" A NARROW ESCAPE AND A DARING PEAT. —The Easton ErpreBs of Friday, May 20th, says Yesterday afternoon while •several little girls were engaged lu plucking wild flowers amongst the rocks bordering on the north side of Mount Jefferson, one of them, a daughter of a Mr. Daub, residing on the Lehigh, In reaching out over the hill, lost her hold on the rocks, and was precipi tated down the rugged and almost perpendicular hill-side, a distance of about thirty feet. Fortes Mitely her dress caught In sonic bushes, which prevented her from being dashed a lifeless, shape less mass upon the rough rocks one hundred and eighty feet below. Onr readers will remember that this recurred at the place where the solid walls of the hill rise, almost perpendicularly, too height of about two hundred and twenty-live feet above the Bushkin, and is Considered atonal im passable by any but the most hi in and practical climber. dery the little girl hung for some thin: with a horrible death awaiting her below, and tile cracking and the bending of the brittle bushes warning,ber that but a few moments might sepa rate her from her doom, while her little playmate 1 above could only wring her hands and make her agony known by her prayers and her shrieks. But ' no helping hand could reach her from the bill-top —and only death waited for her at the bottom. At last the cries of the Mlle one reached the ems of Messrs. Jtto Yolght and Samuel &March, of Phfillysburgh, who were then in the yard of the residence of the former, who at once rushed across the Bushkin to her relief. When they arrived at the fool of the hill and saw the fearful condition of the little sufferer and her frail support, Mr. Scburch at once threw off his coat, mind with the dating agility displayed by his countrymen, when they scale the cliffs of his own native Switzerland, he at once began Co scale the steep shies of Mount Jefferson, and after much labor, and many a scratch in his dangerous ascent, he folded the bleedingLiftle form In Ills strong arms, and held her firmly there mica others came to their assist once-. Persons soon coma there whit ropes, etc., and the child was securely fastened to a rope let down from above and gently drawn to the top, when the rope was In turn fastened to Mr. &Much and he aided in making Ids perilous ascent to the top of the hill. The chlid was about eleven years of age, and sustained several bruises about the lwad. A deed so daring, so noble as that of Mr. Schurch's deserves more than a passing notice. Thechild's escape was a miraculous ono indeed. LEHIGH REGISTER, ALLENTOWN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 25 1870.

CHECKMATE FOR A Start LAWYER.—Sev eral Ineactual attempts have been made to obtain possession of the residence of Mrs. E. Stofllet, on SCVelltil street, between Chew and Gordon. She is a highly respectable lady, who pmtly owns the property, and every effort to dispossess her of it by legal MUMS had failed, so, in the opinion of some sucking Chief Justice, other means had to be re sorted to. Possession, as: everybody known, is nine points of the law, and the great ambition of her enemies was to "obtain possession," and thus make Mrs. Sterna the plaintiff In an action of ejectment. The extreme subtlety of the plan that Was devised, 1111(i the remarkable skill and nieces, with which It was executed, were alike. worthy of the great minds of the originators. The following are the facts in relation to the' great scheme and Its operation. Sonic time since a lady from Nazareth came to board with Mrs. Staid, and was •received with kindness.. This very exemplary female (who, by the Way, is a school "Ea eller ), had entered the house of the widow /tit help to turn her info the street. Yesterday she wits too sick to go to school and stayed at home, but was well enough to open the door fur the adinission'ot half a dozen brave men who, while Mrs. Stotliet, was engaged in the back part of the house, began to carry out the furniture . and pile it in the street. But the neigh bors, who know and respect this persecuted lady, were not itele,p. They saw what was going On and they at once gave the alarm to Mrs. Stoillet who on coining to the front part of the house was forcibly ejected by one of the brave men.(She is a little woman or perhaps he would not have done It.) But she soda managed in tile confusion to slip back into the house and gain an up stairs room, Where she securely locked herself In and looking out of the window saw her household goodi; being piled on the pavement. By this time quite a crowd had gathered and some one had gone for Mrs. &offices legal ad viser, who, aftersending for some of his client's friends, was soon on the spot. By this time nearly every article of the widOw's furniture was in the street and the neighbors were iu a dreadful state of excitement and could scarcely he restrained front punishing the aggressors and defending, their friend. —Ye local of A warrant for the arrest of the parties was ob tained lo a hurry, and Officer liolford and Mrs. Stofilet's friends went into the house and began to do a little electing on their own account. About this time the worthy lady who honors our city by giving our children the benefit of lanr instruction and example, was scent, to use the words of an eye witness, "scooting" over the fence In mmost undignified manner. Whether she reached Naza reth or not, that evening, we do not know. Site was supposed to be very sick in the looming and is supposed to he touch sicker now. The fence flying lady having disappeared in the distance, and the noble band of warriors being safe in the custody of the Chief of Pollee and his assistants, the great crowd of neighbors and friends present began to replace the furniture. line gentle-man seized a cradle and ran Into the house with it, remarking that the cradle ought to go inside, as "we don't know what'll happen be fore this is over." Everybody went to work with heartiness anti good will, and very .soon had eve rything in the house again. Levi Stottlet, Joseph Stolliet, John Richards, John Simons, Geo. A. Bettis and Martin Knauss, were brought before Alderman Beck charged with having forcibly and illegally removed the furni ture. All of them, with the exception of Joseph Stothet, were bound over to appear at the next term of Court and to keep the peace. Joseph StoMet declares that he had nothing to do with the matter and he Into have a hearing on Saturday next. This noteworty Instance of sharp practice will certainly obtain a reputation for the gentlemen who "are entitled" to all the credit, hut.we doubt if It will boa very desirable one. ZION'S REFOUMED SUNDAY SCITOOL.-011 Sunday weck,the Sunday School room of the Zion's Reformed Church of this city, was re-opened wiih appropriate services. According to announce ment, the Rev. B. Reesman, of Reading, Pa., preached In the morning, (German) and iu the evening (English). The weather was favorable and the attendance good. In the afternoon, the Sunday School met at the usual hour and took possession of the room, which had lieen remodell ed and Improved at an expense of somewhat more than $5OO. The Improvements consbted mainly In adding several new windows and doors, re, Plastering and re-painting the room, changing and decorating tin rostrum, mottling all the aisles, an impkved bookcase for the library, new gas fixtures, window-shades, &e., to which were add ed many vases filled with natural 'lowers. The room presents a new and attractive appear ance, and is well calculated to make scholars and teachers cheerful, and above all, thank ful for their Christian privileges. The exercises, besides the regular devotional serviec:+, consisted of suitable hymns, which were sung by the . school and ad dresses delivered by the Rev. F.

