RAINY SUNDAYS.—The old tradition that " if It rains on Easter Sunday, it will rain, for seven consecutive Sundays thereafter," has again been revived and many of the lash lonables will not therefore attend church hezause they cannot wear their fine clothes.

To-Both')Eus.—The flimsy character of the partitions In most American modern built houses, or at least these fur sale, is a mutter of coin non notoriety. The French understand this matter better, or at least adopt a better method. Instead of light lath for these thin partitions, they use slant pieces of oak as thick as garden palings, * which they flail firmly on each side of the poll tieo, and till the spaces between with rubble and plaster of" !'aria. The partition Is then coated with plaster. This makes a firm, warm and dur able inside wall or partition.'

The shuttle is made front a piece of hard wood broken or a pair of shoetnaker'3 clanips.the headlets are made of shoe maket's twine with eyelets of leather, his warp Is made of the same kind of twine as the headlets, and plenty of different colored rags tire at hand for his weft or filling.

SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS IN THE WILDERNESS. —There arrived at the Merchant's Hotel, this borough, on Friday, a man named George West man, who was barn in Lehigh county three.quar tern of a century ago. Ills family moved to West Penn township, this county, when he was three years of , age, In which place he has resided ever shice—n period of seventy-two years. In all this, of course, there is nothing remarkable. Bur It Is a little surprising that he should grow up to this advanced age without ever having seen or ridden 00 a railroad car, or visiting Pottsville, the capi tal of the county, until last Friday: lie Was Liston ished ut what he saw In our borough, and partic ularly so at the gas lights. Ile couldn't Imagine how those Iron candles could be made to emit such a brilliant light. While the old gentleman was amaz,d at what he saw around him, he little thought what allying curiosity he himself was as the great throng of people poured into the Mer chant's Ilotel during the evening to see the man seVentyAlve years old who had never before seen a railroad car, a gas light, or been in Pottsville .

THE Judge has informed the Grand Jury that `! whatever abuses exist, if any, should there be reasonable ground of suspicion for them, should be Investigated by the Grand Jury." We do not think this is the kind of investigation the people desire. If the Judge 'bad Instructed the Grand Jury that, if they found reasonable grounds for suspicion that the accounts of the County had not been properly and systematically kept,they should authorize the Court to appoint a committee to investigate the County affairs, then we should ex pect the Court to uppoint a committee of skilled accountants who would be competent to go back for years and examine all the vouchers and all the accounts of the county. This would be a very ex pensive job If It was done by the Grand Jury, as it would occupy a considerable length of time, and, too, the question arises are there any number of the mem b ers of the Grand Jury who are compe bAit to go through the accounts ? A committee of experts, composed of three Republicans and two Democrats would give better satisfaction. They would be sworn and they could not, therefore, safely make any report which could not be sus— tained by the facts, and the preponderance of lit publicans on the committee would deprive any— body of the chance to say that a job of whitewash— ing had been done, should the committee fail to discover any dishonest intention in the committing of the errors which have been reported by the Auditors.

Dr. If. Bernhardt, Charlatan, S. C. PROVIDENCE, PA., Dec. 5, 1868 " Yesterday afternoon I casually dropped Into the rooms of Dr. Bernhardt, at the Wyoming House, Scranton. I was surprised to find the multiplicity of instruments and glasses wherewith the Doctor remedies the infirmities and defects 01 the eye. A patient, unable with the naked eye hardly to distinguish a wagon passing in the street, also called. By ildjusting on, of his selected glasses to her eye, she could read a sign across the street with such case as to astonish and delight her. I have been familiar with the Lackawanna Valley and Its medical men for the greater part of a century,but I have no knowledge of any Ocu list or Optician ever visiting it before who was half so well qualified to remedy the defects of the hu man eye upon correct, successful principles as this really ingenious gentleman. Ills method of pre serving and improving this all important organ, Is based on such plain, practical common sense,as to be readily appreciated and applied.

My attention has been called to,the fact that a person representing himself to be Dr. Morris Bernhardt, the Oculist and Optician, has been traveling through this county and imposing upon the people by pretending to sell glasses of superior quality, and to select them by extiaordlnary pro fessional skill. I desire to caution the public against this swindler. I haver.o peddlers travel ing anywhere in my interest and do not leave the office on professional business in which I give no tice that lam located. Tho person referred to Ilan been doing business in the vicinity of the Le high Mountain, and has been showing my hand bills to effect his purpose. Mr. Solomon Mory and Mr. Gotthard Mory, residing in Saucon township, and persons whose names I have not obtained, have been victimized by this sharper. I trust that after this exposure, the character of this pretender will be estimated at its proper standard. Reputa tion to a professional man Is like a Jewel beyond all price, and having been endorsed by the lead ing savants and the professional men in this coun try and Europe, I feel it my right to protest most earnestly against this Imposter who thus seeks to injure a professional reputation based upon the careful study and research of years. I hereby Mter a reward of tt2s fur the arrest and conviction of this man who has been swindling the public by these false pretences. DR.

I.lr:TaLaucm, March 7, 1872 A gloomy, rainy day makes It disagreeable to go outside, so quietness reigns supreme In this town. On Saturday the town was very lively fur once. That liveliness was immensely appreciated by the business men hereabouts. A considerable portion of Main street Is to be renovated in city style. Carts and cellar diggers are busy as bees all day long. There are to be erected some six or eight fronts, between the Sun hotel and Market street. Otherwise there arc not many new build ings under way as yet. Rumor has It that a young man connected with the railroad here, Is among the missing, caused by domestic Infelicities. lie may return ; if not, his grass-widowed wife will possibly have ample time to ponder the causes of his desertion at leisure. We see by the Thnes that the question of County Superintendency of Common Schools isengrossing a considerable space in that Journal. Mr. Walker, the present lecumbent, is out In a three-column article urging his claims for a third term. Being not personally well acquainted with. Mr. Walker, the present official, yet, I think he has given tol erable satisfaction during his term of office. I have not clearly learned who his competitorsare,or what degree of opposition there will be. One point Is made, It scums—at least Mr. Walker re buts the eaton—which is rotation after two terms. A long array of'counties is cited to show the con trary rule throughout the Slate. The best real argument for a plurality of terms however seems to be the long known fact that ofilcials die but do not often resign. Some teach ers with whom I had conversation lately, seem to thiuklhat a Superintendent very lougin office be comes entirely too theoretical, getting further and further away from actual practical teaching. But above all looms up still the unsettled question : Is the office of much good ? Salem Lutheran Church Is to be considerably enlarged or fundamentally rebuilt, the building being entirely too small to accommodate all its members. For some time there was a movement on foot to separate Into an English and German congregation, and to build a new edifice for the one party, but no division could thus be effected except for the outgoing seceders to go away empty handed ; hence the other alternative resolved on. And this we think decidedly the best policy. The constant dly slon of churches into sickly little beg ging congregations le certainly of but little good to any place, while large, strong, wealthy and milted organizations artrable to get along and to assist their deserving poor in secular affairs. But your correspondent will not dictate. News Is scarce; our town le quiet. This often reminds me of the farmer who got a new tenant, and upon being congratulated upon having such a" steady" man In bla employ, answered-very earnestly, " Steady 1 yes, he is only too 'featly.' So our town Is often only too quiet. Nano. SHEET music, Instruction books, blank books, music paper and cards and all kinds of musical trimmings, a large supply„contstantly on hand at O. Y.
