S. Grant, the hero of the war, arrived in Pittsburgh, from the West, last Monday evening, cn route for Washington, and was honored with nu artillery salute at the depot. A large number of our citizens had as sembled at thy depot, many of whom shook him cordiellyby the hand, and gave expression to well-timed compliments. The General continued eu his way to Washington, Monday evening. Last Friday, Oen. Brooks requested Mayor Lowiy to cause the drinking 13A100IIS to be closed until the removal to the camps or the field of the many soldiers now thronging our streets. The Mayor declined to accede to this reqUest, on the ground that his police would be able to preserve order. This may possibly be true, but it would certainly be a great kindness to our soldiers .to remove one of the means for squandering their money and debasing 'themselves. The Mayor would have received the thanks of all good citi zens by complying with Gen.

How long are our two cities to be disgraced by reeling and cursing drunkards such as have infested our streets for some time ? Probably after another murder or two, the Mayors of Pittsburgh and Allegheny will see the propriety ot.the request of 'Gen. Brooks, to have the drinking saloons closed.

Her Christian life, though brief, was bright and beautiful. - From the day of her public dedication to God, (Nov. 6, '59,) till the <day of her death, her conversation was as becometh the Gospel. 'lndeed few possess to an equal degree the same pleasing traitsof char acter. She had many adornments, and with them all, the priceless " ornament of a meek and quiet spirit." As she was ardently beloved liy a large circle of friends, , she is greatly missed, and universally lamented. Her death is a sore be reavement, not only to her husband and six dear children, but to . the church, and entire com munity. But God has celled her to her higher hothe, and to her angel boy; and shall we im molsratcly mourn, while they together are sing ing the song of Moses' and the Lamb?

Her,unostentatious hospitality was free,. her manners dignified, and conversation always interesting. Though placed far above want, she was a model of industry and economy. Her remarkable prudenoe enabled her to live in peace with all. She was : one of the earliest members of the Lawrenceville Presbyterian church, and remain ed to the last its firm friend. She was a patient sufferer under a painful disease affecting her eyes. Puring her husband's long confinement, she watched him tenderly and constantly, and yet with wonderful accuracy kept pace in thought and feeling with the great events of the day. Her love for God's house was strong to the end. She spoke of the enjoyment her last com munion afforded, with. great( pleasure. On Tuesclay.morning she arose as usual,.but complained of faintness; her son assisted her to bed;and diipatched a messenger for medical aid. As the physician arrived, she was breathing her last ; calmly closing her own eyes, she bade fare well to earth, and accompanied the messenger of her Lord. She was a loving wife and tender mother, a 'sincere Christian, and a firm friend. 'Her son; daughter, relatives,' and numerous friends, will long Jament their loss. R. LEA.

