Pursuant to jmblie notice, on Blectionifoltas President and Twelve Directors of the Pitts burgh and Steubenville Railroad, took place yesterday, at the Rooms of the Board of Trade, in tins city. There were a number of candidates in a good deal of excitement pre vailed. The following gentlemen were .declared duly elected, having received a majority of the votes given: President —HAßMAß DENNY. DIBEOTOBS. J. JK. Moorhead, A. Kirk Lewis, Joseph Pennook, Charles Nayhny Samuel livingston, Jesse Edgington, -■ Wm. M. Lyon, ‘ Wm. M. Duncan, Thos. S. Clarke, . Lewis Hutchison; Isaac Walker, Jr., . Henry Graff. This is undoubtedly a strong board, and is composed of men who nre known to be the true friends of tho Pittsburgh and Steubenville Rail road. This important work is now in good hands, and there is no doubt but that it will be pushed forward with the utmost energy. Pittsburgh and Steubenville Railroad* The Hon. Daniel Klloobe, President of the Steubenville and Indiana Railroad, who is now in this city,. yesterday received telegraphic despatches, from Ohio, containing tho cheering intelligence that tbc town of Newark, Licking connty, hassubscribed $lOO,OOO to the capital stock of tho Steubenville and Indiana Railroad; the town of Dresden, Muskingum county, $lOO,- 000; and the town of New Philadelphia $60,- 000—making in all $250,000. Mr. K. informs us that the total subscription to the above Road now amounts to about $1,200,000. These foots show that'our. Ohio friends are determined to make a connection with onr city with all possi ble speed. The right feeling prevails along the entire line from Steubenville to Columbus. POOR PAtJREB EUROPE I Our pure minded Whig philanthropists very often have their sympathies excited, because of the great amount of food that iB indirectly ta ken out of the mouths of the poor of this.coun-. try, by means of the introduction of articles manufactured in Europe. .There is scarcely a yard of cloth of any kind imported, that they do not piteously cry is a loaf of bread, and a stout piece of meat, .besides varioils other simi lar articles, taken from the mouth of some poor starring mortal in this country, who is praying and in every other way trying to get work! And then they are all the time telling us, too, about our competing with the half Btarved mil lions of Europe! Here is a fact, then, for them i to gloat upon. One of the lending -commercial papers of Now York (the-HeraZd;) a-day or two ago, said—“ The only feature in the export trade of this port for the past week, was the large shipment of breadstuffs... Nearly, fifty thoueandbarrelt of flour were shipped to foreign ports; and:,from . the engagements made fog, freight, the probability iB that the exports dar ing the present week will be equally large,”— Now if the'Whig theory^be a true one, if their, policy be a good one,—then-we are doing that which will at once materially : affect our best in terests, by actually killing off a largo number of those paupers with whom our manufacturers have to contend 1 The conclusion, we think, is inevitable. The basis of the whig argument is, that what is brought to us from abroad is just so much taken from the mouths of our working people; and if this holds good with us, it must certainly hold good elsewhere. All admit that tho operatives of Europe are not so well provi ded for; either in food or raiment, as those .of our oountry. It theretbre_inevitablv- follows, that evety barrel of flour, every barrel -of pork, ’ every bushel of beans, and ton of cheese that we‘| send to Europe is more nearly reduoing to utter I destitution-eveiy poor pauper operative into i whose vicinity- those articles are. sent. It is to be taken for granted, of course, that they have them, or can produce them; and therefore they ore- only imooverished hy -having - them sent among them! Oh! the beauty, the sublimity,; the consistency of Whig argument! .. British Income and Expenditure. Tho government balance- sheet of the income and expenditure of Great Britain, for the year ending July 6th, shows the following result ; The income was £68,045,26/ 95., and tho ex penditure *260[012,480 18s. 4d„ fihojying an ex-‘ cess of income over the expenditure of £8,032, 786 7s. 6d. The balanoesin the exchequer on the 6th of July last , year were £8,900,380 Is, IOJd., and onthe sth ultijno they, amounted to £7,984,164 9s. CJd. Coiieoe-huj-Texas;—Bev-i an en * ergetic missionary-of-the l old School rian Church in Texas, visited the North iastyeatf for the purpose of obtaining the means of erecting a College in that State. 1 He lately reported himself to hove succeeded in coll eCting the hand some sum of $86,600 with which hB proposesto commence the erection !of suitable' buildings in Austin the present-fall. The principle of ballasting vessels with water, instead of the ordinary has been success fully carried out at New Castle, England. The water, which iB admitted through, an aperturein the bottom of the vessel; is encased in bags, and is discharged tbroughthe same aperture by means of on improved-patent pump. .... Among the facta stated by Governor Johnston, the prostration, (and at many points the utter rain) of the Iron hnsiness, was not of the least consequence.'