117.11CANTILE. LIBRARY.— file Directors of the
Mercantile Library Company met on Friday
evening, for the purpose of reorganizing, in con
formity with the lately-amended charter.
Hereafter the Board is to consist of eighteen
members, to be arranged in three Classes, one
class to be elected each year. The folio wing per
sons drew the lot for the first class, and their term
of office will expire at the next election, in Feb
ruary. viz : Messrs. J. C. Grubb, E. K. Stevenson.
J. S. Weimer, S. E. Harlan, Edward Taylor and
C. M. Taylor. Messrs. John Lardner,O. FL Wil
son, W. A. Rohn, J. G. Barnwell, A. S. Letch
worth and J.H. Watt constitute the second class,
and will serve till February, 1870. Messrs. A. I.
Fish, W. D. Gemmill, Oliver Evans, Richard
Wood T. Morris Perot and Edward Bains form
the third class, and will retain office until Feb
ruary, 1871. •
An election for officers was held,which resulted
as follows, viz.: T. Morris Perot, President;O. IL
Wilson, Vice President: John L udder. Recording
Secretary; A. I. Fish, Corresponding Secretary,
and A. S. Letchworth. Treasurer.
This organization of the Board, in conformity
with the demands of the hltcrcd circumstances
of the institution, seems to be universally acqui
esced in, and is to be token as a pledge of tue
early accomplishment of the groat enterprise now
in band. The work upon the new building is
rapidly going forward, and with proper co-opera
tion of the members and friends of the institu
tion, the library will soon be transferred to more
convenient and spacious apartments than have
ever been provided for any mercantile library in
the country. It is quite in ktt_tplug with the
reputation that Philadelphia has had for intelli
gence and liberality,that its most extensively used
library should bo thus generously provided for.
FATAL RESULT OF SKYLARIUNG.-011 Tuesday
last Felix Dorsey and Pierce Lacey were out to

White and surrendered himself. He was placed
in the custody of Sergeant Crout, of the Reserve
Corps, to await the result of the Coroner's iu•
quest. He Is a drayman and resides on Gothic
street. He bears au excellent character.
A LABOR FUNERAL.—The funeral of James
Young, the policeman who was murdered on

and Catherine streets, yesterday. There was a
large turnout of the police force of the city, and
a long train of carriages. The interment took

THE FIRST SNOW.- To-day the weather is de
cidedly wintry. A strong northwest wind sprung
up about daylight, and about eight o'clock this
morning there was a tall of snow for two or
three minutes. About eleven o'clock the sky was
suddenly obscured by a cloud, and there was
another spit of the white flakes. For a minut , :
or two the hard pellets came down quite lively.
FOUND DRON ten o'clock last night, at
Shippeu street wharf, on the Delaware, the body
of Gilbert Pinkney, third mate of bark Llz'ie
Durkee, was found floating in the dock. The
deceased was twenty-two years of age, and a
native of Yarmouth, N. S. He had been missing
for three days.
BunYAa'r PII.(;111M'b PROGRESS.—AIthough
nearly two hundred years old, no book., C):
cept the Bible, is more read and pondered by
Christian people than the immortal allegory of
Bunyan. By our advertising columns it will be
seen that Rev. Dr. Stryker. lately from New
York, now pastor of the North Broad Street
Presbyterian Church, is preaching on Sibbath
e volita — g - a — ca ti ne et` sermons on " Gospel Truth
as Illustrated by Bunyah's Pilgrim's Progress."
We understand there was a large audience in at
tendance last Sabbath evening, and we doubt
not the audience and their Interest will increase
as the subject progresses. There is a fascination
abcut old Bunyan which is quite irresistible.

Hiram Ward presided, and opened the proceed
ings by making an address urging upon all

WANTING a now snit for our coachman tho
other day, we sent him to Oak Hall, and he was

NATIONAL Crusrs.--Itev. T. Do Witt 'Talmage
announced to his congregation last Sunday night
that he would on the two following Sunday even
lugs speak of the duties of Christian men in this
national crisis.
OUR TOWNSMAN. J. E. CALDWELL ? has re
turned in the Scotia, having visited the Euro
pean marts for.the purpose of selecting n stock
for his establishment, No. 002 Chestnut—which
is said to be the finest stock ever brought to this
city.
CITY N 0 rI'IC)ES
A WANT SUPPLIED.
To !MOW where to boy the numerous articles of Dry
Goods constantly requited by every household has
been a frequently recurring problem to all our citi
zens. We have for years felt the need of some Central
Emporium, where not only a general assortment of
goods could be found, bat the character of the house
give assurance that the prices were, beyond doubt, us
low as the same goods could be found anywhere.
Much time has been consumed by every housekeeper
in goir g from place to place, not only Idtomplete the
assortment needed, but to ascertain by comparison
whether the prices were right. llow often has the
wish been expressed that this were not necessary ; that
we had one place where all kinds of Staple and Fancy
Div Goods could he comfortably selected, and the pri
cer; implicitly relied on as being as low as the market
affords. Strangers especially have often felt this
nerd, and persons from the surrounding country well
know how irksome is a day's shopping when many
places have to bp visited instead of one.
The Central Dry Goods Emporium of Messrs Straw
bridge & Clothier has been established with the view
of supplying this want. To build up a business on a
scale that will afford low prices, and constantly main
tain a reputation fur fair dealing (without which any
tureens. is a fallurt), is the determination of this firm.
Withholding for the present further notice of this
new enterprise, we refer our readers to the advertise
ments of Messrs. Stra*bridge & Clothier, and to a
personal inspection of their new establishment at
Eighth and Market e treets.

Pt erANITY.—P, philosopher says that If any
thing will make a women swear, it is looking for her
night-c'T after the lamp 's blown out. And then her
swearing w,ulti be mulling compared to taut of a man
who has bona In coal and tonnd tt to be full of cinders.
He would naturally think himself cheated, and would
make a change in tits patronage. People who any their
coal of W. W. Alter, 957 North Ninth ,street, never
have reason to he dissatisfied with it, and that is the
varlet of Mr. Alter's success. What customers he gets
he keeps, and Is constantly adding to the list.

Sprang Garden streets.
A NEW ELECTION.—The electiQns are over and
both parties can take a rest after the exciting work of
the week. Some are steamier], while others are in no
gentle humor, threatening to contest. Now if there
was to be an election to decide who made the best con
fectionery, the unanimous vote of the city would be
cast for E. G. Whitman Se Co , No. 315 Chestnut sr_
There wouldn't be a dissentitg voice in all the vast
come unity.
E. G. W..s Co. stand to-day the recognized head of
the confectionery trade, arid well do they deserve the
proud position, Their tine bon.bons. roasted Jords.n

IT IS WoNDEnFut. how cheap goods are sold at
Gay's China Palace, 1022 Chestnut street. The stock
was all selected by 31r. Gay in person from the largest
manufactories in Europe. The cause of their being so
remarkably cheap is the great reduction of prices on
the other side of the water. Business being very doll,
all the !MILLI facturerB have large stocks on hand, and
are willing to discount largely to effect sins. Below
we quote prices of a few staple goods. Fancy are at a
