Wa andcrsUnd that a c.irps of Engineers will

of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad, and will
immediately commence the location of the road
between this city and Beaver. It ia ezoected
that the route will be prepared fur contract by the
first of January next, when it will be immediate*
ly let to contractors, provided the means are far*
niabed. Of this there is confident hope. We are
informed by the Chief Engineer of the work, that
if the money Is provided, he will have the cars on
the road between this city end Beaver, within.

Pennsylvania Railroad is Philadelphia’# grear
work. To her will accrue the hotter, and .the
principal emolument. She will point to it with
pride ai jhe creation of her own money and en*
terprise. The control of the road will always be
ia Philadelphia, and her interests will be first con*
suited. We do not complain of thin. Philadel
phia will deserve to reap the rich reward of her
exertions, and wo wish her rucst unbounded sue*

the bears the same relation to it that Philadelphia
'does to the Central Road, and while that city

Pittsburgh, thin citysLoaiil imitate her example
by devoting all her spare eip iiil to the Western

Daniel IVctuur-flams Coeki aad Coefc
Fighting* • A*
A writer in the New York Courier and Enquirer
»» ffiving a hutory of the early life and 1 trails of
character of Daniel Webster. The great Ameri*
can (n early life bad a strong propensity for ou.»
door recreations, and he baa cultivated it from
' that day to this. No man in the eounlry is more
fond of fishing, bunting, sailing, riding, or driving,
ih«n Mr. Webster. He has not the' leastJ&ste or
fondness for ia*door amusement. He never play
ed a game of chess or checkers in his Hie; nor
billiards, nor teo pins. He never played, nor does
be know a game of cards, except whist, which
game he will play with ladies or gentlemen in the
evening before hia early boor for retiring. Hit
passion is for oat*door recreations. To this be is
unquestionably much indebted for the robust con
stitution he established on arriving at manhood,
'and which he has sustained throughout his ca
reer.
The following anecdote of one of the boyish
freafih of the great Expounder and Defender c.f the
Constitution, is well told:
“When Daniel was tbout ten years of age, as
a great favor his mother gave him hnll a dollar
and permission to visit one of bis aunts, distant
tome ten miles beyond this place. Accordingly
he set forth the next morning early, and made the
journey on foot. His purpose was to spend se
veral days.. On arriving at his (face of destina
tion the first important ohjecl that arrested hia at*
teation was a splendid fighting cock, strutting ami
crowing in the barn yard. He scanned hi* appa
rent powers with secret but delightful anticipations,
for one of his neighbors had a conquering rooster,
against which Daniel held a grudge, aud whirb
was the terror of every cock in this vicinity. As
soon as be had passed the usual salutations with bis
aunt, who was of course delighted to sec him, be
begao to negotiate 'tor 'the purchase of the game
cock. It resulted in his becoming the, owner of
the bird for the said half dollar, alt he had, which
be promptly paid. During the ntxht his anticipa
tion* and bis impatience formormng to come were
so great be could scarcely sleep a wink, tired •as
be was. At an early boor he was up and had his
game cockaafeiy in txi*possession. No entreaties
on the part of his Aunt could induce him to stay a
moment after he had bad his breakfast.
With the rooster in his arms, he set out for home.
On his return he had not proceeded for before he
passed a barn yard filled with bens, among which
be spied a boasting cock manifesting bis fighting
propensities. On seciog what Daniel held in his
arm*, the cock on bis own ground, gqve the usu
al challenge for a battle. No sooner intimated
than dooe, down went this champion in the midst
of the flock, aiid the sparring commenced. The
battle was bravely fought on both sides. No lov*
era of cock fighting ever saw a mure satisfactory
contest But the challenging party bit the dost
Daniels game .cock stood over his prostrate foe;
and flapping his wings, crowed bis victory. There
upon be look his hero io his arms and again trudg
ed on his way. In the course of the next mile he
came to another yard. Here he displayed his
champion, he was challenged, gave battle, and
came off victorious as before, aod came nenr hav
ing a battle with another boyof his age. Thus he
journeyed on. giviug battle at every born yard be
passed where a cock would fight, always trium
phant. At length he reached the yard of his
neighbor who owned the cock against which he
bad the. grudge. The day was well nigh spent.
His champion had fought several times. He
doubted the policy of letting him fight the most
important battle under such circutnslacces, but be
ing impatient, and seeing that bis bero seemed
fresh, for Daniel bad carried him in his arms, and
inasmuch, as on seeing his antagonist, the rooster
seemed fierce for the fighht, be let him slip.
The battle began. For a while the contest was
an even one; but in ten minutes Daniel had the
satisfaction of seeing his hero victorious. He also
saw the cock against which he had lae grudge
and which had again and agxin driven his own
fowls Irom h;a own yard, led about by the comb
in a manner as degrading as the old Romans led
theft conquered foes while celebrating their
triumphs ol arms. Wellington, alter (be battle ot
Waterloo, was not better satlrfied with the results
of the day than Ibis boy was wub the results ol
his day."