* Set, among the singular facts that are sometimes borne tons from the “other side of the water,” we find that, —from a return printed by order of the British House of Com mons,— there were last year imported into that country 785 tons of iron ore, 1613 tonß chro mate of iron, 650 tons of pig iron, 84,065 tons of unwrought iron in bars, and 983 tons of bloom "iron, principally from Sweden and the United Slates! Now it- will appear strange tcf unsophisticated minds,:?thata single- ton of American iron should have been sent to Eng land, if so many iron establishments in this .country have been utterly ruined because they could not compete with: the pauper labor of Eu rope. Men of ordinary capacity-cannot com- 1 pretend and. reconcile sech /octe os' theße. It takas Whig politicians, and Whig financiers—. especially such os have helped to fix the present enormous debt upon the State, and now boast of, their great efforts, and their great achievements in getting the State out of debt, to prove to the people any thing ,* and of coarse they can prove something about these facts!. ::AUGUST 22, 1861 COUNTY. -GOv.' Johnston, in his .' speech' the other, day; made the burthen: of his song the ruin of tie Coal interest of this State/ among other .prostrated and ruined branches of business. The (latest statement -we have before us, from the jPottsville Regwler, —giving the amount of Coat shipped 'from Port Carbon, Pottsville, 1 Schuylkill Haven, and Port —is up to the 24th ult,; at that time the amount shipped had exceeded the amount up to the correspond ing dale in 1850 no less than 814,640 tons. This • is only the Sohuylkill coal trade. . What the in crease has been in the Lehigh Coal business we cannot determine; but we know that the miners werO prepared, at the opening of the season, to do ai largely increased business. As it respects ' .the Coal business in general, we know that it ‘ has 'materially increased. Cor several years: a portion of the miners suffering, IOBt year, from ' floods, &c. For Governor Johnston to say, in view of the facts, that the coal interest is among the proj/raterf affairs of our State, is to simply state whot ho knows to fye untrue. • ■ marriage Extraordinary. Among the marriage announcements in the. City of Washington papers, the following is not among the least interesting and remarkable:— In the Catholic Church atHarper’sFerry, Va., on the 9th inst. by the Bev. Mr. Plunkitt, Mia ApoUonia Jagello, late of Lithuania, Poland, to Major Oasptr Tochman, formerly of Warsaw, Poland. .. AMERICA'S IRON.' A Stubborn Fact. ' FROM PHILADELPHIA. [OOEEEaPOSDESOE OF THE DAILY MOKEISO POST. . ■ Philadelphia, Ang. 18, 1851. The results of the recent elections in the Western and Southern States arc at length work ing themselves, clear of ambiguities and discro pancics, and can now bo read with a good degree i of certainty. Although turning on different is- i sues in different States, they indicate very clear- | ly a steady and gratifying Demooratio progress. In Indiana eight Democrats and two Whigs have beeD elected to Congress,. and a very excellent new constitution adopted by some 25,000 major ity. Kentucky, for thofirst time in twenty years, ■ elects a Democratic Governor, Lazarus W. Pow ell, and the Democrats also gain one member of Congress, the new delegation being composed of five Democrats and five Whigs. Tennessee elects a Whig Governor. Gen. Campbell, by some 2000 majority, and the Whigs also gain one mem ber of Congress. In Alabama, H. W. Collyer, Dem.j is elected Governor, and five Union and two Southern Bights Representatives in Con-j greßS, In regard to National politics tho dele-1 gation stands the same - as in the last Congress, i viz: five Democrats and two Whigß. In North i Carolina the new delegation is also tho same as I in the last Congress: three Democrats and sir Whigs- From Arkansas tho returns aro just be ginning to come in, but they indicate the election of B. W. Johnson,■ Dem., to Congress. These results have a determinate and important signi ficance; but to'them also should be added the foot the Democratic vote everywhere shows a large increase, and Democratic majorities havo in almost every instance been Bwelled, while Whig majorities have been reduced. The Dem ocracy of tho country will gather encouragement from this gratifying state of things, and the October eleotions which aro the next to follow, : will show in still stronger light the strong and irresistible Democratic impulse of the country. Wo are a week nearer California than we were, and are thus enabled to note our progress. Thirty days from New York to San Francisco does not satisfy American energy ; and oven news from Europe, if over ten days on tho way is felt to be stale, and is passed by half read,-in anticipation of later news every hour. The Bal tic came in on Saturday, in 9 days 18 hours from Liverpool, and to-day we have three days later [ still by the Canada at Halifax. Tho Baltic’s was the shortest passage yet, but it will be accom plished inside of nine days before winter. The last arrival from California by the new route of the river San Juan and Lake