Never believe it possible that any natural or improved ability can . alaim immunity from the companion ship of the steady, plain hard-working qualities, and hope. to gain its end. There is no such thing as such fulfill ment on this earth, libme happy talent and some tortunate opportunity may form the two sides of the ladder on which some men mount, bat the rounds of that ladder must he Made of stuff to stand wear and tear, and there is no sub stitute for the thorough-going, ardent and sincere earnestness. Never put one hand to anything on which you cannot throw your whole self ; never affect de preciation of yOur work, whatever it is. These you will Lind to be golden rules.

Ci , lonel 7;l'4rill rioted that he was desirous of learnlV from the practical men who were pre.nt what they believed to be most required for safe and easy navigation. After some discussion the meeting agreed upon a resolution offered by Mr. Simpson Horner, providing that the darn near the foot of Brunot's Island be elevated to a height of eight feet, and that the middle bar and other obstructed por tions ofN.he river bed be dredged. There was some opposition to this, but on a vote it was shown to be inconsiderable..., A statement was made by Col. Merrill to the effect that as soon as Congress would grant the expected appropriation he would be ready to proeeed with the work, Ile stat.d that important Im provements had already been planned, In 14,• far a 51 respected Beaver Shoals, and also that the difficulties experienced in the vicinity of Horse-tall Riffle would receive attention.

JACOB STEERLEY CAROLINE STEERLEY 4 .;:eleetion Made Castles la the Aie.—What a dull, dreary world this would be without hope! Faith makes bigots, but hope makes cheer and forgetfulness of the present. A correspondent gives a glowing de scription of air-castle building, which reads like a volume of poetry, bound In the daintiest blue and gold. “What a world of day-dreaming and castle-building we all do I" says this writer. "The Irishman at his spade, the seamstress at her needle, th housewife at her domestic dut t i o, the at school. the merchant at bureoess? ict us are at innilo in a realm in •orhl we Ure.lien 7 orals, statesmen, 'poets. philantbrortsts , millionaires, kings of the turf,chatnplons of the boat nice, w ith just. in accordant* our tastes; all of ask' a realtb'irt which we force some great general to surren der, emancipate every slave in creation, pull the stroke-oar In the international race on theWhames, make hundreds of poor families rich and happy, or plant the national banner, in patriotic enthu siasm, In a hole drilled exactly at the North Pole.

How is the Great West Peopled? —Few of the great movements of the present age aro better illustrative of "the power of the Press" than the wonderful peopling of the Western portion of our great continent, especially those regions which lay beyond the Mississippi River. Step by step the course of civilization and settlement advanced toward the Mississippi ; but for a considerable time this seemed to be a barrier to further progress. A few, however, hardy ad venturers, crossed from time to time ; sonic to remain, others to return and tell their stories, t6st large almost for comprehension or belief. To most of us, beyond was a wilder ness, the "Great American Desert" then, but now It proves to be "the Garden of the West," which literally "blossoms like the rose." The census returns of the United States show that there were never in the history of the world, such marvels of rise and progress as are exhibited in the plain facts there shown concerning some of the recent towns and cities in this re gion, which have grown up, as it were in a night, almost like that magic city of the Arabian story. Those vast expanses of land, for cen turies the hunting grounds of the Indi ans and the home of the buffalo, have been in a few mouths brought complete ly under the dominion of civilization and made valuable and available for the benefit of the entire human rare. And how has this come to.pass? Those wonderful men, editors, reporters, trav elers and correspondents, who see and hear of everything, who make a note of things and print them, too, have tilled the laud with pleasing narratives of the West in all its natural greatness.. First of all, its agricultural attractions are prominent, and thoughtful farmers at the East, who have struggled life-long on a few acres, with three, faur, or per haps six boys to follow them, seeing small prospect of profit, or even a living for half of 'berg, hive looked with eager eyes to these larger fields and this "bet ter laud ;" one and another•have gone forward, found their anticipations more than realized, have written Louie We sorry of their experience, and young A irierica has followed in their steps, and so the pioneers of this great work have gone on. Shrewd,business men, who read the papers, were quick to see the chances for business :u, all its variety and ex- Jent which were sure to rise from the -peopling"( such a region. Railroads are projected and built, the great river is bridged, enterprise is ready and ever pressing on; towns, vil lages anLcities spring up; trade and traffic folleitit; a school-house, church and newspapee-are among the first es sentials; and soVika tide sweeps on. Each day's events add a new chapter to the marvellous sun*, which the Press is sure to spread with tightning speed the world over ; and sOuti,there flock from "every nation and kindred and people and tongue under the whole heav ens"—adventurers to the ",prinnised land"—sturdy men and brave women who