Cie ;BMW ,Morning post. THOS. PHILLIPS t WM. H. SMITH, EDITORS. PITTSBURCIFI, SATURDAY, JANUARY II FOR MAYOR, HENRY S. MAGRAW. LEOMATURC—We learn from Harrisburgh that Findley Patterson was elected Speaker on the first hal lot; The vote was, 'Patterson 49, Trego (whig) 38, Timmer (native)7. We are especially pleased with theelection of Mr Patterson; it is a just compliment to Ids abilities as a legislator, and his sound democratic principles. His name was suggested in our paper shortly after the October elecrion,as a suitable person Tor the office, and we are gratified to perceive that his Worth was so well known - ae to secure his election so 'harmoniously. The democratic members had fixed upon Tuesday evening, to nominate a candidate for Clerk. In the Senate,W P Wtt.cox was ie•elected Spea ker. The vete stood, Wilcox 22, Darsie 5, scatter ing 2. After the organization of the Senate, Mr DAME presented a bill fur resuming the Bearer Division of the Pa. Canal, which is now in the possession of the Erie Company. ,It wou2 have been much better if Mr Darsie had pursued this course at the time this valuable portion of our public works was given away. Hewitt, 3:IEITIN o.—We see a call in the Ameri van of yesterday, for a meeting of the friends of Mr Howard in the Firth Wald, this evening. Aa an inducement for the public to attend, the call states diatMoses Hampton, E3q,will be presemand address the meeting. We believe Mr Hampton is an elder era Christian Church, end we think this would be a favorable opportunity for him to explain to the public, why the whig Convention that nominated Mr Hewatcl neglected to pledge the party audits candidate to the support of our Bible and our Flag." They took -strong ground in favor of the Bible at the Governor's election, and because the democrats did not choose to make the "holy book a cause of unholy strife," they accused our candidates of having taken an "infidel" position on the subject. The public now desire to know the position the wisig party, or at least the whig candi date for the Mayoralty, occupies on the Bible question. Theconventiou that nominated hint did not define h; the organs of the party will not trey any thing about it ; and many pious citizens begin to apprehend that iris not much better than the "infidel plan" charged upon the derafxratic candidates before the election. It iriii, therefore, be a great favor to the public if Mr Hampton in his speech to-morrow evening, would de ftrie Mr. Howard's past and present position cn this interesting subject. MAYOR HAT.—This functionary, in his letter of.jan ustry 6, announcing himself a candidate fur Mayor, says that be "has just received" the request to take the field. This rather surprised ns, for we had heard of tria.papens having been circulating for signature sever ,alstectits ago, and wondered how they could have been so long in reaching the Mayor. And this was the more curious,because, we are told that the papers were car ried about principally by the police appointed by Mr. HAT himself. The compensating process carried on in the Mayor's Office for some years may be thus giv en—it seems so far quite as good as REDEFFEK'S per petual motion—but,like that famous humbug.must ex plode, because the wire-workers are discovered. The plea is To elect HAY Mayor; To appoint more officer.; To carry round papers; ' To get mere voters; To elect HAY Mayor; To appoint more officers; ;:. To carry round paper.l To get more voters; To elect HAT Mayor; To appoint more officers; And so on - to the end of the chapter, which will be vn the 14th inst. ABOUT a "Txzar."—At one of the political meet ings, of our city, some time since, an active political partisan was nominated for the office of Constable.— He was not present himself, and bad gone to twd en tirely unconscious of the "high honors which awaited when he was disturbed bye loud krwrcking at his front door. With some difficulty, and in no very plea sant mood, he was aroused from his first sleep, and came down to see what was the matter. He opened 'the door, and was greeted by a score of ardent friends, who came to congratulate him on his success. He was duly thankful for the favor received and made the re iquisite pledges as to what his course would be, if elec ted. One of the party suggested that the fortunate rominee should "treat the company," at the house of one of :he gentlemen in the crowd. The candidate suggested his want of means, the chances that 56.74:„.14. not be elected, &c., and tried to ptitthilW arty promi singto do great things in that .11 if he should be elec ted. But it was all in v,sin. His friends muse have , tha."treat," and so et Win they went and took several , "drinks all round, antrbecame very warm in the condi • date's favor, end'certain of his success. At last the company begat) to disperse, and the landlord informed the eandidate the amount he expected from him.