CITY ASD COUSTY SCRIP.
The feeling in regard to this description of cur
rency , was more buoyant yesterday. The prompt
and efficient action of the various corporations
pairing the issue for its speedy redemption, has in
a great measure restored the confidence of the
public, and it passes now more freely than for *
few days previously.
.Our readers will see, in our advertising columns,
that the City Treasurer is now prepared to carry
out the provision* ol the Councils, for ibe redemp
lion of a portion of the scrip of this city, and the
substitution of bonds for ibe remainder, as fer as
called on. In a short time the valuable city pro
perty on Grant and Fifth streets will be sold, which
will absorb a large amount —and when it is re*
collected the immense amoont which is required
for taxes and water rents, there can be no mistake
in pronouncing it an enl-rely safe and reliable cur
rency.
Allegheny city, as our readers will see by ordi-
nance in another column, has made provision for
redeeming throe-fourth* of her issue at once, by
the r Bl * of property, and the remainder will soon
be absorbed by.taxe.«. The property to be sold on
the 7lh of May,is the sun valuable in the city, and
the unquestionable. The'estimale of good
judges is, that it will briug from $130,000 to $150,000
It is situated within the public square. There are
forty lots, running -from the market place, which is
200 feet Wide, 140, feet each'to a street 60 feet
wide—thus affording two capital business frontr.
The tots Are 20 feet wide. There can be no doubt
in our mind, of the entire safely of the Allegheny
scrip, and that it will soon be as current as ever.
The only remaining scrip is that of the County
of Allegheny; and we can also refer onr readers
to an -advertisement of the Commissioners, which
promises that'the county issues shall be speedily
redeemed. These promises we feel assured will
be strictly falfiUed. Any one who is conversant
with the wealth of this county, and its abundant re
sources, eon feel do hesitation in pronouncing its
paper as safe as that of the Bank of Pittsburgh.
It gives u> pleasure to make these statement.-
We are jeatoutf of the honor and credit of our
cities' and county, and we most confidently assure
holders oflheir scrip, that they incur no danger
by retaining it, and that the probability is that it
will pass as readily a* ever at aa early day.
He Poet, of yesterday, has the following sen
lance:
M He, (editor of the.Gozette,] has not the moi
courage to oondemn a single measure of the pn
ent slavery administration.”
We should be glad to know what u single mi
sure ” uf the present administration deserves c<
damnation from the hands of the Gazette, in
of its professed principles and previous conduct
If there is any, we have been too dalt to di»
ii, although we have watched the conduct oi' the
administration with the deepest interest, feeling
that the honor of the Whig party, and our own
honor as a humble member of it, was intimately
connected with its doings. When we fail to ceu*
cure, where censure la deserved, it will f«3 time
enough.for the-Post to twit us with a waul
al courage. We bad the moral courage -io con
demn (be conduct of John Tyler in no, {equivo
cal manner* when we had the public pricing, and
for which ho removed it to the Post. When had
the Post the moral courage to condemn a tingle
act of Jama* K. Polk pr of hit administration ?
It ill becomes the PbrJ to call the administration
by the deodminatiou of “ slavery," after support*
ing that of John Tyler, and Jamee K. Polk.
The aastftipUOQ is wholly gratuitous. With re
gard to seplional divisions, the administration is
eminently conservative The North certainly has
no reason to complain, either in the men selected,
or in the apices they HU. Gen. Taylor, in this, has

In the meantime, the work a stopping It
is going on just as if Mr. Ritchie was not. and Mr.
Polk had never been. Thus on Saturday, two of
Mr. Polk’s latest creations were extinguished. At
the eleventh hour of his day, he had the decency
to appoint a District Attorney, and a Naval Officer
for New York. The first is an office worth twen
ty thousand dollars a year, the latter about four
thousand. There was no pressing need of eith.
er of them. Mr. J. Prescott Hall, who was
made District Attorney, is well known as the pa

To tl* Editor of the Pitteburgk Gioeilt
Feikxd White It appears trom certain publi
cations m yoor city papers, thßt some of the ctu
sens ol Pittsburgh are inclined to favor a Railroad
route from your city westward, crossing the Mo.
nongahela'in Pmnborgb ; theoce throogb Wash
ington county, to cro« the Ohio river at Steubenr
ville ; tbenco winding through the hills of Jeffer
son, Harrison. Tuscarawas, Holmes, aod Knox
couoliet to Columbus. Persons who favor this
route most certainly know hot little about it—must
kaow Ituje about the face of the country, or
of the products of the counties above named, or
if they do know, must care bat little for the ex-
pense, and,still lets for the interest of the stock*
holders, etst and west of your ciiy. It must be
lyjtjwn to ybem that a train of cars can not be^ con-
veyed in boats, with any kind of safety or success,
across the Ohio at Steubenville, where.it rises aod.
ells-from fifty to sixty feet. A d«-k or wbari
Way could not be constructed to rise and ful 1 so

than half of the expense, and very little locrease

On our way down to Laguna we toorhed at Sisal,

pav 525 per bead for them, and the proceeds are
applied to the carrying on of the war—thrt is, to

