PITTSBURGH: THURSDAY MORNING: MORNING POST JOB OFFICE). We would call tlio attention of MERCHANTS AND BUSINESS MEN to the fact that we have Just received from Philadelphia o number of fonts of new Job Type,and are now prepared to fill orders fbr Cards, Circulars, Bill Iluads, Paper Boohs, Posters, and Programmes for exhibi tions. AU orders will be promptly filled. WO PAPER TO-MORROW. All hands about our establishment keep thanksgiving, and wo shall consequently issue no paper to-morrow. A BID FOR THE LEGISLATURE.^ Some of the Philadelphia papers have revived the oft defeated project of erecting “ An Execu tive Mansion 1 ’ for the nse of the governor of the State. Sock a house they would have built and furnished a,t the expense of the State, for the residence of'thc governor daring his term of office, like the “ Whito House” at Washington. Sach a hoase as wonld satisfy its projectors, would cost at least a hundred thousand dollars. They would no doubt begin with a smaller ap propriatioo, but succeeding legislatures would be asked for more. By the time the house was completed it would be necessary to increase the governor’s salary to about $lO,OOO a year, to enable him to occupy the " mansion” with be coming dignity. The furniture would have to be renewed for oaoh new governor elected. The Philadelphia papers say that if the legis lature will remove to Philadelphia, and make that city hereafter its permanent place of meet ing, the oity will voluntarily contribute a large portion of the expense of the "mansion.” There we have it. The Philadelphians consider their great city the State, in foot, and all the balance of the territory mere suburbs. The seat of government must bo removed to the oity. Bat, lest some iguorant law makers should be too stupid to be convinced that Philadelphia ought to rule the whole- State, a bribe is offered. Give us the legislature, aud we will give you a governor’s house. With the legislature in that city, what wonders oonld be performed, financially and politically. U. 8. Senators in any quantity coaid be supplied by the city. The money of the State could be usefully employed by its merchants, and the balanoe of the State oould have the privilege of building railroads, if they all pointed towards Philadelphia, and not other wise. The pay of the members would have to be largely increased, to enable them to live in that city/and enjoy ail its Inxnries and fol lies. It is easy to see what an undue and danger ous influence that city would acquire over the government, if looated there. The whole pro ject smacks of extravagance, and of a local am bition that entirely overlooks the rights and in terests of other parts of the State. The legis lature sits quite Dear enough to that city now, and is quite enough under its influence. It is lOO miles of Philadelphia, but five hoars ride. It is 250 miles from Pittsburgh ; and by the best route, 500 from Erie. The project of removing it still further from the western and northern portions o‘ the State is an absurdity ; and not only absurd, but iniquitous. Wait till the State is out of debt before projeeta aro urged that would undoubtedly increase the publio expense, and be of no possible benefit. We need no governor’s hoase. There are plenty of men willing to be governor, and rent their own hottse. Philadelphia will have to bid higher, or wait some time longer, before becoming the seat of government. OYSTERS I OYSTERS tt The New York Evening Post , of the 21st, says: u The oyster trade U picking up vary, teat, and large non ben of men ar* agaio employed in tbe bodneM.” Every one is satisfied now that they are as wholesome this year as ever, and they sell as fast as ever. C. L. Malttfy, whoso depot is tinder the St. Charles Hotel, in this city, has wisely prepared for a large demand on Thanksgiving day. He has jast received a large supply of fresh and ex eellent oysters from the east, which he sells oheap. Thanksgiving day is not a "fast day.” Its design and mode of observance are qnitsthe op posite of that Something good to eat, and plen ty of it is the rale for Thanksgiving day; and certainly nothing better or cheaper can be pro-* Tided than a oan of Maltby’s excellent oysters. Cyras Reed, Esq., who has charge of the depot, will supply all orders on the shortest notice, and in the most satisfactory manner, as we have late ly learned by experience. Maltby’s oysters are good and cheap. Call and get some. DIMMER AT THE CITT HOTEL.. We happened to see, lost evening, the bill of fare for the dinner at the City Hotel to-day; and it is a thanksgiving dinner, sure enough. Can ▼ass-back dnoke, all kinds of fish, fowls, pies, paddings and fixings were named in the bill; and the lovers of good dinners may be assured they will be cooked right It is evident Messrs. Glass & Carr know what thanksgiving means, and how to render a hotel a popular and favorite resort Ter Supper at Martin’s Restaurant, on Tuesday evening, was one of the most delightful ** entertainments ever given in our oity. Martin is a man who knows how to set a table, and on Tuesday evening It was set and provided in a manner that cannot be excelled in any city in tbe Union. Those who