Nicaragua to San Juan del Suel, has given greater importance to that route than a year's theorizing cotfid have done, and although this trip through ocoupied 29 days, we may hereafter anticipate regular communication with San Francißco in 22 days. •The steamer Pacific, onthe otherside, will make regular passages to San Juan del Suel in 12 days from San Francisco; thence we havo 15 miles of land travel over a good road, and steam across Nicaragua Lake and down San Juan river, occu pying altogether one day; and oight days from San Juan to New York; makes 21; but to be certain we allow one day for’detentions on the routo. It will not be long, however—mark the prophefcy—before better acquaintance with the Paoifio coaßt and increased facilities for steaming will enable that part of the passage to be ac complished in eight days, and before I shall ad dress you in the 88d week of 1852, wo shall be talking of twenty-seven and twenty-eight days from San Francisco to Liverpool as of things ful ly realized. • The Demooratio Conventions, both of tho City and County, met to-day, and made general nom : inations of candidates, &o. There never was n i better feeling manifested among our friends than 'at this moment, and a thousand circumstances i combine to inspire confidence in the success of i the whble State tioket by a good old fashioned majority. The greatest care will be exercised j in our Conventions hero to seoure the best men i for overy position, and especially .will it bo so with reference to the judicial nominations,: in or | der that this very important.reform measure— thedeotion of tlie judiciary—may find no im i pediment. The names of quite a number of ' gentlemen;- all learned and abbs,, have been brought forward in connexion with the Judicial nominations, but the most .prominent are the ! Hon. Ti hL Pettit, Hon. IVm. D... Kelly, Judge S SharSWood, H. ff. -T.: Campbell,:F<; C.j Brightley, i and Jameß Johnson.--- From among theso the .se- I lections, will in all probability.be made, and j there are none more able, or who wiß.provo more do- Voted; either at the bar or upon the Benoh, to the great principles of legal reform. The season at Cape May, which has been one of'extraordinary success, iB rapidly drawing to a close ' The number of visiters upon the Island has for some weeks averaged 5,000 —the largest number being 8,000. This large number of vis itors has mainly resulted from the increased fa dlUies for reaching the Capes, and the low rate •of fare both upon the river and the island, by r W hieh whole families - arc enabled to'live there in luxury- and in the very glow of fashion, aside fromlhe ■ delightfulness of the sqa 1 breezes and the surf, almost as cheaply 'as at home.

Boys Ijoljot. ■ From theaddress of Judge Geo. W. Woodward, of lYilksbarre, Pa., delivered on tho occasion of laying tho corner stone of the Shnnk Monument | at Tratipe, on the 4th of July last, we have taken the following. It is unnecessary for us to say that. Judge Woodward is a Democrat, —one of the Old Line Pennsylvania Democrats,-—and one whom it would bo impossible to induce to do a -wrong action to servo himsolf or his. party. But for his sterling honesty .: he would have long t since been a distinguished Senator from Pcnnr sylvania, in Washington City. : ■I would (said Judge- Woodward) tnat I could address myself to every boy, and especially every poor boy, not only in Montgomery county, but throughout our land. I would point them to the elements which combined to give success toyoung Shunk—“ untiring industry,” and“his earnest desire for self improvement.” It is not the blazonry of Herald’s office—-nor pedigree— nor dusty records of family genealogy—nor fam ily—tnor friends—nor wealth—nor anything but “‘untiring industry” and “an earnest. desire for self improvement,” that will make full propor i timed and useful men. . And these, thank God! I never fail. What boy was more scant of meanß I —more straightened in circumstances, than was Francis K. Shunk? and, yet, ho overcame the disadvantages of .birth and fortune, and made himself a name more enduring than the mate rials of his monument. ‘I love to contemplate such examples. I love to withdraw my eyes from tho tinsel foppery of our cities; from the mincing gait and the mustached lip: from the wasp-liko form and the faint complexion of the beau monde t and fasten 1 them on the hardy and robust sons of, toil. It I is refreshing to see how firm they tread tho earth ] how stalwart, and stoldid, and healthful they are And there -ms something in agricultural labor, let me tell the farmer boys of Pennsyl vania, better calculated than any other employ ment, to develope not only the phisical propor tions of the man, but the judgment, and all the sterner qualities of the intellect.. And such la- 1 [ bor affords intervals, when books, if well chosen I and rightly used, may bo not only a refreshing recreation, biit the means .of qualifying forother spheres of duty and usefulness. Study the ex ample of Shunk ; catch its full meaning, ye sons I of toil, condemned to indigence; and yet as ye I pause in labor, and wipe the. sweat from .your I eyes,; look here I See this Monument.