This road extends from Conshohocken on the line of the Philadelphia, Germantown and Norristown Railroad, to ()reload on the North Pennsylvania Railroad, a distance of ten miles. It was laid out by Jesse Lightfoot and Joshua Comly, engineers, and has been built within the past two years, tin der the direct supervision of Robert Jamison,cri gineer. It runs through ono of the finest agricul , turn) regions in the State, and the scenery along the line Is beautiful. That section also abounds in limestone, and at the upper terminus of the road there is an excellent deposit of Iron ore. The main object accomplished in the construction of the road Is the direct transportation of iron ore from the Lehigh Valley to tho Schuylkill Valley, to supply the seven furnaces located at Consho hocken, Spring Mill and Norristown. There will also he a good miscellaneous freight business, comprising mills, lime, &c. The road is laid in the most substantial manner and is well ballasted with slag. The Wissahickon Creek, near Flour town, is crossed by means of a fine iron truss bridge, with eighty feet span. Just previous to reaching this bridge there' are six hundred feet of trestlework, twenty-feet in height, and with twen ty-live feet span. The road cost about $220.000. It is virtually a branch of the Philadelphia, Ger mantown and Nocristown Railroad. and was built under the auspices of that corporation. It will be operated by that company, under the direction of Mr. W. S. Wilson, General Supenutendent, and will he a valuable feeder to It. In addition to the freight trains, two passenger trains will he run daily, to connect with trains on the Norris town Railroad. Plymouth, and Flourtown, a tiouthhing village, are located on the line of the road. At drelund, the terminus, the Railroad Company owns eighty acres of land, and It is in tended to erect thereon dwellings for the use of employees. In after years, no doubt, this spot will be transformed into a thriving town. To celebrate the opening of the new road a special train left the P., G. and N. R. R. depot, Ninth and Green streets, nt 11.15 A. M It contained Conti; Colket, President, William S. Wilson, General Superintendent, Colonel John B.

