B,egisthing of the Fun I
Those. who . anticipated a &ill summer will be sore
ly disappointed.' There is not the least danger of
stagnation in the political world, from present ap
pearances. We have all along predicted a general
blow up of the Taylor party, and it appears that we
are not to be'disappointed. ' Tbe"Democrattc Tay
lor men" of Philadelphia held a meeting on the 28th
ult. of which George Lippard, Esq., was chairman,
and passed. a string of resolutions, reminding Gen.
Taylor of hii no-party promises and pledges, and
among them was the following :
3..Tlmt, in our., opitien, a cabinet appointment
should have been conferred upon one or the Demo
cratic supporters of Taylor, an order to enable the
President to fulfil hie pledges, and effectually neu
tralize all the efforts and intrigues of
. mere partisans.
• - The proceedings of the meeting referred to were
cent by , L itfr.Lippartl to the editor of National Whig,
ntWnshittlon, ft* publication, with a request to
seuilthe bill for the same; but Mr.Venton returned
the following answer

Now, what ate we to infer from this t Why, that
General Taylor has come to to the fixed determina
tion to violate his pledges of no-partyism, discard
his Democratic supporters, and make his administra
don. " ultra whig" as possible. Very well; we
are glad of it. The Democrats who voted for the
old Chief, cadet the delusive belief that he would
be a 4 i second t►ashington," now know how badly
they were fooled 1

ering from this corrupt hypocrite, and exhibit him
in all his naked deformity, he throws himself back
upon his dirtily! But this will not deter us from
Perri/ruling our duty. Tie anti-slavery wbigs, who
lteretrifore placed confidence in the Deacon, now de
spine him trona the bottom of their hearts, since he
sold biniself td the alavencrats of the South for a
little government printing. Indeed, there is a ru
mOr.lhrougb the city that the old supporters of the
Gazette intend starting a new organ, which will be
honest and independent:in its tone and character. We
should not be surprised to hear of the establishment
of such apapor.

This estimate, which is moderate in all particu

would give the Democrats a decided majority over
both Whigs nod the 9 Independents. But of those
Independents at least half will be as often with the
Democrats as with the Whigs; leaving the control
of the I:l6use emphatically with the Democracy!

The Brilliant Victory in Virginia i
6 , OLE VIRGINNY NEVER
The Deinocracy hare made a clean weep in Vir
ginia. The "mother of States and of statesmen,"
as she has been appropriately termed, is true as steel
to her ancient faith. Glorious old Commonwealth !
We honor and love her. She can neither be hum
bugged, bribed, nor seduced from her political in
tegrity. The Richmond Enquirer, of Friday, thus
sums up the result of the Virginia election, in a few
words:
Fos Conannss.—The following members are cer
tainly elected : Democrats—Thomas H. Bayly,
Joke S. Millson, James A. Seddon, R. IC. Meade,
Alexander H. Holladay, James Wbowell, Richard
Parker, Alexander Newman, Henry A. F.iimunson,
Paulus Powell, Thomas S. ➢ocock,Tlomas H. Aye
rett, Fayette WM ullen-13. Whig—Jeremlah Mor
ton (elected by Dement Ala) 1.
The Kanawha District not yet fully heard front,
though the returns are favorable to the success of
Beale, Dem. If we carry hits, Virginia will send to
Congress 14 Democrats and I Whig; or rather, ass
wag says, 141 Democrats.
In the House of Delegates, we have gained in
Berkley 1, Fairfax I, Fouquier I, Nuttoway 1, Pat
rick I, Randolph and Barbour 1, Taylor 1-7 ! and
lost in Fredeiick (by caring note ot the Sheriff! 1,
Goochland Idienry 1, Marshall 1, Morgan 1, Prin
cess Anne 1, Rockbridge 1, Stafford I—S. Nett
Democratic lone 1. In the counties to hear from,
we - shall probably gain more than we lose . may
therefore safely say, that the Senate and the House
will continne Democratic.
The Pennsylvania Railroad.
We fiat in the Philadelphia papers the following
statement of the affairs or the Pennsylvania Railroad,
prepared by Mr. Menateu, the efficient and intelli
gent President or the Company :
I have been requested by the committee to pre
sent a condensed view of the positturi of the Comp.
ny at this time.
Amount of subsenption now available, $3,180,800
Instalments paid in, '2080,00
lneulments to be collected,
listimated cost of completing
road to Hollidaysburg,
Expenditures to this time $1,961,000
Funds to be received, say, 1,000,000
required to complete,
Amount now asked fur,
%Vbich leave, for mactrizeryt
The final coat will not materially vary flout the
estimates. The determination of the lloaval not to
construct' the rtradon bnirowed capital as conclusive.
The prospects of the read, as an investment, are
very promising; especially as the speedy construe
thin of the Penusylvana and Ohio wad, which is a
continuation of our road through Ohio, is secured,
When the trade is established to Huntingdon, where
it will reach in December next, full interest ott the
investment may be expected. When, in connection
with the portage, larger results will be realized, as it
will coinnaand the Philadelphia and New York
trade in winter, and a large summer trade to and
from this city. The whole of the northern travel to
Pittsburgh, now amounting to 40,000 passengers per
annum, and a local travel which exceeds this num
ber. The trade of the Little Juniata Valley _will
reach fifty to seventy-five thousand dollars pet an
num, la return, a very heavy trade may be eipect
ed in livestock, both cattle and hogs—over 4 hun
dred thousand live hogs came over the Baltimore and
Ohio road last month. Baltimore is absorbing the
pork-packing trade by means of her road.
The nett profits of the Baltimore and Ohio road
now reach 8 percent. on the capital. The Harris. ,
burgh road earns near eight-and•a-half per cent. on
its whole investment.
The Pennsylvania road has been built in the most
permanent manner, with heavy iron, graded for dou
ble track. S. V. MERRICK, President.
The Dublin correspondent of "The Tribune"
says that the AttomeyGeneral has discovered his
California at home, having already cleared, so say
his friends, £44,000 by his proceedings against
Mr. Duffy. The same writer says:
"It would undoubtedly be more gratifying to
the patriot to be set free by the verdict of his own
countrymen than by the clemency of the Crown.

