TITE STOIIM AND A FlRE. —Tuesday after noon, about four o'clock, we were visited by a terrific thunder storm, and the rain fell in torrents for an hour and a half, completely deluging our streets. A little after half past four o'clock, a vivid flash of lightning, quickly following by deafening peals of thunder, startled the nervous, and In about fifteen minutes afterwards our streets resounded with the alarm of fire. The rain was still failing and the firemen responded quickly to the alarm. The fire was found to be in a hay shed on the farm of Charles Beagreitves, Esq., situated ou the Tenth street road, a short distance out of the city, but it being ascertained that their services would be of no avail our firemen returned to their quarters. The amount of hay burned Is estimated at fifteen tons and the total loss is set dein at $350. CRAWFORD COUNTY SYSTEM.—This year, says the Doylestown Intelltgeticer, the Democrats of Ducks county will nominate the candidates on their county ticket according to a new plan cut and dried by a few of the leaders last fall. It was adopted by the party assembled In convention nt the request of Judge Rose, who left It behind as a parting legacy to Ills political friends In Bucks. There was nt that time considerable opposition to the scheme, but tile objections made were not heeded. Two or three years ago an effort was made by Col. Davis, of tile Democrat, to introduce tile system of nominating by delegates chosen by the election districts in proportion to the popular vote east, but this reasonable proposition was overwhelmingly rejected. The rules adopted last year, which have now taken effect, provide that on the fourth Monday of July, which will be the 25th of the month, there shall be a moss conven tion held at Doylestown, at which all those ex pecting to be candidates must have their names placed In nomination. Unless this Is done they cannot obtain a place on the regular ticket. Judges and Inspectors for holding the election in each dis trict are to be appointed by tile county committee, and on the last Saturday (tile 21111) of August the. Democrats of the county are to decide by popular vote who shall be nominated ns the party candi dates. The person receiving the highest number of votes for any (Alice, whether he 11,1511 majollty or not, Is to be declared the nominee. The Judges meet at Doylestown after the primary election to ascertain the result. _No method is provided for making Congressional nominations, and tills will probably be done In the old way of electing bun delegate from each election district. Tile plan now adopted by the Democrats Id that generally known as the "Crawford county system." It has limn In vogue In different parts of the State for some years, with variable results. In Crawford county, where It originated, it has just been abol ished by general consent, as It entirely failed to Meet the 'purposes Intended. It scents a little strange to see It taken up by the Ducks county Democrats just as It Is dropped by the locality where It was originally devised. • 11=11E3331 • TIIE, rumor started some days since that the Pennsylvania Central Railroad Is about to lease the Camden and Amboy and the New Jersey Railroad, Is still circulating freely and does lint appear to be contradicted.

A i‘EYSTERIOUB CASE.—The Beading Eagle says : Au :Whir has Just come to light which points strongly towards a murder, and which Is about being investigated by Detective Lyon, Offi cers Cullen, Graul and Haggerty. The facts of the case, as far as we have been able to learn, are as follows : A young man named Wellington Poll, aged about 121 yeare, left Rending Inst summer and did not again visit his home until the 3d of July lost. He was married to a woman who resides near the cotton factory, In IrisMown, and who it seems has another husband living. On the night of the 6th of July Polrs mother, who lives but a few doors from where. Poll's wife resides, was awakened by the cry of " murder," when she got went down stairs nod opened the front door of her Intone to see what was the matter. Poff's wife, who was in the street, ran down to her mother-in-law and sold that her first husband was killing Toff, with a hotelier tulle near the ice dam. The cries of murder soon ceased, and nn the following morning a sill:111 time book with Poll's name written in it, was found near the lee dam of Knabb Co., shire which time Poff has been missing. The facts of the case will be laid before the Dislrtet Attorney to-day, and the mys tery surrounding the affair will no doubt be thoroughly inquired Into. Cr eott 11YDR01410131A.