JBSF’We are indebted to D. MiTcmtiL, Jr.,
Esq., Chief Engineer on the Pittsburgh nod Steu
benville Railroad, fora profile map exhibiting
the principal Railroad routes between the Eaßt
and the West, completed, constructing and pro
jected. Any person who examines this map care
fnUy cannat fail -to -observe that tbe Railroad
about to. be constructed. from this : oity, West
throughStcabenville to Columbus, opens dat the
ahortest and most direct route between Philadel

We observe by the Philadelphia Pennsylva
nian, of. Wednesday last, that Wm. n. Hope,
Esq., late of the Baltimore Republican, has be
come the Editor and Publisher of that old and
influential Democratic journal. Col.. John W.
Fmuter and bis able and gentlemanly associates
Wm. V.M’Kean and Wien Fobxkv, retire from
.-the concern with many regrets. The paper, af
ter tOrday, will be changed to a penny publics
tion, and is to be improved in many res
pects. ■
- We have always been at a loss to understand
why it is that a Democratic subscription paper
has never been successful in Philadelphia, while
some throe or four large Whig organs have been
coining money there. The Pennsylvanian, al
though an able paper; has never been a source
of profit to its owners; and tho fact: that it is
to bo changed to a penny sheet, is a virtual ac
knowledgment thata subscription Democratic
paperis a faiiurein Philadelphia.
The Whigs, as a party, are always more libe
ral in tho snpport of their papers than the Dem
ocrats.: .It is with shame that we make the con
fession, hat it is true nevertheless. If a Demo
cratic pspeT depends for support upon those who
set themselves up as “leaders in the party,” its
life will be “short and full of trouble.” It Is
the business community who support the daily
papers of our largo cities; and a journal that
is.nat devoted to the mercantile interests, never
will succeed. -
>. It 13 a carious fact that tlio. Morning Post Is
now the only daily Democratic subscription pa
per published in Pennsylvania!

We fiud the following paragraph ia the Bolti.
more Smt of the 25 th ult:
“Difticoltt is the Caoixet. — Washington,
-March 21th.—A difficulty of a serious nature
occurred in the cabinet, to-day, and it is under
stood that tho -President desires the resignation
of Secretary Corwin.”
The cause of this rapture is, as yet, a mystery.
. We hare not heard that Mr. Corwin has done
' anything sufficiently henious, nccording to whig
ethics, to hare himself kicked out of the Cabinet
in an unceremonious manner.
It may he, however, that he is cashiered be-
came he made a mistake in investing his portion
of the Galphjn speculation. It is probable that
the Cabinet and the Accidenoy gave “ Tom the
Wagon Boy/’ - a lecture on tlie folly he commit
ted, investing his share of the plunder in rotten
stock associations, and that ho “took the studs”
on the occasion, kicked ont of the harness* re
fused to pull with them and told them to crack
their whips and go ahead by themselves.. Cor. :
win has spunk, and has still a great quantity of
that original courage whiohinduoed him in early
life to jump into the river to prove to another
hoy that he wosnot afraid to do so. The ex.
■ plonation of this matter will very likely be, that
KHmOTO has dared Corwin to leave the Cabinet,
, and Corwin,; to prove that he is not a man to be
dared, : has, accordingly, left the sinking ship
Of whiggery. • • ■
We will wait with some anxiety for later news
on this, subject, and in the mean time would di
rect publio attention to tho columns of onr Whig
cotemporaries for, more particular Information

