rated by a staunch and ster
ling4enificiit Of-the "olden time," for our complai:
same in according , to our opponents the name of
so'llaiteringly given to them by bolts
Warscts VV.an a, some years since. "You treat them,
'mach too kindly;'- he often says to us; ' , not only
ycinbut all on rde oc retie editors ilave fallen into the
tame. error: - .While:the federalists [he will nottall
them'ariithing eise] ransack: and .exhaust -every
receptatie of bard names, to find opprobrious epi•
theti-ihr M, you, persist in giving them the gentle
horiorable title of "whig." They call us "In
co-focos,” ‘barn-burners"-or anything that may be
used es - in 'mulling nick:name, instead of the op
pellation Danarrot, to which we are justly entitled
-=and even-that narne'their federal fore-fathers gave
ao.-Vith,the intention . '"of conveying obloquy and re
winch. While you, do this, he continues, "it is
colieh ensier,for men to desert the democratic stall•
card_ than it-would be if parties were rightly Call
e& A, man who would never be induced to join
ilie-WeriaV.ranks. slides,, with great facility into
the - ranks of the "whip." The first implies every
Wing odious in politics, and recalls the ' , reign of
terror'—the second is - a title made venerable by
those who Were on their country's side in the times
that tried men's souls. The federalists have no
right to mask their dangerous designs under this
revected nanie,"
We must freelyconfess our old friend is correct
in his reasoning. There is no sort of fitness in
permitting the party adhering to all theheresies of
ancient federalism, to assume the title of " whig,"
merely to veil their insidious purposes. When the
jiteople-cif this country first ranged themselves in
par& lines, the federalists stood boldly forth as the
advocates of a strong central government—they
- would have made the State governments merema
chines to' register and enforce the edicts of •the
preme - porCer at-the centre. They would bare had,'
a President and a Senator for life,—they would
hire - muzzled the press,—they would have prevent
ed public meetings for the disCussion of public
griesances,—they would have had odious laws
abOut foreigners,—they would have a great finan
cial engine like the Bank of England, controlling
and controlled by the ruling powers,—in short,
they would have taken England for their model in
all things. The greatest latitude of opinion in
their party may be set forth by the respective
views of ALEXAInna 111XILTON and of Jogs
Anaxs:
' , Purge the British Constitution,' said Adams.
"of some of its corruptions, and it will be the best
government on earth."
' , Purge the British Constiution," said Hamilton,
of the I
corruptions to which you allude, and it
will be an impracticable government."
On the . other hand, the primitive republicans.
with JeTerson at their head, went strongly for re
serving power to the States and limiting that of
the central governmmt- r -for, limiting the Presi
dential and Senatorial terms—for the liberty of
the press and of speech—for liberal naturalization
laws—and against a great central paper-money
Bank. On theie principles they triumphed, and
on this platform they stand at this very day.—
ReptibliCauism of 'OS and 1501, is identical with
Bemocracy of to-day, in all these principles—
The'-modern vhigs" are federalists in principle
and nothing else—and federalists they should be
called. However, they may strive to conceal their
wishes—they are, like the ‘'federalists of old, in
favor or a national paper-money Bank,—stringent
naturalization laws, and a strong federal govern
ment. Who will not agree with the old democrat
alluded to above, that it is apiece of courtesy un
deserved .by our opponents, and injurious to our.
selves, to dignify them with the name of "whigs.-
CC' Tne Morning Telegraph is the title of a new
federal paper which has just been ushered into ex
istence in,this city, and Is to be, we learn, the organ
of the great mass of the party, who have become
disgusted with eni personalities and obscenities of
the other federal papers. The Telegraph, we un
derstand, has met with great encouragement thus
far from its part), arid is ti backed lip" by some
of our wealthiest citizens, who are determined in
this manner to "head oIT, - (n. /a Potts,) the other
opposition. papers. Such is the talk.
The paper is under the editorial supervision of
a distinguished member of the Pittsburgh Bar,
. whose literary taste is only equalled by his legal
acquirements. We have not the least doubt but
that it will send its lightning along every wire and
nerve of the great federal party, and electrify tbein
'with its spice and wisdom.
• * irrrThe Morning Telegraph of yesterday has n
leader in reference to the call for troops for the
Mexican war, in which the Editor applies some
harsh epithets to the President, which we did not
expedt from so amiable a gentleman. In reference
to the sending of troops to Mexico, the editor says,
"this should have been done long since;" and farth,
er, on he says, "glorious•victpries have been achie.
• ved_ by our gallant little tirmy," &c. Now this is
curious reasoning. The editor thinks more troops
shonld have beensent to Mexico long since, yet
in the same:breath he admits that our little army
has achieved glorious victories! Suppose, neigh
bor, our army bad been twice or thrice as large,
could - it have , made the victories more glorious?
We thl* not; but on the contrary, if 14,000:0

