Slmiglitln? mid Curing That which Is of tho most importanco to every community, whether largo or small, is to know whether or not thoy aro making progress in developing tho resources which nature hns placed within their rcaoh.

It is a consoling thought to any community to know that it has within itself tho elements of llfo tho means of self-support if isolated from tho remainder of the world, but without contemplating sueh a contingency. Such nn in tho United States, belongs to ccitaln favorably located agricultural districts. It is ono of tho principles that cements tho bond of union in this country that each community is dependent upon tho other to a greater or less degree, nnd that neither can nttnln to tho highest degrcoof progicss and prosperity without tho oilier. That which principally drew tho present largo number of people to tho Lehigh Valley mid the adjacent tnitory is its rich mineral deposits, chiefly anthracite coal which, in tho economy of tho industries of this country, has becomo ono of tho indispeusi-blo necessities. Onco here, and although largely depend ent upon mining and tho collateral industries which it has called into existence, the, first question is a social ono how wo can best economize tho elements upon which wo depend for life, health and strength Only a limited jiortion of tho hilly, rook-bound soil is ad a pod to agriculture, nnd henco a largo jwrtion of tho alimentary necessities must bo brought from such localities ns make a specialty of producing them.

The next question arises, how can they bo oh' tallied, brought nnd dispensed to tho great est advantage to tho consumer? If they nro procured in tho rawest possible manner directly from tho hand of tho producer, nnd hero prepared to bo consumed, tho community will reap double, advantage, first, in the matter of tho price of tho articles; and second, in having tho labor wrought here. In our purposo to glanco at the material industries of tills portion of tho valley wo last week took tho Emery Wheel Co. ns a subject, which is nn example of the manufacturing industries; nnd now this week, as ono of tho social industries, wo havo selected Joseph Obert's slaughtering and meet curing establishment, located in this borough That Mr. Obcrt is a man of sterling enterprise and unflinching business qualities tho history of ids efforts abundantly testify. After having battled with tho difficulties and prejudices which every business pioneer is called upon to combat, In June, 1875, tho fire-fiend Eat him down just where ho commenced.

PhaJiiix-liUe, however, in thrco mouths, in time for his winter business, ho erected on the site of llio old wooden buildings a firo-proof brick block, the front end of which, containing the honey-combed tiers of smokehouses, is fivo stories high. Tho block is CCxOO feet, built on tho most improved method, and containing all tho latest conveniences, which science and personal exporienco haye suggested for slaugher-ing tho live nnim.it, dressing, handling, cutting, salting, packing, smoking, and storing tho cured meat, for keeping warm in winter and cold in summer. For tho latter purpose, tho building is provided with two icehouses, extending from gancl to basement, and so constructed ns to throw their arctic breezes into tho pickling nnd packing-room. Thcro aro other departments, for cutting up tho meat by improved machinery and making it into sausages, balognics and pudding, nnd for rendering lard; the building is furnished with steam power and hot water from an engine nnd boiler in tho lower story. In tho rear oftho building, reminding ono of the stories of tho old Fiench Bastilo from which no voico of complaint ever readied tho outsldo woild, is tho place whero tho living poroiuc, unmindful oftho terrible foto that awaits him within, enters tho building, and over this entrance, in swino lingo, should bo written tho warning injunction, "Tlioso who enlcr here never return." For, ns tho Irishman would say, his pigship, wends his way up an easy incline piano tn llio (op story, and in a short time after finds himself piecemeal in tho hands nf tho letail butcher, coolly salted down in tho basement, or elongated into a hundred feet or moro of sausage.

In the architectural design of the building special roferenco wjs had to lighting and ventillalion, nnd the floors aie so constructed as to throw all tho blood and debris from the different rooms to a common centre, from whence it is iminediatcdly carted to (lie I hits nnd converted into feitilizers. In til is way tho establishment is always kept neat and as cleanly as a thrlfly housewife's buttery, a matter to which Mr. Obert gives the most scrupulous and conscientious attention. Tho water-supply is carried from a monster well under tho engine-room by pipes connecting a steam lorco-punip tn a largo icservoir in tho top of tho building, I'ioiii whenco supply pipes convey it to every apartment. Tho water supply is further augmented by a hillside spring, tho sparkling waters from which nro carried into the building by pipes, nnd also into tho proprietor's residence in front on Bank street.

Tho barn and other adjacent buildings aro also of brick, nnd firo-proof. In tho smokehouse, tho lires aro mado of tho wooil oftho hickory-lree, and tho closest attention given to this smoke-curing process. Mr. Obert purchases his hogs with tho utmost care, and they aro shipped to him by rail. Ho has slaughtered between two and three hundred thousands pounds of pork, and somo beef, this season, aud ho will slaughter a great deal moro yct.noariy all of which is supplied to tho consumer or to tho retail trado in the Lehigh Valley.

Tho present price of a net dressed hog is sixceiiU per pound. Ho has done a larger business this year than last, and his trado shows a steady yearly increase. His meats nro always of tho best quality, aud cured in tho most careful manner. Tho establishment is located directly in tho rear of tho First National Bank building, also tho property of Mr. Obcrt.

