and the majority for Irvin is about 1400. Patton
is nearly the same. We feel downzight ashamed

Saturday last, a portion (.1 - which, we understand,
was intended as a covert attack upon a respectable
democrat. Had we been aware that such was the
object of the writer, that portion of the commu
. nication, would of course, have been excluded -
Our rule has been, at all times, to avoid publishing
any thing reflecting upon democrats, and more
especially gentlemen of unimpeachable veracity.
We' have always thought that democrats should
live in harmony; and if they feel like assailing
any one, let them direct their fire against the com•
mon enemy. In this county, surely, %ve will find
plenty to do in battling the federalists, without
stirring - up bad feeling among oursel44.

PITTSBURGH:
THURSDAY SIORIsaNG, OCTOBER 14, 1397
The Late Freshets.
The storm of the oth instant; (of which we had
expected sooner to give Sortie particulars,) prod°.
ced very disastrous results in many parts of Mary
land and Virginia. We make a synopsis of the
statement contained in the Baltimore Sun,
On Thursday morning, it was with much difil
culty . the conductor of the train of cars for Cum.
berland, succeeded in reaching that place; and the
return train was so much retarded by high water,
and obstructions upon the railroad, as to be unable
to reach Baltimore until Saturday night—having
been delayed twenty four hours on the route. Con.
siderable damage has been done to the road, but
not sufficient to prevent the regular transportation
of passengers. A considerable breach was made
in the Chesepeake and Ohio Canal, near the Point
of Rocks; and at many points the canal was corn• I
pletely submerged. None of the bridges on the
National Road had been swept away; so that tray
ellingon that route was only interrupted by the
high water. From the great rise in the Monocacy
it was supposed much damage had been done
along that river, In Baltimore, Frederick and
Montgomery counties, much damage has been
done,on the farms near the rivers; and several
manufacturing establishments have been material.
ty injured. Dams have been swept away, corn
cut and standing in the field, has been washed
away, and farming utensils, wagons, &c , have
been swept off.
At Harpers Ferry, the damage done to govern.
nient property is estimated at $3OOO, and individu
als• are supposed to be sufferers to a much larger
- amount. The people of Winchester have suffered
—one merchant, it is said, having lost from 15 to
20 hogsheads of sugar, besides much other proper
ty in his celler. A large tanning, establishment
was completely flooded, and the proprietors (Messrs.
Bidwell, Brown & Sheerer,) have lost all the Stock
in the Wits. At Williamsport, Md. the destruction
has been immense: thousands of bushels of grain,
hogs, cattle, sheep, utensils, &c. &c. having been
adept away in large numbers. In the vicinity of
Hrookville, dams, fences, &c. have been extensive
ly carried sway; and in Cumberland many farni.,
lies were forced to retire to the'second stories of
their houses; and cattle, grain, lumber, &c. in
large quantities have been carried off—while
bridges have been swept away, and , tanneries entire
ly The Mount Savage and the Mary
-I,!d Mining Companies' works Kaye sustained con
\ ?rable injury. Same of the bridges on the Bal
timore, and Washington railroad have been de.
stroyed;sd in the village of 13Iadensburgh, the wa
'ter was a \high as the second story windows of
several of me houses. At Fredericksburgh, in
Virginia, the flaitp ‘ .l was equally great; and is with
out a parallel for upwards of GO years. In short ,
the streams in all Nit section ,of country, have
never been known to si.v. l l t s ci a greater extent than
during the last week.
Mr. Noble.
This gentleman, although doubt elected,
stands lowest on the federal ticket.. He is a very
respectable man, and a member of\the Catholic
church. The federalists nominated him for the
- Assembly, not because they had the slightest love
for the man, but simply for the reason that\they
thought by placing hlm in nomination, they would
secure the Catholic vote for Gen. Irvin and the
- whole federal ticket. The result shows that they
deceived themselves vastly. The Democratic'
Catholic voters of Pittsburgh could not be decei
Ted by a trick so shallow. The federalists them-1
: selves cut Mr. Noble in every district in the coun
ty, which is the best evidence we could ask that'
that party proscribe men for opinion's sake. Let I
this fact hereafter be borne in mind by ourli-Cath
olic fellow ihtizens.
The rise in the Allegheny and . Monongahela
rivers took away, from this and the adjoining coo
flea an immense number of men 'engaged in the
lumber and coal business, who, of course, lost their
votes on Tuesday. It is estimated that . 150 pair of
coal boats went out of the Monongahela, within a
fevr.days past. It requires on an average, 10 men
to manage each boat, ss hich would be about 1500
col men who did not vote, At least two-thirds of
these are democrats. The troll vote in Lower
St. Clair township was in corsequence of the coal

We made every effort tysterday to obtain the

The Democracy have coJ u eied themselves with
glory, by firmly and fentlesti asserting and main

It is impossible to tell s,4hat the Democratic

that Governor Shook will have over 10,000, per.

