A Word to Pillaburg. ;The editor of the Pitts]) Journal,` In re- Ay to our article on Pennsittatida-sredit k evi:. dently misunderstood our ? ridden': Wo had intention of denying tho , ;righi, - ;:of the Le gislature to fax interallt ort• the debt of the tr3pramonwealth—we :questioned 4 the Ppcy. Taxation is an incident to govern ment, and its justification, in all doubtftil cases, islin its necessity. No ono has cause to com plain when it is imposed equally. The decree Cr4'unTPXY - o.istin, f , that all the world should be taxed t " will, ho faithfully observed tS the end of time. We merely remarked, in commenting upon the article' of ,tini:Londtin Times upon • our State credit, that 'the' tax upon the interest on one lam Offended•in thii—that it was a direct 'alteintion of the terms of the'original contract. In - Yeply to tbis;tho lemma contends that the right of tatation was reserved, and that when the bans of the'CoMmonwealth were negoiia ted, it was with the tacit understanding that, in future, the State could reducti the interest. In support of this position of the Journal, we ourselves cited the practice of England, which, at ono period of her history, funded her loans by creating a now one and giving to the hold ers a certificate for a larger amount of princi pal and reducing the interest thereon, so that the interest on • the new lean at the reduced rate, was precisely "equal to the interest re delved oii the old—the object of this being to 6iluce the rate of interest in the realm, with. out impairing the contract, Now, we believe this is accomplished in another way—by re deeming the loan at par, or giving to holders the option to accept new certificates bearing the reduced rate of interest. We are gratified, however, to notice the the Journal evinces a sensitiveness on the point of municipal credit, and hail it as a favo rable omen. It betokens a returning sense of the obligation it owes, as a censor of public morals, to' endeavor to rescue its own local „financial credit from the imputation It justly labdrs under In refusing to provide for the in terest on its municipal indebtedness. The Object of our article was to deplore that state Of public sentiment in Allegheny county which fvould sanction a violation of its contracts, and its persistent refusal, after a decree of the Su promo Court, to provide for the interest upon its municipal subscriptions to railroad enter prises. These obligations were purchased upon the faith and credit of Allegheny county. Her citizens Canna, complain now; if they re mained silent at the time when they ought to liave spoken, they must remain silent when 1 they want to speak and ought not. The citi zens of Allegheny comity well knew, at the time of these subscriptions, that a social COM- pact was being made, involving a pledge of their taxes, and these are bound, by their tacit acquiescence in'the action of their authorities, to those who trusted in their promises as a safe and undoubted security. Nor are these bonds in the hands of stock jobbers on Third street alone; they aro mostly held in our city by -bona fide purchasers, and in trust for widows and orphans. Perhaps 'one-third of all that is held here is in a fiduci ary capacity; for these securities, besides be ing made a legal investment for trust funds, were, at one time, in great favor with our Or phans' Court. In conclusion, we will add that we had no disposition to imitate the Pharisee, in invidi misty 'contrasting the credit of Philadelphia and Pittsburg. At the time when private capi tal was inadequate to the development of our State resources, our city, like Pittsburg, loaned her credit largely to the construction of railroads that would increase the trade and eririch our citizens, and as a measure of self protection from rival projects of other States. Mame of these investments , have not been productive, and expectations have not been realized, no one will deny but that the body politic has derived the benefits of closer com munication. In alluding to the credit of Phi ladelphia, we merely wished to encourage our fellovi-citizens of Allegheny county, and espe cially these who reside in the Birmingham of America; fur while our city pays the interest upon over five millions of dollars subscribed to non-Paying railroads, Pittsburg and Alle gheny county aro only called upon to provide for the interest upon a much smaller amount. The Pike's Peak Gold Mines. Notwithstanding' the unfavorable reports which have been made of the Pike's Peak gold mines, it is still stoutly contended that a large 'amount of gold is being discovered in'tliat region. A special' commissioner rc contiv_appointed by Governor "Bracx, of Ne braska,' tti - ovomli,,, the west ern portion of that Territory, has made a very tlattering'statement of its quern) riches. We have also before us the Rocky Mouotaltt Qold RepOrter (printed at Mountain City, in the new mining regions) of the 17th ult. It co pies a communication, giving an nufavorable report of the mines, from the Missouri Re publican, and pronounces its statements un true. It says: " Messrs. Gridley d: Henderson, of Cass county, lowa, bought two chime of one hundred feet each, of J.ll. Gregory, on the Gregory lode, for the sum of $21,000, to be paid aeortam part, so taken out. Messrs.

