A Post Office Case.
In a Justice's Court at Seheneeta a few days
since, the Postmaster of that city brought an ae
iion against Mr. John Foster, to recover a penal
ty of $5, for an alleged violation of sec. 30 of the
Post - Office Lam'. The defendant, sometime in
the month of July last, mailed at the Post Office
in that city a Catalogue of Union College, direc
ted the Principal of Springville Acackmy. On
'he first page of the pamphlet was writtien the
word,. "with respects of J. Foster." It was con
tended on the part of the pro.ecution, that the
words thus written was a violation of the 30th
section of the act, and the defendant therefore
foible' for the penalty of $5, preecribed by that
section. Oil the part of the defendant it was in

PITTSBUIIOO, FRIDAY, SEPT. 23,1842
see First Page.
The Gazette, in reply to our request to point
out the anti-tariff articles which have appeared in
this paper, resorts to the miserable subterfuge of
quoting an article from the "Manufacturer" ,nf
Dec. 15.18314 in support of its charges. [fails arki
cle had been written by oneof the editors of the Post,
and was much more anti.tariff than it is, it would
not, in the slightest degree, gn to show that the
"Post" is what the Gazette save it is—an Anti*
Tariff paper. Rut the editor of the Gazette should
have known better than to attempt to prove his
charge by such evidence, even though it was del- I
-tied nut of his old files by his preceptor In editor.
ship, the indefatigable Craig. It is sufficient to
show the weakness of this manoeuvre, to say that
the extract alluded to appeared in the Manufac
turer nearly ; ten years ago, and FIVE YEA RS
before THOMAS PHILLIPS becane editor of
that paper. Hoai'would the editor of the Gazette
and his preceptor, Mi. Craig, like it if the payer
they control were to be considered a masonic or•
gan, because the editor was a lodge-going mason
in 1832, and his Mentor would not thin admit an
timasemic articles into the Gazette? They wou'd
undoubtedly think it very unfair so to treat them
and their paper. Or if we were to insist that Mr.
Craig is a Jackson man, (as he once was) in spite
of all he might say and do to show the contrary,
would he confider himself fairly dealt with? Un
doubtedly not. And yet the Gazette wishes to
make the editors of the Post accountable, not for
their own views, hut for the views of other men,
held and expressed ten years ago.
But what is the srticle quoted after all. It is
nothing more nor less than the Compromise pol
icy, which was afterwards carried out by (lay ,
and forms the crowning glory of his political life.
And the editors of the Gazette, in dcnou icing the
article quoted, well knew that they hurt the Clay
Whigs more than they did the Morning Post.
As to the insinuation that our article of yester
day was intended to "blind the eyes of the people
until after the election"—we cast it back with un •
mingled scorn. A man who, being an unrenounc
ing mason, ammed control of an antimasonic or
gan, without defining his position in regard to,
masonry, should hold his peace about "blinding
the eyes of the people:" We have rarely met with
an act of more unblushing impudence.
Suicide.
Dr. Peters, the proprietor of Peters's
Pills, committed suicide in New York on
Saturday .last,. by hanging himself to the
bedpost. The act was occasioned by de—
pression of spirits, produced by extensive
speculations, which, by their unfortunate
terminatiOn,have involved him in pecuniary
difficulties.
Those speculations had no connection
with his, medical business, which is in a
flourishing condition, and yielding a profit
that would soon have relieved him from all
his embarrasrnents. A coal mine, which he
owned in Rhode Island, and which his
swallowed up immerse sums, while it re
funded little or nothing, was the principal
cause of his misfortunes. Still he was by
no means a bankrupt, but has left behind
him more than will satisfy all claims against
him, and leave a handsome support for his
family, which consists of a wife and two
children.
British Goods.
"At no period for many years," says the
New York Express, "has the quantity of
British manufactures shipped to the United
States been so small as at present. If e
ven a packet ship gets a freight of £250 or
£3OO, it is considered very good, as things
go now. Passengers are the most profit
able kind of freight, and they continue to
be very numerous, The packet ship Pat
rick Henry, which sailed on Friday, car.
ried out 20 cabin and 250 steerage passen•
gers, whose passage money would yield
not less than £BOO. Her freight on goods
did not reach £300."

