ITS EMBARRASSMENT AT THE OPERA HOUSE LAS
EVENING.

IT'S EMBARRASSMENT AT THE OPERA HOUSE LAST
EVENING.
Tie Opera House was crowded. last evening,
from pit to dome, by the o. U. A. M, and its
friends to listen to lectures by Rev. T. A. Fern
ley and Ex- Councillor T. NJ. Coleman, of phila-
delphia. Officers and members of the order were
seated upon the stage to the number of about
$50. and the State Councillor and ex-State-Coun-
cor OF Pennsylvania were also present. j. L.
Killgore introduced the speakers.
Rev. Mr. Fernley was the first speaker, and
his general theme was the Dignity of Labor.
| He spoke in eulogistic terms of onr American
Mechanics and claimed for them superiority
/ over the outside world. Almost all important
Investigations had been the work of their brains,
/ he asserted, and instanced many in support OF
/ his assertion. little incident was related, il
| Illustrative of the English conception of the i'm
| portance of their own enterprises and of the
| far-reachng circulation of the products OF
| American industry. Some American gentlemen
| visiting London were importnned by theil
friends in that city to inspect railroad and par
| ticularly the locomotives employed upon it
| They went; they saw the road and the locomo-
| tives, which were undoubtedly fine bnt they
bore the stamp of the baldwin Locomotive
| Works, Philadelphia" Mr.. Fernley's address
| was an eloquent and deserved tribute to onl
American Mechanics, and was well received BY
| the large number present around him.
| Ex-Councillor L. Nj. Coleman, City Editor o
the Philadelphia Ledger, next addressed the au
| dlence. Ills remarks were pertinent to the or
der, and during his speech he referred to tn
| fact that the Order of American Mechanics wa
first organized in gun shop, on I'd street, Phil
adelphia, early in 1545 and 80 favorably was tn,
enterprise received, that, in the same year
/. State Council was instituted. Since then til
Councils have been started in almost every cit
and village wheIe American Mechanics find EN-
ployment. The speaker said that the Order di
notpretend to regulate tho wages OF its members
like Trades Unions, but merely toIind emplo!
ment for those out of work, and assist sick men
bers and care for the widows and orphans of dc
ceased members. The teachings of the orde
made better fathers and SONS, and dignifed Ia
!, | bor.
t At the conclusion of Mr. Coleman's address
he presented to Washington Council, No. 4.
behalf of Geo. W. Childs, of the Philadelphia
y Ledger, handsome family Bible bound in mC
= rocco, with gold trimming. Key. Mr. Fernle
received the present in behalf OF the Council
and the audience dispered.

THE SALE OF LOTS TO BE STOPPED UNTIL MAY
THE DRAWING, FINANCES, &c.
A meeting of the Executive Committee Of the
Rehoboth Camp Meeting Association was to have
been held yesterday, but a quorum was not
present and no business was transacted. An
other meeting is called for Saturday evening, at
~ o'clock at the parsonage of st. Paurs church.
| The Improvement Committee is also requested
| to meet at the same hour and place.
| 1t is very probable that, at the next meeting,
Il a resolution will be adopted prohibiting the sale
OF any more lots until the ground is laid out.
i Sometime between the first and middle of May
the stockholders and purchasers will make se-
lecions of their lots, after which the prices will
| be graduated according to location. Appliea-
i tions for lots, in the meantime, may be made and
will be filed, so that after the selections of the
| stockholders and purchasers have been com
pleted, the applicants may have an opportunity
to make their choice in the order in which theiI
| applications are received.
The sales, thus far, aggregate about $30,OO0
leaving the Association about S2O, 900 with which
to make its improvements. This sum- ii is be
lieved, will be about much as can be judicious
ly expended, this season.
The charter for the railroad from Lewes Il
Rehoboth Bay is in course Of passage througl
the Legislature. Those applying for the charte
have given the Legislature every assurance
that the road will be built, this year and, we IN
derstand, it is now under contract, to be com
pleted by July 1st.
