Grier, Esq., late Foreman I of the Pittsburgh Shops, to the responsible po- I gUlon of “ Master of Machinery;,” over the en- I line of the Pennsylvania Railroad. This ap jpoiatmoat necessarily involved his removal'to I this place, and dissolved, in a partial manner, [ jj[ 3 connection with the Engineers and Firemen lof the Western Division, many of whom bad I drawn the first throttle and thrown the first Istlck of wood under bis administration, and who I could not suffer the relations which had so long land satisfactorily existed between them, to be ■dissolved without testifying, in a suitable man- Iner, the bigb estimation in which he Waa held ■by them, as an officer and a gentleman. Accor* Idingly the presentation of a gold watch and I chain was decided upon, in of which [ a committee, consisting of William Wills, rep- I resenting the Passenger Engineers—James I Smith, representing the Freight Engineers and John W. Ridley, representing the Flrmneb, ar- I rived in this place bj the Express Train, on Monday morning, and having called Mr. Grier, into bis office, Mr. Will*preempted tbejtoken, [accompanied by a few appropriate remarks. — [lie assured Mr.rO. tijab wherever hlalot might [be cast in the future, tbo weU-wisbes of the en*. [tire Division would accompany .him, and that [so long as bis connection with lire Pennsylva [nia Centi^-aontinacd—which,thoyhopedwould [be to the end of his Railroad career—he could [calculate upon , their sustaining him as one man; ■confident that be—a working .pisnand pne wbo [bad justly risen from their'.ranks sqlely;bjrbis: ■own untiring: exertions and acknowledged me lehanical abilities—w6uld properly appreciate a [faithful dischatae of duty on theft part and at [the same time .ask nothing at tjieir hands .which [the best intemtsof the company and the men : [did not alike demand. .; Mr. Grier not being aware of the intended demonstration wastal;ea altogether by surprise. He said they a)l kpew that he,,eten if prepared, could not express himself in a manner to do justice tO;his feelings,-and he hoped, !therefore, that they would exciuo him : from. attempting an extemporaneous address. Mr. Grier was evl i dentiy much affected by the affair, and remark ed that, much #s .he prized this token just re jeeived the sentiments which { accompanied it were of much -more value-to bim. Being per fectly, satisfied- that no officer can satisfactorily discharge his duties unless he eqjoys the confi dence and. respect of the men under his charge os Well aathat-of tbe officers placed over him, he had always endeavored to secure this, and was pleased;.to know that he bad tosome extent, succeeded ; .tiiat,his coxirse in the future, in the [performance of the duties of his new'office, would-be directed.to the same end, and be hoped with a like result Mr. ,G. again thanked the [g?ntienym for the elegant present he had rc | ceived at their bands, advising them to continue | to perforin their du ties in a satisfactory manner •o long as they remained in the service of the | Company, and assuring- them that by endeav | oring to promote its interests,. they would cer | tainly promote their own. | Ihe committee then withdrew, evidently much ■pleased with the interview and. interchange of ■friendly feelings. 1 - I It always gives us pleasure to .record eridea- Ices of good-will existing between employers and ■employees, but in this cam wo have a peculiar ■gratification, Mr. Grier is emphatically a work ling, as well as a self-taught, man, and is always ■ready to put bis shoulder to the wheel when no- Iccssity requires. From a poor apprentice-boy, ■he has risen, by his own exertions; to the fore ■most rank in his profession. Having commen- Kced at the foot of the ladder, and gradually as-- pended to his present position, be can. foily ap preciate the titoationof thqse under.his charge, land it is therefore not surprising that he has I succeeded in securing their good-will. | We congratulate [the company upon haring [secured the services of one so well-qualified to; [ promote the interests of the Road, and also the | men under him, that one of their number, who [knows their trials aad can appreciate a faithful [discharge of duty, has been placed over (hem. 19* Morality appears to be at alow ebb in Altoona. Tbe' load department of the' Tribune |of last weekis almost entirely filled with rob- j .beries; from petty ,thefts to .{hiring highway; | attempts. The recent discharge of 140 men by the P. R. R. • Co, in that place.-who were get [ ting up a ** strike,” may have, bad something to Uo in produmng this sod state of affairs.— \ShirleytbuTgff(tald. We hare ever been tanghtthat the slanderer was an individual more morally debased, more [contemptiblymean, and a greater villain jbwi the most daring thief or burglar, Shakapearo [beautifully portrayed tbe difference In the fol lowing lines: “ H« who steals my parse steals traib Rat be that filchce from mo my good name, x - RoW me of that which not enriches him, And nukes me poor indeed.” We commend them to the calm consideration iof'the junior of the Herald, who claims the paternity of the above item, than whom a more abusive slanderer, if we may judge from his de partment of the paper, can not ho found in the Interior of the State. We beg him,,ere he again fcomments on the low ebb of morality in neigh boring towns, to rid his own of a viler specimen bf immorality than ever disgraced this place, py taking a hasty exit therefrom. Ml I ■ I | Revolution is Paicss.—Messrs. McLain & Lehr have just received from the city a large [assortment of fresh groceries which they are [selling at unprecedentedly low prices. They jsell the best brown sugar at 9 cents per pound and white at 10 cents; Levering Syrup molasses ,at 65 cents per gallon, and all other articles in proportion. Give them a call-and price their goods and you will find our words correct. Ihe Circus.-—Mabie & Crosby’s Circus, about which one-balf the juveniles in town have been dreaming for the last week, will be In town on Saturday n«xt.

