ear- reading matter wild be found on each
PAGE OF THIS PAPER. '
routes for carriers.
There are several good routes to bo given out
to the carriers of our Evening Post, where money
can be made by industrious carriers, who are
willing.to take hold of it and-make a business
°f it.. Tiic Fifth ward is not yet supplied with
a regular carrier, and can be made vory profit
able. ■ Some others about equally good can be
bad.
Our circulation is already large: and we are.
determined to hare the wholo of tho two cities
supplied, and half tho neighboring Boroughs and
Townships. We send a large number to Bearer
county, and other distant placeß. Wo can truly
Bay that our Bucoess, thus far, is fully equal to
our expectations; but we shall not be satisfied
till our sale is five thousand daily. It can bo
done.; and we believe will be done, as soon as
good carriers in sufficient numbers are found.
Slews and. Facts ftom alt Quarters.
Bot. Dr. Al’Lean, President of the Lafayette
College, at Easton, Pa., has received n dona
tion of $lOO,OOO to ftidow that institution.
The Merchants’ and Mechanics’ Bank cf
Oswego, it 1b said, has suspended payment.
The Buffalo, Brantford and Goodrich Railroad
was opened to Brantford, C. W., Jnn. IS, amid
firing of oannon, &c.
-Henry R. Sergeant, of New Boston* N. H., 23
years of age, fired a revolver fonr limes at a
Miss 8. Janes, killing her instantly, and then
shot himself, dying in ‘six hours. A love
affair.
The report that tho daughter of Chief Justice
Taney, and a daughter of Edward Everett, were
on beard tho steamer San Francisco, is denied.
Bayard Taylor, lately returned from China, is
lecturing in New Jersey.
In Philadelphia there are -15 different omnibus
lines, besides 373 coaches.
There arrived at Philadelphia, during., tho
year 1853, 17,796 emigrants ; at New York over
800,000.
Tho amount paid or due to vessels, for freights,
in San Francisco, during the single month of
November last, was $685,557.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Co. is erecting a now
line of telegraph along their road for the exclu
sive right of the Company.
Hon. A. Q. Brown has been elected U. S. Sen*
atar from Mississippi.
The now Captain General of Caba promises
great reforms in tho administration of tho

trade.
According to the letter from Key West, twen
ty-oight vessels were wreoked on the Florida reef
daring the last year, and twenty-nine arrived in
distress. The estimated value of theße vessels
and their cargoes was $2,082,500, of which only
about $330,100 was tho loss of underwriters.
The amount paid for salvage was $174,350, and
for repairing, &0., $155,760.
Pennsylvania and Ohio Railroad.
Tho Gazette is quito in earnest this morning
about having tho above railroad extended into
tho oily of Pittsburgh.-
That extension, and the connection of that road
With the Central road, will have to bo provided
for soon, or travel and trade will seok other
roates between the East and West. The Penn
sylvania roads have now three great rivals to
contend with for the commcrco of the. West:—
the Western rood through Canada to Detroit:
the Lake Shore road; and the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. And nothing bnt the most con
venient and expeditious conveyance of freight
and passengers by our roads will win a full share
of that commerce. A break between Allegheny
City and Pittsburgh, that delays travelers some
two hoars, .and subjects all freight and travel to
considerable nbneecssary expense, is bad policy,
and will doubtless be injurious to tho interests of
the roads, and to oar city.
There is.no reason why tho connexion of these
two roads should be longer delayed, and trade
and travel relieved from the tax occasioned by
the gap of half a mile between Allegheny and
t Pittsburgh.
At the meeting of the stockholders of tho 0.
& P. R. R. next week, wo hope this question
will bo decided, and tho connexion -formed as
soon as possible.
The people of the West have cause to complain
'of Pennsylvania policy in this respect. Anil this
cause of complaint should bo speedily removed.
AMUSEMENTS.
Our city has never perhaps afforded so many
opportunities of winter evening’s amusements
ns at the present time. ~ Concerts and lectures
have been frequent, and the attendance has
proved that our citizens love such treats. Wo
were well pleased on Monday evening with the
concert of the Philharmonio Society of onr city.
Sorely with snch musical talents in onr midst,
we need not seek for that whieb, (though scien
tific and harmonious, but warbled in an unknown
tongue) is from abroad. We liked all the music
of .that evening—those heavy well tim'd choruses
aroused all our musical taste and feelings, and we
could scarcely sit still as listeners; tho variety
of soloq, duetts and quartettes was well chosen. We
liked that solo tenor. Ite seemed to speak his
words to be understood, which wo consider im
portant in singing. The overture by a gentle
man and lady was well performed -, and the duett
by Shaw, “Arroyed in clouds,” was just what
the audience liked. The voices were sweot, like
the music: each solo was well sang; and wo
could have listened with pleasure much longer
to more of the same strains. We hope to have
an opportunity to hear again from the P. Sooiety.
Wo are glad to be able to say that the Hall
was well filled, and a disposition was thus mani
fested to enoonrage tho cultivation of home tal
ent and taste in music.
MISS tiDCT STONE.
This lady created quite a “ sensation” in our
city the post week; having appeared before the
public in her Bloomer costume for four succes
sive ovenings, os a lecturer upon Woman’s
Bights. She speaks.with case and without the
slightest appearance of timidity. She would
haYo women assume more of the lucrative em
ployments of men, by which she can be inde
pendent if left to ber own support, and that of a
family. It capacitated, sbe thinks they ought to
enter each of the professions and claim their
fees—and many such like things which our la
dies would be likely ta shrink from nndertaking.
Almost every body was amused at her sayings,
bat we bavo not heard that ehe mode any con
verts.
Fer our own part we would ever wish to
emulate woman in her own beet proper sphere;
and that in our humble opinion, is in making
home comfortable and pleasant.
ERIE.
Onr neighbors of Erie are fast forfeiting all
sympathy from any portion of Pennsylvania, by
their outrageous conduct. Tho arrest of the
United States Marshal while in the discharge of
his duty, and the open defiance of the mandates
of the Conrts, can find no justification. We
have never justified their violenceneither will
wa keep silence under the gross calumnies
against aH Pennsylvania, by the papers of other
gtates, on account of the conduct of tho Erians.

