E©, We find the followingfact in the Louis
ville Courier of the 21st. If it hasany founda
tion in truth, the steamboat law should regulate
other matters besides boilers and Bafoty-valves.
It appears, from the, statement of- the .Courier,,
thatthe G. W. Kendall had great difficulty ,ip
getting through the canal, beingiaidon with raiL
road iron and having two barges in tow. The
barges got on-the rocks at tho head of the canal,
and there was hut little prospect of pulling them
off, gome excitement prevailed on the levee in
regard to tho bpat, and on inquiry it was ascer
tained that five or six of tho prew were prisoners
in tho hold, with the hatches fastened dojra. It
appears that the boat had been rather Bhort
handed, apd Was 20 or 25 days out from New.
Orleans, and theprew, or a portion of them,
-wautedto - leave the boat at f'crthiud; but they
were beset, it was not stated by whom, and ter
ribly beafoni and dragged on board the boat and
imprisoned in the hold. George Gardner, a Ger
man, one of the crew, states that Jio had been
beaten and compelled to work as dromon all
night long, instead of the regular, four hour
watches. Ho says ho shipped OP the boat to go
to Cairo, to which point she was eighteen days
out. The whole statement shows that tho hands
were treated with heartless brutality, and up
hope the officers will be held to a strict account
ability for their conduct.
■ HovrU T»Ue* tn Sew York,
: The New York Day Book takes down the flag
of Daniel Webster, and soys!
“ Scott is Nominated —The story is told—
Wiuficld Scott is the Whiginominee for Presi

cured! “ I will not vote for Scott,” is the decla
ration of at least half the whigs wo meet.”

Tho New York Courier and Enquirer, also a
Webster paper, is greatly dissatisfied with tho
nomination of Geo. Scott. That paper begs
leave to differ with the Whig Convention, who
prononnoed, it says, Winfield Scott, ns more fit
for the Presidency, than Daniel Webster, The
Courier ■ has always believed the contrary—it
still believes the contrary. It says tho sober
conviction of the country agrees with that jour
nal, and all the ballots of the Convention cannot
dispel the conviction.

