public interest, or to compel them to become
partners in any and every incorporated associa
tion, le ' a ‘nestion upon whioh mush - difference of
opinion exists. In this State, however, the ques
tion has•been deoide'd` by your own Supreme

our duty to submit without qtiestioping its autho

The decision thou proCeeds to sustain the
validity of the bonds. 'There is lie doubt that
the authorities of a city or county, have power
to bind their constituents in pursuance of an
act of Assembly. to subscribe to the capital
stook of a railroad company, and to provide
for the payment by issuing bonds therefor.
But there must not only be the authority to
snbscribe, but also to issue bonds in order to,
make, them valid. For this reason, Judge"
Gum decided that the bonds issued by the
city of 'Pittsburg to the 'Allegheny Valley
Railroad were invalid, there being no authority
given by the Legislature to issue these bonds.
In all the other issues, We believe distinct
authority was given to issue bonds in payment
for the subscriptions;and in the case of the
subscription made by the min* of Allegheny
I to the Allegheny Valley Railroad, the autho
rity to subscribe was given by the third sea
! tint' of the act of April 14,1853, wherein it is
. provided that the counties of Allegheny, &c.,
are, authorized to subsokibe to 'the capital
i stock or the said Allegheny Valley. Railroad,
and to make payments on such terms, and
in Such manner as may be agreed upon by the
said company, and the proper county. Then
follows a' Provision as to the' amount of the
sUbscription, and the manner in'which it is to
I be made ; provided further, et that whenever
bonds of the respective counties are given
in payMent of subscription, the same shall not
be sold by said. railroad company at less than
par value, and no bond shall be In less amount
than ono hundred dollars."
.By a subsequent enactment, this proviso
against negotiation under_par, Naas so far modi
fied as to permit anegotiation for such a price as
might be agreed upon lethe' railroad com
pany and the county commissioners. The
bond-holders are confident that this decision
of Judge Gam, will be sustained at Wash
ington, and, at last, long-deferred Justice will
bo done to them.
Atlantic Steam Navigation.
On Saturday, we noticed how Dr. LARD
NEVA declaration against the practicability of
Atlantic Steam Navigation, was negatived, in
a satisfactory and summary manner, by the
successful voyages, respectively from Bristol
and Oork.to New York, of the steamers Great
Western and Sirius. For the information of
such dreadfully matter-of-fact people as think
that wo should have burthened our notice of
Dr. Lumen with a full historical account of
,a previous successful steam voyage across the
Atlantic, we have to add that, in Dr. LIEBER'S
Encyclopcvdia americana, vol, xi., p. 878,
the fact is thus noted ; it One of these [steam]
vessels had been intended to make a voyage to
Russia; bat the greatness of the expense de.
tarred the proprietors from undertaking it.
This voyage'was performed in 1817 by the Sa
vannah;" It never hai been denied, by any
'writer, in any country, within our knowledge,
that Anderica not only is entitled to the credit
of havidirun the first steamboat with passen
gers, but •of , having successfully performed
-the first voyage, by steam, between the New
World and the Old. We are only surprised
that, once the experiment succeeded, twenty
yeari ‘ were permitted to Wasp before it was
repeated. Dr. LARDNER could not have been
ignorant of the voyage which tbe Savannah
made, and—though his Edinburgh Review ar
ticle said morn—may have- only meant that
Atlantic Steam Navigation was impracticable;
all the year round, and not likely to pay.
PaVic Amusements.
Now that the Opera-house is closed, and its
faded' performirs have' departed, ei3d that the
Frenob eeinpany'S flylng visit is ended—with a
hope, howevei;,of .thetr returning, ere long for a
longer period, we-have scarcely anything to'eay,
:this week; eieept to bespeak the favor of the pubilu
for various well-deserving performers who very
'Warmly beg the laver'ef their oeinpany, with as
many Wands as they may wish to bring on—to
their respective benefits:
At Arch-street Theatre, 'where some of the
good, old, standard' oomedies have lately been
well played, by a fine company, only one Benefit,
we believe, will take place this week. Mr; Whit.
ton; the Treasurer of this estabtlehmenti a cour
teous, talented, accommodating, and greatly es
teeinedgentleman, takes his Benefit on Friday
evening. Too modest a gentleman to think—what
all who know him feel—that his own merits and po
pularity would fill the house, on each an occasion,
beim actually got up a capital programme. Mrs.
John Drew, AliseEmma Taylor, Mrs. John Gilbert,
and Mr.Wheatley, in "Faint Beast never won Fair
,Lady." then that laughable old friend, 'the "Bet
tie Imp," and, to conclude, "A Nabob .for an
Hour," with Gilbert and Clarke to make the fun
We wonder whether Col. Whitton would sell his
benefit ea it stands? A speculator might give him
$OO for,the receipts; and have a profit at that.