one individual turn shuddering from the papers,
little more now than records of death and exter

cription of misery they could neither eleviate nor
forget. Just imagine a dreary Connaught high
way, dotted with the dead, and here and there a
moving skeleton passing over it with the corps of
some loved relative slung across the back with a
rope; and if that is not enough, imagine the body
slipping from the exhausted bearer and the head
knocking against to ground. That is no ideal
sketch."

The following appears as a Telegraphic Despatch
in several Eastern papers. The Pennsylvanian
thinks that a few move such results as that in Virgin
ia, will explode Mr. Fillmore's scheme:
It is said that the recommendations of Vice Presi..
dent Fillmore, on the subject of banking cornets
fions, while Comptroller, in favor of the receipt of
State Bank notes, secured by United State stock, for
Government dues, meets with favor from Mr. Mere
dith; and it is believed that some such modification
of the Sub-Treasury will be recommended to Con
gress.at its next session by the Treasury Depart
ment.
John C. Lewis, Democrat, was chosen Speaker of
the House on 2d May, at the second trial, having re

Ammerlean Consuls AbirOad.
The New York Tribune contains a statement of
the official income of our consuls aboad, by which
it appears that no consulate is at present worth
$lO,OOO. The largest amount received is by the
consul at Liverpool, who in 1845 received $9,963-
05. The consulates at Rio de Janeiro and at Lon
don are also worth $9,000. The 'next best are
the consulates of Havana and Glasgow, both of
which yieldannually upwards of $6,000. St.
Thomas and the Sandwich Islands each yield $4,-
000; six other posts yield $2,000 per annum; eigh
teen are worth $1,000; and the remaioing nearly
consulates range from pp to $4,00 per annum,
much the largest proportion of them being worth
less than $5OO. The consul at Alexandria, in .
Egypt, receives a salary of $3,000. Three con-
Buis on the coast of Barbary each receive a salary
of $2,000, and five in China receive a salary of
$l,OOO a year each. One at BeYrout receives a
salary of $5OO. Several of the minor cooeule have

