broken into by some evil disposed person
or persons, on Friday night, I'd inst.
Cupboards, drawers and closets gave evil
dence of having been ransacked, but we

were in search of money. Miss Magee

Drowned.
Jeremiah w. Smith, who a few years
ago resided with his mother at No. 70
Bridge street, in this city, but afterwards
removed to Chambersburg. was drowned
while bathing in the canal, near Willet's
pottery, on Thursday evening of last
week. The following particulars of the
sad affair We take from the Trenton
Times Of Friday:
Jeremiah W. Smith, carpenter, of
BIT Elmer street, Chambersburg, in
company with two other men, went
bathing near Willet's pottery last even
ing. All the men were very much heat.
ed when they arrived at the place, but
Smith did not wait to cool off. He dis.
robed quickly and plunged into the
water while his companions were still
on the bank. In a moment they heard
him calling for help and saw him sink,
but supposing he was only Joking they
made no effort to assist him. Not until
he had twice gone down did they begin
to think that he was really drowning,
and then it was too late. In truth they
unconsciously stood within reach of their
friend and let him drown. This is the
first fatal bathing accident of the season.
The deceased has mother and two Sis
ters, who depended on him for support.
The body was searched for last night
without success, but was found about 10
o'clock this morning near the place OF
the accident. County Physician Labor
viewed the body and Immediately grant
ed permit of burial
The deceased was librarian of the
Bethany Presbyterian Sunday School
and was young man of excellent char.
acter and habits. The remains were
taken to Ringoes, in this county, on
Monday, for interment

II was lonely and sad, and in Winter twas drear,
And the winds would assail us at times,
Still there's no place on earth to my memory so
dear
As my little old house on the Rhine.
o, the old school house stands Just the same as
before,
With its churches and spires so grand,
Where fond stories of love to each other wou Id
tell
As together we walked hand In hand.
It's there where the old folks for pleasure would
stray,
Down back meath the old shady vine
How they watched us at play when from school
would return
To that little old house on the Rhine
They are both dead and gone, and they sleep side
by side
In grave near the end of the vale
Where the birds sweetly sing on bright Summer
eve
And played In the moonlight so pale.
SO good-by, dear old home, farewell for awhile,
You have sheltered me many time
How I'd long TO return to my own fathers land.
And my little old house on the Rhine.

THE OLD HOUSE ON THE RHINE.

remember the days that have now passed and
gone,
When a child how once loved to play
BY the side of the mill that stands close by the
stream,
Where In childhood oft times would stray
But now I've grown old and gu lite feeble, you see
And so has my poor Catharine,
But sigh when think of those once happy days
And my little old house on the Rhine.

They close the present year with bal

same size and class throughout the State,
the Board have increased the pay of four
teachers $50 each and that of two others
$40 each.
OF the six teachers thus increased, three
of them are near relatives of members of
the Board, and SO far as we are able to
ascertain this increase was made unso-
licited by the said teachers.
Your Committee endeavored to impress
upon the Board the necessity for economy,
but were coolly informed that it was the
business of Council to appropriate and
none of their business " as to what be-
came of the money.
In view of the fact that the city is in
debt SO, 900, and the treasury empty, your
Committee only feel justified in recon-
mending an appropriation of 81, 400, be-
lieving that amount to be ample If judi
cionsly expended.

Work at the Stone Quarries.
A large number of hands are kept busy
at the stone quarries operated by Mr..
James a. Callan, Jr., just outside our
city limits, at Goat Hill, and from two
to three boat loads of stone are shipped
from there daily. Mr.. Callan now has
an order for one boat-load of large stone
to be delivered daily for the purpose of
building large dixie on the Pennsyl-
vania shore of the Delaware river, be-
tween Philadelphia and Chester. He
also has another large order from B. NJ.
& j. F. Stanley for small stone, to build
a turnpike from Moorestown to Cam
den, in this State. A large chute has
been built at the quarries to enable the
boats to be loaded more easily and
quickly, the work heretofore having
been done with wheelbarrows.

