Within a week work will be begun towards the construction of the furnace and ne cessary buildings, which will be pushed toss early completion as possible. 0011 Cher OF CItItEALiI FOR 1872.—The Oc tober report of the Agricultural Department In forms us that the wheat crop of the country this year Is estimated at 240,000,000 bushels, or 10,- 000,000 more than for the preceding year, and the quality Is also much better. The department esti mates the Indian corn crop of the United States to be eight per cent. above the average. The Yield of oats Is eAlmated to be not quite 205,000,- 000 bushels. Barley Is reported-as not likely to be less, but poorer than last year, and rye two per cent. less In quantity than last year, though gen erally good. This Is certainly very encouraging, and ought to effectually'put a atop to all specula tion and cornering. SOLDIEII,S' ORPEIANB.—Th ' e number of sol diers' orphans under the cats of the State has un dergone no diminution the past four years, the places of those leaving the schools by reason of having salved at the prescribed age of sixteen years or for other causes being filled by others old enough to claim admission. In the years 1868, 1860, 1870 and 1871 between 3,000 and 3,700 or phans was educated and supported under the law providing for the establishment of thosoldiers' or phan department, and during the current year the number has been about the same. The monthly admissions reach from tbirty-flve to forty. The yearly expense of the State in keeping up the or phan school system amounts to from p 450,000 to 0300,000, which sum will probably be greatly re duced within the nett two or three years; and in the course of five or six years the number of or phans will have become so small as to render the department created for their benefit unnecessary. THE LF-GWREGISTEB,. ALLENTOWN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1872. • Moan is now being said about the new Postal Card System ab . ont to be Introduced Into this country. The object Is to give to the people cheaper. postal rates, but there tenably Is no greater convenience In using a Postil Card than there le In dropping a short note, except less the trouble of sealing thq latter. We believe that be fore the innovation will be appreciated the people will have to be eduCated Into the advantages It has with It, for certainly they are very dubious when first looked at. It is understood, we be- (lave, by January the new cards will bo ready for use, and can be had at any post office. • EXTENSIVE Improvements are to be made to the lower portion of the American Hotel. The bar and the clerk's desk will be removed, and the partition at that point will be taken down, this giving more' office room. The clerk's desk will be put up at the north-east corner of the room and the bar will be removed to the store adjoining, in the front part of which will be the hotel barber shop. Doors will lead from the present bar room into the new bar room'and barber shop, the en. trance to the billiard room will be changed, and the cigar stand Will remain as at present. This effort to add to the attractiveness of the American will increase the general popularity of Mine Host Newhard. ANTIQUITY ow BUCKWHEAT CAKES. —A paragraph has been going the rounds of the press sloes the buckwheat cake season was inaugurated which claims that the detectible but itch-inducing article of diet was wholly unknown until some time during the sixteenth century. In a book published In the twelfth century, 'entitled "Ye De• lightekof ye . Breakfast Table," the following oc curs : "Ye corns named Ruckwheateapon whych ye Deere dothe much love to fede, ye deemed to forme cakes of myghtye wideness. Ye boyled Bape of ye Lyndeu (maple) Tree :lathe much ym prove them. Bade etomaked ones say that to eat of these :loth cause them much ecratchynge, but this fayles to atop the eatynge of theme." IN a letter to the Reading Times & Dispatch, Mr. Henry Eckert of that city, a gentleman large ly interested in the manufacture of iron, says be sincerely believes that the average cost of iron ore delivered at the furnaces In Pennsylvania is $7. per ton, or two and one half tone to a ton of iron ; which, be goes on to'say, is a fair average, and makes the cost of ore in a ton of iron $17.50. To this is to be added the cost of coal, limestone, labor and other expense of manufacture, which aggregated with the cost of ore foots up an ex pense of manufacture that excludes an extraor dinary margin to furnaces at the present prices of iron. The furnace men at present, however, are very well satisfied hereabohts with the profits of their business. EXCITEMENT IN' EXPRESS CIRCLEB.—An Investigation has been going on in Express circles In this city, for a day or two concerning the tam pering with a package of money, out of which more than $l,OOO were lost or stolen. It appears that six years ago, $1,900 were sent from the oil regions to Lancaster county, to purchase some land, but when the sender of the money reached that locality he could come to no agreement, and thereupon ordered his package, which had not been taken out of the office at Lancaster, back to the oil region, and when It got there it contained $6OO. The point in dispute is, which of the com panies that had It in charge is responsible, and the investigation now in progress is to ascertain this fact, by discovering, if possible, where the tampering with the package occurred,all of which is the peculiar business of I awyers.