that the natives of. California have ever

Gentlemen and ladies, whether related® not; may
be seen daOy and hourly walking the street*- arm

York Tribune -.1; i * •
“A bill has recently pa*sed,the Senate of the
TTnitoa frati-a, and i« m«r in «ha Wnii—■ of
of Representatives, to extend the patent of Jethro
Wood fori seven years, which he'obtained in|lBl4,
and. renewed in 1619, claiming to have invented
thc:caxUron'ploughshare, lee. This bill, proposes
to grant to the heirs of Jethro Wood the privilege
of exacting filly cents from the manufacturer for
every cast-iron plough made in the United Stated,
for seven yean after the - jiossage of said bill
. : As there are about four-millions of - fkrmers and
at present in the United States, and as
each won Id require on an average at least one
plough every lour years, this privilege would be '
worth' half a million of t debars annually, all of
which would be taken from the bard earnings of
the planter and farmer! And whatmakesthe mat
ter more unjost is;, that the interest of the heirs of
Wood in this patent has been purchased for a men
song; thus nearly'the whole benefit of it will inure
to a company of needy speculator*. v
But Jethro Wood, as l shall proceed to show,
Vras not the original inventor ofthe cast-iron plough
share, nor did he ever improve the plough in'the
slightest he was consequently entitled to
to no merit in this thing, and much less to a patent;
'and, had the facts of the case been known to the
Commissioner of Patents! in 1814, he would not
have granted him one, orirenewed it in 1610; nei
ther would the .United States Court have confirmed
him in it after It had been granted.
The cast-iron ploughshare was invented by Rob
ert Ransome, of Ipswich,'England, and he obtain
ed a patent for it in 1785, twenty-nine years before
Jethro-Wood obtained his. The cast-iron plough,
with, the share and moldboard in two ports, was
kept for sale by Peter T. Curtenius, in this city, as
.early as ISOO, and in use! in this neighborhood.—
Jethro Wood undoubtedly obtained his knowledge
of the cast-iron tsbare from one or the other of
.these; for the cast-lroh plough as a whole,jand in
.separate part*, will be found figured and described
in almost every Eacylopedia and work on agricul
tural implements, published in Great Britain, since
1790. These works soon found their way into the
United Stales,and it can .bo proved by the testimo
ny of the intimate friends or Jethro wood that he
’’was familiar with these publications.
ThfcTuatofy of the cast-iron plough and ill im
provements Is simply this:
James Small, a Scotchman, constructed n cast
iron, plough on trne mechanical principles as early
u 1710, and was the first inventor of the -fcast-iron
; mold-board.j Robert Ransom, of England, invent
ed the cast-iron share in 1755. An English former,
in the county of Suffolk, invented the cast-iron
plough complete, in tirw iutinet parts, war well,
known and in use in Great Britain, and figured aud l
- described in nearly every work of anv value aince
published on the subject of plough and agricultu
ral-implements,
" Without any knowledge of these improvements
of the cast-iron plough in Kngtsmt, Charles New
bold, of New Jersey, about the year 1790, (ook up
the (dough with a view jof improving it in the JU.
States. On the 17iK\>CJuoe, 1797, he obtained a
patent for the cast-iron skeletoa, in one
piece complete. Subsequently he'malhrhis-plQughs
with n cast-iron mold-board and land-side, aadat
lached a wrought-iroo share to it; Shortly afier
this he often spoke of still further improving his
plough, by substituting the cast-iron share. But
having spent upwards of $30,000 in his improve
ments and efforts to introduce it into use in tbe U
tuted States and elsewhere, he got discouraged and
gave up the business.' I
Peter T. Curtenius, ;as stated above, kept the
cast-iron plough for sale in this city, the share and
mold-board in separate parts, as early as 1800; 'Who
.was the manufacturer <of these 1 tun unable to
learn. ;
la ISQt, X think,JDavid Peacock, of New Jersey
obtained a patent tSr a plough, the tnoliPioard ana
hwieide of cast-iroiiand in separate porta, lie
•abare of wroughi'iron He copied Mr.
Newbold's plough in put, £>r the privilege of which
be paid him $l,OOO.
Ini 614 Jethro Wood obtained a potent for a
plough, tbe moldboud, landcide. and share in three
porta and of cast-iron. He was wnOtar with New*
hold a and Peacocks ploughs; and his waa a bung*
ling-imitation of their*,: and not near so perfectin
: form and construction as the old Rotherham plough
which hadjbecn inuse In Grett Britain upwinla of
seventy years bcibro Wood obtained his patent
It is said that the cast iron plough in three parts,
vie moldboard, land-side, and share, was in use in
Virginia previous to ISI4, and that Wood was a
ware of jti
With these Girts before them, the public will cow
see bow great an injustice it would be for Con
gress to extend tlw patent of Jethro Wood, and
give his heirs, or rather a company of greedy spec
ulators. the privilege for seven years of exacting
fifijr cent* pec plough from every ooe engaged in
their masulscture.
I bope these fact* will be widely <Saaemu&lcd by
the pWMwlhroagbout' tbe United State*; for the
hard-working tanners, and planters oogbt to be im
mediately apprized of what so vitally concerns
them. As the bill is still pending before the House
of Representative*, let all those opposed to injus
tice and special privilege* take pains to call the at
tention of every member to the subject, so that tbe
iniquitous measnre may be defeated.

