Wnit.g. we have had plenty of water In Le high county, the springs of Chester county have many of them dried up, causing farmers great Inconvenience in hauling water for the use of their Cattle. Where they have such large dairies as In Chester county, scarcity of water Is serious Mal nets. Tan Liberals have even shown cheek enough to ark a sound Republican to allow them to hold a meeting at his hotel In the country.

It won't work that way, either. • , Tatum will be a fine allow of live stock at our Agricultural Fair this year, and If the weather Is et all favorable, the attendance will be larger than ever before.

A BWINDLEIL—A man, signing himself T. Howard, Is going about the county selling what he says are lottery tickets, to gullible people, for fifty cents each.

HAIIIIIBMI.O correspondent wrote to the Philadelphia Press that lien. Hartranft would lose six hundred votes lu Lebanon county. The Leb anon Courier replies that the reverie Is the fact. Hartranft will run ahead of hie ticket, and will have a majority In Lebanon county of more than fourteen hundred. The same Is the case In Pero county, where the Press said Hartranft would lose tour hundred votes. The Freeman says there are not more than four men in the county who would vote against Hartran ft and Allen. ACCIDENT AT BLATINGTON.—JOiID D.

Fears were entertained of him nin recovering at first, but his attending physician, now consider him out of danger. IN the lock which has occurred In Congres sional matters In this District, it is probable the, the Lehigh Derdocracy will yield to Montgomery, sod wheel intoline lu support of Dr. Acker, whom the Democrats in this city pretend to have the greatest contempt for. There is no doubt but that Acker deserves his second term as much as his predecessor in Ctingress from this county did, ono It is only stubborness and a pretty well set up Job that is trying to deprive him of It. There is no queetion as to the result. MONTOOMEItY AND Leiden.—Thu popula. lion or Montgomery In 1870 was 81,612 ; that of Lehigh 50,720. The list of taxables In Montgoni cry in 1872, was 21,524, In Lehigh cout.ty 16,681. The Democratic vote In Montgomery Is about 0000; Lehigh about 7000. A Cougresslonal con ventioo or an equal number of delegates from net county would be manifestly unfair. The repro notation ought to bo on an equal basis through out both counties. This would be a fair couveu tion.—Arorrislown Ex.

In Reading alone, Clymer that year received two or three hundred Republican votes, and In the whole county nearly or quite five hundred. Again, in 1869, Governor Geary was "cut" to the extent of at least three hundred votes by Republicans In the liquor Interest. This year the defection against the Republican candidate for Governor is b. es than It was on both occasions when Governor Geury was the candidate. We know of no Grant man to the whole county th“t will vote Jgolost fiartranft, and aro sure that Har tranft'a vote will be the largest ever cast for Gov ernor by the Republicans of Berks." A MAN TERRIBLY BURNED AT TUE BLAST FURNACE.—ThIs morning, at 6 o'clock,at the blast unlace of the Bethlehem Iron Company, o. man by the name of Edward Powers was severely earned on both shoulders and arms and both of his legs, and elsewhere on his sides and body. The burns on the legs and arms are the most seri ous. It appears that a breakage occurred, and Hr. Powers was engaged lu thing it up, and while io doing a follow-laborer turned on the blast,whleb caused the Iron to fly and spatter all over Powers, and burning him very badly. He was taken to his home on Fourth street, near Linden, and Dr. BOA. J. Hess was sent for, who dressed the burns. Sir.

We are glad to note the growth of the outlying villages around Allentown and espe cially those which spring out of the prosperity con .,quent upon that protective policy, which the Re publican party inaugurated when It came into power is 1861, and to which It bus since BO reso lutely adhered. It Is to this benign policy that our country owes its present unequalled prosperity in every branch of business. Elect Gen.

