Ihe editor has learned wisdom by expetience (a dear school, it is said) and after laboring for the pro_ act iptiie faction for a year, he is compelled to consign them to the tomb of the Capulets, to save himself from the rein that must sooner or later follow a Ulliol3 with men entertaining the principles they do. The sixty-nine natives of Pittsburgh are now without as organ, and we think their chance for ever having another is exiremely doubtful. Pittsburgh is not the soil in whirh each illiberality can flourish, and although our Whig friends were disposed at first to take na tiVeilin into favor, yet a little consideration caused even them to revolt at its peace-destroying principles. It was left to the fostering care of its original projec- tors, and as Churches could nit he burnt with the same impunity in this City as in Philadelphia, the faction has expired from %sant of its natural sustenance.

A friend of ours, who since he came to years of di.:eretion, has been regarded as the "glass of fashion," (we are sorry that ho inclines too much to din "stumpy," to permit us to add, and the "mould of form.") has, ever since the fire, denied himself the pleasure of dressing in his usual style, and in compliment to those sA ho lest all their clothing by the conflagration, he wears apparel so shabby that we are certain the fire would not have burnt it if it had been in the unfortunate district. To one of his fashionable hnbits this is a great sac rifice, and we hope he may yet be rewarded by his country for his extraordinary r mpathy for The suffeter3. CHAIIGE AGAINST CAPTAIN VOORHEEs —The Washington Union in relation to the charge made against Captain Voorhees, of his having cruelly flogged sailors during the last cruize, aays:—.• Not the slightest complaint has been made by any ono of the Depart ment, of cruelty in any way by Captain Voorhees, whilst in command of the frigate Congress. This denial of the Union may be true, but it would be well for Capt. Voorhees' reputation as an officer, if he would refute the charges that were made in the Old Domini m and Madisonian. These charges were too circumstantial not to leave the impression on the public mind that he had treated the men under him with the greatest barbarity, and we do not believe that the impression can be rem .wed by any mere news paper contradiction. Let the Captain speak. RHODL DILAND LEGISLATURE.—This body was or ganized on Tuesday at Newport, and Chafes Jack son of f icially announced as Governor. George Rives and Joseph S Pitman were put in nomination for elerrk of the Senate. Mr Rives was elected by two majority. George G King of Ne wport, was elected speaker of the Howie of Representatives, and Thom• as A Jenek.es and Francis E Hoppin, clerks, without opposition. A letter in the Providence Gazette of I'Vedneadav evening, says: "The geestion of liberation will come up in the Assembly - to-day, and will probably be disposed of.— The Senate is Right; the House is doubtful, but we hope fur the best. Geo Jackson thinks our great ob ject will be accomplished; and so, I em told, does Senator Simmons—but others, and among them some of the knowing ones, think differently." Bosworth and Heath, con% icted of offences against the government of Rhode Island, while acting under the "People's Constitution," were sentenced on Mon day by the Supreme court sitting at Bristol; to impris onment in the county jail and committed. THE ILLINOIS CANAL LOAN. — The Journal of Commerce states on the authority of letters received by the Hibernia, that the foreign bond•holders approve the course of the Illinois Legislature in reference to the payment of interest on the State debt, and the completi,m of thelimis arid Michigan Canal. The money requisite to complete this treat work will be advanced as required. The first instalment of 123 per cent, is payable on tl:e 26th inst., the day before the election of the trustees, who are charged with the disbursement of the fund, and invested with the other functions which appertained to the old board ofCanal Commisioners, and in fact with all powers necessary toaecure the speedy completion of the Canal. MILANCHOLY SUICIDIS.—The New York Morning News states that a German named David Bemman, about 24 years ~f age, on Tuesday put himself under the medical treatment of Dr. Van Rothwick, who occu pied a room in the fifth story of the house, No. 233 - Broadway, to he cured of epileptic fits, to which de ceased had been sulject fur a long time.

