At a meeting of the peer directors of the ceuntie:; of Pennsylvania, in state con vention at Harrisburg yesterday, Lancas ter was represented by B. F. Cox, superin tendent of the almshouse and hospital, and Gee. Spurrier, treasurer of the beard. There was a very large meeting. Sir. Cox was one of the vice presidents of the con vention. Various questions of public in terest were discussed, the outcome of which was the adoption of the following : Resolved, That it is against public policy te admit able-bodied persons as inmates of a poerhousc. Resolved. That the almshouse receive all cases applying for admission, for lying-in purposes, and that the fathers of the chil dren be prosecuted te the full extent of the law. Jlesulced, That the custody of the insane, (the curable as well as the incurable,) should be taken, with the qualifications hereafter mentioned, absolutely out of the hands of the poerhousc of the state, and of township overseers ; that even the best county asylums afford insufficient saie guaids for this class, and that a present fair standard of care cannot be relied en in view of the changes in economy and su pervision liable te eceur under diflcrcnt administration. Resolved, That se long as the previsions by the state looking te this end, through a per capita allowance and hospital accom modations, continue te be insufficient as an economical inducement, the Jaw be comes positively inoperative. Resulted, That in view of the peculiar claims of this class for protection at tnc hands of the state, the arrangements for which are reorganized se liberally in the eastern and western and some of the ether states, by the entire assumption of the care and suppett of the insane, irrespective of condition as in Ohie: therefore. , Ilcselccd, That measures in this direc tion should be taken promptly, as the sev eral counties arc contemplating the support of their insane at home, ami arc with drawing their cases from the state hospitals into asylums that are being erected in con nection with the poerhouscs, by which the value of the curative advantages of our sta e hospitals will, in great part, be lest. Rcsvhcd, That the discrimination in favor of the acute class being sent te the hospitals cannot be relied en should the law limit their benefits te this class, al though inoperative in its terms. But if imperative in requiring that all in poor peor poer houscs, curable or incurable, recent or chronic, shall be removed te the state bos bes pitals, it would net preclude the retention of the poeihoiiM-o of that class of the c'lrenie insane who aie apablc of self care and of rendering assistance in household and out-deer work. Careful investigation shows that quite a number of these patient may be made as comfet table in geed poor peer houses and be as well pievided for at the same time and at less expense, as in the lunatic hospital-'. Resolved, That we recommend the pas sage of an act by the Legislature of the commonwealth, prohibiting the commit ment of children between two and sixteen years of age te any jail or peer house, and make tiie violation efthcactamisdcmcau or punishable with'pcnalties. Accident te u Markctmau. Bcfeic daybreak this morning Mr. Henry F. Trout, while driving en the Harrisburg turnpike northwest of this city, met ith an accident which might have proved very serious, but fortu nately did net. He was en his way te maiket with a lead of produce and had hi.s little daughter with him. Coming te a rough place in the pike he attempted te drive down te the summer re.id. As it was dark, he could net see that the pike at this point was several feet higher than the Miiuiiier read, and supposing it te be only of the usual grade, lie drove ee'r the embankment, upsetting the wagon. His heise, a spiiitcd one, dashed madly forward through the darkness, but luckily the belt that couples the front tun ning gear te the ether pat t of the vehicle fclf out, anil the horse ran away with the .shafts and fieut wheels only, leaving Mr. Tieut and his daughter lying unhurt in the ether pait of the chicle. The hoi se was caught, and after daybreak Mr. Trout fixed up his wagon, gathered up his mar keting and came en te Lancaster. Bitten by a Deg.

Instantly the deg sprang at him,sink ing his teeth into the little boy's cheek, and lacerating it severely. Mr. Lcwin sucked the wound and had it cau terized by Dr. Albright. There is no fear cut ci tained that it will result seriously. At the request of Mr. Lewin ami some etheis. Mr. Kuapp had the deg shot. It was a pet and had been for years the companion of the little girl with whom it was playing at the time it bit the little boy, and would allow no one te lay a hand en its little mistress.

New the bins arc filled with coal and awaiting the arri val of the canal beats. The reason for this is that a break occurred very recently in the tide water canal near the feet of the "live mile level."