collie with a purpose, pioneers in a great work which imagination-fails to picture even in the faintest colors. The lands offered for sale along the various lines of railroad have' naturally proved most attractive to settlers. Go% - eminent has wisely aided these enter prises by granting of her lands to Cor porations who have had the pluck and energy to build Roads through her as yet undeveloped fields, and which ha% been held for ages at a were nominal price, failing the while to find purcha sers or development for means of trans portation. She has in many instances, given alternate sections along the link., of these roads, on either side, and by this seeming liberality has made the re maining portion quickly available, insu ring fur it also a value greater than that of the whole before the generous gift. Doubtless there have been some un wise grants, fur there is a limit to all things; but as a rule, Government and the people have been large gainers by her liberality to these transportation en terprises. ltnt how are these enterprisel in a new land made successful ? They re quire settlers along their lines and nosi ness over their roads, and iu aid of this the printer has his full share to do. The natural resources of the region must be wade known, and the waiting multi tudes. invited to come in and possess the land. A bird's-eye view shows a rich coun tryt varying of course in natural attrac tions ; but granting that all wore equal ly rich and attractive, the density of pop ulation is doubtless distributed very nearly in proportion to the information wttu•h has been given to the public con cerning the various fines of railroad, and the region through which each passes. :some reg . are comparatively unset tled because their attractions are un known ; the Roads through them are built slowly and at great disadvantage, and with but little prospect of profitable returns at present, while numerous in stances demonstrate an entirely differ ent state of affairs, as a single prominent case.may illustrate. . - Published reports state that the Burl ington and Missouri River Railroad Co., whose trunk 'lnca 47U miles exteuds trout Burlington on the Mtssissppi River, across the entire State of loa a, and through that rich portion of Southern Nebraska bordering upon the Platte Iti.er, to Fort Kearney, where it Makes aluuouuu with the Union Pacific Rail road tor through tr to the reedit: Coast, have %old durnig the last two years 3ti'2,3:1; acres of la id,for something overanti ailfrtilryreepezirit be of a half millions of dollars tiriuel,othae4uahlavesetutttnr. asked a man to buy! By a julicious system of ildvertising they hove scattered two re4tuJii bloat& - east over the land,in the lorui ut facts re lating to the region through which their Bead passes, so that a perfect tide of mil, igration has set toward that parttcula# section, and farmers call for their land as childreu do fur Ltrandreth'm Their advertisements are prominent In a ' all the papers; their large mid beautiful cards attract attention in every depot in the land; they distribute gratuitously millions of circulars, maps and other documents relating especially to their laud and passenger interests, containing plain facts in which all are Interested, and ou which all may rely. These are published in English, German, Swedish and Norwegian, and distributed all over this country and Europe. Their wail ing department alone, which is as sys tematically arranged as that of any newspaper establishment, affords ene• ploymant to from twelve to twenty per sons, and all simply to circulate Wens among the people. It is true that their lands are exceed ingly beautiful and fertile, and present attractions and advantages of locality, soil and climate, which are essential, in the estimation of farmers, probably un surpassed by any region in the world: but it is mainly by the printer's art that the stiorld has come to know it, and in additition to cultivated folds, trad e , mantifaetures, arts, Science, and, all the attenditits "of refinement and luxury which enterprise can introduce and thrift maintain, are following rapidly the march of settlement. • Their lands already sold are wonder fully unproved, and the - increase in value fit large—lu setae cases almost incredible. Much equally good land remain., un sold; an be bought of the Railroad Co. a t low prices, on a credit, of tell years, a t six per cent. Interest, and with equal. ly good prospects of steady and large in crease in value. And so the west is being peopled! Tint even now few, comparatively, have any idea of what that country is, the lay of the land even, or its peculiar attractants. ,' An Eastern man cannot comprehend it; he has nothing with which to compare itt- maps, guides and circulars all are fa miliar with, but something more •is wanted. and to meet this want the Latid Ct issioner of the Railroad Company referred to hits recently published, for gratuitous distribution, a series oftrnth-. ful ropresentatione of various points along the line of that Road, which afford, lrobably. a better idea of the lay of the and, the general appearance and charac teristbs of the country, than is to bo had from the most elaborate written descrlp- Lien. These are finely engraved, and will doubtless, hOOl3 adorn the table of every farmer in the land, and exert an Import ant influence in giving direction to many who are looking to tho West for their future homes. Now call it advertising or what wo will, this poopleing of the West, and the great business traffic of the Weit, is simply a legitimate result of putting facts before the people.

