Business Prospects.
our oldest and most substantial business men
!say that the, past season was amongst the most
!Prosperous that they ever witnessed in Pittsburgh.
'iWhen we take into xonsideration the fact, that a
!little over two fears ago, one third of the city was
is Smouldering heap of ruins; and the earnings and
.accumulations of years 'were in .a moment swept
away by the devouring element—we are struck
with astonishment at the advancement and Wl
iprovement•we see around us on every tide. Those
jwho lost the heaviest by the fire, are now doing the
!most prosperous business. That calamity, instead
!of causing ruin and dismay, only afforded an op
!portunity far our enterprising citizens to show to
!the world the kind of stuff they Were made of.
!While yet the' fire was blazing, and the smoke as
le.ending from the dark and gloomy ruins, the foun
datiou of it new city was laid, and beautiful and
laitbstatitial edifices arose as if by enchantment!
We express but the general belief when we say
Mutt the Great Fire of April 10, 1645, was a real
benefit to Pittsburgh. The business transacted
blast year was nearly as heavy as during any two
Irma previous to the fire; and for proof of this
lire have only to examine the books of the Collec
tore and Custom House officers.
From all-the information we can gather, we are
satisfied that the present year's business willexceed
that of last year. The merchants, manufacturers,
mechanics, and all classes of citizens, are in most
excellent spirits, and are looking forward with
bright anticipations to the future. The merchants
are laying in heavy stocks of goods, and as they
are generally purchasing for cash, they will be en
abled to sell at a very low profit for the same "com
modity." The cash business has been pretty gen.!
erally adopted in this city of late years,—where,
credit is given, it is only for a short time, to per
eons of unquestionable honesty. Merchants from
abroad may rest assured that they will have no
difficulty this fall in finding, in the Pittsburgh
market, lieavy stocks of goods of every descrip
tion ;—and they should remember the old adage,
they may "go further and fare worse."
All that is now wanting to make Pittsburgh one
of the foremost cities in the Union, is the comple .
tion of the Railroads to the East and West. The
Central Railroad, betweerrthis city and Philadel
phia, is now, in part, under contract ; and from the
known energy and enterprise of those who have
the stork in hand, there is no doubt but that it will
be pushed forward without any unnecessary delay.
We must have a Railroad to the West, if for no
other reason than that of "heading Baltimore in
her present movements. • " Now is the day and the
hop." for our citizens -to interest themselves in
these great works of irr.provement. Delays are
too often dangerous!
Tar. BAN ancrr Law.—The Gazette of yester
day, says:—
" There are party men who have received the
benefits of this act, who have denounced it since
its passage. To such we say, act as - if such a law
had never existed. Pay your back debts, if you
are able to do so, and if not, give legal, and tangi
ble evidence that you owe them : Otherwise here
after forever hold your peace."
The above must evidently refer to Joszeti W.
Psi-7.0s of Cumberland county, the federal candi
date for Canal Commissoner. That gentleman
took the benefit of Gen. James Irvin's Bankrupt
Law to the tune of near TWENTY TWO THOU
SAND DOLLARS; and since then, it is said. he
bas become abundantly able to pay his old debts,
but utterly refuses to do so. He will not even
"give legal, tangible evidence that he owes them,"
and when a poor farmer in that section of the
_country, about a year ago, affered to receive 125 per
cent. on his claim, and give a receipt in full, Pat
ton replied, with the imperial air of a p.esar, "No,
sir, you are paid already—l never pay lebts over
.again,"—turned upon his heel, and walked away!
This was told us by a-gentleman who -witnessed
the interview. Was this exactly honest? What
is your opinion, good Master Brooks?
c
05. John H. Wood has commenced the pub!i
cation of a paper in Louisville, to advocate the
claims of Gen. Taylor. Poor Wood! a clever
fellow as ever lived,—he has always been the dupe
and tool of others—performing the lal or, but not
gathering the harvest. Within ten years past, he
has been the editor or as many papers, and lost
time and money on them all!