—.9. Journal. BURNING OUT CHlMNEYB.—Ohlonneys should be attended to every autumn, if we would avoid the fright of their taking fire. Many a valuable homestead has been destroyed from negligence in this matter. Boot accumulates very rapidly, and much sooner with. some kinds of coal than others, and there is also a difference In wood. If a chim ney takes fire, the readiest means to stop it is to apply a wet table cloth, hearth rug or blanket to the whole front of the grate or fireplace, and either hold or pin it close into the jamb, then lift up the bottom far enough to throw a pall of water on the fire. If a pistol Is fired up a chimney It will bring down quantities of soot, and it is an easy way to clean a small chimney. A few hand fuls of salt thrown into the fire-place or the grate will put out the fire. Flour or sulphur thrown upon the fire will also paralyze the flames. AN EXCELLENT IMITATION—BE ON YOUR Guann.—An Imitation of a fifty-cent fractional currency note has been brought to our notice. The Imitation will very easily deceive those who are not warneed that there is such a bogus note in circulation. Upon theface of the note the lines of the letters are dull and murky. The Inscrip tion reads: "The,people of the United States will pay fifty cents for one-half dollar,whenever it is due In the United States." Upon the back of the note is engraved : "This paper is not exchangeable for United States notes by the Assistant Treasurers and designated depository' of the United States in sums not lees than throe dollars, not receivable In payment of all duets tothe United Statee,less than five dollars,not excepting costume." Thus it will be seen that the imitation is calculated to be passed upon the unwary, and we therefore put our readers upon their guard. BOARD OF TRADE.—The mooting of this body, on Monday week, was very largely at tended, which Miami that sufficient interest le taken in the organization to make Its work effec tive. Ono of the most Important motions Intro duced was ono recommending that the Board of Control provide a night school for the accommo dation of those desiring to"avall themselves of the chances of education and who cannot attend in the day time. We consider this an Important movement, which cannot receive the too earnest, and careful consideration of the Board of Control. lore. We are confident that thereare many young men in this city, now earning their (Min living, who have bad oocasion to regret that they never had the proper opportunity to attend school, and who would now be only too glad to bayou chance of mastering those branches of study which their every-day experience proves so essential to them. ' If the Board of Control will devise means to sup ply this want, they will ha doing. lhat which will be a credit to the city and a blessing to those 'it Immediately benefits. 78,617 16 3,734.014 13 83,215 04 2,051,845 13 1,082,109 00 4,507 08 Ton Pittsburgh newspapers speak of an im pending coal famine, occasioned by the miners' strike and the horse disease. Housekeepers in that city complain that they are forced "to pay from twenty-live to forty cents for stymy bushel delivered at their doors." Persons invmoderate circumstances aro full of apprehension; the stock of coal on hand Is rapidly diminishing; the pit mules are prostrated ; the miners ' strike Is obsti nately maintained; and these are the reasons of the frightful price demanded, If not an excuse for them. The Pittsburgh Post thinks that If this le to be maintained it wt.! justify an Imme diate accession to the demands of the miners. Still, they might bo Induced to go to work et the old rates if a proper representation were made to them of the wants of the people, and they could be sure that 15 cents per bushel would not be do t-Minded by the dealer at first hands and 90 cents for delivery. A. this point, Mr. Chas. Armstrong, ad extensive coal dealer of Pittsburg, has come fdrward with an offer. He is ready, if the Penn sylvania Central Railroad Company will furnish him the flat cars, to bring In from 4,000 to 0,000 bushels of coal per diem, mad pay the freight, de livering the coal at nine and a half cents per bushel. This solves the difficulty, It Is declared, and places the responsibility upon the road. PirnnoneL. —The Philadelphia Press of last Friday published brief sketches of some of the prominent Ph iladelphla delegates to the Constitu tional Convention. Among whom It Is stated that J. Gillingham Fell was born In Bucks coun ty, on the 14th of November, 1810. ' After receiv ing an education in schools under the direction of the direction of the Society of Friends, In tho spring of 1833, Mr. Fell entered an engineer corps In the employ of the Beaver Meadow Railroad Company. In 1841 bejoined Ids present partner, A. P trdee, In the general coal andishipping bus ices,, and In 1843 went to Philadelphia to take charge of the business there. Mr. Fell bad been a director of the Lehigh Valley Railroad prior to its completion and during its construction, and was Presidedt for four years, being first elected In 1857. He has been a director In the North Pennsylvania Railroad since Reorganization. He has large interests in the coal and Iron produc tions of the Lehigh