We would call the attention of MERCHANTS AND
' BUSINE3S-SIEN to the fact that we ha7e just received
froja Philadelphia a number of fonts of new -Job Type, and
are now prepared to fill orders! for Cards, Circulars, Bill
Heads, Paper Boohs, Posters, and Programmes for exhibi
tions. All orders will be promptly filled.
HOW THINGS LOOK SOW.
Things certainly look 11 a good deal mixed up”
just now, in tho political, commercial and soolal
world, not only in this country, but all over the
earth. We think it proper, as we aro borne
along on the tido of events, to rein up occasion
ally tako a hasty glanoo over the whole field,
and present at one view the condition of the
world’s affairs.
Congress, during the last session, out oat a
large amount of work to be dono daring the
short session this wintor. Over two-thirds of
this short session is already gone, and bat little
of that work is done; and it seemß pretty cer
tain now that no bills of any great importance
will be passed thiß winter. The Pacific railroad
bill will not pass. Tho Hoose-committee that
has charge of it will keep it till too late for no
tion. For another year and another Congress
tho people must wait for the first movement in
favor of this most desirable and popular mea
sure. The Homestead Bill is defeated for this
session. The inorease of the navy ib deferred.
Nothing of consequenoo is likely to be dons
with tho tariff. Appropriations for tho im
provement of rivers and harbors, however ne
cessary and proper, mnst wait a while longer.
The bounty lnnd bill in favor of tbo old soldiers
has passed the Senate, and may possibly pnss
tbo House. Insrcase of postage will not bo at-
tempted, we hope. In fact, bat little will be
done, except to discuss and defeat an absurd
proposition to increase the pay of Congressmen
fifty per cent, for their valuable services.
Oar relations with Spain remain just where
they were a twelvemonth ago. The Black War
rior insult, and all other difficulties with that
country, are unsettled, and all reparation for re
peated injuries is refused. The Island of Cuba
oannot be obtained for the present, by purchase
- or otherwise. The treaty with Dominica haß
fallen through, and no advantages, political or
commercial, have been obtained in that island.
; The old King of the Sandwich Islands is dead,
aod the treaty of annexation has died with him.
Hlb Bon and successor prefers a little island
kingdom of copper-skins and traders to citizen
* ship in the great republic. Meantime he has
fallen in love with an English girl, and will
probably favor English interests daring his
reign. The Central Amer.can difficulty with
England is still unsettled, and will probably re
main so till England is clear of her Ear tern war.
The demand on tho Dutch government in the
Gibson case is Btill refused. In fact, for the
last eix months, but little has been done, either
by legislation or negotiation; and the present
Congress seems resolved to distinguish itself for
“masteTly.inactivity.” The administration can
not foroe negotiations unless backed ap by Con
gress, and Congress docs nothing in the Spanish
affairs.
Meantime, the different departments of the
government havo discharged their functions
with commendable fidelity and prudence. The
reports of the several departments to Congress,
were received with general favor, containing, as
they did, many cxoellent suggestions, and much
evidence that the public service was not suffer
ing in their hands.
But while Congress is doing little, and nego
tiations are fruitless, the people haTO been active
for tho lost few months; and the public mind
unusually excited. A new party, ihat but a
year ago had scarcely been heard of, has sud
denly become “a power” in tho land; and
threatens to overturn all previous political com
binations. But while confounding the old par
' ties, it is apparently in confusion itself. In the
South it is rapidly defeating the Democratic
party, while in the North it is electing Free Soil
and Abolition Senators and members of Con
gress. It has elected Seward, in New York, and
Wilson, in Massachusetts, to the United States
Senate. It is denouncing foreigners, while K.
N. Governors are appointing foreigners to office.
It is advocating protestanism, and yet protestant
associations are voting against it. . It is prom
ising reform, yet w&stiog its energies in a divi
sion of the spoils. It is professing pure Amer
ioanism, yet defeating homestead bills that
would give land to the landless, homes to the
poor, and new domains to the area of civilization.