• S•LL or • P•een MILL.—The Virginia Paper
Mill, South Wheeling, was last Saturday sold to
Messrs. Bonham and Lambdin, for the sum of $6,-
400, a moderate price, and yet a favorable sale
considering the situation of the trust. The pies
eat owners will give it the advantages of esperi
ence, skill and enterpriie. So says the Wheeling
Times.

I have been instructed- by theinanagers of ;the
Western Pennsylvania Hospital to announce to the
Contalltons that ilion Harmer Denny of this cit
and David: Shields :Esq., Sewickly in this
County; hive been made managers of the Asso
ciation for life, with the 'privilege to each of send.

of a gift of eleven and a half acres of land as a
site for the Hospital on the part of Mr. Denny ;
and-a donation of One Thousand Dollars paid int.
the Treasurer on the part.of Mr. Shields.
At a special election held on the 14th inst. Chas.
F. Spang was elected a manager in the place
of Neville B. Craig, Esq., resigned.
The following correspondence between the Pres
ident of the board, Mr. Bakewell, and Mr. Denny,
was ordered to be published.
Joas HAarsa, Secretary
HONORABLY. HARII•R DENNY:--
Dear Sir—l have the pleasure to transmit co
pies'of the proceedings of a late meeting of the
Managers of the Western Pennsylvania Hospital
The first of these resolutions designed to convey
to yourself, and Mrs. Denny, the grateful ac
knowledgements of the board for your munili
cent donation of a suitable site for the proposed
Institution.
The attainment of this object, sir, has long been
desired by many of our most philanthropic fellow
citizens, some of whom, have not lived to witness
the accomplishment of their exertions, in its be
half, and is so far elevated in importance above
the ephemeral excitement of the passing hour, that
it seems to invest.every effort to promote its wel
fare, with a consecration of no ordinary character,
and I doubt not that the remembrance of having
so materially' contributed to its completion, will
afford, to yourself, and your respected consort,
more heartfelt satisfaction than the possession of
boundless wealth or the enjoyment of political die
tinction.
The second resolution will acquaint you v:ith
your election to the Board, as a life member, in
pursuance of the provisions of the constitution of
the Society.
Permit me to assu:e you of the gratification. the I
members of the Board will experience from your
association with them in the pleasing, yet arduous
task of rendering your bounty most av ailable for
its contemplated object, and to express my confi
dent hope that the noble example you have given
in providing a site will speedily be followed' by
contributions from other liberal minded citizens,
sufficient to construct the requisite buildings, and
furnish an ample endowment for the support of
the Hospital, which I trust will long prove a bend
fit to the community, not only by retLrding relict
to bodily disorders and infirmities, but also under
the blessings of Providence by ministering to the
ulind diseased, and restoring to perfect saundness
many of those unfortunate persons who by the de
privation of their mental powers are a burthen a
like to themselves and to soeie!..
Should our anticipations be realized by this in
stitution-so much required by the increasing pnpu
lation of our city, and vicinity, and ea thoroughly
in accordance with the dictates of the religion' that
bids us love our neighbors as ourselves, will prove
a memento of the generosity of its founders More
lasting than Cotiothian brass, and more pure ;than
Patten marble.
1 beg leave to present to Mrs Denny and your
self my individual acknowledgements on the (Kea
stun and - have the honor to be yours respect ly.

THOM As BitrAw ELL, Esq , —President of the
trate, rt Pa. liorpt.tal.
Dear Sir.—l had the honor to receive your fa.
cot enclosing an extract from the minutes of the'
Board of managers of the Western Pennsylvania
Hospital. For the kind m n , er in which the
Board has been pleased to uo•ice our donation of
a site for the hospital, have the goodness to r•um
municate on behalf of Mrs. Denny and myself
our most respectful ac knots - frit-mews. It is our
sincete prayer that the Institution to which we
have been permitted, under Providence, Dots to
contribute, may long be sustained, and prove a
blessing to the afflicted of our race who may be
come its inmates.
