It has all along seemed strange to us that the capitalista and business-men of Phila delphia, have paid so little attention to the buainess created by the recent oil discove ries in Western Pennsylvania. New York capitalists were early in the field, and have reaped a great benefit. The manufacturers .btPii.tsbiirgh, especially, and all branches of trade incidentally, have for the past six months, here, been greatly benefited liy the business created by the discovery of the oil. Philadelphia still appeals to have a jrery imperfect idea of the extent of this trade, and of the great variety of articles which it requires, in steam engines alone, the oil region has already contributed hun dreds of thousands of dollars to the manu facturing interests of our city. Pumps, Copper pipe, tools for boring, and all the articles requisite for the sustenance, not only of oil men themselves, but of a large number of mechanics, who get constant and remunerative employment in the oil region, are constantly required Such has been the sudden influx of popula tion into the region of the oil discoveries in Pennsylvania, that settlements and flourishing towns are springing up with marvellous raphi ity. At Titusville, where much of tho busi ness centres, there is a demand for brick ms. kers, and the C iazetie , of that place, estimates that from a million to ono and a half millions of bricks will be wanted there during tbe-um mer. Parties are now bringing brick from Meadvilio at a cost of s2h per 1000. Hern is a noble opening for the brickmakera of PtnU delphia, who produce a far bettor article than can be obtained any whero else in the I nion. We have abundance of the very best of clay, and turn out bricks cheap enough to be able to BUpply the whole oil region. This can be done by way of the Pennsylvania Railroad to Pittsburgh, and by steamboats thence up the Allegheny river. The mechanics and manu facturers of Pittsburgh have been doing a large business In furni.bing supplies for the oil re gion, but there are mauy articles which they cannot furnish as well as Philadelphia Our bricks are prelnrrcd everywhere for their den- I rity and tine cob r. and would sell readily in | Western Pennsylvania We must again call ! the attention of our business men generally to ; the growing importance of this oil distnoi. Millions ot capital are being invested there, and the activity resembles that in some of the new gold regions of the Pacific. Yet the whole district was a wilderness, and they want yearly everything—railroads, common roads, machinery, good hotels, and in fact all the im provements of progressive civilisation. Here are new markets for our merchandise and manufactures, openings for professional men and men of enterprise generally. Let us not neglect the opportunity. Now we protest aguinst these bricks. All Allegheny connly, all along the banks Of_the Allegheny river, bricks are made in large quantities, as cheap ami as good as Philadelphia bricks. We can send them j up the Allegheny river without paying i freight for them over the Pennsylvania Railroad. For Philadelphia to send bricks out here as an article of export to the oil ; region would bo very much like “sending | coal to New Castle. ’’ The editor of theWorf/,! American appears to be mainly ignorant of' the trade of the Allegheny river, and the ! resources of the region along its banks* t One thing it certainly produces “in quanti ties, of quality, and at prices to suit the pur chaser,” and that thing is bricks. We hope the staid editor of the Aur// Atnertcjyi had not an accidental “ brick in his hat " when he wrote the above article. Kvidently he is not posted on the brick question. The ‘-‘density and fine color” of Philadelphia bricks may be all very well in its place, but to the oil men, it would make little differ ence whether the bricks which they use in 1 putting up their engines are “red, white or I blue.” i What the North American B ays about the “growing importance of this oil district,” is, however, all very true. The oil business is developing, with surprising, rapidity the resources of a vast region of country, and we re-echo the appeal to Philadelphians, “not to neglect the opportunity.” Let them “pitch in like bricks” and share the bene fits of the increased trade which has already grown up, and not let New York and her enterprising capitalists take the whole of that portion of it which is susceptible of being diverted from our own city of Pittsburgh. SPANISH INTRIGUES IN SAINT DOMINGO, It appears by reoent advices from Hayli, that it is true that an attempt has been made on the part of Spain to seize the Island of St. Domingo. This high handed and outrageous conduct of the Spanish gov ernment may lead to serious complication between this country and Spain. It is annoonoed from Washington that the Administration are in full possession of all the particulars of the recent action of Spain, and it isvery evident that .the new Secretary j State intends to take the necessary steps in this matter, and will immediately call the attention of the Spanish Government to _ Sere is another embarrassing difficulty which must he met and disposed of. The proceedings under the auspices of the Spanish government upon the Island of St. Domingo have produced a deep sen sation in administration circles. It i 8 expected that the Secretary of State will immediately address an energetic protest to the Spanish government. This is all the federal power will be able to do in its pres ent crippled condition. Btrange to say, the prospect of trouble with a European power is hailed with any thing but regret by many public men. They assert that a war with a foreign power would be a perfect godsend in the present danger of civil strife, as it would at once revive the national sentiment in the South, allay the secession fever, and in the end result in a reconsolidation of the country. WHISKY INSPECTOR. The Bepublican Legislature desirous of hav ing an office or two more in Pittsburgh have passed or are about to pass an act creating an offloe of Whisky Inspector at Pittsburgh. The Baptibliean councils of Pittsburgh have passed a preamble and resolutions protesting against said aot, and requesting the Governor, if it has passed or shall hereafter pass, to veto it. What’s up ? A veto on a Bepublican office, Ob I what will Andrew say to this ? y/ »- - ’ ■ ~ ■ l f,ll ■ ' . • V.* 1 m/j A•/ COUNTY REFORM. In view of the persistent efforts, made by certain unscrupulous parties—interested in the perpetuation of the present wretched management of onr County finances, to convince the public that our Pittsburgh plan of collecting taxes had failed of ita purpose, we some time since prepared a table embracing the assessments, collections, date of payment, exonerations and cost of collec ting, on city taxes for the last three years under the old, and the first three under the new system. APRIL 4. This table taken carefully from the pub lic records,demonstrates that in all the three elements of prompt, cheap and thorn yh collec tious, the new sysy>m immeasurably excels the old. We now collect our taxes much cheaper, much earlier, and our lost taxes are much loss than formerly. This table we may yel publish, and will show the operation of our financial system for a series ol years. But as objection might be made toil, that in some years, collections are more easily made than in others, —a fact which we believe, however, would make to the credit of the new system, we have made a comparison of the new system for the year IR6O, in the nine wards of the city. The County, State and Military tax, are col lected by collectors. The City and Water taxes are paid voluntarily by the citizens at the Treasurer’s office. Here are the the figures: I ouoty, State and Military taxes assessed in the cine Wards SKI3J??4 4v to Treasurer before Not. 1, by the coBK misaioner'a colieo.or Uncollected (.nearly four-filthoof the whole. |10&3L0 ;tf VHJ Water taxed aateased in the nine tl.M.uW ..- t a U - o City 1 remuier brMre Not 1, by Uie Ux payer* directly I flfvileeu?d i Out a fraction ov«r ooe-f ciriii oft he whole i Here we have the 4guren showing ineonte*- tihly, tiie advantage of the new system; and while we are willing to excuse the assertions to the contrary, so industriously made by Mr. David L.

