In consequence of the multiplication of slop shops in

thatno establishment thatadvertiscs caste ra made Clo

FOR SAFETY,
Travellers should select Boats provided with
Evan's Safety Guards for preventing Explosion of
Steam Boilers. •
IT would be well for the traveling community to
bear in mind that their security depends entirely
upon their own encouragement of boats that have or
may be at the expense of procuring the above appara
tus. And that every individual making such selec
tions is contributing towards a general introduction of
tot invention admitted by all men who understand the
principles of the Steam Engine, to be a sure preventa
tive against those dreadful disasters. You have cer
tainly, in the hundreds of explosions that have already
taken place, their almost daily occurrence, and the
thousands of lives that have already been lost, a suffi
cient warning, and inducement to make inquiry fur a
SAf,ty guard Boat, and in evety case to give it the
preference. They have went to an additional expense
that your lives may be secure. Ought you not therefore
to meet them with a corresponding degree of liberality,
and bv your preference show that you appreciate their
laudable endeavors to stop this awful sacrifice of }ln
man life. They ho not charge more than other boats;
their accommodations in other respects are equal, and
in many cases superior, and as there is one leaving
Pittsburgh every day, why will you run any risk, when
it is so completely in your own power to avoid those dis-
aster.
All boats marked thus [*] in the List of Arrivals and
Departures, in another part of this paper, are supplied
with the Safety Guard.

