OUR MOTTO.
113/X*llll.. •
Reeient Star, brightly. us,
With thy dear endureg light,
Glad the way, the pith before us,
From a cold world's darkening
Heartless all, without] thy, gleaming—
Mortal love and empty name—
False the hope, theivishful dreaming,
For the prize of earthly fame.
•
Gentle A rigel,A6in together
All onr band in union sweet;, r ,
That with trust, like brothers ever,
We may round Our altars meet,
Without thy flame, of holy birth,
How could e'er our hearts be lighted?—
Groping for the dross of earth,
They will perish; Lill benighted.
TBII7 n.
.
Sacred Spirit, shield our meetings,
With thy ever watchful care;
That no false, deceitful greetings,
E'er disturb the union there :
Alae, for him who leave has taken,
From thy children heaven born,
By the good he has forsaken,
And becomes a mark for scorn.
TBIENDIIIIIP, LOVY ♦XD TIMM.
Deeply grafted be our motto
In each good Onn Flm.ow's heart,
Making earth a fairy grotto,
From which we would ne'er depart :
Futsamsnre, cheering, guide each brother,
Lovz, unite in firmest bond,
BOLT TIMM!, bless each and other,
With the guidance of thy w.md.
THE LITTLE MOLES,--11: nasalize suer...a
When grasping tyranny offends,
Or angry bigots frown :
When rulers plot for selfish ends
To keep the people down
When statesmen form unholy league
To driiie the world to war;
When knaves in palates intrigue
For ribbons or a star:
We raise our heads, survey their deeds,
And cheerily reply—
Greb,.litile moles, grub under ground ;
\i 'r here's sunshine.in the sky.
When canting hypocrites combine
To curb a free man's thought,
And hold all doctrine undivine
. That holds their canting naught !
When round their narrow pale they plod,
And scornfully assume
That all without are cursed of God,
And justify the doom,
We think of Heaven's eternal love,
And strong in hope reply—
Grub, little moles, grub under ground
There's sunshine in the sky.
When men complain of human kind,
In misanthropic mood,
And thinking evil things, grow blind
To presence of the good;
When, walled in prejudices strong,
They urge that evermore
The world is fated to go ss rong;
For going wrong before;
_We feel the truths they cannot feel;
And smile as we reply—
Grub, little moles,grub under ground;
There's sunshine in the sky.
A LATE MORMON MIRACLE
The Ottoway Free Trader gives the follow ing ,,
~with an endorsement of its truth:
i"lt appears the prophet Strang needed a new
house, and he determined his followers should build
it for him. So he called them together, and told!
them that in consideration that they would erect
the house, the Lord had authorized him to promise
them an extraordinary endowment. The building'
was soon completed, and now they apply for their,
reward. All the Saints are gathered together in
the Church; the prophet takes them. through a va-;
riety of ceremonies. such as head , washing. feet
washing. &c., and concludes by anointing the heads
of all with a composition that had a queer smell "!
They are then directed to adjiurn to another room
that was totally fiat k, where they Were to receive
the endowment, which was to be in the shape of
an extraordinary and visible manifestation of the!
Spirit, rendering them at once impregnable to all'
the shafts of Satan. Arrived in the dark room.'
sure enough the beads of all shone as if lit up by
the brightness of the 'son, and great was the re
joicing of the saints thereat. But the prophet
William, who was preseat, although staggered a'
little, mistrusted that all was not guild that glut
tered," so he took some of the ointment and sub
mitted it to an examination, and In the discovery
He found that it was a mixture of nil and phospho•
/us and that hence the whole illumination opera
tion was a gross cheat. Ile took the first opportu
nity to accuse prophet Strang publicly, and before
the whole congregation of the imposition; who,
so far from denying it, coolly acknowledged the
corn, and then preached a sermon, justifying the
ac:; and maintaining that all the miracles of Christ,
Moses, &c . were wrought in the same way—that
is, by natural means. Of course, William could
no longer hold fellowship with such a man.

