EX:TRACT OF A LETTER TO THE EDITOR
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 17, 1853
It has been determined by the President of the
U. States, that, if he can be spared from the public
business for a few days, himself and . Cabinet will
be present at the Crystal Palace Exhibition at New
York, to open on the 15th proximo. It will be a
proud day for the country when that day arrives.—
Thousands will be there, to witness the exhibition
of the improvement that will be there exhibited by
ingenious artizana, for the first time. We should
desire to be present ourself, hut fear the time gill
not be allotted for the visit. But, whether there
or Dot, we must congratulate those engaged in this
gceat work, in the very successful manner with
Which we are told the whole design has been exe
cuted.
hope to see especial attention paid to the im
provements in the mechanical arts. - It is by these
hardy sons, that the enterprise of our country has
advanced so rapidly to that eminence, which, has
wrought such distinction for the Mechanics of the
U. States. And, the getting up of this Fair, in New
York, will be but the means of our farther advance
ment in the scale of nations. The " age of pro
gress," is increased among our people, and, the pro.
greys of,the mechanic is a sure guarantee that the
Nation, as well as the mechanic, is advancing daily
in her prosperity, as the mechanic is in his renown.
Success attend the noble undertaking.
The news from Mexico, is rather startling / 0 r
the last few days.. We have the intelligence that
Santa Anna, is holding the promise to the ear,"
in reference to the U. States; apd, at , the same
time forming an alliance with the rotten g_vern•
meat of Spain to aid him, and that in turn, he will
guarantee the integrity of Cuba to Spain, under ad
visement of the British G o vernment, the, British
coming -into the trio, if Spain will consent to free
the slaves of Cuba. This is a well laid plan, and
worthy of Santa Awl., as well as of the British
Ministry. W e have as little confidence in Santa
Anna, as we have in the -British Ministry. They
have always been inimical to the prosperity of the
U. States, and their policy always shaped to crip
ple the commerce and enterprise of our people.—
If they have engaged in this outrageous scheme.
we shall be willing to meet them, even with the
odds of Spain and Santa Anna, and themselves com
bined against the U. States, and they will be whip
ped into justice as neatly by the present generation
as they have successfully been by our forefathers.
The British Government liberated the slaves in the
West Indies, and are now buying Africans by con
tract at $lO per head. Here is philanthropy with
a vengeance. They ruined thousands of their citi
zens, and left an enormous debt to their Treasury,
with a view, to ruin the prosperity of the Southern
States, and now if it was not for the product. of
these very States, their honies would be shut up
'and their people a starving community. Now, that
their policy has proved to be an abortion, they
are mean enough, to retrace their steps, by openly
engaging in the Slave trade at $lO per head. This
people are now feasting the slanderer of the U. States
in the person of Mrs. Stowe. But, we wait lurther
advices on this British move.

Your fellow.citizen, Judge CAMPBELL, is winning
daily golden opinions from all who have business
with the Post Office Department. Facititle: are
now granted for the' transaction of busines", that
ensures a speedy answer to all enquires. In fact
Judge Campbell will redeem, by-his energy of char
acter, his Department from the somewhat Chaotic
contusion into which it had fallen Wider the man
agement of Mr. Hall.
I are that Mr. Brandt, and not Mr. Parke, has
become P. M. at the Capitol of your State. The
editor of the "Union," at Harrisburg, J. G. McKin
ley, should have had the place, if faithful service
should command promotion ; but. it seems, he could
not get the position he formerly filled with so much
ability and satifaction to the
. democratic party of
the State. He must not be set aside in this way ;
but, call upon the President, to right the wrong
done to him in this appointment at Hakrisburg.—
We think it due to the working democracy of your
State that Isaac 0. M'Kinley should be P. M. at
Harrisburg.
I notice that Col. FORNEY is again to be Clerk of
the House. He will have opposition, but, his pros
pect for re-election is decidedly flattering from the
indications we have seen, and, the opinion of the
members with whom we have conversed upon the
subject.
Mr. Burkef of N. H. has been kicking up a muss.
with the President about the " old-guard From
this, it is interred, that that portion of the tt obi
guard '' who act with Mr. Burke are about desert
ing their colors We hope not. Mr. Burke cer
tainly cannot join the Whigs. We know the Pres
ident cannot. Then who is right? Yours,