Tremendous Township Iteetig,p,,, The Buttered Watermelon Party Sick Torchlight Parade and Speeches The largest lowest:llp wetting ever hell In an political history of Lehigh was the great Republi can demonstration at Ironton Tuesday n gut. TLo enthusiasm was so great and tuarked,that a strati ger Rresent would have hardly credited the state theni of the Republican party being In a minority where a mere township meeting was attended by such unusual numbers. In front of the hotel of Horace Banta, Esti , an etcollent stand to speak from bad been erected, and every other arrange.: Went that was nectlssary to promote the good el feet of the occasion, was carefully attended to by Mr. Al. Daniel., of the North Whitehall Republi can Executive Committee. ' W. K. Runs, Chief Engineer The visiting delegations present were 150 men equipped and carrying torches from Catusauqua, 75 from Ilukendauqua, and 9.1 from Copley. Ac companying those lu procession from the above named places werebetweca two and three bestir, d men who came to see the demonstration and to hear the speeches, and In the character of both they could not have been disappointed. In and about Ironton the effect of a turnout of this kind, in a comparatively small village, will be to show the opposition the earnest manner in which the Republicans aro carrying this campaign on, and what strength we can turnout when an attempt is made. The meeting was organized by electing Mr. Franklin Mickley, of North Whitehall, President, and choosing a largo number of gentlemen ns Vice Presidents, and two an Secretaries. '1 he speakers of the evening were Maurice L. Kauffman, Eq., Capt. Geo. W. Curry, of Phila delphia, Dr. T. C. Yeager, In German, and Janie!. S. Blery, Esq., In the order In which wegive them. All the addresses were earnest and forcible state ments of facts, and were pr4ared evidently from careful data ; and as C Lpt. Curry Is the only gen [lemon not familiar ou the stump to the people of our city and county, we give a succinct abstract of his speech. He said ho had come to Irontm from Philadel phia to have a plain, common sense talk with workingmen like himself, but he had expected to ilud In a country viligge no such large meeting as this, which In size, would do hocor to the party In his own city. He had received his education In a workshop and had graduated with a hammer hi his hand and the trade of ,a boiler maker, and us he felt that the grand old Republican party was the party that protected his class of men and was of the greatest benefit to him, he wanted to say a word in her behalf without any attempt at oratory. In the South,before the war,enpital was control. ling and pressing down labor, and the men who owned slaves were trying to extend their rub. North, and when the war broke out the spaike, was Induced to consider the Interests Involved In the contest to the workingmen. lie had surveyed the situation and had decided that the side for workingmen to be on was that of the Notthorhere be laborlug mau was roweled and paid fur tile labor, and under the benign rule of the Republi can party the condition of the working men In America was better to-day than It bad been ever before To show the danger tif the industrial interests of the country by having a Vice-President whb to in sympathy with Free Trade, presiding In the Sen ate of the United States, the speaker instanced and made a very strong point Indeed out of the cage of the administration of James K. Polk and George M. Dallas. These two men were nominated on really a Free Trade platform, and at that time the Iron works all over 0111 State and country were closed, our labor brought Into competition with the pauper labor of. Europe, thousands of working men all over this country, and especially Penn sylvaola, almost begging bread because they could not earn a decent living. It was feared they could not carry Pennsylvania, and without the electoral vote of the old Keystone State there was no show for them, so fiiiorge M. Dallas declared himself In favor of a Protective Tariff, and at all the eroee-roads In tble State. IL wall posted up that • George_ M. Dallas, or Philadelphia, would, If clotted, protect the industries of his State In every way he coals. Pork and Dallas were elected, and then a petition was laid at the feet of Cougrese, by a committee 01 workingmen, Betting forth that they were being brought to the verge of starvation by the Free Trade policy of the Government, and praying in too name of God and their families for a Protective Tariff. A bill laying a tariff was brought upend passed the House of Representatives. And now, mark you, workingtnen,what a Vlce•Presldent can do against your interests and how he can take the bread out of your mouths. A tie vote in the Senate left the decision of Tariff or no Tariff to the presid• log officer ; and George M. Dallas falsely and out rageously went back on his promises and ;vote. against tariff: That the power Gratz Brown would bave;and the seven hundred Democrats who sold their party out at Baltimore for the Mikes which Greeley le bound to give them,arc trying to make people believe that it can't make any difference to Tariff whether Gratz Brown is elected or not. This Liberal-Democratic Buttered-Watermelon party that has sold out to Free Trade nod Horace Greeley, got up a terrible fuss at first, and set uj a tidal wave that was to sweep the whole country but It " bursted" like a soap bubble as soon as ii came lu contact with a fresh.breeze of Republi eardrum In North Carolina. They were like the fellow who took a three-mile run to jump over or eight rail fence—he lost all his wind before he go, there. The Captain's speech woe the strongent appeal to workingmen we have ever heard on the stump, and as he is to be in this city on the Square to night, we want all the workingmen In this city and vicinity to turn out and hear what one who is Identified with them In every respect, a hard-tilted son of toil, has to say upon the views of the cum palgu, and his cogent reasons for supporting the whole Republican ticket. TIIE STRAIORT•OUT DEMOCRACY IN MONT OOMERY COUNTY.