If I should at any time avail myself of the es
teemed' privilege with which I have been honored
by the courtesy of the terms of the constitution of
the society and the resolution of the Board, it will
be for no other purpose than to co-operate with
those who have die honor of being designa•ed by
the benevolent contributors, as proper persons to
be entrusted with the duty of currying forward the
whole enterprise.
With sentiments of sincere respect for yourself
and the members of the board individually.
I remain your old, servant.

Frightful Appetite.—While the St. Louis Le
gion was on its passage from New Orleans to the
Brazos, an officer of the Native American Ran
gers very much astonished the steward of the ves
sel by his appetite; so much so, that the latter
looked upon him with a feeling of dread. Direct.
ly beneath the cabin table, at which the officers
dined, was an opening in the deck for ventilating
the steerage of the vessel,.in which were quarter
ed a portion of the privates of the legion.--Several
of these hoisted a companion up to the said open.
ing, while the officers were at table, and he, catch
ing the Lieutenant of the Rangers by the legs,
asked him very politely to pass down a share of
any thing good there might be upon the table.
"Certainly, boys," said the sub., and reaching
for a plate of fresh buscuit,down it went. "Stew
ard," said be, "hand me them eggs," and down '
went the eggs. "Pass me some fresh biscuit,"
was his next request, and the steward, in aston
ishment, looked round fot the heaped-up-plate he
had furnished a few moments before—it had dis
appeared ! Another was placed upon the table,
and the steward had hardly turned his back before
it was cleared, and the contents passing round be.
low. "A few more eggs," said the Lieutenant;
the steward gazed at the cleared plates, and burst
into a flood of perspiration. More eggs -were
i passed along, and where they disappeared, or how
so small a man as the sub. could swallow so rap
idly, appeared. to be a subject of dreadful mystery
to the table purveyor. At length the meal was
over, and the alarmed steward took the firatoppor
tunity of mentioning the cause of his agitation to.
the captain.
"It wouldn't berm," said he, "that would go to
Mexico under that little fellow ; for if he ant the
devil, he is such a gormandizer that he will be
sure to create a famin on the route. Lord, sir
how he doeseat eggs and hot biscuit!"

The democracy of old Franklin had , a meeting
in Chamberabargh, on the c rlOth instant. .7 he
meeting was organized unanimous appoint
ment of General Samuel Dunn, as president, and
William Shenefield,'-Henry Miller, John Skinner,
Georgs-W. Halter, Jacob Kegrice, MattheW Pat
ton, Peitz. Snider, and John McClellan, as Vice
Presidents. A. H. Smith, Andrew Fry jr., and
William Bossart, were appointed Secretaries of the
meeting.
The meeting was ably and eloquently addressed
by James X. M . Lanahan Esq., George W. Brewer
Esq., and Wilson Relly Esq., on the various sub.
ects embraced in the resolutions. Among the
resolutions passed con the occasion, we select the
following:
Resolved, That the events of the Mexican War
—a War, forced upon the administration by the in
solence and aggressions of a long series of years,
artfully fomented by European intrigue, and end
ing in the actual murder of our own citizens upon
our own soil—abundantly show, that the national
honor and safety must look to the Democratic par
ty alone for their maintainance and security, when
threatened either by the avowed enemies of Re
publican Governments, or the weak, degraded and
pliant allies, which they sometimes find in nomi
nal republics, like that of Mexico.
Resolved, That the triumphs of war have been
blended with the triumphs of peace, under the
present national administration, and that we look
with equal pride and satisfaction upon the equita
ble adjustment of the Tariff—the enlargement of
our commercial relations, and the prospect of gol
den advantages to the repressed and postponed in
terests of the agricultural classes.