MEETING OE TIE BLACK RIVER IN


NTR. EDITOR Your modest request
OF me to give your paper an "effusion'
concerning the recent meeting of the
Black River Union in your town, has
moved me to send this epistle to YOU.
The delegates from the churches were
not as numerous rs on some former
occasions, nor were the ministers all
there But we had enough to go to
work with, and after making old father
Nahony chairman, we lighted upon
the laymen and deacons ofthe church
es, and fsyea and quartered taem,
while discussing tie question as to
the duty Of church members to their
pastors. Speeches multiplied, one af
ter another, until a brother produced
sudden quietus by saying some one
had written to ask that we also discuss
the question ofthe daty Of pastors to
their members. Some OF US bad pos
sibly ioryotteu that such duties ex-
iste,i. aud being somewhat abashed,
we let the discussion die.
Or. Bailey, the new Secretary Of
Baptist State Missions, added great
dea! to the meeting. His sermons
soulful and earnest, and delivered ina
style of oratorv, somewhat better than
the average. Above all did he i'm
press himself upon us By his genial
presence and warm-hearted inter
course. The way for his success
among the churches lies wide open,
and we are looking for boom on tie
State Mission question.
On Sunaey, services were held il
the Methodist Church by one of our
brethren, while DR.. Bailey enlighten-
ed the saints in the Baptist Church.
Our reception in Manning was
source Of pleasure to US, and we re-
joice if any good resulted from our
visit. The next union will be held
with the Home Branch Church.

TE!AL JUSTICE.

Mr. EDIToR Our little town ha:
undergone several changes since the
New Year came upon US; we have
lost three good families, but have re.
ceived five good ones ii their places
Therefore We are gamers as to num-
bers, and have lost nothing in tie way
Of good citizens. II there had been
houses we would have had several
more additions. There are number
Of buildings in prospect. Our enter
prising young merchant, Mr. ". I. ?.
Sprott, has found his store too small
FOR his increasing business, and has
contracted to have 4 large store built
so rs to be able to meet the increas-
ing business. One thing we need,
and it is strange some enterprising
man don't embark in tit is nice
little hotel. There is none here, and
many persons are debarred stopping
over on this account. Our old friend
Hudgins has got his saw mill back to
the village in full blast. He is ar
ranging to put in a No. ! grist mill,
and this summer is going to put in a
small rice mill to clean what rice that
may be made in the surrounding
country, which will add to the bust
ness Of the place, and we hope to see
many other enterprises go up in the
Near future. The little OK farmers are
in trouble; the change in the lien law
knocks the prop from under them.
They say now they will have to so to
work-Lard on the poor fellows, that
40 one will feed them any longer.
The farmers are preparing for plant
ng their crops, and should the seas
ons be good, We hope to see q good
yield.
Our town was Incorporated at the
ast session of the Legislature, and I
suppose the incorporation will soon
lave the charter, when they will put

WOMAN.

The situation of woman in all de-
partments in life, is essentially differ
ent from that Of man He has a
thousand privileges granted to him,
indulgence in one OF which by her,
would be attended with utter ruin.
It is said by men that her nature is
different, we deny 1.-THE sexes are
equally endowed with intellect by ma
ture, and the difference of formation
mind and opinion is altogether the
effect Of custom and education; the
current of her thoughts is turned in
to a particular channel and all her
ideas by education, are associated with
more distinct connections, than those
of man. In her girlhood manifold re-
straints are thrown over her, she is
taught to regard the worlds eye with
awe, and to hear its opinions with
submission. Her whole nature is fet-
tered down and she is not permitted
to utter her thoughts with that free
dom, nor to perform her actions with
the independence, granted to man;
the natural consequence Of this, is
resigned submission to the Worlds
edicts, OF l will modify that, and say,
she has been submissive to its cdicts,
and who utters these edicts? The pub
lie press has, until Of late, been under
tie entire jurisdiction OF man, he has
held tic reins in his hands and given
forth his opinions as the fat OF fate,
but new era is dawning among the
ages, Woman is rapidly assuming her
rightful position as mans equal and
illustrating the vigor of her intellect,
she is 10 longer subEervient to man
