OTHER REASONS, and FAR MORE
IMPORTANT' ONES WHY PRESI..
DENT TYLER SHOULD BE ELE -
VATED BY THE - PEOPLE TO THE
PLACE WHICH HE NOW HOLDS
BY THE WISE COMMANDS OF A
- NEVER ERRING PROVIDENCE
* Look to the course which Mr. Tvler
has chosen to take during his long pnliti
cal. career. Has he not been honored by
the people of that proud and unwavering
State, Democratic' Virginia, with all the
honors in their power: has he not, on a
former occasion, returned to the hands of
his fellow citizens; an office received by
their hands, which he could not hold with
out either disrespecting the will of his man
dators, or the opinion's entertained by him
self, is he not the only solitary statesman
of modern age. who from the beginning
..of his political life to the very minute of
this hour, has always though, a U. States
Bank unconstitutional? has he not always
been considered as a scholar of the Jeffer
lonian school, and why should he not de
-nerve an elevation by the People; when
Providence has marked him already, as
one who deserves such an elevation'?
Pray, shall he he condemned for his Etc-.
-ceptatice of a nomination by the National
Harrison Convention? The maniresto of
Convention contain. , a deekration of
*nrtl'y of praise and imita±nt!
and whateiter the secret principles of the
leaders of that Convention were, John Ty..
let; had - nothing in Common with them.—
He thought both political parties either
corrupted to the very Ilealat or gulled by
uttprintrprie leaders; he considered a
ehan4e a Gevetnment, as necessary as
the physician considered the change of air,
for his consurnpted patien', and what pat-
riot had not the same opinion ?
The Vice President is at once elevated ;
to the Presidential Chair; the very first
measure of his official career, is a strong!
lesson TO INTRIGUING OFFICE!
HOLDERS AND OFFICE HUNTERS,
and his veto of the National Bank was e
nough to deprive him forever of .the
support of the Whig party; he knew this
as well as any person did, and his.- natural
course, and that of every other politician,
would have born, to join the Democratic
party, anxiously waiting for him. He did
however, nut so: he signs the repeal of
the Sub-treasury bill, because the people
had acted on ttiat question; then he signs
the Bankrupt bill, and unites with his
whig enemies, the Van Buren party in
Congress. can any person doubt that Mr.
Tyler was not aware of the consequences?
Can any person dobbt that he k new only
too well that both parties would rare the
mar cry ag ins: him 1 Cel I airily wit.
Awl mere th7n this!, I ent , •rtain the sin
cere;opittioa that Mr. Tyler was rather a 1.
- verse to tlie passage of the bankrupt law,
'and would have vetoed it. had he not been
mish d by a too fine sense of honor. This
may sound singular, hut it is nevertheless
corre. t. The President had vetoed the
tank bill. The general cry was, that he
would unite with the opposition, and ev
ery
emu waited fir another veto on the
bankrupt hill. Stich was ttie p . w .i t ; on o f
Mr. Tyler, who wanted to be the people's
and not a party President.
AND LOOK TO 111 S COURSE
SINCE THEN. HAS HE NOT' AC
TED FEARLESSLY AND PATRI.
OT IC 3 Does he court the lavor of the
areat political leaders of tooth parties in
Congress 1 Does he bow beneath their
mighty influence? No, no; he walks with
the conscience of a good and honest ser
vant of the people —the walk which is
known from times of old; he throws
self into the arms of an intelligent people,
that they may decide fur themselves.
AND SHOULD A GRATEFUL
PEOPLE NOT RESPOND TO SUCII
A CALL? Pennsylvania, far known as
an honest,virtuous and noble State,will re
spond in due time. SHE BEGINS TO
CAST OFF THE SHACKLES OF
RECKLESS PARTY DISCIPLINE

The Proposed Rail Road
Our readers will observe that a public
meeting will he held at the new Cout I
House on Saturday next, for the purpose
of considering the proj-ct of constructing
a Rail road from Pittsburgh to Curnhi.r
berland. Since this matter was first spo
ken of, we have not heard a voice raised s
gainst its practicability, or its great neces
sity,for the purpose of preventing the whole
of the carrying trade, heretofore enjoyed
by Pittsburgh, from being turned into an
other route. But one opinion is express
ed of its necessity, ard all agree that no
other i.r provement will answer the pur
pose. The Mo tongahela Slack Water,
might for a portion of the year, bring the
trade to our city, but then for three months
every season it would be suspended by ice
aarl other obstructions, 4-that too, at a tin e
when the business season is just commenc
ing and the heaviest contrac's for trans—
portation are made, During the greater
Fart of the time that the Slack Water would
be available. our canals are open, and all
goo is from the east destined to pass thro'
our city, would come by that route. The
ntil ity of the WAdamized Road, is consid
ered by many very problematical, and the
eneral opinion is that it would n it be suffi
cient to secure to Pittsburgh, beyond the
reap ) of competition, the large amount of
business been drawn from us by the
.I,lml by the Cumberland Rail
ro lint not a doubt is entertained of
the entire stieci ss of a Rail road, such as is
proposed, arid the confidence of the citi.
zens are s•o goat in its utility, that if mat
tern were perfected fur its commencement s
the means could he raised immediately,
We understand that several gentlemen
are engaged in collecting information on
this subject, which will be laid before the
meeting on Saturday, and at the same time
the necessary steps will be taken to make
a practical start in the matter.

