Crmucnty BENEVOLENT , SOCIETIES.
Some of our city congregations have benevolent
societies to support the poor in their midst, in roses
of sickness and death, and thtni exercise brotherly
love. The "Armen-vereln" of St. Paul's German
Lutheran church has been In existence for about
ten years and still continues Its labors of love.
Mrs. Spiess, a poor widow, whose funeral took
place on Monday, was attended to by the society
for the poor in St. Peter's German Lutheran
church In First Ward. It would be well if all
Christian congregations had a regular organizt-
Wm to attend to the poor and the sick in a proper
way.

killed lately on the Lehigh Valley Railroad, at
Welmport, held two life policies, amounting to
tt 7000, both of which he had allowed to ran out, by
neglect to pay op the premiums ; one of $4OOO In
the Penn. Mutual, of Phila., and the other of MOO
In the Equitable of New .York. In his case it
would have proved pecuniarily acceptable, having
left a widow with a large family to provide for.
Had he Insured In the Berkshire, whose policies
arc non•furfeilable, his widow would have re
ceived the amount insural less the interest and
the premiums due.

FEARFUL ACCIDENT.—The Norristown
Herald, of Thnrsd.ty evening, says : Yesterday af
ternoon, Mrs. Mullen, a resident of Swedesburg,
who had been on a visit to a friend at Mogeetown
and was returning, and was crossing the track on
hzr way to the boat what she was struck by the
lime care, which Ilanz her across the track, both
her hips broken and both her feet cut off above
the ankle. In this condition she was conveyed to
Norristown.
This family have boon particullarly unfortunate.
It is but three months,yesterday, since we record
ed the death of her husband by the caving In of an
ore bank at Upper Nlcrion. One of the sons ,had
his arm labs off by an accident while nt his work,
a short time since, and now this last terrible ace'.
dent leaves a large family of children orphans and
utterly destitute.
THE ATTI.NTION of the Board of Trade in
called to the fact that excursion tickets arc sold
on the East Penn. Ito liread to Allentown only on
Saturdays, whereas they are sold to Reading every
day in the wed:. .1 difference of twenty-five or
thirty cents from stations about midway between
here and Reading operates against us and takes
considerable trade to the latter city which would
come here If the fares were equalized. We are
confident If the lloard of Trade should take the
matter in hand, that the Reading Railroad.Com
pony Would 1,511 , 2 excursion tickets to Allentown
and retorts, also every day in the week, and then
we should stand on an equality - with Reading In
this respect. As the travel on the East Pennsyl
vania Railroad is daily increasing and the trade
along the line of the road is constantly becoming
morn and more important, the matter is worthy
the attention of the Board of Trade.

PonKura PicKED.--An unusually large
number of pick-pockets were it attendance at the
Fair and that they should have carried on their
operations so successfully for several days without
detection is a matter of surprise.
Danny Mill, the peanut man, had his pocket
picked yesterday. The amount stolen was thirty
dollars In money.
A daughter of Charles Henninger, of South
Whitehall, lost a 'gold watch, valued at seventy
dollars, lu the same manner, yesterday afternoon.
The case of Danny NIIII is a sad one, became
he is a hard worker and his profits lire So small
that thd theft is a hard blow upon him. Some
pickpockets have just enough conscience left to
condo,: their operations to the rich, but those who
plied their trade at the Fair appear to be among
the lowest of the low. We regret they could aot
have been brought under Judge Longaker's hands.
Tobias Smith, of Easton, had his pocket relieved
of forty-live dollars at the Lehigh Valley Depot, on
Thursday, while was waiting for the train to
take him home.

cannot fail to attract the attention of the public.

ceiving orders for the best coal In the market.
ACCIDENTS.—LnatFrid ay Peter Dersehock
and wife, of Hazleton, were Injured by a bill board
falling upon them In front of Reuben Shimer's

