Interesting Reminiseenses In the third volume of the New Ameri can cyclopedia, recently issued from the press of the Messrs. Appleton, we find the follow• ing brief sketch of an eminent Pennsylvani an of the revolutionary era "BLAINE EPHRAIM, an officer in the rovo. lationary war, belonging to the Pennsylvania line, died at Carlisle, Pa„ 1808. He entered the artoy as a Colonel, at the commencement of the :Jar and was subsequently made Commissiary General. His services were gallant and patri otic. He was'rrith Washington, in many of the most trying beems of the revolution, and enjoy Ed the confidence of his to the fullest ex tent. During the d-trk_winter 'at Valley:Forge, the preservation of the American army from starvation were in a groat degree owing to the exertions and sacrifices of Col. Blaine." It would he impossible to do justice within a single paragraph, to the memory and ser vices of so gallant a soldier, so valuable an officer and worthy a man, as Col. Ephraim Blaine. Living on his princely estate of " Middlesex," in the county of Cumberland, at the time of the revolution was inaugura ted, he at once offered his personal services and his large means, to the patriot cause.— Ile was forthwith commissioned by the con. tinental Congress as a Colonel, was attached to the Pennsylvania line of troops, and did not " ground arms " until the contest was over and . the victory won. It happened from the outset of his service, he was thrown mach in contact with General Washington, and the re tult was a - warm friendship between the two, which manifested itself in a cordial corres pondence through a period of more than fif teen years—many of Washington's letters bo• ing still in the possession of Col. Blaine's de scendants. Owing to his own marked and meritorious services, both in " carap and field," and aided perhaps by the personal friendship of Wash ington, Col. Blaine was appointed to the very important post of Commissary General of the Northern Department," in the year 1778, about the time that the distinguished Gen. Wads worth was appointed to a similar rank in the Southern department. In this large and most reponsible sphere of duty, Col. Blaine, won imperishable laurels. The district over which he was made " General of Commissar iat " extended from the Maryland line north ward, including Pennsylvania, NeaVersey, New - Voila and New England, and it was to hie great energy, and often times the means which he had the individual and personal in fluence to command, that the " Patriot army" was kept from actual want and starvation.— The large operations for army " supplies" which Col. Blaine negotiated may be inferred from the fact that at one time, (Jan. 1780) the Supreme Executive Council of Peliseylva nia,drew a single warrant in favor o one milliou of dollars to reimburse him foFad vances which his own exertions and his own means had provided : and at another time a warrant for sccen hundred and fifty thousand was credited to him by the same authority in paymeut of similar. negotiations. During the "dark winter " at Valley Forge, the most critical and trying period perhaps in the whole seven years struggle, the Americarisr my was left, at one time, almost entirely de pendent on Col. Blaine's efforts, and the faith ful and heroic manner in which he discharged his duties at that period was always spoken of in terms of the highest praise by Wash ington. Colonelß'aine was with Washington in sev eral of the most critical epochs in the long straggle for our liberties, and was among the most ''tried, true and trusted," to the last. At the close of the Revolution he retired to his estates at Middlesex," which bad become greatly impaired by his long absence, though they were still magnificent in their extent and resources. Here he resided for more than a quarter of a century after the war, in true manorial dignity and hospitality, entertain" ing his numerous visiters in a style of liberal ity suited to his social rank and public posi- tion and admirably illustrating the character of the Pennsylvania gentleman of the " olden time." It was at his house that President Washington and suite were entertained when they journeyed to the interior of the State on that eventful expedition. called out by the Whisky Insurrection of the Western coun ties in 179-1. During Washington's Presiden cy, Colonel Blaine spent many of his winters in Philadelphia, forming one member of that " Republican Court" which surrounded and gave eclat and dignity to the social rule of our first and great chief magistrate. Colonel Blaine's son, James Blaine, went abroad in 1791 as an-attache to one of the American em bassies, and was made a few years after, the bearer to this country of the celebrated "Jay's Treaty," which was the cause of such an angry congressional controversy immediately after its reception, and which resulted in the permanent enstrangement from Washington ef some who had been previously reckoned as among his devoted political friends. James Biaine, at the time of his return from Europe was considered to be among the most accom• plished and finest looking gentleman in Phila. delphia—then the centre of fashion, elegance, and learning on this continent. His reputas tion as a model gentleman was honorably sue mined throughout life, He died a few years since in Washington county, Pennsylvania, whither he removed after the death of his father. It may be - mentioned here that Col onel Blaine was one of the original members of the Pennsylvania Society of the " Cincin nati." The domestic and family history of Col. Blaine were quite as remarkable and inter' eating as his public career was honorable and patriotic. Shortly after the war was over he lost his first wife, who was a Miss Galbraith, of a well known Scotch family. He passed some years as a widower, and his second mar riage was somewhat singular and romantic, to say the least. In the town of Carlisle, near which his estate of " Middlesex" lay, one Judge Duncan was among the most prom inent citizens—a man of social rank and high spirit, and some-years the junior of Col. Blaine. A pereonal difficulty happened be tween Judge Duncan and a lawyer of the Cuinberland county bar, named Lamberton, and the result was that a challenge passed and was accepted. The second of Judge Duncan was James Blaine, the son of Col. Blaine, already alluded to. The issue of the duel was the instant death of Judge Duncan, shot with a rifle ball directly in the fore head. And now for the singular sequel. A fewjeers elapsed and Col. Blaine married Judeg Duncan's widow—the widow of the man for whom his son had acted second in the duel which proved fatal to him. This lady survived Col. Blaine a long number of years, and after his death resided in Philadelphia.