But thc.peoplc are not aeaes to be ridden upon by these - 'gentry ; nor.are they (hois to be duped by them. TUe Model Artistes. The good people of Pittsburgh will soon have an opportunity of seeing the celebrated “ Model Ar tistes’? of Dr. Collyer, who have created so much excitement in the Eastern cities. That hundreds •M.tf ousands of people will visit the exhibition, we do not entertain o doubt; but that the virtuous, modest and respectable ladiei of this city will pa tronize the “ Models” by their presence, we do not believe.. If exhibitions of this description ire en couraged, something infinitely'more disgusting will neit be attempted by profligate men and abandoned women. That our readers may know what is thought * of .these exhibitions abroad, wo copy the following (rom the Philadelphia Bulletin : • VramED.— When Dr. Collyer was in Philadelphia with his ‘‘Model Artistes,” ivo thought it our duty as a public journalist, to de- Aonncethe exhibition. \\ e then declared that the ri ditl mischief, not only by his own improper ta hleattl, but infinflely greater reiscliiefl.y the counte nance.be gave to. worse exhibitions of the kind.— We propheeicif that, if the bcUer portion or the community could be made to sustain the Dr.’e ta blcaug, the less refinci portion of it would demand something worse, and that, in time, the most dis gutting results would bo the consequence. In a wor Collyer’s “ Model Artistes” at thepp*tring door.that was to let in a torrent of indecency. , „ I,ale hoen ■ verified. We see that' in New -Totrk, the other evening, when one or the “ fair models” appeared in the usual dishabille, the cry arose (briber, to come forth nude, with which de mud’she complied. This disgusting fact wc record; and forerer drop the subject. TbcPettosjivanian has the following paragraph: “ Since the. manifestation bv Dr. Collyer of his c statuesque groupcs are exhibited Rt.Ml Wiejminor theatres. Ladies and gentlemen of ?¥*?'• tightly indoed, in mar ble-colored integuments, represent Diana and her Nypiphs, the Three Graces, Cupid and Pysche, and Tanous other groups; famous in profaoe history.” BtUi’we -are told that, Mr. Clat has thrown Iho weight-of his influence in favor of the “Models;” thereforethe exhibition is proper, and will be patron ized, by. the friends of the “ embodiment” in this city. The Washington correspondent of the Pcters burghbßepuldican, writes : The Models. Henry Clay, accompanied by sev eraf distinguished men, attended Dr. Coliyer’a exhi bition'. of;the Mode) 'Artistes,’on Wednesday night. An elegant piece was produced to his honor, which was ;<jtftceive'd ;in elegant tlirte. Mr.' Clay was highly .delighted,dwd invited'iheproprietor to bring hiamndels to his room in the 11. S. Hotel. Thisaf tefnpqh,,“ Sapho,”, ‘ r Cleop4tfa,’’ *‘ Venus,” the IS#;P*»J er r” .nud others, paid the distinguished gentleman a visit, but of coarse in different .attire from that worn in thei- personations. Mr. Clay cautioned Cleopatra not to let the Asp sting her to death. These exhibitions are well attended. They «fS extddatly. thc.most attractive entertainments if the lay.' 1 The whijga are attempting: to get up a coarse cot ton jwmc, and also an irort panic, although itisae ®erH“W?:tyat*«oMr from“niining the iron interest. Pennsylvania alone, has produced seventy million - pounds mere of iron in 1347, than i n the previous year. But we are to have all sorts 'of panics, for xh*purp£se of operating on the Presidential cam *>aign.- We should not be astonished at their raising - “ W{ c M> r P*d ” panic, which was so famoui i.a j*44, m tbe jog cabin of Richmond. : . f W'iosAmgfon Union. Just es.sure asa Presidential campaign comes Around, the,,federal party attempt to get up a panic, for the, purpose offorcingthe farmers, mechanics and .laborers of .the country to vote for their candi dates. This game is so well understood, that the people look for it, asa matter of course. The fede ral party dare not go before the poople, avow their principles, anti discuss the great questions which has divided people sincethe organization of our govern ment.: They endeavor to get up some collateral issue—-abuse and misrepresent the Democracy, and claim for themselves all the political honesty and virtoem the land. From this time until, the next P^siJeutia.l.‘ c lection, we may look for nothing but heart-rending descriptions of the awful distress f!) which prevails amongst the manufacturers, iu con sequence of the Tariff .of 1840, and other measures of the present Democratic administration! •3T 1 The.

