JOTS /IC THE CITY OF BROTHERLY LOVE.
weo outrageous. riots have occurred among
.elphia firemen. On Sunday last, a 'Bahl
may that had been on a NiSit to New York,
Philadelphia on their way home, and, to
hospitable 'reception, we suppose, a cou
'hiladelphia Companies turned out and had
most bloody fights that has occurred in that
city fur some time past. The worst feature in their
conduct is that after the Baltimoreans had departed
for their home, the Philadelphia ruffians charged them
with being instrumental in getting up the fight!
The frequency of these riots among the Firemen of
Philadelphia is truly disgraceful to the city, and the
audacity with which they bid defiance to the laws,
shows that nothing but the most summary measures
will check their ruffianly proceedings. When their
brutaldispositions are loused, no powet in the law ap
pears to be able to protect the citizens from their ven
geance, and every new outrage but serves to show the
impotency df the policelo impede the progress of mob
law in its most alarming form. If more rigorous mea
l; ires are not speedily adopted towards the outlaws
the citizens of Philadelphia may as well abolish their
police and surrender the city into the hands of the ri
oting'Fite Companies.
NEXT Govzason. —The Freeport Columbian has
declared its preference for Fnescts R. SHUNR as
the next democratic candidate for Governor, and has
placed his name at the head of its columns.
A lady by the name of Lonsilg is lecturing - in
Philadelphia on Mesmerism and Phrenology.
EMIGRANTS TO LlllERlA.—Alluding to the embark
ation of 80 colored emigrants to Liberia, the Balti
more Clipper says that of the number, "39 were man
umitted by the Rev'cl Henry Goodwin, a Protestant
Episcopal clergyman, residing in Charles county.—
This gentleman was present on the occasion, and
manifested the greatest intereatin their behalf. They
were all well clothed, and present a clean and heal
thy Appearance. We believe there were onlnabout
eight men, the rest being women and children. Miss
Peggy Hodges, of Calvert county, at the time of her
death, about three years ago, manumitted 30 slaves,
28 of whom (3 men and 25 women end children) al
so sailed in this expedition. The remainder some
10 or 12, were free colored perseni, who, convinced
that their limited freedom here would be greatly in
c.eased by their emigration to Cape Palmas, have vol
untarily gone out, as we trust, to experience a full
realization of all their hopes and auticipations."
NKw• Yu R K-T he democratic majority in New York
is &oat 20,000. The riinjority in the Legislature will
be greater than it was last year; the clemw.rats have 26
of the 32 Senators, and 94 of the 130 members of the
House.
The result of the election has shown that there is a
settled democratic majority in the state. and that the
fe.leralists can have no hopes ofa chant,e in that quarter.
The result in New York and the other states, has in-
dicate.4l satisfactorily that no effort of our opponents
can defeat the democratic candiclate fur the Presidency
1841, and the consequence is tint in all the greet
, Ctirmmercial am:Manacle' mats of the country, business
:natters are' assuming a more cheerful and permanent
aspect, with a certainty that next year the government
will be - restored to the democracy. We learn from the
Plebeian that.the effect of this impression in New York,
has been an immense advance in the price of the stocks
.'., -- of that state; and of the United States, and in fact, its
~, 'influence in producing a general revival of confidence,
"''chews itself in an enhanced price of almost all public
:,'
'securities. The substantial interests of the country are
":.?always' saf. in the hands of the democracy, and all the
.:,-tinmea.ning [wattle, and slang of whig orators and
',presses about the "destructives" arid "locofocoism"
cannot satisfy the people to the contrary.
The lamentable results that followed the triumph of
I: ,,fetlemlism in 1840, taught the people a bitter lesson,
, but it was a lesson from which they derived much ben
..,•.-
e:it, as it served to show them that permanent prosper
:l sty could only be obtained under a democratic admin
tration, and all the efibrts, arguments and professions
' , f whiggery, were only made for the purpose of obtain
ng power to carry out the objects of a few leaders for
Ti. -rsonalaggtendisement,and without the slightest con
eration for the welfare of the people.

