The foregoing dates of the establishment of the several foundries and furnaces mentioned, will en tirely dissipate all the cant and humbug about 'Ruth , of the trade in this section of Pennsylvania. There are numerous other iron furnaCes in the a bove counties, which I have heard of; but not having visited them, I confine my remarks to such as I have a knowledge of: At the establishment of McKee and Harris, near to Franklin, in Venango county, I had an interview with a certain Mr. Jeremiah Roney, who appeared to ben manager of much intelligence. or him I en deavored to obtain some information as to the profits of that branch ofbusiness. On asking him what was the probable expense of manufacturing a ton of pig mail, (which dew commands in market about thirty fivdollars, he very properly inquired whether I was about to embark in the business; to which I re plied in the negative. "Well, then," said be, "are you a .whig or federalist?" And on answering I WWI , not, "Then," said he, are you in favor of Jaws Buchanan for the presidency?" "That I am," said I; "and none other." "Give me your paw," said he; "I am your man, and you shad have all the informa tion I can furnish. In the manufacture of pig metal, the expenses are proportioned to the quality of the ore; but in view of the general character of the metal found in and about Venango and Clarion coun ties, a good quality of metal can be manufactured at a price not eneeding Mon dollars a ton. Now you see (said Mr. Roney) that a profit of twenty dol lars a ton on pig metal, is just the thing the demo crats have done by adminiotering the government; and if we have James Buchanan fur the next Presi dent, (said my friend Mr. Roney,) we shall continue to enjoy prosperity in our iron section of country. Besides, (he added,) I admire Mr. Buchanan because he goes his death against abolition? , The fanatical doctrines of abolition, amalgamation, disunion, find no favor in West Pennsylvania. While on the subject of the iron trade, let me mention that I have had an opportunity to witness a larb4 shipment of castings and mill machinery, made by Mcliendry & Eichbaum, of Allegheny county, for the 'Bennessee Manufacturing Company, at Lebanon, near to Nashville. Will the President not admon ish hils old neighbors about the promised federal "ant '" to domestic industry, under the operation of the tariff of 1846 _ - We reirn (says the Washington Union,) that the receipts into the treasury from customs . , notwith standing the convulsions in Europe, continue to equal the most sanguine expectations of the friends of the tariff of 1846 ; the receipts for May, so far as returns have been received at the department, show ing an increase over the corresponding period of last year. The following will prove with what sound. nen the calculations of Secretary Walker ware made, the result as fully sustaining him as it com pletely demolishes the prophecies of the Whig lead ers, uttered while the present tariff was under dis cussion in the Senate and after its enactment into a aw: Estimate of the Secretary Received during three quarters of fiscal ycai l ending March 31 25,868,503 07 Received d ring the month of April 2,450,000 00 Received d ring the month of May, thualar, a 1,053,954 55 The amount for May embrace! the receipts at eight ports for thirteen days, and four extreme south ern ports for six days only; leaving the entire month of June and the greater part of May wherewith to ■well the amount, which will probably reach at least $32,000,000 fur the fiscal year ending 30th of June. The Washington Union of the 20th instant con. tains the instructions of the War Department to Commodore PERRY, in relation to the state of affairs in Yucatan. From these letters it appears that the President has given authority to Commodore C. to give to the People of that country all the protection that may be in his power, by carefully guarding the coast,permiting the landing of ammunition &c., and affording to them all other necessary assistance that can be given them by our Navy. The degree of protection which will thus be given to the white population of Yucatan, though very trifling, may, notwithstanding, prove of great ser= vice to them; and will place our government and People in a favorable position there. It may, and no doubt will, bo the means of preserving the lives of many, who would otherwise fall victims to the sav ages, for - whom the sympathies of a portion of the People of thls century are now go feelingly awakened; and, should Congress confer•upon the President the additional authority asked for, there is no doubt that mod' good will eventually result to our country. • CLoss.

