The invt•stigations made thus far are .only -par tial, but many of them prove the existence of abuses, which, for the credit of our race and country. cannot be too soon reformed. In Pennsylvania, the Committee selected by the Governor to inquire into the condition of our jails and pour houses, make a report that, is well calculated to startle every man and woman of humane instincts. Not only are paupers sold to the highest bidder in *mitt counties, after the fashion known to prevail in New England, but Instances of shocking inhumanity are by no means rare. in the insane department of the Adams county pool" •house there are three men and one woman who have been confined to the floor with heavy chains, worn bright by constant use for twenty-five years and over; and, in the same institution,` there are two men chained to fifty-six pound weights, which they are obliged to drag after them where ever they monve. At the Franklin county nbAshonse one patient, over eighty years of age, has been chained for twenty'years, and two others arc occasionally confined. Five counties are mined in which cells are in the basement, dark, damp, filthy and ill ventila ted, no ground attached, no employment giv en, no instruction, no religious services on any day 'of the week, and gambling and drinking to excess.: No language is too severe in condemnation of practices so disgraceful to Christian civilization. TUE several companies owning the Warren 6k, Franklin It. R., the Oil Creek road and the Farmers' road, hive - been consolidated, Under the title of "The Oil Creek and Allegheny River Railway Company," with a share capital of $4,239,000. - They have purchased the Reno road, and intend, it is said, to take up its track and use the rails to lay dowu the the wide guage from Petroleum Centre to Oil City, and the narrow guage from Oil City to Franklin, thus making both guages continuous and unbroken, between Corry and Franklin. The merger stipulates that one common charge shall be imposed on oil, irrespective .of distance, carried over the consolidated line; minimuml specified fifty cents per barrel Hence, according to our information, the charge will be the same on a barrel of oil whether it be carried from Petroleum Center to Oil City, 8 miles, des tined down the Allegheny valley, or from Petroleum Centre to Corry 38 miles, destined for the Erie or Lake Shoreroads, or from 'Petroleum Centre via Oil City to Irvineton, 5 . 9 miles, destinOd for the Philidelphia& Erie railroad.

TUE City Councils ofTitusville have passed a resolution favoring the creation of u new county, with that plitee as the- shire town, and agree to- croct all the necessary build ings free of expettge to the peophr in the towuships - propoqed to included. From the thspo,ition of the Legislature at present, it does pot look much as if they would be af forded the opportunity. A cownEu man has undertaken the diffi cult task of walking one hundied miles in the same number of.hours, without sleep or rest, on a bet of 000. The experiment com menced in Empire Hall on Tuesday evening at 6, and, if successful, will conclude on Sat urday at 10 o'clock. Spectators. are admit ted at twenty-five cents each; but the enter-, tainment does not appear to attract many. Tin: Franklin Spectator predicts that Sen ator Lowry 's scheme to-create a new county out of portions of Crawford. Venango, For est and Warren, will fail to become a law. The Warren, Forest and Venango county papers oppose. it, while those of Crawford arc mostly, if not all, favorable. A Commit tee of citizens fromthe localities most inter ested have gone on to Harrisburg, to work for the bill. febl3 tf. Mmits. JAMES EVANS and C. •w. Brown have entered Into partnership, under the firm name of Evans. & Brown, to carry on the Vrocery business at 1325 1 :Peach street (near the L'nion depot.) They will keep on hand a general assortment of Gnueries. Pro visions, Fruits ; Vegetables. &e., whicli they offer to sell at the -lowest cash price. The iTtembers.of the firm:ate both younVand en terprising men, whom we recommend to the iavor of the public, \VESDELL PHILLIPS' lecture- on " Daniel O'Conuelr' will be given in Farrar Hall to morrow IFridayl evening, the 14th inst. We have sonic curiosity to see whether our Rad ical citizens will invite him to deliver a po iitical speech, at the conclusion of his regular lecture. as they did dining his visit in Janu ary. In case they fait to do so, it is pmposed that the Denuferatic portion of the audience ;n tke amends by asking him to explain• his reasons for believing that Gen. Grant has fallen into intemperate habits. Os Tuesday night, two sleigh loads of young people from Harbor Creek were out riding, when a singular accident 'occurred. While going down hilt a horse belonging to the rear sleigh got loose, and raninUt the one ahead, jumping among its passengers. - One lady had her limb broken, and others had their faces and bodies injured. The