TORPEDOES.—Tho time—Fourth of July— Is fast approsching for the general explosion of torpedoes. But this Is not the kind of lire works we wish to refer to now•. The Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Com pany use on their rood, to prevent accidents, a kind of torpedo they call " fog signals." They are manufactured under the superintendency of Me A. H. Phillippl, at the Company's shone, south-west corner Seventh and Chestnut streets, this city. They are used on the road during foggy weather, when the signal lights on the towers . cannot be seen, and also on some other occasions. Three are always placed on the track a short dis tance apart, so that If one should not be heard when the wheels strike It the others may be. The explosion of a torpedo on the finch is alwayS warning of danger ahead, and the engineer stops the • train. , Rome 35,000 torpedoes arc manufactured and used each year by the Reading Railroad Company. For this number three-fourths of a ton of the finest rifle powder Is used. The extensive use of the above signals is na evidence of the great care exercised by the oi➢cers and employes of the Philadelphia & Reading Rail• road Company to prevent the occurrence of ncel: cuts on the road,L—Reading Eagle. • THE Norristown Hose Company will go on an excursion to Cape May on the 29th of July. A NAnnow ESC/Mi.—During one of the recent thunder sterms n gentleman at Catawissa. had so narrow nn escape from death ns to be al most miraculous. lie was In a carriage, and had taken refuge from the storm upon a covered bridge.

Tlll Cnol.o.—The grain and grass through this section of the country Is in a lamentable edit dittos and unless we soon have a continued season of sunshine these crops will be failures. In pass ing through the country we saw whole Itelds of luxuriant grass and grain flattened almost todhe earth by the recent rains, and the wheat Is hi great danger front rust.

TAKING THE CENSUS.-111 endeavoring to take the census for the Government, the marshals occasionally meet with such dilliculties as to well-nigh deprive them of their own senses. The following colloquy Is said to have once taken place In Clapboardtown, between a deputy marshal and nu Irish woman:— "llow many male members hare you In the family 7" IZZEII " When were you married 1" "The day Pat Doyle left Tipperary for Amer lky. All, well I mind it. A suashinier day nicer glided the sky of owld Ireland." " What was the condition of your husband be fore marrincer "Divil a man more miserable.

Acker, for the Democratic nomination for COMXITSS111:111. Al though the rules of that party concede the nomi nation to Montgomery there is a possibility that the present member. Mr. Stiles, may lake advan tage of the fend, and, going Into the ennvention with a fall delegation from Lehigh to back him, may defeat both the Montgomery county aspir ants. We do not say that Mr. Stiles will stoop to such a ides, little, sharp game, but ,only suggest that it may be feasible. The position Mr. Stile' now occupies is a pleasant one and appears to be suited to his tastes. Who could blame him for resorting to a little strategy to continue in the .1:- flee? Them as Dr. Acker, who has had no expe rlence In the matter at all, is likely to be the suc cessful ono of the Montgomery county aspirants, wouldn't it be snore to the interests of the party to elect an old soldier like Mr. Stiles 1 But that sug gests another inquiry: would a Lehigh county man who had obtained the nomination when he had no right to It be swallowed by the Montgomery coun ty Democrats? The party bits not been very har monious In that end of the District for several years past—the old sores have been plastered over, not healed—and, in our opinion, it would only take a coup Weld( of this character to inake a thou sand or two of their voters stay at home on elec tion ddy. ' LIFE IN UTAII ; Olt THE MYSTERIES AND CRIMES 01' MORMONISM ; being an crime of their secret rites and ceremonies, trills n full and authentic history of Polygamy .and the Mormon Feet, from its origin to the present time ;'' by J. H. Beadle, editor of the Salt Lake Reporter, is the title of a valuable work Just issued by the National Publishing Co., Philadelphia, Pa. For more than thirty years the world has been horrified, startled and perplexed by the, audacity and success of a sect calling themselves Mormons. Though founded In fraud, this sect has succeeded In spite of all opposition, until It Is tmday the standing reproach s of oar country. The Author's tong residence in Utah, and Ids position as Editor of the leading journal of that Territory, peculiarly mtaillied him to write this work. Mormonism has been productive of so many dark and strange mysteries—so many tura- le crimes that few can comprehend, without an nlhnnte knowledge of It, how much wickedness t line to answer for, and what a standing menace to order and. society It Is. The work shows bow Joe Smith and Brigham Young have been enabled to deceive, nod cheat their followers; how by leading them on from crime to crime, and enticing then; with licentious baits, they have succeeded In maintaining their In fluence over thorn; and treats of the Mormon ,re- Iglon, Its Infamous and heathenish character, Its multitude of gods, its abominable doctrines and practices, revealing many strange and outrageous ceremonies. Of the Endowment or Initiation cere monies, showing how °Nicene and disgusting they arc; how female. modesty Is outraged In them, and how licentiousness is taught as a part of [hell' religious - creed. It Is important that the public should know what manner of people nio growing up In our very midst. This weritgives au authentic nod fall; amnia 'of their degraded social condition, , their blasphemous rites and ceremonies, their sac rilegious doctrines and practices, and is the most thrilling and startling nceohnt of lic f entiouseess and mhos ever published. It is calculated to do great good by giving to the publle a candid and Impartial statement or a question which bids fair to cause no little trodble. The book Is sold only by subscription, and agents aro wanted In ovary county. • • THE LEHIGH REGISTER, ALLENTOWN, WEDNESDAY, JTJNE 22 1870.