Of the influence exerted upon thc-minds of tire Mexicans, by the speeches of the federal orators, and thc'articlca on the subject of tho war by Fed eral editors,.there can be. no doubt. Mexico did not so much as pretend to claim that portion of the territory ofTexas between the Rio Grande and the River Nueces, until the assertion 61 her right to that territory, by the Federalists, when the question of the annexation of Texas was agitated in our country. Her claim then was—the whole of Texas; believing, doubtless, that the Federal party would be enabled to triumph, and that, at their hands, she could real ize her claim. The same spirit which was mani fested by them, on that question, lias been mani fested in relation to the war. They have asserted that their own . country was in the wrong,—that Mexico was right—and that all our difficulties origi nated iu the imbecility, or the evil passions of the President. Every indepcndonPpntriot who writes from Mexi co, informs his countrymen, of the effect produced in that country, by the speeches of Webster, Clay, Corwin, and the demagogues who are pandering to tbeir perverted minds. And still >hey persevere in the »amc course in which they set out—to maketheir count! y appear in the wrong, and gain the approval of % foreign foe. They regard not the appeals of theircountrymen, who have suffered the perils of a campaign in Mexico; who are capable ofappreciating the state of affairs in that country, from constant intercourse with the citizens, and observation o their preceding#*, but still go on to assert that their own country is wrong, and that Mexico is in the right. Pursuing such a course as this, can it be wondered al, that, those who hjtve acted with them in their former party movements, should desert and denounce them, in this unholy course? The latest rebuke which we have seen, coining from our countrymen'in Mexico, is contained in a letter wjiich, says the Washington Union, “is from the pen of a gentleman who w** once a whig member of Congress, from Pennsylvania, and is now in command of a company of volunteers, and the governor of the national palace in the city of Mexico.*’ This gentleman cjd be no other than the Hon. CiuiLCS Naylor ; and tho position which be has occupied among political men in our country, cannot be mistaken. Ilia Ictlc* is a most severe but just rebuke to all the “moral iraitors” in our country —(to Webstar-, Clay, Corwin, and M'Lean) —wherever they may be found, or under what pre tence soercr they may be opposing their country. Wc commend this extract to the intention of even reader; and hope that our friends will hold up to the merited execration of theircountrymen, all who sustain the infamous band of parasites who come tviihin the purview of its coudcmmng influence:— OOOKKmUUWW I belicrc that there can he no peace. I have always believed this; and my belief is confirmed by the occurrences of every day. Let there be de cision in the administration; and then let us have vigorous decision inihcanny. • ♦ * • 'pj ie whig* are mad. I hang my head with humiliation and shame when 1 think 1 have been a member of their party. Mr. Webster’s speech has been repub lished here, by the Mexicans, in every variety of form, as well as a synopsis of Mr. Clay’s ; and they have been made the foundation of appeals to the Mexican people, confirming them in their indeci sion—flattering their hopes that one of the great parlies of onr country will arrest the prosecution of the war, and putting off forever, in mv opinion-, all prospects ofan amicable settlem ntofit. It teems tome that the whig leaders are guilty if the worst kind of treason. . I have discovered, here, that some one in the States, who has had access to all the publications of the country, has-been in corres pondence with the Mexican Secretary nPStitc, and has transmitted to himpll the articles'of the Amen can press favorah'c to ,the.Mexican* and the Mexi can cause. I ha\c in iny posarsso.n nearly three hundred of these articles. Many of them were translated and republished here j aud one of them, an article from the “New York Express,*’ (an ap peal tothe Catholics of the United States to oppose Mr. Polk’s administration, upon the grousd that the war was a religious war—a crusade against the Catholic religion iu Mexico,) has not only been published in the Mexican papers, but printed in hand bills, and circulated oy thousands at all the churrh doors in the city of Mexico. H'ho can t*U t in view of facts like these, how much of the blood that has been shed in this war isowing to the action of such publications?.' Under the auspices of an energetic and public spirited citizen, Major Larimer, the Connellsvilic Railroad project promises yet to be of that vast ad vantage to Pittsburgh, which u-as once anticipated by every member of this community. We rejoice to be able to inform our readers, that the difficul ties which heretofore existed between the “ Robin • son" and “ Larimer ’’ Boards, have been adjusted, by tho resignation of every member of the old Board; and tho oiection pt the gentlemen compos ing the Board of which Major Larimer is President, in their stead. The Major is now at the head of the Connellsvilic Company, without a rival. We learn, from Harrisburg, that the bill abolish ing tho penalty of death has been lost in the Senate, by a vote of twelve in its favor, to .sixteen against it. We are sorry that there was not enough of the true spirit of Christian philanthropy in that body, to blotfrom our statute hooks this relic of barbarism. The yeas and nays were as follows : Yeas—Messrs. Brawlcy, Darsie,Johnson (Erie,) Mason,Matthias. Sadler, Sanderson, Sankev, Smith, Streeter, Wilson, Speaker—l 2. Nays-Messrs Benner, Best, Black, Bonn, Crabb, Creacraft, Forsyth, Gillia, Harris, Johnston, (Arm strong,) Uevis, Middleswarth, Ovorfield, Potieigrr, Smyser, Sterrett—l6. Bill lost. Absent—Messrs. Hill, King, Jordan, Rich, Rich ardson, and Small. ' Whether the result voutd have been different in a full Senate, we are unable to determine ; but we are satisfied that tbosn who voted in the negative will bo obliged to their position on thia question, erelong, or consent to move iu some oth er sphere. \ Marylawd Politics.— 'Washington Uouifunt,esq., a member of the house of delegates from Mont gomery county, (says the Baltimore Clipper,) in a letter «o the Patriot, in relation to the statement that a majority of the members of the legislature are favorable to Gen. Taylor, says : “ Now', sir, l consider it due t*» random ml frank ness to give a flat contradiction to tills statement of your correspondent, and I assert "that a large ma- - jonty of the whig members of the legislature of Maryland are not only not unfavorable to Mr. Clay,! bul decidedly in ravor or him a. the whig candidate lb. the next presidency.

Haxiper: I am glad to observe, that the lew remarks which 1 made to the ptibiic, through your paper, have called forth sundry articles Bn the subject of our schools; which may be conducive of good, to the groat cause of moral and intellectual progress. That reform is needed in 'our present system of education, no intelligent man will deny. All agree, that our public schools are 1 ! far behind those ol New England, and, even ofeistcrnitSenn sylvania ; and this fault is owing to tliii: apalhv and indifference ol parents, more than to want oliJfcipa city in teachers,and management oh.the.part of Directors. Public interest must be manifested, in order to promote a salutary reform in 1 ho schools. Let those brave spirits, who are to be found in eve ry community, step forward, and assist in the good cause ol enlivening and enlightening public Senti ment; ard we shall soon see the people roused to an ade. uate sense of the importance of education, and the tree of knowledge bearing, in ilie sunidiinc, its fruits and Us flowers. 