AN Inquest was held at Whitehall, Lehigh

Coroner, R. A. Lyttle, R. Clay limnersly, Dan. B.
Wood, Aug. Eagle, Henry Be'lers and Peter*
Weaver, Jurors, upon the body of William H.
Morris. The following verdict was rendered : The
said William 11. Morris came to bin death by being
run over by part of a coal train at the crossing
over the Lehigh Valley Railroad at Blery's Bridge,
Lehigh county, while carelessly catching hold of
the moving cars, on the 11th day of May, 187:3, at
above live o'clock, p. m.; and the Jury further
say that the rear brakeman of the train la cen—
surable for not signalling the engineer to stop the
train, If it could be done, after be knew a life had
probably been lost, and that otherwise no blame
attaches in the matter.
HEAVY INVOICES. —The hardware establish
tnent of M. B. Young .t Co., No. 742 Hachilton
street, le pointed to with pride by our citizens as
a living monument to Allentown entorprhie and
industry. Some idea of the business done there
may be formed from the fact that to-day they re
ceived fire cur loads of horse shoes from H. Bur
den t Soon, of Troy, N. Y., containing fifty tone,
which were shipped by way of the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad. They also received two
car loads of cut nails. This, it appears to us, In
a pretty good example of the wholesale trade car
ried on by this firm, which enables other dealers
la this line throughout Vis section of the State to
m ke their purchases here more advantageously
than they can In New York and Ph iladelphiaots
they can buy as cheap and nave the difference In
freight.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRES-.SAW MILL, TURNING
MILL, FIVC 110VBES, AND ONB B•RN BURNED.-
The Scranton Republican says a fire has been
raging:ln the woods abort two tulles below Le—
high Fans, for three or four days, sweeping every
thing before it. The people In the vicinhy have
not pretended to do anything but tight the fire
fiend, which they did like heroes. On Thursday
afternoon there weed strong wind blowing, which
hirled atirl sent tho angry filmes forward on
lair work of destruction regardleaa of swamps,
eld•, or anything that came In its path. The
air was tilled with smoke and burning timbers
that were being curried along by the tornado. Its
prOgnas could not be stopped before It reached
the villuge of Lehigh Fails, and destroyed a saw
mill, turning mlil,ave dwelling houses and a biirn.
Toe Inmates barely escaped with their lives, and
saying none of their personal effects, not even a
change of el ottilmr.

FALLEN Tunouorf.Wre regret to be hi
formed that the project of erecting a new furnace
In thin city has fallen through. The company bad
,ome ditilculty about obtaining a switch from the
Lehigh Valley Railroad, the ReadiugCompany In
terposing suclabtlections as to prevent the furnace
company from obtaining a curve with a radius
.ufilelent to allow Largo locomotives to pass'over
It and up to the works. We understand the Read
hug Company have been thus Jealous of certain
rights they po4stss below the Iron bridge In order
to prevent the V • 'ley Road from extending their
road up Cedar Creek, the Reading Company hop
ing to do that themselves after they have finished
the new depot at Reading. The now furnace com
pany was organised with a view of constractlug
their works on Mr. Barber's property, and as they
are debarred from :possessing the advantages of
convenient ral road facilities, they decline to go
ahead.
We understand come of the gentlemen who pro
posed taking stock In the concern have been In
quiring Into the condition of wawa the Iron corn
parties whom works are now In. operation. They
have been editled with remarkable statements of
the losses of a leading company, which had the
efnet to shake their confl lance In this branch of
manufacture. They were also told that Iron ore
Is becoming alarmingly scarce, and that their new
furnace might hardy be In blast before all the ore
In Lehigh county would he entirely used up. If
the report of these investigations be true, and we
have it from very reliable authority, those Inter
ested In furnaces appear very selfish In their desire
to keep all the business in their own hands. We
know pretty nearly what It costs to make a ton of
pig Iron nnl the Iron quotations show that some
body bas n handsome margin on It. Everybody
extenkively connected with well managed lion
furnaces .ins grown rich. The stock of the com
panies has not only Increased In value, but the
number of sha-es, In some Instances, ban been In
'creased and divided among the storkholdera where
the profits have been used in erecting new Blacks.
That the old companies ere putting up new stacks,
and making costly improvements In their works
to increase their productive caplet y, proves that
'they have made money In the paet,have confidence
le the future and are not afraid of the supply of
ore giving 01.1 t. Many years ago It was predicted
that all the Iron ore would sone be taken out, but
the supply seems Just as nearly Inexhaustlble now
as It did then. New Iron ore mines are being
opened constantly at points where experienced
Iron men did uotdrenrn that Iron existed. Deserted
mines aro being taken up and In some Instances
these have proved remarkably rich and remuner
ative. There are Innumerable evidences that the
supply Is almost Inexhaustible and sustain the
opinion of some r f our mostexperlenred Iron men
'hit the supply will last a hundred. veard at least,
which is pretty nearly us long as the present
owner* will want to operate their foresees.

WE have conversed with a gentleman whose
profession has called him to every nook and corner
of the upper section of our county, who assures us
that prospects of an abundant fruit crop are very
favorable: The apples and cherries especially are
very promising. The winter gmin, however, looks
very poor, some gelds being so miserable that the
farmers have been comtedlcd to plow them over
ngaiti and plant them with other crops. The hay
crop, unless wo soon have rain, will be an entire
failure.
Srnueo is now fairly upon us, owl Ile
teams are hastening to the lumber woods In va
rious parts of the country. Our advice to every
man who goes to the woods; be he captain, cook,
teamster, or any other man, lb to take along a
good stock of Johnson's Anodyne Liniment and
Parson's Purgative Pill.. Many months of labor
(in the aggregate) may be saved by this precau
tion.

Tern necessity for taking the county papers
is demonstrated In the case of Ell Moyer, residing
near Mossersvllle, In Lynn township. Mrs. Moyer
was In the last stage of pulmonary consumption
and of course any means of promised relief that
was offered was eagerly accepted. Borne few de's
ago a man visited the house and promised to make
a cure for 1153. The family had not that much
rnoney,but the savings of the children were scraped
together making In all about thirtemidollara. This
was given to the- man and' he gave them some

the man was one of Ihosetraveling frauds so often

Eon. R. E. Wright—My Dear Friend : The eatn
est wain or army former pupils and fellow-cithsens
of Allentown, that I should be appointed Super
lutendent of ,Public Schools of your city, Is very
gratifying to me as a token of their kind regard.
Had the Board of Directors determined upon a
change, an I was luformed, I would cheerfully
allow my name to be presented tothe Convention.
But, I learn, since my arrival last evening, that
the present Incumbent, a gentleman of worth,
ability and energy, has perforated bin arduous
dudes with efficiency ; that, If he failed of a re
election, of which he was assured till my name
was suggested two or three days ago, he would be
much disappointed. It seems to me ungenerous
to enter Into a contest with him of mere pasonal
popularity. I must therefore decline beluga car
d Mate, and If my name should be off red to the
Cony talon, oblige me by withdrawing it at ouce.

not elected. The secretary of the convention left
his tally list lie on the desk after the vote had
been announced, and some time after It was dis