have always been of the opinion th

At the meeting held atPhilo Hall,ion Friday
evening, Mr. Keemlo offered tho foltowing reso
lutions, wluch were unanimously,adopted:
■Whereat, .It appearing by the report -and sur
veys now just complete, by Engineers of great
ability and worthy of the fullest confidence, that
“ the Pittsburgh and Steubenville Bailroad Com
pany” oan easily construct n first class railroad
directly from Pittsburgh to Steubenville*, at a
moderate cost, with;moderate grades and cum
lures: : ...
Resolved, That we heartily approve of the ae
tion of the Board of Directors of said Company,
by whioh that road is to bo Immediately placed
under contract for constrnotlon.
Reeolved, That this llnkcf rood being in fact
the extension of tho great trunk of the Pennsyl
vania Railroad leading from Philadelphia, to
Pittsburgh; from the latter. city- straight for
ward into the central and most commanding re
gion of the West, is of indispensable importance
not only to Pittsburgh and to Philodelphia/bat
to the whololiation, as it presents the shortest
and easiest route from East to Weßt, from; to,'
and through tho most commanding points and
districts, and will centralize into it all after rail
road projects and movements in the ragion of
country which it traverses; affording that to ai
most half a nation, by tho aid of cheap tributa
ry roads, ready facilities for the most extended
travel and commerce.
. . Resolved, That for the command-of the trade,
travel, commerce, and resources of the East and
. West, the position of Pittsburgh is by far. the
most important west of the Allegheny Moan;
tains, and that for us to permit this position to
remain nnavailed of, whilst it would refleot npon
onr foresight and energy so far as our interests
are concerned, .would also bo an evidenoe of our
incompetency as trustees for our own- brethren
in every part of our country, who havo a claim
upon us, that we bo use our advantages as to
pfomoto the common weal of all,—that for secu
ring thU general , good of all, wo know of no
euterprizo tnore deserving of our earnest support
than the construction of this great link of road.
■ Resolved, Therefore, that approving tho immo l
diate construction of this road as an object of
great National importance worthy of a generous
ambition, as well as one connected with ourmost
important local interests, —we will give to the
company having ohargo of it our aid in subscrip
tions to its capital stock and oar efforts topro
onro snoh subscriptions by others.
Resolved, Thnt for the purpose of procuring
subscriptions among onr citizens, a committee
from each waid and township through which the
road will pass, be appointed by tho Chairman of
the meeting, whose duty it shall bo to call upon
our citizens to Bolicit their subscriptions.

Very different was the conduct of Lord Castle
reagh—perhaps less generally known. This man,
the prime minister of England, though bated
and.denounced by the liberals, yet stood at the

