"No, sir, I have not; and I think - it would be
useless. I was careless of health when I had it;
now it's gone, :I fear, never to return."
" Would it not be advantageous for you to pass
out into the air, Mr. Orton ?"
"Perhaps - it would, Mr. Harcout. I breathe
with much difficulty when in a confined room."
" Take my arm, Mr: Orton, and I will assist you
to the deck."
Frank Ortorytook the offeied arm, and the gen
tletnen ascended to the deck, where they sat until
the boat -backed out from Cincinnati and set out
for Pittsburgh. It was late in the evening, and as
they imagined, near teatime, when they arose for
.the purpose of returning to the cabin. On arriving
below, they found the table filling up. The ladies
were isining from their department and taking
seats. The gentlemen were standing along either
side of the table, awaiting the signal to be seated.
Altai tea, which is a very unsociable and.,er
tremely, selfish exercise on board a steamboat,—
Henry Harcout lighted a cigar and went on deck.
H e ,had _barely finished his smoking, when several
lollies and gentlemen came• clambering up the
wheel -house. Among these he noticed his friend
Ortou, with his lovely sister. This was a moment -
of much confusion to our hero.. He was anxious
for an introduction to his fair enchantress, and he
felt certain that he would get one from the brother,
'would he_ 'approach. But he disliked to intrude
upon, them, and determined to await an opportunity
' which would not require any effort on his part.—
Tuining away 'to the fore part of the boat, he
viewed the hillsand farms- as they'rolled by.—
Whlle thus engaged, he felt a gentle tap on his
shoulder; on looking around he saw Frank Orlon.
" Excuseme, Mr Harcont," said Frank, bowing
" for interrupting you, but I thought, perhaps, you
would have no objection to enjoying this cool and
_refre.shing air, and this , enchanting scenery with
my sister. You are aware that tug health forbids
my staying 'longer out of doors; and my sister is
so delighted, that I cannot think of taking her be
lovi. Will you be introduced, Mr. Harcout?"
"With'the, greatest pleasure, Mr. Orton. I
would much like to'have youisister's acquaintance
"t4td company."
Soon the ceremonyofintroduetion was perform
ed, and Kate. Orton and Harry Harcout alone.—
The evening was fileasant—nay, it was more—it
was enchanting, and the atmosphere was mild and
- balmy Along the shore,,as Oar evening closed-in,
the scene became more transporting. The weary
farmers were seen sitting at their cabin doors—the
children playing upon the green sward—the low.
nig cattlet--the bleating sheep—and the neighing
iiorties, were seen gathering round the barns for
their evening food. The blue smoke from the
`freshly roused fires, gently ascended from the cabin
chitnnies, spread and rolled away. Presently the
moon came 'rolling up from behind the eastern
bills, appearing -like a vast fire. The boat was
running:doe east when her light struck the waters,
forming a`most transcendingly beautiful moonlight
scene. For about a mile;the light was reflected
by the smooth waters, and it appeared as if they
were skimming - along between two skies.
I Kate and Harcatit stood in silent contemplation
At length the boat ran into the deep shade of a
frowning hill.
uOh low -gloomy ! how dismally so! How
much like despair; !" exclaimed Kate.
! "A.lovely remark, a truthful observation, Miss
Chita," replied Henry. " Thus it is with this life.
.
It has its shadesits deep and gloomy shades as
well as its silvery and glowing prospects."
":You speak like a philosopher, Mr. Ilarcont,"-
saidlCate, with a smile. "I hope you do not speak
from experience "!"
"1 p - restne, bilis Orton, th at you would scarcely

thought he. Henry , perceiving that a delicate
chord was touched, and, one which would not soon
cease its vibrations, PreParedretUrning to the cabin,
observing, atthe same time,that the-fog which was
beginning to gather, might prove injurious to
his Companion's health. This proposition was met
witli Kate's approbation ; for her mind was thrown
into a train of reflection, which unfitted her for a
stranger's society. Thui terminated that evening's
interview between Kate Orton did Henry Her
coot. •
On reaching the cabin, Kate retired to her room,
complaining of headache: and Henry took his seat
at the table for the purpose of reading. When he
had glanced over a few pages in a hasty manner,
he was interrupted by Frank Orton's approach,
who had, after an hour's lounge, come forth to
spend a few moments previously to retiring for
the night. Frank drew up a chair, and took a
seat beside Henry, and the two- engaged in a free
and friendly tete.a-ide until ten o'clock, when they
prepared for retirement.

