DAVID CAMPBELL, Chairman.
BUSINESS OF PITTSBURGH.
Wo have frequently spoken of the coal trade
as one of the groat Interests of our city. Wo hare
rteTef designed to represent it as the greatest in
importance. It is far from it. The iron manu
facture is undoubtedly the greatest Bourco of the
wealth of our city. And we understand that it
was never more prosperous than at the present
time. Engine builders, steel manufacturers,
rolling mill and foundry men, and all the other
manufacturers of iron '* fabrics ” in Pittsburgh
are probably prospering now a 9 well as they
hate ever done boforo. Orders are ia advance
of the means of supply in many branoheß of the
business. And the prospects for the future aro
highly encouraging. The foreign nows, by late
arrivals, are oil favorable to this great interest
of the Iron City. . Manufacturers of glass, an
other great interest of oar city, need no other
encouragement than the abundant orders they
- receive. ■
The coal trade, notwithstanding the very eeri
ous losses it has suffered of late, mil bo on the
whole profitable to this community for the lost
twelve months. About 120 coal boats were lost
in the last run, containing probably a million
bushels of coal, worth a hundred thousand dol
lars. Yet the high price at which the balance
sells in the lower markets mil make the returns
about equal to ordinary runs of coal. TMb cool
trade is very unoertain in its obaracter. Great
losses and great profits to individuals are report-
ed. While some havemetwith disastrous losses
- others have realised fortunes during the present
year. Wo have heard of ono company that can
not have made less than $25,000 of dear profit
from the trado this year; whilst others have lost
largo sums. We have been informed that ono
company had three pairs of boats in the midst
of the memorable storm on the Ohio river, in
Which so many boats and lives were lost, yet not
one of those boats were loRt; and they are now
at Now Orleans, where almost fabnlons prices
are obtained.
We have but one remark to mako in conclu
sion. The mode of carrying onr coal to the
South-western markets, to bo safe and perma
-nently profitable, must yot bo by tow-boats and
barges. More capital will be required for the
business, but iu that way alone can the frequent
lossesbe avoided, and cortain profits secured.
The trado is too valuable, and the losses too
freqnent and serious to be left much longer to
mere “lack and chance.”
The excitement in relation to the railroad dif
ficulties at Erie, seems to be subsiding, both nt
the*East and West of oar State ; and the hope
seems to be now generally entertained that the
war will soon bo ended. It is not improbable
that the prompt ootion of oar legislature in re
gard to the Franklin Canal Company’s railroad,
has done mach to moderato the tone of the
' newspapers that have heretofore been most
abusive towards oar State. They have discover
ed that snch unmeasured abaso huß awakened a
just resentment, instead of alarm; and has
resulted in giving to our State the control of an
important link in the line of - the Lake Shore
roods. This iB not to destroy that road, or ab
stract travel and trade by the Lake Shore route.
.It merely gives to Pennsylvania the control of
a part of that line of roads within its own
borders.
Competent persons have been appointed as
agents of the State, to take charge of that piece
of road, and provide for its continued use, as
heretofore, for the acoommodation of the pub
lic, East and West. The track of tho Erie and
North-cost railroad iB changed to the four feet
ten inoh gaage, and a connection made with tho
Franklin Canal road, by which business will go
on, without; obstruction. The public generally
will then have no further interest in the matter,
and Congress will havo no farther occasion to
consider the subject.
Tho only unsettled question then will bo be
tween the late proprietors of that road and the
State of Pennsylvania. That our State will bo
just towards one oan doubt.: As mat
- ters stood, before the late act of forfeiture, great
injustice was done to the commonwealth, and to
its own improvements and pnblio works. While
the Pennsylvania Central road was paying a
three mill tonnage tax to tho State for the privi
lege of making and working a road in competi
tion with the works owned by the State, a Now
Fork and Ohio company, was nsmg the soil of
Pennsylvania for the working of a railroad in
competition with both, froo from all tonnage du
ties; without any compensation; and without
any authority oflaw whatever. Tho tonnage
tax on the Central road last year amounted to
over $86,000. Such was the tax upon -our own
road, while, a Now York road, over our soil, was
free from any such tax. We are not now con
: tending for the propriety of such a tax on other
roads; bnt certainly, if such a tax is to be im
posed, it should not be upon our own citizens,
and our own roads, while foreign capitalists, and
. their unauthorised roads, are exompt If our
. contemporaries in tho West will look calmly at
this view of tho matter, they will see "that this
. was a wrong to which this State was not bound
to submit.
In the settlement of the controversy between
the Company, whoso road is forfeited, and the
State, justice to both parties must be done; and
joatice to Erie not forgotten in tho meantime