It would be difficult to say to whom these facts appeal most strongly. certainly those who are thinking of the West as their future homes should read the papers, advertisements and all, and then take a look at the "promised laud."

Bravo for State Senate in preference to J. S. Ulnae. Well, ISUppose I Should ex plain to the little gambler why Ido so begm with. John P. Bravo is an honest man, a true Republicama thorough, hard.fisted working man, and a Christian gentleman in every particular; while Jas. 8. Bolan is au umultig,ated trend, who Cannot fie believed even .under oath, as can be proven by hiS affidavits published in 1870; besides, he is the supple tool of the 'Cameron-treasury-rin wlr:se thief. g; ble-rigger and lobbyist is Al. S. Quay. Mr. Rutan is not trueto the best oiler. gists of hisdistrict and if re-elected to th e Senate he will vote for Simon Canierow s return to the U. S. Senate; anu there are not twenty respectable men in this county iu favor of sending that old swindler back to AVashington; the coati. try has been cursed Mk enough with him. Again, J. S. Rutan procured his first nomination through fraud, and afterwards bargained with and itssisted (in the glee don of John tiraebing, democrat. (an ex. cellent 41leer by the way) as because he (Rubin) was so unpopular that he could nut he elated, by Republican votes alone. He is just as obnoxious to honest Republicans now as he wa.s y at that tithe, and his nomination will lose us the diStriet for the Senate, and possibly flit, whole county ticket. if he he nominated at all, it will only be through the same fraudulent means heretotore yed; and his master are now actively distribut ing the money of the Cameron-treasury ring corruption fund. throughout every borough and township in this county among those who wear - the ring They pay their toadies live dollars a day to hound or buy the good people to Ru tan's support. Again. Rutan is master of neither trade, business, nor proicsslUn He never work ed a day lu his life with his hands. Il e i s not even a trusty fourth-rate lawyer; he is simply a political tool. . The above are some of the reasons why I sin for Bravo against Ruoin,land I trust M. S Quay will deem f o lnan satisfactory. As to Butan's position with the various candldates for Sheriff, in talking with Intelligent people iu New• Brighton, Bea ver Fulls , Fallston, Bridgewater anti Dar lingtou, I have Lunt( the situation thus: In Beaver Falls he is for 3lzarChatoberlin te ; in New Iltighton be is for Capt. C. K. Chamberlin and John Boyles; tit Bridgewater he is for Capt. Darragh; in Darlington and South Beaver he is for J. P. Martin, the brother-to-law of D. L. inti rie, who demands his 110113illiiiitinfroin the 'ring,' and I think him right in doing it, as be has temuined here in Beaver tor years denying to the goon people as they conic along that Quay, Ratan & Co, were playing the rascal at Harrishurg. An other reason why J. P. Martin—inthrie's brother in-law—should be noadnated is, that D. L. Lubec himself hassteadily and • persistently declined to Lie elected to any office (except justice of the peace) ever since he voted for the memorable bill re pealing the mange lax during his term in the State Senate in 1664 thereby taking eight hundred thousand dollars annually from the State treasury, in - hard emit; and since that event has contented himself in retwaty at his railroad house in Beaver, subsisting on what he did not lose by voting for that inrquitous measure. I do nut censure fabric nor Quay fir supporting Rutan, because they know bo,v Zit is themselves," they have been tor. A gentlemen in New Brighton, vears the "ring" collar, said to me that there was an absolute necessity , for the renomination al ltutan, other*ise there e.huld be trouble. I can teL you ‘‘ here the trouble is. It is in the ' frees nry Itlng . ' and must not be exposed. I was Treasurer two years; you had no trouble about "treasury ruigs - that. I paid more State debt than any Treasurer ever did in this state ; but you elected a brace of unreliable scalawags—Rutau and Shu rlock—w ho violated their pledges and sold out to the "treasury ring,' to which the former now betimes; while poor Shur lock Is left soliloquizing on what he so of ten repeated to we without solicitation: "That tic told Quay be would nut go back on Irwin for, any money that could be named." And affidavit man Rutan feud lie "told Quay tie would not take $20,0N) and go back on