horse, in its efforts to extricate -himself, fell out of the side of the sleigh, taking three- ladies along, and rolled completely over them, fastening them in the snow until he could be lifted off. TIIE Girard Spectator says "a Leap Year party, in which the ladies, taking advantage Of the occasion, did all the honors, was given at Sherman's Hotel, in Albion last Friday. The fair projectors of the affair, went after 'heir chosen partners of the sterner sex, es sorted them to the hotel, invited them to dance, showed them down - to supper, did the treating, and took them home, settled all the bills, and; in short, performed all the cash duties and attentions, it is three years out of four, man's priviligc to assume. • The ladies were a complete sucee-A nu this occasion, 'and the boys hugely egjoved the novelty of such cheap fun." THE Garotte, a few weeks since, contained a long sensation report, implicating lion. Wm. A. Wallace and Rev. Father Tracy in some fraudulent election transactions in Clearfield County. The last Clearfield Re publican contains an editorial pronouncing the charges against Messrs. Wallace and Tra cy false from beginning to end. and says that they are based upon the testimony of one °lies rts,, a renegade Irishman, who has made three narrow escapes from , being sent to the Penitentiary, and whose "utter depravity and want of character is so well known" in that community "that it seems scarcely worth while to comment:upon it." It will require the oaths of a great many creatures like this to break down the reputations of Hon. Wm. A.. Wallace and Father Tracy among those who know them. - Tae daily Republicridof Monday contained Mr. Orlffey's announcement of the sale of that ,establishment to Messrs. A. H. Caughey; E. W. Curriden and H. Butterfield, who will continue its management under the firm name of Caughey, Curriden &Butter field. The new proprietors have alsopnr ehaied the jobbing otlice of Messrs. Foulke 4; Mellen, and intend making an active effort to build up that branch of the business. We are free to say that we have little faith in the success of a second daily in Erie, for the next five years. The gentlemen named seem to be of.a different npin ion;rtnil if their judgment proves better than ours we shall gladly give them the credit of it. The members of the firm are all gentlemen whom we hold in the highest .esteem, and for the sake of their purses, w'eltope they may meet with an en couragement equal to their fondest anticipa tions. Tire Elk Advocate learns that the nettle of Hon. Henry Souther, of that county, will be presented for the next Radical Congres sional nomination in this district. It is given out that Mr. Scofield will not a candidate for renomination, but if the circumstances should look favorable, we suspect that he will not refuse to try his chances. Prom Clearfield, it is understood, that H. Bucher Swoope and John Patton will be urged by their friends, with the prospects most favor able for the latter. In this county the Candi dates most prominently named are lion. John H. Walker, ez-Rev. J. 11. Witallon and Mayor Noble. Whallon is working like a hero, and feels confident of success. The nomination belongs, as a matter of justice, to Mr. Walker, and if the Radical County Con vention refuses him its endorsement, he will pare abundant reason to complain of the in gratitude of a party to the interests of which he has devoted the best years of his life. A ate rtscf of gentlemen favorable to the Temperance cause was held in, the First Presbyterian church, last week, to organize an open society. Thifollowing officers were elected: M. W. Caughey Presid ent; J. A. French; W. F. J. Liddell, W. S. Cleveland, M. J. Cronin and J. Towner, Vice Presidents; Henry Brown Secretary, and Daniel Weeks Treasurer. Executitre . Committee--Capt. L. J. Louch, Asa 3L Tomb, Same) Merritt, Daniel Weeks, W. B. Davenport, Daniel Came, Charles Hathaway, Albert Ross, Hen ry Brown, Wm. C. Retcher, Jr., Samuel Loueh and Mathew Griffin. The title of "Eck Vat= Temperance Society" was adopted ind•the following pledge agreed upon : • • "We will not make, buy, sell or use as, a beverage, any_sArtmous or malt liquors, wine or cider, or antrother alcoholic bever age Whetkir enumerated or not, but will use all honorable means to prevent their mann fitcture or use, or the traffic therein, and this pledge we will keep and maintain inviolate, till.the end of life." TaENits: Tetli:Zilfuute ad rises; the watt lisbnient of Republican , campaign clubs in every towusbip and ward "where a llfrone does not now exist," and Suggests as their "Brat, work," and'tut that of "every active, earnest Republican. to see that at' least one Rephblickn jourrud is taken by- every , voter who canbeleduced to read it There are this dar,- . # - adds, "ottit' hundredAltousand legal voters in our State not inviheibly op posed to the RepnbliCan faith, who take and habitually read no, paper whatever.

