In saying this we do not mean to use the term drunken in Its broadest sense. Without at tempting to justify the practice we are free to con fess that there are men of our acquaintance that, when tight, are more amusing than otherwise. But when this lamentable condition Is Increased by a few more drinks and the man becomes so In toxicated that he cannot stand erect, and Is over powered by ignorance to boot, the character be- COMO, disgustiog lu the extreme ; and when to this chanicter is added the luminous title of school director the picture Is loathsome beyond expres sion. It will, no doubt, astonish some of our citi zens who live in virtuous retirement from the or dinary affairs of our city life to be told that lu this enlightened community, so noted for its en terprise, Its christian people, its manufactures, Its natural wealth and, above all, Its liberal provision for the education of Its youth ; in our own beloved Allentown we have just such characters, with just such a title, as last described. Individuals who pass for men, sovereigns of our great American nation, who glory in the usithin of School Direc tors, elevated by the suffrages of other sovereigns, who visit the public schools under their control, make drunken, disgusting speeches to teachers and scholars, frightening them alnthet out of their senses, address themselves to the stove and finally lay themselves over the school desks until aid min be summoned to clear the school - room of their presence. Such are two of the sovereigns who officiate 05 school directors loth° Sixth Ward. If the sovereigns of that delectable strongholdof the oppMdtkm party cannot be taught to elect decent, respectable men to preside over the Institutions of Icainilng Is that locality then it'd, Legislature ought to make soma special provision that Will remedy the evil. We have not the slightest objection to the sons of the Emerald Isle exercising the divine privilege of voting for whom they please, so long as It does not interfere with a few of the rights which some other peophi possess l but when they cast their Votes In such a way that the MIMI:, IR in sult to estimable ladies and disgrace upon, our whole city we fcCI we bare a right to put' in our pmtest.

The subject was "Jealous Little Mrs. Williams,' and while it gave the audience no new ideas, the matter which was so familiar to every family present was presented In such an amasing, pleas ing way that the audience was kept In a continual desire to laugh and was only too sorry when Mr. and Mrs. Williams, through the personal sacrifict of the lecturer, were made to enter anew upon a life of perfect harmony and happiness. The lecture committee deserve the gratitude of the community, In obviating for our citizens the necessity of going to New York or Philadelphia to enjoy the treat of a lecture by such talent, and we hopatliat when Miss Edgerton comes, on the 15th, of December, they will have a fuller house even than last night.

EVANS' HEADIER ENTERTAINMENT. —There was a very good audience at the Court House Friday evening to hear Prof. Evans read,and at the commencement of the entertain meat Rev. Mr. Grits expressed his grateful acknowledg ments to the friends who had 'so kiedly shown their interest in the Grace Church Sabbath School by their patronage. Mr. Evans commenced his reading with an incident In the life of Gen. Mull- Milberg, taken front Buchanan Read's " Wagoner of the Arleghanies." Ills other selections were: Five O'clock In the Morning; The Ghost; Orator Puff;Little Dombey's Death; The Grave Diggers in Hamlet; A Trial Scene, and Bob Sawyer's Party. The humorous portion of the entertainment was better rendered than the pathetic, and moor three of the selections were very well given—Bob Saw yer's Party certainly being one of the best. Upon the whole, Mr. Evans shows Iced Improvement over hit readings of a year ago than we had ex pected to find, and FORM of his selections scented to be given with even lees force and naturalness than we have heard them rendered by hitn before. The profession of a public reader brat the easiest laborious one, and only constant and untiring