and the Whigs may as .well-make up their minds,
to that result,at once. They will undoubtedly
fight hard—/or the spoils-, but wo intend to whip
them decently, and have the spoils ourselves, ;;
Democrats form your clubs as soon os possible
and send tho names to ns on or before tho Ist

season, as it affords.a variety of scenery which
nuiot be pleasing to every lover of naturo.
.Between Alliance andAYellsviUe, tlio work on
the Railroad, is of the very best description, ful
ly equal to the Northern end of the road. The
bridges over Yellow Creek are of the most sub
stantial character, and tho big cut at the Summit
is a master piece of work.. Tho .samegentle-
wanlv and efficient Conductors who.commenced
on the Clovoland and Pittsbnrgh Railroad, when
it first opened, Messrs. Clixanii and Curtiss,
arc still in-the employ of tho Company. They
are perfeotNapoleons in : their line of husiness.
It is o fact Worthy of being placed on record,
that since the opening of the Cleveland and Pitts
burgh Railroad, there baa not been an accident
of any description' along its line, whereby hu
man life has been put into.jeopardy,: although
ono hundred and ten thousand passengers have
passed over tho road. It should also ho men
tioned that at none of the nineteen stations be
tween Cleveland and*VTellsville, can liquor be
obtained.
Tho beautiful Forest Citt never looked more
beautiful hnd loveiy than it does this spring. It
is the most Edema place to be found this sido of
eternity; and were hot all our hopes and fortunes
centered in Pittsburgh, wo Bhould certainly take
up our abode in that Moiel Oily for the balanco
of our days.: The people of Cleveland are justly
proud of their oity, and they take n pecnliar
pleasure in showing if to strangers.,. .The city is
increasing rapidly in population, and thcro ore
tnauy now store-rooms and dwellings now in
progress of erootion. - Its dostuiy is upward and
onward. . .
Cleveland can boast of as too Hotels os can
be found in ahy cityin the Union. The “Amer
ican," kept by that prince of.landlords, Wa.
Miitobd, is in all respects a magnificent public
house. He has attentive and obliging assistants,
who are devoted to the interests of their employ
er. The "Weddell House,” kept by C. 8. Butts
& Sox, and the “New England House,’.’ under
the management of the same gentlemen, are well
managed and popular houses. These gentlemen
are: also. the proprietors of “ Butts’ Hotel," in
New York. The “ Forest City Hotel,” kept by
W. A. Sjuth, fronting the pnblio square, is a
delightfully situated, commodious and well reg
ulated establishment; and the “ Franklin House,”
under the management of C. Patuick fit Son, is
a most excellent hotel-

—Hon. J. E. ITeotli, Commissioner of Pensions,’
slates, that where a parly die 3 before tho issue
of liis land -irarrant, under the act of 28th Sept.,
1850, the right to it dies with him, unless there
be a widow, or children who arc minors at the
time of the passage of tho act. If he left a
■widow, tho application maybe renewed in her
name; or if none, then in the names of such
minor children. If there bo neither widow nor
minor children, no right- rest in any one. The
act of 22d March, 1852, is silent as to the right
of the widow or children to renew tho applica
tion if the party dies before obtaining the war*
rant. If the elaimiant dies after the issno of
tho warrant, the title thereto rests in the heirs
in the same manner as real estate, and can be
assigned only by those who could convey a tract
of land descended from the anoestor.
Bound and Tongcf.-tied, —The New. York
Evening Mirror, an ardent advocate of Fillmore,
and a talented and racy shoot withal, has the
fallowing: :
“Gen. Scott never,- ns yet, wrote a letter on a.
political question that did not essentially weak
en his position. He and his advisers Bhow vnso
sagacity in keeping silent. :But is not this si
lence-constrained?: Was Gen. Scott ever known
of himselfto decline anepistolarytiltin potitios?
In foot does not his itohing lie cspecially in that
way ? Tho General is ready to write ; bnt Se

to put dangerous weapons into the old veteran s
hands. Theyhave bound and tongue-tied him.

despatches from WashingtoT\ that ■ the applica
tion by the Michigan Southern Railroad Compa
ny, for an injunction against thoMiohigan Cen
tral Company,; brought before . the Supreme
Court of the. United States, has?been refused. — ;
This, we presume, eettlcs the; question as to the
right of the latter to build and to use a track
from-Miehigan City to the Illinois State Line,,
under the Salem end Now Albany Charter, and
will, wo trust, be ,the end of legal controversy
between the two companies.
: Legislation- in'Massachusetts.— Among the
acts' passed-by the late Legislature of Massachu
setts, were the Maine liquor law ; an act calling
a State Convention, ifthe. people, ratify the call;
a law authorizing aliens to hold real estate, re
lieving a large class of the inhabitants from a
most depressing incapacity, Treason, rape and
arson are no longer capital-offences, and murder
remains the only crime punishablo with- death.
A law similar to that of Maine was also passed
hy which execution is delayod for a year after
sentence. ■
The Editor of the True Virginian pub
lished at Fairmout, Marion county, Va,, says
that the good pcople of that plaoe arc now with
in sound of the engine whistle on the Baltimore

onr neighbor? of Baltimore, let them come as they
may, and to afford them every evidence in oar
power of a cordial welcome.”