THE POPULAR EDUCATOR.—This monthly serial
bids fair to be every thing that could be desired by
the public. The second, or June number, is even
superior to the first, and contains an amount ofuse
ful reading which is scarcely to be found in any
other publication of the same size. It is emphati
cally a book for the masses, and well calculated to
aid them in the work of self-education. In addi
tion to the reading matter, its pages are adorned
with -maps and other illusttations which will be
found exceedingly useful to the student. The con
tents of the present number are varied, and treat in
detail of the following departments of education,
' viz: Language, Natural History, Mathematics, the
Fine Arts, Anthropology, History, Philosophy, Po
l. litical Seience, ,4^c.
i The work is published at New York, by A. Mont
, gomery r and is sold by Agents and Booksellers gen
erally,
at 12$ cents per.number.
ILLUSTRATED MAGAZINE OT ART.—The number
for June completes the drat volume of this very able
and useful periodical, and it is fully equal to any
of its predecessors in merit and interest. Each
number contains about 30 superb engravings, four
of which are printed separately on superfine Plate
Paper. The general design of the work is to treat
on History, the Men and Women of the Age, Nat,
oral History, Botany; krchitecture ' Paintings and
Sculpture, Science, Manufactures; Machinery and
--lasentione, Literature, &c. In all these prrticu
• lare it is Lieyond all question:dhe Magazine of the
Day, and merits the most extended patronage.
The work is furnished monthly, at 25 cents
per number—postage 2 1-2 cents. The Pub
lisher, A. Montgomery, 17 Spruce street, N.
Y., has now the first six numbers handsomely bowel
in cloth, at 82; ,or Eitra cloth, gilt edges, 02,25.
It is one of the cheapest and most useful books we
. know of, and should. be in thethands of all our cit
izens, as it forms a volume which, for interest, or
. iginality, value, and beauty, will defy all competi
tion.
PEPINSYLVANIA Ralutoin.—The editor of the
Greensburg Intelfigencer having recently passed beer
the road of this Company, in Westmoreland county ,
expresses great gratification at the rapidity with
which the work the on second track is prosecuted.—
The principal object in the way of its rapid comple.
tionis the inability of the'Company to obtain iron
for the whole double track. The construction of the
double track from - Latrobe to Pittsburgh, a dis
tance of forty miles, is under the general superin
tendence of Mr. W. H. Barnes--a gentleman of
worth, and highly esteemed—assisted by" Messrs.
Caleb Cope and Henry Pleasants. The portion of
the work between Latrobe and . Msnor Station, is in
charge of Mr. Cope, and the remaining part, from
the Manor to Pittsburgh, is under the care of Mr.
Pleasants.

pairing his usefulness to his conntl', his appear

citizen. Should there be cases istere this cannot
be done, owing to the character ofthe foreign gov
ernment, without detriment to the public interest,
the nearest approach to it compatible with the due .
performance of his duties is earnestly recommended.
The simplicity of our usages and the tone of feel