This time It is an effort to annul the divorce obtained by his wife In Indiana. If he will take a little gOod advice he will use some exertion to suppress himself for a while. There is such a thing as overdrawing on the bank of public sympathy, and this last draft of the shooting lunatic will certainly go to protest. Believing, as we do, in the right of any man to Mice the law into his own hands, as against the peducer of his Wife, we were earnestly desirous bi see Mc- Farland acquitted on his recent trial for mur der. But when,-after the trial was over and Ile was pronounced not guilty, he voluntarily furnished for publication In the newspapers, letters written to hint by his wife years ago, and in no way connected with either the se I'[RE! FIRE!! FIRE!!! On Tuesday morning, soon after 1 o'clock, the cry of "Fire" was raised on our streets, and soon afterwards the tiro bell rang out the alarm for the Fourth Ward. A largo number of people were quickly on the street, running to the scene of destruction, which was Fountain Alley between I Inmiltpn and Linden streets. The flames shot up to an immense height and it was very evident that the lire had gained great headway. On reaching the spot we found that three stables were burning, owned respectively by Tilghman Kramer, Henry B. Guth and Edward Scherer. The fire broke out in the stable of Mr. Kramer, and is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary. =I in Mr. Kramer's stable was that of a horse, a sleigh, a track wagon, some hay, harness. etc., the property of Alexander Knauss, who rented the stable. Mr. Knauss estimates his loss at between $2OO and $3OO, on which there is no insurance. The building was insured, but we have not learned for how much. The middle stable was occupied by Frederick Bader, who was tumble to save anything of its contents. Ile estimates his loss at between $3OO and $4OO. No insurance either on build ing or stock. The third building was owned and occupied by Mr. Edward Scherer. The contents were a horse, two buggies, two large hogs, harness, sleigh, etc. The live stock was all saved. The insurance on stock and stable was $373. I=l After getting into service soon obtained the mastery or the flames and prevented any further mischief. Mr. John Howen's house adjoining was saved by their cxertions and by the tact that the heavy rain of the preceding night had so thoniughly soaked everything that it would not readily take lire. As it was the weatherboard and the roof in one or two 'different places was burned through. . =I were, smoking and were visited by numbers of people after daybreak. • Everything goes to confirm the suspicion of ineendiarisin and points to the fact that it is not yet time to relax our vigilance iii guarding against this reline.

Tins proceedings of the State Sunday School Convention which held its first sessile, thereto-day at half-past two, have been marked by an amount of enthusiasm and interest unparalleled in the history of the Sunday-school work In this State, and the delegates have been received and enter tained by the citizens of Harrisburg with a hearty hospitality that is creditable alike to the city and the SundaV-school influence in this vicinity. The indications are that this will be the most numerously attended, Sunday-school Convention ever held in the State. Over seven hundred dele gates have sent i n their names and they have been arriving in troops all day long. ..15 fist as they arrive, they, on handing their credential, to the local committee, are assigned to places of en tertaltiment,and one Or two are must C115C;,11.2.11 ill the magnificent resi dence, on Front street which overlook the " rolling Susquehanna."

The evening session was Wilt Very interesting nature ; the . question " What are the religious wants of our Stale and what are our‘Sanday schools doing to meet them I" being discussed. A large number of delegates from all parts of the country participated in the discussion. During the day a letter from G. If. Stuart woo read, regretting that compelledihlin to be absent.

Ad:loomed till 9,30 to-morrow The second day of the Slate Sabbath School um•eling was marked by au exhibi tion of increased interest and a larger attendance than that of the tlrst day. The questions. dis cussed were,—in the morning, "Should Sunday schools be kept open every Sunday in the year 1" and ilow can our Sunday-school ehildren be best used for the CNiellSl.lll of Christ's Kingdom ?" In the " How Call Sunday-schools be :mole more fruitful in Spiritual resultsl" and `• W11:11 stolid,' be the :dm of our Association and how should It hest be attained t" di-eussion of oie, questions was animated and interesting, developing the furl that the ardor awl vigor of the county organizations and the. trend Sabbath-selatol wort: tlnoughont the coun try, is on the increase, and ineltinc the different delegates to greater effort and to sell-sacrificing, consecration to the work ',fore them. One of the pleas:nth-a features of the 111011111114 session was a reet,a of nee minutes for the ma p°, ilr members introducing themselves to : each other and indulging In n social chat. The been.: to tire Sp:IC . 1011S and crowded church during this recess was one not easily to be forgotten. The coot feeling and brotherly spirit Reheating the delegates found expression In various ways, and the smiles and pleasant Itadts and pleasant words all over the body of the chervil, as the delegates ! shook hands and talked together, math: one of the most animated and pleasing sights that can well be imagined. Tlw champion worker of th, stac, Mr. )lord=, of York county, was introduced by the chairman, who stated that he had been lift rears in the work. Tl,t brought out two other veterans, Mr. W. B. Irvin, of Perry county, and Mr. Kingsbury, of Philadelphia, the first of whom has been en gaged in the work ilfty•four years and the latter 111'1y-one. The featthes of the day in the i - vny of speeches were the admirable remarks of Rev. Brown, For eign Missionary from India, those of :Rev.

