Now; withal] due defeienee,to the opinion SiCithers itstrilies us that this movement is unjust, - ' unnecesary, illegal and anti. republican. Why the Chiantis - of Allegheny county should be irked to Mold the Central Railroad, more than any other itailre;ad, is a problem we would like to hear solved. :There are other Railroad projects spoken of; in re lotion to which a large portion of people of this i coolay s are quite as deeply interested as they are in the Central Railroad. But this i• not ourdeading oldrction to this move ment.. In the first place, we think the measure is 'illegal; because there is nothing in the charter of 'Oe.ciimpany, or the acts amendatory thereto, or any lime otthe State, authorising such a matter. It is beeause it would be imposing a tai on men --who would probably derive no corresponding benefit itberefrom. - It.

Guthrie, John Harper, John J. Mitchel, Semi. Snowden, Wm. E. Austin, Thomas Williams. William B. McClure. The Committee retired for a abort time and dur ing, their absence the meeting was Nth:fly addressed by Mr. Bowman. The remarks of this gentleman were eloquent and appropriate, and were frequent. ly applauded. Before concluding his remark., Mr. H. gave way to the Committee on Resolutions. The following resolutions were reported by thir Commnuttee, through their Chairman, Janes S. Craft, Esq. Resolved, That all men being born free and equal, it follows, as clearly as light radiates from the sun, that any auumption of individual superiority, by which one man or set of men claim the right to domineer over their compeeni or associates, a ar rogant, baseless and absurd. Resolved, That revelling in the enjoyment of liberty of thought, speech, and action, ourselves, I we desire to extend those blessing. wherever the sun rises or sets, and therefore while we hail with delight the resumption of their rights by the people of France, we scorn to libel our own experience by denying to them the capacity of self-goes-rnment. Resolved, That we cherish the hope that popula power will continue in its progress to crush th tot tering throne, of tyrants, until not only all Europe, but the entire breadth of God's creation, shall be come an association of republics, in which the Crea toes image shall be no longer trampled upon by his own likeness; and Equality, Liberty and Fraternity, animate, enliven and bind together an united ,aorld. Resolved, That the prompt recognition or the French Republic by our Minister in that nation,and the decided and manly approval of his coarse by the President of the United States, meet. with the cordial countenance of the citizens of this country. The American people return the fraternal grasp of the French nation. Resolved, That regenerated, republican France, in abolishing the Draconian penal code for political offences, has placed herself' in the foremost ranks of enlightened civilization. She has made the ha mane sentiment of LA FaserrE a principle and a Law, by expunging from her manta hooka the bloody , relics of those barbarous ages when revenge was hallowed as a -virtue. The following resolutions were also reported by the Committee, through Andrew Burke, Esq. Resolved, That we do most heartily congratulate the citizens of the French Republic, on the great and glorious revolution they have effected for them selves ;—a revolution, which, in subverting a dea- I 1 punt throne, and terminating forever within the urn its of France, monarchy, and privileged classes, and titled orders, has vindicated and proclaimed the great principles of rational freedom, of human rights and arrows equality. Resolved, That we perceive in that mighty event, an impulse given to the cause of liberty throughout the world ; and read in it the lesson, previousl taught by aur own ever glorious Revolution, to ti e down trodden and oppressed of every nation that the spirit of freedom is indistructitde, and that against the fired and resolute will of a people de termined to be free, despotism is powerless, and battlements and battenes and bayonet. are of no avail. . Resohyd, That the citizen hems of the "Barri cades," by their valor in the fight, by their modera tion in the victory, and above all, by the glorious and ennobling object they have accomplished, have acquired for themselves the world's admiration ; and have won a loftier renown, a brighter glory, a purer fame, even than their illustrious fathers did -at Marengo, or Austerlitz, or Gene. Resolved, That it is with obvious and peculiar pro priety, that the countrymen of Wasutriazort, one and all, seize on the