Irwin," and the very next night Iw sold out for less than half of that sum. If be is re elected he will sell his constituents' Interests to the high tt bid der. The " Little Corporal " el rges that I voted against Dr. Stanton ; or Auditor General. lu this he deliberri ly lies, and wit Lout the kiligtne.st shadow or cause. I both voted and worked ror h:s election, as the following will show: NEW DitiotrroN, May 20, 1b72. G Ex. W. W. lam N, Pear Sir : The Beaver Radical of last issue charges that you voted. last Octo ber, against Dr. Stanton, I write you this to nay that I was present nearly all day working for the ticket, and saw you working, for the election of Dr. Stanton, and was present when you induced at least two Democrats to vote for him. Yours truly, Wst. Flan. NEeßniutivosi, May 20, 1872. I •hereby certify that I voted for Dr. David Stanton for Auditor General hilt October at the solicitation of Gen. W. W. Irwin, and I am a Democrat of the old school. Jon WVtiOLL, SR It is well understood why the above charge is made It is this : M. S. Quay never had any standing for truth or hon esty among the oldest and best classes of he citizens .1 New Brighton, and h e cal culates t t:at he strikes a chord in that class of People here who can be influenced by in deliberate a falsehood against me. Bat in this be is misbiken. 1 have been a cit• izen of the vicinity of this too, n since the year 1et.57 —exec pt three years it bile Sher nr—und no one high or low, in position or other A Ise, can be Lputal to say that 1 have deceived them; while there has not been teycar, in the last live years at least, that be has not deceived them every time they have trusted him, and he will continue to do so whenever the opportunity presents, for he is an unmitigated deceiver, tilsifyer, trickster and, black-leg gambler of the lowest type. His gambling room. No. 42 Girard House, Philadelphia,—which he has had rented for more than live years— is the most noted public gambling place in that city. When he is there lie gam bles all night ; and I have known him to gamble litany, many Sundays ail day; and ii- re, ni this innocent, unsophisticated county, lie edits and publishes a family mwspaper, and cracks the party lash over ill who wear the crdiur of the ('am ( n n treasury ring and compels them to do his bidding. This Mat) denounces your hatable servant because he could not gmulde in clucks an State money w bile I . had control of the State Treasuryil IL W. Mackey just suits him in that reppoct be cause he is also a noted black leg and libertine, and it is absolutely necessary ta them that Itutan sh o uld be return e d t o the Senate to assist in tor (-ring up the frauds of the Treasury ring, fur Quay knows Rubin is 'aloud to do his bideing, lide he fears all such men :IN honest (Mitt). Yes, I know well what I say when I declare he fears them. He dares nut approach their like with the money ot the corruption fund. They spurn him; they despise hon. Even slit Cameron says he is a little scoundrel and he would not trust hint, only to use him and yis paper. Many persons in this county have been hootiwinkcsl and deceiv),ll by letters from liarrisburw,- written during the last ses sion of the Legislature by one Dionpy, who:A{o4ls a Ottoe in the Auditor Gener al's Alec, which letter, utter the cadaver ..as Itutan's inspection and certection, were forwarded and published 111 " The Beaver Radical" and a paper printed in New Brighton called the -Pre,ss," a small "I mg - organ that received its price, and if ended out, 1 will give the price paid.

They wire written to create a false (nee for itutan. if they again Slirlit roan again to the Senate who is a fraud, they will rue it to the end. Quay also charges that 1 voted against tde candidate for county treasurer last fall. This is another lie of his own coin ing. There was only one Republican vote against Charlie Wallace, in this Tp., and that was cast by a steamboat friend of Mr. Charlie Hurst. So, t h a♦, he 13 ' elPioded- Quay charges that 1 voted for Dr. Jack son in 11370. which is also a lie from whole cloth. I voted hir 1)r.

Quay also lies when he charges the "Pittsburgh Gazette" with lending Its aid to Drava cud Irwin. The "Gazette" for is a stranger to Irwin, and was oppo sed to Itutan from principle and party considerations; and Dtavo's name had not been mentioned in cviinection with the . - fictitanthtl - nominationrien-that paper first came out in oppos ton to lintan.