Ai welave often heretofore said, we rely only up on facts, or arguments plainly and unequivocally de ducible from facts, in order to secure political suc cess, which sometimes is secured by deception : int we are sure that a just and tremendous retribution must await the imposter and deceiver, whether in politics, religion, 6r any other matter. Let the edi tors of the Gazette turn to their article of the first of April and compare it with this Letter: ,THE TARIFF OF 1846. To the Editor of the Union: Prrristracx ' (Pa.,) May 12,1848. DEAR Sin: With the freedom of a friend, I take leave, in respectful terms, to give you a narrative of facts, derived from personal observation, in relation to the RUIN" of the iron manufacture or Penn sylvania, premised by the federal party as the inevi table result or the tariff of 1846. Within the last four week a, I have travelled through part of the western district of Warren, Clariun, Ve naego, Mercer, Beaver, and Butler, for the purpose ofliquidating tax claims on unseated lands, in which I have an interest. Incidents connected with-the iron trade of those counties I have availed myself of, in order to do justice to the eminent ability of Mr. Secretary Walker, the sponsor for the wisdom of the tariff policy of the presenradministration. It is an indisputable truth, that well established facts bearing upon any particular position of nation al policy, will counterpoise the declamation of the special pleader, how plausible soever his arguments may be against the facts exhibited. Take a strong case in Point: The tariff of 1846, according to fed eml logic, was to call down upon the head of Mr. Secretary Walker the execrations-to be found in the vocabulary of the "flagitious" Senator Davis. Well, the tariff of 1846 works "Runt" in the northwest counties of this State after a novel manner. The 'lion trade in rheabove'counties is most prosperous; the prices of pig metal` are high—unusually so, at this time; additional manufacturing estabishments are springing into life; the relative interests of man ufactures, agriculture and commerce were never in a more flourishing condition. But the "aria" pro mised by the federal party, to alarm the fears of Pennsylvania on a subject of vital importance to her prosperity, is characteristic of the party, "that rises as the country sinks, sinks as the country rises."— Let facts determine in this case. The subjoined statement will show the effects of the tariff of 18-16 in West Pennsylvania : Iron factories. Counties. Dale ( 2/ Ettab/iThrum t.

Eighty-three new publications have been issued during the year, amounting to about 10,000 pages 'of new reading matter.'-The total value of the publications distributed in the year is sl23,B73—being a much larger amount than has been ever before circulated. The amount ex pended in supporting colporteura and donations of books and tracts, has been $BOl7 more than the receipts for these purposes. VENEZ It appears certain that the force of Gen. Pinango, collected chiefly in Maricaibo, was defeated on the 6th alt at Coro, by the troops under. President Mon agas, and that Pinango himselfwas mortally wound ed. The loss of the revolutionists, or anti-government party, was about:l6o, while that of Monagas is sta ted at 300. Congress has ordered an issue of $5,000,000 of paper, which the law compels all to receive in pay ment for debt, or to be debarred from suing in the courts in case of refusal. Take it all in all, the po ; litical condition of Venezuela is very bad. There can be no permanent peace while Menages is at the hemil of the Government, and while Congress acts under the continual fear of an invasion liom an arm ed mob. The massacre of Congressmen, which give rise to the present revolutionary attempt, was near being repeated on the 18th ult , in consequence of a proposition having been introduced for a general amnesty. The mob invaded the halls of Congress, and were only pacified by an assurance that the sub ject should be drropped. The defeat of Pinango will have a paralyzing effect upon the revolutionary party fora time, but it is the opinion of many intelli gent men that they will ultimately triumph. Paez himself is a host, and so long as he remains in the field, Monagas cannot consider himself safe for a moment.—Journal of Commerce May 17. The , Peoce Prospect. The Washington Union discredits the statement in the Baltimore Argus, of letters having been ro• ceived in Washington from Mr. Sevier, abandoning hope of a ratification of the treaty by the Mexican government. It adds:— '• We understand that no official letters have been recently received from our commissioners, and we can hear of no private letter that has been receiv ed from Col. Sevier. The last accounts from Mex ico are more favorable for peace." The New York Journal of Commerce says:— Letters from Mexico to 25th of April, from a high source, express the expectation that the treaty will be ratified." Postal Negotiations. The Washington correpondent of the Baltimore Sun says:— "The son of Mr Cunard, the proprie tor of the line of steamers bearing that name, and Mr. Merritt, of the Canadian Parliament, are now here, in an unofficial capacity to be sure, but official ly engaged in bringing Canada and the United States somewhat nearer together. They wish for a postal arrangement between Canada and the States, and a more liberal exchange of produce. We are glad that those gentlemen have come to Washington, though it is not here, but in England that the diffi culties lie, which have to be tea:Loved before the consummation of their wishes."

WILLARD'S ANTI-BILIOUS ADD LIVER PILLS AGAINST Tina Wont - Di—The daily and weekly papers of the day are filled with long and labored advertisements, some professing to cure Mrs thing and others that thing, but many of theni prqfessing to cure every thing. This ' doctrine does not, however generally receive much fa vor: et some have supposed that a medicine existed that 'would cure all kinds of diseases; some mysterious and genendly unknown principle in the medical kingdom, Which would dig out the very root of diseases. This however is not the case, and nothing can be more absurd than to suppose Butt it is so; such a thing never existed save in the imagination of the manufacturer of some “Elixir of Life," - Universal Panneea,""lndshm of Life," or something of this kind. Each class of diseases has its proper remedy and is so arranged by nature. For Liver and Billions complaints we have no account 'of anything surpassing Dr. 'Willard's Anti-Billion and Liver Pills.