resent gratifying and glorious occasion, to tender to the countrymen or LATAT- Errx, their heart-felt sympathy, their enthusiastic admiration, and their warmest congratulations, and to welcome into the ranks of liberty, and into the sisterhood-of Republics, their ancient ally, their ear liest friend. Me. DVIINE, having read to the meeting, the Be solutions which the Committee reported through him, was !oddly called upon to address the meeting. We regret that we areable to present but a very meagre and imperfect abstract of his remarks. He said he had not intended to address the meet ing; but he could not refuse compliance with such a call as had jest been made on him. The occasion on which they.had assembled, was ode which would rouse and animate the most lethargic, and cause the stagnant blood of age to rush bubbling through the distended veins. Twice before had the gallant people of France, arrested the sceptre from the hands of despots, and shivered into atoms the thrones on which they sat. It would be, here, unnecessary to investi gate, and tedious to detail, the causes which preven vented France from permanently enjoying the fruits of her previous v.ctoriea,in whleh freedom had tri umphed over tyranny. The causes are now appar ent to every observant and reflecting mind ; and they constitute a beacon in the promontory of the world's shore, at once to warn and to guide the people of other nations, that are anxiously looking for, and ardently lunging Idler liberty. But now, again, for the third time, within a little more than half a cen tury, France has attracted, the admiring eye of en astonished world. Her heroic people, yielding to the dictates of their inextinguishable instinct for free dom, have again risen in their might, proclaiming, ." liberty, e fl ualit Ylfraternillir" and onto more, sceptre,•and throne, and dynasty, and titled orders, have vanished and disappeared from before them, and coward despotism, h fled, trembling and howl ing from their shores. And we are now permitted to indulge the confident hope, that the people of France, rendered prudent by experience, and wise by. reflection, will, on this occasion, establish the freedom they have asserted with such intelligence, and acquired with 'such gallantry, on foundations so secure' and l o permanent,.aa„ forever to bid defiance to invasion from at tome or abroad. Mr. B, said it was impossible to contemplate the recent,reyolution in France, without blended as tonishment and admiration. Louis Philippe bed surrounded :hitosell: With stipend Ons fortifiaatiop.

FR/WE & LIBERTY - The citizens of the cities of Pittsburgh and Alle gheny, are requested to meet at the Old Court House, on Saturday evening, it 809 clockiiiir the purpose of expressing their sympathies for the French people, in their revolutionary movement to overthrow mon archy, and secure for themselves a Republican form of Governmept. It is the right, as well is the duty of the Amer.i can people, to give countenance and eticourigement to an oppressed people, struggling for their liberty. Let us meet, as we should like brothers, in a good and noble cause. - ----- MEETING FOR FRANCE Tremendous Outpouring of the People: In obedience to the above call, a very large and enthu.tastic meeting was held at the old Court ROUST, on Saturday evening, April Sib, ISaB. The room was literally jamed with - men of all parties. The meeting n as convened for the purpose of responding to the glorious revolution in France, which resulted in the overthrow of Monarchy and Tyranny, and the ' establishment in emir stead of a Republican form of Government, based upon Liberty, Equality and Fra ternity.

And al ready has the contagion 'of that example been caught : already have those auguries given confi dence and hope,—and animated to like emprises. Hungary anti Bavaria hive declared their independ ence ; the Icing of Austria has'been compelled to yield to their:lid demands of the people ; through out all Ger Many and Italy the people are awaken ing to the knowledge of their power, and are fash ioning the Means for enforcing it; and in Ireland, poor down-trodden, long oppressed Ireland, an .electric effect:teems to have been produced,—and armed troops and vessels of war are vainly sent to suppress the expression of popular opinion. When such is the glorious revolution that France has effected, and such the influence of her bright example, how peculiarly proper it is that America, the Cdest daughter of freedom, should -be the first to send forth her loud congratulations and her heart felt spmpathies.