Correspondence of the Morning Post. BRoot. FARM PH•t•trx, May 8, 1845. Gents:-14uive palmed through many strange scenes since I left the city of smoke, or rather the city of fire, as !t might well be called now. To detail ail the curiosities I have witnessed, to chronicle the new ideas I have stored away in my mental warehouse. would require a larger sheet of paper than the Post master would be willing to give at the ordinary rate of postage. I have made rapid travels from place to place, from city to city, from canal to railroad, and rt.il road to river my observations on men, and things must, of course, be superficial; I must ,judge every thing by first impressions, which my experience has proved to be generally deceptive. I know whom 1 like, and what I kchnire in scenery, &c.. but sketches of char acter, or descriptions of places cannot entertain the intelligent !ations of the Morning Post. The Pennsylvania improvements are truly magnifi cent, and serve to chew "what man ran do, what men dare do," when their energies are aroused by vaulting ambition, backed, of course, by dollars. But, with all their splendour, with all the neatness attempted on the packet boats and passenger cars, give me n good pair of legs, or a stage ceach, for comfort. I almost declare that I would rat her walk the towering , ghenies, than snake along at the old Dutch gait of 3 miles ao hour on the "raging canard," or run the risk of a broken neck or mangled body in the cars— though, indeed this latter is, in some respects, a corn- I Portable way of travelling.' One feels conscious of I going—gone; hardly fairly started till there. The eastern railroads are more commodious and pleasant than those of Pennaylsaiiin, arid the west, but why not lie so? the travel is so much greater. Have you ever arrived in a strange city, "solitary and alone," without a being whom you can call friend. If en, you may appreciate my feelings in Philadelphia It is a great and beautiful city; but, having no friends there I resolved to leave as soon as n sreambo.a could retry me in the direction of New York. In this latter city I remained three days, previous to my departure on a pleasure excursion for Boston and die earthly Paradise, Brook Farm Phalanx. I found it, in every respect, what I expected, the grand Lensotium Commune of this Western Hemisphere; a Macbeth cauldron into which a little of every thing, indigenous and exotic, to be found on this planet of outs. is concentrated. Here are congregated sirtnous men of every degree, in wild conflict with villains, high and low, degraded and respectable—from the genteel professional defrauder to the beggard inmate of the Tombs. What a school is New York for the student in pursuit of a knowledge of human character. I do not know that 1 present an appearance partic.. ularly verdant in the refined and intellectual cast, yet I the cab men of New York, and others, appeared to I know, by some kind of intuition, that I was not "a tin-1 tive here, not to the manner, born." Many attempts have beer made to impose upon me, but as I have a goodly share of that bet ter part of valor, I have thus fur escaped. There are thousands in this great city who are compelled, as it were, to resort to fraud, if not to actual outlawry. Fraud is a kind of a transition! between hard times and thieving. Mere picking pock eta is not the greatest evil a ith which the people of cities have to contend. No police bus ever yet, or / ever ran be organized to protect the public from the frauds of those who seek to take advantage of the ne. I cessities of others. I have learned nothing of the politics of the city, and of course can lay nothiog. This if what is called anniversary week in New York. A week of literary and religious festivals—a kind of intellectual gala week. Next week the anni versaries take place in Boston. There have been several conventions held in New Yen k within a few days past, some of which I attend ed. The ‘Vorkingmen met in Croton Hell on Mon day. The attendance was not very large frum the city, though a considerable number of strangers were present. Much good is expected to result from this movement. lhe organization of the working men of New England is powerFul--some great revolution in politics and society will follow their efforts. A ve: y prominent movement against capital punishment is now agitating the public mind—a convention of the friends of its abolition was held in Lyceum Building, on Monday night. The Abolitionists are to, or have. held a Convention, and the Infidel Convention is now in session, and has been since Sunday. I remained in Boston but a few moments on Tues day, waiting fur the Omnibus to take me to the Pha lanx. I walked through several streets, and was in troduced to several people, by my friend Mr Mac. dowel who is now engaged in perfecting the newly discovered science of Phonography, in company with Messrs Andrews & Boyle, the luttet of whom I found to be a perfect gentleman. They will no doubt visit Pittsburgh soon. I like the appearance of Bos ton; and I like the appearance of the people; Jail the cities I have ever been in (a considerable numbers, by the way,) give me Boston; and yet when I asked for the taty, Ido not know that I could tell. It appears to me to combine all the elegancies of other places without the drawbracks that make life tedious.