mentofyoalb, tad lor furnishing them with the
"'requisite to£>roailoa.on a most important pursuit
of lUe, baa lately been broached, which deserves
higher consideration, and la more worthy of the
not!re and liberal attention of onr ettixena. Such
•a institution is even more important to the inhab*
itanta of onr cities than td those of the country—
Die litter can teach their boys agriculture, and can
send them to towns and cities (or initraction in
lha mechanic arts, and merchandise, while the
farmer are almost completely debarred from edu*
eating their children fjr the agricultcrai profession-
We have no doubt there are band.eds of fiimilies
ia this city and vicinity who would biiagopason
tb the noble, healthful, and manly pnrauits of far
ming and gardening, were the. means at hand to
give theme scientific, practical, and thorough
knowledge of the profession. Such a means will
be afforded by an agricultural school, conducted
ba a liberal scale, under the charge of an ablb su*
perinteadeht and assistants.
.! Iftbe mailer i» to be ondertsken, however, lei
it be commenced right, at the start. No half way
tffiia will succeed. There will l»e no want of
students, .if the right kind cf a aheooi u found

'■jyouib, IB agrieultaral Collrge i» thought lo be
worthy of the attention of ibnOovernmea*, sod
provision is making for bending an inititaticn on
Ihe most liberal scale. From • report lo the Leg
isUtara we learn (bat it is propoied to erabliah
!an'agricultural College, connected with on exper*
meats!; firm of 600 acres, which will probably
combine, sufficient extent aod variety’ of soil tor
the objects to be accomplished; tbe urn to be cob
. tlvated by the tabor of the echoUrs, who ore to be
lemployed foar hours a day in practical agricol*
iture, in aU tts vaiious brioche*. _
Among the branches enumerated, to be tbeo*
; reties liyand pneticaily taoght, are the laying onij
•' tJj£ farm end garden in various modes, adapted io l
: j the setting oot of plants and tree*;:
: grafting, bndding, pruning, iranFpl&nting and rcor
; ing of Gull trees; the different manners cf tenctefc
■ greonds, with the relative advantages and coat ot
; earth jthevarious qualities cf forest trees, in ret
; erence to fencing and building purposes; (be beat
: jmode of breeding and feeding stock; tbe compar
; ative advantages of the various breeds; how to
1 discover defects, andthe way to remedy or erad*
ieaiethem; the ptopertiaeto tell produce, and
v how td put it in market; the manner of keeping
: farm accounts; and; id abort, a 101 l coarse of in*
. struetion ns to the management of a farm.
It is [proposed* for tbe proper management of
- the institution, to have a- President, who must be
. Aseieniifig and pract'esl agriculturist— a Profes
•or of Chemi«try and Chemical Manipulation—
v a Professor ot Natoral History and Mineralogy—
of Mathematics, Engineered, and
Practical Surveying—a Professor of Botany and
; Horticultrire —a Frofetsor of History, Law, and
i General. Science—and a Professor of Veterinary
Art Anatpmy. In this College Uis also pro*
: posed io have a practical farmer, having charge
' of the farmand stock; a gardener, carpenter, ms*
son, and blacksmith, constantly employed, with
the view ofgivragtome practical knowledge ct
arts to essential in t r e management of a iarm.
It would ofeourae be impossible to establish a
•ohool in this vicinity oh so magnificent a scale—
. neither .would it be necessary fjr tbe objects to be
accomplished. One practical and scientific bead,
With probably, two assistants, dividing the branch
es taught ,between them-would be sufficient to
start on.
Aa the matter has bees suggested, we hope it
will cotbo suffered to sleep, but be taken hold ol
by men who will make it go. Of one thing we
feel assured, there will be do want ot posits.

