CITY BUbLETIN. Ft iAI. AtICETIN(7.— l A,aerican Union Corn enimion of Pennsylvania and New Jersey held their final meeting ytatcrday afternoon, at the office all. 11. Shilliegfeid, Bsq., No. 125 South Fourth street. The Pru merit, Samuel V. .Afer rick, Esq.. in the Chair. The work of this Coiumission began just after the war closed, and was Intended to show our erring brethren of the South Chit while loyalty to the Union was a marked fe 'Lure uniformly exhibited by our citizeus, yet this feeling was never suffered to eradicate from their hearts a readiness to extend to them 9t hand of brotherly love whenever tho opportunity should be afforded them to do so. • The CoMmission, animated by true Christian benevolence, commenced the work lu the State of Georgia, built school-houses and gathered into them eight hunched children of the poorest parentage, and having taken off thof in-- trodnmd them to the advantageseducation such as our own children at the North have long been favored with. And now, after two years of stieceasful labor,they have transferred their work to the citizens of the towns where they have thus been engaged. The following letter, just received from the lady who has been superintending the work in Atlanta, will show the regrets telt by all present when the day of separation at last came. ATfAtiTA, !earth ege, 11368. qr. Joseph Parker—DEAß weary Sin: lam es that 1 scarce know now to write, but will try to tell you of our schools wish I could send you a sketch of them as they appeared on the days of closing. Teachers and schotere looked sad. The feathers looked - weary and worn, add as we re. memberednow,after mingling t.gether In the school room for two years, sympathiziug with and sharing each other's Joys and sorrows. we were now about to separate, without a probability of meeting again in the capacity of a school, we all felt sad. • 'Jim closing examination, in the presence of several of the most prominent mon of the city was very creditable to both enholara and teachers. And after the close, as the children passed out, the silent pieseure of the hand and tear dimmed eyes spoke more than language could have done. Next day a lady told me she heard some of the 'iris say they wanted so much to tell me to thank the Union Commission, and to tell me how somy they were that I wad - going to leave Atlanta, but when they took my band they feltas if they were choking, and could not speak ono word. .worms the e Aerelees I heard some of the larger schol ars wish Sir. 'Parker could be present to see their lm Prevenient and know how thankful they were, and how much they regret that we are going to withdraw. 'I he teachers preferred to close the last of the week, and finding it would be the better way, Mrs. Miter closed on Thursday, P. M., and Mies Craig. head closed on Friday. .A. number of citlzi.irs were preterit both days. Several of them k iddeeseed the schoo after the cross of the exercises. All expressed very great surprise at the general appearance and Improvement of the children, and.old this school they_MlA never while they lieu forget the Union Commission. They spoke o f the large amount of labor and means that had been ex pended for therm &c., &e. 1 enclose a note from the men who secured the school house. They are moving the house now, and will core mence school as soon as the holm is ready. Mope to be present at the opening. Will rise sgaiu in a few days. Very rerpectrully pie" , 11. N. P.

Bee advertisement. —A Hungarian (dicer who served in the Union army halo written hie experience In Libby Prison. Mc says: "It was the law of Libby (a law, the might of which is inveloped in mystery) that Trbenerver a female was seen looming in the dis tance, her presence was announced by the loud call of 'gunboat,' and on such occasions there were desperate charges to the windows, which mirottld have eaterted admiration from the most rinwarlike spectator.” Accidimitd from Steam. The frequent appalling accidents resulting from the use of steam have.deservedly attracted public attention to the bast protective safe-guards against these disasters. And we can imagine no more beeelleent invention, or one more worthy of the widest adoption, than some- appliance which shall effectually meet andraviate the risks that now seem inseparable from the use of steam power.. Such an Instrumentality Seems at last to have been successfully' devised, and is entitled a Steam-focked Automatic Safety Valve. In company with a fevr well 'known citizens, we yesterday, by invitation, visited the large machine works of Messrs. Mer rick and Sons, at Fifth street and Washington avenue, for the pm pose of witnessing the practi cal operations of the "Valve" in question. Tho specimen which the Messrs. Merrick have now at tached to their own boilers Is adjusted to a sixty pounds pressure;. i, a., the instant that maximum of pressure is obtained this Steam-locked Auto matic Valve opens and allows the steam to es cape.. When we entered the area wherelhe test was to' take place the most intense curi osity prevailed as to whether the instrument would vindicate its claims at the point of pros sure named. The