Heavy Grodci OTercome The following; from the Baltimore Patriot, re lative to a late excursion of the President and Direotors of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, shows that tho difficulties which were onco ap prehended in regard toheaTygradcs on railroads are overcome with ease: . “It remains to notice the manner in. which tho road was passed over andespeoially theliigh grade of 110 feet per mite, about which so much interest has been felt. V . ‘i The train containing the visitors consisted of five passenger cars well filled. These wero drawn by engine No. 71, built by Mr. Ross Wi nans, to tho Peidmont station, at ..a moderate 'speed, to permit a view of the road; and after a short delay at the Point, daring which one of the passenger cars was detsohed, and five gondola cars loaded ■ with iron were attached, the looo motive proceeded with tiiis traiii. weighmgabout 117 tons. Over the successive grades 88, 40,50, 70 feet per mile, extending for -1-f miles, the en gine ran in 4 minutcs : or at the rate of 20 miles, per hour, and then entering upon the grade of 110 feet per mile, she ascended it in S minutes, to near the point at which the track, terminates,, a distance of 2J miles from the beginning of the grade. The speed on'the-grade of ,116.. feet, therefore, averaged 17A . miles per. hour. The steam pressure during the run was. 110 pounds per square inch and the cut-off or expansion valve was used for .about two thirds . of the dis tance, when it was changed to the full stroke, the shifting of the valve motion causing a little lobs of headway, which was however, imme j diately regained. - The .steam was blowing off iat the time, though not freely. There was no | slipping of the wheels and no necessity for sand- I ing the track. “Immediately after the passenger train the iocomotive No. 72, built inthe.shops of the com pany at Mount Clara, came up the grade with a train of 1 8 gondola ears loaded with iron rails, and weighing in all 234 tons gross. Her speed upon the grade was about 7} miles per, hour, and she performed the rtin, working her valves at full stroke, with abundance of steam, and without stopping her wheels. The rail was dry and clean, and in the most favorable condition for adhesion. “The weight.of engine 71 is 24 tons of 2,240 lbs., and of engine'72 is 25| tons. The former has cylinders of 19 inches, and the latter of 20 inches diameter—the length of stroke in each case being 22 inches. On tho previous day both engines hud bcon tried—No. 71 with 16 and No. 72 with 18 cars, or 208 and 234 tons respective ly—and each drew its load np the grade without halting or slipping its wheels, and at speeds of from 6 to 8 miles.per hour.” Discovery of tiie Okioinal Mahdsobipt op the Acts op the AaosTees —AGrooksavant M. Bimonidiß, protends to have discovered in the dif erent convents in his country, tho arehieves of which he has been collecting, tho place where the original of the Acts of the Apostles is hid. It is according to his nccount, in the small island of Antigonus, situated at the entrance of the Sea of Marmora. M. Simonidis has demanded from the Porte, through the Sardinian Minister, an authorization to make a speedy research in that spot in the presence of tho learned men of Con stantinople; ho particularly wishes to have some geologists with him in order to be better able to prove that tho earth has not bcon moved for ages in tho spot which lio points out. It is said that tho Greek patriarch, fearing that such an impor tantdiscovery might lead to fresh sohisms in tho Church has besought the Porte to refuse the authorization asked for. It is thought however that it will he granted, and that the Bcaroh will commenoo immediately. —Oahgnanfs Mcs senger. . ’ -From Cuba. —The brig Charles Kershaw, pre viously reported at Charleston, from ■ Havana, whioh plaoo she left on tho the 18th announoes the arrival, at the later port, of the United States steamer Vixon, with intelligence, that many-of the patriots from Cienfuegoß, Trinidad, Villa Clara, and Principe had surrendered to tho government troops.;, and many. others had been'taken prisoners. The pervalent opinion at Havana was, that the disturbance was very serious, but commercial matters; neverthelessj-remained unaffeoted.: An arrival at Jacksonville, Florida from Car denas, (no date) confirms the previous accounts •of the patriot successes. • They were daily in creasing in numbers, and anxiously awaiting the arrival of Gen. Lopez. A" Relio ofthe Fkenoh Maiiine.