Agricultural School.
Your excellent paper, of iho 23 ih all., contains
• letter addressed to the AgrinnUtiral Society of
Allegheny County, on the subject ol an Agricnltu*
ral School, to be located in this county. The pa
per was read by me with much interest, and l
have waited, from day to day, in the hope that
somo one better qaal.fied than myoelf wool! take
-up the subject, open it in all its fullness, apd show
to parents the importance of such an insiiinlion.*-
No one has yet done so; —I beg to offer a few
thoughts, and urge some reasons why tb'osubjeet
should be setiouiily entertained, and cariied out in
all its beniSciat results. It has become a trite-re*
mark,ihat two of the learned professions are over*
loaded. Parents talk of this, and acknowledge it.
i Yet, if their eons have been able to pass the £ery
| ordeal of a college life, they posh them into these
profession*, because here and there is to be found 11
•an old practitioner, who, by his untiring industry, 11
and more than common talent, has obtained al l
prominent position, tod, perhaps, a moderate for* 1
tunc. These stars hide the thousand little lights, I
which, when they first begin to twinkle, a fond I
parent's hopes would have tanned into so endor- I
ing fiame. I have named only two professi&ns; I
the third, alas I finds not so many seeking entrance. I
1q our country we fortunately bare no fat livings, I
where indolent rectors leave the flocks to the I
humble curate, “passing rich on twenty pounds a |
year." I
When we look over this country, with its broad 1
lacrer, Us beanlifal prairies, with States and Terri- |
tones extending from ocean to ocean, we can ima- j
gine that from these fertile pUinr, the plough, I
•pad*, and the firmer, shall reap rich harvests, !
surer than those gathered by the gold digger. j
Within the last few yean, the attention of scion-1
tific men has been turned to the subject of agri
culture, and varied and interesting works publish
ed on agricultural chemistry, and on all subjects
ooanected with the farming interest. Wo have
so for progressed, ea to be able to send oar ploughs'
threshing machines, etc., to be exhibited to the
cultivators of the soil across the Atlantic. But to I
the point.—Whst is to be done with our boyr, who ;
having gone through a thorough couiseofEoglUb,
(or perhaps the fancy work of Latin and Greek
in addition;) and, having learned to are now
to bo tanght to vxxL! Some may have enfeebled
frames, not able to bear the stimulating course of
' college studies, others may have 100 feeble per
ceptions of right and wrong, or may be unable,
from a yielding, vacflatlng, disposition, to with-
stand the temptations of college life. |
- As to the mechsnical profession, look round on
our manufacturing city—see the way apprentices
are dealt wiUr, where can you point to the paren
ts] oversight that ehould bo given to boys by those
who have assume!, for a time, a parent’s respond
sibilitiea f They generally advance no farther
in the family circle than the kitchen. It would be
thought high presumption for one, however we!)
ho may have been educated, to enter his mister's
parlor, or converse with his 'daughters. Ob, do ;
If they want female society, they must seek It in
the kitchen, .or, perhapr, they will do worse, join
the rowdy gangs that di»graceour city. Aretbese
the homes where we could place boya who have
been accustomed to refined and .intellectual so
ciety.
There nay 'possibly bo gtniUnc* fsrmtn,
where a boy might be placed lo learn the manual
labor of formic?, bat would he, when Iho labor* d
(he day were over, be introduced among hi*
equals. Now, it appears to me, that these evils
might bo corrected ta and agricultural school, i»
well managed. It might bo begun with a form of
ooe or two hundred acres, with sufficient wood
land to giro employment to the corps ofwood
cutters. Let there be at it* bead a man of kind
aad genial jnanner, accustomed to' cultivate the
aoll of the heart Giro him one or more praetieai
formers, to abow'tbe boys how to handle their
itolq let them hare lectures on all'aotgects con
nected with agriculture, the care of animal*, etc.
And what thtnk you, will bo the companion of
health between young men thus trained, and the
graduating data in college? I speak of physical
health; morally there could be no companion.
That some of the Fathers will take op the sob.,
j-ct and adopt a suitable plan for it,'islbe earnest
wish of a MOTHER.