®@*Tho following extract from tho St. Louis
Intelligencer, wo consider worthy of publication,
as another evidence of the desperate efforts on
tho part of New York to secure the trado of the
West by circulating lies overithe whole western
country, in to.bsV-'great; and jlreaded
rival, the old 'Keystone State; For a time the
fraud may be partially successful. But . truth
and sober sense will soon prevail over-falsehood,.
Public Opinion on the’Erie Affair..—We
find tho following excellent article in the St.
Louis Intelligencer of tho 7lh inßt:
••We rcoeived lost night tho following dispatch
from on extensively known and. reliable gentle
man of Now York city, with instructions to pub
lish the same
•‘ The leading merchants of New York city
are making arrangements to deliver goods in
Wheeling at dess freight than . Philadelphia,
during tho interruption, at Erie.’’
- We are really gratified at this intelligence.
We hope the course of notion marked out by the
New York merchants-may bo imitated by-mer
chants, business- men and travelers tbronghont
the country, North, South, East and West.
Let no citizen of any other State—particularly of
nny Western State—put. his foot on Pennsylva
nia soil, or spend one penny with a Pennsylva
nia farmer, manufacturer, merchant, steamboat,
railroad, canal or stage company, tavern keeper,
barber, or hack driver, or seller of candies, cold
pies and pea-nutß—so long ns the atrooitles at
Erie, in that State, are uphold or tolerated;
Strike at the pockets of tho illiberal and nnrrow
souled upholders of the Erie infamy; Tor then
you will pierce their hearts! The sympathy of
Philadelphia with the Brie rioters is patent and
avowed. Tho sympathy of tho Gevcraer of that
gracious Commonwealth is eent by eleetrio wires
to cheer tho Erie ruffians. The-tone of the
press of that State is corrupted by the some hor
rible influences;And jail that sympathy rests
on a•• dollar” basis. The interruption in the
line of tho Lake Shore rend at Erie, compels tho
travel and trade of tho West, in avoiding the
Erie war, thetuuntits and delays, and expenses,
tn passing the break in the line that is enforced
at Erie, compels that travel to take tho railroad
from Cleveland to Pittsburgh, nud -go by the
Central Pennsylvania Railroad to Philadelphia,
iostead of proceeding by Dunkirk and Buffalo to
New York.
Such is the only apparent motive of the con
duct of the Eric sympathisers of Philadelphia.
It is to drive reluctant travel through the State
of Pennsylvania, and make it pay tribute to
Pennsylvania cities, hotels, railroads and mer
chants! It is a mean, mercenary and selfish
motive; and the 'sympathy’ generated for their
riotous brethren at Erie is altogether u ‘dollar’
sympathy. Therefore; wo say, back at
tho same point—the pocket.—the home of the
dollar, and bring tho sympathisers totbeirsonSßs.
Tho medicine, energetically administered, will
cure. Hands off, feet off, money, off? Don't
touch Pennsylvania soil. By the way, there is
one other way to reach thoBC Philadelphia sym
pathisers with the Algerines of Erio. Lot all
Western members. of Congress feel instructed
by the united, tho unanimons, the imperative
voice of-ail their constituents, without regard to
sect or party, to act, vote aud speak in a body,
now and for alt time to come, for the creation of
a United States Mint at New York City—or for
the removal of tho United States Mint from Phi
ladelphia to New York. Give those Pennsylva
nia ‘sympathisers’ no quarter. If they will rob
the West at Erie, let them not fatten on our com
mon property anywhero else in their domain.’’
The editorof the Intelligencer, notwithstanding
his wrath,jy candid enough to make known the
cause of his sudden nod furious zeal. Ho states
that it was a despatch received from a New York
merchant, informing him that arrangements were
made to carry goods to and from New York to
tho West without tho aid of Pennsylvania roadß.
Now, docs not every Western man see and know
that this whole thing is a desperate effort of
New York merchants and railroad men to induce
all travel to toko New York roads, and all trade
to come to New York. The Erio difficulty is
seized upon as a pretext; yet it is well known
that a Pennsylvania judge has imprisoned many
Erie rioters; has granted injunctions to prevent i
the destruction of the Lako Shoro road; and that i
every thing has been done to compel submission |
to law, ns promptly as usnol in such eases. ’ The !
wholo difficulty would soon be settled but for tho |
angry feelings aroused in our Stuto by just such j
articles ns the St. Louis Intelligencer has publish
ed, at the command of n New York merchant.
We have no fears <for our old Commonwealth.
The people of . the West will not be slow to dis
cover the base New dork conspiracy that aims a
blow at our interests by fraud and falsehood,
despairing of success by fair and honorable
competition. Such scoundrolism will soon be
understood and Bcorncd.
We do not sympathize with the Erjons ;
we believe them wrong. Rot our courts thus
far bare done their duty, and will do it to the
6nd.
If our Legislature should adopt any measures
unfavorable to the Lake Shore liuo of roads, it
will bo occasioned ia a great measure by the un
measured and infamous abase of our Common
wealth, by a few editors, East and West, who
write very much as though they were paid for it
by New Yorkers. ' ~ ■
Wo have no fears for tho result of this
conspiracy. All sensible men know that, local
disturbances, violations of law, or riots, are not
charged upou the whole State, within one corner
of which they may occur. And all men con
perceive that, when it is sought to stigmatise our
whole great Commonwealth for n riot inpno re
mote corner of it, there must bo some sinister
and bose design in view. The design is appa
rent, and base as it is manifest
Observe, the St. Louis editor says bo received

