We . bave no desire to mention names or to draw
public attention to the individuals concerned, but
we think the sentiment of the community should
be so plainly expressed towardtothis class of ant
untie who beat their wives, as to make them feel
uncomfortable, If not ashamed. To strike n wo
tutu' Is the act of a cowardly ruffian, and for a
husband to beat.his wife Is not only this, but a
shame and a disgrace to the whole community he
contaminates by his presence.

ENCITINO CHASE.— Last week Constable
Henry, of the Second Wen], tact Wilson Decherd
In Law alley. Wilson knew that the Constable
held a warrant for its arrest, and did not care to

tance between himself and his pursuer. The con
stable drew his revolver, and during the chase fired
three shots at the flying culprit, neither of which,
however, had any effect beyond making hint take
longer strides, and finally Wilson succeeded In get

ManitxmlE.—We lake a great deal of pleas•
ure in announcing the marriage of Werner K.
Rube, who last week took unto himself Miss

zens, who has been connected with the manage
ment of the Allentown Lanhcrat for some years,
and has gained for himself numerous friends who
are shoircring "good wishes" for the happy cou
ple on this occasion. For ourselves, we wish 111111
every kind of happines's In the future mid the en-
Joyment of all that domestic felicity which Is the
crowning glory of life.
To be born and to be burled are little incidents
that are certain to occur in the life of the most
luckless Individual, but to draw a prize In the mat
rimonial lottery happens only to a few, favored,
fortunate once. This best gift of Fortune has been
granted unto Mr. Rube, and wc are sure that
the blind goddess has nude as good a selection In
the bestowal of her favors as if she had given
them with her eyes open.

the diffusion of useless knowledge amongst the in

In fulfilment of his onerous daties he has made
some very choice and profound remarks, concerns
lug a prayer that was delivered at the Moravian
Cemetery, on the occasion of the dedication of the
soldiers' graves at Bethlehem on Monday last.
" To Millet the ears of the Almighty with such
fanatical halderbash, especially on such ati ocea
slot], is not prayer, but sacrilege and blasitheiny.."
'rhisis thin criticism of the new Censor, Rua his
knowledge of the " nithetlom" of the Almighty

erend Cennor, we cannot help thinking, that to
disgrace and bring shame upon the profession of
a Christian Minister, a man must do something
worse than to pour out a fervent prayer, which Is
ma made " unto man but unto God."
It is scarcely o safe precedent that is here estab

IMPROVEMENTS IN outs ClTY.—Among the
contemplated improvements in our city none me
snore worthy of nubile attention and approbation
than those which contemplate providing us with
better and snore durable roads. The various pave
ments which have superseded the old-fashioned
road, are probably new to many of our citizens,
and while they are desirous that AllentoWn should
I , ave the best kind of rends, they are as yet com
paratively ignorant of the best means to he ens
plo:cd to obtain the end desired. Several gentle
men, representing firms who make this business
their specialty, have been here lately recommend

representing the patentees propose to put this

holders there will bear a slight portion of the ex
pense.
Ofcourse, we cannot tell what action the Coun
cil will take In the matter, but It appears to us the
priposition may be well worthy of adoption, es

agreed to use this pavement in Green street, Phil

might have been injured, caused some confusion,

the workmen were all away from that part of the
works. The foundation of the stack gave way,

a considerable loss In consequence of the delay as
well a: the necessity for repairing the damage
and replacing the stack. The stack was of sheet
Iron and about 0 feet In diameter and 30 feet high.
It has been In use since the year 1854 and there
was no apprehension of Its being unsafe. Had
the accident. occurred In the day time, some of the
workmen would undoubtedly have been injured
and we might have had to record a shocking dis

