If Johnny's lavish use of money has resulted in uniting two happy hearts, he will be entitled to the everlasting gratitude of the ladies. The weather during the trip was delight— ful, and the lake was comparatively smooth. A number of cases of sea sickness occurred, but they were not of a serious character. i:oing Wait Pincher's Trade's Review, of Philadelphia, having had the copy of that paper sent to the Union " Readin4 Room in this city return ed by the Postmaster, for the reason that it was " not called for," becomes indignant, calls Eric "a Rip Van Winkle locality," and the institution mentioned a "public ball of old fogyism." It is a very great • annoyance, we are aware, for .a publisher 'to have his paper returned, but we respectfully suggest to the editor of the Ideulets that the act of a single individual or association deea not justi fy the hhuse of an entire community. Fur— thermore, it does not round very well for Philadelphia;,notoriously the 'lowest of our large cities, whose capitalists were more than twenty years in securing a railroad to the lakes, and whose merchants have not yet waked up to the importance of securing the tr4le of the northwestern counties, to speak in i. sneering tone of the Rip Vun Winkleism of ether localities. If Erie bad one-third the 'encouragement from the State which Philadel pi4t has received, her population would show as handsome a proportionate increase as say city on the lakes, and without that assistance Ale has done what Philadelphia has never done, doubled her population every ten years for the last forty. When the Press of Phi's : dr , lphia once arouses from its present slum— bering condition, it may discover that it w 11 be of advantage for that pity to endeavor to build up harmonious intercourse with this part of the State, encourage its prosperity, and seek its trade, instead. as now, of letting New York and Boston step in and appropriate the rich profits accruing therefrom. A rri•e. 3 T 1 n 11 to r tn Terrible Disaster on the Lake. --The telegraph on Saturday morning brought intelligence of one cf the most shocking aff firs which has occurred on the lakes for many years. We condense the following ac— count of it from the reports in the daily papers: DETROIT, Friday, Aug. 11 18G5. A collision occurred between the steam boats Pewabic and Meteor, on Lake Huron, at 81 o'clock Wednesday evening, six miles from shore. The Towable was struck on her Tort bow, just aft the pilot house-and sunk in three or four minutes. The boats were run ning at full speed and struck with such ter riblo force as to crush in the entire bow of the Pewabic At the time the accident occurred it was Scarcely dark, and the boats saw each other six miles apart. When approaching they exchanged signals, and the Pewabic bore off to pads. but the Meteor, from sumo unex til t, bard reason, turned in the same direction and struck the Towable. A number of the passengers on board the Pewebio were killed by the ertpihing of her timbers. A few jumped eta bosrci the Meteor before the Pewabic sunk. Lifeboats were immediately lowered from. the Meteor and picked up those who were not carried down with the wreck. One hundred and seventy flve to two hundred passengers were on board of the Pewabic at the time or the disaster. 'Seventy-five of the passengers and twenty-three of the crew were drowned: The Meteor remained- near the scene of the dißititer till morning in the hope of picking up any pereons that might be still floating on pieces of wreck, but none were found. The propeller Mchowk passing down, the survi errs were transferred to her from the Meteor ft nd Liken to Detroit. The Meteor was but slightly it jurecl and continued her trip to Lake Superior. It watz:d appear as if both these vessels were doomed. The destruction of the Pewa. bic was followed by the loss of the Meteor Da Friday morning of last week. She took fire in some manner unknown, and was scuttled and sunk in the harbor of Detroit. The pas seugers lost all their baggage, but fortunately no lives were lost. The Meteor and Pewabic were both owned by the, same parties, J. T. Whiting tv. Co., of Detroit, whose total loss will be in the neighborhood of 5109,000. HO ERIBLE ACCIDENT ON THE 1. & G. W. A iLWAT.— One of the most painful accidents that has ever taken place in this vicinity oc curred upon the Atlantic & Great Western Railway. on Wednesday evening, about two milts east of Jamestown, N. Y. The engine Salamanca exploded, in 'a deep rook cutting, hurling the engineer and fireman (two broth ere, named Henry and Jackson Cookson) fifty feet into the air, ou to the ground at the top of the cut, severely bruising a newsboy, who was on the tender, smashing several cars, and tearing up the track for twenty feet. The bodiei of the engineer and fireman struck the ground with such force that they rebounded into the air. The two men were horribly resided and mangled, and lived only a few hours after the occurrence. Jackson had a wife and three children living ia• Meadville; Henry was unmarried. It is stated that the engine was an old one, which the engineer had pronounced unfit to use ten minutes pre vious to the accident. A MERITED PROMOTION.—We arc much pleased to hear that Goy. Curtin has tendered to Capt W. 0. Colt, of the 83d ri*iment, an appointment as Brevet Colonel, for faithful and courageous conduct. No compliment of the sort has been liven that is better deserved.

In the four years of military life which he has undergone, he never ab seoted himself from his post, except when obliged to by sickness, and whenever a call was made for his services in battle tie was , alrrays on hand. He entered the army as a private,"and has risen step by step by his own unaided energies. There are few officers whose records for efficiency and fidelity excel that of Col. Colt.