PORTRAIT O? A MaN DESTINED 10 A", LONG
liiPß'—tot me now be permitted to delineate
the portrait of a man destined to long life. lie
has a proper and well-proportioned stature,
without, however, being too tail.* He is rather
of the middle size, and somewhat thickset. His
complexion is not too florid; at any rate, too
mnoh ruddiness in youth, is seldom a sign of
longevity, His hair approaches rather to the
fair than the blaok ; his skin is strong, but not
rough. His head is not too big; he has large
veins, and his shoulders are rather round than
flat. His neck is not too long; his abdomen does
not project; and his hands are large, but not too
deeply cleft. His foot is rather thiok than long,
and his legß are firm and ronnd. He has also
a broad, arched chest, a strong voice, and the
faculty of retaining his breath for a long time
without difficulty, In general, there is a com
plete harmony.in all his parts.- - His : senses are
good, but not too delicate ; his pulse is slow and
regular. His stomach is excellent, his appetite
good, and hie digestion easy. The joys of the
table are to him of importance; they turn his
mind to serenity, and his soul partakes in the
pleasure whioh they communicate. He does not
eat merely for the sake of eating; but each meal
is au hour of festivity; a kind of delight attended
with this advantage, in regard to others, that it
does not make him poorer, bat richer. He eats
slowly, and has not too much thirst. Too great
thirst is always a sign of rapid self-fipnsumption.
In general ha is serene, loquacious, active, sua
oeptible of joy, love, and hope; -but insensible to
the impression of batted, anger, and avarioe.
Hib passionß never hecomo too violent or de
structive. If he ever gives way to angerr, he ex
periences a youthful glow of warmth, an artifi
cial fever, without an overflowing of the bile.
He is fond, also, of employment, particularly
calm meditation and agreeable speculation; is
an optmist, a friend to nature and domestic fe
licity; has no thirst after honor or riches, and
banishes nil thought of to morrow. —Art of Pro
longing Life.
From the Rio Grande.— Hates have bee
received at Galveston, from tho Rio Grande, to
the 24th ult. The yellow fever bad not abated
qt Brownsville or Motamoras. About fifteen
deaths are reported daily in those cities. There
was a rumor current in Brownsville, that orders
have been received from the government,- sus
pending the building of the proposed fortifica
tion on the Rio Grande until the result of the
negotiations now going on between the Ameri
can and Mexican governments, for the purchase
of the six States of the Sierra Madre, should be
definitely settled.
A Newspaper in Nebraska.— The publication
of'a newspaper called the Nebraska Democrat,
has been commenced at Old Fort Kearney, in the
unrecognized territory. It strongly.! urges the
passage of the territorial bill by Congress, and
says that, Bhonld this he done now, a flourishing
city would immediately spring up at the place
where the Democrat as published. Tn the United
States Supreme Court, a tew days ago, an attor
ney at law was admitted to practice, whose resi
dence was officially announced in the proceedings
at Nebraska.
Melancholy Coincidence.— -The ill-fated
steamer San Franoisco cleared from New York
Dooember 17th, and we find, on examining the
Shipping List, that on the same day the follow
ing ships cleared, all of which have met a simi
lar fate: .Commerce, Singapore and Borneo, be
sides ship Saxony disabled and put into Halifax.

There wo thousands, of jtfrsons who aro otflicted

then, for all those puttering with any form of “Rupture of
