oot of the Union. The settlement of this territori
al question embraces that of Slavery also, and
there may be a disposition in the House to
the “Wilmot Proviso," or something like it, to the
fifteen millions appropriation. 1
Mr. Buchanan has taken sides against the “W -

with him.in their hostility to Liberty. The Penn*

is doubtful even if there is moral power among the

from the free territory we are treating/ for with

SAFE STEAM XATIGATIOS.
Boakd or Tkadz.—At the stated meeting of the
Board, Tbos. Rakewcll, Esq, in the Chair, on
Thursday evening, the subject of steam navigation
upon our Western Waters was brought before the
bpard. Since the explosion of the A. N. John*
son,' Ihe citizens of Cincinnati, with the active con*
currence of the entire Steamboat interest, hove
been engaged in the disoovery of preventive means
by which,.life and property may be made more se
cure. . .
A memorial has been the result of thdir labor,
giving much valuable information. With the me
morial has been drafted a law, Intended to reg
ulate the navigation of boats, and the conduct of
pilots,.which we annex:
PilotaqiLaw.— lt is the opinion of practical
men, that many incompetent Pilots ore employed,
—both from unwillingness of owners to pay enough
for the services of good ones, and from the fact that
there is no legal mode, or established test by which
the competency of Pilots maybe knodrn, nor re
gulations for the -conduct of boats passing each
other on the river. To remedy its qualifications,
and establish certain’rules of river navigation in the
West, on these principles, viz:
1. By establishing a Board of Pilots for the exami
nation of Pilots. ; -
To providejbr the Registry of all competent
- 3. To provide rules for the conduct of Pilots,
While boats are passing each other on the river.
4. To make Owners and Captains responsible
for losses arising from the in competency of Pilots.
Pilots also responsible.
In accordance with these' principles, we recom
mend to yonr honorable body the passogeof a Law,
of which the following shall be the principal feat
ures: .1
&e. 1. That it shall be the duty of the United
States Collector of Customs, in each of the pons of
Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Louisville, SL Louis, and
New Orleans,’to appoint in each year, a Pilot of
character and standing, to act os President .of
a Board of Pilots. V
: See. 2. The President, after taking the requsile
oath, shall appoint six other Pilots of good stand
ing, who, after being sworn, shall serve in the board
for a year. Vt t
1 See. 3. Tbe Pilots who are thus appointed, shall
be constituted and styled a ‘•Board of Pilots," who
•hall have power to administer oaths, and hear testi
mony regarding the good or bad qualities, standing
or character of applicants for being licensed to the
office of Pilot, ond to grant licenses to those who,
from such examination, the Board judge* worthy.
See. 4. The' Board shall grant certificates of li
cense to Pilots.
See. 5. No certificate or license shall be granted
'to aay applicant without such applicant first estab.*
tubing to satisfaction of said Board . that' he is a
person of good character, of sober and industrious
habits, and every way capable of discharging tbe
duties of n first Pilot.
See. Q. A record of all the names of Pilots who
have license, shall bekept by tbe President; and on
adjournment uf the Board, said records shall 1*
deposited, with the Officer of the Customs, and be
laid before' the Board at its next meeting.
'■ Sec. 7.ltahillbethedatyof a a descend
ing boat, when nearing an ascending boat, in tbe
night, tq cause the engines to be stopped, when a
sufficient distance off to here his headway lost on
coming up with tbe ascending boat. The descend
ing boat shall, keep straight down with the current,
in as near theraiadle of tbe channel as possible,
until the following signal shall be heard from the
ascending boat, as it is the duty of the ascending
boat to do tbe dodging.
Sec. 8. If the ascending Pilot wishes to pass up
to the right,!! shall be his duty to bit the bell one
tap, and jvbeb answered.by one tap of the bell by
tbe descending boat, be wul have a right to expect
he or both understand each other'"and can bear or
shape their coarse accordingly. '<
See. 9. The tame rale shall be observed for pas*-
