The Conductor espe cially desires a full and punctual attendance. Ac tive members, nota THE HIGH SCHOOL Co3ratar.qcvmusx.—Concert Hail was the great centre of attraction to-day for erinolinedom, and. the rush of fair dames to see anademio honors conferred upon the youthful salons of the People's College, was something for midable. The ladies looked beautiful as usual, and those of them who had masculine escorts, seemed proud and happy when their gallants wore the elegant garments made at the Brown Stone Cloth log Hall of Reckhill & Wilson, Nos. 603 and 605 Chesnut street, above Sixth, Philadelphia. BADLY Fftozzx.—Two men, whose names we did not learn, says the Clearfield Republican, left this place on Thursday last about noon to walk to St. Mary's. The day was excessively cold, and after going some distance beyond John Shaw's, Sr., on the old Sinnemahoning road, were obliged to re turn to Mr. Shaw's, who brought them back to the Paradise House, in bawrence township. Their limbs were badly frozen, and they are now lying at Mr. Ogden's in a critical condition. One of them is from Harrisburg, and the other from Philadelphia. DELEGATE ELECTIONS.—The Democratic citizens of the city will meet at their respective places for holding the primary elections, TIM EVENING, February 16th, at 7 o'clock, for the purpose of electing two delegates from each ward, to represent them in the County Convention, on Monday next, the 18th.

Logue was convicted of murder in the first degree, and sentenced to be banged. His case was appealed to the Supreme Court for a now trial, and has not yet been decided. Loox OUT FOR PICKPOCKETS. --We take this early opportunity to call the attention all who intend visiting this city next week, either for the purpose of attending the Democratic State Con vention or the flag raising, to the fact that the Mayor has already been advised of the fact that a large number of expert pickpockets have made their arrangements for a professional visit On these occasions. We want to impress it upon the mind of every one who comes here, that it is not good policy to bring ranch money with them, and least of all, pocket-books filled with valuable papers. But if it is necessary to bring such articles along, no man should venture into a Crowd with ' them ' as the expertness of some of the old city "knuckle' passetb com prehension. At all of our hotels there are safes w here anything valuable may be left. We hope that our friends of the country press throughout the State will call the attention of their readers to this caution. A NEW STEAM ENGINE.—The Providence Press speaks in high terms of a new steam engine, the invention of Stephen Wilson, of Rhode Island, which it describes as follows : "Without describing it accurately, we may say that the engine presents to view an iron box, four feet long, two and a half feet wide, and two and a quarter feet deep, having a furnace near one end. On its top, side by side, appear two cylinders, which contain pistons, con nected with rods and cranks, with a shaft carrying a fly.wheel, and supported at either extremity by an areb, firmly attached to the box. The cylin der, which is directly over the fire, supplies the heated air to the other cylinder, in which is the piston, whose upward movement turns the shaft.— An eccentric works a valve, which admits the air to be heated, and suffers it to escape after it has parted with some of its caloric by its passage through a quantity of thin corrugated iron plates, termed a regenerator, by passing through which the newly-admitted air becomes partially heated before entering the supply cylinder. The cylinder is eighteen inches in diameter, and the length of stroke eight inches. Ordinarily, the shaft makes about one hundred and thirty revolutions per mi nute. A simple apparatus checks or stops the en gine at pleasure, and it is started by giving the wheel a turn with the hand. Less than an hour is occupied in heating up, and the engine will actu ally continue io gpAiesi, with alight load, for half that time, after every vestige of fire is removed ! Any one who can manage an ordinary coal-stove, and oil a grindstone, is competent to be the engi neer. The amount of feel consumed is about the same as is required for a stove, and when it is de aired to warm the room, the , engine does that, and then costs absolutely nothing for fuel. An ex*. sion is an impossibility, not a drop of water being used, and the risk of fire is not increased in the slightest degree. Are we not justified in extolling such a machine 2" Tan Hompons- OF C/VIL WAIL-110190 who are investing in epaulettes and swords, and for the sport they expect from a civil war, or are sparing no pains or effort in getting one up, will find, should their unholy efforts be crowned with success, that civil war abounds more in horrors than in past times, and that blood and misery rather than plea sure and profit are its horrible fruits. Let them pause and calmly reflect upon the miseries in which they are endeavoring to plunge themselves and the thirty.one millions of their countrymen—men, .liomen and children. Did they ever read the his tories of civil wars and note their horrors ? Let them take for instance the Fiona Revolution and ponder its results before they follow in its wake. The following extract will give them a glimpse into our future, should their policy be carried out; As a warning to the American people at this time, they should read the history of the French Revolution, and contemplate its horrible results.