Greeley headed an article in the Tribune, not long ago, 11 The Rascals at Washington lt was the language of a blackguard, but for once, wo will borrow tho- expression, with a littlo al teration, and apply it whero it is most manifest ly deserved; to wit, to some of tho editors in’ Now York city. Wo refer to their baBO attempt to injure Pennsylvania interests by slander and falsehood. A more corrupt and venal press no city ia tbo world possesses, than is found in the city of New York. Wo propose to state a few facts to show that a concerted system of lying is adopted, designed to prevent the negotiation of Pennsylvania railroad bonds in the East and in Europe, for the purpose of preventing tho completion of Pennsylvania railroads: and, in general, to do all possible harm to our Common wealth. The pretext alleged is tho Erie mob. A lying pretext it evidently is, as the slanders are continued, when the Erie difficulties aro set tled. We do not refer to the entire newspaper press of New York. There are Borne honorable excep tions. Bat a portion of them, at the head of whom-is Greeley of the Tribune, ate playing this .base game. ... Two or three days ago tho Tribuns represent ed the stock and bonds of the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad as greatly depreciated in the New York market, and gave as a reason that eastern capitalists would have nothing to do with Pennsylvania securities. The roguo who wrote it did not know that not one foot of that road is in Pennsylvania; and tho quotation of its stock la false, besides. Not long since, another New York paper stated that.no bond and stock broker in that city Would suffer a Pennsylvania bond to remain in his office over night. Just aboat the same time some bonds of a railroad in thiß State were sold on good terms in-Now York. Another New York paper stated, about the same time, that Pennsylvania bonds and stocks Were entirely unsaleable in Europe, and advi ooi European capitalists to have, nothing to do with them. About the same time that that statement was made, and advice given, the London stock mar ket exhibited the following faots. Wn will take the ffgureg from the ciranlar of Anthony, Dorr & Co., of London, dated January 24, 1854. We aro indebted to oar friend Wu. A. Hill, Banker, of this city, for the tables accompany ing the circular, for which ho has our thanks. On the 24th Jannary, then, tho Pennsylvania Central R. R. C per cent, bonds sold in London for 92@93, urith ths dividend off. At tho same date the seven per cent, mortgage bonds of the New York and Erie Railroad sold in London for 88. These last mentioned bonds it.will.be observed bear 7 per cent, interest, and are convertible into stock at Jhe option of. hold ora. The Pennsylvania Central Railroad bonds bear bat 6 per cont. interest, and ora not con vertible. At the same date tho bonds of tho oily of Pittsburgh sold for 83, while the bonds of tho city of Now York found no buyers at all. Aboat one month ago an English circular re presented the bonds of the city of Boston, and tho bonds of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad, at tho two most active and saleable stooks in tho. London market, at that time. ' The-Now York and Erie Railroad is now over nineteen dollars in debt; more than the Pennsylvania’Railroad cost; yet the latter is the most volnablo road of the two, asapubllo accommodation, aucLas. a source of revenue to the stockholders. Bach are a few of tho faots that give -tho lio direct to tho malignant slanders of New York editors. It is no wonder they dread Penn sylvania competition; but it is a wonder that Wcßtern people.can bo found to believe their falsehoods; .or that Pennsylvanians can be found to patroniso their lying sheets. PRICKS OF PROVISIONS. Each arrival of a steamer at New York, of late, has the effect of bringing down prices of ,flour and some other kinds of provisions. This foot would indicate that it is not the deficiency of crops that is relied on for a farther rise, bat the expected news that war is declared by Rus sia against England and Franco. Now, in the first