The gasometer is completed, the columns are all up and the top wheels will be put 1n their places as soon as the weather will permit. The quantity of water so far pumped Into the gas ometer reservoir is ten feet. An additional ten feet Is still needed. The pumping has been dis continued, owing to a lack of sufficient water lu the pond alongside of the new works and Into which the exhaust of the Glen Works is run. When the Works stopped, In consequence of the late nceldent,there was incidentally a loss of Water to the pond and that which was there was soon reduced in quantity by the pumping process. The qqattlity was so small to-day that theperch in the pond could be picked up by hand where the ice was broken, and as the boys in that neighborhood seemed to have a cultivated taste for perch, they took large numbers of them out, carrylagthem off In palls. After a while the steam from the Glen Works again reached the pond and warmed a part of the water into which partletilar part the half o,lvering perch SWATH.

It Is also reported that other tracts have beeu off., ed, and will no doubt be purchased, Icing south of the Mine 11111. The three collieries belonging to Messrs. Kend- rick .. Co., c inlirating the Bt. Clair Shaft on the Carey & Bart property, Indian Run, at Shenan doah, and the Keystone, nt Ashland, it is rumored, have alto been purchased. The company owns the lands on which the last two collieries aro In aated. The terms on which they were purchased we have not understood. We do not believe that the Land Company proposes entering Into the min ing business, but presume they will make the im provements required, and lease them to parties who will mile the coal and deliver It into the ears of the Compaq at the breakers. Those misers who desire to form Co-operative Companies, by associating together, can, under such a policy, take collieries and work on the co operative system. In this way the system of co operation in mining can be tried in this region.

RAILROAD COLLISION.—TIIO Bethlehem Times gives this account of the accident on Thurs day :—Up paeseoger train No. 2, Lehigh Valley Railroad, which left hero at 10.05 yesterday morn ing, collided with a coal train above Mud Run, Lucerne county, about noon. The particulars as they were given us arc as follows The coal train from Fairview lays off ou the siding at Mud Run to allow the No. 2 passenger train to pass. Yes terday, while on the passage from Hickory Run to Mud Run, a hook came out of a coal car, and the engineer, Ending that the delay that would he caused by thle accident would prevent him from making the pas s ing° point,he cut the engine loose, took a flagman along and ran to Mud un,whcrc he left the flagman with Instructions tb stop the passenger train and hold it until he would bring the coal train and then went back after his train. The passenger train coming along, the flagman, It Is said, stopped It and told the engineer thereof that the coal train was lying at Hickory Ruu win ter tank, and that, upon approaching that ho should run slowly. Thereupon the train pulled out, as the coal train had already done, both be ing then on the same track, going In opposite dl rations. At a reversed or double curve,about miles above Mud Run, Just as they were coming round the Inner curve, the two trains met and col lided. The passenger train, It Is mild being run very cautiously, about six miles an hour, and the coal train, (the engineer feeling confident that. the passenger train was laying off for hint at Mud Run) was running at the rate of about 20 when an hour. Tho baggage and express cars were very badly wrecked, and the platforms of the pas senger cars were stove In. Many of the coal cars wore thrown off the track and Wrecked, and both the engines were badly, though not totally-,wreck ed. Joo. Trucks, a brakeman, was caught be tween the bumpers of the baggage and express care, and so badly Injured that ho died while on the care on his way to this place. Excepting a few slight bruises received by ono or two, no others were Injured. The inns to the company will be very Leavy, probably reathlug upwards of SGO,OOO. TOE horses or the Allen Steam Fire Engine Company will soon be suitably accommodated in the rear of the engine house, where the company Is having a commodious stable bent. PROTHONOTARY JAm'n•B.

Mr. Colt has boon informed that if he does not prOperly and promptly respond, such action will be taken as Is deemed necessary and legal under the circumstances and the cost charged to him. SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—On Saturday morn ing, James McAllister, an express boy, of Cata sauqua, wishing to go over to the Lehigh Valley Depot to meet the train due there at 10:27, en deavored to jump upon one of the furnace trains of the Crane Iron Company,and In doing so slipped and fell, the wheels of the cars crushing both his feet. Surgical aid was called in, when It was found necessary to amputate his feet. The suf ferer, at last advices, was doing well. RELIGIOUS ISIATTEREL—The services both morning and evening, Sunday, in nearly all the churches were strictly appropriate to the last Sun day In Advent, which yesterday was. 'Rev. S. G.

We congratulate the troupe on Its good caste. READY FOR ME HOLIDAYS.—WO take pleasure In calling attention to the tine stock of watches, clocks, jewelry and silverware, at G. 8. Massey's, llAmilton street, opposite the German Reformed Church. Mr. Massey has a wide repu tation among the old families of Lehigh county for hls Integrity and square business dealing, which has gained the confidence of those who do not consider themselves competent to judge of the excellence of a watch, the genuineness of a jewel or a piece of gold. It is pleasant to deal at an establishment where ono knows that the repre sentations of the salesmen can be relied upon,and we suppose this accounts for Mr. Massey's im mense trade. WORKS or ART.—The handsome line of dia monds, pearls, amethysts, and other precious stones, at Keller Bros., 737 Hamilton street, com mands the unbounded admiration of every visitor to that eAabllshrnent. In the large cities they have such establishments as Tiffany's, Ball,Black & Co.'s, Bailey's, Caldwell's etc., but aside from these there are few that equal that of Keller Bros. In the store of the latter every line is well repre sented and through the exquisite taste of these gentlemen they select only the most beautiful de signs, giving purchasers the cream of all that Is manufactured to select from. No one can, there fore, go away from their store without being thor oughly satisfied. The beauty and extentiveness of their stock have always been a subject of favor able public criticism, but this year they exceed all their former efforts to supply all the desires o their patrons.

