Street Trees.
"Vre:lyistr to say . a few-arords more about plant
ing Street trees . , They should not be crowded too
closely together, -their future size being always
kept in mind. In setting them out, acme make
small boles for the roots of the young trees, as
they would for fence posts, and tramp around- them
the - same yellow clay which they dug out, and
thin a few years hence they will wonder why their
trees bale not expanded in grace and beauty like
the trees in the country. Thliee who have no ex•
perience in planting should ask the adviceof per
sons more intelligent on the subject.
In passing along Seventh street the other day,
we observed some fine young trees, which. bad
.biein.carefully planted opposite a: residence, very
Muth injured by having the bark hacked off.them
by some findal boy,s—but perhaps we have doge
the boys injustice, ruffian animals calling them
.
Idris men may have done the deed. Our city
Fatbers ought to pass an. Ordinance to protect such
-Theo; and make ecamples of all transgressors:
We have often thought that the-leading avenues
to our city should in adorned with trees. Suppose
the city authorities had paid out a trilling sum of
• nionhy fwenty years ago for setting handsome
shade trees along the Greensburg Turnpike as =far
as.the.two mile run, how the present gerferation
;would have thanked them. As - socin as Duquesne
_« 'ay is opened, a row of trees should-be planted
along the whole length of that street by the City,
and 'we feel'assured they will pay more than, their
cost in the taxes received froth the enhanced value
.of the adjoining property.
Our neighbors of Allegheny ought to arouse from
their Van. Winkle lethargy, and adorn. their noble
Commons.with trees, and instead of having them
parks for the pigs, make them , what the present
and alt funire generations hank them for- 7 ,

Mr. !tutor:-In the Alleghenian of the Pth, the
editors. have published a long article complaining
of the Managers of .the OleAllegheityßridge, for
declining their custom as yearly passengers,' and
Wish - to make - the publk believe that-it is -for the
purpose of muzzling their VZItT independent press. i
That the public may know the true cause, you will
oblige. me by-giving a place in your paper to the
following facts. - - ' '
-
Previoua'to the first 'day' of April, 1840, (at
which time Our year commences.) by a resolution
of the Masta,gers,all yearly toll was made payable'
in advance; at that time the Messrs. Kennedy
were Crossing as yearling.. They were repeatedly
asked to pay up; but without effect, except that
I Mr. J. B Kennedy some four months after his toll
should have been paid; told the collector that he
had a great deal of impudence to ask hint for toll.
They still continued to cross until the Uth of
Dec., When I told Mr. J B Kennedy that he must
either settle, his arrears or pay by the trip, as we
Would wait on him no longer. He then (some eight
months after it should have been paid) paid me,
with some considerable grumbling and the threat
ened vengeance of his mighty Press; the other Mr.
Kennedy avoided the Bridge from that time ex
cept on a Sabbath. The Board have also adopted
as a rule, that no - persons be taken as yearlings
who are indebted to the Bridge unless all arrears
are paid."
If the Messrs. Kennedy will pay to the compa
! ny., they will be treated the same as any other
person ; but from our experience of last year, we
would respectfully decline crediting either of them.
Yours, &c. K. W. COOK,
Aresessor of Old Allegheny Bridge.

For the. Morning Post
From the Firit Pennsylvania Regiment•
We publiA Irelov an extract of a! letter to the
Washington Union, written frpm the 111. S. bliip Al•
bang, (of VetaiCrno,,3lareb 14, which Freaks of
the movements of the - XV Penntylvania Regiment:
The enemy which VAT:nose been driven from
bill .to hill, and from stronghold to stronghold by 1
Genetal Pillow, fled across the valley, along which!
runs the railroad into the dense thicket , beyond,
and reorganized to some extent, under cover.of the;
eliappami, to dispute the passage of our troops to
the heights beyond, which overlook add command;
the city; en which heights a large force of Mexi-:
Can cavalry and infantry had been paratlitut for!
hours in a spirieof defiance: A considerable force
of the enemy had also taken position across the:,
railroad, where our forces would probably pass on
their way to the heights.
Leasing the Ist Tennessee regiment li ndef Col.!
Haskell, and the first Pennsylvania ri giment under I
Col...Wyncoop, descended to the railroad, driving
that portion of the'enerny who had taken posses-;
sion of it towards the city, and then beating off to i
the left thruegh the chappatal and towards the
heights. A brisk file was soon opened on both:
sides; but the impetuosity of the A Merican troops',
was perfectly irresistable and mem heming, olii
cers and men, rank...and tile, vying oi:h each other;
for the advance. All on foot, (for on horse could I,
• hold a footing there,) they ascended a steep at
artangle not less than forty five degtees, with the ;
sand knee deep at every step, drawing themselves
up by the roots and Lendoactail and briars that
cover the ground—all the while keeping tip an ac
tive fire upon the retstiating enemy. Gaining the
summit of the heights. the :Mexican force thew.
was found to be about IfICO. They attempted to
make a stand. General Pillow's command char;
. rd epos them, and put them again to flight. They
ralfaff briskly. aird were as briskly pursued, tint 1
the frowning batteries of the city Rani:tiled their
'pursuers that no oiler had yet been given to pro.
teed further; so they minimal to the sumit to slur.
rey the surrounding country, and witness a beauti