cryThe_nglish papers received by the late ar

for the beople of Mexico, od account the ex

extreme for the United States to resent the long
standing insults and injuries which have been of
fered to us by Mexico. This comes with ill -grace
from a nation whose standing army was Marched
to the interior of India, to shoot down aniinoffen
sive people, because they would not swallow their
poisonous drugs!

" Andes, Delaware county, was the scene of the
deplorable affray which resulted in the death of
Sheriff Steele. last year. It was a vihig town of
old, giving 26_2 for Clay, and 134 for Polk. It now
gives 309 Young—or, more than its total rote at any

dechrre Delaware again in a state of insurrection!'
Mn. A.:TD Ins. 3 , lrr.ns were both in New Yolk

Etoiiwn —Anson, the historian, says that the
immense debt under which England now staggers
is inconsistent with the maintenance of national

tional debt. •

From Santa Fe--Thi Mormens.-The Mormon
battalion, under Col. Smith,. as we learn from the
St: Louis papers of the 12th, arrived at Santa Fe
on the Bth. The - commanding officers speak in
the highest -terms otthe conduct and good order of
these troops, and say that with time for drilling,
they will be every way equal to the regular soldiers.
The Battallion was turned over to the command
of Capt. Cooke, who, with a portion iof Col. Price's
regiment-600 men in all, under the command of
Col. Price—were to leave in a few days for Cali
fcirrtia,Cite. Aorvei.
Nl , :e spent a half. hour very pleasantly yester
day afternoon, in the Furniture Waierootna of
-Messrs. Kane & Roberts. Previous. to this ' , Asa
we bad no knowledge of the extent and impor
tance of this branch of manufacturing in this ci
ty. It is a -great establishment,—we her
greater is not on this side the mountains.
The manufacturing building is on Front street,
and runs back to Water.. The machinery is Work . :
ed by steam, of cour s e, and as many as -fifty
workmen 'are constantly employed. They ere!
now busy with furniture for the Monongahela
House, which is superb.
The Saloons on:Third street, second and third
stories, are worth a call. The newest- nnd most
rnagnificent styles of furniture are there exhibited.
We were struck particularly with the Mammoth
Bedsteads. These huge rose wood and mahogany
monsters are indeed a curiosity, though Mr. Kane
does not warrant them to afford a more refreshing
sleep than the plain old four dollar article. But
people disregard expense when their taste for the
I beautiful desires gratification. The Tete a Tete
looked very comfortable; the name indicates their
luse. The Dirans had the appearance of comfort
and elegance.
But we cannot go into detail for fear of making
our article too long. SufEce it to say, they offer
for inspection, French, English and American So_
fas'
Pier, Centre and Sofa Tables, Dressing Bureaus,
, a great variety of chairs, &c., &c. Other articles
worthy of notice we saw which we cannot now
call to memory.
We would recommend our friends, who wish to
it out their dwellings, to the establiehment of
Messrs. Kane & Roberts, Third street.
Does the Post man mean that the Aldermen
are responsible for the expenditures of the money
raised by the Overseers of the Poor? And yet
this is the only way he undertakes to prove that
the overse"r is not •nriesponsible." We repeat that
since Ashhridge came into office the taxes have
been raised from P. and $lO,OOO to $20.000, which
he can see, if he wilt take upon him to look. We
not assail this Mr. Ashbridge. The assault was
made by the • Post. who, in connection with the
well known facts sic have stated. announced that
he had made a "raise pecuniarily." We know no
thing atout his at-counts; but we know that S9uiooo,
was required before the poor house farm was pur•
chased so that no part of it was needed on that ac•
count. But it was the awkwardness of annotate
ing. in intimate connection with the facts under
which our tax payers were complaining, that he
hail made a -'raise," that caused 'our surprise. His
accounts, for all See koaw may be right enough, but
the Punt, when he stated the -raise mode by him,
should. have
was
something about how or
where it was made; then alt would have been
ij. We copy the article of the American entire
that the public may have the benefit of the infor
mation contained in it. Our readers can judge of
the fairness of this attack upon Capt. Ashbridge
by reading the abose reply of Biddle to our article
of yesterday.
We italicise parts of two sentences to show that
he oonfesses himself ignorant of the whole matter
about which he write,
Any reasonable man who will re:er to our squib
which gate origin to this controversy, will see at
once how grossly our meaning has been perverted
by the American.
We have done with this matter for the present.

