat for the Chicknenw Notion. U. S. J arriage%. HUFF—DANKEL.—Oh the 12th of February, by Rev. N.