rare and study will enable one to take and main tain a leading place in this department of plat form work. NEW listLitonu correspon dent of the Lebanon Courier says :—" A number of gentlemen from Rending, Lebanon, Harrisburg and Allentown are Making arrangements to build a two feet six Inch page railroad from Allentown via Reading and Lebanon to Harrisburg, running along the Tuipehocken and Swatara creeks, for the purpose of carrying local freights and passen gers. They purpose placing the Farly engines on a narrow track, and the cost of construction and equipmeut is only one-third of the wide gunge roads of 4ft. 8. ineltes. The speed on these toads is front 20 to 25 miles au hoar, and freight can he carriad at one per cent. per ton per mile HMI yield a handsome revenue upon the investment. These roads are used extensively In Wales and In many places on the continent, in Australia and in Cana- Ain. In the latter place they are now building a road of this kind a distance of 120 miles. The Pacific Railroad Company are employed 111 build ing one a distance of 00 miles as it tributary to their main road. • The advantages of the road are that the grades are Immaterial, and the curve; no obstacles, as the cars arc short, nod the gunge only 2 feet C Inches or 3 feet, whilst the locomotive weigh, from Bto 12 tom Tho passenger cars are built .or 12 passengers, six on a side; and it is said that there Is scarcely any oscillation, and riding upon the road is much more pleasant and corn. fortable than on the wide gauge roads; and, be sides, the former will be much cheaper, and the cost of transportation only one-third of the pres ent railway fares and . freights." TIIE BIZTHLEDEM BRIDGE AND Burt Honu.. —A correspondent of the Now York World writes as follows Bethlehem, In Pennsylvania, has ti remarkable bridge and a venerable hotel. The bridge is 1,250 feet long. One end Is In the borough of Bethle hem, the other end In the borough of Booth Beth lehem. The ends of the bridge are In Northamp ton county, but the middle. section Is in Lehigh county. It passes over the Lehigh and Susque hanna railroad, the Lehigh Cool and Navigation company's canal, the Monocacy creek, the public road lending from Bethlehem to Taylor's Mills, Goat Island, (being an Island formed by a creek and a river.) the public road leading from Allen town to Hel[mown, the river Lehigh, six tracks of the Lehigh Valley railroad, and Front street, In the borough of South Bethlehem. If there Is a bridge in the country that accomplishes morenb }vets the people of the Bethlehems would. no doubt, like to know of Its locality. The old Mo ravian "Bun hotel,", or " Bun tavern," as it wan originally denominated, was built In 1758. It was designed and planned as a hotel; and the archl teet's original plan, with elevations and ground divisions, Is still preserved, being handsomely framed and hung up In the reading room. It Was built by the Moravian church congregation, and held by them for a long time. It has had but five proprietors In 112 years—the Moravian church, C. A. Luekenbarb, of Bethlehem, and John An dersen, of New York . city, (who pnichased from the church,) James Lelbert, Rufus A. Gilder, and Charles Brodhead, who la the present owner. The rooms In the main building are still as they ware Brat made. The main entrance Is as originally constructed, and.just as It wan when Washington. Hancock, the Adumses, Lafayette, Pulaski, Stun ban, and all the principal men of the revolution aAnurned within Its walls. When New York and Philadelphia were occupied by the British orioles, t ;,2d Congress was In sp-elan at• yprk, Pennayl vania, sjahlehein was on the only line of travel from Boston and the filet generally to York and the south. Hence the ward: of the hotel show that all the persons above named were frequently guests of the same. Lafayette made quite a stay vekhin Itt walls, having been sent there to recover front the wounds he received at the bottle of Brandywine. From Its construction tonic present time, it has been used as a hotel, und promises to rontinue as such for a pentitry or two more. LEHIGH VALLEY INDUSTRIES.

