A Reflection upon Allentown. " They
have about the meanest thieves In Allentown, of
any city In the vicinity. Ono was detected the
other day carrylug off the emblems of mourning
banging outside the house of William Stubcr.
We believe they would steal a copper off a dead
darkey's eyes and Invest It In peantits."—Carbon
Democrat.
It takes a menu man to make a thief and a mean
thief to steal in Allentown. Our people are gen
erous enough to give to the hungry and destitute,
and we are not at all jealous of tho reputation of
the thieves who impose upon them. Speculations
as to the nature of their possible depredations ar.d
the Investment of their 111-gotten gains would be
doubtless very profitable, and it would ho well for
the Democrat to elaborate this subject.
Beautiful Monuments.—Walter Losch, on
Linden street above Bth, Itiengaged on the monu
ment to Major Seip, which will be completed and
put np lu Union Cemetery during this Spring. It
promises to display more than ordinary skill and
will bun monument to the workinanship of Allen
town artiste us well no to the memory of a departed
hero. Mr. Losch Is n native of this city, but fur
some years has been away from his old home,
studying the theory and perfecting himself In the
mechanical part of his art, under sonic of the
leading marble workers of the country, and we
arc glad to see that upon his return he Is meeting
with success. Besides the monument spoken of,
Mr. Loseh has erected others which do him Infinite
credit.
Jordan Division, S. of T.—The Jordan DI:
vision, Sons of Temperance, celebrated the 21st
anniversary of their Institution, on Monday even
ing, in the Court House. A crowded house lis
tened with great attention to the able addresses
of the several speakers. Inside the bar the seats
were taken up by the different members of the
National, State, and subordinate Divisions, dressed
incfrtheir appropriate regalia. The City Cornet
Band and the ever-welcome Philharmonic Club'
were present to enliven the proceedings, and their
excellent performances came in for a full share
of applause.
The meeting was opened with prayer by Rev.
J. W. Wood, who then read the Twenty-Bret
Annual Report of the Division. The report was a
very satisfactory one, showing the present mem
bership to be nearly three hUndred, and the num
• ' her of Cuticle to be 'Wont sixteen hundred. The
amount of money paid into the treasury during
the twenty-nue years was more than 612,000, of
which 410,000 had been spent lu .promoting the
Interests of the order, leaving the balance of two
thousand dollars in the hands of the Treasurer.
The eloquent addresses of Mr. Bballeross,G. W.
P. of the Grand Minton, and the Rev. W. C.
Best, of Philadelphia, seemed to produce a pro
found impression on the large audience, and n
collection was then taken up for the benefit of
the Division. The last speaker was the Rev. Mr.
Crouch, of this city. The very earnest and forci
ble address of this gentleman, and his eloquent
appeal to the people of Allentown In view of his
contemplated removal from the city, stirred the
hearts of all who heard him, and his expressions
of Christian lorti for them and for their children,
undoubtedly met with a sympathetic response.
The Grand Division Which met lu the Division
room lu the morning Initiated two new members,
and all concerned arc to be congratulated on the
success of this celebration.
However much men may differ from the Teta
- pumice reformers In practice, no one cue find
fault with their principles. They see a wrong,
aud they work to set'it right. The evils of intem
perance are acknowledged ou all hands. These
men are not content with acknowledging the
presence of the evil, but they labor to remove it.
Like nlireformers they meet with opposition and
even abuse,. They suffer misrepresentation, sneers
and calumny, but there is no man dares to charge
them with any unworthy motive, nor le there any
fond parent but is rejoiced at their success. It
becomes all then, who; either from fear of pecu
niary loss or from incapacity to practice self-denial,
cannot join hands with them, to give thorn on
qualified prase fur the constancy they are show
lug. The people of Allentown did that on Mon -
• day night, and It Is a good !Igo to see such an ex-
Premien of public. opinion.