A letter from Independence, Missiouri, of date
April 7, has'the following account of Pennsylvania
companies about to cross the plain*.
Pennsylvania has six companies in tbe field,
equtped and ready to move. The first is styled the
“iron City Rangers." and composed as follow*. A
W Brockaway, A Rudolph, James B Mitchell, T B

drawn by mules, and each man, in addition has a
mule to ride and a mule to pack with. Their ob
ject is to seek for gold, la the company is an exs
penanced chemist, and with their outfit all neces

The Californian*. —The number of persons that
are daily pouring into oar city en route for Cali
fornia in incredibly large. Every boat from the,
Ohio brings more or leas adventures, and not a
boat goes up the Missouri but what is crowded
with passengers destined for the Plains. Our
boarding bouses and hotels are thronged with
emigrants, all of whom find no difficulty in pro
curing the necessary supplies and the many con
veniences that are indispensable to an undertak
ing of tbit nature. We are not without apprehen
sion*, from tbe v*st number going, that tnere will
be a great deal of suffering for the want ot subsist
ence for the cattle, moles, and horses, in crossing
the plains; yet, from the accounts given of the
Panama route, there are no less difficulties pre
sented by going that way. Illinois is furnishing her
full quots oi emigrants, some of the papers ol that
State estimating tbe number that have and will
leave during the spring to at least len thousand
Among the emigrants are several members oi tbe
present Legislature, whose places in the event of
a called session cannot be filled unless they resign
previous to leaving.
Several who had alibied by the Plains on reach
ing Independence, sold out their teams, wagons,
See . and have returned to this city and taken pas
sage in the ship Matilda, which will be ready for
sea now in a very few days. There are a few
berths left that have Dot yet been taken, which
can be secured by immediate application to French
it Co —Sr Louu Ntu> Era. April 11.
The Crrr or San Fbancisco. —ln the ‘ Alta Cali
fornian’ 1 in San Francisco) of February
Ist an interesting account is given of the city of
San Francisco.
In June, 1547, it contained four hundred and fifty
nine souls, in the previous year thirty bouses were
built, and laborers received from two (o three dol
lars per day. In July and August following thirty
eight houses were erected. In March, 1348, the
population had increased to eight hundred and
twelve, (whiles,) being an increase of one hundred
per ceuL in eight months.
In April, 1 St 9, the people wore gold struck , and
the whole population rushed to the mines. The
effects oi these rumors about the wealth of the
mines are described, but these are*fatmliar themes.
Sickness having broken out in the mines (hey were
nearly descried in August and September, andlhe
>eople crowded io San Francisco, aud busioess
>egaD to revive. In November, when tbe fruits
of the miner s labor began to be reaped, San Fran
cisco began to lengthen her strides to prosperity
and greatae»s.
Other advanisges are claimed for the town. It
is said to posset* the safest, largest, and most ac
cessible harbor on the whole coast The situation
of Ihe town ■* picturesque and only four miles from
the sea. ThebayofSan Francisco is navigable
for medium rued vessel*, as are also the Sacramen
to and San Joaquin. The climate ia healthy. The
population had increased since March last to about
two thousand sou's. Real estate has risen io val
ue from one hundred to one thousand per cent-
The export of gold dust since May last is supposed
to exceed two millions. The importation of com
for the purchase of gold dust in IMS amounted pro
bably to one million of dollars. The import* ol mer
chandise for ihcri-ame period were equal in value
to one million of duller*. Tbe duties oollecled in
IMS amounted to fi19f1,074 Gfi The numt>er of

than fifty. Passengers arriving by sea une tbuu*

way into the papers, that Mr. Bullitt and his as
sociate* bad proposed to bay tbai paper, and that
$60,000 was ai-ked for it, ttys:—
“In justice t»the gentleman who is named in this

assertion, coninined m the paragraph, that either
he or “his present aaaociales"—whoever they may
have ever made any proposition or suggestion
to u* for the purchase of 100 National Intelligencer.
In justice to ourselves, we it tie, further, that the

bought for less than twice the sum stated; nor, at
tbe present lime, for any amount whatever that
any ooe in his senaea would be likely to oiler
for it.” *

Some queer disease with queerer name;
The patient feels as he were shot,
To think what illness be has got.
Now aomething quickly must be done.
The sickness is a aenous one—
Then ho —tor blister, lance and pill.
The patient is so very ill.
And nothing will relieve distress.
So surely as camhandeit.
Then in a twinkling is applied
A whole great plaster on his side—
The patient groans—(be Dr. says
He will be well tu twice two day?
This done, be sets awhile to talk,
of things ftal may bis nostrums bulk —
i >f oeighbor people—sick anJ well —
And stones that old women tc.il
Of do'es other Drs. give—
He wonders how their patient’s live.
When suddenly—as iu n flurry
The Dr. minds he‘s in a hurry
He rises—leaves upon the stand
A list of nostrums nut at hand.
Subfßuriste bydrag, ball a score,
Ofepicac ns many more.
And what the others are indeed,
Not Esculnpius' self could read,
When lipping forward on his toes
He mounts his horse and off he goes-
Next evening at half alter eight,
He comes back trolling to the gate—
He’s pinched for lime—he has to ride
O’er such ett*u. my country side.
He feels the pulse—'tin cold and slow
Ah yes —he in*tc it would be so,
For if his patients were In die
He ktows the very reason whv,
They have neglected his prescript.on
And consequently took "conniption ’
And died before he found it out,
It wi* their own fault—not a doubt.
