tised to leave this afternoon at 5 o'clock

At a meeting on Monday Of the Com
mittee OF the Pittsburgh Coal Exchange
on the triparite bridge proposed to be
built there, the following resolution was
adopted: 1--WE will determinedly op,
pose the erection Of any and all bridges
over the Ohio river, unless they are
built according to the requirements OF
the existing State and national laws,
and the piers OF the same are located
by United States engineers, We have
examined the plan of the proposed
tripartite bridge, and believe that its
erection, according to the proposed
plan, will greatly endanger navi legation,
and be especially injurious to the coal
trade" A committee was appointed to
notify the bridge company OF the action
of the committee.
The steamers Converse and Last
Chance collided forty miles above Chat
tanooga last Wednesday. The former
had her bow stove in, and the latter was

order and could not sound the proper
signal

MARrINsvILLE IrEMs.-This place for
a village can justly claim a large
amount Of musical talent and culture.

Wallace are always enjoyed by lovers
OF music.

and Improvements generally.

ALL DoUBrs REMovED.-If any one
had the least particle of doubt Of the
reliability of the Ground Hog and the
certainty Of cold weather if that little
yarmint saw his shadow, all such
doubts must now be gone. When it
is considered that such snow storm
as prevailed on Monday night could not,
by any possibility have occurred had
G. II. been unable 10 see his "shadder"
on the second day Of February, we
must concede the reliability Of the
ground hog as prophet, and take more
stock in him hereafter. His lease OF
prophecy and power-the limit Of six
weeks-expires on Friday next, after
which time ground hog stock will be at
a discount, hallelujah!

ANOTHER BURST UP.-On Monday
night the Iron Guards concluded that
playing soldier without arms didn't
pay, and concluded to abandon their or.
ganization, and as young men OF
patriotic impulses" retired from the
public gaze. If it is tie intention OF
the Governor to prevent the organiza
ton Of our militia he is managing the
thing admirably, and if be continues as
he has begun, there will not be a mill
tary organization in the State by the
end OF another month. In other States
the formation Of such companies is en-
couraged by legislation the most friendly
and everything that can be is done to
have the militia organized and made
effective. The young man of pasri.
otto impulses who occupies the Cub
ernatorial chair Of this State seems TO
have learned his ideas of fostering and
encouraging the militia 10 quite differ
ent school. Although authorized by
law to do so, he has not yet issued
commission to any Of the officers, con-
sequently no arms with which to drill
can be had. As the maintenance OF a
company is pretty expensive. the boys
have concluded that il tn Governor don't
want them they don't want to serve.
They are right. What would the
Guards, iron though they be, do in
fight with British Fusileers without
arms? Yot being expert in the use of
legs they must have arms.

ing the gwhole epidemic, his administrative
ability, his zeal and, his Industry were more
than ever conspicuous.
Colonel Taylor was man who, without
courtlng popularity, gained general confidence
and respect This was the need of an up
right and honorable career; a lifetime of stern
rectItude and iufexlble mercantile integrity.
We dare not dwell upon the circumstances
of his awfllly sudden dea:h. Apparently IN
perfect health, he was seated at table on satur.
day evening, when he suddenly put his mana
to his head saying, "This is apop1eSy" De
was then removed to the library Ia an insen'
sible condition. His physicians, who were in'
'stantly summoned, were unable In any way 10
relieve him, and he breathed his last at SIX
O'Clock without, for an instant, recovering his
consciousness.
His funeral services will take place this al
ternoon, at three. clock, at the Gleoe street
Presbyterian Church. I