Of its principles as a national party, but little is
yet known. Many supposed that (his new party
was to be thoroughly national in its creed and
sentiments^and national in its unity, harmony
and strength. Bat recent developements indi
cate that the diverse elements of which it is com
posed cannot be moulded into a harmonics and
permanent organization, acting upon a broad
and national platform. The question of slavery
has already, sundered it. It has its “ hards”
and its “ softs its northern and southern prin
ciples; audits elements of internal dissension,
and ultimate dissolution, like the other parties.
Many hoped it wonld prove a party of reform—
thorough, unselfish and substantial reform.
But sach a reform party must be founded on a
wider basis than mere prejudices of religion or
birth ; mast steer clear of slavery agitation, and
adopt a, sonnd national platform. The new
party may possibly do so yet.
Within the laßt twelve montha this country baa
undergone a financial revolution as sweeping and
Important as its political revolutions. One year
ago our people were rejoicing in abundance, and
were reaping a golden harvest by feeding the
hungry nations of Europe. Now, there is no
food to spare for other nations ; and thousands
In our own country are out of employment, and
nlmoßt perishing from hunger and cold. Many
manufactories have been stopped; work on
railroads suspended ; and all branohcs of trade
and business have suffered from want of funds,
the loss of confidence, the breaking of banks,
the hdarding of capital, and a general and exces
sive panic. But already there are signs of im
provement. Confidence is beginning to revive ;
trade to show signs of life and activity ; and all
branches of business seem likely soon to be re
sumed on a more oanfions and solid basis. In
one short year the country has passed through a
jorists of financial difficulties and almost famine;
' and has learned oantion, economy and patience
- from the short bnt severe experience. There are
reliable signs that the worst is past, and a season
of prosperity returning..
The grain in the ground gives promise of good
erops next year. Kansas, Nebraska and Minne-
SJta are rapidly filling up with a farming popu
lation. Utah and Oregon will soon claim admis
sion as Stateß of the Union; California still
yields a largo supply of gold. Imports of for
eign goodß are greatly reducod, and the indebt
edness of the country is being settled up and
diminished.
Revolutions still disturb Mexico, and the. Ce
ntral and .South American States; but result in
ao important changes or Improvements in the
condition of the people.

The revolution in China, that ono year ago
gave promise of a speedy and most happy result
in favor of civilization aud Christianity in that
vast and populous empire, has lately suffered
severe checks and reverses; and tho revolution
ists may yet be overoomo, and the Tartar dynas
ty, with its exclusive principles and deapotio and
barbarian tendencies, seems likely to triumph,
and become more firmly established than. ever.
In Europe the war is draining the western na-
tions of their wealth, and tha flower of their
armies. England, Franco, Austria, and Turkey
have already expended ovor three hundred mil-
ion dollars and a hundred thousand lives in the
conflict, and yet neither party has gained any
decided advantages. All parties to the tremen
dous 6trnggio aro evidently woary of it, and
alarmed at tho vast expenditures of life and
money it will require. Constant efforts are
mado to procure peace ; and there is now some
hope of suocess. The Czar is evidently willing
submit to terms that would have been rejeoted
one year ngo; and the allies offer to treat on
terms in whioh a demand to bo refunded the ex
penses of the war is not mentioned. Peaoe is a
possible event, but a long and bloody war ie fa r
more probable ; and nearly all the nations of
Europe must feel its blighting infinenoes, and be
drawn into its destruoive vortex. The repnbli"
cans and revolutionists of Europe are waiting
for their opportunity in the midst of this contest;
and should the wsr continue their time may
come, and tho whole oharactor of the war be
ohanged by their uprising.
We thus see in all parts of the world elements
of excitement and ohange that may fill the nsxt
few years with great and important events. The
destiny of many nations may bo involved in
those events; and tho maps of Europe and
Asia may have to be re-cast before many years.