al t

tice which has since prevail . It is to be regret
ted that there was ever any (departure in this re
spect from the example of. Franklin. History
Ir
has recorded and commend this example, so con
genial to the spirit of our po, itical institutions. The
department is desirous of removing all obstacles to
a return to the simple and unostentatious comae
which was deemed so pror and was so much ap
proved in the earliest-days' of the republic. It is
our purpose to cultivate thb - most amicable relations
with all countries, and this we believe can be effec
tually done without requiring our diplomatic agents
abroad to depart in this respect from what is suited
to the general sentiments of our fellow citizens at
home. All instructions in regard to what is called
diplomatic uuiform or court dress, being withdrawn.
each of our representatives in other countries will
be.left to regulate this matter according to his own
sense of propriety and with a due respect to the
views of his government as herein expressal.
It is desirable that the Minister or Char4e d' Af
fuires should establish the legation in as central a
position as may be convenient to the metropolis
near the Government to which he is sent., It will
be his duty to see that it is kept open every day,
except .Sundays and fete days, from 9 o'clock in the
forenoon until 3 o'clock in the afternoon. The Sec
retary attached to it. if there be one, must perform
in person all the services which properly devolve
upon him, except in case of sickness or leave of
absence. In such cases it is enjoined upon the
Minister to appoint an American citizen to repre
sent him, if it can be done. There is an obvious
impropriety in devolving upon a foreigner the du
ties which belong to the Secretary. It is necessary
to be thus specific in these instructions, for it has
frequently occurred, of latter years, that Secretaries
of Legation have, as this Department is informed,
employed Clerks whose allegiance was foreign, to
copy despatches and other official duties which
pertained lo themselves. This practice which, it
is feared, is upon the increase, is so obviously
wrong, that the President is resolved to compel to
be discontinued'.
The correspondence between the government and
the Legation- of the United States must be guarded
with the utmost secrecy even as relates to our own
citizens. To submit it to the examination of a for
eigner will be regarded as an indiscretion in the of
fender, demanding imm , diate deprivation of office.
The first duty of a subject is considered to be fidel
ay to his sovereign. Foreign clerks may be justly
regarded as unsafe depositaries of the secrets of our
diphimacy in the Legation where they are employ
ed. The possibility that a revelation of our secret
state papers may occur in this manner, is sufficient
to excite fears on the subject, and require the strict
est observation.
• Ministers of the United States and Charge d'Af
faires are requested to authenticate by their own
signatures with the seal of the Legation, pass
ports of American citizens, and not permit Secre
taries to perform this duty when they themselves
are at their posts. W. L. MA RCY.
Special Legislation
We adopt the subjoined sensible and well-timed
remarks of the Lycoming Gazette, as expressing our
views. upon a subject that has recently engaged a
large share of the public attention, and has
elicited much comment in the newspapers of this
and other States:
WYOMING
Is there no remedy for the evils of special legis
lation?—evils, which though seen and acknowl
edged by all, still annually accumulate, and roll on.
increasing, that circle of corruption which has the
seat of government for its centre. Then the poor
and rich were alike protected. Now, no :..an can
be entirely certain that he has not been legislated
out of house and home, unless he has read the Acts
of Assembly passed by the last session of the leg
islature and examined with critical care ' , very sec
tion' of every act published in the pamphlet laws
—for legislative snakes, - as they are aptly termed,
are seldom referred to by title or side notes. but are
incorporated in some ponderous omnibus, by way
of amendment, and their true signification is only
knw to those who have had an agency in the
fraud. Not until the legislature adjourns is it even
hinted that a special law has been passed, curing a
defect in n Sheriffs title which settles the ejectment
in the case of Oilygammon vs. Clodhopirr; or le
gitimating certain bastard children of Richard Roe,
deceased, by which the lawful heirs of that worthy 1
gentleman fool themselves robbed of the patrimony
of their own father; or giving certain harmless priv
ileges to an Insurance company, which pres:o,
chatige! have made it a bank. We repeal, is there
no remedy for these evils? Must .thq continue
and grow worse and worse until arrested by a
change in the constitution ? Have we no statesman
equal to the task? in many of the States of this
Union, it is made a constitutional requitement that
bills shall receive not only three readings in each
branch of the legislature, but that they shall pass
but one reading on any one day, that each bill shall
embrace but one distinct subject, and on its final
passage, the yeas and nays are to be called and a
majority of the whole number of members elected must
vote in its favor before it can become a law. This
is wise, and strikes at the root of the evil, and it no
other remedy can be applied in Pennsylvania, in
God's name let the Constitution be so amended.—
But, as that will require time, we would respect
fully propose a remedy which will meanwhile be
almost as potential. Let our worthy Governor an
nounce in his annual messag e that he will apprOve
of no bill embracing more than one subject, unless
it be the general appropriation bill; and then with
unflinching firmness let him stand by that rule.—
This would not only `scotclithe,snokes," but it , would
effectually destroy them. No "omnibus" freighted
with mischief, if rolled through the two houses by
corrupt influences, could then become a law. Leg
islative borers would then be at a discount, an.; leg
islative boring an up hill business. Honest and lair
bills, resting on their own merits, would become
laws, without money and with[ ut price; wide the
dishonest projects of sneaking and corrupt tricksters
would be exposed and defeated. We beliue that
our I resent Governor has the moral integrity and
the nerve to carry out the reform which 4e have
vaguely and hastily foreshadowed. It is vorthy of
his most serious attention; and if he concira with
us, and can bring it about, it will be hail=d as the
great measure of his administratioo, sad rill place
the name of Wixiima BIGLER, in the estimation of
the public of this State, along slch of that of the
honored SNYDER, and his co-equal n integrity and
in steadfast devotion to the bestinterests of the
Commonwealth.