The afternoon AMR devoted to Children's meet- Ingi In different chureine,, and members of the Convention,whn had been appointed by the Chair man, addre,sed them. The report of the Suite Secretary, Lewis D. Vail, of Philadelphia, was rend by him during the even ing Scsrtion.

Garrigues, Philadelphia; I. R. Tay lor, Erle ; S. W. Wykoff, Luzerne ; N. B. Johnson, Montgomery; Rev. It. Crittenden, Lycoming. The enthusiasm and "working spirit" of the State Convention this year Is unbounded, and the whole allhir is ahead of what has been done be fore. The last day of the sessions of the State Sabbath School Association was !narked by the ammo de gree of Interest and the same full attendance on the part of delegates and spectaters,that has char acterized the meeting throughout. Notwithstand ing the frequent ',teary showers dining the day, the elte:ch was crowded. The morning session was tccl:el up nearly eliugether by the questions delegates on Sabbath-school subjects, to the President, 11,v. (1, A. l'eltm and his replies there •o. This was not the regular 0t.12r of exercises, hut It seemed to Le the dalre of thedelogates, and the readiness of resource shown by the President and the very interesting and valuable information ho gave upon the different subjects fully justified this departure from the programme. Ears. eat words of counsel tothe working Sunday-school men, in the trials and difficulties they ham to en• counter, were given, not with any offensive show of superiority, but with a kindly heartiness that displayed the warm feeling of the President towards his fellow-laborers, as well. as his love for the cause. Did space permit I would like to give you a thll account of the sayings and doings of the later sea. dons of this great Convention ; for, as the time approached for parting, each speaker seemed to be more desirous of Impressing the audience with the magnitude and importance of the work before I heni,lu the next twelve months. For the facilitation of business in the different parte of the State; it was deemed necessary by the Business Committee to Increase their number from ilfteen'to twenty-five, and ten appointments for that purpose were made by them and confirmed by the action of the Convention. To represent the Business Committee In Lehigh, the Rev. Richard Walker was chooses, and to our county. which of late years has' done so well, the that* Convention evidently looks for all that support told co-openttlon of which It 'tondo In need In all parts of the State. There Is no doubt that nudes the able management of our local otllcers,.thta great work of the Sabbath-school will prosper and tlourleb. In the afternoon the committee on the locaticts of the next place of m eeting reported in favor of the city of Reading, but, the promise of the State Convention made last year, the desire of our peo• pie and the advantages of our location being set forth by your delegates, the Convention, stabiles (mealy, unanimously voted to bold its next meets g In Allentown. As triers Is no doubt that the Association will crease In size and Importance, and as our pron. hnity and easy communication with New York and Philadelphia will bring many of the celebrated Sunday-school men from those cities, we may look for one of the largest religious gatherings ever lucid in this State, to be bold in Allentown next year.. The hospitality of our people and the reputation the Lehigh county folks have for pa lateness and attention to their guests cause the decision of the Convention to be received with general satisfaction. Of the many interesting doings and sayitigs that marked this last day, I can only take space to mention one which stood prominently forward as the most interesting and valuable exercise to the whole body of persons assembled In the church. I allude to the remarks of the lion. Israel 8. Diehl, who gave a graphic account, illustrated by relics, pictures, etc., of his doings in "Bible Lands." Three times his time was extended by vote of the entire audience, and he good-naturedly kept on answering questions and relating Incidents In con nection with his recent visits to the localities where the great events of Bible history transpired. The evening meeting was a deeply Interesting one and will long be remembered by those who participated in it. Words of counsel and of good cheer were spoken, and the hearts of all seemed to be brought closer together as the time for sop oration drew nearer. Ono or two of the speeches might• have bees judiciously shortened, but, though the usual time of dismissal came and was exceeded by an hour, the audience lingered yet to see the close of the meeting. The Chairman, General Beaver, spoke the last words, bidding all " farewell," and ad. vcrting to the fact that the coming year was full of the uncertainties, of life,— that for many there might he waiting the summons of the messenger of death, but as good soldiers of the Cross, It be came them all to be steadfast and to " watch," anti then, when'eer the summons came, the Sing would say "well done." I cannot close this short, hurried and imperfect account of this great and important meeting with out once more reverting to the kindness and nu. bounded hospitality of the citizens of the capital.