place, we do not think that the Czar will be in haste in making such declaration. Be has not yet completed his preparations, and will temporize and ask for explanations, and gain as mack "time as possible. When ho is ready for the conflict, it will commence either by formal declaration, or by actual collision of the fleets or armtbs. All the indications are that war will be the resalt; bat we cannot see how that should occasion a great rise in the price of provisions immediately. There will be no moro people to feed ;ln faot, not sa many in the countries where the scarcity prevails. . In the meantime, spring is approaching, and in a short time the lakes and canals will be open ed for navigation, and there is no doubt that the qaantitics of flour, wheat, and other, provisions going to .the seaboard will then bo considerably increased. No great advonoe in prices can be expected in the face of that more- abundant supply. - We claim no gift of prophecy, bat wo venture tbe suggestion that, at present prices, non is a very good time to sell wheat and flour. RAILROAD DEPOT. The Gazette states that it is now certain that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company will locate their depot on Liberty street, near the foot of Third street. A.largo tract of groufld will be required for the purpose. A late Actof Assem bly authorizes the company to take the ground, and have the damages or valae of the property taken, assessed by a jury. It is a pretty harsh way of purchasing-property. They have had two more fires in Louis ville. On Saturday morning, two dwellings were destroyed, and on Sanday morning a stable and offiee were consumed. Somo of the papers think that they were Bet on fire, and advise more vigi lance on the part of the police. t Heavy Fraud ontThb Government. —An im porting firm in. Philadelphia has been detected ia cheating tbe Government through false in voices. '. The fraud amounts to some, sixteen thousand dollars. . *' . There is no change of any consequence to note in tho money market of our city for the last week. Money is becoming somewhat more plen ty, as the returns are reooived for the very large quantities of provisions, and all kinds of pro duce sent eastward by tho railroad, v ' Notwithstanding the increased capacity of the railroad for business, by the Avoidance of the planes, it is still taxed to its fall capacity. In about two weeks, should the weather permit, the eanel will be opened for business, and from present appearances, jp&th the railroad and ca nal will have abundant employment dnring the Bpring months, in carrying forward tho vast quantities of freights that are to be sent to the seaboartT FEBRUARY 17. It is evident, from tho remarks of tho Now .York newspapers, that a combined and concerted effort, and an effort doubtless well paid for, ia made at present in that city, to destroy the credit -and-prevent’the sale of Pennsylvania railroad bonds in the Eastern-and European markets. Lies, of course; are freely reported to, and the motive not denied. It is designed, if possible, to prevent tho completion of Pennsylvania raU roads; and thus prevent onr State becoming a dangerous rivol of New York in the trade be tween the East and West. Hero is an evidence of it, taken from the New York Tribune a day or two since. When next Greeley nscs the word tl scoundrel ism," he would do well to apply it to tho writer of this extract: 11 Cleveland and Toledo [ehares} sold at 05, a further ad vanes; Cleveland anil Pittsburgh at 84, one of the results of beluga Pennsylvania concern. Capitalists are cautious ia regard to everything located in that moheympathizing State.” 1 ' The Tribune of course veils its base design un der a specious plea. It contends that the coun try ia too much indebted already. Whntover of truth there may bo in that, tho editor of the Tribune never thonght of it till the Now York roads from tho Lakes to tide water were com pleted. The New York and Erie Railroad Company is in dobt only about 519,000,000, and its bonds sell for below par, while tho Pennsylvania road bonds are worth a premium.

