The Chairmen of the severs committees having in charge the late soldiers* reunion in Indianapolis met on the 9th, and found on hand, after settlement, a surplus of $1,134.76, which they transferred to the monument fund. A five-year-old son of Samuel Simmons, residing at Sharpsville, was instantly killed the other afternoon while climbing on a log wagon. His head was caught between the wheels and bolster and crushed to. a shapeless mass.

The Governor on the 11th appointed the following gentlemen to represent the State at the Railroad Convention to be held at St. Louis on Nov. 23: Hon. Leonidas Sexton, E. S. Alvord, Chas. Viele, Hon. C. M. Allen, Jesse J. Drown, Hon. J. R. Cravens, B. F. Claypool, M. L. Bundy, John Cavin, D. W. Voorhees, Judge 8. C. Wilson, Dr. M. G. Sherman, C. B. Knowlton, Hon. Ochweig Bird, Dr. G W. McConnell. Un account of the disclosures made to the Grand Jury of the United States Court by Gen. Neatch, Collector of the First District, the Court on the 9th issued an order for the seizure of Distillery No. 1, at Patoka, Gibson County, for frauds upon the revenue. This distillery was owned by Brigham Bros., of Evansville, and by them lately transferred to the present proprietors, who, it is understood, will not make any attempt to contest the seizure of the property. In the Supreme Court, on the Bth, an opinion was filed which disposes of the Lafayette intra-municipal jangle. The question presented was as to the power of a City Judge to exercise jurisdiction in a suit for violation of a city ordinance. The court holds that the law under which the office of City Judge was sought to be created was inoperative. There is no pro. vision in tlie act declaring that when a City Judge has been provided for and elected he shall have and exercise the same jurisdiction conferred upon the Mayor by the act of March 14, 1867, or that he shall have any jurisdiction whatever. The court fails to find, from anything contained in the act now in force, that the City Judge, when elected, is to supersede the Mayor in his official duties, for . the plain reason that there is no language of the act which attempts to express such an intention, as the City Judge does not snpen-ede the Mayor, and the Mayor is required to hold court daily and is given exclusive jurisdiction. In cases involving infractions of city ordinances it is held that the City Judge has no jurisdiction. As this implies the creation of a judicial officer without any cases to try, it must be attributed to oversight on the part of the Legislature in failing to define his jurisdiction.

Hon. J. H. Smart, Superintendent of Public Instruction, has prepared a summary of the annual reports of the County Superintendents for the year ending Sept. 7, from which the following figures are taken: Number of white children admitted into the schools during the year, 495,110; colored, 6,651; males, 267,463; females, 241,911; number of school districts, 9,191; colored schools taught during the year, 182; white teachers employed, 18,047; colored teachers, 86; average compensation of male teachers per day in townships, $2.03; females in townships, $1.80; males in towns, $3.25; females in towns, $1.96; males in cities, $4.71; females in cities, $2.28; total revenue received for tuition, $4,797,127.45; amount expended since Sep! ember, 1874, $2,830,747.15; on hand, $1,966,380.34; received on account of special fund, $2,^54,395.45; expended since.

The Arrangements for the Coming

10, 1876, and remain open everyday, ex cept Sunday, until Nov. 10. There will be • fixed price of fifty cents for admission to all the buildings and grounds. The Women’s Centennial Executive Committee have raised <30,000 for the erection ot • pavilion in which to exhibit every kind of women’s work. To this collection women of all nations are expected to contribute. Power In the Machinery Hall will be chiefly supplied by a pair of monster Corliss engines. Each cylinder is forty inches in diameter, with a stroke of ten feet ; the fly-wheel is thirty-one feet in diameter, and weighs fifty-five tons; the horse-power is 1,400, and the number of boilers is twenty. This engine drives about a mite of shafting. The Secretary of the Navy has arranged that a United States war vessel shall call next spring st convenient European ports •to collect and transport hither to the 'Exhibition the works of American artists resident in Europe. Among the ports thus far designated are Southampton for England, Havre for France, Bremen for Germany and Leghorn for Italy, to which, if desirable, others may be added. Mr. Bell, the eminent English sculptor, who designed the groups for the plinth for the great Albert Memorial in Hyde Park, London, is reproducing in terra cotta, at the celebrated works in Lambeth, the one which symbolizes America. The figures in this group are colossal, covering a ground space of fifteen feet square. It will probably be placed in the great central gallery, opposite the principal entrance.