A night scene upon a crowded steamboat is truly
a ludicrous one. The tables, the floor and the
chairs become important, and oftentimes disputed
territory. Here the high and the low, the rich and
the poor, the long and the short, are upon equal
footing. Those who are provident or fortunate,
enough to obtain berths, can amuse themselves
vastly at the expense of their less provident or for
tunate fellow travellers. Such was the employ
ment of our young friends immediately before en
tering their room. Atter seeing the outdoor
sleepers at ranged—some on tables—some on chairs
—and some on the floor—they went to rest.

lgr Mr. James Onelow, printer, if in the city, will
be good enough to call at the office of the Morning
Post, any time to.day;
The meanness and mendacity of the editor of the
Gazette his no longer hidden under his pharisaical
cloak; he has thrown off his whited co-ering, and
shown himself in his true character, as a most un
principled, deliberate and attrocioas falsifier. The
malignity of his heart is only-paralleled by Ma atter
recklessness. This may appear strange language for•
one editor to use towards another, but any reader of
the Post and of the Gazette will not be surprised at
'For sometime past, indeed ever since that Editor
bound himself body and soul to the slave powers at
Washington for a little government patronage, he
has taken every occasion to misrepresent us, to vili
fy us, to stigmatize us with all the epithets of his
choice vocabulary, such as "agrarian," "jacobin,"
"leveler," "enemy to property," "espouser of the
cause of rioters." We suppose the next be," friend
of publicans and sinners—and, if posiWe, to filch
from us our good name, without which life is worth
less:—a name which we prize more highly than all
the Iscariot cursed trash that "fifteen whiga" could
raise to buy a scoundrel, and the gold mines of Cal
fornia.into the bargain! His reasons for each a
warfare is to us inexplicable.
We have ever been plain spoken, for it is not
our habit to mince words; we have made enemies
in our time, harlot wilfully; we have encountered
many political antagonists, but have found the worst
of them fair when compared with the Editor of the
Gazette. Like the tieacherou■ Malay he dips his
darts in poison before he throws them.
We spoke lately of the lawless issue of " Shin
plasters" by these high in authority; and we told
how Justiceaverted her face refacing to look upon
the Illegal act; and we contrasted the worthies*
pees of the. Law in this cue With its vengeance tip-
Oir the offending factory girls. Hot we offered no
apologyfor the "rioters," when we showed how
easily the big fishes can break the meshes of the net
that draws up the little ones. We are as much op
posed to" riots," and outrages upon legal rights,
as the Editor of the Gazette, or any man in the com
munity—so is every-Democrat; bot we would like
to see men before they cast stones at the poor weak
transgressor ask the question ; " am I innocent
Self, am I doing to . others as I would that others
should do unto me," There are men who' assisted
in the prosecution of those poor factory girls who,
sorely tempted, and perhaps ignorant of the con
sequences, broke the law, while they themselves
were guilty of thrusting upon the community that
lawless issue of Shinplasters which in definace of
punishment robs the laboring man, the widow and
the orphan of a share of their hard won wages.
But these men are the " Alexanders," and the ef
fending factory girls are the --- we will spare
the reader the comparison,
So long , as we have a judgment to direct us in
what is right, we will speak the truth, regardless or
the enmity of scoundrel■ whose malicious hearts
take delight in perverting our sentiments ; and whose
oNique visions warp them into monstrosities, at
which they tilt, and shouting, as each " raw-head
and bloody bones" falls, " There goes the Morning
Post !"
It is beginning to be.questioned whether the Citlea
of Pittsburgh and Allegheny are in any way liable
for_Ahe redemption of the. issues of Scrip, with
:which the country is inundated. Our own opinion
'coincides with that of eminent lawyers, whom we
have heard declare unreservedly that no Such liability
.can attach or be inforced. The act of the issue was
illegal ab initio.
It is believed that parties who hold the bonds of
,the cities, negociated in good faith, will, in the
course of a few days, apply for an injunction, to
prevent the sale of the property advertised to be
sold. lithey succeed in enjoining the sale, it w ill
'then :lair endeavored to render the members of
cotincils; who authoriees the issues, and the Mayor
'and , Treasnier who signed and emitted them, per
sonally liable for their redemption.
It would be strange indeed, that if the city is not
liable, the individuals who counsellei and effected
such ntiagraut violatitill of the law, -should not be
made amendable to the consequences.
We beiieve that they have incurred this liability,
iruid cannot escape, and we have the pleasure of as
inuring the holders of the Scrip, thatthe wealth of
Oita& r atigieletta - ,,CounCilmen, is' ample and more
titian ample for the redemption of every dollar.

