Mr. Editor: You will perceive by the Pittsburg and Greensburg papers that the Books of the Youghiogheny Navigation Company are to open, to re ceive subscription of stork to that im provement, as far upas West Newton, which the coal mines on that stream a Jone will justify the improvement. Now, sir, permit me to. suggest to the people of your Town and the country a long the toad leading to Cumberland, the expediency of at once contributing to re pair it, to make it passable for staging and lvagons. This can only be done by do nations of your People, along the line, and would richly repay them back by the iaunensc travel that it would bring on the road, it beVnc route so " much less moun lauious than the natioual; about the same distance from Cumberland to West New ton as it is to Brownsville, and 21 miles less to Pittsburg from the former than the latter place, which would be considerable in carrying passengers and mails, that nvith the difference in grade and the price of feed would certainly draw the travel from the national on to your road. We can have a daily Line of Boats or more from Pittsburg to our place, which they make the distance ia about two hours, when the improvement is made. This - together -vr'uk advantage of the Turnpike which is in very good repair under the efficient management of the sequestrators from our place to Somerset, would be in luceracHt:Suflicient to induce stages and ivagvms to fill up the road, if you can get your cross road in repair. This ought to impress the minds of the citizens alon ahe line the more forcibly at this timc, owing to the policy that the Baltimore and Ohio Rail road intends to pursue, by their adopUsg the Wheeling terminus; they trill hare 310 miles of road to construct, "winch if it should take them as long to !ui!d as the 181 they have already done, - say nothing of the mountains and ridges they have to rlimb and tunnel in the Utter thev had not in the former, nor of their exhausted means depending solely on the o million bonds of an uncertain interest paying stale, which alone depends their vitality and taking, most favourable dis posal of their bonds, they do not more than get to their own State'line, while the jrejudices of the -Canal along the line vill go for putting down the bonds.

Col. CV'irad M.

ItesolccJ, That believing as we do, we would respectfully recommend and strongly urge upon the people of the south'" of the county, and particularly to the citizens Of this 'valley, to raise a small sum of money by subscription for the purnDse of employing a suitable person or persons to explore, im.ke searches, ana tliscovcncs IJnif-vnniic ( ipnrlirh rjl'lfin fl kill I 1 M . 1 & iiiiw aww - O " country.

HrsoheJ, That said managers are to call a meeting monthly, if so often re queued, and make a full report to the same, of all the monies received, asd how much expended, and their progress in making discoveries in said minerals, and also of the most appropriate sites for erecting a Furnace, Forge, &c. After the said, report was read, it was unanimously adopSfd by the said meeting, and in pursuance of the 4th resolution the following pc-rsons were selected as a board of managers: William Miller, Gil lian C. Lint, Esq., Peter Meyers, Jonas Ivcini and Daniel Miller, Sr. A subscription list was then opened, Bnd many persons came forward to ai-d liberally in the matter. On motion of William Meyers it was resolved that the proceedings of this meet ing be signed by the of.icers and publish ed in those papers of ih"t3 county, friend ly to the object in view. " JOST J.

