Wru Kike Cohmst.— The importance
~i having a good file {company in this place, was
li‘ lv apparent on the night of the late fire. The
‘V, Uno a Will Compeer has been entirely broken
i„ removals from the town end enlistments
u,e army, and the remaining members ere ex
ceedingly anxious to form a new company of per
ni-nt residents of the |dace. There are not now
eau „gh of the Old members to run the engine to a
fire , consequently, if it is to be brought into use
hereafter, there must be a filling np of the compa
ny The engine, one of the best in tbe.Stale, has
been recently overhauled, and is now in perfect or
der read v ty use on any occasion. The Good Will.
Company have also a fine hose carriage which
mus[ be mannal. Will not our people, those who
have properly in the town and who are most in
terested’in having a good, reliable fire company,
join this compauv at)d acquaint themselves with
the working of an engine, so that they may be of
gome service, in case of a fire, in saving the.r |
neighbors property if not their own Everything ;
being in good order, ready for use. let us have the;
„,en to man the ropes, etc., and get the engiueand, |
h.U ,the spot. Where they are wanted. Heretofore I
th,, company has been made up, almost entirelly, of;
persons who had no property. They did the work,
while those interested looked on. This should
|,c the ease. One other matter We wish to
mention, and it b this. While our property own
ers have allowed others to work the engine and
carry the hose at fires, thus taking the labor and
-1-k tney have not even supplied the money topay
fur the engine. .Ws learn from a, Member of the
company that there is still some $4OO dollars due
on the engine. This amount has been on interest
for some five years, and it is high time it was
paid. And who should pay it? Certainly, those
who are tube benefuted. No man should say that
because he is insured he-necd not contribute. Every
tire insurance company that his insured property
in the town should contribute something, and we
believe they will, if a good company be organized.
Then let us have a good company at once, and
make the effort to wipe out this debt. Unless our
citizens take hold of this matter, the engine will
Siand in its house hereafter, as a half-dozen men
cannot run it to a fire.
UKiTH op Kobkrt M. S. Jackson. — IntelU—
was received in this city yesterday, of the.
aeoe.ise o.‘ Dr. Robert M. S. Jackson, formerly of
Crowm, Cambria county, Pennsylvania. He
ilild «1 Chattanooga, Tennessee, holding at the
lime the position of Medical Inspector of 'the
Twenty-third Army Corps, and Acting Medical;
Director of the Department of Ohio. Dr. Jack-'
~,t, was widely known throughout the State, being
distinguished for great force of character, decided!
opinions, and some eccentricity withal. He was
u men of strong and generous feelings, and intense
in ins patriotism. As a scientific man he had few
lioisjn Pennsylvania. He was thoroughly
vei lin all departments of science, and as a
ge0!,...-isi and botanist was specially distinguished.
II" a as a tnenthes of the Pennsylvania Geological
Commission, of which Professor Rodgers wasi
chi' f. and very much of the results of that survey
are line to the skill and industry of Dr, Jackson.
He was an enthusiastic mountaineer, and. believed
that in the pure air of the Alleghenies the enervated
and listless inhabitants of cities and the lowlands
would find health strength and energy. He pub
lished-some years ago a work called “The Moun
tain," which is distinguished by a love of nature
and by a scientific, handling of the topics, which,
without being too technical, is of a character to
elevate the human mind and teach' the reader to
look from nature up to nature’s God. Some of
Dr. Jackson’s views are bold and startling, but his
fine command of language, his chaste and vigor
ous style, places the book among the most remark-,
able of its kind ever written. Dr. Jackson was a
member of the American Philosophical Society,
Academy of Natural Sciences, and learned insti
tutions. His character created for him warm
friends wherever he was known, and his untimely
death will not be unlamented. —Phita Inquirer .

R. R. Changes.— Tlie Pittsburg l^Afa 'amfr cud,
of Tuesday, was slightly previous in Wrannonnce
ment of gome of the changet of officers of thff
Penn’* Rail Road. Those announced by us last
week, and those published below, are alt that .have
yet been officially made, viz:—Cal. F. Sellers,
lias been appointed Division Telegraph Operator
at this station, in' room of Will M'Cormick, pro
moted to Supt. of Telegraph. John Reilly has
taken the position of chief clerk to Gen’l Superin
tendent, vacated by Mr. Darlington, and William
C. Keller has taken charge of- the; Car Record
Office,in room of Mr. Reilly. All these promo
tions are in the regular line, and merited by faith
fulness and business qualifications exhibited in
former situation*.
Killed,— We regret to learn that James Hutch
inson, son of James Hutchinson, Esq,, of Eldora
do, wag killed in the assault on Fort Fisher, He
was not yet 20 years of age, belonged to the Navy,
in which branch of the service he enlisted torn*
months ago. His worthy parents have the: sym
pathy of all in their bereavement.—Rtyisier.
f«« I Hook asp Ladpm Compear—We to
ftmm i haTe * Hotik.and Ltiddar company in this
* ' town. In another place we hare appealed to our
citizens to re-organize theGoddWill Engine Com
; patty, bat this will not prevent the formation of
''| the company to which we now Prefer. There are
men enough to 111! up both companies and make
them what they should be. All that is required
is gel our people aroused to a sense of their duty
and interest. A Hook and ILadder Company is
almost as important as an engine company. One
of the companies should be qn tlzie West side of
the railroad. Were there a cignplete Hook and
{Ladder Company, with a hose .carriage attached,
on the West side of the road, much work could be
done at a fire ere the engine could be brought
over, as not untreqoently the Annie street crossing
is olocked with cars, and tbe engine must be
taken to the upper end or 'lower end of town to
get it over. 1 Besides, ladders Jare often of much
service to engine companies.
We have heretofore suggested tbe formation of
such a company, but no action,has been taken.—
The same may be tbe case this time, bnt the fault
is ndt ours. We shall do our duty in urging such
precautions, in case of fires, as seems imperatively
I necessary, and leave the responsibility with those
i who are interested. When a fire occurs wc .find
: many men ready to condemn the fire company, or
I somebody, because everything did not work to
their pleascment, and for The moment they are for
a new Engine Company, or aHook and Ladder
Company, but soon they forget their danger and
their good intentions, and we hear the same old
song at the next fire. Now led the companies be
organized and made what they should be, ur let
;he fault-finders hold their tongues.

