Ile reads, not for the sake of knowing anything, but for the sake of being a gentleman. Soon his father breaks down ; and he, when he Is about tWenty five years old, finds himself a poor man's son, and dependent on his own exertions. And he says to himself: "What shall I, do for a livitng 7" Ile asks his feet, and his feet say, " I do lot known' lie asks hie hands and they say " I do not know." Ho asks his head, and It says, "I never learnt anything about how to get a living." Could any thing be more useless than such a person I Can there be anything, more pitiable than such his tories 7 And yet they are happening every day. 31011LENTIE110 COLLEOE.—This institution is under the fostering care of the. Evangelical Lutheran Minlsterlutn of Pennsylvania and ad jaCent States. The attendance, at present is, seniors, 14 ; juniors, 12 ; sophomores, 17 ; freshmen, 17 ; and 88 proparhtorians, making total attendance of 118. The students have organized three secret fraternities, Phi Gamma Delta, Epsilon Deutron chapter; Chi Phi,• Beta chapter ; and Upsilon Beta, Psi chapter. The latter is quite a new order, having but four chapters. In addition to these organiza tions, there are two literary societies, known as the Euterpean, and Sophronian, both of which have splendidly furnished halls, and In creasing libraries. Tim Practical Farmer, condUcted by Pas chall Morris, contains in its October number nu earnest and appropriate tribute to the memory of Adrian Cornell. It says :—Adrian Cornell was one of the best farmers of Eas tern Pennsylvania ; a man of remarkably close and accurate observation, self.nule, and more apt to draw his own conclusions and impress his convictions on, rather than to be led by others. His judgment was clear, and his advice :much sought for in private and public business. To agriculture lie was es. pecially devoted, and eVer ready and on the watch for whateyer was calculated to Improve lb. Wo should say the most prominent trait of his character was oim, or force. Ills ener gies appeared to us untiring, and whatever he undertook to do, he was apt to complete and finish." Tun LficTunu BEABON.—The lecture seas on this year le opening with a fine array of talent, of every description. Science, history, Invention, art, reform and political: economy have their rep resentatives on the platform, and speaking of every rank, sex and color arc ready to cater to the public taste. The tickets of 'admittance are n general rule, set at so low a figure as to come within the reach of all citizens who interest them selves In such matters. With these opportunities why may not the Intelligence of the masses be kept up to a healthy standard? There Is nothing to hinder it, except that public taste becomes vitiated, by choosing too light a diet. There Is sometimes a tendency to prefer the sensational and frivolous to the substantial and wholesome mental foal. While It is not to be urged that nothing of an amusing character should be In dulged in when seeking for recreation, humorand wit are essential elements in the programme of every course of lectures delivered. These should be Introduced as the dessert after the substantial meal Itself. Public taste should be so cultivated as to desire something more than mere amuse ment, and the audience room should he as well filled to listen to a polished lecture as to witness the performonee of a burlesque troupe. BETnr.unntr.—A correspondent of the Ph ii adelphla Star writes thus of Bethleheuf:—" Beth lehem lies at•thejunetion of Monocacy creek and the Lehigh river. Including all the suburbs on both sides of the river, it contains about 10,000 I nhabitants. It Is a handsome old town, and looks particularly Inviting to one used 'to our level streets, as the hills and valleys present a pleasing variety. The trade of the place is quite lively, and there are many handsome stores. "The principal interest of Bethlehem arises from its Moravian associations. This church early settled here, and to this day retains Its strong hold upon the community. While the !domains have lost some of their old customs, they still retain suflielent to attract the attention of those not fa miliar with them. Their church is a plain but handsome gray edifice with terraced entrance: It Is quite large, and frescoed plainly in high colors Inside. Tho choir contains some splendid singers. The love of music distinguishes the people here. On special occasions the female member's of the choir wear caps of peculiar styles and different ornaments. The music used on Easter, Chistmas and p3rticular festivals Is very grand and impos- Jug." IRON Oim.—On the lot of Mr. Eden Sherrer, in 'William township, Northampton county, shout one and a half miles from this place, Iron ore WM discovered some time during last mouth. About seven tons-of ore were taken from the mine In slaking the shaft to the diatonee of about seveoty feet, and the vein of ore In thirty feet deep. POST No. 214, G. A.