Rsbtees Street} Allegheny.
On looking over the proceedings of the Councils
of the city of Allegheny, we find a resolution
passed by the Cpmmon Council, at the meeting on
the l&lb of October, authorizing (he Street Com
miasionera to expend $5O, in placing cinders on
Rebecca Street, between Craig Street aad Sprat’s
plan of lota. The resolution was rrjteud by the
Select Council We presume the iuteuilon of the
Common Council was to place the cinders on the
side walks, to make a passable fool way; or if buck
was not their iatention, we now ask the attention
of the City Fathers to the matter. • Itis well known
that Rebecca Street is the principal thoroughfare
from Manchester and the Ferry, and that there is
a continued stream of coal wagons on' it all the
day. U ia thus cut up and rendered almost im
passable. As nearly all the coal which comes
into the city passes over that street, the price ol
that nectary article is greatly affected by its
biale—yet not a dollar has been expended lo keep
it ia repair ibis season. As the street has been
raised, from time to lime, in former years, the side
walks in many places have become lower than
the street, and in wet weather are overflowed, and
at all times, except in very dry weather, the street
is impassable for pedestrians. The School Direc
tors of tho Ward have taxed the people high to
enlarge the School House, and all the inhabitants
m that Ward below the School House have no
access to it except by Rebecca street, and its pre
sent stole, during the approaching winter, will act
as a perfect embargo upon the children in the
lower part of the Ward. Although the people are
taxed for school purposes, and the school house is
io sight, yet a wide gulf of half liquid mud inter
venes, overwhich the children cannot pass. Some
lime last spring a resolution was passed,'"directing
the city sorveyor to ascertain the grade of Rebecca
street, and when done, the Street Commissioner
was directed to notify the lot holders thereo r , nnd
to direct them to raise their side walks to it, and
oa their neglect or refusal to do so, be
ed to do it himself/and assess the expense on the
-property holders. Why has (his resolution never
been carried out ?. Are. the acU ©flbe Council!
dead letters, to be obeyed or not, as may suit the
c mvenience of their agents? The grade, we bo
lieve, has been ascertained, bnl we have never
heard any thing more of iL | s A gross, manifest in
justice will be done to all the inhabitants of the
First Ward, below the school house, unless some
thing is done immediately, and we call upon tbo
Councils of Allegheny, to attend to it promptly.

