EVERGREENS WINTER•KILLED.—Wo have already alluded to the Influence the remarkably severe winter has had on evergreens. The no• counts from allover the country appear to be about the same. The Country Gentleman says as fol lows In relation to the matter Cultivators do not agree as to the precise cause. In some places where there has been no cold severe enough to kill th 4 frult.buds of the peach, the de. structiou of evergreens Is as severe as where the mercury has gone down to twenty degrees below zero. The long continued cold,StrOtl.; winds, and exposure to the sun's rays, have doubtless had their Influence, as sheltered trees are often lees affected than those exposed to severe blast., nnd tlmseindward sides of tnany trees are most injured; endln other car's those which have been shielded fro the ,nutsrays have escape t while others are killed. Yetthe fact that mane dead trees are scut Intermixed with green and healthy ones In the same hedge row. renders a , atisfactory explana• Mon difficult. The Pew York Journal of Com, merce states let the loss of yonog evergreens in and about Astoria, Long Island, is estimated at hon.lreds of thousands of dollars, and that !OM nurserymen have lost their entire stock.

He was ,no of the most prdmlnent, influential and useful cit• Ivies of the eastern end of thecouuty,and through. out his long life was held In the highest respect by his friends and neighbors. He waszt member of the old Whig and Republican parties and was frequently chosen to po.ltions of honor and trust, which he tilled with credit to himself and advan— tage to the community. His death at a ripe old age, though not unlocked for, , will be mourned by the satire community among whom he lived.— Reading 2 Ones. TRANSFERRED TO EASTON.—The man Pen dergrast, charged with shorting Father McKee, at Catasanqua,was transferred to the Easton Jail, last week. The offence was committed just over the • llue, In Northampton eounty,and the ease will therefore have to be tried In that county.. Pen dergrast Is evidently losane upon• the subject of killing Father McKee and that , the reverend gen tleman escaped with so little injury Is very fortu nate for him. His Idea seems to be that Father McKee did something to injure hls chances of em• ploytnent, but everybody who,knows the Priest knows. that It is the height of folly to suppose anything of the kind. The trial will undoubtedly create great interest, as the off sir Is one of the most remarkable, during and exciting that ever occurred In the borough of Catasaugua and came so near Involving the life of an innocet.t and law abiding citizen, who was not even aware of the shooting having taken place.

Crin ger was struck by the wagon and who severely bruised, and had his face and bead severely cut. The wagon was smashed and the horse ran away at full speed.

DECORATION OF SOLDIERS' GRAVES. To the Excelsior Rfl and to the children of thc pub lic schools, especially, are the thanks of the pa• triode citizens of Allentown due for see ng us from the neglect of observing the beautiful and Solemn ceremonies of Decoration Day. Shortly after six o'clock, last Friday, the Excelsior Rides formed on Centre Square and, preceded by their drum corps,and followed by a procession of several hun dred girls and buys, proceeded to the several ceme• tc: les and strewed the fresh spring flowers over the graves of the heroes who died for their country. 'ln the Sixth Ward the ceremonies were conduettal der the supervision of Mathew Ault, and every thing passed off very creditably to those who pur -1 tlclpated. WE often wonder when Allentown will be finished. Although Hamilton street Is about us compactly built upon as it ever can be, from one end to'tbe other Improvements of some kind are in progress and the business men are never free from the sound of the bummer, the saw and the maul. and chisel.