1 hope that,,the citizens oi Pittsburgh will not pass this subject]; bv, without a special consideration. I appeal to‘;the rich as well as to the poor, for both arc equally interested General education is the best preventive of Crime and pauperism. It quickens and invigilates £jie in tellect; it makes men industrious, ecdhomielil and tbruty; it guarantee* the safety of propertyiv and elevates ilie character and condition of tile huitvblest ranki m *ucieiv. : Society is a political partnership; bid as ft is at present constituted, the profits are very uncquslly distributed ; and this unequal distribution will edn- Unuc; until, by a general education, the rigSk of men will be better understood and maintained? If the puor man has little hope of seeing hm condition exalted in his own day and generation, lie (should do all in Ins power to have the caste and stigma of ig nuranco and poverty, removed from l»ls children. do ml mean to say that the rich are qliliohtencd, and the poor mentally benighted : oflen'the reverie is the fact; but any one who shall glaricc abroad over the community, cannot but see, thSi toil Vith out adequate remuneration, is not the (fit of those persons, who have had the advantagjj* of a good 1 wish to call public attention to oftr common schools. I rctlcrate what I before a.sWledJ that they arc not used, in this city, alike by lie riclfand poor ; and, to be prosperoua, they musliijie the'only scliools in the community. I propoaed the csuhlish ment ol a High School for the cwisiderktion of our citizens; and 1 flatter myself, that public] attention is directed towards such an instrtution. The Usifcrsi ly has been suggested, as a substitute Tor a High School; and l have not yet been convinced, bf the arguments ol ilie opponents of the measure, that the suggestion is a bad one. Ifthe advanced scholars of the public schools were transferred, (after. a uioner exam,nation on the pan or the School Directors- of the different wards, as.cmbled as a general board for that purpose) to ( the University, where they might have a cullege education, gratuitously to the paririits, and at but a trifling expense to society, of* which the parent IS a taxable member, it would be ir vaat! im prove ment on the present imperfect syktem. ibne mill per centum on the taxable property of Pittsburg would thoroughly educate every boy senfiu thc lfni voisily from the advanced claisea of the public schools. This sum would be inadequate: to support an Independent High School ic our city, alter efect irg suitable buildings and purchasing the: ineccsliary plnlosopliic.il apparatus and cabinets. ;llf such a ui. asure could be cfl'e ted, the School Di'rcciofs of tiic city wuul.i fiv the terms of tuition and! havcctho management of the funds ; and not the Tfustoeif of the Uiiivcisity, ns a wii’er in your paper^htimates. A word or two on the subject of tho School if ax being general, and I have done. One ofiynur fcor respondents dunks, teat, to sustain the scjiodls by a general tax over the city, would be unjust, arid op pressive to the old wards. I think be bah taken but a superficial view of this point. It is wicill kndvvh, that all the wards have their school houses erected, nr that they are being built. None of them h’svc surplus funds in tho hands of their treasurers ;iand thus they stand upon the same platfinmil If aiij of the wards are in debt for their buildings, letifhc debt he paid by special taxation on the citixlK of that ward. Some of the now wards are ahead of the old in their school houses;—take, fur example, the beautiful edifice in the Sixth- Ward, -credit lo the city. On this subject, where the in terests and benefits are universal, sectional jealous ies should not bo tolerated ; their existence pnfy shows weakness in the bead, or littleness in-Hie heart, of the man who could be influenced by tiiem. If these views arc worthy of consideriitioqj and the School Directors of the city are awhitned by them into a desire to promote the causejof educa tion, by elevating ihe condition or the wand schools, and at ihe same lime, establishing a high sehSol, where the youth of our city can have Mic higher branches of knowledge taught them ; orii.to the ac complishment of the same end, by sending to the University, those ndvancod voiitlis who jkave Apti tude for learning, then, a'n humble individual, who has no personal interests to gratify ,save those he holds in common, with his feilow-citlxcusj-will feel that he lins not lived in.