Rdtett Slave Trials ir* Mjcbioam,— Some
receurslave trials at St. Joseph have.excited much
iuleresL Oa the night of the 27th of September
n party.of eight oe ten Kentuckians, led by one
Morris, broke into the Douse of a Mr. Powell, in
Cass county, while be was absent, drew their pis
tols and knives, dragged Mrs. Powell sod three
children from their beds, bound them With cords,
put them in coveted wagons, and started poet baste
for Kentucky. Alarm wasaoon given, and the
kidnappers were overtaken near Sl Jpsepb. A
'writ of habeas corpus was obtained for the col*
ored prisoners, sad the Kentuckians were ar
rested. The Powells were 'discharged alter a
full and fair hearing. The Register says:
“No sooner was the decision pronounced than
the Kentuckians gathered around them with
their pistols and' bowie knives drawn, and held
them by force. The Court House was crowded,
and the people became of conrae very much ex
cited at such proceedings in a Courtof Justice.—
For some lime it seeraetTas though a bloody fight
was inevitable, bat at last, at the request of Nor
ris, the Sheriff took the Powells’and locked them
up in jail. It was. now discovered,--that while the
suit was pending on the Habeas Corpus, Norris
had obtained a writ of the' Clerk of the Circuit
Coart, under our Sudo Law relative to fugitives
from labor.and claimed the right to hold them un
der th«t- As they Still remained in the custody
of the Sheriff, where Norris had placed them, a
new writ of habeas corpas was obtained directed
to the Sheriff, os also one directed to Norris^re
turnable before the same Judge cu Monday morn
ing, October Ist. Norris was duly informed ot
die time and place of trial, but refused to appear,
(hough fa town. It was satisfactorily shown to
the Court that the United States Sapreme Coart,
in the case of Prigg Vs. Pennsylvania, had deci
ded that all State laws relative to fugitives from
labor are unconstitutional and void, god it follow
ed of course that the writ issued by the Clerk
was null and void—and could authorize no per
son to hold them in’custody; they were accord*
iogly discharged, and quietly departed with their
friends and neighbors.”
An opportunity was afforded Norris to intro
doco on the trial any evidence he might have to
show lhaltbe Powells were his slaves, but be did
notavsil himself of the offer. Tbo Kentuckians
doubtless returned home s liule wiser from their
visit to the free States, for two civil suits for
false imprisonment were commenced against
them by the Powells, and they were held to bail

_J American Appeal
Tfyj American residents In Fans have addre*-
•e a letter to the American minister at Conhtan
tinople, which has been published in the Paris pa
pers, and is said to have attracted considerable at
tention te that metropolis. In this letter, which is
!tyted “The Appeal of the Americans,” they speak
as ibllowi:
Your fellow citUens, Americans in Paris, are
filled with indignation aod amazement at the at
tempts now being made by the Russian and Aus
trian governments to destroy, in cold blood, the he
roes of the revolution in Hungary.
The persons of Kossuth, Bern, and Dsmbinski,
and their companions ol ali nations, are sacred on
the neutral groand of Turkey, by every law, hu«
man and divine. To surrender these patriots to
the brutal demands of their persecutors, would be
a cowardly concession and lasting disgrace *o any
country; and we are rejoticd to see, through tie
press, that the Sultan has adopted that honorable
course which meets the applause of civilized men,
and which will adorn the brightest pages of histo*
ry. We just learn that be bts replied ia the neg
ative to Russia, as well as lo Austria, although .he
had been threatenea with hostilities in case of bis
refusal, and their ministers have actually left Con
ftantmople.
From this great eapital 'of a sister republic,
where progress has just reconstructed 1U mighty
monuments, nod upon this memorable shniversav
ry of the day which aaw the first foundation of re
publicanism laid on the soil ot France, wd feel it to
be our duty lo advise with you, in advance efthe
government and masses at horned at a crises
which admits of no delay. If you have acte'i al
ready, we desire to sustain you. a* we ronfidently
rely upon your responding to the irapul-es of ev
ery true American heart, by offering to the fugi
tives the shelter of our fleet in the,Medite rranean;
and we also trust that you will support the'Sultun
with every possible assurance that, if lie be at
tacked, the United States has the power to sus
tain him, and will do f:. ”
The signers of this address are said to be from
various points of the Union, and about half of
them from the South. Some of our American
journals have animadverted severely on the lan
guage they employ, which is characterized as “l.ke
ly to do harm,” and “as not calletfffor by the oc
casion.” We must dissent from these opinious.
Should the fugitive patriots from Hungnry be with
in reach of a communication from our represen
tative at Constantinople, or of the commander ot
an American national ship, we should bold it lo
be the duty of those functionaries to of
fer them shelter and protection. They are on neu
tral soil. Russia and her vassal, Austria, woald
have no right to complain, if we offered them the
shelter of our flzg; and. we should regard that
American os a recreant, who having tbo opportu
nity, would not exert himself strenously to place
them there: The earnest appeal of the Americans
at Paris was, then, precisely oue of those “culled
for by the occasion.” It was, wa think, well-tim
ed and appropriate. With regard to the asta
raDce to the Sultan, that we havJ ‘ the power <o
sustain him if attacked,” prudence might have di
rected a different mode of exwesniou; as inter
vening oceans and seas would be sad obstacles to
our coping with Russian armies m Turkey. But
so far as we ourselves nre concerned, we ran de
fy the consequences of any soph act of aid and
protection as our fellewCouniryoiau at Paris call
upon our represeutaive at Constantinople to offer.

