The whote` amount of their annual huiffneiss, in there set oral manufactures, was valued, iu]uoc last , at seven hundred and ten thousand dol lars, sod the cost of the materials used in the man ufacture, at three hundred and eighty-two thousand eight hundrtd and thirty dollars. The manufactured articles takes to make up the first of these great sums are--55,000 kegs of Nails, 3,000 tons of bar iron, 1,500 tons of boiler and sheet iron, &c., and about 240 tons of Spring and Blister Steel. Esti mating the expense of manufacturing these articles here at a higher rate than they have been computed to cost'else‘% hero; the profits oil these manufactures would amount to the very handsome sum of two hundred and five thousand dollars, (say $200,000,) or Arty per cent. upon the investment, after deducting all expenses, excepting, perhaps that of house rent; and assuming, as we do, that the different articles rehired to, can be manufactured as cheaply here as elsewhere, wdiare ' fully justified in stating the clear profits arfilty per cent. upon their whole investment. It is a well knovvu fact, that nearly all who have invested their' means in the iron manufacture; fur some years past, have realised fortunes by it. :This .sprerernot dispsed to . complain of. We, on the c.,catrary, rejoice to see every man, engaged in a • useful calling, enjoying the full - tide of prosperity ; and he who has the greatest amount of capital, or of Industry and business capacity, (which is better ttian morta-,oney capital,) ought to thrive, and ever will thrive in .our country; unless under the .operation of as we shall continue to war against, that give to :tie aggregations of the " almighty dollar," which. never should be accorded to it. .Thole' who have made such rapid fortunes, from ..fitseldithiligtkeir.

Those who invest their money in stock com panies always feel safe, if an income of nix per cent. is derived from their investment; and larger divi dends than from six to ten per cent. are looked upon as indicating a wonderful degree of prosperity. The editors of the Gazette, then, need not expect us to receive their statement, (that our iron mills cannot "be kept in operation, at a profit that mill repay their otenerr,"; without a great degree of al lowance. They are identified with the interests of those she conceive that the true policy of the goy ernnient is, to " take care of the rich, and the rich will take care of the poor :" they sustain all the men, and all the measures, favoring this system—the wealthy capitalists, the paper money banters, the incorporated eompanies,"withall other schemes cal- Ciliated tolead to the'dependence of the masses nit thefts° ; and therefore it is to be expected that they ' will always bo ready to minister to any flame, which those with-whom they are aiiied may seek to enkin dle, calculated to light then' way to fortune, even though it may consume the men who they assert are defrauded, by the acts of a Democratic adminis tration, of their means of livelihood.

It has been the constant policy of your party to do so ; but, unless you have in sour own hands the means by which to produce distress in the com munity, all your cries of panic, distress, and ruin, will be unavailing. When the country is laboring under real embarrassment, from whatever cause, then is the time when your party can make their har vest: for then, no matter what may be the true causes, the inasa of our countrymen rtri that there is something wrong; and may be as they sometimes have been, misled. But we can ever enjoy the glori- OU3 corulation, (whenever Federal cries, operating upon the necessities of the People, may gain for your party a triumph,) that your elevation :s but temporary : for " the sober second thought of the People, sel dom wrong, and always efficient," has never yet tolerated your continuance in power. Tremendous Gathering in Nevs York. The New York Globe of Tuesday, contains a full account of the immense meeting in that city on Mon day, to respond to the glorious Revolution in France. The meeting assembled in the Park, and it is esti mated that the number present amounted to One Hundred Thousand persons! The Globe says: " Among those who were present on this joyful occasion, wertithe entire French pepulation of our citj —the Germans en masse--the Swiss—the ' ans--natives of Spain—Holland—of England, Wales, Scotland, Austria, Russia, Prussia, and even among the crowd we witnessed several original subjects of the Grand Sultan, and a number of Chinese." The Globe then enters into a minute description of this truly imposing