FOE- TIOB 7BSSIPBKT: WILLIAM R. KING, nr at.abaMA: Subject to the tarns decision . ■* Business Matters. —Our streets presented quite a brisk appearance yesterday. A consid erable amount of gooclß was shipped to the South and West. Quite a number of steamboats were receiving freight. The Cincinnati packets hare resnjped their regular trips, and are doing a fair business. : Our city is well supplied with goods of all descriptions, especially Pittsburgh manu factured articles, which can be bought at satis feotory prices. Now is the time for country merchants to-visit the city to make their pur chases. . : -■ - Tile Mayor anil the Police Committee. ■\ We published yesterday morning, a letter from the Mayor ,to the City Counoiis, setting forth the 'extraordinary eondnct of the Police Committee, * m the appointment of the Night Watch. It is a olear-and- candid exposnre -of. a contemptible attempt on the part of the Committee to thwart an efScientv.faithfal, and impartial officer u the discharge of his duties to the people. The Com mittee appear to have got the vise idea into their noddles, that they coaid aggravate Mayor Guthrie, by depriving him of his efficient aubor. .dinatea.- This-may be very pleasant for them, bnt whether it will bo to the advantage of the . city.or the safety of the citizens, is yet to be made apparent. One thing is certain, and that U, that competent officers—men on whom the ■- people can rely to guard them against the rillianies of the bnrglar and incendiary, have / Seen discharged to make places for a parcel of worthless “ dead heads,” many of whom are better qualified to be the recipient of a watch man’s care, than to guard the peace and quiet of the city. Since Mayor Gnthrie went into office, he has been ossidnoosin reforming tbe lawless manners that hod been introduced under the preceding Imbecile and worthless administration. Feeling the necessity of a reform, and having foil confi dence in him, the Polloe Committee last year allowed him a competent and trustworthy corps of .watchmen, to aid in the regeneration of the I city from the disgraoefol position in whloh it had 1 been placed, by the triumphant role of the I lowest blackguardism. He did redeem the city> I and wiped out the black epot thathad been plae-1 ed upon its reputation, and in accomplishing I this he has been materially aided by the active I subordinates he was permitted to employ. But, I as the city under his wise and prudent rule, is I comparatively peaceful and safe, the Police Com- j mittee of the present year, appear to think that | there is no- longer a necessity for an efficient I Watch, and that any one who can “ go through I the motions,” will suit for tbe positidn that has I been filled by brave and vigilant men for the last I twelve months. I The Night Watch, as it is now constituted, with a. few honorable exceptions, would hare been..discharged as 'arrant knaves,” by the ancient Dogberry, and if the committee do not desire to be written down as the animal Dogber ry desired to represent, they had better recon sider their foolish attempt to annoy the Mayor by giving him an incompetent police. We are sorry to think that the whole coarse of the Committee has been diotated by a mean spirit of Bmall political opposition, which must result to the injury of the citizens and of the city Mayor Guthrie, although a Democrat, has never obtruded his political opinions upon the pnblia in the discharge of his official duties. As the Execu tive of our city he has been impartial to a degree that has won for him the esteem of men of alt i parties, and which has insured his reinstalment I in the office that he has so ably filled since his first eleotion. Ills study has been to serve the people, end to secure them from the dangers they had to encounter in former times; and to do this efficiently it is necessary that he should I have a reliable police force. We do not believe I that the Watoh, selected by the Committee, will I suit any pnrpose of the kind, and we-therefore I hope that the Councils will take the matter into | consideration, and lf they desire the preserva- I tioa of the peace of the city, give the Mayor finch . privileges m his efforts to preserve it os Will mate them effective. forest City Bank, Cleveland* This institution, recently established in oar sister city on Lake Erie, is now in full operation- The Bank owes its existence, principally, to the enterprise of Pittsburgh capitalists,-—two-thirds of the stock' being owned In this city. The ac tual capital, of the Bank at present is $100,000; bat the charter allows it to be.increased at any time to $500,000.' The company are now erect ing a splendid new building on Superior street, inwhioh their,business may be.transaoted. It is a large and substantial edifice, with a beanii ful stone front, and will be ready for ocoupanoy in about a month. It will cost some $13,000 J, G. Hussey, Esq., ib President, ond