are fond of good dishes should give him a call. FORT WAYNE. On Tuesday evening last a number of the ex cursionists who vißited Fort Wayne at tbe re cent opening of the Ohio and Indians Railroad to that place, assembled at the Merchant’s Ex change. On motion, Samuel Gormley, Esq., was called to the Chair, and Capt. John D. Davis appointed Secretary. The objeot of the meeting having been stated by the Chairman, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted: Rts&ved, That tbe cordial thanks of this meeting be ten* dered to tbe officers of the Ohio and Indiana Railroad Com* pany; to the citizens along the line of railroad; and most especially to our friends of Fort Wayne; fbr the kindneas - and unbounded hospitality extended to, us during our rMt and excursion. Resolved, That tbe beauty of location of tbe city of Fort Wayne, the number and elegance of its pnblio and private building h, the greatnera commerce and resources, and its oentxal position, render It a moat Important and attrac tive point on the line of trade and travel to and from the gnat western north-western section of our country. Resolved, That tbe immense traets of flno lands at the heads of the Maumee and Wabaeh Talley, and adjaoent to the line of the Ohio and Indiana Railroad, and the almost unlimited extent of their capacities to employ and sustain • dense population and supply a heavy trade, must In all future time constitute the railway to Fort Wayne, and con nection therewith, West of it particularly, interesting and valuable improvements to Pittsburgh and vicinity. Resolved, That the coutinuation of tbe Ohio and Indiana Railroad to Chicago, thereby opening to us the most direct and best route to reach that city, aod connect with its fif teen hundred miles of railroad*, reaching West and Booth west of It, deserves and demands the careful consideration aod active sympathy of the business men of Philadelphia aod Pittsburgh. Resolved, That to secure an interchange of views on this important subject, the following persons be appointed a committee to call a public meeting of oar citizens at such time aud plane as they may deem beet calculated to further the prosecution of tbe said work. Resolved, That these proceedings be published, and a copy be lorwerded by thn Chairman to the Editors of the Fort Wayne newspapers. The following are tho names of the committee to eail the meeting: Samuel Gormley, Henry Woods, James Mar shall, John WlUock, Edward Gregg, Geo. F. Gill more, Robert M. Riddle, J. Heron Foster, D. N.

Conoeding the faot that the De mooraoy may not be able 4o select a champion from its own ranks for the important office nam ed, we should by no means be indifferent as to the material to be seleoted by the opposition. For obvious reasons, the west is entitled to the man. This should not be lost eight of, nor conceded for ttifliog reasons. As we are not in posses sion of first class statesman, the next best thing we can do is to fnrnlsh common sense, practical men, whose good judgment and gentlemanly de meanor would at all times command attention and respect. Men who hare learned the wants of the people from themselves/ and appreciate them. Men of tact, industry and sagacity. We have such men and not least among them is Gis. William Robisob. The selection of such a man would be of immense value to the west and to the State. His constituency might not be aonoyed with long speeches, but they might be certain of good works. His eminently prac tical and nsefnl character is by no means local, nor wonld he be a novioe to the duties of even a United States Senator. Extracts from an lowa Latter. We extract from a letter written by one of the most honest, candid and intelligent old cititens, who has resided in and near this city for nearly a half century. He purchased a farm of one hundred and twenty acres about four miles from the oity of Davenport, I t* at $12.60 per acre. He took his family there; and as they'were not farmers, and he had spent his life, since he had strength to work, at mechanism—and by-the-by, was one of the bestmeohaUcewc had about Pittsburgh— ho knew but Little about agriculture. Therefore, he had tolorably hard work, as he says, to make a living for his family and self sinos he looated there; bat it would seem he is not discouraged, as appears from the following extract: "I am not tired of fhnni&g, although I have to work pretty hard sometimes. Yet 1 console myself with the reflection thst it Is the most s»- dependent lift a man can live. I know that many in comparatively easy oiroumstaaoes In your so l other cities, are extremely snxioos to pro vide the necessaries for subsistence of their families for the coming winter. We look for ward with the prospect of plenty, let prices rule as they may. Oar bread and taters are aafe; our meat is in the pen’, and Will be in the barrels at the proper time. All the other little fixings, such as hotter, eggs, Ac., Ac., are in the way of being ready, as they may be required. Our cof fee, sugar, molasses, Ac., are on hand; there fore we may hope to get tbrongh the winter without much difficulty. I feel thankful to Providence that I came here wkfc my family when I did.