spectacle. The day was open ed with a discharge of 100 guns in the Park at sun rise, simultaneously with which the city coat of arms was displayed from the central flag-staff upon the Ilall, while tie tri-color, blending with the stars and stripes, floated in the eastern breeze on either wing. The French Republican Banner was also hoisted upon most of the shipping in port, and near ly every vessel was gaily dressed with every availa ble bit of bunting which could be sent aloft. A procesi ion of the natives of Continental Europe was formed, which marched through the principal street:, accompanied with imul , stirring music. Cries of" Vice la Republique!" " Hurrah for the French Revolution!" " Freedom to Ireland!" " Freedom to Evaorc!" "yitErcow TO TUE WOIILLD!!" &c., were continually arendiiig from4bet ‘ toyftll and pa triotic crowd. After the procession haci,e. :Yr';,..t.-:f , Kbeting was organized, by the selection ~a.Hsnor as President, and a large number Presidents and Secretaries, from amongst the nzives of France Ireland, Germany, Italy, &c., who were present.— Soul.stirring speeches were made by various speak- The editor of the Globe concludes an able article in reference to the meeting in the following words: The commencement of a glorious uprising of the people of the European world has been made under prospects more glorious than ever before. The friends of human rights rational liberty, in our city, met yesterday to sympathize and rejoice at the suc cess so far. The beginning is auspicious, and may it be justified by the end. Thrones, incrusted fur ages with human gore, begin to move to and fro, as if some mighty earthquake were shaking their foun dations. The handwriting is visible upon the wall. There it is, written in legible characters—' Tr. RANTS, USURPERS, YOU WHO IMPIOUSLY ASSUME TO ROLE DT RIGHT DIVINE, READ YOUR INEVITABLE DOOM! DESPOTS, YOUR AVTIGORITT IS FADING AWAY! LIBER TY, EQUALITY FRATERNITY, IS OUR nterro." What the World think• of Tory Whig• An American Consul, writing from one of the most distant ports, where our flag of commerce vis its, writes thus: '•The course that the Whig party and the Whig presses in (articular are taking against the Mexican , war, and the honor of our country, and their bitter and malignant opposition to the administration of the government, is looked upon by foreigners resi dent here, as very strange and irreconcilable with a due regard to the honor of their country, and makes me blush sometimes, and I feel mortified to think of it—that men, here in a free country, and protected by it, could entertain and utter such tory and unpat riotic sentiments as I have seen used in the Whig papers." What man, with an American soul in his body can rustain a party with such a reputation at home and abroad. A meeting to organise a free debating society, was held in Temperance Hall, last Thursday evening and the outline of a constitution wee read by A. J. Miller, which war referred to a committee, with in structions to report a constitution and Byelaws, to promote the object intended, on neat Thursday even ing at 71 o'clock. This is a new polemic; and we certainly wish success to every movement which guarantees freedom of thought and speech. On thissigdectthe New York Journal ofCommerce, of the 3d instant. says: "The personal estate or Mr. Astor is wroth from seven to nine millions of dollars, and his real estate perhaps as much more; so that the aggregate islet's than twenty millions, or half the sum we put down the other day. Faller sum is quite out of our small comprehension ; and we presume thatwith most men the idea of one million is just abutit as large an idea as that of any number of millions." QUITE nitro=ANT, xi Thos.—Mr. Broadmeadow h -a taken out a patent fur the application of steam to the extinguishing of firea. He thinks he can ex tinguish any fire which can possibly happen on board steamboats or any vessel where the apparatus is provided whether in the vessel or cargo, or in build ings uf any kind, by forcing steam into the apartment wlire_ the fire exists. One public experiment has been made in the presence of scientific gentlemen. and another is to be made on Tuesday, at 5 o'clock, at Wllliainsburgh. The' experiments have, so far, been successful; and if the thing is fully established fire may consider itself as effectually put out. The chief terrorof steamboating will be effectually sub dued, yet the thing is so very simple, that it is hard ly possible to believe so great a discovery should so lung have escaped the keen eyes of science.—Jour na/ of Commtree.

