CITY TAX.—To estimate the importance of
the City of Allentown commercially, one has
but to give attention to the amount paid for
taxes week after week. Mr. Jonnthan•-Rei

SIXTH S'l'REE.T.—That work of macadamiz

It is completed, is going rapidly forward in
Sixth street. As soon as the work is happily
finished, we presume the grumbling, which is
often heard now, will subside, and the road
will settle down into a first-class article.
CURD SETTING.—The work goes bravely on
and the various Improvements of Allentown will
in a few weeks show for themselves. The different
property holders on Hamilton street who have
not already commenced have been notified by the
Mayor to attend to the business of curb setting
within thirty days and when the business Is fairly

the city which keeps our streets alive with the

Other animals have not the ability to act in a sim
ilar manner, and therefore swiss naturally. When
a man falls into deep water in any way he pleases,
his head will rise so high as to allow hiss free lib
erty to breathe, and If he will use his legs as if in
the art of walking, (or rather walking upstairs),
his shoulders will rise above water, so that he may
use less exertion with his hands, or apply them to
some other purpose. These plain directions may
be found highly advantageous in prt,crving

tune, made live runs, which showed some good
playing on the part of the Allentown boys and
raised them in the estimation of the strangers, as
bets had been freely offered that the Easton boys
would beat them forty runs. The Frani:Rim
struck boldly, but were only allowed to make one
rite. The playing of the Neptunes in the held
showed that their victory would be easy, but no
bets were offered on their side after this inning.
The second inning showed better playing on tile
part of the Franklin, their adem'saries haring
their rani cat down to two, lint the Neptunes re
turned the compliment by skunking the Frank
lins.
The third inning, through the mis-Judgment of
the umpire, gave the Neptunes live runs and the
Franklins were only able to score one.
The fourth, fifth and sixth innings were hotly
contested and showed good plaing on both sides,
as only four runs were scored on either side in
these innings. •
In the seventh Jutting, the Neps, through called
bulls and mitt-Judgments, scored lire runs, while
the Frani:llns by safe batting tied them.' The
game now stood 21 to 11.
lo the eighth Inning the prettiest play of the
game was made by the Frankllus. The Neps
had already made four rims, with only one out.
owing. to the remarkable ruling of the umpire,
andlney had three men on Uses when the batter
struck to short, who quirk as lightning sent the
ball to second.
The Neps made one more run, however, when
the ball was thrown home and the catcher put
another :Ilan out who attempted to steal home.
The ninth Inning elicited no Interest from the
spectators, and was characterized by the same
unreasonable decisions from the umpire, the :oast
outrageous of which wasdeelaring a foul bail a fair
one. It was so palpably " foul" that the Frank
lies were totally unprepared for .the decision and
the Neps made several runs on it.

THE CITY or ALLENTowN.—Any citizen
of Allentown who during the Summer months
may tour a holiday and travel In or out of the State
cannot if he would readily forget the city to which
he belongs. At almost any depot of importance
on this vast continent he will see, to gladden his
• ey4s :Ind remind him of the long double lines of
shining track which stretch between hint and his
home, the, to him, magical word "Allentown,"
"The Allentown Route," via "Allentown" &c.
Thus Allentown is talked about and brought
I prominently before many people wlto never see it.
Many lupines as to what kind of place Allen
' town is, and what kind of people live there, are
!node by hundreds of people daily, and it is fortu
nate for us that the continually increasing num
! her of people who visit this city are able to, and
do corry.away with them such a good impression
of the thrift, enterprise and business qualifications
of our people and the beautiful situation of the
place of their abode. Our public buildings are un
surpassed for the beauty and solidity of thcir archi
tectural work and the perfection of their Interior
arrangements, and are spoken of with pride
throughout the State. Our private residences and
stores are up to all the. requirements of the day in
appearance and convenience and are continually
being improved and added to. Our hotels are giv
ing Allentown such a reputation amongst all
classes,of traveling men that many who are de•
mined in neighboring towns and cities mull Sat.
Imlay, are induced to conic to Allentown to spend
the Sabbath.
No small amount of credit Is due to the energy
and enterprise of the men of business who have
'nought this to pass, while the improvements now
liklngiplace hi the grading of streets, the cree -
thin of buildings, etc:, point with unmistakeable
, diAinctuess to the fact that we in our day are alive
to the importance of our position, and able and
willing to meet its requirements. But what we
I want particularly Is inure local pride amongst oily
I people. A pride that shall Oct only be shown in
their adoption of the best means for our improve
'bent In all respects, but also in the open, out-
I spoken, earnest commendation of our own people,
our own stores, our own hotels, our own public
schools, our own Sunday schools, our own Fire
department, our own bands, our own public speak