that be had done all in his power' to preserve the
good will of the Emperor of Russia, and every rea
sonable request of the Czar's had been granted; but
now a demand which infringed upon the preroga
tivesti of his crown, whith he had no right to cede,
had been ten d -red by t e Emperor, which he, (the
Sultan) was bound refuse. If then, it plased
the Almighty to inff t on the nations the scourge

and hearing that in mind, he would be the first to
risk his person at the head of his troors, in defence
of the holy territory of Islam." The Turks are
now preparing for war in right earnest; 30.000
troops are being sent from For, many of whom
have already arrived, and lops and ammunition
are moving at all points. is supposed that in
Roumelia, the part most threatened, the Govern
ment will be able to bring a6nce 80,000 men un
der arms. The present Granf. Vizier, being an Al
banian, is able, through his influence, to raise the
whole of that warlike poplation.- A meeting of
the British merchants, resid nt at Constantinople,
had been held, in order to a ress the Ambassador,

The correspondent of the Pail y News has an ac

attitude, resolved on adopffag a series of imposing
measures." I
Orders were sent to Actimet Pasha, commanding
the Mediterranean . squadror, to return immediately
with his fleet. He was eXpectedt at Constantinople
in the course of the present week. The fleet of the
Viceroy of Egypt was al* , expected in a few days,
a courier having been serf to Alexandria with or
ders. This fleet was to bring a reinforcement of
15,000 men: At the same time orderswere given
to Omer Pasha, General in Chief of the army of
Rumelia, to descend to Sumba with his corps dor
ntee, a force of from eighty to one hundred thousand
excellent troops, inured war, and a greatnumber
of which took part in :he expeditions to Bosnia,
Kurdistan and Monten g
ro. The Commander-in
Chief has also ordered tie immediate formation of
two camps, one at Rouijouk and the other at Bros
sa.
These two camps, composed of the ledif, or re
serve, will comprehend 260,000 men, who, joined
to the active army of about 250,000, will form a
total effective force of more than 500,000, available
for the defence of the country. Besides its ordinary
resources, Turkey he> at its disposal the reserve
chest, recourse to o-aich is only had in extreme
cases. This treasury has not been opened since
1827. Its present c ontents are estimated at 300,-

