Tbe Man Found I
The ridiculous controversy which is going on
concerning the heroes of the .Whiskey Insurrec
tion, between 11. M, Brackenndge, and Neville
B Craig, is likely to last os long as the Trojan
war! The weapons,which tha learned Thehnps
are using were borrowed from the armory of St.
Giles, odd very much that they will not
be returned to the Billingsgate ladies in os good
a condition ns when they were obtained. How
the war will terminate, we cannot predict, but
we suppose it will he like the end.of tbe famous
fight of-the,grimalkins of Kilkenny.'
■ A quid nunc friends of ours .toldns a story* Uie
other day, which may, or may not, be true, but
we will let our readers have it for what it is
worth. A wager was made between a couple of
gentlemen that not a single person could be
found in tbe city who had read either Craig’s
or BracUenridge's epistles. A. W. M , Esq.,
who held tho stakes, made diligent enquiry for
two days, and when he was about to deoide that
no such curious Individual existed, some one in
formed him that Dr. S- r had been studying
the controversy. lie hurried off to tho Doctor
nod asked if he had read tho ortioles in ques
tion. Tho Doctor answered .that he had, but
he feared they would bo the death of him. He
had been chosen by the two historians to deeido
upon tbe literary. merits of their compositions,
as well as their claims to victory; but tho task
had destroyed his digestion, and had made oth
er serious Inroads on his health, so that ho
thought bo would bo under tbe necessity of re
signing n. lucrative ofiico which-he hold, connec
ts l with the sanitary regulations of our city;
and be had just got a bit of news that added lo
his distress: Brackenndge had bought of Kay
seventeen reams of fools-cap and as many gross
of steel peas; and Craig had been heard to de
clare that he would have tho last word, if it cost
him as many articles os the number of tales in
the Arabian Nights! Of course M decided
tho wager that one man was foaml who had read
Ibo commentaries on Ibe Whiskey Insurrection.
We hope, for the peace of tho city, that Ibe
contest, now going on, is only for tho purpose
of trying the powers of the historians to wield
■ the weapons of fat. Odes; and that thememory
of their ancestors will Only be colored with ink,
and not incarnadined with the blood of the
••Neville connection" and the Brackouridges.
pay* There is an articlo In the Caret to of yos
tenlay, signed “ Fames! ” noticing out refer
ence to the extraordinary course of the Police
Committee, loappomtiog the Watchmen. Now,
wo cannot help thinking that "Earnest is 11 in
fun.” He must be : for we have yet to see or
hear of the man who justifies the course of tbe
Committee, in their efforts to give tho Muyor
an iqjbecilo Watch. What is it to Mayor Ouih
rie whether the members of tho Watch are
Whigs or Democrats t Nothing. Ail ho wants
to kdotv, isi 'that-they ore competent, and will
bo efficient. Wc are not SWatjc that many of
tbe new supply will answer these qaadihentibh?,
and, from this impression wc were induced 'to 1
object to the contemptible conduct of ibo Com
mittee.
IThat responsibility do the Coramitec incor
in tbo oyca of the citizens In presurving the
pcaco of tho.city ? None at alii They are, it
is true,'appointed to act with, the Mayor in se
lecling-Ca efficient Watch for that purpose; but
tho present year they appear to have devoted all
their talents (?1 to thwart his honest efforts nud
bring the city back to tho state of chaos in
which Mayor Guthrie found it when he went
into office.
This writer compares tho conduct, of Mr.
Guthrie to that of Barker, when that distinguish
ed individual popped into the watch-house a re
cusant Committee, who would not agree to his
vagaries- “Earnest" may think that by doing
SO he degrades Mayor Guthrie; but, iuonr opin
ion, the only person who could bo degraded by
such a comparison, is tho anonymous scribbler
who volunteers to make it. The upright courso
of Mayor Guthrie is too well known to the peo
ple of Pittsburgh to be effected by su;h attacks
ns tho editor of the Gazette has permitted to ap
pear m his columns.
Deficiency In Pork.
The Cincinnati Price Current gires a state
ment of the number of Hogs packed, in a great
portion of Ohio, Indians, Kentucky, town, Illi
nois, Missouri and Tennessee. Tho returns are
not entirely full, hut they show a deficiency of
116,885 when compared with 1850. When the
statement is complete we shall publish it.
At St. Louis only about 50,000 head of hogs
have been packed this season, being more than
one-third less than the lastseosou. The num
ber Of barrels of Pork put up was 6,000 ngninßt
9,000 last year.
The firm of Asbbrook & Co. sold all their
stock on the 26th, tho product of about 8,000
hogs— lesß than about half the "proportionate
quantity of hams, say 10,000 shoulders at Gj c;
10,000 Bides at G.j 0., and from 6,000 to 8,000
hams at 7c.
The IrUditgencer says it is the largest sale' and
the highest prices paid this season. The sale is
about equal to 6j o. round. The same house
was offered $l3 for all their Mess Pork, and 7} o
•for No. 1 Lard.
Rates of Toll for l 853»
Tho Canal Commissioners of Pennsylvania
have published their Toll Sheet for the year
1852; It differs but littlo from that of last
year, except in tho rates of toll charged upon
emigrant passengers.; These aro to; be oharged
iit the'rate Df $2 each from Philadelphia to Pitts
burgh, or less than one-third of a cont per mile,
while tho oars conveying them aro to pass toU/rte.
This will afford inducements for emigrants to pass
through Pennsylvania,- and still further West,
instead of occupying the large unsettled tracks
ia'the western port of this State. Other pas
sengers will bo charged two cents per mile, as
heretofore. •

44 Black Swan” by some folks, Bang in Boston,
a few evenings siocc, before au auJicnco who
paid a dollar a head to hear her, and even in that
oity, usually so complaisant to a dark complex
ion, there is no denying that she made a failure.
The Beo says of her :
“The persona! appearance of Miss Greenfield
is not very attractive. She is,a stout-built ne
gress, not quite so dark as tho .Northern blacks.
Sho was modestly attired, in o blue and white
brocade. Sha wore uolbing ou her head but
what nature gave her. Wc are . told that sbo
makes no pretensions to be an artiite, and that
sho contemplates o visit to Europe for the pur
pose of finishing tier musical education. But
■setting aside all Ibis, we are really at a loss to
discover any peculiarity in the 44 Black Swan
that should entitle her to bo considered a “mu
, great wonder.” It is truo that she has a great
’iOThjfoss of voice, and con sing 44 Down among
the dead men," as well as sho causing 44 Ah,

of Hopsburg for, a reconciliation ; and a tate ru

appears to verify ■ this view. The conduct of
Austria towards this still powerful noble, is hut
a type of her policy towards the other mandates];
tiho has made up her-imud,.it is clear, to-pur-,
chase all tho great Magyar mobles, rind thus
unite the Hungarian aristocracy,.mn.-solid-body,-,
against Kossuth and the middling classes. —
Hereafter, consequently, Hungary, if. it is freed
at all, must bo freed as a republto. - The house
of Hapsbnrg is really playing the 1 game of the
great exile, though it does not; see this at pre
sent. It is true that this policy of Austria, in
thus conciliating the .great proprietors, may,
for a while, delay the resurrection of -Hungary;
but that it can finally prevent it; no one can be
lieve who has faith in human progress or in tho
justice of lieaveu. There is.too-much tendeuoy.
just now, both hero and in England, to despair
of liberty in Europe, but we should remember
the lines of Bryant, which are not less consol
ing than beautiful: - .

The eternal years of tied are hers.