— Her residence was one of the elegant man sions on Walnut street, west of Twelfth, and f=ri she lived in aistyle of true elegance and distinction until she attained the ripe o ' c of ninety. She died as lately as 1850, [l,l is buried in a family lot at Laurel The descendants and collateral connections of Col. Blaine in Pennsylvania, and in many other parts of the Union, aro quite numerous; In this State, the family is intimately inter woven with the Lyons, the Russells, the Ew ings, the Alexanders, the Andersons, the Reeds, the Walkers, the Gillespies, and nu merous ether branches of the old - Pennsylva • nia'stock, The son of Col. Blaine's second wife, Dr. Stephen Duncan, of Natchez, Miss„ is widely known as one of the wealthiest _ plabters of the South, his estate being reek• oned:by.;millions, while ho was otherwise known as the most high-minded, philanthropic and, Ohnitian of men. Robert J. Walker, late Governorof Kani3as,and so distinguished as a Democratic statesman, belongs to the same stook, being a nephew,. we believe, of Col. Blame's wife. Hon. Samuel Auesell,lat e Representative in Congress from the Bedford district, in this State, and Hon, A. I'R-tie., sell, late Secretary of State, are grandkneph ewe of Col. Blaine. Hon. John H. Ewing, former Representative in Congress frOm the Washington district, married agrand daught er of Col. Blaine ; and Robert C. Walker, : Esq. ' well known in our State, and now coo, nected with the Agricultural bureau, at Wash ington, is connected by a similar tie. A branch of the family is to be found in South Carolina, intermarried with the Wheatons, of that State; another branch is settled in New Jersey; another in Missouri; another in lowa ; and still another . in Arkansas; while one lineal descendant, a grand-son of Ca. Blaine, has wandered off northward to New England. We allude to James G. Blaine, Esq., formerly a resident of this city, and d suc cessful contributor to the Whig press, but who now resides in Maine,and edits one of the leading Republican papers of that State.— The male members of the blood, leaving the family name, are scarce. At one time, since the death of Col. Blaine, be had five name sakes among his relatives, but not one of them now survives. The name itself, there , . fore, belongs to comparatively few, while the blood flows in the veins of a very large num ber. It is interesting thus to trace out the ties of consanguinity, which bind the present gener ation to tho worthy and good men of the past. We have no sympathy with that miserable and sickly feeling which induces a man to live on the reputation of his ancestry, and we have Just as little with that affected contempt for a " goodly family stock" which certain persons are in the habit of parading. The true feeling and true ambition should be to cherish a worthy pride in one's honorable an cestry by emulating their worthy deeds. We h3lieve, at all events, in keeping the patriotic deeds of our Revolutionary heroes fresh in the remembaance of posterity, and we have therefore thought that nothing would prove more acceptable to Pennsylvania readers than this brief sketch of Colonel Ephraim Blaine, of Middlesex. LOCAL AFFAIRS. The Weather.—The following is the range of the thermometer and barometer, as kept by George E. Shaw, optician, Fifth street, on Wectrie.,day : THERMOMETER. 9 A. M 12 M... Barometer 29 1.10 Police lieme.—Emily Wray was arrested by the Mayor's police for striking a young woman named M'Clelland with a pair of knucklers, in the Sixth Ward. She was sent up for ten days. J. C. Reese charged J. B. M'Laughlin with fraud in procuring credit for fifty dollars' worth of fish on the pretence that he owned property. M'Laughlin was ..rrested, and the case was settled by some of his friends paying for the fish. John Stancliffo, who was arrested for insulting some ladies on Wood street on Thursday evening, was fined two dollars, which he paid and went away resolved to let crinoline alone in future. Thomas Davis was committed by Alderman Wil son on two charges of assault cud battery—one pre ferred by L. Seaton, and one Ly J. Book. Alderman Rogers committed two vagrants to prison ler thirty days each. The same magistrate sent two lads to the House of Refuge upon complaint of their parents, who found them inewrigible. City Ta.rea.—We are informed that the taxes due the city aro coming into the treasury very slowly at the present time. It seems as though the tax payers of this city required some sort of compulsion to make theta pay their taxes, for under the voluntary system they move but slowly. The amount of de duction grows less by one per cent. every mouth. Perhaps when the Ist of December arrives, and five per cent. comes to be added to the amount, the tax payers will conclude that it is best to pay their dues. The,lar, under the now system, the payments have boon less prompt than was expected. The Cri,ket Match playod yesterday twinned in he defeat of the Union Club, of Allegheny.

The following letter in4.ioates the opinion of a well known resident of our city of the qualifications of the principal of this institu tion : "I think your Book-keeping nntains . a great deal of useful and interesting matt: r, particularly on pages 45 to 47, 144, and 171 to 179, and 188 to 192. It is evident that you have brought to the study of Book keeping a clear head, whioh of course has lost none of that clearness by Lag cultivation of an accurate science. It is impossible for any one to make the subject of aocounts more easy of comprehension to the young beginner; and what is often still more difficult to do, you have made it so the old learner."