party. Hie suloido has generally been nttribut

. Sheep should be kept on elevated dry posture,
and when it eon be done, apieee of woodland
should be enclosed in the pasture for the comfort
of i cheep daring the heat of eammer. To be
enccesefal in raising lambs, they should never
come, before the middle or latter port of April.
They will thenethrive without any nursing. I
never suffer sheep to have lambs before they are
two years old. About the Ist of September,
lambs should be separated' from the flock and
put into an early mowed meadow. This will be
benefioial both to .ewes and Inmbe; by so doing
ewes will have time to improve their condition
and aid them in passing the winter months free
from disease. •
In owing hay for eheep, I have put it up rather
green and have ganeraDy used a peok of salt for
each ton, wliioh saves the trouble of salting in
other modes. .
. My uniform practice has been to deposit hay
for sheep in small.borns, .placed on the highest
parts of the meadow, with a shed at one ooraer
to shelter them during severe storms.
No other stock Bhould over be fed with sheep;
if they are, it exposes sheep to injury and loss
of wool. .
In pursuing this conrse l have been very suc
cessful in raising sheep, seldom having lost a
sheep or lamb, or even a look of wool. J. D.
Bark Bound Trees.
The American Ayricaifar/jt ridicules the idea
of slitting the bark of trees with a knife, as Is
very common with many persons, when a tree is
considered bark bound, with a view, of making
it grow. It says you might with the same pro
priety, slit the akin of a bony, half-starved calf,
in turning it oat to pasture in the Bpring, in or
der to add to its growth. Sap to plants is what
blood is to animate. Instead of this course, it
advises us to dig about and cultivate the roots
of trees—scrape off the moss, and wash the
stem or trunk with soap suds, ley, or chamber
slops—and the hark will take oaro of itself. This
is all no doubt true, os experience and philoso
phy provo—and on what safer ground can we
go?
How to Cultivate Beans.
Beans, for early table use, should be planted
as Boon as there is seourity from frost Make
large hills—say two feet over and one foot deep,
and.fill in with good manors to within three In
ches of the top—stamping in the manure as
compactly as possible, and cover the whole with
loom. Around the edge of the hill, insert your
beans, by making holes with your finger, and
cover them carefully. • The beans should be
within four inches of each other, and oeoupy
the circumference of the circle' formed by the
edge of the hill. Immediately in contact with
caoh bean, insert a Btick, say about the thickness
of the thumb, nnd some six feet long.- Crowd it
firmly into tbo soil, and bring the bushy tops of
all the sticks together nt a point exootly over the
centre of the hill, and secure them closely with
a stout elring. If you prefer it,-the bills may
bo mode larger, indeed of any dimensions from
two to six feet, if you ean afford manure and
room. When large hills are made, they have a
very pleasing effect, and appear like cones of
verdure rising from the soil.
Peas. —Peas may bo sown in the same way ns
beans, or both may be trained on a trellis, form
ed by inserting strong posts in the soil, and pas
sing a wire from ono to another—the first within
threo inches of the ground, and the second five
or six inches above it, and so on nntil the trellis
is of the dosired height. Trellisses of this sort
have a very beautiful effect when tastefully ar
ranged. They give on air of grace and.elegance
to a garden, which it is impossible to seouro in
any other way. ■
For tbe Dollar Newipapsr,
Grape-Grafting.
A correspondent, a fow weeks since, inquired
for information respecting the grafting of
grapes. The months for grafting grapes are
March nnd June. Any of the various modes of
grafting will sometimes succeed; but the snrest
way is to graft below the surface of the earth;
let the graft have three or four buds, and be of
last year’s growth; make it wedge-shaped, and
insert it as in cleft-grafting; bind it tight, and
cover oil the cut parts with a composition mado
of three parts of rosin, threo of beeswax and two
of tallow, well melted together; then draw tho
dart around the stack, leaving the second bud
from tho top uncovered. This method, if well
performed, will not fail.
The next best mode is, to sot n well-rooted
plant near tbe stock of vine you desire to change,
cat a place from each, and tie them together;
cover, the parts adjacent with composition—-the
best far exposure to air, beat end moisture is
made of one part of tallow, two parts bees
wax, and fonr ports rosin, wcU-workod to
gether.
If cuttings be plaoed In pots and started, and
then inserted in the vine, a number of kinds
may bo made to grow on ono stock.
_Mr. L Downing recommends that scions bo cut in
winter and kopt buried in a coal damp cellar
until wanted. About the 20th of June, or as
soon os tho leaves of the old vines ere fully ex
panded, cut off the etook smoothly below tbe
surface of tbo ground, split it, and insert one or
two scions in tho usual manner, binding the cleft
well .togothor, and drawing the soil carefully
around the whole, leaving two or three buds of
tbo scion above the surface. Wearing says: “It
is quite immaterial in what: direction tbo cut is
mado, or tbe graft Is placed, excepting that tho
out should bo imoolh, and tbo line between the
bark and the wood mnstcoincidc, at least at some
points; the contact mast be close, and air mast
bo wholly excluded from tbo wound, or, rather,
no moisture should esoapo."
I havo seen large vines grafted, by boring a
hole in tho centre of tho vino -with a “ taper-bit,'’
■ shapeing tho scion to fit tho hole, and covering
oil tho out part with wax. I have not now the
leisure to explain the why and the wherefore of
this method, and will defer it until another time,
It mast be done in March, before the sap starts.