* In our own country revolutions are more
harmless and peacefnl. The ballot box here
executes the freeman’s will, and aooomplißhos
ail needed reforms.
Ncwi of tb« Day.
Hon. Bam Honßlon will doliver a leotnre In
the Boston Anti-Slavory Coarse on the 22d of
February. It is understood he will give the
Southern view of the suhjeot.
T. 1\ Shsffoer, the projector of the World
Girdle Telegraph, expeots to leave for Russia
about the first of April, to complete his arrange
ments for the construction of his lines through
tho territories of the Czar in Russia and Asia.
Tho Do Vaux legaoy for tho establishment of
a college at Niagara Falls, is much larger than
was at first thought The domain, of the inati
tion is 331 acres of land, and tho amount of
real and personal property for its support $175,-
000.
Know Nothingism has mado its appearance in
tho New York Board of Aldermen. On Monday
evening a resolution was offered, whioh was
adopted by a vote of 18 to 8, calling on the Chief
of Police to furnish the nationalities of his of
ficers.
Tho American County Convention, of Phila
delphia, on Tuesday nominated Henry C. Pratt,
to fill tho vacanoy in tho State Senate, caused by
the death of Levi Foulkrod. Tho Whig Con
vention of the Cotfhty had previously nominated
the same J. Murray Rush is the Demo
cratic candidate.
A municipal eleotion was held on Tuesday in
the city of Lancaster, which waß characterized
by much excitement. A Fusion ticket, ia oppo
sition to the Know Nothings, was run by a com
bination of Whigs and Democrats. Christian
Kiefler, the candidate of the American party for
Mayor, was beaten in the city by 274 majority
for Mr. Albright, the Fusion candidate. Thero
was a great deal of turbulenoo aud exoitenient
at the polls all day.
THE WEST-Tnß SENATOR.
The following is from the Pittsburgh Commsr»
cial Journal of Wednesday, and speaks “right
out loud *’ in favor of the claims of the West to
the Scnatorsbip. Speaking of the K. N.’s, the
appointmnnt of Mr. Power, &0., the Journal
Bays:
Whilo the movement expresses a purpose to
obliterate old party lines, and will exert a very
important influence ia that direction, it is other
wise a significant fact that Mr. Power, being
both a Western man and Democrat, should have
been unexpectedly chosen by the Whig Execu
tive for a high office. Did tho Governor mean
to silence complaint on the part of the Demo
crats that they have not received their share of
tho loaves and fishes? by offering ono of tho
highest offices in bis gift to a Democrat 7 Did
he mean also to kill tho claim of the West for a
Senator of the West, by making a Western-mao,
Thomas J. Power, of Beaver county, Adjutant
General of Pennsylvania 7 Itlooks exaotly so.
We offer no objection to .the appointment of
Mr. Power. He is a worthy and capable citi
zen, and a good Democrat. ,
But we do protest against accepting this ap
pointment as a quit/olajm to the We at on their
title to a Senator. mTsay to our delegation at
Harrisburg that they will meet the wishes and
expectations of tho people, only by insisting as
one man on the Senator. Lot them give us
Governor Johnston if they can, and let them
exhaust effort to carry him before they try else
where.
If they cannot carry Governor Johnston, Gen
eral Moorhead's name will come before them
strongly baoked. General Moorhead, although
a Democrat, has always been steadfast to Penn
sylvania interests, and iB ono of the few Demo
crats who have dared to avow his adherence to
tho policy of Protection, and maintain it at all
times, and in all places through good and evil
report.
It is easy for us, who recognize General Moor
bead as a personal friend of many years, to pro
claim our readiness to advocate his eleotion to
the United States Senate. But sinoo Governor
Pollock has appointed Thomas J. Powor, we do
no violence now to party relations, in urging the
election of General Moorhead as a political
move, which our delegation at Harrisburg should
agree upon as the very next best thing they
could accomplish, if they fail to oarry Governor
Johnßton.