Ravers DONE AWAY wzru.—An invention has re
cently been produced in Reston by Mr. Samuel
Pratt, by which sheets of metal of any lougth, bandi t
hoops, dtc. may easily and quickly beioined togeth
er without the use of rivets. Peculiar slits are made
in each end of the collar ribbon, or the band of the
hoop, or in the ends of the sheets of metal, which
enables one sheet, or baud, to driv&tail into the
other, when a blow from the hammer joins them
as effectually as by riveting, and effects a great sav
ing in time.
INTEND= VISIT OF Tilt Ea-Kits OF SAIDIMA
To AttttucA.—Tbe unfortunate Charles Albert, oho
has reached Madrid on his way to Oporto, does not
intend. as sumo of the papers have given, out, to re
side in the latter city. Persona who are acquainted
intimately with his movements, have stated ha in
tentions to be, to leave Europe entirety and take
refuge in the United States of America—a course
which on many accounts presents very desirable ad
vantages. We believe that the ex-King, atter a short
sojourn at Oporto, will sail direct for New York,.
and intends to spend some time in traveling through
the States. No place, we believe, has been tired
upon for his permanent residence.

ED" SICK. Ilasoscitx.—Wrighre Indian Vegetable Pills
I are a certain cure for every- description of head-ache,
because they cleanse the body from those morbid humors
which, if confined in the stomach, are the cause of nau
sea and sickness, want of oppetite,disagreeable taste io
the mouth; bad breath, wasting or the gum, decayed
teeth, and many other distressing complaints ; and when
taken into the circulation, and thrown upon the various
parts of the body, give rise to every malady incident to
man. Four or five of 'Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills,
taken once in twenty-foot hours, will, in a short time, put
a complete stop to Sick Head-ache—at the same time the
digestive organs will be restored to a healthy tone.
Beware of Counterfeits and Itnitations.—Remember
that the Original and Only Genuine Indian Vegetable
Fills have the written signature of IVicusst \Valour on

About a half dozen boys were mulcted in costs,
on the charge of “swinging'; under tha old Alle
gheny bridge, on Sunday. They will probably, a
'mime therriselves elsewhere on that day. Complaints
have been loud and frequent about the'conduct of
the little oriel on the Allegheny wharf, and the May
or concluded to stop them, if posiible. Officer Fitz
morris appeared this morning with an armful of mu
sical instruments , including a drum. Ile bad arrested
a party of serenaders at- about two o'clock in the
morning. They were paying their respectsio a new
ly married pairin Avery's row, much to the annoy-'
once of the neighbors, and contrary to the city ordi
, once. They walked to the Mayor's Office, and
were from thence permitted . to go, after giving up
their music. ' •
Citoinna,—There were frigh - tful rumors of Chol
era yesterday morning. We -went to 6, river and
enquired as to its - eitent. TlMMate ofthe Caledon
ia died on .Sunday evening—the disease was pro•
noneced Cholera.
'Jane Klinefelter, a Pilot on the Hibernia, died
of Congestive fiver: These were the only deaths
we heard 'of. There were no other. cases of any
kind.
We again urge peoplOo put no confidence in-the
reports that may be flying through the streets about
Cholera in this city. People at a distance are paitic.
ularly requested to receive the statics that may be
told them with many grainier* allowance. We op
derstand there are Sad rumors about the' health of
the city. ,We do,say, that-we not4e,fewer funerals
just now than at any time for a year'past. We be
lieve the city was never in a more healthy condi
tion.
LT The t 4 man on the roof' , of the Wylie street
house turns out to have been a Pea-Fowl. We think
the persons who gave the alarm should feel a little
cheap. The fact is, nearly all who were in the
street—about a hundred, includingmen, women and
boys—were so frightened, that ithey did not know
what they were looking at. The owner of the bird
must keep him caged at night, for their is no know
ing what may happen to him.
Aff OWE* noon.— We have to record s another
flood in the Allegheny. The river commenced ri
sing on Saturday n ight, and on Monday morning was
almost bank full; The destructicna of property was
immense. We noticed that several of the Lumber
dealers lost lots of boards, Ito., and would have lost
much more, had they not kept men employed on
Sunday, making rescues of the floating lumber. Ma
ny rafts were swept away; and on the piers of the
bridges were many evidences of wrecks.
;Kr We call attention to the advertisement of Mr.
Robert Barker, in this daps paper. Mr. B. has on
band a large and splendid stock of Cloths, Cassi
metes, and Vestings, which are worthy of the atten_
Lion of those who wish to procure good clothing.
We understand that Mr. Barker has the reputation
of being one of the very best cutters in the city. In
addition to the Clothing business, he keeps on hand
a general assortment of Millinery, Including nearly
every article of lady's wear. We hope our friends
will give him a call.