M., and rounded to off Lewes, Delaware, at 51'. M., when, having landed a passenger, she proceeded to sea at 0 o'clock, bound to the Paciflo on a three-years cruise. During the passage down the river and bay the capacity of her machinery was tested up to nearlyeleven hundred home-power, and at times making eighty-five revolutions per minute. There are a few facts in relation to this vessel worthy of note. First, she has been built and sent to sea before either of the five others (contracted for at the seine time) has applied steam to her machinery, being at toast four months in favor of this oily in the time required to construct a vessel of her size ; and second, while her machinery, built by Merrick st Sons, of this city, bee in every respect come up to the guarantee given by them to the Nail Department ; its cost is twenty-five thousand dollars loss than is paid by the Government in Now York for the same thing. Wo trust that the Navy Department will not overlook these facts. The advantages of time, as well as money, have always been, and are now snore than over, in our favor in the construction of war steamers, and unless these old proverbs, that time is money and ecotiontyis wealth, aro false, it Is the Interest of the Oovernmeht to sustain, as far as possible, their naval establishment in this eity.

They ascended at 5.33 P. M.,'and In she minutes were far above the clouds. At 5.50 they were at least two miles high—thermometer 84 degrees. They continued to ascend very rapidly, and at 6.10 the thermometer indicated a temperature of 18 degrees. The balloon then began to descend, and a quantity of ballast was thrown over. At about half past seven they descended into a!valley near a high mountain, but as the place looked forbidding they threw over 30 petunia of ballast and rose again. In about twenty minutes they made another effort to descend, but found themselves surrounded by a dense wit derness and over a small lake. They then threw over all their ballast but 18 liounds, and, alter getting over the wilderness, settled down by the side of a tree to wait till morning. Much rain fell through the night, and they became thoroughly drenched with it.. At about six o'clock next morning they threw overboard all their remaining ballast) blankets, shawls, and rose again. They were rapidly driven northward over an unbroken wilderness, and concluded that they had gone too (hr. Mr. LlAnnocw. says : "As the current was driving us still to the north, we dare not stay up. as we were drifting further and still further to that ' frozen tide' from which wo know there was no escape. Mr. La M. seized the valve cord and discharged gas, and we de scended in safety by the side of a tall spruce. We made the Atlantic fast by her anchor, and for a moment talked over what we should do. We had not a mouthful to eat ; no protection at night from the damp ground; were distant we knew not how far from habitation ; wore hungry to start with ; no earthly hope of raising a fire, anti no distinct idea as to where we were. We settled in our own minds that we were either in John Brown's tract or in the groat Canada wilderness—to the south, we thought, of the Ottawa—and know that a course south by east would take us out, if we had strength enough to travel tho distanee. La M. stepped up to the balloon and gave the edge of the basket a parting shake, saying, Good byo, old Atlantic,' and I fancied I could see a tear in his honest eye when he said it." They then started to the south, on foot, and after travelling about a mile and a half came to the bank of a small creek, upon which they found an old pork barrel with a Montreal in. speetion mark upon it, from which they con eluded they were in Canada. After travelling on Friday up the unknown creek, they diem*. cred an uninhabited lumber shanty, in which they spent the night. The next morning they built u raft, in the hope that they could be floated out of the wilderness, as the lumber Is floated out in the spring; but they encountered great difficulties from the shallowness of the waters, and from entering large lakes where they lost the channel entirely. Thus several weary days of suffering wore away. j Mr. HAD DOOR Bays: " It had now been four full (lays since we ate meal. All we bad eaten in the mean time was a frog apiece, four clams, and a few wild berries, whose acid properties and bitter taste had proba bly done us more harm than good. Our strength was beginning to fail vary fast, and our systems wore evidently about to undergo an extraordinary change. I did not permit myself to think of food— the thought of a well-covered table would have been too much. I thought over all of poor Strain's sufferings on the Isthmus of Darien, where ho, too, was paddling a raft down an unknown stream, but never believed be could stand half the amount of suffering be did. 