A PREMIUM FOIL GOOD SCROLARBDIP.—At the meeting of the Allen Rifles, held last, evening. the following resolution was adopted, which will, we believe, cause the scholars In our public school, to make greater efforts to pass good examination : Resolved, That the company present a library certificate, entitling the holder to the free use 01 the Circulating Library for one year, to the scholar In each of the public schools of the city passing the best examination at the next general exam in ation, the certillgue to ha issued upon the recom mendation or the City Buperintcodeut.

Great praise Is due to Mr. Michael Keighran, the engineer, for the speedy manner in which he brought his engine to o stand still. The blame rests entirely with the General, who urged Ills horse forward, although flagged b 3 the L. S.; S. conductor and signalled by the engi. neer.

THE FIRE EDN lisDAy. --The origin of the lire on (lull St. Wednesday afternoon Is not defi nitely known. Various theories and rumors of its cause are. afloat. Some people believe that the barns were set on fire Intentionally, while others believe that It was accidentally fired by some boys who were attempting to steal rabbits out of Mr. ‘Vatmer's barn. It Is also reported that whit some men were unloading straw at the born tha It was Ignited by a cigar that one of the men wa smoking. But Mr. Wleand, who was present a the thne the straw was being put in the barn de es this and positively states that nose of the tout were smoking In or near the building. Another supposition is that some person passing down Hall street carelessly threw his stump of cigar between the two barns and thus caused the conflagration. Mr. 11 agner's barn was a frame structure, lfox 30 feet, and was occupied by J. F. Wleand. Mr. Wagner's loss on the barn and the few things he had stored In it Is estimated at about *350. Sir. Wicand estimates his loss.at $7O. Michael Eberhardt's barn was a stone building 40x30 feet, and contained tire or six tons of tiny, a load of straw, corn.slieller, (kilning-mill, a rock• away wagon, two hogs and numerous small aiti cies• Ile estimates his loss on the contents at. $lOOO, and the loss On the barn at another thous ' at least. There was no insurance on either building Mille the barns on Hail street were burning yesterday na alarm was raised that the barn of John Kramer further down the street was on fire. It was leickly extinguished and no damage war A spatk from the burning tarns llew Into the Exchange I on Seventh street, and set the carpet on fire. It was put out without raising an ilium, though soma of the inmates were some. what scared. One of the lady boarders became so excited that she grabbed her sewing machine and made ua effort to carry It down stairs. While w lady was looking at the lire on Ilaq street. a spark 'gutted her clothing, which little event created quite a commotion. The names were soon smothered by some bystanders. A BEAUTIFUL STORE — OPENING OUTII S.: KENN'S New; ESTAIILISIIMENT.—Mcsers. Guth & Kern, well-known and popular dry goods mer chants, have removed their store next door, to the building formerly occupied by Schreiber Bros., and which was burned out lust summer: The store room has been for some Vine undergoing t,eslye and complete alterations and is now one of the hand,omest In this part of the State. The castings for the iron work were furnished . by Wm. F. Musser & Co., and, of course, are of the same character as all the work that has given that ce tsblishment such an excellent reputation. The carpenter work was done by Henry Wuchter and the taste "mid line workmanship displayed is a handsome card for that gentleman. The shelves are white, relieved by chestnut moulding, and the e lune style distinguishes the mounters, the desig - t4 of whi7li are exquisite, handsome paneling, re. Hewed at equal distances by plain thouch rich columns, formed of the chestnut moulding, and making a pretty contrast. The appearance of - - the carpenter work owes Its beauty somewhat to the excellent job of painting which was done by M. S. Weidner, a gentleman noted for hia care and skill in finishing a building. The papering did not afford a very extended field for the dis Play of tki,l, but Wellington Snyder has made the most of it and given the proprietors a piece of work that Is much admired. The windows arc lighted by nfleetora front above find at shott distances between the coulters heavy bronzed pendants end out their arum of light and give the store almost the advantages of daylight after the shades of night have darkened the •utside world. For the excellent manner In which the gas arrange ments have been put up Guth & Kern, and their. patrons too, are Indebted to the superior skill and Judgment of fireball & Parton. The mammoth plate-glass which attract the Involuntary gaze of pabeersthy was furukhed by M. 8. I oung & Co., gentlemen who are always rea , ty to assist our mer chants lu erecting new and handsome !route. When we visited this palatial establishment, yesterday, all connected with the store were busily engaged In arranging goods and waking one?. touters at the same time, a feat that we pronounce most difficult, and yet so obliging end agreeable are the maul nets of these gentlemen that every. dy a wants were supplied so nicely that oho Ight h ice !Twig hied they had always, been In their new store. On the upper side the shelves are tilled, In front, with pretty handkerchiefs, ele gant laces, hosiery, gloves, and a general assort went of white goods, the rear running Into boys , and tneu'd wear. Upon the opposite side a to-ty assortment of dress goods Is shelved, running In grade from the fittest fabrics to the least cooly, while In the rear portion of, the lower side can he sera, n full stork of domestics. Guth k Kern will now have a better opportUnlty to meet the In ereatlng demands of their gron lug trade and will be better enabled to keep what they desire to—the nnest snick of dry goods In the city. We congrat ulate the firm upon this evident Owl of their pros perky and upon their temple of beauty which they hare added to the attractions of our city. .