— "Never mica!" said the nominee, "It would not do for mete pay.you stall, for you see if I did, I would have to return you, when el am elected, for selling liquor withrnit license." -The'landlord, who had no license, stood aghast at the shrewd conduct of his guest, who • insisted that his refusal to pay proceeded from sheer kindness; but it is thought that the man ofglasses will sever again disturb a neighbor for the sake of getting - custom for his slmp. It is hard to say which was the more blameable, the plan taken to sell the liquor, or theplan taken to evade paying forit. A DESPERATE POLITICIAN.—An ardent, unflinch ing whig, who has been voting fur Ct. iv for 20 years, was talking yesterday about political prospects, and grew rather excited on the topic. He seemed to shit* that Cuar aught to •quit running for the Presidency.-- Some one remarked that CLAY would be the Whig candidate for President in HAS. "Very well," said the whig, growing animated—"Arthe man said to the anchor when he jumped overboard with it, ''l'll sink or swim with you," so will I sink or swim with gallant Nary." CLA r's chance of election, is about equal to . ths probability that an anchor will swim. Tar Tastirr.—The Gazette has net yet denounced Mr Pisseix nor his plan to "thlottlelthe Tariff." The eountry people want to know what the Gazette means. NIAGATAI.—WiIIie, who is good authority in all such matters, has the following about the pronunciation of this word "In talking to aVirginian, a member of Congress, a parvenu or a popular preacher, it isobeuer to use the most "Cambyses" itromusciation, calling Niagara Nia garr-a. In speaking to your cousin, your lever, your friend or yourfavorite peet,—in short, to any one who neither has astonished you, Der expects to be astonished back—say simply Ni-ag-ara, lilts common people." =MEE &russet NoTton.-4ho N Mirror is considered the organ of the "Upper Ten Thousand" of N York, or le other words of those who make it a business to ape the customs of the English aristocracy, and think They are pursuing pleas-lire. The Mirror proposes several itnprovemeots in the construction of the iris• tucratic fabric of America, ant absolutely comes out with this strange and (to the g upper ten thousand") startling idea: "We wish that common sense could be made fishiunable among as.' If the Mirror insists on this, the upper ten thousand will soon find another organ. The editor seems to think that common sense requires that invitations to parties should be sent by the penny post—and thaicard leaving should be trans ferred to the same medium. He thinks that late parties are an "insufferable nuisance," and that it is an out. rage on "common sense" to go to patties at eleven, because they do so in London. The fashionaMes of this country cannot, he says, like those of Eorepe, "sleep till noon," and therefore theyought to begin their revels earlier In the evening. If the reforms proposed are not adopted, the editor predicts thattbe "aristocracy tobe formed in this coun try, will be left exclusively to fools." This would be very melancholy certainly. but we question whether the Mirror can infuse sufficient "common sense" into the "upper ten thousand" to carry out its designs. By the way, it strikes us a little inconsistent, that the Mirror, which, a few days ago, was arguing in favor of a "promenade drive" and liveried 'servants for the New York aristocracy, because the English aristocra cy had these things, should now venture to recom mend a departuie from Englisk example in the mat ter of late parties," Stc. But then, the Mirror wants to make a peculiar aristocracy, and to "compound it of good element s in the beginning." We are afraid be will not succeed in getting enough of that excellent "element," common sense, into the lump to leaven it properly. EIGHTH OE JANUARY CELEBRATION. According to arrangement a large and respectable number of the citizens of Pittsburgh and vicinity, as sembled for the purpose of celebrating the Memora bly Glorious Eighth of January, at Mr Miller's Man sion House.
