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.

Kahn's residence. 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

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. B. F. Warns.
