Peas meTrOrr.—Mr. Rich O'Brien, of
this City, was the recipient of a ery elegant
sett of silver, Monday evening. The goods
were of the most modern style f manufac
ture, and the "getting up," engraving etc.,
reflects equal credit on the good taste and
generosity of the donom . Mr. Pete Good-
Nrin made the presentation speech, and the
numerous friends of Mr. O'Brien were not
Enure 'delighted . with Pete's good cheer than
the-happy manner in which the presentation
was mak, and acknowledged .by the recip
ient. ,
The old castoni of making presentsWe
sometimes think "more honored in the breach
than in the observance;' especially by and,
e politicians ; but when business men receive
such tokens J of regard from honored and
honoring_ friends We appreciate both the
keuerositrophe one, and the merit of which
this presentation is but the honest expression
and fair award.
Messrs. Magill, of Erie, had the service
instutfactured to order, and we must pay
'tribute to their skill as manufacttirers, and
the choice goods of which this set is a sam
ple. Appropriate inscriptions and• initials
were engraved in the principal pices compos
ing the sett ; the whole making a family heir
loom of which Mr. O'Brien may justly be
proved.
I'iucas ts '67 arm 'oB.—The New York
Times has been gathering up statistics shim .- -
ing the relative cost of living in 1867 and
18f18. We take afew of its figures, premising
A y
that are New York city prices: In pro
visions pork is dearer this year—s 27 per
barre against $2O 90, and $22 00 against
$lB :1 Lard and cheese are dearer, while
butter i about the same. The best teas are
a trifle higher, 90 cents to $1 63 -this year,
and 90 cents to $l5O last year. Poultry, too,
is somewhat more expensive. But the, great
g4lll appears in the result of-our grand har
vests. ' CA nary flour is $5 65 this year,
against $8 00 last year, and $l4 is quoted for
extra western, against $l5 50 in 1867. Corn,
too, is cheaper-98 cents to $1 13 this year,
and $1 37 to $1 40 in 1867. Oats also are
less-76 cents against Si cents. Potatoes are
considerably chealier—sl 50 to $3 50 against
$4 to $5 25. That impotlant article for all
housekeepers, refined petroleum, is also a
little cheaper. Sugars, Vie?, are Cheaper, and
molasses. Coffee has fallen off three or four
cents a pound.

to the straight forward course of this old and

31.macuLons EstAer..—On Thursday about
12.3f1 p. m., about a mile and a half west of
Warren, two men in a long sled were cross
ing the track of the Philadelphia & Erie
Railroad; one driving and the other holding
the halter of a horse following them, just us
the passenger train bound west, came up.
The engine crashed through the rear end of
the sleigh, throwirgsplinters,borse and man
high in the air. The train was stopped as
quickly as possible and backed to the cross
ing. There lay the horse, stone dead. The
team with the driver, had disappeared,and
after searching for the man who lead the'
horse, he was found, not in the snow, but
upon the platform in front of the engine.
'lle lay perfectly still and at first it was sup
-posed that he was dead, but upon moving
him it was found that with the exception of
a severe shaking and a terrible fright, lie was
unhurt, though so stiff that, he could hardly
walk. The escape frEan a terrible death is
;one of the most remarkable on record.—. Di

Gen. Cole, and an Illinois husband, who dis
covered his "fOrmer friend" breaking a posi

in this county by an irate relative of one more
weak than wise, and "who lovedmorwisely
but too well." Happily the offender has
been left to conscience and the burden of sup
porting an involuntary family. Never again
will he offend. He is, and will remain, "a
sadder, but a wiser man."

WE DESIRE to call the attention of our
readers to the Advertisements of,3fr. J. S.
Carter. Many of the oldest of subscribers
remember Mr. Carter. and his medicine long
before we did, and they need no reecom
mendation from us; to our yomiger friends we
say that we believe Mr. Carter would not put
out a medicine that he was not well assured,
was valuable, and would benefit those who
have ocasion to use them, at least that is our
opinion of the man.
NOTHING has more hindered the growth of
American journalism than its discordancy,
as displayed in jealousy and envy and all
uncharitableness among its various 'mem
bers. In attempting to belittle each 'other,
they have belittled themselves, and weak
ened the whole business. Nothing will tend
more to give newspapers a better character
and a wider power before the public than an
honorable alliance among themselves, and, a
common effort to elevate the self-respect, and
intellectual, moral, and independent stan
dards of the profession. •
Tan running of the Erie city passenger
railway caused a great many to "go to
church" who generally kept house and at
tended "church" at home. The Republican
stated that so many " church-going" people
and folks twsious to ride "to church" were
never seen before ; and judging from these
facts we infer therg must be a " religious re
vival" in progress ih South Eric, and another
in the city. And the curious part of it is,
the "awakened sinners" don't ,appear to
want to attend church at home. Queer isn't
it? A'
"Hayrick Ati axe to grind," is a say_ in g
originating with old Den. Franklin. One
day the Philosopher in embryo was wending
his way to school; when a strange Mali:with
honeyed words asked him to turn the grind.; ,
stone while he sharpened his axe. The boy
did r tiO until he wasweary ; but when he 'bad
gcit through the job, the man, who hitherto
hadimen all sweetness and suavity, instead
of thanking him, roughly called him a little:
rascal, and bade him hasten to school and re
eeive the punishment due for being, late.
Hence the expression, which Implies a mean
fellow. mho wants a service done for him of
which he is unworthy.