With. In the last mon. h Mr. Kelsey has been traveling considerably In the West, where he hod an oppor tunity of cheery log the prospects of the wheat crop. About a mouth ago he was In Morgan and Macouttln counties, Illinois, where much of the ground said to have been sown with wheat 18 per fectly bare. In some fields a very few epears of live wheat were to be seen. In the northern part of Morgan county not much wheat la raised, cern being the chief staple. South of Jacksonville Is a great wheat country, and Macoupin county Is con sidered one of the best wheattproducing districts in the State. In crossing this county from West to east Mr:Kelsey saw but three middling fields; and on inquiry of all extensive farmer he learned that the latter knew of no good fields In that region. •ht the way between Jacksonville and Chicago he saw no good wheat. Passing eastward through Inalana ity the Fart Wayne road he stopped at Canton, tOhlo. In the former State he noticed a f :iv good lots of wheat, but In eastern Indians and western Ohio It is very pow. I a Columbiana county he caw one good field ; and through west:. ern Pennsylvallla there was none that prom ked a crop. Eastward flout Harrisburg, through the Lebanon valley; which Is celebrated for good yields 01 wheat, the prospect is even worse than In any other district through which he passed. The cause of the falinre is generAlly attributed to the scarcity of falOW last winter, and the Intense cold. Many f inners In the West proposed to plow up the wheat and plant corn. Mr. Kelsey stays where the wheat had been drilled In It had come through the win• ter In much better order than where It was sown broadcast. The extremely dry weather has been very hail' on •wlnter grain all over the country through which be passed. The Indications every. where are that wheat w ill he very scarce and must increase in price. In passing through Chicago Mr. Kelsey found about half the burnt district al ready rebuilt and occupied, with thousands of la borers at woil; In all directions preparing the ground for new strictures. The people of the city. are wide awake to the future. As to political sentiment, Mr. Kelsey conversed with many people during his trip, but did not make any new disc arnica. Before the nett Convention ell the Republicans lie met were Gr.int men; and after that time he saw but two who declared a preference for Greeley. 0:e of these had attended the convention as a delegate from Louisiana, and the other was an Ohlo Gruner. According to Mr. Kelsey 'r observations Horace wt.! get Very few votes from Republienns. Sluice his return to Carbon county Mr. Kelsey has bean hard at work OLMIng• the tires In the fury. tr. which have been very destructive. An* , were generally extinguished by the recent rains. Boy sail saw mills and great nannthiss o f logs h o nr been banned In that vlclulty.—lhicka Intelli genear. • --- Tun price of excutilon tickets from Allen town to Pollndulphla, and return, good for four days during the Convention, will be $l.BO. .

Toe:Railroad Compnoins are ton slow lo Issuing their time tables atter they bare made changes. There Is no use lu keeping the changes secret as though the Companies Intended making some secret military expedition. A IMPORT was current in Allentown, Mon day mornlng,that Horace Greeley had died. Many supposed meant that be had dyed his hat, hot the report probably grew out of the death of James Gordou Beimett. Toe custom of " sitt'ng" on "stoops" and balconies of pleasant evenlngs,and there receiving friends, seems as much as ever In favorthlA spring. It is somuwbut strange that la this age of social artificiality and false dignity, this pleasant cue. tom, handed down to us from the Dutch, should still continue in such universal favor.

ENIPLOYE9 OF TUE 'DELAWARE, LACKA— WANNA AND WESTRIIN RAILROAD AIIRMED TOR EMIII:ZZLEMFINT,L•SMIIitOII wan greatly excited Thur-d.ty afternoon, on account of the arrest of several men connected with the Delaware, Lack a walnut and Western Railroad Company, for em bzzlement. One of the guilty parties, who has been confined In Wllkesbarre J ill for six weeks plot, no doubt Jealous of the liberty his confeder ates were cid .ving, exposed the entire gang. Superintendent W. F. Ilulletead gave the case into the hands of Detectives fhtilstead and S'lllwell, who succeeded In capturing the cut re.party, and they were brJught. before Alderman Fuller hand ' cuff d. Two of this gang have been for years employed by the company na bosses OR tile track from here to Biughatuton. They are B trlow and Feltner. They employ a large number of men, who, at the end of each month are supp led by the bosses with orders for pay at the general °thee in thin r ity. It now appears that these two Moses have for a year or two supplied five mon, not at all connected with the work, with orders for pay, and when the money was paid over, an equal division was made of the pile. The Com pany has lost a.l.rge amount of money. The two b vises were sent to Jail, and three of the men were also committed. IT IS A BURNING SHAME that the Dale Mart a facturitut Company should be kept buck In Its operations by a ask of • capital., There are a number of hard working, energetic, practical Iron masters who have offered to put In capital, and they want soma mac from the business men and clpitalists, but It has not been forthcoming. That the works would be well managed there is no question, and being, well managed they would pay handsomely. Thus far would those who Invested be beuelltted. The works would give employment to many hundreds of skilled laborers, bringing to our city a class of men who would be heaVy con• smilers and who would add greatly to the growth and business prosperity of the city. There is not merchant In the city who, If he invested, would not be largely recompensed, both In dividends and Increase of trade, by the erection of these works, and there Is not a loot of land that would not be enhanced In value by the demand far more houses which the works would create. This opportunity to sill a thousand or two to our population should sot be permitted to ship away without an elitist upon the part of our business men to secure Its success. We do not - know whether the . project. ors are thoroughly discouraged or not, but they might he Induced to again make the effort If they had the proper encouragement from those who ought to be at the head of such movements.