Dzaa Sr.:—! understand that some of the lead. lug, or would be leading whigs of your County, have attacked the doings of the Board of Revenue Com missioners' without awaiting your return aZrequest ed. lam desirous of seeing , all they have to say on the subject, and will thank you to forward me their notices. Of one thing I am' very confident-- if any injustice has been done to Allegheny County, the fault rests not with, you but others, whom it is not the policy ofthe whiga to expect. You did eve ry thing in your power, and I am free to say, if it had not been for your indefatigable exertions in the Board, the County of Allegheny would have been raised considerably higher.' I can show that injua• tree would not have been done her if two millions more had been put on her. Allegheny County has no reason to complain, either of the Board or her Commissioner in the Board. Very reipectfully, yours, JAMES C. MARSHALL. JAI/U S. CLtTT, Esq. Central Ilan Road. The following Preamble and. Resolutions , were adopted, at a special meeting of the Board of Trade Association, on Thursday, the 6th instant. Wntasaa, Unparalleled exertions are now mak ing by neighboring States, to divert to other routes the traffic and commerce of the Ohin, , and its tributariet, which has in so eminent a degree pro moted the welfare of this County, and the pros perity of the whole. Commonwealth. Whereas, The provisions of the late supplement to the Charter of the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company, afraid important facilities for a subscrip tion to its stock by the county of Allegheny, by means of which the people would be in a great measure relieved front the Interest on the loan required to meet such subscription, and other ad vantages would be secured. Whereas, Satisfactory assurances have been sir. en by the officers of said company, that a subscrp tine of a million of dollars from this County would, in addition to an equal sum to be advanced by the City of Philadelphia, be entirely expended on the Western Section of the line, and would insure the speedy completion of this great work, by which the construction of a Railroad from this place through the State of Ohio under the liberal char ter recently &meted by that ' State, would be ren dered absolutely certain. Therefore, be it Resolred, That in the opinion of this meeting it is highly deitrable that the County of Allegheny should make a liberal subscription to the Stock of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. Resolved, That s committee of five members be appointed, whose duty it shall be to confer with the County Commis:inner', and devise the most efficient means of ascertaining the opinion of the citizens or the County, in relation to such a sub-, scription, and report to .a meeting to be held at this place en Thursday next, at 7, P. M. The aesaciation apsointed Messrs. T. Bakewell, T. J. Bighorn, Jesse Carothers, W. J. Totten, and Joseph Pentioek, that Committee. Eor tee Morning Pass. A new Blarket House. Mk. Enron —.The inquiry of " Heavy Baskets " In your paper of Thursday, is a very natant one, and is one in which our workingmen, and the wives of lour industrious mechanics are deeply interested: Time was when the D.amond Market was corMidered the centre of interest every market day. But note• our increased and rapidly increasing population, in the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth wards, imperiously demand a more central location for a Market House. "•Market Street" asks "Heavy Bas ket" this morning, "where will the citizens obtain a better locationt" Permit me to point out theplace best suited, all things considered, and the one des- tiny has marked for the !Teti!!! purpose. A public square with " umbrageous trees," M considered by come as too great a treat for our workingmen to en joy, and the "Inns of Court" project is deemed by others as too aristocratic to be allowed. I think the Old Basin Lot as nix PLACE. Although not exactly central, yet its proximity to the business part of the city, Court House, and to the leading avenues;seema to be the must desirable point that can be obtained. PENNSYLYAntA Avitsuz. April 7, 1848 Banking In the United States. From the Benser , o blagazine fur February, we learn the amount of Bank capital in the United States, as the following table will show:— Total number of Banks, 798 Capital, Circulation, $209,831,000 Specie, $ 12 5,333,000 • ,270,000 The States of Illinois, Missisiippi, lowa, Florida, and Arkansas, are without Banks. It would be an extremely useful study if one could give the exact difference between the state of tho country in IMO, if there had never been . a bank chartered, and the actual condition at that time.