Starving Europe—The Tariff
The federalists,fintling that all their extravagant!
stories relative to the ruin that would certainly fol
low,ibe • enactment of the Tariff of 1546, havel
ttirned out false, are now endeavoring to convey)
the, idea that the universal prosperity which exists
throughout the countr k y, is in consequence of the
famitte in Great Britain. The immense receipts
at the different Custom Houses, the increased a.
mount of - tolls received by the , iariotis Collectors I
on the public' . works in th's and other states, &c.,,
&C., are,el -attributable to Starving Europe."
NovOet ueeee how this yrgtiment of the cun
'ningfelerelists'works. The leaders of that party
predicted that the iron interest_ of this country
would be "ftidri.l" by the passage of the Tariff of
LUG::: But instead of this being the case, we find
that the' iron interest was never so prosperous as
it .is, at present. New rolling mills are being
erected 'in:different parts of the country, and capi.
taliSts are leaving other pursuits to engage in the
Manufacture of .iron. Prices aro high and the de
ri*d is . Very great. Wonder if the famine in
"starving Europe " keeps up the price and demand
for iron? Will-.the feds answer that
'.. 3 7ai0, the Federal politicians propliebied that
the Tariff ol 18.1t3 would"ruin•' the wool growing
interest of the :country."' The country was to be
Oitiriun with the cheap fabrics of Europe, and
eu Manufactories would be compelled to cease
operations, in consequence of the " pauper compe
tition." Well, what are the facts Why, we find
evety'manufeeturing establishnient in the country
in a ptosperous condition, and the agents of Mas
sachusetts manufacturers:paying the Washington
county farmers from 40 t0G . 2,3 cents per lb. far
this year's clip of wool! But according to federal
reasoning thiprosperi•y of the manufacturer, and
the high price of wool, are attributable to the
famine in " starving Europe l"
And igain 7 We were told last summer that the
glass manufacturers would he broken up after the
new Tariff would go into operation. At that time
thc.priceof.window glass was from $1,500fit1,75
per box. We nor find, however, that the same
description of window glass is selling readily at
$3,23 per box, and it is difficult for the matinfac
turers to supply the derriand. But if the honest
fi!dital politicians ere to be believed, the famine in
`starving Europe has caused the advance in
glass, and the prosperity which is at present ob
seivable in this branch of domestic industry
S 3 much for Peden!! reasoning.
General Taylor's Political Views
General Tairtou has tivrttten more letters for
publication, Within the last six months, than any
man living, but as yet he has entirely failed in giv
ing.his pcilitical 'views on the great questions which
now agitate the public mind.—questions, which,
since the organization of our go‘crnment, have
constantly divided the two political parties of the
country.
We have now before us another letter from Gen.
T.►rcon, dated July 30, 18.17. and .vritten
ply to sundry citizens of Clarksville, Tenn., who
wercappointed by a Convention held at that pliice
on the 7th of June last, to address the General, to
ascertain his views on the various suhjects em
braied in the. resolutions passed by the Conven
tion.
The first and second resolutions of the. Com en
tioa express hostility to a National Bank, as an in
stitution both unconstitutional and inexpedient;
the third is in favor of the Constitutional Trea-
Bury; the fourth is agkist a Tariff for protection ;
the fifth against the distribution of the proceeds of
sales of the public lands; the sixth against the
policy of internal improvement by the General
Government; and the seventh expresses the belief',
in the right of Texas, as an independent sovereign•'
ty, to annex itself to the United States, and the ob
ligation imposed upon us after the act- of annex:l-1
lion to protect her territory.
To these resolutions General TAYLOR replies in;
Eubstancc, that he is "no politician," and as neatly:
forty years of his life have been spent in the mili
tary service, he has found no time to investigate
Tioliti?al matters. He then goes on to say that he
bas nti political aspirations whatever; but adds:—
" shoilld a Majority of the good people of our
country think proper to elevate me fo the first office
in their gift, or I rosy say the first in the world, I
will feel bound to serve them, and will do so hon
estly and faithfully to the best of my abilities,
strictly in conformity to the provisions of the Con':
stitution, as near as possible in the way it was
acted on and construed by nut first Presidents, two
of whom at least participated in cleating cud put
ting in operation that glorious instrument." He
concludes: "should I ever occupy the White house
it must be by the spontaneous move of the people,
and by no act of mine, so that I could enter upon
the duties appertaining to the Chief Magistrate of
the country untrammelled and unpicked beyond
what I have previously stated as regards the Col -
stitution, so that I could and would be the Presi
dent of the nation and not of a party."
It is now evident that General TAT Lon has
formed no - political opinions; at least none that he
is willing to expose to the " public eye." It would
hare been the easiest thing in the world for him
to answer the resolutions of the Clarkeville ('on.
vention, with a single monosyllable, ' yes,' or no
but he does not see proper to commits himself one
way or the other. We must therefore conclude
thatthe anxious politicians of the federal party.
who assert that General TA r ton is "an out and
out whig and nothing but a whig," are not disposed
to believe the General's own words, expressly to
the contrary. '