CONBOLIDATIONB.—The gobbling up of the Reading Railroad by the Pennsylvania Central Is still talked about', though we believe the Reading Is too big a fish for the Pennsylvania's net at present. It Is probably ot.ly a question of time, however. The Reading is at present attending to all ,the minor roads and after it has finished up the work it would probably be still better game for Mr. Scott. No 000 can predict the probable end of railroad consolidations nor the effect they will have upon the politics and prosperity of the country: The Pennsylvania has succeeded In ac complishing everything it has set its heart upon doing and there seems to be no Bruit to its power of conquest. The Reading Company follows the example of Its giant competitor in this State, and Is, too, becoming a power in the land, but Raceme impossible that It will ever become powerful enough to resist the ravenous appetite of the Penn sylvania Central when the latter is ready to eat It. Tnt POWER OF THE 0 UNTRY PittCSS.—ln referring editorially to the meeting of the State Editorial Association, at Harrisburg, on Thursday the Philadelphia Press says :—" It is doubtful If the country press Is conscious of the power It possesses, and of Its supremacy, were It exercised. Local Journalism Is one of the features of our time. In the last twenty years there has been a rapid decentralization of the thought of the coun try press. Not ore or two great newspapers of universal circulation now dictate the opinions of the people and the policy of political parties. The Influence they once exerted Is spilt intoa thousand fragments, and wielded by as many hands. United and comprehensive action on the part of those who control the rural Journals would revolution ize the country, and solve every problem, social and political, that now distracts the land. We are glad to note the rapid growth of these edito rial organizations, which promise so well for the future of the whole people. Their organized In fluence will carry everything before it. Trim following is the address delivered by President Webster, of the Lehigh Zinc Company, at Friedensville, previous to the christening of the new engine on, Friday last:— This beautiful and fertile valley, In Its northeast and southwest course, some 7 miles long by 2 tulles wide, Is bounded on either side by ridges of eyen hie rock, and levelled with magueslan limestone and clay, watered by numerous mountain springs, and drained through its central surface to the Le high, by the brook called, by Its early Indian pos sesssors, "Simeon.' It was brought under culti vation by a few families of original settlers. In creasing in fertility IL has remained with them through succeeding generations, and the present honored names of the valley date back to its first settlement. Growlng knowledge and iruprovem, nt In agriculture, has enabled the sons to gain, from divisions of the farms, as touch as the siresgained Iron% the whole. The great highway from North ern Pennsylvania to Philadelphia crossed the Val lev,and its central village was called Friedensville, village of peace, and so In peaceful beauty It re mained until the year 1847,when on the spot where tee DOW stand, a barren unproductive outcrop was submitted to a learned, studious man, who with satchel and hammer, was by chance passing this way, on a leisure Saturday's stroll of exploration. This man, with trained and observing eyes, our hocored guest to-day, who allows himself no title other than Mr. William Theodore Roepper, exam. Toed and declared it calamine,nnd then commencd the history which we now review. At that time the methods of Its uses were un known In this country. Only In Sussex county, N. J., were zinc ores known to exist, and there in a then undeveloped State. After the usual spas moil° movements, consequent upon the discovery of mineral treasures, several citizens of New York united no a company to work the ores, and In their nehalf in the year 1853 works for manufacturing white oxide of zinc, were erected in Bethlehem, under the direction of Mr. Samuel Wetherill, with furnaces and process of his own Invention. In 1859 works for manufacturing metallic zinc by the Belgian method were erected by Mr. Joseph Wharton, this being the Scat introduction of that art, in any form, Into this country. In 1865 the company erected a rolling mill for sheet zinc, it being the first introduction of that art Into this country; and all these several works have con tinued in unremitted activity to this day, their ea: ;tacky