This is owing, however, to our limited acquain tance in the county anti the foot that we ham taken little ornopart in political or public af fairs. K number of those named are well known to moat af the people of the county, personally, and to us by reputation; and we feel no hesita tion in saying that so far os personal feelings, are concerned, they ore as popular men aseoold: Jbave been selected. It was ‘boped and expected .that a different coarse would bare bhen panned by the Conven tion, to harmonise, If possible, the entire oppo aition to the administration- ffe notice in the proceedings of the convention, that a resolution waa offered to the.effect that it was inexpedient at this time to select candidates for the county offices, and proposing an adjournment of the convention untijthe 26tb of August next. Why this resolotion was not adopted the proceedings do not state, neyerthelessire presume there wiis; sufficient reason, y . Aawe anticipated. there are now two tickets in the ficld,andanotber yet to be nominated. What tlte result wtU-bCfShoakl they all continue on the track, is easily.surmised. Theeffcrts of the admipistration party, will be directed to one object, that of 'preventing a union between the; Amcricanand Republican parties, and in the accomplishment of this lies their only hope of success in this county, if we may judge from the rote of toraer years, when the opposition was united. Ison Cixx Couksbcial College, PirrsAima, Pa.-—Our attention has been called to the sue-: cess, growth and great popularity of (his Insti tution, bynotieing the many improvements on the Building this spring, making it an orna ment tofur City. The exterior is finely paint ed and decorated with now signs and transpa rencies. The interior of four large Balls, 20 by 40, 22 by -70, 20 by 80, will be found beautiful-; ly papered and carpeted,' and furnished with every convenience suggestive of a njodel coun ting boose. ■ These Ralls are well filled by above 200 Students. Upwards of 60 young men have; entered this school within the last six weeks.—i Now considering that this is the dull season of the year for Commercial Schoolsr~'tbis plainly shows that the present popularity and success of the Iron City College are entirely without precedent. The Business men of this City refer with pride to'this Institution, and we recom mend it to yonng men, parents and guardians, as the best.school our country affords fox acqui ring a thorough commercial education for ac tive business life. For Circular and specimen o/ Penmanship address f. Jenkins, Pittsburg Pal —Evening Chronicle, A friend has requested us to call the attention of those Whose business it is to abate such nuisances, to the fact that « number of persons are in the habit' of collecting in the vestibules and about the doors of some of the churches, during the hours of evening service] and annoying those who occupy back or gallery Seats, with their cont'mdal talking and running in and otit of (ho chnreh. Especially was this the case at the .Lutheran Church on Sabbath evening last, when the annoyance was so great that those on the gallery could with much diffij unity distinguish what was said by tbe minis ter. We are ashamed to be compelled tp add that some bf those who thus misbehaved ore ypung men. and who no doubt wish to be con sidered gentlemen, but they lack the first prinr oiples'ili&t constitutes a man a geutleiran. If ijhey do qotwish to go into the church, or havb no desire to listen to the preaching of the gosf pel, common sense we think'should teach them to stay away from the house entirely, and not disturb tlibse who do wish to hear and leorni j Spanish Quabtees.— Two of tbe remaining evils of tbe late suspension are the circulation ofgpanisb quarters and unbankable money.-| As before the suspension, business men ought quarters for more than 20: centos or if,token tft par they should pot be paid out again, but collected in sums and carried to the mint to be .exchanged for American silver. Ip this way they bring from 22 to 25 cts. each.— And the notes of our interior Banks ought toj be collected and sent borne' by an agent and the gold demanded Jqr them. If .this plan were f°r a.time .these Banks would make ait arrangbteent to keep \thoir notes at par ip Philadelphia. It may not beknown to the pub lic generally ,that these Banks pity specie at their counters, but do not settle their balances in .coin ot Philadelphia, consequently thmr p*- peris generally 1 to 2 per centdiscount Can't something be done to remedy this evil 7 r ' | Shall w* hav*a Fourth or Jult in At toora!—This question is now being agitated by some of -car citixens, who propose to cele brate the day in the good old-fashioned way, by gathering together all the men, women and chil dren in the place, and repairing to an Adjoin ing grove and having a general jollification.— We call attention to the subject at this time, for the purpose of requesting the different so cieties in this place not to be' too hasty in get ting up celebrations of their own, and* also to give notice that a meeting will shortly be called for the purpose of completing arrangements for a general celebration, in which it is hoped that all associations and denominations will take port We shall speak more at length of the matter next week. Ball and Suffer.—We have recently printed navigations for a Ball and Supper to be given at the Washington Hotel, in this place, on the evening of the 16th of Juno. From the char acter of the Managers announced, we anticipate it will be a grand affair, and that all those who .shtdl parfecipato in the festivities the coca-; won wiijiirwraiTe the worih_of thsr money.