log to the left, except hit the hell twice hr going
left and oncefor going to the right
Ser. 10. If two boats should meet in the night in
a narrow channel, and after observing .Ihe afore
mentioned rales there stfllappears to be danger, it
shall be the duty of the ascending FOot to cause
his engine or engines to be stopped and keep his
boat waiving, ax instructed by the bells,. until bis
boat islanded or against a bar; and if all the above
precautions Will appear unavailing, it shall be tbe
duty of tbe descending Pilot to have’ his engiae or
engines backed.
. See. 11. Any Pilot who suffers himselfto be Re
lated to, or prevailed upou to ran a boat when and
where he thinks it not safe, shall be deemed an
-unfit person to have the license to Pilot, and- with,
he or they Who dictate or prevail, shall be ."held
amenable for all loss of life or property that may
oc<4r byso doingi ’
See. 12. The Pilot shall have complete control
of the navigation of the boat while sbeis under
way, but phi}! at all times slop his engines and
land the boat when the Captain so orders, if it-is
safe so'to do;-and if he (tbe Pilot) in his judgment
deems it unsafe to run; bo shall land at the first
safe place of landing, or come to anchor, as he may
deem best. ; . .
■ Your Memoriahsu further represent, that a simi
lar Law io reference to (he business and profession
of Steamboat Engineers is also necessary. But, on
this subject, the Report of Details hasahready teen
laid before Congress, bv petitions and memorial*
from the Association of Engineers in this city. Io
reference, therefore, to the
Esoixeeks' Law—-We oaly say, that as regards
any »a«r tout honorable body'may enact in refer
ence lo Steam Engineering, we deem it absolutely
essential that distinct provision should be made for
engineering oh our "western waters, -as it differs
esMalially from that of the East' For further in
formation os (bis subject, we would beg leave to
call your attention to the Supplemental Petition of
Practical Steam Engineers and others, of the city
of Cincinnati; printed by the Hour* of Representa
tives, at tbe Im session of the 2Sth Congress, and
to the UU No, 71 If. R- framed in accordance with
tbe recommendations therein contained.' '
Joshua Hanna Esq., introduced to (be meeting
Capt J. F. Fuller, and Sir. lewis Werdea of Cin
cinnati, one a practical pilot, and .the other an en
gineer, wbo hare been delegatcd to bear the me*
morial of Cincinnati to Cocpesa, and to make such
explanations as may be required The object of
their attendance .was 19 (he concurrence
of Pittsburgh in this movement to procure legisla
tion Jo correct a great eviL , To.give the meeting
a Correct idea of the legislation asked’by fcracio-
proposed law we have copied was read
and afterward* made the subject of discussion.
Mr. John McFaden disagreed with the law, ftu
tsmoch as it appeared to take (he control of a boat
from tbe Captain, and this would take trom tbe pas*
sengers, one whom they would be glad in trouble
lo consult with. He was opposed to a law remo
ving responsibility from the Captain. ;
. It was fßggested that law only made the pilot
resjjcnsible when ib# frpcl was nadcr weigh. Mr
N. B. Craig.then suggested that a law
firm to the pilot the control bC tbejxtff •'>'• >. ~ ••'
him. by custom when in •* ' t
was the case at tk» east. f ’ ’
very promptly’ replied ty*/,
oBeL
{The niantparftr^:
the east is ia v
So'diflerenljrv
nty is also given by refusing to insure an */o«u*
note Captain-, or to employ an ignorant , pilot so
that ii wfllhe seen that public opinion and private ■
enterprise controls the eastern pilots, and not -cur
tom, or both united.] ;' * -
Mr. Bakewelisnggested and went to the heart of
the matter by| saying .that, the proposed law to have
pilots and engineers examined as to their qualifica
tions x Would be useless, without the final decision
as tojthew qualifications rested with the Boards- of
Trade and Commerce in the various cities. As.ev
ideneeof this he would call attention to theinspec*
l ion now prescribed by law of boats hulls and en*
ginea. It was notorious that no competent man
had filled the place here and the law was a nullity.
Jadges of Courts were not the men to make these
appointments. ;We wanted practical men up
on, such matters, and not mere politicians.. We