Atr-cious Murder of a Wont*ii.;
Nashville papers give the particulars of an an
p.ovoked murder committed in Putnam county in
that state,ou the pettrin of Mrs. Riney, It up
pears'that a man named Rowland maddened by
dritt!t, repeatedly threatened to Icill samebody,and
to carry out his threat, gut up at a late hour of the
night, and chased a lodger at his house b 3e
name of Sills, with an axe; but defeated in his at•
tempt he returned to the house and repeated Ws
threat, at which instant, all who were in the
house run out to make th it escape, Sills not hav
ing yet returned: but the poor unfortunat! Mrs.
Raney was overtaken about sixty feet from the
door, and murdered in the most henious manner
im , ginable. He Itoorked her down with the pole
of the axe, and then turnedthe edge with which
he severed the head from the body, cut one large
gash in her face, sunk tl e axe in her buck in two
plaees, and cut off the p dui. of One shou'der. Be
ing now well satisfied that h had completed his
bloody deed, he covered I er up with snow, threw
his axe in the fire, prepared fur his defence a num•
bet of clubs and handspikes, and bid defiance to
the State of Tennessee. lie was, however, arres
ted and brought before two justices of the peace
who committed hint to jail to await further trial
at the next term of the Circuit Court for Putnam
county. Such a fiend, s uch a devil incarnate
should be hung as soon as possible.
Good netvs for :11 Thanics.—The Bos•
ton Bulletin says:—Mechanics are likely
to be soon employed in this city, and at
good wages for their labor. We have
been informed by a contractor, that there
IA ill soon be a demand for all the unem
ployed masons, carpenters and other me
chanics, as contracts have been completed
for erecting something like one hundred
buildings in this city, du: ing the next six
months. We briefly notice this encoura,
aging sign of the times, amongst many oth•
era. to show that however loudly people
croak, they cannot stifle the merry soands
that ring from the mechanics tools.
Living Without Drink —Dr. W. A.
A lccut says that during the year 1842 he
drank nothing; and has not yet returned
to the use of drink. Once, in July, in
order to make an experiment, lie worked
hard at haying. The first day or two, be■
ing very hot weather, he fe•t a return of
thirst, which he allayed by gargling his
throat with water, and eating bread erum..
bled in water. After two days he felt no
more though he worked Fuird.—The ob•
ject of the experiment was to prove, for
the benefit of his friends to temperance.
that if our food is simple and plain, we
I need but very little drink. His diet was
breed, fruits and succulent vegetables.

and from our knowledge of the gentleman

whose names are, not includi.d, have from time, to
time laid their well grounded complaints before
the agents, as well as before the Board ofTrustecY,
without receiving any satisfliction nr redress frt m
either, we deem it proper and expedient, that a
more public expression of our sentiments be laid
before nor fellow citizens without delay.
And Whereas, The consumers of Gas Light as
furnished by the Pittsburgh Gas company, are
paving an exhorbit ant price for the same—Resolv•
ed, That the Gas Company are in duty hound to
reduce the price of Gas to a reasonable and
just rate, to compare with the present low price
of labor and of the materials that it is made of,
And be it further Resolved, That it is the sense
of this meeting, that the Gas company, (through
their agents,) were dilatory in the performance of
their duty to customers, and refuse, when request.
ed, to examine their metres and other fixtures
when called upon, with a view of ascertaining
their correctness—and they also tertian to give a
satisfactory explanation, why they most uniform
ly render hills of the largest amount—when th e
consumers pays the most attention to economy in
its nue!
Resolved, That nr,less the Pitts'urgh Gas corn.
piny comply with the tenor of their agreement
with the consumers, we have no faith in the die,
osition of the Board of Trustees to do justice to
those who have adopted that convenient mode of
lighting up their premises.
Resolved, The Gas company do not pay neces
nary attention to the 2nd end Sth articles of their
Rules and Regulations. Namely, article 2nd—
'Gila will be supplied by metre, and if the metres
shonld he found c'eficient, they will be immediate.
ly changed; and in case of their ceasing to regis.
ter, the quantity consumed will be ascertain•
•d by another metre, or by the amount charged
during a previous corresponding period.'
Article Bt&.—'The quantity of Gas consumed
will, in all cases. he ascertained in the manner
prescribed in the 2nd article of these Rules.'
Resolved. There is no better, more convenient,
or cheaper light than that of Gas, if the price of
it, and the fixtures were supplied at reasonable
rates, and by cor,ect measurement.
Resolved, We have no faith in the certainty of
metres in general; and that it is an uncertain
mode of measurement; and that the consumer is
liable, if governed by the indication of metres to
pay for a much greater quantity of gas than is ac.
tually consumed.
Resolved, That a committee be appointed to
examine the gas apoaratus invented, and for sale
by Mr. Walker at I*. John tioffer's, and also at
the 'A merican House.'
Resolved, That we will never submit to the
arbitrary measure of any company or aasocia•
tion, without first .using all necessary and proper
exertions in order, to relieve ourselves from what
we deem to be oppressive.
Resolved, That the proceedings of this meeting
be.published in one or more papers.