Tiio Lancaster (l’a.) Examifier publishes from
the Columbia Spy; the article (which wo copied)
in relation to tho testimony taken by Messrs.
Buchanan and SootV in the Colombia Blare
Case, anil sayß: ■ ■ ,
TCo nre informedby one of the counsel engag
ed in thia case that the above is a "very imperfect
abstract of the testimony taken, wholly omitting'
eome of the rao3t important points. It was shown,
among other things, that Ridgely was to have
$4OO if he succeeded in restoring the slave to
his maßter, and notWny if ho.failed; and .that
i When the.pistoi went off, Snyder, (Kidgely’s ns
sociatc) was on the opposite side : of tho_ negro,
and wonld : havo been almost inevitably bit if the
ball had not lodged in tho negroe’s back. The,
probability of Ridgely’:! wilfully taking tko life
of tho man he then saw for tho first time in his
life, at ndossytnhiravpf .sipbi-.'lbealdea running
the risk of killing hialdSsomate-rto .say nothing
of huviog to stand a trial for murder—is It mat
ter about which our readers con form their pwh
opinions. Tho gentlemen, engaged in the inves
tigation are said to bo of the opinion that the
shooting was entirely accidental and uninten
tional..
Immediately after the ooourrenoe, Mr, Ridgo
ly expressed his determination to surrender him-
Bolf to the civil authorities, but was advised by
the citizens of Columbia not to do so; and in
pursuance of this advico ho returned to Haiti:
more.
It is also but proper to remark, that the Ma
i ryland Commissioners—two ofthe moßt eminent
lawyers in tho State—expressed their determi
nation to adviso the rendition of Ridgely if it
could ho shown that ho had been guilty of any
criminal act.

Who will it be ?—Fitzgerald’s City Item, Phi
ladelphia, in asking this question relativo to the
Bcmocratic Candidacy for the Presidency, says :
“ Bat who trill have the Democratic nomina
tion? Who ought' to have it ': Need we, when
we apeak to Pennsyltraniana, ask tho question l
Who ought to have it but a Pennsylvanian, and
what Pennsylvanian can get it but James Buch
anan! Wo look upon hia nomination na certain
—and if by any chanceitis frustrated, it will be
by aomo treachery in our own State, among oar
own people; and wo believe that any men upon
whom will light the opprobrium of such a ma
noeuvre will not be able to get rid of it to their
dying day. Should any cabal defeat Buchanan,
we think his successful rival will not be General
Cass. No—Kilkenny cat like—they will destroy
each other, In that event, then, who wilt it be?
Rbvtxces or Besevolest Societies. —The
revenues of tho Bible, Female Guardian, Tem
perance and other similar societies of New York,
numbering eleven, amount in the aggregate to
$1,374,699 43. •
Creditable as is the foregoing exhibit of the
liberality and humanity of tho ago, yet it is sta
ted by the “Golden Buie," a respectable weekly
paper, published in the city of New York, that
the revenue for the present year of tho Odd I'd
l-otc’s Aeseeiaticm, “which quietly attempts to
cany out the simple creed upon which it is foun
ded, ‘to visit the sick, to bury the dead, to com
fort the widow, and to educate the orphan'” ex
ceeds hi amount the aggregate of all the above
associations.
Rats ran Potatoes. —-The farmers in the vi
cinity of Philadelphia arc said to bo plantingan,
nnusuol quantity of potatoes this year. One
individual, who last year had some thirty acres
in potatoes, from which ho sold three thousand
bushels, netting over one dollar per bushel, has
this spring put in one hundred acres, and his
neighbors hove increased their planting in about
the same proportion.
A Relic asd ax Omex.—ln digging tho holes
for the posts of the otaging from which Kossuth
was to addrcss'the citizens of Buffalo a twclvo
pound cannon ball' was dag up from a depth of
about 2 J feet. It bad the onmistokablo marks
of British manufacture, and was undoubtedly
fired from Canada daring tho war of 1812. So
say the Buffalo papers. The ball was presented
to Kossuth.
ggp The case: of the United States va. Win. S.
Brown, at Washington city, was called up on
Saturday morning last in tho Criminal Court and a
nolle prosequi entered by the District Attorney.
Thus says the Telegraph ot that city, after
three trials, in whioh the juries have failed t?
agree, this tedious case is dismissed, and Mr.
Brown stands before his fellow citizens an inno
cent man.
PoTATpns a Profitable Cnov.—Mr. Robert
W, Lewis, near Charlottesville, Va., : planted
last year on a picco of laUd less than an acre,
upon which he had put fifty loads of niaunro,
Bix bushels of-mercer potatoes, from which ho
raised three hundred bushels of very superior
potatoes. Last week ho sold a portion of them
at $1 per bushel.
Using Cancelled Postage Stamps.— Within
the lost ten days the post msster of Utica, N-
Y., has detected three persons who have used
post stamps which, have been used on letters,
and made two of them pay tho penalty of-their
fraud on the deportment. Tho penalty 1b fifty
dollars for each offence.

