Untervtew of Government Employes with Uie President. A committee, consisting of the employes of the Quartermaster’s Department, waited upon the President to-day, for the purpose ■of obtaining from him a reply in answer to their petition relative to the reduction of their pay. The President dissents from the reasons of the Quartermaster-General fof the reduction, and in a communication to the Secretary of War requests him at once to designate, competent officers as a board to make inquiries,' and report' to the War De |>arfanent the rates which be al- This order, he adds, will apply to the two petitions accompanying the application, to ■ whioh.these instruoiions .refer. and will for the present, operate against any reduotioh of .the wages of the employe -* in whose into - rest they have been presented,/ i o , The Tax ou Canned Articles. The following is the decision of the Trea sury Department, relative to the taxes upon , oanned meats, vegetables, <fco,: By the amendatory act of July 13th,;i866, a stamp duty is imposed Upon “every can, bottle, or other single package containing meat, fish, shell-fish, fruits, vegetables, sauces, syrups, prepared mustard, jama or jellies, contained therein and nacked or : sealed. made, prepared and sold, or offered ' for sale,'or removed for consumption in the United States, on or after the Ist day of Oc tober 1866 ’’ ' While it is believeid that it was the pur pose and intent of Congress to impose a stamp tax upon the above-named articles, ' if Bold or offered for sale, or removed for consumption in the United States, en or after October Ist, 1866, regardless of the timai of their manufacture or production, that inf tent is so imperfectly expressed as to render . it doubtful whether, under a proper cott-- struction of the language of the statute, such a tax' can be collected. Internal Bevenue officers are therefore instructed not to interfere with the possession or sale of such articles, of domestic manufacture or production, when satisfactory evidence is famished that they were prepared and passed oat of the possession or the producer prior to the Ist day of October. • Oysters and other shell fish are often re moved from the shell, and without under going any . process for their preservation, are placed,in a raw state,in tin or other ves sels fox the sole purpose of transportation in ice. When put up in this manner and for this purpose only, they are not regarded as canned, within the meaning and intent of the law, no stamps - will be required upon them. Articles named in Schedule C, when im ported or. of foreign manufacture, are liable to the stamp tax in addition to the impost duties thereon. When, however, such im ported articles, except playing cards, lncifer or friction matches, cigar lights or wax tapers, are sold in the original or unbroken packages, in which the bottles or other in closnres were packed by the manufacturer, the person so selling them is not subject to any penalty on account of the want of a proper stamp; bnt when such packages are opened, the articles should not under any circumstances be offered or exposed for sale until they- had been appropriately stamped. Antiquities of Erie County. Erie county, like Lake Erie, derives its name from a powerful tribe of Indiana known as the Eries or Irrironnous, who -once occupied thesouthem shore of the lake. Although supposed originally to have been of the same family as the Iriqnois, or Five Nations, they waged war with them, until they were utterly extirpated about 1655, after the Iroquois learned the use. of fire armß. The name of the Eries was said to signify Wild-Cats. Erie county was separated. from Alleghe ny by act-of 12th March, 1860, but for seve ral years, and, for all county purposes, Crawford, Erie,' Mercer, Venango and War ren formed but one county, under the name of Crawford. On the 2d 6f April, 1803, Erie county was fully organized for judicial pnr pases. The first fort erected at Erie was known as Fort de la Pres quisle. It was probably erected early in 1749, but the precise time ' -does not appear. It was daring that year - tbe l'rench sent emissaries and armed men throughout the Ohio valley to drive off or . arrest the English traders who had ventured into that region from the Eastern colonies. The town of Erie was laid out by General Win. Irvine and Andrew Ellicott, in 1795, in conformity with an act passed in April •of that year. Mr, Ellicott had charge of the -engineers, and General Irvine commanded -a small detachment of troops for their pro tection, previously {Mated by General Wayne. General Wayne returned in 1796, and died in the garrison, and at his own re quest was buried at the foot of the flag-staff. Subsequently his remains were removed to Delaware county. The most important -event that occUrredat Erie, in its early his tory, was the building of Perry’s fleet. ’ Captain Perry, then only twenty sis years of age, arrived at Erie our the 27th of • February, 1813, and immediately urged on the work which had been already commenced. The • Northern / frontier of Pennsylvania and Ohio was at that time little better than a wilderness; supplies and -artisans had to be brought from the Atlantic •coast, and the timber for the vessels cut from the forest. In the face of a thousand obstacles Perry succeeded in getting his vessels ready to leave the harbor in the early part of August; though he was still greatly in want of officers and men, parti cularly seamen. HO was soon after joined by reinforcements, and the fleet we at up •toward the head of the lake, and on the 10 th of September his victorious engagement was fought off Put-in Bay. The first military commission executed by Washington was by direction of Gov. Dinwiddie —of the then colony of Virginia, of which' this portion of Pennsylvania was then, in 1853, considered a part—by a march to; Waterford. Maj. George Washington, then a young man of twenty-one years, was •despatched on a mission to Monsieur De : -St. Pierre, the commander of Fort De Boeuf, to enquire into the designs of the French in thus