Zl)e Daitn Morning epos
Frointhe London Pim&
MARRIAGE OF THE PRINCESS AUGUSTA.
Wednesday, the 28th of June, will be a renew' abie
day in the annals of this country. Victoria—H*lMM
bless her—wascrowned on it in 1838, and the Princes*
Augusta of Cambridge, was married on it in 1843. Oa
the latter auspicious morning everything was gap imi
'all nature, so pathetically alluded to in the English
version of La Somnambula, was astir at a very early
hour. The sun, who always keeps his time, got out Or
his water bed at exactly forty-six minutes past three,and
the Thames was even more active, for we find that it
was high water at London-bridge so early as thirteen
minutes after rwo in the morning.
The Hereditary Duke of Mecklenberg Stets, who
was on this occasion the happy man, is heir ai the
House of Mecklenberg, whose chief is one of the band
, of royal pensioners whom England has the honor to sup
' port. Strelitz is an independent dukedom, with a de
pendent duke. Its resources are public and privatebe
nevolence; its territory extends over a tract, which in
size and in bad roads, may be compared to Rutland; its
population is about twice as large but not half 80
table, as that of :Nlecklenberg, square; its chief=
consists in nothing particular, its revenue is purely nO
- its army is divided into a cavalry about half as
numerous as Patty's Stud, and an infantry comprising
about as rainy as were used in the as touriabig proces
sion of the Jewess at Drury-lane Theatre. On extntkOr•
dinary occasions, such as reviews, supernumeraries are
hired at half a thaler for the rehearsals and a dialer for
the performance; but in the present state of she &relit
: zian coffers such an extravagance is not often restated_
to.
It is gratifying at least to know that the Princess Au
gusta of Cambridge can have no mercenary motives in
{incepting the hand—a thoroughly empty one—of the
illustrious scion of the House of Nlecklenberg. His "
royal highness "gives her all he can, he cut no mare:
though it must be allowed that the "offering" is as
"poor," - in a pecuniary sense. as any that the poetcould
have imagined.
In conformity with the old doctrine, that tifiectioncan
not masticate hollyhocks and digest dahlias,
or in oth
er words,that"love cannotlive on flowers," the English
Parliamenthas kindly condescended "to gild the refined
gold" of the T'rincess Augusta's affection with an anon
by of three thousand a year, so soon as her mynas*
father shall retire from those hooks which we sincerely
hope he is not destined for many years to pop of from.
We must, however, describe the wedding. We have
already said that the sun rose from his water bed at an
early hour, an example which was followed by the
bridegroom, who prepared to dress for the wed/ling.
His master of the wardrobe, who is also comptrelkeof
themaster of the leather portmanteau and groom oldie
hat-box, wan in attendance with the insignia of irissari
-0113 office's. The Hereditary Duke havit.g tried Row
laud's Maccassar, and had an audience ufhi mself in the
glass of the 3,lechian dressing case, repaired to Bucking
ham Palace, which had been the spot fined for the wed
ding.
The preparations were, of coarse, on the grandest
scale, and Queen Victoria had spared no expense Ledo
-- honor to her cousin _Augusta's nuptials. The reigning
Duke of Meckienberg was fortunately enabled to visit
this country. He wore the white seam of the German
order of princes, and was looking remarkably well--as
all annuitants on this country generally contrive to look.
The Duke of Cambridge was in high glee upon this oc
casion, and joked Strelitz senior on the portion brought
by Strelitz junior.
The ceremony was performed in the usual style d
royalty, and when the prelate who performed the office
(.meto the words, "With all my wordly goods I thee
endow," the Duke of C a mbridge, who always disks
out loud, kept up a running accompaniesent—"Well,
that's capital!--wordly g oods, indeed! I should like to
see some of 'eta," and other pleasant observatieng
which, as Strelitz senior and Mecklenberg junior, mei
ther of them understand English very well, were suppo-.
sod by the father and son to be a gush of fervent eja.ottla
tinns from the father of the bride, invoking happiness
on the heads of the newly-married couple. At the end
of the ceremony the lieppy pair set out for Kew to
spend the honey-moon. The bride's wardrobehad been
tonveved there already, and young Strelitz bed arran
ged to have his carpet bar left at Kew-bridge, where it
was met by his royal highness's Lord of the Luggage,
who carried it to the palace. The village of Kew was
of course a scene of festivity. Triumphal arches of ev
ergreens had been erected at the cost of the inhabi
tants. One tasteful design to de honor to the happy
pair particularly struck us. It consisted of an arch of
twine, carried across the road of the main streetof Kew
b v means of nails fixed into the walls of the houses on
either side of it. In the centre of the string there was
tied a moss rose and a lily, intended to be emblematical
of union, but the twin:: had cat off the top of the li)y,and
there was only a stall: remaining.
The Duko of Cambridge behaved very liberally to
the po ,r in the neighborhood; and Su-elitz senior gave
away on the occasion—his eldest son—a piece of mu
nificence in every way worthy of Mecklenburg.
JAMES YATES
The Boston Atlas, a rank Whig paper, speaking of
the late Alleston, an American painter of groatcelebri
ty, says he would have, "degraded his genius down to a
partisan painter of cotton bags, and ignoble hatchery of
unprotected soldiers by safely ensconced rillel=ioMaLs
he had painted the battle of New Orleans. If we were
unacquainted with the extravagance of party spirit in
which the whips frequently indulge, we shoidd be in
credulous that such a sentiment as this could flow from
an Amziricannewspaper. An "ignoble butchery," to
fire upon mercenary soldiers who cams to ravage our
fields, plunder our property and burn our dwellings! It
would have been a noble act, consequently, if General
Jackson and his men had run away from their lines
and refrained from defending their country! Theasser
tion about cotton bales is utterly unfounded—they
were not used for the purpose of protection from their
enemy's shot, o;icept on the right, where they stormed
the material of which the bastion (unfinished at the
moment of attack) was chiefly composed—Kind the
men who routed the English army. so far as &am be
ing safely ensconced, were no more protected by the
ditch and rampart, than if they had stood on the open
plain. It is well to bear in mind also that General
Jackson's force at the lines on tha oth of January a
mounted to little upwards of 3700 men, whilst the en
emy counted 12,000. It is a strange, unaccountable cir
cumstance, a phenomenon almost. which posterity will
hardly believe, that there are Americans born and bred,
who anxiously seek occasion to undervalue the import
ance of the immortal victory of New Orleans, to bedim
its lustre, and decry the glorious old chief under whose
auspices it was gained, niZrely because he gained if.
If these people expect to obtain the good opinion of the
English by this unnatural conduct towards their own
countrymen, they arc wofully mistaken.
Lord Ashburton was in the Senate Chamber when
Mr. Conrail was delivered of his stupid and rancorous
effusion a gainst the bill to repeal General Jackson's
fine: and tough a diplomatist and a lord, he bad not
sufficient command of face to hide the contempt and
disgust which felt within . , and he afterwards, as we
learned from good authority. expressed his astonish
ment. that any member of 'Congress, and especially one
from Louisiana, shoull oppose so mere an act of justice
to a General who had rendered such high services to
his country. Lord Ashburton felt tike a man on that
occasion, and looked at Mr. Conrad as if he would
have said—l am sorry to see so young a roan with so
cold ahcart. If Jackson were an Englishman, and
had served England as he served America, the bill yon
are now discus'ing would not be for refunding a thou
sand dollars unrighteously extorted from" him, but it
would contain a grant ofhtilf a million of pomsds ands
nukedocn.—N. O. Courier.