This summer there were aboat three hundred houses built in the city, still there are neither houses or rooms to Ist. 1 have never yet seen a to-let on a house in the city, indeed it is rare to find a bouse half finish ed before it Is rented. If there were more houses there would be many more inhabitants in the city-” A curious case is now being argued before the Supreme Court of New York, involving the right to the gronnd now occupied by Trinity Chorob, New York city. The oaae is that of Christopher C. Kiersted vs. the Rector and Wardens of Trini ty Church and the State of New York. The Commercial Advertiser says: “ The complainant in this suit olalms to be de scended from Anneke Jens, who, in 16C8, or thereabouts, was possessed of certain estates in New York, amounting to nearly 200 acres. Upon the capture of the Island in 1664 by the British, her title wss confirmed by that Government, but the land taken possession of by the Dnke of York end by him leased to one Seckners. After his accession to the throne, the property was known as the King’s Faria, and subsequently to 1697, when the Parish of Trinity Chnroh was incor porated, was from time to time lessed to that corporation, has retained uninterrupted possession of it to the present time. 4 • The complaint alleges that the property was beMin trust for Anneke Jsnx and her heirs by the British Government until the year 1788, af ter which time the State of New York essnmed the trust, and prays that the plaintiff and as many of the heirs of the said Anneke Jans as may become parties to the suit, may be plaosd in possession thereof, and that the oorporatlon of Trinity Chnroh may be made to account for the rents and profits derived from the property from 1788 to the present time. 44 Theyulao allege that they were ignorant of the tenure by which the corporation of Trinity Churoh held this property until 1846, when a suit similar to this mado the faots known. “ The defendants severally demur to the oom plalut, which they allege is insufficient to form the ground of any actiuu, and because the de* fendants have been in uninterrupted possession of the property for more than twenty years.” 'The following, which we take from the Philadel phia Argus, should warn all who are departing for Kansas or Nebraska, to prepare for winter there.

[From tbe-fidentiflo American.] The Coal Industry of the United State* It is scarcely possible to appreciate tho vast internal resources of the United States; they are unequalled by thoße of any other country ; no person can doubt this after reading " Taylor’s Statistics of Coal.” Our bituminous coal fields embraoe an area of 133,132 square miles, whilst that of all Europe amounts to only 17,507 miles. Yet with all oar inexhaustible ooal fields, some of them the easiest worked in the world, our ooal trade is but of yesterday in comparison with thst of England. The great abundance of wood in the Atlantic States by the early settlers, afforded an abundance of cheap and clean fael for a long time, but owing to its having become so scarce and dear in many places within tbe past twenty years, attention has been direoted to its substitute—American ooal—which is now be coming a trade of vast importance. It is a sin gular feet, that the ooal trade of our country oommenoed with 465 tons in the year 1820, which were sent to Philadelphia by the Lehigb Coal *»od Navigation Company. This small amoint completely filled the market, aod was only disposed of with some difficulty during tba year. In 1827, it—the coal trade—increased to 48,047 tons; in 1837 t 0881,026 tons; in 1847 to 3,000,000,and 1852 to 4,383,730 tons; thisyear it is calculated that it will exceed 6,000,000 tons. These statistics relate only to tbe anthracite coal trade of Pennsylvania, for we have not been fur nished with any data of our bitominous ooal trade. The amount of bituminous coal, however, mined and consumed in our country annually, must now be very great; we do not know that it equals tho anthracite, bat it certainly must come oloso up to it. It j.s now used on the steamboats on the Ohio and the Mississippi, and in all the cities and villages ou tho banks of these riven. We aleo perceive that the ferry steamboats which ply on the rivers bound ing our oity, have been using tbe Cumber land ooal for a month past, and we are told that a number of foundries nse nothing else. We may safely set down