Mr. Henry Poterson, (editor of the Saturday veninf J'ott) delivers nts Une lecture entitled '-lh Quaker Pa hers," at Concert iiali on Monday evoi.insr next. This lecture was read befoie the Pennsylvania Historical society, and is said to be a remarkably fine literary eOort. The subject is one that will intorest all PhlladoU rhians, as the six-aker reforn especially to acta of the early settlers ot l'enusylvanla, aud the liboral pnn. c pies which actuuted them in their dealings with the abotluines. . Itlaniages on the Decline. I am called uoon to record one of the strangest phenomena of the times -a growing tiupopu 1 tiitv In that most popular institution, the mar riage .nstitution. It is an important tact, one lull of tho deepest significance, as well to the Tolit:cal philosopher as the lightest gossip, that the number of marriages is relatively growing less every year. Especially is this go tn cities, and most so in the metropolis. The records et the public journals, the statements of solemniz ing ministers, aud the current observations ot the heads oi families, all coneur that there is a growing disinclination to marry, which, thou eh fust apparent now, may soon become a serious matter. There have been no marriages of con sequence in what may bo termed "high lito" this season, nor anything like the usual number amonir the middle classes. Now and then we see wedding-cartis, or a bride at the opera or evening patties, but the number is astonishingly small. People aro of cource marrying all the time, but who are theyT People whom nobody knows. The everiasTine poor are tying mem' eelves up ior lite as usual. When a man reaches that deplorable coudl Hon that he has not a change of shirts to his vrOr. h Ih in a lit condition for the sacrifice, ' That has always been a strong incentive to the tWt when fortune frowns her hardest, nd when things have gone to their o.r mnnu man defies fate, and takes a wile.

It is understood that the complaint of tits' rtpamsn Minister is loumiea on several I acts'. He speaks ol the explosion of several barrels t a mateiial of which the quality was unknown,, but which barrels were sent from Now York to X pinwall. It appears that there wa a leakage,, and one barrel took tire and exploded, which com. municntca the tiic to tho others, and thnt all cf them blew up with a (earlul noise. Th excite ment wus great, and there was considerable damage. The minister regards the facta as sus picious, and he mentions reports that have come from Callao, to tho ell'oct that a torpedo and twentv-two cases that may contain torpedo material have escaped from New York, and are likely to fall, or have already fallen, Into the hands of tho enemies of Spain, either in Peru or Chili. Nothing is known here, so far as can bo ascer tained, oi the escnpe of tny torpedoes, er other contraband articles, though two torpedo-boats that were to be shipped at this port lor some southern destination did not start, owing to tho tact thnt the author ties wore watch'ng them. It would not be ditlictilt, however, fur shipments of '-torpedo material" to be made in some of the thousands of barrels which aro constantly going on bourd vessels sailing southward. The barrels, that exploded at tho Isthmus were sent from this port by directioa ot one of the Spanish aeents, a well-known merchant. They wero understood to contaiu oil. JV. Y.

The following are the Commissioners: B?H. N. Mncallister, Ksq , of Centre county. JohnH. Brings, Esq., ol Dauphin county. Thomas J. Joidsn, Esq., ot Dauphin county. Perhaps if the Commonwealth had been com pletely searched, three more competent and conscientious gentlemen, belter qualified to dis charge the duties devolved upon them, could not have been found. All are lawyers of the highest reputation, business men thorooclily acquainted with tho value of real estate as well as mlly qualified to make the assessments neces sary to carry out in its fullnst, ntost practical sense, the munificent relief voted by the Legisla ture oi tne cumnion wealth, to our sutienug leiiowK'ltizens ot Chambersburi;.