wanted too, men in business .who know what com
petence as on inspector meant.
The discussion was taking rather a wide range,
when oqc of the gentlemen front Cincinnati -rose
to explain. They came to ask. Pittsburgh to aid
them in procuring proper legislation, not to dismiss
the question of what kind of regulation was no
cesaairy. After this explanation had brought the acr
tioQof the meeting back to the main question, a
resolution was jpossed seconding the object for
which the Cincinnati delegation are now en route
for Washington,
Besides Uiis resolution other measures were ta
ken to give tbe subject the attention it deserves.
A committee was appointed to confer with the
commanders, engineers and pilots of tbe Pittsburgh
steam marine, iwbo are to make a report next
Thursday evening at tbe Board of Trade Rooms,
at which tbe merchants, engineers and pilou are
requested to attend.
The Committee appointed consisted ofF. Lorenz-
Mr. Livingston, J. Hanna, W. JTotteo. CapL May’
and N. B. Craig. The repart of tbe Committtcc and
the action of the Board meeting, will bo embodied
in a memorial to Congress.
Taxis, Cojtsussioxs, rm —On motion of Mr.
McFaden, a Committee of three was appointed to
prepare a tariff.of charges to be mado for sales,
purchases, forwarding and other purposes, similar
to rules in force in other commercial cities. The
Committee named is composed of Messrs- Caro th
ere, Von Bonnliorst and Waterman. The movement
is a good one and its successful prosecation must
be of very great advantage to the trade of the city.
WmnioBLAXD Couxrr.—The Convention was
held on the 22dj and the delegates to Hamsburgh
are: sent as they should be, unpledged to the sup
port of any man. We copy frqtn the resolutions
thefoUowing—
RttUved, That in 2540, it became necessary to
drive out of office the political ‘•rets and mice”
which were destroyinglne provender in the public,
crib, nndertbe? control of Mr. Von lluren. it be
comes indispensable now to drive out tbe Tom
Cats, who are of no other use than to get others to
fighting, and then fight amongst themselves. Their
friends should endeavor to curb this tear spirit, ere
they meet with : the esr-aslrophe of the" two imUr
viduals, so eloquently described by one of the
b’hoys, tliat they “ate one another clanc up, all but
the tails."
Rerolved, That Gen. Zachary Taylor, the gnl
lant old Warrior who **never surrenders”—who,
by bis courage and his energy overcame all the
obstacles to his successful entry into the heart of
the enemy's country, there to be stopped until some
pretext could be found by the Cabinet at Washing
ton for censuring the victor for all bis battles, mer
its, and will receive, the thanks of bis fellow-citi
zens for his skill and bravery under all tiio trying
circumstances by which he has been surrounded
byaweak, wicked and envious set of,political
tricksters. j
Btjolred, Tbfit Gen. Winfield' Scott, by his hu-;
mnnity and forbearance, amidst the din of conflict
and of victory, no less Uian by his splendid generi
olship in battle, his foresight and decision in camp,
and his acquirements os it civilian, merits the grat
itude and admiration of the American people; and
they will take care to render futile the attack*
wl
/hich Itave been tuade upon him by President Polk;
md his party. ' ’
Resolved, That the splendid talents, the eminent
public services, the lolly patriotism and the great
private worth .of HENIIY CLAY, entitle him tn
the gratitude of'all American citizens who love
their country. The Presidential office can shod no
lostre around a inane known and revered wher
ever the light of civilization has dispelled tlie dark
ness of error and of crime; and succeeding Rener*
attooii in reading the history of this ‘•model Repute
lie,” its progress, and, we fear, its ultimate dissola
lion ana destruction, will point to hit name and
say, that thrice be saved it, and yet, like Marcus
Manlius of Rome, he was condemned by a profli
gate people for the services he had rendered to tli>
state. i
R/jalrtJ, Thatiwe express no preferences forel
tber of these distinguished citizen*, whose name*
Lave beeo' mentioned iu connection with the Pres
idency; but we' pledge ourselves to abide by llie
decision of the National Cooveatioa to wxinUe
in the City ofPfailadelphia, on the 7th of June
next, whether the nominee be Clay, Scott, Tay