the amount of all kinds of coal oonsumid in our country at 10,000,000 per annnm. This is certainly a great amount, bat when we consider that Great Bri tain produces 31,500,000 tons per annnm, we have some efforts to make yet before we reach that figure. But it will not require many years to aooomplish this, for if our anthracite coal has increased in thirty-four years from 365 tons to half a million, what increase may we not expect both in it and the bUominoos ooal produce da ring the next twenty years. As the anthracite region of Pennsylvania embraces an area of bat 437 square miles, only a 304th part of our bitu mlnonsjcoal area, we oan form some eouoeption of what the coal trade will yet attain to, in the future history of our country. , The SarllßftOH Foolish Trick, We have this morning learned the particulars of the dnel which was reported to have oome off near Burlington on Saturday. It appears that three young gentlemen of this city, one of whom is a merchant, another a physician, and the third a member of the legal profession, while at Bor- Hngton on Friday, on a frolic, arranged a sham dnel to come off between two of their nnmber on the following morning. Tbe plan was pat in execution, blank shots were fired; the merchant pretended to be wounded in the arm ; his assumed opponent shammed to have received a shot in the thigh ; and the farce ended in a pretended reconcilia tion. Tbe parties in tbe affair are annoyed at vari ous rumors that have grown out of tbe transac tion, bat they have nobody to blame but them selves for figuring at ail in so foolish a transac tion. We have the names of those concerned, bat refrain from making them public. The oooumnoe was considered as a jest, and it was designed to restrict all knowledge of it to a oertain circle, but it has gone further than was at first intended, aod the actors in it are rcapiog the fruits of their own folly.— Phila.

It would appear (hat the party which was mainly instrumental la bringing him into power is now heartily sick of his rule, and lament the state of disorganisation into whieh the country is reduced. Ilia retire ment is again hinted at, but it is considered that he oonld now only escape the victorious in surgents either by Puebla or Vera Crux, and it was not unlikely thAt these avenues would soon be closed against him. On the 21st of December the people are to vote whether ho is to continue to rule or not, and if in the negative, they are to aay who is to be his successor. The result will be made known in February of next year.

Accident ox thi Colombia Railroad. —The express train whieh left Pittsburgh on Bunday night, was thrown off the track about noon on Monday, twenty-four miles this side of Philadel phia. The ooupling between the second and third passenger ears broke, and the latter went down the embankment, rolling over and over, and finally laoding upon its side. The oar was full of passengers, and they were thrown into the greatest confusion, which was not a little heightened by the fact that the stove became broken, and its horning oontents were scattered among the passengers. The ear was very much broken, so muoh so that most of the inmates were extricated through the breaches in the; bottom. The Rev. Mr. Wheat, a Baptist clergyman, was hart aboat the •pine, and Capt Hay, of York, was struck in the side. The coals from the stove set fire to the car, bnt the flames were speedily extin guished. Benevolence and War. —The English papers are oommendiog the efforts of a young English lady, who is organizing a corp of nurses to at tend to the wants of the wounded in the Crimea. They pay her bsnevolenoe some very high com pliments, and speak of her sots as deserving al most of an apotheosis. The same papers are urging the British Government to send another hundred thousand men into the Crimea to out the throats and blow ont the brains of the Rus sians. If it be suoh a heaven-born sot of be nevolence to assuage the wounds begotten by war, why expose so many to the obanoes of get ting hurt. The sympathy which is excited by the one sot must oondemn the other, especially, as this sooorgeof war is inflioted upon humanity for the maintenance of no prinolple for their good. It is the old fight of despotio govern-, ments for national aggrandisement, and has not! a single principle of publlo good to oommend it' to the favor of the rest of the world.— Ledger.