Tot Coo of 21.threrrito Coal in the Trim .11 fortorr ill the United State?. The manufactnre of Iron In the Lehigh Valley has now become an industrial Interest of so much Importance and value that we have thought It ad visable to present to our readers a history of the origin and growth of the manufacture of anthra cite pig iron in this region. The first iron success fully made in the United States by the use of an thracite coal was made in the Lehigh Valley thirty years ago, and at the present time over one-half of the anthracite pig Iron product In Pennsylvania, nearly one-third of the anthracite Iron manufac tured In the country, and one-sixth of the entire annual product of Iron In the United States are credited to the Lehigh region. The iron trade of the Lehigh Is therefore ar. Interest of more than local Importance, anti a history of the origin and progress of this department of business cannot fall to claim attention from those who favor the encouragement and RUMPS of American Industry, as well as front those who have a direct concern in the material wealth and development of this locality. =1 Forty years ago iron manufacturers everywhere were experimenting and studying in regard to the use of anthracite coal In the manufacture of pig Iron. It was me of thegrcat problems at the time, and Its successful solution marked a most Impor tant era In the industrial history of the world. One of the filet men to grapple with Oils practical difficulty In the manufacture of iron was Mr. David Thomas, then a young man in the iron business In Wales. As early as 18:26 Mr. Thomas made experiments and investigations upon this subject In connection with Mr. Crane, en Iron master. These experiments were carried on at Yffiscedwin, Wales. Mr. Crane owning a third Interest In the iron works there. For a long time th. Ir txts .%; -s in results, and it was nut till l‘tiin that the pit - Allem was blieeer.s. rally mdweil. Sininq oar coning hi the latter year by a sluggl-h grate tire of anthracite coal, both of them intent sport the matter which wits absorbing hair time' and attention, Mr. Thomas commenced the use of a bellows to quicken the Ike Mr. Crane retnonstrated with hint, and told him he would extinguish the tire rather than increase It by that means. Mr. Thomas at once replied to Mr. Crane's remonstrance that if the air from the bellows could only he heated it would certainly int reuse the combustion of the coal. A nearly sleepless night followed this eonversation, and the next morning round them pun:tang the line of thought suggested by the grate lire and the use or the bellows. Two years before a Mr. Neilson, at Glasgow,, had patented a process for heating air by conducting it through pipes heated by gas or flame, and Messrs. Crane and Thomas concluded that perhaps Mr. Nellson's process could be made available In theme of anthracite coal for the man ufacture of iron. Mr. Thomas at once net out for Glasgow to see Mr. Neilson, and made arrange °lonia with him for the construetion of a hot blast •tove for heating air. Mr. Neilson took this stove to Yniseed win, and applied It to a furnace out of Mist, and when thin furnace was blown in with anthracite coal it worked to a charm. This was the first successful manufacture of anthracite pig iron in the world. TIIE lIEGINNINU AT CATASAINUA. ' The successful application of anthracite coal to the manufacture of Iron naturally attracted very wide attention, and the results of the experiments and trials at Yniseed win were quickly published In the English mining Journals and in the Ameri can newspapers. A few years before this time anthraehe coal had been discovered 111 the Lehigh region In the vicinity of Summit Mil, Mid the gentlemen connected with the Lehigh Coal auil Navigation Company were seeking some way in which to utilize the' product of their coal mines. Prominent among these gentlemen were, Josiah White, Erskine Ilayard, Thomas Kimball, Nathan Trotter, Robert Earp and Thotnas Earp, and as soon as they found that a way had been discovered for successf ally - using anthracite coal In the man ufacture of iron they sent- one of their number, Mr. Hazard, to Wales, to see what could be done toward starting the Iron business In the Lehigh Valley. The result of this trip was the engage ment of Mr. David Thomas to come and superin tend the construction and operation of a furnace, and In the spring of 183 t) Mr. Thomas arrived at Allentown, and at once commenced excavating for a furnace at Catasauqua. It was no small un dertaklng to buila a furnace in those days, but It was completed In a little over a year. All the fire bricks used hi it had to be brought from Wales, and It required no little energy and courage to carry on a work which was looked upon us en tirely visionary• by many of the people in the vi cinity. One man, himself the proprietor of tt small charcoal iron fut i ttace, expressed his