She im mediately entered, as a pupil, the Washington Female Seminary, and was graduated in 1865 with high-credit. In the following Winter she was awakened to her spiritual interests, during a powerful revival of iryligion in the Presbyteri an church of that place, and passed through an experience which changed the current of her life. She was one of seventy who,. on an ever memorable communion Sabbath in March, 1856, took upon them, the vows of God; in the presence of his people. -The , writer, who was then her pastor and confidential adviser, has a vivid re collection of her struggles—all the more intense because of her intelligence and earnest charao ter—and of the completeness of the•graoious vic tory which brought her, in humble and hearty consecration, to the feet of Teens. Her sprightly Welled., genial disposition, warm affection, res olute purpose and active does were thenceforth an unreserved offering upon the altar, where her peace with God was assured by the blood of atonement.. Always engaging in her manners, popular in society, and remarkable for strong attachnients, a new arid .supreme loveliness was reflected from her whole- character, when grace had sUbdued it to " the meekness and gentleness of Christ." Her marriage, August 30th, 1859, resulted in her transfer to another' State, and into new cir cumstances. The first Winter offer married life was spent in •gichmond—her husband being at that time a member'of the Virginia H ouse of Delegates—where, amidst the worldly attrao- Clone inseparable from' public life at a - Capital, she maintained at once a high social position and the Consistency of a religions life. The fire -of patriotism was stirred in her bosom by the project of secession, even then assuming shape -and form in that proud eentre, in which rebellion has 'since erected ` " the:„thretie 'of iniquity," in order to " frame mischief bylaw." She was in full sympathy with her husband in his efforts to resist the pestilent heresy, and especially when subsequently, as a member of the State Conven tion, at the peril of life, he recorded his vote in opposition to the ordinance whioh carried the " Old Dominion " into the bastard' « Confedera cy." For was her patriotic support less in .his large sharp of the responsible work of organiz ing the new State of West Virginia. At home Mrs. Porter was a general favorite. She was greatly beloved:. throughout the large circle of her husbature 'relatives. Her neigh bors and acquaintances also held her In the high est esteem. She was a warm friend of her pas :tor and of the church, as well as an ardent stip porter of every enterprise for" the Redeemer's glory, and, in turn, wsts the objetit of a large Christian - confidence. With a warmth of heart and vivacity peculiarly her own, she was .wont to welcome .her friends to the hospitalities of her house. Only the desolation which her death has wrought, in the heart of her stricken husband can measure her devotion ai3 , a wife. Nor shall her two - dear little childrew—:one of them an in fant 9f a few weeks—ever adequately learn, from the report of others, what a mother they have lost. After' her symptoms became alarming % there was but little opportunity for religious conversa tion with her. It was necessary to avoid excite nient, and even, then the delirium of fever settled upon, her brain. But returning cobsciousness, at the last, permitted her, as she beheld the grief and anxiety of her friends, to exclaim three times in quick succession, in the spirit of a be liever's triumph—g , I am happy.!' And then, after a last smile and lingering look upon her eider child, she sweetly sank to rest upon the bosom of her Lord, to awake in his likeness and be satisfied. Our hearts • Were glad, and round them danced the lightsome • blood la•healthfirl merriment—when tidings came A child was born ; and tidings came again That she who gave it birth, was sick to death, So swift trod sorrow on the heels of joy,! They gathered round herbed, and bent their knees - - in fervent supplication to the Throne Of mercy, and perfumed their prayers with sighs Sineere, and penitential tears, and looks Of eelf-abasement ; but they sought to stay Au angel on the earth; a spirit ripe . Per heaven; and Ikleroy,- in her love refused ; Most merciful, as oft, when seeming least! Most" gracious when she seemed the most to frown !" - J. L B. JEFFERSON COLLEGE.

The CABINET ORGANS, introduced about a year since, and manufactured- exclusively by MA.Sfill lIA.M.LIN, haveinet 3vith success unprecedented in the history of I.llll9i cal instruments. Supplying a long-felt want, they have been received with the greated favor by the musical profes sion aul the public, leave already been very widely intro duced, and the demand for them is still rapidly increasing, and mu t continue to increase ae their merits become known. They are to private houses, Sunday Schools and smaller churches, all that the larger pipe-organs- are to large churches. In addition to this,they are admirably adapted to the performance of Secular as well as Sacred Music. The CABINE e ORGAN is essentially different from, and a very great improvement upon all instruments of the Melo deon or Harmonium kind. its superior excellence- consists in many important:characteristics, among which arc I. The snore organ-like character of its tone. 2. It has greatly inure power and volume' of tone in: pro portion to its 'cost. . . Blithe employment of a very simple and beautiful in vention. its capacity for expression is made vastly greater. than has ever before been attained in such instruments. This invention is especially valuable, became scarcely any practice is necessary to render it available. Any ordinary performer can master it in an hour or two. 4. It'admits of great rapidity of execution, adapting it to the performance of a greater variety of lively secular music. . i. No . instrument is test liable to get out of order. 6. It will remain in tune ten times as long is a piano forte. -IFir It may be reesonnblji said that if these instruments have the great and obvious superiority thus claimed for them, they must have received very warm recommendations from professional musicians, vibe would naturally be most interested in the introduction of such instruments, and who are the beet judges of their excellence. Such recommenda tions hore already been given to them, to stn extent unpar alleled. Amontr those who have proffered written testimony to their admirable qualities and great desirability, and that they regard them as UNEQUALLED by any other instru ments of their class, are such well known muelcrians as LOWELL MASON, THOMAS HASTINGS- WM.. B. BRAD BURY, GEORGE F. ROOT, hc.; the most distinguished or ganists in the country, as CUTLira, of Trinity church, N. Y.- MORGAN, of Grace church ; ZUNDEL, of Mr. Beecher's church; ' BRAUN.