Debts of Pittsburgh.—A correspondent of
tho Philadelphia Ledger, who represents himself
as a large holder of Pittsburgh bonds, calls on
our city authorities to make a full exhibit of tho
debts of our city, and of the measures taken to
meet its boads and liabilities as they fall due.
A portion of tho debt is due this year, and other
portions in succeeding years; and in 1859
$200,000 of the city debt will be due. The Led
ger 1 * correspondent wants to know what arrange
ments have been made to meet their payments;
anin short, he deßires a fall statement of our
financial condition. Ho says, however, that the
interest on Pittsburgh bonds is always paid
promptly. What new onuso of alarm tho writer
has discovered we are not informed; but it would
do no harm to let not only him, but our own citi
zens know just how matters stand in the finan
ces of our city, and just how muoh the city owes.
What say our Counoils 7 A favorable statement
might enable the Ledger 1 s correspondent to sell
his bonds “ at a rise.”
Tnu Sleet and Ico of the past few days ren
ders traveling by railroad rather a slow business,
besides playing the deuce generally with our
Eastern and Western mails. It makes the iron
track Blippery as a politician, and not more to
be depondod on. The train that left Pittsburgh
for the West at 8 P. M. on Wednesday, had only
arrived at Salem, Ohio—a distance of 69 miles
—yesterday at 10 A. M.j although three locomo
tives were attached to the train; and the Cincin
nati train, due here at 8} o’clock on Wednes
day night, did not arrive until 4 P. M, yes
terday. On the Central Pennsylvania Road
it is, if anything, worse than on the Ohio and
Pennsylvania. The mail due on Wednesday at
midnight did not arrive until 4 P. M. yesterday.
When the 2 P, M. mail will arrive is beyond our
ken. Our readers will therefore have to bear
with us for a day or two, if the news be not of
the latest description.

IiBTTEEB PHOa nAREIBBVRG.
HAEBiSBUBa, February sth, 1855.
Tho two Souses met at 3 P.M., to-day, and
prooeeded to bnsiness.
In tho House, the principal part of tho ses
sion was consumed in reading bills in place,
presenting petitions, &o.
The Senate bill in relation to. the custody of
the geological speoimens, passed finally, and was
sent to the Governor.
The Committee on tho teiUeeted seat in North
ampton, was decided in Cotrfmitteo by a majori
ty of two in favor of Bash, (Dem.) the sitting
member. The Committee were then discharged
from the farther consideration of the subject.
' The Senate was engaged for some time on tho
Meohanio’s Lien Bill, the Fifth Seotion being
tho principal subject of disoussion, by Messrs.
Price, Jordan, Hamlin, Buckalew, Flenniken,
M’Clintock and Darsie. It was laid over on
third reading, on motion of Mr. Fry, and order
ed to be printed.
Mr. Darsie read in place a bill remedying tho
defects of tho bill of last yenr, in relation to
unseated lands, which was taken np and passed.
Mr. M’Cliutook presented the remonatranoe of
ninoty members of the Roman Catholic Congre
gation of Harrisburg, against the Gth Seotion of
bill No. 47—similar to that presented a few days
since, by Mr. Price, of Philadelphia, which was
read and laid on the table.
Progress was made in several other publio
and private bills, which will bo notioed in proper
season.
The press west of the mountains should assist
in calling pnblio attention to the importance of
the movomen, made by Mr. M’Clintock, to se
cure a State Hospital for the insane west of the
mountains. The Btate Hospital near this place
is now occupied to its greatest capacity. Is it
not wise to prepare early for the necessity that
is close apon ns t
The papers have made a mistake in an
nouncing the appointments at Philadelphia—
they , have not been made, and the applicants
'are again at sea, hoping against hope.
The Senatorial canvass waxes warm. Aspi
rants are ardent in pursuit of the prize, but, as
yet, without the means of knowing their fate.
