The Express Peace.

A good deal has been said in the papers
during the past year about the War between
the Express Companies. 1t seems that
Peace has been formally declared at length.
We find The following statement of the terms
agreed upon between the contracting par.
ties to the Treaty of Peace in the Auburn
IN. W AdceytiSer:
We understand that tho three old Ex.
pross panies-United States, American
and Adams--have entered into permanent
treaty of arrangements with the new Mer-
chants Union for the mutual conduct of
| their business in all that relates to the tariff
Of rates, adjustment of territory and ex-
| change of packages on routes not now oc-
| cupied in common. The tariff agreed upon
is said to be a romunerative one, but not
dearer to the business people of New York
| and the interior of the country, tban the
scale upon which the Merchants Union
was originally started. There is to be no
consolidation of capitals or of earnings, and
at the same time the treaty is pledged
against all future rivalry or cutting of rates.
This is undoubtedly a truo version of the
arrangement which has been made, aud
about which 80 much speculation has been
indulged in by the press generally. Our
readers will observe that it corresponds
identically, in every essential particular,
with the statement made in this paper sew
eral weeks ago, and reiterated since in CON
tradiction OF the consolidation story.
The statements recently appearing in
some Of the New York papers were errone q.
GUS as to the scope and details of the ar.
rangements. The officers of the Merchants
Union make no secret OF the terms of the
arrangement. They seem to feel very com.
Portable over the result attained. And as
an early friend and stakeholder of the Mer-
chants Union, we confess that we feel an
especial pride in the arrangement as now
perfected. Under it all the lines of all the
other Express Companies are opened to the
receipt of business from the Merchants
Union-thus affordng it facilities for trans.
acting its business over the entire country
The cutting Of rates ceases, and the orig.
iual tariff OF tho Merchants Union is to be
the basis Of general tariff of rates for
transportation. While this will undoubtedly
be satisfactory to the stockholders of the
Merchants Union we sec no reason why it
should not be satisfactory to the business
public generally, who certainly ought not
to object to the stockholders receiving rea.
sOnable dividends on their stock.
Since the war has ceased some non-pay.
ing routes of the several Companies, viii
of course, be abandoned and prices reduced,
thus allowing business to be done with
equal dispatch. But under tho arrange.
ment as perfected the Merchants Union re
tains full control of its lines and routes,
and of the question OF its rates and trans.
portations.
We congratulate the Stockholders Of the
Merchants Union on their having attained.
through the able management Of its officers,
the great result for which the Company
was established. Hereafter, dividends in
stead Of assessments, will be the order Of
the day.

Aaron Burr-uis Death-Bed.

There has been an impression that Aaron
Burr refused to converse upon the subject
of religion during his last illness. But this
is an error The writer has received from
the daughtetSof the late venerable Doctor
Van Pelt, the following account of Burr's
death, related by her father, who visited
him when dying:
Colonel Burr died at the present Port
Richmond Hotel Staten Island, where Dr.
Van Pelt frequently visited him during his
prostrated illness. Tho time spent with
him was chiefly employed in religious con
verSation, concluding with prayer. Asked
as to his views of the Holy Scriptures,
Colonel Burr replied" They were the
most perfect system of truth the world
had ever seen" Two hours before his
death, DR.. Van Pelt informed him that lie
could not survive much longer, when he
replied--"I | am aware of it," DR.. Van Pelt
thus describes his last moments; = with
his usual cordial concurrence and manifest
desire, we kneeled in prayer before the
throne OF Heavenly Grace--imploring Gods
mercy and blessing. lie turned in his bed
and pnt himself in an humble, devotional
posture, and seemed deeply engaged in
the religious service thanking me, as
usual, for tho prayer made for him. Calm
and composed, | recommended him TO the
mercy of God and to the Word of His
Grace, with a last farewell. At about two
o'clock, r. NJ =, without groan or struggle
he breathed his last. His death was easy
and gentle as taper ia it's socket, or a
summuer's wave that dies upon the shore.
Thus died Colonel Aaron Burr.
His last years were spent m comparative
obscurity; a few old friends, never desert.

at the feet. of his reverend fathers ro-
mains. For years not stone marked the
silent spot but a plain white marble mon
unent has been placed there, by the same
kind hands who ministered TO his wants
when in retirement sick and dying.

popular favor, the chief magistraey Of the

Tho dogs of Belgium perform so ifnpors

city, 6oing, in fact, ,tho "beasts of burden "
OF tho common people, that We cannot
omit brie; notice of them. All tho milk
used in Antwerp is brought hither in dog

house until tlleir contents are exhausted I.
then tho milk woman supplies the absence
OF tho weight Of the tactical fluid with her

goes jogging homoward to the country.
These carts are sometimes of very con.

circumstances the motive power is in

four abreast, tugging and pulling at their
great burden, their poor little bodies sway

\ lcaden team was coming in from tho
country to attend the next days market.
when, just as we were passing, a most pit
oous howl broke from one of the dogs,
which was echoed by the others, and all
stood still in the middle of the road, some
crouching on their launches aud some
prostrating themselves on the ground, with
their tongues loling from their heated
mouths. The man who had them in charge
cracked his whip in vain, aud then, finding
all efforts useless, Embarrassed them, when,
in an instant tho whole line bounded down,

them to rush suddenly up the bank and

A Steam Man.

The old adage which proclims that
/" there's nothing new under the sun Las
been daringly, yet successfully, refuted
Mr. Zadock Deddrick Newark machinist
has invented a man one that, moved by
steam, will perform some of the most i'm
'Portant functions of humanity, that will
stand upright, walk or run, as he is bid, in
any direction and of almost any rate OF
speed, drawing after him cart whose load
would tax the strength Of three stout
draught horses. The history of this cur,
ious invention is as follows;
Six years ago, Mr. Deddriok, the inventor
who is at present only twenty-five years OF
age, conceived the novel idea of construct.
ing man that should receive its vitality
from a perpetual motion machine. The
idea was based on the well,known mechan.
ical principle that if heavy weight be
placed on the top of an upright slightly in.
clined from vertical, gravitatiOn will tend
TO produce horizontal as well as vertical
motion.
The project was not sucoessful. How
ever, by observing carefully the cause Of
the failure, preserving aud perlecting the
man-form, and by substituting steam in
place of the perpetual motion machine, the
present success was attained.
