'':-, seeding* in a late Keystone, th4t Mr Darsie has . Introduced an amendment to the Canal Hill which fal weed the Houle. The amendment merely de. ,tiltleseethat attire next October election, and there after, the Canal Commissioners shall be chosen . by the people. r -Mr. Darele deserves credit fur thus stripping the giestion of electing Canal Commievrioners of all Ettruninius matter v. high might endrin2er its sue .. etas. such as giving immediate power to elect a 1 „ canal board to the Legisla ure, &c. [ley and all 4 : - dispute it would be an extension or the democratic principle to give the choice of the Canal Com- Inhaionera directly to the people, and we rejoice that Mr Darsie has hro't the issue before the Le gislature. No man who claims to be a democrat, who admits the competency and the right c 1 the people to select their servants of every grade, can Meet to the emendment. We hope it may re • ive every democratic vote in the Legislature. ctaig and the interests or Pitti•buteh. Ater two weeks writhing, Craig has at *ivied to reply to the charge made Nona him in the Post, of uttering in the House, what he must known to have been false in relation to the amount of business transacted in the article of halt by the mer -45hantd of Pittsburgh. In our article, we • ateted on the authority of those who heard bisepeeeit in favor of trOsfering the Erie Extension to a company, that Neville B. -sr i dif aig had declared that not more than one hundred barrels of salt were shipped from this city annually. This was the main charge, end every one would surpose that in making a reply,Craig would make an at - - tempt to explain it in some manner; to show that he had not uttered a wilful and gross falsehood agail..t the commercial in• Wrests of his "native place." But in look ing nyer his column of billingsgate,we seek in vain fur one word of denial or of expla ation. lie strings out a long tirade of abuse against the Post,charactetistic of his filthy mind, but carefully ovoids the slight eat denial of the charge. Since he has had the folly to attempt to jaatify his treachery to his constituents by a'veaort to personal abuse of Ourselves, we illsh him to understand that los bullyinv blitckguardism shall rot anwser in tttii case. Lie shall speak to the charz,e, or stand be fore the public a convi , qed lilellrr of his "natjve place." We now repeat the charge, that Neville 13. Crai-2, declared in t'ie House of Representatives, that the mer. chants of Pittsburgh (lid not ship more than one hundred barrels of salt annually, and we dare him, or it o thing of the Cii-izette, the dirty little conduit through which the (Ad- libeller vents his abuse, to deny the charge. The reneg.ide mason ofthe Gaz.?.tte,who appears to be anxious to rival his ma-ter in falsehood, says, in a preface to Crig's letter. ''We do not think the editors of the Post themselves believed what they wrote and published." We will satisfy his -doubts by stating that we did believe what +we wrote and published; we believe it still. and since lie has attempted to justify Craig, ..4e ask him to prove to the people of Pittsburgh that Craig was faillifellv rep resenting, his cons.ituents, or evince a feeling in favor of our met cantile interest when he asserted that not mare than one hundred barrels of salt were shipped from this city annually. We want na skulking of the question, and are de:ermined that Craig and his tool shall have this matter rung in their ears until thr.y can explain ~': ~~ it, or acknowledve mi.q representing animp,liqui item in the husi fleets of Piltsburgh. Suicide.— A man inancd Sherwood, one of the oldest residents of Wf.shington township. Eric county, ccin:nitted suicide on Friday week by cutting his throat in a horrid manner. Professor krona , n, who h now lecturing in this city, mentions a fact in the course of his explanations of the formation of the human body, which he deems of much improtence to persons who intend , to commit suicide. He proves to a demonstration that by ins ,, rting the point or a small penknife in the jugular vein, in the neighborhood of the ear, life can be de stroyed with more certainly than by ma king the deepest gash across the windpipe with a razor. He considers this mode moth preferable to any other, and com mends it to ell who are determined to com mit suicide, and who would prefer doing the deed in a scientiric manner.

