AMERICAN ART UNION
The Managers of the American Art L 7 ui-
On, New York, have fixed the 30th of March
for the tiineol the annual drawing of prizes.
The postponement, from the usual time, was
rendered necessary : from the lack of the or
dinary number of subscriptions, reckoned
upon at the close of the year, owing to the
Kossuth excitement and other causes, which
interfered with the arranrrements.
Those desiring to subscribe, in order to
have part in this year's drawing, will hand
in their names as early as possible. The
number of engravings to beArstributrd, are
imprecedentedly large and valuable./

ROW IT WORKS
We recently published a short extract from
the Report of Mayor Dow, of Portland, re
'peeling the operation of the late Liquor
Law in that city, and throughout the State.
We hare before us uow the whole Report,
la which we find many excellent thing , , not

i He thinks it no exaggeration to say that
rthe iluantity of intoxicating' liquors now sold
1 in Portland, except by the City Agent, is not
orie-fiftieth part so great as . it rya. seven
months ago, and the salutary Oleos of this
4 great improvement are apparent arkong the
people in all parts of the city: The amount
ut liquors consumed in the State,i , is pot one
quarter so great as it was seven months ago.
and it will become less very rapidly, as the
people in the country towns are now enfor
cing the laWmore extensively ant! vigorously
every day ; from many towns in the State,
toe illegal traffic is entirely banished. The
I number of persons who continue to sell
A !.!rortg drinks in the pity is now very small,
1 then are almostall foreigners, and sell with
great secresy and caution : an open rum shop
• or bar of any kind, is entirely unknown. ..
Thesalutary effect of the Law-in diminish
tag Crime, and relieving paverty,'and hence
.- lightening the expense of Tax-payers, is al
, :ready strikingly apparent... Comparatively
-very few have applied for admiision into the
Alms-house since the Law went into effect;
the commitments to the Wateli-house have
(alien off in a similar proportion,land of these,
~, he remarks, that, at least, nine-tenths corn

' eigners, who obtained the Means of intoxi
cation from the low shops er celiac, kept
. with great secresy by their countrymen.
Mr. Mitchell, who has been City Mission
,
,
,i ary for many years, and has had under his
i supervision front tix hundred and fifty to seven
hundred fa - milies.says that not one-twentieth
cf intemperate drinking can now be found,
; that existed when the ~ Maine Law " went
into, effect. Mr. Hadley, Minister at Laro.e,
. says that his intercourse is chiefly with the
1 .

pooreSi part of the population, who are'out
of the Alms-house, and especially with the
1 intemperate. ' For the quarter just ended.
Compared with the corresponding period end

they were during the same - tnotiths of 1850,
and the amount given in the three months of

but so it was reported; and should it be true; then,
indeed, I could not torbetir toe:claim: 0, my God!
howorten thy mine is profaned by them who bear
it upon tbeir.lips! I confidently hope that those of
whom I spiimik. are too religious not to feel revolted
at seeing the authority of religion misused to support
Russian oppression. This bun matter of conscience
and of. principle, and there 1 leave it, grieved in my
very heart, but trusting. to Religion and to God.
Matti also told that there is a movement -intended
In arienirite the citizens of the United States, of
Irish 'extraction, from cotmlenancing every !Pend
movement in Europe, hy.the suggestion that if Des
potism on the European Continent prevaiLs, the des
pots will be great enough to crush the power of
Great Britian.
I know full well that Fieetion. though finding an
ech6 in every man's breast. can by nobody be more
beloved than by such a !Anon as the breve sous of
Gavle Erin are. Irishmen loVe Freedom, so they,
cannot :side with Despotism. The fatherland of the

nett—that giant of patritokni and paragon of resist
less agitation for his country's sake—the land where -
Wolfe Tone bled. and Moore sung his heartirend-
Ireli Melodies. and his songs of oppresied na
tions—that land cannot forsake the came of 'Nation
al Freedom, and never will side with - Desfetism.—
But let me ask if all-overwhelming/Despolism
should indeed succeed to crush Albion, would it
crush Albion, to make Erin freer Would despots
right and gain—have they ever fought and gained—
to make nations free f appeal to" the , conscience
of Erin, to God and to history. lie who suleswith
despots will become as their slake.
Help the European Continent to national inde
pendence and self-government. For my country,
Lacy and Frame, this self government can be but
republican. Help by volicinanly. just. and resolute
atsitude, to devoiope tliat„tatblie opinion of England
ir4ilf, that it may side, out of whatever constdera
lain, with the cause of oppressed nations ;.,nuinst
sanguinary despotisirl. The despots crushed, the
sun of, freedom wilbeast its warimng rays over the
green -em of the sea also; the people of England
will becone just .f a large party of it feels Erin's
wrongs ; and thetuudamentul principles of your in

will prevail over the earth. '

WHIG STAR IN THE ASCENDANT
The siinile is old, but, nevertheless, appro
priate—as The darkest hour precedes the
break of day, so the severest reverses often
presage the most glorious victory. This has
been strikingly verified, on several memora
ble occasions, in the history of the Whig
party. The late general good fortune of our
opponents resulted, in many cases, from false
p-ernises used for electioneering purposes,
aad empty promises, made only to be broken.
.The people were deceived, and, wherever
an opportunity has sure occurred, they have
repaid these wire•workiog deceivers in their
own coin.
In the late Senatorial election, in Missis
sippi, the Whig candidate was elected by a
handsome majority. So, also, at the special
election last week in Washington county,
Md., to fill a:vacancy in the State Senate.
Mr. - French, the Whig candidate, was trium
phant. Then, there is a' Whig .INTayot in
Lancaster city—the first time a Whig ever
filled that office. These results are of small
importance, in themselvee . , but they augur
the gradual change of political feeling, now
progressing throughout . the country, and
which will only he fullylievoloped next Fall,
when the chivalric Scott leads the Whig
hosts ;to battle and to victory.

