We have.from time to tune publiihed extracts loins 'Foreign journals; giving details of the heart rendlng : distress Which exists in. the Emerald Isle. Thaextent of . that farnine and distress is indeed terrible. Hundreds and thousands are dying in districts 'where health and plenty before existed.— The cries of the suffering have been heard on this side of the water, and our truly liberal and philan thropic people, have given of their rich abundance. The Poor and the wealthy have alike contributed to the fund for-alleviating the awful situation of the famishing poor of Ireland, bitch has been done, we say,. butthe good work should not Stop. It is certain that the distress will continue 'for a long time to come, as it will be a good while be fore the new crop of potatoes will come into mar het. Indeed, it is a matter of great doubt whether the milli) . Ireland will hereafter produce such abotsdant crops tut heretofore. Be that as it may, a woe, want . and misery" are now resting upon that beautiful We have the means, and it _ layette. duty to givi a portion of the store Which . God has given us to save the lives of our brethren Tiara horrible death by starvation. , The citizens of -Pittsburgh have not contributed one' teatll as much as they can afford to the Irish Relief fund. •The'apathy on the Subject is too vi-1 sable:' A few kind-hearted individuals have been very vigilant, but' the great mass al our citizens have been lukewarm and indifferent. Major'Llartiza, Treasurer of the Relief Fund, publishes another list of contributions in this city, - amounting to about $5,460. $l,OOO of this sum ...Wait collected in St. Paul's (Catholic) Church, and paid over by Bishop O'Connor. This was in -ad. dition to $465 before collected in that church: There are a great number of wealthy congrega tiontiirf and about Pittsburgh, and if they exhibit tire' sante degree of liberality as St. Paul's, the , name of our city will stand higher and shine brighter than . it does at - present for works of clia- 1 city. We are informed that Bishop o•Connor in tends taking a tour through the country, for the purpose' of addressing the people onthis momen tous topic.' We truit that other Christian minis ters Will' be equally as zealouS. Let them lap aside all sectarian feeling and go to work shout der to shoulder and heart to, heart, in this noble ;and charitable enterprise. if -At the.meeting in the First - Presbyterian church; a ;reek or two since, it was resolved that commit-I tees should be appoinied to visit the country and "bold meetings. We have not learned what hasi . been done in the country; but we have every rea- 1 son to believe that if the proper efforts ate made • the un cotrikwill do better than the city. We bane not heard of any public movement be ing pada by our citizens in behalf of the poor of _ Soatlaid. It is a fact, though not generally known, that the greatest distress prevails in Scotland at this time.,, The -destitution is not so great. as in Ireland, but still they are entitled to aid and syna- 1 pithy at our bands. A very respectable and intel . Boit clergyman in Allegheny city informed us yestirdaY that he intended on next Sabbath to call the fittetition of his congregation to the condition of the ,;;...ar of Scotland, and have a collection ' raised to relieve their wants. We trust the exam ple.kill be followed. The Scotch are our breth ren as well as the Irish. The same kind Provi dence made us all. MEM , '-' =Ell :j: ~ Vii' y .. x .4F= :.

An important law case was tried in Columbi ana notinty, 'Ohba, last week, against Dr. William 'Robertson, of - Hanover, for mal-practice: as a sur geon; in which the jury rendered a verdict of Two :non:sand Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars for the Pljntiff. -'=The action was for mal-treatment of a disloca &ion of the knee joint, which resulted in amputa tion of the limb.' The trial produced great excite 'tient, having commenced on Monday morning, and the verdict being rendered Sunday afternoon, the argument having been closed by Mr. Stanton, for the plaintiff, on Saturday evening. There was much contrariety as usual, among the professional a great number of whom were examine& as -witnesoes. . . The - case was conducted on =the part of the .plaintiff by Stanton, Mason, and Umbstetter, and "blEyring, Hartshonl, and Belden, for defendant. • WL Victory.

But we' mourn `over the defeat of those patriots who fought so gallantly against the Mexican Whig leaders, Dix on, Smith, itockwell, and whose feelings were so much enliitec: on . the side of their. Mexi can allies, that they voted against the:supplies and men to succor , our army in Mexico. Cr The President has very ' properly declined pardoning — Neva Hildreth Smith, convicted at Washington'of fraud and forgery, by which he oh. tamed certain unclaimed dividends, in the 'United States Treasury. !