Correspondence of Ute Pittsburgh Gazeuo. I
Waihisgtos, Jan 31,1830. j
Your article of the SSih lau, upon the Presi
dent’s recent message on California affairs, excites
unusual attention, and meets with the approval of
all Whigs with whom I have lately conversed. 1
so gild 1 deferred the more careful and elaborate
remuks it had been my purpose to make upon
the positions of the President, as promulgated in
that most important communication, for, bad I done
»o, 1 should have presented views very similar to
your own, but in language leas terse, dear, and
satisfactory. 1 presume that yon, Messrs. Editors,
and the readers of the Gazette, are willing to ac-
cept me as authority, upon matters appertaining io
Free Soiliam, for If there be one thing which I have
endeavored to make clear in this correspondence*
it is my uncompromising hostility to the continued
supremacy of slavery, as the directing genius of
I our government, and my determined opposition to
[ the territorial extension of slavery. With these
feelings, lam ready to avow,that, under existing
circumstances, 1 thiak the policy sketched by the
} President, in reaped to the territories, to be sound
land wise, and eminently expedient California is
I the great question. Lst ns settle that—lei us get
her admitted. Sufficient for the day ta the con.
teution thereof. Let us strike for the incorpora
tion of California with this great confederacy, as
she comes to us, with her own self-established
boundaries, and her anil slavery clause, but with a
condition for the division of the extensive territory
into two or morp Slates when certain portions, to
be designated, shall contain, ssy, 100,000 inhabi
tants. la that way we shall overcome the dtffl-;
cully concerning her boundaries and extent. Boi
Iwe cannot (inker with her limit* now without
1 leaving still at sea the great question between
freedom and slavery. Her own sdf-sdopicd, an
ti slavery dtuse, now coven all the sem coast
I from 33 deg. to 43 deg. California has settled that,
1 lei ns not disturb i>.
Hot n to the territory Ea»t, the ureat BMio,
Including Deteret tod New Mexico, bow shall we
organise them into territorial government, with*
out the Wilmot ProvUo? Geo. Taylor advisee
that the attempt be not made. Now, holding aa I
do the principle of Freeaoil for free men, tacred
*boro ,11 Wb's or Damo««tic p«rt, <l«:Iri»e—
-above all other political maxima or measures—l
cordially concnr In thia recommendation. 1 would ,
never participate in agitation lor agitation’* take.,
l would not plunge into furiou* turmoil it I saw
and knew that the object of the atrifc waa unat.
tainabie. There will bp * long, deaper**. “d
fearfully violent struggle, over the admission of
California. But we of the North, with the uala
tanceofthe true and noble unionist# of the Somb,
can oarry that burthen. But, united as we at the
.North are upon the principle involved in the quve*,
lion as regards Cal,forma, the faoaliea and the die"
unionists ol the South will make this their Ther j
mopyl# Thpy wil) atand here and fight tiU they
per Uh. I think lam not deceived ; they will op- j
pose the admission of California, a# a measure dis
tinct from the other questions, aa furiously aa they I
voaldi the application ol the proviso to the terri
tories. 'This is the great point ot difference be
tween Mr. Clay’s acheme of compromise and the
plan of the President. Northern men cannot and
will not consent*a place those tenltonesin e con
dition in which they may remain, perhaps for a
quarter of a eeniury, in full view oflhi piirpoae of
the slave owners to make slave holding communi
ties of them. Therefore, If ii be inaisted that ter
ritorial bills shall be passed, they will never go
through the House without the Wilmot Proviso,
tod, in that ahape, they must fail iu the Senate;
and the great danger is that, in the smoke and
din cf this resultless battle, California may be kept
out. But enough.
The House did nothing to day. In the Senate,
the Cass resolution for suspending diplomatic re
lations with Austria, was mauled most remorse. j
Ileasly. by Mr. Hunter, of Virginia. But it waa
tike wounding the dead Percy. The project is |
deoeased. It is a great failure—a most ludicrous:
'one. Mr- Buchanan is looking on and enjoying I
the fun of bis rival’s discomfiture. Mr. Hunter
gave Geo. C. one most piercing thrust. Why |
not, says he, direct this resolution at France,
which wantonly trampled out and stifled the dawn- 1
ing liberty of Home t Aye, why not at the Papal
government of Home itself? Yea, true enongb.
General, why not proscribe thst Inveterate foe ot
civil liberty the temporal power? Aha ! are you
there, truepenny ? Echo, not the General, answert,
because my son is there, and he who taketh not
care cf his ownhoose hold is worse than a heathen'
Well, Mr. Benton has triumphed over the wooly
horse and bis owner. Yes, Old Bullion has driven
them.forth, and horse and rider have vtmoaed on
, der the cover of night. The Colonel said the
horse was a humbug, and he meaut to put it down
for the profanation of mixing up Col Fremont’s
name with it The roan replied that it might be a
hombug—that there were a great many humbugs
i in the world, but that there was no law against
' humbugs. He had heard there were humbugs in
I ibe Senate, but he never complained against
ibem. Every man had his favorite humbug, and
the wooly horse waa bis. But Benton and the
magistrate cut abort bis philosophy, and the man
was obliged to recognise, in $5OO, to appear at the
cexiterm of the criminal court and auasrer the
eharge of obtaining money under false pretences,
j In sober earnest, Benton is a great mas, bat a
more officious, meddlesome, and contemptible
piece of tyranny than his persecution of the po:r
devil with the wool? horse waa never witnessed
here-or elsewhere. Had the magistrate not been
an asa, he would not have committed the man.

