A CALL FOR All>.—The Ladies Benevolent Association, is obliged to make an urgent ap peal to the citizens of our town, for aid to carry on its work. The past severe winter has draws so heavily upon our funds, that notwithstanding the liberal support given us in November, our Treasury is exhausted, the unusual number of eases of sickness have demanded our attention; the extream cold weather lias made our coal bills necessarily high; provisions, and clothing though pru dently dealt out, have rapidly used up our money, and in order to prosecute our work we must have help. Our appeals have here tofore been promptly responded to, and we believe the present one will not be unheeded. P.y order of the President, Mrs. Dr. 11. C. PORTER. Mrs. R, M. WELLES, Sec'y. March 2(111', 1881. THE "FRED MKKCUR." —The Ilazelton Sentinel gives a discription of the trial trip of a new engine,—the "Fred Mercur" —just luiilt at the Lehigh Valley shops in that place: It. was designed by Master Mechanic David Clark, and built uiider his personal super vision, and when finished was pronounced a model of perfection and beauty by the best niachanics in the employ of the company. It made a trial trip to Pittston and back last Friday, that fully proves that it is the. best and fastest locomotive now on the Lehigh Valley Railroad. In order to test her speed and strength Master Mechanic Clark, Mas ter Mechanic Drumheller, Superintendent, Mitchell, Superintendent Blakeslec, Fred Mcrcur and several other gentlemen and officials of the company were aboard with tlie engineer, Christ. Fagan on the run up the mountain from Sugar Notch to Fairview, where the grade of the road is ninety-five feet to the mile. There were live passenger cars in the train, being one more than the usual number. At Warrior Run and New port stations the train came to a stop to change passengers, and notwithstanding the fact that an extra car was attached, the train was landed at Fairview station, having made the run from Sugar Notch, a distance of 13 miles in the remarkably short space of 29 minutes. To say that the engine behaved well on the run is a mild way of expressing it. Christ. Fagan was delighted with the manner she steamed and traveled, never be foae attained on the mountain by a locomo sive, and it is needless to say that the trial was high I v satisfactory to Mr, Clark and oth er officials, some of whom, as was reported Saturday, made Christ. Fagan a handsome present. Henceforth the Fred Mercur will be known as tho fastest passenger locomotive yet built in this section of the state. The cyl inders are 20x22 inches, 02 inch driving wheels, and the tire box is 43 1-2 inches wide and 11 feet in length. There are 139 tubes 2 inches in diameter and 11 feet long, and also a.l tlie late improvements known in the con struction of locomotives. All the mechanics at the Lehign Valley shops, as well as Mr. Clark and his assistants, are to be compli mented on turning out such a masterpiece of workmanship. • FOR SALE.—A now Singer Sewing Machine and a new Davis Machine, for sale on time.