'Besides, ho had means to make a fire—we had none. " Its was upon a stream which he know would lead to the sea and safety—we were upon waters whose flow we knew really nothing ot, and were as much lost as though in the mountains of the moon. But we could not give it up so,' and took fresh courage es troubles appeared to thicken. " Well, we turned the raft around, and poled her seek toward the place where we had entered this last lake. We had gone about a mile when wo heard the sound of a gun, quickly followed by a second report. No sound was ever so sweet to me as that. We hulloed as loud es we could a good many times, but could get no response. lye kept our poles going, and had gone about half a mile, when I called La Mountafit's attention to what I thought was 4 smoke curling up among the trees on the aide of a bill. my own eyesight had begun to fail me to an extent that I could not depend upon it when a long, steady gaze was necessary. lie said it was smoke, and that hp thought just below it, on the bank, wee g bark canoe. In to few mo ments the blue smoke rolled gently, yet uninista bly, above the tree tops, and we felt that we wore saved. Such a revulsion of feeling was almost too much for us. We could hardly behove our senses, and credited anything favorable to our condition with the utmost caution. Our bitter disappoint ments had taught us that lesson. " Wo paddled the raft with the ends of our poles directly: zeros the lake, near, perhaps, three tourths of a mile whip, and made for the canoe. It proved to ben large one, evidently an Indian's. Up the bank I pressed, leaving Da Afountain at the oanoo to cut off a retreat by the Indian, in case he was timid and wished to avoid us. I canoe at once upon the shanties of a' lumbering wood, and frogs the chimney of the furthest building a broad voipipe of sraoho was rising. I halloed—a noise was heard inside, and a nohte-looking Indian came to the door. traits - patiez Praneais (' was my eager inquiry, as I grasped bin outstretched hag 4, 'Yes, sir, and English, tool' lie drew me into the cabin, and there wasthe head of the Party, a nobialhearte4 liantehmen, gamed Angns Ca ...,,,m__Linuowthae,lx..tuld_ _atery—that we came In with a balloon, wore tog, anirAnur neon four days without food, asking whore wo wore.

Mr. HADDOCK concludes 1,4 1 1 , tlFrOive " follows : " Beyeral general conclusions and remarks shall tertninate the nerrettyo, already too long. ' Why did you permit yourselves to go so tar "P will naturally Impelled. To which We eeP Only reply that the wind was exceedingly light when we ascended ; that we were very soon among the clouds, and consezonntly unable to take cognizance of our (sours°, or fo Judge bow fait we were travel ling. Perhaps it Is well hero to rem ark that when you are sailing In a balloon you urn utterly un conscious of motion, unless you eon sea the earth, Nor can you tell, by a compass, In which direction you aro travelling, unless you are sufficient of an astronomer to judge from • the shifting angles formed by epttain stars. In a word, if you can not see the esrth, you cannot toll how fast, nor In which direction you move. This will, perhaps, explain why w 6 sgronsciously drifted air to latitudes so remote. Viken we rose 01)076 "ha thick 11100(01 of clouds, beton con down, we latdOubtedly struck a rapid curieet which carried us Dartheast. It to my opinion that, after we bad trvelled in this current AMA one hour, we struck 'another °punt, from a variation of Dar altitude. which bore u 6 off to the northwest. When wo descended near ttie earth the first time, we ought to have comp down ; but we were unwilling to land at night in a deep wood, even though we knew we were slot far from habita tions, and we thought it beet to pick put o better place. This wee our error, and It mane very near being a fatal one to us—it, certainly was 00 to the Atlantic.