scene with impunity; for a brisk tire at shot and
shell was opened upon them, and kept tip until
dare. Taking advantage, however, of the unequal
surface of the sand, they so covered themselves as
to sustain little or no injury.

_ACTION —During the fire yesterday,
it Was deemed necessary to open a window skiver
in the third story of the smoke house, in order that
water might be thrown in. Crowbars, ladders,
poles. &e., were useless 'for the purpose; it . was
about to be given up, when a negro started up the
ladder, jumped into the second story, amidst a
thick volume of ;untie and flame (three engines
playing upon him at the same time.) and went up
stairs, pushed open the shutters and returned.—
The wind closeilthe shutter again, and again our
hero I Cliblmcd the same feat.
Probably, this act vas the means of saving
thousands of dollars to rich men; and probably the
poor African will never get a dime!
LinCENT.—Yesterday afternoon a negro was ar
rested by ollictr Johnson, of the Independents, for
taking, without leave, a pair of boots from a store
in Market street. lie was taken before Alderman
Steele and gave bail for his appearance.

TELP:I7I I / I Pll.—An experiment
with the Sub-marine Telegraph, at Portsmouth,
England, encourages the belief that the lightning
news cons i eyor will yet snake the circuit of the
globe. The account of it states:
The f,:et of the water acting as a ready return
conductor, was established beyond question; for, to
test this most thoroughly, .repeated experiments
were made, in the presence of the principal dock
yard authorities including the heads of the depart
metals. There can be no doubt, without reference
to distance, that water will act as a return conduct.
or in completing the circuit. Independent of the
simplicity of this sub marine telegraph, it had an
advantage which even the telegraphs on land do
not possess—in the event of accident, it can be
replaced in ten minutes. The success of the
trial here, has, we understand, detertimed the in
ventors to lay down their contemplated line across
the channel froth England to France under the
sanction of the respective governments.

'•So mild has the winter been, that the Copper
Coast might readily have been. mistaken fur the
vicinity of Hamilton, though it is situated in the
same degree of latitude with Quebec. This apps•

the opinion of the writer, by the extiethe western

in Augusta, where Forrest was playing Damon to
a crowded audience. The threatre being small,
and in the senate scene there were but six senators
present, including the president. When the vote
was taken to make Dyonisius king, two were in
favor, and two with Damon were against it; but
the President declared the motion carried, which
being contrary to parliamentary usuges and South
ern doctrines, so shocked the audience, that they
applauded Oxley most uproariously, and were
quite cool towards Forrest. who really was. not
to blame in the matter—he voting against Dyonis
ins without any authority to set aside his election.

Tnc NfsesnoxrArr.—ln speaking of the report
that cost of freight on provisions for Ireland ship.
ped by this vessel will be repaid by the British
Government, the .Union says:—
We do not speak, upon this point, without some
knowledge of the wishes of the Administration.
They protest against such an act. They will lis
ten to no such idea. They regard it as calculated
to disgrace the navy; to lower us in the eyes of
Great Blasi° •'
and to cast a blur upon the act it
self, and the character of our government. • •
If it be supposed that the British government
will not admit these provisions without carrying
not their rule of paying the freight upon them,
then we have no doubt that our government will
instruct our minister in London to ask it as a fa
vor of ministers to admit her without advancing-0
cent of freight to the shipper.