Resolved, That the Whig cry of "Ruin" to en
sue from the passage of the Tariff of 1846 was a
studied and systematic attempt to mislead the peo
ple on a question of immense moment, which has
been answered and falsified by the unprecedented
advancement and prosperity of all our interest,
and more enecially of those of the protected
classes.
Resolved, That we have undiminished confidence
in the time honored usages of the Democratic plr
ty, which have rescued us more than once from
the imminent peril of defeat by their harmonious
reconciliation of conflicting interests and claims;
and that we will patiently await the issue of the
deliberations of a National Convention, in the ex
pectation of receiving a candidate for the Presiden•
cy, who will not only excite our enthusiasm, but
whose principles will fully coincide with those we
have adopted and avowed.
Resolved, That the interests of Pennsylvania—
the honest and efficient administration of her gov
ernment and the successful management of all her
complicated relations, require the re-election of
Francis R Shook i—that the irreproachable char
acter of his adpinistration thus far, is the best
guaranty we could ask of his perseverance in that
course of rectitude and earnest patriotic endeavor
to serve Lis native State—sot that v:a will exert
ourselves in every honorable manna' to secure an
event, so indispensable to our future prosperity and
prng ress.
Rewired, That in Morris Longstreth, the intent-
gent, upright and industrious farmer of Montgom•
cry County, we have a candidate of whom we,
may conscientiously and fearlessly boast—that our
efforts to unite him ivith Francis R. Shunlc in the
management of our public affairs shall, be untiring
and zealous, convinced as we are, that no citizen
of the State can discharge the onerous duties of
Canal Commissioner with more credit to himielt
and the party, than Morris Longstteth.
The following bold and significant wagers we
find in a late number of that spirited Democratic
paper, the tioilidayslitag SiaPflard. We have been
desired to print them for the eliikeation of our
Fegeral opponents

MOVOROAUELA SLAM WATER NATIGIVTION.-
We find the lollowing article in the last Wheeling
Times, but without credit. We presume it must
hare been extracted from a Morgantown, (Va )
paper:
Slack-Water.—Mr. Morehead, the President of
the Monongahela Slack-Water improvement, ac
companied by another gentleman of Pittsburgh,
visited our WWII last week on a journey connected
with the proposed extension of their Improvement
up the river. They had a conference with some
of our citizens. and, we understand, gave assurance
of hearty co operation when the work shall be
commenced in Virginia. They urge us to make
some actiye efforts to carry into effect the law of
last winter incorporating the Virginia company,
and promise substantial operations on their part
when they shall have secured an amendment to
their charter for which they made application to
their Legislature last winter. The application
then failed from want of time for one of the branch•
es to operate upon an amendment in the bill which
had been appended to it in the other. so that nott.-
ing will prevent its success at another session.
Goon- atsn Evat..—ln the revelations of Davie,
the Poughkeepsie Clairvoyant, is the followit:g
startling paragraph. The idea is new, and appeats
to conflict with all our preconceived views .of
progress. Should' such an idea be satisfactorily
demonstrated in the body of the book, it will up
set a world of theory which has obtained since
man began to thick
"It is n3w manifest to every enlarged under
standing, that the lowest typifies the highest ; and
the very moment you conceive of such a represen
tation, all idea of opposition is annihilated. And
as the first must exist before the ultimate, so all
things must harmonize perfectly, and conform to
the established law of universal and eternal pro.
gression. Therefore opposites do not exist; but
that which is gross and imperfect, and apprenlly
opposed to higher development, merely has not
progressed to the standard of perfection that we
have erected.
Bloody Baule.—The Ir:s, a paper published ill
Minden, La., says that a bloody fight took place at
the Dorchete Bridge, near the line of the parish,
on the 22d ult. There seems to have been two
parties, numbering some twelve or fifteen men.
who mutually agreed to meet at this bridge and
settle some old difficulties by fighting with rifles.
Two men were killed on the spot. There names
were %Hardy Miller and a Mr. Simpson. Mr. Wet.
ly received a wound in the abdomen, supposed to
be mortal. Mr. Price was dangerously wounded.