1.. HARPER, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR
PITTq,BURGIIt
WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 13, 1847
We present to our leaders this morning the re
sult of the election in this county yesterday, so
far as ascertained last , night, when our paper was
put to press. 01 this' result the Democracy have
every reason to be proud. The vote polled, con.
sidering the inclemency of the weather, is tolera
bly large. Our federal opponents used more than
their usual vigilance—they left not a stone
,
on
turned ; and labored with a zeal worthy of a better
cause, to defeat one of the best Governors Penn
sylvania ever had. The result shows that the
principles of the Democratic party are gaining
strength even in this hot-bed of Federalism.
In 1840, Allegheny county gave Gen. Harrison
a majority of 3000 votes over Mr. Van Buren. In
1844 for Governor, Markle's majority over Shunt:,
was 2,221 votes. in 1848, Powers' majority over
Foster, for Canal Commissioner, was 1,744; and
Hampton's majority over M'Candless was 1,414.
When we take into consideration the fact that
our federal opponents claimed, before the election,
a majority of 3,000 votes for Gen Irvin, we can,
with great reason, claim the result as a Demonratic
triumph in Allegheny county I
Let our Democratic friends keep up their organ
ization—they have every thing to cheer them on
for the future. In another year, or two years at
the farthest, Allegheny county will enroll herself
under the glorious flag of Democracy 1 Truth and
Principle must and will triumph in the end I
Progress of Democracy.
It is cheering to the mind of every friend of ra
tiunal liberty to find sentiments like these emanati
ing from the press, in a country where there is the
name of liberty, without its spirit; and where a
nominal suffrage is controlled by wealth and pow
er. The extract is from the London Standard:—
"To speak plainly—universal suffrage has now
very little (error for us. Our experience of the burn
by.classes, which ie tolerably extensive, satisfies
us that the class below, the ten pound franchise,
( ere a class much more to be trusted than the mass
lof those who occupy ten pound houses? . You will
almost always find the working man a much more
intelligent and better disposed man than the small i
employer—the lodger than the lodging hiuse keep
er—the customer at the chandler's shop, than the
keeper of that shop. Thanks to the exertions of
our ever to be honored clergy, and after that un
rivalled body of teachers and benefactors, thanks
to Lord Brougham, Mr. Charles Knight, and the
Useful Knowledge folk,' a wondelful change has
been wrought in the habits of our workingmen, even
l in cities and towns—a change, which, it it proceed
as it has proceeded hitherto, will,we predict, cause
the most jealous guardians of the rights of rank
I and property, and the interests of order, to have
new viesss of u niversal suffrage."
The following article, which we copy from the
American Farmer, giving a description of the sev•
eral varieties of Cotton, may be interesting to'
many of our readers:—
" Georgia Sea Island cotton is of a dull butter
tint, the filament being some three times longer'
than that of the Indian cotton wool. The fibres ,
are cylindrico spiral, and hence the ease with wilt( h
they are spun into cotton thread.
Georgia Upland cotton is good for coarse yarns
The staple is short,. ',gilt and teehle. It was called
for a long time ed cotton. Iron the tact that
it was separated from the seed by the blows of a
howbtring.
Tennessee cotton is of nearly the same quality
'as the Georgia Upland. except that it is cleaner and
the staple a little longer.-
New Orleans cotton is superior to the last two
named lands, and may be said to occupy a mirdle
point between See Nand ann Georgia Upland .
Pernambuco cotton has a fine, long staple, clean
and uniform, and yarns made from it are in great
request among the stocking weavers
Demarara. Berenice and Maranham cottons are
fire Line glossy, and well cleaned. They are spun
into a fair stout yarn.
Bahia cotton is better than either of the two
;ki
niis last named.
Surinam cotton has a long staple, and is faintly
tinged with yellow.. It is clean.and much sought
after by hosiers.
West India cotton is from Bourbon seed; the
staple is fine and silky', but not well prepared.
Barba - does cotton has a slort staple, but is silky
and strong It appears in the market Yi ith much
husk."
GErsanst.Tsvaon.—The National Imelligencer
has received from Dr. Bronson, the gentleman to
whom it was addressed, a copy of thr following
letter from General Taylor
HEADQ.VAIITLAS AUSIT or OCCVPATIn7f,?
Camp near Monterey, Aug. 10, ISi 5
I have thus given you the circumstances under
which only can I be induced to accept the high
and responsible office •of President of the United
States. I need hardly add that I cannot iu any
case permit myself to be brought before the peo
ple exclusively by any of the political parties that
now so unfortunately divide our country, as their
candidate for this office.
It affords me pleasure, in conclusion, fully to
concur with you in your high and just estimate
of the virtues, both of head and heart, of the dis•
tinguished citizens [Messrs. Clay, Webster. Ad
ams, .M . Duffie and Calhoun.] mentioned in your
letter. I have never yet exercised the privilege of
voting ; but had I been called upon at the lust Presi
dential election to-do so. I should most certainly have
cast my vote for kr. Clay.
I am, sir, very respectfully. your obl. servant.
Z. TAYLOR. Major General U.-. S Army.
F. S. BRUNSON, M. D. Charleston, S. C.
Cotton in Mississippl.—The Vicksburgh Sentinel
of the 21st ultimo, says: "It is perhaps our duty
to state that so far as we are informed the alarm
as to the worm has proved wholly groundless.—
Neither the first nor the second generation has
done any injury worth speaking of and it is now
too late in the season for them to do any real dam.
age even should they appear in thei4r,reittest num
bers. So far as our observation and information
extends, the cotton crop will be a fair one."

"Jessee E. Dow, Itsq , of this city, has invented
a new Army Tent, (called Dow's Eagle Tent);
which will soon, no doubt, take the place of all the'

and meets the warm approval of all the officers
who have seen it. The tent is roomy, cheap, du
rable, without a tent, pole, without coral, button,
hook or pin, is pertettly ventilated, having a door,
a cellar and chimney. It is light, indistructable.