11, The, Constitutional Treastary;
It it - gratifying to pod. -.l)emp9l94a,;;Baat fot
wirlitanding the overwhhiminidereat we emiured
last November, our principles have triitinpbe4:
- -,The . '.whig party, nolkirrtl4-* limitude br;its
ptti4r, dare not make n show,9f opposition to the
measures successfully carried oat by the Adminis
trations of Van Buren and Polk.
The Constitutional Treasury scheme, first urged
upon the country - by President Van Buren, and
securely established by President Polk, excited the
fiercest opposition from our opponents. The his.
tory of those struggles will not soon be forgotten.
But two or three years have passed over us, and
we find that all opposition to the measure has
ceased. Now that the Whigs are in power, they
dare not talk ofrepeal.
But we commenced this for the purpose, merely,
of introducing to our readers the annexed article
from the New York . Journal of ComMerce—a pa
per which, until a few months, has been the most
able and uncompromising enemy of the Constitu
tional Treasury. Study it well, and you will see
in it proof that the principles of our glorious party
can never perish.
If we mistake not, the whip will find it much
easier to 'complain of the Sub Treasury system,
than to adopt any other which will be satisfactory
to themselves orthe pqblic. The present system
might doubtless be amended in some particulars,
but we do not believe that the party in power will
venture to distard it as a whole, or adopt The only.
competing systein,the use of the local banks.
In the first place; the banks in'spme parts of the
country are entirety unsafe and it is difficult jo
adopt a general system which is not available and
applicable throughout the country. The losses
sustained by the nation in consequence of deposit
ing the public money in the banks, were in 1847
estimated by Judge Woodbury, then Secretary of
the Treasury, at $15,492,000, including interest,
and depreciation of bank notes compared with spe
cie. As yet there has been no loss under the Sub
Treasury system.
Secondly, it the banks were all safe, in all sec
tions of the country, there would still be a valid
objection to the use of them as depositories of the
public money, provided the deposits so made, are
to be employed as a basis of discounts; and 00 no
other condition, we presume, would they be re.
ceived by the banks. When the public money is
employed as a basis of bank discounts, the first
effect is veay cheering to borrowers; and they
consequently increase their engagements and ex
tend their business. But when the deposits are
withdrawn, as they are at any time liable to be,
then suddenly the banks must curtail their dis
counts, and borrowers must pay up their extended
line, without the usual facilities for paying even a
smaller amount. It was the government deposits
more than anything else, that coaled the enormous
expansion of 1835-6, and the explosion of 1837.
These deposits bad been increasing rapidly for two
or three years, and were distributed among a host
of banks, making them all feel strong, when in
fact they were never so weak before. Gorged with
money not their own, and wishing to make a profit
on it, and withal to oblige their customers, the
banks extended their circulation and discounts to
an unprecedented amount. This enhanced the
prices of all descriptions of property, and the en
hancement of prices tempted new and ever.increa
sing engagements, till at length even a most infla.
ted currency was insufficient for the - transaction of
business, and so money became scarce in the midst
of abundance. Such an unnatural impetus has
been given to business of all sorts, and speculation
of all sorts, that a terrible crash must have follow.
ed, even if the government deposits had continued
in the banks. But as if to make an explosion in•
evitable, Congress, in June, ts 36, passed an act to
distribute the surplus revenue among the different
States. The amount so ordered to be distributed
was $37,465,850 97; being the aggregate on de
posit in the different banks, January 1,1837.