will ingness to eat all the iron that should ever be made in the Lehigh Valley with anthracite coal, and the. enterprise bud to be prosecuted In the face of much incredulity of that kind. Mr. Thomas'old associate, Mr. Crane, sent over a hot blast stove and Mowing cylinders which were applied to the furnace; and on the 4th of July - PAO the flint iron Wan cast. The furnace worked very well from the start, and made frOm thirty-tine to forty tons of iron per week. This yield was grad nutty in creased with experience and the application o:lm provements. and now the same 'furnace, slightly higher and considerably improved, over its Ilist coi , Structlon, yields about three times Its original product per week. It Is sometimes claimed that the first nu cessful use of anthracite coal fu the manufacture of iron in Pennsylvania was at Putt-- tillr, but this is a mistake. I'riorto ylr. Thomas' settlement on the Lehigh, unsuccessful experi ments with anthracite coal bail been made by iron men at South Easton, Mauch Chunk and Potts vllle, and while Mr. Thomas was building his far. Inoue at Catasnuqua he Was called to Pottsillie as a Consulting Engineer by the met: in charge 01 the Pioneer Works there. Ile gave advice In re ' Bard to the brushing of the (minuet., and shortly fterwards blew in the furnace for them with the hot blast. This wan after the tune of anthracite was seen to be n success on the Lehigh, and to thin region, therefore, and to Mr. Thomas belong all the credit and honor of Introducing the success• NI use of anthracite coal In the manufacture 01 pig Iron in the United States. =I No . . 1 furnace was followed by No. 2 in 1843 ; No. 3 was commenced In 1845 and was blown In In 1846; Noe. 4 and 5 were commenced In 1850 and were blown In In 1851, and No. 6 was com menced In September 1867, and was blown In in August, 1868. All of the furnaces except. No. 6 were originally forty feet high. NOA. I and 2 now forty-five feet high, Nos. 3, 4 and 5 are fifty. live feet high, and No. 6 sixty feet. The bosh of No. 1 Is eleven feet, that of No. 2 thirteen feet, that of No. 3 In sixteen feet, and that of Nos. 4, 5 and 6 seventeen feet. No. 3 furnace has a capa city of about two hundred tons per week, Nos. 4 and 5 it combined weekly capacity of about five hum'red tons, and No. 6 about two . hundred and sixty tons of foundry Iron. I•ery molly improve fuents haVe of coarse been made since No. 1 fur nace was built, and Mom Improvements are made use of as fast as possible. At 'lrk, the motive power used for producing the blast was water power ; after a time steam was used In connection with the water-wheel blowing machinery, but the latter was finally set aside and steam alone Is now used In producing the blast. The first blowing engine was put up for mie with No. 3 In 1846; and two more Were put imp for use with Nos. 4 and 5 in 1850. Those have since been thoroughly remod eled and new ones added, nod there are now four blowing engines, two of which have a capacity of eight thousand cubic feet of air per minute, an• other twelve thousand, and the fourth and largest Ilftton thousand. Tile aggregate capacity is therefore forty-three thousand cubic feet of air per minute, and these engines are among the finest specimen■ of powerful and exact working Ma: eldnery which we lave ever seen. They furnish both In themselves and ill their work a beautiful and forcible Illustration of the power of mind over matter.. These engines were manufactured by I. P. Norris Ai Co„ The hot blast stoves which were used at first for lienthii thy blast before Its Introduction into the furnace have been succeeded by hot blast ovens, which have been used since 1840, the first one be ing used In connection with NO.' 3 fernery. Formerly coal was used In heating the blast, but now both the blast and the steam boilers are heated by the waste gases from the furnaces, those which are not necessary In smelling the iron ore and watch were formerly lost. The utilizing of these gases In this way is an immense improve ment mien the old methodolnd makes a great sac log In the amount of coal consumed. TIIE WORE OF TEE COMPANT The Magnetic iron ore used at these works Is obtained front Morris county, N. J., and from the Lehigh Mountain, this county ; the Hematite ore is obtained in Lehigh, Northampton and Berke counties ; the limestone mostly from the Jordan quarries about four miles front Catasauqun, and the coal from Carbon county. When the furnaces are all in full operation the annual consumption Is about 115,000 tons of ore, 100,000 tons of coal, and 75,000 tons of limestone, and the annual pro duct Is about fifty thousand tons of foundry Iron. Furnaces 2 and ii are now out of blast for repairs and improvements. To carry on the work of the Company In all Its departments requires the labor of about twenty-five hundred men. Two large locomotives are employed In transporting the ma