sprained.
Stephen Lentz says the boy run over by bin car
riage at the Falr had no limbs broken.
A son of Edwin Trozell was run over at Sixth
and Gordon yesterday afternoon, by a two horse
carriage.
There is too much fast driving to and from the
Fair. Pedestrians havo somo rights and they
should see that they are enforced.
The Democrat, In referring to the Democratic
meeting at the Allen Muse on Thursday evening
last, gets off the following delicious specimen of
sarcasm. Those who were at the meeting will
enjoy a hearty laugh over it :—" The closing
speech was made by Mr. Stiles, who never fails to
respond to the calls of his fellow.eltizetts. As
most of our readers have beard him at some time
or another, it would be useless to attempt to de
scribe how badly he made the Radicals feel ou
this occasion as be gave them KWIC borne thrusts.
You could have seen some of them retire in con
fusion. At the termination of his address the crows?
of enthusiastic Democrats indulged in &Arty cheers
for the State nominees, and then quietly dispersed to
their homes."
Bah ! Is hearty cheers.
THE Catasaugun Record tins turned Demo
cratic and opposes Mr. Boyer for the Legislature.
Lim all Democratic papers It Is very Inconsistent
and opposed to the interests which sustain the
cmtnunity. Without her manufacturing estab
lishments Catasauqua would not be a town and
the Record would not be published, yet when we
want to scud a round, practical, common-sense
business man to the Legislators to look after the
Interests of this community, the Record seeps
through misrepresentation so peculiar to its party
to . prejudlee the laboring men ag,alnst Mr. Boyer.
Fortunately the mechanics and laboring men
know their interests better than the Record man
can tell them, and they will vote for Mr. Boyer in
preference to Mr. Fetter, who has not a sympathy
in common with the laboring men of Lehigh
county, and whose whole record, even in 11344,has
been against the Industrial interests of the county.
M. H. MALLORY LS: CO., publishers of The
Churchman, of this city, have brought that paper
up until It has a circulation not only larger than
that of any other Church paper, but very nearly
as large as the combined circulation of all the
others. They aro about to give a hitherto ,unpa
ralleled exampleof enterprise In a religious weekly.
The Triennial Convention of the Episcopal Church
will open its session hi Baltimore, October 4th,
and continue about three weeks. Mallory & Co.
will Issue The Churchman daily during the Con
vention, and give a verbatim report of the pro
ceedings, as fall as the Globe's congressional re
port. The phonographic reporting will be con- .
dtmted by Mr. D. F. Murphy, chief of the official
corps of reporters in the United States Senate,
aided by a sufficient number of his own corps.
This report will be adopted by the Couvention as
officlal,and afterward published In pamphlet fiw ,
as usual.—Hartford Courant.

THE DEMOCRATS, as was expected, held a
meeting at the Allen llouse,Thursdayevenlog,and
were preached to and harangued by Hon. 0. F.
Perrin, formerly of the home of Jackson, but now
of the State of New York, at the capital thereof.
Mr. Perrin Is without doubt a true Southerner.
He has the "Lost Cause" ring and as
. a repealer
of phrases Is only equalled by the repeaters of
votes,, who so nobly taught the Adminlstratlen of
Abraham Lincoln that they couldn't carry on their
draft in New York. Mr. Perrin. being in a land
of few negroes thought It safe to uphold the riots
of Horatio Seymour and the burning of the colored
Orphan Asylum. Heaald :
IN THE DARK DAYS OF '62, WHEN ALL
TILE OTHER STATES AROUND lIER SEEMED
ENGULPHED IN THE BLACK SEA OF RADI
CALISM, NEW YORK STOOD TRUE TO THE
DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES, AND HER BAY
ONETS WERE TURNED AGAINST THE GEN
ERAL GOVERNMENT, and we will do It again
IT Grant attempts to send Federal bayonets to
New York to execute the laws. Mr. Perrln was
here Interrupted with applause, led by John D.
Stiles and followed by the little band of numb
skulls who had not brains enough to know the
Import of the words they were applauding. If
isuch sentiments aro to be uttered In a civilised
city of America and be applauded by Americans,
then, Indeed, those three hundred thousand slain
have died In vain.
Ile said—" We In New York will look for good
returns front the good old Keystone State, and if
she Is true to the Democratic principles we will
build ban-fires and fire guns from the Battery.
But If you let the State be carried by the Radicals
In next October, I would blot you frosts that starry
brner and cover you with Infamy and disgrace."
HIS said that he had not always been a Democrat,
but belonged to the old•line Whig party as long
as It wan in ellstence. But when that party,died
he looked around and thought be haduo place to

go, to. In 1850 he went from Tennessee, the home
•
of Jackson, and the home of several other bully
fellers—he actually went from those fellow. ,
homes—went up to New York, the great Empire
State, the great State of New York, went up there
to make a speech and when he got there the Re
pablican party was being baptised, and what did
he see? No one presuming to answer, he said he
saw there a Republican meeting, a Fremont meet •
lag, and above its head wan a banner—and on
th it banner were fifteen stars blotted out. Now,
he told a lie—a bare-faced lie,—but he gave his
audience the Impression that It was a terrible
thing to plot out stars, yet he In going to blot out
our star It we don't carry Pennsylvania forthc
Democrats. Mr. Perrin, as a blotter, may be a '
better success than he Is as a relator of facts, but
we give him fair warning that although be came
from the home of Jackson and has taken up his
abode among the homes of Riotous Seymour, Boss
Tweed, Dick Connolly, Pete Sweeney, Jim Fisk,
the Eric Railway and the ltith of July riots, be
had better not come to Pennsylvania and fool
around our star or there might be another added
o the list of rebel killed and wounded.