Messrs. Editors:— Among the many persons

to promise him a triumphant election. He is
just tho kind of man wo want to watch over the
important interests of our district. A man pos-:
sessed of thonbitity, industry and will, to watch
over and protect the rights of our citizens in
tho halls of Congress. With Judge Hepburn as
onr representative, the 21st distriot would take
its proper position. As it has been represented
for years past, it has been second ■to the most
obsouro districts in tho State, and totally unnoti
ced and almost unknown, except when tho ayes
and nays were called, to the representatives &om
ether parts of the Union. We any again give us.
Hepburn to vote for, and our word for it, that
when tho next Congress meets Allegheny county
can have tho proud satisfaction of saying that
she has the memborfromPennsylvauia. Publish
this Messrs. Editors and oblige
Messes Editors :—I was pleased to see in the
Post of yesterday, the name of Samuel Fleming,
Esq., mentioned in connection with tho next

tho explosion, and was blown up. Rolling in the
dust, with his mutilated steed, nod rising without
a wound amid tho plaudits of his soldiers, he
calmly demanded another horse and continued to
brave tho grape shot, and tally into the thickest
Of the battles.”
At the Lioking county (Ohio) fair a few weeks
since, a new feature was introduced, that we
should like to sco becoine general, and commend
to tho consideration of the managers of agricul
tural sooletics., Tho Ohio Cultivator says:
‘•The moat exciting feature bn the first doy’B
exhibition was tho competition for the three
premiums offered for the. .ladies’ riding horses,
which in ' the end tamed upon tho ekill of the
riders themselves. Three .'horses were entered
hnd made their debut within tho ring at an easy
pace. Mrs. Seymour of Madison,. and Mrs.
Marble of Newton, in elegaut riding costume, at
first led the ring with decided advantage. Miss
; Hollenbeck of Hanover followed, riding the
horse of N. B. Hogg, in a walking dross, but be
ing a girl of true knigbtiy grit, soon dexterously
reigned in her horse, and by a few well applied
blows of Tier riding whip, brought up his metal
to the gauge of her own, and then giving him
reign, dashed forward, and taking the inside,
snch a wild Arab flight Buckeye nover saw be
j fore. On, on (lew tho beautiful steed, and the
I thousands cheered heartily; the winds played
the mischief with her petticoats, but her victory
was complete. Tbon a series of evolutions, our
vettings and contra par showing what tho coun
try girls can do when they get the reins into
their own bonds. The premiums wero awarded
j to the Indies by acclamation.”
As a rule it may be remarked) that noisy wo
men do much less' than they seem to do, and
quiet women often do more. But itdoes not fol
low that quiet women are motive; on the contra
ry, six out of ten are indolent, and work only
on compulsion.: Indolent women have their good
points, and tho most valuable of these is their
quietness. It is a great luxury in domestic life;
but perhaps it is a luxury .which is too expensive
for a poor man, unless’ ho can get it combined
with activity. The wife of a poor man, no mat
ter What his profession or position, ought to bo
aotire in the best sense of tho word. She ought
to rule her house with diligence,; ;but make no
boast of it Her managing powers ought to bo
confined to her own house, and never bo sent out
to interfere with her neighbors. Her activity
should be kept healthy by being exercised upon
important matters ohiefly, though the trifles must
not bo disregarded. A woman who will make
herself unhappy beoause’! the: Usual custom of
cleaning the house on Friday is, on a particular
occasion, inevitably infringed, is inadequate to
peroeive the difference between, the lesser and
the greater. Some active women who pride
themselves on theiy housekeeping, seem:tp for
get that the objeot of keeping a house is, that
human beings may ho accommodated init. Their
sole idea seems to be. this, that; ttie objeot of
keeping a house is that the house may be in a
certain form arid order; and to the maintenance
of this form and order they sacrifice the comfort
the house was established ,to secure. Suoh ao
tive women are pests to society, beoause they