The Morning Glory lu his cellar had become passe ; Its glory-ousness had departed; he thereforc—gloryidg in his work—commenced to 'improve it. One idea entailed another until at last he had a multiplicity of Ideas out of which was borne the improved plan fur heating, which is the subject of this article. Having divested his Morning Glory of everything but the base and the grate—the latter is 21 inches in diameter—he ad vanced upon the base metal, lead pencil In hand, and conceived a perfect plan which he produced on paper. Laßue's down draft was draws on. The plan passed Into the hands of Mr. Rhoda, of thlecity, who son turned out the big stove, not withstanding the cold weather. Mr. Grles' house, 44 North Eighth street, is cow delightfully heated with the improved heater. The quantity of coal consumed,even during the coldest weather we have had so far, has been noticeably small. The cause of this is that the fire can be kept up very steadily and the combustion of the coal takes place also, very steadily and Much snore slowly than Mother heaters, while a greater and steadier heat, from a given quantity of fuel, evidently is obtainable with this heater than with others. The principal dis tinguishing characteristic of this heater Is the con sumption of the gas from the coal. This is econ omy. Increased heat Is obtained. When the gas Is allowed to escape up the chimney there ICI fl loss.

He Intended to haul some wood from a neighboring grove, for which purpose hr hired a two horse team. When he had loaded the wagon be took his seat on the top of the wood to drive home. Upon a sudden the horses tilled and off they went, throwing him and the wood off, h.- Juring one of his legs. The horses made their way through the village, making a complete wreck of the wagon before they were stopped. Mr. La u denschlaeger was immediately brought home,when Drs. F. J. Slough and 11. J.

' COURT OF' SUM/NEL—Tile Commonwea vs. Perri , Weaver came upon a motion to relieve the defendant from payment of costs In a case In itiated before Squire 111 lieges, of Shimersvllle. Defendant was charged with having committed an 'assault ou one lieldlebath. Coutuiellor Stiles ex plained that Squire Degas had acted Improperly; had sworn the ease was settled. The Court—lf this Is true he ought to be lin peached Counsellor Albright—Squire llllieges is a very re spectable young man: Sfltes—But it seems he has not had a very large experience. Explanation was made that'Squlre ❑llieges had improperlyappeared before the Grand Jury Its The Court—The Grand Jury had no right to know that this case was settled. The Grand Jury cannot of their own motion calla witness before them. They must communicate with the District Attorney or the Court. The question now is whether an innocent man shall be made to pay costs. Without the teatime's:Y . of Squire Ilillegas the Grand Jury would hate returned a true bill. This case possesses some Improper surroundings. Grand Juries are not higher than, but subject to, the law. This prosecutor certainly cannot be made to pay these costs without a sentence to that effect. The question now comes lu can the Court conscientiously sentence him to do 60 T Milo—What I desire In this case Is that the findings shall be stricken from the records of this• Court; and to show that there was Improper con duct on the part of the Grand Jury. Altsrtght—Lct :the prosecutor go without day. As to the Squire, I have no connection with bliss, but I should regret If he was 'severely censured. From what I know of the young mats I know he never Intended to do It wilfully. Ile because Jus - tice of the Peace last Fall. Court—lt is, of course, Improper to censure a coon without a hearing. Bfiles —llO Is a very young man. I don't desire particularly to have him censured. The Court thou took the papers.

TIIETILIIIUNE, through trusted corres pondents scat lotted at all points In Europe where great movements are In progress or faun Beni, 011112: to present a complete and Instructive 17110- oramv of events on that continent, and to mirror the prolonged struggle between middle-age Feud alism and Ecclesiasticism on the one hand and Nineteenth-Century skepticism and secularism on the other. Recognizing a Divine Providence In all that proceeds and Is, it looks hopefully on the great conflict as destined (like our own recent convulsion) to evolve from strife, dittaster,.and seeming chaos, a fairer and happier future for the tolling masses of mankind. In our own country, a war upon corruption and rascality ill office has been Inaugurated in our City, whereby the government of our State has been revolutionized through an initial triumph of Reform which surpasses the most sanguine anticipations. It is morally certain that the movement thus inaugurated cannot, In its pro gress, be circumscribed to any locality or any party, but that its purifying Influence le destined to be felt In every part of the Union, rebuking venality, exposing robbery,wresting power from politicians by trade, and confiding It in those worthiestand fittest to wield it. To this benefi cent and vitally needed Reform, TIM TninuNE will devote Its best energies, regardless of per sonal interests or party predilections,esteetning the choice of honest and faithful men to office as of all New Departures the most essential and au spicious. The virtual surrender by the Democratic party of Its hostility to Equal Rights regardless ((Color has divested our current polities of half their by gone intensity. However parties may hence forth rise or fail, It is clear that the fundamental principles whim* have hitherto honorably dis tinguished the Republicans are henceforth to be regarded as practically accepted by the. whole country. The right of every man to his own Mutts and slnews—the equality of all citizens be fore the law—the inability of a State to enslave any portion of Its people—the duty of the Union to guarantee to every citizen the full enjoyment of his liberty until he forfeits it by crime—such are the broad and Ilrm foundations of our Na -1 tional edifice; and palsied be the hand which shall seek to displace them! Though not yet twenty years 0111,•the Republican party is com pleted the noble fabric of Emancipation,and may fairly stivolce thereon the sternest Judgment of Man and the benignant smile of God.