Smith.— The remains of Gen. P. F. Smith passed through this place, on Thors day last, on the Fast Line, accompanied by an es cort of twelve; members of the Duquesne Greys, of Pittsburg. The car appropriated by the Company jfor the purpose was suitably arranged, being heavily craped on the outside and deco rated wjth couple of American Flags oh the inside. Quite a crowd had collected at the depots hoping that au opportunity would be given to obtain a sight qf the honored dead, but the ear being kept looked, they wexq' disap pointed. : “AiraA” is Teoubus.— We notice in the last pf the DUtirsvUle Record, that our correspondent, “ Alpha” has stirred up a hor net’s nest about his ears, by the reference he made to the “ widows, old maids mad marriage able ladies” of Blairsville, in hie first letter to the Tribune, from that place. Onp of the “ mar riageable ladies” tikes him in hjaiid and draws him over the coals in & pretty rough manner, and promises him a little more of the same sort should he again allude to them. Whether “Alpha” -will “dry up” at her command or not, remains to be seen. Tin elt Advice. —To those who are subject to Coughs and Colds, and those various Pulmon ary Diseases incident to oar climate at this sea son of the year, we would advise the trial of a bottle of Dr. Kcyscr’s Pectoral Syrup, by this time well known to our community, and a med icine that stands higher for its curative proper ties than any other medicine with which we are acquainted. ; It is a matter of wonder to us that any person will allow a Cough or Gold to fas ten on the lungs when so pleasant a remedy is at hand.. Ypu con bay it at G. W. Kessler’s. Pehhakbhip.—Thorough and practical in every other department, Duff’s Merchont’s’Col- Icge, of Pittsburgh, furnishes unequaled advan tages to the student for the acquisition of a splendid style of Penmanship.

LETTER NO. 8. A Crevatte —The Advantages of otrr Taang 3fen—The char . - aettr qf the dace—The effect of ISberaUtg in rewarding labor—The nape of promotion a tUviulut. ■ My Young Friends:—You have doubtless heard or jfead of the great Bdl Crevaeee apjpo rite the of New Orleans, through urmoh the Raters of tho Mississippi ore pouring tbem selves with an arrow's speed, and in 4<uthtity equal: to ihe Susquehanna. This ww<wf« i$ a break in-the levee, or embankimeiri thrown up to protect t|e low-lands from feeing overfqwu by the Mississippi. But the swollen condition of this great Father of Rivers, by the late heavy and rimost incessant nuns, has created such an imniense pressure, that in several pla ces the fto« has given way, and thus is formed a erevaete, through which rite water pours and foams like mad, dessolating and overflowing thousands upon thousands of acres of the best sugar growing lands. Now, young friends, there Was a erevque ia my time, last week, which ran away with no little of it. This is my apol ogy for not greeting you with the accustomed, letter. lu my lost two letters, I have spoken at some length of a few of the dangers Which surround you in this place. But you enjoy some advan tages too, and of them 1 wish now to speak. It the first place, the character of the town is a matter of very great advantage to you, by way of inspiring you with energy and forming in you active, industrious, and correct business habits. In life, energy, industry and business opportunities it is no ordinary place- It is none of yoor “ ojae-horse" towns. No.sir. it baa tfco y«sl city* bun about it. -sjbtop is many a jpbme dubbed **eUy,” ia the Wcst,apdeven in this country, (Tyrone, for inBtance,)that will not compare with it, either i» number of inhab itants, wta|tb, industry orburineas. - Nuwwho dtocH not know that to live, in, or be connected in business with, such aplace, has an inspiring effect upon * mail* which is calculated to call out his energies: and make blni, in his habits, partake of the character of the town and peo pie around him. Bring a man from one of your dried np, finished towns, like foine we could name, not a hundred miles off, and behold what a change. Uesocms to be anew man, with fresh life, new energy and changed habits. The fret is, a man oan hardlj help bat be like those around him. If Jbe Ores in a town of iasyloaf era, he is Mosty to be a lot for too; b«t If be Hm In 'Altoona, where every bod/ seems to have thdr hands foil of business of their own, and. attend to that without ihedling with others, he can hardly helpbeing like Altoouians. Here, where everything is done on an active, liberal scale, men learn to be active and liberal. The difference between living in some other place and here, is Just about the difference between the speed of one of the bid six* hone> Conestoga teams and that of the Fast Line on the P. B . 