Railroad - Convention at Canton.
The Stark County ‘,(o.):Dernocrat, of the Ist
inst., contains the proceedings of the Railroad Con
vention at_Canton, on the . 26th of 'August. Ex-
Gov. Monnacsx B.sart.xx, Of Richland county,
avis elected President ; and the Hon. John Sloan.
of Wayne coutity, and Charles K. Skinner, Esq
Of : Stark county, were elected Irke Presidents ;
and Arnold Lynch and Madison Reynolds were
elected Secretaries. ,
Delegates -were in attendance from Mansfield,
Richlandcounty ; Wayne county; Massillon; Can.
ton; Minerva;" Washington tp.; New Franklin; Sa
lem, Salemville, East-Liverpool, Acre Town, New
Lisbon, Hanover, Wellsville, in Columbiana coun
ty; and Glasgow, Beaver county.
On motion of Dwight Jaivis, Esq., a committee
of seven was appointed to prepare and report bu
siness for the Convention.
John Harris, Esq., Chairman of the Committee,
presented the following le solutions, Which, after
being discussed at length by Hon. John Sloan, J.
Harris, Fel, W. E. Russell, Esq., D. J all is, Esq ,
J. J. Brooks, Esq Geo. Fries, Dr W. Farm
er, H. J. Amble- v .Fsq , Thos. Umbstetter, Esq., S.
Lahm and others, «•ete unanimously adopted:
I. Resolved, That this Con% ention luehly ap.
prove of the scheme of a Great Western railroad
from Pittsburgh, Pa , through the counties of Co
lumbiana, Stark, Wayne, Ashland and Richland,
and thence westward to the west line of the State
of Ohio—to be continued (with the assent of In
diana and Illinois) to the Ilisstssippi [-ker.
'2. Rep,lra'. That the Convention has abundant
evidence that a route from Pittsburgh westward,
as indicated in the foregoing resolution. is not only
practicable," hut highly favorable.
3. Rcsdrul, That this contemplated Railroad'
would run through -the centre of the most product-'
ive wheat grossing region of the United States, if
not of the world. This Convention therefore feel'
confident that the stock of said road could riot fail
'to be highly profitable.
4. Resolced, That a committee of Ira be ap
pointed, whose duty it shall be to use all proper
means to procure an art of incorporation, to be
passed at the next session Pi the General Assert.-
' bly of Ohio, incorporating a Company'svith pow
crs to crmstiuct a Railroad from the east to the
west line of the State of Mitt. through the coom
! ties of Columbiana, Stark, Wayne, Ashland and
I Richland—anal that said committee he requested
l to confer with the friends of the Central Railroad
Ithrough Pennsylvania, and request their co ()peta
-1 lion in procuring a Charter from Pittsburgh west
to a suitable point to connect with this work.
5. Raokrd, That a committee of five members
be appointed, whose duty it shall be to collect such
i facts as may tend to show the importance of the
contemplated Railroad, and tend to promote its
• completion ; and that they report to the Secretaries
of this Covention—who,e ihity it shall he to pub
lish the same in the various papers along said
route.
G. Resofred, That each member of this Conven
tion: in view of the importance of the content.
plated work, to the interests of this State—and
particularly to the agricultural portions of the
country through which it would pass—hereby
pledges himself to Me all proper means to perfect
the enterprise.
Alter appointing committees in pursuance of the
foregoing resolutions, the Convention adjourned
sou. du.
It will thus he seen that the people of Ohio are
alive to the importance of a Railroad from this
city west, to Mansfield. But what are the citizens
of Pittsburgh dying in relation to this grand pro
ject! Nothing—absolutely nothing! That the
Western Railroad will benefit our people more
than the Ohioans, eiery one readily admits; but
yet, strange as it may appear. the subject does not
create that - sensation time that its importance war
. rants.
Annexation of Texas
The following paragraphs close a long letter
from Hon. Samuel Houston to the Editor of the
Texas Banner, in which he denies a position as
sumed by Ex-President Tyler, in a recent letter,
that foreign stations were intriguing with Texas
prior to its. annexation to the United States.
In November, 16.1 - 2, the United States, England
and' France had all been invoked by Texas and re
quested to act jointly, or severally, in producing
peace between Texas and Mexico. Texas found
these powers all equally well disposed to leave her
to her fati, rather than risk anything in her be
half. On the part of Texas, this looped like lair
dealing, though sha were not dealt fairly tivith by
others. This certainly left no web of intrigue to
scatlcr to tiy• winds.
he object of all men should be to reprehend
in others, what is wrong in itsell ; or, in truth, to
impute whatever deserves' rebuke; but, to charge
either nations or individuals with faults or crime,
which do not exist, 'because it is palatable to a
morbid taste winch may prevail for a time, is - nut
suited to the intelligence of the age!
It affords me pleasure (so fir as I was connected
with The transactions of that day) to assert that I
was delirrhted when Mr. Tyler took the Oficial
“iniative ” in the measure of annevation.
thought his bold and manly rouse in assuming a
just and proper responsibility: was such as should
characterise the head of a peat notion.
Accusations have been so frequently made
against the authorities of Texas indirectly, and a•
gainst the representatives of foreign governments
directly. that I have telt myself imperatively called
upon to avow to all mho feel an interest in learn.
, ing or embracirg the truth in regard to tl.is matter,
'that there never was any intrigue connected with
Texas and other pomers. nor was there ever arty
foundation for such a 'charge (though often reiter
ated) only in the feverish excitement of heated
fancy. or the mischievous designs of the m icked.
I feel constrained to soy thus much in vi nil ice
lion of myself and friends who were actors with
me, and whosustained rue through the period al.l
lulled to, as well as the representatit es of other
governments who tenlered us kindneo es , without
ever proposing aught which could embarrass or de
grade Texas in the day of her veriest tribulation
So much has been said in relation to annexation—,
the policy of the measure—the causes which pro
duced it—those who brought' it about—and those
who effected the great result—that I shall indulge
in but one reflection, as I hope it may not be tie.
cessary 16r me ever to say more on the subject._
Taking into view the genius of the Texians and
the people of the United States—their identity of
character, and the proximity of the two nations, it
was most natural that they should become united.
For years, neither political patty of the United
States was willing to rely upon the measure for po
litical capital. Texas had been urgent in her im•
poltu s nities for annexation, but they were disre
garded! General Jackson's letters brought the sub
ject before the A merican people. They took it
up as a people's ineasuie not presented to them by
politicians. for, it was of to., great magnitude to be
wielded by any thing less than the masses of the
two nations. In their action, the people gave a
happy illustration of the genius of our institutions,
l and of the ornMpotence of their voice. in impor
tant matters touching the public weal ! General
Jdckson's influence, arising front his vt isdom and
fervid patriotism, led the way, and gave more di
rection to the measuie, and to American feeling,
than all other men. Othccs followed where he led.
'The subject was of such grand import to the Unit•
ell States, that, like Aaron s rod, it swallowed the
rod of hll political sorceries; and while it advanced