The peculiarity about last week's term of tho Court of Quarter Sessions and Oyer and Terminer Is that very little was accomplished very llttlo progress was made, nnd consequently Judgo Prchor lias set tho second Monday In March as tho day on which an extra term of theso Courts will bo commence. Thcro arc twenty or more cases which aro docketed to this oxlrn term, and the court will Issue a venire for a special iwtlt Jury. Tho reason why so few trials wero had, lies In tho fact that Tuesday nnd Wednesday wero wholly consumed In wrnng-ling over tho misnomer Issue In tho libel caso. Tho Penn Forest rnpo pasc, which was brought up nt tho Thursday evening session, consumed that and tho whole of noxt day and evening sessions. This was by far the most entrancing Indictment on tho docket, nnd tho auditorium was crowded with both sexes during its progress.

Tho prosecutrix, Caroline Brown, is, or would bo under more favorable circumstances, a handsomo little brunette, whoso faco Indicates that sho is not ever eighteen. She was married to Brown, her husband, who sat by hor sido during the trial, when sho was only fifteen years old, and, If appenr.uioos are not decep tive, ho is threo times her own age. For counsel, to assist District Attorney Siewcrs, sho had engaged Hon. W. M.

Ropsher. Tho defendant, Reuben Scrfass, is probably forty-five, has a family, and, bosides being mixed up in tho recent railroad robberies, is also bald-headed (not an inconvenient defect for a man who contemplates rebelling against "homo rule," as Reuben Is alleged to have dono in this case.) As counsel, the services of Gen. Charles Albright and Hon. A. Craig had been secured by tho defendant.

It be' lug a caso of Oyer nnd Terminer, defend' nut's mouth was closed, but the only wit' ucss who knew tho whole truth against him was the prosecutrix, and she was a novice in making herself understood in English and when she went on tho stnnd, it bncamo necessary for the court to have nn Interpret er, and for this duty, the court commission ed tho well-known Pennsylvania Dutch author, Pit Swifllebrcniicr; nnd, if a digression is permissible, wo would say that the way that Pit can sling court English into Pino Swamp Dutch, and then snatch said Dutch back into court English is a cautioli, Tho facts in tho caso in brief arc, that last June, Reuben Scrfass engaged Mrs. Brown to assist his wifo in her household duties. A few days after, ho sent his wife on a visit to her father, whero sho remained ono night; and it was during this night that the rapo was alleged to have been committed. When tho wife returned next day, sho brought with her two female friends, who found tho quondtim assistant housekeeper engaged in making bread and other household affairs. But Mrs.

Scrfass, having an inkling that somo "crookedness" had been going on dur ing her absence, immediately switched the little brunette off the Scrfass track in a most summary manner, who at once caused tho husband's arrest on a charge of rape, ns one witness testified sho said, "not because, she had anything against Reuben, but to spito Mrs. Serfoss for chasing her away from tho house." Tho defense put on the stand num eroiis witnesses to prove that tho prosecutrix was immensely peculiar for ways that ore daik and for tricks that aro vain," and after defendant's counsel had stripped her of every vestigo of those charms which luro tho im agination of man into pleasant dreams about fair woman," tho caso was given to the jury, who returned verdict of 'I not guilty But tho evidence wns quito conclusive Hint Mrs. Scrfass' head, when sho concluded to dispenso with tho further services of her assistant, would havo centred tho bead in a spirit level. Tho libel caso, which had been set for Fii- day afternoon, was not readied until Satur day nfternopiijwheii Hon.LJn Bartholomew, of Pottsville, officiated forthodefenso. There wero thrco separato indictments pendin against Josephus Lynn.

Mr. Bartholomew, desired to havo tho cases continued, as ho was ml prepared on such short notice to do justice to his client. Commonwealth argued that, Major Klotz had been falsely accused by tho defendant, of robbing a Catholic church while an officer in the U. S. Army in Mexico; that tho chargo hung over his head in public opinion, mid that tho Court should give him tho earliest opportunity to vindicate himself.

It was decided that tho caso should bo at once proceeded with, when counsel for defense mado a inolion toquush Uio inuictmcnt ontliccioundjorintormalitiesiu issuing, signing, and serving tho venire for llio grand and petit jurors, nnd further set ting forth that as tho panel of petit jurors had been exhausted, tho Courtcould by law, neithor carry over the pauol to Monday, nor try a caso in tho quarter sessions Com with a travcrsejury. Tho entire after noon was taken up by counsel in arguing, and these abstract issues; and at its conclus ion, Judgo Dieher decided not to quash tho warrants for tho causo set forth, but to con tinuo tho caso to tho extra term in March, this decision gave entire satisfaction to the defense. Soaiice -Material out of which interesting news items can bo made is exceedingly scarce and precious just now, Tho local papers sadly feel this paucity of live topics, Notwithstanding tho hanging and the courts Inst week, the Coal Gazette, probably for lack of a better topic, devoted its second editorial to tho discussion of Kidney Dif ficulties." I havo really not had time to read the article, but it no doubt contains somo sound advice to men who are short in tho element of" backbone." Mikor Tones. Copt. Smllbars, son-ln law to Col.