Ah important special exhibition will be made by the United States Government and is being prepared under the supervision of a board of officers representing the several executive departments of the Government. A fine building of four and one-half acres is provided for the purpose, space in which will be occupied by the War, Treasury, Navy, Interior, Postoffice and Agricultural Departments and the Smithsonian Institution. The Machinery building, like the others, is already fully covered by applications. There are about 1,000 American exhibitors in this department, 150 English and 150 from other European countries — which is about 250 more than entered the Vienna Machinery Exhibition. Extra provision is being made for annexes to accommodate the hydraulic machinery, the steam hammers, forges, hoisting engines, boilers, plumbers, carpenters, etc. The Centennial grounds arc situated on the western bank of the Schuylkill River, and within Fairmount Park, the largest public park in proximity to a great city in the World, and one of the most beautiful m the country. The park contains 3,160 acres, 450 of which have been inclosed for the Exhibition. Besides this tract there will be large yards near by for the exhibition of stock, and a farm of forty-two acres has already been suitably planted for the tests of plows, mowers, reapers and other agricultural machinery.

The Art Exhibition will include in addition to the works of contemporary artists representative productions of the past century of American art—those, for instance, of Stuart, Copley, Trumbull, West, Alston, Sully, Neagle, Elliot, Kensett, Cole. These, as well as the works offered by living artists, will be passed upon by the Committee of Selection, who will visit for the purpese New York, Boston, Chicago and other leading cities, in order to prevent the needless transportation to Philadelphia ot works of art not up to the standard of admission. The Exhibition buildings are approached by eight lines of street-cars, which connect with all tlie other lines in the city, and by the Pennsylvania and Reading RitiUpads, over the tracks of which trains will also run trom the North Pennsylvania undPhiladelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore Railroads. Thus the Exhibition is in immediate connection with the entire railroad system of the country, and anyone within ninety miles of Philadelphia can visit it at no greater cost than that of carriage hire at the Paris or Vienna Exhibition. The articles to be exhibited have been classified in seven departments, which, for the most part, will be located in appropriate buildings, whose several areas are as follows: Department. BuUdlnqe. Acree Covered. 1. Miii’g & MetTgy, 1 2. Manufacture*. /-Main Building 21.47 8. Kducafnand Sci. ) 4. Artr Art Gallery 1.5 5. Machinery. Machinery Bnfld’g 14. 8. Agriculture Agrfcu’ttital Building.. .10. 1. Horticulture, Horticultural Building.. 1.5 Total, 48.47