Internal Revenue. —Through the courtesy of
Bobett H. Canan, Esq., clerk; for Samuel J. Roy
er, Esq., Collector of Internal Revenue for this
[l7tb] district, the Johnstown Tribune has been
famished with the following tabular statement of
the comparative receipts of revenue from all sour
ces during the years 1863 and 176-t. The receipts
during the year 1862 were so trifling that it was
not deemed necessary to embrace them in the
statement ; ;

, It will be seen that, under the operations of the
internal revenue law, as amended June JO, 1864,
the collections of revenue, from July 1, 1864, to
June 30, 1865, will approximate half a million of
dollars in this district. There are not many di
stricts in the State that pay a heavier tax for the.
support of the Government, or pay it moie promptly.
f- i
Stamm Upon Deeds. —Persons who have hous- |
es and lots to sell mast lie careful herealter to make I
tiieir hargains certain upon ihe subject of stamps. 1
The usage in sales of property heretofore has been
jJtat individuals who bought should be at the ex
pense of deeds, acknowled groents. and all searches j
proper against the owner. Where it was necessary
to go back of the title ot the latter, and the searches
were such as he ought to have got when he pur
chased, he would be charged with the expense.
But otherwise the rule that the buyer of real estate
pays ail expenses has been so common that when
the stamp regulation was established, it was as
sumed as a matter of course that the purchaser was
to bear that expense also. But it seems that this
assumption is unauthorized law. The .Supreme
Court of this State yesterday decided that unless
there is a special agreement to the contrary, the
seller of the real estate must pay for the stamp,
because he is required to affix it to the deed, This
is a matter of considerable importance, as the cost
of stamps is one dollar upejn each one thousand
dollars of the price, and iwhen heavy sales are
made, the stamp is a considerable item. Here
after the prudent man will agree to*sell his prop-,
erty for so much, “and the cost of the stamp.”
Thbbb-Cent Notis.—-The new three-cent
fractional currency just issued is very handsome. —
In the centre there is a fine medallion of, Wash
ington, and in each of the upper corners, a sheild
with the figure “3” upon .it, and the words “E
Pluribus Unum” underneath. On the reverse side
“HI" appears on each of the corners, and in the
centre there is a large “3” upon a green field.
The note has the fractional currency on both sides.
The engraving is beantifnlly executed, and.it will
be almost an impossibility fo counterfeit the notes.
Notes of this denomination, to the amount of $15,-
000, were issued on Wednesday last.
Shabp Transaction.—‘The following operation
ytaf performed on last Friday at the Prorost Mar
shal’s. officer A man enrolled in Woodberry
township authorized a broker here to put
jn a substitute for him, limiting the price to the
g am bf $1,200. The broker employed another in
Allegheny township to put in the substitute limi
ting him to $l,OOO. The last put in a poor, ig
norant follow and gave {lim $3OO. So that
i of the $l2OO paid by the principal, the substitute
got $BOO. the first broker $2OO, and the second
$7OO. Comment is unnecessary .—Rtgitter.

genuine, no matter how porn or defaced they may
be, provided one-twentieth part-thereof banot mis

B'mcethe organization of thiscompany in 1192,

very marked, having now a capital and surplus of
over $1,600,000, and during which time they have
paid losses amounting to over seventeen millions
of dollars.
In Philadelphia, where the management of this
company is lest known, it epjoys a well deserved
popularity, as the result of long triediiud faithful
services, and large liberality in the adjustment of
losses ; the officers, Arthur G. Coffin, Esq., Presi

wife of Lawrence P. Work, aged 35 years.
The friends of the deceased hare consolation in the fact
that ere she died she left with them the evidence that she
had made her peace with God, and that she has only ex
changed a life of care and sorrow for one of everlasting
bliss, that although she Is lost to them, their loss has been
her great gain. Uer death was peaceful and happy, and
of her may be said “How bleat the Christian when she
dies." ;