A Case of Cowsctence. M
In a certain “ Ladies Moral Reform Society,
existing not many miles from the banks
tain river, the members were required to sign »
pledge not to “setnp,” as it is termed, or do
anything else that might bo supposed to havAA
tendency, however remote,: to immorality".'.■ One
evening as the President was calling over - the
nomcs; to know whether each member lad kept,
her obligation,. a beautiful and highly respeota-.
bio young lady burst into tears, and on: being
questioned as to the cause, said she feared she
had broken the pledge.
“ Why, what havo yon done ? ” asked the Pre
sident.
“ Oh! ” sobbed the young lady, “Dr.
kissed me the othernight when hewaited-on mo
homo from meeting.” . .
“ Oh, well that is nothing very bad,” said the
President, “ Ms kissing does not make it that
you havo broken the pledge;” ;
“Oh, that isn’t theworat of it,” exclaimed
the conscientious young lady, “Ikiased him back
again! "
Women may talk of their inherent rights. ns
much as they please, but they cannot overcome
nature—they may preach .about tho equality ot
the sox, but they cannot overcome fact and or
ganizations. Men and oaks were made .to be
twined, and women and ivy were made to .twine,
about them; Though an equality were, to be es; r
tablished" between calico and oaesimere to-mor-.
row, it would not be a week before all the officers
would be men, tind all the sojdiers women.
Females are perfectly willing to go ahead, pro
vided the men go first. Set fire to a steamboat,
and not a yard of dimity will budgS till corduroy
sots the example. So long ns the men cling to
the vessel, tho women will ding to the men.—
But if the men plunge overboard, chemisettes
plunge too. As we said before, reformers may
prate as they may about equal rights, but cannot
alter the regulation of. God. It is as impossible
for women to oat themselves loose from men, ns
it is for steel-dust to free itself from its attach
ment -to a magnet. •
Thuef. Bad Bovs Shot.— Three wicked youngs
ters were shot in Brooklyn, on Thursday, whero
they had been stealing from and annoying a
captain and crew of a schooner iyifig at thewharf.
Tho boys stoned the vessel as it was. leaving for
sea, which so exasperated.one of tho crew; acol
ored man, named Johnson; that ho got a double
barrelled gun, loaded with-dnek Bhot, and tired,
at them. Throe of the boys were wounded, two
of them very seriously. - Reprehensible as was
tho conduct of tho boys, this was going too far
in punishment, and consequently Johnson and
three of the crow were arrested, the former de
claring that he did it “by direction of the mate;
and only intended to frighton them.”
Katheb Ceemionioi-s.—A formal old gentle
man finding his horse uneasy under the saddle,
alighted and called to his servant in the follow-,
ingmanner: ..
“ Tom, toko off tho saddle whioh is. upon my
bay horse and lay it upon the ground; then take
the saddle from the gray horse and put it upon
my horse; lastly, put the other Baddle on the
gray horse.” The fellow gaped all the while,
and when his master had concluded,-asked, “if
he didn’jgyant the saddles changed.”

Hj-Dyapepaia, or Indigestion, is that kind
of derangement of the stomach whicli Interferes with
the conversion of the food into chyle.
Tht Symptomt of Dysptpfia are: loss of appetite, nau
sea,, beau-burn, flatulency, acld.fceiiil' or inodorous
eructations, a gnawing sensation m ine stomach when
empty, great costiveness, chilliness, paleness of the
countenance,lair«mr, la3sltnde, unwillingness to move
about, lowness or spirits, palpitations of the heartland
disturbed sleep. These symptoms, vary in different in
dividuals and constitutions, andin many cases bring on
kidney disease.dropsy* liver complaint,and a debilita
ted condition of the whole body and a shattered state of
the nervous system, that renders life' burdensome.
Dr. RadclitfJs Alkaline SHguHtvSitur* ate peculiarly
adapted to the deranged condition of thestomach above
alluded to, and if taken peTseveringly, will restore it to
& healthy condition. ■ These Bitters are made of some
of the most valuable mate rials ni the Materia Medica,
and are prepared in & peculiar manner, known only to
the proprietor. They do not contain any particle of al>
cohoLandaro perfectly safe in their operation on the
human system. The most inactive and aepraved condi
tion of the stomach is often relieved by one bottle—all
sourness, wind, pain, and : deprekslon of spirits, are en
tirely removed.- How can a manbe in health when that
great reservoir is diseased? Correctthe morbid stale Of
the stomach by taking these Bitters,and Dyspepsia; with
all its grim horrors, will fly from you.- --h . • :••