A. W Bbooeway, Esq., is Cashier of the Forest City Bank. These gentlemen are well known to the pnblio as intelligent business men. Hotels tn Cleveland* There is no city in the Union, of its popula tion, that con boast of finer Hotels than Cleve land. The .Weddell, New England, Dunham, Franklin, and American, are all first class Houses, and are provided with everyeonvenienoe ’ to make their guests comfortable. During a re cent excursion to- the Forest City, we stopped at the American Hotel, kept by Wnxus Milvobd, Esq., who Is certainly a pnnae amongst land lords—attentive,-obliging, and gentlemanly,— This Hotel, daring the past year, has been tho , roughly re-modelled, improved, enlarged, and beautified, and its interior arrangements cannot be excelled by any similar establishment in tho United States or elsewhere. The parlors are large and beautifully furnished; and the cham bers are m all respects olean auii comfortable. — Mr. J. B. Subbbuq, formerly of tho Franklin, an effioientmnd polite clerk, is the principal as . sistant in the management of this excellent Hotel. ■ UiSt— The Atncnctm announces with its usual ; veraoity, that the Post is. out against Governor Bulbs. This is not so. The Post considers ;■ Mr. Bigler a taost worthy recipient of the favor -- of the Democratic voters of Pennsylvania, butat tire same time.ittakea the liberly.of saying, that - the Governor made a great'mistake in the ap pointmentof Flour Inspector for Pittsburgh. We have said it, and we’ll.stick to it. Perhaps the editor of American thinks that a more griev ous mistake tvos made in the appointment of Sealer of Weights and Measures ? Will- he answer? It is remarkable that virile the somber : of emigrants from Ireland for. the United States has increased daring the last quarter, the pro portion of children under 14 has greatly fallen off.

We havo been frequently asked for Informa tion relative to then; outrageous proceedings re cently commenced in the. Legislature of Penn sylvania respecting the Wheeling Bridge Case, now pending inthe-SupremeCourt of the United States. Through the politeness of onr Repre sentative Mr. Applktoh, we have been furnish ed with a copy of the Preamble and Resolntion introduced in the Houbo on the 28d of January, by Mr. Lauqhuh, and lose no time m present ing the esme to onr readers, m order that they may see the infamous plot set on foot to destroy the interests of Pittsburgh : Whereas, A snit has been introduced in the Supreme Court of the United States in the name of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, for the purpose of proonrmg the abatement of the bridge across the Ohio at Wheeling, on the charge of nuisance; And. Whebeas, It is understood by the Leg islature that the elevation of the aforesaid bridge is ninety-two feet above low water, and mare than sixty feet above the common spring floods, and offers no impediment to the naviga tion excepting in so far os that six or seven boats carrying ohimneysof extraordinary height are compelled to lower their chimneys in high water; And Whebeas, Several of the highest of tbese chimneys have been, built since the said bridge was commenced; And Whebeas, The said Wheeling bridge is nearly three time as high above the water as the oqnednot constructed by, and the bridges conßtrncted under the authority of the Legisla ture of this State at Pittsburgh; And Whebeas, The Wheeling bridge is the only bridge anthemed by the State of Virginia to be created across the Ohio river, and la an the direct railroad route from the central, south ern and eastern portions of the State of Penn sylvania to the west and south-west; And Whebeas, With a knowledge of these facts, it would be unworthy the honor and dig nity of this Commonwealth to permit the con tinuance of that prosecution, deemed to be un just to the defendants os it is hurtful to the great interests of the State of Pennsylvania: There fore, Resolved, By the Senate and House of Repre sentatives of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in General Assembly met, That all legal proceed ings instituted against the Wheeling Bridge Company in the name of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania be withdrawn, and that the Attor ney General be and he is hereby instructed to cause the same to be forthwith discontinued. Every nation has its own way of doing its charity.. In England they usually invest, or leave to be invested, a Bum of money, the income alone of which is applied to the designated char ity. The followtng table shows the extraordi nary extent to which this has been done in that country. Charities, the incomes of which do not amount to £5 per annum, 13,831; amount ing to £6 and under £lO, 4,641; to 10 and un der 20, 3,908; to 20 and under 30, 1,860; to 30 and under 60, 1,799 ; 60 and under 100, 1,640 ; 100 and under 600, 1,417 ; 600 and un der 100, 209; 1000 and under 2000, 78 ; 2000 and upwards, 56.