This provides nearly ten more acres for exhibiting space than there were at Vienna, the largest International Exhibition yet held. Yet the applications of exhibitors have been so numerous as to exhaust the space, and many important classes of objects must be provided for in special buildings. A large number of orders and fraternities have signified their intention to hold gatherings at Philaaelphia during the period of the Exhibition. Among those which may now be enumerated are the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania, Independent Order of Odd Fellows; the Grand Encampment, Independent Order of Odd Fellows; Grand Lodge United States, Independent Order of Odd Fellows; Grand Commandery Knights Templar; Grand Army of the Republic; Presbyterian Synod; Caledonian Club; Portland Mechanic Blues; Welsh National Eistedfi dd; Patriotic Order Sons of America; California Zouaves of San Francisco; an International Regatta; the Life Insurance Companies; National Board of Underwriters; State Agricultural Society; Second Infantry, N.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Quick-baked Batter Pudding.—One pint of milk, four tabtespoonftils flour, or better, two of flour and two of corn-starch, two eggs, juice of lemon. Bake on tin pie-plate in a hot oven about twenty minutes. ■,» Baked Squash Hubbard.— Take squash; cut in half; clean inside nicely; put into oven flesh side up, an hour before dinner. Serve hot, with butter, pepper and salt Those squash not quite ripe are also good thus baked. To Cook Beets.—The true way to cook a beet is to bake, not boil it. Thus treated, and sliced either in vinegar or -in butter, it is exceedingly palatable and nutritious. Boiling extracts the most valuable part of this vegetable. Home-made Hair-Oil.—Take a sufficient quantity of fresh butter and filter it through tissue or fine letter paper, and then cut it With alcohol. It can be scented with any essence that is liked, makes a good, soft dressing for the hair, and is not stall expensive. Dried-Beef Frizzled in Cream.— Chip the beef as thin as paper with a very sharp knife. Melt in a frying-pan butter the size of an egg, stir the beef about in it for two or three minutes, dust in a little flour, add half a teacupful of rich cream, give a boil up, and serve in a covered dish. Wash-Day Pudding.—One pint of flour, three eggs, one teaspoonful of pounded sugar, one cupful of milk, half a teaspoonful of soda, one teaspoonful cream of tartar, one full tablespoonful of butter; rub the soda through the flour, dissolve the cream of tartar in the milk and stir all together quickly, just before dinner is served; bake in a quick oven and eat with sauce, either hard or soft. Baked in small tins or open pans,.this forms nice teacakes. Durable .Bedding.—A woman who has raised a large family recommends housekeepers to take a good quality of unbleached cotton, run up the breadths for top and lining of quilt, and then color it with any cheap domestic dye, such as japonica, annatto, white oak bark or any such thing. Quilt them coarsely an<l put more cotton-batting in than would be needed for ordinary bed-quilts. They will wear years longer than ordinary new calico and are especially to be desired in large families of boys. If desired, outside spreads may be made of more fanciful materials. Oyster Pie.—For this pie, puff paste may be used. Butter a deep tin two-quart basin, line the bottom and sides with the paste, rolled to about half an inch thickness ; take a quart or three pints of oysters from their own liquor and put them into a pie; cut a quarter of a pound of sweet butter in bits the size of a hicko-ry-nut, strew these over the oysters; sprinkle over a teaspoonful of ground pepper, and dredge them white with wheat fiour, then strain the oyster liquor.over; add to it enough milk or water very nearly to reach the top of the paste; lay some skewers across; roll some of the paste to nearly half an inch thickness, make an aperture in the center to allow the steam to escape, also several small incisions with a knife on either side of the center; cover the pie; dip your fingers in flour and pinch the top and side paste peatly together. Bake nearly one hour in a quick oven; draw out the skewers before sending to the table.— Rural New Yorker.

People live longer than they did when the “ Psalmist” set the limit at “ three score and ten.” A hundred years ago the average duration of human life was about twenty-eight years. In 1817 it had increased to thirty-one years, and is now, as we learn from recent compilations of mortality statistics, nearly forty years. This may be ascribed to improvements in habits of life, better houses,' food, clothing and medical attention, to the diminution of pestilence and to a very marked diminution of the mortality of infants.— Rural Neib Yorker.

The other day when a resident of First street went home to dinner his wife asked him why he sent a stranger to the house after his Sunday suit. “ I didn’t,” he bluntly replied. “ But a young man called and said so, and I gave him the clothes,” she said. There was a painful pause, and she continued: “You can’t blame me.” “No, I can’t,” he replied, “ but I wish you and I knew enough to last us over night.” She didn’t eat any dinner, of course.— Detroit Free Press. Mr. Editor: In every city, town and hamlet in the land may be found some feeble person unable to perform hard labor; some man or woman that delights in visiting the sick and ministering to their wants, some local preacher not fnHy occupied, or some unoccupied person who would like to add a little to their present income—and I want some such person in every place where I have no agent to sell a Medicinal Extract made by the Shakers, which has proved of such signal service in the cure of those longstanding diseases that prevail in all parts of our country, and which have heretofore resisted all kinds of medical treatment.