KUEIE Lk , Bon, of Slatington, have ro.opened the beautiful woods known as Union Grove, at Wal nut, ort, on the L. dz EL R. It., and are prepared to accommo pimento parties. They make no Ciaurge for the grove, but expect to furnish the refreshments, which they do on the most liberal terms. The grove Is pleasantly situated and far enough from the railroad to avoid danger to children. All the hauling for parties engaging the woods will be done free. AN Ica CREAM Stn:Lt.—The Lancaster Ex press says; A Columbia clergyman was the for tunate recipient of a can of lard last week, which hu had carefully deposited in his cellar surrounded with Ice, supposing all this time the can contained Ice cream. The following evening he invited some friends to his house for a quiet little treat, but fearing the supply would fall short, be requested a young dry-goods merchant to taste the cream, and go down to the saloon and order more of the same Kind. The scene that followed that taste bezgars description, but after our young friend' finished spitting and explaining himself, one or two roars of hearty laughter were Indulged in, and the company retired home, well pleased with their treat. AT Grace Cburch,Bunday evening,Rev. Wm. R. dries preached an eloquent, beautiful and forci ble sermon upon the fall of Adam and Ev e . le took occasion to rebut the theory of the Darwinites that man la merely an Improvement upon the monkey. God created man In his own Image and neither physically nor morally has there been that progress which certl in philosophers contend for. The brutes are no better or more beautiful to.d ty than they were at the time of the creation. If anything, they have retrograded, and there Is no proorthat man la superior In physical formation to Adam. 141r.Gries' sermon was a common•sense and convincing discourse, interesting In the facts set forth, elevating In Its moral teachings, and should not fall to have a good effect upon the minds of those who listened to Its beautiful lan guage. Fou PRILADKLI'LIIA.—A large number of Lehigh COUIititILIS are going to Phil Ldelphia to see the " big guns" who will be assembled Irma all parts of the Union to participate In the selection of the National standard bearers of the Rdpubli eon pan y. Never again, probably, will those who have already arrived at the age of manhood have the opportunity so near at hand to take a look at the leading men of the Nation—who have grap pled with the great events of the century and have brought order out of chaos and peace to the coon .ry. The preparations m tiring In Philadelphia for the grand occasion are on an immense scale and any ono who goes there cannot fall to be well compensated for the trip. The champion city of Republlcaul.ro will give a rouslug welcome to the delegates to the National Cooveutloo nod the de. inonstrations in preparation will do honor to the energy, enterprise and hospitality of the City of Brotherly Love. SOLD.—According to the Messenger, some of the Democrats of Pbconlxvllle were badly sold on Thursday. The Messenger says : " Our Dem— ocratic friends were slightly sold on Thursday last. Ono of their number was busy for several days procuring the names of the faitnful who would attend the Democratic Convention at Read— ing. All were promised free tickets if they would go for his favorite candidate. Qaite a number of persons assembled at the plate appointed for meet— ing, whence they were to be escorted with flying colors to the depot. The tour arrived, but the gentleman who was to rural. h the passes and marshal the procession 1114 not make his appear• mm. With downcast looks the party made their way to the care, and were politely heeded a pass by Mr. Gordon, which would carry them to Read ing and return for the small sum of E 1.35. There was not much enthusiasm, we imagine, for the f vorlte candidate, but there was some iret•class swearing at the-man who had so deceived them."

All the store, were closed in the afternoon. The procession was beaded by the Mod. The first place visited was the Evangelical graveyard, thence the decorators went to the Union grave yard, hisky Hill, and closed their ceremonies in the Moravian burying ground,where an oration was delivered by Major Norris. Among. other sentiments, this accomplished young orator described two vivid scenes of which be had been a sharer during the late war. T. were, Fred ericksburg and the Southern Prison Pene. As I do not pretend to give a report, I will merely state that the ceremonies, notwithstanding the threat ening aspect of the weather, palmed off to the credit of the G. A. 11 , by whose Instrumentalities thls beautiful sentiment Is annually renewed. Pointless posters, evidently the production of a sorehead. are out, giving spiteful dabs at our CoUncil men. This is quite a fashion here,pecullar to the place, I suppose. Occasionally lampoon iih hand-bills are stuck up signed by nobody, still having. a tendency to keep all respectahle attd competent citizens out of these borough offices.