IMPORTANT TO HEAL ESTATE OWNERS.— The Laud °Meer at Harrisburg is now doing a good service to the owners of real estate, in insi.t. lug that all such shall have thelr titles. Thereby the Slate is benelitted and the property owner is saved costly litigation. There is !natty a prosper ous; thrifty, and honest farmer living to-day on land which he confidently believes he owns. to which he has the title papers all regularly made out and recorded, but when he comes to trace the record back to the source of all title t0..1n4,1 in this State, he discovers with dismay that there never was a patent taken out for his farm ; that where It has been patented, the fees we're never fully paid up, so that there are defects in his title which, if pushed at any time, wpuld possible de prive him of his homestead. Ample notice has boon glven to parties to coin,: Zlllareincity this defect and negligence. .'s large number of holders' of land'have already done it, but litany have thus far treated the matter with indillcrenee, from which they are to be aroused by suits which will be brought by the Slate, the result of which may be very disastrous, :IS the costs of course will be, very heavy. Let every property holder see that he has a patent for his land, and that all fees and costs of such patented land are fully paid.

The 1111111iplleati011 of railroad eamwetlials, and the general dissemination of In hirtnation throughout the county have inspired a taste for a higher class of entertainments, corn' .toining utility and improvement o with pleasure. This sentiment has led to the formation of the Key,tone Agricultural Society, an institution which, hi thlicionsly conducted, toast result In at zeal for improvement in every branch of the occu pation of :in agriculturist. The Idea of such an as soviation was more immediately suggested by the success of an exhibition held in August ltinn, muter the auspice, of the Sundaysehool of the I.lltherall Church, for the lament of its library. Thin was held in a temporary frame wigwam Mille vicinity of the church, anal besides the ordinary stock of articles usually found at church fairs, there was a number of other articles placed there for exhlbi r Don merely, to lend additional attraction to the occasion, such as a variety of old relics, curiosities :md specimens of 'handiwork . contributed by the citizens of the surrounding country, at (lie Invita tion of the'pcsSiMs who had Colitrul of (he ninon.

Dickinson on Joan d'Arc Large 1 Appreciative Ala(Hence Our citizens are indebted to the public spirit and energy of our lecture committee for two lec tures from distinguished personages delivered last spring, and they are now ito legs indebted to the same committee for securing the brilliant and do- quest Miss Dickinson who appeared at the Court House Friday evening. The house was crowded at an early hour with the Intelligence of our city. The lecture was announced to commence at eight o'clock, but through some cause her appearance was delayed, much to the disappointment of the audience, until twenty minutes past eight o'clock, when she entered the bar accompanied by Mr. T. F. Emmet's, who Introduced her as Miss Olive Logan. After much laughter and considerable speculation as to whether the error was an inten tional outs, Mr. Emtnens corrected his mistake by introducing Miss Dickinson. Among the names, said she, which lisle shall consign to elm city, there is none that is more absolutely stamped with Idlers of gold than that ofJoun of Are, who ended strife and won victory for the France that had brought untold misery upon Itself by Illegally ex cluding a woman from the throne. Joan was born is Domretny, a little village of Lorraine, which then, as now, was swept by contending armies. Her father wits a poor but • independent farmer, whose sheep she tended. Tler mother was a good and pious woman, who taught Jenny needlework. So good a horsewoman was the future heroine that she often carried away the prize at the village tournaments. Friends and foe testify that she was gentle and benevolent. She would take the bread and the cup Isom her own lips to give to a beggar at the door. She %vas devoted to religions exercises, and might often he fohnd prostrate be fore altars and shrines. Iler priest said she Was the only one in the village who never missed eon fesslon, and the only one who never had anything to confess. She was so fond of bells that she gave the ringer of her slender store to prolong his chimes. While her companions played, she wan dered under the free sky in silent meditation, alai while they laughed she prayed. From her father's house she could see the great forests of the Vosges, through which she doubtless often strayed and gathered vague inspiration from the solemn undertone of the trees. Dontremy stood at the crossing of two great roads, }vhere troops, of travelers passed, and the tales they told of France grew sadder and sadder as the years passed by. This girl was intensely loyal.. Her