least among live hundred other things ct whlek
we

We arc more ready to often go Into raptures
over the beautiful stores, and the efficient Fire
department, and the first-class hotels, and the
Public schools, he., of other places, than we are
to recognize the merit that is our own, and that
needs recognition and encouragement for our own
sakes. Strangers have to speak of these things
for us in most eases. We are so wretchedly modest
not to say unjust and ungenerms, that while we
often talk of the immense circulation of Philadel
phia and New York papers very few of out owe
people know that between 20,000 and 110,000 news
papers newspapers go out. of Allentown every
week. We are so blind to the merit that Is here
in our midst that we will pay $lOO or more for
some 'man from abroad to come and talk to our
people on a subject which some one in his audi
ence will he competent to teach him. Leta be
told to the the credit of our Sunday-school Assoc'.
don that they have discontinued to Ignore the
ability and earnestness of oar own people and•no
longer fetch their talkers from abroad. At the last
meeting our own workers did the talking and did
It effectually. It would be well Your committees
political would follow this example and recog
nize the fact that we have men here as competent
tea talk to our pimple, and more competent
to Interest them than any of those political stars
of the third magnitude with which they arc wont,

EASTON NEWSPAPER ENTERPRIS::.—The
Easton Express created a great sensation In that
borough on last Wednesday afternoon by publish
ing a lengthy dispatch giving a very minute ac
count of a battle near Metz. The dispatch said
It was "the first statement we have of the battle.''
Yesterday afternoon the Free Press', of the saute
place, published the dispatch above referred to
side by side with a dispatch giving the first par
ticulars of the battle of Pittsburg Landing, as it
appeared In the Y. P. Tin 117 of April 1101,18112.
The only difference appeared to he in the altera
tions of "our forces" in Prussian forces, and of
the Rebels to the French. It is not made clear
who is the author of the Imposition, bat the pub
lication of it by the Express, we are afraid,will do
that journal much harm.

A SWIN»LE.—Somp time ngo n "canvasser"
solicited the citizens of Allentown, Easton and
!client, to solocribe for a directory of tlaoe
places, and gave a most glowing description of the
completeness, itze., of the Intended wort:. Allen
town was, to be fully set forth in all Its perfection.
Subscribers were to have their !talkies set forth In
bold type, correctness was to he one of Its main
features, &c., &e.
The hook Is here. The price was to have been
o dollars. We find Il to he entitled "Easton
-rectory," and that Allentown Is merely CaSll
r6,',76 27
ntentione d at the end of the wort: and the
names of the subscribers lint displayed as proinkil.
\Ve were hurried by press of Inisinms and only had
hue to notice this at it glance. The gentleman
who employs his !Maitre moments In collecting
mono• Mr this ,nis•i)ircctory, mentioned that he
would take a dollar and a half. We gave him the
tummy, upon which he disappeared and telling the
folks next door (hut we had highty recommended File
dicrctory, offered It for a dollar, to them. They
did not close with this very liberal offer and were
wise. The hook, as far as Allentown is concerned,
is simply worthless.
B et hl e h e m Is disposed of in live leaves. To call
the book a directory of that pine , woald be an In
sult to every one who lives there.
The projectors of this "Directory," iu canvas
sing, called it a directory of Allentown and Beth
larm, but in printing the work they have not had
the Impudence to hit so. of its worth us a direc
tory of Easton, we ore not fu a position to judge,
hut if the numbers, &v., of thedilferent houses arc
given as accurately ns those few that are
(toned in Allentown, it is about on a par with
the others.
We would suggest to our readers that th. y will
do well to closely examine this article, even it ills
offered at all "alarming sacrifice."

that no so-called ultehtlon or amendments of the

a. Revolved, That we denounce the provisions of

by It with a power too great and dangerous to l'e
endured with patience by a free people, a power
Avhieh should either remain entirely latent, or be
exercised with the utmost prudence If those who
exercise it, would avoid the most dangerous cons

his straight forward course '
in opposing and de- !

FAO:MS Of the Republican party to plunder the
Government and oppress the people, he has won
for himself not only the confidence of his immedi
ate constituency, but also that of the entire party
of the State.
8. Resolved, That we tender the thanks of the
Democntey of this County to those members of
the State Legislature, who by their votes and In
fluence, opposed the Bill to deplete the Sinking
Fund of the State for the benefit of a Railroad
Corporation, stud that by so doing they have
evinced a disposition to disehargo their official du
ties %vitt' fidelity and to the best interests of the
people.