Last evening as the Buffalo express came to this place It was suddenly thrown from the track on account of a misplaced switch. A coal train had been retarded at this place Just n. little before the Buffalo was due and unable to get out of the way, so one of the brakesmen turned a switch to turn the Buffalo on the other track, and failed to turn the other. At this moment the Buffalo came thundering along at the rate of 40 miles an hour on and over the perilous place which seemingly was to utter destruction. Fortunately the en gine, J. CI. Fell, kept the main track and by the heroic exertion of the englucer and brakeman the train was eloped Joni as the engine got on the iruu trestling, where It .unk partly,and from which place It was•emovee this morning. The front passenger and baggage car were comiderably smashed, hut nu pine war burt, but tho severe and sudden ehr.ck grat , y frightened the pastengers and delay( d their prog res for several hoots.

SOWDEN'S CHALLENDIC.—Our sanguiue District Attorney has thrown down the gauntlet t Gen. Hancock, on the subject of l.barles It. Buckalew's war record, If he means anything by the letter signed by him and publhbed last week. It was a dangerous move to make, for la a case so patent as the animus of the votes cast by Chas. It. Ilueltalew during the moat trying times of the war, Gen. Hancock requilres butte reference to the Globe and a the of any of the leading newspapers of the time, to show that In the exceptional In stances lu which BuCkalew voted apparently on the right side, It wan done with the plain and un mlstukgble end in vidw of hampering and embar rassing the action of the government, and if car ried would have been dinastious. It is useless at this day to talk to the people of Pennsylvania about Beet:dew% loyally during the war,heceuse his record Is as rotten as wormwood and what has been charged against him has been traced directly, and beyond peradventure of doubt, to his doorl; and our District Attorney by extending a ebal• tup.as3. COPLAY, August 20th, 1872 lenge that will bring übont a public discussion of this question, lays himself open to being pla,ed In a very ridiculous and mortilying position before this community. In the Orst place his position Is untenable, and be takes his stand In the disputa tion against a gentleman of thorough education and accustomed to the practice of debate. The follow lug Is the Gmetal's reply : PHILADEIXIIIA, Augu.t 20, 1872. To the Editor of the Chronicle. After I had gotten into the cite at Bethlehem •esturday afternoon, a boy placed In my bands a utter purporting to be it ritten from Allentown, dated August 24th, and signed by one Wm. 11. Sow-den, late private In Company D., 128th Reg. Pa. Vole. To add to his Importance the envelope In which it was eiteloged bad printed on the upper loft hand c. mei', "If nut called for In ten Jaye rc. turn to Wm. 11. Sou—den, Attorney at Law, Al lentown, Pa." And printed at the top of the hull sheet on which the letter is written; Is, "Mee of District Attorney Wm. 11. Bow—Jcu, Allentown, Va." If this letter was written on the 24th, why did not Wm. H. Bow—den, late private in Co. 123 th Reg. Pd. Vols., Attorney at Law, and D•I -trict Attort ey, deliver it in perron.on Sunday morning when I was sitting on the porch in front of this Allen House, and he wan Mating about challenging me to a public discussion In the bar room of the same hotel. This letter, written for political capital, wants too to diners with Wm. H. Bow—den, late private to Cr. D, 128th Reg., Pa. Vols., and Attorney at Law, and Dktrlet Attorney, the record of Mr. Charles R. Bochaiew as stated by mein my speech in Allentown on daturday evening last. The elm- pleat way will be for Wm. 11. Bow-den, late pri vate lu Co. D:; Vaal 11.. g., Pa. Vole and Attor ney at Law, and District Attorney, to call his neighbors and friends together, and with the Cow ongesionsc Gona,•the record of Mr. Charles R. Buctalew.whilei in the U. B. Senate, disprove the statements I made. It would no doubt gratify Wen. D.Fow-den, late private In Co. - U, 128th Ileg., Pa.

