LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
Removal of the State Capital
Having given several reasons for the
removal of the State Capital from Har
risburg, it is now proposed to show the
advantages of locating it in Philadel
phia.
In a material point of view, that city
will no doubt take upon itself a large
portion of the expense of erecting the
necessary buildings. And, by the way,
the great State of Pennsylvania should
demand a vast improvement upon the
present structures—they being neither
adequate to the purposes intended, nor
commensurate. with the march of im
provement. Philadelphia will take pride
in making the State Capital building
and accessories, an object of State pride
and interest.
As to historical associations, it we
have any they are around and in the
Quaker City. 'lndependence Hall, and
the recollections clustered around it as
the birthplace of the first American Con
gress, if such things have weight in this
matter, should commend that city to the
favorable consideration of the individual
and the statesman.
Above all other considerations, how
ever, there is in Philadelphia, as pure a
moral atmosphere— aye, purer, perhaps
—as that of any place of equal popula
tion in the country. Let it be alleged
that the Legislature itself corrupts by its
associations, and draws around it all
the elements of wickedness and dishon
esty. Granting that this may be so, the
mere fact of change trom an already
corrupted region to a pure one,—from
place having no character at all to another
that has a good one,—will have of itself
the effect of bringing better men into the
Legislature. Revolutions always have
a purifying effect. This change, and an
increase of the pay of members to $l,OOO,
—which is necessary to draw from more
remunerative callings men of worth and
ability—cannot fail to bring to the public
service a claw of men now neglected
too much, who are great in mind, pure
in heart, and conschntiously honest.
With these changes should be made
another. The session should last but
sixty-daps. Within that time all the
general legislation of the Commonwealth
could be transacted, which would neces
sitate a reform in the matter of so much
of the present useless private legislation.
These changes having been made, mem
bers of the Legislature would be enabled
to take with them to the scat of govern
ment their wives and children. They
would then exchange the miserable hotel
life of Harrisburg for a quiet private res
idence, secure alike irom the tempta
tion sto imutprality and sate from the
trying importunities of a horde of lob
byites and borers of eve!y description.
Under this order of things adjournment
in the middle of the week to enable mem
bers to go home towards every point of
the compass, would he unnecessary; for
every member, for the time being, would
be at home. •
At the present time it is impossible
for members of the Legislature to se
cure anything like privacy at Harris
burg. They are ever surrounded b) au
array of corrupting influent•s, which,
if continually kept at bay are still none
the less vexatious and annoying. From
the great cities East and West gather a
- class of individuals, little respected at
home—where they are lost in the aggre
gate of better men—who, assuming all
the characteristics of leaders and repre
sentatives, manage to make the position
of a Legislator or officer almost insuffer
able. In Philadelphia these personages
would lose their prestige, and be heard
of no more.
Pittsburgh and ConneHaynie
Railroad.—A letter Gout Mr. Benj.
U. LatroLe, upon the subject of the dif
ficulty between this Road and the Mayor
and Councils of Baltimore, says, that
one branch of the Council is adverse to
the Myor's decision, and that the suit
instituted in him in the name of the
"Mayor and City Council" must fall to
the ground. In speaking of the route
chosen by the Mayor's party—by way
of Bedford and Burnt Cabins, Hagers
town and the Western Maryland Rail
road to Baltimore.—he says there is this
difficulty in its way: "There is no chart
er under which it can be built " His
letter concludes as follows: "The re
cent
Maryland Legislature was applied
to by the Western Maryland Railroad
Company for the right to extend their
road from Hagerstown to the Pennsyl
vania line, and granted it only on con
dition that the extension should he made
to pass through Allegheny as well as
Washington County.
This effectually kills the Burnt ('uh:ns'
route, and confirms the "Independent" ,
rout to the Maryland shore of the Poto
mac river, which it must pursue along
side of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal '
to Cumberland. Thus, if the Connells
vine road is to have no connection with
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad at
Cumberland, it must still go to And
through that place if it is to reach Bal
timore by a Inc, wholly independent of
that road. This settles the question of '
the eastern terminus of the Connellsville
road, for two years at least, as the ses
sions of the Maryland Legislature are
biennial. Will Pittsburgh be satisfied
to wait so long to gratify the Mayor of
Baltimore in his preference as to routes,
for he repudiates the Potomac Valley
route, as will also whoever is asked to
help to build it."