Shaw.” This is a little work, just from the-press, which we lmrc found quite interesting. We were first directed to it and induced to study its pages, by the Jett* r of Grace Greenwood, which spoke in such glowing terms of its merits as a religions and scien tific work. The writeris oneofthosepowerful French autho-s who is making a mark upon his age that time can not obliterate. Mr. Shatf deserves the thanks of the American public for the production of the work in our language. The title was chosen by the author, because he sought to explain how the divine Word, “after having been incarnated in a man who is the head of the model of humanity, must at last be incarna ted in the whole of humanity by the communion of all to the intelligence of one same spirit, and to fraternity of one same Jove.” We will give our readers a taste of it merely, and trust that it, will be enough to give an idea of the author. ~ * . We quote a few paragraphs from the Paolocue “ * I will not leave you fatherless,’ said the Christ, when about to quit the earth ; « J will come acain to you.* •• “Ye people, who have believed in the words of the Christ, and who still a consoler, know that the Chrin, your Saviour, has never abandoned you. Know that he suffers with you, that he labors with you, that he groans, and that he prays with v ou. . “ The Christ is the human form of the divine idea. That form you are all called nj on to realize, and to ciolhe*yourteivc«anew with its royal majesty. *••** • * i r “ Because it was necessary that humanity should first learn how to sufier, in order to know how to be happy afterwards ; should know how to obey, in order to learn bow to reign. It was to holy and austere poverty that was intrusted the education of the heirs of Gad, in order that through privations they might learn the true use of their Father’s riches. “ In tca.hing men to love their neighbor more than themselves, and their soul more than their body, and God more than their soul, the Christ emancipated them from the servitude of the flesh, and he elevated the flesh itself by calling it to share the glory of free souls. “ The Christ did not limit his word to an exclu sive form; the spirit of which it contains the germ is universal. “ He sowed the seed, and time has ripened the grain. “ The word of the Christ, like that of the ancient prophets, has had unintelligent 'ftnd|sclf-interested interpreters, who haTc wiahod to seal it like the stone of his sepulchre. \ “But the word traverses stones, and cannot be kept captive; it escapes in spite of walls; it passes in spite of gale* of iron ; it goes forth in spite of seattnols. “ Brothers, the word of the Christ is the word 6f liberty, of equality, of fraternity. . “ Of liberty, because he has told us not to fear those who can kill the body, and to preserve before God the independence of our souls. “Of equality, because he has said to us: yon have all only one and tbc same father, one and the same master: he is God, and you are all brothers f “Of fraternity, because he has told tho strong to be the protectors of the weak, the learned to in struct the ignorant, the rich to provide for the ne cessities of the poor. •*•*••* “The sciences gravitate toward* their grand synthesis; unity governs all ideas, and harmony ur ranges them in a marvellous order ; analogy givos to faith, enlightened by science, die key of all pro blems j synthesis brings together all symbols, and proclaims religious unity by the voice of all ages; the truly Catholic idea merely begins to be born, and those old men arc there, stopping their ears, closing their eyes, make themselves motionless up on the ruin* ol the past; like urns upon grave* ! Well then, since those who should teach the people have no longer any voice, since the Word has no longer any need of them fer interpreters, let □« boriow a new goßpeUegccd from the genius or the people, and from their aspirations after human ilary progress l “ Let us complete the epopmia of tbe Christ by the allegorical recital of his second comiug, and let us relate bis triumphs to those who have wept so much over his sorrows. •••*••• “ We shall borrow from the ancient gospel legend ns simple and popular form; for he who speaks to all must use language which may be understood bv all.’ 1 We quote again from the Epilogue : *< We have not had the intention of writing a new gospel, but we have endeavored to apply to the diseases of modern society the always powerful vir tue of the ancient gospel spirit, by making the Christ speak as wc can think be would speak, should he ogiin come among us. • * ♦ * ♦ * * ** Christianity is at last about to realize us promi ses; and philosophy arriving at unity by means of synthesis, is becoming essentially religious. Rea son it also about to bo reconciled for ever with Faith. “ God has given to us the intellect in order that wc may understand,and the heart in order that we may love : and by thc£fceiing he gives to our hearts of his harmonics, he raises our spirit even tobimsclf. J* God being supreme wisdom, has created every thing for an end, and has given to all his creatures the means of attaining the end which he assigns to them. He preserves harmony among the stars by the laws of attraction, and it is by the same laws that he has regulated beferehand tho destinies of men. 4< The attractions are therefore proportional to the destinies. “ Now, the different attractions all have harmonic unity for their end, but they roust cause all wills to act in different circle* magnificently co-ordained among themselves. An immense chain of harmo ny connects with God all KU works, and from se ries to scries he distributes life to all beings. “ The series distributes the harmonies . “ Analogical relations exist between the series, and are as the steps .of the ladder of science, of that ladder of gold of which the prophet formerly saw during his sleep, and which assisted the spirits to ascend from earth to heaven, and to descend from heaven to earth. For iht Meriting Past; <r These are the bases of the hew science ; they are founded upon all philosophical and religious traditions; and we, can say that they are not the principles of a school, but the theorems of the most advanced science, and the incostcstablc dogmas of true universal Religion.” Death jk Jail.— Th« Coroner was yesterday called upon to hold an inquest upon the body of a woman named Catharine APGoivin, who came to her death in jail by a very singular accident. While sho and another female prisoner were spa ring on the corridor in front of the second tier of cells, sl& kick ed at her companion, whom she missed, and losing her balance, she fell over the railing, and struck the stone floor below upon her bead. She expired in a riiort time. This occurrence took place about 11 o’clock yesterday. The deceased was In prison on the chargo of vagrancy. The verdict of the jury was in accordance with the abovo facts. JEST We think we speak truth in'sayingthat ** Al den’s P reject” has died out. No one cared for it— no one had raspectfor a thing so preposterous .and silly. It was gigantic on account of the means re quired to insure complete (success ; but any person could start a plan requiring millions of dollars in its prosecution. We think our most intelligent citi zens aim at something higher than “ Inns ofCourt;” the means could be better employed. There are other interests to be cared for in community, and which now imperatively demand action. Ifthe mo ney required for the erection of Aldcn’s Inns of Court, was devoted to a correct system of Educa tion. the next generation would very well get along without the legal profession, in our little district.