Mercantile Appraiser Calvin fs actively engaged ujion his assessment. District Attorhey Siewers, as attorney for tho commonwealth, very rarely falls to send his man to the wall, when once ho gets blm thoroughly inveigled in the meshes of the law, but ho was forced to "take vater" on the newspaper libel and the Pine Swamp raps cases, although in each be was assisted by other ablo counsel. The one out-gen-cralod him on a running skirmish, aud the other cleaned him out on a square hand-to- iand combat.

Not A Flattering Opluloiu The correspondent of tho Hazletou Daily Sentinel, himself resident of this county and a candidate at tho recent election fornn official iwsition, writing to that paper from Mauch Chunk, under dato of tho 10th discourses in following spicy language upon the morality and intelligence of Carbon county peoplo and jurors in particular: A witness who don't know what county she lives in, is tho feature since last night one who brings an actjoji of rapo against neighboring man of family from pine swamp, Penn Forest township. Her husband is also present during the proceedings, una nas mo moriiiieaiion ti has anything of hearing his wife, a young woman of 19 years, who has been married to him four years, almost admits upon the stand that told her sho might bo a party to criminal intercourse with other men, and now she is before tho court a prosecutrix in a relativo ease. It is not a lack of morality so much that afllicts this county as a want of intelligence, more visible ot every term of court by llio exhibition of jurors in whoso hands during tho past few years now sad to contemplate rested tho futo of somo charged with crinio whoso jieualty was death, and they died, aud Iicicou brings tho following "rounder," whether truo or false wo know not, but our informant is reliable A gentleman from the county of Columbia.

Whether iuis is so or not, it will not bo lorgottcn nut Thomas P.

Thooutlook generally is good for tho season, nnd, indeed, Is much better than was hoped for a month ago.

Tho feeling of par- tics In tho trade is moro harmonious. Thcro Is less disposition among them "to throw bricks" opp nt another. Each seems disposed to advance his own interests as directly and as largely as possible, without nny special o'fiiirt injure Ills neighbor. This is a good denl gained, ns nothing so much furthers legitimate business ns close, and undivided attention, and each in the coal trado giving all his time to his own affairs will bo more sure to prosjier than if he abstracts ponton of it to tho prejudice of competitors. Tho severe weather within the last fortnight has quickened tho demand for conl nnd tended very materially to reduce the slock of coal on hand, for which there is a continued good demand at satisfactory prices.

Tho retail dealers nro pretty well employed in the delivery of old stocks, the snow obstruction to transportation on tho railroads aiding them in this regard. Notwithstanding this temporary intcrfer-eioo tho movement of coal from the iijincs to tlio larger markets for consumatioi) is unusually largo for tho season; indeed, wo aru informed that the Lehigh Navigation Company and its connections nro doing a larger business than at nny corresponding time in tho past. Wo have a liko report from tho Reading Railroad and Its connections, which nro doing a very hirgo winter tonnage. The new business which thiscom-tmiiy now has, of sending Sohuylkill coal by tlio Bound Brook route tn Port Johnson nnd tho Eastern market, opens auspiciously, nnd will odd tnnterally to the usual aggregate Schuylkill toniiago in winter. Borne two or three of tho more northern transportation companies being interfered with by snow and ice makes it better for tlio Schuylkill and Lehigh Navigation Companies.

Nearly nil tho producers of coal report full orders nnd firm prices, tints lessening apprehension of a dull market at very luw prices ot the opening of tho spring trade. At present there is no djsjiositiou on the part of nnoralnrs to overproduce, and thus to break tho market. The estimate is that nt least 21 millions of tons of ami may bo marketed nt remunerative prices this eurrentyeiir, which will give to nil tho leading inteicsts in tho trade nbout ns much as thev will cire to do. There nro reports in tlio Sojiuylkill region of strikes of somo fivo or six collieries, nnd, ns alleged, for delayed payment of buck pay. These statements, wo nro informed, appear much more formidable ill the reading than in practical effecton tho trade, Tho alleged reason for tho strike, wo hear staled, is not tho truo one, but thepropriclorsoj'tliomincs which arc stopped do not caro to oxnoso tho truth qf tho matter lis it really stands.

The wholo amount fif buck pay Involved was but 400,000, and was at the tune of the striko in artual cuorso ot iiaymoiit. About one-half oi mis amount has already oecu tho balanco will bo ns 6ooii ns the "pay car" can leach tlio several (mints where tho pay is due, arriving, probably, at tho striking collieries last, at which work may not boinv mediately resumed, thus tending to prevent an over-production in the early spring. Thus the strikes ore really nothing at nny oftho coal regions, but where attempted, will nrovo healthful revuUions injuring only the strikers. Lcdycr Monday.