L..OFESSORSHIP ACCEPTED.—WC Into that
the.. Rev. Dr. T. G. Apple has, after mature
deliberation, concluded to accept the professorship
In th'e Theological Seminary at Lancaster, Pa., to
which he was lately elected by the Synod of the
Reformed church In the United States at a special
meeting, and Is making arrangements to enter
upon the duties of the Professorship on the first of
January next. The friends of this institution
throughout the church, we learn, are , rejoicing
much and congratulating themselves over the fact
that the chair Is filled by one so able and practical
as Dr. Apple has proved himself to be on the va
rious church questions. Dr: Apple, though a
comparatively young man, has stood prominently
before the church for. many years, and has been
regarded as progressive on the different church
questions. On the floor of Synod lie Is invariably
heard nod Is regarded as ono of the hest debators
and most ready speakers. Ills remarks arc always
pointed and practical and characterized with much
abilit Ills articles in the Mercersburg Review
o which he Is at present editor, are ably written
and show evidence of much research and ability.
They are, moreover, churchly and may safely he
taken as a full exponent of the Nlerecrsburg School
of Theology. Mercersburg College under his man
agement as President has grown from 'a small
school and become nu active young college, and In
every way vigorous and with Its present prosperi
ty continued will, in the course of time, make it
self more generally known. Dr. Apple is an ear
nest supporter of high churchism which position