terial and the Iron about the works, and twosmall ones are used for carrying away the cinders from the furnaces. Iu connection with the Thomas Company nt Hokendanqua the Lehl4h Crane Com pany owns and operates a railroad twenty four miles In length for the transportation of ore primarily, although It Is now used for the trans portation of passengers as well. All the foundry, boiler, blacksmith and machine shop work Is done on the premises, and the Company is now erect ing a fire proof building in which to store Its pat terns. The Company owns nearly a hundred dwelling houses for the use of Its workmen. =I The Lehigh'Critne Company was incorporated in 1839 with a capital of $50,000. Tne name was given to it from the location and In Minor of Mr. Crane. The present capital of the Company Is $1,250,000. At the organization of the Company Mr. Robert Earp was chosen President and Mr. David Thomas as Superintendent. Mr. Thomas continued in charge of the constantly increasing works Of the Company u n til 1855, when he re signed, and since that time he has had no active connection with the Company, although he has always give' It the benefit of his valuable prac tical experie:.ce In advice and consultation. Mr. Thomas was succeeded ns Superintendent by his son, John Thomas, who occupied the place from 1855 to 1869, when he resigned to take the gene ral superintendency of the Thomas Iron Works et Ilokendauqua. Mr. John Thomas was sue. ceeded by Mr. Joshua punt, a son-In law of St r. David Thomas, who Is now In charge attic works. Mr. Thomas Hunt, a son or the Superintendent, is Assistant Superintendent. Mr. Earp was suc ceeded Its President by Mr. Theodore Mitchell of Pidladelphia,and he was succeeded by Mr.Ge.oA. Wood of Philadelphia, the present President. The Finance Department of the Company's business Is under , the charge of Mr. B. J. Leedom, the Treasurer at the Company's office In Philadelphia, and Mr. John %Villiams, the Cashier at the Works. The Mining Department is in charge of R. A. iloyer as Agent, and the Department of Machinery Is minder the personal Bursa vision of Thomas E. Evans, the Master Meehan le. The stock of the Company Is largely held by Philadelphia and Now York capitalists.

CONVENTION.—PetiaOII9 to the Legislature for a Constitutional Convention have been prepared by the Executive Committee appointed by the Minority Convention held a few months ago at Reading, and they are now ready for signatures in this city and county. They will generally be found at the post Mikes, and those interested in the Convention movemert setii do well to give their signatures as early as possible. iii Lltdous.—The committee appointed at u recent session of the Lehigh Presbytery to VIATt the several churches within the Presbytery are now attending to their duller. The committee ap pointed to visit the Presbyterian church In this city consisted of Rev. Mr. James of Milhaud Rev Mr. Little of llokendanqua, tind they will he here on Tuesday and Wednesday and will preach in the church on the evenings of those days. The special religions meetings which have been held In the Linda' street M.

A NEw I)mu,.—They . arc itsh.g in soine parts of Schuylkill county Brazilian diamonds In drilling for the purpose of testing the value of coal and mineral lands. The diamonds, in their nat ural rough state, are set In a bit, or bead, of hard ened steel, in which there 'are small openings to permit the passage of water, a continuous stream of which is forced through It. We bit, which le about two inches In diameter, Is attachvd tots sec tion of ordinary gas-pipe. and is made to rotate, by appropriate machinery, at •the rate of from 1,000 to 2.000 revolutions per minute, and being propene , ' by meaos a a screw, every revoluthuris hound to push it forward a certain distance into the rock. Very sucenssful and satjsfactory ex perbnente, bare been made with these diamond and we believe a company has been formed smnewPere in this State for the preparation of 11116 new drilling machine. THE Cott. Tfammt.—'ll he trade Is falling off front the Schuylkill region while it Is increasing from the othere. Prices are low,and the demand so slack that several operators have stopped their collieries for the want of orders. The supply of anthracite for the week is 258.466, against 365,161 tons for the corresponding week last year. Total supply of anthracite, 13,923,118 tons against 11,- 515,4(19, showing an increase of anthracite of 2,- 406,709 10,18. The supply of all klub for the week la 415,706, against 422,171, and for the year, 15,900,251, against 13,655,155 tons—lnereaso for the year so far of all "kinds . , 2,245,096. The semi anthracite trade has Increased 76,118 tons, and the tom/dhotis trade has fallen off so far this year 247,711 tons. JUdging from the return. 4 we have the whole increased supply of coal this year, in cluding tile gas coal of all kinds, moved towards the seaboard will not fall much, If any, short of 2,500,000 tons.