For 1869, I received warrants from the County Commissioners for $1,760 BJ, some of which were disposed of at a heavy discount; and for 1860, I received warrants for Jl,BVj 16, which amount was paid very promptly by the present Treasurer, on presentation.

Nkw Lisbon, Ohio, April 2, 1861, Mr. Editor—Dear Sir : —ln the last num. ber of tbe weekly, you requested some infor. mation concerning the crops of grain and fruit. Our grain prospects at this timo aro by no means flattering, on account of tho hard freezing in March, which has frozen out and destroyed a great deal of tbe wheat on the low lands. From the present indication there won’t be more than a half crop. Tho poaches and cherries aro all killed, and a lerge portion ot tho apples. The warm weather in Febru ary and the fore part of March caused the buds to put out and the hard freezing since that has killed the buds. Oil prospects in our section, in seme places, are very good. There aro several companies formed on two branches of Beaver creek. A company has been formed at Fredericktown, and one at TVilliamsport. Tho TYilliamspori company are preparing to put down a well. They have strong surface indication. Oil in considerable quantities has shown itself cn top of the ground. Several other compa nies have been formed at West Pointand Elk ton, and all are sanguine of success. Bespectfully yours, B.

Letters from some of the most substantial men of the county have. 1 ehn received in favor of the passage of the bill introduced by Mr. Burns, containing but three sections, whioh will fully carry out the expressed il >sire of the people, Mr. Burns, I rogret to say,has turned tail to .the farmers and others whom he was in duty bound to susiain. He has gone round with William*,to make tbo county treasury support a city official elected by the citizens to do city work, having nothing to do with the t&xables of the county; nor should those living outside of tbe cilia* be made to pay tribute to support and suit&in men elected by city taxable* only. We have come to a pretty pass when members of the Legfblature, owning real estate in the cities,can compel the country people to assist them in the payment of their city officers. Mr. Williams is playing sharp on the taxa ble, ho desires to keep himself clear of tbe payment of city taxes, and heap the burden on those having nothing to do with the mat ter. To better blind the farmers and others he appropriates two sections of a correct re* form bill, somewhat mutilated, and to this he attaches his objectionable matter to make his bill of abominations palatable This trickery of Lhe c.-uniy reform will not suit the tsßtcs of the unsuspecting farmers and mechanics, who live r<im</to from city inlluence and are not up to the tricks of men who are bent 9H plundering them, to better serve their own selfish ends and penurtous disposition. r - William® has succeeded most admirably in getting the county officers in jail, but he has nd remedy to get them out. Will he take their place and let them come here next year, and we will see then if they would not better serve the intere-U of tbe whole people, in place of playing into the bands of the few. Will Mr. Williams change places with the Commissioners'' lie can then be a better judge of freedom.