MojiTOouEtr jCorrrr.—The Convention has
been held; and the result most gratifying to all
good Whigs. It. is with the greatest satislaction
that we see the most perfect union awoDg the
.Whigs of jMontgotnery, and say that they will no l
waste their strength by divisions among themselves*
They go lor the interests of the great Whig party,
and for the man the Whigs of the Union select for
President, 'The Resolutions say.—*
That we are fororable to the nomination pf a
candidate! pf the next Presidency, in the usual
manner by n National Convention, trusting that
they will select a |raan whoso sentiments are not
unknown, and into whose, hands we may intrust
with confidence the principles ol the Whig party.
That we already behold in tho pressure of the
times, and the .decline of our Manufactures, (be
natural and expected fruit of the Tariff of l?li>.
and we still cherish the feeling,.'tint the lesson of
sad experience through past and present disasters,
will yet lead *to ‘the permanent establishment of
sound republican principles by the ultimate triumph
of the Whig cause.
That when ike time 1 for active cooperation
arrives, we will again be found at our posts beneath
the banner of our party, prepared to do our daily
duty aafreemen, as as Whigs.

The preference which we have ex
pressed ini favor of Pittsburgh as the roost suitable
terminns of the road, for the present, have been ae
companies! with‘tho reasons therefor, so fully set
lorth and so often, that no further reference to that
subject need now be made./ Those reasons,'bow
ever, now that there is no probability of reaching
Pittsburgh by the means and. cooperation of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, whose re
source* are to be applied to the extension' towards
Wheeling, are still in force, and we think potently.
so, in behalfof the organization of a separate com-;
pany with authority to construct a roaafrom.Carn

hereafter with die 'Pittsburgh and Coanelsville
Road. We'are glad to see that & movement' to
tbal.elTect has been made in the Senate of Mary
land. As there seems to no ground of objec
tion to such a measure, we entertain the confident
hope that n clinrterfbr tho purpose referrtd to,with
liberal provisions, will be granted by tho Legisla
ture promptly..,:
It is known that the Fittsbnreb and Connelsville
road is now in progre»s in the Valley of the Yough
iogheny. As the route ,ofit is through a produc
tive country-inhabited by a substantial and weal
thy population, Andos the characteristics of a val
ley ronte furnish easy grades and many facilities of
construction, it would not be unreasonable to hope
tlrnt by the steady labour of an industrious people,
along a line where materials are cheap audViuun
dant, tho road may be completed from Pittsburgh'
to Turkey Foot, (which latter point is within forty
five mile* of Cumberland by the National road.)
before a very long period. With a charter granted
by our Legislature, nt its present session, orgapf
xrog a company to complete tho connection from
Cumberland, the strong affinities of trade which
draw our Pennsylvania friends 'towards Baltimore
may iusureaconUnuouscommunicatiouwith Pitts
bureh in due time. „ ,
There art* no rivalries of interest here. Tho
Baltimore and Ohio Company, devoting the earn
ings of their road to its extension towards Wheel
ing, must find their resources increased in propor
tion as. the means of communication with Pitts
burgh ure perfected; for nil the trade whiqh may
conic by a branch road from that quarter will be
thrown upon the. Main Stem at Cumberland to
swell the fcccipts and augment the business of
that Stem.—^-Aniericon of tbc2\st. *

