The ELECTION To-DAY.-The election in this
cty to-day, for President and Vice. President, and
State and County officers, is now in progress, and
up to present writing, has been conducted quietly
but with vigor and energy. Both sides are actively
q. work, and the full vote Of the city will doubt
less he pC!'ed. In the Democratic wards, Supor-
visors have been appointed, and are at their sta
lions Considerable dissatisfaction 10 expressed
at these appointments, and all honest thinking
men deem them entirely unnecessary. But much
more dissatisiaction is caused by the appointment
OF Deputy U. 8. Marshals. which is announced,
on oil sides, as not only unnecessary, but uncalled
'or In order to secure peaceable citizens from
any unlswiul assumption Of authority by these
deputies, Sheriff Armstrong promptly appointed
one hundred Deputy Sherifs. There really did
not exist particle Of necessity for the appoint
ment OF any extra officials to-day, but in view CT
Marshal Dunn's appointments, the action of
Sherln Armstrong is considered eminently wise
and proper.
In the Tenth Ward, compromise was effected
with the Chief Deputy Marshal. this morning, by
which be agreed to hold his Deputies in abeyance
throughout the day, unless there was actual need
OF their services The same conditions were nc.
ceded to by the Deputy Sherifs. and hence no
trouble need be apprehsnded in their Ward
The election seems to be attended with no un.
usual excitement. but there 10 q deep earnestness
expressed in the result and both parties are doing
their "level best" to win.

PAY ROLL OF THE READING RAILROAD
We copied an article In Saturdays Times from
the Harrisburg Patriot making the following
important statement:
I'D. E. Stout, Esq, Of Reading, the indefa.
tigable paymaster Of the Philadelphia and
Reading railroad company, pays between 600
three weeks of the time. His yearly payments
amount to over 81, ,O00, ,OO0."
This Is for wages Of employees alone. The
largest portion Of the above three millions Is
paid out in Reading, to the thousands Of citi-
zens who are connected with the road, and
who by their residence here for long series
of years, have aided so materially in building
up and improving our town, and imparting
general prosperity to all kinds Of business.
In view Of the fact that the Reading Compan y
is now seriously considering the expediency bf
the removal of its workshops from this city, it
becomes our people to consider well the great
loss they would be likely to incur by such &C.
ton. and to take such measures to avert SO
great calamity as would seem to be proper.

A Mule Battery.

Out in certain western fort, some
time ago, the majo conceived the idea
that artillery might be used effectively in
fighting with the Indians by dispensing
with guncarriages aud fastening the can
non upon backs of mules. SO he explain
ed his views to the commandant, and it
was determined to try the experiment.
a howitzer was selected aud strapped
upon an ambulance mule, with the muz-
zle pointing toward the tail. When they
had secured the gun, and loaded it with
ball cartridge, they led that clam and
steadfast mule out on the bluff and set up
a target in the middle of the river to
practice at. The rear of the mule was
turned toward the target, and he was
backed gently up to the edge of the bluff.
The officers stood around in a semcirce,
while the major went up and inserted
time fuse in the touch, hole of the how
itzer. When the fuse was ready, the
major lit it and retired. Iu moment or
two the hitherto unruffled mule heard the
izzing back there on his neck, and IL
made him uneasy. He reached his head
| around to ascertain what was going on,
and, as he did so, his body turned and
the howitzer began to sweep around the
horizon. The mule at last became excit-
ed, and his curiosity grew more and more
intense, and in a second or two he was
standing with his four legs in a bunch,
making six revolutions minute, and the
howitser, understand, threatening sudden
death to every man within half mile
| The commandant was observed to climb
suddenly up tree the Heutenants were
seen sliding over the bluff into the river,
as if they didn't care at all about the high
price Of uniforms the adjutaut made
good time toward the fort; the sersean t
began to throw up breastworks with his
bayonet, and the major rolled over the
ground and groaned. In two or three
minutes there was puff of smoke, dull
| heavy thud, and the mule-oh where
was he? A solitary jackass might have
been seen turning successive somersaults
over the bluff, only to rest at anchor, final

river, while the ball went OF towardthe fort,

About Lager Bier.

The German words lager bier signify
stock beer-t c. beer that has been stored
away. The story as told in Germany is
an old one, and runs thus !: "Many years
ago shoemaker, near Bamburg, sent his
apprentice to get bottle of hamburg
beer, which was sold at that place but
the boy not knowing this, went to the city
itself On returning he met an acquain-
tance of his, who told him that when he
would come home his boss whould whip
him for staying SO long. The poor boy,
who was frightened at this, thought it
better not to go home at all, but took his
bottle, buried it under tree, and ran
away. He went among the soldiers, where
he distinguished himself, so that, in short,
he became an officer. When one day his
regiment was quartered in this small
town, the officer thought proper to pay a
visit to his old boss, but not before he had
got the bottle of beer, which he had buri-
ed some years before under the tire e.
When he entered, he said Well, sir
here bring you your bottle Of hamburg
beer that you sent me for The shoe
maker, not knowing what this meant, was
told by the officer all about it. The bot
tie was then opened, and the beer was
this fact was known, some of the brewers
built deep vaults, where they put their
beer, and called it, after it had laid there
some time, nger, which meaut' nothing
more than lying. The officer afterwards
married the daughter of the shoemaker
and drank good deal of lager bier receiv
ing in that occupation the assistance o
his friends.