To have a favorite piece of china chipped or broken, a pet book with its binding torn, a nice piece of furnituto fractured, is a terrible and temper-destroying nuisance, Not without a reme dy, as we can testify. Mr. Spalding, trio adver tises his Prepared Ohio in The Press to-day, soot no some of it yesterday. We devoted two hours to its practical application—result, two carved chairs completely restored, many odds and ends of china and glass made lit for 4130, a tattered map made as good as now, several daguerreotype cases renovated, and an old folio edition of lierodolus and Homer, printed in the year 1000, whose al thine boards (literally boards) were split, made strong enough to last for another century or two. We might have mended any quantity of children's broken toys, but caved in after an hour at the worst of them. This Prepared Glue, which is a liquid about as thick as glue, and applied by a brush which accompanies each bottle, is so indis pensable in a hones that we now wonder how we could have gone without it. from Washington WasitiNczos, Oct. o.—The President has recognised Henry A. Pie,eo as consul for the kingdom of the Hawaiian Islands for Boston, New Bedford, Ports mouth, and Portland, to reside at Boston. A second edition of Judge Black's pamphlet line been issued. with an appendix m reply to Senator Douglas' Wooster speech, and to the criticisms of a different kind, which have appeared in other quarters. The commercial restrictions with Brazil have been further relaxed. This is a subject in which the Ad ministration has taken an active interest. An official despatch was received to-day announcing that the ex port duty of ten per century', heretofore charged on the loading exports of Brazil, inchuling sugar, hides, and other native products, has been reduced to eight per eentuin, by a recent decree ol the Emperor,which is now in fell force. THE PRESS.-PHILADELPHIA, FRIpAY, OCTOBER 7, 1859. Letter trout ' Ocettottruttl.”. Correspondence of Tito Prom] . - . ' Wianinesna, Oct. G, 169. It seems to .bo genera* conceded that tifo Wa onal Democratic Committee, which is to meet at Washington on the 7th - December, for the pur pose of fixing the time when the Charloetort'Con , vontion shall be held, will agree upon a period be; twoon the first of April and the first of May, - 1860. The apprehension that Charleston Is not a healthy' city after the first of May, and the fact that the committee has no power to change the place whore. the Convention is to be held, will compel an early Meeting of a body the doings of which will attract universal attention, and which are now the subject of general speculation. We shall, therefore, have a long Presidential campaign, next year. The friends of Judge Douglas are not to be bout:Bled by delay, and should rally in favor of the cattail, period. Every day adds to his strength, but if the National Convention should ho postponed until Juno or July, the Administration will hare a larger margin to oporoto against him. Since Mr. Buchanan has loft fur Lancaster very little in done in the departments beyond the ordb, nary current bushman. lie attends to imporlAnt matters himself, and hen given particular inn rna- tious that nothing shall be consummated until his return. It is astonishing how kind he has become within the last two weeks. He is exceedingly anxious to see everybody from Pennsylvania. Your old friend Edward, at the door of the White House, scams to have had a sort of general order to admit every man who has a Pennsylvania faze'. The President has relaxed his frigidity, his icy nature has melted down, and he will now take by the hand all those whom for the last two years he has repelled with undissembled indifference and scorn. I stated some days ago that Judge Moon, the American minister at the Court of St. Cloud, was entirely willing to give up his position whenever the President required it. I am now convinced that if only %Vim B. Reed will behave himself pro perly prior to the election, and if Mr. Dallas, the American minister to London, will return home without any grumbling, that Pennsylvania may have, in the person of the ex-minister to China, a representative near Louis Napoleon. Mr. Buchanan having effectually punished hie frionds, feels that ho has so many enemies left to reward that ho cannot fully gratify his taste in the latter particular. It to a great slander that he over intended to appoint Bennett minister to Franco. That