CoTTtypondeaec of ihe Pmtfmrgh Gazette.
Wasuikotor, April 21,1849.
There it Ml mach news of e political character.
1 learn from the appropriate office in the Treasury,
that the amount of itock iarued to foreigners dur
ing the past week, of the loams of IS4W-S, was
$60,000. There were no coupon certificates
issued. There remaina of the last loan yet un
died far, some two and a quarter miUion. ol
dotlare, and'the stale of toe Treasury u perfecUy
U e.so Thu balance of ibd loan of 1818 u ex
pected lb be called for during iho next month, lo
aid in lie payment of the inaialmenl of the Men
can debt, doe that month.
The price of government atock and treasury
note, in on tba rine, and good judges think lhal
the loon payable in 1388 will go up to 118,or even
120. It does not Mem extravagant to eatimate
the value of thi» atook, an a permanent iaveatmenl,
upon the basis lhal'a five per ceil alock of the
U. S. would be worth somewhat more than par.
The price, of p.blic securities have been some
wbat depressed for some , month. past, by the
' angular .Ule oflbrng. growing out of Ihe rage for
emigrating to California, in March of gold. The ,
eflecl of that great national movement upon thet;
-iatareata of navigalion, eommerce, and tba general,
bnaineaa of Ibe tha country are now becoming
very apparent, and will be much more Moatbly
felt It ia aacertained, that from the Atlantic Mil
port., over three hundred vesrels, carrying 19,000
passengers for ihe ahiniog land, have sailed with
in the pail KX months; two third, of them taking
the long mo voyage by Cape Horn. The number
Which have already e« not upon the overland
tome, nod ore preparing for ihe journey, may be
aafely estiiAled at 40,000.
The attntont of money which tbeae emigrants
lake with them out of the country, i. enormous,
and forms a mo.t important element in the calcu
lations of every one who desires lo profit by the
fiuctuaiiona of money and treJe—a class which
includes nearly all engaged m mercantile persons-
Wo may (bnn eomn e.tlinalc, though, of course
a very imperfect one, of the aggregate amount o'
coin actually taken out of- circulation ano the ac-
„y.d ehauneia oflrade, by atautmng from lha
beat dila before ua, Iho average aum required for
the outfit of each individual emigrating, and for the .
defruymant of hi. expenses. It will he recollected,
that when the patty conducted by Colonel H. I.
Webb reached Camargo, on lha Rio Grande, a
I point well advanced on their entire jooroey trom ,
the place from which they Ml out, the treasurer
waa robbed of 819,000-la gold, belonging lo foe
company. The number of its members waa lew
than a hundred. U rfifist have cost them, altar
fcrocoriog tbnir outfit, fitly dollar, from each pet
„„ u. get from New York lo the point where
tbeir'dilfieuluea began. Thu.lbay mu.l have taken
from New York at lean one hundred-Jand ae
! venty dollar, per mac. Their equipment, doubt
' leas, cost thorn one hundred and thirty dollar,
more, making an averse of *3OO par man, and a
total of *3ofioo ; for the Company. Tha expedition
-of sixty parent,. tghidV Italy htre - h ”j'
they left, in the iretreury of the company, 88,000,>°
which should, no doubt, be added, a considerable
sum scattered among lie members. I have ®
1 acquainted with the formation of many companies
in-whlch a condition of membership was. the im.
mediate contribution of 8400, tresb, a. a frovi.iofi
lor outfit and expenre*. 1 have aIK, tree. inform-,
od of the organisation and actual departure ol
aasociatioDß, conaatihg <«hntvefy * iho firet
pereou. of property .fid landing of iba noghbor-
Ld were they were laired. Judging from ihere ,
facta, I form the cotrelu.ion, that tha average sum
of money taken out of circulation or some ordinary
business, and appropriated by ereh California em.-
granl, lo lha express purpose of his expedition, is
L to, lowest, 8250. U the whole emtgr.uoo, up
to Jooe first, slrell amount'to 60,000 pereoas,
which is a moderate and reasonable calcula
tion wo shall find that the enormous .mount ot
fifteen millions of dollar., will have been lha. ap
propriated In a space of Intla more than six month.
To rally appreciate the financial effect of Una
singular movement, U abonldV recollected Hurt a
vary Urge proportion, say on. third or one half, i.
actually carried oul of the country in gold and silver.
The rest being oxchanged for moles, wagons, tenu,
fire arms, provuuons, clothing, and olher article,
of equipment, U merely diverted from the ordinary
channeb of business, nmd giving acltsity and hie
to certain pureulu and toterisu, at the axpenre ol
ofoere, remains with: to. mas. of tha coined money
to the country. In ord V lo keep wtlhta Iho limit,
ofclore calculation iud to avoid the suspicton of
extravagance, 1 have adopted a .am which many
■will think far below the averege a. to mdividoaU,
and the aggregate;., to the total amount too.
abstracted. The fact is, the overage of money
taken by toe emigrants from iho old Slate, of the
east, will probably be nearer five hundred than
nay leas sum, but too overland emigrants from toe
west, will set forth with a smaller supply than I
have Haled aa the average.
In a subsequent letter, 1 shall call the attention
of your readers to tome remarks njmn other aspects
of the California mania. 1 have n6w, ae briefly as
possible, stated a fow facta bearing opoo »ta effects
upon business sod financial oflairs. U may well
be supposed, that these effects are only partially
developed. The amount ofgold actually received
from California, m jhe United Slates has been in*
significant, hardly exceeding a quarter ol a million.
We have exceedingly vague and ambiguous state
ments of the shipment of some three-or four millions
more to England, Mexico, Peru, and this country.
But it is remarkable that we have no accounts of
any shipments having been made from California,
nor indeed any gold having been obtaiwd, since
the early part of December, notwithstanding that
our advices now come down to March Ist It
may be, that much of the gold dug, op to the close
of the mining season in December, has been re
uined in the districts where and that we
shall have heavy returns when the snow and ice
melt and disappear from the vallies of the streams
’ tbe crevices of the Sierras, and after the com
plete renewal of communication witbvSan Fran*
cisco'-bui 1 doubt.
Thu Mexican CommUsion are in aeaaion. They
appear to have licUiing to do, or at leaat, are doing
nothing. The papera which bad aocnmniated in
the eonrae of the investigations of the former Com
mißion, were yesterday uhen from the Slate Do
partment, and are now m process of arrangement
before the Commission.
The length of my dissertation on the gold mania
precludes any illusion to a few points m the
political gossip Which is current to day. Juntos.

