We present the rulesadopted In another pa. tof to-day's paper. We think they will meta lally Improve the workings of our party ma chinery, prevent the strife and contentions which .rove annually characterized the old mode of mak ing city nom:nations and give us better men fL r our standard bearers than we have some times •.eretofore had. The rule which provides fOr ward nominations to not to take effect until next year. It greatly implitles the mode of matting these nominations, mil we believe will • work well. We commend •specially the rule which makes the City Execo ,lve Committee a contiuuous body. Hatt of the committee aro always experienced and acquainted with the duties required of them. Tim non.observnnce of Lent is not regard( d as a sin, but It cannot be looked upon otherwise than as an Impropriety upon the part of those who belong to churches which observe the season. In the Eplsecnial and Catholic churches the observ ance of Lent is made one of the requirements and those who enter the church aro expected to com ply with the regul Alone governing Its members. This Is a free country where each denominatiou has a right to worshipOod in the manner In which It may nee fit, and should not be subject to news paper questidn. If first-class concerts are given hero during Lent'the denial Is so much the greater for the observers of Lent to bear, and If the ab• sense of these people from such entertainments will be any disappointment to the balance of the community so much the worse for them. It might -ot ben sin for persons to go to a hull when they had a corpse of it relative or dear friend in the , house, yet In some circles it would be considered a groat impropriety. Nearly every religious de nomination hos Its religious season, during which it Is Improper for the m.anbers to indulge in cer tain amusements, and no ono should enter the church unless they aro prepared to do what their church expects of them. If this rule would be re garded more generally there would bo fewer In consistent professors of christianity, and less croaking among those outside the church. THE CHARGE AGAINST LIARTRANFT.—The Norristown Gerald, published at the home of Gen- ' eral Ilartratift, says :—Ao effwt was made some' time since, by persons anxious to suppress an in veetigatlon Into the Evans fraud, to get State Treasurer Mackey and Auditor General Ilartrantt to " let up" on the parties likely to be punished by uu expose of the transaction. Failing la thin these parties threatened to trump up false accusations again"st Messrs. Mackey and Hartranft by getting come member of the Legislature to introduce reso lutions of inquiry Into their official conduct. Being unable to and any member of the Legislature mean enough to engage la the dirty work of traducing honest men, they have resorted to the newspapers outside of the State, and In the New York Tribal e of the 2Ehlt pu . dlsh resolutlon'a attacking the offi cial character of State Treasurer. Mickey and Auditor General Ilartranft, accusing them of ille gally using the money of the State. These resole. ;lons, It Is said, were taken to Ilarrlsburg on the 19.1 i of January by George 0. Evans and Dr.Palni., of medical notoriety They are trumped up now for the purpose of iniar rig flartran ft as a cendl• d 'Le for Governor, and to compel him and the State Treasurer tocancel the chtlin against Evans. Of course these officials court the closest scrutiny In their official conduct, knowing, with the public, that the charges or corruption are most unjust made.

Companies have been found and vaat sums. of money expended at various places along the Lackawanna, Susquehanna and Tuscarora with out finding any or the mines vaguely located by the early traditions of the country. That the dwellers In wigwams had a lc -..owledge of th :loca -1 Hon of black stones and metals long before their value had been taught them by the whites, there ;an be no doubt, but the knnaledge perished with the race that knew it.

E. Cnutton.—We Ba led a few Item from a history of the Allentown Mcthodi.t Episcopal Church compiled by a com mittee appointed by the authority of the Philadel phia Conference. The church was organized In 1843, In a building , then known as Free Ball, by the Rev. Newton Heston, and wan composed of six persona, one of whom, Miss Sarah Bailee, has remained in connection with the church to the present date, and at the advanced age of eighty years le still able to attend the public eervicea of the church. During the second year's pastorate of RIO. NeWton Ileetou, a church building was erected that remaltted until the present structure was erected In 1809. Since Its organic Won the church has been served by twenty.ono different pastors, eight of whom have since died. It has received Into church fellowship by profession six hundred and twenty.nluepereons,and about three hundred by letter. Some of these have been re- moved by death, oilers have been transferred to M. E. Churches In other places by letter, while a outnber remain as members of the church at the present writing. The fortunes of the church fluc tuated very much uutll the year 1868, when, under the pastorate of Rev. J. F. Crouch, It started for- ward with firm and steady progress which It has ever since mdlntalueci o to that today It Is equal In THE L_EHIGII REGISTER, ALLENTOWN. NVEDNEgDA.Y, - SlAliat 6,_1872. A.