We taw the clothing of one lad in the Mayor'. office— there were shirts, pants, socks, vest, coat, &c. How the poor fello - w managed we should like to know. It was not the intention of the officer to take the clothing. without the body being in them, but the latter was missing, and if the duds had been left on the wharf, they might have been stolen. They are now safe in the Maya's office, where the owner can have them by calling. The Object of this seeming severity is to break up the practice of Sunday bathing—which should be done. But, if the city fathers wish to succeed to the full extent in their :laudable efforts to preserve in all their pristine purity the morals of the people, they should establish free bathe in all parts of the city. ThittWould do more good than snatching clothes. METHODIST CONFERENCE: The proceedings of this body have not been important for the past few days. The great and exciting questions will proba bly be put off till all the smeller affairs of the church are completed. We noticed that ,the southern dela gates are still here, waling the action of the Confer ence upon the Property question. While in yesterday a German preacher was speak ing in tones of great eloquence and warmth. It ap peared that the committee on Missions had reported something in relation to the establishment of a Ger man Conference, which project he very strenuously opposed. His remarks in relation to the Germans of this country and to the spread of Methodism in faderland were truly interesting. The whole 'con ference seeined to sympathise with him in all his ut terances. THEATHE.—The great tragedy of Jack Cade, writ ten by Judge Conrad, will be presented to-night. .Whether the character of Cade, as represented in the play, be a truthful delineation or not, makes but little difference; the merit of the piece is in its set ting forth the condition oe the people of England in olden time, and the incentives to rebellion which existed_ The reformer will be benefitted brbfr. FerreiN performance to-night. It is a part in whiclihe can enter with the enthusiasm which is pe culiar to him, when wholcsothe lessons in political and social sciences are to be inculcated. The piece is not without its scenic beauties, and those who care only for plot and show may also be gratified. We arc invaded by another gang of catgut scra ping Dutch who are making "the night hideous" up Liberty Street. There are some 19 or 20 of stout able bodied fellows as well able to work as any hand on the canal, and this pressing on the public in gangs is but another species of the common street begging with " briefs " so common to meet with. —We find the above in the American of yester day. We studied the columns of that paper for the advertisement of the Steyermarkische company, but failed to find it. This accounts for the brutality of she assault. Grte.sr Row..—Last evening, about 10 o'clock, a disgraceful row occurred in Hog alley, oppillite our Mike. Some firemen turned out to wash out a ne gro ball room. An engine was placed before the door, and in shot the water and out shot the dancers. The watchmen interfered but were quickly driven back. The interior of the house was destroyed, and one of the inmates was badly abuied. We understand that the object of the row was to revenge an attack that was made upon a white man who visited the ball room on Saturday night. SW We came near getung.into a scrape yesterday on account of our jury squib. We'll be careful the nest time. —The American was quite savage on the subjec t yesterday, and all beeause we forgot to mention that its editor was on the same jury. We deserve a lashing for this, and we take the castigation as mer ited, even - thankful for the favor, USITED STATES' CIRCUIT Covar.-10 the ease of 'Downy vs Arnold, the Jury brought in a verdict for the defendant, after an absence of about ..a . tphour and a half. We understand that Judge Grier'cblirgt ed strongly in favor of the defendant. The argu ments of counsel were great efforts. sap There was a disgraceful row in Third street on Sunday afternoon. Two men quarrelled about some trifling thing, °recourse, (for all quarrels origi nate about trilles,) when one ■truck at the other, missed, fell on the pavement and smashed his face. He was served right. Ths Police took possession of him, and after finding out the particulars let bim off„ we believe. tar Some time during the week, we intend to make an estimate of the number of Whig upirants for office. It will be a long job, and a long list of names will be the result of its completion. Truly the Whigs arc a patriotic people, in one sense of the term at least. Dattsecri Wont:v.—A Police officer reports that he has seen more drunken women since Saturday than he ever before saw in a month! Is not this die couraging. If there was any use in talking or writ ing against it, we might say more, but for the present it is simply necessary to notice the fact. $ some of the Pittsburgh merchants, who re ceive a large share of canal boat custom, hare re moved branches to. Freeport, and will continue to do badness both there and here, until the Aqueduct can be rebuilt. Sar The destitute young girl, noticed yesterday, was taken care of, by officer Boston, who took her to his house for protection during the night, and yes terday morning means were raised to send her to her friends. The Allegheny wharf presents quite a business aspect. It is lined with boats of all kinds, as well a s rafts. The business of the canal is now nearly all transacted on this wharf. *Jr Hammes Travelling American Museum, we learn will exhibit in this City on Thursday evening next. It is said to be a splendid affair. !ice' A singular apparatus was seen floating down the Allegheny river yesterday. It presented the ap pearance of a tool chest, and had a carpet bag tied to its top. Some person has been unfortunate. Ildr We notice that Rev. Edward Smith is now in the city, probably 'on business connected with the session of the Methodist Conference.