This has been brought about by the indefatigable exertions of Major Larimer, who has spared neither time nor expense in removing tht obstacles in the way of the speedy prosecution of the Pittsburgh and ConnelUville Road. A Sjlxoht. Dispute.— While walking down .Wood street, yesterday, we saw a crowd assembled before: a store door; and there appeared to. be considera ble excitement. Two men bad each other by the arms, aside, and were engaged in loud 'talk.. At length they parted, and wo heard the cause of the dispute. A tenant of the second story was prepa ring to remove his goods, without paying the rent, and the landlord resisted. The tenant charged, in reply, that there was another cause, but did not say what it was. What a pity. friend Rees still continues to enlighten the street walks, on Sundays, by his eloquence and reasoning. Some who do not appreciate all hik ideas, sometimes treat him badly; by making vulgar remarks, and in other ways. On last Sunday, the officers of the- Peace interfered, and locked one man up for this offence. We wish Israel could be convinced of the feet that his harrangues are not felt very deeply in community ; that he might sec the policy of retiring to private life, and be con tented to let tbe world move on as directed by •uprene power. fcaT Mr. Spencer’s success at the Odeon,has been so far equal to that of his former exhibitions. The excitement has not yet subsided ; and each even ing crowds attend. Tho experiments of Monday evening, were very interesting. A committee was appointed by the audience, to investigate the ex periments j who unanimously reported favorably to the operator. This evening, Mr. Spencer gives another Lecture, with experiments. SET Tbe Evening Mail publishes the names of the Watch cases brought before the Mayor. We think this wrong; but since the editor will persist, be does right in making no# distinction as to persons. The public will be amazed occasionally, times distressed, to see familiar names on the list- Our advice is to all. to endeavor to keep straight, and the guardians of the night will not molest them, nor will the Mail expose their mishaps. Bubglabs Aabested.—A -telegraphic despatch was reccivcd t by the Independent Police yesterday, from Cincinnati, giving the' agreeable intelligence that the Pittsburgh Burglare, Robinson, Lutz and Cook, had been arrested, and were safely lodged in prison in Madison, Indiana. The Cincinnati Po lice took) them. Hague started immediately lor them, and will no doubt return with theburglars in a few days. This breaks up one gang entirely. The Native Sapper will be served up on the evening of the 22d, in tho Athcnamm Saloon. It is bound to be good—to be worth a dollar. Dr. Coatc’s Lecture, in the afternoon, is to be feee. We will hear it; for we are anxious to know i* he is a “ whole team and a big dog under the wagon,” as he has been represented. We think he might spend his words for higher game than Na« tivism. Baekev Williams.— This gentleman takes his Benefit at the Athcnenm this evening. His bill of fere is quite satisfactory—it is a good one. But the chief” attraction [is Barney himself, and bis inimitable brogue. He is an Irishman in more re spects than one.

Give him a bumper to-night. i S3T* The Lecture in the Sixth Ward Schoo 1 House, on Friday evening next, will be doliverelby Mr. T. jT. Kuteon. The subject of the Lecture will be Elocution. Rev.