AN AGED COUPLE.—Mr. Hugh Wl'Hamann and his wife, residing in Bushkin township, North. ampton county, are both over ninety years of age. Thu old Indy was 90 last July and the old gentle- Man saw his Will irthday during the present month. Mr. and Mrs. W. have lived In the mar. ried state for near seventy years. They are both enjoying good health and are Intelleetually as sound as Ir. their best days. Mrs. W. went shop plug to the store at Bushitill Centre last week, in company with one of her grand children. She se lected and purchased her goods, and when she had bought all she wanted tank up her basket, went outoind got Into the wagon with as much apparent ease ne n person only half as old. We verymuch doubt whether an older couple can be found any where.—Easton Argus. AN OLD OFFENDER.--On Friday, William Trumbouer, whose expeditious have been noted In these columns, went to Reuben Fisher's, at Lau ry's, and hired a horse and wagou,stating th ho wished to go a distance of flee miles to bring his grandmother and would return at three o'clock. Ile gave his name as William Trexler. Mr. Fisher afterwards ascertained that his true name was Trumbouer, and not returning at the proper time, coisiderable anxiety was felt: Accordingly parties started out in search of him and drove through three townships. They met Charles little, of Eleventh street,on the rood and Informed him what had occurred. When Mr. Male returned to Al— lentown he lodged Information with Chletof- Pollee Kleckner, who then wont out Eighth street and spied around for Trumbouer, but not finding him at Ills lather's, went down Turner to Church and up Church to an alley. There he saw whom he supposed to be Trumbouer and his wife fie accordingly went back and went to Sixth and Chew, where he faced the couple and, recogniz ing Trumbouer, took hire Into custody and lodged him In the loek•up. Later Reuben Fisher came to the city and ascertaining that his bird was caged, went before Alderman Stabler aud made oft hap, and Trumbouer was thereupon commit— ted to Jail in defaul' of 1000 bail. It appears that TrumhouLr drove Into the yard at Keriper's hot. I, no Seventh street, and, after h tally giving' directions to the boy for the care of the home, left without being recognized. There are six or richt other charges against this hull vidual, which, we suppose, will be preferred a roper time SCEILITIRILL COUNTY MOIIDER.—The `.allowing are additional particulars of the mur der nine mil.s from. Auburn :—1 oung Mr. Krea tner in posing his father's house thought ho would go In to see his parents: Upon entering ho found his motherlying on the bed with her skull fractured and otherwise badly bruised but still living, but she could not speak. The young man then started In search of his father, and found him about ono hundred yards from the house with his brains beaten out and frozen to the ground. Au alarm was raised, but no clue hiss been found as to who the murderers are up to this time. The murderers robbed tlie house and broke open all the chests and drawers, showing that their evident purpose was plunder. It is thought that Mr. Kreamer was running for assistance when he was overtaken and mur dered where he was found. Mr. and Mrs. Krea mer were each sixty year. old. Mr. Kreamer was n well-to•do farmer, and probably the assassins thought of getting considerable money. The old lady le in the hands of the physicians, who say it s impossible for her to recover, as her skull Is badly fractured. A ho ivy club, used to commit the blobdy deed was left behind, and Is now In the hands of the authorities. Jc.eph Brown and Isaac Hummel, both youn. men, were arrested Tuesday on suApiclon nearthe scene of the murder. Brown was at Pottsville Monday, and exchanged silver for paper money. Both were taken there last evening. Since their arrival Brown bus made partial confesilon, and aeknowledgeshaving accompanied Ilutnmel to the door of the house, and charges Hummel with hav ing committed the bloody deed.