On Saturday lost, Margaret Lobrens, the mistress of Otto Grunrig, was arrested in New York, on a charge of mnrder, growing out of the alleged confession made by her in the case of the mnrder of Grunzig*s wife, the prisoner having asserted that she (Margaret) had placed the poison in the boose without the knowledge of Grunrig, which confession was the means of Gov. Hunt granting Grunrig a farther respite of four weeks. When taken into custody, she be came alarmed, and much excited, exclaiming in broken English, scarcely intelligible, that she did not poison any one. She is the mother of one, and will shortly be of two children. She was committed to prison. Present to Lola Mobtez— Ou Saturday evening, Lola Montez performed in Philadelphia for the benefit of disabled firemen: and on its conclusion she was called out, when Colonel Wallace, on behalf of the firemen, in a neat speech, presented her with a medallion likeness of Gen. Washington, Lola made a short reply, in substance os follows: I “ Oh, sir! what can 1 say to you and your ; brave associates, for this inestimable gift \ou could not have conferred upon mo a greater honor, a more real pleasure—the image of one known all over the world, as the father of this gtonous country* May all his sbna emulate the example of the patriotic firemen.

He is now at the house of his son, in this city, and in better health than for tho last five years. He has been engaged in superintending the publication just made by him. The mistake doubtless arose from the fact that a man by the name of Barney died at the place of Mr. Birney’s residence.—Cin cinnati Times. EgflL- The above will be gratifying news to the numerous friends of Mr. Birney in Pittsburgh, who were lead to suppose, from an article pub lished a few days since in the Post, that he had died in Michigan. Extensive Counterfeiting Operations.— Mr. Hayman, deputy U. S. Marshal, returned to Cincinnati on Thorsday last, after an unsuc cessful pursuit after a man named Robert Neal, charged with carrying on extensive counterfeit ing operations at Mount Carmel. Ohio. Neal is a man of property, and by profession a litho graphic and steel plate printer It is estimated that during the last few years he has counter feited $400,000 ou the B(ate Banks of Ohio and Indiana, and the Northern Bank of Kentucky. In fact, it is believed he has issued nearly all the counterfeit money on these banks that has flooded the country for several years.

A Great Canal In California* An important canal is m coarse of construe* tion from Bear river to Auburn, by a company of minors, which is worthy of notice. Tho San Franoisco Express thus describes it: “The dißtanoe from Beaver River to Auburn, by the lino of the canal, is 42 miles, while in a direct line it is soarcely more than 22. The in creased distance of the canal is attributed to tbe fact of its winding around huge mountains Of this distance eight miles is Burned. “There are four aeqaeduots now completed, of tbe following dimensions: No. I is 612 feet m length, by 186 feet in height. It is 52 feet at the base, by 6 feet across tbe top. No. 2is 230 feet in length, by 45 feet in height. No 3 is 276 feet m length, by 74 feet in height. No 4 is 472 feet in length, by 64 feet m height. “ From tbe completion of the tunnel there will be a fall of about tpo hundred feet, which would be sufficient to ran machinery for a second Low ell. The heaviest portion-of this great under taking, is the tunnelling of the principal moun tain which divides the two extremes of the work. This tunnel will be about two thousand feet in length, and is now completed abont two thirds of tbe distance through the mountain. Engag ed on. this stupendous work are about two hun dred men. This canal, which was commenced about four months since, and has been conduct ed by private enterprise only, it is believed will be completed by tbe first of January, 1852, and from the striot economy used in every de partment, it is estimated that $200,000 will cov er all the expenses of the construction. Curry ing twenty one cubic feet of water, at the rate of six miles per hour, it is estimated that the supply will be ample for 1,000 sluices, and to furnish profitable employment for 10,000 men. A Clond on dismount l«—The Fearful Hevenge of a Swiss Girl' A Swiss paper states that the beautiful valley of Cbamouni baa just been tbe scene of a terri ble tragedy, the circumstances of which are as follows: A beautiful%oung girl, named Adelaide Zwert, was engaged to be married to a young Chamoise hunter, named Carl Signer, to whom she had long been tenderly attached. The marriage day was fixed, but Carl found means to postpone it, and the year passed away—his promise being still unfulfilled. His evident unwilliogness at length