Mr. Robert Sawyers had two fingers shot off, and
some others were wounded.
Writ Isued:—A writ was isued on Friday, in-
New York, at the suit of Edward Fox, against
Martin Hare, for eloping with his daughter Mary.
The damages are laid at $30.000. but Hare obtain
ed ail in the sum of $5,00.

WESTERIC - PpriPartVANI.IL .Hoserrsz:—From
the correepondence which we publish .L this day, it
will be seen that the W. P. Hospital , , AssOciation
have the grOund, and we are assured h ave also ample
means to . erect the necessary Hospitel attildings
on the same. We would rejoice if, instead of a
Hospital for sickness and wounds, this Association
would establish an Asylum for that direst calamity
of Providence, INSANITY. We-have now in sue
cessful operation a Hospital -for the sick and af
flicted, under the superintendence of the Sisters of
Mercy. It is dr ing a great deal of gooe; and with
the encouragement which a liberal and intelligent
community could extend to it, that Institution
might for many years afford all the necessary re
lief to the sick and afflicted poor that our benevo
lent citizens would see proper to bestow on them.
But for the violent and furious maniac there is no
home ;Ino place where cheerfulness and a kind
word, spoken at the right time, might disperse the
gloom that shadows the depressed spirit, and urges
it on to suicide ; no abode where some intelligent
mind would be present' to bring the erring intellect
back to - reason; and dispel the hallucinations which
are hurrying it on to madness or idiocy. Such an
Institution is much needed, and we hope the excel
lent gentlemen who compose the Boatd of Mena
gers of the W. P. Hospital will turn their ;wen- ,
tion to this subject, and in affording the means of
" ministering to the min I diseased " they will, in
our poor opinion, do more good, be more entitled
to the thanks of the community—and better than
that, have the approval of their own judgments—
than if they should expend the charitable fund
under their control in erecting ,a Hospital out of
the city, which would be inconvenient of access,
and have to be carried on at a vast expense, at least
for many years to come.
Darsitexxxss is not on the decrease in this
city, as any one may discoter who notices the evi
dences that are hourly offered in oir public places.
Tho' the efforts of the Temperance Sociefei are
unabated—though the Sons are gaining ill num
bers and enthusiasm, still the forces in opposition
are becoming stronger and stronger. This only
proves that the means that have been adopted are
inefficient; that something else is necessary in
order to' reform permanently those who 'are accus
tomed to indulge, or to prevent young ones from
beginning the business that must eventually de-
Croy them. We do not believe that any organi•
zation can succeed in removing the curse of drunk
enness—nor can legislative action—though their
appliances have done much good and may do more.
The truth is, men must have excitement. Deprive
them of the bowl, and you must give them a sub
stitute. He who can invent or discover a source
, of excitement that will take the place of that af
t forded by strong drinks, will accomplish more than
all the Temperance organizations have ever yet
I done ; he will rid the land of drunkenness. But
fiat such a discovery will be made soon, we have
I not much hope.
Its • &ears —A gentleman, not unknown in
wine circles in this.city, stepped into Hunker's - Ice
Cream Saloon, a few days ago, in company with
some ladies, and called for the necessary number
of saucers of the genuine vanilla. He was forth
with furnished in a suitable style. The delicious
morsels were soon gone , and the party were about
le iving, when the person in attendance reminded
the gentleman that the bill had not been paid.—
Tne entire comp my looked wild, but the gallant,
true to his instinct, contended that he had w hetted
out; the cream man. or boy. replied very positively
that such was not the fact. Angry words follow
ed. and the end proved that the man with the la
dies was without dimes, wheteupon the company
,with him insinuated a willingness to ratite a col
' levion, and thus adjust the difficulty. This was
:done; and the girls went home without their pro
tector, Vie believe that the person nlluded to has
not been seen since.