— Such is my idea from the observations of n few hours. during which time I did n tolerably good business in the way of rambling. 1 This letter hastily travels over a vest extent of en nal, railroad and river; and may perhaps be too desul tory to be interesting; but you must excuse ii. Lot me now say something of Brcok Farm, tin , Association with which your readers are familiar.— The soil is poor, of course, and the climate unfavorn hle to agricultural pursuits; and though a blue streak comes over me when shivering with cold these May mornings, still 1 am delighted with the industry, re finement and indomitable enemy of the people. Pe cuniary they ore not yet easy, but independent—inter nally there is the greatest harmony. Difficulties have excited here; but all is now order. Education is here male the foundation of the mcvement; it is the pivot up on which every thing turns. Particularly am I pleased with the ladies of this Phalanx, end now, while I write this letter, I am most delightfully annoyed by a beautiful little Fourierite, thumping music from a Pi_ ano in the parlor adjoining the Library. Observe, Mr Compositor, I have come to the foot of the sheet: and must stop, though I could write about the beauties of Brook Farm till the crack of doom. J. D. T. *Of course our correspondent does not mean to as sert that getting a ''broken neck or a mangled body," is a "comfortable way of traveling." The New York Herald published a story that the ed itors of the U. S. Journal had been refused credit for a bill of type amounting to $l,OOO. The junicr of the Journal pronounces it a falsehood, and says it would be strange if they could not get credit for that amoun t when they have $B,OOO cash in the hands of their bank er, $B,OOO duo fur subscriptions, and a private fortune of $lO,OOO. With $B,OOO in cash and a private for of $lO.OOO. what on earth induced these men to go into the printing business? lar At the city election in W n n l as t Tuesday, the Democrats obtained a complete triumph. I.l"Three gentlemen who lost heavily by the fire, offer their names to the consideration of the Whig Convention, for nominations for comity offices. THE, OREGON .—The Vashington Union, in an arti cle on this subject contends, that "of the discoveries, settlements and agreements made since 1770, by all civilized nations, we have abundant and circumstantial proofs; and the United States need not fear to challenge investigation, either on account of their ow•n direct claims, or those derived from another nation." ORICGON.—Our neighbors, in Canada, are getting alarmed, lest the Oregon question should go isy defa ult. We cut the following, indicative of such fear, from the Kingston Gazelle, of the third of May, inst. "We learn from the United States papers that a large party of Emigrants have already started for the Oregon, and it is said that at least 1500 will cross the Rocky Mountains this summer. There can be no doubt whatever that these Emigrants receive assistance and encouragement from the United States Govern. ment, us our neighbors are very naturally desirous of having a good foothold in the country. -This was the plan adopted for the aquisition of Texas. And we may therefore rest assured that the most effectual way to defeat our scheming opponents will be to bring the boundary dispute, a final set tlement at once. A few years' delay will give the American Government advantages fur the acquisition of Territory, which would more than counterbalance the efforts of a large fleet and well disciplined army. We trust the British Government will urge a final de cision of the dispute immediately." J KS9 E E. Dow, editor of the United States Journal, is one of the sweetest, and withal most sensible (rare combinmion) poets in the countiy. The fulldwing is, we believe, his last effusion: "He that in the world mould rise, Must take the papers and ndvertise." CI'CuNN ELL ♦KD THE U. S.—We observe that the friends of Ireland throughout the whole Ugion, are con demning in the strongest Inngnege the speech made by Mr. O'Connell, at the Dublin Repeal Association, in which he promised that Ireland would aid in pul ling down the American Eagle if England would only giant her demand for a repeal of the legislative union. As a consequence of this ill-advised speech we observe that the Repeal Associations are dissolving their or ganizations. The following resolutions were adopted at a meeting of the Baltimore Association, held on 'he 71h inst. IVArrens. From the papers of our country it appears that Mr. O'Connell, at a meeting of the Loyal Nation ' al Repeal Association of Dublin, held at Conciliation Hull, has spoken in terms offensive to the feelings of Americans, we the avowed friends of Ireland, feel that I it is due to our American citizens to give them the free expression of our opinion in relation to the con duct of Mi. O'Connell,and to express in derided terms our sense of the indignity that he has offered, and our condemnation of the language employed. therefore, Resolved, That in the formation of the "Baltimore Repeal Association," the members of our Society were impelled by no other considerations than their innate love of justice, their sense