patriotism was part of her religion. See her little face as she listens to these tales, and mark th e shadow of an awful hope gathering upon it as she hears the proverb that since France hail been lust through a WOIO:01, it should be restored through a girl of the marshes of Lorraine. Solitude, and nature, and prayer, and faith fed this hope. So Jenny's childhood went on—so Frr.oee staggered to Its doom. She adored France as she adored God, and that feeling beat down all things small and mean and basis in her. In a vision, she tells us, St. Michael appeared and told her God lent chosen her to crown the King, Charles VII., and drive out the armies of the victorious English. Other visions followed. Either these were facts or they were the results of imagination. Whoever admits them as facts writes himself (lowan devout believer in modern spiritualism. Admit them to he the work of imaginations and you make her• the clearest thinker, the bravest soldier, the wisest statesman, and the ablest general of her time. I believe they were the reflections of her own soul. Jenny had a bad time at home, and an uncle who loved her took her 10 his own house, and then 'went tis her embassador to the Governor to say that has niece was sent by God to raise the slee, of Orleans and crown the King. Fancy such a message brought to Lincoln ! he Governor de rides both uncle and oiece, but the girl sways mightily with the people of the village by her pas sionate love fur France. She has lovers, too,and Ithally she tells one of them her vision, and says, • 1 No power can bring help to this unhappy King, but I alone." And the young man and an old weather.licaten knight clasp hands and vow to bring her to him.. But meanwhile the king has hoard or liar 14110gotidd cruses 104 kaplC:ild hostile territory and eight bridgeless rivers, and the poor court makes itself splendid to receive this peasant girl. After 'Melt questioning she is judged to be sent of God. The command Is given to her, with attendant knights, and a sword, and a banner stamped with the lilies of France. Iler army is 6,000 ruffians. She goes among them, the embodiment of France, anti, by her faith and her genius, looking them crusaders. All vileness is swept out, and the camp bcconies a holy place. She otters Orleans on a black charger, and clad In snowy armor, her face blazing with hope and loyalty ;mil inspiration. The great moot in the WWII believed In the woman as great men always have done. But the little etc❑ thought to steal the fruits of Jenny's genius by leading her soldiers slying against the enemy. They fall, and she rallies the dispirited French and leads them to victory. The next day Is the Fe OVA of the Ascension, and Jenny goes to pray. Again the little generals rush out, and fail, and again Jenny files to the front and snatches victory from defeat. I lee plan of campaign was to light. The next morning, in defiance of the generals and the coun cil, she takes the field. The, governor will not Open the gam. EmEl her soldiers beat IL down.— They attack one cf the English towers, and fight in vain from 7 till noon. In desperation Jenny seizes a holder and mounts the wall. An arrow strikes her shoulder, and site falls into the trench. The woman weeps with pain ; but the heroine tears out the arrow with her own hand. The troops rest and cat, and Jenny prays. Then they once noire attack tho English, who look with ter ror on this del they had. thought. slain. Thous ands sink in death, the bridge between the towers falls into the river, the second tower 15 taken, and everything Is within the grasp of the French.— The next day is Sunday, and Jenny will not light, but holds that chafing anon still while the de feated English steal away. All this has been thole in seven. days, and the eighth they rejoice. Then this girl, with the splendor of genius and the sublimity of COllllllOll sense combined, makes Charles consent to 'be crowned. To open the waY to Itheluis she cal, lures town after town, defeats the Englii , h in the open field, stud routs the last remnants of the magnificent force sent to conquer France. Then the King Is crowned, and that day is the crown of Jenny's life. All that human grandeur has to 'Pend upon a human being Is spent upon this slinple girl at Rheims. And then, her work com plettd, she desired to retort, bionic and tend her sheep once more. The King and the Court over rule her, Itt.tl she lights on. But she to incessant ly in tears and at prayer. Envy and hate sur round her, anti she forsees her doom. She goes to save Compiegne, hut, in assault, the treacherous Governor rot oil' her retreat lly raising it draw bridge, and she falls Into the power of her ene mies. The Duke of Burgundy' sells her to the English, and she In lodged lit Rouen. A whole year has Passed since her capture. Iler king, her army, her people have deserted her. She must have thought that even God hind turned away Ills face. She Is alone utterly. Alone has Its synonym— death. She hears the happy Easter hells and the People singing in the streets. tier heart breaks! And then the pink of chivalry. Warwick; will have her life saved, for the King of England has deter mined that she must die a bitter death. They place tier on a seaffild and any, "Recant, or be burned." She stands Mn, but at last she affixes her mark to sin lines, promising to let her hair grow and 'to wear armor• no niece. Then they take away her dress and leave her only , armor, and she, with naught else to cover her Innocence, Inas it•on and death with It. They Instantly place her In a cart and she rides to the scaffold through bristling lines of ,soldiery and yelling multitudes clamoring for her life.