Lvrarxcoc Mexico.— The stetnisbup McKim
arrived at New Orieacs on the Gth ia*L, with ad
▼icea'from Vera Crux.
It is positively asserted by merchants, who are
usually well informed respecting affairs in the inte
rior, that Gen. Lane was moving on Orizaba with
five hundred cavalry.
*Tbe Vera Crux Free American ofthe 26th its tea
.that^pLfWhipple had arrived from the city of
Mexioo, bringing news that Orixabs had' been ta- r
ken and was in possession of a body of troops de
spatched from the Capital for that purpose.
The frsia which leu the city of Mexico on the
Ifith January arrived at Vers Crux on tbe 27th,
without molestation. jThere were about two hun
dred wagons in this train.
It was rumored that Mr. Trist had had frequent
interviews with tbe Mexican Commissioners; and
that certain terms had been agreed upon, but noth
ing of sn authentic nature had transpired.
CoL Hays, with one hundred Rangers, and a few
Illinois volanteers, reached Teotihuscsn an the
12th ult. in pursuit of Padre Jaraute. While repo
sing at ad inn, with their horses unbridled and
unsaddled,-Jarata and a party of Mexicans came
suddenly upon CoL 11. and his men, and a severe
contest ensued. Eight Mexicans were killed.
None of the Americans were injured. The horse
of Jarautis was seen after the fight with blood run
ning doWo.hia sides, and it is thought that his rider
received several severe wounds.
' Exfusoixo hlx. Ashma.Vs Rxaoumox—'The lot

tbe words of the amendment of
feredand adopted,'by the House, to the resolution
of thanks to Major General Taylor, on the third
dsy of January, ISIS, containing the declaration
Host the War (namely, with Mexico,) was unnec

with Mexico on the basis of Indemnity, and
should be expunged from the journal;.and that the
Speaker cause the same to bo expunged from the
journal of the House ion the passage of this reso
lution. |
At the suggestion of several members. Mr. Thorn pj
•on subsequently modified tbe resolution, so as to
insert the. word rescind, instead of “expunge," and
making tbe phraseology of tbe resolution in other
respects’ conform to the amendment.

3b the Editors of the Pittsburgh Gazette
I saw it announced some time since that the
Court had appointed Mr. James 3. Craft, as Com
missioner Jo represent tin's District in the Revenue
Board, to meet in Harrishurgb, on tbe ISib inst—
, At first: l could not comprehend what was meant
by a revenue- board; but upon ittquiryof one of
our foriaer representatives, I was informed that
this board Is comprised of one member from each
Judicial District in the State; that they determine
the amount of Stale tax each county roust pay.—
Now, I have no disposition lo find fault with tbe
appointment of Mr. Craft;. on the contrary, I be
lieve tbe.Court has made rjudiciou* selection; but
I thiokt'and think in commonwiih iny neighbors,
that at least one of tbo commissioner* from this
county should attend tbe meeting of the Board, and
>ft Mr. Craft in protecting the interests of tbe
county.! He cannot bavo tbe same knowledge of
the assessments of real estate inthe Various, dis
tricts of the county .that they possess, nor of the
mode of assessing slooks, bomjs, mortgages, profes
sions, occupations, foe.' Then let at least .one of
our commissioners be there to advise with him,
and in protecting the interests of tbe tax
payers of tbe county, for it is the opinion of mtny
of them that our property is assessed sshighostbat
of any oountv in tboState. Then, why should our
proportion of ihe Suite ux be increased without at
least making an cflort to prevent it