A correspondent of the Lexington (Va.).Ga zette gives the particulars: of a fearful oocur reuco on lames river; ftt-Balcony Falls, on Sat urday, the 21at of: January: •- The oanal-boat Cliuton,'Capt. Woo’d, with about, fifty persons on board, principally negro hands,: on their way to: the Central railroad, at tempted to proceed up the-river to Buchanan. JustsafterjpaasinjtPthesiNorth-River bridge, the tow-line broke', and the boat drifted down the stream. The river being verymuoh swollen, the bottom could not be reaohed with poles, and con sequently the boat was completely at the mercy of the current. . About a hundred yards above the mountain dam, five persona jumped off, and attempted to swim ashore, hut three of the num ber were drowned—a Mr. Paine, of Fredericks burg, and two negroes. : , . *.= . .By the skillful management of the captain, who field the tiller, the boat leaped the dam in safety, and rapidly approached the the Little and and Great Balcony Falls, and the Tobacco Qills, places which, tbo writer says, formerly made the boldest heaTt quake under, favorable circumstaUoes., As it passed withina foot of the White-Book, the captain and four or five persons jumped out, and were left on the rook in tho middlo of the river, the waterragiug around them. The boat harried by, and escaping many dangers, hung lightly on a rock near the Tobacco Bills. . Persons on shore now undertook to rcsouo tho ■five or Bis men cling to the White Book. A batteau was dragged some distance, and launch ed in the river, the water still rising, and the wind blowing a perfect hurricane through the gap of the mountain. Frabk Padget, on ex perienced boatman,, and Messrs; Matthews and MoCollogan and two negroes embarked in the batteau, and at great personal risk succeeded in bringing the party safely to shore. By this time the water had risen - enough to float the oanalboat again, which was carried , headlong, through the Tobacco Hills and caught on a email island- below. On her passage, one of the negroeß on board bad leaped upon a fiat rook, whore ha stood without his coat; wet with spray and shivering with cold, imploring help. The batteau, under command of. Padget, could not reaob him, and proccodod on toward tho others, ell of whom were rescued. The question then arose whether the man on tho rook could be saved. The brave-hearted Padget thought he could, and the same-men and two more embarked with him to make the at tempt... Just as they reached tho rock, and the man bad jumped on board, tho batteau- struck and was crashed liko an egg-shell. Five of the party leaped upon thrrock; one clang to an oar and drifted to land, but Padget and tbe man they had gone to reßcuo were drowned. • Some time elapsed before another battean conld be obtained. , At last it arrived and was launohed, hut a negro suffered it to be carried off, and it was dashed to pieces on tbo rooke. It was now dark, and no other boat was at baud. Thus tho five men on the rook were ne cessarily left there all night, exposed to the drenching spray, and freezing weather. Baring the night another battean was brought up and placed -under tko command of an- old ferryman: named Sim Evans, : Next morning, contrary to: the expectation of atl, the men were found to be alive, though several of them were badly frost bitten; and all’bf: them-werebroughtTto land, amid the shouts of the epectatore. .

The sudden attack .on Tifiis. by .20,000 mountaineers, is not only the most-recent incident of a Strug, gto which has lasted for half a century, but the first episode of a grand drama, In which the wholo_ world takes an interest. And so publio attention has turned spontaneously towards these Caucasian summits, Which Mithridates alone was able to conquer, and which now hold in check all the. forces of Russia. Schamyl is benooforward tho most energetic auxiliary of the Porte, .in its heroic, effort' for independence. Schamyl has been often compared to Abd-el- Eader, and there is, in fact, some analogy be tween tho two Isadora. Both arrived at the chief command by the prettige of oar religions inspiration, moro'-even..than by their courage and personal ability. Both-have had for their object the enfranchisement of their race, and the fusion of the tribes which compose it nnder the authority of their sole chief. Bat Abd-el- Kader was only hadji, and, he was obliged to borrow from civilization a part of his resources, .to maintain himself so long. ' Sobamyl aimed* higher: he set himself up os the second prophet of Islamism; he declared himself sent by God to complete the work of Mahomet,and particu larly to fnso into one the two great divisions of Omar and All; he persuaded-his followers that Allah .dictated to him his will in periodical visions: and in that way he succeeded in creat ing around him an indomitable and devoted body of troops, whose blind pbedienee. does not give away before any danger, and whose religions enthusiasm is capable of the greatest efforts. Schamyl is at present fifty-six years of age. He is a man of middle sire, but of a determined ap pearance, : His private life resembles that of Abd-el-Kader, being sober and austere, and di vided between prayer and action. Hie career as a warrior began in .1831. His predecessors in the war were—first, Scheick Mausonr; then Rhasi Mollah, and then Hamsel Bey. The death of this last gave him, at the age of thirty-seven, the supreme authority over the Mussulman tribes of the Caucasus, and then began that straggle of twenty years, which Las already cost Russia more than the. subjugation ,of Poland.” , gig?* A waiter was examinedtho other day be fore one of our courts.