The lion. Edmund Burke, formerly member of
Congress limn Nov Hampshire, and now at the
head of the iPatent °ni c e i n Washington, has ad
dressed a long letter to Col. Stimbaug, of Lances
ler, Pa , wi;iol cOtilaiwt many interesting fact,
relative to tha
o peratioivof the Old and New Tari ff,
That the %Ma' increase of exports'in 18.46-7,
partly owing to the famine in. Europe, we readily
admit, but after attributing to this cause all the
efficacy which may be claimed, the Protectionist,
gill find it difficult to dispose of the remaining
facts in a manner consistent with their theory.
E.rt,acts from Mr. 11tOke's Letter.
IVasititiorotir, Sept. l 23, 1547. Dear Sir—agreeably to your reqitest, made to
me when you were in this city a tew days since.
I proceed to give you some faeta illustrative of the
operation of the tariff of 1546. ' You are aware that
but partial and imperfect returns have been reeeiv.
ed of the trade and commerce Cif the Union, since .
the last report of the Register icif the Treasury has
been published, and since the close of the last Coal •
merciul year, which is considered by merchants to
end the last day of August ofeach year. But such
returns as have been received afford the most grat
ifying' results.
I will first give you, in contrast, the returns of
the export trade for the port of .New York, (those
of the whole Union for 1547 not having been re
ceived) for the first eight months of they ears 1845,
1846, acid 1847. They are us 14tillows.

Excess of exports for the same period over cx•
'ports in 1845, $18.73D,4551!!
The tariff 01 184(1 went into operation December
1, 1846; consequently the exports from New York
for the period above mentioned 01 the present year,
Were under the existing tariff. The exports fur the
years 1645 and 1646 were under'. the turiffc•f 1542 .
The whole amount of the expOrts from the port,
of New York—
In 1841 Was 920,558,416
In 1844 was 28,536,779 i
In 1841 w - 29,112,664 1
In 1846 was 34,938,542
Thus the exports from the port of New York
during the first eight months of 1847, exceeded. by
millions. tine whole amount of the export* foe the years!
1843, 1644. 1645, and 1846 LI . 1 I come now to;
the exportation of Ineadstufts. •
It appears from the returns of the commercial
year ending August 31,1847, that the lolliyaing
quantities of flour, wheat, and other grains, were
during that year exported from the United States,

Thus it appears that the quantity of wheat, corn
and other kinds of grain, the products of the farm
er, exported in 1817. exceel the tlntcptyof the
same kinds of grain exported in 15.16, by nearly
twenty.seven millions of bushels. ; And the value
of the same exports in 1847 exceeded the value of
those of 1846 by the bull] of thtrlysi. millions of

Thus the tariff of 1846 has produced over three

nine months of its operation. commencing Dec.

during the same period,co.nmencing, Dec. 1, 1b45.
The average rate of duties under. The tariff of
1642, reduced to the ad valorem !standard was
31 40.100 per cent. Under the tariff of 1546, the
average rate is 'JO 1 23 10,.1 per cent. ' Therefore, to
give o'o great increase of revenue above stated, un
der a diminished rate of duties, the imports into
the country must have increased one third at least
Thus has the commercial business of the country
been vastly increased in both its branches.ot ex

the tariff of 1846. This is another ruinous fact for
sensible people to ponder upon, and particularly!
the advocates of the tariff of 154'2, taking it fur
granted that they ore sensible people.
I will now proceed to show that wihile there has
been no decrease, there has generally lbeen the same
improvement in regard to prices, as well of coal

I will now take up the article of wool. I have
before me the Bankers' Weekly Courier, published
in the city of New York, in October,llB , ls, three
years after the tariffof 1842 went intd force; and I
also have before me the Dry Goods Reporter, pub
lished in the same city, dated September 11, 1847.
From these two publications, I copy the following
prices of wool:
Prices in Oct. '45. Prices in Sept. , 47
Amer. Saxony, per lb. 36 to 38c 40 to 45c

Thus have the prices of wool bee ! n advanced

they were in 1845 under the tariffof 1842.

n unfortunate girl, who for years has
been walking over the path . that leads to the
devil," as Bentham says, was taken heti] the
mreet, on Sunday, by a humane lady, who lives
near the city, with the intention of effecting a re-
I formation, if possible., The' girl (who is well
known on the Police records of this county,) was
kindly provided for: clothed and cleaned ; and,
in short, eaery inducement offered her to change
her habits of life. The good lady at first had,
hopes of success ; but how chagrined and distres
sed was she, on discovering that the object of her
care had fled! The vagrant was not thirty•six
hours in her new home. Thus it is with some
who are prostituted and degraded by the ad;erse
circumstances that surround them. It is true
enough, that kind treatment will reclaim many
who are deeply sutik in iniquity; but there are
too many exceptions such as the one noted above.

Late from Mexico !
PHILADELPHIA, October 13, 8 o'clock, P. M.
The Spanish paper at New Orleans, La Patria,
has rumors from the city of Mexieo, which are
generally discredited, to the effect that ihe Ameri
can troops in the city, hare had severe conflicts
with the Mexicans, and owing to the forces of the
latter being superior, the American loss was very
MEM
It is said that Gen. Scott withdrew froth the
city. Santa Anna thea'advanced from Guadaloupe;
`with an army of 10,000 fighting men, and the
fighting was resumed. The conflict was going on
desperately at the last accounts.
• Gen. Rea is also said to have obtained complete
possession of Puebla, but the American troops
occupied the heights•in the neighborhood of the_
city—a commanding position, and - were pouring
a destructive fire upon the enemy.
No news direct from Gen. Scott.

ceed as far as Dajaco. No bombardment of the
city occurred. it was taken possession of by
1500 men, without any resistance, save some
slight-skirmishes with the rat.ble. The Mexican
Womeii demanded muskets of Santa Anna, but he
was upside to supply them.
Generals Worth, Pillow, and Smith, were unin
jured in the engagements.
Gen. Worth was appointed Governor of the
City of Mexico
The total American loss in the two battles was
23 officers killed and 47 wounded; 49u...men killed
