It. was thrown from the track by a misplaced switch, below the bridge over Second street, and the engine managed to run across the bridge on the planks. Hut the cars got twk-ted up on the bridge when the eugme stopped just over it, and six of them were smashed more or less badly, three being thrown over the bridge on the Street, ob structing the city railway truck. The railroad track was not torn, but the columns on the ricer side of the bridge will have to be replaced, as they were badly broken up.

Junction. Coming from above was a coal train, unobserved by the German and neither did the engineer see him un til the engine was nearly on top of him. When within a few feet of the German, and when his death seemed to be Inevitable, the rygnal for down brakes was blown. The German turned quickly round and as It appeared to those on the train that he would be mangled by the engine, he Jumped upon the bumpers and was carried below the Junction, by which time the hands succeeded in stopping the train. lie was not Injured, for tunately, and us ho descended to the ground, ho coolly remarked to the engineer, " I lost mein hat and mein gettle, but I sated mein pipe, ha, ha !" FIIIBT AIM MEETINO.—The very large meeting held at the house of J. Allen Trexler, In the First Ward,Friday r.ight,was composed chiefly of workers in Iron, whose attention to everything that was said Indicated a sincere desire on their part to do their voting in Oetoner end November conscientiously anti Intelligently. Of the five hun dred assembled, there were probably not twenty persons who will fall to support the living priu triples of the great Republican party at the polls, when the proper time arrives. Mr. Trexler had prepared a stand on the west side of his hotel, from which the meeting was held, and the walls of the house being wide and broad, the sound of the speakers' voices was thrown with flue acoustic effect to the limits of the crowd. More we go any further, let us offer our congratulations to the Republicans of the First Ward on their splendid ward demonstration. Wm. li. Alney, Esq., of the Second Ward, was called upon to preside over the meeting, and mode a few scathing and condemnatory strictures of the slanderous and villifying policy adopted by our opponents in this canvass, proving that they were compelled to resort to these vile practices became they had nothing else upon which they could argue their case. 1.1 On. Miles Hainphreys was then Introduced, and delivered a deliberate and plain argument, showing what Interest the work ing claims had In supporting the Republican . ticket. Mr. Humphreya labored somewhat under the embarrassment of a cold, but all could hair him, and paid the closest attention to his remarks. Mr. John L.

Wilson, Esq., of Allentown, made a ch at the Democratic dem onstratiou In New York. When he was Introduced considerable ex citement was produced, the Impression being • pread from man to Man that he was a relative of lmnator Wilson 2 ;.but after he had spoken a short time the mistake was discovered. CONFEREE MEETING. —The Conferees of Lehigh and Carbon counties met Sep' ember 14, 1372, In the Law Library In the Court House, at Ilentown. There were present Gen. Wm. Lilly and F. A.