Attempt to Murder.
On Saturday night last, about 8 o’clock, a per
son unknown knooked lightly at the door of the
hoaso of Christian Howßer, in Hempfield town
ship. Mr. H. and his wife were sitting at the
kitohen fire, and Mr. 11. onqoirod ‘who iB there?’
He was answered ‘•afriend." Mr. 11. asked his
name. No name was given, bnt the person an
swered that he wanted in to pay him some
money. Howaer opened the dijpr,when the as
sassin entered, the house—seizing Ilowaer by
the shoulder, saying, “you ore my prisoner, and
instantly felled him with a thick club about two
feet long, and continued to striko him over the
head. -Mrs. H. oome to the assistance of her
husband with a lighted candlo.in her hand, when
the assassin aimed a blow at her with the olnb;
she jnmped-baek and the blow missed her. She
effeotod her escape from the house by a book
door, and screamed murder! murder! at the top
of her voioe. She ran to a neighbor’s house
for assistance, but the male members of the
family were absent at ohurob, and she was un
able to obtain assistance. After the lapse of
some hoars she returned to the house alone,
oxpeeting to find her husband dead. She wits
agreeably disappointed to find him sitting by
tho fire, although bleeding profusely , from the
deop gashes on his head. Mr. H. is upwards of
80 years of age, and received six blows from -
a heavy olnb on. the head. . .There is no doubt
bat that the villain intended to murder the old
oonple and then rob the house. But the escape
of the old woman, and her cries of murder,
frightened him, and ho left.. The old oonple
hod stripped off their shoes preparatory t 6 go
ing tq bed, and the old lady fled from the house
in her stocking soles. Wo learn that hopes lore
entertained of Mr, H.’b recovery.— Qreenebura

Sotar Defeated and Driven out of the Country.
—The British brig Margaret Biley, in twenty
nine days from Pernambuco,- brings news from
Bahia to the 10th'of February. ,
. According to the accounts brought by this .ar-
Bosas has been routed, after n bloody com-'
bat, by the combined forces ofßmzil and the re
volted provinces of the confederacy. Neither
the time when the battlewas fought nor the place,'
_aro mentioned, but it 1b said that four thousand
men fell on one side, and one" thousand on 1 the
other. Bosas had fled with his daughter Mann-■
eltia, and sought safety on hoard of a British
steamer.
The country scat of Bosas, at Palermo, was oc
cupied by Brquiza, tho victorious commander. -
, The following paragraphs are from the Justicia,
a Bahia paper, of the 10th of February:
“On Bundaylastj the steamer arrived from
tiie South, bringing-tho gratifying news of the
downfall of Bosas.
“The Ministry hod not time to forward dis
patches to the different Presidencies, but made
known the important and auspicious intelligence
to his Excellency the Counsellor Franoisco Gon
etaves Martias, requesting him -to communicate
it to the other Provinces of the north. The com
bat was sanguinary—the number killed on both
sides amounting to. 4,000. Many, of our braves
sealed with their Brazilian blood this glorious
.victory. ' The. brute of Palermo,:. (meaning Bo
sas.) with hie daughter Manuelita, took refuge
on board of ah English steamer, and thus was
safe and far from.lhefield of battle. What a vile
and iufamons coward! i
“We hear it said that the German troops vied
in bravery and courage with our own patricians,
land with the loyal and valorous soldiers - of Ur
quiza. Urquiza was reposing quietly at Paler
mo.
“tonglive His Majosty the Emperor. Long
live the patriotic, illustrious, and energetic Cab
inet of the 29th September. tong live all the
Brazilians who glory in this heroio and brilliant
feat of the Brazilian arms.”
Baltimoef. asd Susquebansa Raipeoad.— We
.learn from the Patriot that , the .Baltimore and
Susquehaunaßailroad Company, daring the past
week; negotiated for the sale of $lOB,OOO of the
bonds of the company, being the balance of the
$150,000 whiob the company was authorized to
borrow for the purpose of repairing and stook
ing the road. The price - obtained - realized to
,-tha company 95@95}. Tho company will at
once proceed to stock the road and put it in com
plete repair. These bauds ere a lien upon the
rood, the State and-city havlugi waived their
right for that purpose,, eo that no. better secu
rity eon be had. *

She says—■“ I now call upon him to -come for-'