(he Duchess of Kent The Africa brings us inleJligonco ol tbe donlh, on tb« lfiih of March, of ihe Duchess <'f Kent, the mother of the Queen of Kokand. For a long timo the late Ditchers had boon af flicted will, a cancer, which was the immedi ate cause of her death. Since the accession of her daughter to the proudest throne of Ku rote she Lad remained a residont either at Windsor Castle with the Quoen, or at Frog more, a mansion of her own, a mile or two distant from the castle, whither the Queon went almost daily to visit her. The late Duchess had attained a venerable age. iihe was a princess of the house of Saxe Saalfeld-Coburg, was born on the 17th of Au gust, 1780, and was baptized under the names of Marie Douiso Victoria. Hho was, at an early Age, married to Pricco lienry, of Lein tngtn, who, dying, left her a blooming young widow in 1814. A year or set later she attract ed the attention of Edward, Duke of Kent, tho fourth son of George 111, and was married to him in Condon on the 11th of July, ISIS Hut the married liie of the new DuebiLss was but short; for in less than two years the Duke of Kent diod, and she was again a widow with ono child—tho Princess (now Queen) Victoria. At that time the accession of this little child to the British throne Beemed but a remote con tingency. George 111, out lived his son, tho Prince of Wales, while Georgo IV. and Wil liam JV., his other sons, who reigned after him, both died without issue; thus the issue of the next brother, tho debased Duke of Kent, became heir to the British tbrono. As soon as this contingency gradually resolved itself into a probability and then a certainty, the Duchess of Kent devoled her time to fitting her daughter for the high station she was called upon to occupy. A tirm and consistent Protestant, she taught the young Princess a veneration of that religion as expressed in tho Church of England? Mental and personal j accomplishments were carefully attended to, as I well as physical requirements. The daughter I throve under such judicious treatment, and the mother bad the satisfaction of attending the coronation and the marriage of her child, of seeing her the mother of a large family’ and of knowing that her throne was built upon the hearts of loving subjects. r The life of the Duchess of Kent, quiet and unostentatious was so identified with that of the present Queen, that thero is Mule to say of her otherwise. Her death will place in mournihg most of the reigning families of Eu rope, while at the English oourt there can be little doubt but that the official trappings of woe will this time represent—whal they sel. I dom do in oourt circles—the honest and unaf<! footed grief of the wearers. It may be that this Is the first serious bereavement Queen Victoria has ever eiperieaced. Her father died before she was did enough to know him, and she fa as never lost a child. An only child herself, she had never a brother, or bister to lose or mourn for, and thus the present be« res vemhpt ft Bit be peculiarly effibtln§4o her. #• ; j *> * ' ’ “Blynnka” In Washington. who is an applicant for the Nash vilie Post Office, infrletter written fromWash lngton to the Nashville Patriot, thus ijhowsiip the economy of the Federal Government: The vf&y the government gets its wi>rk done is curioas.

As there are, to my certain k owledge, in this city numerous sutler* rs trom the delect of be»r and sight who s'r-J in need of my prof'seional servic*-s, and who drfer calling until they r*»e that a complete cure is tf feoted on some of th-«r fnends or acquittances who are under my treatment, forgetting at the same tune that their cases may be entire'y different, and conse quently not require the same treatment, or should a protracted one oe necessary, it will then not be more In mv power to undertake their esses at all. Tnere are also many who have been tempered with by pretenders, anu have, therefore, lost all faith and hope that there is even a probability of obtaining relief from ifnir aiirmnts, no* making any allowance that it is to the want of proper treatment they owe the<rsuOer mgs. To all those 1 am desirous of pointing out first, the testimonials 1 published here from acme of the moat influential citizens of the United S au-a ought to satisfy the moat doubting minds; secondly, the Kulo gmm bestowed on me by the press, wotUd of iiseif be a sufficient recommendation, and above ad, it is with no small gratification and pleasure that l can refer to par ties in this city who testify to the suooess of my treat ment, and the great benefit they have derived there from, and I aval. mjself of this oppi-nuaitr of assuring those who intend consulting me that they will always rece.ve from me a candid opinion as to the state of their malady, and without miapting to at charlatan phrase, guarantee of cure, (which no conscientious physician would do). 1 will endeavor to use my utmost ability to effect a cure where there is a chance of doing so, vr'.ere ’here is none 1 never hesitate of giving my decided opinion. The years of study and labor 1 have devoted to aural and apthaimic diseases, and the great, experience I have h*«i in Europe ana in the United States, warrants me without fear of contradiction, to as sert that there is no one in the United Stales belter qualified to give a more reliable opinion than myself.— and in conclusion 1 beg to sta e that those who are eurtenog from tbe Diseases oi iar and Eye, should not loose th s opportuni.y, and as my stay is necessarily limited, not to loos* any time in order to haye the full benefit during my siay, as it will be totally impossible for me to undertake any case after the first of M»y wrere a lengthening treatment and my persooal teudance wilfi.-e neceawy. 1* A. \oN MOsCHZIiK MR, Qcu'iftt and Aunst, mtiAH. 155 ’| j, Jr j girec^ MV STRAW UOUDd, Whilo ami Coloied Leghtrn and Straw .Hats tat Chil dreu aDd Misses, Embroideries and Trimmings c f the latest styles and IQ great variety.