A correspondent of the Baltimore A mcriean, writing from Kuightslowu, In diana, under date of the 25ih instant, re lates the following: "Last night, as Messrs. Welch & Del- avail' Circus Company were performing at tins piace, a tremendous hurricane passed us, tnset their canvass tent, and tore parts ol it to atoms. At 'he time it occurred, Mr. Levi North, a well known equestrian, was going through his favor ite four horse act, when the horses took fright, nwd threw him on the planks in the ring, dashing his brains out, tnd kil ling him instantly. The ring-master was run over by some of the horses, and had one of his arms broken and was other- wise injured, but it is thought not danger- ously. Several others of the company were hurl, and among the spectators two women and a child were killed instantly and several others more or less hurt. The Mor.n lastcu only a lew minutes and tie- yasted a space of a half mile wide, blow ing (.own buiUhngs and killing several persons in the country. The destruction to timber, horses, cattle, sheep, crops, &c. is immense. Heavy Loss. It is estimated that the losses by plunder of the United States trains in Mexico, amount to $5,000,000. This is certainly a large amount. From all the published accounts, we had sup posed that -$2,000,000 would cover this business of the rancberos and guerrillas. Char. News. .A THRILLING INCIDENT. The New York Express narrates the following intercsrtmg incideatiu connexion with the conflagration of Mr. Kirkman's establishment in Catharine street;., -oa Thursday evening: cSo sudden and quick was the" spread of the flames that Mr. K and his "family came very near being destroyed by them. One of his daughters. Miss Margaret Kirkman, a young lady -of about nineteen years of age, only escaped, after being severely burnt, by jumping from ihe fourth story front window of the room in which she slept. Tt was for some mo ments a scene of the most, thrilling xmd agonizing interest to those who hail as sembled in front' of the burning building. The fourth story, though even, with the rest of the edeiice, has very small attic windows. Atone of these Miss K. ap peared, shrieking in alarm, the fire evi dently behind Irer, and the smke pour ing out over her head no ladders had yet arrived, and her destruction .see-med inevitable she tried at first to escape the flames, by which she had been already severely burnt, got out on the sill of the window, but it was evident she must soon perish there, and the cry was raised for her to jump; other voices, among wliich, by this time, was that of her father, ' ex claiming "not yet, wait a moment till we ret ready for you." A feather bed was instantly procured, held about three feet from the ground by six gallant hearts, who were in great jeopardy that she might fall upon and injure one or more of them, but they heeded not and eared not for that. By this time Miss Kirkman, to escape from the smoke and flames, was then compelled to let herself down, and was seen hanging by her extended arms from the window. . "Jump now,' was the cry. Vast numbers of persons had now as sembled, and were lookers on the agoni : zing scene. The yousg ladv soon let go her hold from that dizzy height of up ward of fifty feet, and in an instant was whirled toward the -side walk. The heart of every person in the vast multitude started in thrilling emotion and stvspense, doubtful as to her fate In a few moments the cry was raised -"she is safe," and three hearty cheers went up, which made the very welkin ring. FROM THE RIO GRANDE. Tiie New Orleans papers bring us ac counts from Matamoras of the 18th ulL, by which it appears that a most lament able state of things exists along the route to Monterey, for want of a proper force on the road, and that the Mexicans are robbing and slaughtering without restraint every thing and every body hat is not strongly protected by a suitable escort. It also appears that the heavy trains have been halted by order of Gen. Tay lor, which the Matamoras Flag attributes to the fact that all idea has been aban doned of that army advancing towards San Luis. The following is the Flag's paragraph on the subject: "Halting the Txaixs By an arri val yesterday from Camargo, we are in formed that an order hal heen received 1 here from Gen. Taylor, directing a halt of the heavy wagon traics which were be ing got ready for Monterey, and which it was supposed were intended ibr the march tipon San Luis. We cannot learn whether the dangers of the road or a final resolve not lo make ativ further advance with the army has induced this orders but from other circumstances, we judge the latter cause to have dictated it." The subjoined paragraph from the Pic ayune, confirms the views of the Flag that the advance upon San Luis is to be abandoned: 'Diversion of Troops. We have a letter from the Brasos, dated the 18th instant, mentioning the rumors as current that Gen. Hopping might shortly be ex pected there, with a considerable body of troops, to embark lor Vera lruz. It is quite sure that such troops as Gen. Tay lor can spare, now that the advance upon San Luis Potosi is definitively abandoned will verv shortly embark from the Rio Grande for Vcia Cruz. It is altogether probable that several general officers will be detached from Gen. Taylor's column PniT lo U1C ln,e lro,n era Ortiz, liul a IalIe lime fpse, we trust, before . ,t i- f -Xf St communications will be entirely re-estab lished between Vera Cruz and the capi LATEST FROM TAMPICO.. TAxnco, August 17, 1817. In this place, Tamp ico, there are hour ly reports of large forces being in the rear of the town. At one lime vou will hear that Urrea is in its vicinity, at the head of three thousand men; ao-ain, some other ' general is preparing an attack; but little heed, however, seems to 'be placed in them, as the oflicers in command arc well 'prepared for such an event, although our j forces are small. Yesterday wehada regiment parade. Col D T?iivL- in. spected the troops, who seem to be well disciplined. I was sorry to sec the Lou isiana regiment, which "he commands who left your city about a thousand strong not have more than two hundred men on the plaza, and, by appearances, many of thcai scarcely fit for duty. What a pity to see so fine a'body of men cut off in so short a lime, without having an op portunity to take part against the enemies of their country. The war lias been the cause of the death of hundreds, but dis ease of various descriptions has slain its thousands. . . . . .J This morning at about five o'clock, Second Lieut.