In every case, the Very Journal most acceptable to the voter, and most calculated to enlighten him, should be brought to his netice, and, if possible, plaeedin his hands." The Democrats of Pennsylvania can take a hint from these sug gestions as to- the probable Mode that will be. adopted ifthe Republicans for ctirrying on the campaign. If they ate wise, they will learn a lesson from theiropponents, and pre pare in time to meet them With weapons as effective as their own.'

Csrox Mims, Feb. 3,1868. En. REPEBLICAN :—Sir, I see in your publi cation of the Ist inst., an exaggerated ac count of my marriage, whiCh I beg lead to correct. I respectftilly ask that •Mr:-Nimrod will, in tbT future, better inform himself in the whereabouts 'of those of whom he knows nothing. I want it distinctly un derstood that I did not advertise for corres pondents, either tar mental improvement or matrimony. I think myself above such con duct. Very true, I never saw the gentleman I married, until a very few days before I married him, yet, this is no reason that he shOuld have seen my name in the papers. We became acquainted through a lady in New York, and I have reasons to believe that no one is more tranquil or hippy than myself. Mr. Editor, I hunibly ask in justice to my husband and myself that you give this -pia:le In your columns, and obi*, J. E. LILLIE. THE fickleness of men's fortunes receives a fresh illustration in. the -following from' a Buffalo paper : "A. day or two since an tild gentleman, Mr. Alanson Palmer, now in liis dbtage, but at one time one of the wealthiest men in Buffa lo, who used to drive through our streets with his coach anti four, and who dispensed charity with a liberal hand and entertained his friends with princely hospitality, was be fore the police court, poor, thinly clad, and emaciated in person, charged with petit lar ceny in stealing a shirt from - a young man. Justice.Vancierptittl, not considering the cir cumstance 4 under which Ti timer got posses shin of the shirt could be legally constructed into a larcimv, and considering the 7 mental and bodily condition of the old man, dis misst;tl the case. The next day this aged in in—with not one of those who, in his day of prosperity, partook of his hospitality or were fed by his bounty, to pity his condition or administer to his sufferings—was sent to the poor house as a vagrant bar four months." Tun Dispatch states a trueism which can not be denied when it alleges that "there is not that degree of pride and care existing in our community which - Is necessary for per fect co-operation and Oneral prosperity." We regret to' make the confession, but it must be evident to every one that the great drawback of our city is the 'lack of hearty zeal and unity of purpose which prevails, among all classes, with comparatiiely few exceptions. To this deficiency may be at tributed the failure of a number of valuable enterpriscs'which would have added vastly to the prosperity of the city. If we eves ex pect Erie to attain the Importance her natu ral advantages entitle her to, we must strive to cultivate a feeling of more harmony in the community, and a disposition to labor for the common interest. • Tar. rights which accrue to the ladies by the return of Leap Year, it appears, are not the result of custom alone, but are founded on the solid rock :of a positive statute. The following enactment, passed by onr Anglo-Saxon forefathers, has never been re pealed, and possesses as binding force as if it bad been adopted the present year. We advise all bachelors, young and old, to read it carefully, and take care that they do not subject themselves to its penalties : "When retnrneth ye Bissextile year then scithil ye laydes in all conntryes and landes be ye onlie gallanties; and they may make love unto ye menne, by !pokes or wordes or alle menes that doe seem proper to them, oldie they khan use no force but onlie take them husbands fairlie. And no manne schall put by et reject cone fair Offer nor cause too much suing except he lo4e benefit of clergy therefor." TIM Elk Advocate, referring to iicntield's resolution of inquiry into .the views of Jus tice Field, makes the following pertinent suggestions: • • Now, Mr. Scofield, if you really wish to do some good for the country, and more es pecially for a part of your immediate cop; stituency, we would advise you to offer a resolution of inquiry to find out why the . business affairs of the whole country remain in such an unsettled state? .Why, that here in our own little county, of Elk, where last year there were exported Sixty million feet of lumber to the eastern and western mar kets, there will not he more than one-sirth of that amount exported during the present year? These are infinitely graver question* than whether some of the branches of the government disagreetiitli you on an abstract question. Come, Mr. Scofield, spare a few days from your attention hi .Sambo, and de vote them to the benefit of your people." SOME poor fellow, who, like many more, does not possess the wherewithal to in clu/ge in the luxury of a sleigh-ride, thus rents his spite through the medium of a Detroit cotemporary "0 ! the snow, the snow, the beautiful snow!