Gov. Charles Bent and twenty. five. Americans, are the victims Of, a cold-blooded assassinrition. Among the dead is L. L. Waldot a citizen of our county, and brother;to Capt. David Waldo, of Col. Doniphan's regiment 1 Mr:Caldwell left F.l Passo on the 1211ilanuary. and Santa Fe on the 3d FehruarY—he saw noth ing of *Capt. Sublette, and-heard nothing of his whereabouts. He left Col. Doniphan in possession of. El Passo waiting for the Artillery to arrive, when he intended to move for Chihuahua. Noth ing was known in New Mexico of the change in Gen: Wool's position. Mr., Caldwell learned from a reliable squrce. that they had declined putting Mr. James Magof fin on trial for treason, and that lie was at large in Chihuahua. The insurrectionists consisted of about '2,000 men, and started for Santa Fe. Col. Price sent out about 300 men to quell them; they met about 25 miles frOm Santa Fe, when an pngagenient took plaCe—the Mexicans drew up 2,000 strong, but at the first fire, from our brave IVlisSouri boys, thirty six of them fell dead, and the balance fled. Capt. Morin, of Platte, *ho leas in command. pursued them through the Moro valley, and burned to ashed every house, town an 4, ranchero in his pith. The inhabitants fled to the mountains. where - they are bound to f,tarvt, - as Morin leaves them nothing whatever to subsist on—a just retri- Ibution for their assassination 01 innocent people. •I As Mr. Caldwell was passing out, he heard at a distance, the.suund of arfillery,iand learned, from rumor in the edge of the settlements, that the: American army bad whipped ithem worse than ever. Capt . . Hendly, of Ray county volunteers, was the only one killed on our side, and some seven slightly wounded. The following we copy from the St. Louis Union of the 30th ult Ismarssmatsca, March 23,1847. Harm Editors—l hasten "to give you intelli gence from the'plains. • Mr. Thomas Caldwell has just arrived' and confiribithOad news of the mas sacre of Americans at Taos.; Gov. Bent and some twentSve others *ere kit ed at Taos; and seven in the 'valley of the Moro. -Mr. Caldwell assisted in the btirial of the dead bo dy, of his friend and countryman, L. L. Waldo, but [ the body of Mr. Prcwitt had not been found, though it was thought he was murdered also.— Some of the volunteer• grazing parties it wos thought were also killed. 1 The-i insurrectionist party consisted of about ' 2000 men, and news reaching Fol. Price, that they were marching on Santa Fe, be sent out 300 men under command of Capt. Morin, of Platte. They. met the Mexican force about 25 miles from Santa Fe; and killed 30 the first fire, , , when the cowardly scoundrels fled; the American', force pursuing and' laying waste every ranche, town and house in their path, leaving not an ear of corn, or fowl, or any flesh thr them to subsist on—U just and merited retribution for'their assassinations. NO doubt the city of Taos 5s now in ashes. as! our Missollti boys had caused the smoke from theirl burning houses to ascend froM a thousand hills ;I I the inhabitants in the Moro Valley—men, women I, alad • children—had fled to the mountains. Mr. Caldwell had left Col. Doniphan at El Passo on the 12th of January waiting! for the artillery cont. panies to arrive, when he intended to march for Chihuahua. He thinks that Doniphan, ere this, has taken Chihuahua, or hoe been taken himself. We may await with trembling• anxiety, a long time,, I fear, for the result ofhazardous expedition. Capt. Sublette had not arrived at Santa Fe when Mr. Caldwell left, February:Sd ; fears are enter tained that he may have fallen into the hands of Mexicans on his entering Trios valley.

The roar they make may be compared to that of a tornado, and every man within a quarter of a mile of the spot where they strike, thinkS they are about io fall on his individual head. The consequence is. that there is a general scampering to and fro—l mean when the men are lying idly about camp—and so deceptive is the sound thiit one is just as apt to run directly tol.vards as Item ' i , them. CAMP imAn VERA Cur z, March 15—morning. S Another night has passed off quietly, no alarm of consequence disturbing the lines. The enemy is occasionalty throwing round shot and shell, yet with lirtle effect. One of the latter, and of the heaviest size, struck directly in the midst of the r Bth infantry, last night, but did not injure a man. Yesterday, about 3 o'clock, P. M., Capt. Lee, of the Engineers, was senLby Gen. Scott with letters for the French and Spanish consuls at Vera Cruz.