... Since my. last, in. the' Honse of Represen
tatives the President’s Message has found a
reference from the Committee of the Whole
on the State of the Union to the several
standing Committees of the House. This is
the usual custom, though it is hot often so I
long delayed. The many and important
public questions, however, now before the
priblic, has left Congress brim full of discus
sion; and if these questions were not enough,
the fact that a President is to be elected by
the people in the course of the present year,
would afford reason enough for the debates
which have taken place, and which are like
ly to continue for a long time to come. The
session, too, will doubtless be a long one,
and no one dreams of its'being closed before
the National Conventions (the one meeting
the 22d of May and the other the 7th of
June) hare nominated their candidates:-?-
Till then there will be no real harmony Wf
tween either of the parties as to persons, and
certainly none in their own ranks.
The Peace rumors which caused so much
speculation and encouragement the week
past, have subsided, in a measure, and l
fear we ore in reality no nearer a peace than
.at the commencement of the session of Con
gress. This is melancholy, since it is a con
ceded fact that peace is< most desirable for
the welfare of our own country, and. for the
benefit of the enemy. Hie Peace Petitions
which have been presented to Congress in
the course of tlie present session, have been
immense in the number of the signers. The
whole body of the Society of Friends, from
tlie for East to the far West, have prayed
Congress to take such measures as will in
sure peace. Tlio Unitarian Societies of the
East have'memorialized Congress almost in
a body ; but most of the petitions are miscel
laneous in their -character, and signed by
persons of all'creeds, and probably by many
of no religious sect
In regard to slave territory, various me
morials have also been presented. Senators
from the North and the South also continue
to urge their respective views in regard to
any territory which may be; annexed to the
Union. There are no less than four sets ol
these resolutions nowbefore the Senate,—
two for the South the right to ex
tend slavery over^^ptterritory which may
be annexed, and two denying the right*—
Congress will hardly act upon any. of these
subjects, however, except in the practical
form pf a bill annexing territory. Iftncha
bill is'voted upon, an attempt will certainly
be made to add to it the Wilmot proviso.
The Ten Regiment bill is moving slowly
through the House of Representatives at the
rat£ of a speech a day, or one in two days.
f-n«t week there were three Democratic
speeches for the 101 l . and one Whig tpeech
against it. This week thus far there have
beat two to one. One of these speeches,
however, was of a peculiar character, and
from Mr. Hunter of Virginia. It made open
war upon all ideas of conquest, or dismem
berment, or annexation, and portrayed in
vivid colors the effect of wars of conquest
upon a Republic like ours. The member,
however, was. willing to vote supplies to
carry out the policy of Mr. Calhoun, for a
line of defence, and of the withdrawal of our
troops for that purpose to such a line as may
bo agreed upon. This speech is the only
ono which has sustain edilr. Calhoun’s poli
cy out and out, though them are many, 1
thinkj who would be glad to see it adopted.
What Congress may do in reference to the
war, continues as obscure a subject as ever.
The House have passed joint resolutions
: of thanks to both Generals Scott
including officers and men under their-cora
mand, and with gold medals to each, to bear
suitable inscriptions of their services. These
votes were unanimous, with the exception
of Mr. Giddjngs of Ohio, who does not con
cur in tho bestowment of thanks upon mili
tary officers for military service. He pro
posed rather to thank Albert Gallatin for his
efforts in behalf of Peace, and suggested a
direction to that end, which wax well re
ceived by Mr. Adams, one of the old com
patriots of Gallatin, and several of the Whig
members. It was laid upon the table, how
ever, as inappropriate. It would seem as if
there was a large Peace party springing up
in Congress, as well as in other parts of the
country, for every day the friends of Peace
propose bolder measures and more forward
opinions.
Tfao Supreme Court room has been
thronged all this, week, interesting coses in
Bankruptcy being under consideration, and
Messrs'. Webster and Clay among the speak*
era. Very rarely lias the Supreme Court,
though its decisions are always final; and
public questions always the subject of con
sideration, been the scene of so much inter
est as during the present session of Con-.