Glass Blowers.—Some of our read- '
ers may not know that among the attrac
tions at Masonic Hall, may be classed a
female glass-blower.We allude to Mrs.
Woodruff, wife of the manager. Thin
lady is busily engaged every evening in
fashioning birds, baskets, flowers, and all
kinds of fanciful designs, to be given
away during the evening. We always
believed that woman's delicate hands ;
were better adapted to light work than
the clumsy digits of the male ; but the
dexterity, and mechanical precision with
which Mrs. Woodrotl uses her . taper fin.
gers, in her vocation, passeth our com- '
prehension.
The State Quota.—lt is said that a I
telegraphic dispatch to the Governor
from Provost 'Marshal Genera] Fry
states that it will require but 16,000 men
to fill Pennsylvania's quota—the State
having had an excess of 10,000 under the
fint two calls This being the case the
proportion for Allegheny County will
behut 1,000 men—or about one-sixteenth
of.the whole. The draft, which it is an
nouneed will take place on the 15th
proximo, under these circumstances,
may not take place, a 3 the number to be
raised can easily be secured by liberal
bounties to volunteers.
New Bridge.—The House on Wed
nesday passed a supplement to the Bill
incorporating the Pittsburgh Bridge 1 ---- _ _ ____

OW:gift S. Fetterman, Esq., on of R. P.
Fetterinan, Esq., of thie,ity, was admit
ted to the bar of 'Allegheny County, on
motion of John M. Kirkpatrick, Esq., in
the. Court of Common Pleas,lland on
motion of Thos. B. Hamilton, Esq., in
the District Court. We understand
that he stood the trying ordeal of the
examining Committee in a most credit
able manner. He is a young man of
much more than ordinary talents, and
a hard stndent, and will no dobut in
time, with perseverance and energy, at
tain a high position in, and become one
of the shining lights of, the profession
which he has selected for his career in
life.
Madame Anna Bishop.—By a pri
vate letter we learn that Mad. Anna
Bishop intends visiting Pittsburgh on her
tour West, which she will continence
shortly. She will give one or more con
certs in this city, assisted by her daugh
ter, Miss L. Bishop. Madatpe B. was
always a favorite with our music-loving
people, and the fact that she is about to
visit us will be received with the liveli
est satisfaction.
The the
Committee on Military Affairs, has re
ported, "an act for the organization,
disciplining and regulating of the militia
of the Commonwealth of Pennsyl re
nia," which is said to be modeled after
the system of Massnebusetts—the latter
being the production of Gen. Banks, after
three years' labor.
New Castle and Beaver Valley
Railroad.--A bill has passed the Iltse
allowing the Directors of this road to
issue $lOO,OOO of additional stock, and to
give it such preference over other stock
already authorized as they way consider
necessary. Shares to be SITO each, at a

BULL'S HEAD, Monday, March 21.—The market
opened this morning with ,about 4,000 head of
bullocks on sale at Forty-fourth street, though
it was not generally supposed that the number
exceeded 3,600 and several personareally suppos
ed it still smaller. Owing to the supposed short
supply, the market opened very strong at an
advance of half a cent a pound upon the rates
quoted in our last report of the market. At this
a good many of the first class retail butchers laid
in their supply, some of them paying 163i@16e.
is It for the same quality bought last Monday at
16(004 cents. This class of stock was not very
plenty but we thought more so than last Mon
day. The supply of Western steers of good fair
medium quality,was abundant, and sold at 134 , 14
cents. There were too many light, thin steers,
and rough oxen, but we did not observe any
sales of this class as low as last week.
Prices generally were 11@l3c for the lower
grades; there were country bu
at I yers of working
oxen willing to take them 3c lb for net
weight, and in some instances higher and, gene
rally half a cent above the butchers. 'The morn
ing was very bright and mad, and trade opened
early, and was lively till about 11 o'clock, when
it began to droop, and for some hours it was re
ally e ers conceding to buye rs ' demands,
andmought
tg:cuer:e
in the afternoon at B s a head w ou ld
than in the
morning; The supply at Allerton's is about 600
/MA more than last week, and we suppose that
the stiDpl for the whole city this week will net