Valley, and Is a dlreetor In several of the companies. Ho was President of the Union League for four years, first elected In 1804, and is now the Vice President. He Is a member of the Board of City Trusts, a director of the Philadelphia Nationarßank, the Pennsylva nia Fire Insurance Company, aqd the Fidelity Trust. . . Tan depot at Fern Dale is. receiving Its finishing touches, and will soon be occupied. The building Is 22 by 2a feet la'thiensions,and divid ed into two rooms, the one facing the street will be used•as the freight department, .and the lower room for the office and passengers. Ts n Thomas Iron Company is the moat en terprising corporation, Is said, in the Lehigh Valley In spreading its branches over different and distant states. Already it owns thousands of acres of coal and ore lands In New York, Penn sylvania and Alabama, runs furnaces In all three states and still keeps on adding to its possessions. Its resources in iron ore and coal are today inex haustible by Its furnaces, and will supply mate rials for years to come. At Hokendanqua the work of IMprovement and change is constantly gob* on, although the stockholders receive large dividends. Au the furnace companies are doing well, even the Batmen with all Its misfortuumbut for "push" the Thomas Iron Campany carries the palm. . Otin STREETS haie again a more lively ap pearance, and the Epizootic epidemic seems be abating. Some of our business men were com plaining exceedingly of dullness of trade, owing to the horse disease, which in our estimation is in part a mistake. Advertising Is the life of trade, and those who are freely using printer's ink have been doing a lively trade. In making our daily rounds for locale, we have observed the " Mam moth Stores" of E. B. Shiner & Co. doing an im mense trade this season. We noticed this morn ing large rolls of Mahon five-frame body Brussels Carpet for the rooms of the Cashier and President of the Allentown National Bank. Also, Cocoa Matting for the large and capacious banking room.' This enterprising firm is doing a very brisk trade in this department. Their Carpet Hail on the second floor of the "Mammoth Stores," 705 and 707 Hamilton St., Allentown, Pa., is the largest, and their stock the most varied in this City and Valley. Wo would recommend those fitting out their new mansions, or replenishing, to give them a call, as their stock is foil and com plete in every particular, and will bo sold at New York, Boston and Philadelphia prices. ltdmw Inotv.—The follow log is what the Iron Age says about the leen business la this vicinity : In the State of Pennsylvania the Increase In furnace capacity, especially In the Lehigh Valley,has been considerable. The Thomas Iron Co., at Hoken dengue, are building two superior furnaces, 18 feet bosh'aod 67 feet high, to be put In blast early next year. Their capacity will po about 12,500 tons each. The Allentown Iron Company have built a furnace this year at Allentown,6o feet high and 16 feet width of bosh. It Is now in blast, and will make about iii,croo tons of Iron per annum. The Lehigh Iron Co., also of Allentown, have built a new furnace, now in blast, of the same di. mensloos as that last described. Four miles west of Allentown, the Emaus Iron Co. have lately put a new furnace In blast ; size and capacity the same as the last two named. Between Bethlehem and Freemansburg the Northampton Iron Co. aro building a furnace, with a capacity for about 10,- 000 tons production, and the Bethlehem Iron Co. have undertaken the buildicg of two new furna ces, of which we hope to obtain more particular information when the work shall have progressed further. We also learn that a furnace is propos ed at Millerstown, nine miles west of Allentown, but we believe the project has not yet taken defi nite shape. RATS IN SCRANTON.—Scranton Is overrun with rate, and the citizens are at their wits' end to know how to get rid of them. The rodents are very bold in their depredations, even going so far as to attack horses. One gentleman stated to a reporter of the Republican that for several morn ings he had noticed blood on the bedding of his horse, but paid little attention to it, supposing that the animal had injured himself by kicking at night. On Sunday last the beddleg was found completely saturated with blood, and a friend was milled in to assist the owner of the horse In discovering the cause. On examination they found that both the horse's hind feet had been nibbled by the rats. They first attacked the:hoof at the heel cork, and ate to the top of the hoof and around it. There is a vein running down the leg of the horse to the hoof, and If thlels opened the animal is liable to bleed to death. This vein the rats had eaten Into, but fortunately it was discovered In time and the proper steps taken to check the flow of blood. They had also attacked the fore feat of the horse In the same way, and nibbled the skin and flesh partly around the hoofs. It is stated that since the strike of the miners the rats bare all left the mines nod the adjacent buildings, whore there Is now nothing for them to eat, and this probably accounts for their raid on Scranton. OBITUARY.