At Walnut-street ,Theatre, Mr: Reach, 'the
Stage-Manager, takes, his Benefit this even lag
"The Wonder," with Reach as Don Felix;
Shewell as Col. Britton ; and Mrs. Duffield as
,Vic/ante, will open the ball. 'Then "The
Drunkard," the part of Edward Middleton by
Mr. H. A. Perry; and "Life in Philadelphia,"
in whioh, we are promised, theN Olen 'eccentrici
ties of Mr. Samuel Homple will be allowed full
scope: We aro glad of it, for Mr. 'temple is ac
tually the best low comedian in tie company, full
of 'llving'and genial humor. Mr. Reach will cei
tainly have a very full house.
Mrs. Leonard's benefit on Wednesday. "Faint
Heart never won Fair Lady''—" Pizarro," with
John B. McDonough as Rolla; and the new
force of "The Guardian Angel," the part of
Muggy by Mrs. Leonard. If the lady could not
attract a large audience, that old -favorite,
McDonough, in one of his best parts, would do it.
Mr. Sheviell, as Macbeth, on Thursday, for his
benefit. We like to see an aotor have ambition,
and Mr. Shewell'a Hamlet shows him to be a fine,
thoughtful, careful Shakeporian reader and per
former. ,
Lastly, for MU!. Thayer's benefit, on Friday, a
new play,- by Mr. J. Reef, called " The Under-
Current of Still Waters," and other varieties
Well. If Mrs. Thayer does not, have a crowd, we
shall be astonished.
MoDonough'a Gaieties flourish—at usual. His
very remarkable equestrian troop are augmented
by an equally surprising elephant, and there will
alio be seen a giant eighteen feet high—or conside-
rably less. Fanny Forrest, the ainger, and the
rest of the company will • perform, and there is
new dramatic version of " Macbeth," whiah•would
greatly astonish Shakapeare, could he see it.
At. the Aoademy of Masio, on this day 'Pieek,
Mr. George Hood will give a May Festival, called
the. Beauties of Flora, or the Language of Flow•
ere, represented by Wile Anna Winter, from the
Grand Opera, Paris. assisted by 230 little children,
from three to twelve years of age, who will re.
Spectively represent the whole•partorre of pretty
timers.- There will' be dinging, dancing, acting,
and we know not what. Aline Orchestra will per
form:; We imagine, from Mhtit we have heard of
the beauty and brilliancy of this May Festival,
that every take child (with its uffeotionate parents)
in:Philadelphia will bo " on hand " next Monday
evening, at the Aoademy.

Letter from ..OcealionttLgt
Jorrexpondezett of The 63118.1
. WASEEINUTONS nay 221869
The Now York Harald of yesterday,
,which
reached Washington last night, contains an amu
sing complaint-7first in its correspondence, and
next in an editorial article—to the offset that the
various departments of the Government aro full
of " leaks," and that the secrets of the Adminis
tration are filtered through these " leaks " into
the mouths of sick hungry recipients of news as
Forney'e Press, the Ne'w York Times, New York
Eventing Post, dm , duo A direct annuli is made
upon Mr. Clayton, of the Treasury Department,
and Mr. Browne, of the constitution, as being
the owner, each, of asmall "leak " The leading
cause of this outburst upon " lecke " in the depart
ments appears to be the attack of the entire Ame
rican press upon the appointment of the infamous
Wikoff Bennett does not hesitate to demand the
removal of 'ell who aro suspected, in the name of
Wikoff, and "the honorable-and.useful public
life, and the clear and spotless private life of Mr.
Buchanan." When it is rcoolleoted that Bennett
pays any price for intelligence, and that the Ad
ministration has (mused almost ail the recesses of
its policy, domestic and private, to be opened,
to his inspection—when be has agents in
I the pay of the Government in France, Mexico,
Spain, and, of course, in China, in the person
of Wikoff—and when the New York custom
house contains any „number of his attaches (all
these favors having been given in return for bis
antagonism of Mr. Buchanan, up to the moment
of his election,) this clamor about exposing secrets
Is laughable. Few secrets are-kept hera at Wash
ington—very few. There is a , leak In almost
every Sub-department of the Government; a leak
finanoial or a leak political. Mr. Bdchanan is
probably the leakiest man of his Administration;
and ysu have only to attend one of his receptions
and hear him talk to he convinced of the fast.
What he calls frankness Bennett cells /caking.
General OM frequently prates out of tune, while
Judge Black delights In nothing
.co inner as in
disclosing State [mores and quoting Shakspeare to ,
gaping. offloo-hunting listenere. What wonder
that the subordinates should catch the infoo ,
tion from the chiefs, and that the babbling of
the heads should be re-echoed by those who
may be paid by waiting correspondent?, eager to
gather every bit of gossip ! And what folly, in a
free country, alter all, to have anything to hide
from the people! Now, Wikoff's mission was in
tended to be a secret one, and the very attempt to
make it swat was a confession that it was not fit
to be made. That shameless Russian, Grand, now
lingering about foreign mute, and paid, at the
rate of eighteen dollars a day, out-of the same
aeoret.serviee fund, with Wikoff, was quartered
upon the Treasury in a no loss scandaloue manner,
but the thing came to my ears in one of my wan
derings through the State Department, and I
thought it no treason to print it. Seamy is ono of
the weapons of despotism, and should be avoided
by all democracies. What would. Bennett • say
If z told him that "Occasional" had a
good friend in every department of Mr Bu
ehanan'e Administration? Not men ,in high
places, but quiet, velvet.footed fellows, with their
ears cooked ready to (seta the drippings from the
oracular leaks opened all- around them. Not
eaves -droppers, either, but honest patriots, who do
not think that because " Occasional " dares-to
speak the truth he is therefore to be kept away
from all the good things going on around him No,
lam against smelly Did not King John, of
Franoe, in order to pay his debts, adulterate his
main and swear all the offteerk of his mint to seer°.
