&C. E. Butler, son of R. @. Batter, and
/ Theodore Kampman, two of the most ex-
perienced clerks in the Passenger Depart.
ment of the L. V. r. r, Co., rendered their

soon, thus complying with Greely's advice,
"Young man, go west"
John Taylor is putting down a first
class pavement in front of his residence on
West Broadway, which when completed
will be undoubtedly permanent. We ad-
wise his immediate neighbors to do like
wise.
Nicholas Remmel, has lately put new
sleepers under bis dwelling house on West
Broadway; the old ones were much decay
ed, and a change evidently necessary.
e. r. Siewers has removed his office
into neatly fitted rooms Immediately oppo-
site his former Office, and two doors above
the First National Bank, Broadway.
The fruit trees on the lots in the rear
Of Brick Row, West Broadway, are now in
full bloom, and arc interesting to the lovers
of the beautiful, for they just now present
an Eden-like appearance, and while look
ing upon the trees clothed in their perfec-
tion, and listening to the sweet notes Of the
feathered songsters, we almost imagine that
we are standing ON enchanted ground.
e. c. Remmel has accepted a position
as clerk in the Passenger Department OF
the L. V. r. r. Co., and entered upon his
duties on Monday morning.
Mrs Sallie Fister, widow of James Fis-
ter, deceased, is having the millinery shop,
! lately occupied by Mrs. VIM. P. Simpson,
remodeled, and will soon commence the
millinery business.
The Switchback cars will commence
running on Monday, the 10th inst, by the
Munford Bros, as heretofore.
-YefaSe glad to learn that James W
.Heterling, who has been suffering with
FeTysipelas in the left eye for the past few
days, is much better, and hope he may soon
be entirely well.
AT the reunion of Knapp's Battery last
Julys Josiah Connolly was severely injured
10y The mature discharge of cannon while
aiding in firing q salute, as the procession
was marching through town, resulting in
tie loss of his eyesight and injuring his
right arm, so that 1t became necessary to
have it amputated, which was done by doc
tors DeYoung, Erwin and Leonard, assisted
by Charles OFT, one of our young medical
students, on Wednesday last. He is doing
as well as can be expected. The arm wa:
amputated near the shoulder. Poor, unfor-
tunate fellow, we deeply feel for him in his
deplorable condition.
The extremely hot weather which ha:
SO suddenly made its appearance, has rath-
er weakening effect upon those who are
constltutonally tired, and no doubt if con
tinued few days longer, will cause STAN

Barn and Ice House. ssurned.

y Between four and fve o'clock Tuesday
afternoon our people were startled by the
cry of fire. Proceeding to the scene We found
it to be the barn of John Hauk, the baker,
on Bank street. The flames rushed through
the building with great fury, soon complete
ly enveloping the barn and the adjoining
ice house of Frank Lebenguth. Mr.. Jos.
Obert with his fire engine and some of the
Lehfgh boys with the truck were promptly
on hand, and, with the help of our citizens,
worked with a will on the surrounding
property, confning the flames to the build
ings above mentioned, which were COM
pletely destroyed. Mr.. Hauk lost in addi,
tion to his buildings his stock of ice, and the
contents of the barn, including hay, straw,
coal and several sets OF harness. DR.. Pharo
sayed Mr.. Hauk's pigs from the stable by
prompt action. There was no Insurance on
the property destroyed. The fire created
considerable excitement among the people
owning property and living in the vicinity,
and is another "calP to them TO introduce
a good water supply, and procure suitable
apparatus for the extnguishing qt fires. The
Little Giant, broken last winter, is still unfit
for service, although the boys are making
an effort 10 get it fixed.

LESSON THoueHT.-sos REMEMBER.
THE MRANs AND MEDIUMS USED TO CONVEY
ISsTRUoTIoN TO INFANT CLAssEs.-II.
By adaptation OF voice and manner to
what is said. "Manner is to matter as
powder to ball." and infant scholars are al
most as much impressed with the manner
in which a thing is said, as with the matter
of what is said. 1t is said Of George Whit
field that by saying the single word ones
opotania," he could move a congregation
to tears, and Ristora, by the magic power Of
her voice, her expressive face, and her ma
tural gestures, could move a congregation to
laughter or to tears at will, and all this,
when speaking in an unknown tongue.
By properly adapted voice and manner,
the most lifeless and uninteresting subjects
brought before the class can be made inter
esting and instructive. To properly adapt
your voice and manner to what is said, you
must have perfect freedom Of voice, action
and manner you must be a real live,
standing, walking, energetic, magnetic
teacher. Avoid talking very loud; talk
just loud enough to be distinctly heard by
the whole class; if you talk too loud it will
have the tendency oi making the class
noisy. To hear pleasing echo speak
pleasantly, never speak in scolding, fret
full msnner. The little girl said, 81 don't
understand that gentleman; he don't talk
like gentlemen in rooms" Accompany the
teaching with gestures adapted 10 assist in
presenting the truth more vividlyj when
ouyspeak of the sun point toward the sun;
when you speak of heaven, point upward;
when you speak of little boy show how
little; and when you allude to tree, speak
as if you had tree before them. Acts are
necessary in order 10 vivid description and
allegory. One Of the teachers best accom-
plishments is knowing how TO talk with
children, not simplify to them he must
learn 10 talk like children-hexible and
various, with agility and nimbleness.
Teach ever as merry as you can, for no one
delights in a sorrowful man. One of the
best things an Infant class teacher car do in
order to be interesting and successful is IL
Learn To chirp Right.

On Monday last, when the post-ofiee was
removed in our place, the American flag
was hoisted, suppose in order to cover up
the low down triekery that was resorted to
in obtaining the appointment of the unac-
eeptable post master that has been forced
upon us. That he is unacceptable is proven
from the fact, that the principal business
men OF our place, in order To protect their
rights and the secrets pertaining to their own
business, have joined together, hired mail
carrier, and are now doing their business at
the Lehighton Office. The citizens of our
place inrgeneral, had no more privilege al

New York Letter.

Lieut.. Schwatka, the young man who went to the North Pole or whereabouts, awhile ago, is often seen in Broadway these sharp, snappy days. He is some times accompanied by Col. Glider, the journalist who went with him upon that frigid journey. As long as the weather was at all mild these two Northerners re- mained in their rooms at an uptown ho- tel, and could not be enticed into the open air. But since John Frost, Eso., has asserted his supremacy in decided way they consent to come forth. Neith- CT of them wears an overcoat, no matter how cold the weather. They sumter along with jackets mbuttoned, much as if the air were balmy and laden with the odors of the tropics. They laugh at our ideas on the weather question, and would rather be stared at than put on season. able clothing If they could only make people believe they perspired little in the open air nowadays l believe they would really be willing to die.