—On Friday afternoon, at fifteen manatee past one o'clock, James W. Fuller died at his residence in Catasanqua, after a protracted illness of two years, resulting from 'partial para lysis. He was M. years of age. Mr. Fuller In his beet days was one of the strongest men in Pennsylvania politics for a num ber of years ; and the elements of his strength consisted chiefly in an unyieldinedeterminailon, a clear head, a close mouth, a contempt for office and the money of the Pennsylvania Railway Com-, rainy. Always true to his political friends he gained their confidence and for using his party and his friends with care and profit he never had his equal. He wan constituted to take an active part in life, and politics offered Just the field he could exercise his great talents In. It lea favor ite remark.with his admirers that "Jim" Fuller, as he was familiarly known, ruled Pennsylvania prior to his sickness, but whether he or any other politician ever did or can do that•ls doubtful. In Mr. Fuller's death the Republica❑ party loses a staunch adherent and a liberal supporter. AB a citizen Mr. Fuller was benevolent and anx ious for the welfare and happiness of all around him. His charity was largo and many poor men In Catasanqua and elsewhere will testify that in James W. Fuller their best friend Is dead. His kind acts were always done privately and oaten tattoo In any form he always avoided. lie loved the reality of power, not Its show ; ho exercised benevolence because of the good It would do, and not "to be seen of men." His Mae a member of the community was blameless, although be never, until the last, took any real interest In religion as a personal matter. Ho leaves a family of four children, two sons and two daughters, an grown. One of bin peculiarities in life was that although living In an Iron district and town, he never would Invest any of hie large means in the iron business or in stacks. The valuable estate he leaves, estimated variously from three to five bun dred thousand dollars, Is mostly Invested In real ty, we are told. The Amoral takes plaecou Monday next, at 1 o'clock, p. m.,'from MB late residence In Cats sauqua, on Front street. ANOTHER SURGICAL BinOxas.—Last week Dr. Detweller, of Easton, assisted by Drs. C. H. & C. D. 'Martin, of this city, Dr. Henry Heller, of Hellertown, Dr. Erdman; of M illerstown, and oth ers of the profession, performed another of those wonderful operations for the removal of stone (rem the bladder, known to the profeselmi as inhotomy: Mr. John Mattern, of Millerstown, a gentleman 72 years of age, who had suffered from the malady for years, and upon whom an unsuccessful opera tion to remove the stones was performed a few years ago by the medical faculty of one of our standard universities, was the subject this time. As we have said on a previous occasion, this operation is the most delicate and difficult known to the profession, and is undertake 4 generally only by the experts at the head of the medical universities' in the country. ThM is the filth operation of the kind perform ed by the three fire teamed surgeons within the limits of Lehlgh'and Northampton counties dur ing the past few years, the four previous ones having resulted in complete cures and this one promisee to terminate equally as happy although the stone removed measures Ate Inches in elrcum ference. This Is another evidence of the fact that our imme diate neighborhood Is possessed of the highest or der olakill hi that profession which need not ap ply to the eminent surgeons of the medical uni versities for assistance In the moat skillful opera tions the physicians are called not to perform. EPJZOOTIO.—Thosa homes In Allentown which are under homeopathic treatment for the epizootic are doing remarkably well. The disease seems to bare' passed Its worst stages in this city. Charles Losch'e horses show signs of great im provement, and some give the opinion that his stable lithe best In Allentown. The Columbia horses are doing eetraordlnarlly well, The driver dote not believe In exercising them.. The disease prevails to a large extent among the bories of Washington township. This has canoed' no stoppage in the elate elnrfloss the hauling being done by the open. MESSRS NOMA St nIIODA, of this city, havo the contract to repair the Iron shooting at tho Gall eon Iron Works. Mn. STINRIMIGER and his team of oxen are always recognized by the people wherever they make their appearance. Tho boys do some times shout. THE project of founding an Academy of Natural Scienco In Allentown •*net not be forgot ten by our citizens. It Is a moral work In which all should share. • A. NUMBER of young machinists in Scrim. ton, commanding the highest wages, have left for Peru,. Booth America, to work fo'r the South American Railroad Company. They made it con tract for two years, at 1150 per month. THE FINE Awrs.