When the instalments under the above law be
came payable, some of the- banks were unable to.
comply,-titid•all were obliged to curtail their dis
counts and call in their debts. This created uni
versal distress among their debtors, many of whom
broke outright, leaving the banks minus. Soon the
winks themselves broke, i. e. suspended specie
payments, and a condition of bankruptcy ensued
all over the country, which' was humiliating and
disgraceful. Then came the Bankrupt Law, which,
in palpable violation of the National Constitution,
wiped out some two hundred millions of indebted-
ness by a sweep of the pen.
These terrible disasters, as we said before, origi
nated in the accumulation of a large government
deposit of public money, the placing of that money
in the banks, and the increase of bank circulation
and loans in consequence. We do not say that no
other causes concurred with the above, but that
was the originating cause, and the more the sub
ject is investigated, the more clearly the truth of
this assertion appear. •
With such a lesson before us; and still fresh in
our recollection, can it be believed that the people
of the United States will sanction the same experi
ment again? Surely they will not.
We admit that there are inconveniences connec,
ted with the Sub Treasury system. The locking
up of large -amounts of specie (which is the basis
of paper currency) must of course affect the money
market,—first, by diminishing, for the time being,
the amount of specie in circulation or in bank
vaults, and secondly, by begetting caution, and
perhaps curtailment on the part of the banks. But
of the two, this is a safer operation, and in the end
much less injurious than an undue expansion.—
The latter begets speculation, and terminates in
disaster. - The Conner prevents speculation.
Wherever the public money -is put, whether in
the banks or in Sub Treasuries, it will do mischief,
if accumulated in large amounts. For this reason
the revenue should be so graduated as not to ex.
teed the expenditures. At present, as we have a
considerable debt on hend,.there would seem to be
no danger of any great accumulation.
The scarcity of money,for some time past, has
by many been attributed to the Sub Treasury sys.
tem,litit, we think, without sufficient reason.—
,Doubtless the locking up of even a few millions of
ipecie has had some effect, but there must be other
.causes still more efficient. It is not our object to
trace them-out
Finally, whatever may be the views of the new
House of Representatives in regard to the Sub
Treasury system, the Senate will uphold and de.
fend it. Its repeal, therefore, cannot bo looked for
at present. whether desirable or not. Some amend
ments may, and we hope it will,be made to it,—
but to its repeal, and the consequent restoration of
the Pet Bank system, we are decidedly opposed.
The Gazette a few day. since Quixotically boasted
that it would oppose any act of General Taylor"s ad
ministration which the Editor considered wrong.—
The veteran Democrat, and honest man, fission
Dann, was removed from the Greensburgh Post of
merely because he did not vote for Gen. Taylor.
'Now, Deacon, was that removal right .or was it
wrong 1 If right; why don't you defend it 4 and if
wrong, come out like a man with a soul and de
nounce it.
Again,—Gen. Taylor has discarded the old faithful
National Intelligencor at Washington, the moat able
and dignified whig paper in the country, and is es
tablishing a new paper to be called "The Republic,"
;to carry out, it is suposed, his slavery opinions; and
iyet the Gazette has nor alluded to the matter even as
as item of news! Talk of "independence" indeed!
iThls Deacon White has sold himself to the 9111136
!administration at Washington, for the Bake of ob
taining the government patronage ; and he dare not
illtiapprove of theacts of his masters. Come, sir,
shake off the chains of slavery from your back, but
for a day, and give the public your opinion of Gen.
Taylor's outrageous treatment of Gales & Seaton !
!If you decline, the public will consider you as a tra