Reading Journal says Jacob J. Roth, a young man
who escaped from the Northampton County Pri

sentence for horse stealing, was arrested by Of
ficers Cullen and Boone on Monday afternoon in
the city of Reading. A reward had been offered
for Roth's capture and a detective from Philadel
phia was In Reading a few days ago, In pursuit of
him, without success. Officer Cullen, suspecting
from information he had received from Detective
Lyon he had found the right party, went to a
place known as Bnck Hail, on the corner of Elm
and Reed streets, in company with officer Boone,
where it appears the wife of Roth resides, and
after a search found the fugitive secreted above a
trap door under the roof. Ile was taken before
Alderman Richards, and Officer Cullen made oath
of his suspicion that the prisoner was the escaped
convict, upon which the Alderman committed
Roth to prison, to await the action of the North.'

knowledged that he had made his escape from
the Easton jail, and appears to have been prepared
to help himself along in his flight, as a hilly and
A knife wore found upon his person upon being
searched at the prison. He had about six mouths
more of his sentence to serve out, but there are
some other charges of a pretty serious nature for
which he will have to answer at the end of his
term. During that evening he made an attempt
to break jail, but was discovered In time by the
warden and be was secured with a hail and chain.

otic appeals stirred the loyal hearts of his large
and entimslastle auditory. Other popular and
attractive lecturers have been Invited by Holten-
dnuqua church, the proceeds being designed to
help liquidate the debt Incurred In erecting their
beautiful sanctuary.
Gor.n.—Gold and government bonds each
sold hi New York on Wedneetiny lust at 1173:.,
Therefore, with the present rend Won of our national
debt and finances the maximum price of a bond is
not mitre than its equivalent in gold. At least
such appears to be the opinion of holders, for the
81's were freely offered at their par- in gold.—
Daily News,
Wily should Government hoods bring any more
than their value In gold whcu the interest Is only
six per cent. In gold 7 Allentown National Bank
stock pays twelve per cent. In currency, yet Its
stock sells for only ilfty per cent. above its par
value, whereas, to be equal to Government bonds
in proportion to the rate of interest paid, It ought
to'sell at one hundred per cent. premium. We
take this bank as an example because It is the
oldest In the county. To show that the premium
on gold has no relation whatever to the premium
on bonds we have only to say that on Thursday
gold was 1163; and bonds 117!‘. Bonds were at
a premium; of ono per cent. In gold, or according
to the Daily Kew., the condition of our Kational
debt malignances Improved one per cent. In a day.

TAKING VIE CENBUS.—Appllcatlons for np
polutment us Census-takers are becoming quite
numerous, and the United States Marshal is like
ly to have Ms hands full of this business for some
time to come.. As Congress has rejected all new
plans, the census this year will be taken on the
same basis us in 1850 and 1800. The law of 1850
provides that the census shall be taken by the
United States Marshals of the respective districts,
with the aid of such assistants as shall be required.
Each State is divided into census districts to be
composed of not less than 20,000 persons. The
assistants for taking the census are appointed and
commissioned by the Marshal, and arc paid their
compensation as follows ; two cents for every
name, ten cents for every farm, fifteen cents for
every productive establishment of industry, two
cents for every deceased person, and two per cent.
of the gross amount for names enumerated, for
social statistics, and ten cents per mile for travel.
The enumeration must begin the first day of June,
and the census must be completed, and the returns
all sent in to the Secretary . of the Interior by the
first of November following. It will be seen by
the foregoing that the compensation afforded an
enumerator, providing the district allotted to him
shall contain not less than 20,000 persons, would
be about MO, or more. The Marshal is forbid
den by law to accept any bribe or consideration,
for an appointment of assistant, and is liable to
$lOO tine, if he should be convicted of so doing.
Theouperintendent of the census is Francis A.
Walker, late of the Bureau of Statistics, and As
sistant Special Commlssio'ner of Revenue, whose
office le at Washington. The Marshal of the
Eastern District of Pennsylvania, who will have
the appointment of Assistant Marshal, for the
counties In the eastern part of the State, is Gen.
Gregory, whose office is at Philadelphia.

while we may expect to see the " Emcee Iron
Company" fairly afloat.