The Arabs, as Dr. Morse has assured os in bis interesting travels, use a cer tain herd, included in its ingredients, as a means of pro longing life; and it is well known that these wanderers of the desert live to a more advanced age than any other peo ple. A venerable Sheik of tbe Bedouin tribe, who was accustomed tp chew the leaves of the plant as we uie to beeeo, informed Dr. M. that he had never known a week’s illness, and that be was 106 years of age! There Is no man ner of doubt that the INVIGORATING ELIXIR OR COR DIAL gives a permanent vigor to the vital organization, removing disease where It exists in any other than au organic form, and fortifying the system against Its attacks, when it has not yet obtained a foothold. A stimulant much more delightful In its effects than any form of dis tilled or fermented liquor, it clean) instead of clouding the brain, and actually adds permanently to the natural vigor of tbe nerves, muscles and digestive organs. The fragile and delicate female, whether married or siugle, will find it the beat remedy for the physical disturbance and irregu- larities incident to her structure and habits, it indubita bly cures nervous tremblings, fiuttertngs of tbe heart, headaches, fainting fits, hysterics, dyspepsia, nausea, and regulates the secretions, whether too affluent or the reverse. All physical disabilities seem to vanish before iu genial iulluence. The Cordial is pat up, highly concentrated, iu pint bot tles.

She left Liverpool at 1 o’clock ou the afternoon of the 7th. She brings 44 eabin, and 108 steerage passengers. Livtui'.KiL, November f>th —Intelligence from various sources has bean received, of the progress of the siege to the 2yih. Offlrinl despatches have also been received front Dun das, Oanrobert, and Uamelin, detailing the operations of the allies to the ll ’h; the Ist day of the bombaniineßtOfilj, published on the Ctb. Uamelin says if the Rusal ana had not closed the entrance to the harbor by sinking ships, the allied squadron, after the first Are, could have successfully run in and placed tbemmdve* in communication with tho land forces, without perhaps greater loss than they have now actually suffered. The English loss Is one ship, two lieu tenants—Chase and Madden*—killed, and sixteen officers wounded; in all 41 men killed, and 266 wounded. The ships were considerably diuisyod by shot and shells. The French loss is 30 killed and ISti wounded. On the evening of tlu* 2<ith, the Russians, eight thousand strong, made a sortie jrom Sebestopnl, and also from the direction of Balakluvn, but werurcpnlwd, one thousand men being left dead on the held According to the latest telegraphic advices, the attack upon the fortifications from sea bad not been renewed. Tbe bombardment from the heights had been vigorously con tinued, and the forls, at Quarantine and Ooustaatlne, had been raz>-il, and the southern tower, and other works, had been demolished. Tbe town is stated to bo have been on fire in three different places. It was evident that Sebastopol could not hold out much longer. According to one accouot, the assault would be made on the 2d or 3d of November. - A telegraphic despatch das been published by a Greek house to the effect that the place had positively been cap tured, although it Is believed by many that it raqnires con firmation. Telegraphic despatches published at London, on the morning of the 7th. state that the town of Sebastopol was in rains; that the French chasseurs kill all the artillery men who show themselves at theembrasurcs; that during all night a shower of balls poured into the forts, leaving tbe enemy do possibility of repairing disasters. The Rue riiau fleet sought shelter under buildings alongside the quays, but the allies ware ahjut to fire upon them from new lotteries with red-hot bails. A lyindoa gaaeite extraordinary was published on the morning of the 7 ih, with further despatches from Lord Rag lan. Lord Dunklin was taken prisoner by the Russians during a recent engagement. The Russians all with drawn from the forts in the vicinity of Balaklava. Raglan states that Mensrhikoff was not in Sebastopol, but was with tho main body of the army on the plains north of Bushs]- serai. It i* stated that the French lost two bnndred men bv explosions, while the English loss is under one hundred killed and wounded. As tbe British and French forces have tam much cat up by disease and losses, reinforcements are urgently called for from England. During the past two weeks four thousand men have been sene from Eng land, including amongst them detachments of regiments recently from Canada. The reinforcements make the num ber of British infantry in the Crimea thirty thousand. The French reinforcements are on a much larger seals. Thirteen o it of twenty-four iron cylinders ordered at Woolwich, for conveyance to Sebastopol, to blow up the sunken ships at mouth of the harbor, have been completed and shipped for their destination. Each cylinder will con tain 1000 ttw powder, which will be igDitrd by a battery.