being : fur oxyd of zinc,3,ooo tons peryear; for metallic zinc, 3,600 tons per year.; for sheet zinc, 3,000 casks per year,respectively—about one half the annual consumption of the country, and of known superior qualities, owing to the unusual purity of our ores. The mines have been worked to meet the demands of the several manufactories, amounting In some single years to 1,700 tons, and, In the aggregate, to 300.000 tons of ore, including rich bit ode, which has been devtioped iu the prcg rots of mining. At a very early day, and at shallow depth, water was encountered and overborne by a small pump worked by a single horse power • followed by a 0 inkey pump which is now In use power; dressing ores. Next came a Burton's engine of 30-horse power, followed, In 1803, by a Curtiss engine of 100-horse power, working a series of centrifugal pumps which found their limit at a depth of 65 feet, with 1,590 gallons of water per minute. At this time the Company decided to make more lasting pro vision for controlling the water by establishing power to raise 4,000 gallons per minute from It depth of 150 feet, if so touch should come, and, to tale end, they erected and started In 1865 an en gine of 32. inch cylinder and 9 feet stroke, working two 22. inch lifting pumps, to which a third 22-inch lift was f 001) added, and the shaft carried• down to 122 feet in 1866, when It encountered, and, with 17 strokes per minute, raised 5,600 gallons ; and there found the Ilin It of Its capacity, though as• sirted by the Curtiss engine and centrifugal pumps, throwing at that depth 1,000 gallon , . ; s and by a " Bull" engine of 50-inch cylinder and 10. feet stroke, erected at ilarttuan mine 1805 and throw ing 1,100 gallons from 144 feet depth, and by an engine of 20. horse power at Correll mine, all to gether raising 8,000 gallons per minute. • There repeated almost unintermitted efforts had taxed the resources and endurance of the Company near to exhaustion, and they were called to decide whether to prepare for further mastery,or to work out all ores above water level, and when a few years thus sustained should pass, to abandon the mines and as a consequence, the works, as no other ores accessible to us were known within reach of living transportation. A careful survey and mea-urement of this ,Ueberrothinlue showed 23,000 square feet of out - .under foot; borings In the open pit went down 75 feet in ore—still solid below. A liberal estimate for this ore, In place, 1;t 12 cubic feet to a ton, and sinking 10 feet over the whole arca of this litho; alone, will supply the works at their max itntun for one year. We can with truth add that the maintenance of an industry which has, at times, carried 700 names on Its monthly pay roll representing, perhaps, four times t hat number; and the responsibility of wisely hanilling and developing this gift of nature en trusted to our management, entered fully into the consideration. Our engineer, Mr. John West, had already ma tured a plan of engine, pumps and shaft for vale ' Mg 12,000 gallons per minute from 300 feet depth, and in December, 1868, the Company contracted with Messrs. Merrick, of Philadelphia, for this new engine, and a year later with Messrs. 1. P. uorris A; Co. for the pumps, boilers and mount ings. The timber for shaft and pump rods was contracted for in Georgia. Sinking the shaft com menced when the contract for engine was made, in December, 1808. The bob wall of solid masonry, 0 feet thick, was commenced on a plat of solid rock, 114 feet below the surface ; the foundation for the engine Is 32 feet deep below the bed plate; the evlinder Is 110 Inches in diameter estimated nt 1,600 horse power. Thototal weight of engine, including girders, is 1,313,330 pounds, equalto 057 act tons, without foundation bolts and plates. Twenty-six pieces weigh each over 7 tons—the heaviest being the four walking beams, each weighing 48,000 p nods. This 1101180 was roofed Dee. 20, 1870,nnd the first piece of machinery, one of the four beam girders, was raised to its place on top of the bob wall on the 30th of December, 1870—one year ago. The necessity for going to work without delay has allowed us no Until to decorate. We present bare walls, and engine without Jacket; but they may be the more acceptable to your inspection as . showing construction. We start with two plunger pumps of 20 inch diameter, set In cisterns 87 feet down the Shaft, one discharging Into the edit 25 feet below the surfac.