— At the stake are her judges, her murderers, and they preach a Hermon accusing tier or every crime. She Is silent, but they speak against her. king, and she cries with deathless loyalty, at You accuse the noblest gentleman In Christendom." Then she mounts the .scalrohl. Around her arc the shouting, faithless multitudes. Iler last thought is for France. Then the fagots are heaped—the names are lighted. " hold before me the cross," she says to the poor priest, her only friend. Noth ing Is heard but the crackling flame and broken whispers of prayer. At the last a mighty and triumphant voice cries the name of the Master she serves. The head drops -forward on her breast. She has fought the good light; she has Iln.shed her course ; site has kept the faith. Even through fiery martyrdom she has won an Immor, tat crown. For us, let us keep her In recollection with that remembrance which Is more than flame. [Applause.] WN, WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 19 1870.

AMONG the points of interest visited by Miss Aunt). Dickinson, last Saturday, was our county prison. She visits all the prisons on her lecturing tour this season with the view of obtaining such information as shall enable her to prepare a lec ture on prison reform. PUBLIC LiCTURE.—The reserved seats for the lecture by Edward Carswell, Esq., on Friday evening next, are rapidly being taken up. Parties desiring scats would do well to select them nt once, and thus secure 0 more preferable choice. Call nt the store of M. J. Kramer, corner of 7th and llnmilton streets. 1'AR11101!:8 appear ,to turn everything upside down. They have even disarranged the manner of wearing dresses and underskirts. It Is no un usual thing to see a lady, now-a-days, put her frock on the Inside and her white skirt on the out side. It Is it singular freak, especially , when it is esteemed vulgar for a mutt to appear In his shirt Sleeves. DEPARTMENT.—The following order Ims been Issued by the Chief Engineer:— I. The engine and hose companies will muffle lie bells on their hose carriages, and also, not dow the whistles of their steam engines In n 21.11111- ng from a lire or.an alarm of fire. 11. All racing or'shouting on returning from a fire or an alarm of fire, Is strictly forbidden. 111. The Assistant Engineers of the difierent companies will see that the above orders are en. forced. llnucc•rtcc LETTERS.-1t is argued that a much better plan of directing letters than that in general use would be to reverse the order; that is to place the State first, the county next, the town next, then the street and the number, and, final ly, the name. This method, it Is stated, classifies the direction of n letter In the . way In which. the post office clerks sort out the 111:IESCS of correspon- deuce placed before them, but it Is believed that a bold, plain direction, with the 0101np on the right hand upper corner, Would be of sullicient assis tance to Kcure the safe transmission of letters. THAT • TEMPERANCE TICK ET. —Tile vote polled for the Temperance candidate for Congress In Montgomery county amounted to t.)2. These all belonged to Mr. Oliver. The tichet was strong est in Upper Providence, where it polled 17 votes. Its total strength In . Norristown was 9, showing conclusively that it was supported only by a few hot headed men who do the cause more harm than good, and that the true friends of that cause did not give their aid to this piece of folly. We do ant believe the.report that the men who Inaugu rated the movement were in the employ of the Democracy. LEHIGH' COAT, A'r THE PARIS Ex vosmoN the yearlB67 Mr. John Leisenring, the Su perintendent al the Lehigh (Wel and Navigation Company, sent to the Paris Exposition a large ccc of coal, weighing between four six thousand pounti:L. IL was mined at No. 2 Mine, Summit Hill, and was a magnificent specimen of Anthracite. Nothing was heard front the coal until the visit of Gov. Geary to Mauch Chunk, some weeks ago, whew one of the officers of the company mentioned the fact above stated. The Governor Immediately remembered that he had received a a medal and diploma from the Exposi- tion for apiece of coal, but he could never find out who sent It to Paris. The diploma Is framed In gilt and bangs hr the Executive Chamber, Har risburg.

