THE CITY POST.
SATURDAY MORNING
Mbetino op *hb Boaud op Tbadk A special
meeting of the Merchants* Exchange and Board
of Trade was held last night.
Mr. John Bhiptou, the President of tho Asso
ciation, took the Chair, and Mr, John D. Soully
acted as Secretary.
Tho Committee ou Internal Improvements
made the following report:
“The Committeo to whom was referred tho
subject of the sale of tho Pablio Works, accom
panied by tho draft of a memorial by one of the
members of tho Association, have tho honor to
report the following memorial:—
*« To the Honorable tho Senate and House of
Representatives of the State of Pennsylvania:
“Tho Board of Trade of tho City of Pitts
burgh most respectfully remonstrate against* the
sale of tho Pablio Works to the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, or to any other Company
that will not be bound by law and their own in
terest to keep the Moin Line open for competi
tion in the carrying trade.
If great combinations of capital, and the
conferring of large immunities, are necessary
for the accomplishment of immense projects, it
is olbo necessary to watch and guard against
finch combinations, and to prevent them from
eitendiog their powers, and from grasping privi
leges beyond the purposes for which they were
created.
41 Your memorialists apprehend manifold evils
from the giving to any corporation now existing,
or hereafter to bo created, a monopoly of the
transportation of freight and passengers betweca
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh,—and they earnest
]y protest against permitting tho Maine Line to
fall: into the hads of those whose advantage it
would bo to regulate or destroy the cheap facili
ties for freight, as afforded by tho canal.**
This report was adopted, and ordered to bo
published.
. On motion, it waß ordered that one thousand
copies of Mr. Copley’s article on the improve
ment of the Ohio river be printed in pamphlet
form.
Mr. Lyman Wilmarth, the chairman of the
committee to whom had been referred tho pre
paring of a report upon the consolidation of
Pittsburgh and the surrounding places, read a
very ablo and interesting paper upon tho sub
ject. The committeo came out Btrong in favor
of consolidation, and urged tho project in a vig
orous and forcible manner.
The report was unanimously accepted, and a
motion made by Dr. Keyser to print five hun
dred copies. This motion elicited quite au ani
mated discussion, participated in by the doctor,
Messrs. Win. H. Smith, Shipton, Wilmarth and
others, but was finally carried.
Mr. W- H. Smith offered a resolution approv
ing of the Tacation of the canal between Liberty
and Seventh streets, to the Pennsylvania Riil*
road. ’ After some littlo discussion it was order
ed to be laid over.
Swindle bt a Confidence Man.—A farmer
named Jobn Barber called at the Mayor’s office,
yesterday, to make information against a person
calling himself George P. 3miih, for swindling
him Barber stated that he was
from the eastern part of the Stato, and while
coming to this city, on Thursday evening, in the
cars of thd Pennsylvania Railroad, made the
acquaintance of Smith, who being of exceedingly
plausible address, soon won the confidence uf
the old farmer, and tbe two became as intimate
as if they had known each other foryears. Tbey
talked familiarly about matters and things, until
Smith informed the other of all bis domestic
affairs. Among other subjects, ho stated he
was traveling west to see the country, but that
from an unforseen cause, although very wealthy,
he had allowed himself to get entirely out of
ready cash. This, he said, would not have been
& cause of uneasiness to him, if he c had not made
arrangements to be in Cincinnati by a particular
day, as be bad a check for $lOOO on Wm. A.
Hill &.Co. in his pocket; but the time he wonlJ
have to stop in the oity to get this cashed, would
prevent him from fulfilling the engagement. He
concluded by asking Mr. Barber whether he
would cot lend him $2OO on the check, get it
paid, and transmit the balance to him. The
unsophisticated farmer, believing this story was
true, consented to advance the money, but found
he had only $l5O. This amount he paid ovir.
and received tbe check.
After the arrival of the cars, Mr. Smith mys
teriously disappeared in the crowd at the d»*pot.
Yesterday morning, Barber proceeded to get tbe
check cashed when bo ascertained it was value
less, and that be was another victim of the “con
fidence man.” In tbe hopes that the Mayor
might help him to regain his money, he made
the information as above stated ; but Mr. Smith
knowing that tbe atmosphere of this place was
mot altogether salubrious after each a transac
tion, undoubtedly bad left, as be could not be
'found, although diligent search waa mad 3 for
him by the police.
District Court. —Before Hon. H. W. Wil
liams.
Ia the cause of the Charticrs Coal Company
vs. Carr, tbe jury was dismissed, after the case
was stated.
Sarah Johnston vs Jacob Johnston. Marshall
& Brown for plaintiff; Barton for defendant
This was an action of trover to recover a horar.
A verdict for $l5O was rendered for plaintiff,
subject to the opinion of the Court upon the
point whether the plaintiff, who is a carried wo
man, can bring suit »n her own name.
