PERSONAL. Mr. Eben Merriam, well known as aetatistician andmeteorologist, died at bis residence: No. 47 Orange street, Brooklyn N. T. on Saturday after noon, of dropsy of the liver. Thus has pas e<> ■away one who devoted a lifetime to the scientific and pecuniary benefit of hts fellow-men. Mr Merriam was born in Concord, Massachusetts -June 17,1704, and consequently was in the 70tb year of his age. Shortly a ter arriving at his ma jority he proceeded to Kentucky, where he war engaged lor a number of years i a the manufacture . and purification of saltpetre, as well as other min* •eral products of the Mammoth Cave, in that State. He subsequently engaged extensively in tne dry goods business in Zatesville, Ohio. Upon his re moval to New York about 26 years ago, he was a •manufacturer of soap and candles, and entered quite largely into that branch x>f business, accu mulating the foundation fora handsome compe tence.-' From his earliest childhood, it may be said Mr. Merriam exhibited a taste for scientific pursuits, and devoted his .vtention more particu larly to meteorological researches. His records oi tfie latter branch of his studies are intact, and ex tend even to the day of his death. He originated the idea, founded upon his own private observations. ! of cycles of atmospherical phenomena, which he, 'advanced in public prints with considerable en-; thusiasm. He attained extended notoriety in this respect,' not only in. this country but in Europe, andreceived many evidences of the correctness of histheory from scientific men abroad. Heattained considerable notoriety as a careful compiler or meteorological facts, and was frequently cited be fore the courts to decide disputed points. Brigadier-General S. A. Meredith has been : ordered to report to Gen. Rosecrans, at St. Louis, ; for duty. Rev. C* A. Rittenhouse, of the German Re formed Church at Turbucville, Northumberland county, has been commissioned as Chaplain of 7-h regiment Pennsylvania cavalry. The Rev. F* A. M heller, Pastor of St Jsmes T s Lutheran Church, of Reading, who'died in Germantown, on Friday, was a graduate of the Theological Seminary at Gettysburg, and soon alter his ordination to the ministry was called to Beading as assistant at Trinity Church, the duties Of which he continued to discharge-until the year 1650, when a portion of the congregation of Trinity separated from the mother Church and organized St.- James’ s Parish, at the same time electing. Mr Keller their pastor, which relation he held up to ■the time of his death. He also had charge of six congregatiens in the country, to whom he minis tered until a few months ago, when failing health obliged him to reliD quish them. Capt. Henry S. Knpp, Provost Marshal of the Berks county District, has forwarded tothe Presi dent his resignation. His successor Is not yet Appointed. Dr. Chancellor Martin, an old .and highly es teemed physician of Freeport, 111., died, aster a •briel illness, in that city on the Wthinst. Hestudied. medicine with Dr. White, of Cherry Valley, N. Y., and was licensed to practice in 1833. He went at once to Philadelphia and practised there, chiefly in the hospitals, until 1855, when he removed to New Orleans. In 1335, he went te Freeport, 111.. “then a mere hamlet, containing a few shanties, and from that till the hour of his death he re mained there, one of the old land-marks known to every one who has ever resided in the city or sur rounding country. - At Harrisburg.— The 46th, 50th and 93d Penn sylvania Regiments are now at Harrisburg. The 46th and 50th Regiments are under orders to goto Annapolis, where General Burnside’s corps is concentrating. The 93d is under orders for Har per’s Ferry, via Baltimore. The Johnstown Homicide.— I The Jury in the case of the Uomm6n wealth against Joseph Moore, indicted for the murder of Jordan Harbourg, on Thursday,at 2o’ clock P. M., found a verdict of murder in the second degree. They were out just three twenty minutes. The Judge’s .charge was very severe on the prisoner. It is ru mored that, when the jury retired, they stood one for finding a verdict of murder in the first degree, aixfor murder in the second degree and five for acquittal. It is also rumored that the entire jury bare signed a petition to the Governor praving for the pardon of the prisoner. It is supposed that the Judge will also sign the petition. The sentence of the court has not yet been pronounced. The prisoner exhibited bnt little emotion when the verdict of the jury was announced. 5 _ M ® BEAT. ESTATE—THOMAS ' VATE SALE REGISTER.

The United States Christian Commission has seized the present golden opportunity of.rest for the Army to extend its work for the good of the Soldiers. STATIONS have been multiplied, each with Us chapel and store tents, free writing tables, and clothing, comforts and reading matter for gra tuitous distribution. VOLUNTABY DELEGATES, in numbers greater than ever before, have been sent to preach the Gospel at the stations and in regiments, bat teries and camps without Chaplains, distribute reading matter and stores, and labor for the good of the Soldiers. A PEEMANENT FIELD AGENCY has been sufficiently extended' to establish stations and superintend the work. THE BLESSING OF GOD rests signally on all parts of the work. Many thousands have been cheered, benefited and saved. Still a large part of the Army remains unreached, and double the number, both of stations and delegates, are needed to meet the urgent demand lor them. The Christian Commission offers to the people a perfectly reliable and wonderfully economical channel to reach the entire army in all Its various fields. The money given goes in full measure, in benefits for body and sonl, directly to the Soldiers; and stores also, immediately from the hands of delegates from home, who add words and deeds of kii dness to the gifts wben bestowed. Let the people give the Money and Stores, and the work will be done. The large corps of Delegates now in the field will serve as a grand corps of relief when the armies shall move and battles be fought, and the greater their number the more prompt and effec tive will be the relief they shall render. Let not the present work languish. Walt not for the cry ot the wounded and dying before pro viding relief. .