AcctoEsrs.—Accident after accit!ent, oc curs, and many are the repetitious of the same cause—carelessness—and often by the same indi viduals, who lay the blame to sonic evil-guiding star than to its true cause. There is a thinight lessness abo6t some people that never seems to improve, and they carry it out In all their actions, and often to the injury of others. In driving, for instance, some fail to take the accessary precau tions in crossing streets, where those on foot are hurrying along, and pellestrians, In their turn, rush heiiiliong 11111011;4 nltliCr . in curring the risk of beiag knocked down than to watt a few seconds for a more favoroble time.

This Is also the case in winter, when ice or sleet Is on the pavements.

AUTWIN.—What a prolific Moine the sea sons have always been, and how much is said and sung of their beauties from the finished anti ex quisite verses of the poet down to the crude at tempt of the school boy's composition, and yet no one Is weary of the subject, and each change In the year brings with It fresh admiration and new Ideas. Now Autumn again claims tribute to her beauty, and surely she is worthy of admiration and even bears oil' the prize for many of herohArms. Fore most collies the Fall atmosphere, a better tonic than ever man devised, giving a health . vigor ;Ind glow that puts iron and bitters to shame; making, the active; business man feel as though he could perform Herculean labors stud enjoy it. at that; causing the feeble to creep out Into the pure, health giving sir and regain the strength lost hi the sum mer ; and the: aged,• It able for nothing else, to drag the old arm chair out on the porch and there bask hi the bright sunshine of Indian slimmer. Then comes the industry of Fall, In which the far mer is an active participant and must be busy with his corn, pumpkins, ngpies , whiter wood,d,:c. BM this Is not the trying toll of July and August days, and is surrounded by a color and cheer that beautifies and lightens it. The good housekeeper ton, must be stirring; she must see that the ap ples are pared,—which often gives rise to a frolic —the pantry shelves must be lined with preserves and pickles, the stoves brought out and polished, the winter clothes unpacked and aired, her favor,.

AnvEltroiNo AGEt:ru:s.—One of the most reliable establishments of this character, that of John Hooper .k*. Co., of New York, whose name has long . been the synonym for integrity and financial responsibility, has Just been merged with the younger but no less favorably known house of G. I'. Rowell d: Co. The success of the last named firm has been something unparalleled In the nese. Their American Newspaper Directory which is conceded by all persons competent to pass Judg ment upon such a work, to be the most complete volume of Its character ever Issued In this or any other country,may be found on the rhelves of every prominent advertiser. Thin thin has for some years been conceded to be the leading establishment of its kind In Ameri ca. And the absorption of J. Hooper C Co:, one of the few others which could with Justice be called their rivals, placed thorn In a position far In ad vance anti competitors. More than live thousand Aniericau Periodicals are received regularly and kept on file' at their. offices which are located In the New York Times Building, Nos. 40 rt, 41 Park Row, and we are In formed that their corps'of assistants out-number the combined force . of any four similar establish ments now In existence.. • Puns°lve desiring to purchase real estate are directed to the long list of properties advertised in another column by Wittman kt: Lbisenring. POPULATION OF HEADING.—The census enumerators for Reading Lave finished their labors and made up their reports. The following figures, based upon the returns of the enumerators of the several districts, will show the population of the city according to these divisions : First, Fourth and Sixth Wards,. 8,9.16 Second and Third Wards, 9,306 Fifth and Seventh Wards, 6,768 Eighth and Ninth Wards, 9,714 'lo[4ll SCIIOOI. MATTERS.—The School Directors of Washington township give evidence that they are awakening to the importance of common school education. They have decided to lengthen the school term from five to sin months. 