For the Morning Post. 7FIE INTERESTS OF PITTSBURGH. No. 3. Mr. HARPER : Onefact that has come under my observation goes very considerably to affect a most worthy class of our citizens, who have a large amount of capital in vested in their business. It is, that there ale men coming among es, perhaps three or four times a year, (either the agents of importers or eastern man ufacturing companies,) who bring with them samples of cloths, which they will contract to furnish at such prices as may be agreed upon—to be delivered at a future time named. These men wait upon our tail ors and others—cavoiding entirely, 1 believe, the merchants. who, perhaps, have made their purchases at the snipe establishments for which they are the a gents, at a higher price than they agree to furnish the articles fur)—and in many cases have made el tensive sales. Independently of the liability to im position, on the part of these agents, under such a system, I contend against the system itself; and I do so upon grounds involving the true policy for every community. Our merchants make their purchases with reference to the wants of the market. They buy in anticipation of selling to their fellow-citizens at an honest, living profit. They are obliged to pur chase, on their part, from the farmer, mechanic, &c. such things as they need. They pay- their State, county, and city taxes, for the support or our govern ment—for the privilege of living among us, and par ticipating in the advantages of the community,.hich they assist in supporting. These foreign emissaries I have no interest in our affairs, but the interest to be derived from their sales. They have no sympathies with our people—no concern for their prosperity; ro :nister in no particular to the wealth of the place; but, on the cc:Mutt:v. from the plan which they pur• sue, of c oming among us, as were by stealth, to take away our money, without aiding in siippi - .,7'irC our institutions, they actually, as far as tiansactiens with them are concerned, impoverish our city. . There is another fart which I will mention, only tc condemn the mistaken spirit which gives it exis tence. It is, that many of our more wealthy citi zens actually send to New York and Philadelphia fur a snit of clothes, a hat, or a pair of hoots, instead of paying the tailor, or hatter, or bootrnaker of Pitts burgh the same price, or perhaps a less price, for an article in every respect equal to that which they pro cure abroad. Now it cannot be said that our work men here, in these branches of business, are either incapable of doing, or that they do not, as neat and substantial work as those of any other place. To assert this is only to prove one's ignorance of work manship. I have examined and corn the workman ship of those who were recognised as the best work men of the eastern cities, and I have never seen a more neatly filing suit of clothes, or boots, nor a more finely finished hat, than I have seen in Pitts ' burgh. Indeed, it Is well known that some of tho.t; persons have had Pittsburg work imposed upon theM fur Philadelphia manufacture, only because they were feolish enough to think that better work could be done there than is done here. Now, every consideration that I have named in these communications, prompts to the entire discon7 tinuance of such practices as those I have alluded to. I merely enumerate some of the facts, which have come to my knowledge; but I have no doubt that many others might be elicited, of similar character, upon a more thorough inquiry among our mechanics and tradesmen. I mention them, in connexion is till the promises laid down, and the arguments 1 bate advanced, not merely to benefit the mechanics them selves, but fur the benefit of those who have adopted a policy so fatal to their own best interests. It is one altogether suicidal to the prosperity of any place; and although such a course can not be entirety de structive of the prosperity of our thriving city, yet its advancement is very materially retarded by it.— Let us realise as a fact (and all will find it so, if they shall but make the examination) that, as with our army in war, so with Pittsburgh in whatever her peo ple undertake "We can't be beaten, when we all pull together." , OBS ERV Elt. Removal of the Market-Rouse. Ma. HARPER :—Nnw that the subject is talked of, .permit me to make a suggestion as to a very suita ble site for the Market-House, should our citizens decide on a removal from the present bad location in the Diamond. The spot I propose is the ground bounded by Grant, Seventh, and Fountain streets; which can be made very eligible by 'throwing an arch overthe canal between the Tunnel and Seventh street, and at the same time the city can get rid of an intolerable nuisance. The space proposed will be large enough for the GREAT CErrrau. Mast:ET; and geographically it is about the centre of popula tion. The ground is now partially covered with buildings of little value, it being the lease-hold property of the O'Hara estate. If Mr. DENNY, with his proverbial liberality, would make a present of this ground to the city, for a Market-House, he would be an enormous gainer by the transaction, as he owns the property all around it.