The Excelsior Process From the American, Engineer " A correspondent of:the Bellefonte Republi can, who tins been on a visit to Allentown,, writes to that paper as follows : "It may be of interest to some of our Iron manufacturers In this country to learn that a new method of making steel out of paddled Iron was discovered at the hope Ito Plug Mill, at Allentown, about a week or ten days ago. Ily this process steel can be made at an expense not to czeeed that of making Iron of more than.one or one: and a half cents a pound, and In about the same time. I was shown quite a number of - samples of this steel In bars, knives, railroad rails, and In bands and am free to say, I could see no difference be tween It and our best cast steel. The company above named have • made quite a number of T ralle,capped with this steel and thus far have not found a single defeet In the weld—a square bar an Inch thick Was tested the other day (which bad nut been rolled or hammered) and It with stood a straits of 127,000 lbs., before.lt broke. The best hammered Iron will only draw 09,000 lbs. to the Square inch. This quality alone will make one of great Importance in the construction of buildings, bridges, locomotives, &e., where Iron is largely used, as the saute strength will be se cured wills but one half the weight." ' The Alienioten Daily Chronicle of the 10th says: " The Legislature having Incorporated the Le high Iron and Steel Company, to manufacture iron and steel under the above process, a stock company.wlll be organized and subscription books will be opened, for that purpose next week. Mr. Menose informs us that a port of n steel-capped rail, about eighteen inches In length, was sent to Trenton, where It wan subjected to an extraordi nary test by the Camden and Amboy Railroad Company. It withstood 5,500 blown, 500 more than any other rail bad ever borne. The parties were not then satisfied as to the durabliity•of the weld, but upon cutting the rail in half, lengthwise, Ii was ascertained that the test had produced no effect on the weld." The Lehigh Iron and Steel Company and the Hone Rolling Mill are gaining ts celebrity in con; nectlM with steel operations that Is very . satisfac tory• The paragraph from the DAILY CHRONICLE has been copied Into shores of papers and been the cause of considerable enquiry into the eteeldologo of Alleutown.

Thus, will) a judi cial district containing 500,000 inhabitants, the amount paid on one schedule would, nt two cents is head, be $lO,OOO. Two per cent. on this would be $OOO. This sum dist' limited among several as sistants would not make the collection tomunera- five, but might be sufficient to induce some per son of known aptitude far such inquiries, with perhaps a liege portion of material already at his his command, to work up the social statistics of the State In a satlialtelmy manner.

LECTURE IN PRESBYTERIAN ell URCII.—The at tendance In the Presbyterian church Sunday morn lug was large and a very Interestlog, sermon was delivered by the Rev. D. 11. Warner,on the official work attic Cross. In the evening there woe it full atteuilacce— numbers of persons bolo attracted by the later cutting subject of the lecture, which was an inside' clew of the condition of the State of Texas. The Reverend gentleman gave a most graphic description of the State of Texas, duringand after the war; of the outrages committed during the recent elections and the class of men with.whom these outrages originated. Himself n sairerer fu person and In pocket, having had his lione burned and been severely wounded, he fairly r:p resents the loyal population of the great State of Texas, and asks, not for more protection front the Government, which he believes Is doing its best for them, but for such an Influx of .Northern in dustry, mechanical genius HMI Intellectuality, as 8111111 strengthen the hands of the good citizens of that region and, making them strong enough to successfully withstand the attacks of the evil dis posed, help them to spread the arts of peace and give to the people, white and black; the education which they must have to make Texas what she ought to be, In the composition of this great COM monwealth. His description of the terrible condition of the people of that State since the war, shows how much they stand In need of such help as can be given them by young men and women who are qualified as teachers, for a primary school even, and what an excellent opportunity Oleic Is for mak Inn a very successful start In life In that region. The mildness of the climate, the great abundance of fruits and vegetables, the mere trifle for which the flamer can raise his cattle and the grants of land given to the settler, combine to•otfer strong temptation for any industrious and atribitious man, to cuter upon this good week. It !Wryly cannot lessen the desire for It to know, that while doing good to others the Northern settler In Texas ran be pretty sure of helping himself. Ten years resi dence in Texas ought to make a rich man of any int thWrions Northern man who will go there and carry with hint the thrift,knowledgc,and Wittiness like assiduity of the North. • •• The Reverend gentleman deprecated the send ing of • aliy of the kilo or drunken class of the Noah to the Slate of Texas. No said they had plenty of that kind of article and did not earn for any more. The Southern people of all classes and of all shades of opinion and color, are quite well aware that they have got to win', and they are quite willing to do hid they don't know how. In Texas they want Not them n men to settle who, while they are building up fortunes forthemselves, shall set such examples of Indust •y atilt - Christian enterprise as shall help the whol Southern peo ple to rise to a higher level In thee. le of eivilka tlon and gradunly entertninate the border ter tian" element by a moral rather than a political change. The lecture was listened to with marked atten tion and at its close a collection Ns'as taken up for the benefit of the Lecturer and his family who have been'harnt out of house and histne during the late election troubles. The Rev. Warner will shortly return to Texas to continuo his good work there and hopes to in duce so many Northern people to come and make their homes In that highly favored country, that they shall dwell In perfect safety, being a mutual protection one to another. Ile will leetnre in the Court House on Friday evening next, when we would recommend all our citizens, who have the opportunity, to hear tits practical experience of a practical man, concere'ng this highly interesting Aople.