<reat source of regret, is, that we have 09 direct

been aeloa foot to coireot this grievance, which
promises to have soma impor. sat results. Petitions
have been put in drcdlstion. asserting the right*
ofthe people toaterritlorisi form of government,
and praying Congress to esublish it. This was
thojltn of Alexander Hamilton, and I think ought
still to be adopted. Uoder st the people would be

The general apathy cf Wall Street bat been
broken, end financial affairs are more active than
for the past three months, with a demand by oul
aide speculators. This has long been unknown. To
reason from cause to effect upon Ibe matter, It j
may be said that the compromise resolutions of
Ur. Clay have been (be -means of producing
this desirable change of feeling, not that a belief
is entertained that bis resolutions will pass, bat
from an impression that aomo compromise will
speedily .be effected, and capital bo released from
the doubt which now possesses it. '
Onr Courts are busy with the famous “torpedo
case 19 of Drury, who attempted the life of Ur.
Warner. The cate is as involved as the rest of
the batch of Drury affairs. It seems that Warner,
who is Also an Englishman, Is a man of not over
nice reputation. His wife testifies that their mar*
ried life haa been a series of quarrels, and that
her huaband was, when she pined him, in New
York, after his desertion of her in England, living
with a mistress, nay, more, that sho lived in
the same house with ihe'miitren. The evidence
is sought for with mocb avidity, but it only goes
to prove that Drury, Thompson, Bennett, Ashley,
and others, are consummate knaves, who have
for years been preying upon society here. A lit*
tie episode in this affair happened this week. One
of the panel to try Drury wea charged with being
a friend of Drury, and an utterer ofbogua money,
with the farther charge that one of the bills was
•t the * Pewter Mug,” a porter boase in the rear j
ol Tammany Hall, and famous as the resort oftbe!
“Democracie." The person charged, at once pro* i
reeded to demand of *‘Mrs Lynch,” a fat old Loco
Foco, who dispenses the beer, the troublesome
money, which was refused. An' altercation an*

Hamburgbera hare also a line under way, of
which the ‘‘Helena Stoniau 0 will take her place
in the lice, in April. She is expected to make the
westward trip in twenty two days, and home in
eighteen. The success of Bremen ships baa start
ed this line, and it must prosper. The North River
seems like Germany for all the world. West

landt Street to the Battery, are filled with Ger
mans, and from the vessels on the same side ot
the nver, on a Sunday, San be seen more flags
from the North of Europe, than of onr own gay

"Anglo Saxons" of the oontincnt, and our best

indomitable perseverance, thrift and indnatry, the
better.
For California there ia a good deal of business
doing, and the demand for shipa large. Three first
cUax'packeta have just been sold to go into this
trade; the Victoria, London liner, and the Sheri

reight continue high, and close firm. For Eu- S
rope, freights are also high, sod ships fill op very

good—permitting boats to be loaded st all seasons:and
the mouth of M mgo a short distance above, affords an
ample harbor to protect them from the Hoods and ice
of winter. The Triel connected-with these woiks
consists of 300 Acres Coal, lying in the neck of land
between Mingo Creek and the Monongaiiela All
things considered, this property <mmbines, perhaps, as