Merchants' Exchange.—Yesterday morning we
published the proceedings of the meeting held a!
the Board of Trade Rooms. on Thursday evening,
19th inst., in relation to the contemplated Es-
change. ,
The public appear not to have understood the
arms upon which capitalists have, been asked to
aid in this enterprise. At this meeting, it will be
observed, the committee appointed with instruc
tions to report a plan of organization, submitted
such an one as we think will insure the speedy
commencement of the Exchange buildings. ,
By re:erence to the proceedings it will be ob.
served that capital, with its reward of live per cent,
is secured by mortgage. This it is thought will
lender the stock of the corporation a good invest
ment; and as there is "a plethora" of money in
the market, we much mistake the energy of our
citizens if this movement does not result in suc.
We trust that at the meeting to be held on the
let of next month something decisive may be re
solved upon.
The Rende:rous.—Our city has been selected
by the Secretary of War as the Rendeivous of the
Pennsylvania troops.
We understand that the members of our volun
teer Companies are in gicat glee at the prospect
of being called upon by Gov. :hunk to start for
the wars. We trust, since soldiers must be had
for the country's defence, that the ambition of the
Pit4igisirt olumeers may be gratified. We guar
antee that all who go from the smoky city will
acquit themselves as LeConles Soldiers and pat lots.
—The Union says the troops which compose the
nine regiments, are to serve during the war, and
are estimated to amount to 13,500 to 7,1)00.
.4 Rumor was in circulation in the early part of
the week that a man who was buried from a dog
gery in the lower part of the city, had come to
his death by violent means. Coroner Richardson
eery properly took measures to investigate the
matter, and ascertained from the physician who
attended deceased that his death was occasioned
by intemperance, and that he died in a drunken
tit.—Ltispaich.

and two evening papers. We hope they may all
succeed; and indeed they look healthy enough
to live these hundred year.

man who is in prison, made an assault upon Mr.
Forsythe, the jailor, which fortunately did no in

The quantity of cotton offered for trial Nvas ton
small to admit of a repetition of the experiments.
The above remits are, therefore, to be regarded as
only approximatise. To give a lair indication of
the force of this new explosive substance, it would
be necessary to make experiments as to the best
mode of using it in the gun. eipeciallywith regard
to the proper degree of compression by ramming.
A comparison of the results of 'the lwo charges of
grains shows, as might be anticipated, a mark
ed variation produced by different degrees of com
pression. The ball and wad occupying. in every
case, a height of about of aMinch, the space oc
cupied by the cotton or the ;gunpowder may be de
duced from the height of the charge given in the
table.
From these trials the gun-cotton seems to pro
duce, in the musket, an efibct equal to about twice
its weight of good rifle powder. This cotton leaves
a small quantity of a dark-cored residuum in the
musket bariek extending from the breech to about
half the length of the barrel; this residuum is easily
removed by wiping the barrel with a rag. The
combustion of the gun cotton is unattended with
smoke; the report made by it appeared to me
sharper than that produced hyi gunpowder.
It may be proper to add that Mr. Robertson does
not consider this sample of the giin-cotton to lie of
the best quality. Respectfully; your obit serv't.,