C. W. CHAPMAN, Sec'y THE TERSE MILL TAx.—We are Informed, upon reliable authority, that the Commissioners contend they have authority for collecting the tL ree mill tax on occupations, and have therefore Instructed their collectors to collect the tax Of cf.urse the collectors are bound to obey the Com missioners, and the people most submit or stand a suit. It Is something beyond our cotnprehension, especially as the following letter says they have no law to sustain them in the assessment of the MEI AUDITOR GENERAL'S OFFICE, HARRISBURG, PA., July 80, 1872 Dear Sir:—ln reply to yours I would state tlmre is no law allowing, the collection canny taxes for estate purposes on professions, trades or occupa tions; the Actof Assembly of June 2,1871, repeals all former laws in reference to the assessment and collection of theabove mentioned taxes. I enclose you copy of the Act. The Commissioners of your county were furnished with a copy of the =ante as Is enclosed to you. Respectfully yours. J. A. WAGGONER, for J. F. Hartrauft, Auditor-lien. In view of the conflict of opinion upon this sub ject we think the Commissioners owe It to the pe Tie to inform them from what source they re ce've authority to assess and collect this tax. Di , 36 it come from a higher power than the Com m( wealth of Pennsylvania? If the Commission er'. do levy upon property to collect this tax, and It II shown that they have no authority In law to do so, the person sued can recover damages from the Commissioners. They can't claim a clerical error on this point I %lAN MEETING AT SLATEDAI.E.—A Repub lican meeting was held at Slatedale, on Thursday at which Lewis J. Roth presided. The first speaker introduced was James 8. Biery, Esq . ., who had a plain talk with the people upon the import ance of looking up the voters and attending to the naturalization of those who are entitled t ciczeuship and have not yet received their second papers. Ile then referred to county matters, giv ing a scourging review of the fearful state of our county Nuances, prophesying that the end of the mi,rule of the Ring, was surely coming. Bucka lea's infamous career during the past twelve years was gone over, bringing to light the damning Ic aw! of one whose hatred of the Government will long be remembered, even after his body is c;m (lived to an unhonered grave. Mr. iluruphreys made a short, though telling speech, eloquent, patriotic and sound. Me was followed by J. L. Deane, EAq., an Irishman from Philadelphia, who made a number of humorous allusions to Horace Greeley, which were greeted with roars of laughter. Ile closed with an clo gavot and beautiful peroration upod the destiny of this Nation under the wise, just and patriotic policy of the Republican party. The meeting ad journed with rousing cheers for the State and National tickets. 1,212,261 00 ItEPORT OF THE INVESTIGATION COMMIT• TEE.—The Committee appointed by the Court to examine into the discrepancy of $5.),000 in the Cot. my Debt Statement, reported to Court, this mm ning, nS 1-0110W8: To the HonoraLte the Judges of the Court of Quar ter "C, ,tons rf Lehigh County: —The undersigned Committee appointed as per annexed recommen dation of the Wood Jury, and order of the Court thereon, beg leave to report that in the discharge of their duty they proceeded to exatalins the books one accounts of the C'ammissioners and the Treas urer, with a view to ascertain the manner of their keeping their accounts, and the general routine of bue:uess prevailing with and between these two ofli:es. To aid no in obtaining a better knowledge than could he had from the book 1, papers, records, she. ' we proceeded to question the two clerks of the Commissioners, viz: —Godfry Peter and Lewis Engelinanatiol the clerk of the several Treasurers, Joseph E. Barnet. The result of our examination of these gentlemen sod the facts ascertained there from will, le the opinion of your committee, be best and. more properly presented in their own lan guage, which Is as follows: (here is reported the evidence in full.) 1 our committee then Proceeded to examine tile lost honk of the Conimisaioners from January 1, 186.1, to January I, 187 i; and after careful exam len sloe we found the same to show the county Indebtedness to be $29,51511 . 9 less than the amount shown by the auditors' report. Wu next proceed ed to ascertain the amount of outstanding loans, by taking the amount the Treasurer had charged himself with from January 1, 1866, to January 1, 1872, and deducting therefrom the amount of can celled bonds and notes as presented to us by the Cotemisslonets,and for which they claimed credit, It I/ j3pearyd that the county indebtedness was $lB,- 592.14 more thee the indebtedness of the county as shown by,the auditors' report. After several ' unsuccessful efforts to ascer ain those discrepan cies and discover, it possible, the cause therefor, we abandoned•the book and account of the Com missioners and proceeded to examine the account of the several Treasurers as kept by their clot it, Joseph E. Balliet, from January 1, 1864, to Jan uary 1, 1872, mid compared the same with the vouchers drawn on him, which we fouud correct, t.xceptin the year 1864, which we foetid the ite gre4att. $5 over, and in the year 1865 895 over, and in 1870 $l7B snort, by which Treasurers account it appears that the outstanding loans or indehtcl ness of the county Is $315,028.05, which is the amount reported by the County Andltors January 1. 1872. The loan account and the records of the but de Rimed, and of those paid off on the part of the Commissioners, should have been equally ex plit it and should be at all times so kept that the county indebtedness could be shown on any day without reference to the account of the County Treasurer, to that or any other account, and so as to have enabled your Committee to have tested by comparison the correctness of the outstanding in debtedness of the county us exhibited 'my the books 01 the respective Treasurer, thus to certify to the same as exhibiting the actual state of the Indebi °daces of the county. • Touching the matter of the Auditors' Report ' for the year v3)(110141871, whereby the Indebtedness of he county is increased about $BO,OOO over that of last year, we have to report that the immediate cause for this dlffereace lies in the fact that the Au Ikons for years 1868, 1860, 1870 brought for. ward the net balance of the Indebtedness of the county for the past year, which net balance was obtained by deducting the cash In baud of Treas urer and all uncollected taxes from the outstand ing indebtedness. Instead of carrying forward the while amount of loans unpaid. Had the commis sioners kept or caused to be kept a record of all the bonds Issued, and an accurate account thereof, and of the bonds paid off, they would have known, as they should have known, and as it was It part of their official duty to know, the true amount of the county indebtedness. Then these mistakes could not !rive happened. However negligent or incompetent Auditors might have been, a correct knowledge ou the part of the former Commissioners of the linauees of the county and Its indebtedness would have real derA this error Impossible, and the service of your committee unceeessary. It Is a proper sub lect of mention that the Commissioners' loan book, prior to 1864, has disappeared and can not be' found, while Mr. Peter, Wu former Clerk, asserts positively that he left it in the Cominisrloners' Oleo at the exptratiOn of his official term. Mr. Elgelmau, his successor, is equally positive that It was not there when he came Into the office, in the year 1867. A tusJority of your committee, understanding the scope of their duties and powers to be limited to the enquiry as to.the true and cor rect amount of the outstatiding indebtedness of the county, January 1, 1872, their examination was not extended beyond an endeavor to ascertialu that fact. All of wbleb arc respectfully submitted. A.,G. Itssitsomt, D. 0. BAYLOR, JAMES WEILER, Coes. W. COOPER, F.G.BERND, WM.B.