of wrongs inflicted upon Ireland, their conviction of the justice of her demands, their admiral lot, of the peaceful means employed by the I Irish people to effect' heir regeneration, and their firm belief that their sympathy was extended to a people friendly in every relation,and devoid of hostility to the interests of our country. Resolved, That we have heard with revel the declaration from the lips of Mr. O'Connell, that he is prepared to lend his aid ir, the destruction of this cur happy Republic, that he is willing to assist in hurling the American Eagle from its highest flight, if England, the enemy of America and of Ireland, shall impose that as the condition of the segenerationuf his native land. Resolved. That we regard the expression of Mr. O'Connell as inbulting to the feelings of Americans, as a wanton display of hostility towards the interests of our country, and as calculated, if unrcbuked by the friends of Ireland in America, to subject them to the unmerited suspicion of their fellow cuuntrymen as men more alive to the welfare of Ireland than wedded in attachment to the honor, the fume, and the support of their country. Resolved, That as American citizens, whether by birth or by adoption, we feel ourselves bound by the ties of patriotism, by the solemn obligations of our oaths, by the blessings that se inherit and enjoy, to proclaim to the world our determination to preserve tif,ainta every foe this happiest of republics, and strike down the hand that would pluck a single feather from our noble bird, or retard the Eagle in his lcfty flight. Resolved, That if the language of Mr O'Connell be meunt as a stroke of policy to operate upon the Brit ish Ministry, in the opinion of this Association he has most signally failed in the expectation of converting a single enemy, while the imprudence and harshness of his tone have deprived him of many friends, who would have garved his country in the hour of her ad versity. Resolved, That whilst our sense of Ireland's wrongs remains unchanged, a proper regard for the feelings of our countrymen, a desire to plaee our patriotic devo- tion be2,ond the reach of suspicion, and a determina tion to exhibit to our citizens at large that we guard with fidelity and care the spotless character of Amer ica's fair fame, render it imperatively necessary that we should no longer continue an associated body, act ing apparently in concert with one whose langur,ge breathes such hostile feeling to the welfare of America. Resolved, That the Baltimore Repeal Association be now dissolved, and that the balance in the hands of the Treasurer, after the obligations of the Society shall have been met, be transferred to the treasury of , tho Hibernian Society, to be used fur the objects of that association. In speaking of this meeting the Baltimore Sun re marks: "Irish Americans, if we may so designate American citizens of Irish nativity, never since the dnys of the Revolution gave stronger evidence than this, of their lialty to the land of their adoption, and their love of its republican institutions. V% ho dues not know the strong hold which Daniel O'Connell, On the individual embodiment and powerful advocate of a cause dear to them, had upon their feelings and effectinns? Flow much of (Hence to this country have they not on that account forgiven him vviihin a few years past, even when the pardon was granted with ill-concealed re luctance- They bore, ns it were, upon their own shoulders the hurthen of his sins against their adopted, for the cake of their native country; but he made the load to heavy.when he came to threaten the American Eagle, and talk of aiding England to bring him down from his "highest flight.'' Irish American patriotism could hove patience no longer, and it repudiated Dan iel O'Connell! To any anything more about Irish Americans, in connection with this subject, would be a work of supererogation. ANTICIPATED FRENCH REVOLUTION An erudite correspondent of one of our exchanges, has discovered that a French Revolution must take place in 1845, and in proof of this, refers to History, which shows that every fifteen years some extraordina ry event has happened in that country. But we will let him speak for himself. Bonaparte commenced his military career in 1735, receiving a Lieutenant's commission in a regiment of artillery. After 15 years he entered upon his civil career in 1800. His civil and military career united. continued 15 years longer till his final downfall in 1815. He seized the consulship at the revolution in Paris Nov. 10, 1780, and Dec. 25, was chosen first Consul; but on the 19th Feb. 1800 he removed his quarters from Luxemburg to the 'collieries the usual residence of the French Kings. The occasion was invested with all the pomp and splendor the Capital at that time could array. The historian observes that "on that day. royalty was in truth enthroned in France. On the anniversary of his birthday (Aug 15, 1815,) Napoleon was on board the Northumberland 74, sailing for St. Helena. He had now completed 45 years of life, being three periods of tifteen years. France had the revolution in 1800—again in 1815—and again in 1830. when Lou is Phillippe came to the throne. Another period of fif teen years has elapsed when we look for the revolu