Expenso or Opening Streets In Pittsburgh
IV o were called on a few days sinco by a gen*
tlcman from Clinton village, and informed that
an impression prevailed to some extent, in that
part of the county, that an effort was being
made to widen certain streets and alleys in Pitts
burgh, and charge the expense npon tho county.
From the data given we presume the rumor aroso
out of the late attempt to open Hancock street
from tho upper end of Wood street to tho Alle
gheny river. Buildings were to be torn down
and a largo expenso incurred in effeoting that
object; hut no attempt was made to saddle the
expense upon the county. Tho damages were as
sessed, cud, under tho provisions of nn.act of
Assembly, those damages were charged upon
property owners along Wood and other streets,
supposed to bo bonefitted by the opening of the
new street. The law has since been repealed,
and the project for the present abandoned. Bat
at no time was it sought to make the people in
tho country bear any portion of tho expense.
There a number of the streets,
laid out in tho plan of the city district, not yet
opened; and many of oar oitizens contend that
the county should bear the expanse of opening
some of them. Some of them are designed so
thoroughfares through which the market wagons
tho coal teams, and the travel generally from tho
country reach the markets, warehouses and busi
ness portions of the city. It is nrged that tbo
peoplo of tho county Bhould boar a portion of
tho cost of opening these streets, on the ground
that they arc as much for tho besefitand accom
modation of tho peoplo of the country ob of tho
city; and are, in fact, as mnch county roads as
the highways that traverse the townships, and
are built at tbo expense of the county. The city
helps to build tho county roads; and, in fact,
pays mora than half the cost. Should tbs coun
ty help to build enoh of the aly roads as equal
ly benefit city and county ?
THE NEW SCHOOL LAW.
Wo havo received from Dr. MoCllutock a oopy
of the bill, reported by him to the Senate, to re
model and amend tbo school laws of tho Com
monwealth. It contains many excellent provi
sions. It is no party measure, of oourso. It
provides for a change in the mode of managing
tho pnblio sohools of our oity, and places them
upon a similar plan to that in force in tho city
of Philadelphia.
Among other things, in this oonnootlon, is one
provision which we do not like. It provides
that each Ward of the city shall eleot six direc
tors, who, after eertain preliminary measures,
shall all act together as a board of controllers
for all tho Wards. There are nino Wards in the
oity. Tho hoard of-controllers would then con
sist of fifty-four members; a number entirely
too large, in our opinion, for harmony and effi
ciency. It would form a body more than half
as largo as the House of Representatives at Har
risburg, and more than one-half larger than the
Sonato. Two or throe from eaoh ward would be
a sufficient number, and would despatch busi
ness moro speedily, and with a more saintary
sense of individual responsibility. Wo would
suggest an amendment in that part of the bill.
Some change in the management of the schools
of Pittsburgh is desirable, and will soon become
necessary. Whether tho [plan proposed by the
bill now before the Senate will be acceptable to
our oitizens remains to be seen. We will pub
lish, in a few days, so muob of the bill ns relates
to the subject.
The Old Beewemt and the New Mission

ing. The stock is said to bo now worth .$llB a

We nover remember so many citizens of Chester

presont time. They have kept us busy for Borne
time past printing bills for their sales of person
al property, and soveral of them advertise in our
paper of this week valuable stock, to which wo
invite particular attention. They are amongst
our most enterprising citizens, and we regret to
loso them, but oannot doubt they will do better

ImpoutaSt Bailboad Moyehbkt We learn.
that a project isdn contemplation, and, indeed,
that steps sre abont to be taken bylhe parties
interested, to consolidate the railroad companies
comprising the lineßof route between Baltimore
and Harrisburg,'-trith a view to a more effeo
tiveand coonomicol administration of their ope
rations.: Tbe.companies constituting this line
are the Baltimore and Sneqnehanna, York and
Maryland, and York and Cumberland —the for
mer in this State and the two lattefin Pennsyl
vania.
To bring about this result, it will require leg
islation, both in the. States of Pennsylvania and
Maryland, with the concurrence of the oouncils
of onr city, and we are informed that the pros ■
peots of its accomplishment are most oncoarag
ing. Under the new arangement money can be
raised on the credit of a consolidated loan to
complete the road to Snnbnry without delay,
and to build the branch road to Canton, and, al
so, to doable-traak the road as fast as the trade
demands Buch an eiponditure. By persons fa

estimated that $60,000 a day are exponded in
that city by foreigners, tho average number so

valley of Genesee. In 181 G, by reason of a re
markable cold summer and a very short crop; in
1830, by a somewhat unpropitions season and
neglect of agriculture for purposes of trade and
speculation, compelling the large importation of
brosdstuffs from Europe; and in 1864, by rea
son of short crops in Western and Central Eu
rope, and the war between Itussia and Turkey.

Floub.—We are glad to learn, says the Bos
ton Traveler, that tho dour dealers, some of
them, arc reduced to tho necessity of receding
from the high prices which they have attempted
to establish for that Btaplo artiolo of food. We
understand that there are not less than one hun
dred and sixty thousand barrels of dour now in
tho hands of dealers in thiß city.— Ledger.
Tho prospects of farmers are bright, and
land likely to increase in value. The Boabcster
American says i “ Farms all over this county
are now worth in the nelphborhood of $lOO per
acre, and in the adjoining counties the cose is
much the same. Near this city, they sell high
er. Now that breadstuffa have gone up, we may
look for an advance in land also.”— Ledger.

and beyond xll doubt, that Rma’s PxtfcOLxuw is a roedidne
of so commjti value, not only as a local remedy in IfcraZpf

Internal remedy, inviting: the Investigating physicians, as :

ThcfaUcirir.g certificate is copied from apqpcr published at
Syracuse, N. Y, and hears date August 2,1852, to which is
also appended the ccrtijlcateof Uncelebrated D. Pl P&ot, Jtf.
of Syracuse; .
This may in truth certify, that I hare been eo badly af-
Meted with Serofala for theiastOßvenyearstbatmoßtof the
time I have been unable to attend to any kind of business,
and much of the time unable to walk and confined to my
bed, and have been treated nearly all the tirnn bythebest
Physicians our country affords ;1 occasionally got some re
lief, but no cure, and continued to grow worse until Dr. Foot'
recommended me to try the Petztueum, or Bock OIL as eve
rythlng else bad foiled. I did so without frith atflrstj but
theeffeci was astonishing; It threw the poison to the surface
at once, and lat once began-to grow hotter, and by using
Sevan bottles I have got a cure worth thousands of dollars.
ÜBS. NANCY M. DABKER*
This may certify that I have been acquainted with Kicr’e
Petroleum, or Bock Oil, for more than a year, and have re
peatedly witnessed its beneficial effects in the cured indo
lent oleers and other diseases for which. It is recommended,
end can with confidence rwhimgi end It to be > wor