There is reason tibticipiite that the stieSto of
AustrisofCabiriet , vidtb - referenier to 4iiatrairs
of Italy in general are suchos to promote; rather
thin Infiltrate-, the reernationial objects of-theltal
ian States, and that the,present negotiations will
end in ihe formation of an Italian Confederation
in which the Imperial "Government will occupy
the position due to the importance of. its Italian
dominions. Had such' combination been formed
by Prince Metternich, it would probably have
the catastrophe which has plunged the
whole Peninsula, save . NaPles,into war or anarchy
and it would have established the ascendancy of
Austria, not by terror oeby arms, but by making
her the reat-protectoi of the common interests of
the -Italian States. Such a combination is now,
however, the more needed, since the Italians them
selves have shown the world of what they are
capable in manners of government. They have
not been threatened, they have not been interfered
with; they began with moderate reforms, and with
a set of Princes - singularly qualified in most in
stances to make those reforms succeed; but before
many months had elapsed, that revolutionory fac
tion Which in more powerful countries is kept
down by the will, of the majority, and the force, if
not of law, of the sword, fastened on the weak vi
tals of the Italian people. &writer in the Edin
burgh Review, whose-faith is still entire in the suc
cess of these experiments, declares that •=this great
contest may give to Rome itself a fresh signifi
cance in the history of mankind." This is in a
blue and yellow dress precisely the war-cry of
Joseph Mazzini; and with that cry Such men as he
have broken like banditti into the high places of
antiquity and the sacred places of Christendom—
reigning by terror and revolutionary despotism in
the name of the populace which is starving. intim
idated, and betrayed—sustaining by the plunder
of immortal works of art, and by the base sale of
inestimable treasures, that Government which they
inaugurated by atrocious ingratitude to a Pontiff,
and ty the atrocious murder of a wise and patri
otic statesman. If Rometad yet to, witness any
crime of fresh significance ; in her marvellous aortal
—if Rome bad yet to undergo letniliation beyond
the invasion of the former barbarians, it has befal
len her in these latter days of her regeneration,
when the vilest conspirators in Europe ate the
temporary lords of her eternal bills, and are ready
to sell by auction the last remains of her glory
There is something awful in the course of these
events, harked as they are by so many indications .
of providential justice and design, which have rais
ed a creature like Mazzini to the loftiest pinnacle
of his own mad ambition, and placed him on the
vacant seat of Emperors and Pontiffs, as if to ex
hibit to history and mankind the pigmies who
have in our day declared war against every thing
established, and who have borrowed the great
names of Italian independence and Romish liberty
to conceal the. miserable schemes and poor expe
dients of their own corruption, cowardice and in
capacity. Greatness is to such men a pillory and
a gibbet, and the longer they remain in their usurp
ed dominion the more will they be despised and
execrated even by that emasculate people which
subsists to such tyrants as these. We understood
the enthusiaim which induced many of the friends
of Italy to-augur for her better days, and to hail
those institutions which seemed calculated to in
crease her material prosperity, and to prepare her
for more liberal government;but unhappily for her
own fame, she has been taken at her word'and
tried too soon. Within a few months the visions
of regeneration, which seemed infinitely remote
when they were timidly put forward by a few let
, tered men, have been realized, surpassed; abandon
ed, and destroyed. Tile unripe fruit has not been
brought to maturity by the gradual influence of
the sunshine, but schorched and split by the glare
of a furnace. Folly, presumption, cupidity, and
the servile imitation of foreign crimes have ruled
the land—but no man has stood up fo speak of
freedom as the child of duty and the giiardian of
social order. Not one principle has been avowed
or defended by which society could, under any
form be maintainted; and were not a foreign army
already on the Po, we must conclude that the
magnificent cities of central Italy would relapse
by sheer anarchy. in tftharb arissoad
,desolation.. 7 7,
This lesson at least the world *.s learned—that a"'
foreign domination in Italy is not to her the great
est of calamities—that a far greater is the invasion
of her territory by her own outcasts, who return
armed with the revolutionary theories of other,
countries, and able to subjugate their feeble fellow
citizens at home. The most disasterous political
error of our time has been to lend- the influence of
great and civilized Governments to a revolution
which has ended in the triumph of such a faction,