t e:ble statement :
" The wool. rowers of Clark, Marion, Morrow,
and Knox counties are already clipping, ['hough it
is some two weeks earlier than loimer years. The
crop appears to be fine and light, and the growers
seem to be disposed to put it up in fine order, not
withstanding the most of them contracted for their
wool. Thom who sack their wool, without the
immediate inspection of the purchaser, and flatter
themselves sat this is the end of the matter, and
lor this rearm neglect to put it up in as good order
as they otherwise would, labor under a great mis
take, tor the wool is all examined (when graded)
separate and alone, and reported back to the pur
chaser either favorable or unfavorable. The wool,
particularly in Knox and Morrow counties, is
greatly improved, both in quantity and quality
from former occasions.
Many farmers are taking great pains in getting
fine flocks, numbering Worn 100 to 7,000 head, and
the most of them grading from one-halt to lull
blood; some-of their finest bucks costing, them from
$3OO to $5OO, and - some as nigh as ot.ooo.
of the growers, particularly in Morrow county. are
taking much pains in washing and putting their
wool in good order, determined not to be out done
by any of the adjoining counties. This will be an
advantage to the purchaser, and in the end a much
greater advantage to the grower. All the irrespon-
sible buyers that contracted during the excitement,
at such high prices, are now refusing to take wool;
choosing rather to forfeit what they advanced on
the contract, than to fulfil the same: and these lots
are now offering at a decline of from 5 to 6 cents
per lb Wool changes now at from 30 to 40 cents
for common to one half blood, and 4U to 50 cents
from one half to full blood, which prices trill
probably by sustained the present season.
A VA LIIARLE GEM, OR A Torso SToar.—The
Goshen Whig states that Rev. Robert Armstrong,
of Newburg, N. Y., purchased among minerals,
what he supposed was a topaz, but which turned
out to be a diamond, for one halt of which he ha's
been offered $500,0(10, which he declines. Its
weight is two and a halt ounces, and if a real dia

Silver's Plastic Paints, Cheap.
Durable and Protective Weather and Fire
Proof. This Paint will stand any climate, without
crack or blister hardens by exposure, thus making:in
time an enamel of atone, protecting wood from de
cay, and Iron and other metals from rust and cor
rosion.
The Paint differs from the so-called Mineral
Paints of the day, which are princip..lly Ochres and
Clays colored, and are entirely worthless.
Silver's Plastic Paints are purely Metalic, con
taining no Alumin or Clay.
They are levigated finely, mix readily with Lin
seed Oil, (without the trouble of grinding.) and flow
under the brush as freely as the best White Lead.
These Paints excel all others in body or cover
ing properties, one pound of which Will cover as
much surface, as two pounds of White Lead.
There are four natural colors, viz : Black or
Slate, Brown, Olive and Chocolate.
Directions.—This Paint flows readily under the
brush and its covering property is increased by
using it mixed as thickly as possible with pure Lin
seed Oil; as the Paint is the lasting or protecting
body and the Oil simply the medium or agent in
spreading it.
We annex copies of two letters, one from the
President of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad
Co., the other from a Gentleman, a well known

Dear Sir: We have used your "Plastic
Paints" for more than a year, and for Painting
Bridges,•Depots, &c., &c., we have found it quite
equal to any paint we have used. In tact, we now
give it a preference over all others we have tried
for such purposes. Yours Respectfully,

Dear Sir : You ask me for my opinion of " Sil
ver>s 'Mineral Paints," which you have put on my
Machine Shop and Planing Mill. I give you with
pleasure my full and hearty recommendation of it
as a preventive of Fire communicating from Chim
neys, or from adjoining buildings. The Paint which
you put on my roofs, has now become as hard as
slate, and I feel as secure from Fire, in this direc
tion, as is possible. A few weeks after the i roofs
had been painted, I made an experiment on two or
three shingles by placing them in the furnace under
the boilers; the result was, that the portion uncov
ered was entirly consumed, while the painted part
was apparently sound, though upon examination
the wood was found to be charred; the Paint how
ever was firm and but little blistered. L consider
this as severe a test as youi Paint can be put to,
and tinder the circumstances I do not hesitate to
commend it as an invaluable preventive against
Fire. Respectfully, &c.
(Signed,) AMBROSE SPENCER.