This document is interesting, because tl places
before ottr community the name, of the gentlemen
who ere opposed to the establishment of a public
High School ; and il is curious, because it slates
distinctly the ground on which these gentlemen
oppose the proposed school. They regard - a
high school—schools called the ‘ Inna of Court,
and others of similar character, as altogether via
ionary.” Surely, the ketumUt fairnr.t of thesr
gentlemen, in classing . city High School »“ h

them of the like visionary character, is oulyequ.l
led by their philatukropu ItUmiut/ m seek ing to

il as very fortunate for the friends of education,
and of Pittsburgh, that they have been hereby ap
prised of Ihe ground and the character of the op
position which they heve to encounter.
If there is any groood beyond Ibat of selfishness
whereon these gentlemen base their nppos,non to

publicly lo state thas ground, lor it does not appear

U is now certain that the Baltimore and Ohm Ra«

Have been issued and the work is eertaio to pro

willing u yield up all hope of further progress in

disasters which must follow the completion oflbese
rival project*, whilst we reach forth no arm to de
fend ourselves. We believe that this mierpns* .*
beyond the means of individual effort to accom

cils of the City of Pittsburgh prepared to suffer it to
languish, if not to die’ W|eare in possession ol tho
only cbsrter by which this city can reach the in
terior of Ohio and the Lakes. No suck privileges
as it contains will again, m ell probability, ever be
granted for a like purpose by the State of Ohio,
having by the repeal of the Ohio and trie charter,
authorising a road alongghe lake shore, shut her
out from New York,in that direction she will be .0
no mood to grant us access to her interior by fu*
lure legislation, for our benefit; and we see that
Virginia has refused, by a recent decision, to grant
os the right of way through her territory ;to Steu»
benville, regarding such privilege “as a connecting
link to be used by Pittsborgh with Western com
panies” for penetrating the Slate of Ohio. Such is
the position of affairs at present. It cannot be deni
ed that for Pittsburgh mleresU, it is a critical one.
it is in your power to secure them against
•very invasion; but be not you
the absence of all effort and exertion to defend
those interests from encroachment, both on the
North and South going on before your eves.
We do not wish to weary you, or to be Importu
nate. It ts an affair in which all, every one, has
an Interest at stake; we shall therefore bring this
communication to a close, by staling that the coun
ties of Columbiana, Stark and Wayae, through
I which the contemplated road will pais, assure the
board that adequate means for grading u&d bndg
I j ng the road through their territories will be forth-
I coming at once, provided we in Pennaylvauia will
i meet their work in like manner, at Ike date line.
! Provision for that purpose, therefore, ifroade at all,
will chiefly fall upon these cities We invite your
1 serious consideration of the subject; we ask you to
1 do your part for the promotion »( this enterprise.—

of her being freed by an, proces, known to the tow,
.ho wan • alavo unul iho tnuo of her denlh, not
withstanding she was allowed to live away from ber

. until about eleven o’clock ou Friday morning,when
they tent down a petition to the court pray mg l be
released, as they could not possibly affree. About