W. 8. Willoek vs. John Forsyth. T. B Ham
ilton and Cochran for plaintiff; Q P. Hamilton
And Hasbrouck for defendant. Action to recov
er f#r services aa agent for defendant in tho sale
of merchandize. On trial.
Fine Daguerreotypes.— Messrs. Wertz &
Patterson, have fitted up on Fifth street, next
door to Masonic Hall, one of tbe handsomest
daguerrean galleries in the city. Tbeir rooms
are large, airy, convenient, and afford superior
advantages to take a good likenessr Tbe gen
tlemeu are both artistes of lone experience in
their business, are provided with all the modern
improvements of tbeir art, and never fail to pro
duce a picture which gives complete satisfaction.
Their prices are moderate enough to accommo
date all.* Those of our citizens who desire to
prooure a faithful likeness of themselves cannot
do better than patronize Messrs. Wertz k Pat
terson, as we feel well essared they will be Buit
ed as well there as any place else.
A capias was issued yesterday, by Prothono
tary Campbell, for the arrest of S. M. Hoag. J
& Lick, D. D. Graham, G D. Humes. Philip
Blythestone, Clark Quay, and Patrick Narnara
who were charged by Samuel Storer with wi!
fully or maliciously sinking a boat containing
metal, belonging to plaintiff. Tho boat wnt
moored at the landing near Herr’s Island, and
the defendants who are boatmen from Frond
creek, ia coming down the river on a raft or
boat, ran their craft against Scorer’s and sink
it. The defendants were all arrested and held
to bail.
A Monster Akimal. —A couple of gentlemen,
returned Californians, have on exhibition in the
yard of tbe American Hotel, a singular curiosi
ty from that fabulous land. It is a monster
Grizzly Bear, weighing over sixteen hundred
pounds. It is probably the largest animal of
the kind ever seen. The same gentlemen also
exhibit a California Oayoto , the first specimen,
we believe, ever brought to the Atlantic States,
and a beautiful Badger. Tbe whole proves an
interesting exhibition, and is well worthy of a
wisit from oar citizens.
Ferocious Doas.—A lad about eight years of
age, named Edward Staley, son of Mr. Staley oi
Upper St. Clair township, was attacked by two
ferocious dogß, belonging to John Borland, on
Wednesday last, and torn nnd injured very
seriously. Yesterday, tho father of the boy
made information of the occurrence before Aid
M’Master, and a warrant was issued for the ar
rest of tbe owner of the dogs. A suit was alst
instituted in the District Court to recover dam
ageß for the injuries inflicted.
Spibitoid Cattle for the West.— Throe mag
nificent Durham bulls, belonging to a Dr. Green,
were shipped on the “Wm. Baird” yesterday, foi
Bloomington, Illinois. The first was an import
ed five year old, and weighed 2100 pounds; the
second was a two year old, raised from imported
«took, and weighed 1300 pounds ; the third wn
elghteen months old, raised from imported stock,
and weighed 1050 pounds. They are as fine
specimens as we have seen for a long time.
Fihb Shoe Establishment.—Wo invito the
attention of our readers to tbe advertisement cl
Mr. W, E. Schmerlz, shoo dealer, in anotbei
column, Mr. S. has lately replenished his always
fine stook with an extensive assortment of gait
era, slippers, shoes, &c., and now offers induce
ments to customers to purchaso frorii him seldom
equalled by shoe dealers. His establishment it’
on Market street, between Fifth and Liberty.
Depasture op Arjiy Wagons. Fifty-five
tons of army wagonß were shipped yesterday or
the steamer " Wo. Baird.” They are deßtined
for Jefferson Barracks, Mo., and are part of the
equipments of the new regiments. They were
manufactured in Philadelphia, and came by the
Central Railroad.
New Grocery Firm.—Messrs. Atwell, Lee &
Co. have commenced business on Wood street,
near Water. The firm is oomposed of youDp
men, bat who are thoroughly acquainted will,
with all that pertains to the wholesale grocer}
business. We wish them good success.

DR- MORSE’S
NVIG ORATING CORDIAL,
A PBENOMESON JN MEDICINE.
Health. Restored and Life Lengthened
MORSE’S INVIGORATING ELIXIR
IT fall replace weakness with strength,’incapacity with
efficiency, irregularity with uniform and natural ac-
tivity, and this not only without hazard of reaction, but
with a bappjeffdct on the general organisation. •3’* Bear
in mind that all maladies wherever they begin, finish with
the nervous system, and that the paralizatlon of the nurve
of motion and sensation is physical death. Bear in mind,
also, that for every kind of nervous disease, the Elixir Cor
dial Is the only reliable preparative known.
CURE OF NERVOUS DISEASES.