The citizens must he very liberal supporters of newspapers, or else the public pickings far exceed what we supposed them to be. West India Earthquake.—Advices from Havana to the 23d ult., states that a Bri. tish steamer off the Island of Antigun ex• perienced the shock of Bth Feb. so severe as to retard het progress—saw the hills in motion on the shore, and one island dis appeared altogether! At Havana, business continued dug, and wssels were avit) 4 for New Oilcans in ballast, for freights. einother Riot.—The Corkonian and Connaught lab rers on the Lachine Cana I have had another riot. The militat v were called out, bat did not fire. In the rio t one man was shot, another received a hall in the head, severallnjuiekind two frost bitten. On Friday the disgra :eful fi,zht was again resumed—the Corkoniaris tried ao seize the powder maeazine—the rnilita. ry were sent for, repaired to the scene, and put down the disturbance. The Con- naught men being 'nferior in numbers are said to have stifiare l severely—many fam ilies have lost their all. Rum was at the bottom of the dispute. If some of our re formed dtuitkards who have reclaimed so many by their speeches in Temperance Hall, would beset them, we would hear of no mote tilts. .11 Perilous - Situation.—A man named Lowry in Hagerstown, in crossing a pail• ling fence, missed his hold, and fe•l in such a manner that one of his feet caught in the pailings and left him suspended in a most painful and perilous condition. Ile fore assistance came to hand. he had en• tirely lost the p'uwer of speech, and had he remained a few minutes longer, he must inevitably have died. Repentance.—The Harrisburgh Key stone in repel!iog a charge mide against its democracy by the Reporter, which con tained an insinuation that it was willing to transfer the democratic party to the pres ent administration says, "We once for all declare that the. Keystone distinctly and uriegniyocally REPUDIATES each and every manner of alliance with any and every party, other than the true and genu ine dem icracy of the country." This is explicit, and Founds something like the sen:iments uttered by the Keystone "a long while ago." Two negro prisoners in Philadelphia, while on their way to prison, nn Tuesday night, attempted to commit a brutal out• rage on the persons of two white women, who were in the !erne covered cart, or van in v Inch prisoners are conveyed.

Kis wife is also a believer in this infam ins and licentious fanaticism, and amng the deluded foll.)wers are twenty or thirty families residing in Chester coun ty, Pa. The most frightful crimes have been committed by some of these mid - men. tut it is hoped that the conviction and imprisonment of three or four will rouse the others from the delusion. The details as given on the trials are altogether unfit for publication. They are said to throw Joe Smith's `spiritual wife' docs :tine al!ogether in the shade. The desti ny of man is onward ! roll( more apprentices on the Som.rs have been discha7ged from c mfinement. A long.

Race horses are assessed 10 d dlars and race courses 20 Jolla! s, in Alabama. This is the way to pay off the State debt, Hurrah for lowa!—The editor of the lowa Reporter recently flogged a member of the Legislature. That was good for him.

The following chapter of blunders and contradictions is contained in one para. graph of the letter of Mr. ' Lobby," the Hat risburgh con respondent. of the Gazette published on last Monday: " By the Law authorising the construc " lion of the State Tracks, as specific " charge amounting to 50 cents over the " Pottage and 75 cents over the (;alum.

" This is all the charge that is made by " them on these Trucks instead of about 85,00 whi c h would he charged if the " same rates :% ere taxed on Burden cars." Ergo, the Trucks are charged $4,25 less thA n the Burden cars. " The charge on Section Boats owned by the State w 111 be not less than on " Borden cars." We wonder if Mr. '•Lobby" knows what he i 4 writing about. • Nh4t St3te Hon. James Buchanan.—Some of the FP(l,.ral papers are trying to question the propriety of the course or Mr. Buchanan during the I , oe war. By way of reply,the American Sentinel says: '•We know something about the early history of our ditinguished Senator, as well as present high standing in the country; and we take (rave In say of him, that in all the stations he has 11-1:1 from the day he entered the Legislature of Pennsylvania, up to the present time, he has, nn all occa , ions. proved himself t n be a patriot of pure morals, and of the first order of talents. We have watched his course for the last twenty-five years, and hesitate not to say, that we know of' no public man in Pennsylvania who ha: more thoroughly met the expectations r f his friends, than Mr. B. As a Stnator he stands in the very front rank. No Penn sylvanian visits Washington city, who does nut feel himself delighted. - when he sees for himself the distinguished position that Mr. Buchanan occupies among the Sena tors of the Republic."

A Dog Story The Troy Whig relates the following anecdote of a Newfoundland dog. "On a certain Sunday after church the family were assembled in the drawing room, and every member of it, with one exception, occupied in leading. The dog, a'ter making a reconnoisance 14 . 1 he party, proceeded Of his own accord to the libra ry, and, taking down a book from the shelves, returned and presented,it to the individual who was unprovided with that convenient instrument for whiling away the long quarter of an hour before dinner:' It is said that the western editor, who was kissed by two girls at the same lime, has nearly recovered from the effects of the collision. He is now able to sit up, and it is thought he will be able to return to his business shortly, unless be is attack ed a second time. A man who owns a season ticket on the railroad, goes to Boston twice as often as Ile his any business—so as to make his fare come cheap lie do°sn't live here !