awakened suspicion in the mind of Ade laide. She became jealous and distrustful, and narrowly watched all the movements of her lover, until proof was no longer wanting that her place in his heart was filled by another, and that Carl only awaited a plausible pretext to break with her altogether. The young girl vowed revenge—and fearfully has she kept her vow. Having seen some gun-cotton in the hands of a young druggist, by whom sho was passionately though vainly loved, aud whose constancy and devotion merited a better recompense, sbo sue? ceeded lu obtaining some from him—without, of oourso giving him the slightest hint of the use she intended it for. It was in appearance ex actly like ordinary wadding. Carl was a great smoker, and she had often remarked that sparks from his pipe had burned holes in a large wool len scarf which be was accustomed to wear round bis neck during his bunting expeditious on tbe mountains. i Adelaido kmt a doable scarf, in wbipb Bhe in troduced a quantity of gun-cotton, • and this •* infernal machine'’ of her construction she pre sented, with many demonstrations of tenderness, to her faithless lover, having obtaiued in ex change, by way of a souvenir, the old scarf he had beeu accustomed to wear. Chance favored Carl for some time : but one evening be did not return from tbe chase : uext day passed, aud be did not appear. His faintly alarmed at bis unwonted abseucc. sought him tn different directions on tbe mountains, where they at length found lmn a lifeless aud disfigured corpse—burned in tbe most shocking manner ! Numerous traces around indicated that death had been slow m comiug, and that the unfortu nate victim had struggled long m his agony Adelaide, ou learning how fearfully she was avenged, was seized with remorse and immedi ately gavo herself up to justice making a fall confession of her crime. Dlormonlim Exposed Mr. John Hardy, au ex-Mormon, writes to tbe Boston Transcript, giving au erpose of the proc- Ucea and belief of tbe Mormons. Among other thiogs, Mr. Hardy Bays: In regard to Polygamy, It bos been preached among them for years; and, if it were necessary, L could give you oases of the separation of hus bands and'wives, the breaking up of families, the demoralization of young women by some of these twelve apostles, In this city and vicinity, that would almost ohill the heart's blood They teach and avow openly that marriages performed out of that church Are null and void, and can be broken at the pleasure of either or both parties! There is no particular order or system about it. The beads of the church man age to secure to themselves the most desirable of the females that join the ohuroh: and when tired of them, give them over to tbe laymen of the church, and not before. I know of one instance of a family from this city, where the mother and two daughters (mere children) were used as wives by theso apostlea, Heber Kimball: he at the s&me time living with his lawful wife! I kuow of another case, in which P. P. Pratt, another of these 12, took tho young wife of Mr. Hum of this oity, unbeknown to him, and they have lived as bus band and wite since. But your Bpace will not permit me to begin to enumerate instances of that kind that have come to my personal knowledge. Instead of polygamy, it should be termed Licentiousness run mad. Any and all these oharges I stand roady to substantiate by their own documents, and by unimpeachable witnesses. Another Steamboat Disaster—Probable liOss of the St. Paul.

Yore, stating that tbe boat had grounded at Glascock’s Island—that a protest had been entered, and that tbe boat had been abandoned. Although the information whioh has thus reaohed us, is by no means sat* isfactofry, yet we fear that the St. Paul is lost. This fine boat has been one of our most pop ular New Orleans traders since 1847, in which year she was bnilt. During all of this time she was estimated as one of the money-making boats of tbe day, and since Capt. P. Yore took charge of her she had been equally successful Tbe St. Paul left Louisville on the 9th ult-, with a large and profitable trip : she was de tained several days by the ice in the Ohio. The St. Paul was owned by Messrs. McAllister & Co., Capt. P. Yore and the Clerk. (Mr R E Phillips,) and was insured tn this city for $ll - 000. During the day we will probably receive further information respectiug the fate of this boat.— S(. Lows Union.

Dbatiis in Haetfobd, 1851.—The whole number of deaths tn that city for the past year, js £94, of whgoh number 21£ were foreigners— about four-fifths of tho whole. This dispropor tion-will probably strike, some with astonish-1 mont, particularly as the number of the foreign I populattoirfalls short of one-fifth of the aggre-I gate. ... ..... % f lE,' ", .