The State Treasurer made a report in answer
to Mr. Darsie’s resolution, inquiring us to the
nature of the uncurront funds, &c., ($11,000)
in bis vault, handed over to him by his prede
cessor, which was referred.
Harribburo, February Gih, 1555.
This was private bill day iu the House of :
Representatives. The following Senate bills
passed:
A to an Act entitled an “ Act
taxing dogs."
An Act to erect part of Luzerno into a sepa
rate county, to be called “ Lackawanna.”
A Supplement to an Act incorporating the
Western University of Pennsylvania, passed
February 19, 1819.
An Act to extend the power of certain offi
cers in Allegheny county.
A Supplement to an Act entitled an Act re
lating to the granting of tavern licenses in Alle
gheny county, paBSOd April 14, 1851.
An Act consolidating the Wards of tho City of
Pittsburgh, for educational purposes.
Qaite a spirited and personal discussion took
place on a Philadelphia bill, between* Mr.
Fletcher and Mr. Carlisle, which continued to
the close of tho morning session, and occupied
some time during the afternoon session. Mr.
Carlisle offored an unimportant, and, as be
thought, a proper and ineffonsive amendment,
which Mr. Fletcher denominated discourteous,
if not worse. Mr. C. responded, and in terms
that evidenced he was not disposed to submit
quietly to the oensorship of bis colleague.
The Senate passed bill 73, entitled an Act re
lating to actions of ejectment, introduced by
Mr. Jamison.
Senato bill 155, introduced by Mr. Darsie,
continuing in force the laws graduating lands
upon which purchase money is duo to the Com
monwealth, passed finally.
Senate bill 72, introduced by Mr. Hcndrloko,
relating to judgments and executions in foreign
attachments, passed through.
No. 123, S. file, introduced by Mr. Brown,
coming up, ou third rtadiog, was finally passed.
Mr. M’Clintock called up a bill in relation to
tho Commissioners of Allegheny County, in
creasing their pay to $2.60 per day, for any day
of service, whioh passed.
Mr. M’Clintock introduced a bill, in manu
script, directing tho Secretary of the Common
wealth to place the geological specimens re
cently in charge of tho Harrisburg Library So
ciety, in the custody of the Buperiote. dent of
the Pennsylvania State Hospital, near this place,
to be placed by him in the “Museum” attach
ed to that institution, for the free inspection of
visiters and inmates; which, after somo discus
sion on -the part of Orabb and M’Clintook, (tho
former of whom desired it to be appropriated to
Philadelphia,) was passed through it* different
readings under a suspension of Lbe rules.
Mr. M'Clintock read in his place a bill incor
porating the East Liberty Mutual Fire Insu
rance Company, whioh was referred to the ap
propriate committee.
A communication was read from the State
Treasurer, in answer to a resolution, in which
be refers to certain deficits of tho Treasurer of
Philadelphia county in his returns to the State
Treasury, amounting to about $-10,000, “no
part of which,” in the language of Mr. Darsie
in the course of his remarks, “ had ocourred
daring the term of the present Treasurer.”
At the instance of Mr. Darsie, Mr. H&ldemao
offered a resolution of reference, which was
adopted.
You will observe, by referenoj to the “calen
dar,” that the bill extending the powers of cer
tain officers in Allegheny county passed the
House, and only requires tho signature of the
Governor to become a law.
Fovxarc w PmsruaoH.—The population in FitUburgh
supplied with food at one of the ponp bouses is stated at
11,446 men, women and children ! —Wheeling IntdUgencsr.
This number is within two or three hundred
of the entire population of Wheeling. What
immense soup booses we most have in Pitts
burgh. Is the wire bridge passable again ?
Poor Poland.
