Jacob Huntzlnger to be Tried. READING, Jan. Jacob Huntzingcr, tho cx-Pottsvillo banker, had a hearing before Judge Hagenmah on Saturday last in reference as to whether Pluntzingor was entitled to a final discharge on account of being a bankrupt, or whether ho had fraudulently concealed or made away with aomo of the assets of the bank which should have gone to his creditors.

Counsel for the prosecution claimed that Huntzingor had hidden largo amounts of money and conveyed valuable real estate to hia wife and children and also to his own uso, expecting to receive future benefits therefrom, which he had done to cheat and defraud his creditors. Counsel for Huntzinger claimed that ho entitled to his discharge, as the conveyance of tho properties had been made over two years previous, and that there could bo no binding over as the statute of limitations tiad debarred all proceedings. The ludge, after tho conclusion of tho argument, held the matter under advisement until this morning, when ho ordered that Jacob Huntzinger be taken in charge by the sheriff of Berks county, to bo delivered to tho Schuylkill county jail, to be there for the charge of which he is accused. Profanity a of Ignorance. Tho vulgar slu of profanity is more common than formerly in public streets.

We wish all addicted to the habit could understand how vulgar ic is, and how enerally it is accepted as a proof of an empty head and a -week will. Tho North American Review says well: There are amongst us not a few who feel that a simple assertion or a plain statement of obvious facts will pass for nothing, unless they swear to its truth by all the names of tho Deity, and blister their lips with every variety of htft and sulphurous oaths. If wo observe such persons closely, we shall generally find that the fierceness of their profanity is art inverse ratio to the affluence of their idea's- We venture to affirm that the profaiiest men within the circle of your knowledge all afflicted with a cronic weakness of intellect. The utterance of an oath though it may prevent vacuum in sound, is no indication of sense. It requires no genius to Tho reckless taking of sacred names in vain is as little characteristic of true independence of thought as it is of high moral culture.

In this breathing and beautiful world, filled as it -were With the Deity, and fragrant with iaceflie from its thousand altars of praise, it would be no servility should we catch the spirit of reverent worshippers, and illustrate in ourselves the sentiment that the Cbristain is the highest style of mau. substance lias certain powers claimid fgy everybody testifies that it more than is claimed for it, to gainsay Us worth, is useless.

Baptizing In Winter. At Harrisburg on Sunday the rito of baptism was administered in tho river to several converts about 3 o'clock in tho nfternoon, by Rev. Jones, of tho Church of God, colored, assisted by Kev. P.

Stanton, of Newvillo, Pa. The ceremony took place just below tho water house wharf, where an outlet from tho water house for condensed steam keeps the water warm and prevents ice from forming. Three women and one man were baptized. A great crowd of people fifteen hundred in gathered on the river bank and on top of tho water house to witness the sight. A Inn Suit.

A novel law suit was tried a week ago before Justice Stoddurd aud a jury at Dockevtown, tho fact in which case being as follows James Strublo, an old resident of this township, aged about 05, years, was married last summer at tho residence orMartin V. Sigior, near this place, to one Edna VanSicklo, a young girl of 19 years. Miss VanSioklo is a sister-in-law of Mr. Sigler, and during her courtship lived at his house. Sigior claimed that Strublo agreed to pay her board while there, and that when they were married Struble told him to prepare him a proper wedding and ho would pay the bill for which Sigler charged $15, After the marriage the bride continued to board at Sigler's for some time, for which he charged Struble 03,50 per week.

Strublo also took several moals at Siglcr'a, for which claim was mado in this suit. Struble denied ever agreeing to pay tho board of his intended beforo her marriage, and of having promised to pay tho expenses of the wedding supper, and maintained that it is contrary to custom for the groom to pay such bills. He asserted that he was opposed to making a public wedding, and that tho celebration was made in honor of the bride by her sister and brother-in-law. Tho suit attracted a great deal of interest and resulted, in a verdict for nearly tho full amount claimed by the plaintiff. -r-Suttev Register.

Much of the sin-cess of the enterprise indue to the efforts of the ladies who so kindly took matter in hand. The propiliousncssof fate also lial a good deal to do with tho success achieved. But for tho sloshing that wo have hnd all along since; the fair began, wo might be unihlo to account for tho crowded attendance every evening.

The fair closed on Saturday evening, but there will bo auction of tho articles ro- mnming on hand, next, Saturday evening, A number of our people went to take a look at tho ruins of the barn lately burned at llio Elizabeth farm, Saturday afternoon, Thu scene, it is said presented a very sickening nppoarancu. Fifty two head of tho finest breed Jersey cattle perished in the llaracs. Saturday, while several mon were engaged in cleaning tho stables at Iluchcr's oru washory, they observed something bright sticking out from under a watering trough. On examination it proved to bo silver spoon. A naroful search under the trough served to reveal or disclose a number of other articles that had no doubt been hidden there, by parties to whom the possession of tho name, might havo proved dangerous.

Among the articles t'ound, was a number of silver spoons in addition to tho ojjc that servec as a clew to find tho rest, a silver walcl bearing tho inscription of Brubakci supposed to be tho property of Mr. Brubaker of the neighborhood of Lititz whoso house was robbed several yoarh ago, aud a package of valuable papers. Thursday evening a largo sleighing party from Myerstown paid a visit to Dr H. T. Zerbe.

Goo. IT. Horst and wife, nowly-nmrried, wore of tho party. Saturday evening town was full of sleighs. The winter of 80-'81 will loiif be remembered as affording good oppor tunities for sleighing.

Miss Kato A. Walters of this place ia quite a Jomarka- blo peniman. She is in the habit, when at leisure, of trying to write tho Lord's prayer in the smallest possible spaco. Not long since she accomplished tho wonderful feat of writing tho same within tho spaco covered by an old stylo threo cent silver coin. It is executed in a plain legible hand, and we defy anyone to boat it.

Why should Aquilla ask such a question Although quite a flegling in rsportorial experience, ho hjys proven himself a level-headed sort of fellow, Hia points are usually well taken, and his ideas are fresh and his opinions well digested. Why then ho should ask tho above question seems a mystery too profound for our solution. Jle cannot wish to bo understood that ho is uncertain as to the long accepted belief of tho moon's utility in ways without number, to tho race of men. That silent, silvery mopi), "rolling on while tho nightingale's is in tune," claims adcgreo of usefulness that ordinary minds must fail to comprehend.

What would our'lads Hijcl lassies do without tho moon? Why they would have nothing to gaze at, nothing to dream about and meditate upon when they take their summer evening rambles in sequestered alleys and grassy laues! Our old folks would not know half the timo wb.cn to plant their seeds but for tho moon; and in some sections the people would be absolutely at a Joss when to marry. The moon plays most important pait in this world's affairs. Aquilla, why such a question?" SCUJ.PTOB, oran church. The pastor was ngioeably surprised and his spirits rase to a high pitfh.