-—A model of the first French ship of the line, constructed at'Dicppo, early in the seventeenth century, has just been sold in France among the effects of M. Duchat,: who was a naval commissaire under the empire. < The model and the ship were construot ed in 1687. The vessel carried seventy-six guns inbattery, and was one hundred and thirty-five feet long, and of excellent proportions. It was Called the Couronne, and had a long, and glorious career: Cardinal Richlieu, who after the siege Of Rochelle, devoted much attention to the de .velbpement of the French marine, expressed great satisfaction with this ship, and :sottled upon the builder, M. Morin, a pension of £B,OOO, and bestowed upon him some title of honor; The model was sold; to a .rich Hollander; who has a numerous collection of'Similar models.— Its authenticity i is indisputable; although it is said;to in a bad state of preservation. j k V < “■* C ‘ * - < -» i t The Buffalo Republic has a notice of an inven tion, perfected by Mr. Stephen. Alero, of that city, which combines the qualities of an excel lent ship-bed and perfect life-preserver. The -advantages it claims over all life-preservers in use, are, it is impossible for a person to sink kwith oueofthem on, —it docs not have to be blown fall of wind, and oan be attaohed instantane ously. --" V t \ 1 v * ‘ Scribbling# and Clippings. The Banger Whig says, that a Vermonter has invented a machine for making brick by steam power, by which the clay is shoveled up, dried, : pulverized, and pressed dry into the moulds, at the rate of fifty thousand a day, and placed in the kiln for burning, no sun-dryingbeing neces sary after the bricks come from the mould. — The bricks come out in a very handsome and so: lid shape. The Norfolk Argus states that a great revival in the Methodist Church has lately taken place in Nansemond county, Va. Many zealous and able divines were present, and seventy-five per sons were added to the church. The Paris journals announce that the first rail tray in Sweden has just been completed, It ex tends from the Lake of Langbar to that ofYn gen, in the district of Fillipstad, and is about seventy-five miles in length. . : According to the returns to parliament, there ; were 26,813 persons committed for trial inEng i land and Wales in tho course of last year.

The number sentenced to death I was 49. The Virginia Gentral Railroad Company shows an increase of recepts for tho six months from Ist January, 1861 to Ist July, 1851, over the same months of the preceding year of $34,948 41.

It will be remembered that G. W.

Extraordinary Petrification and other Curiosities.— The steamer St. Ange, Captain Labarge, arrived here yesterday from the Yellow Stone, after a voyage of fifty-two days. Capt. L. informs ns that for ten years past he has, in every successive annual trip, observed a remark able looking solitary cedar treo standing upon a bleak and elevated point, about fifty miles below the mouth of the Yellow Stone. While coming down, this last trip, he saw that his oldacquain tance had fallen to the earth. Curiosity led him to the spot, which was about half a mile from the river, and perhaps 700 feet above the level, when he found to hfs surprise, that the tree was in the most perfect state of petrifaction. Judg ing from the shortness of the interval sinco ho had seen it standing, it must have been in that condition while standing erect as it had grown t The trunk was about thirty-six inches in diame ter. A fragment from it is now lying upon our table, and isdecldedly the mostperfeot specimen of ligneous petrifaction we have ever seen. Dr. Evans, U. S. Geologist, who came as a passenger on the St. Ange, found near the same spot, the Bboulder blade of a maßtodon, . meas uring nearly 3J feet across—also, some enor mous foot bones of the same animal. Fossil shells, the head of a snake, and other curiosi ties, were found by Dr. Evans in the same looal ity.. ' ' ■ Among the notabilities of the trip was the catching of a beautiful specimen of the linnet— a bird very rarely seen—by some of the boat hands. Its plumage is beautiful, and the melo dy of its song is most charming. Mr. Berthold, who also came on the boat, brought with him the stuffed skin of one of the mammoth mountain sheep of the Yellow Stone region.