occupying the-dominions of his Bri tanio Majesty. He was accompanied by a pioneer, a French and an Indian in- terpreter, and joined at different points on the Ohio and Allegheny rivers, havings started from a post on the -Ohio, by Indian Chiefs and hunters who i were favorable to his cause. Hisjourney up ■ the streams and over the country is described -in his report as very tedious and perplexing, and the result of his visit not altogether sat isfactory. He did not succeed ,in learning the exact strength of the French in their dif ferent forts, or their entire purposes, but , obtained information whion afterward proved veryiusefuL The Freneh strove to deprive him of his Indian, allies,' and to embarrass and perplexhim nsmucnaspos sible.. He was fifteen days: making the journey from - Venango (now -Franklin) to Waterford and return. It was winter. and the streams were frozen and the swamps filled with snow. —Erie {Pennsyl vania) Despatch. The Case of tbe Baltimore Police'Corn* mlssleners. Baltimore, Oct. 29.— The examination of the charges was resumed to-day at An napolis. Some twenty witnesses' were ex amined, and at one o’clock the prosecution announced that they were through, but would have some rebutting evidence. The examination of the witnesses for the defence will\commence to-morrow. The evidence to-day elicited nothing of importance. Fire in Baltimore. * _ Baltimore, Oct. 29.—A fire broke out to night in a large warehouse, No. 246 Balti more street, occupied by the Fairbanks’ Scale Company, and by Marston A Brooks, china store. During the progress of the fire 1 the cornice of the building fell, badly in jurlng three firemen who were on the ladder. Two of them, it is thought will die. The lobs by the fire ia quite heavy. The stook in th tear pet store of Messrs. Turnhill was slightly damaged. ■- Xlie Attack onMammoras Postponed. Galveston, Oct. 29.— Brownsville papers received here say that a new revolution from , Ortega, is anticipated. Cortinas has postponed the attack on Matamoras, at the request of Tapia. Juarez sent Ccmmisr sioners to Canales, who put them in the calaboose. The ex-rebel Postmaster-General, Rea gan, £publishes a long letter, referring to a former letter. He is strongly in favor of negro suffrage, and granting them all the righta of white men. He says any man un willing to do this is a, demagogue, Egypt,— A letter of the 27th of September from Alexandria, Egypt, says that the country was threatened with an inundation of the Nile, then very high. There was ■ great anxiety for the crops, which were very tine in all RowerEgypt,and which it is feared would be spoiled. Every precaution was being taken, but the situation of affairs seriously afleoted trade. The revolt in Candia will have imposed heavy charges oh the Egyptian Treasury. The Viceroy is said to haye.ftirnishedthirty thousand men, four of his principal generals, including the Minister of War, money, coal,ammunition and provisions,} The Suez ; Canal Company contemplates soon undertaking the trans port Of certain kinds of merchandise, but it i seems doubtful whether they will be able to .Supply sufficient means ofconveyance. The traffic across Egypt is enormous. Eatbly in a very short space of time, twelve thousand bales of manufactured goods for India passed over the Suez line, and a great deal of ootton comes frohrßombay by that route, There has been- a reduction Of twenty-five per cent, on the rate Of carriage of goods ■sent by.Blowtrains. Game in Vibginia.— The Riohmond En quirer says: “Game of all kinds is to be found now in this region. Partridges are more abundant than for many years; hares jump from behind every bush; coons infest every oorn-field; opossums spoil every per simmon tree; squirrels fill the forest; foxes bark around every hennery, and the music of the hounds resounds on every breeze. The crack of the sportsman’s rifle and the dawn of day greet us simultaneously, while the huntsman’s horn and the set of sun bid farewell to the parting day.’’ MBBOBB mb frames george a beukauff, Manufacturer of LOOKING-GLASSES.

This la so apparent that they are now being applied by many to these valuable mu sical Instruments. Dr. Valentine Mott previous to his ceath. pronounced the Glass Castor wheels an in valuable Invention for bedOst invalids, who are guarded against the damp floors after undergoing the process of cleaning, or where dampness Is produced from any other cause. Aside from this. Housekeepers are relieved from the dread of having their carpets cut or tom, as frequently happens from those now in use, often caused by a rust which adheres with glue-like tenacity. No such annoyance can possibly proceed from the Glass Castor wheels, as we all know that glass is non-corrosive. There are no rough or unfin ished edges to the Glass Wheels, such aa we often find iD those of Iron, and the latter, though smoothly fin ished, will soon rust from the dampness of the atmos phere, If nothing else, producing roughness on the sur face, or edge, while the former will always maintain the smooth nets of glass, just aa they are finished. By sleeping upon glass wheels yon retain all the eleo tricity you had in your body on retiring, and you gel np in the morning feeling as fresh and active as a young man. Glass being a non-conductor, the elec tricity gained While in bed cannot -pass off. Ask yonr doctor what he thinks of the Glass Castor Wheels Ask him if all diseases, with the exception of chronic diseases, are not caused from the want of electricity. We have a man In our place whom the doctors pro nounced past curing, with the Inflammatory rheu matism. The wheels cored him In less than four weeks. He Is to-day a stoat healthy man. These are facts which can be proven on application at our office No. 203 Race street, Philadelphia, or at our Factory At WestvUle, New Jersey, where we have some sixty hands employed In the manufacture of the Glass Cas tor Wheels. two will be paid to any one who will say they have ootrectlved any benefit or relief after using Oapewel] A Co.'s Patent Glass Castors.