‘:. Pursuant. to public notice, a very largo and 1
respectable meeting ofthecitixeiisof-Wssbing
ton and Allegheny, counties in the
Town Hall, at Canonsburgh, on Thursday after
noon, June.24th, 1852,f0r the purpoaenf taking.
measures ,to bring about the construction of a
Railroad between Pittsburgh and Washington.
On motion of Thomas Watson, Esq., . Wit?
LIAM,MoDANIELS, Esq.,.of Washington conn,
ty. was oalled upon to preside over the delibera
tions of the meeting.
The following gentlemen, were elected Vice
Presidents, viz: Alex. Bowmitn, John Bowf.b,
Esq.; John Mubhat, Nathan Tannehill, John
Hats, Esq., Gen. John Pause, C. H. Pauison,
Esq., John Johnston, and David McConnell.
John Saueman, Leeky--Harper and Richard
Letherman were.ohosen Secretaries.
Upon taking the chair, -Mr.- McDaniels stated
the objects of the meeting in some brief and ap-
propriate remarks.
Dr. John Weavee then moved that a commit-
toe of five be appointed; to draft resolnitons ox
pressivo of tho Bense of the meeting, whereupon
the chair appointed Dr. J. Weaver, C. H. Paul
son, Wm. Moorb, W ji. Park, and Huoh Wilson,
said committee.
, During the. absence of the oommitee,: the Hon.
'John Ewino, of Washington, addressed the meet-
login a very able and eloquent speech, in which
he set forth the: great importance of constrnoting
a Pittsburgh and Washington.
He showed that the road would not only enhance
the value of property along the route, but would
bo of incalculable benefit to farmers, merchants,-
produce dealers, and all Others who do business
in Pittsburgh. He waa.beeaid, the friend of .
all works of internal improvement) and although
ho had subscribed to the stock of the Hempfield
Railroad, yot he then believed) and still believes,
that a Eailro'id from’Washington to Pittsburgh
dircot, was a work that recommends itself ,in a
peculiar manner to the favor of the people of
Washington county. Nr, E. hoped that the citi
zens of Pittsburgh would also take on active part
in providing pjeans for the construction of this
road, for without their assistance and co-opera
tion, the workmußt fall through. Ho also thought
that it would be to the interest of tbe Central
Pennsylvania JJaflyoad Company tp subscribe to
tbe stock of the Pittsburgh aqd Washington
Boilrbad, andhopedfhat measures w<;nld he
taken to bring the matter to the attention of the
Dircotoraof the Central Hoad. <?■ , ; ;
Mr. Ewibg’s remarks, of which the above is a
mere skeleton, were listened to with marked at
tention, and were warmly applauded. When he
concluded, tip committee on resolutions, through
their chairman, Dr. Wbavsu, ‘be fol
! lowing report, which was unanimously adopted:
Whebeas, The Hempfield Railroad is now.ln
urooeas of construction, and will certainly be
completed in a seasonable time—leaving a dis
tance of between 40 miles. remaining to
t complete the Railroad eonneiion cetypenPitts
! sbdrgh and tbe Ohio River, at Wheeling; thoro
fore* ■ *■
1 . Kailspd, That in the opinion of this meet
ing, it is high time population of Chartiers
VaUcy and contiguous country, oiad the friends
and citizens of Pittsburgh generally, should wake
up to the importance of making a vigorous effort
to compl.cto this link in the chain of Railroad
Connexions Jjetw ecu the East and West, and thus
secure to Pittsburgh the trade nu<f travel which
naturally belong to her as the groat commercial
martof thlsreglon. ■ : -
2. Resolved, That the propoeed road would
possess the advantage of entire practicability:
mid even of easy and cheap construction, na it
would be located along a level valley—requiring
but little grading and presenting no serious phy
sical barriers. , ~.. , . .. .
3 . That the road ip desirable and
necessaryfirst, for the focal frods, rupning
through the wealthy counties of Allegheny and
Washington, and along thefCrtile and productive
valley of Chartiers, already in a high state of
cultivation, and 'susceptible of. a much higher,
when proper facilities are afforded to get its pro
ductions intoanarket—and abounding in almost
inexhaustible beds of cca’ of the finest quality,
which could then be furnished at piUeburgb, on
terms advantageous to both buyers and sellers.
4. geiolvtd, That this road contd not foil to
secure a vast amount of trado and travel to .and
from tbo great West—connecting, as it would,
with the Ohio river at Wheeling, by means of the
Hempfield Railroad, and with the groat West by
means of other roads, concentrating at that point
and which arc cither completed already or now
in process of construction. -..... . .■■■-
5. Resolved, That should the Hempfield Rail
road be speedily completed to its proposed ter
minus in Westmoreland county, that it would hot
supply tbe desideratum in this trade, inasmuch
as it passes by Pittsburgh—a point through
which U largo proportion of the trade and travel
from East to West, wouJd naturally and much of
it mutt necessarily pass. Hence tins road would
still be desirable and profitable; first, on account
of its local trade; second, as a connecting link
in the great chain of Railroads, connecting the
East and WcsJ; and third, as. it direct and unin
terrupted channel for th.? already great and ra
pidly iaoreaßing trade, which Pittsburgh herself
cornea on with the West and South West.
6. Resolved, That for these reasons, wo believe
the proposed road presents; flattering induce
ments £6 capitalists generally, and to the citizens
along the road, mid to Pittsburghers particular
ly, to invest their capital a,nd embark with hear
ty zeal in the road and secujre'tts advantages at
as early a day os possible.
7. Resolved, That a committee of seven be
appointed to confer with the off cere and Direc
tors of tho Pittsburgh and Steubenville Railroad,
to ascertain on what terms a connection can he
formed with said Company, at tbe nearest favor
able point,
, 8. Resolved; That a pojpmitteo of eight bo ap
pointed to present to the tfoohoila of the City of
Pittsburgh and Birmingham, the claims and: im
portance of the Pittsburgh andWashingtonßaH
road, and 1 urge those corporations to assist in
its construction; and also to confer with, the of
ficers snd (Erectors of the Central Rend, and
urge said company, In like manner, to lend its
aid to this work;
9. Resolved, That a committee of fy.onty be
appointed to Bolioitsubscriptions to the Btook of
the Pittsburgh and Washington Raitroad. ; .
The resolutions were fully disoussed by tho
lion. J. H. Ewing, L. Harper, C. U, Paulson,
i,Craig Rltohie, Bausman and others.
The ohalr appointed the fijllowingnamed gen
tlemen a committee undor the 7th resolution,,
