Sr:C . lll2qt Boers.—The success ofi ho section Boats
dttM the past season has convinced every one that in
u rttiirne that, will be the only system of transporta
tion that will bemsed on the Main Line of our improve
menu. The.want, however, of a sufficient number of
reiGks on The Allegliony• Portage Rail Rona, lias cau
sed - setious inconvenience to many owners of - Section
Boats,,durh.g the past season, and it should admonish
tha.poople of the State,and particularly the citizens of
Pittsl,urgh, to ad:pt prompt measures to inform the
Leestatrm of the incmvenience. It would be well to
•
cal a public meeting at an early day, and make ar
rangements to memorialize the Legislature on the sub
ject, and havean appropriation authorized.

HON. WM. WlLKlNS.—Speaking of our Represen
tative elect, the Clarion Republican says:
) This gentleman who was elected in t' :e district of
which Whig Allegheny rompose4 n part, [the whole]
toile Congress of the United States, has been highly
reiotnmended by the democratic papers of the State,
as a suitable person to be elected Speaker of the next
of R-presentatives. The overwhelming, vote
received Ly Mr W in that decidedly whig district, is
evtdence enough of his pertcnal popularity and qualifi
cAions to serve in that station. "We hope that the
ge'penti expression of public send neut which has al
ready gone ford) in his favor, will be received as Zll/ evi
dence of the satisfaction his election would give."
•
From the faverable 'flannel in which the su.o.ition
of , Judge WILKINS ' election to the Spenkership has
hcbn received, we feel confident that nothing . would
givi?.,greater satisfaction to the party throughout the
Staab; than. the selection of our distinguished Repre
sentative for that station.

RI~OSDIEST OF Elc-Gov ERy OR KING, OF RHODE:
/3:iaiki - Tilft Boston Times of Thursday, intimates
thaV6overnnr King is nom in prison! charged with a
criMikif - felmiv; with plundering an institution whose
prvpotx, li ad been confided to his care. This King is
thalakdokof the party in Rhode Island, who would im
priaownind hang poor, honest men, for do ring to claim
th4tivifeges of American citizens.
The NO Regisur indulges in tLe fuflowiug
refiettions on this event:
DORR AND Coy. KiNo.—How different now
_areihe icisitions of these two men! Bosh are in the
same prison, the one for advocating and endeavorine
to maintain the rights of the people as defined by th'e
greiffelytrter of American liberties; the other as a de-
fauliel:to a money institution with which he was con
nected. Thomas Wilson Dom stands before tins world
. with a character 'unspotted and irreproachable, guilty
..oulY of the offence of sustaining the same principles
_which were sustained by Jelin Hancock and 'Thomas
jefter3'9n; for which he is made to suffer the penalty
vhlerh:would have fallen upon them, had thev
b een

gmiertiment. P,airmel Ward King stands up charged
Cvitli'aVritie of felony—with plundering an institution
whApipperty had been confided to his care. Dort- is
surtianded by warm friends, and the mention of 'his
narriili."pearts the blood quicker through the heart of ev
ery Freeman. King is alone. aided bynone, pitied by
none, and an object of contempt to all."
rirA bill to divorce Mary Ann F. Randolph from
her hu . shaml, Stelle F. R.andolph,passed the Council of
Aew:,Jeriey on Friday. The petition set forth that
Randolph wasa Baptist preacher, that they lived to
getheria peace and harmony. having several children,
up i 0.1.841., when Randolph wont away with a woman
—the; he wrote back a letter (also read) stating that
it witalrot his intentionto return, as he had been en
tra4ifed hy'a Miss Van Wagoner, and that rather than
ratlifir to Is:ls:nit to an exposure, he had determined
to leave hi. ffancily and his home forever.
NtICIIIGAN.—The news from this State continues
to come gloriously-in.- MP -whig4, with characteristic
recklessness, plhyud the game of "brag" very strongly
befdft 616 election, and talked extensively of their ca.
re
peCteq t.riumpli, which they said was to 'pave the way
for iletery Clay in 1844.' They have been beaten in
crest* totinfyheard from, and it is probable they are
defetaled'in every county in the state. We fear they
haviPtie their "paving" badly, and that if Clay is the
coon r c ' undidate in '44, he will have to travel over a
migkity .rough road through Michigan.
'Bather Mathew lately stated in London that be
htuiteceited letters from the magistracy of Liverpocl
amtlitanchester, where 140,000 persons had taken the
plech,e , , stating, that already an dmmense diminution of

A WAR HORSE
I had a black, savage horse, named Barbary, which
was sold to me by Lieutenant Strenowitz, a very gal
lant Gorman officer. honorably mentieeed is rapier's
history. ills crimes and misdemeanors had been
manifold; but ho was a showy animal, of a glossy
black, and aztrong, active, aativetiact horse,.in the
fullest sense of the word. Yet, on more than' one oc
casion had he so ungenerously behaved. Oat the onier
to slay Mtn was on the point of brine. issued. °acts,
when I visited his stall, and put my hand on his neck
to caress him, he seised me by the breast with his
teeth; and if I had not made a desperate struggle to
escape, and porrimelled him well with my fists afloat
the eyes,but especia • ifmy vestand s •t had not
given way, he would, in all probability, have dragged
me under his fore feet, and killed me outright: 1 had '
the marks of his hroad teeth on my breast bane for
I three weeks. When my servant was showing oaf this
I animal in the horse-market, an elderly French gentle
man was struck with his appearance, and asked his a::,e
I price. Ile then moved• maid Oita; scanning his
l and point!! critically; and afterwards made rite men w
l trot, and canter him. Thisordstl being passed saris,

and after a long meditative pinch from his snuff-box,
proceeded toinspect his mouth Barbary had hither
! to undergone these liberties with forbearance and eina-
Dimity; but, when this lust freedom was taken with his
person. he uttered a fierce veil, seized the poor man by
the shoulder and proceeded to worry him as a terrier
would a rat. The crowd ran to the rescue. sticks and
, tones rained on Barbary, and he was obli4ed to drop
his prey before he had committed actual homicide.—
[ r coarse, all chance of sale for that day WWI over, the
wounded e',.'ritleman talked of getting him shot by the'
anthmtity of the Mayor, but Jonathan Wild jumped nn
his back, the crowd opened right and left, and he was

man-eater to a sponish capitraz of muleteers for two
doubloons, thrilled' he was worth tell or twelve. lie
soon commenced his tricks with new loader, but
he met with his equal in the biting department. These
hardy follows are aredstemed to forority rts well as

subdue them. The lag tinr• I raw Mr. Barbary, he