steam gauge was noted with great interest. The hand upon the dial marked 54 (fifty-four), and the doors of -the furnace belng closed the pressure rapidly rose. Fifty nine and a half was indicated. Still the "Valve" was quiet and unmoved. Thirty seconds later— the gauge marks sixty exactly, and at the same instant there is a shrill blast from the "Valve !" The Steam-locked Automatic Safety Valve has acquitted itself nobly,- and curiosity is on tip toe to see and hear about its distinguishing pecu liarities. It is an ingenious invention; one of the most inapertant mechanical contrivances of the age, we believe. To describe it properly would re quire the experienced pen of as engineer. Wo can only say, in general terms, that the inven tion appears to meet a great public want in a satisfactory way. The "Valve" differs totally from all others in use. It is locked-up, and self acting, and so arranged that its action is inde pendent of the agency of an —engineer. The ,utter may forget himself, fall asleep, or be un avoidably kept from his post, yet the pressure in the boilers cannot possibly rise above the limit for which the "Valve" is adjusted. The instru ment consists of a combination of two valves, one small, the other largo. The small one, to which the weight is attached, is so arranged that in opening it brings into play the large one, which opens a capacious orifice for the steam to escape rapidly, thereby reducing the press ure instantaneously. The form of the appli ance is compact, and it can be readily attached to the boilers of either stationary, locomotive, or marine engines. The prejudice entertained by some persons aglinst spring valves is in this entirely overcome. The action of the Locked Automatic Safety Valve does not depend upon the spriug at all, but is wholly operated by the current f stec in which presses upon one valve, that in turn beings the other into use. Each instrument, moreover, is supplied with an arrangement whereby the pressure in a boiler can be reduced by hand at any moment with the utmost despatch. Wherever it has been subjected to a practical test the result has been so entirely satisfactory that its general introduction can only be a question of time, and for the greater sqlety which it secures, if it had no other merits, we should feel authorized to recommend its adoption by the railroad companies through cut the country, and all other parties who ar e obliged to use steam power in their business. The Northern Central Railway Company have adopted it at their extensive shops at Baltimore, and on their road, with the best results, and the practical experiments at - Messrs. Merricka' foundry establish the value of the Steam-locked _Automatic Safety Valve beyond a doubt. The patentees of the article are Messrs. Taylor (Si Coale; the sole agents for their sale in th United States, Messrs. Potter & Jones, of this city, and their manufacturers, Messrs. Merrick ct Sons. Attempted Suiside off One of the Han lone. [From the Ilerripburg Telegrr.ph of the 24 3 Thomas Hanlon, one of the gymnasts, who are known all over the country, came to this city from the west, yesterday. He was accompanied by three small boys, pupils of the Hanlons, and, with them stopped at the State Capital Motel. He subsequently left there to take passage en a train for New York. About two o'clock this morning the boys were found at the depot, and Hanlon was discovered in Market square, where he gave every evidence that his mind was de ranged. He and the three lads were taken to' the Mayor's office, and kept until, this morning. At the hearing, it was deemed advisable to bold Hai lon until his friends could be heard from. and be was, accordingly, sent to prison. The boys were taken to the State Capital Hotel and properly cared for. A despatch forwarded to New York was answered, directing the Mayor to hold the entire party,until called for, and their friends are expected to arrive to-night. Thomas Hanlon fell from a trapeze while performing atOt. Louis, a few weeks ago, and it Is probable that the serious injuries be then sustained have affected, his mind considerably. This afternoon Hanlon attempted to commit suicide by running the length of his cell in prison and dashing his head against the wall. A num ber of strong men were called in to secure him o.bd may be able to prevent him from accomplish ing his purpose. Senator Wade on Protection. Mr. Wade has addressed the following letter to tia , Secretary of the American Industrial League: WAsitnicToN, Feb. 2.7, IXB.—Joka I..:q.:—Dear Sir—l am In receipt of your letter and the address, &e. You are right in supposing tee in hearty sympathy with the object of your League. The subject is by far the most import,. not that can occupy the thoughts of a states man, and, indeed, all others, and I shall be glad to co-operatd in every way possible. At preSent, in these exciting times, I have so much, on hand that it is impossible for me to devote much time to any one subject ; but you have my best wishes for your success, and whenever I can find an op portunity to lend a helping hand it shall be done with a will. , With great respect.
