ommandary complimented—A Pita.
sant Trip—The Departure for home.
The Sixteenth Annual Conclave of
Knights Templars of the State, com
menced on Wednesday morning at Erie,
Pa. The city is crowded with visitors
from various sections of the country
where Com manderies have been organiz
ed. The representation in the Conclave is
unusually large, and thus far the pro
ceedings have been marked with much
interest and harmony. In the morning
at eight o'clock, the Grand Council of
Cryptic Masons held their annual- meet
ing when the following officers were
elected and installed for the ensuing
year: C. F. Knapp, M. P. G. M., James
M. Porter, R. P. D. G. M., Geo. V. Maus.
R. P. G. J. M., G. C. Shidle, R. P. G. P.
C. of W., Chas. E. Meyer, R. P. G. M. of
E. T. W. Wright, R. P. G. R.
The followi C gn were also eleeted ocers
of the Grand onunandery for 1869 . ffi
The
greatest uniformity prevailed, the few
offices being carried by the successful
candidates by heavy majorities:
Sir J. H. Hopkins, G. C.,1 bir H. B.
McLean, D. G. C., Sir C. M. Howell, G.
G., Sir Abraham _Miller, (c.) G. Si r F Sir Rev. J. R. Dimm, Prelate, Sir F.
J. Evans, G. S. W., Si; Nathan Smith,G;
J. W., Sir R. A. O. Kerr; G. Treakurer,
Sir Alfred Creigh, G. Recorder.
Most ofthe forenoon was consumed in
the business of the Order and reception
of visiting Sir Knights. I
'ln the afternoon large crowds began to
gather about the streets in anticipation of
the Grand Parade, which was one of the
finest affairs of the kind ever participated
in by the Order. Over four hundred Sir
Knights were in line in full uniform, and
presented -an exceedingly handsome
rance. e ttsburh Coandeap
pepoken of T a h s b Pi ng esp g cially m cmnspicuous and attractive. After passing through
the principal streets, the procession was
hilted on Park Row, formed in - double
column and marched in from the rear
with swords at a "present arms," the of
ficers of the Grand Commandery lead
ing the way to Farrar Mill, where
the installation of Grand Officers took
place. This ceremony is one of the most
beautiful rites of the Order. - Sir Knight
Hopkins, after taking the oath of
allegiance, and being invested with the
insignia and jewels of his office, installed
and invested the other officers in due
form. On taking his place as Right Em
inent Grand Commander of the State 'of
Pennsylvania, he delivered a brief, stir
ring address, stating that he appreciated
the high honor conferred upon him by
the trust reposed; and• exhorting them,
with him, to follow the high teachings of
the principles of the Order as the soldiers
t " of Henry of Navarre followed the white
plume of their leadt3r.
After the installation, the Grand Com
mander introduced the Grand Prelate,
Rev. J. R. Dimm, of Philadelphia, orator
of the day, who delivered an e loquent
and pertinent address on "Christian
Knighthood," in ' whiott he dwelt at
length, and in an able manner upon the
principles and aims of the Order. The
address was well received and frequently
interrupted with applause.
At its conclusion, the ceremonies of the
day were over, and the Conclave closed
its session.
TER PITTSBURGH COHMANDART.
The following acxxiant of a pleasure
trip by the Pittsburgh Commandary; we
clip from the Erie Dispatch of yesterday:
Most of the Sir Knight vistors took
their departure for their homes yester
day forenoon, but , the Pittsburgh Corn.
mandary had come on pleasure as well
as tisiness, and while a few went to
Niagara Falls,the majority remained here
to see the city and test its hospitality.
Yesterday afternoon, a body of about
sixty members of the Order, including
moat of the newly elected officers of the
Grand Commandary, preceded by the
splendid Great Western Band, marched
down street to pay a visit to Captain
Jouett and his staff, on board of ' the
United States Steamer Michigan. The
Captain, as everybody along the
line of the Lakes knows. Is a frank, gen
ial, whole.soled man, every inch a gen
tleman, And as thorough paced in con
tributing to the hearty enjoyment of
his friends in time of peace as he is in
getting into the hottest of the fight when
lighting Is the order of the day, and of g
the last, we may say that Admiral Parra- 1
gut considered Captain Jouett his right
hand man; The visitors were received
with a "square" welcome by the Captain,
officers and crow of the Michigan. and af
ter partaking of a little cheer in the cabin,
whiled away an hourvery pleasantly. The
Great Western Band, considered tlie best
in the State, were in high spirits and
played everything from Yankee Doodle
to Dixie, with more than usual gusto.
Dignity was fur the nonce pitched aside,
and unreserved fun took its place. Some
ono found a sailor who could sing an ex
cellent comic song, and be was straight
way brought forward, giving "Captain
Jinks" excellently. The next thing was
a "break-down," rather irregular, as a
dozen or more were trying to dance at
ionee. After a short respite, the Sir
;Knights were called to order, a request
lhaving been made that Lieut. Smith,
(whose ability as an elocutionist is well
known, should give them a reading.
The "Wounded Soldier" was chosen and
well rendered, as the applause testified,
after which, with three hearty cheers
and a tiger for Captain Jouett, the Mich
igan, _her officers and crew, the Com
mandery retired.- If Captain Jouett ever
goes to Pittsburgh ho will run more risk
of capture and forcible detention, for a
few days at least, than he has from any
source since the war closed.
The United States steamer Michigan,
mentioned in the foregoing article, was
`constructeil in this city twenty-six years
ago, and two years afterward was taken
to Erie via the Erie Canal and launched.
Among the number compoeing the pleas
ant party who met on the Michigan were
George Neeld, who assisted in preparing
and furnished the first stick of timber
used in the steamer, James Reese, who'
drove the first rivet in her boilers, and
W. A. Tomlinson, who built the engines
first used upon her,
Before leaving the city a grand banquet
was given by mt. Olivet Commandary to
the Sir Knights. •
The Pittsburgh Commandary, which
Vas complimented by the Grand Com-
mitndary, was occompanled by the Great
Western band.
When they took their departure yea
terday they were acc.ompanied to the
depot by Mayor , Noble, several of the
councilmen and a delegation of ladles.
A NeW Street Sweeping Machine.
We learn from the Chicago papers that
James McDonald has invented and has
now in operation in that city a 'street
sweeping machine, by which the dirt,
mud and dust is removed from theatreet
and placed in a cart.or a common wagon,
to which the machine may be attached.
It is said to be much lighter and per
tbrrns its work much better than any
other machine that has been contracted
for the purpose. The agent, Mr, E, A.
Chandler, is now in , Baltimore, where
they propose to adopt the machine. We
hope he will bring his machine to this
city and give our city fathers' an exhibi
tion of its workings, and if satisfactory
that they will adopt it, as we need some
thing of the sort very much.