There is a well known custom prevailing in our crtEiinal courts of assigning counsel to such pris oners as have no one to defend them. On one occasion the Court finding a man accused of theft and -without counsel said to a hxwyer who -was present: ' "Mr. , please to withdraw with the prisoner; confer with him, and then give him such counsel as may be best for his interest." The lawyer and his client then with drew, and in fifteen or twenty minutes the lawyer returned into Court. "Where is the prisoner!" asked the Court. "He is gone, your honor," said the hopeful legal limb. "Your honor told me to give him the best ad vice for his inter est; and, as he said he was guilty, I ihought the best counsel I could offer him was to cut .and run,' which he took at once." RETURN OF GEN. KE ARNEY. A Telegraphic despatch from Cincin nati states that Gen. Kearney, late Gov ernor of California, arrived at St. Louis on Wednesday last, lie left California on the 18th of June at which lime every thing was quiet. CoL Mason was left in command. A large fleet was off the coast, consisting of the Columbus, Com. Biddle, the frigate Congress, sloops Portsmouth, Dale, and Warren, and storeships Lexington and Erie- . Col. Fremont, heing tinder arrest, and ordered home for trial, left California with his party about the same time Geu. Kearney did. and was but a short distance in his rear dnri-ng the entire journey. He reached Fort Leavenworth before the GcneraT-s departure for St. Louis. No thing has yet transpired as to the specific nature of the charges against Colonel Fremont. Nat. Int. C7"The Pottstown Ledger wishes to know who informs the Village Record that Judge Lougstreth, the "locofoco can xlidaie for Canal Commissioner, is op posed to the Mexican war? We can on ly say that it is commonly reported that as he is of the Christian denomination of Friends, that therefore he is opposed to it as well as on account of the unpar donable blunders of Mr. Polk which brought it on. It is common report, and have not seen anv denial from the we Judge himself or any of his friends au thorised to speak for him. In that re spect, then, the Judge is no hetter than a "Mexican Whig" and according to our neighbor of the Republican, is morally a traitor to his country. And yet the Re publican supports the man! Record. Village A Mince Pie Case. A cook of a ship lately brought action in Boston against the second mate for handcuffing and a husing him during the voyage. It appears that the cook was ordered by the chief mate to make a pie of stewed' dried ap ples and salt junk, minced fine; which he positively refused, to do, having a due re gard for his profession, and i nested that it could not be made without green ap ples. The defendant was discharged, however, as he acted under the orders of his superior officer, and the question is therefore still an open one: "Can a mince pie he made with stewed green apples and salt junk!" -MONGRELS." The Washington Union denounces the "Democrats" that participated in the late Taylor meeting at llarrisburg, as "wirm greh" and declares them to be 4unsound It will be remembered that Judge Buch er, Judge Lewis, Hon. Simon Cameron, James . Peacock, Esq., Hon.. William Dock and other prominent men in the Locofoco ranks took part in said meet - ing. How those gentlemen will relish this kind of "Jlatlerj" remains to be seen. It will, we opine, scarcely "bring them back into the fold." Lane. Trib. Baron Lionel de Rothschild and Lord John Russel, are elected to the House of Commons by the citv of London.