Bennett desired this appointment under Pierce is certain, and that Mr. Buchanan would like to give it to him is no loos certain ; but in the face of the fact that Pierce refused the place to him, and that the Senate would never confirm his nomination by Buchanan, who supposes that the editor of the Now York Herald has any chance? I give it as my deliberate opinion, that Mr. Bucha nan will either select Mr. Reed for London or for Paris, unless some untoward event should onque. You will perceive that Bon. Wm. Preston, the American minister at the Spanish Court, Is called home by the death of his father-in-law, Mr. Wickliffe, in order to settle the vast estate falling to the heirs of Mr. W., which will render the se lection of another old-line Whig in the diplomatic corps essential in order to carry out Mr. Bu chanan's policy in this respect. It is true Ultra are many excellent mon in Pennsylvania who have a right to look forward to promotion in the event of the return of Mr. Dallas, such, for Inatome, as Mr. Brewer, of Franklin. Mr. Biddle Roberts, of Pittsburg, and Mr. fit cdhead, of Northampton ; but they are Democrats, and must, therefore, give way to the exigencies of the ease. A series of very able articles have appeared in the National Intelligeneer—the old organ of the Whig party—on the Territorial question; which, being the most important issue before the American peo ple, are entitled to great consideration, from the foot that the writer professes to speak candidly, and to arrive at conclusions without reference to political prejudioes. ]laving read all these arti cles carefully, I am compelled to pay a just tribute to the fairness and skill with which the writer has discussed them. I beg of you to allow me to eopy the following conclusions, as proving emphati cally the justice of your own position on this ques tion, and the injustice of all those who aro opposed to it: That the plenary power of Congress over the Territo ries was first denied with reference to the territory ac• owed from Blexice by the treaty of Guadalupe Halal go' That this denial was uttered in oppositton to the de clued purpose of many Northern Representatives am Senators who advooatod the Congressional prohibitim of slavery in the whole of the now region. That in thin division of sentiment between the Norti and the South, Congress found itself far a time unable to agree UPoll nny legislation fur the organisation of the Territories destined to be formed put of the Mexican acquisition. That the principle of "non-Intervention by Con gress" and the dogma of " popular sovereignty in the Territories" were invented, At this time, for the pur pose of relieving Congress from a duty which it had previously discharged, but which it seemed no longer able to perform with the requisite discretion and im partiality. That the expedient thus devised And applied to the Territories in IMP was different/y Interpreted by its patrons in the North and in the Souththe former hold ing that the inhabitants of the Territories were au thorized to decide the slavery question for themselves while in a Territorial condition, and the latter holding that nny such legislation, if hostile to slavery, should ho declared null and void by the courts, 40111.19 . 0 con trary, in Moir Judgment , to the Constitution of the United Qtates, wbiofr, if wee said, protected slave pro perty in the Territnties. That the Kansas-Nebraska tall, Yrrh repealed 00 lissouri ynalmsr, eutioet tq Iwo wient interpretationa in relined to the extent of hip legislative powers conferred on the Inhabitants o f the Territ i niss igbiht remaining in their TerYitorial condition. That the friends of the bill agreed to leave the pal tuition of these differences to the decision of the 8u premo Court of the United States. That such a decision has since boon supposed to be made by the court in the case of Vied Scott, but that, unrortunately, the friends of the Kansan-Nebraska net are no mole agreed with respect to the points settled by the anid decielon than with respect to the terms of the ambiguous measure which the court was expected to make preeiso and degnito in its meaning. 'Nat, on the one hind, the Northeraldh Brenta of the Ktinsal-tiebiaslia fiitt Understand the ti&irt'to have de cided that Congress oaq intervene fur the protection of slave property, under the gonstitution. OSOr pe far as that property is protected Y the clause In relation to ti fu4itive slaves.