—In 1819, one Valentine Kettering, of Dauphin county, com municated to the Senate of Pennsylvania a sure reinedy for the bite of any mad animal, which he always found to answer the purpose during a resit ence of fifty years in the United States. He only published it from a motive of humanity. This remedy is a summer plant called chick-weed. Its botanical name is An gelic Phonicea. It must he gathered in June, when in full bloom, dried in the shade, and then pnlvenized. The dose of this.for ri grown person is a small teaspoonful, or in weight a drachm and a scruple at once, taken In water. For children the dose Is the same, yet it must be admistered at three different times. In Germany, thirty grains of this powder are gi ven four times a day, the'first day, then once a day for a whole week : while at the same time the wound is washed out with a decoc tion of the weed, and the powder strewed in it. "Mr. Kettering said that lie In all instan ces administered but one dose, with the most happy results. This is said to be ❑te sante remedy through which the late Dr. William Hoy effected so many cures. PERRECRTION 11Y TILE" CIIIYALROUS."—A letter from West Point says: The negro boy, Jas. W. Sink b, is still " passing through the valley and shadow of death" at the Academy. Day by day he is overcoming the great prefmliee of color, and, by his exemplary conduct is hewing his way to a sure position. Still the curses are loud and deep against him, but they have ceased to by to his face. A few days agO Bea. Upton, the new com mandant, addressed the cadets on dress parade, and told them these personal Insults against their brother cadet, n hose only crime was color, must cease. This seas done after young Smith, lo'ntter despair, had signified his intention of resigning. Gen. Upton sent for him, and said : Young mu, I shall not accept your resigna tion ; you are lire OrrICER IN TILE NATIONAL ARMY ; you have stood a revere examination ; you have passed honorably ; and now you shall not be per secuted Into resigning. lam your friend. Come to me and you shall have Justice." The interview changed young South's inten tions, and the first smile for weeks gladdened his countenance. It was the counsel of one of whom that Christian gentleman, Senator Ames, had written : " My friend and classmate, General Upton, is at west Point, or soon will be. Bre him, and show Lint this letter, and follow any advice lie may give you. Ile In a true, noble man, who will fully ap preciate your position and sympathize with you. Keep a brave heart and all will be well." THE NEW DEPOT AT MAUCH CHUNK.—The new depot of the Lehigh Valley Railroad which is being put up on the opposite side of the river from the Mansion House will be completed In about six weeks. The contractor expects to be ready for the plasterers in three weeks. The new building, will lie large and commodious, and with Its neat French rooLwill present a much more elegant ap pearance than,the tumble-down old one we have so long been accustomed to see. A platform will extend on all four stiles of the depot, which will be a convenience and hu mooniest. The follow ing Is the arrangements of the offices and rooms : On the north end of the building will be the ticket office, In the centre. The gentleman's room is on the east side of the building 17x23 feet In size. Opposite on the west side Is the ladies room which Is of the same dimensions. Next to these will be found the baggage room 10x24. The Freight of fice is 16x24 feet and nil the business of the freight department will be done hi it. The freight room is at the south end of the depot. It is much larger than the old one being 24x50 In nine. 'There will he wash-rooms and all other modern conveniences for the'comfort of passengers. The bridge will be 11 if ished about the lime the depot is Completed. The pier Is already up and Is placed a little east I of the position of the old one. It will tie some what higher from the water, and consequently the hridge will not be In so much danger at the ; time of a flood as formerly.

TIIE Excut.tuott Thrt.tes.— We Wended the usual meeting of tile Excelsior Rifles last evening, and were very much gratified to see the profi ciency they have attained under the instruction of Capt. A. J. Laubaeli. There were between thirty and forty out of the company of slyly-eight members present. Armed with their rifles they went through the drill with a precision that must have been extremely gratifying to all concerned. The armory of the company, over the stcre of Messrs. Schreiber Bro.'s, Is exceedingly well adapted for the purpose of drill, and is put to good use every Tuesday and Friday evening. Every member of the eompany seems to be anxious th❑t the Excelsior Rifles shall be well drilled and disciplined, and to that end gives time and trouble to become proficient in the different movements. The uniforms ere now being mule at the store of Messrs. Hosts & Stettler, and in a few weeks we may expect to see the company take a "march" in their new uniforms.