Tilt. 'REPUBLICAN MEETINU, on the Square,
at the Eagle Hotel, Thursday cvening,was largely
attended and exhibited more enthusiasm than any
other meeting of the campaign. Col. Wm. M.
Houkle, of Philadelphia, was the first speaker, and
v. as followed by Capt. Curry,the "greasy mechan
ic," of Philadelphia, who told the working men
EOM useful facts. Referring to the Protective
Tariff he asked where had the Demonratle party
done any thing for Protection. There Is not a
Democratic paper in Pennsylvania that Is the true
friend of Protection. In John Cessna's district,
last year, Mr. Myers, the editor of the Harrisburg
Patriot, the leading Democratlcorgan of the State,
Was elected to Congress on a Free Trade platform
against old Andy Stewart, a veteran Protectionist
and a co-worker of Henry Clay. Yet Democratic
orators, would ask you, workingmen, for your
votes. In P 44, tbcytold you that Polk and Dallis
were better Tariff men than Henry Clay. You
elected them, and after the Tariff bill was passed
In the House, it received a tie vote, In the United
States Senate,when Geo. M. Dallis, who
had been elected as a Tariff man,gave
the casting vote in favor of Free Trade and sent
the laboring men of America begging from door
to door, while our gold and sliver went abroad to
enrich the British Monopolists. The Democratic
party had closed up the furnaces, machine shops,
mills and factories of the land three times in its
history and we can't afford to trust them again.
A Democrat was making a Free Trade speech In
Cincinnati and said that he gave ten dollars Is
England for the coat he had on his back and he
could not buy It In Cincinnati for less than forty
dollars. If we had Free Trade we could buy every
thing cheaper. A German tailor here Interrupted
him. " Did you say you paid only ten dollars for
dat coat In England T" " Yes, sir." " Well dot
coat is worth forty dollars. But dell me, If that
coat only cost ten dollars how much did der man
get what made It 7" That w•as the whole question
in a nut-shell and the speaker had to subside. The
question of 'cheapness was only the Democratic
side of the issue. There were many articles that
had been made cheaper In this country after the
Government had given the manufacturer the for
t tog care of Protection. Steel rails of British
1 111,
make had been sold at first in this country for $14(1
per ton. The Government adopted a Tariff on steel
rails and as soon .as a steel mill in Pennsylvania
put its rails on the market the price dropped to
a ton, and now they can be bought for $9O a*
ton In greenbacks where they formerly cost $144.1
in gold. That's the way Protection affects prices.
It is not the policy of England to enter into fair
competition with American manufacturers. They
want to break down our industries and make us
solely dependent upon them. They have millions
of dollars worth of goods stored in Liverpool ware
houses and as. EOOll as the Democrats get into
power and give us Free Trade they will rush these
goods upon the American market, break down our
manufacturers, make paupers of American labor
ers, and then they will have the market all to them
selves, to charge what they pleasemnd the moment
smoke starts from the stacks of one of our manu
factories they will again flood the market and
drive our workmen into the streets to beg. That's
what was done in the old Democratic times and
that's what will be done again if the laboring men
are not true to the party that has protected them
and stood by theta—the glorious Republican party
OUR NEW RAILnoAD.—An article which
appeared in the CHRONICLE of Friday last relat
ing to the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company's In
tention to purchase a sufficient amount of the
stock of the North Pennsylvania Railroad so us to
s,curc control of the same has brought to our mind
farts which cannot fall to benefit every citizen of
Allentown, if ant• the entire county in which we
reside. At no time since the rumor first circulat
ed that we were to haven railroad extending from
the Lehigh & Susquehanna Railroad at Hocken
dauqua, passing through that section of country
uort and west of Allentown to a point In the
neighborhood of Fifteenth or Sixteenth streets,
thence by way of Griesemer's, Charles Eisen-
Lard's, John llottensteln's and Lawrence Kline'e
Corms, or that immediate vicinity, to Emaus, for
the.purpose of intersecting with the Perkionicu
Railroad at the latter named place, have the pros
pects fur Its speedy completion been no bright as
at present. The fact that the Lehigh Valley
Company have succeeded In gobbling up a good
share, very nearly or quite the controlling portion
of the stock of the North Peon., and are deter
mined to secure control of said road before Janu
ary Ist, 1872, lets caused the stock of the latter
road to advance $lO per share, and which, if ac
complished, will put thoL. and S. out In the cold
so far as an outlet to Philadelphia Is concerned•
These are plain, reasonable and undeniable facts
What will be the result? Au outlet must be en
cured by the Lehigh & Susquehanna Company.
The most feasible route Is the one mentioned
above, and we havd been Informed by railroad
men of itilluenae and undoubted Integrity that,
should the North Penn. fall Into the hands of the
Lehigh Valley this connecting link will be put un
der contract Immediately. Now that the Perklo
men Railroad Is completed to Green Lane, and
will immediately be put under contract from tba ,
point to Pennsburg, less than ten tulles fron
Einaus, and from thence to the latter name
place, but a short time will elapse before we wil
hear the glad tidings that our enterprising city
will have another through route from the coal re
gions to Philadelphia—shorter,easier and through
a finer section of country than any other complet
e I. It will give the Lehigh & Susquehanna an
outlet for their coal traffic. The country
through a hich it passes Is prolific and the people
residing along the line intended to be adopted are
of the most enterprising class and nothing will
'be left undone to secure the completion of the
road at an early day. The mineral wealth of the
country lying between our place and Philadelphia
Is equal to any in the world. No section needs
more truffle, freight or merchandise, nor is there
any reason to doubt that,if fairly developed, a rich
er territory can not be fotind anywhere. The con
templated rould Is lined with splendid farms, grist
mills and manufactories of various kinds, and
more are daily springing up in anticipation of the
new road being built. It Is estimated that more
freight will be carried over this new route than a
single track will be capable to bear, thus compel
ling the Company to lay a second track. A few
have formed an idea that to avoid the expense of
constructing the ten miles of road necessary to
form this connecting link, a bridge across the Le
high River, a short distance below Allentown,
connecting the Lehigh and Susquehanna with the
East Penn Railroad will be erected. For various
reasons this would be an actual deviation from all
Judicious management, In this that the very
source front and to which large. shipments of
freight would be made (the Iron furnaces ou this
side or the Lehigh river) would be entlrely'ent off
and many dollars lost. The knowing ones, how
, ever, are our authority and reasonably .we place
no credit In Ifs and ands. We shall give your
readers more Information on this subject ere long.

To-day, Thursday, the great day of Fair Week,
to which our people hove been looking forward
with big anticipations, opened clear and cool. At
an early hour the principal streets of the city were
lined with people arriving from the country and
all the traine,,coming in during the morning were
crowded with persons comiugto the Fair,the large
number of extra trains being barely adequate
to accommodate the great demand upon them.
The Emaus Band wits again in attendance and
made things lively by their music. This band is
an honor to the quiet old town to which It belongs
and the sturdy citizens of that Moravian settle
meat have reason to be proud of its appearance
and its performance.
Messrs. Deshler Stapler of the Ilowe Ma
chine have an attachment which sells for $1.50,
that binds straight or on scollops or any kind of
material without change of adjustment ; snakes
piping, both single and double, and with other
attachments which . arc for solo by this firm the
Howe Machine does ruffling and all other kinds
of fancy work in a manner unsurpassed by any
other machine. The number of Machines sold
by this firm in the past year is GIS, 57 of which
were Bold during the past three weeks. This Is
retry good evidence of its popularity. All the
hoes on exhibition at thi; Fair were made on
he glias Howe Machine.
The receipts at the Fair, ymtcrday, were $11d23,
taking $3183 for the tiret two days.
In connection with the map of the city of Allen-