— Irma are 798 Banks, representing one hundred and twenty-five and oneluarter millions of dollars of the circulating medium of the country. Supposing they have a trifle more than half, or five-eighths of specie, and that specie alone should be the exact basis of the paper money, we haze $80,000,000 in specie. Adding the portion not in the vaults of the Banks, $30,730,000, to their paper circulation, and :we have an agrcgate of about $155,000,000 for' the exchange of products and estate. If we had no chartered paper issues, our stock of .specie would be much larger, doubtless; say, $lOO,- 000,000. Here, then, is a dilution of 55 per cent, of specie by paper, and the price of every thing is enhanced a like per cent, by thisinflating. All our tax bills are estimated upon it; our expenses are rated by it; our debts aro totalized under it; our national wealth is thus exaggerated, and our very worst of political vices, national extravagance, is thus distorted in the eyes of the world, because our diluted currency gives a false price to every thing. If we contract a debt fur property when the circula tion is redundant, en a period of three years, and a crisis occurs when the debt matures, we have•the same property on hand which is thus rated at a ape cis price, and with but $3500 we are compelled to pay $4500. 'Whys Because our debt expresses epecie dollars, and our land was rated . by specie and But this is not the worst view of it. The dilution of currency increases the:price to an artificial stan dard, and tariff.laws, heretofore amounting to a pro hibition, are thus surmounted, and foreign goodaare imported, sold at auction, and the.proceeda carried out of the country in coin, because the artificial pri. ces of paper merle, had already closed our foreign markets by rendering tariff restrictions necessary at home. This importation from abrod goes on until the stock of specie runs low, the Bankeget frighten. ed, a contraction annum', Banks fail, pricer recede, bankruptcy follows, and a complete financial dean lation prevades the nation so reci3ritly the busy mart of mechanism,epeculailon, agriculture, and ex change. These are the evils of Banking; the bene fits must be enumerated before-we can weigh them. • • Boston Investigator. Reduction of Wll4Oll.

CITIZENII:—The thunder -notes of -yoini victory have sounded across the Channel, awaken ing the sympathies and hopes of every lover-of lib erty. -We hasteu.to express to you our congratulir= tions, and to thank low for the glorious service you have rendered to the human race. By your courage and magnanimity, your heroism and devotion to principle, - yon have consecrated the sacred right of insurrection; the last resource of the oppressed--the hat argument against oppression. Yon have hurled from power a cruel, corrupt, and tyrannical government; you have punished a perfidi ous king for hie blank treason to the pinciples which. he pretended to adopt when planed at the held of the'French nation in lt30; You have exhibited a spectacle of unparalleled heroism, and thereby set an example to all the enslaved nations of the earth. Honor to.those noble soldier's who refused to turn their arms against the people! All -honor to the troops of the National Guard who so gloriously fra ternised with the defenders of Liberty! The fire that consumed the throne of the royal. traitor and tyrant will kindle the torch of liberty in every -country in Europe. As magnanimous In victory as heroic in combat, you have exhibited in the moment of triumph a spirit of clemency altogether unmerited by the miscreants who conspired to drown your liberties in a sea of blood; hut mercy, undeserved by the vanquished, re-. fiecta the more honor on the victor. But duty.to yourselves, your children, and man kind, will- demand the pitiless punishment of can spirators, or pretenders, whether belonging , to the now fallen despotism, or calling themselves "Legit imist," or "Imperialisy• who may attempt to gratify their ambition at the expense of your liberties. Jus tice also dictatesthat the dependent relation, of the fallen patriots, and the wounded, should have pecu niary compensation from the confiscated property of those enemies of the people whose lives you have magnanimously spared. It is not for us, Citizens, to presume to advise you, but you will perthit us to ex press our hopes as to the, course you will pursue to encore your victory, and consolidate your. hard-won liberties. We hope:-- That the people of France will unite with you, in decreeing the eternal abolition -of Monarchy, and the institution or a Republic. That the French Republic shall be based upon the equal sovereignty of the