tion of 1845. The principle of this most extraordinary cycle of fifteen yeas proceeds, it is not necessay here to mention. Suffice it to say, that the revolution herein indicated, will extend beyond the limits of France. From the New York Morning News LETTERS OF MARQUE. it is generally conceedecl that Abe only means by which Mexico, in case she obeys the call of a certain paper among us, and declares war, will have as a means of annoyance, only the right of granting letters of marque within her power. As she has no marine of her own, it becomes an interesting question bow far other nations may plunder ns under her authority. On this subject, Mattel, book 3d, chap 15 remarks as fol lows: "There is no doubt hut they (private persons) may with a safe conscience serve their century by fitting amt privateers, unless the war be evidently unjust.— But, on the contrary, foreigners taking commissions from a prince, to prey on a nation, absolutely innocent with respect to them, are guilty of an infamous practice. The thirst of gold is their only inducement, and how ever their commigerion may assure them impunity. it cannot wash away their execrable guilt. From this it would seem that our South American friends could legally turn their enterprise into the Mexican service by accepting commissions. The large English capitals which are now employed, accor ding to official information, in furtherance of the Brazil slave trade, may be occupied in the more laudable employment of pirating in Brazilian and Portuguese hands, on American commerce. Theexecrable "guilt" of the transaction will trouble them but little. In relation to the movements of Mexico, however, it may be well to recur to the existing treaty with that coun try, which, under date of 1331, provides as follows: ' Thirdly, If any of the articles contained in the present treaty shall be violated or infracted in any manner whatever, it is stipulated that neither of the contracting parties will order or authorise any acts of reprisal or declare war against the other, until the par ty considering itself offended shall have presented the other a statement of such injutlea and damages, and demanded justice and satisfaction, and the anme shall have been either refused or unreasonably delayed." Article 2fi, of the same treaty, provides that in ease of war, six months notice shall be given to merchants on the roast, and twelve months to those in the inte rior. Those provisions either mean something or nothing. Ifthey mean anything, the preliminary steps for a war have not yet been taken. What has Mexico dont? Her minister hes protested against our recog nition of the right of Texas to treat, and her govern ment issued a manifest , ' to the courts of Europe. Now, in March, 1822, the President of the United States issued a message, proposing the recognition of Mexico. The Spanish minister, Joaquin de Anduaga, made a protest, of which that of A linonte is nearly a cepy, substituting Texas for Mexico. John Q. Adams, ans wered the protest, stating— " Under these circumstances, the government of the United States, far front consulting the dictates of a policy questionable in its morality, yielded to an obli gallon of duty, of the highest order, by recognizing as independent States nations, which, after deliber ately asserting their right to that character, have main tained and established it against all resistance which had been, or could he brought to oppose it." This was said in behalf of that Mexi •o which now seeks to domineer over Texas. the position of which is stronger than her's was. The Spanish government then issued a manifesto to the governments of Europe, precisely like that which Mexico has lately issued to the same powers. The Spanish protest contained the following clause: "But the governments fortunately know, by a sad experience, the effects which are produced by a simi lar overthrow of principles. They foresee the conse quence of its propagation, not less fatal to legitimate governments, than to the integrity of nations, and are well aware of the consequences to Europe of sanction ing in America. as some pretend, the undefined right of insurrection." All this gasconade ended in the recognition of Mex ico. The rulers of Mexice are now, true to their par ' entage, playing off the same vapors upon the United States. Is it not a little curious that in this age of the world, a few renegade Spaniards, half-castes, and Indians, should be claiming authority over an inde pendent Anglo-Saxon nation? Fora pretended wrong they claim to let loose the plunderers of all nations upon our commerce. God forbid the occurrence of such an unhappy necessity; but if Mexico should rush madly and wrongfully upon such a resort of war, hu manity and policy will combine in imposing on our government the duty of crushing it at once in the bud. by a force against which resistance should not even be attempted One of the very best epigrams which has ever been produced in the English language, is the following, made by Warren Hastings, after he hail been som• ten years the victim of Burke's withering prosecution: 'Tit oft asserted, that on Irish gtound A poisonous reptile never yet was found; Revealed the reaaon stands of Nature's work— She spared her venom to create a Burke!
