Refuse Coal.— A new article of peat

anthracite coal dust and asphaltum; it rea

It has been ascertained that one hundred

The coal itself. Its importance to faint
lies;•bMng cheaper than charcoal, and to
_steam navigation, as decreasing the bulk
while increasing the. intensity of the fuel .
will be-incalculable. It will tend. likewise
to reduce the price of coal, for if the

Refutation of a Slander.
The Allegheny Pernuenst recently
contained the following letter from Mr.
Grant, a member of the Ritner Democrat
ic Cor.yention at Pittsburg.
-To my Fellow Citizens:
I was for R tinier, and
,was chosen one of the
Ritner delegates for Washington comity, to at
teed the Convention in this city, on the 3d instant.
I del attend and took my seat in that Con
vention. I there heard a repetition of the eharg.
.es against Gen. Porter, And ivler maturely con.
sidenng the whole suhject, I was firmly and sin
cerely impressed with the belief that the charges
were false and corrupt. and that Gent. Porter was a
much injured man. .1 Cannot give my aid to such
a most contemptible and unprincipled mode of
electioneering: and after much reflection, I am of
opinion ,that the best Interests of our country
would be endangered 'if not destroyed by the
success of Joseph Ranter, I will theretnre go for
Democratic principles, 'and for the defence of
injured worth by supporting Gen, Porter.

FOR THE Al omits' JOURNAL,
What is the diferenee between a Gen
man and a Mechanic.
Before this qtiqstion is answered, I
would observe, it ; is no secret that Me
chattisnre despi,e l .l by many self conceit•
ed upstarts, and thlit they are supposed by
many to be unfit to sit in the Legislative
halls ,of our country, as Representatives
of any portion of her citizens: in fact there
is no limit to thrtir degraded situation, if
we are to judge from the bearing of every
fop, or "tight rigged" sprig of genoin y we
meet.
We hear some boast of their blood !
rgelting that our creator "bath made

We hear others boast of their fa nt y. f r

have those who *fluid deny a working
man the right of etijoying his own opinions,
forgetting the lever and spirit of our
Glorious Declaration of Independence:
that "all.men are dreated free and equal."

Their gentlemanly appearance, and by
pocrisy, are the only sulking evidence of
their birth, their blood, their descent, or
their wealth, which last, does not always
follow as a consequence, to the Irani of Arts

able object with many who despise us,
let us again revert to the question at the-,
head of this article : what is the diferenee
between a Gent/mita/sand a Mechanicl—,
I will now present the answer, by relating
a dialogne said to have been held on boars
of a steamboat,. which I gather from a
New York paper, except stone necessary
alterations to make it applicable to roil
present subject.
“But fur you" said Mr. Daniels, "thus

"Not a gentimaan I" said Mr. Daniel: ,
in astoaishasetit..
"No, I am not a gentlemen', lam a man
but not a gentleman, I defy you to prove
that I am a gentleman, i am a man, and
you are a gentl,man."
'.l-low so?" enquired Mr. Daniels.
"Because" said the Mechanic, "because
you wear good clothes 4. I dont." "Well'
said Mr. Daniels, but does clothing make
a gentleman!" "Yes" mid the Mechanic,
' , fir prove it." "My beard is long—my
clothes are thread hire—and my hat is
old." Now suppose I had $lO,OOO iii

goes in and says, Master, there's a man

"This proves that I am a man."
"I go hione,:-.shaye myself—dress my

a cen: in my pocket, and perhaps I am a
horse thief, or a swindler.—l.go to the
same door, and ring the bell—the servant

yes sir. Please to walk in. He shows me
into the parlor, and then goes to his mas