It was said that he was on the train when it left

that the wheels of the tender were bloody. It has

death or In any serious injury to the fireman. Ho
fell off the tender without attracting any attention,
rolled out of the way without sustaining any serl-.
one Injury. He then walked to East Mauch
Chunk, but the train had gone on without him.
This is one of the most remarkable escapes on

Its providential nature.

School at Hanover Township, deprecating what
hey felt to be an interfering spirit on the part of
heir German brethren, line called forth the follow-
lug from the Sunday School Teachers' Association
of St. Peter's German Evangelical Church
Ist. That our Pastor was, during a visit at that
place, informed of the desire of the people for a
German Sunday School; since most of them be
longed to German churches.
2d. That thereupon this Association appointed
a committee to investigate the matter and that
this committee found, on inquiry at the place, that
a German Sunday School was In fact greatly de
sired.
• ..
9d. That our Association never entertained the
Idea of founding a school In opposition to that al
ready existing, but that the aforesaid committee
was expressly charged to confer with the officers
and teachers of the former school, in Order that all
things might "be done decently and in order,"
and we deeply regret that the committee was: un
successful In their endeavor to obtain a personal
Interview with the Superintendent and Secretary.
4th. That in order to avoid even all appearance
of opposition, it was from the very beginning de
termined to exclude all English from the German
School. .
_
sth. That our Association believed, and still
believes, that It has an equal right to organize a
German Sunday School in Hanover, (especially as
it is In a district adjoining our congregation)—
with another society to establish an English Sun
day School there.
sth. That also In our church two Sunday
Schools are held, an English one In the morning
and a German In the afternoon, and that neither
suffers from the other, but that on the contrary,
many children attend both.
7th. That children can attend school twice on
Sunday as well as on a week day, especially If the
former last but au hour.
dth. That we wish our brethren and sisters . of
the Ilanover Union Sunday School all blessing.
and prosperity In the good cause, and hope that
they will do the Psame toward as, so that we
may work together In pence and harmony.
Tue ASSOCIATION.
The concluding paragraph expresses the right
sentiment. The self-denying efforts of those who
have stuck to the English School through diseour
agements and difficulties, will not, we trust, be
allowed to flag and fall of their appropriate harvest
by the misunderstanding that these resolutions
are Intended to clear up.
' \Vim; you have got a good thing, keep np the
quality of it and let the people know you have it.