That great statesman said: "It is a wise rule, and should be fundamental in a Government disposed to cherish its oredit, and at the some time to restrain the use of it within the limits of tis o,c...sitars. never to borrow a dollar without Laying a ax in the same instant for paying the interest annu ally and the prinetpal within a given term, and to con eater that tax as pledged to the creditors on the public faith On such a pledge es this, eacredly observed, a Government may always command, on a reasonable in terest, all the lendable money of its citizens, whilst tne necessity of nn equivalent tax is a salutary warning to them and their constituents against oppression, bank rural; and i n.o ts t i u n ,, e i v h i p ta . bl h e t ti d o e nt i 4zir f p ro c , e n s. a r n ezgu e t r i e e n ri t: ' . to the principle laid down before nor else, in the shape of good credit and consequent high prices for bonds given under that principle, it in instruct', e to turn to the great moneyed centre of the world, London, and examine the effects which greater or leas neglect of it have pro d need upon the credit of different nations. There the national debt of Erie is an exception tp all rules, as the English believe that it will never be paid elf. hilt that its interest will never be defaulted, and that, conaequentiy it is the safest investment to secure an income from in the world. Bug, as to other nations, the price their loans bring In the Englieh market, com pared with consols, is at once a key to their amnia strength, vitality, and, the stability of their Govern ments—the Latter especially, because bankruptcy in the Goirernment is almost synonymous with revolutinn. The knglish capitallers have loaned their money free ly to Portugal, Ppais, Mexico, Peru, Venezuela, all of which Governments have expressed their thanks by repudiation, or something equivalent to it. Eittid has also parted with its capital freely to Rus sia, °h Holland, &c., which have sustained their credit. Howtee these Government loans are appreciated in the London market may be seen in the following summary of values in Aaqust, 184) , with the rate of interest be agreed to paidlip the defaulting as well as the hono rableparties : Lonna.

One of the many overflowing religious oceasicns ut this city. of the present week, was the great Union mit. sionar) meeting held at Jayne's Hall last evening, The meeting W a called at Hi o'clock. at which hour Judge Strong, Rh o officiated as chairman, opened the exercises tit announcing the first hymn, after the strig mg of which the audience avers led in prayer by the Rev. M r. Moore, of Westchester. After The prater, the chairman made a brief nildress, In which he referred in complimentary terms to the oloriTtnen and others who are now in this city attending the annual meeting of the Board oh Coininissioners for Foreign Mmiuns. Re concluded by introducing to the audience the Rev. Dr, Parker. of New York. Mi. Parker said he thought he could goons the en,inos of this, front the usual character of these annual convo cations of a anciett which had for its object the conver sion of this lost world to Christ. Jo rev iewin.r. this in strumentality, the speaker proposed to sat n few things /Omit requisite meant for carrying it on First of an. thobe who were engaged in it needed the !Autism of the poly fih.pit. Then {Ley wanted men, and they wanted m.ItY. The two latter reculsites weep sure to copse if the fu mer WAS obtained. With regard to the mro.ther were sure to come with the res wet of pure religion. While the mono was usually supplied to !longed. it was to rho young that they must look for the noire twos in this work. the that would come was the mein y—the itch which was the most difficult of all others to exorcise was that of AlariCe. . 4 Ye cannot serve Clod and Mammon," was the divine injunction whirl he wished to impress. The Church had from the beginning been addicted to the worship of money .and tt was still. Ile wished now to Mier n few suggestions with regard to liquidating the debt of thin society. whieh, he said, was but eau Cou—a mete bagatelle. lf, said he. ea ery one would contribute is little, the work would soon lie accomplished. He had once made the suegestton, at a missionary meeting, for a, ery communicant to contribute one &l iar n year till the debt was paid, to which the rick at once responded as a beautiful idea! The speaker pro ceeded to enlarge upon the policy and practicability of sun,lry plans, some of whizli Le was free to confess he would not have the pour:ice to advance before iris own collAreeallon.