IhO WORK—The' largest amount of work ever turned out of the Rope Rolling Mill, In this city, In. tlx days, was Accomplished last week, amounting to nlnetyslx atAR Ulf tang. We con• gratulate the uew.managem cot on i.. successful conduct of the mill thus fur, and give exP"n o ^" to our hearttelst wishes that it may be coutinue,:'. ON Saturday night last a coalition meeting wax• held at the public house of John Wise, In 'New Texas, which was addressed by the follow lug speakers from this city : lion. John 0.

Rupp, E , il Mr. More prepared for the speakers a stepper con sisting principally of eels, fried, boiled and lite w t d, which was discussed with relish. A NEW ore bed has just been uncovered on the farm of Mr. Isaac 'faints, In Upper Macuegle township. Tho bed promises to be one of the richest In the township, the ore (hematite) token out being of the best, while the supply is believed to be Inexhaustible. The bed was opened by Mr. F. G. Halter., a son of the owner; and It to at one. , to be supplied with the necessary machinery and worked to the fullest extent. The Carbon Iron Co. Is to have the ore. LOADINO of canal boats at Mtsuch Chunk and Coalport Is much better now than It has been nt any time during the present boating season. The Iron and frelaht business is not quite so brisk, ow ing to the different Iron malts being vLry nearly all supplied with their annual demand. D tring the season It hue been the ulna of every boatman to carry the heaviest cargo, several boats having been made to carry 108 tons, and last week one boot, commanded by Capt. John Kerkcntbat, was loaded with 115 tons. FIBEIERM Form.—On Friday night last, four Jolly fishermen, from this city, went fishing to Schreiber's dam on the Little. Lehigh: They went In force, prepared to do the thing up right, and under promise to supply all their nelghhms with messes. Bating four hundred hooks on lines and manipulating them nearly the whole night, they caught exactly six eels, one cat-fish and one grass.plke. They didn't mean to tell anybody about the excursion, but It leaked out, as such bad luck alwdys does. When they'll try the fortune of the water again, has not yet been determined. WILL Da FIIIIsnhLD•—The Ritteraville Driv ing Park Association's new track will be grade.) sad ready for use by IVednesday night of this week. This course, In the hands of the gentle men who have subscribed the stock establishing it, is destined to be an Important Inducement to the lovers of stock hereabouts, to keep the fastest kind. Now a half tulle track,of the beet grading and material, has been provided for their exercise and training, and there Is no reason why our trot ting horses should not snake better time tins n'they have hitherto been able to attain.

As publkhed in our papers the School Board of this city decided In a recent meeting to make the Germ in language one of the branches of the schol ar's study. We are very glad that this very Im portant language will be introduced into our schools, ant we aro not of opinion that there is any necalsity of showing the usefiluess of study ing this language. A fact is, we cannot do with out It. The men of hu.iness, the men of art and science, the pre .ehers, teachers, in short all liv ing and thiPiclug men lu Peunsylvanla, ought to speak, veld and write both the English and Ger man language. That is what the Board was nm• vinced of, when coming to the above mentioned resolution. But another and most Important question Is,/tow the study of the Germ to must he carried on, . In what manner It should be treated, etc. Two or three hour• a week In a language as difficult as the Garman la, small ha scarcely of any benefit to our children; the very least would be one, les son every day, would amount to Ilse lemons a week. Ur language shall be .tudied righ , nut only a+ an exp•rhuent, there must be lessons In reading, smoking, translating, grammar, compo talon, and at last her attire. In Professor F.