Frelinghuysen, just nomi nated as Minister te , England, represents an old and historic family. Ilis grandfather, Frederic, was a delegate from New Jersey to the Continental Congress, and In 1876 joined the. Revolutionary forces. He served with distinction as the Captain ofa volunteer corps of artillery at the battles of Mammouth and Trenton. Ile was promoted to the Colonel, and served during the remainder of the war. In 1807 he was admitted to the bar, and, be came eminent as an eloquent aevocate. Du ring the war with Great Britain, in 1812-14, he raised and commanded a company of vol unteers. In 1818 was elected Attorner-Gen.. eral of New Jersey.by a Legislature opposed to him in politics. and held the post till 1826 when he was chosen United States Senator. In the Senate Mr. Frelinghuysen acted with . the. Whig party. He exerted himself on the part of the Indians ; supported Mr. Clay's re solution for a National fast in the season of the cholera ; spoko in favor of the extension of the Pension system, and ,acted with Mr. Clay upon the question of the Tariff and the 'Compromise act of 1832. In May, 1844, the Whig National Convention at Baltimore nominated him for Vlce-President and Hen ry Clay for President. 'They received 105 electoral votes, while their successful compe titors, James K. Polk and George Dallas re ,ceived 17,0 votes. It is the nephew and adopted son .of this Mr. Prelingimysen who is to be our Ministe to England. Ile came to the bar In 1836, first entered public life as a delegate to the Peace Congress of 1861. Ile there displayed remarkable ability, and was soon afterward made Attorney-General of New Jersey, the term of office whereof is five years. Besides executing the duties of this position ably and satisfactorily, he rendered efficient service to the Republican party In each political cam paign by' his vigorous and felicitlous oratory. In 1860, Gov. Ward designated hint to the United States Senate, to succeed Senator Wright, deceased, and the subsequent Legis lure elected him for the unexpired term of of three years. In the Senate Mr. Freling• Imysen sustained his party in its arduous con flict with President Johnson, and was chosen to reply to the last annual .message sent by bins to Congress. lle served on the Commit ! tees on Naval Affairs, the Judiciary, and Claims, and was much . esteemed by his fel. low-Senators. Senator 'Stockton succeeded Mr. Frelinghuysen in the Senate in 1865, and since then lie has been engaged in profession al duties at Newark. , WIFE BEATER.—Louis Koons, was brought before the mayor yesterday, charged with assaulting his wife, and Is held in $3OO bail to appear at the next term of Court. OUR BULLETIN BOARD.—The Bulletin Board in front of the Chronicle office, is sur rounded every evening to see the latest news from the seat of War in Europe. A LARGE Pre Nrc PARTY.—Quito a large party of Pic-nle-inns from Jereey City, were coley leg the lovely scenery and the first-class accom modations nt the Fountain House yesterday. To FRUIT PRESERVERS.— You will find at Kramer's Corner Store a full line of Glass Fruit Jars, In pints, quarts, and half gallons, and of the two best makes In the market, Selling at a small advance. Please examine our Jars before pur chasing. No trouble to show them. LOCALS ARE ScAltce.—As we regretfully write the sentence a vision comes before our mind of days past when there were locals we refrahwd from utilizing. rFisky, fat and obstinate comes up the vision of the " little slip of a pig" that ran up. and down Hamilton street the other day with the owner and a half a hundred little boys after it. Remorsefully we remember we never told how Fs Id owner forgot to pay the promised twenty-live rents to the boy who caught It. Ah ! with what self re proach do we think that the tremendous conflict at the Allen House was never recorded and that the world never knew •of the General's doughty deeds and their martyr-like reception by the other malcontent. Stuckert's donkey ran up and down Hamilton street sonic time ago and we failed to tell the world of it and how it kicked and. Jumped when the boys try to catch It. Arrests, accidents and offences plentiful in the days of Sore, have been forgotten, and now rise up in Judgment against us for there Is nothing of the kind now. It Is too hot to be offensive or accidental. In this kiwi of weather nuisances flourish. There Is the church clock, with one face showing too minutes fasterthan the other—that's nuisance. Then there is the necessity for prospecting all round the city for a cool placethat's it nuisance. Then there's the lliesthat's any number of nui sances. Then there's the general dont-care-ish nese of everything and the absence of local news —that's two nuisances. Then there's the Jordan Bridge that's—we are powerless In the present staid of the weather to say what that Is or to Continue the list. ALL THE WAY t•itost Dr xm.—The name and fame of the Register is far reaching. This week we have in our columns a real estate sale all the way from Virginia.. And then, too, our advertising columns show that many of the business men of this eiy, as well as farmers and others throughout the County, appreciate the value of using the Register as a medinth through which to inform the public of the business In which they are engaged. what they have to sell, and where they may be found by those desiring to make purchases. The Register has a larger circulation than any English paper published in the Lehigh Val. ley, yet there are some few persons engaged in business in this city who have not yet put in an appearance In its columns. To such its are influenced by political prejudices we extend our commiseration. The leading business 'muses of the city Imre availed themselves of the advantages of our large circulation, and we advise those of our patrons who wish to purchase, to look through our columns and find the names, and go to the stores of those who invite them.