COVETING ♦ SUNDLT SCHOOL.-A lady, who
would make& good Superintendent, we warrant,
discourses after this manner :
In a late number of the Advance under the bead
of Sunday School, I notice this suggestion : "The
difficulty of selecting a Superintendent may some
times be simplified by relentlessly ruling out Mime
who are greedy for the place, and who burrow and
figure for it." Doubtless there are men so greedy
fur office an to resort to unworthy scheming, even
to secure a post of such small worldly honor as
that of chief officer In a Sunday School, and such
should be relentlesely ruled out. But may It not
often happen that men of different stamp, desir
ing earnestly to see more efleetnal work done In
the Sunday School and painfully aware of defi
ciencies In Its management,—may not such men
feel an:tans—almost to covetousness—to try the
effect of a new regime.
I, being a women, and therefore not eligible
to the once and having had much experience
as teacher, do despoil° and say, that whenever I
have come in contact with a sleepy, bungling, un
symphathizing superintendent, selected perhaps
for his eminent piety, but certainly net with regard
to his adaptiveness for this especial branch of ser
vice, I have felt an uncomfortably strong desire
to walk into the man's place. In fact I have
more than once " fairly ached" to do so?
Wouldn't I make inquiries after the teachers
who were too delicate to appear at the school for
four Sundays in suscession, though they were
sleigh riding a good many nights in the week ?
Wouldn't I seebe little colored fellows when they
came in and et od ruefully at the door,
I ts____
not know
ing where to go Wouldn't I see when the big
boys in the corner got to scuffling and chucking
chestnuts at the girls in the middle seats ? Would
I give the 'wee ones' reward cards that were all
picture and no Scripture ? Would I be satisfied
with drilling them continuously in lugubrious
tones on the great doctrines which they cannot yet
by any stretch of Intellect comprehend ? Would I
not tell them of the dear Savior's loving Vette well
as his crowning sacrifice 1 How Ile pitied sod
Mary and Martha—Just as we would pity them,
only with a more exceeding tenderness—and gave
back to them the brother they mourned ? How
the ruler's little girl, only twelve yearn old, had
fallen Into that tong deep sleep, and Jesus came
and took her hand in Ills own, and lifted her up,
and gave her back, warm and breathing, to her
mother 1 How He was lonely sometimes, as we
are, and troubled. Oh, that sweet, human word
troubled! How He loved to go away by Himself
Into the cool, still mountain and pray, because
there He felt nearer Ills Father than in the crowd
ed city? Instead of clothing the idea of Christ's
person In a repelling cloud of awe and mystery,
should not the object be to bring Him so near, and
show Him so loving and lovely, that each little
heart should open unawares to receive Him 7
Before condemning a man too strongly for cov
eting a Sunday school, let It be clearly ascertained
whether It Is "greed cleft:ice" or greed of souls
which animates him.

LETTER FROR CLAUSSVILLE:
CLAUSSYILLE, ➢larch let, 1870
Dear Register :—One thing is sure, we have the
long looked for cold weather. It Is not only cold
but bitter cold, and has been so for one week, and
all those who wished for Ice have had their wish
gratified. The cold snap has a queer effect upod
those attending the different vendues. They fol
low the "crier," some blowing their hands, others
dancing a South Carolloa Jig, to keep the blood
circulating through their understandings, and
their antics make quite an amusing scene for a
cold day. Speaking of 'endues, our friend, Albert
M. Dinkey, will hold a public sale 012 the 25th of
March. He purposes moving to your city.
This place Is quite musical, and of late there
are more Professdrs In Lowhlll than single women.
During the past two weeks, two Professors have
lighted In our midst, for the purpose of giving
tuitions on the violin and piano, Prof. Benduseky
at Lowhlll, and Prof. Charles Bock at Weida's.
A party of young men from'Claussvillo and Wel
senberg ate engaged In organizing a band, (brass)
and In Lyon Valley they have lately organized a
string band under the leadership )f Prof. L. 'Teas,
of Weisenberg. This is music enough for you, Is
It not ?
The Debating Society will hold Its regillar meet
ing at Clausaville, on Thursday Eve. The sub_
feet to be discussed is "Shall the right of suffrage
be extended to the women." The debate will be
opened In the affirmative by Asher H. Fatzinger,
and In the negative by John C. Karsten.
The mall between Kutztown and Schnecksville
made Its appearance again, and the excuse we s
that they had no key to'open the mall bag with.
Rather poor!
The new lodge of Knights of Pythias at Fogels
%ilk numbers upward of 60 members.
A great many of our farmers who have been
waiting to do their hauling with sleds, have at
last come to the wise conclusion to use wagons.
One of them, Joseph Krause, had a lot of sills to
be taken to the depot, and be madea hauling
partk, consisting of 20 four horse teams, on Thurs
day last, and ended the affair with a party at