The Elliptic Lock-stitch Sewing Machine is
now on exhibition, under the charge of D. E. Rice,
the agent. The cheap machines of this make do
equally as good work as the hlgh-prlced oues, al
though the latter are equal to the best of other
makes. The stitch Is beautiful, the same on both
sides and runs from heavy to light work with
change of needle and thread only. 'I he cording
and quilting done on this machine Is beautiful and
win the admiration of all who see it.,

made and rue in the scam Is the simplest' manner.
The work of ruining, putting in cord welt and
sewing on the band at the same time Is truly a
revolution In the work of machines, and while It
calls forth exclamations of wonder, the operation
Is so simple that It can be done by. any

and wealth of our farming population. In this
department the farmer who desires to test the
experiences of his fellow farmers eon see much
that is interesting and instructive.
The Department which exhibits the skill of the

The attendance to-day is Immense, fully up to
expectations and the railroads have been taxed to
their utmost capacity. The City Band is In at

'FRIDAY.
The cool' weather has not interfered with the at
tendanee to-day and there has been a very encini ,
aging crowd present. The Lehigh County Agri
cultural Society has cause to congratulate itself
upon the immense success of their exhibition finan
cially and upon the good it has done to the farm
ing Interests and the evidnat Improvement they
have caused to be made in
. the . working of the
farm.
. There 15, then, a proadie and cans°, too, for
gratitude in the " Fairs," at which, in them; mel
low September days, the farmers of the land, with
their wives and daughters In holiday attire, arc
everywhere assembling.
They tell of a 'year of bounty, of affluent har
vests and abundant dividends to labor and capital,
and testify that the men of rough hands who till
this good land of ours are adva n cing to their Just
rank by virtue of Intrinsic character, as well as
of the results of their toll.
Surely, In these times of corruption and the de
cay of integrity and worth In so many walks of
life, we may well rejoice that among tho millions
who plow and sow and reap—theyeomanry of the
nationthe homely virtues of Industry, integrity,
.and a right use of opportunities, arts finding

EThe Fair closed Friday with a large crowd In
attendance, such a one its would have pleased the
managers of any other County Fair on their larg
est day. The Interest manifested in the races was
very great and the only thing wanted to make
them a grand success-was a larger and better con
ditioned track. AVhether It was Improved by

At the close of the Fair a great part of the fruit
on exhibition was sold to the visitors and there
was a great rush to secure the prlie apples, pears
awl grapes, hut there was not enough to satisfy
the cravings of the people. The great demand for
fruit and the exorbitant prices paid afford the best
evidence that a first-class fruit store, attractive In
appearance and well stocked, would pay well In
Allentown, and we hope the ready sale which the
fruit obtained at the Fair will Induce some one In
this vicinity to enter largely Into its culture. Even
cakes and Jellies were sold at a good price and Mr.
Cole, the wooden and willow-ware dealer, drove a
good trade In disposing of his baskets.

A DEMOCRATIC MEETING
Mr. Editor:—Presuming that you aro liberal
enough to publish the political news of both parties
I have taken It upon myself to Inform you that a
mass meeting of the true Democracy was held at
the house of Mr. Meyers, In Salisbury township,
last evening. The meeting was remarkable for
the unanimity of feeling and the good order which
prevailed. Thomas B. Metzger, Esq., and John
Thomas were the speakers, and while the attend
ance was not so large as I have seen at some meet
logs—there being only eleven Democrats present
—lt was pleasing to see three Republicans and a
number of minors listening to the voice of the New
Departure, although the Republicans did seem in
clined to laugh.wlth derision at the arguments of
the orators. This meeting Is an ather evidence that
the Democrats of Lehigh county aro rallying
around their standard-bearers and It is believed in
well informed circles that McCandless and Cooper
will run the majority up In this county from 141
to 950: With a gain of 300 over Acker'a majority
the Democratic press of the county will have some
.thing to crow over. SlNlqti PURE.
' CASHIER ELECTED.—JOIIII F. Weida, Esq.,
of this city this morning was elected cashier of the
Macungie Savings Dank, vice Wm. C. Llchten-
walner, Esq., resigned on account of 111 health.
Mr. Weida la a gentleman well qualified to fill the
position, polite and obliging, and will give gene
ral satisfaction to those having huffiness to trans
act with the institution.