— The extent to which blood was shed during its con. Hanel:toe will hardly be credited by the present age, but it is correctly stated that the number of vie- tins reached one million twenty-two thousand, three . hundred and fifty-one. Of this number eighteen thousand six hundred and three were gnillotined by the order of the Revolutionary Tri bunal.; -thirty-two thousand were victims under Carrier at Nantes; thirty-two thousand at Lyons; three thousand four hundred women died of pre mature child-birth; three hundred and forty-eight in child-birth from grief; and there were slain, du. ring the war in La Vendee, nine hundred thousand men, fifteen thousand women, and twenty-two thousand children. In this enumeration are not comprehended the massacre at Versailles, at the Abbey, the Cannes and other prisons, on the 2d of September; the victims shot at Toulon and Mar seilles, or the persons slain in the little town of Bedoin, of which the whole population perished. fi MAN FROZEN TO Dearn.—Joseph R. Brillinger, of Juniata county, was frozen to death on Thurs day afternoon, on the tow-path of the canal, in the narrows, about two miles from Lewistown, under circumstances of an almost unfathomable charac ter. From the testimony elicited at the coroner's investigation, it appears that the deceased had started from Milnintown with a Mr. Rupert, in a wagon, with the intention of seeking employment in Mifflin county. When within three miles from Lewistown, Rupert's hat blew off, and Brillinger alighted from the wagon to recover it, Rupert dri ving on to the residence of Jos. Woods, where he obtained a covering for his head, and then pro ceeded to Lewistown. Subsequently, Brillinger arrived at Woods,' wet and cold, having by some mishap got into the canal, and after drying and warming himself started for Lewistown. An hour or more elapsed, and Mrs. Woods' attention was attracted by the cries of a man for help, and dis covered Brillinger prostrate on the opposite side of the canal; and but a short distance from the house, his clothing wet and frozen to the ground, and he himself barely able to beg for relief. In this con dition, be was reached by Mr. Quay and a son of George W. Hess, who finally succeeded in remo ving him to Woods' house, where he soon breathed his last at about 5 o'clock in the evening. lie was a. robust man of about 28 years of age, and appa rently of foreign birth. In his pockets were found about $9 in money, and papers on good men to about $4O. His remains were interred in the poor house burying ground. METALLIC SAND.-It appears, by an account published in the Australian papers, that a metallic sand of peculiar value is found along the shores of New Plymouth, in Taranaki. This sand has the appearaiee of fine steel filings, and if a magnet be dropped upon it and taken up again, the instru ment is found to be thickly coated with the iron granules. It has been carefully analyzed by En glish metallurgists, and has been pronounced to be the purest ore at present known ; it contains 88,45 of peroxyd of iron, 11.4-2 of end of titanium, with silica, and only twelve of waste, in one hundred parts. Taking the sand as it lies on the beach, and smelting it, the produce is sixty-one percent. of iron of the very finest quality. And again, if this sand be subjected to the cementation process, the remit is a tough, first class steel, which, in its properties, seems to surpass any other description of that metal at present known. The investigations of metallurgical science have found that if titanium is mixed with iron, the character of the steel is materially improved ; but, titanium being a scarce ore, such a mixture is too expensive for ordinary purposes. Here, however, nature supplies all this. The fineness of this beau fill sand is so great that it passes readily through an azure sieve of nearly five thousand holes or in. terstices to the square inch. A series of tests have been made in regard to the temper and other quali ties of the steel produced from this sand, with the best results. Au official experiment is expected to be made at one of the government establish ments shortly. MITCHELL'S New GENERAL ATLAS.—Says the Principal of one of our best seminaries: "I have examined Mitchell's New General Atlas, and find it to be decidedly the beet work of the kind that I have ever seen. As a map view of the world, it seems to leave nothing to be desired. The statis tical tables, and the plans of the principal cities: evidently prepared with much care and accuracy, add greatly to its worth. The enlarged maps of the several States, showing the county boundaries —and, also, of all the countries to which any spe cial interest attaches, add immensely to its value. The typographical execution of the work is beyond all praise, and it is indeed a splendid illustration of the progress of art in that direction. Every teacher should have a copy, for reference, in his school. It should be in every library and reading room—and no family that can afford the expense should be without ii." The right man in the right place—A husband at home in the evening.