TWO PULPIT STAIRS
BT TEE NET. J. ♦. LITTLE, OF HO/END/LINDA
What a luxury it is for a " dominie," after
months of steady, unintermitted, laborious appli
cation to his public pulpit duties, whata delight
some privilege to transform himself for one Sab
bath Into "a hearer of the word," sitting in some
private pew instead of the " sacred desk." now
he listens, appreciates, enjoys, with a zest which
can scarcely be understood by those who have
always sat lu the pew and never have stood in
the pulpit.
What thronging multitudes Docked the other
Sabbath, to hang upon the lipe of one who for
seven years past has dazzled. immense audiences
in Philadelphia, with his in illiaut eloquence, and
within a few menthe past has been added to the
galaxy of resplendent ministerial stars of Brooklyn
the " city of churches."
The singing was congregational, animating, In
epiriting, soul-thrilling. " Heaven is my home,"
wan the second hymn. " Let us slog It ue though
we meant it," pithily said Talmage ; and that
beautiful hymn was sung enjoyably, roueltigly, by
the large congregation tilling the large church oh
Schermerhorn street near Nevins, now enjoying
the pastorate of the Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage.
The sermon, only half an hour long, but brim
ful of genius, originality and spirituality, luid' . oa
theme, "The Martyrdom of Stephen," with Ave
unique heads or topics, viz: "Stephen gazing
up," " Stephen beholding Jesus," "Stephen
stoned," "Stephen praying," "Stephen asleep."
At times talking with you in the most familiar
conversational way, then again soaring to the very
highest flights of oratory, often drawing tears by
his pathos, always presenting pure gospel truth
In new, fresh, attractive ways, he held his great
audience spellbound as though enchained and en
tranced.
Beecher, Cuyler, Duryea, Storrs, have been
Justly ranked forrneost as preachers In Brooklyn,
If not in all the United States, "but now they
must look to their laurels," say Talinage's ardent
admirers, " their new competitor bids fair to bear
off the palm and be crowned by popular aCclama
non prince of all our brilliant pulpit orators."
In the afternoon, a large congregation tilled to
Its utmost capacity the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian
Church, corner of Nineteenth street, (New York
City), the former charge of the lamented Dr.
James N. Alexander, but now having an Its pastor
the Rev: John Hall, D. D. For years a distin
guished preacher In Dublin, the capital city of
Ireland, he was honored with a "golden" cull
from this wealthy, flourishing Fifth Avenue
church, one of the richest and proudest In the
Great Metropolis.
It was their communion service. A member
ship of eight or nine hundred communed, with
the addition of very many strangers, making In
all fully a thousand communicants, 'besides the
galleries being crowded full with spectators.
How simple, how solemn, how sublime almost
seemed that communion, especially as condieted
in that grand, gothic edidcc, and with so much
of simplicity, dignity, and sincere spirituality.
Dr. John Hail preaches pure gospel In the love of
it, and doing a glorious work by infusing no
much of gospel life, warmth and vigor amongst
the rich, refined, intellectual and' fashionable cir
cles, In which hie exalted position pieties him.
The half hour prayer meeting, in his spaelous ves
try building, a meeting held at the close Of every
Sabbath afternoon` service, gives. ample and un
rnistable evidence of what he is accomplishing.
It is Indeed a prayer. meeting. Prayer pervades
the very ntawephere, pervades 'the very soul.
Verily, the tight kind of Chrlathmity is that which
adapts Itself to all classes, the richest as well as
the poorest, the Ignorant as well as the educated,
the princely palace and the wretched hovel

To The Lehigh Register :
Your Correspondent In last week's Brannan re
ferring to the three sults against the Lehigh Crane
IronCornpahls either negligently or wilfully In error.
Instead of the three suite having 'been Instituted
for ‘• rendering the waters In the Lehigh Impure,"
they were brought for damages resulting from' the
muddy water of Guth's Ore Bed flowing Into the
Jordan, and rendering the waters of that stream
(the last afbresahl), Impure. And Instead of the
arbitrators awarding "each plaintiff one hundred
and sixty dollars and costs," they awarded each,
one hundred and twenty dollars and costs.
By giving the above a place In your next issue,
you will greatly oblige TUN ARBITHATORS.
ANOTIIER REASON WHY T. C. Hernahen,
of the old Allentowu China Store, sells cheaper
thin others, Is because big expense is not much
over half that °tinny other, In proportion to the
amount of business done.