I hope he will fight, for if be does; it will not be

Yob may expect Kossuth, Bern, and Dembinski,

I have seen the Hungarian ministers to Constan

only awaiting the arrival ol Kossuth to A

Kossuth on the subject, but they have no doubt ol
bis accompanying them.

The most important item of into ligcnce by the
Niagara, so far as this country is concerned, is
contained in our Telegraphic despatch from Lon
don, forwarded to Liverpool jost as the steamer
sailed, and pablislied in ourcolumns this morning.
It announces that the French Government entirely
disavows the conduct of M. Punssin, and has ap
pointed M. BoiaLe Oompt, present French Minis
ter to Turin, as his successor. The statement is
c-jpied from the or Friday, Oclolier ftlh,
si Inal there can,be little doubt of its authenticity.
This resait must be in the highest degree gratify
ing to every frierjd of the 'country- While It dis
sipates every lee|iog of apprehension that thu rup
ture between the two Governments may lead to
serious hostilities it vindicates thoroughly the
course pursued !b; General Taylor, in promptly
dismissing the Munster whose official communi
cations bad beenfo grossljTo&e.v»ive to our Gov
ernment- Of course, we have no means of know
ing in what mariner M. de Tocqneville has ex
plained oc obviated his quasi endorsement of M.
Poussin's coodiidl in his despatch to cur Secre

whicn our Government baa no concert). If he
can maintain hia position in the-Frencb Cabinet,
after m direct ai rebuke as this, be has reason'
certainly to congratulate himself upon a facile
temper and a strong bold on the favor aud confi
dence of the French President.
Our own Government stands nobly vindicated
from every suspicion of ra*hnes* or impm lence. •
It lias acted promptly, fearlessly, and wiiti the safe
and noble instinct of true pairiolirm- The Wash

this result lo be a keen disappointment,-a- it falsi

each; four of them belonging to the new line of
E.K. Collins, and the other, the PrutikJiu, now the
property of a company about to ejitnbl sii a new
line of steamers between New York aad Havre by
the way of Southampton. The Atlantic and Pa
cific, belonging in Collins' line, are already laum-h
-ed and are now receiving the machinery; the
cylinders of wbifh are six feel in diameter, and
supposed to be the largest ever yet cast for a
steamer in this country or England. These two
stesmen are said to be larger that either the
Great Britain or the ill fated President, and are to
commence their regular voyages on the l*t of
June 1850. The Arctic aud the Anlnrcuc, now
oa the Btpcb*, are of smaller dimensions, and are
also intended for Collins' Line.
Besides these, there are the Georgia, intended
for the Atlantic and Pacific line of rnn’l steamers,
and two others of 800 and 400 tons respectively.