sy ? And why should our King James, in his
adulteration of the °hamster of the nation,.at
tempt to hide his offenses under a cloak? Let
" Occasional" say to the Illustrious Bennett, of the
Herald :
"And one thing more. to free ) ourself fron•foes
Never e secret to your foes diFolom ;
Secrete. with them, Lim loaded gang with boys,
Are never 'valued till they make a noble."
It is quite notorious that Westitott, your
postmaster, has been the subject of a series
of midnight tumults for the last two • years,
and that he only realized his danger when
ho felt the knife of the amnesic at: his heart.
I arc credibly informed that Iron. James Lundy,
late member from the Third Ocingrestional die
tile, in your city, Is likely to be fortunate enough
to fill the vacancy occasioned by Mr. Westoott'e
removal. This is well. Mr. 'Andy fought for'
Lecompton against the known wishes, twice since
expressed, of his constituents, and is, therefore, -
the right man for that place. Let me do. Mt
Buchanan the justice to say, that he does take
pare of his wounded, and particularly if they
happen to be new, friends. It is true that in this
he may be converting the !Aloes of the peopli into
hospitals, in which those maimed and broken in
the popular revolt may 10 effeotiiely cured and
cobbled up—but then grafted° is so rare 'a virtue'
in a public man! If Mr. Buchanan lb realty,de- ,
Sims of rewarding an honest- Deutberat, , Why
does he not give the post ofilee to Dr: eiTeCilaidok, ,
who was defeated at your election for. City
Treasurer, and" has many warm -friends.. in this
oily, and who introdneed Mr. Buchanan to the
members of the National Medical Convention
when this body sat last in Washington? Cris
Dr, McClintock to bo excluded from Presidential
favors because In the Philadelphia election - he is
reported to have said that he would not pontoon
a platform endorsing the entire Territorial polies ,
Of the Administration? The States Kights Demo
crats in Philadelphia, os I understand, geucrally
voted for Dr..MeCtintook, yet the burden of the
Aminietratien was too much rar him to carry, and
be fell under the weight. ' Why shall he not have
She poet office?
It is stated, on good authority, that an import
ant appointment ie shortly to be conferred upon a
citizen of Pennsylvania, whose name I am not yet
permitted to mention • 4
The Constitution explicitly denies " that Judge
Douglas and Mr. i3aehmian have had a fall ex
planation of their differences, and that the'result
of their interview le a coalition between the two."
Taken in connection with Mr. Beetianan's ap
proaching visit to North Carolina, this may be re
garded as a somewhat significant 'declaration of
war. -The President will not drilla the most popu
lar business to carry his animosities against Judge
Douglas into the old North State, where the "Lit
tle Giant" has troops of friends. •
Is it not a little amusing that while the Copteti
tietion denounces all Northern men who - stand
with Judge Douglas on the question of non.lnter,
ventlon, it has not yet dared to denounce the Do
mooraoy of Kentucky who rally around the Louis
ville Democrat and Vice President Breekinridge,
in 'support a doetrine practically the same? On
the other band, and as exhibiting the injustice of
mere partisanship, what can bo more disreputable
than the refusal of the Opposition papers in free
States to denounce the course of their political
friends in Kentucky and Virginia who take the
extreme ground of the fire-eaters of the South on
the subject of slavery in the Territories?
Quite a sensation is being treated in the de
partments at the news Iron New York that the
aloe-holders in that quarter are preparing to let
the Administration elide, and are setting their
houses is order for the future. In Now York, the
leaders know little, and care leas, about Demo.'
eratio principles; they look to success, and as the
Administration has not much success in its reper
toire to offer to Its dependants, yea-may look for
such sortempetle, before long, as boa not been soon
in many a day. OCCASIONAL.

finest establishment of the kind we have ever
seen, and we cheerfully add cur own endors*mont
to that of the Republican :
" Tho hotel has basis but recently built, and yet
it has already acquired a reputation extending to
;in ports of tho Minn Travellers passing to and
from. the West hays learned the foot that the goad
things of this world aro to ha found at the " Logan
House," Altoona, and as a =sequence many
make it a point to stop there over night, enjoy a
good supper and breakfast, a bed that is better
than morphine to induce sleep, and air that is as
pure and salubilous, if not as spicy, as that which
comes from "Araby the blest." . And then, too,
days can be spent thorn pleasantly and profitably,
looking at the many wonderful things that aro to
be found in and around tho mountains. Tim
wonder to us Is, that there aro not two or throe