The observance of peculiar customs, on
this day, known best to lovers, is of very
ancient origin, though the modern fashion
of Valentine-making seems to have strangely
perverted its original object.
Two weeks ago, in order to " post "-our
readers in advance, we published the annex
ed extract from St. Valentine's history, giv
ing a concise account of the origin and . age
of these annual ceremonies: -
"It Was the practice in ancient Rome, during a
treat part of the month of February, to celebrate
the Luperealia. which were feasts in honor of Pan
and Juno. wheiviie the latter deity was named Feb
ruata. Febntalts, and Februlla. this occasion,
amidst a variety of ceremonies, the names ot young
women were put into aktox, from which they were
drawn by the men, as &lance directed. The pas
,ors of the early Christian church, who by every
possible means endeavored to eradicate the vestiges
if pagan superstition. and chiefly by some com
munications of their fOrtin, substituted, in the pre
sent instance, the names of particular aainti, instead
of the women; and as the festival of the Luperca
lia liaircommenced-about the middle of February.
the appear to have chosen Valentine'. Day for
cel;dirat mg the new feast, because it occurred nearly
at the same time.
Brand says. `• 1 have Mund unquestionable au
thority to evince, that the custom of choosing Val
entairs was a '-port practised in the houses of the
gentry to England, as early as the year 1476."
Our big American heart. full "o' the milk
of human kindness " for all the world, and
tf w rest of mankind, is likely to have as many
objects of charity as it can well take care of.
We observe that a petition was presented in
the Senate, on Wednesday, from two broth
' ers in New York, adopted citizens of this
country, asking American sympathy in behalf
of a brother erroneously sentenced to the Si
berian Mines, by the Russian Courts. They
also -tepresent that tour hundred others are
similarly ; doomed, owing to like errors in the
judgment of the 'Russian Courts. Much
laughter was created by a recommendation
to refer the petition to the Judiciary Commit
! tee, with instructions to inquire into a:4ex
pediency of pro4iding, by law, for writs of
ierror to the Supreme Court, to review the
judgments of the Courts of the Czar. We
I presume the petition was a hoax.

think, be regarded as the me r xt important bill, wijb

the Senate, was cawed, not so much-by any-ti4s-
May on the part of Senators to the bill. or rattier
the objeet eutitemplated by the bill ; but an honest
difference of opinion on the merit, of some of the
detail, in the net , LIA for instance, the_propriety - of
giving municipal ttlithorities;(Connty

Man credit, without referring the question of sub

But the bill has passed ; and the President of the
road, Mr. MILLER, expresses it as his confident
conviction that the requisite amount will now be
subscribed, and the road built terthWith. Its Con
struction may now be regarded as a certain end
fixed fact amd the tithe which shalt elapse ere that
yast ehannel of trade and traffic of the North shall
be opened up to us of the midland counties and of
the East, will alone be determined by the_prompt
ness and liberality of citizens intetested. This ittl
proi.=ement is of the first importance to Pottsville—
it Will open tip to her ad atinest boundless supply
of cheap lumber and prdvasions; and give her ad
ditional elements of industrY and prosperity, to au
extent which sonii. of fier best citizens have scarce
ly ventured to anticipate. This road will furnish
to our people sources el supply of articles, the gen
eral, scarcity of which at high current rates, here
tofore, have been the only great check to our sub
stantial prosperity.
That railway economy, and public interest de
mand that this Road should pass, through that sec
tion, must appear most clear to all intelligent men,
at all conversant with the physical geography of the
country. and who reco-nize the necessity of choos
jug the most direct antrshortest route' to Philadel•
phut. Front Stinburg, by way of Pott i sville, it has
the preference, by' miles over Harrisburg, in
point oidistance. But Philadelpluansand the,cotm
ties east of the Susquehanna should not rest secure
ni having this natural advantage. Baltimore and
the river counties from this point; will be warm
competitors with a consideration most weighty ut
the scale—that is. liberal subscriptions" It is this
kind of - interest which will atone he substantial at
building the work, and which may determine, to an
important extent. the direction of the road from
Sunbury. It by Pottsville, to the Reading Railway
it will add immensely in travel and miscellaneous
freight. With a third track they will amply re
ward loan laud Stockholder-. The new bridges
already built arc suited air a third track, The
Valley of the Schuylkill is Sur natural outlet, and
the Reading Railway, under its present superior
Management, will not fail to pay all interested.
Aside bout the abstract loesl benefits which will

will oPen up a huge and most‘mvaluable portion of
Northern, Pennsylvania , and the colossal trade of