—Exchange. We find the above floating about loose, and can not trace its paternity, but we'll bet, say—a new bonnet, that it was written by our wife, who never could appreciate the business that kept us out after 10 o'clock. Meeting friends—seeing off acquaint ances in late trains, Bitting up with sick men, at tending political meetings, or late sessions of the "Lodge," are all so many fabrications. She will insist that people are out after no good after the clooklhas struck 11. VISIT OF Ma Pansinntir.—Yesterday, in the Senate, Mr. Finney read a letter from Mr. Lincoln, accepting the invitation to visit Harrisburg. The letter is dated at Springfield, on the Bth, and loft the fixing of the time to future events. The com mittee which visited Pittsburg on Thursday have no doubt completed the arrangements by fixing on the 22d, which thweresident can easily comply with, without interfering with any other arrange ments previously made. The crowd will in all human probability be the largest ever assembled in this city. DEAD MAN FOUND.—Whilst Frederick Erwine and James Robinson were out dnok-hunting, in the neighborhood of Bilverwood's Island, in the river, opposite 'Selinsgrove, a few days ago, they discovered a dead man in the river. They drew him about half-way out of the water and fastened him to a tree, after which they went and gave no tice to the proper authorities of Northumberland county, who took the body to Northumbeslauted interred it. It was identified as the watchman who fell from the railroad bridge at Northumber land, on the evening previous to the last Presiden tial election. VALUE OF THE SOUTH TO THE UNION.—The value of American exports last year was $318,320,610. Of this amount articles grown and manufactured in the North alone amounted to $5,081,431; artioles common to both North and South, such as grain, sugar, /so., amounted $96,828,299; while articles grown in the South, and totally unknown as North ern prednete, amounted to $214,322,880! Of the articles which are set down as common to both sections, it is conceded that at least one-third came from the South ; and assuming this to be correct, we find that last year the South exported products to the vitiate of $278,873,746. In .other wordi, af ter supplying the home market, the North *as only able to sell products worth $37,316,846, while the • South after. supplying the home market was able to sell products worth $278,873,746=0r nearly eight times as much as the North ! These are simple facts, 'easily understood by all except those whose minds are in their dotage, and fully dis pose of the fallacious idea that the South is poverty stricken, SIMST/TIITX Yon RIFIAD CANNONS.-41, method has been invented of dispensing with rifling can nons, and at the same time securing long . range, 4w:l'w:tonics accuracy of flight. The particulars given of this invention are as follows :—First, the breech is bored, say one-eighth of an inch larger than the bore of the gun, the projectile, which is elongated, being constructed to fit the breech. Second, the projectile is coated with a soft metal, with a hole through the centre from end to end. Third, immediately when the projectile enters the gun it meets with a shoulder which takes off a shaving, thus moulding it to the exact size of the gun, thereby precluding all windage. Fourth, on the projectile leaving the gun, the air forces out the "bevel" plug at the back ; the air then, having a free passage through the projectile, prevents the possibility of its diverging either left or right, or turning over; on the contrary, it causes it to-tra vel with astonishing and unerring precielon. The sudden expansion of air at the back considerably assists its onward course. Com. Asums.—Nothing more annoys the denizens of a city than to get rid of the coal ashes accumu lating during the winter. Left upon the aide-walks the duet 4. blown into everybody's eyes by the high wind, or is upset in the streets to add to the mud usually covering them. Nobody seems to regard this refuse as of any utility. If it Wars applied to any useful purpose there would be no difficulty in getting rid of it rapidly. Now it is chiefly used to fill hollows and level lands. Experiment has shown, however, that it may be used with advan tage for garden walks, where gravel is difficult to obtain. As soon as it is wet it forms a hard crust, like a cement, and on clay soils will tend to keep the walks hard and dry. Well mixed with the clay, it serves to render them less stiff and increases the strength and fertility of the soil. We believe it would be found a very valuable garden dressing also, particularly for fruit. Within our knowledge it has been tried for a number of years upon an English goosborry bush, which, from bearing small fruit in alternate years, has become a large and flourishing bush, producing fruit every year in profusion. No other attention has been given to this bush than simply mixing the soil around its root with coal ashes. We have seen it also tried with great advantage to peach trees, the bark of which, just beneath the surface of the earth, had been penetrated by worms. The coal ashes arrested any further injury probably by destroying the worms, and the trees recovered from the partial injury. We have no doubt that there are many uses to which coal ashes may be applied advanta geously.