8., with the “ Gaselle” as your horse and the good humored, good-hearted Harry Gray ns driver. Why, so inspiring is it to be in a plaei like this, that even Joe Weitzel, stern and exact as he. is, can hardly keep the “-Blazing-Star” Within the limits of schedule rime, Bren the locomotives seem to .catch the spirit, and some time break over all restraint, for the other evening, with all Joeoonlddo to hold her bock, the “Blazing Star” held up before the Logan House the fifti eth part of a minute ahead of time—Schedule No. B—that is, if Bob. didn’t make that much of a mistake in making It out, or if my watch was correct (for the correctness of which 1 would not like to vouch.) Now then, young gentlemen, how is it possible that you should live in the midst of influences like these, without beingl inspired by them. It is not possible. Uncon-i sciously to yourselves your habits will, must be moulded by such surroundings. It is to you u! decided advantage, and if you use the advan tage aright, it will be of service to the world, as well as yourselves. N To illustrate this point a little further, let me cite an instance. Here is the General Superin tendent of tfaeTennsylvonia Railroad, acknowl edged on all hands to be one of the shrewdest and most active business men in the State—kind, aflable, gentlemanly, and yet unflinchingly firm. Now suppose the force pf circumstances had kept Irim all his life in London—rthe place of his birth and boyhood—a little village at the east ern slope of the Cove Mountain, in Franklin county. Fa., is there any probability that in that case his business energies and qualities would ever have been so fully called out and thus perfected! To my mind there is not the siighest probability, of it. Circumstances make men; men do hot :create circumstances. ’Tis said, ' “Thero u a tide in the affairs of men. Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune.” The circumstances which surround you are well calculated to make you active, energetic, indus trious citizens, nnd will, if you allow them to produce their legitimate effect Another advantage enjoyed by yon here, is the liberality with which your labor and efforts are reworded. -I scarcely know of a place where labor commands a higher price. The advan tages to you are not so much what you are able actually to save, as the liberal and enlarged, views of matters and things which it is likely to beget in you. It may be that after oil you do not actually save more than some men would do iu other places at less wages; for liberality in the reward of labor is apt to create a highet price for the necessaries of life. But here is the thing—you put a man down to very low wages, and it makes him narrow-minded and contracted in his thoughts, his feelings and his actions. While on the other hand let a man feel that he is liberally and punctually reward ed for his work, and he is most likely to be free hearted and liberal in all Ms ways. Look for an illustration of this iu what Altoona has done in- the last ftw years for public purposes.— Where in the State—perhsps in the Union—is a place, which for its population and wealth, has in tho samo rime expended os much for public improvements ? lam yeiy sure I knew of no place. And how can we account for it but in the liberality of the people, brought about by the liberal scale on wMch everything is hero done ? I Jpowof no other way. Another advantageJo you, young wen, is the stimulus to which here exists. That stimulus arises from die prospect of promotion. It is the standing rule of the P. R. B. Co., to promote their own men s as fast as vacancies occur. Some of herihighest functionaries at present, onbe occupied subordinate stations.— True merit, the result of their own efforts, has elevated them to positions. The rule according to wMp| they promote, is merit— not time in the service. Here then is a stimu lus for yom Set your bim high, nor relax an effort until you havereached the mark.' I have some more to say to you abbot your advantages, but must "for the present bid you adieu. A Cainl from Samuel Swan A Co. TO THE PUBLIC,—The extraordinary course j panned by the rival managers of different Lot teries ' to. 'injure nb because our liberal schemes and prompt manner of doing business has ma terially affected them, compels us to call special attention to the facts, which all who deal with us know already; that is, that our Lotteries are legal; the managers and trustees honest and honorable men; that we have sold more prases' in the last twelve months than all other Lotte ries in the Union, and that they have been promptly cashed in all cases on presentation.

Professor- Wood, at the age of thirty-seven j ears, was as gray as a man of eighty, ami his hair was dry, thin and dead. Now he has not a single grey lock upon his crown, nor is his hair thin or dry, but soft, pliable and moist ns that of a Child of five yean. This preparation acts upon the loots, for after an application, that portion of this hair nearest the scalp is found restored to tire original color, whatever it was, whilethe ends of the hair sow gray. Try Wood’s Hair Tonic, find dn not apply any other till after you bnvfc thhk With Ibis resolution you will noror have occasion to use n hair dye. v “ Caotios.— Beware of worthless imitations, ns several are already in the market, called by dif ferent names.
