MURDERED BY A BURGLAR.— The New
Ihwen Journal of Thursildy says : On Wednesday
morning, at an early Lora•, the people of Milford
wore horrified by. hearing of the murder of Mr.
Nathan Fenn by a burglar. Repeated attempts
heretofore have hero made by burglars to rob Mr.
Fenn. On Tuesday night, after the close of his
store for the day, he took what money lie had on
hand, amounting, to 8200, to the house, and on
retiring placed the money beneath his pillow.—
Ile and his wife retired about 10 o'clock, ty a bed
room on the first floor. About 2 o'clock Mrs.
Fenn was aroused by hearing a noise. She list
ened a few seconds, when she became convinced
dial a man was hi the bedroom, endeavoring to
get into the closet where she kept her clothes.
She nudged her husband, who was asleep. lie
awoke with a sadden start, and asked what was
the matter, when site, in a whisper, told him that
three was a man ha the room. Mr. Fenn Instant
ly sprang from the bed, and as he landed upon
the floor a man arose tip In front of him, where
his pants lay, and retreated to the sitting room Its
rapidly as possible, Mr. Fenn pursuing him.—
What occurred in the sitting -room Is not known,
lint it is suppo;cil that Mr. Fenn seized the bur
glar, and wos fast getting the better of him,
when, to effect his escape, he placed a pistol to
Mr. Fenn's Fide and fired. As Mr. Fenn went out
of the bedroom, Mrs. Fenn hastily arose and open
d the window on the East side, and shouted as
lond as possible, " Murder, help, help." Iler cry
had scarcely ceased when the report of the pistols
shot was heard, and Mr. Fenn immediately after
staggered Into the bedroom with hi's hand pressed
upon his left side, and exclaiming, "'Wife, I'm
shot," fell to Ow floor al her feet. Ile made no
other remark, and In fifteen minutes he expired.
Immediately a (ler 11(11 report of the pistol, and
before Mr. Fruit reached the bedroom, Mrs. Fenn,
while at the window, saw the man who had com
mitted the deed appear on the east side of the
house and Pass rapidly to the corner, where he
met an aecomplice with whom a word or two
'hurriedly spoken, find then both fled. It is sup
posed that they leaped the garden fence, and ran
across the lots in a southerly direction, lint to
what point is unknown. A neighbor states that
a short time after the alarm was given he saw two
men in a carriage drive rapidly past, In the direc
tion of New-liaven. The village church bells
were rung. and the people gathered rapidly from
ali directions. Int.n,t, eXeitement prevails. The
selectmen met hero, Ii o'clock in the morning,
and offered a reward of ::- , 1 : 000 for the apprehen
sion or the murderer. Messengers were sent to
warn the pollee of Bridveport and New-flaven.—
But lilt trace of the burglars has yet been found.

BADLY BEATEN. One day last week
a man called Slippery Harkins; was found
lying at the cast end of the East Mauch Chunk
Bridge, In an insensible condition, caused by a se
vere beating lie received during the night by some
unknown person or persons. His face and head
was badly cut and bruised, and his person bore
evidence of some very rough handling. Occur
rences of this kind are too frequent in this locality,
and will continue unless the authorities across the
river adopt some measures to rid the bridge or the
lounging, blackguards that nightly congregate
along its passages.. Why not place an efficient
police officer at this point, and pay him for his
services, and let It be his duty to inquire into the
business of those who see proper to congregate
and spit out Indecent and blasphemous language
to every passer by.' Until this is done we need
not hope to discontinue the chronicling. Of occur

UNCiSuAt. THUNDER-STOIM.—The town
of Dauphin is situated on the Suiquebana River,
right miles above Harrisburg, at the foot of a
mountain SOO feet high, and Is noted for the num
ber and violence of the storms that fall upon It.
Being walled in with mountains, storms seem to
have converged at this point and net on the night
of Juno 27. Masses of the electric fluid appeared
to pour forth from the dark clouds, lighting up
the whole valley for miles, while the terrillethun

was surcharged with electricity that Sashed along
the telegraph wires and railroad track like sparks
front red-hot iron under the blows of a hammer.
Only one person a little girl was killed ; several
houses were struck, and a barn received live dis
tinct strokes within 20 minutes, but, being provid
ed with a lightning-rod, escaped uninjured. The
lightning struck into the mountain hundreds of
times. Large rocks, disphn•ed he the force of
the shocks and the heavy lulu, came tearing down
the mountain side with loud noisi;, and added to