FORGERY MID SUDDEN DEATIL —Pottstown was the scene of considerable excitement on Tues day evening, owing to the fact of a man named Isaac Longenecker, a resident of North Coventry, Chester county,dying suddenly at Shuler's Hotel, while In the custody of an officer, awaiting a hear ing on the charge of forgety. We have learned the following facts In the ease: Several months ago a promissory note of the amount of $lBOO, payable at the Montgomery Na tional Bunk of Nokietown, to the order of and bearing the endorsement of John C. Smith, of Pottstown, with the name of William M. Root, of Chester county, as drawer, was presented at the above luatltution and discounted. Several days subsequently, the amount named In the note, less the discount, purporting to have been signed by John C. Smith, was presented at the counter of the bank and paid. Some two weeks ago, a female stepped into the same bank and handed the teller promissory note calling for $lBOO, also having the name of Mr. Smith its endorser. The woman was told to call again, the officers having In the. meantime ascertained that the first note was , a forgery. The next day, Mr. Slinglulf, the cashier, received a dispatch from Philadelphia, Inquiring whether John o.Smith's check was good for $l6OO. Means were at once taken to arrest the party who had sent the telegram, but this was not then ac• complished. Lest Friday, a second dispatch sim ilar to the other one reached the bank from Poll udelphia, when the services of the poilm were again called into requisition, but without avail. A description of the man was received by OCacer Bechtel, of Pottstown, on the strength of which he arrested Isaac Longenecker, a plasterer by rm• eupatlon, residing opposite that town, la Chester county, about 3 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon. The Officer telegraphed Mr. Slingluff information of the arrest, who replied, that he should holdthe prisoner until his arrival in the evening train. About half past 4 o'clock, 1, mgeneeker obtained permission to visit the bails-house, at the hotel of Mr. Shuler, where the officer had him in charge. On his return to the hote:, and When ab.mt to enter the barroom from the hall Longenecker threw up his bands and reeling backward fell heavily to the floor. Several physicians were soon In attendance, but the man never spoke again, and lu half an hour he was a corpse. In pulling off ono of his boots a pocket book containing over $5OO was found, also blink notes and checks on the Na tional Union Bank of Reading, and several other banks. An inquest was held by D. F. Reinert, Esq., the jury rendering a verdict that deceased came to his death from apoplexy bronchi on by excitement. Deceased was aged about 45 years , , and leaves a wife and six children.—Readin g Timm .R.UTZTOWN ITS MEN AND MATTERS.— Under the caption of " Mtn and Hatters of Kulc• town, Pa.," a correspondent of Tho• Lutheran and Missionary, published at Philadelphia, writes an Interestlug letter, from which we take the follow Ing extracts : Kutztown Is located In one of the most beautiful and fertile valleys of Eastern Penn ylvaula. It Is the very centre of the Pennsylvania German lan• guage, people, customs and manner. Any man whole disposed to think disparagingly of these would tto well to make a TIBIt to this community and note the thrift, the energy, theabundance,the contentedness, and the substantial struight•for wardness of Its people, and his eyes will be eft c wally opened If he has any capacity to appreciate genuine FusAllity uud worth. Kutztown has n population of fifteen or eighteen hundred Inbabltanto,eurrounded ny a very thickly settled farming community. The East Pennsyl vania Railroad passes within three miles of It, and a branch road runs directly from Topton Station Into Kutztown, connecting with - all trains on the main line. Since the completion of the branch road a lively impetus has been given to the bust• ne=e of the town. Rev. G. F. Spleker Is pastor of the Lutheran coi.gregatlon here. His association with Prof. Jacobs In the translation of flutter's Theo ocy, and the frequent admirable translations of Ger man articles by him for your columns, have made his name and echolarly attainments familiar to your readers. Although the communlls so largely German, he preaches in the Engl ish lan guage regularly on Sunday evening, thereby car ing for the youug people who are more familiar with that toncue, and showirur that the orthodox doctrine can be proclaimed in English Just as well as In the inufler-.prochs. The only drawback to his euccenu and maluinese here Is the fact that the courrregatlou still worship In the old church, which Is also used by the Reforaned. Bro. Spleker, how ever, Is at work and has his plans all perfected for a separation of the congregations, when his p pie will erect a flue, commodious church for their exclusive use. - Here also we met R.'s.

This is his first charge, and here hu feels settled for life. lie re. aides In ono of the finest houses In the place, and Is surrounded by more of the comforts of life than full to tile lot of most of the brethren. We were especially delighted toobserva the cordial Intimacy and friendship existing between him and Brother Spieler. Nut always do brethr a of the same faith, residing In the same place, dwell together in such unity.

Kramllch has taken a desp lo west In, and been ide titled with, the Keystone State Normal School, which Is lbcdted at Kutz town. We allied out to It, and were surprised to Sod It so large and Imposing a structure. It does great credit to the place, and under ctlt•:lent managetueut has been a great success. Rev. A.