Insulting liiintssra iu Cm-r.--Among the mat
ters presented by the Philadelphia grand jury ofi
the July term, is that of the unrestrained abuse of!
witnesses by members of the bar. in Court. The
grand jury considers this license is calculated to 1
abridge the dignity of the Court, and to interfere
with the proper course of justice. It will be re-1
membered that a young man named Smith lately
made an assault, in Philadelphia, upon a lawyer I
named anion, for this very thing. We observe i
that Smith's case (for assault) has been removed
to the Supreme Court.
03. The matter referred to in the above extract
is of sufficient importance to command the atten
tion of the Grand Jury in this county. We have
noticed that some lawyers have an idea that they
cannot do justice to their clients without insulting
all the witnesses who may appear against them.
Ladies are frequently most shamefully annoyed by
impudent questions put to them by lawyers l•who o se
object is to wound their feelings and make them-
selves appear cute. If there is ally pervention, it
should be applied.
ar• We understand that a small lot of thieves
arrived in town from the lower country a few days
ago. We advise them to be careful how they ore
rate in this neighborhood—they are known, and
the eyes of those who are able and willing to pick
them up, are upon them. A th . e; has but little
chance in this city. It is but seldom one escapes
after committing a depredation. The prisons are
well filled, but there are a few more cella left for
the accommodation of the southern gentry, should
it appear necessary or expedient to support them
at public expense for a few months or years.
AUTIEST AND COM3IITMLNT.-A man named
Thompson was brought up from Beaver yesterday,
by the Beaver officers, on a warrant from Mayor
Adams, on the charge of stealing a flat boat from
the Allegheny Wharf. The owners live in Clarion
county. The bait is worth nbout $73; the thief
a3ld it some miles below Beaver, for about slo.
It has been recovered. Thompson is now in jail
GRAND Coseitur.—At the Eagle Saloon this
evening, the following vocalists will appear: Mrs.
PIIILLTPR, Mr. HOLMAN, (from the Seguin Troupe)
Miss BRUCE, Mrs. Su•nP, and Mr. 'CREAMS. Is
not this attractive enough ? Let all the world and
his wife attend to night.
crYThe Philadelphians have a pet alligator,
which attracts the curious. It is said to be very
sociable. Our friend Armstrong, at Andrews' Sa
loon, put a whale down stairs, a few nights ago,
because he was not a pet; and judging from the
conduct of the animal, we should say he could.not
be tamed easily.
We have no larcenies for several days, that
have been made public. The boys seem to be all
on the hill.
my A man who will go into a Concert Hall,
and take a seat with hat on, is mean enough for

GREAT ITALIAN REMEDY
PHILADELPHIA, April 26, 1846
Being afflicted for some 8 years with that most
listressing disease. the asthma, and for the last
3 years much of the time confined to my room.
tnd at several different times my life was des
; mired of; I concluded to' obtain some of Ma
tool's Sicilian Syrup, which was recommended to
me by a friend from New York. who stated that
it had cured some of the most inveterate cases
tnown to the medical profession. Suffice it to say,
:hat, after using the above medicine for about 4
veeks, I was entirely relieved, and I believe radi
ally cured. Yours with respect,

ccrWirocierno Coron.—Messrs Editors--I ob
served some time ago a communication over the
rignature for "A Parent," stating that Dr. Jayne's
Indian ExpiCtorant had been the means of saving
the lives of three of his ehildren, who were suffer
ing severely with whooping cough; and baying, but
a short time before, lost one of my children by
that dreadful complaint, and having another, and
my only child, suffering the greatest agony with
the same disease, and in hourly expectation of its
death, I was induced to purchase a bottle of it, and
commenced using it according to the directions—'
and to the surprise 'of all it began to mend in fif
teen minutes after we commenced using it, and the
child has now completely recovered.
I have no acquaintance with Dr. Jayne, but I
hereby return him a husband's and a father's
grateful acknowledgmenta.