EDS. qAZETTE:--1: have read your ar ticlo headed "Rutan vs. Bravo," and signed "S"—stigmatizing the friends of the latter as nbolterS," and professing to give a history of political matters in this county for some years past. "S" very modestly "thinks that ho is the leading Repnblican of New Brighton and the county generally"—meaning I suppose' that he is now the &publican elector for the '27t11 district, and that he war an ad vocate for the enslavement of Kansas, and a supporter of Buchanan' "5," or perhaps I', more properly—is either grossly ignorant of what has been done oy the politicians in this county for seine years past, or-is too ,ffulhonest to write a truthful history of 'the same.— Unlike him lam not a politician. I sun a plain man, and propose with your per inixsion, to put in a plain anj truthful statement, in opposition to his one-sid ed and unfair one. I start out with the declaration, that the prominent men, who are now candi dates in this county,the men acting with "S," whom ho is supp,3rting, %%amn he is defending, and in Irhose behalf, and for whose benefit In Is writing, have done more "boiling" and snore cutting and stashing against regularly nominated . tickets, than twenty Drava§ or irwins have ever done. To begin at the begining, hearken to a brief history of the "true" men "S" calls upon you to sick—Wm. lienry,six' years ago, was overwhelmingly beaten in this count=y for the nomination as State Senator. Instead of acquiescing, like a "true" man, ho listened to the se ductive wards of Win. Montgomery, to become an independent Democrat AI. can didate: and bad it not been for a gentle man holding a seat on the Supreme Bench, who in full view,and in hearing of scores of Democrats and ReOublimins passing and repassing on the streets, lit erally thrashed the insane idea out of his mind, he would have bartered, himself w hoily away to those who were ready to Witt back the rebels with open arms.— Two years ago he watiltbe candidate of "S" and those who n e now so savage on "bolters." Ile is their candidate now. "S" says "Mr. Rutan has been a uni form and consistent Republican." Elev en years ago, Mr. Rutan haying become a resident of the State but a few years before, and barely attained his majority, was a candidate for District Attorney. lie was defeated, and with others, he forthwith organized a third party. lie co-operated with D. L. I. in trying to defeat Hon. Agnew Dulf, the regular nominee for Associate Judge. It is gen erally understood that be was false to the nominee for Clerk of Courts, on the ticket with him three years trro, and it is notorious that he toasted th e Demo cratic candidate for Sheriff in his own house, "as the next Sheriff," that be promised that his name should be smug gled into Republican tickets, and that he directed him to certain itepubliean "sore heads," who were - Yeady to aid hint efficiently. By these and kindred means, - the Republican candidate was .elaughtered, and to this result, more than to all others, may be attributed the deplorable conditon of the Republican party of Beaver county to-day. As a reward for Mr. Rutan's "bolting" pro clivities, lie has had nine years' of ottiee, and "S" and his 'true Republicans want to give hint three more. Dr. M. , Lawrence openly opposed Col. John Allison when he was first a eandi date for Congress. The next year lie ' fought Mr. William McCallister and others on the ticket—friends of Col. A. —and came within a few votes of de feating them. When Col. A. was last a candidate, he again resisted his election —wrote confidential letters to some of his intimate friends, urging theni to "give the fat Col. a dig," at the same time he went against our re,rular nomi nees for Sheriff, Register, Recorder, ('lerk of Om rts, Ozo.,oed with his rela tive—Mr. T. It.—(who presumed to cate chise Mr. Dravo at the New Brighton meeting,) Win. Henry and others, !sought to crush the Beaver Armes, be cause its editors would not join with them in a ft - Won with the Democrats in opposition to the regular ticket. It is generally believed, that he aided private /y in slaughtering the Republican candi - date for Sheriff three yearis ago, and I have now In my possesion letters; ad d by him front time to time to a minent Democratic leader in this county, proffering aid to defeat the nomi nees a (his own party. Mr. L. may iss regarded as the father of all the "bolters." Ile has held office for twenty years, elev en on the Bench, rind "S." and his "true" men of the party wilt - leave nothing un done to give him five years more as an additional reward for his herculean la bors in the "bolting" business. John Boyles and C. Chain berlitt. were largely engaged in "coquetting" with lion. Wins Montgomery '4t s lew years ago, and assisted very materially in bringing out a candidate in opposi tion to the regular Republican nominee. J. P. Martin wan understood at the time to be with his brother-in-law, D. L. I—,ln the raid on Judge Dizif, and is charged by his neighbors that he assist ed privately in the defeat of Shields for Sheriff. Dr. McKinney was a leading spirit in the attempt to defeat the Republican nominee for Clerk. it. S. titanic+ is be lieved to hay* been engaged in the same labor ( - glove, and it would not be un charitable to suppose that ho tram in the Judge Dun expedition with his brother, a few years previously. There, Mr. Editor, are a tbw specinen "bricks" of the "true men of the parts" that "8" desires you to aid. What do you think of them? Would the nid, con sistent Gazette be true to,ita past history If it "aided" men like these, who, upon so many occastors, have stabbed the party to which they were allied, to strike down a man like John F. Drayo, who has given his time, his money, his tal ents, In building up the Republican party, whose only fault has been, if fault it be, to refuse to vote for an incompe tent or dishonest man when ho found such on the ticket. I am no "bolter." I am not a "Liber al." I have taken no part thus far in the contest between Messrs. bravo and Itutan. But lam in favor of honest, square, manly dealing, oven in politics. 1 protest solemnly against one set of men like Henry, Lawrence, Retail& Co., being upheld, defended and rewarded for party infidelity; and another set like.