It has already been stated that a consequence
of the enormous expenses of tho present Euro
pean w&t, tho Emperor of Russia has ordered a
heavy impost to bo laid upon the Polish provinces,
which few of them will bo able to pay. The
oontingent to bo paid from the Polish treasury
is increased 9,000,000 of silver roubles. What
tho former contingent was we have no means of
knowing, but how great the whole sum must be
onr readers may judge by tho statement that to
meet the demand Ihe land tax will bo increased
Bixfold, payable in twenty-four instalments. The
looal authorities affirm that the proprietors wilt
not be able to meet this demand in twioe as many
instalments, and hence it is said they are making
exertions to induce the government to relieve
them of the enormous burthen by finding some
other souroes of income. In this wo may read
the causes whioh impel tho Russian government
to seek peace by agreeing to the four points laid
dowa by the allies. The cost of military ope
rations of Russia, in tho pending war, far ex
oeed tho financial capacity of the government.
All exterior oredit is of courso impossiblo, and
the country itself is not able to maintain a war
oarried on upon so gigantio a scale. It scorns
likely, therefore, that if the war should bo pro
tracted, the excessive burthons of taxation will
force the discontented provinces into rebellion.
tSF Few are aware how frequently publish
ers are compelled to insert amoug their adver
tisements, statements which they oan neither
sanction or believe.
A pleasant exception to this disagreeable ne
cessity are the advertisements of Dr. J. C. Ayer’s
Cherry Peotoral and Pills, which will bo found
in our columns.. We have published for him be
foro, and always with the feeling that in so do
ing we in no wise lend ourselves to deceive or
mislead the publio, for we have had indisputable
proof that his words are strictly true, with
abundant reason to believe that his medicines
will do all they promise, and all that can be rea
sonably expected from any medicine. ■ His Cher
ry Peotoral is too well known in this commui iiy
to need any commendation from us, and his Pills
wo are ercdibly informed are not inferior to his
Pectoral. —Providence Mirror, R. I.
In allusion to the prevailing tendenoy of
the age in this oountry to degrade labor, and In
crease the non-produoing classes, tho Philadel
phia Ledger pithily remarks :
“ It is as oommon now for a biographer to
say that a man rote from the work-bench to pub
lio life, as for one of fifty years ago to speak of
■ poor but honest ’ parents. We hardly know a
politician, who, at any period of his life, has la
bored with his hands, that does not allude with
oomplaoenoy to the faot of his ‘ having risen by
bis own unaided talent ’ to hiß present elevation
—whether he be a perplexed councilman or
bungling legislator. And such a thing as s|pro
fessionsd man’s turning mechanio 1 it would
seem to the pnblio the <f< tcemttt Acenuißpoken
of by the Latin poet.”

But their efforts can nover compare;
For the customers dock round his store to gaze

They have changed from the old lo the new;
And I feel In the depths of my pocket the truth,
That prices down town have changed too. .

Spectacles*
IN TUB MOST valuable triumphs of science and art, the
invention of Spectacles ranks with the highest. The
experienced Optician overcomes the advances of nature,
and confers upon the aged-sighted the Inestimable advan
tage of ret ainlog the noblest of his senses. Yet great injury
is constantly resulting to thousands from ignorance on the
part of venders, or of those who venture to choose for them
selves. ~
Tuere are many requisites attending the selection of
Glasses. The parity cf finish of the glass; Uj proper con
vexity ; the best form and adjustment of the frame, sc as
to preserve the parallelism with the eye for distant vision
or tor near vision, to throw the plane of each glass at right
angles to the axis of vision for each eye; to bring the ex
act centre of each glass precisely opposite the pupil; to
have the position of the glasses perfect, both fcorizontilly
and vertically, fte., Ac.
From long expeiienco in fitting glasses, united with a
perfect knowledge of the structure of the eye, we can
promise scientific accuracy, and thus aid much in the pre
servation of the eye.
Gold, Silver and Steel Spectacles, carefully selectedof the
b*it qualities, for Pale. Also, glasses fitted, Ac.