• ; the ot her discharging. into tanks on the surface for condenser and boilers. Below these, two lifting pumps (hung in wire ropes) work to the bottom, 127 feet below thecol lar of the shaft, or 122 lea below the old zero point, or 75 feet below the level of Saucon Creek, which crosses the road one-half milesouth. These pumps will throw 735 gallons per stroke—the en gine can work comfortably at 12 strokes per min ute, and the power is more than adequate, and the dimensions of the shaft (30)x2135 feet In the clear) ample for doubling this number of pumps, and carrying all to a depth of '3OO feet, or 178 feet below the present bottom of the mines,with power .still In reserve for what may be required below. From the beginning, this work has been sus.' rtnined by our Board of Directors with unfaltering determination and courage, deserving the warm est thanks of all in any way Interested. And now the; beg, in public, to make grateful acknowledge ment to Mr. John West for the skill with which be planned the whole, and the fidelity with which he executed it from lle lowest foundation stone to the chimney coping. Mr. West will now open the steam valves, and when the engine success fully passes cooties we will christen her from the upper floor and run for half an hour ; then stopto give opportunity to any who desire toexamlne the shaft, which Is light and dry. While running,we Invite you to partake of such cold collation as our 'limited time for preparation has permitted .as. to provide, with thanks for your presence today to cheer na on our way TIIEO. M.

RUNAWAY.—A. horse_belonging to Crader's livery stable created an excitement Friday last, by running down Hamilton Street at a fearful speed. He tried to turn down Sixth to the livery stable, but In doing so ran into the American Ho tel porch and was thrown upon the slate pave. anent. The horse was considerably Injured, having received a cut le the breast to the bone and in his left hind leg. It appears the horse was In charge of Messrs.

THE PARADE.—True to the patriotism of the Order Camps 115, P. 0. B. of A., Is making ' strenuous efforts to have Washington's Birthday celebrated in a proper spirit. For this purpose the Camp has been engaged for some time past in making arrangements for a parade In this city on the 22d of February. From advices received, thus far, It is certain that Camps 63 and 115 of Allentown, 109 of Blatington and 152 of Catasau qua, and the Senior and Junior Orders of Ameri can illechanicsof this city will participate. Camp 115 expects to be presented with a flag by the ladies of the First Ward. From what we know of the liberality and public spirit of the ladies of that eection of our city, we believe that the flag will reflect credit upon the donors and give Joy to the hearts of the Sons. ATTEMPTED OUTRAGE.—OD Sunday even ing the residents in the vicinity of Sixth and Turner streets were startled by the shrieking of a female and the cry of murder. In a few minutes the street was all excitement. Running to the spot whence the cries Issued a girl was discovered In a great state of excitement. A man ran away from, the spot and up Church alley. Tilghman Schrerer followed him, and commanded him to stop. He failed to do so and Schrerer fired at him, when he halted and re— turned, and gave his name as Mat 'Leisen— ring. The girl gave the name of Ziegler. She said :she was walking down Turner street and when opposite a private alley running between Bush's and Hendricks', the man rushed up to her, put his band over her mouth and dragged her into the alley. She struggled to free herself and suc— ceeded la giving the alarm, and was rescued from a vile outrage. Leisenring is an employee of the News office. Ile has not yet been arrested. Ft REAce.IDENTs.—In going down the Ham. Ilton street hill with the fire apparatus it is cus tomary to let the rope drag behind and the fire men, by holding on to it, aro enabled to check the speed of the machine. The America boys used the usual precaution in going to the fire, on Sat urday evening, but when nearing Fourth street, ono ebbs of the tongue straps broke, which drew the carriage to ono aide and the apparatus getting beyond the control of those behind, dashed down the bil I with fearful velocity and ran over a pile of gas pipes and Into the feuce'of the gas works. Two panels of the fence were torn down and Joel Wicadd and Clinton Heist, who were running the tongue., were considerably injured. Heist was taken borne. His injuries were principally bruiser about the legs. Wleand was badly bruised about the rave and internally.