—None of our renders when to Philadelphia, should 'neglect . vialtirm Earle's Galleries of Paintings. Their collection of Oil Paintings, Chromos, Rogers' Groups, etc., is now very complete, having been specially ar ranged and selected for the holiday season, au announcement of which is made •in another col umn. Those In search of gifts for Christmas and New Tears can secure some rare novelties at Earle's Establishment. TUE boiler makers and masons are busily engage! In repairing the recent damage done to the stack of the Baucon Iron Company's furnace at Bingen. The stack Is to be raised six sheets, about twenty feet, higher than it was before and as the sheeting is riveted, the lining Is put right in and the masons follow up with their part of the work, so that the whole repair will be accom plished at about the same time in all Its parts. As the capacity of the furnace is to be Increased, some of the money lost In the accident and delay will be made up, and we take occasion herewith to hope that the Baucon Company's period of his derance is past, and to acknowledge the enter prising pluck of the Conway In improving their works at expense after two most disastrous acci dents. • _ ACCIDENT AND DEATEL—An accident oc• Burred on Tuesday afternoon at about 3 o'clock by which Joseph Baumgardner, brakeernan on one of the shifting engines at the Lehigh Iron Com pany's Works met his death. The' engine was running on the siding which leads from Alneyville to the East Penn. Junction, when Baumgardner attempted to jump on It; bnt he slipped and the engine run over him. He was promptly attended to by Doctor B. S. Apple, but not much could be done for him, his 'death occurring at 5 o'clock. Frequently be had been told tot to Jump on the engine when It was In motion, but by disregard. log the admonitions he at last was killed. His mother resides at Pottsville, but he was living with his brother at Alneyville. Coroner Moser held an inquest at 8 o'clock last night, the Jury returning a verdict in accordant with the above facts, and exonerating the engineer from all blame.. MUSICAL. —Mr. John Holster (formerly with the Formes-ilableman Opera Company,now leader of the Philharmonic Society of Easton)who Is engaged In teaching the piano-forte In Easton, has consented at the solicitation of a number of friends bore, to give piano lessons in 'Allentown during a portion of the week, provided be gets sufficient scholars to make It worth while. There fore hereafter, on Monday and Saturday after noons until further notice, parties desiring the services of Mr. lioister cab arrange with him per sonally at the Cross Keys Rotel, between the hours of three and six o'clock. Mr. Holster's competon' y as an initructor and performer 'on the piano receives so cordial an en dorsement from the best people of Easton that we need not refer tq It here, except to state that lila musical education was acquired principally In Berlin, Prussia. Since his arrival in this country he has tilled various engagements in Opera Com panies and has given his whole time to the culti vation of his art. We hope that a class may be formed for him In Allentown and that our young people may take advantage of the opportunity now offered. FOUND. —We noticed the fact on Saturday last that Mrs. Herman YOch bad left ber home and no one know where she bad gone. The Insane woman went down to the residence of Mr. Seel Lewis at the Allentown Furnace and going In an nounced tier Intention of staying there. She took dinner and assisted In washing' the dishes as nat urally as though she had always lived In the fam ily. Mr. Franz Xander In the meanwhile In formed Chief Kleckner of the whereabouts of Mrs. Tech, and he with Officers Schmidt and Thomas got the unfortunate creature Into a wagon and took her to the Poor House. It required some patience to Induce her to go with them,but as she took a great fancy to Capt. Kleckner and pro posed to marry him forthwith, that officer con sented, and the pair accompanied by Officer Thomas went out to the k'oor House to get mar ried. Having arrived there and given Mrs. Yoch in charge of the authorities. Capt. Kleckner got away by saying he was going after a priest to per form the ceremony. Mre. Yoch le now cared for by the couuty,and her Insanity which under proper treatment by her husband might have bees cor rected, now appears to be almost hopeless. AN OPPORTUNITY TO BLAKE MONEY.- Tbe farm of the late Edward Sehrelber,southwest of the city, which Is soon tobu sold at public sale, It appears to us will offer a good opportunity for successful speculation. We understand that It will be sold entire, or will be cut up into small tracts to enable a number of persons to have a chance to purchase sites for suburban homes. The property is beautifully situated, it - ls the soil is good, and it Is at an easy distance from the business portion of the city. Those,eugaged In business which requires close confinement, woul.l fled this locality a pleasant place for a residence, and the change of air, and the ride or walk to and from business would be conducive to' health. With two or three acres of ground suffi cient garden produce could be raised to supply a family, and as the owner could have the advert oage of supplying himself with the best varieties f vegetables and could always *we them fresh, be would soon find that this alone would be suf ficient compensation , for whatever of city coave• niences he would forfeit. . THE clerks °fill° Allentown National Bank were compelled to do considerable night work to complete their arrangements. Their handsome banking room, hcfWever, le fully appreciated by them, and they are glad to be in one of the finest, most cheerful and most convenient buildings in the State.

The pistol accidentally went off and the ball passed through Sigmund's hand and cheek into his mouth, with serious though not fatal etV.et. Voigt was thrown into jail but was re leased yesterday, as the injured man was free to admit that Volgt had no intention of shooting him and that the whole affair was an accident.