EMAUB MEETING.—AIt large meeting was hold at Emans, on last Saturday evening, which was addiussed by Mr. Man k, in German, and Messrs. Diary, Kauffman and Snyder, In English. It was a great success. AN immense Republican meeting was held at Reading, on Thureday night, at which the Allentown Clubs, over 300 strong, were present. Gen. Ihrtranft was there, and so great was the enthusiasm, that ho could not move, or say three words, without being Interrupted with wild ap plause. THE COLD WEATHER, of the past few days, has stirred up people for making extensive pur chases of dry goods. The change has bad a re markable effect upon trade at Kramer's Corner Store where the people go en mane to avail them selves of the great bargains which can be procured there. WE are told of a man's going to Mauch Chunk and asking Judge Packer for pecuniary aid for one of the Democratic Ward Clubs of this city, representing himself as its president. The Judge gave him ono hundred dollars, it Is said, and now it transpires that Instead of being an °Meer of the club he is only a private. Only so the club got the money, though whether It did or not of course we do not know. A Mou-Piticitn nonsg.—Hon. John D. Stiles has purchased John Moser's black horse "Lion," for which he paid $l,OOO. The animal was brought from Canada, and under the excel lent "grub" that Lynn township farmers supply to their animals, he shows now, at the age of seven, a speed considerably better than 2:40.

ETTINGER, Tug crowded suito of our columns to•day forbids the extended report of the gigantic Repub lican demonstration made In the two Ilethlehems on Saturday night last, which we would Iil:u to Rive. The exercise of candor will compel even the bitterest enemies of our cause to acknowledge that the procession was the largest and best of the compalgn on either side, while the perfect order which prevailed and the absence of all drunken ness must extort praise from the same unwilling source. The Republicans of this State are rising up in their might to the support of their candidates, and at the elections will hurl back their slanderers into, the obscurity 'whence they for a time have emerged. There were enough men in line with torches to extend over the distance of nearly two miles, and 118 the long procession was viewed from au els vated standpoint, the windings of the solid col umn of flame and the bright Illumination of the route formed the most magnificent spectacle ever witnessed in this valley, which will continue fresh in the recollection of the people of the Bethlehems for years to come. The exact number of torches In line we will not state, as we did not count them, but any count far below two thousand will, In our Ju Igo:tent, be a small estimate. The meeting 55115 addressed by Mr. II utnphreys, of Pittsburgh, and Win. S. Kirkpatrick, the ablest young lawyer 11l Easton, w hose * remarks were fraught with Interest and full of facts that will not fall to produce favorable results. •We forgot to say that the somewhat novel fea ture of mounted torch-bearetu was preheat and led the procession, to the number of about fifty , and supplied a flue effect. We say fifty, but that la a guess at sight, and we will rely for figures upon the ettimate of Mr. Gochthalk, of the tidbit). hem Timep, whom we 6:IW eountleg.' • Tau. chicken cholera provala with groat mortality In Boolca county.