E., from that placo to Catasauqua, fell off the train near L inden street, this city, and bad his legs hor ribly inecrated by the wheels passing over them. De was carried to the residence of Charles Duca mus, No. 228 North Front street, where Dr. 8. 8_ .Apple, assisted by Dr. Fegley, rendered every as sistance In their power, but notwithstanding their efforts the on fortunate boy expired at three o'clock, on Sun day morning.

INCENDIARISM. FIRE IN THE FIRST WARD On Saturday night, about twenty minutes of twelves, names were discovered Issuing forth from a frame stable owned by George W. Hoffman, In the rear of hie brewery, on the corner of Couth and Wood streets. The stable contain ed nothing valuable, except the Columbia's wagon- It was totally destroyed. There was no insurance upon the amble. Henry Pfeiffer's pig pen, adjoining, was also consumed, together with the occupants, two in number. The Colnmb:a did not gut into service on account of scarcity of hose, but the Al len and Good Will were able tosave theaurround. leg property. Three brick houses belonging to Joseph Downing, opposite the stable, were scorched, but the steamers saved them from burrs leg Several theories /CI regard to the origin of the lire are afloat. Someone observed three men loit ering around In the vicinity of the stable previous, to the fire and it Is supposed they applied the. match. A physician says he believes tho pigs got Into a fight and In the noldetof the fray their teeth came In contact, struck fire and fired the stable. If the latter supposition is correct the pigs have- received a just punishment., and it is a pity other Incendiaries could not share tint same fate. After the Ore the adherents of the Hibernia and: Allen indulged In a fight, fence palloge being the• principal weapons. The result was several smashed noses, broken beads, ate., which gave. t . considerable trouble to Dr. Apple to repair. During the fire some vllialustut the hose of thet Liberty Hose Company..

Dr.ingher, on Ball's farm In Saucon township, and presented an order slune, by Mr. Ball for 585. Trumbore represented him self as a partner of Eekspellen, of the Nftlll-1011 House, Allentown,and that as one of their horses was sick he was compelled to walk over. He then said that Ball wanted the money bodly,because , On account of the death of the wife of the Cashier of the Allentown Bank, Ile was unable to draw his money deposited there. Brougher, thinking 68,010 18 91,160 19 the order and the representations of Trutnbore were genuine, gave him the money. On the fol: lowing Saturday Trumbore called the farm again to obtain enough money to make It an even $lOO or $2OO, but Mr. Draugher being absent his wife refused to advance the money. Mr. Ball after wards called at the farm and was greatly sur prised upon being Informed of the action of Truro• bore, as be had nothing to do with that gentleman and the order was pronounced n forgery. Mr. Ball and Draugher, too, would like to saw Trtont.ore, but the latter Individualhas evidently left for p t its unknown. Trumbore Is the same person who li.ts been do I"g a sharp business at the expense of Ti Stotler, the carriage maker. OPTICIAN,—Dr. Morriz Bernhard has open ed at the American Hotel, this city, where he will remain for a short time. We have known the Doctor personally for six or seven years and we are confident that all who entrust their cases to him will find him skillful, competent and a perfect gentleman. In his advertisement is another col- Me. the Doctor sets forth fully what he proposes to do and what he has done. Ile could produce testimonials from the best people In this country sufficient in number to till this entire sheet, but It suffices his purpose to print but a few. The Doc tor is not an ordinary spectacle Mtn, but a skill.' ful optician, one who has passed through the rigid and thorough training of a Berlin University and afterwards, by extensive practice and through the assistance of his father, perfected himself In his difficult art. Instead of giving out a lot of spectacles for a person to select from, he first measures the eye, exaffilnes all Its imperfections and then manufactures the spectacles by his won derful machinery so that they meet all the require ments of the eye. Persona a 11l Idled with imperfect vision should lose no Iliac In giving him a trial. Those who have never been able to have their eyi a suited before, have tried Dr. Bernhard and have gone away pleased. When he wa.s in v orristown he did a heavy business alai received the endorse ment of the leading physicians and scluotilic men of the place, and we are sure he will give Oceanic satisfaction here: • The Republican Conr•eutiou The Lehigh County Republican Conventim opened its sessions at quarter before clever o'clock, on Saturday morning.