Men of re fined 'Mild and delicate susceptibilities shrink from the meanness and the &grin/alio/tor poverty ; and they have a right to shrink from them. The in stiact of self-preservation, paternal love and con jugal affection all combine to keep them away. Let our ministerial laborers receive the hire of which they are worthy. Then we shall hear them preach." With what pathetic and feeling strains of elo quence might many a tardily and scantily paid country parson discourse upon the above quota tion from an editorial in your REGMCK a few 'eelts,ago. Though the wrlier of this, dwelling atnougnt . rompt, liberal, generous parishioners, prefers us is text. The line, hare fallen unto lute in plewittill placeß." It Is omltc a mystery how some ministry. , man age to live, They have no visible means of sup port that are adequate to their visible expenditures; they have no wealthy relatives who can eke out the scanty salary; they receive no dividends from private sources of investment; and yet they are clothed as the lilies of the field are, and fed us well as Elijah was, though the ravens do not Ming them food. Perhaps they live a "life of trust," like George Muller perhaps their homes, if opened, would disclose the hard struggle with real want, which modesty shrouds in mystery. We know how some other ministers Ilyc. We have heard of a congregation that increased the 8111Ilry of the pastor as I:16i, alit! In proportion as the currency depreciated, so that what was always needed could be always procured. We have been glad to hear of another congregation that increased the pastor's salary, and laid in his coal and win ter provisions, and gave him clothing and presents of money, and never ceased lu giving, although they did not like him personally. They Vit'lreli him as the Lord's servant, and what they gave they gave cheerfully, as to their _Mister. We know of vuother parish, where for twenty yearn Jt never occurred to the people that their pastor, a modest, faithful man, needed more to support him In a 'mauler appropriate to his posi llnn than the moderate salary paid him. With no lack of attachment for their undershepherd, there was a strange forgetfulness of the duty of fully, abundantly supporting him. There Is a clergyman now living In a communi ty where he has preached for more than fifty years, and the congregation la hirge and rich. The salary that was not sure than sufficient half a century ago, Is ; and for fifteen or eighteen years at least, this venerable man has preached the gospel to his people, while his sons paid the Most of his expenses. There Is another, a young man, who has labored with all his might, gathered a congregation, built a church, and reared a family In a city: Ilalf of his salary pays the rent of his house. This con gregation love 1,110, appreciate his labors, send him baskets of flowers nod elegant pieces of fancy work, but they never imagine that he has not been able to buy new books for years, and that he is scanted for the ordinary necessaries of middle-class But time would fail to tell of such ravening wolyes as starvation, debt, poverty, misery, which Bond:times stalk into the sacred ohmic of the pious, humble, laborious back•country minister. Is there not much fault ofttimeS On the part of ! congregations with reference to this important I matter of promptly paying and liberally support lug the man of God who faithfully ministers unto them In holy things Yet Is there not sometimes some fault on the part of the paStor I Ile feels very delicate about , making his wants known, and so long ns he can manage to live and soiree In silence he will do it.

If an employee In a ballet or on a railroad may ask for an Increase of wages, surely the laborer of Christ Is worthy of Ida hire, and should not be ashamed to ash for It. lint if ministers will not do It, If they are too sea= sitlve, let the people take the matter In hand. It would do good to the Church , at large, if there were a thorough Investigation In this matter, and If It could be exhibited how pastors were paid, and what proportion their salaries bore to the amount necessary for u comfortable support . , we think there would be an ass nkeulug to Christian duty, a practical awakenlng,henelielal not alone to poor paid parsons, but to Gm congregations themselves.