Grant for the Presidency, whatever may be the claims of their organs. While the politicians are generally for him, the mass of thinking men fail to see in the General the man for the times, and prefer some more outspoken candidate. We have' heard et not less thatiia dozen zealous members of the party in this city who declare that they do not wish to see Grant nominated, and several of them go to the extent of asserting that they will not vote for him. .

We do pot believe he is the kind of man represented above, but if he is, the blame for 'placing hint upon the Supreme Court falls entirely upon Mr. Lincoln: We respectfully suggest'to the - Dispatch that if it is determined to cast odium upon the "mar tyr's" memory, the more manly way would be to attack him in a direct form, and not take the round-about course of assailing his . - favorite appiiintees.. hiye received the first copy- of the foal:finer:ooY Gazette, Issued from the office of the old Democratic organ of Burks county. It is a seven column paper, neatly printed, containing a large amount of reading matter and edited with.a great deal of ability.

Ws hope to ace a mu house greet the "Old Folkcs of Titusville;" at their concert this (Thursday) evening, in Farrar Hall. The troupe are pronounced by all.who heard them on their last visit, equal to the best that have visited our city, and the circumstances under which they repeat their entertainment (having been invited by a committee.of citi zens) renders it desirable that they should meet with a more than usually favorable re ception.. • • TYE gross receipts of the entertainment for-the benefit of the Monument :Fund were $6.18.33, and the expenses *216.10, leaving a balance of $442.23. This amount, small as it is, affords the hidies a bssisto start upon, and the Festivals they propose giving in the sum: mer will swell it to a considerable extent. TLEE, comic opera 9f the "Morgramdbruck" was given by the Liedertafels in Farrar Ball, on Monday night, to the unbounded gratifi cation of the large audience assembled. Some of the parts were as well rendered as we have ever seen them by the most celebrated professional perfarmers. , TUE Dispatch claim to be in posession of reliable' information that "a line of from six to eight steamers will be established between Erie, Detroit and (Thiesgo, early in the spring, by the Eric and Northwestern Trans portation Company." The Negroes of the Sticith. . correspondent of the daily Republican, writing from Lexington, Ky., over the signa ture of-"T. R.," gives the following sketch of negm character in that vicinity. As he is in all probability a Radical, we, presume that none will accuse hlnfof producing an exag gerated picture:_ "I strolled into a colored meeting yester- day, (Sunday) held in a large building near the hotel at which I tarry. The building was filled to its utmost capacity,and a darker scene I never beheld. "Lhad often heard of the eccentric charac ter of the negro meetings. South, and I will confese-thatttiriesity wasiny prevailing mo tive in attending. As I entered, the preacher, who had not yet reached the highest pitch of voice, was drawing tears from the eyes of his hearers, by , narrating how the wicked -Jews "pulled de liar" of Jesus in taking him from the judgment hall. A.s the speaker warmed with this subject, the shouting, groaning and Yelling; becamp "temille,'‘,and when hls - velcb finally' reached- the highest pitch, the scene became one which I never shall forget, and can poorly describe. One after another sprang up, writhing and twist hid their bodies min all Made of contortions, some at a single bound throwing themselves over two or three seats, some spinning around like a top, while one girl was in the aisle im itatiag With exact predsion, though uncon sciously, the motions of a toy called "Danc ing Jack." Not unfrequently: home would lie down and roll the entire length 'of the aisle. One stalwart negro was so violent in his demonstrations that fite or six men were compelled to lay him upon a bench and hold him down. ."As the speaker lowered his voice, the au dience became more quiet till order again prevailed. These physical exhibitions I am compelled to believe are entirely involunta ry, and result from their excitable nature: It is not what the preacher says in many in stances,,but the way he says it, that causes this wild excitement. A more empty, sense less, unmeaning harangue, I never heard than the mitlister'i sermon. - I like Aunt Judy's idea of "hollerin7 in meeting ; she says : "'Taint de rate grace, honey • taint de sure glory. You holler too loud. When you gets de dove in yOur heart and de Lamb in lour' bosom, youil feel as of you was in dat stable at Bothfcm, and de blessed Virgin had lent you de sleepin' baby to h01,1.' " . - Ludicrous as this skOtch appears, we be lieve it to be strictly true ; and, firtilcrmore, that the negroes describei are a fair sample of ninety-nine hundredths of their,race in the South. it Is in the hands of such a class of. voters as these that the Radicals intend com mitting the destinies:of that section, and by that means secure the balance of power in the Union for years to come. We put it to Ahe common sense of Any intelligent person, whether the South is not justified in endeav oring to thwart the scheme, and 'whether the interests of the whore country do not demand its indignant repudiation.