—.llinere Journal. HAREEM:CV/1 OPERA 110tiSE.—There is probably no busier scene in the city than •at Ilagenbuch's Opera House. Workmen In every branch are busily engaged in hurrying forward the completion of the building. Mr. Benjamin Ilagenbuch is present during all the working hours, superintending the wbrk,,and 'indefati gable In his efforts to secure to the public a build ing faultless In construction. Especially is his attention given to the erection of the apparatus for heating, and through his supervision over this part of the arrangement the possibility of fire communicating front the flues has been effectually prevented. Ample preparation has been made for subduing tire In case it should breakout among the scenes. Large water pipes have been Intro duced,and hose will be in readiness toter!) on the water at a moment's notice. The greater part of the labor is Just now being disposed upon thepalcony. As the carpenters put the finishing man ding on the front they are closely lollowed by the painters, who give It the priming coat. When finished, the body of the front of the balcony will be painted a bright carmine, which will be covered by momenta, gilt aud open Iron work, and x9ll, present a very rich appearance. From this, handsome brackets will be suspended to light the dress circle. To give additional sup port to the balcony, movable posts wi I be Inserted under both ends, which can be taken away when the building is rented for balls. The capacity of the house will accommodate an audience of about fourteen hundred, and to secure this vast aggre gation of humanity from'danger no expense has been spared to make the betiding of the most sub stantial character, the side walls being eighteen Inches In width, and the front being supported by pillars twenty-two inches in diameter supported by heavy Iron lining bolted through and through. The first entertainment, If arrangements can be perfected, will be given on the 26th of December, for the benefit of the proprietors. It will probably consist of vocal and instrumental music by some of the best talent that can'be procured, and will undoubtedly boa first-class affair, On the 27th a singing society will have a benefit;.on the 28th there will he u testimonial entertainment for one of our fire companies, and on the 29th Mlle Zotos troupe will commence an engagement of two weeks.

There was a brilliant and fashionable wedding at Christ church, Reading, on Saturday evening last. Tho parties were Mr. Richmond L. Jones and Miss Margaret E. McCarty. daughter or Janice Mc- Carty. There were live• bridesmaids and live grootnstmn, and the whole o Wale was of a very Imposing character. COPLAY.—On Friday evening last, Mr. George Ruppert had his shoulder dlelocated while In the act of braklng,a cinder ear from the descant of the bank toward the furnace. A new limestone quarry was recently opened on Mr. O. L. Schreiber's farm, and connection made thereto by a side track from the Ironton Railroad. The quarry is leased and worked by a company of four men, who realize an ample profit from the enterprise. c , Surveys and preparations have been made for the erection of works for the manufacture of hy draulic cement in Coplay, north and Just above the site of the Coplay cement works, by is company that has been recently organized. A DEER HUNT NEAR SAERE3RVILLE.-011 Saturday afternoon of last week, as Messrs. Wm. Fry and Jacob Elerkemeyer of Saegersville were out on a rabbit hunt in the fields about a quarter of a mile mitt of the village, they were surprised by the sudden appearance of a large deer. Not being provided with the right kind of ammu nition to give his buckship a reception, they re turned home on the double-quick for supplies and mer, and In a very short time every available man In the village reported for duty.. For a time pow der, buckshot and prectission caps were in an un usual demand at the store of Messrs. Kistler Peter. The party left .the village with . bright hopes of success, but returned late in the evening disappointed, disgusted and tired. It has since been ascertained that the doer took a westward course from where he had been seen, and that other parties had also fojiuwed hint, but with who t success is not known as yet. Undoubtedly, however, the audacious buck has ere this had to pay the penalty for disturbing the quiet of the peace loving citizens of the upper part of this county. SPELLING —At the recent session of the Teachers' Institute' at Lancaster there was con siderable stress lath upon spelling, and the follow ing list is a specimen of the words given out for the teachers in attendance to try their skill upon: Calla, Nebuchatthentar, Myceloid, itsymietle, Geniuses, I'o(mm:est:ln, Cocagne, Nog, Cochineal, ihmlogra pin , Lu mellar, Briton, Cockatrice's, flaythm or Haitian, Adiathertnie, Enametar.