No language can convey an adequate idea of the imme
diate and almost miraculous change which it occasions in
the diseasol, debilitated and shattered nervous fyatera,
whether broken down by excess, weak by nature, or impair
ed by sickness—the unstrung and relaxed organization is
at once braced, revivified and built up. The mental and
physical symptoms of nervous disease vanish together un
der Its Influence. Nor Is the effect temporary; for the Cor
dial properties of the medicino roach the constitution itself,
and restore It to its normal condition.
LOSS OF MEMORY,
Confusion, giddiness, rush of bl*.od to tho head, melan
choly, debility; hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts if Mf
destruction—fear of insanity, dyspepsia, general prostra
tion, irritability, nervousness, inability to sleep, diseares
ncldent to male*, decay of the propagating functions, hyM
tcria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the in nrt,
impotency, constipation, etc-, from whatever causes arising,
it is, if there bo any rolianco to bo placed on human testi
mony, absolutely lofallible.
A GREAT MEDICINE FOR FEMALES.
The unparalleled effects of this great restorative in all
complaints incident to females, mark a new era in the annals
of medicine. Thousands of stimulants have been ioveuted—
thousands of iovigorants concoctfa—all purporting to be
specified in the variousdiFeases and derangements to which
the delicate formation of woman render her liable.
EVERY WOMAN OF SENSE,
Who suffers from weakness, derangement, nervousness,
tremors, pains in the back, or any other disorder, whether
pecnliar to her sex, or common to both eexe?—to give the
invigorating Cordial a trial.
MARRIED FERSONS,
Or others, will find this Cordial aftor they have usad n tot
tie or two, a thorough regenerator of the Ini:!!
directions are to be found the happy parents of healthy t (T
apring, who would not have been so but for thin extraor.i
nary preparation. Andit is equally potent forth*' m»ny rb •
eases for which it la recommended. Thousand* of youru
men hare been restored by usingit, and boi in a single n -
stance has it failed to benefit them.
PERSONS OF PALE COMPLEXION.
or consumptive habits, are restored by the uso of a bottle or
two to bloom and vigor, changing the skin from a pule, ye’-
low, sickly color, to a beautiful florid complexion.
TO THE MISGUIDED.
These are some of the sad and melancholy effect* produ
ced by early habits of youth, viz: weakness of the IwV
and limbs, pains In the head, dimness of sight, loss of mus
cular power, palpitation of the heart, dyspepsia, nervous
irritability, derangement of the digestive functions, general
debility, symptoms of consumptions, etc.
Mentally, the fearful effects on the mind Ate much to b<
dreaded. Loos of memory, confusion of ideas, depression
of spirits, evil forebodings, aversion to society, self-dislru-t
love of solitude, timidity, etc., are some ol the evils produ
ced. All thus afflicted
BEFORE CONTEMPLATING MARRIAGE
should reflect that a sound mind and body are the mod ne
cessary reqniiites to promote connnhial happlne**; indr. d,
without these, the journey through life become* a weary
pilgrimaga—the prospect hourly darkens the view; the
mind becomes shadowed with despair, and filled with t >:*-
melancholy reflection that the happiness of kuothor be
comes blighted with your own.
CAUTION.

known to us, who haveiused the compound successfully
thereby corroborating the opinion of Its restorative cner
gy. \V«- know of nolbin? more desirable jn the way of per
t-unal comeliness and comfort than ajgood head of hair, and
any process by which this crowning ornament of the outer
man cun bo preserved, or recovered whan lost, without, in

serves to bo hailed and embraced with gratitude by all of
either sex, who aro unlucky enough to need its benefit.
We ton!; oi-cari .u tho other day to notice this valuable
compound in the above terms, and How republish what was
then sail, to show : gain our favorable opinion of it.
The foregoing is taken from the Petersburg (Virginia)
Intelligencer, and refers to an article which has for a time
been udveiii.-ted in our columns. We must confess that we
have been somewhat sceptical as to the remarkable effects
attributed to this famous “Ilair Restorer.” But our in
credulity has been greatly shaken within a day or two by
seeing n couple of certificates of well-known and perfectly
credible citizen* of tho neighboring town of Preston—one
of them the Cap’uiu of a New London whaling ship—to the
effect that, in each of these cases, a two or three months’
use of the “ Restorer" had actually brought out a new and
vigorous growth of hair upon the head-where it was before
bald—the baldness being, in one case, of more than twenty
years standing. Wa do not suppose It Is by any means cer
tain .that, because the application has been thus successful
in one case, or two, or a dozen, it is therefore certain to
prove equally successful in nil. But with such head-strong
evidence as tbs foregoing, very few bald beads, we suspect,
would willingly forego a fair trial of the “ Restorer.” All
such ‘*old heads” are informed that the article can be had
at Messrs. Lee A Osgood’s —Norwich Evening Courier.