Merit.
Prudential .considerations , are para
mount In business as in everything else.
We all feel that to obtain pre-eminence
in any station or position of life, success,
unequivocal success, must be insured—
such as Maros after counteracting the
sternest opposition and all the stratagems
of rivalry, only to make the merits of the
enterprise appear the brighter. For true
merit will eventually make Itself known.
Hence prudence should urge the fullest
recognition of such enterprises in which
true merit, attested by success, has been
exhibited. In the science and practice
of dentistry, Dr. Scott, whose dental lab
oratory our readers know is located at
No. 278 Penn street. has evinced the most
thorough proficiency. His study has
long been the resort of the afflicted, and
his practice is steadily increasing—the
result of his long and intelligent labors.
To enumerate the many reasons that
should - induce those wbo are suffering
from toothache or desire the insertion of
artificial teeth, to visit Dr. Scott's labo
ratory, would be a repetition of the gen
eral opinion, and it is only necessary to
add that he a at once reliable, avoids
unnecessary delays, Is perfect master of
the art, performs an operation without
pain, and withal is moderate In the mat
ter of fees. His office Is, as stated, at
No. 278 Penn street.
A Beautiful Present
A very pleasant affair took place in
Curry Institute yesterday morning. The
members of one of Prof. Cur ry's classes,
consisting of about one hundred stu
dents, made him the recipient of a splen
did silver tea set, from the celebrated
firm of John Stevenson', Sons & Co.,
Market street, Pittsburigh.
The donors had carefully concealed the
matter until 10 o'clock, A. 11 when the
set arrived, -and was immediately pre
sented by Miss Mary F. Matchett, of Al
legheny City, in a neat little speech, to
which Mr. Curry responded, and in ap
propriate terms expressed his high ap
preciation of the gig, and of the gener
ous motives which prompted it. The
whole affair passed off Very pleasantly,