It Is certainly au excellent thing to know how to spell, nod it is important that our teachers should aim at giving faithful and correct Instruc tion In this department. But it la of no earthly use to anybody to be able to put together such combinations of letters Uri were given out at Lan caster, and ire are surprised to tee a Teachers' Institute countenancing such a waste of lime and energy. It is of far store . importance that a person should he able to spell the words which he Is obliged to use constantly,than those whlcn will hardly ever be brought to his attention i xeept at a Teachers' Institute: DEDICATION 01 , TILE UENI ETERS' 01-. — rim ST. JOHN'S CONGREGATION AT FOGELSWILLE.—A cor respondent sends us the following: "The grave yard belonging to this congregation was consid ered by some of the church members to he not altogether its It should be for decent burial of the dead. It was, therefore, agreed that a part of the Burro:toiling land should be set asido for the pur poses of a cemetery. Mr. Correll, owning land which adjoins the lands of the congregation, agreed to measure off a part to be used for a ceme tery. Ile Immediately set about making the neces sary arrangements. Lots were measured off and sold, and arrangements made to have it dedicated as n burial ground on the 20th day Of November. The day dawned with a cool ale, but with a serene sky, Whieh encouraged our people with the hope that there wmild ben pleasant day. The forenoon services were conducted by Prof. Sell:, of Allen town, and a splendid sermon he delivered on the text front Job 30 : 23. The afternoon and evening services were conduchal In the Gerinan language by Rev. Alfred Dubbs, who held the audience spell-bound by his eloquence. hi the forenoon there was a slim attendance, but when noon was past people were seen wending their way - from all directions towards the church, and it was found at the opening of service that a large concourse of people were about to attend the dedication in the .afteritoon. Everything passed off finely until the time came for collections. Collections were taken both In the afternoon and evening, but they were not very generously responded to, owing, in some cases-at lung, to some tESPatiSraCtioll with the maimer In which the matter was presented." WOMAN'S MIS I N.-11ev. Mr. (Ivies preached an excellent sermon upon the general subject Woman's Mission at Grace church Sunday evening. Taking for his text tie wot'ds " A help 7 meet for hltn,"lrom the account of the creation in Genesis, he unfolded the Biblical idea of (tic relit tlol3 of the two sexes to each other and sharply criticised and combated the claims of the so-called modem •reformers who think that woman Is de graded unless she comes In direct competition with man. fie dwelt upon the personal, social, moral anti natiomtl value of good homes, and pic tured the unpleasant consequences which would follow the breaking up of homes to allow women to assume the cares and duties of that public life for which a few of them are so eagerly clamoring. Mr. Giles believes that women can doa better and more Important work by acting as helpmeets for men, by making homes pleasant and nttractlve, by softening and elevating the masculine nature nd eltaracter,by carefully training and edurat log their sous and daughiers, than by undertak ing to compete directly wit it men In the diecharM. of men's duties and the performance of men's work. The discourse was a good one, sensible. and suggestive, end it was very attentively lis tened to by n large audience, Without the soften ing and elevating influences of home, the tender and thoughtful care of WIVE'S, mothers, sisters and daughters, men would surely and rapidly degen erate and the woman who does whatever she can to make a pleasant home for some hand or brain worker need not trouble herself about the narrow ness of her " sphere." A great part of what the worker sceomplishes is due to the helpmeet's In fluence anti help, and the Creator who made both man and woman, anti gave them d'flerent natures for different work, will certainly not defraud wo man of her deserved share of credit for the work done In the world.