TUE PAnAnE.—The liberality of the citizens '
of Allentown is never more wisely exerted than In
the Interest which they take In their lire depart
ment, and the admirable order and efficiency of
this body Is the delight of our citizens a n d the ad
miration of all who behold it. The promptitude
and fearlessness which has always distinguished
our firemen in moments of - emergency, and the
services they have rendered our citizens In keeping
our city so safe from tires until within the last few
months, that Its safety became a bye-word. well
deserved the recognition It has received at the
hands of our citizens generally. It Is, therefore,
with pleasure that we record such a display as
hag delighted this week ; a display alike creditable
to our city and the well-disciplined and admirably
equipped body of men who took part In it.
It may not at first sight be apparent to the
superficial observer why we, In common with the
whole community, should applaud that which to
him appears only to have the meaning of a gor
geous show gotten up for the purpose of amuse
meta and the gratification of display. Let such
a one consider how the inhide of :ten are stimu
lated to a love for their profession and a. desire for
Its improvement, as well as to bravely deserve the
enconlums It receives, and they will be very dull
If, they cannot see that there is something behind
the mere outward display that Is of permanent
goal and caleulated to increase the efficiency of
the, brave Home Guards of ours.

Dr. Charlei 11. hooter, a well-known physician
and a very popular citizen of this place, died last
eveahr4 at bye o'clock of heart dwells°. Dr.
Hunter was well known through Lehigh County.
During the war, In 1863, when the Slate troops
from Allentown came to this place, he saw tothcir
comfort and was personally engaged to securing
comfortable quarters. The late Major Selp's
company, (Co. D., 41 I'. V. M.) was intended to
be in Dr. Hunter's Regiment, the 42d. lie was a
graduate of Princeton College, and, also, of the
Medical Department of the University of Pennsyl
vania. Ills death is mourned by all who knew
kites, his great kindness, tuts magnanimity won the
esteem of all, and any public or social enterprise
had the hearty co.operation of Dr. hunter. Pa
triotic and public spirited,, always working for the
interest of everybody, his loss is felt as a citizen as
well as a friend. When a physician of the merit
and popularity of Dr. Hunter dies, his loss Is not
only felt by his immediate friends, but by every
one of those who remember with gratitude his
ministrations In the hour of sickness and his words
of hope to the dark hours of despair. So, many
mourn this good man gone. Having filled a use
ful and honorable position In life and worked
" while It wits called to-day," the night of death
has come to Dr: Ilunter very suddenly but not so
suddenly as to lied hint unprepared. In the midst
of many scenes of affliction, where the duties of
his noble profession had called him, he had learned
to fully eomprehend that " In the midst °NHS we
are in death." So he ceases from his labors and
sinks to that rest where all the pain