LOCAL MATTERS.
A GUXAT WOD.E.MIIOP.---We doubt it this
i country contains another such building as one we I
will describe below, which is located on Fifth
street, near our office. Any one who has been in
our neighborhood during the past six months,
must have noticed the apparent confusion that
existed in front of the building of H. H. Ryan. We
can compare his establishment to nothing but a
wing of the Phalanstery which has been so beau-
tifully described by a French philosopher, and
which is to be built in time to come. Ryan's is
not so elegant as the contemplated edifices of the
new order; yet in point of economy it seems equal
to any thing of the kind depicted by the " hopeful
few " We have often had a desire to rnn through
it, but we believe visitors are excluded, which is
a very proper regulation.
The whole plan of the establishmenl is original
and so constructed as to be entirely secure from
fire, which is an important consideration. The
engine is so powerful as to drive the immense
amount of machinery now running. A pipe is up
carrying water from the cellar to the garret ca
pable of taking up one thousand gallons of water
per hour. Plugs and hose are distributed through
each story. In fact every precaution against ac
cident has been adopted, so that the manufacturers
who occupy rooms in the building feel perfectly
safe. Excellent rules have been printed and pasted
up. which are rigidly enforced, and which add still
further to the security of the building.
We proceed to give a brief sketch of the branch
er of mechanics carried on in Ryan's " Hive."
The proprietor, who is an extensive manufactu
rer of cabinet ware, has a number of all es in op
eration, and does all kinds of turning in wood,
ivory and brass.
Waking/on has a very extensive sash and panel
door factory. He turns out a peat quantity of
excellent work.
Rhodes §....81c0rn have their machinery for grind
ing spices, &c., in this building. Their store room
is in the first floor, as all our business men know.—
Theirs is a new• business in this city, and one in
which they have no competition yet. They have
succeeded :n establishing themselves firmly
'R. g. W. Hanneford have a large and exten
sive factory, for making cabinet ware. They do
work in superior style, by steam. Their ware
house is on Fifth street, nearly opposite our office.
The manufacture of looking glass and picture
frames. is a eery important branch carried on in
Ryan's building, as will be seen by the following:
J. J. Gillespie ¢ Co work iu this branch. Their
store is on Wood street. Thomas Kennedy, Jr , be.
longs to the same branch ; store corner of Fourth
and Wood, Giatfard ¢ Stevenson, a New York
company, manufactures frames very extensively,
laud of superior quality. Samuel Kennedy has also
a room in this building for making frames His
store is nn Filth street, opposite the Theatre.
We observe that a pu-tinn of the building
occupied by Ryan, Ballard 4. Co, manufacturers
of wooden, type. Bradbury ¢ Ihrd, manufactu
revs of lasts, boot trees, Six. This firm does a
great business.
A W. Ballard, bus n splendid establishment for
the manufacture of engine lathes. Good mecban•
ics say that his machinery cannot be equalled in
this city.
Jordon Frahry, manufacturer of all kinds of
shovel and spade handles,
S. Botrland, manufacturer of rable cutlery.—
This is the only establi,hrnent of that kind in this
city. Excellent %sm.!: is turned out. Mr. R is
from Sheffield, England. and brought with him all
the machinery necessary in the business.
S. Thompson, has machinery for sawing. We
are told that he does work at rates In below what
it will cost to have it done by hand.
R. Taylor 4 Co , ha'e a v. ry extensive factory
for the manufacture of Rivets of all kinds; stole
on Liberty street.
Wm. K Patton, manufacturer of Brittania ware
of all kinds. An excellent bu,iness well followed.

BALL Roost ABSAULT AND LARCEIST.:--A man
named Bradley yesterday gave the Mayor informa
tion of an assault that had been made upon him
on Mondaynight in Eliza dolt's Ball Room, Sev
enth ward. Two brothers named Tibbs, made an
assault upon him, without provocation, and one of
them stabbed him seven tunes in the side. lie
was beat with a club, and his clothes torn in his
efforts to escape. While staggering under the ef
fects of his injuries one of them took from his
pocket about $22. The Police were sent for by
some of the inmate: of the house, but the rascals
escaped. The Mayor's constables took them yes
terday, and they were bound over to answer: A
part of the money was recovered.
These seventh ward balls are not the most plea
sant places of amusement in the city, as we judge
from this specimen. Perhaps it would be well
for the authorities to interfere in the matter and re
strict such entertainments reasonably.
pj' The venerable tattier Badin, who sung High
Mass at the Cathedral on Sunday last is now in
his 96th year, and has been in the Mississippi val
ley fifty-four years. He has been a witness of the
infancy, growth, and matured manhood of the
Great West. Old age sits lightly on his frame,
and the blessings of temperance and a guileless
mind, are realized in the vigor and cheerfulness
which animate the last days of a lile well spent.—