Together with Bros. Rratullebatul Bpleker we called on the venerable Rev. 1-sue Buehler, who lives in one of the most homelike horned at the eastern end of the town. Fur inure than a quart -a of a century be was the minister of the Woad to the Lutherans In this section of the country. 8 . 01120 years ago, owing to the Infirmities of advancing age, he withdrew from the active wink of the min ktry, and now lives with his ogee and lively cont. panion in the quiet retirement of his beautiful nume, lu a pleasant place, and with a goodly heri tage. In the cozy sitting-room of Father Roeller'a house we all sat and chatted for a while. One of the most Interesting topics was the proposed mar riage of Mr. Z., of Allentown, with Miss P., of Reading. A wedding in this neighborhood Is no thing of unusual occurrence, but there are some unusual features about thin. Neither party Is of age, the bridegroom being but fifteen, and the bride, although of larger size, is only In the 13th year of her age! All the clergymen of the neigh. borhood feel, therefore, like having nothing to do with the ceremony, lest they Incur the penalty of the law for marrying minors. It was hinted that Miss P. has nOondness nor love for Mr. Z., and only marries him because of his money. Alas! many unhappy marriages have grown out of mar rying from such motives. It Is expected the mar riage will come off about April next. unless the engagein mt Is broken, and after that, of course, Miss P. will go to reside with her husband at Al. lentown. The people of Reading will be sorry to lose the pleasant face and the correctly spoken German of the young bride! bat she says she cannot stay, hecau,e she does not earn her bread. She prefers Reading as a residence, and would greatly prefer remaining stogie, and die an old maid, thou be married but she feels it Is wiser to remove to Allentowu, and fall Into the acme of Mr. Z. aril live, than to starve and perish amid he glories of Reading. $13'21) 50 $3,000 00 60 00 50 00 60 00 50 00 60 00 60 00 ' 60 00 25 00 60 00 . 50 00 50 00 3500 100 00 3500 60 00 160 00 50 00 100 00 100 00 50 00 50 00 100 00 100 00 100 20 50 00 35 00 5550 00 On the 19th of February, the Macungie Loan and Building Association met at the usual place.

Tive COD:CERT.—The audience that attended the Opera Honse,Friday even t g,to hear 51 in Kcl• long, were completely "carried away" with hor charming singing and their enthusiasm knew no bounds. Th 6 deafening applause ablett greeted her after each selection that she sang seem.' pleasing to her, as she must have known it was b tt a faint expression of the intense teeing of the audience. We cannot say anythlne in praise of Mins Kellogg that will do her Justice. Everybody knows how perfectly her voice Is cultivated and how well she knows how to use It to please an audience. Her manners upon the stage •are so easy that they add greatly t the fascination of her voice. Mr. Eloper seemed like an old acquaintance and his solos were received with as much pleasure AP his beautifully finished accompaniments. Signor Rand°lfi, though very tarns alter Bentley, was much admired, and the sweetness of voice and flue execution of Mr. Morgan brought forth universal praise. We regret that the Opera liouse Was not filed to its utmost capacity, as we are sure that it will be a long time before we will again have the op. portunity to listen to a concert of the high char acter of the one given last evening. SONS OF TE3IPERANCE. Anniversary of Jordan Division. A convocation of .the Divisions of Bone of Tem perance assembled in Seiple, Johnston dr, Co.'s hall, Thursday, to celebrate the twenty.third an niversary of J,.rdan Divht.m. The convocation . was called to order nt two O'clock by P. G. W. I'. E. G. Lee, of Philadelphia. fie !dated the object of the meeting. lie said that it was not only for the good of the Sons of Temperance, but for the bet.efit of the cause‘at large; that soma persons were partial to a particular order advocating the cause of temperance, which was wrong, as It did not matter which reclaimed the fallen, Mastro,- I n; bls position by citing the ease where a mink ter inked a colored member which he thought was the beet church to go to . heaven through. The colored man answered by saying, " My Master gives me a patch of land every year which I cut. tivate and sow with wheat. The min descends the sun shines upon It and ripens the wheat. • I gather It, threat , It, and go to the miller and ask him If he wants to bur some wheat. Hu takes a handful, CXI/11Vild4 It and says r Jim, title Is gond wheat.' flo never asks where I got It from or where I raised It." • So It is with the drunkard. ft matters not where he belongs or to what Order, so that lie Is a temperance man. G. S., J. C. Magolgan stated that It was thirty years ago since the first Lo Igo of Sono of T. miler ante was organized in New Yotk, with only cis teen members, but to-day there are 10,000 Divh.