A few years a owhen civil war con

vulsed our land dAwe seemed almost
lon the verge of uln; there Providence
gave us a Grant, 16 brought, order out
of confusion an established peace—in
which all hearts rejoice. And now Bos
ton Is all agog ibver a national musical
festival, the "Peace Jubilee." Now,
reader, if you bade been , convulsed with
racking toothache, if frowns ihave sap

his new laughing gas will bring rest to

again those days of blessings. Therefore,
"Let us have Peace." ‘...
Triumph Over Opposition.
It cannot be disputed that ;success is
the real—the only—test of merit; The
very nature of causes and results will
I
clearly explain how any enterprise, sub
jected to a thorough test of its ',qualities.
and which hasou t l i vedcompetition,
1 I
prejudice, and the most strenuous oppo
sition, only to acluire's settled and more
extended - popularity,' Is the one which
centres true merit. For this reason the
Singer Sewing Machine is deClared to
enjoy an unrivalled reputatiOn. The 1
judgment of the best mechanics has pro
nounced its machinery perfect4-because
the simplest. Every one kno's that
i
complication is ruinous o perfection,
t
and simplicity is its chief eature. The
ladies invariably prefer t, after once
witnessing its easy, yet ost 'effective
operation, no matter how enthusias
tically they may have previously advo
cated other machines. We have only to
add that if our readers wish - to be con
vinced of the truth of these statements,
they have only to visit the salesrooms of
Messrs. Straw dc Morton; at the corner of
Sixth (late St. Clair) and Penn! streets,
and see the noiseless and perfecti manner
in which the "Singer" operates. Our
word for it they will peter it to all othertt

MT= OF JULY.
How and When the Gernians Propose to
Celebrate lt—lileettngi at Turners ,
Hall—The Programme{ and Route of
Procession. -
It has been and still the custom
of our native citizens, In the celebration
of our national anniversary, the Fourth
of July, when it occurs on Sunday, as it
does this year, to observe - the day follow.
Ing or the preceding day; as might be
decided upon In different localities, and
in this city, we believe, it !has been cus
tomary to hold the festivities on Monday
the Fifth. , This custom, its seems, is not
entirely satisfactory to many of our Ger
man citizens, and they propose to make
an Innovation on the rule this year and
observe Sunday. as we stated yesterday
morning..
A meeting was held, relative to the
'natter, at turn is Hall last eventng, at
which over forty different German benev
olent and other societies were represent
ed, The meeting was organized by call
ing Mr. C. F. Bowers to theiChaii.
Mr. Bowers on taking the;Ohair stated
the object of the meetlng, and said that
while intending to depart from the usual
*tom of the citizens in the matter, as
to the day to be observed, it was not thd
intention to indulge in any sport
or
anmsement, or do anything not appro
priate to the day or occasion.
After considerable discusaion a Com
mittee was appointed to make arrange
ments for the celebration,ind L atter a
brief absence they reported the following
programme of exercises: '!
The several societies and (; individuals
who contemplate taking par in the cele
bration will meet at Turner'S Hall, Sun
day, at one o'clock p. at., when they will
form in procession on Sixth avenue and
march from thereto Allegheny Diamond,
when the .Declaration of Independence
will be read in English and German,
after which there will he brief orations in
both languages. The procession will re
form and return to Turner's Hall, where
it is expected to arrive at ten o'clock P. M.
The report' was received and adopted.
It is the desire of those having the mat
ter iu charge that the celebration shall be
quiet and orderly, and the oNeot in hav
ing the ceremonies over at so early an
hour is to prevent confusion that might
Otherwise ensue. ' '