The news communicated in my letter of yester.
day'respecting Bern's defeat has not gained credit
here, for, as every one, observes, "it is too good to
be true." Fortunately however, a letter which has
just reached me, puts the mattet beyond all doubt.
After Beni bad detested the Russians, and com
pletely sacked and ruined Hermandstadt, he sud
denly found himself opposed' la from 30,000 to
40,000 Russians, who, it seems,on hearing the dis.
aster which bad befallen theircomrades in alms,
bad entered Transylvania. it is supposed by 16e
Turzburger Pass, which is to the east of the Ito..
thenthurm defile. The conflict was short, but
most sanguinary. The Hove& soon took to their
heels, but Bern's Polish and our Vionnese legion
were annihilated. The five Polish officers of rank
who were hanged were Prince Waroniecki,Wrouski,
Bilski, Dumanski, and Podoletzki. Bern, who.
seems to have as many lives as a cat, escaped, and
it is repotted was already on the 18th inst at De.,

who is at Creglid, most be in a perilous position,
as he is opposed to the main force of the Magyar
army, which is said to be from 40,000 to 50,000
strong, whereas he certainly cannot have more
than 20.000 men. If the Russians Should take
upon themselves the occupation of Transylvania
until matters in Northern and Western Hungary
are a little regulated—which it is nearly certain
they will do—all will go well; but should such
not be the case, there is nothing to,be done but to
leave Transylvania and the Bukovvina to their fate
for the time being, which, in; the opinion of many
good tacticians, it would hai'e been wise to do at
first, for large as our Hungarian army is, it is nev.,
ertheless inconsiderable, when we consider•_the
enormous extent of country it has to act in. The
loss of life on both sides since the first ioutbnsak
of the war must be immentie.
Crawford County.
We understand that arrangements are in progress
for the establishment of a new Democratic paper at
Meadville, in Crawford county, which will be • unin
fluenced by cliques or factions. Tho movement, we
are informed, meets with the hearty concurrence of,
the great man of the party in that sterling coun
ty. From our knowledge tif the young gentleman
who is to be the editor of the new paper, we feel
confident that he will conducteuch a journal as will
fairly and honestly represent the voice of Democra
cy of that hitherto sterling Democratic county. We
trust the most ample success crown his efforts
in the good cause.
1 An infidel once, In -a controversy with a
christian, declared that ha could prove the non-ex
istence of the Deity from the Bible. The christian
defied him. He opened the good book and pointed
to the words—" Mere is no God." " Ah, but 111
your finger," said the christian, "and read the line
that precedes it, and yod will find it .wri.ten--qhe
fool hath said in his hearth" _
As that infidel used the text of the Bible, so does

magnanimity, he might hope to succeed in 'his ma

The United Democracy of Wisconsin
We learn that previous to the adjournment of the
Legislature, the Democrats and Free Soilers perfect.
ed a union on the basis of sound principles, and that
in consequence thereof, but one State convention is
to be called next fall, for the nomination of Gover
nor, &c., to he represented by two Delegates from
each Assembly District in the State.
It has long been perceived that the differences
were a mere matter of organization. That tenacity
ins fortunately yielded, and now the Democrats who
supported Cass and Van Buren will Work together,
and the secure in Wisconsin a democratic majority
alike impregnable to the efforts and seductions of
the Taylor administration. The united majority of
Cass and Van Buren over Taylor was 14.000. We can
scarcely expect so large a majority hereafter, as ma
ny Whigs who acted with the Free Soil party, will
uia the Taylor - poky ; bat Are can give the , largest
Democratic majority of any'Stata in the Union.-
It is pertinently suggested that the example of the
Democracy of our glorious State will be found wor
th( of emulation in other States. We have a num.
ra pride in toying that Wisconsin is the pioneer
State, where this union has been first consumated.---

SLAVES ram CaLtrousrta.--An enterprise has been
projected in the State of Geoigia, for the emigration
of 300 to 500 men.ftom that State to Calitornia, each
to be accompatied by at least. One, and not more
than four male slaves. The following is one of the
articles of the Association : .

Sth. The object being to enjoy their rights in
comnson with other citizens in-a Territory which
belongs to the people of the United States without
-distinction of sections, it is proper they should be
well armed, and while abstaining from all- innova
tions upon the rights of any one, be prepare to repel
any and all aggressions.
We very much doubt it the proposed Company
will ever commence their " march," and stiil more,
whether they will ever reach California. If, how
ever, they should do both, the enterprise will avail
nothing as to the establishment of Slavery in that
Territory. For as soon as its inhabitants shall be
empowered to organise a State government, they
will insert a clause in their Constitution prohibiting
Slavery.—New York Jour. of Coma