The storm lasted about two hours. •
11E:EERIER'S SPRINO—THE PRESBYTERIAN
Pic•Nic.—Last week the children of the Presby
terian Sabbath School trith their teachers and
friends, had a pie-nic In, the woods at lielfrhili's
Spring. Permission to use this beautiful and ro
mantic spot was Mildly given by Mr. Ilelfrichona
all who participated are indebted to him for a
most enjoyable day. General McAllister, Dr. W . .
Romig and the lion. S. A. Bridges, who were
present, were the leading spirits In keeping up the
fun for the children, and It was it very pleasant
sight to . see them surrounded by a perfect crowd
of happy looking young ones, who were laughing
and shouting with all the freedom and absence of
restraint inseperable from a day hi the woods.
The eatables were supplied on the usual scale
of profusion peculiar to Pennsylvania. More than
enough for the piety was brought home again,
notwithstanding the fact that some of the gentle
men devoted themselves to their demolition with
the eimstaney of martyrs. One gentleman, cope
chilly, took dinner at five tables. Modesty for

An adventurous party of holies and gentlemen
descended the almost perpendicular skim of the
hill which overhangs the Jordan. The perils and
ludicrous Incidents of the descent were laughable
and dilapidating. Once down, to scale the face
of that cliff-like hill was impossible—for ladies.•
Nothing remained but to cross the stream,and that
romantic picture of Heath's, "Crossing the
Brook," was realized In the scenes which fol
lowed. By a eireultuous route, through "lovely
woods and romantic dells," the exploring party
joined the main body of the pie -Melons, who were
swinging, laughing, running and enjoying them
selves hugely..
Of course some one had to go into " the cave,"
and a lantern being procured, a party of ladles
and gentlemen, appropriately attired In white and
attended by a number of ,the bolder among the
boys, Went us far as they could get Without hav
ing to, crawl. They saw a curiosity 'of nature .
and got a good " chill" and lots of mud ; the orig
inal corm of their garments, in some instances,
being a mutter of conjecture.
The rain that visited the city Its the afternoon
kindly passed by the woods and it was not until
after tea, when the "shades of evening were elos,
lug o'er us," that a smart shower compelled
everybody to look for shelter. The plc-tile was a
great success. Everybody seemed heartily to en
joy themselves and the transportation department
under the care of Mr. George Stueltert, of this
city, was admirably managed. Mr. Stuckcrt Is
Jett the man for a party like this. Good-hearnM,
genial. and obliging, be enters Into the spirit of
the thing, never loses temper, Is a great favorite
with the children and . very careful of their safety.
We commend Mr. Stuckert heartily to all those
having need of his services.

continually arriving during the afternoon, counted
over a hundred, and thiS last load did not get Into

TUB PRESBYTERY OF LEHIGH.
116KENDACQVA PARSONAM , :,
July Ilth, IM7O.
Dear Editor : " Better late than never," Is the
oft quoted adage. I have been waiting for some
other pen to tell your readers about the new
" Synod of Philadelphia" and " Presbytery of
Lehigh." Even at the risk of being " late," two
or three weeks after its occurrence let me in lieu
of some more competent pen, give a few jottings
an to our meeting In Philadelphia.
By appointment of the great reunited General
Assembly, the Synod met in Spring Garden Pres-
byterian Church. There were present 1111 minis
ters and i 5 elders, this single synod of the late
Old 'and Nor School Presbvterlanti of Eastern
Pennsylvania comprising in all 220 churches and
240 :ninisters. Of these nearly 70 Presbyterian
churches are within the bounds of the city of Phil
adelphia.
No one was more conspicuous,and deservedly so,
than the Rev. Dr. Musgrave, that noble old cham
pion ol " reunion," and on this occasion the Wife
headed, magnanimous helper onward of " recon
struction." The manly form, the sonorous voice
of Richard 11. Allen, D. D., were justly Prominent
among the late New School men. Dr. Allen Is a
great favorite, permit me to say, with us lloken
(lamina folks, having preached a splendid sermon
last fall at the dedication of our beautiful, tall
spired church on the appropriate words, " Beauti
ful for situation Is Zion, the city . of our Clod," and
having delivered during the winter the 'lest popu
lar lecture ever given In this young ?lace.
And not far from Dr. A. In synod sits' the
Rev. Thomas J. Shepherd, D. D., win's. , charge
to the pastor at the first installation services ever
held in Ilokendanqua—was a model charge, per
fectly finished, graceful .ttul comprehensive.
The Moderator, chosen by unanimous 11.,1111111L

highly Motored and ever excellent pastor of the
Presbyterian church of Reading., Allentown was

Wood, arc we of this vicinity Indebted for the suc
cessful advocacy of forming " Lehigh Presby
tery" as now con stituted, comprising the counties
of Northampton and Monroe, Lehigh and Car
bon, Berke and Schuylkill, also Luzerne south of
Wilkesbarre mountain. Our now and noble Pres
bytery was pronounced even by prominent Phila
delphia pastors to be the " very best" of the seven
Into which the Synod of Philadelphia divided It
self. As will De readily perceived, it cotupriscs
places of such importance as Stroudsburg, rill,
Bethlehem, Allentown, Catnsatpta, Mauch
