LEWIS *E17.111.A.N, Allegheny
We have chosen the city of the Three Rivers,
the "Iron City," for an abiding place. R'hererer
elsewhere our lot has been Cast, our heart has been
here. for memory fondly cherished the recollection
oPincidents and scenes connected_ with. Pittsburgh
and the days .of our early manhood. When con,
ducting a public press in other places, we always
read the Pittsburgh papers first, and by opposition
prints, from our frequent allusions to this city, we
hare been sneeringly called the "Pittsburgh edi
tor, Sci." The cause of this bias is easily account
ed Here 'ire passed Molest years of our ap
prentichshipns a printer, and we worked as a join
neyrnan in more offices than one. After an . ab
sence of a few years, we returned to this 'place and
- s .
,-,.
spent in it between two and three years in the
study of the law; contracting friendships which we
hope never will be broken—friendships:which, in
deed, induced us in a great measure to make it our
borne:
, 1
1.:
- t
:When tie heard of the Great Fire which passed
over Pittsburgh. destroying the labor and accumu
lations of life -times, we felt the calamitous blow
as keenly as if we had been a sufferer and had wit:
sussed the awful scene. We hastened here and
beheld the smoking ruins filled with laborers, •dnd
workmen upon' the walls of a new city. We felt i
proud of
,the spirit:of such it people, and knew'
that men of such iron nerves, under no circum
stancek:Fould be broken down. Again we visited
PittsbUrgh, and its long streets of elegant ware
houses and magnificent hotels, tar surpassing those
which, were destroyed, everywhere met our eyes in
the “Barit District." The work seemed that of
enchantment. ' The MonOngabela Bridge and the
.tonongabela Route appeared to us more like the
tabled creations of the Arabian Nights than real
and' substantial things, the result of indomita
ble individual enterprise.„ But the flourishing con
dition Of the city was not alone to be seen in the
“Burut District." . - The environs every where, but
particularly the Sixth Ward, chewed the rapid
stride of improvement, and the city of Allegheny
was out of her teens and no longer a “little sister."
The march of Pittsburgh is onward, and who can
tell where she will- stop in-her magnificent career!
A railroad connexion with the Atlantic and the
Lakes will soon make this city the greatestinland
thoroughfare In the Union, and the greatest com
mercial city in the West. At the head of the
Ohio, and commanding the Mississippi Valley, with
such noble tributarie. as the- Allegheny and the
ItlOnongahela, covering her wharves with their tins
bei-, iron and coal; with the great Pennsylvania
Canal, the Cross Cut Canal, the Er;e Extension—
all bringing treasures to her feet, and affording fa•
citifies for almost unbounded enterprise; who can
doubt the greatness of her destiny. A canal is in
progress of construction, which we understand is
not appreciated here, but which, when completed,
wilt be of vast advantage to this city; we mean
the Sandy and Beaver. Every connexion with
Ohio by canal or railroad, every link which may
bind us with that great agricultural state, will be
a conductor of inestimable riches to this busy mart
of industry. We say to the Citizens of Pittsburgh,
look more to Ohio and the West! Remember
Ohio has a population of nearly two millions, and
forty thousand miles Of rich territory. Remem
ber, also, that she is pierced with a thousand miles
of excellent canals, and has turned her attention
to rail; roads; and while her sister states slumber
she is exerting a wakeful intelligence, planning with
skill and executing with vigor and economy. If
we court a closer alliance with Ohio, a state that
is capable of supporting a population of twelve
millions,-And bind her to us with. hanfts of iron, a
market..ivill be afforded fol. the products of our
I
manufactories which no' fond m rival can succeed in
gaming.
But we ramble. We have chosen this city for
an abiding place, for ever here we met with the
open hand, the cordial welcome; and though we
have been a citizen of another state, and have been
affected by its interestri, yet we can say in all truth
this has always been the home of our heart. One
that has once lived in Pittsburgh can never forget
it. With the fires of many furnaces radiating ny,
- night, and a pillar of smoke rising over it by day,
the hissing of steam and the eternal clank of the
, anvil, there is something enticing and congenial
to the man of .industry. But the lover of nature
can also be satisfied. IVil an atmosphere of the.
highest salubrity. Pitaurgh _ has around it- a
teertery or the most enchanting loveliness. Its
.winding• rivers and its picturesque bills, noble,
hold and beautiful; from every point of which new
tharMs arise; captivate the heart and delight the
- imagination. , Add Wits natural 'scenery its mine
ral Wealth and its unparalelled commercial and
rnannfacturing advantages, and to these, the pro•
v4rbial industry and integrity, of its citizen; and a
stranger has in Pittsburgh 'a point of attraction,
to - hick; even if no Other motive than mercenary en
terprise ,protripted him, he would desire to rifake
it his Hoare
13.1vferi Doos, for.reveral.days past have been
quite plenti in the city.
.We heard of a gentle
man being bitten by a dog supposed to have been,
rabid, on Smithfield street, on Tuesday last. Three
persons within the last week have died with that
most horrible of all diseases, the, hydrophobia, and
still we do not hear of the city authorities putting
into erect the ordnance passed by the
.cotinoil,au
.tharising and paying city officers for killing dogs.
It is certainly time that some active means should
be taken to rid the city of the innumerable 'quan
tity of :curs whichinfeif Ma streets, and snail,..'at

Since thepresent administration came into pow

forward for discussion and settlement, than - under

Tellmatt PA Ic!—Flour and Grain in New
Rec.—The N. Y. .gxpress of Thursday evening
says:
The demand for bread stuff is as active as ever.
About 2.0,1.00 hbls. 111 - flour have been taken the
last few days; and principally for export, at $.1,50
and the demand continues unabated. The supplies
have fallen'off, and are now quite moderate.
Corn has advanced and sells readily for both ex
port and home consumption. There is now a cer.
tainty that there will; be a good export demand for ;
Rye during the whole season. The failtire of the
crop in Holland will Cause the demand to continue.
Freights are very firm; some of the ship owners
are getting 2s. 6d. freight for flour to Liierpool.
-Thus it seems, notwithstanding the wicked at
tempt to get up a panic on the part of dishonest
federal politicians, the prospects of the farmer are
becoming brighter and brighter.

How much more Ooble a purpose is this, than
the nursing of the indolent ease of the great volup

From its banks of ea.tth this gardener will draw
