Dear Eree5iGn-The Grizzline rain and
warm winds of Friday and Saturday which
succeeded the intensely cold and stormy
weather of the early part of last week. have
lrfs our principal streets bare of snow, and
many of our neghboring grain fields are
entirely bereft of the projecting presence of
the virgin mantle. Yesterday, too, was a
bright. sunny day, and the large congrcgs-
tion of ST. Benedict's took advantage of it
to greet at mass the welcome presence Of the
venerable Abbot Wemar, who was among
us, looking hale and hearty, as we hope he
may continue to be for many long years to
ceme.
Notwithstanding the rapid wasting away
of the drifted snow that impeded travel on
our northern roads they are yet in sad
condition, and give but little promise of inn
proveInent soon. AS a consequence our
embryo city is somewhat dull in a business
point of view, and there is not much of note
transpiring
little incident that occurred here not
long since occaSioned a remark that is so
much like what the amiable Mrs. Partington
would say, that 1 cannot help mentioning
it. A venerable maiden lady, who had a
lew days prior celebrated her 10th birthday,
noticed some boys raising the stars and
stripes, and as the national banner was uu-
furled and its folds caught by the breeze,
little girl exclaimed "See the flag" 90!
yes" said the old lady, land long may it
wag!" The listeners had occasion to imme-
diately turn their faces in another direction,
and the patriotic old lady remained in the
blissful consciousness that she had well ex,
pressed a patriotic and loyal sentiment.
Yours, IAGe.

Pubic MEETING-On Monday evening 2
last meeting of the citizens of the county
was called at the Court House to demonstrate
against the passage of bill now pending in
our State Legislature, limiting the pecuniary
responsibility of railroad mpanies for in
iuries or loss Of life sustained by reason of
accidents or otherwise
The meeting was duly organized by the
appointment Of proper officers. after which
it was ably addressed by Dan1 Mclaughlin,
Esq, who read the bill and explained its
purpose and intent. as interpreted by him.
Hon. John Scott, of Huntingdon, was call>
ed upon, but refused TO address the meeting,
as ne came, he said. merely as citizen, to
listen to what was to be said. The meeting
insisted on the gentleman addressing it, and
in few brief remarks he defended the Pa
Railroad from the charge of being the sole
party interested in the passage Of the bill,
and from the fact that there was nothing to
show on the face of tie bin that it was the
production of the Railroad Company or that
might not be the ''spawn" Of some Insu-
rance Company or Companies. Cyrus Elder,
Esq, was called on and spoke for a few
minutes on the subject of the bill. He did
not approve the Bill, nor did he approve all
the demonstrations heaped upon the Penn'a

CAMBRIAN CoMPLTMENTED. We notice
in the proceedings of the Democratic State
Convention that the name of Hon. P. F.
Collins was introduced as candidate for
Surveyor General, and on the FIRST ballot be
was compllmented with the highest number
OF votes cast-receiving 40 out of % votes,
the balance being given to four other gen.
tlemen Eamed. Mr.. Collins was not an as
pirant for the office, nor was it sought by
his friends to urge him for the position, as
his name was withdrawn after the first bal
lot, but the compliment paid him was none
the less handsome and voluntary on that ac-
count, and we are free to say that it could
lot have been bestowed on a mere honorable
or upright gentleman, nor one more entitled

of this Commonwealth.