LOCAL MATTERS.. 11011RIBLE, McbT HORRIBLE! —We were a witness to a most shocking scene yesterday ;. one that is a damning disgrace to huminity. In Thursday's pa per we noticed the fact, that a tioor Irish woman had just arrived in this city, in search of her two brothers. She had two or three children, and was entirely destitute—without health, friends, hope or money. Her husband died on the passage to this country, aii&left her family in this woful condition. Thursday, she heard that her brothers, John and Wm. Duncan, were in Cincinnati; and she at once got on board for that city. But in , the afternoon, the captain discovered thatone of the children, about ten years.of age, had the small pox, and he forthwith ordered her to be set ashore.. Wesaw her therein the afternoon; but not knowing that any thinewas Wrong, we took no notice of her. She sat beside a bed, in which lay her child, with insufficient cloth ing. And we are told that she remained there till 9 o'clock in the evening! Some one gave Mayor Adams information as to her situation—who imme diately, in company with officer Richardson, went to her relief. They could find no householder wil ling to take the little family in ; and as a last resort they were compelled to put her in the watch house, in the loathsome cells of which she remained till yesterday morning. The fact that there was not in the city a single institution intended fur the protec tion of human beings situated as was this poor wo man, was made apparent to the officers; who at last consigned her to a coal shed of the old water works. Here we have a specimen of civilization ; the re fined, exalted civilization of this continent. Crea tures endowed by God, with,all the impulses which 'bake humanity, are permitted to perish in the very midst of "heaps on heaps . of wealth." Sensitive women with babes in their arms, unstained with a single crime, arc degraded by consignment to prison cells and coal sheds! This all here in Pittsburgh, the city of Churches; the pity where missionary so. moles abound ; where religious tracts are daily dis tributed in great profusion,; where what is called Christianity is infused into every law, municipal reg ulation and social usage. But has this poor woman realized that Christianity in practice is what it is taught ! We think every instinct of her -soul will answer, no! MR. MCCLURG, Tilt AiIItNEUM AND Tilt BIG Hoc.—Mr, IH'Clurg called upon us on Thursday evening to, remonstrate against the use of his name in connection with, the arrival of the Big Hog freim Peoria. lie thinks the Atieneurn is a fine Hall, and he is certain it cost money ; and is, on these accounts, chary of its reputation. Now we protest that we had no intenlion of inju ring the Hall or its promictor. Mr. M'C. required of us some suitable apology ; and we appeal to him if this simple and positive declaration is not enough. The Big Hog is a great eurMsity in this community. People talked of his proporti ns, and many inquiries wore set afloat as to the pi-Pliability of his being ex hibited. Hogs have •frequ'ently been exhibited to admiring audiences; and avvays with profit to the owner. Now was it nut kited in us to make the sug gestion we c 111 1 That Porker should be not up for , nsuection, in the Athcneuin Hall, in order that the proprietor might realize seine of his golden dreams of profit. We thOught the Models a disgrace to the room on account of their bad characters. In relation to Porker we arc assured that be bears an irreproachable character in the neighborhood from which he came. He was. not addicted to vices of any kind, great or small. The oldest inhabitants are ready to certify to all this. But Mr. M'Clurg, being a small man, may object to Porker on account of his corpulency. This is polite. Why, the same objection might apply to sonic members of the government, Judges on the bench, city Aldermen, &c. According to our strin• lard, there is no disgrace in bearing about huge bones and muscles well covered with cellula rtissue. RICH AND FASHIONABLE Goons.—Absalom Mor ns, at No. 65, Market street, has just opened a large 'Wand splendid stock of rich and fashionable goods.— assoriment comprises every variety and style imaginable. The summer dress goods for ladies in particular, are what Shelley would call "beautiful exceedingly." The silks, clothe, prints, &c., are also very superb. Ladies who have not yet pur -1 chased their summer supply, will, of course, give Mr. Morris a call. QTARTER SESSlONS.—Yiesterday the case of CO/71. on James and Robert Frdnklin, and Robert Lytle, wan given to the Jury, Who returned a verdict of not guilty, and county pay the costs. In the afternoon a garribling case was taken dp, the moral of which seemed to be, that people from the Allegheny country should pick their company, when they arrive in the city. We did not hear the result. DESERTER. CAticirr.—A man in Uncle Sams Blue was ssen on the wharf, and from his appearance and conduct, suspicionapere entertained that he was a deserter from the army. H is person and fixings were examined, and he was found to answer the description given of him in the Police Gazette. He had received two dollar l frorri l the Guardians of the Poor, which he spent for ;liquor, instead of travelling off on his way home. The Mayor sent him up for further hearing. For the Morning Poll. EXTRAORDINARY PREDOCITY.-WO have seen a child about two years of 'age, a little girl, belonging to one of tho most respolctable families of Alleghe• ny city, who can read the simple matter of school books with the most astonishing fluency.

' T he steamer Washington has arrived at New York, bringing news from Europe till the 00th. There was to be a monster meeting in Dublin , on the 20th March. The English government had be come alarmed, and was sending troops in to put it down. England, France and Scotland, have become rath er quiet. The Provisional Government .of France has organized a large force, for the purpose,it is supposed, of invading Austria. The Revolution in Vienna, resulted in'the Emper or granting everything the people desired. Hungary has declared itself independent of Aus tria. The Emperor of Ressia is supposed to be dead. The Bank of France has been suspended. The local Banks that have been established, have failed to give relief; consequently there have been some heavy failures.. The Provisional Government of France has been recognized by European Government generally. English Funds are mostly unaltered. The Cotton market had slightly improved. The same may he said of the Corn market. The Bank of France has been authoriied to' issue one hundred dollar franc notes; which are made legal tender, and which has given great satisfaction. Outbreaks are much feared, in consevnence of the misery attending the working classes, which daily increase.