will find, by taking the Cherry Pectoral on going to
bed, they may be sure of sound, unbroken sleep,
and consequently refreshing rest. Great relief from
suffering, and an ultimate cure, is afforded to thous
ands who are thus afflicted, by this invaluable rem
edy.
, From its agreeable effect in these cases, many find
themselves unwilling to forego, its use when the
necessity for it ceased. •
From two eminent Pyhysicians in •
FAYETrEvILLE, TzNN., April 16th, 1851.
Sir:—We have given your Cherry Pectoral an
extensive trial in our practice, and find it to surpass
every other remedy we have for curing affections of
the respiratory organs.
To singers and public speakers this remedy is
invaluable, as by its action on the throat and lungs,
when taken in small quantities, it removes al
hoarseness in a fete hours and wonderlully in
creases the power and flexibility of. the voice.
Asthma is generally much relieved, and often
wholly cured by Cherry Pectoral. But there are
Some cases so obstinate as to yield entirely to no
medicine. Cherry Pectoral will cure them, if they
can be cured.
Bronchitis, or irritation or the throat and upper
portion of the lungs, my be cued by taking Cherry
Pectoral in small and frequent 'doses. The uncom
fortable oppression is soon relieved.
Rev. Dr. LANSING, of BROOKLYN, NEW YORK,
states I have seen the 'Cherry Pectoral cure
such cases of Asthma. and Brnochitis as leads me
to believed it can rarely fail to cure those diseases."
For Croup. Give an emetic of antimony, to he
followed by large and frequent doses of the Cherry
Pectoral, until it subdues the disease. If taken in
season, it will not fail to cure.
.Whooping cough may be broken up and soon
cured by the use of Cherry Pec.oral.
The influenza is speedily removed by this rem
edy. Numerous instances have been noticed where
whole families were protected from any serious
consequences, while their neighbors, without the
Cherry Pectoral, were suffering from the disease.
SALEM, Ohio, June 11th, 1051.
Dr. J. C. Ayer write to inform you of the
truly remarkable effects of your Cherry Pectoral in
this place, and in my own family. One of my
daughters was completely cured in three days of a
dreadful Whooping Cough, by taking it. Dr.
Means, one of our very best physicians freely states
that he considers it the best remedy we have for
pulmonary diseases, and that he has cured more
cases of Croup with it than any other medicine he
ever administered.
Our clergyman of the Baptist Church says that
during the run of Influenza here this seasons, he
has seen cures from your medicine he could
scarcely have believed without seeing.
'Yours respectfully, J. D: SINCLAIR,
Deputy Postmaster,
From the distinguished Professor of Chemistry
and Ilateria Medina, Bowdoin College. I have
found the Cherry Pectoral, as its ingredients show,
a powerful remedy for. colds, and coughs, and pul
monary diseases.
PARKER CLEVELAND, M. D.
-BRUNSWICK, Me., Feb. 5, 1847.
Dr. VALENTINE More, the widely celebrated
Professor of Surgery in the Medical College, New
York City, says It gives me pleasure to cer
tify the value and efficacy of Ayre's Cherry Pec
toral,' which I consider peculiarly adapted to cure
diseases of the Throat and Lungs."
cures or severe diseases upon me Lungs have
been effectej by Cherry Pectoral in such extreme
case as warrant the belief that a remedy has at
length been found that can be depended on to cure
the Coughs, Colds and Consumptions which carry
from our-midst thousands every year. It is indeed
a medicine to which the afflicted can look with
confidence for relief, and they should not fail- to
avail th. mselves of it.

Youth , Age, Style, Taste, Beauty
and Fashion.—The seasons of life should be
arranged like those of the year. In the spring 9f
youth, when all is lovely and gay, then as the
green cover is spread on all the face of smiling.na
ture, in brightness and beauty, en let the dress par
take of the season. Fine taste, as well as fashion,
decrees the necessity of nicely adapted garments
to age, circumstances and seasons. The man
whose head is silvered with age, wh'o feels not the
blood of youth dancing warmly in his veins, should
not run into extremes of dress, nor yet should he
permit his clothing to be so far behind the times as
to render him ridiculous. There isAt becoming
fashionable dress, suitab.e for the age and season.
of life as well as the seasons of the year. You can
be suited in handsome style in clothing that is well
and fashionably made, of good materials that will
fit well and become the figure and season, at the
great Clothing Bazaar ol