Setta on which Lima Is «aefßl<
By Jas.~Hyatt, Cktmutof the Mount Airy Agr*-
evittirai Ineiiiute, Germantown, Pa.
Lime’may be advantageously applied, m prop
er quantifies; and under proper circumstances,
to all soils, except to calcareous ones,
that is, except to those which already contain
upwards of five or six per cent, of carbonate
of lime, and io certain cases, even, to some of
these.
The-lands which lime benefits in the greatest
degree are the following: Peaty soil, and those
which contain large quantities of vegetable matter;
clayey toils, which are needed to be rendered
more fight, open, and active; lands that are worn
out by long and exhausting culture; soils sterile
from (he existence, of green'copperas —proto sul«
phate of .iron—in considerable quantifier; eOils |
wanting poiosb; and those which are found to be >
deficient in the qaactity of lime necessary for its
supply to the growing crops. On other soils, lime
may often be profitably employed according to
their mechanical condition and chemical composi
tion,end lo the expense of liming, as will be hereaf
ter explained. Those soils which contain a prop
er proportion of the other different mineral ingre
diednta necessary tp fertility, together with ruffi
cient organic matter,-and which ore of the right me
chanical structure aqto mellowness, being neither
too compact nor too'open, may need no applica
tion of lime for n long series of years, although
tho percentage of liipe in them is very small.—
Chemical analysis shown, that soils known
to be fertile witbobj manures, may contain uo
more than one five tgundredth part of lime; for then
though tbe.proportiop of lime is ioconsiderab’c, yet
we learo by calculation that an acre ofsoit, six
inches in depth, willxontaiq about a ton and a half
of lime—undoubtedly more than sufficient for
the supply of rotations of crop* for a quarter of a
century. •:
These fertile soils,however, which oontain such
small, and even somewhat larger proportions of
lime may be doubtless made to yield larger
nm turer crops. |>y its addition in considera
ble quantities. Tbe}effccls of lime on such soils
•ire, with proper management, altogether benefi*
cial, notwithstanding that they then require, be«
sides; the expense ofiliming, a more cosily system
of manuring. production that fol
lows'the liming leneft to exhaust the soil of its ne
ces*ary ingredients, and to destroy its fertile prop
erties, so that, whilcjlime is continued to be appli
ed, instead of supplying the place of other manure*,,
it becomes necessary to be more liberal iu their
application. Toe farmer who increase* his crops,
without increasing hjs manures, wilt soon render
his soil barren. All "ibis extra labor and expense,
however, will be anfpiy repaid by the gam in pro
duction; for if there any profit in raising a light
or medium crop on a piece of land, this profit rap
idly sew|is, ns the npme land is made to yield its
heavier products. would not be advisable that
time ana money shopld be lavished in the injudi
cious and extravagant application of manures.—-
That which a (arm ys capable ot.yielding in the
shape of animal manured should tie
carefully buabandcdfjas well as that which can be
economically purciiased and applied. And foreign
substances, in the *bjhpe of ashes, plaMer,bone dust,
dr sail, of which thg land may stand in absolute
want, must be procured. With caro aud good
judgment ro these njaiiers, such a soil as is refer
red lo may be Imfod with .great advantage.—

Mb Editor—l notice that m the Massachusetts

make* an inquiry, AjVbut will destroy hen lice* —
The editor, in gives no specific
but recomtuen.iit loiglve them liberty to range

He olao says “ VV are covered with lice-,
the beat way tj nq them of tne plage i* to catch
them and smear them over with oil or greasy mat
ter." I wan much tVoublcd with these inmate in
sects on u.y hens aa(l chickens last year; so much
so, that one fine hctddicd while silting, juat before
the time Air hti to The I ce were so plenty,
that 1 cot.ld nut put rpy hand or a finger upon their
roosts, or Umber ui connection, ball a minute, but
that my hand wouldiho immedialely,covered with
them, crawling aheap as fa-t a* possible; and if not
immedidtely brushed off, would extend over |be
whole body. ;
Being at EaM Fnxbnro’ rail road depot, iast fall,
some j>er-on mentioned mat a man was there a
abort time before Vermont, who stated an
infallible rraudy for t|eu lu-c, a* follows:
Bod up a quantity! of onions in water. Wtcn
the onions Ixrohie spit, mush them up, and with
the water t-lir m Indian enrn meal till sufficiently
thick to give cut to flhe hens and chickens when
cooL They will ii, and norfaiou-e will be
found on them twenlv four hours after, and they
will cense io mtect sHeir ro-wting places after.—
Wo made a trial the above remedy late last
fall, and have not bean troubled with lice since.

Editorial Remarks. —Oi alt the doubles and
vexatious, ia kccpittg hen-, we kuow .of none so
serions as that raiquio insect* that jafists bens,
when they arc confined, or are kepi in large flocks..
Many a tiniM wc bays set a ben inia new box, and
clean nert, perfectly |ree from lice, and have care
fully guarded agains| them in the ben hose*; but
tne insidious foe would cutne from their hiding
places and attack the quiet hen. who could make
no resistance, nad epher kilt her on her nest, or
Compfel li'T to leave it before hatching. At first,
we put a little lard on the hea; bu( we found that,
in such cases, the eggs never hatched. Afterwards,
as the bee we brushed them from the
eggs, and put them in a new nest and box, and
rubbed yellow or dry snuff on the hen, and let her
rua and burrow half; an hour or an hour to get rid
of the snuff am. lice.? This was a great deal of
trouble; and should the above simple mode cener- j
ally prove a reincdyj this little item of iiiformatioh,
will be a great acquisition lo the poulterer. We
advise those who try this remedy, to examine
the eggs laid soon alter the onions nre given to
the hen», and ac-e if they are not affected by the
onions.