411 the Schools in the district are now open, with the ex caption of two, where new buildings are being erected, and when these are completed and in operation the township will have eleven schools, the teachert of which receive salaries running from $36 to $4O a mouth. CONOILEUATION Sils:MN(l.—Mr. Theodore Seward is In this city for the purpose of forming singing classes to improve congregational singing in the various churches. A meeting we; hold in the Court House Sunday !Afternoon to further this project, snitch was intended more es pecially for the benefit of children, but it was attended by onmbers of adults, completely filling the spacious Court room. Mr. Seward gave ample evidence of his capacity for the work he has undertaken, and has the recommendation of having a wide-spread reputa tion as a musician of the first order. There was another meeting held at the Sal place in the evening which was also largely attended, and the interest talo] in the subject leaves no mom to doubt that Mr. Seward's mission here will be in the greatest degree successful. A juvenile class will be held every afternoon at 4 o'clock, five dor. io each o eels, ko.Llng two weeks, making ten lessons in all. The elemen tary prirelples and the art or reading music will by thoroughly taught in tkeS: . lessons.. A Cla,3 for adults will bt held every evening, during the same length of lime.

Mr. Seward has pre- pared a "condensed" meth,l by which pupils can learn to read amide much sooner than is the usual way. 204 192 Ting El , Errmx.—Theelection in this city, last week, was carried on quietly, but was noted for the amount (.1 . hard work. The Republicans, though in an apparently hope less majority in the county, showed a drier. munitionworthy of their cause. Though the result in the county, the tremendous gain for our popular nominee for Congress, is beyond our most sanguine anticipations and is enough glory for one election, we cannot but feel that the slaughter of our candidate fur Mayor is a deplorable calamity, to be regretted by every one having the rause at heart. In the ,•venin.4. when the result in the dif ferent wards was announced the excitement ran high, and the Democrat., bming their ex • pectations on the result lin* Mayor, had stron 25a hopes of polling it thousand majority in the comity, but Salisbury came in with a gain for Oliver of 131, and threw a wet blanket upon 240 the happy assemblage at their headquarters. 56 Tho First Ward did not help matters much, 2:io and North Whitehall was more them human 259 nature could be expected to bear, and the . 2 , rain, and upper Macungie, and Slatington, 254 and the different wards or Allentown, were . intolerable and 101 l them only the Mayor to rjoice over. So,at an early hour in tie Mg a good crowd, headed by a band of mar tial music, proceeded to the residence of nay -201 or (food to congratulate his Honor on his re. election. 'l'lle Republicans made their headquarters :It Ruhe's 05101)11, on Seventh street, below 1 lam. Mon, and the scene was one of continued en. thusiastn and rejoicing. As the return, came in there,was a universal expression of regret over the result of the Mayoralty contest, but' 39 the glorious triumphs of Oliver in the vari ous wards and townships were announced, the excitement woo unbounded and the hope of victory in the District was strong. Lehigh had done better and as it was reasonable to expect Montgomery had some desire t o e l ec t a Republican Congo ssninn, returns from that quarter were looked for with breathless anx iety. The short hours grew to long ones, and still there was 10) ray of light trout without the dark district of our sister county. All seem, d dead in 31ontgomery and fears were felt that she had beau deluged by the flood, when some hope NV:IS inspired by a despatch saying that uo figures could he liven hut• the returns indicated heavy gains for Oliver. The Republicans retired to their homes awaiting anxiously the break ~ r day wh'elt should bring u confirmation of their victory, list we have a'vaited in vain the cheering news that we had a right to expect. The result will be found itt another place, in this issue. Eat! 1 M!