To tht Kditors of the Pitttburch Gazette:
The ground appropriated for a college between
Second and Third streets, in our city, was consid
ered a bad location, when surrounded by building*
and a dense population. After the buildings were
destroyed by the great fire, the trustees very \i*i*e
ly and judiiiiouriypureliascd a site on tlw beautiful
Allegheny river, on which the present-butfliings
areerecledj Whoa the Duquejne Way shall be
improved ami widened, trees mlanled -and ojher
improvement* completed, the Western Univei&y
will enjoy the western breezes and pure air from
our beautiful river*, and having a street on tine
sido and ai| alley in the rear cannot be hemmed
in or discommoded by a deose population. It is
very however, that the friends and pa
trons of thd institution, and those who have the
will and the means to aid Seminaries of Learning,
should contribute funds for tbe purchase of addi
tional ground on the-river, and to endow one or
two more professorships. In this way the cause'of
science and learning would be much better promo
ted, than by removing the students and professor*
to the crowded vicinity of the Court House and
the *‘lnns ofCourt.” The efficient and practical ad
iniuitfiration of its allnira by the present Professor*
and Teachers,-luis attracted the attention and de
serves the aid of all friends of a liberal education.
The establishment of n high school connected with
our public schools, would contribute to tbe success
of the University, by increasing the number of
scholars prepared to pursue the higher branches
of science.’ Any attempt to change the . present
kvatiou of the buildings, or to mix up tlie alfairs of
tbe institution withjtbe public schools would pro
duce discord and contusion prejudicial to its use

THE TAYLOR FESTIVAL.

J The Chinese saloon of the great Museum Build*
mil wnsan Tuesday thronged itl an early hour io
the eveninj:, the occasion being the Ion? expected
? festival in ihonor of Washington’*’ liirlli-ttay and
the Battle of Buena Vista. Fivp tables were spread
1 the whole length of the immense Saloon, capable
t of accommodating seven hundred aud seven per
. aims. The President of the evening was Josiah
l liandell, Km].
'After the dinner had been discussed and silence
restored, the President rose and said, that the as
, semblage was cnllc«l together to celebrate two of
r the most interesting events in the history of our
country. :The llfith anniversary of the birth of
Washington, and the first anniversary of the buttle
i of Ihienu Vista. To Washington history afforded
I no compeer. Ho then alluded to General Taylor
tuul his HcliieyeinemsL lie snuMhat he was vie*
: toriotis beyond a parallel, and in rctarn for it lie
: wus left without aft army. Gen. Santa Anna had
. announced to the Mexican Congress that on the
1 22d of February, the birtlt-day of Washington, he
would attach the American army with' an over*
. whelming force, hoping that, on that sacred day
f success would crown his anns. The resalt is
, known. Victory rested on our little army. The
f God of battles was in our favor. Let m* return him
i thanks, (iratcfulns we feel to the heroof the four
first great virtorio of the American arms, those
i battles clotio would not be sufficient to entitle him
i to nur suffrage*. lie is a Whig.
The speokerthen nlluded to the origin of the
Wmg party, saying that he wnj present at its for
mation in the State House yard, under die mi*
pices Of the Hon. John Sergeant. He then allud
ed to the vicissitude* of the iwrty, jt* struggles. 4:

‘ present Gen.-Taylor u* a Whig candidate. That
he is a Whig, lot his letter iu the possession of Mr.
Harrow nttpM. Thai,,lm is a Whig of the school of
Henry Clti’y. {EnthnsiaMfic and long continued

That he is a Whig, let the admonitory tone of the
proas of oar opponents determine, why.'do we
find the tone of that press most terrific ngn>n,»t

Councils of New York, by an unanimous vote of
both branches,' irrespective of party, have in (lie
most complimentary manner,* invited Henry Clay
to visit that city and receive the generous hospital*

niittccof the Councils reached. Philadelphia on

do from both parties.
