Malone. Yet it should be remembered 1 hat debts which in Europe would be deemed light, would here cause our psi), pie to stand aghast. We are not used to being ground in the mill of heavy taxation. But the people•of Europe have been so long debt ridden and down—trodden, that the itighteat burden taken from their shoulders seems to them as great an alle. Fiation he the payment of the entire debts of many of our most heavily indebted States, would seem to their population. It cannot be remarked too often, when we are disposed to undervalue the pre. eminent blessings of our government, or disposed to denounce as robbery, even our comparatively moderate taxation. that it would be wise to recur to the condition of even the most favored na , ions of the old world. Cross the ocean to Europe—tra verse that land in every direction—witness her half-clad peasantry—her mud howls for her people, and her pa'aces for her ru lea: Go to her manufactories, the famed seats other greatness and hor power, and there witness her half•atarved, blear-eyed. area deformed laboter3—not overlooking the moral blindness and ianorance eleven her medium classes,—and then, on the eiMtrary, mark the officers and menials of government pampered, amid this vast la ser brae of human woe. After these things have A been seen, let him return here, and even die" worst of our misgovernment will seem lrke good government; and we doubt not, even such a one woul•1 sat•, ..wh e t we have, we priv: not to the worth."

SMITH, lEDITOISS •t:DTROPRtKTORw THURSDAY, JUNE 15 0.A3 The Rail [triad. We ara much gratified at the result of the Rail Road election on '['u ';l ,y, and hope that - it 'will be 'the means of induriog capitaliststo come up at ooze and subscribe the amount of stock required to ensure tl e completion of the improvement. The gentlemen who were most active in-getting up the projcct of a Rail Road, are , among the wealthiest of our citizens, and from the zeal manifested in the prelim ifiary movements, and their industry in col !acting 'information and facts to show the great utility df such an improvement, the public were led to believe that they would be the foremost in subscribing for stock - when the books were opened. But we re. grata.° say that public expectation was die appointed. The books were opened, but nest of the large .property holders visited the room of Committee, and at the end of' three days the Commissioners adjourned, without having received the name of one .of tae wealthy citizens who it was expec.'

The Alrxandria Gaz tad would have the subset bed. says: 'The Custom House in this place, We understand that the principal reason was we understand, theroup lily renovated, assigned for this unexpected coniuct,is,that no Saturday last, by the removal of all the the books were opened prematurely, and subordinate officers appointed by the Har• that the effort to procure individual sub- rison administr,ition.'

We would not say or do anything that would throw an obstacle in the way of the Rail Road; we have been among its warm. -eat' friends since the question was first broached, but we would be derelict in our duty as public journalists if we did not • notice any indications that looked like throwing the whole burthen of responsi bility on the ci y. To protect the pea -- platform this, the Councils should not con,. scusemate the subscription of s3oo,ooo,until it is-clearly ascertained that the amount re, quiradfrom individual subscription can be raised, And that the large capitalists, who were moat anxious for this undertaking, and who urged so eloquently its utility and adioantages, are willing to incur a small portioh of the expense of its construction• If these men will not subscribe, it will be worse than useless, it will be unjust to in_ Ire the city further in the matter, and - 1 011010 2 ., writiope the Councils will now pause until they know the amount of individual stock that will be taken. If the large property holders will now tame forward liberally with their subscrip Ikea. the airy can then perform het part, btu awn this is ascertained, we do not be' tiara that any of those who voted for the tat, Tuesday would desire that the Coun. ails should proceed any farther in the mat ter. If they hold back, we must reluctants ly infer that they are desirous to plunge the city into an enterprise in which they will risk nothieg them.elves, and make the iPe FirCt tal c - paysr:olleftey the expensed of anivn. prostit, the_ principal benefits of which will acciiiito the large property holders. The wholeamount of stiiek should be subscribed befo're the city is furtbei com mitted in the project. By the terms of the charter,. we believe no individual or cor poration, it matters not how large their a mount of stock may be, can have more than thirteen votes in managing the busioess of the Company. By ibis regulation it would be in the power of fourteen individuals whose aggregate stock would fiat exceed $7BO, to control the vote of the city of Pius• burgh, and to make whatever disposition they might desire of her subscription of $300,000! This is a difficulty that we hope the Councils will duly consider, and that they will take the proper steps to guard against such a contingency. We do not make these remarks with the s:ightest desire to place difficulties in the way of a speedy corn mencement of the Rail Road, but we write under a full con viction that it is our duty to watch the in terests of the lic, t t give the alarm when t here is any pri.hihilitr of their invovi.d in heavy rcsponsitii ivies for the heu.tit ..f a few inditiduale. The Ruff Road By the returns of the election held yes day to decide as to whether a tax should be levied to pay the interest en the Vail Road Loan, it will be seen that the measure has carried by a largo majority. We con gratulate the friends of the Road on this auspicious result. Every conceivable obstacle was thrown in th way of the sue• ce,zs of t h;s project by Its opnems. They re act.vely engag in every ward—meetin : zs were held. and addresses made, in which the tenors of hi 4 h taxation were magnified to the extent of i.na,!rna lion. In spite of these 4: Tort., th- majori_ ty for the Tax very nearly rea • ht-d 600 votes. There can be doubt that this v f .t e is full a n d eone!usire as to the wi-hes of the people. If there had been a large r turn out, the urikrity would have heel larger. There might, perhaps, be room to doubt the correctness of this position, if the ef forts of the enemies of the Tax h d been less enerrtic But they left no means s ith in their reach untried, they were signally defeatcd, and we hope the Council kill construe the result as unquestionable struction from the people to subscribe 5300,000 to the proposed Road—and that they will do so the momont stiff) ient stock is subscribed by individuals to complete the work. I Electione. —We will eoon bavo busy times recording the roeults of elections.— ' They will shortly take place in Louisiana, Indiana, Tennessee, Illinois and North Carolina. In the first named State, the I election takes place in the, first week in July, and is for members of Congress. In • diana and Tennessee besides members of Congress, Govo rnors are to be chosen. In diana, Goy. Bigger (W.) is a candidate fur re-election, and is opposed by Mr Whit■ carob, Democratic. The election takes place in Angus', and by the middle of that month we shall know the result. The election in Tennessee also takes place in Aogu , t. In inerrOers of Congress are to be chosen also in August. The election in North Carolina is for ineinbers of Congress. But the grandest struggle will be in our own county; the contest of 1840, would not make a patching for the bustle that will take place in 1843. Perhaps there was a little more noise and foolery on that acca sion than we will have this fall, but the bittetness of feeling with which the coons fought the democrats then, cannot be co rn . pared with the rancour that now exists be. tweet] the whigs and bluenoses.

Accordingly he went to the man who kept the stable and told him, when the gentleman took the horse he would pay the bill. 'Very good,' said the gentleman, 'I un— derstand you.' Accordingly, in a short time, the country gentleman went to the stable, and ordered his horse to be got ready - . The bill was of course presented. 'Oh,' said the gentleman, 'Mr so and so, my relation, will pay this.' Very good, sir,' said the stable keeper, 'please to get an brder from Mr —. it will be the same as money,' The horse was put up again, and down went the country gentleman to the Long Wharf, where the merchant kept.