NEW Yorta.—Basinesa is becoming languid in New

COTTON FACTORY IN St. Louts. — lt will
by the following from the St. Louis Gazette, that a
Cotton Factory has been added to tho already incalcu
lable sources of wealth which
. St. Louis possesses:—
"The Era of yesterday, notices the fact that a cotton
factory is about to be put into operation, in a store
house situated on Chesnut street, between Main and
Water streets. The spindles and machinery will be
put up, and the whole soon under way. This is truly
a good move, and should be patronized. It will prob
ably be imitated by others, who will take fancy to fol
low tho fashion, us soon as it gets well into operation."

LOWELL, M ASS
Brother Jonathan of the 28th ult.. gives a very
amusing, interesting and valuable account of that large
and flourishing manufacturing city—of 25,000 people,
of whom 15,000 are females. Six thousand of them,
he says, are thei r own mistresses—bright eyed, modes r,
healthy and happy looking women,—girls, who labor
diligently and faithfully for their own maintenance,
and are able to earn, one week with another, through
the year, $1,75 per week, dear of board ! As a fact
remarkable in its character, Brother Jonathan notices
that among a population of 25,000 souls, ten thousand
of them are females who require no help, no guardian
ship, no looking after! They are people of character
and good habits, who earn their ova living, are able to
lay up, one year with another, from fifty to seventy-five
dollars each, upon an average; some doing a great
deal snore than that.
The capital stock of the incorporated companies at
Lowell, is $10,700,000; the number of mills 32; spin
dles, 94,333; looms, 6,045; females employed, 6,875;
males, 2,34 s—whose pay together costs considerably
more then all the females ! the average pay of a male
being 70 cents, clear of board, while that of the female
is only 29 cents !
The amount of cloth manufactured per week, is 1,-
331,450; bales of cotton consumed per week, 1,095 !
Total yearly production of cloth, 70,275,400 years!—
Cotton consumed yearly, 22,568,000 pounds; lumber
of bales, 56,940! Consumption of starch, 800,000
pounds per year; charcoal 600,000 bushels; tons of
anthracite coal, 12,300; gallons of oil, 80,189; &c
Besides the above mentioned, there are powder mills,
bleacheries; card and whip factories; boot and shoe
factories; flannel and blanket mills; paper mills;
planing in , chines; grist and saw mills, employing 500
hands and half a million of capital; with a machine
shop. able to furnish a mill complete, for five thousand
spindles, in four months, and employing from 1,000
to 1,200 hands. These are all facts, and show what a
manufacturing community muy do, and how it may ad
vance and flourish when well managed and skilfully
conducted.
GOLD MINES IN CUBA
A groat deal of interc!stseems to have been awakened
in Cuba on the subject of discovering and working
mines, occasioned by the facts published by Mr. Ra
mon de In Sagra, in his Physical and Statistical His
tory of that Island. The researches which he has
made, proves that gold, supposed not to exist in that
Island, i s to bs found in large quantities. The copper
mines that have been known since '1773, and which
since that period Lave furnished to the Government
bronzed cannon, now furnish a metal upon which is pla
ced the highestestimate. Already, in the eastern por
tion of the island,the working is very considerable, and
new companies are forming to engage ip a similar
branch of industry in the centre. Numberless discov
eries have been made in the vicinity of Puerto Principe,
and are enlisting the attention .of speculators.
Or There was good sleighing at Galena, on the 2d
inst. The steamer Ohio reports the weather very cold
at that place—and that she had difficulty in getting out
of Fever river on account of the ice on the 2d inst.—

passengers were taken through the sky lights, and
took shelter in the round house on deck, in which sit

took .off all the passengers, and all the crew, except
the. captain and four seamen, who remained with the
ship. The wind had lulled, and there was much less

passengers was saved, but the greater part belonging
to the cabin passengers, was left on board, floating
about the cabin. No hopes are entertained of sav