entire people, guaranteed by a compact which shall include the two all import ant principles of the Constibition Hr 1793: —Univer sal Suffrage in the choice of the Legislative Depu ties, and the adoption of the laws by the direct vote of the people in the primary isiemblies. The right of all citizens to poirsep arms; the elig. ibility of all to serve in the National Guard; the right of public' meeting and association, and complete freedom of the Press. And the penalties of high treason to be enforced against all who may dare pro pose an infringement of any of the above fundamen tal rights of man and of the citizen. pre sublime acts of the Provisional Government in its first days of power-have already impressed ns with the conviction,that our hopes for your Welfare and glory will be completely realised. If'your glor ious chiefs persevere in the course They hare com menced, they will Win for themselves immortal fame., and for their country the conquest of the hearts of the people of every land. Should kings and oppressive governments; un mindful of the lessons 'of the past, dare again to teatime against France, and make war upon your; lib erties assure yourselves, citizens, that the nations will not, this time, follow the banners of their ty rants. No! they will march on your side, for your cause is theirs. You are the advanced guard of Freedom's army, and we can assure you that the British people will never sanction a fratricidal war against their brethren of France. Accept our fraternal salutations, and our earnest wishes that the French Republic may triumph over all its enemies, and become a model for the imita tion of the world. "Vire la Republique."

Quite a bar of lawyers was engagedt—Magraw for Commonwealth; Darragh for Foy, Shafer for Wilson, Mahon for Lutz, and Marshall for Evans. The prosecuting witness was Mr. Noble, who kept a tavern on the Brownsville road, at which the above defendants took supper, one evening last winter, while on a sleighing excursion. The pock et book and papers, were taken from his coat while the party were at his house. A girl named Don aldson, was next called, who testiSed that she was with the defendants in the' sleigh; and while on their way home. Foy asked Evans for a match ; which Evans gave him. A light was struck, and the pocket book opened and examined. When on the bridge the pocket book was thrown "away. The counsel for Wilson called Mary Murphy, and the counsel for Lutz called Mary Lynn. Both these girls were in the sleigh. Their testimony was rath er favorable to all the defendants, except Foy. Witnesses wore called to prove the good character of Wilson and Evans. Mr. Mahon moved' that Wilson be discharged, as there was not sufficient evidence to convict him, and he was an important witness for Lutz. Mr. Marshall. hoped that his client might also be passed upon by the Jury ; Mr. Darragh objected. The Prosecuting attorney believed there was not suffici: ant evidence to convict Wilson, and he therefore would not urge the jury to bring in a verdict of guilty. The Court was willing that the matter should be lea for the decision of the Jury. Some of the Jurors exhibited sympathies of an unwillingness to . pass upon the defendants separately; the matter was dropped, and Mr. Mahon went on with his de fence. Mr. Darragh followed", and Mr. Marshall concluded on the partof the Defendants. Mr. Sha- J. ler declined making any address, as the Prosecution p had conceded the innocence of his client. ae firemen cannot ccroplain of the ope rations on Saturday night, if they .desire brisknou in their Vocation. rhere were three fires, and strange as it may seem; all originated in stables. It is suggested that the whole was cauied by incen diarism. We do not know how this • may be; but we are auured that one stable was set on fire ; and we are told, that the man who did it is known, and was seen in the act. The first fire occurred about 11 o'clock, in a stable bank of Bell's note!, Liberty street, in which there Were three horses belonging to Clarke & Thaw, all burned. The second fire occurred immediately after—say about midnight. A stable near Seventh street, at the mouth of the Tunnel, was burned. A horse and cow were in the stable ; but were saved. It is said that this was caused by incendiarism. The third fire was a stable on,fenn street, near Irwin, in which were two 'or three horses. Stable and horses were all burned. --: Reinc — iii -- ; — .4‘1. ------------ -- , ------ - To would respectfully inform the mcr. la. chant,,,oliA city and our customers generally, tha t w e hav e eemved our stock of Shirts and GentsTur lashing Goot.lo the corner of Filth and Market streets, !history over ;rites P.