OUR ARKANSAS LETTE •
Meeting of the U.S. District Court
Severe Sentences—:A Former Rest-,
dent of Easton in Trouble.
VAN Bones, Aux., May 24th, 1870.
Every boarding house in Van Buren has, during
the past few weeks, been thronged with guests,
anti every saloon has had its full share of patrons,
all of whom are here to attend the U. B. District
Court, for the Western District of Arkansas, which
is now in session. Contrary to all anticipations,
no serious nll•ays have occurred, and it is Loped
that everything will pass off peaceably. Among
those in attendance are General McDonald, Su
pervisor of Internal Revenue, Colonel Joyce, his
assiStant, lion. 11. C. Caldwell, District Judge,
Col. Whipple, of Little Rock, Generals Thomason
and Cabbell, Confederate oflicers, and others.
Most of these were, during the late Rebellion, ar
rayed on one side or the other, and instances can
be re.called where those, who now greet each
other es warm friends. met 6 deadly combat on
the bloody tleld of battle. Of the Indians we no
tice representatives of the Creek, Chlektisau,
Choctaw and Cherokee tribes, sonic of whom are
here to testify in cases now pending before this
Court, while others have charges preferred against
them. Col. Houston, of Fort Gibson, Col. Boone
and Major Woodward,of Fort Sill, Lieut. Harmon,
of Fort Arbuckle, and other U. B. A. °dicers, are
also here. Col. Boone is an aged frontier pioneer,
mid Is a son of the Kentucky hunter, Col. Daniel
Boone. Lieut. Win. R. Harmon arrived heron few
days ago hi charge of several horse thieves. The
prisoners stole Ill) mules near Fort Harper, Kan-
Kis, succeeded in traveling across the Indian Ter
ritory without being overtaken by thevarties who
started in pursuit of them, and had already
reached the border of Texas, when Lieut. Harmon
struck their trail. lie overtook them near Gaines
ville, Texas, took nine of them prisoners and re
covered all the stolen property. Subsequently
several of theta attempted to escape, but were fired
upon and four of their number killed and two
wounded. The surviving criminals are now con
fined hi jail here. Quite a number. of cases have
been tried during this term, the majority having .
been arraignedt for introducing whiskey Into the
Indian country. Among these convicted is " Call
foinM Joe," one of Sheridan's most trustworthy
scouts. The evidence against him was not very
conclusive, but the Jury returned a verdict of
guilty, and he was sentenced to imprisonment In
the penitentiary for the term of one year. McCur
tain, a Choctaw Indian, who was convicted of
murder, had his sentence pronounced, which he
received with apparent indifference.
• The case Of the United States against Maj. E.
C. Boudinot, Gov. Walker anti others, for manu
facturing tobacco in the Territory without paying
any Revenue, was concluded' to-day and resulted
In a verdict in favor of the Government. The
evidence deduced, however, shows that Major
Roudinot bad received permissien.from the Com
missioner of Internal Revenue, to carryon the
manufacturo of tobacco in the Cherokee Nation,
and that ho was to 'stamp ouch tobacco. only no
' .
.He undoubtedly fully •ore Plied With,lhese re
quirements, yet the decision of the court-is, that
everything pertaining to the factory and alt the
tobacco le forfeited to the United States.
Colonel George Coolbaugh was tried and con,
vieted for robbing the U. 8. mall and sentenced to
fifteen years imprisonment. He was formerly a
resident of Easton, and has held high official po
sitions in Pennsylvania, Indiana, lowa, and Wy
oming. During the war 'm served on-askuintl
licPherson's staff, and was held IA high estima
tion by Gen. Grant. Last summer •ho Came to
Arkansas In pecuniary circumstances and received
employment in the post-offiee at Clarkullle. •
During last winter soma' registered letters, con
taining money, were lost, and some Irregularities
occurring In that office, he was arrested by order
of Col. Sehaurtie, special mull agent. The evi
dence
against him was circumstantial, bat the
jury returned a verdict of guilty. All who take
nn interest in his welfare, hope the President will
pardon him, and that those who were the cause
of his ruin, will speedily be brought to jastieen
That tie is Innocent I have not the least doubt. •
lie is now lying ill In jail here, but is improving
and will probably be well enough in a feW days to
go to Little Rock, where ho is to be confined.
Other letters have been talsou out of the wail at •
Clarksville since Col. G. was arrested, and suspi
cion Is now resting upon other persons.
Scarcely a day passes but that wo hear of horri
ble murders perpetrated in different parts of the
State, moat of them, however, being of a personal
character. Capt. W. 0. Illekox, the efficient and
fearless clerk of Popo county, was fired at through
a window several. nights ago. Ells bed was rid
dled with bnekshots, but he escaped uninjured.
The report from Galley Rock that William Tucker
was stabbed and killed by his father while gamb
ling,turns out to bo incorrect. William was stabbed
but is recovering.
The weather during the past few wake has
been very warm, the thermometer belagnp to 95 0
In tile shade. No rain has fallen for over a
injured. Reports from the Southern part of the
State are very flattering. The planters expect an
abundant supply of apples and peaches. In the
Northwestern counties they were killed by the
frost In April. Dark clouds are just beginning to
loom up In the West, promising a weleoroo shower
of rain. U. S.