But at the speaker expressed his dual, a not to hare his remarks criticised, we shall pro coed to nitti t to lqe neht speaker of the evening, the Rec. Dr.'Perkins;for 'y ears a in;ol,,nary among the Nestorian', In the northern part of Penn, Mr. Perkins said that their work wee near the tile of what was once the Lowe of Zoroaster, the apostle of the lire worehippers.

Like the mighty iceberg, which though years, under the influence of the lathing sea, or, it Might be. occasional genial sunshine, had been gradually loosen ing, and nt last parted from Its mooringajti an instant so had this change been sudden and effective. This, he knew, was alone attributable to the moo of Goa. In conclusion, he commended the greateubject of mission. to the prayers of Gare.poopie. Earth and it• objects a ere transitory, but the cause of God was sta ble. 'The kingdom for which they were laboring was ete-nal, and every dollar contributed from the heart to its advancement would be transformed into eternal gold, Tha Rev. Dr. Pomeroy. of Boston, one of the secreta ries of the American Board. was next introduced by the chairman. There was only one aspect of this cause that he purposed to speak of at this time. One year ago to-day he had set sail for England. The Torkish Mis sion Aid Society had, while he was there, occupied moat of his labors, having in the course of a few months ad dressed one hundred thousand people with regard to it. A snort lectiiie on the peculiarities of John Mall was here indulged in, without any particular reference to the immediate object of the meeting. The major por tion of his sp eech was devoted to the efforts which - had been Made , and were making, in the rnited Kingdom. t introduce Christianity in the 'Turkish Empire. Ile was followed by other gentlemen Interested in Fo reign 51183i0113, and the proceedings, upon the whole, were of a highly interesting character. - PREMIERS AWARDED AT THE LATE. PAIR.—Ia examining the written list of premiums awarded by the State Agricultural Society at their Fair, held at Pomolton last week, we find that no less than three were awarded to Mr. John S. Clark, of this city, for several highly im proved Stoves which be exhibited. One of there was awarded for the celebrated Silver's Genuine Gas-burn ing Parlor Stove of Mr. Clark's manufacture, to which he has this season added several valuable improvements. These stoves are admirable for Parlor, Office, Chamber. or Dining-room use, and bare been demonstrated to rave about Sixty per cent, of fuel over any other stove in use. The improveMents are as follows: a Safety Self-acting Door, which effectually prevents explosion; a Betot. which obviates the difficulty heretofore encountered from the accumulation of ashes and cinders between the outer plate and the cylinder a east iron Mouth-owe, which is greatly more durable than the sheet-iron ones heretofore employed; a patent Ventilator at the top of the Stove, which mat once a waiter of convenience and ornament, and his admirable new style of knobs, by which the draw is regulated. Another premium wee ob tained on his Otui-burning Cooking Stores, which hare become deservedly popular for their many excellent Qualities, and still another premium was awarded on hie new patent Comet Kitchen Range. Ws are happy to know that these premiums evince but a lust approscia tion of merit on the part of the judges, and would re commend all who are in want of a good Stove or Range. to call on Mr. Clark, whose wararoona, at n. 1A) Mar ket street, present at this time a busy scene, suggestive in no mean degree of his liberal mode of doing beeiteia. THE CHINA AND QUEENSWARE BUSINERS.—rpon inquiry among the various branches of the jobbinz trade in this cut), we learn that in no department hoe the season's business been more flattering than in that of China and general Queensware. Of a Siti4loholl343 on Fourth.street—that of Messrs. Turnbull, Allen. & Co-. Nos. 23 and 25—lee learn that their trade this fall has been unprecedented. This (act is mainly owing to the admirnble stocks in this line, which l'luladelphia was this season prepared to oder. In the early part of the season we saw in the extensit e house shore named, an immense stook, filling five large stories and a basement, all of their own direct importation, and notwithatandini the drafts which have been made upon it, their ware rooms stall present a plethoric appearance, a large pro- portion of which will no doubt yet be exhausted tivdi the near trade. The Pittsburg Glass Agency of this es liblislitnent is an important feature and should not be lost sight of by buyers coming to this rrarket.