- lons and 1,600,000 members of the Order width. the jurlsniction of Rio National DIVI8101), Sans of Temperance. In Pennsylvania alone 200,000 have been Initiated, and there are now nearly 15,000 members embraced in 300 Divisions. G. C. Rev. Mopes Walker mid there wits a pe. collar feeling existing in the plaen where he re. whkh some folks cal'ed,tyranny.. Ile said : etcertain IrOu-tuaster, before employing any one, required him to trikna pledge not to use Intoxicat ing liquors while-at work or at tome, and If the workman violated the pledge he found that there was uo longer any work there for him to do. Ile thought that was the right kind of tyranny for is ruastertoexerclse. Readdressed the meeting upon the words of Scripture "The L - wd is my Slop. herd," etc.; claiming that th_e Temperance Socle. ties were acting the part of shepherds by raising the drunkard out of the lioghof poverty and the worst of society, clothing him In decent cloth ing and putting him in his right mind and senses. He could take them to a house that was once um lauted, forsaken and poverty.stricken,—but now go to that house and see tho family and hear the prayers of the children and parents, and then say that there lan° good In the Temperance Orders, If you can. A meeting, under the auspices of the Suns of Temperance, was held Thursday evening forth , dvancement of the came of temperance, I.ev. J. W.'Wood, chairman, made some latriductory re. marks and then introduced G. W. P., E. G. Lee, of Philadelphia, us the orator for the evening. Alter tome preliminary remark, he noticed tie verdict given by Professor Lloblg. The professor was employed by a number of persons engaged In the manufacture of intoxicating drinks to analyze the stuff ttey call beer and after a careful exam- I tattoo gave the following ventt t—ibat there was Just as much nourishment in Jive cents' worth of bread as there was in sir barrels of beer. Thou he took up some time by giving views off - scripture oe the subject. fin said some men say that the scrip tures are opposed to the temperance close, auel gave as the ground Of their opposition St. Paul's advice "be temperate in all things." Then the speaker asked why not be temperate In the Use of asculc and such other poisonous drugs. The aa• awer was generally that the A ',oath, meant In all things that are necessary for the maintenance of huinua life. Then we argue that Intoxlcat ltg ail:lke are not neceseary.to maintain human life, and then again St. advice to Timothy, " Take u little wiuu for thy stOthaclea sake," a bleb can be batter explained as not essential to he wel fare of the stomach by the following Illubtratlon —"Two Irishmen met one day. Thu other asked his friend to take sometbilug good. Pat said that If he had got anything gool fur Bridget and the children he would take it along. Mike sal .l he asked him to drink. Something to drink, is It, you ask me to have—look, see here, pulling out a pocket full of money, and telling the other that his wife and children are comfortably clothed, well fed, and It made his heart Jump out of Lie pasta on a Sunday morning when he got up and found Bridget and the dear children up ready to go to church, whoa at en, time they used io get In any corner out of ht. r al or he would knock them out. But thanks to the temperatve society Sir the change. And what do you do at church, Pat? Why I hear the minister talk and read the scripture. Read the seripturo, you do—then I have you. You know St. Paul said to Timothy, 'take a little wine for thy stomach's sake.' Pat was puzzled for a while, for ho could not under ,tand how the Good Book could nay anything against the cause that had done him and his fam ily so much good, and at last be aneweredAtlke lu the following way : • Mike, you know you are not the Apostil Paul and 1 am not Timothy and the, beet of all, I have no stomach's sake fur whisky? " The Chairman then Introduced the Most Wm , thy Patriarch of North America, B. B. Ransom, of Jersey City, who addresised the meeting atsonie length In reference to It being unconstltutlonui,as the drinking party says, but be Bald that the first thing that he learned when he went to study law was the definition given by Blackstone, England's greatest lawyer, In reference to the word munici pal law, was a law to prohibit anything that was not for the good of the governed, and then went on to show bow much was spent In thla city for the 'liquor traffic. Say there are 100 licensed 'houses for the sale of Intoxicating drink, and at each bar they take ten dollars per daft which ho considered a low figure, that would make $lOOO per day or $805,000 per' year In this city alone, spent for Intoxicating drinks. There aro at pres ent 200,000 gragehope In the United States, whin would make an expenditure at the rate of $730, 000,000 'p,cr year for that which in worse than nothing. After giving some particulars of the Order the speaker then resumed his seat. Rev.