ifesfed duririg - the meeting, and many tiarionairot
ed who were not stockholders. The disposition to
abandon the idea of a connection with Baltimore
is general among the stockholders, 'but the mob
vote carried the day.'Q.
0 :7 The above is a Telegraph Despatch ;froth
this city to the Baltimore Sun. We do not know
who sent it, but the author did not. tell the truth in
all respects, to say the least. We did not under-
stand that the disposition to abandon the charter,
was general. In fact not more than one half doz
en among the hundreds present, declared a desire ,
for the abandonment. We dare sayihowever, that
many present had a secret wish that the 'resolu-',
lions of Mr. Hanna should be adopted. We do
not believe that any persons voted who were not
stockholders—though some gentlemen from Pay
ette, who had subscribed and paid in their money,
had no certificates. In strict justice they were as
much entitled to vote as the President of the com
parry. It is not in very good taste to cull the
majority of the meeting " the mob." We saw no
disorderly persons in the room—uone who are not
regarded as respectable.
Upon the whole we can safely assert that there
was a disposition manifested by a majority of the
!stockholders to hold un to the charter, and permit
those who chose to withdraw their subscriptions.
to do so.
We feel no interest in the matter, personally,

men of that city. She has been to New YOrk,
Buffalo. and Niagara Falls, and all intermediatel
places. At the Fulls she was the observed of all i
obseners. During her stay in Pittsburgh she has'
caused but little excitement, owing to circum
stances. She was first seen at one of Dr. Cotton's
exhibitions in the Athenaeum. The gas exieri•
merits were exceedingly amusing to her. She
remarked to Dr. Delany, as ho handed her a chair.
(inasmuch as the benches were all filled.) that

make tolks shine." lids she conceived to be a
very happy play upon words, having reference toff
the brilliance of our street gas. It was at her!
suggestion that the Doctor played a naughty trick
upon one of his subjects. Mrs. Partington—oho
understands human nature. she being is clairvoyant
--intin,tated that one person present intended to
impose upon the Doctor arid the audience—that is
Ithat he would perinit the gas to escape from his
1
nose, and thus perform his pleasing feats. The
Doctor filled the bag %%Oh common air, arid ap.
plied it to the lips' of the gentleman designated by
the lady. He unsuspectingly took it i and soon
I began to exhibit the effects—he began to developn
himself. While in the middle 01 . a thrilling speech,
IDr. C. approached and 1., hispered in his ear • " I

Nodules you have heard - very alarming ac
counts of The fever. It is very bad, certainly,
among the lower orders of Irish and Germans,
who arrived here by hundreds this last year; and.
not having the means of leaving,, were obliged to
remain. Poor creatures! they—many of them—
have left home, and all that was dear to them, to
find a gave amongst strangers. With the higher
classes of society, the fever is very light, and yields
quickly to good attendance. Our cif , / is dull, for
if the fear of fever does not drive persons away,
the heat and mosquitos do; the latter are very,
coy annoying:••