Our neighbors of 'the "Herald" have,
their date/writs are - true, met with many
annoyances in their first attempt to get up
stigma in the Clay' engine, arid if the iliffi
cukiea continue, we greatly fear that nit
even the "Safety Guards" wilt prevent an
exphision in their office.
The proprietor of the Chronicle is char
ged with forbidding the boys who carry his
paper, to carry the Herald, and by such
means, effectually Atippressing the first e
mission of Messrs. D. M. McPherson, 0 .
0. M'Clean and R. A. McPherson's paper.
The next difficulty was the tricks of the
news boys, in palming the Morning Chron
icle nn
~persons who wished to purchase
the Morning Herald. In this matter the
editors sfty that "strangers and others who
wish to purchase a Clay paper must be on
their guard—i. e. put on "Safety Guards."
t But the most vexatious difficulty the ed
hors have had toericounter, was, the Swart
wowing propensity of a number of thei r
carriers; no less than eight of them having
neglected to make any r Aurns of the pa—
pers sold, and another took a lot of papers
rom the offi , :e and "secreted them in art
alley."
Although no eff)rts were made to sup.
press the Post—or if made they proved un
successful, yet we can clearly understand
how extremely unpleasant these difficul-
ties must be to the Messrs. Macs., in the
commencement of their enterprise, and ,ve
sincerely hope that in a few weeks their
prospects will wear a fairer aspect in spite
of the tricks of the juvenile Swaitwouts.
To the Purpose.
The Gazette, to prove that the Post is
an anti-tariff paper, quotes from an Amer ,
ican Manufacturer dated ten years ago.
The Post has been printed thirteenidays,
and neither of its editors had any thing to
do with the Manufacturer when the article
quoted from it was penned! you must
come nearer the point, Deacon White.
[l:=F:An Iron Steamer of dOO tong, called the
"Guadalope" nailed from Liverpool on the 10th of

Messrs. Editors:—l was somewhat sur
mised to see that after the continued discus
sion of Mormonism in the Chronicle, you
should already, in the infancy of your' un
dertaking, begin to fill the columns of the
Post with dry and uninteresting articles
from the pen of one of the Mormon Proph
ets, and from that of an antionymous scribbler
probably the a ame who wrote for the Chron
icle.
If it is the intention of this discussion to
put down Mormonism, I for one think it is
going to have a.very different effect; by no
ticing such a humbug, you bring it before
the peo7le, and bring an otherwise obscure
and contemptible alledged religion into
public view, and at once destroy the very
object of your opposition.
It is not my intention to enter the arena
of mormon discussion, and I leave it to
your good sense whether the columns of
your paper might not be better and more
usefully occupied
We would inform "A Subscriber" that
we have no intention to revive a discussion
of Mormonism; the subject is as dry, stale
and unprofitable to us as it can possibly be
to any of our readers.—Eds.

Fr HORN'S TEA•RERRY TOOTH WASH—.B New
Invaluable Remedy.—The extreme beauty of the
Teeth, their indispensable use, and the frequency of their
decay, has led to many Inventions for their preservation;
yet how to pre• serve them in a state of health an pristine
beauty, to the latest periods of existence, was entirely
unknown until the discovery of the above invaluable
preparation. It forms a pure tincture composed of veg
etabie ingredients, and is possessed of the must delicious
odor. It eradicates tartar from the teeth, removes spot s
of incipient decay. polishes and preserves the enamel, to
which it gives a pearl like whiteness, and, from its disin.
feeling properties, possesses the virtue of giving sweetness
to the breath.
As an ...hitt Scorbutic, the Gums also share in its trans.
