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.

for finding a verdict of murder in the first degree,
aixfor murder in the second degree and five for

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. .
Send now and send abundantly both money and
stores, and the soldiers’ blessing shall be upon
you..