MUNON'S HOUSE AT CHALFONT. It says much for the proprietors of the cottage at Chalfont, and for the feelings of the country in general, that this simple dwelling has been sa credly preserved to this time. You see that all the others near it are much tiIOTE modern. This is of the old framed-timber kind, and is known, not only by the whole village; but the whale country round, as Miltons house. Mr. Dunster, in the additions of his edition of "Paradiseßegained," says that the cottage of Chalfont "is not pleasantly Situated; that the adjacent country is extremely pleasant; but the immediate spot is as little picturesque or pleasing as can be imagined." He might have re collected that it could signify very little to Milton, whether.the spot was picturesque or not, if it were quiet, and had a good air; for Milton Was, and had been long, quite blind. But, in fact, the situation, though not remarkably striking, is by no means unpleasing. It is. the first cottage on the right 'hand as you descend the road from Beaconsfield to Chalfont St. Giles. Standing a little above the'cottage,the view be fore you. is very interesting. The .quiet old agri cultural village oftnalfont lies in the valley, amid woody uplands, which are seen all round. The cottage stands facing you, with its gable turned to the road, and fronting into its little garden and field. A row of ordinary, cottages is built at: its back, and face the - road below. To the right, as. rends the grass field mentioned; but this, with exten-, sive old orchards above the house, is pleasing to the eye, presenting an idea of quiet, rural repose, and ] of meditative walks in the shade of the orch ard trees, or up the field, to the breezy height a bove. Opposite to the house, on the other side of the way, is a:wheelwrightS dwelling, with his tim ber reared amongst old trees, and above it a chalk pit, grown about,with bushes. This is as rural as I you can desire. The old house is covered in. front with a vine; bears all the marks of antiquity; and is said by its inhabitant, a tailor, to have been but little altered. There was, he says, an old porch at the door, which stood till it fell with age. Here we may well imagine Milton sitting, in the sunny weather, as at Bunhill Fields, and enjoying the warmth, and the calm sweet air. Could he have seenthe view which here presented itself, it would have been agreeable; for though in this di rection the ascending ground shuts out the distant prospect, its green and woody upland would be it self a pleasant object of contemplationi shutting out all else, and favorable to thought. The houses. below consists of two rooms, the one on the left,, next to the road, a spacious one, though low, and', with its small diamond casements suggesting to: you that it is much as when stilton inhabited it., Here he no dotiht lived principally; and to all pro bability, here was " Faradise Regained " dictated to his amanuensis, most likely at this time his wife, Elizabeth Mipslndi. The worthy tailor and his apprentice were now mounted on a table in it, busily pursuing their labor. —ll%. Hotritrs Rotors and Haunts of British Poets. Interesting Xittiquarian Discorery.—The work. men employed-in making excavations on the Cale donian Railway, in the United Kingdom, discover. ed, a few miles, above Bentock, some highly inte resting relics of antiquity. The tirst object which attracted attention was the remains of what ap. peared to have been the foundation of a house.— Some copper coins were next turned up about the size of our halfpennies; on one 4ide there is a male head, probably of one of the Emperors, and on the reverse, uemsar Romm." A sword was; next discovered, which appears to be formed of; brass. By far the most interesting discovery, how.; ever, was that of a small stone trough, inverted and placed upon a flat block of the same material,' which was found to contain a brazen or bronze' case, round in its form, two feet in length, and six inches in diameter. Within this case was a manuscript, or rather book, written on vellum, in rolls, as was the Roman custom, and each roll con nected with the other by a slip of the same mate rial. It is altogether about 30 feet in length and 2 in breadth. The writing is beautifully executed in. the Latin language, and at the top, the words, -Historia Ronne," in large characters, are quite distinct. A cursory examination has led some to suppose that it is a copy of part of Livy's celebra ted History; and as it is expected that the whole of the manuscript can be deciphered, perchance some 'of the lost books of the Roman historian may be now restored to the literary world. A small manuscript was also found in the case, also written on parchment, and about a foot square in size, but the writing of this is very illegible; on the back are the words "Ad Ag,ri colam." The alleged Consistence of Man and the lilegathe• riuni, is a question that has caused "a considerable sensation in the minds of the scientific. Mr. ',T ELT. addresses a communicat.on to the "London Times," in:which he treats of this subject and re. fers to an article from an American paper recently copied into 'the London "Athenaeum," announcing the discovery in this country of fossil human hone associated with the remains of the Megatherium and other extinct quadrupeds. Prof. Lyell feels sure that this story relates to a part of a human pelvis which he saw at Natchez, in March, 1846,1 while visiting this country—and, on examining carefully into the evidence, he came to the conclu sion that the proofs of the co•existence of the litt. l man individual with the Megatherium and other extinct -quadrupeds found in the vicinity was alto gether unsatisfactory, holding to the doctrine of ac cidental association, and giving cogent reasons for his opinion.
